VJWWZ ? y??? J SthG .INgo .4 Chew . A Year That Taught Us. it Pays To Unite . ,rw Teamwork is a unity effort, difficult to achieve but truly re - warding. The strength that lies in a unified body has always been recognized by the leaders in all fields. As the leader he was, Paul Tepe saw this fact. At the beginning of the school year Paul, as school president, called for all Classes and divisions to drop petty jealousies and rivalries and to work as a unit, a family, to make Covington Catholic the school it should be. No doubt the movement Paul Started has not progressed as quickly as it might have had Paul lived but there has been a change at Covington Cath- olic. Strength In Unity Perhaps it isn't something that an out sider would even notice but members of the Covington Catholic family have experienced a quiet transformation. The rigid borders of classes and divisions have softened and people who formerly didn't associate With each other can now be seen talking and laughing together in the hall ways. If the Colonels continue to remember Paul Tepe's words this school can look forward to becoming a powerful unit whose presence will be Strongly felt in years to come. Dedication tun-- All of us could use further schooling in the art of living and therefore regard our future with a bit of hesitation. Here at Covington Catholic we have two fine examples to follow. Both Paul Tepe and Brother Ken Thompson lived full lives that bubbled over with action, daring, and zest. Neither lived in vain. Now they have both gone from us. Paul is dead and Brother Ken is a missionary in Africa. Lest we forget and find Ourselves blinded by the darkness, we would like to dedicate this book to the spirit these two Colonels eni- bodied. The most obvious duties of a high school's faculty, teaching students and managing the school's affairs, are well performed by Cov- ington Catholicts faculty and should not go unnoticed. N0 student, however, remembers a faculty member as a teacher or administrator. He remembers what none of the following photo- graphs can express: that peculiar smile tor frowm, the habits, the jokes, the expressions, in short, the personality of each man he has known during his four years at Covington Catholic. It is hoped that these pictures, can, at least, bring to mind recollections of the men who transformed a brick building from an educa- tion machine to a human experience. ACADEMICS l3 RT. REV. MSGR.

Message From The Principal Dear Colonels, The school year of l966-l967 will long be remembered at Covington Catholic. The death of Paul Tepe, President of the Student Senate, just as the school year began was somehow a call to greatness we could not resist. This was the year of firsts at CCH: the first time three seniors were named Merit Scholars, the first time COVngtOH Catholic had football. the first time our basketball team won the regional and went on to the State finals, CCH is only on the way to greatness. Ali phases of its operation must be strengthened Bro. Don McKee so that greatness can continue and grow. The senior play, the West Side Story, 'l was another Championship calling for future classes to equal if possible. Most of all Covingtou Catholic is blessed with a strengthening religion program. More students are learning apostolic work. More Colonels than ever are giving their lives to God. This is Catholic education at its finest. God love you, BRO, RICHARD STRATHERN, S.M.

Miss Betty Ewald Executive Secretary Wait a minute 'till I grab my habit; 28 Marble team practice Betty has been a good and faithful servant at Covington Catholic High School for six years now. It is our fervent wish that she may double or even triple that service. Betty not only serves as secretary; but also doubles as a nurse, a booster and a cheerleader. For that reason she is known to every senior and under- classman alike. A cheerful Woman Quest of the timey. Betty can be seen at all the rallies, basketball games, booster meetings and at about any other convocation of Covington Catholic students you can think of, 29 They couldn't have done it without me. Booming the boosters. A school year is filled with many things -- study, sports, organizations and, last but not least, activities. Perhaps the best thing about activities is the fact that they are open to any and every student. He need not have scholarly ability or athletic prowess to participate, only a. liking for fun and fellowship. Assemblies ranging from reptiles to N.A.S.A. are interesting as well as informative. Rallies are designed to encourage spirit and Coney Day provides an outlet for some of this exu- berance. The prom, Campbell lodge festival and the senior class play teach the students teamwork and its ensuing rewards. The school sponsors these activities because it knows that they foster an education that can- not be learned from any book or taught by any teacher. A man is not wholei' until he learns to live and work with the people around him. That, in a nutshell, is the purpose for the group of happenings which we call collectively activities. ACTIVITIES This year's prom, April Love, was certainly one to be remembered. At nine ohclock, April the fourteenth, on a seasonably warm night, the Juniors and Seniors filed into the Hofbrau Haus for four hours of dancing to Don Lackey and his orchestra, then later to Summit Hills, where things really got hopping to the tune of the New Lime. Without doubt, the Juniors had prepared an enjoyable evening for all. The Prom: 32 How do you think my Grandma died? Exciting, isn't it?. . . isn't 112?. . .Hey, wake up! Come on, I got a basketball out in the trunk. And I got her all by myself, too. 33 The Senior Class Play West Side Story For five nights in May Covington Catholicls gym was transformed into a ghetto Of New York for the setting of Fr. McDermott's production of WEST SIDE STORY. Originally scheduled for four performances, the out- standing quality of this play was soon recog- nized by the public and consequently was held over for two more showings to standing room audiences. Six months of grueling rehearsel under the direction of Ft. McDermott was rewarded by near professional singing, dancing and acting on the part of every member of the cast. If audience reaction is any measure of the quality of plays, WEST SIDE STORY can rank with the best. The entire crowd gasped with -. 44 horror when Chino shot Tony, and all felt the f 1 hopelessness 0f the two lovers of clashing nationalities . Tony 001m Schultey and Maria tLinda Williamsl embrace on a fire escape. Moreover, the plot of this play had a valuable moral that was presented graphically in this enactment of the futile relationship of these two star crossed lovers. A11 in all this action-packed yet poignant musical drama which everyone said could never be pre- sented by high school seniors added another entry to the list of Covington Catholic successes of 1967.

The Campbell Lodge Festival In the fall of every year Covington Catholic students put their heads and hands together to turn a drab gym into a colorful cascade of booths and games. With a lot of cardboard and yankee ingenuity, freshman, sophomores, juniors and seniors alike construct their own miniature amusement park. The main purpose of the festival, of course, is to raise funds for Campbell Lodge, but, in reality, it is only a small part of the benefits reaped. All work to- gether for a common goal and thereby share in a spirit of coop- eration and achievement that makes life meaningful. This, above all, is the hallmark of Catholic education and all that it stands for. Don't pull that one. It's holding up my pants. Five bucks on Madman in the third. 38 Pass the beer and quit shoving. 39 The Freakish Five Game Ten more points and I'll make the faculty alltstar team. Gee, that basket is awfully far away.

In an effort to shorten this gap of unfamiliarity, the Student: Senate sponsors, yearly, a senior-freshman confrontation which has traditionally become known as F reshman Initiation . Each year the Student Senate sponsors dances on one or two Friday nights a month, With the money from these dances going to the majority of the school's organizations. This years dance's featured some of the top bands in the area. In the beginning of the year Gary and the Hornets packed the gym and played to a cramped crowd of over 1000. Year after year these dances have provided Friday night Social life and an excellent place to sweat off a few extra pounds. lntra-Murals Not all boys have the God-given talents to play excellent basketball or become a member of a team, but the intramural program gives every boy a Chance to realize his potential and make the most of what he has been given. The intramurals are one of the activities with the largest participation throughout the school year. These organized sports develop the spirit of competition and fair play in the boys participating, as the homerooms battle each other to attain Victory and win the prize of the coveted Spirit Banner. STRIKE another one up for the Schoenling All- Stars. Watch this shot. Over the rafters and in the net. Assemblies A school year just wouldn't be a school year without the traditional assortment of various assemblies. Some 0.1? them bore familiar faces such as the Notre Dame Choral Group, the Chocolate assembly, and, of course, those wonderfully entertaining basketball rallies. Some were new, however, and we anxiously awaited them with mixed emotions of reverence, interest and sadness as Bro. Joe's Christmas skit, the G. M. assembly and our last good-bye to Bro. Ken slowly slipped before our attentive eyes. Iwish that OAGO white knight would hurry up, I'm getting tired of holding this nut up. Stand back kiddies or he'll melt your ice cream!

Chosen as the pre -season favorites in the region by most polls in the state, we were determined to make these preh dictions realities as we literally ran over our opponents in the first half of season play to realize an unbelievable reo- ord of 13n0. Besides the regular season schedule we found ourselves, for the first time, invited to the Ashland and Louisville Invitavn tional Tournament; two of the most important and prestege- ous high school basketball events in the statet Our season had its share of losses and headaches, as can be expected with even the best of teams, but certainly this was the best season yet, no one could ask for more. The District Tournament After the season has come officially to a close there then begins a series of tournament games narrowing down the competition between teams and giving each one the Chance to prove its claim for championship. The war of points commensed as the first battle to take shape Was the District Tournament. In this first clash of tournament competition, the men are separated from the boys as the weaker teams fali to the skill of the stronger. It is ironic that Covington Catholic, the traditional host of the tournament, has won the title only once in iIs history but this year's team was determined to overcome the long stand- ing jinxt In order to win the title, we were faced with Ludlow, Beech- wood, and Holmes and with remarkable results turned their fans away quite dismayed, as we prepared ouxselves for the next rung in the ladder of success.

The first game of the tournament found us on due same floor with the Highland's Bluebirds and, although we were confident and rated the top team all season, we knew from past experiences that we mustn't underestimate any oppo- nen't strength, The next twc games found us playing our old city rivals NewPort Catholic and Holmes whom we had just previously beaten to capture our District title.

These groups, or, rather the members of these groups, truly know the meaning of school spirit and get much more from their stay at Covington Catholic than the three R's . These people give their time and talent to their school and in return receive friendship, the satisfaction of doing something worthwhile, a well -rounded education, and whatever honor and acknowledgement connected with their ac- tivity. They have certainly found that the more one puts into life the more one gets out of. it and Covington Catholic has Shared and benefitted from the extra life that they have found.

However, after the sudden death of its leader, Paul Tepe, this year's Student Senate banded together to form an intricately working unit and to accomplish many things which would seem impossible under similar circumstances. The long list of the '66-'67 Student Senate accomplishments includes the organization of Support for a firstnever football team, a host of semi-formal dances, an overpowering display of support for an overpowere ing basketball team, a number of fun and interesting asw semblies, and finally an all-out chocolate drive that has to be termed an amazing success. Almough it made giant strides in enlarging the reputation of Covington Catholic this year, the. Student Senate seemed to remain aloof from the rest of the school. This is one of the reasons it was subjected to much undue criticism during the school year. But instead of just listing more of the Sen- ate's achievements of the past year tthe list could go on and org to quiet the skeptics, I would like to ask just a few ques- tions, and make a few commentsJ then leave it up to you to evaluate this year's Student Senate. The fixst big question is, How many organizations of the school would have been able to function as smoothly as they did this year without the Senate's financial backing? Secondly, What kind of Spirit would there have been withh out the SS rallies, bus trips, intramurals, and drives ? Would this year's dances have been successful without the Senate? Who would have made up the deficit of money for the State Tournament bus trips if the Senate had not existed? Paul Tape was never really appreciated until he was gone, and the same holds true for the Student Senate. Weigh the facts, and answer for yourselves.

Lyons, was the best this school had ever seen. To top it this year's boys would have to work and work hard. They did. For, behind the leader- ship of Steve Hellebusch and Dennis Vietli, the Contact blossomed into a bi-monthly, all- encompassing report on all phases of the Covington Cath- olic life. For the first time, the Contact published some mildly critical reports on such things as fac- ulty and Spirit banner drives. A150, while evicting much of the 01d rifI-raff which made up Contacts of former years, this year's editors retained and improved upon many of the traditional sections of the paper. A school year cannot be con sidered a good year unless all the things which add together to form the final impression of the year in a person's mind come out well. Thus, the very successful Contact which We enjoyed this year lent it- self Very well to the idea that in '67 It was a very good year . lST ROW, 1. to r.: C. Blazejewski, D. Uckotter, W. Zumbiel, J.

Our Cheerleaders in action A Covington Catholic Bunny? 77 Band As Covington Catholic High School has progressed out of the small school stature which it held until recent years it has deveIOped many of the traits and characteristics which clearly signify its growth into :1 large school Probably the greatest of these developments is the Band. By the hard work and determination of Brother Thomas Salerno, the Band has exceeded the expectations held for it in its infant stage three years ago and has matured into one of this school's greatest assets. Practically every member of Brotliei Tom' 5 musical aggregation had never played a musical instrument before entering Cov ington Catholic and almost all were taught their skills bv Brother Tom himself. Under these circumstances having a band which could play even one song would be a. remarkable fact indeed However our quick- learning musicians have display ad great diversification in the compositions which they have ramped through in their many appearances before the student bodv. We would like to state that in the future, 0111' Band will undoubtedly progress even further, and would also like to extend a hearty thanks to Brother Tom.

We have been hearing about the speech trophies won, the U. N. awards achieved, and the Debate Tournaments almost conquered. I think that it's about time to tell what all this means, what has been accomplished and what purpose all this time and energy serves. First of all, 3 513629011 team brings a certain amount of pres- tige to a school. Regional Debate Championships and indih vidual speech awards make a school look good academically. More important, hOWever, arc the benefits that can be gained by the participants. Debate provides a person with the opportunity to construct logical arguments, defend his posi- tion and refute another's. It gives the student valuable exh perience in research techniques that may prove quite imporp tant in school and later life. Speech teaches a person to express himself. It not only helps a student communicate to a group, but to express his ideas to an individual. Both of these events help a person attain confidence in himself and courage in his Convictions. Over the past few years, Covington Catholic has built up a pretty good reputation in Speech and Debate. We have not yet run away with a tournament, but we have won our share of trophies. Besides the advantages given her, members of Speech and Debate have a lot of fun and meet a lot of people. Ihope that next year a few students will see the advantages of Speech and Debate and get in on a good thing . Senior Speech and Debate trophy Winners, 1.. TO R. : Mark Goodwin, Tom Cook, Larry Funke.

So, Mark and John prepared and worked. When finally that ominous month of June arriv ed, the two editors started their crash-work program. To have to go to a place where they had just finished spending four years and work on a Yearbook every night must have been quite a task. But the pair persevered. The enjoyment you, the reader, derive from this Yearbook stands as a further attestment to the work put into it. And I am sure you are enjoying it. Was Wilson on the golf team? Co-editors, L.

STANDING: Faculty adviser Father John McDermott, Program moderator Dave Manning, In their first appearance the Covington Catholic It's Academic Team jumped off to a nervous start, while watching dumb- founded as the two opposing teams utilized seemingly easy questions to gamer large point totals. Thus, by the time the grab- bag question period came around, the Covington Catholic trio stood ninety points behind the leaders and in last place. However, they then struck. For, completely dominating the final round, they emerged the victors by one hundred points. In their second encounter the Team again stumbled off on a shaky start. Becoming startled by their position, they missed on some easy questions and further buried themselves behind the leaders. This time they were too far behind by the final round, and, though desperately trying, they Could not Catch up. Nevertheless, all was not woe. The Team was rewarded with a set of encyclopedias for the school and a full page in the Yearbook for themselves. Prom Committee iST ROW, 1. to 12:1. Gantenberg, P. Feighex'y, D. Herrmann, B.

Van dc Geer Cfreasurery 105 Underclass Gallery Are You sure it's buttered? 106 e. n C a e r m n My group had 33 Graduating classes of seniors are usually ded scribed by a long, tired, list of cliches that all lead to the idea that the future of the world depends upon them. Before Covington Catholic's one hundred seventy-Six graduates become dismayed by such frightful prospect, we would like to rem mind them that millions of other people are also trying to shape the future and if the se- niors can get together with them the job of future shaping will become fairly simple. Hopefully, four years at Covington Catholic has taught them the importance of unity and the Christian values necessary to attain it. If this lesson has been learned the future will hold 110 unsolvable problems.

This past year Covington Catholic has received the support, financially and otherwise, of many individuals and businessmen. They have always come through when asked to give the school a hand and their participation in the pa- tron drive for the Bluegrass was no exception. Despite a lack of solicitors, these people have responded generously and without their help Bluegrass i67 would be a lot less than whatever it is now. The cost involved in putting out: a yearbook is substantial but through the generosity of our financial backers we are able to produce a yearbook at less cost per copy to the students. Therefore, the entire school as well as this staff owes a lot to the Bluegrass' patrons. PATRONS Silver Star Patrons MARTY SCHULER 24s Dudley Rd. MR. GMRS. PAUL C. MENNE 106 Holaday Lane JEROME A.

Each spring the tree grew new leaves, often growing new bark over branches I had broken or words I had carved. Each fall at the end of another summer of tom knees and sunburns, the leaves that were green turned to brown, and vacation ended. Today I feel very much like this tree. I have spent a season of my life here at Covington Catholic. Now I have reached my first autumn. I must say farewell to what was once my way of life, to many who are my friends. It is time to change. Through all the days of my youth I swayed my leaves. . . in the sun Now I may wither into truth. IW. B. Yeatsl Life is very much full of seasons and cycles, ends and beginnings. Once we were freshmen, now we are freshmen again. Once we were strangers just entering these doors, all a bit fearful of what we would find. Now these doors are about to close behind us for the last time, and we are strangers to a new world. Yesterday is gone, and tomorrow has yet to feel the tap of our chisel. We must wait till we have aged a bit more, I guess, wait till the cement has had a chance to dry. Still I'd like to know the answers because I feel a bit green around the edges. I think it is true of all of us, but after all greeness is only the first sign of a new spring. Some of us either more prepared or more easily satisfied, may already see a good bit of what is to be. But most of us are a bit unsure, a bit unattached. It is not a comfortable feeling, but I'm sure that if we search a little with our head and a little with our heart, we will eventually find a spring of clean, cold water that we can drink from. The world is a big place. There is room for all kinds of people, all kinds of things. 1 have heard it said that it is also a very lonely, a very unhappy place--a machine world full of faceless people. But as of yet I have not met a faceless person. You can usually find what you are looking for so perhaps 1 have not looked hard enough or in the right direction. Or it may be that I have the wrong perspective, that I so not know how to look at people. --l'll work on it, for I'd like to see one. I hope we all work on finding faceless people, because if we do we will appre- ciate those who have faces much more. 1 hope too that we will all be happy in the future. After all, that is all that counts. And it does not really take that much to be happy, if only you appreciate what you have. So here we are, soldiers on the eve of battle, or if you like, strangers on the eve of a friendship. Some of us are very much prepared for battle, --fierce, proud, determined- ready to grasp destiny and shake it a bit. Others are going into the World with a spirit of searching and of wonder- ready to roam through the sunsets and the neon. Still others are very unsuited for the role of a foreigner, a stranger--they smile too much. The world needs all of us. It needs a backbone. It needs a soul. It needs a smile. We'll fit. 1 do not think that we have wasted the past, and I hope we will not waste the future. I have reason to believe we wont. GOOd-bye and thank-you, That's all I have to say. I'll be on my way. 70M Cook 1g 7 145 The Salutatory Address The Salutatory Address is a sad thing. It requires dusting off faded experiences and times gone by when we were younger and less mature. This speech in itself acknowledges the fact that time is speeding on and we are growing older. Four years which are filled with poignant times-- times of sadness, joy, fear and anxiety, preceeded this ceremony. Let us now turn back and gaze over our shoulder at those four spent years which mark the end of. an era--our era. As eighth graders we shyly sat in odd -shaped desks on an April morning and noticed the new and unsure faces that we would someday come to know so well. The taking of our entrance exam marked the turning of a key which would open the door to a new and unknown future. When Sep- tember drew near, we came to school under the guidance of an older brother or parent and watched in amazement the confusing process of buying and selling books. This, to me, was an unusual time. On a September morning we carefully Checked our schedules and soon we found ourselves seated in new rooms, surrounded by new students, and confronted by new teachers. These teachers formed a segment of the first male faculty we had ever encountered. In time, these dedicated men were to play an all-important role in the ultimate development of the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects which are so important in a teen eager's life. Although they de- manded a little more attention and a little better behavior than had the sisters, we soon learned that they were compatible both in and out of Class. As always, time sped on. In what seemed to be a short time, we had left the beginning of our past behind us. An air of. smugness hung over our close -knit division as one hundred and eighty new-found friends began to struggle for the coveted spirit banner. While inter-competition grew keener, we found ourselves surpassing the heralded upperclassmen in drives and other facets of a Colonel's life. Under avid guidance from enthusiastic teachers, we developed a pride in our accomplishments. Although we were learning and growing, we still were freshmen and had yet to taste the fun and excitement of semi-formal dances. This privilege waited around the corner in the second stage of our high school career. We had met the challenge of the freshman year. With a growmg air of security, we entered our sophomore year. Although the courses were harder, we soon found ourselves reaping the rewards of an ever -growi.ng list of friends. These friends we will never forget. Through classes and extracurricular activities, many friendships were founded; some flourished, some died, some were never known. We grew in our pride as a basketball team of undetermined talents rose to a regional powerhouse. A rookie debate team composed of the late Paul Tepe and Larry Funke made their mark by bringing home their second consecutive regional debate championship. Wrapped up in the exciting and variegated aspects of a high school career, we failed to notice that two years had passed and we were on our way to a new world of maturity and responsibility. While working, studying, and building our future, we overcame both the sinister and sheltered times when teenagers are confused; yet, we were never pessimistic. Obscure times are a part of being young. As outgoing sophomores, we began to note the future quickly taking its place as a never -to -be -relived past. Now, the Junior year was upon us and the burdens of leadership were increasingly evident. With the desire and spirit to meet that challenge, we easily capped four consecutive spirit banners. In the Campbell Lodge Festival, we found the surging power of unity as we joined together under the banner of the Junior jungle. Sports continued to bring many breathtaking moments and thrills long-to -be -remembered. The swimming, cross country, and golf teams were setting goals for future squads to challenge. In the Junior -Senior Prom, we hold an accomplishment which no one can take away. In a united effort, we remade the gym into a setting we will long remember. Following the elections for Student Senate officers, an optimistic class waited to take over the reigns of leadership. As the final phase of high school drew upon us, the hand of God dealt a horrible blow. Paul Tepe, our school president, was tragically killed in an automobile wreck. His death marked the loss of a friend and a spoke in our wheel of leadership. Without this spoke, our efforts were to be 146 strained. Already the sadness has lessened, and, for some, the memory of Paul is a thing of the past. This loss of a friend, Who would have been a Salutatorian, brought the first real touch of sorrow and loss to many of us. Yet, time went on. Noticing the growning pressures we had to grow in maturity. The thought of college perplexes the unsure and fear of the future presents a challenge that we had to face as men. Along with the approaching future, the Seniors had under- taken another great project. As a Senior Class Play we chose West Side Story and began to prepare for six months of practice. The basketball team was also hard at work. Under the tale ented hand of Mote l-Iils, they blazed a trail of triumph which is unparalleled in the history of C. C. H. Being the first team to bring home a regional trophy, they set their sights on the long awaited state tournament. Choked up with emotion, we watched helplessly as a last second has ket snatched the title from the finger tips of the best team in the state. In Louisville, our presence had been felt and we were proud to be Covington Catholic Colonels. Drawing the year to a close, the Seniors presented West Side Story . We again made our pres - ence felt as Father Mac skillfully produced the best play this area has ever known. An air of sadness and finality hung over the Seniors as the last performances marked another accomplish- ment they will fondly embrace. Now, graduation is upon us. We have met and left behind many wonderful and stimulating facets of a high school career. These moments are lost forever. Looking back on these four years, we Only hope they have not been abused. Around the corner lies a future in whatever manner we de- sire. With age comes maturity and an unending obligation to fashion our talents in the most ac- ceptable form. Leaning on past laurels can only spell our ultimate failure. Yes, our future holds no place for illusions. For us, intricate decisions must be made; deciw sions which will be looked upon either with pride or sorrow. Our memories, whether filled with dejection or jubilation, will never vanish with time. As we grasp our diplomas, let us realize the future we face which looms so pertinent to our goal as Christians. We owe our future to the teachers and parents who have struggled through these poignant times with us. In parting, I would like to extend a hand and a note of thanks to all those who have made these four years possible; and, above all, enjoyable. Last of all, good bye to a great group of guys, andul hope, friends. Thank you!
