The photo appeared in a Sep- tember issue of BMHS In- crescent. Besides being declared a national Quill and Scroll winner, the photo also took first place at the High School Editors Day conference at Madison in the fall. The ARISTA staff congratulates Bob and the Increscent. Students Find Photos Magnificent, Super Did you see it? Did you see the photo exhibit we had at our school? If you didn’t, maybe you can get a picture of it through the thoughts of these students. Pot Rich (’68) thought, “The photography was just mag- nificent!” Kevin Van Kompen (’67) said, “The exhibit was absolutely fantastic!” Margaret FitzGerald (’65) felt that, “The exhibit was good, because it was something different for our school.” Bill Heidt (’68) agreed with Margaret when he said, “I thought the pictures were excellent, the captions clever, and we were very fortunate to have the exhibit at BCHS.” Some students commented on particular pictures. Mary Koeh- ler (’66) and Ann Toffanetti (’66) were especially fascinated by the clarinet player. “We wish we had his style.” Marjorie Meyers (’67) expressed herself poetically by saying, “The bride from the Bronx stole the show; she possessed that heavenly glow.” Jone Aeschlimann (’67) commented that, “The picture of the monkey was especially good. It reminded me of some people I know!” Cindy Wieland, however, felt that, “Some pictures were too gruesome and depressing.” Most of the students agreed it was an excellent exhibit. Jane Trafford (’67) summed it all up by saying the exhibit was, “Supercalifragilisticexpialdocious!” Barbara Hudson Joe Dergeson, Tom Carney, and Dave Griffon admire one of the pictures at the Photo Exhibit. Resemble anyone you know, boys? ’Detachment’ Wins for Sophomores The sophomores took first place honors for their Vocation Day skit on April 2. “De- tachment” was narrated by Ann George. The main charac- ters were Kevin Van Kompen and Gloria Sierra, who por- trayed a young engaged couple. In previous years Vocation Day had been celebrated by listening to guests speak on the religious way of life. This year a student committee felt the meaning of a vocation would be understood better if the idea could be illustrated by skits. “An Inspiration for a Vocation,” adapted from “The Wizard of Oz,” and narrated by Sandy Schultz, captured second place for the juniors. Jackie Zahn, Karla Carroll, Tom Sauser, Bob Pospischil,. Joanne Milatzo, John Good, and Mary Carney played the main parts. A choral reading, “A Call for Clare,” by the freshmen class took third place. This skit was narrated by Cindy Koehler with Peter St. Peter and Cathy Lauer as the main characters. “The Road of Life,” pre- sented by the seniors and narrated by Mary Lou Finley, received fourth place. The parts were acted by Tim Lowrie, Pete Van Kompen, Pete Piazza, Marcia Evenson, Al Kobus, and Mike Hanish. Chairmen for the day were senior Pete Obligato, junior Jeon Behrman, sophomore Barb Hudson, and freshmen Borb Bilof and Jane Foreman. job of judging the skits were: Sr. Aletta, Fr. Nilles, Fr. Lenahan, Mr. Farina, and Mr. Mauel. Father Dennis Coyle, ot St. John Vianney parish in Janesville, Rock Deanery Vocation Director, presented a few closing ideas on vocations.

Pag. 2 Summertime What will you be doing five weeks from now and through- out your whole vocation? Will it be just another summer or will it be of some use to you? A summer job might be financially helpful and at the same time give you experience for your later life. Juniors planning on a college education could visit some colleges or at least start thinking about it. They could take a course at summer school in order to keep in shape and prepare for later studies. Entering clubs would give you a wonderful opportunity to meet new people and handle new personalities. Keep Physically Fit! Swimming, golfing, tennis, and all of your favorite sports should play an important role in your summer activities. And always remember, even if you are not able to take a trip, you can visit many different lands through leisure reading. Have a happy summertime! Nancy Belvedere Athletics - A Key to Manhood Some not associated with the world of sports have often wondered at the perseverance and persistence of an athlete? Those of us who are “in the know” of the time and effort put into an athlete’s high school career, realize the fruition of our athlete’s efforts in the victories which the perserv- ing athlete achieves. With these obvious fruits come the underlying victories which do not appear on the scoreboard, but do appear in th» athlete. They are the victories that the athlete has over himself and his weaknesses. He must first have the correct attitude toward the sport which he is about to participate. A true athlete enters the sport with the intention of doing his best in victory and in defeat. There is no place in competitive sports for winners or losers. Athletics is a contest of winners. These traits of maturity are the essentials needed for he forming of the men of the world, needed to meet today’s many demands in life. Next, the athlete must have the perseverence to “stick it out” through the whole season. Finally the athlete must finish the season in the peak of his efforts; his greatest effort should be in his last of athletics. The winners of these underlying victories in athletics will be truly the winners in the life of time and eternity. Kevin Van Kampen May, 1965 Open Letter to the Seniors Dear Seniors, You’re on your last leg of high school now. Soon you’ll be saying, “Remember when we dissected worms in biology and marched in English class? Remember our first place Viking Ship? Most of you are probably glad high school is over and some may never even think about it again. Then you will go off to college or get a full-time job. You will begin to think of high school as Kid’s stuff”, and you may joke about the “dumb little things you use to do, or worry about, or wish for. True, these high school hopes and dreams may be small compared to the important decisions you will face some day. Nevertheless always remember that high school is the im- portant foundation of your later life. You are a great class. Never forget BCHS and good luck in the future!
