s E N I O R The pride of a school is its Senior Class and the pride of the seniors is their school. Bishop Gibbons should well be proud of the Class of 1962 for this group is its first graduating class. The graduates should well be proud of Bishop Gibbons because from it they have learned many things. It has given them an education in the things of the world and it has taught them how to live as good Catholic men. When the seniors watched the dedication of the school in September, 195 8, they knew little about the Christian Brothers of Ireland and most of them did not know the value of a Catholic training. They entered a school which would be expected to produce great things. It was up to these freshmen, the present seniors, to make the name of Bishop Gibbons synonymous with the entire development of the whole man — both body and soul. As a result of its untiring efforts, the Class of 1962 has made Gibbons a symbol of outstanding scholastic achievement and of great athletic ability; and, above all, a place where the neighboring Catholic boy can obtain a firm and solid foundation in the virtues which his teachers so expressly exemplify. Indeed, we seniors are proud of Bishop Gibbons and the fine educational training which we have received. Thus, as each of us goes our own way into the walks of life, we are confident that we will be able to cope with the chal- lenging problems that will present themselves. And so after four very important and necessary years we bid farewell to Bishop Gibbons High School, now our Alma Mater. However, before we leave to make a success of our lives else- where, we wish once again to express our gratitude and to ask God's blessing on our Alma Mater so that it may continue its tremendous work on behalf of youth. s
