A DAY OF DEDICATION Top : Miss Hilda Horn is obviously very touched to have the 1987 Greenleares dedicated to her. Bottom : Miss Hilda Horn stands proudly with a yearbook and a plant, both gifts from the yearbook staff. September 16, 1987 It was the day the whole school had been waiting for. The 1987 yearbook had finally arrived! It had been a hard but fun experience for the yearbook staff to put together a book that people ten years from now would look at to remem- ber their good of high school days. It told the story of what had happened throughout the year. There were the class portraits, the activities of the year, the sports, and the clubs, but also very impor- tant was the dedication of the book. That honor went to Miss Hilda Horn. She has for a long time contributed much of her own time to help with one school function or anoth- er. If she was not working on the newspaper until 11:00 p.m.??, she was helping with the cheerleaders. If a student had a problem, he could al- ways depend on Miss Horn to be there with an open ear and helpful advice. For these rea- sons, it came as no surprise to anyone in the John Carroll community that Miss Hilda Horn was the person for such an honor. 22

THE THRILL OF VICTORY Top : The 1-95 banner conveys the feelings of the student body and the rest of the John Carroll community. Middle : The Senior Cavaliers ad- mire their long-awaited and de- served “Team of the Week” trophy. Bottom left: Representatives of 1-95 commence the pep rally. Bottom right: Radio personality Cat- fish Hunter displays the beautiful “Team of the Week trophy. We had finally done it! John Carroll won its first football game after losing thirty-six games straight. We had won and then we were rewarded. We were “Team of the Week” for 1-95, Kicks 106, and WBRC Channel 6. At the pep rally, we received three different trophies and were visited by Kicks 106’s Catfish Hunter and 1-95’s Danny Wright and Jimbo Wood, among others. Every- one was very excited and rowdy, but we calmed down enough to listen to the speak- ers and, of course, to receive our trophies. Both radio sta- tions brought t-shirts and various other things to give to us students. Some got so thrilled with the idea of free t-shirts that they stampeded the floor in order to get one, and it took some time to get these t-shirt-hungry kids back in control. The pep rally en- ded with a cheer and with a hope that we would win the next game. Yes, the football team made the whole school proud when we were made “Team of the Week” on September 25, 1987 . It was a day that will live on forever! 23
