Guidance: Strengthening of values thru encounter Where does one turn when there are proHems? To the Guidance Center, of course! Both stu- dents and administration learned to rely heavily on this fine group of people during the times of crisis that occured throughout the past school year. With over four years behind her of Guidance experience, Sister Sue performed her administra- tive duties with joy and thoroughness. Whether it be the giving of scholastic exams or the ex- planation of the course offerings for the follow- ing school year, her organizational talents and personal concern are always noticeable. Assisting her by scheduling seniors for their future plans and helping sobbing Freshmen find their classrooms were Mr. Al Gironimi and Sister Kathleen. Even though this was only their first year in the Guidance business, they showed warmth and concern to all and made the Center a place eagerly visited by both faculty and stu- dents. In addition to these fine people, the Arch- diocese gave us a fine charsimatic chaplain in the person of Father Gary Bueche. Greatly con- cerned about Gallagher students, he is a wit- ness to real Christianity in our lives. Mr. Al Gironimi Fr. Gary Bueche Fr. Gary leads the Student Body in one of the many liturgies celebrated throughout the school year.

Sister Miriam Ms. Nivison Mr. O ' Connell Ms. O ' Connell Mr. Puhl Ms. Sulfaro Ms. Buhl There once was a man named Jesus who, with a small group of followers, tried to make people think twice about their relig- ious values and about the Church with which they had become identified. Jesus spoke to many people, and the people were impressed by his kindness and strength and some people even said that Jesus could do extraordinary things. He challenged people to face the realities of their lives and the cruelties they were inflicting upon their neighbors. He even went so far as to attack the leaders of the people, accusing them of hypocrisy and legalism. He became increas- ingly more popular and people from radical political groups came to listen to him and some even followed him for many months so that they might learn the secret of this man ' s popularity and wisdom. Wherever he went, crowds gathered. Afterall, this cer- tainly was a good excuse to interrupt the routine of a dull day. He spoke of money problems and made many of them feel secure in their poverty. He spoke of hate and love and reminded them that it is in their own minds that such thoughts origi- nate. And as his followers increased, so did his enemies. Power must seek to maintain it- self. If it does not, it will quickly fall vulner- able to another power. Power must prove its strength. Whether the power be kindness or hate, money or poverty, sin or grace, it must struggle to retain its superiority. Thus the power of Jesus died. Sophomore religion students initial the opinion- posters in an effort to see where they stand in relations to others. .y-
