We the tenth and last coeducational class to graduate from P.C.H., pauae to look back. The four years have passed too quickly, but we are content in the realization that our class has set and achieved its goal. We had our share of book carrying and shoe shining as freshmen in ' 5 8, but to us, high school was an exciting new adventure. A LANCE reporter noted that John Norr actually enjoyed the loads of homework, Frank Talcott relished the rush in the hallways, Gerry Kinkle Appreciated the nuns ' getting right down to work. Larry McDonald (and he hasn ' t changed) found the lunch bell an indispensable asset. We came out on top in the candy drive that year, and finished a close second in supporting the missions. Our first day as sophomores confirmed the rumor that P.C. was going all-girls, but the change didn ' t affect us much. Mike LeDoux ' s Strontium 90 in the Teeth cap- tured first prize in biology in the annual science fair and thus earned for us the respect of upperclassmen. Our talent Spartacular won acclaim despite wobbly moustaches and a nodding curtain-ringer. But our most cherished pride con- sisted in furnishing a tabernacle for our Lord in the renovated chapel. We were remarkably intrepid as juniors. What other class could successfully sponsor a car wash on a rainy day. ' Plenty of gumption and plain hard work went into staging Our American Heritage, and who ' ll ever forget the sight of John Baker in pink satin breeches, or Ed Gomez ' plat- inum curls? Ring Day evoked the excitement of being al- most seniors, but it brought with it the sober realization of the responsibilities involved in being the leaders of the A.S.B. Our senior year has been a most memorable one, crowded with events, honors, memories. The boys, although nearing extinction at P.C, made a melodious last stand in the oper- etta The Gypsy, and proved that quality is more important than quantity. The senior play, May Crowning, and all the other activities and privileges reserved for seniors culminated with graduation, so wonderful and yet somewhat sad, because it marked the last time we would be together as a class. Indebted to many, we close this chapter in our lives hum- bly grateful, confident that our way of life shall testify to this gratitude.
