'11 if ki ,. 4 no-f' My V' ,,...., THE MASS OF THE HOLY GHOST to ask blessings on the new school year was held, as usual, at All Saints Church soon after school opened in the fall.

I36 n 1 iq. lteview tho ear in rrtrospevt Along with the organized happenings around a school, there are always the occasional and some- times more important events. They are the annual retreat, the talks, movies, dances, etc., that complete the story of a year in school. On the following pages we have tried to include as many of these minor events as space and year- book deadlines would allow. Later events are covered in the EDMUNDIAN's brother publication, the FOUNDER, which appears annually soon after graduation. Also included-some leftovers from previous sections and general interest snaps that at least include more students' faces which is, after all, the underlying purpose of the book.

outdoors -Triwk Robert Scott were strictly distance men. They stayed with the mile and half-mile for four years, and, although they didn't set any records, they earned some impor- tant points tor the Irish over the years. Bill Winston was plagued with injuries from the end of his Junior year until mid-season in Senior year. However, he remained one of the team's best. Mike Foley, Kevin Quill and Larry Karadzas were versatile utility men who could always be relied on for that needed meet winning point. Among the Juniors and Sophomores remaining to run again next year are Charles Garcia, Walter Kristlibas, Ken Morris, Charlie Gaston and Willie Latti- more. They'Il form the nucleus of what may be an even better team than this year. Sophomores Ben Jimenez, Robert Connors, Nick Lopano, Winston Lewis, Ed McBride, John O'Brien and Jim Mc- Coy are already first place regulars. Bolstered by upcomers trom the Fresh- man team, they should form one of the hardest to beat teams in town. JOHN ANDREWS CLEARS THE BAR, above, with ease during an afternoon practice stint. John ran the 'l00 and 220 as well and won medals in all three events. He did the 100 in 10 seconds, the 220 in 24.3. ED McBRlDE AND PETE TOULON, at left, were two of the best second year runners and high iumpers. Toulon, who won 50 medals in first year, continued his winning ways. McBride ran sprints and relays us well as iumping contests. ERNIE LARINI REPRESENTED one-quarter of the Soph 880 yd. relay team, at left. In his first year on the team, he showed marked improvement. At right, John Madigan, only a Freshman, was a top 880 yd. runner. He also did some high iumping. ED GALLAGHER, below, rubs soothing wintergreen on his aching muscles before going out on the track. Kids loved to rub their youthful muscles. lt gave them that college boy feeling and undoubtedly helped their minds as well as their muscles.

1'9 ,N f' '21 SOPHS-mostly from Room 58-appear quite absorbed by the Graymoor vocation movie-one of the many films that students saw during the school year. Mindful of the tre- mendous numbers of vocations from Rice, religious orders are anxious for an opportunity to meet the students. BOB McALLlSTER l3-56l and Ed Kildutf l4-73l are doing pretty well with these lovely girls-considering the two boys had never met them before. It would be nice if there were more to this love story but Bob and Ed never saw them again. HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS, Tom Ferguson and his girl Noreen, stand one out during the first school dance. Tom appears unaware of the camera, while Noreen displays a suspicious look. Fergie was a typical Senior. An average student, he earned his date money by ushering at Radio City Music Hall. FOUR MEN IN A BOAT-a scene from the '57 boatride at Playland. The three whose faces can be seen are Neil O'Neil, Gene Guerin and Pat Feerick-all Seniors this year. Scene was repeated at '58 outing.
