FRESHMEN Fellow Classmen: It would be well at this time to seize the opportunity of thank- ing the members of our class for bestowing upon me the honor of being class president. Unworthy as I am of this honor, I have tried to serve you to the best of my ability. For the past two semesters we have been to a certain extent inactive. It must be remembered that we were unaccustomed to prep school life, and it was necessary for us to take a Uback seat during our initial year. Now we have bridged the gap and are members, strictly speaking, of that active unit. Let's prove that we have profited by our inactivity and are better prep students. Although our futures may be indefinite, now is the time to make the due preparation for them. The world today is in a mud- dle. It needs men of character. As the class of '50 leaves these hallowed walls, we must make certain that we have the initiative to make the world a better place in which to live.

The Freshman class of this year was the largest in many years. Having the added honor of being the Hrst first-year class in the school's new location, we came to the Prep bewildered and full of wonder about the novelty of going to school away from home. WVith the class elections we installed Paul Leahy as President, Lee Brinson as Vice President. We were certainly fortunate in having Father Francis McKinney, T.O.R. appointed Moderator. Eager to put ourselves in the spotlight, we edited our own weekly paper, Frosh Babble. Father Francis, with the staff worked vigilantly, and soon the whole student body was anticipa- ting the publication. Not satisfied with this accomplishment, we surprised the school with Aour own dance, The Freshman Hop. The girls came from Saint Joseph's Academy and the evening was indeed a gala affair. Yes, we have completed the first lap with three more to go. Our spirit, achieved by self sacrihce, must never become lax. If we continue as we have, we may rest assured that ournames will be inscribed in gold in the annals of the Prep. QIXTURI4 m 'Y 5 Q 2 1: 9 -5 2.2 ea W 5 'P 1 8 4 7 'G mp Y' '85 Q '?'Nc GROW
