Photographer's flash startles Totman. CAMPION STUDENTS SOCIALIZE 16

As Hilt demonstrates, humor is not unknown in the library. THE AGE OF LEARNING Father Lucey patiently waits his turn. A man grows tall at Campion. Like a tree, his branches probe the mysteries of manhood. He knows why he must grow; Campion shows him how to grow. It fathers the roots and sees that the growth is straight. Not merely for physical growth, but also for spiritual and mental growth, the man depends on Campion. Campion, on the other hand, depends on the man. If the man does not grow sufficiently in body, mind, and soul, the school withers. Campion grows tall. This is spirit; this is the food on which the school thrives. Spirit is not cheering on the football field. Spirit is not participating in daily Mass. These are merely manifestations of that which we all know is there. Spirit is the attitude of the man, the values and ap- preciation the Campion graduate takes with him to his bout with life. A man grows tall at Campion. 15

RHYTHM, MUSIC, AND “I wonder if he s really from Pisano Beach?” Mixers A large part of the social life at Campion comes by way of the institution fondly known as “the mixer.” On a precious few evenings each year a hundred lucky students make their way to the Checkerboard to “Mix” with girls from LaCrosse, Dubuque, or from town. With inhibitations and fears thrown to the winds, these evenings become memorable affairs. Throughout the dance the Paramours blare earnestly; during moments of quiet, names are exchanged and friendships made. Each mixer, be it “Pharoh’s Follies” or “Ho-dad Holi- days”, ends with many a sigh and fond farewell. 17 ‘‘This is the last street dance I'm playing at,” mutters Rizzo.
