Not only does it display the work of photographers and copy writers, but it is the tangible evidence of creative thought. By its own existence it is a last- ing piece of art. This additional factor, however, must also be considered. There was a moment in our youth, and the ' 68 Echo contains within its picture-walls a history of that brief period. Brief though that moment was, it was a time for many things. The joys of success and the in- sight that comes with failure; the fun of friend- ship and the happiness of learning about people and things. Truly, we can say with Ecclesiastes, M ' . - l ' ' ' ' % . %.

Robert J. Hammond, principal, and Sister Maureen Therese, assistant principal, have once again played a big role in making the ' 67- ' 68 school year the success it has been. The CC faculty, consisting largely of many new members, both religious and lay, has been a great help to all. New teachers have joined in the ranks of those who were already experienced in the ways of CC living. They, too, have given their time and effort for the total education of the students of Central Catholic. 16 STRIVING FOR EXCELLENCE What is it that makes a good teacher? Is it dedication? Is it con- cern for youth and the desire to guide them toward a better life? Is it a pursuit for excellence? All these things must be con- sidered, and they are found in the men and women who staff the classes and departments of Cen- tral Catholic. Pictured on this page are Father Camillo Tirabassi, Mrs. Frances Robbins and Mrs. Vereda Main, Sister Mary Neil, Miss Donna Giere, Sister Andrew, and Mr. Martin Tierney. fS . ■ .. 17 tm - ' - CCH8 Serves Adminisiration Moves Ahead Although the people shown on this page have important duties at home or in the diocese, they devote much time to the betterment and development of Central Catholic.

Undertakings were met and conquered as new interesting goals, with the help and understanding of Sister Mary Fran- ces, moderator, and the leadership of Tom Freistroffer, president; Margaret Rosswurm, vice-president; Dave Bier- baum, treasurer; and Bob VanRooyen, secretary. One of the first big projects of the year was a smoldering problem. Class unity seemed to be down and no one knew why. But this didn ' t set the vivacious Juniors back. Instead they put their heads together and came out as a strong unit. After much worrying and planning about decorations, publicity, tickets, dresses, and whatever else is included in Junior Proms, Purple Haze be- came a reality. The Junior Class officers ore: Tom Freistroffer, president; Margaret Rosswurm. vice-president; Dove Sierbaum, treasurer; Bob VanRooyen, secretary. The Junior Congress is shown here. Seated left to right ore: Linda Megles, Julie Maher, Rita Fox, Rita Snyder, Marsha Shaffer, Marsha Neuhaus.

In the base of an individual there is a capacity and a time to become a part of something involv- ing more than just that individual; something requir- ing the effort and talents of many. Projects, dances, and fun fill up the exciting mo- ments when there is so much to do and v hen that particular ability to stretch those moments into memories becomes so evident. This time brings with it the opportunity to learn about the joys of working and sharing responsibili- ties with friends and the grown-upness it takes to get along with others in a situation. And yet, funny as it may seem, this sharing and giving helps that individual more than anything which can be accomplished independently. There was a time for that development. That was sopho- more year; that was a time to become part of a class. A Time To Belong Left to right are Council members Maureen McCue, Sharon Alt, and Lucy Avila.

Winning the Seaway Candy Drive was the happy job of Room 208, led by Sister Ann Carita. Other freshman rooms won second and third prizes. They are 309, Miss AAcClaren, and 206, Sister Andrew.

In everything from the Candy Drive to sports to scholastic achievement, the frosh showed much effort. A skit put on by one of the Latin classes showed the rest of the student body the frosh wit and creativity. Pic- tured at the right are some of the boys who participated in it. The frosh girls ' volleyball team won the GAA Volleyball Tournament in No- vember. They defeated the seniors in the championship game. Miss Heighway was proud of the girls, many of whom had just learned the art of volleyball in the preceding months. James Carl is the center of attraction in the Latin skit. Bearing the great coach are Jerry Seyfert, Mel Johnson, John Herber and Tom Schnurr.

One of the many bright spots in life at Central Catholic is the Athletic Department. Every season brings its own parade of sports, and this year teams from CC looked very im- pressive as they appeared in com- petition with other schools in the Fort Wayne area. Led by dedicated and hard- working coaches, the Fighting Irish sought and attained victory and excellence. Pictured on this page are Hank Freistroffer, Dan Banut and Dave Bogenschutz; Mark Derheimer; Mike Betts; Maureen McCue; Mike Bird, and Tony Ortiz and other members of the champion Fresh- man football team receiving the City trophy from Father Ham- mond. Appearing on the opposite page is Coach Brent Anderson congratulating Norb McAfee and Steve Biesiada for fine gridiron activity. ; J 85 i ' ■■ Rghting Irish Never Quit Although the Irish grid record of four and five was somewhat disappointing, the CC backers were treated to a sea- son of exciting football. Members of opposing squads ad- mitted that CC had the hardest hitting team in the city. Highlights of the season included victories over Central and South Side, both of whom were rated favorites. ?r ' ' was. the second consecutive year that the Irish ruined South ' s title hopes. The season was marred by injuries to key, experienced seniors. In many cases underclassmen capably filled in, raising hopes for the future. One of the season ' s early casualties was Hank Freistroffer, pictured at the left in a fine run against Luers at the pre-season jamboree. Head Coach Builds Men One of the main reasons for the spirit and drive of the Fighting Irish is Heod Football Coach, Brent Anderson. Shown at the right in pre-season workouts with the team.

All through the season the spirit of the team was kept high by the fire and enthusiasm of captain Tony Ortiz and co-captain Chuck Statz. The team v as coached by Mr. Hem- minger and Mr. Martone. The squad members were high in their praise of these two fine coaches. Central Catholic ' s reserve football team played through a rough season with fight and determination. They opposed Central, Elmhurst, Bishop Luers, Bishop Dwenger and South Side. Coach Dwight Craft commented, Many members of the team showed a great deal of individual ability. This year proved that CC should have a strong football team for several years to come. 90 Varsity Cheerleaders Qhow Enthusiasm shown in formation are the varsity cheerleaders: Sue Coffee on Carmen Escobedo, Debby Block on Linda Ranly, with Kathy Ward in the center. One of the biggest reasons why Central Catholic has great spirit is the cheerleading squad. Carmen Escobedo was the captain this year. She was joined by seniors Kathy Ward and Debby Block, and juniors Sue Coffee and Linda Ronly. The varsity cheerleaders spent last summer at cheer- leading camp, where they learned many new jumps, cheers, and stances. 91 Winding up a tremendous season with Central Catholic ' s first Sectional win are these happy Irishmen.

Both men, assisted by Mr. Paul Miller, led the Irish to one of the brightest seasons in CC basketball history. There is a time for everything, and this year it was time for the Irish to walk off with well-earned fame and glory, highlighted by the winning of the Sectional Championship. Coach Youngpeter ' s squad posted an impressive 13-5 record in regular play. In tournament play they won both the Irish Invitational and the Fort Wayne Sectional Number One. Principal Rev. Robert Hammond com- mented often on the fine team spirit and smooth discipline of the squad. Local sports writers and newsmen were also high in praise of the ability and great cooperative effort of the Irish. There ' s a time for everything, and this year was CC ' s time for cutting down the nets! 92 HBGSSaS   ■  , X I Team Wins Third Irish Invitational The number 3 proved lucky for the Irish basketball squad as they won the Irish Invitational. It had been three years since the Irish had last won the tourney crown. This win marked the third time in the eight year history of the tournament that CC has taken all the marbles. The field consisted of Elmhurst, South Side, Concordia, and CC. First round contests were won by Elmhurst 61-46 over South and by CC, 69-60 over Concordia. The championship game saw the Irish nip the Trojans 60-58.

Frosh Teams Battle While the varsity basketball squad posted a fine record during the ' 67- ' 68 basketball season, the reserve team found competition a bit stiffer. Under the direction of Coach Dwight Craft, the boys battled through many hard-fought games. Although It was not a winning season for the team, spirit and drive remained high, a true sign of real Fighting Irish. Coached by Mr. Paul Miller, the freshman basketball team also found the going rough in season competition with other schools in the Fort Wayne area.

Coach Mulligan ' s Tennis Team Plays Well Juniors comprised the main body of Central Catholic ' s tennis team, as se- nior Greg Straessle and sophomore Richard Ehinger joined Coach George Mulligan on the squad. The team played in competition with other Fort Wayne schools at the Fort Wayne Tennis Center in East Sweeney Park. Many spectators felt the team was much improved over the ' 67 season.

Par- ticipation in CC ' s various organi- zations leads to service to the school and to self-improvement. Teachers and students who give time and effort to organiza- tions and activities are often never recognized for their service, but life at CC would be very in- complete without them.

During the monthly meetings the or- ganization plans many different and exciting projects. The Chanson Fiesta, a Spanish- French-English hootenanny, held on Sunday, December 3, was the first big undertaking. The members of both Spanish and French Clubs joined to- gether and took turns singing songs in different languages entertaining a larger than expected audience in the Clinton Room. The following month, a banquet took place at the home of Steve Bon- sib. The students enjoyed the French Cuisine which they prepared them- selves with the help of Michele Bros- chart. Taking time out for a song are Sister Mary Frances and the French Club officers, Steve Bonsib, president; Sheila Farrell, secretary; Art Miller, treasurer, and Mike Marciniak, vice-president. Spanish Arts Offer Variety This year the Spanish Club combined with the French Club and presented the Chanson Fiesta. This bilingual pro- gram showed the school the splendor of the foreign languages that are of- fered to them in the curriculum. During summer vacation the Spanish Club helped the migrants that came to Bluffton to pick the tomato crop during the harvesting season. Before school ended last year committees were form- ed and on assigned days the different groups went to the Bluffton area to help these people. Moderator of the Spanish Club is Sister Josita. Kathy Imler, senior, holds the office of president. Vice-president is Tom Jones, also a senior. Viola Rod- riguez and Rita Fox are secretary and treasurer, respectively. The Mexican Hat Dance fits the spirit of the Spanish Club officers: Kathy Imler, president; Viola Rodriguez, secretory; Rita Fox, treasurer; Sister Josita, moderator, and Tom Jones, vice-president. 110 ' Chanson Fiesta ' Brings New Vitality To CC Venez! Van! were the enthusi- astic cries of French and Spanish stu- dents as Central Catholic students and their friends attended CC ' s first Chan- son Fiesta in the Clinton Room, Dec. 3. Chanson Fiesta is a translation from both languages. Chanson is the French word for the song and Fiesta is the Spanish word for feast. The program was planned by the modern language teachers. Sister Mary Frances, Mr. Martin Tierney, Sister Jo- sito, and Miss Kinder. Tom Jones and Steve Bonsib shared honors as masters of ceremonies at the evening assembly. Several special numbers were done by individual classes, and Donna Brannon sang Adios Amor. Kathy Imler and Mr. Tierney sang a duet, Perfidia. Sophomore Jon Stanski appeared in one of the numbers dressed as a clown. This was to accompany Spanish I ' s rendition of El Payaso. The foreign language songfest was judged to be a great success by the students, teachers and parents who at- tended. This type of activity proved in an- other way that CC students are very high in talent and creativity. Katy Kelly Presides Over Latin Meetings Semper Fidelis! Pictured below are the officers of CC ' s Latin Club. Seated is Sister Helen Mary, moderator. Standing are Julie Maher, secretary; Kevin McBride, vice-president; Katy Kelly, president; Barbara Thomas, treasurer. The Latin Club is comprised of stu- dents taking third and fourth year Latin.

Barbara Thomas and Julie Ma- her, both juniors, were secretary and treasurer, respectively. The Latin Club held its meetings on the last Friday of each month in Room 300. Each meeting was planned by two members with the help of Sister Helen Mary, Latin Club Moderator. in Journalism After many months of dedicated work, Sister Joel, and co-editors Linda Weinhold and Kathy Imler, have put down their rulers, pencils and dum- my sheets.

Juniors from Sister Joel ' s Journalism Class helped to do some of the work on the underclassmen sections. In this way they learned the art of yearbook- ing for their own senior Echo. During the year the Echo staff lived in hopes of finishing sections and meeting deadlines. They worked many days after school and on many free days in Central Catholic ' s Press Room. Taking a breather from hard work on the ' 68 Echo are Kathy Imler and Linda Weinhold, co-edi- tors, and Sister Joel, yearbook adviser. Tom Jones, Linda Wait, Chris Bolyord, Anita Lobrjllo and Linda Robinson were key people on the Echo staff. A Time To Spend Self Serving as photographer for both the Sham- rock and the Echo was senior Mike Betts. He is shown here checking equipment in the Press Room. 112 Department Undergoes Changes The Shamrock went into a new look this year, with a larger format and a new manner of printing. Kothy Word assumed the duties of editor. She hod a staff of page editors and writers composed of seniors, ju- niors from journalism class, and some underclassmen who showed an interest in newspaper work. Sister Joel was the adviser to the paper, and introduced the new system whereby more students from all classes can participate in the activities of the journalism department. The Shamrock come out monthly. Kathy Ward, editor of the Shamrock, is always ready for action.

While the bi- weekly collections were the Mission Club ' s major undertaking, the organi- zation contributed to the White Fathers in Africa. Christmas cards, wrapping paper, and ribbon were made available to students to buy and sell to their fami- lies and neighbors. The items were sold with the idea of class competition, in which the Freshmen placed first. The unit also collected, through homerooms, food, clothing, and toys for the Christmas Bureau. These were distributed to many needy families in the city. The Christmas Bureau project was termed a big success, as enough was collected for all families involved. Pictured are the Mission Club Offi- cers. Left to right are,- Colleen Quinn, corresponding secretary; Sister Joseph Louise, moderator; Marie Stienbrecher, vice-president; Steve Rondot, treasurer; Marsha Shaffer, recording secretary, and Shielo Farrow, president.

Several members aid the slower children at Saint Patrick ' s School on Saturday mornings. Others work after school at the CCD Office helping in cl erical duties. Each member is asked to attend Mass one day other than Sunday and to pray the rosary in a group after school one night a week. The DM ' s hold meetings about once every two weeks. . . .

Chess Calls For Concentration Sister Andrew was moderator of the Chess Club in her first year at CC. Under her guidance the twenty-two members met on Wednesdays and Thursdays to challenge each others ' skill in the game of chess. Two tournaments were held, one in the fall and another this spring. The Service Club was moderated by Mr. George Mulligan who initiated a point system whereby the members get points for each hour they worfc. Mem- bers who had fifty points at the end of the year received green blazers. Some of the activities members gain- ed points for were ushering and sell- ing tickets at the Fall and Spring Plays.

Under the leader- ship of Tom Jones and the direction of Sister Mary Aileen, the SSC spon- sored the morning student prayers over the loud speaker for the second year. The student spiritual bouquets for Father Hammond and Sister Maureen Therese on their feast days were also backed by the organization.

Seniors Rose- anne Lahmeyer, Steve Vaughn, and Ken Vaughn, and sophomore Patricia Herber all made their debut on the stage in lead roles. Material witnesses Cecile Wirtner, Mike Pettit, Marilyn Craft, Jerry Gill, John Moore, Katy Kelley and Pat Getting, all seniors and junior Chris Motherwell, provided the clues to the murder. The district attorney Greg Straessle, senior and the defense attorney, junior Dave Bierbaum, gained the confidence of the jury with their questions and case summaries. Judge Lyndell Morgan, and the courtroom staff consisting of Martha Lapp, Greg Moyer, Sue Schulien, Lynn Sordelet, Mike Betts, Jeannie Berkshire, John Palmer and Stan Huntington, finish out the cast of the play. Night Of January 16th was a first for CCs drama department in that it was the first play ever pre- sented in which the audience par- ticipated. Dave Bierbaum pleads his case before Judge Lyndell Morgan. Others shown are Rosanne Lah- meyer, Mike Betts, Lynn Sordelet, Pot Herber, Sue Schulien, and Greg Straessle. RjW l ft MO nov.)o,ji ix 154 Tierney Directs ' Donnybrook ' Another touch of the Irish was brought to Central Catholic in the form of Donnybrook which was presented as the spring musical under the direction of Mr. Martin Tierney. The evenings of May 3, 4, and 5, found a little bit of Ireland and a lot of its charm in the de- lightful adaptation of Maurice Welsh ' s The Quiet Man. The story concerns the colleen Ellen Roe Danoher who falls in love with an American ex-fighter John Enright. How- ever, the courtship is complicated when Ellen ' s brother, Will Danaher, forbids her to see him. On the other hand though, is Mikeen Flynn, the town matchmaker who is bent on getting these two together. Mr. Martin Tierney, director of the Spring Musical, pauses behind stage during rehearsals.

Hoosier hysteria was at its peak when Cen- tral Catholic High School won its first sectional. With CC drawing EInnhurst for their first contest, many fans were worried, but need- lessly so. Before a crowd numbering over 8,000, the Irish downed the Trojans 70-58. The New Haven Bulldogs were the next foe for the Irish. Losing Tom Roehling in the third quarter with foul trouble gave New Haven their chance. At one point they led by 10, but with that rallying Irish spirit coming to life in the fourth quarter, CC defeated New Haven 74-65. In the championship game, CC took a big victory over the Bishop Dwenger Saints, 61-49. m To Cut Down The Nets A piece of the sectional net goes to CC ' s great coach, Leon Young- peter. Mike Bird battles for the ball at the right as Steve Krouse closes j i ' i Ifff -K Mike Bird and Don Smith go into the aid against New Haven, while below Mike Bird seems to be giving his blessing to the frantic ploying of his teammates. 163 Regional Victory Leads Norb McAfee bounds in front of Central ' s Charlie Reese in an offensive maneuver. It was a long way to the Sweet Six- teen, but CC ' s Fighting Irish turned the trick by beating the Lakeland Lakers for the Fort Wayne Regional Championship. The hardest gome of the regional tournament for the Irish was not the championship game, but the afternoon game, in which CC ' s neighbors, the Central Tigers, put up a hard struggle. Only in the final seconds of the contest was victory assured for the Central Catholic cagers. Pitted against Marion in the first gome of the semi-state, CC found the Giant defense hard to beat. While turning in a fine defensive show, the Irish bowed to their opponents, who went on to win the semi-state and a trip to Indianapolis to bid for the state championship. The game with Marion ended a trail of glory for the Irish, but everyone re- members the sweet taste of sectional and regional victory. They were great days for the Irish!

Diane and Art are pictured at the left. A Time For Uprooting Whai Has Been Planted old time we cannof keep. Time does not become sacred to us until we have lived it, until it has passed over us and taken with it a part of ourselves. —Burroughs And there was a time — a retreat, a sock hop, dis- sections, pep sessions, intramurols, bonfires, a home- coming, bunsen burners, a first issue, bus trips, a prom, a ploy, a musical, a winning streak, a class ring. Within this realm came people, for time is but re- corded relationships — lives and friendships. Things we work on together do indeed become a part of us, and in this spirit we, the staff would like to share our efforts. We would like to thank Sister Joel, our moderator, for her time and patience; all those involved in con- quering major sections or only bits and pieces,- and especially all the faculty, who were so kind when pic- ture schedules interrupted classes, plans and students. And so, sixty seconds and a minute was over. It was a time for being a part of the whole, for learn- ing from books and people. And now for a moment, it is a time for remembering. yC Ux iH- i-t.
