CLASS 01: 1970 IUNIORS 1968 - 1969 As we investigate the junior year, we may recall fond memories of certain people in certain classes, waving the peace sign at one another in the back of the room. If we try harder, we can hear that melodious voice saying, Oh bub or o.k. chief. Yes, we still hold this certain someone close to our hearts, for this man kept our cafeteria clean with gestures to pick up papers on the floor. There was also another memorable teacher on the faculty that year. A brilliant act of levity was performed in his class twhich, I think, resulted in the poor man having a nervous breakdownlj. Our hero, Bobby Wal- ter, intrepidly sneaked out of the classroom and proceeded to go down-stairs and lay on his stomach' directly below the classroom. As the teacher walked in someone ran up to him and told him that Bobby had jumped out the window. Upon hearing this the teacher ran to the window and leaned out only to see Bobby lying on the cold earth. I-Ie left like a jet and re- turned with the dean only to find Bobby, who had raced back to the classroom, sitting angeli- cally in his seat. The dean came out with the most memorable line of the year at this point saying, Alright, which one of you clowns jumped out the window? We never did find out what happened to that teacher! Another big thing that year was student power. It was the year that the student senate really came into its own. The council president and the actor who was his veep got rid of suit jackets and ties. They set the foundation so that Tom Herbert could more easily run the school. I f r E., 1 N l I '43 7 al fd SENIGRS 1969 - 1970 We returned to find Brother Christopher and Brother Stephen were gone, having been re- placed by Brother Denis and Brother Francis. We learned that this year was tougher and more frustrating than any other. The student-faculty senate and the student-faculty forum made the student senators wonder just what their job was. Another problem that plagued the stu- dents was that of exemptions. Here, credit must be given to our principal who went along with the recommendation of the senate and resolved this problem for us. Man landed on the moon ahead of the predicted time, the jets won the SuperBowl, the Mets won the pennant and the Series, and to top it all off: those fantastic four-hundred graduated. It was a big year for tests and other similar things that rated just how smart we were. Many concerned students felt that this was the time for a reckoning. Yes! We all learned a little from black solidarity day. Everyone talked or had something to say about segregation and integration and like mat- ters-here at Loughlin. When the day was over, we had hopefully all drawn a little bit closer together as people. We also learned something by that visit to the school from members of the Students for a Democratic Society. Most of us agree by now that we should have listened to them at least. We didn't have to agree but whoever it was who started the idea to move them out should be given a speech on Constitu- tional principles. The class of '70 wasn't that different from previous classes, but it had wit- nessed and taken part in much progress and change. Maybe at this point we should think of somebody to thank But that will be hard be- cause there were so many along the line. So, Class of 70 thank whoever you wish, for it came to pass that these four hundred guys, less a few did graduate from Loughlin and enter the world they did with a greater knowledge of what to expect We had made it to the Age of Aquarius.
