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.

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.

PRI GTIME A YQUN M NDS FA CY TURNS TQ TRACK A D BA EBALL. .ps ,jf Jim Di Vietri, following the exam- ple of the senior veteran players, knows that practice leads to experi- ence and skill in his batting stance. 74 This year's baseball team will have anew coach in Mr. John Greenwood. Although last year's squad did not live up to expectations, the prospects for this year's team are bright. Those who will head up the returning varsity are seniors Greg Wilcox, Doug Blankenburg, Mike Kish, Art Bator and Jim Day. The juniors will be represented by Jim Fewless, Marc Buchko, Tom Eiden, Joe De Marco and others. With this fine potential, we are sure that they will be successful. The Gabriels' Harriers in 1966 are sure to be the bright spot in Gabriels' Spring Sports Program. Under the fine coaching of Ray Lincolnhol and his assistant Phil Brooks, our track team can be looked to with pride. With returning varsity lettermen like Don Cook, Chris Clark, Don Hebert, Steve Hess, Tom Jakovac and Mike Mitchell the outlook is very promising. Judging from last year's per- formance, the outlook for this yearis high and mighty. Top right: Steve Hess and Tom Jakovac set to sprint off the blocks. M. Buchko, J. Fitzgerald, T. Eiden, M.
