 But Father Wiggins, I can't see anything wrong. For those seniors who hadn’t taken them previously, and for the more enter- prising juniors, another session of the all- important College Board Exams was held on March 2. After spending a depressing afternoon in the testing rooms, the Cam- pionmen sought relaxation at the Pop Con- cert. During the next three weeks, the stud- ents were barraged with the roughest ser- ies of tests they had faced all year: the NEDT test for the freshmen and sopho- mores, the NMSQT test for the juniors, and the third-quarter tests for all.

One night in March the Jesuits relaxed their rigid standards and permitted the students to indulge in the luxuries of gambling. In a gala Casino Night party sponsored by the student council, junior card sharks and fast-talkers rooked the entire student body out of “Monop- oly money’’ supplied for the occasion. Of great delight to the students was the es- tablishment of spring order and the softball leagues, in which every infield hit can be turned into a homer. The highlight of the spring season was Mothers’ Weekend. At this time, the cadet battalion passed in review before the adoring parents. The next day, students and visitors viewed the much-heralded Masquers produc- tion of Oliver, a musical comedy adaptation of Charles Dickens’s novel. Sgt. Haschka teaches an essential of ROTC.
