Abbot Pennings High School 111 Third Street DePere, Wisconsin “WALK A ME IN MY SHOES " 3 4 a.p.h.s: PREFACE A few weeks before Abbot Pennings High School opened its doors on the 1980-81 school year, some interested members of the Pennings community took a retreat up north to discuss and plan the upcoming year. One of their goals was to select a theme for the school year. The song that they chose is entitled Walk A Mile In My Shoes. The opening lines of the song appear on the previous pages of this book. The theme of this song is a call for more understanding among the peoples of the world; it also has quite a bit to do with the purpose of the 1981 ARGOS. " If you could see you through my eyes ...” It is this passage from the song that sums up our purpose — to show you, the Abbot Pennings Squire, an image of yourself as others see you. Thus, we have chosen the title of the APHS 1980-81 theme song for the title of this issue of the ARGOS. As you page through this book, you may notice a few of the elements of an ordinary road map. Road maps have a lot to do with a yearbook. Road maps can show you where you have been as well as where you are going; a good yearbook can do the same. Think of this book as a detailed map of the 1980-81 school year. We hope that it holds between the covers some of the understanding, education, faith, and friendship that Pennings lhas given to each one of us. Perhaps it will show you something about yourself that you didn’t notice before — or even more importantly, something about another, for this is the message behind the song WALK A MILE IN MY SHOES.

The May 29 ceremonies began with a Mass at St. Norbert Abbey. From there the graduates and their parents went to the Sensenbren- ner Memorial Union at St. Norbert College for dinner. After dinner it was on to the com¬ mencement ceremonies, also in the Union. The service was unusually short. Bishop Aloysius Wycislo presided over the occa¬ sion. The Class of 1981 was addressed by Bill Donarski and Brian Janssen as Valedic¬ torian and Salutatorian, respectively.

The Athletic Medal was awarded to Bill Schneider. After graduation the grads and their guests were feted at a party at Western Racquet Club where the Class of ' 81 offi¬ cially began their summer, as well as their life as alumni of Abbot School. lS t m % 1 » ft m - ■ ■ vviw: ■ k r 4b Mr. Don LaViolette Assistant Principal; Sociology; Academic Committee; LANCE Modera¬ tor; Varsity Football Basketball Coach Fr.

It isn’t an exaggeration to say that Pennings wouldn’t really be Pennings without their support. The Squire has come a long way, but in many respects his progress can be partly attributed to the “Sajoac " — from cheer¬ ing at our sporting events, to livening up our dances, musicals, parties, and every¬ thing in between. They all deserve our deepest respect and gratitude. ■1 0 k.%. f ii war v - : wF r s i 1. These girls must have thought that the man behind the camera was more interesting than the game. 2.

M I 54 HOI FERNANDO EXCHANGE STUDENTS TWO MAKE PENNINGS AN INTER¬ NATIONAL EXPERIENCE There were two people new to Pennings this year who truly made APHS an interna¬ tional experience. Fernando Beltran from the Republic of Uruguay, and Masanori Hoizumi from Japan,! joined the student body for the 1980-81 school year as ex¬ change students. Masanori Hoizumi — “Hoi " for short — came from the city of Tsu, Japan. He was born to a middle-class family in that city. Hoi’s father works for the Japanese telephone company, while his mother is employed by SHARP Electronics. Hoi was ranked 100 out of 450 stu¬ dents in his high school class in Japan. His favorite sports are swimming, baseball, and rowing. Hoi said that he had a tough time this year, but that he liked the USA alot. Fernando Beltran came to Pennings in the second semester. He was born in Mon¬ tevideo, the capital of Uruguay. His hob¬ bies are soccer, Bible study, church activi¬ ties, and simultaneous translation; in fact, Fernando can speak four different lan¬ guages. Fernando thought the U.S. was “very interesting, " noting that the people here were very friendly, and that there was more freedom of speech. Both Hoi and Fernando learned from APHS, but they also gave the Pennings community quite a bit. Here ' s wishing them the best of luck.

The Squires opened the season at home against Oshkosh Lourdes. Although Lourdes surprised Pennings with a good display of quickness, the Green Machine still won the contest by the slim margin of 8 - 6 . The next stop for the Squires was in Menasha, where they added another victo¬ ry to their record with a hard-fought 7-0 decision. The Squires experienced misfortune at Appleton Xavier as Bill Schneider suffered a broken foot in the first few minutes of competition. Nevertheless, the Green and White went on to clinch the victory with a score of 15-6. The road led on, taking the Squires to a clash with Premontre. The Squires were coming off of a loss to non-conference opponent Chippewa Falls, and were hoping to take out their frustrations on the arch¬ rival Cadet team. Junior running back and ex-Cadet Dan Matuszek did the honors as he blasted through the Cadet defensive line in overtime to score the winning touchdown of a heart-stopping 13-10 vic¬ tory.

The Squire team pounded Marinette Central to capture a decisive victory, out- scoring the Cavaliers by a margin of 20-2. A trip down to Appleton brought the Mighty Squires a disappointing loss at the hands of Fox Valley Lutheran. The Foxes took advantage of a poor Squire first half and defeated Pennings by a heartbreaking 19-14 score. Pennings’ last home game was against conference-leading Manitowoc Roncalli in the infamous “Mud BowL ' — probably the most memorable and exciting game of the season. When the two teams lined up for the final play in overtime, there was not one single blade of grass to be found on the field at Minahan Stadium, and all that stood in the way of a Pennings upset was an extra point conversion attempt by Ron¬ calli which would have tied the score. Fortunately for the Squires, Senior Bill Donarski managed to block the kick to earn a 14-13 victory. The season finale against Fond du Lac was one game that the Squires wished they could have back. Springs scored four¬ teen unanswered points in early action, putting the game out of reach. The painful night ended in a 20-7 Pennings loss. The defeat also extinguished any hopes of playing in the state tournament — an unifitting end to a great season. The winning record was one symptom of a successful season, but there were other important facets of winning that were well known to the Squires. Working together in a common effort and a willing¬ ness to make sacrifices for one’s team¬ mates were hallmarks of the 1980 varsity squad. In many ways, the dedication of each member of the team paralleled the philosophy behind the phrase " Walk a Mite in my Shoes. ” I z -’Ji 1.

The Green and White opened the sea¬ son in Freedom, where they took an 8-6 victory in the final minutes of action. The next two games were to bring the young Squires a loss at the hands of an exper¬ ienced Lombardi Junior High, and a tie with Washington Junior. The freshmen gridders took their 1-1-1 record to Premontre where they proceed¬ ed to destroy a seemingly confused Cadet team by a 20-point margin. The Squires walked away from Franklin Junior with another tie but lost their next two games to Edison and Fox Valley Lutheran to close out the season. Considering the difficulties of “small numbers” and inexperience, one could say that the 1980 freshman football team cov¬ ered many miles in a very short time. 62 n IB f JT» K GOLF GOLF TEAM GOES STATE! 1980 was not to be a Squire year — or so said critics of this year’s golf team. As it turned out, this was definitely not the case. Even though there was only one man back from last year’s squad, the 1980 varsity golf team managed to turn the season into something positive. After losing their first two meets, the four-man squad bounced back to win ten of the last fifteen matches. By the time the end of the season rolled around, the Pennings golfers had earned a second- place berth in the conference with a 10-7 record. runner-up spot in the Fox Valley Christian Conference championship meet, shooting a commendable round of 73. The Squires also captured second with a strong perfor¬ mance at the WISAA regionals, qualifying them to compete in the state tournament at Green Lake. The Squire duffers entered the cham¬ pionship rounds with high hopes, but were somewhat disappointed when they took ninth place in the highly competitive field. Ninth place was slightly less than they had hoped for, but for a team that wasn’t expected to go far, it was an accomplish¬ ment that could in no way be looked down Medalist Nic Wahl led his team to the upon. i ■A ■ v , ■ IT ' 1. “OH, NO!!

" CROSS-COUNTRY YOUNG TEAM GAINS EXPERIENCE The autumn of 1980 was not a season of bright and cheerful weather — nor was it a promising season for the Pennings cross-country team. With two seniors quitting the team in the early season, things began to look bad for the Squire runners. An injury to Mike Conlon, the only returning letterman, also added to their woes, Midway into the season the Pennings team was faced with the possibility of having to forfeit the rest of their meets because of the lack of interest. ' . • » ' . a; . Iff ' - • - at- T -HZ , . A rebuilding of the team was in order, and Coach Bob LaViolette managed to find a few replacement runners to bring some respectability to the squad. Rising out of this new group was Pete Baugnet. The freshman Baugnet was a pleasant surprise for the team as he became the Squires ' 1 harrier of the year, showing good potential for upcoming seasons. The record of this year’s varsity team had only one mark in the win column, but the young Squires gained important exper¬ ience for the autumn of 1981. VARSITY SOCCER WINNING TRADITION CO NTINUES Soccer has had a winning tradition at Pennings ever since the first team was organized years ago. The 1980 Squire soc¬ cer program was no exception to the rule. The team lost the first two games of the season. One match was a shutout at the hands of Neenah, and the other was a 1-7 loss to Premontre. That The Squire kickers weren’t discour¬ aged, however, as they came back to compile a successful 7-5-3 over-all record. The Squires had a hard time keeping everyone healthy during the injury-plagued season, but the bench took up quite ably any slack left by injury.

A tremendous freshman turnout brought the expansion of the JV program to include a second team, consisting most¬ ly of first-year players. This new “JV I ' squad made great strides in their first year, growing in their understanding of the game plus gaining a lot of valuable playing experience. The season was also a success for the “JV 1” team. Not only did they compile a 5-2 record for the season, but they also proved to have a great deal of talent for the future. Both teams were abundant with spirit and determination. They began with little expertise, but were soon able to handle the ball quite well; this came as a result of hours of hard work and drill in the funda¬ mentals of the game. Through concentrat¬ ed effort and the learning of the word unity, a group of young inexperienced re¬ cruits became a team that was worthy of the Squire name. VARSITY BASKETBALL PENNINGS “UNDERDOGS” PLACE THIRD AT STATE Ever since they attained a 15-1 record as freshmen and tied for the FVCC crown their JV year, it seemed certain that the seniors of the 1981 basketball squad would have something great to look for¬ ward to. This year, however, a mediocre (10- 10) season seemed to dictate otherwise. At the beginning of post-season play, the Squires were coming off a loss and were ranked as the underdogs — their dream was apparently slipping away. In late February that dream returned during a game with Fox Valley Lutheran, and when the contest ended the dream was closer to reality; Pennings had won, 47-43. The win gave the Squires a shot at regional favorite, Manitowoc Roncalii. The local newspapers seemed to pre¬ dict a Roncalii victory, but Pennings wasn t counted out. Coaching would prove to play a big part, and as one sports writer put it, “Pennings has the Equalizer. “Much of the credit for the 36-33 upset had to go to Coach Don LaViolette’s “spread of¬ fense, " a style of play that minimizes mistakes while capitalizing on the ones made by opponents. Pennings had used the same offense against Appleton Xavier in December. That game saw the Squires lose by two with a last-second shot by Xavier ' s Dave Bradish. Xavier was to be Pennings 1 first opponent in Milwaukee, and again the Squires were the underdogs. The Squires were not to be intimidated however, and Coach LaVioiette was confi¬ dent that his team would see more action than a first-round loss in the tournament. (continued on page on 72) 1. Look out for that Iceman drive! 2. ‘‘Get in there!” 3. " They told me that this wasn’t supposed to be a contact sport. 4. Hogie surveys the floor. VARSITY BASKETBALL (cammed) Early in the game it looked as if La Violette would be wrong — Xavier got the tip-off and jumped to a seven-point lead. Pennings took a time-out with 2:20 left in the first quarter which marked the start of their slow, deliberate assault on the Xavier lead. By halftime Pennings was right back in it with Xavier ahead, 22-21. The Hawks led throughout the third frame, but the Squires were never far back. Then three minutes into the fourth quarter, Pat Hogan pitched in a free throw that pulled the teams into a tie game. With 2:45 left it was 38-37, Squires. Two free throws by Wayne Pirman and a Jeff Aissen three-point play put the score at 43-37. The 38-second mark saw Xavier back to within one and a Pennings’ pass intercept¬ ed. With :14 remaining, Xavier called time¬ out. The game now resembled one less than three months before, but when Bradish took the last-second shot this time, it was Pennings that took the win. Xavier was stunned, and Pennings was ecstatic. The emotional drain from that victory showed up in the next game, which pitted the Squires against Stevens Point Pacelli. The game was probably the lowest scoring match in tournament history, ending at 24-17 — unfortunately, this time the Green and White was on the losing side. Assured of at least fourth place by the victory over Xavier, Pennings now had the opportunity to go home with the third- place trophy. The final contest would be with Milwaukee heavyweight, Thomas More. Pirman took the opening tip-off to the basket to put his team on the board first. The lead changed hands twice in the first quarter, but by the end of the period Pennings was ahead, 17-10. More came out in the second quarter and converted the deficit into a 24-22 lead. It didn ' t take long for the Squires to regain the lead in the third quarter, and by the end of the game Pennings had ex¬ tended the gap to 21, winning by the score of 59-38. Not many people really expected any of this to happen, but Coach LaViolette said it before leaving for Milwaukee — “We’ve got plans to play on Sunday. " And when Sunday rolled around Pennings was still there. Monday ' s headlines would tell the story: “SQUIRES TAKE THIRD AT STATE!” 1. 7 can fly! ' ' 2. Denny lets go for two more. 3. “Look out. Cadets! Here I come . " 4. ‘let ' s eat ’em alive ' 5. Coaches Vande Loo, Min ten, and LaViofette deep into the game. 73 JV BASKETBALL SHOW POTENTIAL In spite of a season filled with injuries and valuable people missing, the JV Squires showed the making of good bas¬ ketball players. Their record of 13-7 served to confirm their ability. Along with their skill and desire to win, the young Sq uires also brought sports¬ manship onto the basketball court. One important aspect of sportsmanship is be¬ ing able to handle pressure, and this year’s JV cagers seemed to have little trouble with that. In two back-to-back games in the mid¬ dle of the season, the Green and White played hard, only to reach a deadlock after two overtime periods. The only way to win the games was to outshoot their opponent from the free throw line during the final overtime. The Squires didn’t fare well against Marinette Central, swallowing a one-point three-overtime loss, but on the very next night they turned the tables at home against Fond du Lac Springs. The Squires played this game to the fullest, taking it again into seven periods, winning by one point. L Mike Cuene shows how coordinat¬ ed freshmen can he. 2.

FROSH BASKETBALL FRESHMEN TAKE FVL TOURNEY This year’s freshman basketball squad, under the direction of Coach Bob La Vio- lette, started out the season on a rather sour note. The young cagers lost their opening game to the infamous Premontre Cadets, with a final score of 44-36. They also went down to their next opponent before beating Fox Valley Lutheran, 60-44. Chris Badciong led the frosh in scoring, and Todd Gregoire in rebounds as the junior Squires went on to win seven of the remaining fourteen games before entering the Fox Valley Lutheran invitational tour¬ nament. The Squires entered the tourney with the confidence that came from wins in the final two games of the season. The Green and White met Xavier in the first round and came away with a 46-44 victory. The freshmen would now have a chance to avenge the first game of the season, as they were headed for a championship meeting with Premontre. This time Pen - nings was not to be denied, as the Cadets went down to a 38-36 defeat. CHEERLEADING HANDSOME DEVILS SQUAD Pennings again maintained the best- looking cheerleading squad in the FVCC, and maybe the state.. The group featured nine male cheerleaders as well as seven girls from the Academy. Matt Jones, Stuart Romenesko, Bill Schneider, Jeff Aissen, Jay Newhouse, Greg Larson, Jim Waldkirch, Joe Bougie, and Greg Janssen were the handsome dev¬ ils (with great legs) who cheered the Squires on during the football and basket¬ ball seasons. Reis, Tracy Smits, Susie Van Laanen, Debbie Hockers, Betsy Scherer, Erin Janssen, and Susie Troup added their precision and poise to the squad (— and their legs weren’t bad either). The group of Pennings seniors was or¬ ganized by Stuart Romenesko and the Stu¬ dent Council to give the girls more voice at the games. They accomplished this and had a great time in the p rocess.

The squad had only twenty-one members and was occasionally short-handed in a few events. The first competition was the DePere indoor meet, with Pennings, DePere, and West DePere high schools participating. The Squires came away with the DePere title, kicking off the season in a grand style. " This team had a lot of heart,” said coach Al Groves. The group went on to do well in the conference meets. The Squires were led throughout the season by junior shot putter Tony Teske, and sprinter Bill Schneider, discus man Rob Teske, and hurdler Herb Cuene, all seniors. Cuene achieved honors at the state meet, taking third place in both the high and low hurdles. 1. Tim Stanley awaiting the meet to begin. 2. Remarkable sprinter Bill Schneider. 3.

Thus the treshman team was often called upon to fill in. The JV squad ran only four meets, losing in three of them. One bright spot in the JV season was sophomore Chris Royal, who set the record in the 220 . The freshman team had a better year. Some of the leading performers were Pete Baugnet in distance running, Al Matzke in sprints and the shot put, Todd Gregoire in sprints and discuis, and Chris Badciong in ■, ■ ■ TENNIS TENNIS TEAM REBUILDS This year’s Pennings tennis team fin¬ ished third in the conference. In some ways, this was rather surprising. Coaches Leo Crowley and John Mills took the reigns this year with only two members remain¬ ing from last season’s squad. They suc¬ ceeded in rebuilding a team that was good enough to compile a 9-5 record. The membership consisted of one sen¬ ior, four juniors, one sophomore, and a freshman. The Squires were led by the performances of John Steckart who re¬ ceived conference honors in singles com¬ petition, and the team of Pete Reinhart and Bryan Badciong who earned honors in doubles.

There were approximately four teams representing each class in the basketball competition. The make-up of the program was unique this year since the students themselves coordinated the activity pro¬ viding referees, score-keepers, statisti¬ cians, and fun for everyone throughout the entire season. Adding to the excite¬ ment of the sport was the fight for tro¬ phies which were awarded to each mem¬ ber of the first-place teams. The racquetball season was filled with suspense up until the last match which determined the champions of the league. The Van De Kreeke-Wahl combination edged the Vanden Busch-Jones duo to win the first-place position. Coordinated by Fr. Van De Kreeke, the racquetball season was quite successful with many players participating. Low fees enabled more stu¬ dents to enjoy the sport. Bowlers had an interesting season as they watched the faculty members Mr. Oettinger, Fr. LaLuzerne, Fr. McKeough, and Fr. Vanden Busch roll to a first-place finish. The second-place team consisted of Mr. Tessner, Fr. Meehan, Jim Oettinger, and Tim Sausen. Trophies were awarded to the people who earned high series, high game, high average, and most-improved. Winners of these awards were Ron Anton- neau, Jim Byers, Joe Heitzmann, and John Ploen, respectively. 81 STUDENT COUNCIL DEDICATION, PLANNING MAKE FOR COUNCIL ACHIEVEMENTS It was another full year for the Abbot Pennings Student Council. A well-rounded membership and a weH-orientated student body made it also a successful year. The activities began in June with a fund-raising effort at St. Norbert College that left the treasury with enough money to operate trouble-free throughout the year. In July the Council officers and some interested students, along with Fr. Mee¬ han, migrated north for a weekend of reflection and planning for the upcoming school term. Freshman orientation started things off in the fall. The event, organized mainly by Stuart Romenesko, was a first at Pennings this year. Homecoming festivities were again suc¬ cessful, with the dance being held in the St. Norbert College Union. Planning Home¬ coming is the biggest function of the Council during the schooi year, and virtu¬ ally every member became involved. Committee chairman Tom Jones was in charge of organizing convocations. Speak¬ ers included alumnus Jeff Matzke on the value of a Pennings education, Jim McCar¬ thy on cults, and Fr. Mike Carroll on Christian youth. Committee chairman Bob Manders can be credited for leading the effort in bring¬ ing the 1981 Talent Show from its infant stages into being the highlight of the win¬ ter. The Tri-School Christmas dance also met with unprecedented success. One ma¬ jor disappointment of the Council’s year, however, was the annual marathon bas¬ ketball game against the Key Club, which saw the Council go down to a bitter de¬ feat. it wasn’t until the international conven KEY CLUB MOST SUCCESSFUL KEY CLUB IN YEARS had been. But in New Orleans what a few people had known became public know¬ ledge — the Pennings Key Club was among the top groups in North America. The Key Club was awarded an honorable mention in the achievement contest — one of the most coveted prizes in all of Key Club. Senior Stuart Romenesko also received the Sandy Ninninger Award at the district convention. This honor is given to the most outstanding Key Clubber in Wis¬ consin and Upper-Michigan. The club raised $1,500 in their annual bowl-a-thon. This money was donated to Cerebral Palsy. Members of the club also visited nursing homes and socialized with the handicapped of the area every week. A Drug and Alcohol Abuse program was in¬ dent I taken into local grade schools during the 1981-82 school year. Key Clubbers also served the communi¬ ty through such efforts as the Kiwanis Special Day for Special People, and the Wisconsin Special Olympics. Fr. Roger Vanden Busch deserves a lot of credit for his " behind the scenes” advising of the most productive Key Club in recent years. a. ■w” t j 86 1.

Angelo Feldkamp as the yearbook advisor, and once again the product is superior to any in its class. Making the book even better than it has ever been before was 1981 ARGOS Editor Jim Waldkirch, who pulled out all stops to his brilliance in creating the wear’s edition. Waldkirch was aided by Dan Rice on photography, Nick Ferris on the subscrip tion drive and layout, Pat Van Hefty on layout, Ryan Kane on advertising, Peter Petitjean as sports editor, and Tom Jones as copy editor, not to mention a veritable army of photographers, writers, artists, and salesmen. The combined effort of all has created a superior product to be treasured in the years to come. The LANCE had a fine year under the direction of Tom Wood and Dan Tarrence. The paper was issued six times over the school year — once at the end of each quarter and twice in May. The end of the year saw junior Mike Bie taking the reign of editor, beginning his post for the 1981-82 school year, while Wood stepped aside to publish the senior edition. The LANCE staff remained consistent in the quality of its copy; the layout im¬ proved every issue; and a few staff mem¬ bers — Dan Tarrence, Phil Smith, Paul Hillen, and Tom Wood — received awards for their writing skills. With the cancella¬ tion of a $100 debt to the Student Coun¬ cil, the paper was no longer in the red. GUYS SWING CHOIR GALS ' PATH LEADS AWARDS The 1981 “Guys and Gals, " better known as the Swing Choir, started the season with new and promising members. Mr. Don Richter returned to the music department after an absence of two years to lead the group in gaining honors. He joined Mrs. Teresa Schmidt, the ensem¬ ble’s choreographer. Together they suc¬ cessfully guided the performers to an ex¬ citing and greatly rewarding year by win¬ ning the best musical award and placing second in class " A " at the St. Norbert College Annual Swing Choir Carnival. The choir achieved this goal by out-performing eighteen other swing choirs from around the state. Their seventy shows throughout the year consisted of appearances at area nursing ho mes, supper clubs, schools, pri¬ vate parties, and the Port Plaza Mall. Performances were also done at the Pen- nings Christmas and Spring Concerts, and the St. Joseph Academy graduation. 1.

CHORUS VARSITY CLUB SINGERS ATHLETES TAKE ROAD Under the direction of Mr. Don Richter, the Squire Chorus had a good year. He was very pleased with their " hard work and cooperation " — which all paid off in the concerts offered to the Pennings com¬ munity. The Christmas program was well received, as was the Spring Concert — the latter performed in the school gym for the sake of different sound. School-wide liturgies were also enhanced by the Cho¬ rus’ efforts. The culmination of the year was the earning of a first place in class “A” at the Wisconsin Concert Group Music Festival. Membership in the APHS Varsity Club is open to those who have earned an athletic letter tor performance on a varsity team. Based on a supposed interest in matters associated with athletics, the purpose of the organization is to serve the Squire community in these affairs. Thus some of the Homecoming concerns and the sports programs are handled by the wearers of the Green and White. All service to the betterment of Pen¬ nings is appreciated, and the efforts of the school’s letter-winners are counted among the valued. down to the Allouez Anchors 3-2. These events ail led up to the Home¬ coming dance. The affair was held rather close to home, in the Sensenbrenner Me¬ morial Union at St. Norbert College. Many couples from all four classes danced and enjoyed the music of the band High Flyer. The evening came to a climax with the crowning of Homecoming Queen Betsy Scherer by King Jeff Kaftan. Following the coronation, the king and queen led their honorary court in a dance to the song First Time — the theme of the occasion. Thanks to well-organized planning on the part of the Student Council, Homecoming 1980 was made to be an event to remem¬ ber. HOMECOMING SQUIRE HOMECOMMG it FIRST TIME !! The highlight of the fall of 1980 had to be the annual Homecoming celebration. The weekend turned out to be a success financially and in other areas. The event began long before the actual date in October, with each of the four classes getting organized to build floats for the parade to Minahan Stadium. The winner of the float contest was the fresh¬ man class with the theme Another One Bites the Dust The class of ’84 also won the cheering competition at half-time of the football game. The weekend was a triumph on the football field as the Squires blasted the Marinette Central Cavaliers by a score of 20-2. The soccer team, however, went L The winning frosh float. 2.

The evening’s entertainment CONVOCATIONS COUNCIL HOSTS THREE SPEAKERS The Student Council has many func¬ tions throughout the year. One of these is making the arrangements for occasional convocations. This year the committee, headed by junior Tom Jones, scheduled three speakers to address the student dy. The first of these was a presentation on cults by Mr. Jim McCarthy, who shared some insights into identifying and avoiding cults. His remarks were underscored at the previous evening’s Council meeting when SJA alumna Gil Janssen, sister of senior Council member Greg Janssen, dis¬ cussed some of her experiences with the Unification Church. She emphasized to the Council the importance of Mr. McCarthy’s message. The second speaker was Mr. Jeff Matzke, a former Pennings student. Mr. Matzke spoke during Catholic Schools Week on the importance of a Catholic education. He drew some comparisons be¬ tween APHS and the public system to show just how good a Pennings education is. Fr. Mike Carroll was the final speaker of the year. Fr. Mike is the youth coordina¬ tor of the Green Bay Diocese. He encour¬ aged the student body to get more in¬ volved in Catholic youth activities. ■ TOWS’,;; t •••.•••••-v;i y ■ ' • i ■ • - - . .. ■ »; V- .

The event, organized by Stuart Ro menesko for the Student Council, was an experience for all the freshmen as well as the staff. novice Squires and an introduction in their new school. After these preliminaries, the students headed to Camp Tivoli for a day of fun and learning. The freshmen listened to speeches by some of the outstanding members of the class of ' 81 who shared their insights into the APHS community. Some of the enjoyment of the after¬ noon centered around the seniors throw¬ ing the youngsters and select faculty members into the swimming pool. Fr. Feld- kamp put up the biggest fight, but in the end was as wet as the others. The special day ended with a bus ride back to Pennings and the all-school Mass at St. Francis Church. yEpSt I A r 4 .

TRI-SCHOOL CHRISTMAS DANCE SETS PACE Once again the three student councils of Pennings, Premontre, and the Academy cooperated to organize the annual Tri- School Chr istmas Dance. The affair was quite successful, recording the largest at¬ tendance ever in the event’s four-year history. The officers from each of the schools were pleased. The evening’s entertainment was by the talented and well-known McCormick Com¬ pany, which added to the enjoyment of the occasion; this may have been one of the reasons for profits realized from the party for each participating school. The festivi¬ ties took place at the Riverside Ballroom which seemed to accommodate the crowd quite adequately. The Christmas Dance was just one of the activities put together by the three councils, and its success sets the pace for future tri-school functions. H i V 1.

TALENT SHOW BARBARA SWEEP CROWD FEET Treacherous winter weather was enough to cancel school on February 10, but it was not enough to stop over 300 people from packing into the Pennings auditorium for the third annua! Talent Show sponsored by the Student Council. A standing-room-only crowd was enter¬ tained by eight competing acts and a com¬ plimentary performance by the Swing Choir. MCs Bob Manders, Bill Schneider, and John McMonagle kept the show run¬ ning smoothly — or at least running between acts. They were aided by special guest star Barney of Channel 1 I s Bor- ney ' s Clubhouse, and extra special guest superstar Waldo the Magnificent. Planning for the show began early in November. By the end of Christmas vaca¬ tion committee chairman Bob Manders was ready to recruit talent. The efforts resulted in an hour-and-a-half of great en¬ tertainment. Joe Champ and Dan Kiedinger won the first-place check with their special inter¬ pretation of Neil and Barbara ' s song You Don ' t Bring Me Flowers. The Dirty Dozen was second with a medley of ’50’s tunes, and the Swing Choir Girls won third with a collection of popular songs. 99 MUSICAL WEST STORY has gained a reputation of quality in years past, and 1981 was no exception. The emotional We st Side Story was this sea¬ son’s play. The director-producer combination of Mr. William Bauknecht and Mr. Don Rich¬ ter was reunited after Richter’s two-year absence from Pennings. The pair had been looking to put on West Side Story since the mid-seventies. " It was the most difficult play that we have ever attempted,” said Richter. The difficulty, however, was met by tremen¬ dous effort by all involved. Tryouts for the musical were held much earlier than in other years, with auditions taking place in mid-December, rather than in the spring. (continued on page 102) V sf. TOO MUSICAL (continued) Months before opening night Shirley Van was busy with the cast, working on the difficult choreography that is a hall¬ mark of the show. Alumnus Scott Berko- vitz returned as stage manager to lend his expertise to the crew. Lighting was again taken care of by Mr. Tessner, while ticket sales and publicity were handled by Mr. Pigeon. The orchestra for the production was scaled down to a piano, organ, and two percussionists because of the intricacy of the music. The final product, however, was magnificent. Senior Dan Kiedinger and junior Rita ionet played the main characters, Tony and Maria, with overwhelming energy, while seniors Tom Millett and Jim Adair as the rival gang leaders stirred audiences with their realistic portrayals. The success of the musical was reflect¬ ed by ticket sell-outs for each of the five performances, but there was a more memorable measure of accomplishment each night just before the final applause. After the last actor had left the stage following the emotional closing scene of the drama, and even after the house lights had been turned on, there remained a permeating stillness in the auditorium — the sound of an awestruck audience.

The picnic grossed over $19,000 for the school. After expenses were paid, the amount cleared was still over $12,000. Needless to say, the administration was quite pleased. Just about everyone in the Squire fam¬ ily was involved in some way in the prep¬ aration or execution of the affair. The Parents ' Club, and in particular chairman Mr. Jerry Wagner, took on the task of organizing the efforts. The raffle was the biggest money gain¬ er. Organized by Mrs. David Donarski, it netted over $5,000. Again this year it was the responsibility of the student body to sell tickets. Beyond being a financial success, the picnic represented an ongoing sign of the generosity of the Pennings community. v m 4 l ' ' ; - - - 3 - f0r 104 w , •• as . l.. . - - wm t w.
