Tim Yungfer grapples with a strong opponent. This Gabriels-O'Rafferty wrestling meet was a highlight of the season to those on the team. ROUGH TART FOR HARDY MATME This was Gabriel's first year in wrestling and like all new athletic teams it takes time to develop a winning squad. Under the leadership of Coach Greenwood, the wrestling teams posted a 1-7-1 record. This does not tell the whole story. It is a known fact thatwrestlingis a sport requiring strength, timing, agility and experience. Gabriels lacked experience. Even though the team posted only one victory, and one tie, the season is a tribute to Shamrock spirit. With only four Seniors, Doug Blankenburg, Chris Clark, A1 Arman, and Stan Wellman graduating, the outlook for next year's team is bright indeed.

A GREAT VAR ITY Top left: S. VanTi1bert, D. Holland, M. Gosslin, T. Curtain, J. Tripp, D. McRae, P. Teszelwicz, bottom left: T. Rosatti, S. Roman, J. Stevenson, D. Gerholz, P. Peterson. The will to win and the ability to come out on top was evident in this year's junior varsity squad, coached by Mr. Robert J astrab. Although the team suffered the discourage- ment of a losing season, good potential was shown in team members who next year will be representing the school as part of the varsity team. Among them are Dave Sanders, Chris Rundle, Mike O'Neill, and Jim DiVietri who have improved so as to become varsity material. The upcoming Reserve team, this year' s Freshmen, also showed great promise for Gabriels' future varsity as they compiled an excellent 12-2 record under the coaching of Mr. Jerry Sambear. They can be justly proud of this re- cord even though their two defeats were to our arch-rivals O'Ra.fferty. Both Varsity and Junior Varsity have fine material from which to draw, and future successful seasons seem to be in store for the Shamrocks.

THE FUTURE I FUR THE FIT Two gym classes of Sophomores and Juniors clown for the camera after a rigorous and difficult game of commando basketball . The new gym instructor for the girl'sdepartment is Mrs. Reed. The quality and exacting discipline of her classes have benefited her students much in the line of physical dexterity and poise. With the dawn of the Kennedy administration in 1960, a vibrant new movement took hold of our land. One facet of this movement was and is physical fitness. This year at Gabriels there is an excellent program in physical educa- tion. Under the guidance of such capable instructors as Mr. Greenwood and Mrs. Reed, the student body is put through the rigors of a strenous physical education pro- gram. Similar to the Grecian theory of perfection in mind and body, the curriculum of Gabriels High personifies this theory of the development of the entire man. From this overall excellence in student planning, we the student body will benefit greatly. Don Cook, Mike Bebee and Jon Grace attempt climbing to the rafters.
