Page 8 February, 1964 SC Writes DEAR STUDENTS: All of us have pride in the student attitude which is found in our school. The attitudes in classroom courtesy and in the various clubs, are good and are continuing to improve. The most notable advance has been in the cafeteria. There is still more to be done, but the students are to be commended for their efforts this year. Keep it up, PLEASE! Many people have commented on the tremendous good sports- manship shown by our athletic teams (most recently at the Durand Tournament). We are all proud of and grateful to the teams and spectators who uphold the standards of BCHS. Recently several student council members have heard severe criticisms about the lack of council action in school interest. For the next few weeks the council is acting for better student attitudes at school. You are asked to cooperate in helping the Student Council fulfill its purpose (to create a better school and student-body through first-rate student-faculty relationships). Continuing the emphasis on student-faculty relationships, we ask for your cooperation in the following: “Good morning, Sister. ' “Good morning. “Excuse me, you go first, Father. “There now, was that so hard on your early morning dis- position? Although we all know the simple manners which go along with courtesy, we sometimes forget them in the rush of traffic. Each small incident, (holding the door and stepping aside for a faculty member, excusing yourself after running into someone, faculty or student) which is forgotten adds up to a bad situation. Unless this matter is brought to our attention}it is forgotten. But, would you crash into Christ and then turn down the hall without ex- cusing yourself or helping Him pick up His things? Not only greetings to fellow-students and faculty but also orderly hall traffic are a part of good hall courtesy. This includes between classes and the traffic to and from assemblies and Mass. “But, Sister, 1 don’t know how to do it Would you please help me? Faculty members are ALWAYS ready to offer scholastic help. Their remark in this area is “If students would only use the opportunity! Please remember the reason for this letter. A whole is only as good as its parts. We often hear someone say, “I can’t do it alone. We are not asking you to try it alone; however, if individuals try to help each other and practice the small things each day, the whole will be greatly improved. The Student Council isn't able to do this alone, we NEED your co- operation! !!! In the past, requests by the STUDENT COUNCIL have been met by the student body, and we are confident that this one will not go unanswered. Shopping AD-Vantages Ad Going to Paris, London or Crete?

February, 1964 PETE SCHULER and GARY BROWN admire the runner-up trophy BCHS cagers won at the Durand tournament during the Christmas holidays. Varsity Runnerup In Holiday Tourney Page 7 Crusaders Split Weekend, Then Lose To Woodstock The boys from Beloit brought home the bacon as they captured second place in the Durand Holiday basketball tournament. On Monday Dec. 23, the Crusaders ran wild as they chalked up 99 points in a runaway game against Dakota. All ten of the Crusaders that suited up for the game con- tributed in the scoring. The final score was 99 to 48, with Mike Hahn, the leading scorer, dumping in 23 points. The victory guaranteed Beloit’s participation in the semi- finals in the tourney Friday night, Dec. 27. The ’Saders next faced Stockton, and won by a margin of 79-60. The Crusaders put their full court press to good use as they steadily increased their lead. Mike Hahn was again top point producer, scoring 21 points. This earned the Beloit boys a berth in the finals on Saturday against pre-toumey favorite Hononegah. The Crusaders found it rough going in dropping a 52 to 44 decision to the taller Indians. Don Smiley earned 14 points for Beloit. Although losing the last game the ’Saders claimed much respect during the tournament. One comment reported was that if an award for sportsmanship had been given, the Crusaders would have won hands down. CK Beloit Catholic played host to Boylan on Friday, January 10 and traveled to Freeport the next night Utilizing their zone press on the home floor, the ’Saders ran Boylan down early and ran up a first quarter lead of 10 points. Half time showed it 36-25 ’Saders. The third and fourth quarters revealed the ’Saders pulling steadily away until the buzzer ended things at 71-48. Mike Hahn was the high scorer with 29 points. Don Smiley, Tom Faralli, Larry Scott, and Mike Mowers had 12, 9, 8, and 7 respectively. The next night Beloit Catholic traveled to Freeport to take on Aquin, but some of the previous night’s spark was gone. The Bulldogs took a 16-12 lead at the first quarter. Things looked a little better at half-time when this lead was cut to one, 34-33. A slow third period on the ’Saders part, however, put Aquin in front to stay, 50-41. Scoring in the final period broke even with both teams posting 19 tallies and the game ended 69-60. This defeat was Beloit Catholic’s fifth in 12 starts. High point man in the Aquin game was Isaacs (Aquin) with 28. Larry Scott was one point behind for his season high of 27. The only other ’Sader in double figures was Hahn with 19. On the following Thursday, Jan. 16, the ’Saders moved to Woodstock with hopes of avenging the loss suffered in the last 30 seconds of Marian’s homecoming game. However, Beloit Catholic couldn’t find the light and trailed 16-11 after the first 8 minutes. The second quarter showed Marian using stall tactics. Only two points were scored in this period and they be- longed to the Purple Hur- ricanes. The second half moved faster but the ’Saders »till couldn't grab the needed scoring edge and had to settle for a 59-49 loss. Game honors went to Mar- ian’s Dan Nitz with 22, and Tim Murphy with 14. Larry Scott and John Pohl took honors for the ’Saders with 12 each, while Mike Hahn hit for 10. Sports Slants When Gary Brown ran into the south wall of the gym in the Boylan game, Coach jumped to his feet and watched closely. Gary got up, looking... he was worried about the wall. Thanks to all who made the Lettermen’s dance a big success....especially the team for the victory. Congratulations to the Crusaders’ basketball team for setting a new one game high point total, by scoring 99 points against Dakota in the Durand tournament. One Win,Two Losses For JY In January Crusader JV resumed play after the holidays by hosting Boylan of Rockford. Showing good ball control the BCHmen gained a 42-35 triumph over the Titans. Dave Luebke paced the JV’s with 13 points, while John Tauschek added 11 and Pete Piazza 9. In their next encounter the the JV’s were outpointed 46-30 by Aquin. The cagers had a cold first half, scoring only 11 points to Aquin’s 23 and could never recover. John Winger led the Crusaders with 12 points while Aquins’ Joyce and McCool had 15 each. BA CRUSADERS!
