Andrean High School - Decussata Yearbook (Merrillville, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 208 of the 1974 volume:

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others . . . Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time . . . many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune . . . Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself . You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. Desiderata — 1927 by Max Ehrmann ANDREAN HIGH SCHOOL MERRILLVILLE, INDIANA Theresa Wojkovich, Co-Editor Susan Zaloudek, Co-Editor Mr. Raymond DeFabio, Co-Moderator Sister Jeanne Ambre, SS.C.M., Co-Moderator TABLE OF CONTENTS 14 Academics 64 Organizations 158 Seniors 90 Sports 40 Student Life 120 Underclassmen It’s experimenting in life by testing established ideas and trying out new ones . . . It’s also being intelligent thinking abstractly and working for answers . . . Thinking thoughts that are too deep for emotions. It’s finding the insights to create meaning . . . Freely thinking being analytical yet Respecting and being tolerant of traditions. . . . being self-assured, confident and serene when obstacles are gambling against your favor It’s being relaxed and unfrustrated in a hectic, pressured world . . . Where only the tranquility from within can help deal with future problems THE INFLUENCE OF EXAMPLE . . . take kindly the counsel of the years . . . One of the major influences on a student is not what he is told, but what he sees. Through the excellent example of our administration headed by Father Schwenzer, the steady guidance of our counselors, and the Christian witness of our Theology classes, we have had many striking examples of Christian brotherhood and concern. These three forces have helped to form Andrean into the community it is and set the direction of Andrean’s future toward that which is desired. Sister M. Jeanne, SS.C.M.

C rescent ia, SS.C.M., and Mrs. Hazel Moorhouse UNDERSTANDING EACH OTHER . . . observe the virtue and goodness that surrounds you . . . Being able to understand others is integral to the success of any person in the world today. Because of this, learning to communicate is one of the specific goals set for all Andrean students. English teaches us the art of communicating with those around us through both the spoken and written word; Social Studies links us with our forefathers; and Foreign Languages expose us to the ways and cultures of other peoples. With a well-rounded awareness of varied cultures, the accomplishments and failures of past generations, the wealth of literature, and our own creativity, we begin to understand that which is desired. 22 — Academics Academics — 23 Academics — 25 26 — Academics Academics — 27 EXERCISING THE ARTS . . . keep interested in your own career, it is a real possession in the changing patterns of time . . . Andrean, as an educational institution, does not function just to assist students in accumulating knowledge, but also encourages, through the Arts, a high degree of student self-expression. Through such courses as Art, Mechanical Drawing, Music, Clothing, and Foods, students “do their own thing” in expressing themselves, while Typing, Shorthand, and Bookkeeping students busily substantiate the adage “practice makes perfect.” These courses not only teach the basics of their particular fields but stimulate a high degree of creativity and performance among the individual students. Developing skills and exercising talents are two satisfying and fulfilling aspects of that which is desired. Academics — 33 34 — Academics MANAGING THE UNIVERSE ... no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should be .. . Comprehension of the physical world around and within you and an under- standing of operations with numbers are the two specific goals of the science and mathematics departments, respectively. From the detailed studies of cell mitosis to the laws of gravity, from cosine and sine values to the graphing of functions, both departments offer a broad curriculum of courses and a vast resource of knowledge. When the wonders of the two are combined, the complexity of the universe is seen in the actual ordered and simple state in which it was created. We find a tool, beautiful and intricate, useful in accomplishing that which is desired. 36 — Academics 38 — Academics ■ -v i ' ■■.■ ; OCTOBER RUSH AND ROYALTY HOMECOMING 73 was filled with dreams, hopes, tears, and napkins. Sophomores, the teachers, coached the Freshmen in the way of the chicken wire and napkin. High-spirited Juniors pulled together to decapitate an oversized hornet. Excited rivalry burst into Gilroy Field. 42 — Student Life At the end of the line now. it was the Seniors ' turn to continue tradition. A giant pumpkin coach drawn by two Clydesdale horses and complete with coachmen and red and gold heralds led the exuberant caravan down Broadway. Intermittent rain and a cold wind appeared to be the only dampers on the evening until the Niners lost on a rain-soaked grid. Studi-nl I ifc 43 Half-time saw the first appearance of the Ninerettes, followed by the procession of floats. Anticipation mounted as the candidates and their escorts approached the fifty yard line. Due to difficulties with the microphone, everyone but the candidates heard the announcement of the queen. Moments later, the golden coach returned to carry the 1973 Homecoming Queen, Gerri Smith. The court and their escorts: Pam Lennertz and Paul McGuan, Patty Rees and Greg Doneff, Gerri Smith and Craig Collins, Mary Jo Black and John Cicco, Ellen Bushemi and Mike Manno. The award-winning comedy by George F. Kauffman and Moss Hart was presented on November 9, 10, and 11. Under the excellent direction of Father Joseph Moffatt, the curtain parted to reveal the splendid efforts of cast and crews.

Religion. Structurally speaking, Andrean looks like a normal, everyday type, American high school. However, Andrean is not an “average” school. It is not because it goes one step further and calls itself the Andrean Community. Retreats, daily mass and communion, and prayers before classes don’t make all the difference. A community needs people sharing and growing through each other. By seeing the universe unfold through each other, by seeing the universe unfold through others, the Andrean student sees the universe unfold through God Himself. 48 — Student Life Student Life — 49 50 — Student Life Tropical foliage and over-sized dice and playing cards carried out the theme of this year’s Turnabout, “Tropicana Casino.” From 8 to 11, two hundred couples tried their luck on the dance floor to the music of Shades of Time. f ' | m r ' 1 L ' ■ ' v ■■ I ? 1 1 m f » If y.y£ ' JS : ' . . .AND NO ONE COULD BE PROUDER A long and winding road greeted hopeful eyes and promised a wonderful evening of punch and boogie for those gathered to celebrate the glorious victories and hard defeats of the 1973 teams. 52 — Student Life Ice cream sodas, silhouettes. Free Verse, and an Old Fashioned Love Song touched off Froshmore Night with a bit of nostalgia for a booming success. Student Life — 53 WE MAY NEVER PASS THIS WAY AGAIN Elegant gowns, tuxedos, nosegays and boutonnieres highlighted each excited couple at Canterbury Theatre. The beginning of the end was at hand; the last great Senior get- together before graduation was over almost before it began. The Junior-Senior Prom was just a fraction, a second in the year’s activities, but an event to be remembered for many years. OLIVER! • .

Much spirit was displayed on the part of all teams. Victory came to the Juniors with the Freshmen not far behind. Sophomores came in with a hardy (and hearty) third, while the Seniors dropped to fourth place. Armageddon has traditionally been an outlet for the tension built up during the year and increased by its near end. This year’s finale was a tremendous mud-sling-and-slide in which most participated; even the unwilling were victims. Even without a victory, the Seniors presented royalties at the evening sock hop. 60 — Student Life COMPETITION PLUS I’M YOURS IN BUTTONS ‘N’ BOWS The annual Clothing Style Show was a delightful display of perseverance and talent, evident in everything from formal wear, to sportswear, to cuddly nightgowns. Not only the girls, but the parents and friends who enjoyed the show, were proud of the accomplishments. SHARP SKATING BRINGS ACCLAIM Three is a charm, as this, the third year of the Gary Griffins resulted in their winning the 1st place slot in two leagues: Northern Indiana and Michiana H. S. Hockey Leagues. Clad in red and gold, under the dedicated leadership of Father David Klein, the team skated and scored their way to a coveted record of 29-1-1. Student Council Officers: R. Waddell, Secretary; M. Mulloy, Treasurer; P. Rees, Vice-President; L. Shirley, President. Action ’64 was this Student Council’s biggest success. Substituting the Four Seasons for Chubby Checkers, short hair for pony tails, and T-shirts for leather jackets — the signs of the 60’s for those of the 50’s — was a dubious decision but one that was well worth making. Selling carnations on Valentine’s Day was another first for the Student Council. Over two hundred flowers were sold and more were in demand. The proceeds went to the Heart Association for its annual fund drive. Other Council activities were the sponsoring of student exchanges, pep assemblies, and sock hops, including the now annual masquerade dance on Halloween. 66 — Organizations NEW IDEAS DEVELOP NEW TRENDS Organizations — 67 CHARACTER SCHOLARSHIP LEADERSHIP SERVICE 68 — Organizations The qualifications of National Honor Society are the intangible, sometimes undefinable qualities of leadership, character, scholarship, and service. For the member, however, these qualities find actualization in the activities sponsored by N.H.S. Fine Arts Day in the spring and tutoring the year round provide the opportunities for interested and ambitious students to give of their talents and time to help others culturally and intellectually. Organizations — 69 EVERYONE LOVES A PARTY Few are more willing to give of their time, energy, and money for others than the Youth Association for Retarded Children. Holiday parties, bake sales, and unsurpassed effort by all made the club’s activities time well spent. Y.A.R.C. Officers: D. VanCleef, Secretary; B. Knies, President; M. Shediak, V-Pres.; M. Tournai, Treasurer. 70 — Organizations STUDENTS PRACTICE POLITICS Board of Directors: T. Smar, M. Plucinik, B. Bojarski, S. Mullin, D. Bianco, A. Heltsley. Andrean’s Political Action Club serves as an outlet for concerned students who take an interest in political affairs. This year, they proposed a new Student Council Constitution. Last summer’s Hoosier State delegates were: L. DeGan, T. Conde, L. Shirley, T. Wojkovich, R. Ruzga and L. Martin. Organizations — 7 1 THE BAND MARCHES ON . . . Concert Band Members: Front Row: C.

A trip to Canada, three concerts and the grade school tour highlighted activities for the Andrean Music Department this year. Success dominated the activities including the traditional Mardi Gras. Under the guidance of Reverend Joseph Moffat and Mr. Rolando Chilian, the department spent two days in Canada on tour and presented band and choral concerts throughout the year. Marches, classical and popular music were performed before parents and students alike. Stage Band Members: J. Harris, Piano; J. Wiedemann, N. Griffin, H. James, K. Chalko, K. Burke, Saxophones; S.

Working into a lively repertoire of classical and contemporary works, Mr. Chilian created an enjoyable, yet disciplined learning experience for the Girls’ Choral. Organizations — 77 BEHIND THE SCENES Variety is exciting, as were the Drama Club’s two productions: the comedy You Can ' t Take It With You presented in November, and the spring musical, Oliver! Only the hard-working casts and crews know the number of days that went into each well-built set and difficult scene that climaxed in the few hours of audience enjoyment “on stage.” Drama Club officers were: Janet Hudock, President; Tom Conde, Vice-President; Laurie Atzhorn, Secretary. ACTIVE CONCERN The Business Club gave its members valuable working experience through the opportunity of doing “jobs” for their teachers. They stress not only training but service. Even as it became more difficult, Mission leaders succeeded in aiding many missions that asked for our support. Mission Representatives: D. Rettig, K. Pazak, M. P. Hughes, and J. Barker. Organizations — 79 “WE LIKE OUR TEAMS 9 Booster Club, which drums up enthusiasm in sports without actively participating in the sport, promotes the spirit of the school. The colorful and imaginative signs which line the corridors before the games, were part of their team backing, which the players agreed, helped inspire them to give their all. As an added attraction the Booster Club introduced the Ninerettes, a fresh idea promoting team spirit. Officers : From Left: B. Cogelja, S. Singel, K. Rupp, D. Hazi. 80 — Organizations BOX THE BRICKIES Equipped with uniforms and pom-poms of red and gold, the Ninerettes were seen on football fields and the gym floor arousing the spectator’s enthusiasm, as well as assisting at school functions. With the joint efforts of Miss Trapane and Mrs. Mestrich, their moderators, the forty girls have found a prominent place in Andrean’s athletic activities. Organizations — 8 1 FIGHTING FEMALES Basketball, Volleyball, Powder Puff Football and Track are just a few of the many activities that the Girls’ Athletic Association undertook in ’73-’74. G.A.A. also sponsored the most successful dance of the year, Tropicana Casino. Under Miss Kay Spencer’s direction the girls got together for a winning season. G.A.A. Officers: E. Gregory, Vice President; K. Tracy, President; D. Hazi, Treasurer; M. Voss, Secretary; D. Henry, Publicity. CE OUI ESI DESIRE The French Club serves as an outlet of expression for not only the lover of the language, but the French culture as well Excursions to Chicago included two French plays, and an exploration of the Art Institute. Each trip finished with an enjoyable lesson in French cuisine. French Club Officers: S. Sheffer, President; P. Kacmar, Vice-President; B. St. Germain, Treasurer; P. Teso, Secretary. WHAT MOVE WOULD YOU MAKE? Don Kaminski, John Kopchik, and Tony Farag led the chess team to victory. On an individual level, this highly competitive game requires extreme concentration and skill. The team has proved that they have mastered these fundamentals by going undefeated and wrapping the year up in winning a five round tournament. Organizations — 83 GIRLS AND PARENTS JOIN IN FUN Officers: From Left: Joanne Simatovich, Michelle Cieskiewicz, Eleanor Nawrocki, and Joan Shonski. As in previous years, Daddy Date Night was the biggest success for the Future Homemakers of Andrean. Held on Saint Patrick’s Day, a bit of the old Irish touched every Dad and his daughter. As an added feature, Mary Beth Gianoli was presented the Betty Crocker award for attitude. In November a Mother’s Mass was held complete with entertainment provided by the Kitchenetters. The girls along with Mrs. Wamsher, their moderator, visited an orphanage, and brought the year to a close selling pizzas at Armageddon. 84 — Or ganizations Organizations — 85 PUBLICATIONS GET The Decussata staff of ’74 learned a lot about responsibility. Not that we had any intention of doing so, but that it was necessary for the production of the book. Meeting deadlines was not as easy as it sounded when we mentioned them in passing during the workshops. Needless to say, the deadlines were met and we leave the finished product in your hands. Co-Editors: Sue Zaloudek and Theresa Wojkovich. Staff: P. Battistini, L. Beckham, C. Brockschmidt, L. Daniel, M. B. Gianoli, P. Kratkowski, D. Kutzer, E. Nawrocki, C. Poncsak, P. Rees, K. Rupp, R.

Zambory. 86 — Organizations IT TOGETHER Under the direction of Sister Gilmary, the Acropolis strove to inform the student body of current happenings. Having at least three years of experience behind them, the staff learned many of the finer points of journalism. With a second place award from the Columbia Press Association, the staff ended ' 13-14 looking forward to a first place in ’75. Co-Editors: M. J. Black, K. Page, E. Hennessy, L. Szmutko. Photographer: M. Strimbu. Organizations — 87 A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING From the first assembly of the year, the opening Mass, to the “final stand” for the Seniors at graduation, assemblies provided entertainment, communal prayer, and a welcome release from classes. The National Theatre Company, The Navy Jazz Band, Mr. Wizard of Purdue, and the Olympic Judo-Karate School provided valuable learning experiences for the entire student body. 88 — Organizations Organizations — 89 A DESIRE TO WIN The 59er’s varsity football record this season was 6-4 overall, and second place in the Northwest Conference. The 23-3 defeat suffered at the homecoming game against Lew Wallace caused the team a loss in the battle for Northwest Conference supremacy. Headhunters for this year’s defense were Russ Capellari, tackle Mike Saffa, and junior end Mike Daugherty. Offense was sparked by Pat Malayter, Bob Kunas, and Arnie Gough. The varsity squad is said to be a lucky team for having a coach with as much love for his team as Coach Pete Billick. Because of all that he has done to make the season successful. Coach Billick is highly respected. The fans thank the coaching staff and the entire team for their perseverance, hard practice, and unity which altogether provided an exciting season.

Sports — 95 FROSH CONTINUE TRADITION It seems that once a tradition is started, it cannot be stopped too easily. For the fifth consecutive season the Frosh team has won the Northwest Conference title. With the fine coaching of Father Menner and Mr. Nicolini and the great running abilities of half-back Mel Gore, the team ended the season with a 7-0-1 record. The Frosh team has brightened the future of football at Andrean. Andrean’s freshmen have now lost once in the last forty-three games. Bottom, L. to R.: J. Driscoll, T. Seibal, L. Billick, M.

Sports — 97 The cross country team, under the excellent coaching of Fr. Ward and behind the strong running of Tim James, captured the Gary City Meet for the second consecutive year. Their dual meet record was a respectable 9 wins and 3 losses. The nucleus of the team was comprised of returning lettermen Tim James, Tom Walla, and Tom Paulson. The other five runners who contributed to the team were Ralph Duenas, Jeff Taylor, Jerry Mulloy, Steve Miller and Greg Nowesnick. These runners each won fifth place or higher during the season. In the 16 Team Sectional Field (112 runners) Andrean finished sixth. However, individual effort by Tim James earned him a place in the regional lineup. He finished three seconds behind the winner of second place. Bottom, L. to R.: D. Hientz, S. Miller, T. Paulson, T. James, T. Walla, J. Lakne: Second Row: J. Gomez, G. Nowesnick, M. Hallet, S.

They finished the season with a 12-3 record for the last five years. Senior Captain, Ben Milbrath, who led the team, captured the Gary City Singles Crown. Pete Milbrath, Marty Mulloy, Tim Sheeran, Bob Onda, Tom Gundy, and Ernie Blando composed the varsity team for the season. Six of the seven Varsity players will return in 1974. With a strong reserve team, Andrean’s tennis future seems bright. 100 — Sports Sports — 101 VARSITY TEAM HAS TOUGH SEASON This year’s varsity basketball team had a rough time. Their regular season record of 7-12 was not bad, though, considering that only one starter returned from last year’s team. This year was a year of rebuilding, bringing with it two sophomores (P. Liber and P. Patterson.) The leaders of the team were M. Manuel, highest scorer, T. Bukur, leader of assists, and J. Dougherty, one of the best rebounders yet. The two coaches, Dan Rogovich and Mike Chelap, led a courageous battle despite misfortune. Bottom, L. to R.: (mgr.) J. Levenda, P. Patterson, R. Dorulla, D. Chube, T.

Highlighting the season was the first win ever over Gary Roosevelt. G. Bruce led the reserves in scoring while D. Chube ran a close second. K. Collins and J.

Sports — 113 ANOTHER SEASON TEES OFF Andrean golfers went on to win the city championship for the third straight year, and qualified for regionals for the second year in a row. The Northwest Conference champs were led by 5- time match medalist Scott Vidimos whose season’s average for 9 holes was 39.8. By placing second in the Regionals, the golfers qualified for the state finals. Our fourth place finish in the team standings was highlighted by Scott Vidimos winning the individual state title. This is the first time Andrean has had a golf team in the state finals. Sophomore Larry Koval, Juniors Mark Matovina and Dan Sik ich, and Seniors Tim Matovina and Gerry Roszkowski rounded out the team. The experience gained this year by the new members of the team will prove valuable in continuing the success of Andrean golfers. Bottom, L. to R.: T. Matovina, G. Roszkowski, S. Vidimos, M. Matovina, D. Fissinger; Top, L. to R.: L. Koval, M. Bobin, D. Sikich, R. Fransioli, Coach Mike Chelap, T. Staehle, T. Wood. 1 14 — Sports INTRAMURALS DEVELOP SLOWLY Fr. Klein made an attempt to organize intramural football, basketball, and soccer teams this year, but was disappointed in the lack of interest. The football teams that were organized were composed of sophomore homerooms and a team made up of members of the Gary Griffins, which captured the championship title. In basketball, seniors did not show much enthusiasm. The senior boys only had two homerooms competing: rooms 214 and 23 1 . The senior championship was won by room 214. In the junior boys’ basketball, homeroom 2 1 8 won the championship game. As in football, the sophomores division showed a lot of enthusiasm. The freshman boys entered their own All-Star team in the sophomore division and much to the chagrin of the sophs, won the sophomore championship. An attempt was made to form a soccer team but lack of interest barred the development. 116 — Sports Sports — 117 BASKETBALL WRESTLING VARSITY ANDREAN OPPONENT 58 Gary Roosevelt 64 59 Wirt 47 65 Lew Wallace 73 85 River Forest 71 64 West Side 84 65 Merrillville 80 50 Hammond High 84 41 Horace Mann 53 61 Crown Point 62 54 Portage 45 49 Chesterton 50 47 Hammond Morton 64 84 Horace Mann 74 80 Mishawaka Marion 58 57 Hobart 53 48 Hammond Clark 66 79 Calumet 70 57 Emerson 87 66 Laf.
