sl 6 11 il! STUDENTS MEET THE CHALLENGE During late August and early September of '61, the doors 0 Hoban High swung open, admitting the students who were destined to work, cooperate, and socialize together during the coming nine months. The halls and classrooms once more became populated, and an energetic din replaced the solitary quiet which was prevalent over the summer months. Long lines of students waiting for books and schedules were reflected in the mirror-smooth waxed floors. Befuddled freshmen replaced the familiar faces of last yearis lgraduates. The opening Mass set off the new year wit a religious mood, an important aspect of Hoban life. By September 6, everyone was in class and slowly but surely becoming adjusted to the school routine. That first week reflected briefly what was to follow rapidly in the many coming weeks. Surveying their fates, incoming Hobamtes pour over the prospects of high school glory

A NEW YEAR OE SPIRITED LIFE Throughout the school year our work and varied activities blended into sturdy Hoban lives. We gained in classes the knowledge, at activities the cooperation and experience, in athletics the physical fitness and spirit, and at social events the friendships necessary for a successful life. The aims of a good Catholic edu- cation we fulfilled with a spirit that gained us prestige academically, socially, athletically, and, we hope, spiritually. At one of the frequent assemblies students burst forth with a section cheer in support of the team. The leads in the school production of Stardust receive ap- plause at the finale. Memories of days long past run throuh parents' minds as they attend the annual Parents' Night program.
