STHRRING: CLQSS or IUNTE, 1949 Directed by: SISTERS or SHINT JOSEPH Produced by: oUR LHDY oF MFINKINDH Hct l The curtain rises. The stage is set for Hct One. The sun is shining upon eighty new Xavierites starting their first of four wonderful years. The performance is a difficult but happy one. The Freshmen played their parts like real troupers. Hbly sup- ported by the kind Sisters we dived into our studies, Latin be- wildered usg Biology entranced usg Flllgebra completely confused us. There were many happy scenes in this our first starring role, Our hazing gave us a great thrill. Christmas was glorious and we envied the Senior choir girls singing to the patients in the hospital. Would we ever reach the senior year? Before we realized it summer had approached and we closed our books as the curtain descended on our first steps to stardom. Hct ll Sophomores-Now, the curtain rises on the second act to reveal the same group, slightly older, trudging across the hills of Rome trying in vain to follow Caesar. ln a spirit of sheer desperation, with Caesar nowhere to be found, we turned to Euclid for solace. Needless to say, Geometry just didn't seem to be the proper antidote for a Gallic War. French also raised its lofty head for the first time only to lower it again when les jeunes filles started to decapitate it, But from all of these battles the Sophomores emerged victorious and made their graceful flight like newly-born butterflies into the Iunior year. if .1 fe 4 I Ig I 1- 4 0 + lb .fix N56 l '90 - 1 7 I 'Q Y f 4 ,allig- lJ l RN, 4 .'3,..1:1dz. .7 Z 'fi L H xr t 2 i t f Q
