March uWhen crocuses and h yacinths emerge from March's sno w-soaked mud, then harbingers of Spring's descent arise with every new-formed bud. This stale siice of rhetoric may be second-rate poetry, but its forecast of spring suitably applies to meteorological conditions which frequented St. Xavier during the month of March. These spotty eruptions of spring - fike weather occasioned student kite flying sessions and several opportunities for loiling about the school's lawn during the lunch period. Such mundane diversions had not long progressed, however, when the first exciting news of an Aquabomber victory filtered back from Columbus. Actually, those students who remember the unprecedented hoopla whieh accompanied the 1970 State Swim Meet will realize how terribly neglected the same event seemed in 1972. It is hoped that the perennial dominion of the swim team in the state of Ohio does not come to be regarded as passe. The following weekend, St. Xavier's o rder of thespians produced The Wedding Night, a group of one act plays dealing with the more comical aspects of marriage. Immediate reaction to this presentation ranged from highly favorable opinions to moderate disdain. Then, on the Sunday of that same weekend, while most Cincinnatians were downtown watching the St. Patrick's Day parade, the intelligentsia of St. Xavier attended the first annual gala induction into the National Honor Society. The ceremony, highlighted by a timely speech delivered by the Rev. Morris Hollenbaugh, was a vast improvement over the quickie initiation procedure used in previous years. As the school life routine continued, the evenimaginative Blue Pride Squad organized an arm wrestling contest, which garnished the usual tedium with an engaging bit of provocation. Next, in the face of Holy Week, came the third quarter exams With their customary bout of frenzied study, and finally, on Good Friday, March was appropriately buried, but with no hope of resurrection. 25
