NE hundred and twenty lads and lassies bewildered, yet Hrmly resolved to succeed, walked shyly down corridors, tripping over doorstops, and clasping a pile of newly acquired books. As Freshmen we were not accustomed to such weighty volumes. How well we remember that first class period, that hrst assembly, and that hrst pep talk. The Reverend John J. Kealy, the newly appointed principal, read the rules and regulations. It was in this year that our annual, PRIDWEN, made its debut. Time for our hnal exams soon came, then a short summer vacation. Now-Sophomorehcod. This year the first edition of Twin Towers, our school newspaper, was published. Again many members of our class were extremely anxious to take an active part in the Afternoon of Music. Exercising our privilege as Sophomores, we attended in a body the Baccalaureate ceremonies at St. Patrick's Cathedral and admired the Seniors in their caps and gowns. Some day, we too would be graduates, we hoped. Back again in September, determined to make the most of our Junior year. We experienced our Hrst real social gathering-the Junior Prom-heaped with good times. The class was kept busy during Christmas-time with the sale of wreaths and at Easter-time with the sale of chocolate eggs. ln this way we PAGE I4

The series of Catholic lectures at the Forum was begun and many students were privileged to hear such noted speakers as the Reverend Francis Talbot, S. J., editor of America, the Right Reverend Fulton J. Sheen, lecturerg Father Hubbard, The Glacier Priestg Bishop Kelley, author and lecturerg and Mr. Frank Sheed, publisher and author. It was in this year that the East-West Shore Press Conference held its quarterly meeting at Catholic High. Filled with ambition and expectation for the future, we entered the last stretch-our Senior year. An unusual number of activities made the Hrst se- mester pass rapidly. We enjoyed presenting our successful Senior Play, Smilin' Through. A feeling of well-being was the reward of our annual three-day retreat. Soon spring was here, the time for the Senior Hop, which proved to be a gala event. Measuring for class rings, fitting of caps and gowns, posting of examina- tion dates brought us nearer to the end. Now we await the night when we go before our beloved Bishop to receive diplomas, those coveted documents which at once serve as our passports into a busy world, and also mark the close of four years at Catholic High.
