Page 8 Good Easter Buys Noted March, 1964 SISTER M. CLETUS, mechanical drawing instructor, is shown giving pointers to winners in an area mechanical drawing con- test. First place went to Ed Goessel (seated), second place to Ray Cipra (r) and third place to Dennis McKeam (1). The con- test, sponsored by the American Society of Tool and Manufac- turing Engineers, is based on regularly assisted class work and is open to all schools in the Rockford area. Competition is with- in each school rather than among all schools entering. BCHS Bookstore Thriving; Keeps Sister Cletus Busy by Roberta Laughlin Leading our Easter Parade is Kathy, dressed “just right” in her beautiful Easter dress from UGENT'S. UGENT'S also carries a complete line of coats, suits and ensembles to please any taste. Escorting her is Bob, so handsome in his Easter suit from the NATIONAL. NA- TIONAL'S new lightweight suits come in a variety of styles and colors to flatter any young man. Here comes Cindy, gaily stepping along in her shiny new CHARNON SHOES. She could hardly choose from CHARNON’S fabulous selec- tion of spring styles and colors. There's Chuck, still swing- ing along as he hums his favorite Beatle song. He's just thrilled with his Beatle album from the MUSIC RECORD SHOP. What a perfect finishing touch to Judy's Easter suit — a corsage from EMMANUEL'S! And how pleased her mother was too with a beautiful Easter lily, such a thoughtful gift. There's Terry — isn't she stunning in her new hairdo? HAZEL'S HAIR STYLING always does such wonders with your hair. “In your Easter bonnet....” And doesn't Debby look beautiful in hers? Where did she get it? DOLLY HATS of course! You'll find your favorite “Easter bonnet” there too! And here's Carla, as fresh as spring itself, thanks to her pretty pastel Christian Dior lipstick and nail polish from DREKMEIER’S. She floats along on a cloud of enchanting Chanel Cologne, also from DREKMEIER'S. “I'll see you in homeroom, I have to go to the bookstore.” How often have you heard this comment? Uave y°u ever stopped to think what that one word “bookstore” means? Besides spending spring months preparing orders for new textbooks and summers preparing these books for use. Sister M. Cletus, manages to run a thriving business. Stu- dents realize that the store is there for their convenience and they use the opportunity well. The most popular item is pens, with an estimated 3,000 sold per year. This does not include refills. Sister Cletus says she also receives many requests for things not in stock, such as safety pins, needles, thread, or aspirins. The bookstore was opened in the fall of 1956 by Sister M. Amadea. Previously a few articles had been sold by Sister Mary Alphonsus to St. Thomas pupils. At the current rate of business Sister Cletus needs “about three times the space I have now.” The room which houses the stock was a storeroom until its conversion to this use. Sister Cletus finds the work “slow” at times but she says rush hours make up for these. At various times between 7:30 a.m., when buses start arriving, until about 4:30 p.m., she may be found in the book- store providing for student needs. She also teaches three classes of mechanical drawing in which all students are boys. The biggest disadvantage of her work. Sister finds, is that she does not really get acquainted with most of the students but knows them by faces rather than names. Sister sells ordinary school supplies, plus a large selec- tion of religious articles and greeting cards. Formerly, the bookstore also stocked paper- backs but the library handles these now. Many people other than students who know of the bookstore stop in after school to purchase articles for gifts. Sister orders the stock from some sixty companies.

March, 1964 Spring Sports Outlined Ah. Spring! The time of year when a young man's fancy turns to....baseball. track, tennis, and golf. At least at BCHS they will take up most of the tune. With such a wide variety of sports to choose from, about 75 boys will be participating. Track will draw the most students - about 30. Since its initial season in 1962, it has developed rapidly into a favorite participation sport at BCHS. Coach Bamabo looks for strong support from dis- tance runners like Pet» Van Kampen and Ron Goess»l. Returning also are seniors Pat Aldrich and Art Lu»bk«. Baseball will have a fine turnout of hopefuls, because of its unblemished 10-0 record last year. Mr. Roy Melvin, back for his second term as coach, is ready to pick up where he left off. Although he lost some of the power hitting of last year, Coach Melvin has a good nucleus of ball players, and says he will rely on more speed this year. Tennis, which is relatively new at BCHS was dealt a hard blow by graduation. Coach Mauel will form this year's team around Jo» Boa and Bill Hack»tt two of last year's players. More information will be available only after an organizational meeting to be held soon. The golf team, coached by Mr. Jerry Thomas, will be a strong match for most teams. Captain Rick Bach will be joined by Tom Carn»y, J»rry Conway, Nick Pal»y and a supporting team that will be hard to beat. Sports Slants by Mike Hahn A big hand of thanks is due to Jack Anastasi, Steve Ullrich, Father Nilles and the others responsible for a suc- cessful intramural season. The Intramural All-Stars challenged the Varsity to a basketball game played Feb. 26. The score - Varsity 113, Intramural All-Stars 30. The boys who will par- ticipate in Spring sports put in innumerable hours of practice. Please support them well. Pancakes will be the main topic in BCH's cafeteria Sunday, April 5 .

Double Loss Sets JY Record At 8-9 As with most close games free throws made the difference in the JV's 40-38 loss to Clinton Feb. 10. From the charity line Clinton cashed in on 14 of 19 while the Saders hit a cold 10 for 20. P»t» Piazza led all the scores with 15 while Dav» Lu»bk» hooped 9. Outscored in every period BCHS was crushed 52-25 by Boylan in the final game of the season Feb. 14. Cold shooting, turnovers, and poor by Dick Goldsworthy ball handling by BCHS cageis aided the Boylan victory. John Tauschek led the Sadei attack. Father Lenahan, JV coach, believes the Saders could have improved upon their 8-9 record. He went on to say although the JV's lacked poise and team play, he was sure they had gained valuable game experience. Page 7 Varsity Ends Season With 12-8 Record Beloit Catholic ended its regular cage season by split- ting the last four games - de- feating Clinton and Marian Central, and losing to Edge- wood and Boylan. The Saders went into the Feb. 7 Edgewood game fired up and gave the Capitol Cru- saders one of their hardest fought battles. Trailing 20-15 at the first quarter, BCHS jumped on Edgewood and outscored them 16-7 in the second. This made it 31-27 at the half. The two teams split the third quarter 12-12. In the final period, Edge- wood took the advantage and got the lead. But BCHS came back and tied. Edgewood cashed in at the foul line and picked up a 4 point lead with less than 3 minutes to go. Again Beloit cut the lead to two. With time almost gone, BCHS gained control of the ball and gpt off 3 shots - the first with 7 seconds left, and the last, the connecting ooe, half a second too late. The game ended 54-52, Edgewood. High for game was Mik» Mowers with 20, followed by Larry Scott with 18. by Peter Piazza The following night the Saders played host to Marian Central and walked away with a 66-60 victory. Mike Hahn grabbed scoring honors with 21. For their third close game in four days the Saders de- fended home ground against Clinton. The final buzzer showed Beloit at a 77-72 advantage despite Tom Kohl's 32 points for the Cougars. Team scoring honors went again to Mik» Hahn’s 19 tallies. Larry Scott, Mik» Mow»rs, Don Smil»y and Tom Faralli all hit in double figures with 17, 16, 15 and 10 respectively. During the three day rest 'till the final game, Feb. 14, some of the spark wore down allowing Boylan to take ad- vantage of mistakes and win 51-45 despite a 9 point half time lead held by BCHS. This defeat left Beloit Catholic with a 10-7 record for the regular season and overall record of 12-8.
