(that peanut butter and bologna sandwich topped with onions that your mother packed you for your lunch). COMPREHENSIVE SAMPLE: Once there was a BIG GUY who thought he was a real FOX. He CRACKED EVERYBODY UP be- cause he always got SHOT DOWN. He al- ways asked out girls that he thought were DECENT (but actually were a bit BIZARRE). He thought girls would be KEYED to go out with him, but each time, he got the same answer from them LATER ' S . Each week- end, he asked a girl WHERE THE PARTY WAS, he asked another girl if she wanted to LISTEN TO SOIvIE TUNES, and he told a different girl some CRUDE jokes. Most girls thought he was a real BUMMER. When he figured out that a girl didn ' t like him, he would ask her if he was right — the usual reply DUH! He thought Oh, SHE KILLS ME! He was waiting for the day that he could go on a date and say IT ' S BEEN REAL, but everyone knows that BIG GUYS get SHOT DOWN. — Oh well, THAT ' S LIFE IN THE BIG CITY!! 1: Joy Stokes and Beth Lehnen — Decent- the last bell. 2: Ina LaFon — doesn ' t she just kill you? 3: Bob Lueken — What a great looking fox? 4: Mark Boyle — Duh , how did he flunk homeroom? 5: Bob Fitzgerald — feels Greek Myths are a bummer. 6: Coach Hoff — keyed at getting his picture taken.

Every twenty-three-year-old building needs to be spruced up ev- ery now and then. CC was no ex- ception, as maintenance crews and other workers built walls in various places in order to better accomo- date students and faculty. For example, a wail was built in room 1 10, dividing in into two sepa- rate rooms. Fr. Dhondt planned to use the new classroom for students taking health and freshmen who were scheduled for one-semester study periods. A metal door was placed in the wall so the room could be used as double classrooms whenever it was necessary. A wall was built across the back of the girls ' locker room, providing space for the weight machines. An- other wall was built in the guidance department, allowing room for Mrs. Kremer, and providing space for a sickroom for students. The athletic department pur- chased new scoreboards for the gym. The scoreboards were a wel- come addition — the old ones hadn ' t been working properly for quite some time. Room 112 was converted into a small chapel. It was large enough to provide a place for groups of stu- dents to participate in mass, or just take time out to visit. There were other changes around CC. Several athletic teams wore new uniforms this year. It all started with the girls ' volleyball team. These new shirts contained a multi-colored striped pattern that appealed to many of the fans. Later in the year, the boy cheerleaders purchased shirts which contained the same striped pattern. At a home basket- ball game, many of the fans had to take a second look at the players — the members of the team were wearing shirts which matched the ones that the boy cheerleaders were wearing! There were many changes at CC this year. Most people agreed that the changes were an asset to the school, and benefited everyone — not just the students. 34 cliange ) ■ CCF , AN Central Catholic changes styles with new outfits for volleyball (Mary O ' Keefe), guy cheer- leaders (Larry Schmidlin), and basketball (Pat Haan).
