Dedication

It is sometimes difficult to openly express sincere appr ciation, but at certain times ·it cannot go unmentioned we, the staff of Echoes '75, would like to dedicate this issl to Fr. Luis Ripoll. How ever, this dedication is just a smt token compared to what he has given us, and we know th it would be extremely difficult to repay him for what he hj done. Therefore, let it be known that we are extreme grateful and forever in debt.

J. Gonzalez- Pi

For the Sf[,

Rev. Felipe Arroyo S.J.

This is the most important "grade" book. In it you keep your grades for history, science, and all of the other subjects that you have studied during the year. N evert heless, the main source ofyour experiences, where you learned most was in conviviality with others; in life apparently routine, but extremely varied, of every day. The yearbook summarizes that life. To open it after some time elapses will bring to mind those experiences.

I congratulate those who with work and sacrifice have known how to leave us this magnificent "grade book. And I invite all to keep it forever. As time goes by it will have more value for you.

SPECIAL EVENTS

The Graduating Class Of 1975

The pictures on these pages are those of a commencement ceremony. Graduation connotes an end, while commencement signifies an end, yet also a beginning. Belen has prepared us for life as best it can. It is now up to us to work with what has been given us, for this is only the beginning.

The Prom; the biggest event of the year. With over 100 couples it was the largest, and til! no the best ever. The disco sounds of "Ecstacy" fi!!ed the atmosphere until two in the morning. Th fo!!owed parties and the breakfast. Soon night turned to day and a!! came to an end. This night one that wi!! be treasured by a!!. it was also something more. It was a most fitting farewe!! foro seniors.

Homecoming !)75

After an eventful and high-spirited week, Homecoming '75 came to a climax on Saturday night when Belenites and their escons gathered in the Pan American Room of the Sheraton Four Ambassadors Hotel to ''keep on Bumping'' with the soulful sounds of Unit III.
