Knights disarmor after hard fought victory over Aquinas at LiCrosse. The year started off at an extremely brisk pace as soon as the Frosh arrived on September 5, and the rest of the students on the following day. After the Frosh had learned that there was no elevator on which to use their newly acquired tickets, everyone settled down to work. According to the fine Campion tradition, the spirit of the year was set with the Mass of the Holy Ghost on Sep- tember 15. One of the first changes to be noticed by the upperclassmen was the new face behind the counter at Ma’s. The new owner, John Wood, had even remodeled the seniors’ own famous backroom. This was a complete success, following the traditional attitude toward Campion Students started by Ma. The first break from the regular routine for the Freshmen came on the last weekend of Sep- tember. This was Freshman Parents’ Weekend With the persuasive encouragement of their vis- itors, the Frosh went back to class on Monday eager to work. On October 5, the seniors and juniors traveled to La Crosse to see the Aquinas Blugolds thorough- ly beaten by the infamous Knights. Homecoming was a great success. Campion won the game; and, thanks to the parent chaper- ones, the dance was magnificent. This made the long hours spent in preparations for the weekend seem well worth the effort.
