PETER SCHULER shows Fa- ther Pierick the plaque he received as part of the Monsignor O'Reilly Award. Peter was cho- sen by his classmates to receive this honor based on scholarship, practical Catholicism, school spirit and per- sonal appearance. Correcting Papers Not All Monotony Correcting papers is not always pure drudgery for teachers. Sometimes the answers they receive are quite humorous. For example. Sister Agnes Clare received the following definitions from a freshman: Organist - one who plays the organ. Tigress - one who plays the tigre. Sister Ronalda recently discovered that the Beatles belong to the order Coleoptera. Two juniors gave Father Lenahan the following des- criptions of their homes: “My home is my castle. It has seen many things come and go; mostly us kids.’ “Our lawn is neat; our kitchen is neat; our living room is neat; our ‘reck’ room is neat; but my room - you guessed it - is a mess!” When Mrs. Watson asked where the diaphragm is lo- cated, some bright singer answered, “Somewhere around the throat.’

Mr. Melvin is again head coach and will work with a nucleus of last year's returning letter- men. Track Team Hopes For Winning Season The relatively new BCHS track team has new hopes this year with a fine turn out of 44 boys, 12 of whom are lettennen. Entering the SHARK con- ference, Mr. Bamabo would like to leave a lasting impres- sion. His hopes are based on consistent point winners Pat Aldrich, hurdles, Bill Knipp, 440, Pete Von Kampen, 880, Jim Davi», mile, and Gary Brown in field events. Bill Knipp will receive help from returning letterman Al Muetx and new comers Bill Dooley and Vic Morkle. Pete Van Kampen, Ron Goessel and Bernie Zickert, are the backbone of the 880, while Jim Davis and Kevin Lauer round out the miles. Experienced at field events are Gory Brown, John Gregory, Joe Bergeson, Mike Mowers, and Mike Peterson. For Tourney Berth Mike Hahn will be the pitching fort and will be backed up by Jim Boho, John Winger, and Jon Toubl. Either Art Kapitonoff or Pete Schuler will hold things down behind the plate while the other is in the outfield. The rest of the infield will be handled by Lorry Scott, Jock Anastasi, Don Smiley, and John Winger. Outfielders are Tom Faralli, Pete Piazza, Dave Luebke, Rick Asplund, and Earl Penewell. New Cheerleader Squad Chosen Tension ran high in the gym on Saint Patrick's Day, for this was the day of the final selection of the 1964- 1965 cheerleader squad. Of the twenty-one girls who tried out, six were chosen for the Var- sity squad and four for the Junior Varsity. New cheerleaders chosen by faculty and student repre- sentatives include juniors Barbara Carter and Pat Chou- doir; sophomores Jean Hamill, Gina Ago6tinelli, Cathy Brandt, and Joanne Milatzo. Varsity subs are Jacki Zahn and Cathy Eichman. The annual Athletic Ban- quet will be held at 6:30 Wednesday, May 6th in the school gym. Guest speaker will be Mr. George Ireland, head basketball coach at Chicago's Loyola university. Since 1957, Mr. Ireland has been associated with the Loyola Ramblers. In 1963 BCH linksmen swing into spring season FORECAST for golf! BCHS golf squad, again under the direction of able Jerry Thomas (who lost by one stroke in a match with Amie Palmer last year), is looking forward to a season of long drives and short putts. Last year's starting five, senior Rick Boch, juniors Jerry Conway, Tom Carney, Nick Poley and sophomore Jim Hudson are being chal- lenged for berths this year by returning Jim West and a dozen other promising hope- fuls. At the end of thirteen scheduled matches, last year's .500 record should be greatly improved, and the boys are looking forward to bettering their 11th place standing of last year in the state meet. Cheer-up! Things could be worse. And so you did and sure enough things did get worse. Junior varsity cheerleaders are freshmen Pat FitzGerald, Pat Wolf, Nancy Belvedere and Linda Tyler. Subing for them will be Suzanne Conroy, Sue Ryan, Cathy Schuler, and Karen Zimbrick. he led them to the N.C.A.A. championship. He is a Wis- consin man. When he attended Campion Academy in Prairie Du Chien, the team he played on won three state champion- ships. At Notre Dame he was named All-American player. Following his graduation, he coached basketball at Campion Academy until joining Loyola University staff. Awards will be made at the banquet to outstanding play- ers. These include a Sports- manship Award, presented by Krugpr Sports Shop; Athletic and Academic Achievement Awards, presented by Hirth's Leather Goods; and an Athletic Achievement Award, presented by Beloit Catholic High Ath- letic Association. Freshmen players will receive numerals while upper classmen will be awarded letters. Cheerleaders will receive either numerals, let- ters, or pins depending on their length of service. Tennis To Begin With Boylan Match With the largest turnout of players he has had since coaching tennis, Mr. Mauel took on Boylan, April 10, for the first match of the season. The team carries only two of last year's lettermen, senior Joe Bua and junior Bill Hoc- kett. Otherwise it consists mainly of freshmen and sopho- mores. The squad depends on Hockett and Bua, and ex- perienced freshmen Frank Polizzi and Tom Wright for a strong nucleus. Around these four, the less experienced will be built. Although hoping for the best, Mr. Mauel expects this season to be more important as a ground to gain experience for his young team.
