Paul Curran Reverend Msgr. David E. Walls Vicar for the Office of Catholic Education. Superintendent of Schools 4 Reverend Gerald Canavan. Since his arrival at Kennedy in 1984, Father Canavan has been the spiritual and academic leader of our school. Father feels that Spiritually, academically, building-wise, sports-wise, and enrollment-wise, Kennedy is headed in the right direction.'' McMenamin: What components go into the makeup of a good high school? Father Canavan: The first thing in good education, I think, is to help people not only get jobs and be academically solid that way, but what is really im- portant is that all the issues should be addressed as to what kind of person, what kind of life you are going to have, who you really are, and what do you believe in, and how you are going to live. McMenamin: Are the Catholic high schools of the 80 s very different from those of the 60 s? Father Canavan: The Catholic high schools of the 80 s are different from those of the 60 s. The students of the 80 s are more job oriented. The students of the 60 s were more social-issue orien- ted. The students of the 80s seem to have a more stable type of adolescence. With the students of the 80 s, I would say it is harder to tap idealism within them, harder to have them interested in anything on a bigger viewpoint than what personally affects them. Bill McMenamin 5 Part of the principal's job is to communicate to the students, rather Canavan Knows just how to do it. The Real Tugger Many feel that nothing out-of-the- ordinary happens at Kennedy, not so. On October 14. Phillies' 1980 World Series Pitcher Tug McGraw delivered a guest Student Council Installation Speech in our own Tracy Hall. His speech contained many fascinating stories that placed students in the dugout and on the field during the World Series, but he also revealed another side of himself as he spoke his proverb, enjoy the effort.” He further unveiled a more serious personality in an interview with Maria lannozzi following his In- stallation speech: M.I.s How that you're retired from baseball, do you miss playing? Tug McGraw: I don't really miss the actual playing of the game of baseball . . . The thing I miss the most is the pump, the adrenalin. It's an exaggerated form of a natural high, it's unusual compared to other things you do in your life. M.I.: Were the Philies a close-knit team? Were there any problems? T.M.: We went through highs and lows and in terms of dissension and everybody getting along or not get- ting along, out team was pretty nor- mal. We had a wonderful ability, though, to give everybody their own space and sometimes, when we were going through a losing streak, it wasn't as easy to give everyone that space. Winning cures a lot of ills . . . There was a lot of character in our team, a lot of substance . . . They cared about what we did as a team. M.I.: Who were your role models? T.M.: Seaver and Carlton were probably the two finest pitchers I've ever seen. M.I.: How serious of a drug problem do you think there is in baseball? T.M.: Regardles of the numbers, it's a serious problem, even if it's just one major league player or more than that — it's serious. I think that before it was more serious than people thought it was and now that the trials are over, it's not as serious as people think it is. We were at an extreme disregard before and now I think that we re over-concerned. M.I.: Do you think the mandatory drug testing is fair? T.M: I don't think it's an invasion of privacy at all. If you're working in a group or team environment and there is some question about whether or not you are living up to your responsibilities, I think it's en- cumbent upon everyone including your teammates to want to know why. M.I.: What sort of a kid were you in high school? T.M.: I was kind of a goof off . . really high strung. I had a hard time concentrating in class although whenever I did I usually came out with a good result ... As a student I wouldn't call myself a role model. Although, I was really active in every type of club, activity or committee you could be in. M.I.: Looking back on your high school years, would you change anything? T.M.: If I had to do it all over again, I d try to figure out a way to spend more time pumping information in- to myself so I would have been more organized and aware of myself when I got older. What I said today in my talk was very sincere about the toughest part of being a parent is trying to teach while I'm still learn- ing. I think if I would have con- centrated more on myself as a kid in school I would have been a better parent today. M.I.: How are you enjoying your work at WPVI? T.M.: Very much, I think that the types of stories that they're giving me, to go out and interview people who are full of spirit and motivation and who care about other people, are really great... I really enjoy the theme of my reporting. M.I.: Do you have any advice for the students of today? T.M.: Try to turn tough times into good times and try to create a happy environment around you ... try to be active and care. Heedless to say, Kennedy certainly enjoyed Tug s adages and his in- telligent advice. In keeping with his proverb, he certainly deserves an A for effort. Mew York, New York On January 27, 1985 three Ken- nedy students experienced Mew York in way that many will never see it — from the inside out. Patty Dem- psey, Prank Steitz, and Greg Stan- wood of the World Affairs Council all had the opportunity to visit three of Mew York's most famous land- marks: The United nations Building, The new York Times, and the hew York Stock Exchange. In the United nations Building, the students were given a guided tour after having a few moments of ex- ploring on their own. Patty Dempsey explains. They illustrated different things for us in each of the exhibits such as the Assembly Rooms, the Trustees Council and other organizations. They also had the unique chance to see the The new York Times in operation. Unlike many Hollywood versions of the newsroom, Dempsey stated. It was so quiet. They (the reporters) were really intent on their work. There were some editors talking, but not very loudly, and the reporters use computers to type their stories so it's virtually silent.' They were then escorted to the layout room where we got to see the paper being laid out. The people there were very friendly. Dempsey, Steitz. and Stanwood also visited the New York Stock Ex- change, famous for ticker tapes and the Dow Jones average, where the daily routines of commerce were ex- plained to them. Patty summed up the day: I really learned a lot. I finally got to see what New York was like. You never really understand what it's like until you see it. We Keep On Growing Kenndy is growing. This year perhaps the best the school has ever been. With each passing day, new opportunities for students to become involved in school activities are blooming. New soon-to-be traditions are forming and positive attitudes are entering Kennedy as each new class enters our doors. Perhaps the students' changing attitudes are what brought about the addition of the Karate and Camera clubs, the Soccer Team, a forensics club, and the Zoo Crew to Kennedy's list of activities. Yet, they are not simply statistics or another club on your transcript, they are alive with the ushering of the latest in Kennedy school spirit. Archbishop Kennedy has, in the past, had a reputation of being a sports-oriented institution. Al- though our school will always rely on their sports teams the trends now, however, lean toward a more academic and non-sport activity en- vironment. The Karate Club instructed by Mr. Fred DeStolfo teaches students self- defense and self-respect; the Camera Club, initiated by Sister Rose Concetta, our librarian, opens doors to students interested in photography. The Soccer Team, paired with its new-born field at- tracts many freshmen; the Forensics Club, headed by Mr. Joseph Murray and Miss Anne Murray, assist in public speaking and debating. Last but certainly not least is Kennedy's version of a Pep Club, the Zoo Crew , an energetic group of un- derclassmen who are not the least bit timid on expressing their Saints pride. Father Canavan also intends to ex- pand in the future with a bowling team golfing team, and a school show, but student interest deter- mines the birth of these new organizations. Two by Two Are Are twins twins rare rare?? At Kennedy they're not. There are six sets of twins scattered throughout the four grades, an interesting statistic considering our small school. Some are not of the same gender, and others such as Kris and Joe Raucher. are not even in the same grade. Many people often wonder what it's like to be a twin. Is it any dif- ferent than having a normal brother or sister? Are they closer? Do they fight more often? All of these questions really can not be generalized since every twin is dif- ferent. The picture they paint is not so alien. What is it like? Many students replied with the usual. It's neat. Tom Wittig even stated. It's weird, but the general consensus of Ken- nedy twins seemed to enjoy their double. They do resent, however, when family and friends expect them to be carbon-copies of the other. Megan Murphy explains, Everybody looks at you like you're twins and you can't have your own individual life. It's not good when there's the com- parison he's like this and you're not , says Kris Wittig. Kim Flanagan has a definite reason to dislike com- parisons: We re always being com- pared in our grades especially since we re in the same classes. Sean's in- to sports and I'm only in a few. We re really opposites so you can't really compare us. And they are all different. People don't really think of us as twins because we re so opposite. Monica Murphy has a point. She and Megan are definite opposites and they both will admit it, but Monica sadly reports that many people still confuse their names even though we don't look alike. Seniors Nick and Paul lademarco both feel that We are respected as individuals even though we have the same ideas. Nonetheless students still jumble who's w ho. It's often difficult to remain a separate person when you're a twin. Both family and friends sometimes consider the two as one under the similar title of the twins. Megan Murphy demonstrates the situation with this story. My older sister moved out and Monica and I had been sharing the same room. We both asked if each of us could have the room, but they gave it to our younger sister because they didn't want to separate us. They fight, share ideas, and care like other normal brothers and sisters. So does being born on the same day necessarily make them distinct? We're not closer because we re twins. We're just like any other brother and sister, says Kim Flanagan, being twins doesn't make it any different. Who Is Where In the beginning of the school year, students received their rosters. Everything was normal. They looked over their classes and teachers without too many grimaces. Some had Ms. Ciociola, our English Department Head, for English, nothing out of the ordinary. Only, on arriving in class, students, after carefully scrutinizing the situation, realized that it was not Ms. Ciociola standing in the front of the room smiling. Instead, it was Miss Susan Qies, who was replacing Ms. Ciociola for the semester. Rumours flew. She was getting married, or She was going under cover for the literary CIA in Russia to examine the latest Soviet short- stories, amongst others, only no one seemed to know the real reason for Ms. Ciociola’s absence, which was simply a sabbatical. Miss Qies, a former student of Ms. Ciociola's, attended Cardinal Dougherty High School and has her origins in Northeast Philadelphia. She graduated from Villanova University with a BA in English and a BS in Education. In addition to Ken- nedy, Qies has taught at her alma mater, Dougherty, moved on to Lit- tle Flower, and then ended up at Ar- chbishop Carroll, where she moderated the school newspaper. Miss Qies is not new to a one- semester job and has been in this situation before. It's a mental strain. This is my last year of switching in the middle. Yet, she did not have a totally negative attitude toward her position at Kennedy. I like it. I have a lot of fond memories. The students were very friendly and so was the faculty. Mr. Leahan is my hero, Mr. Kauffman is my mentor, and Mr. Dabagian is the Rollie Massimino of Archbishop Kennedy. Her classes included Honors English, English II and III, and Creative Writing Class. When com- menting on the English Program she said, It is really a complete program considering Kennedy is a small school. As far as curriculum, you can't offer as much with a smaller institution. With the notion that The Arch- diocese sent me here on a mission from God, Miss Qies said good-bye to her temporary commission in January so that Ms. Ciociola could assume her position as English Chairperson. Ms. Qail Ciociola returned to Ken- nedy with a more serious attitude than that of Miss Qies when she departed. I feel as though I came back with a very different frame of mind about education. I realized that education should not be something that creates walls, but rather that it should be a process in which we bring down the walls and liberate ourselves. I hope to find some way of doing that in the classroom, says Ciociola. She utilized her sabbatical to work on her MA in English and to take her comprehensive exams. Ms. Ciociola summed up her leave in two words, study and travel. She also felt that Miss Qies did a good job and that she could pick up where she (Miss Qies) left off. Making More Space Expansion. Some consider it to be the key to success. If this is true, Kennedy is on such a path. Some do not consider the addition of a modular classroom an event of any real significance. Yet, the classroom represents the increase of Kennedy enrollment which, in turn, shows a general increase in the community's view of our school. Perhaps it is Kennedy's newly of- fered programs such as Soccer, or even simply its reputation for ex- cellence that has sparked this sud- den interest in our school. Nonetheless, the population has soared and in order to keep class sizes at their current level, the room was added. What a dramatic change when one considers that only a few years ago Kennedy was threatened with closing down because enrollment was suffering. The room has its drawbacks; it is sometimes cold, in the beginning of the year it was not connected to the morning announcements nor did it have a bell to signal class changes. These problems however, were soon rectified. With the addition of this classroom, Fr. Canavan feels that Kennedy is headed in the right direction. Will there be more modular classrooms added in the future? It really depends on which direction Kennedy's enrollment takes. An Award For Excellence The Mirror's reflection is one of hard work and responsibility. These adjectives certainly explain the ef- fort put into each issue of our bi- semesterly publication. The Mirror. This year, in fact, this dedication won the paper a second-place ranking in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association's annual critique of school papers nationwide. It seems surprising that a paper, after a 3 year hiatus, could emerge a successful and well-organized publication. The impetus of Patty Dempsey in her freshman year helped revive the paper as she sought out funds from Fr. Canavan and a moderator. Dr. Joseph D Angelo, from the faculty. Many were hesitant in predicting the suc- cess of the paper, but it eventually succeeded. The Mirror was even highlighted in The Philadelphia Inquirer's PEOPLE'' section on January 17, 1985. by Theresa Conroy who reported the resurrec- tion of the paper. Ms. Conroy's headline The Mirror Reflects Arch- bishop Kennedy , failed to mention what the paper truly reflects the dedication of The Mirror's staff which resulted in its recognition a year later. At that time, in 1985, no one prognosticated or even suspected that The Mirror would receive such a prestigious award that was certainly deserved. Our Miss Teen When one thinks of a pageant, many glamorous things come to mind: gowns, interviews, audiences, bathing suit competitions, and the like. Yet, not every pageant is based upon poise and beauty. Some, such as the Modern Miss Teen Scholar- ship Pageant in which Senior Vicki Daywalt participated, concern areas such as citizenship, volunteer work, talent, and scholastic achievement. This volunteer organization holds these pageants annually to recognize the outstanding teens of today. Vicki was informed of the show through the mail when a teacher suggested her for candidacy. There were many categories for awards, in- cluding talent, citizenship, academics. Miss Congeniality, ad- vertising recognition, among others. Vicki competed in the talent contest to the song Let's Dance by Donna Summer, and described her preparation as difficult. I had to get back in shape, that was the hard part. I went back to my old dance teacher and asked him to help choreograph a routine. I made most of it up myself, but he really helped me a lot. To futher prove that the pageant intended to segregate itself from beauty pageants, they established a prerequisite con- sisting of volunteer work. I had to put in a lot of time and that aided me in my future goals because from my volunteer experience, I worked with young children, 1 found myself wanting to go into early childhood education in college. Vicki won the Junior Executive Award or the Advertising Recognition Award for going out into the community and working hard to get ads and meeting people because they consider meeting business men and women highly im- portant in preparation for adulthood. She also participated in the opening dance routine and in an in- terview where she had to explain what makes the contestant s par- ticular city or town famous. I said the Kennedy Saints. Obviously, Vicki Daywalt has gained much from this unique ex- perience, including many friends with whom she still corresponds by mail. Undoubtedly in the future she will reap the benefits from this pageant which was based on the per- son, not the appearance. Poetry In Motion The Ice Capades, The Ice Follies, The Olympics, and your local frozen pond, these all share a similarity — ice skating. Kennedy is lucky to have two students who are very interested in professional skating, junior Kathy Nolan and freshman Melissa Allen. Although they share a common love for skating, their introduction to the sport differs. Melissa describes her first experience with her father: I was on a pond where my dad used to take me. I loved it. I just started taking lessons. Kathy, on the other hand, had her first experience in- doors, When I was younger, my brother played hockey and there was a public session at the rink where he was playing once, and that's how I got started. Both girls compete often and both have won numerous trophies and awards for their performances. The Olympics are another topic on Kathy and Melissa's minds. I don't think I'm ready for '88, but '92 sounds good. Melissa's aspirations may be very realistic. Kathy feels that the Olympics are a really high goal and hopes that someday she, too, can participate. Another similarity in these skaters is that they both eventually expect to teach the art of skating. Kathy wants to try her turn at the Ice Capades or Follies first, though. Special school schedules are required to accommodate their rigorous work-out schedules. Kathy leaves school after sixth period and skates anywhere from four to seven hours afterwards. Melissa is finished at one o'clock, goes to the rink until three, goes home, and later returns to the rink for more practice. It seems that this scheduling would often conflict with their social lives, but these two girls seem to manage quite well. Kathy explains, Once in a while it interferes a little bit with my friends, but I've gotten used to it and I've learned to keep skating and my social life separate so they won't interfere with each other. With this story as proof, Kathy Nolan and Melissa Allen will surely succeed — just as easily as it is to slip on ice. Service With A Smile They are no longer called candy stripers but Junior Vounteers. Yet, their work has not changed, that is their much needed assis- tance to hospital administrations. Junior Ruth Lane is one such volunteer who, in the summer, worked at Montgomery hospital, Norristown. As with all occupations, Ruth had to climb the proverbial lad- der of responsibility. She began with a job considered as the escort ser- vice in which she was notified by computer to come to certain areas of the hospital to transport patients. In her second job she was assigned a floor, 4 south, and assisted nurses and nurses aides. Ruth's activities consisted of helping to get all patients out of bed, making beds, and feeding patients. She also assisted orderlies in transporting patients and their apparatus. Ruth spoke about her volunteer work It made me realize what I'm going to do with my future, that I want to be a nurse. It also made me realize that people should pay more attention to the sick. They need a smile. Although her job was rewarding. Ruth also ran into a few difficult situations. This certain lady had a stroke and she would always resist everything we tried to do for her. I sometimes held her arms down while the nurse fed her or tried to give her medicine. Still, Ruth's smile must have been well-received because she intends to return to this volunteer service this summer at Sacred heart Hospital.

Philadelphia, Pa. — May 13, 1985 — Late that Sunday night and early Monday morning, Philadelphia Police evacuated residents and prepared for the forthcoming con- frontation with MOVE — a Philadelphia-centered cult that preaches a strange blend of primitivism and anarchy. At 6 p.m., MOVE refused to negotiate until nine MOVE members imprisoned for the murder of a policeman during a previous shoot-out in 1978 were released. Shots were fired and the confrontation began. After an eleven and one-half hour battle, police dropped a non- incendiary' device on the roof of the house causing a fire. About 24 hours later, two residential city blocks lay in ruins, destroyed by one of the worst fires in Philadelphia history. Sixty-one homes were destroyed, 250 persons were left homeless, and eleven MOVE members killed. New York, New York — January, 1985 — Nine days after shooting a group of youths that had asked him for money while riding on a New York City subway, Bernhard Goetz turned himself in to the desk officer at a New Hampshire police station.

He was charged with four counts of attempted murder. After the shooting, Goetz was roundly applauded by citizens in the City. All four youths were hos- pitalized and one remains paralyzed below the waist. The Year in Review January 2, 1985 — Photos of missing children were introduced on milk cartons in Chicago.

It is not to confuse you or load your mind full of rules and regulations. Instead, it is to develop fully a unique per- sonality. Each of the Religion coarses at Kennedy are taught with three ideas in mind. According to Father Heron, Religion Department Chairman, the first of these tasks is informational which is the job of the teacher. The teacher is responsible to pass on his knowledge of faith to each individual student. The next obligation is formational which involves a combined ef- fort between teacher and student. This cooperative effort is most important in the developing of a students values and attitudes towards faith. How it's up to the student to take the information given and the formation of values and transform them into their own personal lives. This triangle of goals will aid each student in becoming a better Christian in the eyes of God. Father Heron has planned a new project which will be in- troduced by the Religion De- partment this year and which is entitled Faith Survey. Seniors were given this test in the second semester. It covered their basic understanding of faith developed throughout their high school religion courses. There are numerous questions from each course and it consists of both the in- formation from the Old and Hew Testaments, morality, and basic faith. The purpose of this survey is to try to measure the facts and instructional ele- ments of religious education. The courses' compilation, though, results in one question that will never appear on a test: How well do you know your faith? A discussion is sometimes the best way to define a point.

Throughout the four years spent at Kennedy, we are ex- posed to many types of literature, ranging from Shakespeare and fitzgerald, to Chaucer and Orwell. Students learn about a variety of authors, poets, and playwrights, which span the evolution of American and British literature up to the twentieth century. The English classes at Ken- nedy also provide students with a range of poetry, grammar, writing, and vocabulary skills. The vocabulary and grammar are very important in preparation for the SAT's. Also, by studying poetry, and by deciphering themes and sym- bolisms in literature, we are given the chance to notice theme's in human nature. Knowing the English language simplifies communications.

But don't flinch. Students learn these for a reason. Probably the most frequently asked question is Why do we have to take Latin?'' If you study the romance languages like Spanish or Prench, you will see that many of the Latin roots are present, as they are in English. Eor this reason, it makes sense to study Latin. It serves as an aid or foundation for learning other languages as well as our own. Also, many English words have their origins in Latin and this greatly assists in tests such as the SAT's and College Boards. Latin also promotes good study habits and teaches mental discipline. Around the time that Fresh- men have to choose their elec- tives, the phrase frequently heard is. Which language is easier?' It is often said that Spanish is the more facile language. This is a miscon- ception. neither of these languages is easier and they both contribute to a better vocabulary. So, no matter what modern language is taken, students will benefit from it.

Good notes always assist in studying for a test. He was there . . . In senior year at Kennedy, students take American Govern- ment as their Social Studies course. This class opens with governmental issues ranging from the birth of our nation to the pressing issues of today. But, the students have an op- portunity to learn one area of study in a different way. This area is that of the Vietnam War. During their lesson con- cerning our nation's policies during that crucial period, something special happens. Mr. Charles Leahan, Spanish teacher and Vietnam Veteran, talks to the class about his per- sonal experiences in the war. He fought in Vietnam from May of 1967 to May of 1968 and Mr. Leahan is able to give detailed reflection on actual accounts which occurred during his term overseas. This exciting and in- formative dissertation is very successful with the students and this discussion was plan- ned to span over a few days in January. Instead of merely reading facts from a book, students hear personal insights from someone who really ex- perienced the war, devoid of newspaper sensationalism and Vietnam myths. They inquire about war conditions, and his feelings before, during, and af- ter this episode's existence. Many enjoy having the discourse because, no matter how indirectly, the Vietnam War was a part of our lives. We were born and reared during this era which greatly affected our parents' lives and the generation's before them. Mr. Leahan truly sheds light on a dismal period of American History that until recently was considered taboo. Cathy Gillin and Kim Flanagan enjoy a lighter side to social studies.

The purpose of doing the labs is to demon- strate principals given and to make observation on the facts gathered, says Mr. Marcucci, The Department Chairman. Ob- viously much more is involved in performing these some times-tedious experiments. To begin with, the lab is in- troduced to the students by their respective teachers and its purpose and procedure revealed. One of the most im- portant things taken into con- sideration is the safety of the students while doing these labs. There are many safety rules and precaution that the students must abide by. Tor one thing they wear goggles and a fire proof apron and they have a main gas valve, a fire ex- tinguisher and a shower in back of the room in case of ac- cidents, says Mr. Marcucci. The school takes every precaution to protect the students including a statement signed for Chemistry by par- ents for any accidents and the student is responsible to religiously follow safety precautions. With all these things kept in mind, the lab ex- periments at Kennedy are relatively safe. Unfortunately, this doesn't help your grade any. Sister Joan Melley, S.S.J. English 1, 3.

V What's new Kennedy offers a wide range of strong mathematics programs to its students. The freshmen are required to take Algebra I or Algebra IA and as sophomores progress to Geometry. Juniors have the op- tion of attacking Algebra II or Algebra ll Trigonometry. Seniors, who have survived three prior courses and have become daring, might tackle Trig-Precal or Calculus, a new math program at Kennedy. Calculus, the first ac- celerated math course in three years, is both challenging and difficult and consists of ap- proximately twenty students, which results in a relaxed at- mosphere. A group effort is en- couraged by Miss Ratigan (ex- cept for tests), and according to Rob Pulice, senior Calculus student, It's tough, like something you have never at- tempted to do before. Many students who take Calculus do not realize its prac- in Kennedy tical uses, to which Ms. Ratigan replies that math in general is useful in everyday life but Calculus will be especially help- ful to those who have chosen business or science as their major in college as well as for their career. Many Kennedy students par- ticipate in contests sponsored by Universities and math- affiliated organizations in the Philadelphia Area. The American High School Mathematics Examination, also known as MAA, is annually held in February and is one of many contests offered to the student body. The MAA contests are to challenge the students' knowledge of mathematical skills. In the month of ITovem- ber, Villanova University spon- sors a contest for the top senior math students which challenge not only the students but also it is a test for our fine math program.

Most schools have included in their curriculum a study of Computers, and following along with this recent and lasting trend is Kennedy. Our course at Kennedy is entitled Computer Science ' and is taught by Mathematics Department Head, Miss Roseanne Ratigan. She feels that the only requirement to achieve benefits from this class is, to apply yourself and have a good attitude towards taking computer class. It provides an excellent opportunity to discover the field that has so much become a part of our lives in this new 'Computer Age. ' Typing skills come in handy with a com- puter keyboard.

Somehow it seems our economy would collapse if it weren't for those dastardly lit- tle slips that both young and old despise. Did you ever have trouble doing taxes, or have you observed your parents ex- perience difficulty with them? If so, Mrs. Davenport has the per- fect solution: learn about it from the experts. Mrs. Daven- port explains the tax form procedures to her Accounting I and Accounting II classes, and in turn, you can take the in- formation home and help your parents out. Accounting I students learn basic tax and general in- formation about taxes ' ex- plains Mrs. Davenport, while Accounting II students learn itemized deductions, and other common deductions, such as credit child care, and deduc- tions when the husband and wife work. The form that Accounting I students learn to use is the 1040 EZ. This form is used when there is only one deduc- tion: yourself. Of course this does not assist your parent's monetary problems, but it can help you. When a student reaches Accounting II, he is well-skilled in the 1040 EZ form and can help other students who are unfamiliar with taxes and don't take Accounting. Mrs. Davenport says. We run this free service for anyone who needs help in our school. All they need to bring are the W2 forms and the tax forms. While these students are doing tax forms for others, they are learning to do the 1040A and 1040 tax forms. Learning about these will help your parents and yourself for future use. In the words of Mrs. Daven- port, more and more people are taking accounting because it is the language of business. Payingclose attention is important. Beingexact is mandatory.

What uses imagination? Art in a word: Imagination. The ability to express one's feelings through art is a statement you will usually hear if you talk to a student who is seriously taking this course. Art allows them to think for them- selves and to be creative. Art is a self-exploration where ab- stract thoughts and ideas can be made concrete by placing them on paper. Who takes art? The entire freshman class is required to take General Art. As Sophomores, Drawing and Composition is the elective most often taken, and during junior and senior year one can choose from color and design, Drawing and Composition, and Mixed Media. Studio Art is of- fered only to the seniors. According to Ms. Bernardyn, the Department Chairperson, art is not just a subject; it is a growing process through which one learns patience and per- sonal discipline. Each project that is assigned offers its own unique problem, but through careful observation and train- ing, the key to art, students are able to independently come up with their own solutions. The art classes at Kennedy also give the students a chance to get away from the everyday academic courses. And while the atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable, Kennedy art studen- ts are serious about their work and always strive for ex- cellence. Just stroll by the art room one day if you need proof. You'll see. General Music gives freshmen a basic Knowledge of how music is created. Art is more than drawing a straight line. It's also blending of colors and shapes. Freshmen taking General Art can decide if they wish to continue their art education in the uppcrclasses. What can physically wear you out?

This year they receive the one thing that proves this: class rings. It is a tradition that has endured and has become especially anticipated, hot many would consider choosing a ring to be difficult, but, with the ver- satility of styles presented, the decision is not sim- ple. Many juniors risk life and limb trying to find the right size while they push through the crowd desperately searching for the sample rings. So, you thought you knew the exact ring you were getting, stone, setting, and all? how, though, you've changed your mind every time someone suggests another overlooked detail. Finally, after twelve discarded order forms and a lost lunch period, you decide. Yet, it was all well worth the trouble. At the annual Ring mass, juniors receive their rings during an elegant ceremony that they will remem- ber every time they put the ring on their finger. 42 Margaret DiDomcnico Kelly M. Downey Marie V.

The sophomore guys, on the other hand, arc their suave, calm, normal selves, waiting until the day of the Soph Mop to decide what to wear. Some even wait until the last minute to pick up their date's flowers (like 7:59). At eight o clock the couples start pouring into Tracy Mall. Balloons, streamers and nicely decorated tables meet the eye upon entering the gym. or rather, tonight the dance floor. Girls arc escorted to the picture booth by their dates. The dancing begins and the night seems to fly by. Before they know it the couples are dancing together to the last song of the evening. Everyone agrees that it didn't last long enough yet it was an enjoyable evening for all; one that will be remembered forever. Stuart F.. Gannon Eric K. Gcrgel Robert N. Gcrvasi Mat K.

You rush to find your clothes on the first day of school. Your hair dryer calls it quits and you can't find a clean pair of socks. Your stomach is in knots and to top it all off, you can't find your sad- dles (which may be the only good thing to happen today). You don t know what to expect. Yet, as you frantically search for your classes (sometimes on the fourth floor), you encounter a few smiles. Unexpected smiles. And, for some reason, your stomach knots begin to untie. Your first few classes are so different from what you ve been used to; the teachers are different, too. You feel a new sense of freedom, of belonging. And, a year has begun where not only lasting friendships are made but also self-confidence and pride in yourself.

Spirit Week started off with the Student Council In- stallation, and guest speaker Tug McGraw, who gave us some wise words of wisdom on how to enjoy the effort in all we do. Juniors and seniors also got the chance to talk to represen- tatives from various colleges at the Catholic College fair at Ken- nedy on Wednesday. In addition to offering a well- deserved break from the regular routine. Spirit Week gave everyone the time to relax and enjoy themselves. A perfect example was Misfit Day, when students came to school wearing clashing attire — ugly shirts with ties that definitely did not go, the girls' uniform worn with anything but the regulation school blouses and socks. Each grade had their most outlandish character to represent them: freshman, Peter lannozzi; sophomore, Eric Ham- maday; junior, Brian Schafer; and senior, Michele holmes. The competition grew intense on Blue and White Day, as When asked to dress for crazy-dress days, Eric Hamaday. Brian Schaeffer. Michelle Holmes and Peter lannozzi dug deep into their closets to ap- pear just right. Watch out for eye strain. seniors and freshmen went at it in the Tug-of-War. The faculty even got into the games, but lost the Tug-of-War again (but to the freshmen??). With games such as Passing the Orange, relay races, the Egg-on-Spoon Race, hoola-hoops, and the Balloon Race, students got a chance to see what they could (and sometimes couldn't) do. The day also included the an- nual Obstacle Course in Tracy hall and a sea of yellow, red, blue, green shirts trying out all of the outdoor events. The week ended with Fr. Canavan getting everyone psyched at the Pep Rally. Friday afternoon, the parking lot was filled with trucks and decora- tions as students and teachers worked to prepare the floats for the parade. Then, off to the vic- torious football game against Garnet Valley went the Kennedy supporters. All in all. Spirit Week was very successful, and it did a lot to get everyone involved and promote Saints Pride, both a pride in Kennedy and in ourselves. It's about time we got to see the football team without their helmets. One way to prove strength is a good old fashioned tug-of- Do these boys go here? war. Sophomores dig in their heels and pull.

Blue and White Day wouldn't be complete without the roar of the crowd. What finished that week in October? The tension and anticipation first began when Student Council Secretary Tran Murphy and Treasurer Chris Vandegrift called the senior boys down to the cafeteria. Two additional such meetings followed, as the boys voted for the Homecoming Court, and finally the Queen. Section A-3 turned out to be a very popular homeroom, since the five girls chosen to be on the Court, Hicolette Martinelli, Debbie Mitchell, Colleen Moore, Gina Morell. and Geraldine Murphy, were all from that homeroom. Their escorts were Robert Slawek, Joseph Monastero, William Hine, Anthony Stivaletti, and Paul Glodek. The Homecoming festivities began with the Pep Rally on Friday afternoon. October 18, 1985. The fall sports teams were honored, and Mr. Bockrath talked a little about the Varsity Football team. The Cheerleaders provided more en- tertainment with their cheers and dance. The results of Tuesday's senior poll were announced, which gave everyone a good laugh when John Taylor was named Class Hero!' The Pep Rally ended with the moment the Senior boys had been waiting for — Hick DiDomenico was crowned as the 1985-86 Home- coming King and strutted around the gym. Friday night, after all of the decorations for the floats were finished, the annual parade down Fayette Street began. The seniors led the line-up with their Hawaiian Luau float, followed by the Juniors whose theme was Greek Mythology. The Sophomores were busy being psychedelic, and the freshmen were dressed in fifties outfits. It was an exciting night for the Homecoming Court and the 1985 Homecoming Queen. Colleen Moore, who was crowned during the halftime festivities. The Saints topped off the night with their 12-7 victory over Garnet Valley. Homecoming festivities con- cluded on Saturday night with the Homecoming Dance in Tracy Hall. Colleen Moore, along with her court, presided at the dance.

What is the symbol of upperclassmen In October of 1984, the Class of 1986 ordered their celebrated high school rings. And they waited anxiously, in anticipation of March 7, 1985 when they finally received their symbol of upperclassmen security.'' Yet the rings were not just handed out in homeroom. Such an im- portant event certainly deserves a more elaborate ritual. This celebration was annual Ring Mass, held in Tracy Mall, which was attended by both family and friends. The Mass it- self was a spectacular ex- perience: in addition to the music and decorations, Janine Krepto sang Memories'' to ac- company a slide presentation. It caused the Juniors to ponder on their years past their years hence — and that ring, the symbol of their approaching freedom. Tradition dictates that your ring should be turned 86 times. Tradition lives on. The liturgy is a beautiful way to receive your ring. Maria Oh participates The day you receive your ring should be special. The Ring by bringing up the gifts. Mass makes it so. 60 How do we see the May Procession? A special part of the spring festivities here at Kennedy is the annual May Procession in Tracy Hall. This is the day when the May Queen is given the honor of crowning the Blessed Mother. The Queen, along with her May Court of sixteen Seniors, are elected by the Senior class to represent the school in honoring Mary. The Court shows its reverence before the student body by placing flowers and can- dles at Mary's feet. But the most exciting part of the Mass is the actual crowning of Mother's head by the May Queen. All the students agree that it is a very sacred and special day to recognize Mary as the honorable person she was and always will be. Crowning the Blessed Mother with a wreath of fresh flowers demonstrates our love for her. 62 The ceremony has many symbolic gestures to show our devotion. What is fun? Dancing! It's envigorating and it's fun. And it's certainly not lacking here at Kennedy, since a dance is held each month in Tracy Hall. It all begins with the Back-to- School Dance in September when everyone can forget their pencils and books for a little while longer, next, follows the Homecoming Dan- ce in which the Queen and her Court make their annual parade into the converted gymnasium. The Snow- Ball may be appropriately named for the season, but it's always piping- hot inside. Also, the Beach Dance, smack-dab in the middle of winter, generates its own share of heat. St. Valentine's Day and its dance is the perfect opportunity to show your item” just how much you care, or even get close to someone who never knew you did. These theme” dances are not the only ones held at Kennedy. Some without specific themes are held in months such as April or May, when no real holiday could be used as an excuse to party. Yet, even without motifs, the theme of every dance is simply fun. The first priority is to have a good time. The philosophy of a Kennedy dance is the more the merrier. There's always a mob scene when the doors first open. Who knows where dancing could lead. Broadway, here we come. 63 All dressed up and nowhere to go? The Prom — it's always ner- vously anticipated. Prom the moment the invitations are given out on Valentine's Day to the dwindling hours before the Prom on April 18, you can't help but feel the excitement sur- rounding this memorable and unique occasion. Dresses, tuxedoes, flowers, and pictures all add to the elegant atmosphere, but the most important thing to get for this evening is an escort. Whether it's your regular sweetheart or just someone whom you've admired from afar, this is the perfect opportunity to get a little closer. And, to make the evening an even more special one, the prom committee developed the chic theme City Lights and decorated the hall at Westover Country Club with a few ex- traordinary touches. The ex- travagant city skyline enhanced the atmosphere of the evening and the humorous six foot top hat adorned the entrance. The fragrance and color of the evening stay with you long after the evening ends. ♦ Father McKeaney. with his snappy bow Even in monkey suits and long, stiff dresses, fun is the name of the game, tie, shares a moment with Michele Radat- ti, who always looks great. 1 Charlie Qehrlnger Knows that a straight tie make the whole look work. This is definitely not the cafeteria. Chris Vandegrift and Sue Hauz fit their surroundings to a T. Half the fun is showing off your good taste in clothing. Just one more dance and the evening becomes a wonderful memory. Where would we be without Student The 1985-86 Student Council began long before Installation on October 14, 1985. Last spring President Sue Haux, Vice President Joan Hildebrand, Secretary Fran Murphy, and Treasurer Chris Van- degrift were elected by the student body, when they immediately start- ed planning over the summer for this year's events and activities. One major change in the Council this year is its size. Besides the boy and girl representatives elected in each homeroom, many other students became involved. There are thirty-eight homeroom reps and forty-five Associate Members of the Student Council. The Associates consist of seniors, juniors, and sophomores who wrote a letter to the Student Council moderator, Miss Catherine Molding, asking to be con- sidered for membership. Although this is a large number, it assists the Council greatly if the members are willing to get involved in activities and devote their time to the school. Among the activities the Student Council sponsors are the dances, in- cluding the Back to School Dance, The Homecoming Dance, Sadie Hawkins Day Dance, The Snow-Ball. The Beach Dance, Valentine Dance, and the Spring Fling Dance. The busiest week for the Student Council is Spirit Week, which takes a lot of preparation and planning. An ex- citing addition this year was Tug McGraw, who was guest speaker at the Student Council Installation. The two main events of Spirit Week were Blue and White Day and Homecoming. Secret Shamrock Day, Faculty Breakfasts, and the Chance Drive are also run and supported by the Student Council. During Spirit Week and Christmas, they helped decorate the homerooms and the school. This, in addition to hours of dedication, sums up what Student Council members really do. They must also attend meetings every Monday and act as representatives for their homeroom and class. They sponsor and participate in school activities, and in general, are essen- tial elements in Kennedy because they can be depended on to com- plete whatever has to be done.

This year he is being helped by President Tracy Sivil, Vice President Kevin Dunne, Secretary Barbara Morris, and Treasurer Lisa Trioli. These students along with the members of the NHS, do many things for the community. Every year, around Nalloween, they dress in costumes and visit the hospital to entertain the patients and sing Halloween Carols, bringing a smile to a few unhappy faces. This year's hospital was Sacred heart hospital in Morristown. Around Thanksgiving, MMS has a food drive where money and cans are collected from the students. Then the boxes of food are made and given to poor families. During the Christmas season, NHS organizes Santa Claus letters which are hand- written by the students and mailed to children's homes. Also during school, if a person needs help with a subject, a member will tutor them and assist them either after school or during a free period. All these activities show exactly what the organization is — a caring group of students.

Kennedy has three dedicated cheerleading squads who constantly offer their Saints' Pride to the various teams they cheer on to vic- tory. Here is an explanation of a Ken- nedy cheerleader. One begins as a Blue and White cheerleader, who are often recog- nized as the Freshman team'' yet any grade can participate. They sup- port the Varsity Girls' Basketball team, the Freshman Basketball team. Hext in line is the Junior Varsity squad. Their season begins with J.V. Football, and concludes with J.V. Boys' Basketball. The final step in a Kennedy Cheerleaders life is the Varsity Squad. They have an especially long season founded in Varsity Football when they cheer in sub-zero tem- peratures without complaints. Im- mediately following Football, the Cheerleaders dive into Basketball Season where their special talents are put to use. They prepare a dance routine to be performed at Home games during half-time. And so the cheerleaders can be credited with the win just as much as the team itself because their vivaciousness adds to our Vic- torious Saints Pride.

When is it required to be light on your feet? One of the newest clubs to join Kennedy is the Karate Club. The main objective of this organ- ization is to teach self-defense, not to teach the students to use Karate as a weapon of attack. The members are taught to use this skill only when absolutely necessary. Fred DeStolfo, founder and in- structor of the club, has his own Karate school in Conshohocken, The DeStolfo School of Tae Kwon Do. Mr. DeStolfo is a ninth degree black belt and has been teaching Karate for approximately ten years. On his own spare time he comes to Kennedy to tutor students with his many years of training.

Who says Say Cheese ? Once upon a time. Sister Rose Concetta pictured an interesting new club. This year it has developed — the newly formed Camera Club. Meetings, held every Monday, give students an opportunity to become familiar with the camera and how it operates. Sister Rose demonstrates all of the parts of the camera and explains the dif- ferent processes of photography. After the first few meetings, the members become more acquainted and confident with their cameras and Sister assigns each of them to photograph cer- tain events in school. These assignments consist of liturgies. Holiday presentations. Home- coming and many other school activities. The pictures often are sent to local newspapers in represen- tation of the school. Some, however, are used in our school newspaper. The Mirror, and still others to decorate the school. Many are even used in the Ken- census. The Club, because of its nouveau status, consists of only four members, three juniors and one senior. Hopefully, as its reputation and exposure grows, so will its population.

Un- fortunately, what they do not realize is the hard work and planning that take place in every school function. Many believe that all the Stage Crew does is set up chairs. They are misinformed. Father McKeaney, their moderator, and his industrious students are constantly devising new floor plans, decorations, and special touches that would make the assemblies not only enjoyable, but also memorable. The altar and its elevated platform must be erected for masses, and even special after- school functions, such as the Ring Mass, are tended to by the Stage Crew. Blue and White Day is a perfect example of their hard work. All the activities both in the gym and outside are set up and taken care of by the Crew. Certainly we owe them applause not for being on the stage, but for performing diligently behind the scenes. Standing: Michael Burns. Charlie Tammany. Front Sitting: Den- nis McCleney, Tom Brady.

For several months each year, from February to June, a group of guys comes together to form the Weight Club. They appear willingly each Tuesday and Thursday of the week to the weight room to pump iron. It is not easy. It is not fun and games, though self-satisfaction is often the result. They know that every drop of sweat they give off, they get something back in return. Mr. Bockrath and the other football coaches are building more than just muscles when they run this program. They are forming in each one of these young men a sense of personal dedication. A dedication not only to the body, but, also to the mind. It takes a special kind of person to go out and become a better individual both physically and mentally. However, with the right attitude and a strong com- Kennedy muscle-bound Weight Club. mitment, there is no limit to the goals one can achieve. 73 Savez-vous autour le club francais de Kennedy? If you don't Know what this sentence means (that is. Do you Know about Kennedy's Trench Club?), you must not. The Trench Club, headed by Sister Kuth O'Meill, was formed with the purpose of maKing its members more familiar with the culture and traditions of Trance. Many of their activities also reflect an inquiry about the Trench people. They sometimes visit the Trench restaurant. The Spring Mill Cafe, on Barren Hill Road and also hold a party annually with Trench fries prepared by the members. The students of the Trench II and Trench III classes arc invited to join the club, and they not only study Trench grammar but also its literature and culture. With the help of Sister Ruth and the Trench Club, these students don't have to taKe a trip to Paris to experience the Trench culture. Parlez-vous francais? The Trench Club: Tracey Sivel. Rob Pulice. Sue Brody, Maria Oh. What is the World Affairs Council? The purpose of the World Affairs Coun- cil is to relay current world events and their meaning on our lives to Kennedy students. They attempt to mahe students aware of the international affairs which not only affect the world, but also our- selves. By using Heivsweek magazine, they collect information and pictures to maKe posters, which are displayed throughout the school. The World Affairs headquarters is cen- tralized in Philadelphia, which also af- filiates many high schools throughout the United States. The group was founded by Mr. Murray but is presently headed by Mr. McElhone. It is a small group consisting of President. TranK Steitz. and Vice President. Greg Stanwood. The other major contributors are Pat Dempsey, Secretary, and Tom Blomstrom, Treasurer. What is Mathlpf-ps? World Affairs Council: Patti Dempsey, Gregg Stanwood. TranK Steitz. Tom Blomstrom What is Mathletes? Mathletes is a club for any student who welcomes challenge in mathematical problems. Each weeK, the club meets to practice math for the monthly competition, and studies the topic assigned for that month. Many schools participate in this event, held at different schools each month. There are two teams representing each school, the A-tcam and the B-team which consist of 5 or more members. The students are given a series of timed problems and those schools with the most problems right emerge the victor. The Mathletes and the Advanced Math students taKe a scholastic test every month. This test places the Archbishop Kennedy Students in a nationwide com- petition and ranKs our students with others across the country. Mathletes — Tront row: Janice JanKowsKi. Suzanne Brody.

There are many things that we take for granted — money, clothes, friends, parents, and yes, even God. he is our closest friend. This prin- ciple is one of the major precepts that Archbishop Kennedy is trying to establish in the mind of their students' minds. Since we are a Catholic school, it is only fitting that a club be devoted to the one thing that our religion is based upon: adoration. The blessed sacrament is distributed after a small service in the chapel every day during lunch periods. These opportunities, among others, are devised so that a student can develop a closer relationship, in their own way, to Jesus Christ. Mr. Vadino, who organizes the group, has strong roots in faith and exemplifies this by teaching religion here at Kennedy. Just remember, if God took us for granted and ceased to care for one moment, we would cease to exist. Don't you think you owe him at least a Thank You' ? Where would we be without Music Ministry? A subtly essential organization at Kennedy is Music Ministry. Without the few yet faithful members, our school masses and events would be without music. This group of students is assembled under the leadership of Mr. Joe McElhone who coordinates their talent. Probably, the most recognized member of the Ministry is senior Mark Pinto. For four years he has served our school as the Kennedy Liberace. He is extremely talented when at the ivory keys and is always there performing during masses and assemblies. Other senior members of the ministry are Nicole Miles and Jennifer Sheehan who also add to the beauty at our congregations. Janine Krepto, a sophomore, is another promising member of the Ministry. She has shown her ex- cellent singing continuously and will hopefully continue to bring life to the songs she sings. These four are the most consistent members, of Music Ministry and are often accompanied by a choir and by other students who wish to par- ticipate. Music Ministry — First row: Lori Pulice.

Who begins our day with the news? Good Morning, today is a 'C' day . . If these words sound familiar, they should; it is a typical example of the opening of morning an- nouncements. WAKS, our student- run broadcasting system, was in- troduced to Kennedy in 1983 under the guidance of Ms. Gail Ciociola and consisted of only two an- chormen and approximately four crew members. In the last three years, these numbers have drastically changed. Now, the staff of thirteen anchorpersons and eight camera equipment operators have a fresh new approach concerning the broadcasts. Under the new supervision of our Activities Direc- tor, Anne Murray, who also was responsible for O'Hara's TV station before she came to Kennedy, the station no longer solely does the an- nouncements. Many other programs are included, such as holiday pieces. Homecoming queen and court, com- mercials, guidance news, and ad- vertisements for various school ac- tivities.

This year the Community Service Corps was started by Father Jim McKeaney. The CSC is a group that truly does what its name implies — gives service to the community. The three officers of the CSC are Carol Hauz, Tom Blomstom and Jill Pren- dergast. There are a few major projects which the CSC takes part in during the year. The Crop Walk is a 10 mile walk through Philadelphia whose proceeds go to the needy across America. The CSC also runs a clothing drive in November. Ken- nedy students bring in old clothes, which the CSC members bag and send to the poor in Philadelphia. On Christmas Eve the Community Ser- vice Corps participates on Operation Santa Claus, which allows students to dress as Santa or his elves, and give out toys to underprivileged children in the Philadelphia area.

A Letter from the Editor: During the course of a school year. Archbishop Kennedy ex- periences a number of school events and many students take part in the various school clubs and organizations. At the Ken- census, it is our responsibility to create a yearbook which will produce a vivid picture of classroom and school life at Ken- nedy. The final copy is a compact review of Kennedy student life. The production of the year- book begins in September and is concluded in the middle of February. Many hours of the week are spent after school in the publications office creating layouts, writing copy, and taking pictures. The Kencensus is under the guidance of Mrs. Ruth San- toni, who has given a great amount of time and hard work to this yearbook. She and I, along with Maria lannozzi our copy editor, have spent many hours planning and producing the best book that we could have. I am extremely happy with the Kencensus staff this year. This staff stood by Mrs. Santoni and myself until the very end. Each one has given their best to par- ticipate in the production of this yearbook. I would personally like to thank Mrs. Santoni, Maria lan- nozzi, and the entire Kencensus staff for their participation, hard work, and a job well done. Also, the entire Kencensus staff and myself would like to thank Father Canavan, Sister Helen Raphael, Miss Carol Cher- necky. Father John, and Miss Murry (Patron Saint of Tissues) for all their support with this year's Kencensus.

All the world's a stage, and we are all merely players . . . Despite the seriousness of acting, producing, and organizing theatrical events, the members of Cast and Curtain Co. still find time to have fun. In fact, they always find the time. Ms. Gail Ciociola, who was on sab- batical first semester, is the usual ringleader in this creative circus but was aided by Miss Anne Murry and Mrs. Ruth Santoni who took her place in directing the 1985 Cof- feehouse. The Coffeehouse was definitely Good to the last drop. Held in November, this is the first of Cast and Curtain's major performances. Booster Hall, the beloved alma mater of the club, is where all the shows are produced, including the Coffeehouse. This event consists of poetry readings (both of students' and of famous authors'), live music, excerpts from plays, lip-syncs, dance, and skits. During the interim between the Coffeehouse and the other main production, the One-Act Play Festival in May, many acting workshops and meetings are held. The two presidents this year, Debbie Venezia and Janice Jankowski not only preside over in Booster, they also add their own special touches. The One-Act Play Festival is the other main event on C C's agen- da and runs for three days in May. Auditions are held in March for the various roles in six plays to be per- formed. Some of these are even writ- ten by students. The celebrated moment that every Cast and Curtain member eagerly awaits is Kennedy s version of the Emmys — the Ken- nys. Trophies are awarded for first, second, and third place per- formances, often there are ties, which are given by members of Rosemont College's Jest and Jesture Co. who judge the plays each year. The Envelope — PLEASE! If every man is merely a player, no matter how small their part, they are essential. Cast and Curtain Co. knows this all too well, and it is what has brought them together more as a family than simply as a club.

Paperwork, phone calls, let- ters; all of these things can sometimes become a very heavy burden. After all, Kennedy is dif- ficult enough to run for our numerous secretaries and they do deserve some help. Enter the Office Aids. They are an important contribution to Kennedy and spend their free periods assisting in various of- fices by answering phones and sometimes even doing paper- work. The Aids' service is completely volunteer work, at the beginning of the school year it is an- nounced that helpers are needed in the offices, such as the Discipline, Activities, and Business Offices. The secretaries and assistants are very grateful that these students are willing to take time out and lift some of the burden of the office workers' shoulders. Archbishop Kennedy Office Aids.

This year Kennedy introduced a group appropriately named the Zoo Crew.

The first sign of this sport was the leveling off of the stretch of land, behind Booster Hall, to prepare for a brand new soccer field. The field would not be used, though, until the following year due to development and fertilization which would be going on well into the 1985 soccer season. This year's team plays its home games at Miles Park next to Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School. The team itself came together during the latter part of the summer and held practice during the hot, humid months of August and early September. The first game would take place before school even start- Part of being a good soccer player is being light on your feet. ed, on September third at home against Devon Prep. The soccer team would go on to post a 2-5-2 record for the season, which is ex- ceptional for a newly established team, with only four weeks of prac- tice. Listed as a JV team. Kennedy surprised many of its opponents, some of which were varsity teams with soccer programs older than our school building itself. The season would have some trying times, its ups and downs, but through it all the team would hold together. United with the en- thusiasm of the school, the soccer team excelled against much op- position to form a premise for a new and lasting tradition.

Is this how you play the game? The Archbishop Kennedy Saints football Team concluded a very hard fought season with a record of 3-6-1. The Saints opened the season successfully with a 13-6 victory over Wissahickon. The following week. Kennedy played its Catholic League arch-rival. Roman Catholic. Roman stunned the Saints with a 19-6 vic- tory. giving Kennedy its first loss. The Saints followed with an out- standing defensive performance, ending in a 0-0 tie with Springfield. After a 31-28 loss to Bristol, Ken- nedy came into harriton with a 1-2-1 record. The Saints crushed harriton 20-0 for their second shutout of the season. Kennedy's next opponent was Morrisville. The Saints played great defense for three quarters but fell in the fourth as the Bulldogs prevailed 27-14. The following week the Saints played the Garnet Valley Jaguars in the 1985 Homecoming Game. The Saints recorded a significant 12-7 win and evened their record to 3-3-1. In their final games of the season, Kennedy lost three in a row to Ger- mantown Academy 7-0, Lansdale Catholic 28-6, and Plymouth- Whitemarsh 2 1 -0. A number of Kennedy players were named to the Coaches Bicentennial All-League Team. Mike Cross, Tim Alexy, Bud McDermott, and Charlie Gehringer were named to the first team, and Chris Maiden, Dan Mc- Tamney, Ken Riccardi, and fran Murphy were among the players named to the second and third teams. At the close of the season, Tim Alexy was named the Archbishop Kennedy Most Valuable Player. Before his injury against Garnet Valley, he recorded 3 interceptions, and led the team with 92 tackles, 3 fumble recoveries, and 5 quar- terback sacks.

Working together to get possession of the ball are Christine Porrino and Sue Naux. At the beginning of the 1985 season, who knew what to expect? The field hockey team could be described as a little disorganized, but they got their act together by the end of the season. The loss of former coach Mrs. Kathy Cham- pagne caused a slight delay, but Kristina Smith took over the team and did a fine job of getting the ball rolling. The varsity tri-captains Colleen Henry, Sue Haux, and Debbie Mit- chell set the momentum for their teammates to follow. They worked well with their new coach to help develop teamwork and cooperation among the players. After the loss of seven talented seniors last year, it took a lot of work to fill those positions. Both Cathy Entenman and Sue Haux have played the right and left wing positions, respectively, since sophomore year. Colleen Henry and Tracy Sivel completed the offense as the inners with great support from juniors Maureen Henry and Marie DeBarberie as ' links.' On defense, Debbie Mitchell and Michele Qlodek were key in- struments in preventing penetration in the circle. Two of next year's great strengths will be defensive players Ruth Lane and Kathy Tierney. The two new goalies Jody Samarco and Kristin VVittig played outstanding defense for the Saints. Although their record of 2-7 doesn't sound that impressive, the girls gave it their all, learned how to work together, and had a lot of fun at the same time.

Basketball is a game that requires dedication, hard work, and concentration, and the Saints feel that they can fulfill these requirements. After establishing a .500 record last season as a senior oriented team, this year the Saints will be a much younger team with one starting senior. I feel that even though our team consists of young players, they can be a great team. Our team has to work on turnovers and teamplay. Once we do that, this will be a great young team,'' explained first year coach Jim Shaffer. Kennedy's team shows to be a great threat in late quarters because of the tremendous depth of the squad. Because four of the five starting positions are held by younger players, Ken- nedy could prove to be a dominate team for the future. The Saints Basketball Team in- cludes: seniors — Bob Yetter, Bob O'Connor, Dave Chiodo, Mike Dempsey, Jerry Maier, Paul Qlodek, Tom Morrisey, and nick lademarco; juniors — Ivo Salvi, Tom Blomstrom, and Joe Tin- neny; sophomore Don Butler and freshman Chris Kaufman. The players on junior varsity should make an excellent con- tribution on the varsity level in the years to come. They include: Don Staudonmayer, Mark Dylin- ski, Steve Corbett, Scot Thrope, Mark Mitchell, Sean Planagan, Rob Qervasi, Jaff Malazita, Ron Halas, Jim Mann, George Wolfinger, Bill Wolfe, Dave Min- nick, Joe Seaner.

Both in- structors had their work cut out for them especially when Erin Mc- Carthy. who played guard on the varsity team, was injured in a game and was unable to play for the rest of the season. Mr. Dabagian decided to take two sophomores, Lori Lynch and Susan Maloney, from the junior varsity team and put them in the varsity squad. When Lori and Susan began playing for the varsity team, their speed and natural ability in ball handling assisted the team a great deal. Jack Dabagian makes sure Cathy Stillman understands exactly what he wants her to do. Teamwork makes this team good. Terri Schultz takes a short shot after a fine pass from Peggy Wisniewski.

When the Archbishop Kennedy Saints Baseball Team takes the field in the spring, they will be defending yet another Bicentennial League Title, for many years, our baseball teams have been challenging league opponents and have been winning, but baseball has been over- shadowed by the continuing ex- cellence of the football team. The Saints have always upheld Ken- nedy's winning tradition but never looked for praise or commendation. Kennedy's winning baseball seasons are due to fine coaching and team- work. Last year, in an outstanding season, the Saints marched to the top and remained there until the end of the season. This year, the Saints will be looking for some of the same suc- cess as in past years. With the Saints' outstanding pitching and fielding, this promises to be another great season.

We have a close-knit team and a lot of spirit. We re like a family. Ruth Lane, junior, describes her fellow teammates on Kennedy's Softball team in anticipation of a good season. Considering their line-ups and coaches, Mr. Leahan for varsity and Mr. Tomlinson for junior var- sity. With only 3 seniors missing from last season and many ex- perienced underclassmen on the team, they have a strong upper- hand. As the girls gain ex- perience, they make up for the loss of seniors. This year, there are also a small number of seniors on the squad which are exceedingly outnumbered by the Juniors. In fact, they have only one senior pitcher, Barbara Ram- bo, as compared to the 4 juniors, Ruth Lane, Jennifer Tlaherty, Cathy Stillman, and Marie DeBar- berie. When faced with such previously threatening teams as Bristol and Lansdale, their strength, youth, and speed assist in leading them down the road to the championships. Warming up before the game starts helps Terri Schultz perform better. One of the reasons the Junior Varsity team is successful is the expert coaching of Mr. Tomlinson.

Cross Country, a sport of strength and endurance, is coached by Mr. John Briner, and consisted of five boys and four- teen girls. This year, Kennedy's home course is located at Miles Park and is 2.7 miles long. The girls team did very well this year. They captured first in the hill Top Invitational, the first team from Kennedy ever to win an invitational meet. The girls team also finished an un- defeated season in the Bicen- tennial League and won the league championship. Junior Jill Prendergast finished in first place in leagues followed by Sophomore Robyne Bondi in fif- th, Junior Carol haux in tenth. Senior Susan haux in eleventh, and Sophomore Lori Lynch in fif- teenth. Our girl team finished in fourth place in the district meet and Jill qualified to run in the State Championship. Junior Paul Vandergrift ran an undefeated season and won the Bicentennial League, District, and State Championships. Senior Chris Vandergrift finished in thir- teenth place in the League Championship. Jill Prendergast accepts the Bicentennial League first place award for the whole team. Way to go girls!

These are just a few phrases uttered on the court as the Saints Volleyball team works toward the Catholic League playoffs. The girls had only one loss in last year s season, and it was that same team. Saint Maria Goretti, that defeated the Saint s in the playoffs. This year's seniors and juniors have a shot at the league title again this year. Although three of last year’s senior starters are missing, present seniors Cathy Cntenman, Denise Ambs, Sue Haux, Tracy Sivel, Sue Westgate, and Michele Hanna are well experienced. They work well with returning varsity under- classmen Maureen and Sue Maloney. Along with the many other returning junior and sophomore players, the volleyball team looks in good shape for this season and are well prepared to face Saint Maria Goretti and emerge victorious. Michelle McCarthy passes the ball to keep the volley going. The setter. Tina Magliente, sets the ball up for a spike. With luck the opposing team won t make a return. Sharon McCann demonstrates good technique to return the ball. 102 Chris Pasqclleni looks on as the ball is bumped and put over the net by Missy Drozd.

The track team this year con- sists of many experienced up- perclassmen, who will set the example for the new freshmen runners. The team, coached by Mr. Briner, anticipates repeating last year s success in the League, District, and State meets. The girls ran away with the Bicen- tennial League Title, and many members of the track team made it to the Districts. The girls who did exceptionally well were the two mile relay team consisting of Lauren Guy, Marianne Longacre, Jill Prendergast, and Carol haux. These girls won Districts to qualify for States, and then won the Finals. Paul Vandergrift ran extremely well for the boys, win- ning the mile run at the District and State meets. With these accomplishments to look back on for inspiration, the team will run even better than they did last year. The long, high, and some are even hoping for a new school record. The discus and shotput throwers train to throw that extra foot or inch for victory. The team has strength, youth, and dedication which certainly contribute to their inevitable success. With a will to win. Carol Haux con- centrates on that finish line. Come on John Preite! All you need is a lit- tle extra push. Chris Vandegrift is an accomplished runner as well as responsible officer of Student Council. Front row: Jill Prendergast. Carol Haux. Robyne Bondi. Sue Haux. Back row: Lauren Guy.

Most of us will eventually run into one of these devious lit- tle acronyms. Some students anticipate the day when they will score a 1500 and receive automatic acceptance into Har- vard. For some, though college seems a bit distant and they simply want to pursue an oc- cupation without college education. The difficult part in all this is actually choosing your career. This endeavor is probably the most ominous decision a per- son will have to face in his life. 113 Carolyn M. DiLello Annette A. Donahue Jennifer M. Donnelly Kevin M. Dunne Catherine F.

CASE 86 EVIDENCE: Scnioritis Its beginning stages are dif- ficult to detect. Walkmans pop up from nowhere. Grades drop drastically. Even the Einsteins aren t enthused. Chaos, caused by severe mental relaxation brings dismay to the faculty. Scientists have been ex- perimenting with seemingly normal students who metamorphose into rampant renegades when the second quarter rolls around. They have linked the psychological factors to excessive daydreaming, in which sand and palm trees of- ten recur. Shock treatment has been proposed as a possible solution, but most seniors display immunity to it. 123 Christine T. Porrino Tricia V. Poulson John J. Preite Robert C. Pulice Michele M.

We will miss, and we will be missed. Our lives now are truly shaded in mystery, and the question marks seem to dangle over our heads in this period of uncertainty. But, still, there is Kennedy, for some reason, we find an excuse to return for just a visit, long after graduation when we are settled into our new lifestyles.

Best of Luck Always! Heaven knows what is at the other end of the rope. 130 Do you remember this? A picture is worth a thousand words, not to mention a few hundred memories. Each time you look at a photograph an immediate picture comes to mind — who, what, where, and when — and you may begin to reminisce about a place and time locked in your mind forever. Often, words need not accompany these mental pictures, for they speak for themselves. The class of 1986 — from the students with the most demerits in their sophomore year to the best SAT scores in Kennedy's recent history — has such memories. They were the last class to see Mr. Purcell as principal for an entire class. They took an unforgettable trip to Washington freshman year. They knew Mr. Shamos Bradley, and they saw many traditions initiated and started their own. four years have passed, rather quickly, since they were freshmen and many things have changed not only in Kennedy, but also in them- selves. One thing that will remain constant, though, is the memory of freshman year, when everything is certainly fresh. ' Since then Ken- nedy has gradually become familiar, each day in school a new experience and a new memory — memories cap- tured in pictures and in their hearts. Even as a freshman Anthony Stivaletti caught girls eyes. french fries were a usual lunch meal for Music brings smiles to Kim Ryan and Eva Annette Donahue as a freshman. Grillo as they tour Washington, D.C. Jody Samarco and Tricia Poulson take a break from the schoolwork to smile for the camera. Enthusiasm isn't always a freshman s look on life. 132 I X I What's in and what's out?

We have created memories which will remain with us for a lifetime. In Student Council. Sue Haux was elected President; Joan Hildebrand, Vice President; Fran Murphy, Secretary, and Chris Vandegrlft, Treasurer. The Homecoming Court featured Geraldine Murphy, Deborah Mit- chell. Hicolette Martinelli, Gina Morrell, Colleen Moore, and their escorts Paul Glodek, Joseph Monastero, Robert Slawek, Anthony Stivaletti, and William Hine respec- tively. During halftime at the Homecoming Game, Colleen Moore was crowned Homecoming Queen and Gina Morrell was first runner- up. Michele Holmes was the senior representative for Crazy Dress Day and the seniors had the best float for the Homecoming Parade. Hick DiDomenico was named 1985 Homecoming King. The most humorous door during Spirit Week went to A-4. Students were treated to a visit and talk by Tug McGraw during Student Council installation ceremonies. The Class of 1986 will also be known for their recordbreaking achievements. The Seniors excelled in their SAT scores, which were bet- ter than those in several years past, but we cannot forget the 1983-84 school year in which our class set the school record for most demerits in a year. On June 6, as we leave Im- maculate Heart of Mary Church as graduates of Archbishop Kennedy High School, we will know that we are now a part of the great tradition of excellence Kennedy exemplifies. Kennedy has given us a foundation on which to build our lives and the values to sustain it. Wherever our paths may lead, Kennedy will always be a part of us and we a part of Ken- nedy. 136
