Bishop Noll High School - Marquette Yearbook (Hammond, IN)

Billions and billions! Packed like sardines into the football bleachers, BNI students sit as close together as possible to cheer on the band the day before Music Bowl IV. Smile! You’re on Video Yearbook. Experimenting with something new, Mr. Hofferth interviews and taped Orientation and other school events to be used for the yearbook. Dazed and confused. Getting back into the same old grind, Sophomore Chrissy Hajduch sits quietly and unenthusiastically for her class to be called for the band pep rally. Opening 3

Like Tfott Other s we rubbed suntan oil on our bo- A dies, the idea of school and world affairs never entered our minds. We laid back, offered our bodies to the sun, enjoyed the view of the beach, and hummed along with the songs “Every Breath You Take” and “Maniac.” This was a typical day for most of us. Not everyone was at the beach though. Some worked, went to various camps to shar¬ pen various skills, or travelled to other coun¬ tries on the Student Exchange Program. Time flew by us. Before we knew it, the dreaded letters informing us that Orienta¬ tion was only a week away arrived in the mail. That last week saw almost more fun, sun, and just plain bummin’ around than our entire summer. When we entered the doors for Orie nta¬ tion, we were immedately asked if we wanted to buy a “I Love BNI” bumper sticker. The friends we saw all summer and the people we tried to avoid were all there. The Freshmen weren’t sure if they should buy a bumper sticker or class t-shirt. The daily routine of waking up before the sun was up was fastly approaching. It goes on and on and on. Seeing no end in sight, Senior class president Bob Hajduch tries to keep the class chain untangled and in order at the football Homecoming pep rally. Hey, What ' s up? Catching the photographer’s attention, Juniors Beth Witkewiz and Jean Kolbus strike up a “cool dude” pose at the end of religion class. 2 Opening

Like Other School began. Once Freshmen learned the difference between the A and B buildings, Bishop Noll became the familiar place we remembered. Homecoming activities started off slowly, but finished with a bang, and the battle of which class could buy the most links was under way. The girls began to “toughen up” for their first Powder Puff Football Game. The boys donned wigs and acquired extremely developed bodies to en¬ tertain the crowd during halftime. The fall musical production of “Fiddler on the Roof’ was a smashing success as was the Third An¬ nual Battle of the Bands. We couldn’t forget about the outside world for long. As we sat in our ripped sweat¬ shirts, we were reminded daily on the news of the death and destruction in Lebanon and the invasion of Grenada. With all of that happening, we had to settle down and cram for our semester finals. To make matters worse, the week finals were held was also the week sub zero temperatures lingered making life miserable. We cursed our parents for not living in California. Things were changing all around us. WE were guaranteed a year Like Noll Other. The line begins all the way down there. While waiting in line to see her counselor, Junior Kristen Sambor discusses the changes she is asking for her upcoming classes with Miss Trawinski. Clownin’ around. Everyone was enthusiastic about the Thursday night Homecoming parade. These two Sophomores, Laura Fanno and Michaeline Lipkovitch, really got into the spirit of things by dressing up as clowns and walking besides their float in the parade. 4 Opening
