... At Play Leisure and sociabili+y were also part of every student's life. In playing together, we came to know each other more closely and to experience the give and take of teamwork in- volved in any activity from stage crew to the flag corps. Juniors and seniors gathered in the courtyard on sunny days to chat and study. Even studying provided comradery as we wor- ried together before a huge anatomy or government test and rejoiced in each others' suc- cess afterwards. Open class- rooms were places of assembly during the day as were infre- quent programs in the aud. People could be seen just hangin' around after school waiting for a practice or a ride as parents sometimes wondered where their sons or daughters really lived. The playful spirit expanded be- yond the walls of the building into the enthusiasm of weekend games, parties, and get-to- gethers. Even jobs held with fel- low Assumption students be- came more tolerable because there was someone who under- stood. Assumption “ at play won the respect of the community and of the state in awards received for athletic or journalistic achieve- ments. We had a good rime and came to respect each other's efforts.
