Past Meets Present at O'G What do a school and the jousting field of yesterday have in common? Both educate and prepare their users for the real world. The similarities become uncannily obvious when that school happens to be O'Gorman. No longer do we joust using spears and swords but now we use pencils, paper and footballs. Also, our vic- tories andloses no longer take the form of broken arms or lacerated bodies but take the forms of grades and numbers on a scoreboard. In the days of yore, after a long bone-numbing contest, the battlers would stuff themselves full of the finest food of the day. ln modern times, we have an updated version of the mead halls. After a long, mind- numbing test or lecture, the students go to, where else but, the cafeteria for the ambrosia spoken of in a man- ly tale. One may say now, So what if our HQ, f :itat . X J very existence links so strongly with the times of lords, ladies and used horse saIesmen? As a school with our team's name being the knights, we must remember our heritage. A legacy of battles won, lost, and avoided. In these times of trouble and drama, we find hope and assurance in knowing that the great battlers of days gone by, such as Sir Lancelot du Lac, General Patton and Ernest Hemingway, have paved the way to greatness. In our everyday struggles and toils we bring ourselves just that extra step closer to the dreams that shine in the distance. The dreams of O'Gorman, incorporated into everything we do. The lasting dreams of excellence and going that extra mile. We in 1984 and 1985 carry the torch of our dream from the past to the present and into the future. Long may it blaze among us.
