St. Bede Symbolic of the spiritual, in- tellectual and physical growth which a student attains, St. Bede’s primary buildings are the mon- astery, administrative building and the gymnasium. Built in 1942, the monastery is a three floor-structure with a fourth added in 1957. The vari- ous floors house chapels, liv- ing quarters, utility rooms, class rooms, refectory and tailor shop. In 1962 the new abbey print shop was erected northwest of the monastery. In this setting the monks live according to the Benedictine rule, work and pray. Their day begins at 5:20 with Matins. Teaching, manual labor, and prayer constitute the monks’ ac- tivities. Vespers and Compline signals the end of the day and the opportunity for solitude. Both junior college and acad- emy are situated in the adminis- tration building. The living quar- ters, class rooms and chapel are located in this building. Join- ing it to the monastery is the refectory, library and two lev- els of cloisters. When fire destroyed the old gym, the new Abbot Vincent Gymnasium was built in 1955. It contains a two-court basketball floor, and athletic quarters. Free time can be spent in the swim- ming pool, TV room, ping pong room and clubrooms. An expansive athletic field affords room for outdoor ex- ercise. There are the baseball diamond, tennis court, intra- mural fields and football stadium on which the boys partici- pate in various sports. 9

Registration Starts Pat Wei her and George Kapa- cinskas tote their clothes and suitcases to their respective lock- er rooms. Magazines, tennis racket and a suitcase or two herald the arrival of Mark Swanson for another year of school. ••'I. » Refreshed by three months of summer vacation, day students and boarders both returned to school eager to hit the books. Freshman boarders had the biggest adjustment to make and took the heady responsibility of living away from home and family in stride. Day student freshmen plunged enthusiastically into high school life, but took a while to get acquainted after being split into three different homerooms. Sophomores and juniors were quick to dis- cover their new privileges and prestige, rejoicing in their elevation to higher class status. Resident seniors basked in their rooms, no longer subject to the rigors of dormitory life. Seniors definitely had it best among the day students, too, as they enjoyed their homeroom in the new language laboratory.
