-. iq Long time students also encoun- tered a revised student center upon entering the school in late August: new sofas and tables. The sofas were purchased by Fr. Peck from some unknown source . The tables were constructed here on campus by Cascia's own maintenance crew. These sofas and tables were received by the student body with great appreciation. The once-bleak and uncomfortable student center was transformed into a colorful and convenient place to work and relax.

This crosstown rivalry goes back many years with Cascia winning ten of the games and losing only five. Like every year this years game turned out to be a great one with Cascia beating Holland Hall 21-18 This was the first time in three years that Cascia beat Holland Hall. This years team finally reestablished an old

Opening Not only were we treated to a beautiful new Science and Math Center at the opening of school, but also a new Dean of Men and a new lounge area. The Cascia Hall vs. Holland Hall football game was also a main event which attracted much attention in the second week of school. We all received a fine first impression of the new Math and Science Center. Its air-conditioned rooms provided much needed relief from the August heat. However, this comfort was only to be temporary as the cooling system broke down in mid-September. Then the situation became worse as the building, heavily insulated and unaccustomed to natural ventilation, produced stifling heat. This was corrected, though, as soon as possible and the new building once again became cool and comfortable.

Most noteworthy is the new tardy policy. At orientation students were shocked to learn that when tardy they had to stand at attention after school for forty-five minutes. Many did not believe this at first and had to learn the hard way. Needless to say, tardiness has greatly diminished at Cascia since the opening of school.

Fall With the coming of autumn, many school-related activities began to take place. The largest of these events was the football season. Virtually every member of the student body became involved in one way or another. Players, managers, and new head coach Frank Grimm were in the spotlight most of the time, however, many other students from both Cascia and Monte Cassino gained recognition as first class fans. Under the management of Cas- cia's only National Merit Semifinalist, Bill Wynn, I-lemi's became a popular post-game hangout for upperclassmen. After a hard fought victory, fans and team members alike would adjourn to Hemi's for excellent pizza and a relaxed atmosphere with blaring rock and roll music. Our theme, Come Together , was certainly reflected in school spirit. Pep rallies throbbed with enthusiasm and swayed to the beat produced by Cascia's pep band . Student Council also bolstered school spirit with Hat Day and Hunt-A-Huskie Day where students were awarded free dress in exchange for renewed spirit. Bus trips, organized by john O'Brien, were also successful as they enabled students too young to drive to still see the game and produce spirit of their own.
