School Spirit

October 21, 1972, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern

While the visiting lion from yesterday was holding court at Bowlby's downtown, my very own Sophomore class was raising the roof at the St, Mary's gym for homecoming.  I can name every face in that crowd and probably make good educated guesses at even the obscured faces.  That was the beauty of a small class...everybody knew everybody else.  It's rather difficult to maintain anonymity when there's only 100 or so kids.  

Our rescheduled 45th reunion was a few months ago and some of these same faces reappeared then, albeit aged with time, a little heavier, a little grayer, a little balder.  But our enthusiasm ran high, nonetheless, just as the caption says.  Just look at the practice we had.
