Seniors have an informal chat with the Retreat Master, Rev. James G. McAvoy, C.M. ga,w How well we remember September 6, 1949: Our entrance into a new life: What would it be like??? Soon we found that we were etu- dente of SJES. Now we were dignified: We belonged to a high school. Now we were grown up: That is what we thought. But all too soon we found that we were only greenies. We didn't really belong to this new school at all!

When exams were over, we again entered with o p e n minds and contrite hearts into our second re- treat with Rev. James Toomey, C. M. as our re- treat-maeter.
