During, Sophomore year, we made up for any de. ficiency in activity between classes as freshmen. At first it seemed like one intricate labyrinth of cor- ridors, stairs, classrooms, and construction detours. Our English II classes were in one of the new partially-finished rooms in the annex between the convents, and our French classes in the one-time garage. This meant going out of doors through the auditorium, and keeping on the green strip of carpet so as not to mar the highly-polished floor. We had a chance to view each day the progress being made on stage, which seemed so enormous in its height, width, and depth. Under- neath the stage two dressing rooms were being com- pleted. These would be used for freshman classes later in the year and until the new building was completed. the new Father Donahue wonders if the new floor will ever be ready. ¥ sedis deamon.) | Les steps taken as Sophs in 63 and 64 23
