Digest IrUUTlL- C i Peer Ministry Debuts Peer Ministry introduced a new concept in counseling. CLHS was one of two schools chosen by the Indiana District to begin such a pro- gram. To get it started, Mr. Terry Breininger attended a two-week seminar in St. Louis. Peer counselors were chosen upon his return. I chose a broad spectrum of students, ones that I thought would be able to easily start relationships with other stu- dents, who were looked up to by their peers, and students I thought would benefit from the exper- ience, stated Breininger. The group of eleven counselors was made up of juniors and seniors. We had a week-long workshop during the summer where we learned how to ask the ' right ' ques- tions, how to listen, and how to get to the root of a problem, stated junior Natalie Dowden. We had a workshop where we learned how to ask the ' right ' questions, how to listen, and how to get to the root of the problem. Counselees were matched up with a peer counselor by Breininger and guidance counselor Carl Gall- meier. It was then up to the students when and how often they met. When my counselee was going through some rough times, we met once a week, said senior Phil Schult. Not only did their knowledge help them in counselor-counselee rela- tionships, it also helped them in everyday life. Senior Matt Piekarski said, I ' m pretty shy and it made it easier for me to open up with other people. Peer Counselors: FRONT ROW: K. Trygg, N. Dowden, L Burger, R. Dixie. J. Goeglein. SEC- OND ROW: S. Braun, P. Schult, Q. Dixie, M. Stebbe. C. Henkelmann. M. Piekarski. school scene 25

After picking up an REO Speedwagon concert ticket at Karma, junior Andrea Lupke reviews the songs on REO ' s latest album. E.T. Steals Hearts The biggest movie hit of 1982 was E.T. , which starred a fictional character from outerspace who was accidently left on Earth. Elliot, an earthling boy befriended E.T. and hid him in his closet. Another hit was An Officer and a Gentleman starring Richard Gere as Zach Mayo, a future pilot, and Debra Winger, as Paula Porifki, a factory worker. This movie was a touching story about two people who tried not to fall in love, but did. One of the more popular films of the season, Tootsie, starred Dustin Hoffman as Michael Dorsey and Dorothy Michaels. Michael Dorsey disguised himself as a woman and got an acting job on a soap opera. Other hit movies were Rocky III starring Sylvester Stalone, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Verdict starring Paul Newman. My favorite movie was ' Kiss Me Goodbye ' with Sally Fields because it was a different kind of story and it was really interesting, said junior Robin Milakovic. Cuddling a lovable E.T. doll, freshman Lisa Linnemeier displays one of the by-products of the hit movie. i M A S H Memories Preserved Starting the television season with high ratings was Square Pegs, a program about two high school freshmen trying to fit in with the high school social standards. Other popular shows among Ca- dets were Remmington Steel, Family Ties, It Takes Two, Sat- urday Night Live, with Eddie Mur- phy, Silver Spoons, Knight Rider and the old favorites, M A S H and Dallas. M A S H ended its television career after 1 1 years, with a two- hour special which was aired on February 28. But the memories lin- gered as reruns continued through- out the season, and will for years to come. Oblivious to everything around them, Mike Strassen, Ross Toenges, and Fred Schroeder hear only what ' s coming from their walk men. entertainment 27
