Subject: SAS Class 1957-58... Some memories

I have browsed this message board a couple of times and so far I like what I see. What you have started here is a good thing. Thank you.

So far though I have only seen one SAS class 1957-58 post from Cetong Batac of San Diego. I know there are more SAS alumni out there from that batch of graduates. So how about it folks... let's hear from you! Let's hear from Polon Villanueva and Elpidio Lubina of Chicago, Leon Encarnacion, Lauro Bunoan and Resting Laranang from the greater LA area, Heli Aquino (nee Pagaduan) and Carmelita Laplana of the San Francisco Bay Area and even Sister Josephine Ong from Rwanda or Tanzania I don't remember where anymore. These are just a few of the many members of this class here in the US, in Canada, Australia and even Europe and Africa. This batch of graduates is special to me not only because I graduated with them but also because this was a premier class in terms of accomplishment.

Those were halcyon days at St. Augustine. True this was a different time and place but it was a time the Church echoed with Gregorian chanting in the afternoons while the sound of laughter was unmistakable from the girl's department as they played volleyball or softball games in their (yikes) bloomers. Although the classes were largely segregated and the boys couldn't get but glimpses of the girls, the grotto and the Church provided good observation venues. One of the few times the school came together was during basketball games and Field Day...

(To Be Continued....) Be sure to come back to Seaside Park for the next installment of the continuing series of stories and anecdotes about SAS Class 1957-58.
