For now , we are students at Andrean High School. We call ourselves Niners, short for Fifty Niners, derived from the fact that our school first opened in 1959, and from our address, 5959 Broadway, Merrillville, Indiana. But what are Niners ? Niners are students. We are enthusiastic, reluctant, outstanding, or struggling. But we return each year to continue the learning that will help us to become educated men and women in a world that will soon be our responsibility. Niners are builders. We begin in freshman year to build the foundation that will help us gain admission to colleges and career fields, and to develop the values and habits that will structure our lives. Niners are friends. We form friendships that last beyond the years we spend here. We encourage each other. We are generous in supporting missions and causes. We give our time and love to those who need us. Leaders . . . Christians . . . Musicians . . . $ All-Stars . . . 2 — Introduciioii Scientists . . . Hard Workers . . . Builders . . . Artists . . .

We participate enthusiastically in student government and school organizations. We compete energetically in athletic contests, in speech, essay, academic, and artistic events. Win or lose, we learn and grow from our experiences. Niners are Christians. Our theology classes here are only part of a long process of spiritual growth that will continue into our adult lives. We seek to learn and do God ' s will and to build a faith that we can share with others. In a world of conflict and confusion, our faith keeps us strong and free to use fully the gifts that God has given us. Who Can We Become? Introduction — S SUMMER SUMMER SUMMER Summer is the period Webster calls the time from the June solstice to the September equinox,” but students have a very different definition. It is the time when we enter the adult world of work and play for a short time. Instead of being industrious students, we become athletes, tourists, and employees. Some students traveled to Paris and Greece either with parents or friends. Others chose to see sights closer to home, such as the Indiana Dunes or Great America. Ambitious Niners set some of their free time aside for summer sports. Of course, all students, whether working or playing, read the books assigned for the English department’s reading enrichment program. After a summer of collecting souvenirs, snapshots, trophies, suntans, and spending money, we returned to Andrean in August, relaxed, refreshed, and ready for another year.

Summer — 15 Egyptian Summer During the summer the Andrean drama department produced the play, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The plot, taken from the book of Exodus, concerns the adventures of Joseph, son of Jacob, who was sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. Through Joseph’s ability to interpret dreams, he moved up the social ladder to a position as advisor to the Pharaoh. Years later, because of a drought in the land, Joseph’s brothers went to the Pharaoh for grain. Unrecognized by his brothers, Joseph tricked them, but in the end they were all reconciled and shared in Joseph’s wealth and prestige. This summer production gave several Andrean students the opportunity to enrich their vocal and dramatic abilities. For senior Michele David, The play gave me a constructive way to spend my summer and also a chance to meet many new people.” 16 — Summer Play The Swing of Things The girls’ golf season was short but successful. The Niner squad capped its season with a seven and four record. MVP Carolyn Burke led the team with five medals through their pre-sectional play. In a tough season schedule, the Niners, despite losses to MC Elston and state finalist MC Rogers, produced victories over two powerhouses, Merrillville and Chesterton. Though the team did not advance to regional play, Coach Landeck praised her team’s season. Our strong sophomore group really caught fire and added to the experienced upper class players to produce a great season.” UPPER LEFT: Kobjit Waranimman takes careful aim as she prepares to putt.

Smashing Success Coach Klora’s netmen kept up tradition by posting a ten win, six loss season. After the team lost their first three matches, they bounced back to win eight in a row and eleven of their last fourteen. Leading the team were singles players Rodger Jao, Nick Kohl, and Jeff McMichael. The doubles teams consisted of Mike Rosta and Bill Zelin at number one doubles and Craig Teske and Roderick Jao at number two. The number two doubles team finished unbeaten with an impressive record of twenty-two wins. Both doubles teams did well in area tourneys, including the Highland and the Lake Station doubles tournaments. Coach Klora said, It was an outstanding season.” UPPER: The tennis team members are.

Sports — 19 Leader of the Pack For most students, summer vacations last until the end of August, but not for the committed members of the Andrean boys’ cross country team. They return to school at the beginning of July to start training for a grueling season which continues through October. We really strove throughout the entire season to reach our final record of twelve wins and only three losses,” commented senior team member Mike Dailey. Under the direction of Mr. Mark Horvath, the team finished solidly in second place at sectionals. After advancing to regionals, the team just missed a berth in the semi-state competition.

In our first year we did quite well individually with many firsts by freshman Frances McMahon and junior Kristen Laskowski,” commented Coach Iatarola, but as a team we had our difficulties with a record of only one win and nine losses.” Yet, despite this record, the season ended on a high note. MVP Frances McMahon advanced to the regional competition where she placed sixteenth, barely missing a berth in the state finals.

Rev. John Whitley, the school’s principal, provides such leadership. He inspires all the students to do their best and rewards them for jobs well done. His encouragement and unwavering belief in Andrean and its students guide and inspire us. He is always prepared to listen to ideas or complaints and his door is open to any student who needs a sympathetic ear. His personal involvement with all of the students helps Andrean reach its highest potential. Assisting Fr.

Administration — 23 First Taste of Andrean Freshmen arrived on orientation day full of nervous expectation. First, they gathered in the gym to learn the rules and regulations. Next, they received schedules, bought books, and practiced opening their lockers with a little help from their friends. Then, the members of the class of 1988 gathered in the courtyard for the an- nual freshman picnic. As they entered, they were handed a name tag belong- ing to someone else. Then, they had to try and find that person. They played games, ate lunch, met their teachers, and made new friends. - 24 — Freshman Picnic Freshman Picnic — 25 Stanley Acosta Jim Allegretti Bernadette Arceo Jason Artemiuk Jenny Attar Hope Ayala Steven Azcona Dina Baccetti Kelli Bachich Mike Back Vanessa Balon Michael Bane Melody Baran Mike Barancyk Karen Barloga Mike Barney Bill Baron Dana Beasley Carol Beckmann Catherine Beiriger Mike Bellich Stacy Benka Kimberly Berry FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN David Bielefeld Jenny Binkley Joe Bishop Joyce Blachly Bridget Blake Matt Booker Christine Brack Richard Braun Mark Brengettcy Vic Brown Debbie Brzoska Brian Bujdoso Nicole Bukur Angela Burroughs Carol Burton Shane Bush Lisa Calloway Jennifer Campbell Victoria Candelaria Dawn Carpenter Kelly Carreno Brian Catherine Moira Chaseley 26 Freshmen Lisa Chiarella Eric Christe Michelle Clark Lisa Cleland Chad Close Kim Coady Scott Codespoti Lynn Compton Keiron Couret Jason Crawford Leslie Crosby Alayna D’Andrea Alexandre DaSilva Dawn Deck David DeEspinosa Amy Derdowski Moira DeRosa Siriporn Dhana Denise Dobogai Patty Doffin Kimberly Doolin Michael Dorris Greta Doumanian FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN Stephanie Drapac Jennifer Dudley Nicole Dynek Dean Easton Kathy Erickson Paul Falconburg Frank Fauser John Fife Todd Fitzgerald Pat Fleming Marian Frazzini Rob Freese Kenya Friday Kellie Gant John Gasaway Dan Giorgi John Gonzales Deborah Gonzalez Beth Gotch Chris Grandfield Stacey Granger Louie Green Andreana Greene Freshmen 27 Joel Gross Mary Grusak Thomas Guelinas Rosa Haddix Jim Halfman Mickey Haller Dale Hamann Beth Hammond Matt Hanlon Carlton Hargro Erika Harris Martita Harris Lucretia Harvey Nikki Hepworth Michelle Herd Eric Hiduke Meredith Hoefer James Houpt Christi Hruskovich Ann Huber Tracy Humes Wendy Hussey Shelley Hutka FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN Roy Isla Mary Jackson Jody Janke Michelle Jao Daniel Jimenez Andrea Johnson Kimberly Juskevice Angela Karabetsos Kris Katich Laura Kaufman Mark Kazimer Laura Kellar Kelly Kiel Dan Kilgore Michelle Kinasiewicz Lynn Klus Paul Kobza Michelle Kopp Jason Koulianos Kathy Kramek Mary Krienke John Kroepfl Erik Kullerstrand 28 Freshmen Greg Lach Verna LaGrant Robert LaMere Cheryl Lanfear Ericka Landon Patrick Laws Camille Lee Frederick Lee Tony Lenzo Rustin Lewis Ann Logothetis Patricia Longmore 1 - Gloria Lopez Tracy Luekens Quanda Major Julie Mako Tania Malilwe Brian Mallams Mark Marich Brendan Marr Maria Martinez Mary Massey Tanya Mathews FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN Debra Mattei John McCarthy Peter McCobb Erin McCracken Rosie McCullough Kris McGuire Frances McMahon Michael McQuillin Phillip Melvin James Metro Jonathan Mitchell Missy Mohan Brian Mosby Tom Nawrocki Natalie Negron Tracy Nelson Victoria Nicksic Mike Nigro Lisa Nocks Marianne Oates Blair O’Connor Martin Olesky Leah Ombac Freshmen 29 Nicole Onder Scott O’Neil Cindy Oresik John Ornelas Dan Owens Kristi Palansky Mike Pearson Shane Pearson Eva Pena Nilsa Perez Kevin Perfetti Dan Persic Eric Peterson Anil Pillay Allison Porterfield Chris Potter Lorraine Prenizny Leanne Price Chris Quenette Yolanda Rainge Bill Rakoczy Anthony Randolph Barbara Ratkay FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN Yolanda Reeves Mark Regan Monica Reibly Doria Restyanszki Tom Ring Fernando Rivera Jennifer Robertson Tonya Robinson Missy Rohrer Victoria Rondez Tom Rosta Julie Rothenberg Craig Rowe Debbie Ruesch Fred Ruiz Vershalle Ryan Diane Sabo I tor - £- Louis Samaniego Nicole Samarzija Zayda Sanchez Anne Sanders Peter Sawochka Anne Schafer 30 Freshmen Anne Schenher Ellen Schneider Yvonne Schneider T.

The booster club’s skits have included such memorable events as the volleyball game with coaches and teachers imitating our team and the kissing contest of blindfolded football players and their moms. Booster Club — 43 Spirit Unites Niners Even before the Homecoming game, Fifty-Niner spirit began to ignite. Each day of the preceding week was set aside to boost our spirits. Dress-up Day and Red and Gold Day were two examples. On the day of the game, a pep rally encouraged players as well as fans. On Friday night many students were part of the parade, which included the prize-winning junior float. Throughout the first half of the game, queen finalists, Jody Attar, Gail Francis, Carrie LaMere, Sylvia Lopez, and Mary Puntillo, awaited the announcement of the winner.

SPIRIT 46 — Sports Generating Qpirit Cheerleaders and poms are always there, come rain or shine, sleet or snow, to cheer on their teams. Cheering at games once or twice a week, however, is not all they do. Varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders attended United States Cheerleading Association camps at Valparaiso University and Indiana University. At Valparaiso the varsity squad received three first place awards and an all-around first place award that qualified them to compete nationally. The junior varsity attended camp at Indiana University, where they received three first place awards, a fourth place all-around, and a special spirit award. Miss Kathleen Burke, the squads’ sponsor, expressed her feelings about the girls with a smile: ' ' They’re good kids. Mine is an exciting job; it’s fun, and I’m having a good time.” The Ninerettes, through moderator Sr. Jane, also have a lot to do with bringing out the proud spirit of Andrean. The poms practice three times a week to perfect the winning routines they perform. During the summer, the poms went to camp where they competed and qualified for Nationals. Both the cheerleaders and the Ninerettes are responsible for generating much of Andrean’s school spirit. UPPER: Freshman cheerleaders are: Bottom, M. DeRosa, C. Lanfear, T. Nelson; Middle, M.

Guys and Dolls is a musical set in Havana and New York during the late forties and early fifties. The main characters are Sky Masterson, Sarah Brown, Nathan Detroit, and Miss Adelaide. Nathan, who runs a floating crap game in New York City, and his girlfriend, a night club dancer, have had a romance going on for years, and Adelaide wants to get married. Sky Masterson, Nathan’s friend, is a gambler who makes a bet with Nathan that he can convince Sarah, the head of the local mission, to go with him to Cuba. Sky wins his bet, and Nathan and Adelaide finally get married. The Hot Box Dancers were played by Shirley Calloway, Judy Ryan, Michelle Jao, Dawn LoVerde, Helen O’Connell, Jeanie Ring, Eva Pena, and Jeanne Walsko. The Crapshooters were played by Dan Oates, Sam Bunjan, Marty Kopil, Tom Mueller, J. J. Porterfield, and Brian Van Buskirk. The mission dolls were played by Toni Amico, Annette Jagiela, Allison Porterfield, Kate Sullivan, and Judy Ryan.

They also create an atmosphere of community and help classmates form closer friendships. They are organized and supervised by teachers and students who are members of Andrean’s active Campus Ministry. Although other classes had only one retreat, seniors had their choice of several — three overnight trips and a regular one-day retreat. Seniors who attended the Friday morning through Saturday afternoon retreats at Camp Lawrence in Valparaiso found them particularly meaningful and enjoyable. Organized activities such as hikes and discussion sessions filled the weekend schedule. Most of the students on the retreat agreed that they learned more about themselves and others on the weekend than they could have on a regular in-school retreat.

Fast-paced learning and challenging labs make these courses tough but rewarding. Mrs. Dustman agrees that AP students have to work hard to earn their grades. Members of the two classes can attest to that. I have my sights set on a career in chemical engineering,” says Maria Treyes, and AP chemistry has given me a glimpse of how tough and how exciting my college courses and my future career will be.” UPPER: A dissected grasshopper is the object of intense study for Francis Taylor and Sheryl Thomas in advanced biology class.

Science — 57 All in a Night’s Work The term paper is a wonderful experience, created by the international coffee cartel, intended to boost sales. Teachers usually give students about a month to complete their papers, but that small fact is irrelevant. The average student’s schedule is somewhat less extensive: One month before deadline: Student becomes emotionally prepared for the paper. T wo weeks before deadline: Student picks topic. Ten days before deadline: Student buys note cards, goes to library, finds out what other friends are doing their term papers on. Eight days before deadline: Student goes back to library, borrows library card from friend, checks out books on term paper subject. Seven days before deadline: Student begins taking notes on notecards. School attendance drops drastically. Such tasks as clipping fingernails, cleaning bedrooms, and watching the news suddenly become important. Six days before deadline: Student begins to acquire a taste for coffee and compares hours of sleep received with that of friends. The person who can go two days without sleep is considered a hero and role model. Coffee company stocks rise dramatically. Five days before deadline: All other schoolwork becomes irrelevant. Three days before deadline: Student digs typewriter out of attic and attempts to learn how to type in one night — gives up and reverts to the one-finger method. Two days before deadline: Student’s skin tone changes dramatically. T wenty four hours before deadline: Student begins typing at five p.m., continues until seven the next morning. Day of deadline: Student is in library throughout homeroom and half of first hour. Hour of final destiny: Student stumbles into classroom, vows to start earlier next year, turns in paper, sits down, lapses into coma. What does this exercise teach the student? Many things, including how to research, take notes, and write a research paper. It also teaches students one important rule: Never put something off until tomorrow if you can put it off until the day after tomorrow.

English — 59 Playing the Odds Although Andrean has no slot machines or roulette wheels, in one class the luck of the die determines part of the student’s grades. Like the high rollers in Las Vegas, Father Doser’s math students experience tension and suspense. Father rolls the die each day, and only those in the row whose number appears have to turn in their homework. Those who failed to finish their homework before class hold their breath until the die comes to a halt. Sighs of relief and moans of agony indicate whose row was called. Thus, each student has only a one in six chance of handing in homework each day. Father Doser enjoys the fact that I only have to correct one sixth of the class’s homework a night, and I can still keep a fairly close watch on all of my students.” Father Doser has been using this procedure for years, and most of his students agree that even with the roll of the die, their math grades almost always average out fairly.

The business department, headed by Miss Roseann Trapane, offers such courses as typing, accounting, finance, and shorthand. Mrs. Beck’s Office Procedures course allows students to experience the business world first hand. The class participates in a two week on-the- job program sponsored by the Merrillville Chamber of Commerce during second semester. They have also learned valuable word processing skills on Andrean computers. All business courses at Andrean prepare the student for the fast- paced business world which students will encounter following graduation. In a world in which nearly all careers involve some form of business, good business training is advantageous.

With a computer course a requirement for graduation, every student must take at least one semester of computer literacy or computer programming during his junior or senior year. to BASIC Andrean uses computers to help students, and students use computers to help Andrean. Basketball team statistician David Chary, for example, used his experience with computers to make a program to record statistics for every game. 1 % r y Mr. Mark Dvorscak Computer Programming Computer Literacy LEFT: The computer room is a beehive of activity.

Although not all Andrean students will pursue careers in government, seniors experienced a lesson in politics in Mr. Horvath’s government classes. For two weeks, class members became a mock Congress, submitting bills which were discussed during class. Fiery debates between Democrats and Republicans resulted in either the passing or killing of the bills. Bills concerning illegal immigration, missing children, and voting procedures were among those passed. After a bill was passed by a voice vote or hand count in each class, it went to President Horvath” for his official signature. Besides being fun and a welcome break from lectures and lessons, the mock Congress gave seniors a look at how America’s government works. Social Studies — 6 Learning Language Foreign language versions of the popular games of Monopoly® and Scrabble® can enhance learning for foreign language students. Amidst the demanding tasks of learning a new language, these games bring challenging fun and valuable lessons. A game of Scrabble® in Spanish class or the friendly competition of German Monopoly® helps break the monotony of declensions, dialogues, and grammar lessons. They help students learn new words and use their knowledge of the language in practical situations.

This renewal of the language occurred following a decline of Latin in the centuries after the fall of Rome. New languages were derived from Latin as it began to disappear, and the Catholic Mass was the last remnant of Latin as a spoken language. Latin in the classroom also declined over the years. But Latin at Andrean has made a comeback because of the dedicated work of Sister Paul, and Andrean now offers three years of Latin. Although Latin students may never speak Latin in their daily lives, it has many practical uses, such as in the medical field where many words are based on Latin. Sr. Paul SS.C.M.

Language — 67 68 — Lunch Lunching Visitors at Andrean are surprised to find that our cafeteria is segregated — boys on one side, girls on the other, a tradition that dates back to the days when Andrean was coinstitutional rather than coeducational. The rule separating boys and girls no longer exists, but students still enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of all-girl and all-boy dining areas. Occasionally, someone breaks with tradition and gravitates to the square tables by the windows where coed dining has become a custom — perhaps even the start of a new tradition. Another surprise awaiting an outsider who ventures in on Tuesdays is that many early lunchers are actually consuming cereal and milk. Ten-thirty is too early for lunch!” says Bob Fazekas. At that time in the morning I want Captain Crunch, not ravioli.” Science students who have D lunches every day complain that the menu is often curtailed by the time they reach the cafeteria and that all the good stuff is gone.” But D lunch has its compensations. Senior Cathy McGuckin says, At least we have four extra minutes to relax and enjoy whatever is left.” The biggest surprise awaiting a visitor, however, would be the round of applause given spontaneously to any poor soul who drops his tray — the bigger the crash, the more thunderous the applause. Real clods get standing ovations. UPPER LEFT: Students wait patiently in the seemingly endless lunch line.

Lunch — 69 Harmony Guided by two new teachers, Mr. Greg Jasek and Mr. Brian Carmody, the music department maintains a lively schedule. The band, directed by Mr. Jasek, performed at Southlake Mall at Christmastime, played for Bishop Gaughan’s induction Mass, and provided music for the many school Masses and pep assemblies. In addition to marching performances at football games and duty in the stands, the concert band also presented two concerts for the public. The choir, led by Mr. Carmody, took part in both concerts, performed at the Mall, and toured Catholic grade schools. They also provided music for school Masses. According to Sylvia Lopez, choir president, Andrean’s music program has helped all its participants improve their musicianship, both as individuals and as a group.

Fun and Fellowship The peer ministry and the mission club members have dedicated themselves to the service of others. The mission club, with the assistance of Fr. Cerretto, raises money for a leper colony in Bombay, India; sisters in Bolivia, Chile, and the interior of Brazil; a mission in Kenya; a seminary for future priests in Mexico; and the Slovak Institute in Rome, where clergy are educated to go behind the Iron Curtain. Peer ministry assists during class retreats. With the guidance of Mr. Cessna and Miss Burke, they give advice or just a listening ear to fellow students. Senior Tracy Erby, a peer ministry member, says, Every school needs a peer ministry because teens are more open to their peers than adults are.” Peer Ministry — 73 Brushing Up Imagination, patience, and creativity . . . these are the basic ingredients which are vital to artists. With these ingredients, an artist is able to grasp an abstract idea and from it, create a concrete object which conveys his feelings. Many artists at Andrean are doing exactly that. Working painstakingly in a fine arts course, artists are able to express themselves through such media as charcoal, watercolor, clay, and even stained glass. Through those media, one is able to know the artist, for as John Ruskin said, Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of a man go together.” UPPER: Mr. Listro advises Lisa Compton on her inking project.

These classes, taught by Mr. Billick, give students hands-on experience for future career opportunities in architecture, engineering, and building trades. Freshman Alex DaSilva says, With the education I’m getting here, I plan on going into an industrial occupation.” Many of Mr. Billick’s former students are now architects and engineers, working throughout the United States.

Industrial Art — 75 Direction During our four years at Andrean, we encounter many adults who will help us to shape our futures. Perhaps the most important of these persons are our guidance counselors, who help to mold our schedules at Andrean and to send us forward into rewarding careers. Mr. Nicolini, Sr. Alfred, and Mr. Edwards help us make many crucial decisions that are necessary on the road to a trade, career, college, or university. We have come to count on them not only for their guidance, but also for their friendship. They offer advice which comes from experience, and they help us to adapt to our rapidly changing high school years. Our counselors help us schedule our yearly classes, assist us in finding jobs, alert us to financial aid opportunities that some colleges may offer, and encourage us to develop our intellectual potential. Mr. Nicolini believes that counselors get to work with Andrean students on a one to one basis and are then better able to meet their specific needs.” Mr. Jeff Edwards 76 — Guidance Lively Library In memory of Robert L.

Home Economics — 79 Artistic Challenge The art club faced a new challenge when the student council asked them to develop and design a new school mascot. With the help of moderator Mr. Listro, they polled the student body and came up with the Crusader, complete with costume and sword. Other art club projects that served the whole school were the decoration of windows at Christmas and the task of painting a colorful backdrop for the music department concert. On other holidays, members painted little figures and designs on student faces — pumpkins for Halloween, hearts at Valentine’s Day, shamrocks for St. Patrick’s Day — and collected twenty-five cents for each. The money was well spent on club materials and an outing to the Art Institute of Chicago. UPPER: Mr. Listro, art club moderator, proudly presents the Andrean Crusader, the new mascot.

Given two days’ notice, members will type papers at the reasonable rate of seventy five cents per page. I have really benefited from this new typing service because I haven’t had a chance to learn to type,” said junior Teresa Gianoli. The new program has also helped other students who don’t have time to type their own papers. Best of all, however, the typing service helps members earn extra money for the club’s treasury.

Andrean, with a little over seven hundred upperclassmen, barely qualified for the larger high school division. The team, however, managed to prove itself more than capable with its outstanding third place finish out of nineteen schools. This win was a tremendous improvement over a ninth place finish the previous year. In this competition, a team consisted of up to nine members who work together on seven tests which included physics, mathematics, biology, computer science, engineering graphics, chemistry, and English. Each team had a separate classroom and two and a half hours to complete the tests. Although the Andrean team had an overall score of only 48.45%, it was an excellent one because of the difficulty of the individual tests. The key to the team’s victory was consistency. In only one category of the seven did Andrean place in the top three, but because they placed well in five of the remaining six categories, Andrean managed to capture its third place finish. fir k i ' , f V 2 4 hII A Team members: Teresa Gianoli Robert Sech Greg Volan Naree Wongse-Sanit Jon Hussey Kevin Schutz Melissa Bruce Jeff Kamradt Mr. Giorgio Jets - 97 Help from S.A.D.D. A chapter of S.A.D.D., Students Against Driving Drunk, has been formed at Andrean. As members of a national organization, president, Robin Gill; secretary, Tricia Thorn; vice president, Carrie Thorn; treasurer, Andrea Clay, and many other concerned students inform their fellow classmates ol the dangers of drinking and driving. With the assistance of St Marlene, the S.A.D.D. members have inspired students with postt buttons, and guest speakers. 98 — SADD Le Cercle Frangais Andrean’s French Club has always prided itself with providing opportunities for its members to learn about French culture outside of the classroom. Members enjoy sampling French cuisine, including crepes, pomme-frites, and croissants at French restaurants in Chicago such as L’Escargot and Magic Pan. The Christmas season proved to be especially festive as the club members decorated a live tree in the French room and held a party featuring French cookies and carols. Under the guidance of Miss Palaiologos, French students not only learn about the French language but also gain experiences in the French culture.

With joy and happiness, even in the midst of our sorrow, we celebrated the entrance of Father Norman Murphy into eternal life. Father Mur- phy died on March 17, 1985, in St. Anthony’s Hospital after a long illness. Father Murphy il- luminated and warmed many lives with the rays of his love and the warmth of his smile. Andrean has lost a true friend, a treasured colleague, and a great priest. The funeral services took place on March 21, 1985, in Father’s home town of Wind- sor, Ontario, Canada. Compassionate Council The Andrean student council plays a prominent part in our daily activities. From charity fund raisers to rec night, student council president, Jeff Attar, vice-president, Gail Francis, treasurer, Cam Stram, and secretary, Mia Costanza and the representatives work for the benefit of both students and faculty. In the fall they organized a jeans and sweatshirt day, with a twenty five cent donation from each student go- ing to Mr. Listro’s son Josh, who developed leukemia during the summer. Mr. Listro gave the $250 to the Leukemia Society of America saying, It’s more important for Josh and other kids to have money invested in research. That’s what’s going to count in the future.” The student council also planned two other jean days to raise money for the starving in Ethiopia. These are just two of the many student council activities which demonstrate its dedication to and support of the school and its entire family.

Student Council — 103 Spreading the Spirit During the Christmas season many Andrean students, through various activities, helped to spread the spirit of Christmas in their communities. Junior class president, Bob Boby, proposed that the Andrean Student Council purchase outdoor Christmas lights to decorate the courtyard’s evergreens in order to heighten the holiday spirit at Andrean. A group of students gathered after the junior retreat, lugged out the ladders, and hung the lights. Dressed as Santa Claus at the Washington Park Mall, senior Chris Hafner brought Christmas joy to many youngsters with his jolly appearance. Chris said, I truly felt the real spirit of Christmas because I had the chance to make little children happy. The smiles on their faces and the sparkle in their eyes made taking my time to play Santa worth every minute.” 104 — Christmas UPPER LEFT: As his junior classmates support the ladder.

Nevertheless, the team did well in sectionals, capturing several individual titles. Eric Turner, Mike Lesch, Doug Katich, and Brian Kellenberger placed first in their divisions. These four advanced to regional competition where Turner took second place. At semi-state Turner lost a close match to the eventual state champion.

Ending the season with an impressive 18-3 record, the Lady Niners provided continuous excitement for their loyal fans. The highlight of the season was a decisive 43-37 win over eventual state champions Crown Point to whom Andrean lost in the sectional finals. For their gallant efforts four Lady Niners were honored on the final night of sectionals. Aileen Blake and Carolyn Burke were named to the second All-Tourney team, and Lynn Hevezi and Acquanetta Washington were named to the first All-Tourney team.

Gaughan became the new bishop of the Gary Diocese in an Installation Mass at Holy Angels Cathedral. Andrean students and faculty extended a more personal welcome to Bishop Gaughan on October 9. Presiding over Bishop Gaughan ' s installation were Joseph Cardinal Ber- nardin, Archbishop of Chicago, and Archbishop Pio Laghi, Apostolic Pro-Nuncio to the United States. The Archbishop of Indianapolis, The Most Reverend Edward T. O’Meara, installed Bishop Gaughan. Bishops and other clergy members came from all over the country to witness the event. Some of the same celebrants had attended the installa- tion of Gary’s first Bishop, The Most Reverend Andrew G. Grutka. Andrean and Bishop Noll each sent twenty-five students to serve as ushers for the Mass. The choir, musicians, and servers included members of various diocesan institutions. The honor guard included the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus, Abraham Lincoln Assembly, and the Father Sorin Assembly. A grateful Bishop Gaughan thanked everyone for all they had done to welcome him to the diocese. On Tuesday, October 9, the new Bishop celebrated his first Mass at Andrean. During his homily on meaningful relationships Bishop Gaughan created a very relaxed atmosphere among the students and faculty. Andrean’s concert choir, directed by Mr. Carmody, and the Andrean band, under Mr. Jasek’s direction, performed at the Mass. Bishop Gaughan received several gifts from the school after the Mass. Sophomore class vice-president Dawn LoVerde gave him an Andrean jacket. Junior class president Bob Boby then presented Bishop Gaughan with an Andrean cap, and Cary Wood followed by giving him a chalice donated by the Andrean community. Jeff At- tar, student council president, finished the ceremony by asking Bishop Gaughan to wear an Andrean pin at the Homecoming game. -m we live we live fortKe “1 ar d when we die r for the ford is? ©Z-Bflw Caryn Marie Adamo Martin Aguirre Michael Anthony Aguirre Andrea Alexandrowic; Antoinette A.

Besides soccer and skiing, Daniel’s favorite pur- suit is traveling. He has been to France, Belgium, Britain, Spain, Italy, Greece, and Switzerland. Though his year in the United States counts as a school year on his record, he still must attend two more years of high school when he returns home.

The team gained the advantage of the twelfth man,” or fan support, as Andrean began playing home soccer games at Father Vincent Eckert Stadium. The team’s offense, powered by Daniel Grosch, German exchange student, and MVP, Tim Pliske, was backed up by a much improved defense which included MIP Mike Parish. An attitude of determination enabled the team to come from behind to beat Griffith, Highland, and Valparaiso. A 2-1 victory over area power Portage highlighted a great season.

The highlight of the regular season was a 165-167 win over Portage, one of the best teams in the area. In sectionals, Andrean received a respectable fifth place; the team missed qualifying for regionals by a mere four points, but showed its ability to stay in contention.

Students participated in events ranging from Trivial Pursuit® to dodgeball, an annual favorite. The spirit of Armageddon began long before the actual events. Classes competed for the Spirit Award during the week which preceded Armageddon. Each day had a different theme: Hawaiian Day, Class Colors Day, Clash-Military Day, Dress-Up Day, and Red and Gold Day, and students dressed accordingly. The games officially began at the assembly on May 17 when student council president, Jeff Attar, and senior class vice president, Carrie LaMere, ignited the flame. An explosive tug-of-war ended the two- day competition. Seniors captured first place in the games with a score of 66. Freshmen came in second with 58 points. Sophomores placed third with a score of 54, while juniors came in last with 49 points.
