Room Z Gang While some students wandered the halls, sat in empty classrooms, or feigned working in proctored studyhalls, others congregated in room Z to do whatever their little hearts desired - within reason and St. Agnes rules, of course! These students, commonly known as the Room Z Gang, preferring food, drink and radio tunes to hunger, thirst and utter silence, found their niche in this brightly decorated room. Filled with com- fortable chairs, big puffy pillows and many plants, the lounge served as a get-away into which no faculty member would dare enter. Front Hall Crowd Having nothing better to do than complete daily homework, study for tests, begin term papers, and finalize publication assignments, a rather large, yet sometimes small group of select seniors and juniors banded together to form the fam- ous ior more correctly infamousl Front Hall Crowd. Meetings hap- pened by chanceg occuring after students thought to be disruptive were, so to speak, asked to remove themselves from the library. Front Hall subject matter was usually non-academic: topics ranged from People's distinctive walks to Holiday Club dates to Unusual modes of dress. ROOM ZIFHONT HALL 133

teamwork !'tem-wark! n.: work done by several associates with each doing a part but all subor- dinating personal prominence to the efficiency of the whole. Teamwork is a necessary part of sports, especially at St. Agnes where the athletic teams are short on players as a result of the small- ness of the student body. Yet players of the same sport had a common interest and goal of doing their best which frequently led to victory. Friendship formed as players worked as a whole unit with the welfare of the team foremost in their minds. Each be- came dependent on the other in facilitating the success of specific planned plays. By endlessly run- ning laps and sprints, performing the same daily drills, and driving on long, rowdie bus rides to away scheduled games, the players be- came not only teammates but also true friends.
