I y -ry 'vxrocpn � (f - avvj tvJApvf )QQJ Yirb Pry? 3Ur 0 I aurtyOA w NOIWIO 2 D.C. spirit awakens . . . with a shiver of anticipation bursting into sudden activity. Our year is born. Old friends are sought; new ones are found. A senior hurries to his homeroom; a freshman stands lost in the crowd. Courses are changed; books are bargained for. All the while comes steady shouting, laughing, and doing. D.C. spirit is warming up. The beat is there. 3 And the beat goes on . . . Blending the new with the old as vibrations of growth and change pound out constant improvements. Our year is alive. First Friday folk masses and Synod involvement spark spiritual vitality. A junior displays his new ring; the last box is packed for Project Commitment. On goes the rhythm of clapping hands, stamping feet, thundering cheers- the Goodfellow victory is ours. 5 The spirit and the beat . . . contribute to making this one single year so important, so vital, so alive Lo D.C. people. This year is explosive — like the heated reaction of a chemistry experiment. This year is thought-provoking — like the complex proof of a math theorem. Every corner of every happening in our ‘68 history has a special memory to recall, a special effect to feel. This year was unique; It was THE year in our lives.

It Is The Prime Factor Of Success An average student spends 14,800 minutes a year in his life working academically; likewise, teachers every- where spend that amount of time presenting their sub- jects. But the knowledge gained through time devoted to work and study goes beyond that year. It gradually grows and develops, influenced by both personal experi- ences and more years containing those 14,800 minutes. It’s a vicious circle, and as each year in our life goes by we begin to realize the need we’ll place on those academic subjects. Maybe not just yet—not when there’s always that homework to do, those extra projects to make or the thought of today’s classes and then to- morrow’s. The knowledge we have gained will become a part of a continuing foundation within ourselves. We are constantly in pursuit of the ideals of academics— wisdom, truth, loyalty and honor. An investment in any of these in this year in our life always pays the best interest in years to come. 9 High Caliber Leadership Is The Primary Reason For Student Achievement TOP: An avid Falcon fan, Msgr. Wcier cheers the team on to victory. BOTTOM: Father Zerafa transforms Mass into an intimate experience. Throughout the entire 1967-68 school year, Divine Child students have been continually guided, taught, and disciplined by a capable and hard working staff. The administration this year had an abund- ance of the enthusiastic energy needed to keep one step ahead of the students. Monsignor Herbert Weier, the head of the whole ‘‘show” frequently visits the upperclassmen to an- swer questions and to help with problems. Despite a demanding schedule, he usually manages to en- liven an assembly with an amusing anecdote. Sister Gerald, gains the respect and admiration of the students and faculty with her zealous devotion and sympathetic understanding. Bearing the title of “Principal of the Year,” Sr. Gerald is satisfied only with the best for D.C. Father Cusmano, athletic director, has donated many long hours of assistance to the teams while Father Zerafa, our “quiet” priest, strives to give our Mass day an ever increasing personal effect. Both take part in the underclassmen religion classes. These few people serve the students of Divine Child High School well. It is their dedication which makes this year at Divine Child a high quality year. II Our well-known principal. Sister Mary Gerald, inspects the incoming mail. We Learn Only From Experience And The Experienced k atixonal As official door-opcncr, Sr. Charlotte unlocks the little secrets that lie in this magical mystery room for Mr. Hessler and Sr. Daniclettc. . . . Personal Or Private In most schools teachers are looked upon as individ- ual kings who look after their own domain with little regard for the affairs of others. However, in Di- vine Child, teachers do not teach merely because it is their job but because they enjoy making the school one of community accomplishment. A general air of involvement and social correspondence seems to make the difference between our faculty and the faculties of other schools. Where else do you see teachers at sports events, behaving like the rest of the enthusiastic onlookers—wild and spirited? How often can you find instructors who give so much of their time to promote the students’ talents with re- gards to plays, concerts, and publications? Nowhere will you find such a mutual respect than here. In this day and age where educators are look- ing for ways to answer the questions of today’s youth one should look to Divine Child, for it is here where teachers and students have found the answer—mutual involvement. Mr. Mctevier emphasizes his point at one of the faculty committee meetings. Pictured from left to right: Mr. Mctevier, Sr. Jolene, Miss Kelly, Sr. Tcrcnita, Mrs. Maslow- ski, Sr. Ann Joseph, Mr. Hebestreit and Mr. Tallieu. TOP: Managing student affairs is a big job for Sr. Gerald, Mr. Mikonczyk and Sr. Luiza. RIGHT: This year s new crew are (standing) Mr. Foye, Mr. Hajduk and Mr. LaForest, (seated) Miss Brzozowski, Sr. Josephenia, Miss Madigan and Miss Pacquet. It’s the teacher’s morning “sign-in-time” and Mr. Wickert gallantly offers his services assisting Sr. Margaret Mary in writing her name. Sr. Gabriella, who just can’t wait for her turn, looks on intently. 13 14 LEFT: Placing her bouquet in a vase before Mary’s statue, Karen Brooks starts the May crowning ceremony. TOP: Pam Kurosky and Maureen Higgins prepare for the school’s Synod. TOP: Through group projects, junior girls gain a deeper insight into religious principles. RIGHT: Sue Rivard, Donna Barancewicz, and Sally Stevens position the Bible lectern for scripture club. Group Participation Provides Spiritual Inter-communication From its formal birth on the first Tues- day of September to its climax on June 9th, religious spirit of Divine Child is a dominant factor in every student’s life. Re- ligious beliefs are something that each in- dividual must find within himself and de- velop as an integral part of his personality. To help the student in this search, various activities have been introduced. The Synod takes into consideration the problems of present day living. Retreat helps the student to understand his inner capabilities and how to use them to his fullest potential. May Crowning is the stu- dents’ way of giving themselves to Mary. The religious atmosphere is all about Di- vine Child. The faculty inspires it and stu- dents have it embedded in them. As high school prepares a student for future life, D.C. adds an extra touch of religious spirit. 16 “Resolved: Mike Jarema will sit next to me tomorrow,” says Eileen On- in Miss Pacquct’s Debate Class. TOP: Joe Mendenhall, Ron Parzuchowski, and Greg Grazioli collaborate in displaying a Greek god’s wrath. BOTTOM: Tim Caldaron tells “how” in his demon- stration speech. Mark Carpenter aids Kevin Burke in laying out the next edition. Meanwhile. John Bonfiglio types the copy. English — Journey Through The Center Of Self-Expression “The Scarlet Letter' stimulates a group discussion in English II. Walking past the different classes, one could become involved in the “Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” encounter Billy Budd, witness Macbeth’s murders, or tour Dante’s hell. Further investigation, how- ever, reveals the complete story of the D.C. cur- riculum. By wading through English rules, reports or term papers, students learn the techniques of style and the clear thinking involved in accurate expres- sion. These skills are further enhanced at each level through the literary arts. Mr. Mikonczyk’s freshmen patiently chisel at the “Great Books;’ Miss Madigan helps sophs become aware of the color interpretations in Hawthorne’s Scarlet Letter; “my pal. Bill” slips into many of Miss Paquet’s English III lectures; while Sr. Luiza’s seniors charm the assembly with an original of “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.” Real enthusiasts also find their way into the de- bate, speech, or journalism classes. English is thus packed with many new fields for more involvement, learning and future opportunities. 17 Research And Resourcefulness Are Fools For Students “My excuse better be a good one,” thinks Rob Jares upon entering I.P.S. class. Sr. Gabriella patiently ponders a perfect penalty for him. The future of the technological world lies in the hands of the young scientists, and part of the job of developing such people is performed right here at Divine Child. While walking down the hall- ways, one can sense these future scientists at work. The distinct scent of hard work fills the air as a chemistry student works out a complicated experi- ment. A warm feeling fills the insides of a biology student as he dissects his first frog, while a fresh- man sweats over the heat of his sludge test. The science courses at Divine Child are not mere book- memorizing courses. Research and resourcefulness are stressed by the instructor and applied by the stu- dent. To succeed in this world of competition, the best is always demanded and at D.C. the best is al- ways given. The sciences remain highly prominent in our school’s educational reputation. TOP: During advanced chemistry, Tom Voltattomi and Mike Williams attempt to create living protoplasm. BOT- TOM: fn biology, Kathy Hocn, Jane Montgomery, Maryann Fleming, and Nancy Ross separate chlorophyll pigments. TOP: Connie Maslyk and Karen Checonsky test taste perception in advanced biology. BOTTOM: Marcia Cach, Mary Mahoney, and Don Ephlin neutralize acids. Mathematics Broadens The Dimensions Of Minds And Future Dave Miller labors industriously on his assignment on General Math. Variables, vectors, and even imaginary numbers are only a few of the complexities that a student en- counters in Math. Learning to solve all types of problems and drawing reasonable conclusions are sometimes difficult and frustrating. But the stories of Poly Hedron or the math version of the “Twelve Days of Christmas ’ lighten the load considerably. With the help of Sr. Herman Joseph and Mrs. K. Maslowski, Math I students learn to interpret the jargon which is used in all studies of mathematics. Geometry is explained by Sister Herman Joseph whose twelve plastic geometric figures convey the ideas of planes, spheres, and cones. The advanced classes are characterized by Mr. Charles Hebestreit's “yes, no, and if-then” system of computing of theorems. The students of General Math are given the basics while our future design engineers are trained by Mr. William Hessler in the Drafting classes. By accepting the challenge of radicals, cosines and synthetic division, students probe greater di- mensions. 20 TOP: John DeLuca demonstrates the use of a truth table to Camille Przywara. BOTTOM: Chris Trill doubts the reasoning of Don Patchett’s answer. 21 With the help of Marcia Tamacki, Janice Koss, and Lynn Palmer, Rick Harris learns to enjoy fully his geometry. TOP: ‘Today, Divine Child; tomorrow, the world,” concludes Cathy Blazo to a World Histon’ audience. BELOW: Do you swear to tell the truth?” “Me, swear? Never,” cries Mark Carpenter. The Junior class reacts with mixed emotions to the Revolutionary- War outline presented by History teacher, Mr. Michael Metevier. After quickly scanning the Government test, Diana Dalton wishes she had stayed home. Interest-Rousers Infiltrate The Social Science Environment Involvement! Commitment! These are the cries one hears today. But in order to understand their meaning, one must penetrate into man’s culture. Book knowledge strengthened by the use of visual aids drives home the meaning of inter- action clearly and interestingly. Borrowed relics, rented films, and invited speakers serve this exact purpose in Miss Cynthia Brzozow'ski s World His- tory classes. Mr. Michael Metevier in his American History classes and Mr. Tony Versaci in his American Government classes follow suit with their specialities—home movies and third party literature. Economics class, conducted by Miss Brzozowski, ranges from the assembly line to stock reports and false advertising, and learns not only where their money goes, but also how to invest it. Despite the new upward trend in visual aids, the definitions, book analyses, term papers and reports still remain. Their combined force, however, promises a student body a rich experience. 23 TOP: Helen Miskinis and Chris Koss conclude that John Kendziorski would look debonair in native German apparel. LEFT: “Oh, to be in Paris,” muses Lynda Albertson. Students’ Battle Prize Is The Golden Tongue Someone speaks, someone listens. The strange sounds take on rhythm as students stumble through a Latin phrase, listen to a French tape, or converse in the new German dialogs. Sister Terenita coaxes an answer from an unsure French II student and Sister Charlotte introduces “Monsieur et Madame Thibaut a la plage” to her French I students. New books and a corresponding picture chart, employed by Miss Kathleen Kelly, have been added to the growing German department. The possibility of a trip to Germany presents the stu- dents with a desire for further study. Sister Charlotte guides her Latin I and II “scholars” through Medea and King Jupiter as they absorb the details of ancient culture. Communication is the objective and words are the tools to build a bridge to a lasting understanding of the foreign language. Denis White ponders the thought of admitting defeat or of bluffing his way through the rest of the German I dialog. Juniors Cindy Kerr and Jan Smith struggle to look intelligent in French III class while Sister Terenita interrogates Kathy Clarke. Paul Seascr quizzes fellow Latin I students on noun endings. 25 Commercial Class Clamor Boosts D.C. Business Boom TOP: Marilyn Chester runs off tomorrow’s announcements. RIGHT: Pat Gantz and Barb Stando participate in a shorthand speed test. 26 Divine Child students live for the future. The world of tomorrow is just within their grasp and the skills they acquire now will travel with them all through life. This is especially true of the com- mercial students, where typing, short-hand, office practice and business machines are used to de- velop fully their potential as young businessmen and women. The girl who pecks her way through a typing assignment may someday be a successful secre- tary, and the boy who adds a column of bookkeep- ing figures may be a well-paid accountant in fu- ture years. The span is limitless and Divine Child students don’t hesitate to reach for the sky. Under the guidance of Sr. Danielette, S. Luiza and Mr. George LaForest, the commercial students are now receiving the knowledge and skills that can have endless uses in the world of tomorrow. TOP: Cleaning typewriters is standard classwork for Linda Gross, Kathy Godvin and Betty Fary. LEFT: Jerry Guibord and Hick Krajniak discuss bookkeeping. Cultural Caches Unleash Hidden Student Talents D.C. students are given the opportunity of self-expression through music and art. They learn to build and develop their various talents for use in future years. Conducted by Sr. Jolene, the Glee Club has learned to understand and appreciate the beauty of music. Whether Christmas caroling or par- ticipating in the Detroit Choral Festival, they strive to convey a heartful message through song. The band headed by Mr. Tallieu enriches each concert with their performances. Mr. Foye stresses to his art students the importance of perception and the value of con- structive criticism. When creating a montage, an oil painting or a water color, they endeavor to portray an idea to symbolize not only beauty but also meaning in art. 29 TOP: Sue Wegienka reflects the hopes of the seniors with “Impossible Dream. LEFT: The band makes music come alive under the direction of Mr. Tallieu. TOP: “What? No Bosco?” asks Senior Pat Valant at a break in Foods’ Class. BELOW: Lucy Paparelli irons out some difficulties in Home Ec. Spoons, Needles Plus Brains Rule The Home The aroma of freshly baked cookies accompanied by the buzz of sewing machines in Home Ec is enough to arouse the interest of any passerby. Under the guidance of Sister Josephenia, the girls learn the important details that change a woman into an efficient homemaker and a charming hostess. Things that may be a struggle to remember now, such as where to put the water glass or from which side to serve, become habits performed with ease. Start- ing with next to nothing, the girls soon manage to produce cookies, cakes, breads, and eventually whole meals. Though the outcome is not always perfect, it is always edible, as any male “tester” or starved member of the yearbook staff will testify. The magic of the sewing machines and the guiding hands of beginner seamstresses can turn bolts of material into beautiful dresses, skirts, and coats. The festive spring program pays tribute to those ripped out seams, the carefully measured hem lines, and the tedious pattern layouts. For practicality, the Home Ec Lab ranks 1. 30 An Action-Filled Present Promises A Fit Future The shortened breath of joggers, the excite- ment of a slap shot or the quick rebound tells the story of a newly involved Divine Child Physical Educational Program. Under the guidance of Mr. Ralph Goldstein and Mrs. Corrine Mulvihill, physi- cal fitness is transformed from the tedious chore of calisthenics to the moving, competitive sports of basketball, hockey, volleyball, and soccer. The exhilaration of these sports co-ordinate the all im- portant sense of sportsmanship with the will to win. The boys are allowed to choose the sport they wish to participate in, while the feminine half of the class is allowed to employ such equipment as the tetherball and gym dollies. At the end of the class the rush is still on. It takes timing and organization in order to reach your next class before that ominous second bell rings. Among all the hustle and bustle, however, one principle remains: the future belongs to the fit. A trim figure is the reward for vigorous exercise during a game of ... ? A quick game of volleyball helps to sharpen reflexes and lends agility to those in gym class. 31 TOP: School nurse Mrs. Goleniak shows Susan Focht the proper way to complete physical forms. LEFT: Mr. Bowers, D.C.’s trouble- shooter, keeps the building right-side up and in running order. BOTTOM: Mrs. Stevens hands Miss Pacquet her hard-earned check. Thrifty Staff Injects Smoothness In School D.C. students live through their year and see a number of faces that become sources of help and understanding as the year prog- resses. The efficient secretarial staff of Mrs. Stevens, Miss Puckey, and Mrs. Esper always finds time to assist a student in a bind with a tardy slip or phone call. Also actively interested in the students’ well-being is the nurse Mrs. Goleniak, who has a remedy for everything from burns to headaches. The cafeteria ladies, members of Divine Child heroine troupe, are faced with the mammoth task of feeding five-hundred fam- ished students every day. Mrs. Donaldson, lead dietician, is assisted by Mrs. Opiela, Mrs. Prechowski, Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Reidy, and Mrs. Sockowicz. Our maintenance engineer, Mr. Bowers, is ever ready to help with such problems as a noisy heater or a broken window. He, to- gether with the rest of the staff, keeps D.C. ready for the students. 33 Take Time To Give It Is Too Short A Day To Be Selfish D.C.’s night life begins. The halls are empty, the regular work day is done, but the classrooms are still in use. A year in the life is extended into overtime territory. The door to the future is opened just a little bit wider this year; it reveals a host of fresh new activities. The student who really cares about making ’68 so special will be found in this land, giving as much of himself as he takes. The student who really cares will be found after the last bell for hours on end getting involved in everything from school spirit to school drama. The student who really cares will work till midnight making posters, practicing for a play, setting up science projects, or typing a million words per minute to meet a publica- tions deadline. This is what it takes to make a student who really cares. This is what it takes to make this year more than an academic schedule, more than a regular work day. It takes all this to make a year in the life. 35 TOP: Business staff member Sue Demmcr copies a subscriber’s name into the Clarion’s accounting book. BOTTOM: Past mistakes in copy writing provide copy editor Sue Konopka with lecture material for her staff. 36 Stale Crackers, Records Provide Atmosphere For Publication Room Staff Perfection—a goal, an objective, an aspiration. In the race for this prize the ’68 Clarion staff sac- rificed their sleep, grades, social life and health. At one time, editors Denise White and Sue Konopka were absent because of influenza and appendicitis, respectively, a week before the first deadline. In spite of these setbacks, the Clarion staff strove even harder for capturing the right moment at the right time. Planned pictures, effective layouts, and candid copy handled by our group of Quill and Scroll members gave this publication a touch of personal involvement with professional knowledge. Our school is a community distinct from schools anywhere. It was the duty of these dedicated stu- dents to capture the memories of this very special year. The spirit, the joys, and of course, the Ex- cedrin headaches are here to be remembered always. With the help of Sr. Terenita, as adviser, the Clarion staff has learned to awaken their latent talents and put them to the best possible use in each specialized field. These were the goals that the yearbook people set for themselves. How well we have succeeded is for you to decide. Frank Kotyk discovers that he has forgotten to put film in the camera. Won’t our editors be surprised! Stale popcorn, moldy jam, and scrap layouts form the bulk of staff nourish- ment when it comes to a tight squeeze for deadlines. 1968 YEARBOOK PEOPLE Editor-in-chief...........Denise White Copy Editor ..............

Herald Staff Merges With Journalism Classes For High Quality Newspaper It takes a lot to have a highly rated outstanding newspaper in a school. It takes DSPA trainshops and hours spent in journalism class. It includes afternoon and evening vigils where editors and staff work out layouts and proofread articles for best results. It takes patience when the pictures don’t come out or when stories are turned in late and news becomes stale. It takes understanding between staff members because not everyone has the same ideas about how things should be done. It takes generosity. People must give of both their time and themselves. It also takes talent—talent in articles that provide good coverage and entertainment, ar- ticles that are Rosette Award winners and honorable mentions. Above all there is a need for dedication which leads to achievement. Dedicated staff mem- bers are honored at Quill and Scroll ceremony. Divine Child’s Herald has all these qualities needed to make it an A-l newspaper. It has, likewise, people who have met the conflicts of time and deadlines but are that much richer for having experienced it. 1968 HERALD STAFF p. 1 Editor—Marcia Cach p. 2 Editor—Sue Rivard p. 3 Editor—Cynthia Kerr p. 4 Editor—Kevin Burke Reporters—Marianne Fuoco, Mark Carpenter, Jacqueline Govin, Constance Stupyra, Rita Jarema Photographers—John Bonfiglio, Frank Calzaretta Exchange Editor—Wally Noeske Advertising Manager—Janet Skalzalski 38 Advisor—Sr. M.

Language Is Passport On Wednesdays, eighth hour opens up ac- tivities for language clubs. Sr. Terenita’s French club get-togethers concern skits composed by tbe students or just listening to French folk songs. The German club members, under Miss Kel- ly’s direction, correspond with German pen pals and eat an abundance of German delica- cies as part of their annual field trip. Meanwhile, the Latin club members tour the ruins of Rome through Sr. Charlotte’s films and records; the main event is the Latin Conven- tion followed by the annual Latin Banquet. The feeling of growth in knowledge is found in D.C.’s expanding cultural atmosphere. TOP: Anne Fitzgerald, Rick Bondie, and Joan Gass enjoy the latest in Roman humor.

Future” Clubs Of Today Use Foresight To Prepare For Events Of Tomorrow The senior class motto, “What we are to be, we are now becoming,” is the basic theme of the future clubs. The future nurses’ club has been exceptionally active this year. Whether it be sponsoring speakers for their meetings or visiting Mercy’s school of nursing, the club members have shown a genuine interest in this field. Members have practiced the nursing theme: help- ing others through giving of themselves. Prospective teachers become acquainted with their selected vocation by obtaining first-hand experience through student teaching in the grade school. Members also learn the basics of teaching through guest speakers. Future secretaries are partially exposed to the busi- ness world by becoming personal secretaries to each of the teachers. The club also has the duty of helping out with the clerical work in the office. The students active in these clubs have learned to build a future by becoming involved with the present. RIGHT: Future teachers Hal Hooks, Karen Checonsky, and Marianne Fleming experiment the benefits of visual aids. BOTTOM: Marilyn Obad, JoAnn Sike and Candy Prechowski, DC’s future secretaries, do overtime in school but don’t get the pay. 43 Seniors Fred Stann and Pat Valant hand electronics pointers to under- classmen Roger Parczyk, Ron Pokrywka, and Charles Lucas. TOP: Pat Flynn demonstrates a holograph to Gerry Gut- kowski and Bill Becker. RIGHT: Gerry Gainor's ham radio equipment provides food for thought for electronic- minded Boh Denner. Putting Iheory Into Practice Makes Knowledge Our Own Mike Perino shows Marcia Tamacki and Lynn Palmer a magical slide rule. Science can be a completely unique experience for anyone. It’s a continuous learning-through-doing process that is worthwhile and a lot of fun for those who share the interest. With these people in mind, D.C. has organized clubs that give them a chance to exchange ideas, plans, and projects. The ham radio club shows what amateur radio is and how members can obtain their own license after an elementary theory and morse code test. In the science of mathematics is the slide rule club which acquires learning by self-teaching the fundamental slide rule operations. The electronics club has only a few members, but it stimulates an interest in superheterodine reception rather than simple components. Science club activities range widely from holo- graph demonstrations to experiments with blood protein to sponsoring the annual Science Fair. The fields of science are unlimited, especially at this school and in this special year. 44 45 TOP: Rosemary Wojciechowski and June Siwula make a clown out of Sue Kennedy. LEFT: “Reach out and I’ll be there,” Janclle Cousino reassures John Boruta. That Extra Finesse Is Acquired Through Study Of Fine Arts Divine Child ’68 welcomed vibrant ideas that resulted in the formation of new clubs. Drama club, originated by Miss Paquet, gives those interested in acting a chance to prove and develop their talents—mostly in preparing for the dramatic events of the year, the senior and school plays. Twangs of music to make life more pleasant come from the folk and guitar club. Members teach moderator Sr. Jolene as well as each other how to play the guitar; they also select and prepare songs for first Friday folk Masses. Aspiring and not so aspiring left-footers learn the basic steps and variations of both ballroom and modern dancing in the new dance club. Members make full use of modera- tor Janelle Cousino’s eleven years dancing ex- perience. These fresh, new fine arts clubs have added more than a touch of excitement to life; they have deepened the depth in student talents. Craig Novak and Maureen Sheridan tunc up during folk and guitar club. “You wouldn’t believe what make-up does for you, Frank.” testifies Eric Pfeifer. Onlooker Rick Krajniak doesn’t say either way but docs hold his own personal feelings on the matter. 47 TOP: Staring hungrily into a bowl of cold water are culinary' catastrophes Hal Hooks, Mark Carpenter, and Dale Babij. BOTTOM: Miss Brzozowski models Joann Koytk in posture techniques. Stamps and coins constitute a colorful intriguing hobby, not to mention, of course, the monetary benefits reaped when a rare stamp or coin is discovered. Sexes Divide For Clubs There comes a time in every coed high school when the boys go one way and the girls the other. In D.C., the breakup is on Wednesday for certain club meetings which are designated as “all boy” and “all girl”. Girls head for the Junior Miss Club. Here they are able to acquire poise and self-confidence with the help of guest speakers and open discussions. It’s a self-improvement club and the girls are able to develop any charm they may have. Boys in the Chef’s Club are whipping up some- thing special just like grandma used to make. Whether it be fluffy and light and melt in your mouth or hard and chewy and melts your mouth, Sr. Josephenia remains a patient moderator. The boys are taught kitchen habits and will do about anything except the dishes. New to the school is the Stamp and Coin Club. Because of it, the boys now look forward to mail and check the dates on any coins (which causes quite a delay in the lunch line). The club gives the boys the opportunity to swap and build tbeir collections. The separated guy-from-gal clubs are a great idea. And no matter which one you could possibly belong to, it’s almost certain it will be “well worth your while” anytime. Kathy Weakley submits to Winnie Gohl’s hair dressing maneuvers hoping that the other members will come to her rescue before it’s too late. Bowling, Pep, Golf, And Chess Clubs Demand Skillful Strategy Good Sportsmanship Being a successful cog of Divine Child’s fast- moving gears requires giving a little more. No. 1 in spirit are Mr. Wickert and his pep club; they have provided spirit hats, wild cheers, and way-out entertainment at pre-game rallies. Mr. Hajduk’s bowling club has taken West- land Lanes by storm, trading in their Sunday afternoons for sore muscles and high scores. Mr. Goldstein and the golf team have invaded and conquered the Warren Valley Club to set a new tradition in sports. In Mr. Hebestreit’s chess club, energy is ex- pended mentally for game strategy. Long hours and giving a little more has resulted in getting just a little more. Chris Surma, Karen Kurosky, Chris Trill, John Boruta, Mike Carrier, and Joe Mendenhall—pep club members—map out plans for post-season tournaments. TOP: Mr. Goldstein finds his golf team—Sam Test, Bob Stevens, Ed Muir, and Robin Prais ready for action.

It Is The Secret Of Perpetual Youth With the first crack of shoulder pads the fever starts and ages with the year. Yesterday is oblivion as far as the students are concerned. The costly fumble, the blocked shot, the wild throw is forgotten for an almost victory is still a defeat. But highlights are what makes a year memorable. The breakaway runs, the baskets at the buzzer and the breaking of tapes are what will be remembered with pride by both the onlooker and the participant. However, to the participant the year means more than highlights. It brings to mind the pains of practice he went through to make the year something to be proud of. If nothing else, the year teaches us how to take both victory and defeat in stride and how to lick our wounds and perfect our mistakes. These are the qualities which sports must instill in the individual and the high- lights in the year of the participant, the year of the fan, the year of the Falcon. 53 High-Spirited Cheerleaders Extend D.C. Victory Beat The beat of a drum, a trembling heart, chilled bones, dampened hair, a wrinkled skirt, joyous tears. All these and more play a part in the happy, hectic life of our cheer- leaders. Present at every game, they scream their hearts out for our teams, encompassing loyal supporters with their ex- citement, energy and enthusiasm. But what does it really take to lead the double life of a cheerleader and student? The gay facade we see at every game is only a cover for the many long and tedious hours behind the precision dis- played during every cheer. Beneath the guise of effortless agility are many sore bones and strained muscles. Here are the girls who were confident at the league games, rapturous at the Soupbowl, and ecstatic after the Goodfellow Game. Here are the girls who take to heart each win and loss, making spirit everyone’s business. Yes, here are DC’s cheerleaders—ready to throw the school into a frenzy for the promotion of a more lively student body. Elaine Bondic and Marcia Cach take a well-earned breather from their drumming during a lull in the cheering. Throughout the year they provided a big beat for Divine Child supporters.

LEFT: All-State halfback Ed Puishes leaves Shrine players grabbing at air as he struggles to break one last tackle and gain extra yardage. “We’re Number One” began as a cheer and ended as a fever raging through the minds and hearts of stu- dents and players alike—a fever which died only after the Falcons ran out of opponents to challenge them. Divine Child’s success was one which raised the eye- brows of many a football expert because week after week the Falcons heat teams bigger and stronger than they with their speed and alertness. These two qualities were the main assets in the Falcon defense plan which Coach Tony Versaci titled the “swarm ’em” defense. Un- der this plan the Falcons were able to wear down their opponents by the fourth quarter which is evidenced by their undefeated second half record. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the Shrine game. After two quarters of defensive struggle, an intercepted pass by John Kendziorski broke the hacks of the Knights and started the Falcon scoring machine. This ’67 squad, considered the best in D.C. history, has set a high water mark for all future teams. The Falcons’ defensive line closes in on the Bishop Gallagher quarterback as he strives to complete a pass over the rushing linemen. BOTTOM ROW: M. Morrisey. E. Puishes, T. Hoen, G. Clifford, R.

Goodfellow Win Proves Falcons Are Number 1 As the Divine Child Squad took the rain-soaked field at U. of L. stadium, they realized that they represented more than their league and school. This was the climax of a decade of football at the school. I he falcon defense rose to the occasion by contin- ally stopping Brother Rice’s drives while the Falcon offense scored twice in the last period wrapping up the game 21-6. The City Championship game with Denby, ac- cording to the sportswriters, was a re-creation of the battle of David and Goliath and for good reason —the Falcons were outweighed on the line by an average of twenty pounds per man. However, with a D.C. win, the Catholic squads would get the edge in the Goodfellow series for the first time in 24 years. Although Denby scored early, the Falcon defense held them at bay for the rest of the game, inter- cepting six passes in the process. Halfback Ed Puish- es and quarterback Gary Danielson posted two touchdowns against the previously unscored upon Tar defense. With the final gun, the unbelieving fans gazed at the 14-7 score. David’s honor was upheld. After all, the Lord was on his side. Coach Vcrsaci optimistically sends Bob Moug into the game with a key play against Brother Rice. Results: Touchdown and the Catholic Championship! 58 Hal Hooks adds the last point against Denby. 1967 FOOTBALL RESULTS Divine Child Oppon 20 Shrine .... 0 40, .... 6 32. ....12 14 St. Ambrose .. . ...25 25, Benedictine . . . .... 0 26 Bishop Gallaghi er .. 7 28 .... 0 21 Brother Rice . . .... 6 14 Denby • Catholic Championship « City Championship Cary Danielson dives into the endzonc clinching the City Championship. 59 Coach Newingham points out the strengths and weaknesses of the Falcon attack and compares them with those of their rivals in hopes of stronger second half showing against Bishop Gallagher. J.V. Gridders Extend The Fal con Domination Of Catholic Opponents The 1967 Reserve Football team continued to en- force Divine Child’s tradition of a football power. Under the excellent coaching of Mr. Jack Newing- ham, the Falcon J.V. fused both talent and resolu- tion to come up with a first place finish for their en- deavors. The only detriment to the polished record came early in the year when a technicality in league rules left the J.V.’s with most of their squad ineligible to face Shrine in the season opener, thus forcing a forfeit. However, this early setback failed to fizzle the Falcon championship express as they continued to stack up heaps of victories, taking the league crown. The entire season’s output could be summarized by noting vital statistics which showed the offense accumulating 111 points while the defense allowed a meager 12 throughout the year. Honest to goodness hard work and sweat were needed for such success. But it was the singular ef- fort of these young ballplayers that helped shape this year’s football picture into a shiny, bright frame. Such unified spirit will undoubtedly serve to keep all future seasons great ones to look forward to. 60 FRONT ROW: M. Perino. R. Harris, D. Nickerson, J. Wotring, G. Marano, D. Doherty, K. Glenn.

Under the direction of their new head coach, Mr. Jerry Morrisey, the Falcons humbled their opponents to lead the league with an 11-1 record. The lone defeat came at the hands of Servite which ended a three year winning streak at twenty- two. During the season injuries and the call-up of guard Mike Kieltyka and forward Robin Prais to the Varsity ranks left the Reserves with a void they filled with seemingly little difficulty. Continued improvement by these young men will undoubtedly add a bright hue to future years. TOP: Jeff Wotring outstretches a Rustic opponent for the tip.

Falcon fans felt sure that the 1968 squad would improve on their second place finish of the year before. But fate worked against the Falcons, for the extension of the football season left our cagers with little more than a week to prepare for their first game. As a result of this lack of practice, the Falcons played sloppy ball and dropped two out of their first three games, but the team came into their own in the final weeks winning their last two games to even their record at 6-6. Following an inspiring speech on team pride by coach Ralph Goldstein during an exhibition game, the Falcons worked even harder to defend their district title. The result was the trouncing of Benedictine and St. Al- phonsus for their third straight title. During a vital time out. Coach Ralph Goldstein review team strategy. J.V. Coach J.

Following on the heels of last year’s success, the Fal- cons have been invited to compete in the Spartan relays, the Dundee relays, the Mansfield relays, the Dearborn City Meet, the Catholic League Meet, and the Regionals Meet. Returning for his fourth year at the helm will be Coach William Montgomery who feels that the team’s greatest challenge in league competition will come from Bishop Gallagher. However, sparked by All-City Mark Carpenter, Rob Sanders, and Mike Morrissey and a strong 880 and mile relay team, the Falcons look to 1968 with confidence and high hopes. TOP: Eddie Puishes finds little competition as he begins his leg of the mile relay.

Haste Doesn't Make Waste In View Of The Falcon Race — Mike Morrissey exerts himself for that extra energy which leaves his opposition on the ground in an exciting finish to the 440. Scenes like this were not uncommon during the thrilling season. 68 D.C. Runners Beat Time The unforgettable harriers of D.C. will try to do it again. In the past two years of competition, the Falcons have acquired a magnificent array of ten beautiful, hard-earned trophies. In this same time span, the team has twice captured the long sought Catholic League Championship. Now, the track men enter the ’68 season. This year our team will rely on experience. On the roster there will be over twenty returning veterans. These returning juniors and seniors know the score. It has taken many long hours of tiresome practice to produce our team, the great league champions. The work is tough but the team realizes the only way to rack up victories is by a concerted 100% effort by all. To help in the goal are numerous freshmen and sophomores, our hopes for the con- tinuation of tradition. And tradition it will become. The track team will once again strive for the needed victories, the dazzling trophies, the coveted AA League Champion- ship, and the knowledge that they have done their best in contributing to Divine Child’s “Year of the Falcons.” By leaps and bounds, hurdler Hal Hooks breaks away from his Gallagher opponents.

Last year’s team promised a lot, but for some reason the squad did not seem to jell fast enough and after a first place finish became impossible, the team dragged through the rest of the year with let-down feelings. Perhaps the main reason for the disap- pointing Falcon performance was the new strike rule which gave the team a rugged time of ad- justment. However, Coach Don Silvi feels confi- dent that the players will come back, and after reviewing the talent of the returning lettermen it is difficult not to share his enthusiasm. Among these returnees are power hitters Dennis Urban, Jerry Guibord, Ed Puishes, Mike Perino, Jim Cogley and Bill Bashara while Mike Kieltyka and Dennis Nick- erson hold down the pitching staff. It is reasonable to expect the Falcons to he more successful in the future. Not only will they be bringing their talents w ith them, but also memories of a season they would like to forget. When these factors are added up, they spell out the continuation of great sports ac- tivities with baseball contributing a large chunk to the Falcon tradition, the Falcon year.

Four years later on a Sunday afternoon, a capped and gowned senior pauses on the front walk to turn and glance back. Four years go by quickly ... too quickly. Nineteen sixty-eight is one of those years, exploding with the sound of life rushing by the underclassmen. Time hides in the quick pace of day to day life at school—banging lockers every morning, rushing to beat the second bell, finishing that last algebra problem during lunch hour, evading those pink demerit slips. The underclassmen s world is one of excitement and expectancy, as urgent as the rush in the halls, as humorous as a group of freshman girls showing off their new uniforms. This is the year of the underclassmen. Never before has this school seen so much, heard such a beat, raced through such a whirlpool of living a year in a life. 75 Juniors Achieve Status And Prestige As They Begin To 76 TOP: Judy Opiela finds that college preparations aren’t only for seniors.

Take The First Giant Step The light from the candle flickers for a moment and burns brightly as a junior steps up to take his place among the seniors at the N.H.S. induction. He has reached a goal. For the student working to attain his goal, there is achievement in academics—the acomplishment felt by a tired junior, as he relaxes after the PS AT test. But his moment of relaxation is a brief one as he continues his search. It is found in the swish of a broom and the banging of chairs being set up for the junior activity. Achievement is found in the spirit of working toward one goal. It is found in helping another, taking the time to solve a problem—juniors working on Project Vietnam. The junior class has the spirit and their achievement will follow. The light will spark, flicker, and burst into a bright flame. Jim McCosky, gaining a substantial lead over his opponent, energetically attacks the high hurdles and streaks on to victory. (B-l) FRONT ROW: J. Wilson, R. Salinas, G. Steffes, D. Briody, J.

Boundless Determination Setting the compass in motion, the sophomore’s steady hand forms a design—he constructs. The building of the future will have a strong foundation of sincere faith. Framed by the Mass, reinforced with the basics of his religion, and ham- mered with guidance, his structure begins to take shape. With physical and mental effort the structure rises only as high as his ambition grows. One more hour in gym or one more hour in studies brings the D.C. sophomore one more step closer to his goal. Self-expression, determination, and communi- cation with other people from all walks of life en- hance this fundamental mould with the highlights of social life. Building a promising future involves faith, en- ergy, and a willingness to learn—and for the sopho- more, Divine Child High provides the tools, the guidance, and the important touch of personal guid- ance.

There is a change—a discovery. For the freshman conducting this experiment in I.P.S., what has taken place is only a chemical change. But inside him there takes place a mental change—the discovery of a new and unique world. He finds it in English with Shakespeare, in math with Euclid, and in religion with Christ. He un- covers for himself an opportunity to broaden his view of the world through extra-curricular activi- ties. But then he realizes that a well-rounded person isn’t only a student in a classroom. A freshman also takes his place as someone shouting at a pep rally, as someone else hanging decorations for a dance, or as a painted Indian on Freshman Day. The future is more than promising for the fresh- man who constantly looks for these new discoveries. 89 Freshmen Reap Benefits TOP: Pat Toth shows Jennifer Seymour how to bugaloo with her broom.

Within it there is a student grasping a new truth, probing a new problem. The light shines through and silence is broken. Once again the student is galvanized into ac- tion by the rushing, pounding demands of this year in his life. This action is not only directed toward studies. The demands are for complete, total involvement. This year is crowded with more than French verbs and history dates scat- tered across the pages of books. It includes football games, dances and trips to the Old Folk’s Home. Any indifference is shattered by the slamming of a locker, a greeting called across the cafeteria, a victory cheer at a pep rally. These sounds are the sounds of life—students making a world for themselves out of an inner restlessness to live each moment fully in this year—a year in their life. 95 June Siwula sketches a picture of the white rabbit on a poster advertising the Student Council's Homecoming dance—“Through the Looking Glass.” Council Works Through Newsletters And Debate Communication is a tricky thing. And communi- cation between teachers and students can be the trickiest of all. Although the Council got off to a slow start and met up with various obstacles, it was soon functioning as a bridge across the vast gap of understanding. By important planning and good leadership, two programs were instituted—- Project Vietnam and the Exchange Program. Other objectives and petitions were realized too, as in the famous “knee socks vs. nylons” debates. Through the newsletter, suggestion box, and student repre- sentatives, student voice was emphasized a little mpre and paved the way to future stability for the Council. Guiding the Council in its decisions was the work of the officers: President Dennis Urban, Vice-presi- dent Pat Drab, Secretary Maureen Sheridan, and Treasurer Robert Borkowski. 96 TOP: Sr. Gerald and Dennis Urban, Student Council president, discuss matters concerning school affairs.

Pinochle Professionals “I realize your sister is nice, but should she be the Student of the Month?” “Pat, you want to be Peter Popovef in the skit, don’t you?” “Imagine that! Three Santa Claus’s in the N.H.S.!” These are some of the comments a visitor to a National Honor Society meeting may hear. There, trips to the Old Folk’s Home are planned, Students of the Month are nominated, and programs, such as Eighth Grade Orientation, are organized. The National Honor Society is an ex- clusive organization. The members are elected on a basis of scholarship, leader- ship, character, and service. Most of the stu- dents in this society are so busy, it’s a wonder they find time for N.H.S. Sr. Gabriella’s guidance, Mike Prais’s leadership, and the enthusiasm of its mem- bers made this a good year for the N.H.S.

Long Hours Result In Long-Range Fulfillment “Sister, I’ve been accepted at State!” An outcry like that, coming from an ecstatic senior, draws a sigh of satisfaction from the industrious guidance staff, Sr. Margaret Mary and Mr. George La For- est. Hurrying from the conference room to 113 and back again, these two packed more hours in a day than the average teacher. At the beginning of the year, over 100 Seniors converged upon them and insisted on first-rate service for their future plans. Eager, confused un- derclassmen also sought the duo for direction in their personality development, subject changes and disciplinary problems. Sr. Margaret Mary and Mr. La Forest jumped right into preparations for College Board exams, scholarship tests, maturity tests, applications, recom- mendations, films and heaven knows how many tons of correspondence. The writer’s cramp and sagging eyelids are quickly forgotten, though, by both students and counselors when worries are re- solved and the future is secured. 100 TOP: Singers for folk Masses arc Jeff Wotring, Mr. Metevier, and Gene Morano.

Spirit Continues, Thanks To Student Commitment Most students realize that a well-rounded individual is not only involved academically, but socially as well. He must work longer and give of his time in areas other than his regular classes. Service involves dedication backed up with spirit. D.C. students realize this and are totally and whole- heartedly involved. Service is something big that is found in small places: behind a singer at a Folk Mass; with the glee club practicing for the Christmas festival; behind the decorator at a soc hop; in the publications room at deadline time. All of these students and many more find service indispensable in carrying on the tradition of Divine Child spirit—a winning ribbon, a scholarship—and they make the school a better place in which to learn how to become a complete individual. Homecoming Festivities Brighten Rainy Days A certain excitement tremored through the stu- dent body. Float meetings, decorations for the gym and pep rallies were all prepared for the Homecom- ing weekend. Dreams became realities for girls after dates were finally acquired and the couples strolled “through the looking glass” into a transformed gym. The ac- tivities began officially when court members Pat Drab, Karen Checonsky, Linda Rakocy, Maureen McGoorty, Mary Howell, Marilyn Obad, Tracey Yanick, Julie Ivinskas, Elaine Bondie, Candy Pre- chowski, Maureen Sheridan and Eileen Orr were presented at the dance and Queen Jere Ann received her crown. Sunday morning dawned dark, damp and drizzly but those who braved the elements were still able to witness a rousing victory over Benedictine. The rain halted momentarily for half time festivities when the juniors’ “Leave ’Em Defenseless” theme took first place in the competition of soggy floats. Seniors Janelle Cousino and Douglas Brown swing to the rhythmic music of the Shy Guys. It was a great night to be dancing in Alice's Wonderland.

Who’s Gonna Win Today If You Want To Know Watch Those Seniors . . The sadistic, old seniors jumped onto the war wagon again on Freshman Day, delighting in mil- lions of tortures for the unprepared freshies. Early morning silence was blasted into a supersonic vol- ume of screeching, laughing, and running as the fate of the freshies was set. No amount of “I’m not a freshman” or “You can’t do this to me!” could change the minds of the eager seniors. Mad escape attempts were halted almost immediately and the victims resigned to loving the mighty seniors. The seniors first saw to it that their slaves were properly attired. Hairdos looked and smelled like chemistry experiments while complexions turned lipsticky red. Traditional uniform garb was replaced by fashionable rags of all sizes, shapes and colors. After entertaining the student body with the variety- packed “Johnny Carson Show,” they dutifully marched to the cafeteria and succumbed to shaving cream make-up and invigorating calisthenics. Much to the dismay of the happy seniors, the freshmen were mercifully allowed to crawl home early. In the space of those memorable hours, though, the seniors had the time of their lives and the freshmen were soundly initiated as students of D .C. High. “I won’t propose to any senior girl—I won’t, I won’t, I won’t!” protests Phil De Paulis. Seniors John Kendziorski, Tom Straushaugh, Tim Hoen, and Ron Parzuchowski take time out from their lunch hour to persuade him otherwise. Come Receive Your Just Reward . . Achievement is the goal of most students at Divine Child, but there are some who strive a little harder to reach that goal. Honors for the “special ones” come about in different ways. There’s a chance for every academic, social, and athletic field to be represented, and at D.C. almost every one is. Besides the above-average scholarship needed to attain any type of honor, a will- ingness to sacrifice time and other activi- ties was found to be a factor in the suc- cess story. Not to be forgotten while lauding honor recipients, is the mass of students who hit D.C. with an explosion of spirit. Individual honors can be rightly shared by all.

This senior play, pre- sented in December rather than May, was not the usual musical, but a moral blender about the problems of men. Mr. Antrobus guided the Antrobuses and their ‘maid Sabina through the major catastrophes befalling man- kind. Miss Paquet directed this Thornton Wilder classic. She and the cast gave up many an evening to gruelling rehearsals while Mr. Foye’s stage crew begged for, borrowed, and built the necessary props and scenery. Every corner of the play production held some excitement whether it was constructing the rickety roller chair or strolling into the wrong dressing room. Tension mounted high with the outbreak of a flu epidemic just days before the debut, but everyone lived through it to see a ringing suc- cess.

Prom Night W onderland Puts Couples On Cloud 9 Pat Valant and Carol Wojtowicz (bottm) comment on the entertainment furnished by Mike Quatro’s band (top). “April Love,” the perfect theme for a perfect evening, set the romantic mood for prom night ‘67’. During the day excitement mounted and thoughts about hair appointments and tux- edoes all but erased regular concentration in classes. At 7:30 p.m. the students met in front of the shrine to present a bouquet of daisies to Our Lady. One-half hour and two rolls of film later, excitement reached a peak when Lovette Hall once again opened its doors to visions of beauty. Heavenly music provided by the Mike Quatro trio saturated the atmosphere and con- tinued the wonderland mood—the mood that didn’t stop with the last note of the last song. “April Love” followed the couples from Lovette Hall to Topinka’s and Paul’s where the evening entertainment drifted on. Preparations for April 18 lasted for weeks, the event lasted only for a day, but the memories will last forever. TOP: The lobby at Lovett Hall provides Tom Bayer and Jane Esper with a chance to relax between dances. RIGHT: “Mirror, mirror on the wall ...” reflections of Mike Jarema and his fairest. Take Time To Reflect... It Is The Mirror Of Accomplishment A year in the life of a senior is a very special thing. It is a year crowded with events that will soon become treasured memories. It is the privilege of having your books carried on Freshman Day, the pride of wearing a senior ring, the excitement of Homecoming week-end, the enjoyment of the senior privilege in the lunch line. Challenge plays a tremendous part in a senior’s year. It places him in prominent positions. The senior be- comes a leader in school activities and he learns to ac- cept the corresponding responsibilites. College and ca- reers become tangible goals as hours are spent taking college board exams, filling out college and scholarship applications, registering with the draft board, and look- ing for employment. Crowning the year is the glamour of the senior prom, and finally the dignified graduation exercises. The future becomes the present as expectations be- come reality in this year in the life of a senior. 115 New Rings Hold TOP: Cindy Kerr and Bob Dcnner lead the seniors into church.

Special Memories For A Full And Happy Senior Year While enjoying a delicious breakfast at Blazo’s, Eric Pfeiffer displays his knowledge of Amy Vanderbilt’s book of etiquette by demonstrating the proper technique of drinking milk. Karen Checonsky, Eileen Orr and dates interpret the beat of the “Generated Heat” during ring day festivities. Real groovy! The seniors found it especially difficult this year to wait patiently for their special day. Breaking with the traditional rectangular shape of the rings, they voted to change the style, but only on Ring Day would they see the result of their individuality. Each minute was counted, then the moment arrived. No doubt about it—the rings were simply beautiful even if in some cases they just didn’t fit. The flying falcon and the “Virtus cum Scientia” became the fas- cinating main attraction for the seniors on this day and in this, their last year. All through the excitement of the day, from morning Mass and breakfast at Blazo’s to the evening dance sponsored by the sophomores, each senior examined his ring a thousand times and displayed it proudly to every friend and stranger in sight. Now, the ring is a symbol of newness, of deep union with their Alma Mater, and a reminder of the miles to go and the responsibilites to fulfill in life. Throughout the difficult years ahead, whether spent in tough college courses, em- ployment, army duty, or marriage, the ring will be an activator of the past, letting loose all of the many, many personal memories of tears shed, laughter shared, things done—the remembrances of a spectacular youth. The senior girls receive communion prior lo accepting their rings.

Proud in their new caps and gowns, the senior class files into church for the folk Mass, which preceded the Ring Day ceremony, and finally the blessing and distribution of their class rings. This year has been lived by the students, but the seniors lived it with that added vibrant energy needed to enjoy each moment. They have soared their way with the Falcon through sports, academics, and extra curricular activities, conquering every and any obstacle that crossed their paths. They have made their senior year unique with a new ring, a new motto, and new ideas. They have taken the school by storm, leaving nothing to be matched and much to be remembered. The entire year was part of a massive preparation for the immediate future. Their careers will more than likely have an excellent chance of flourishing—all this because of determined efforts to make this year a success and the next fewr a close reality. The seniors have embedded their own ’68 in the wfalls of D.C.’s foundation. In their own special way in their own special year they have made a year in their life.

After so many months in publication room isola- tion, the Clarion staff is more than ready to extend heartfelt gratitude toward those special people who contributed to the suc- cess of the Clarion—first, to Sr. M. Terenita who gave so very much of her time as advisor, to Sr. M. Gerald who watched our deficit budget grow without showing alarm, to Mr. Gillett who started us off on balanced feet, and to the people of Craine Studios for their unbelievable patience with our blunders. 1968 YEARBOOK PEOPLE 140 Senior and Faculty Index Abbey, John 22, 118 Sister Annuncia 32, 102 Barancewicz, Richard 49, 118 Besek, Janet 118 Bcsnette, Joan 108, 118 Bielak, Dianne 118 Bixman, Cande 55, 118, 128 Bondic, Elaine 55, 105, 119 Borkowski, Robert 48, 111, 119 Bonita, John 22, 35. 46, 51, 119, 120, 127, 132 Mr. Bowers 32 Bratus, Thomas 119 Broda, Janice 119, 126 Brown, Douglas 105, 119, 122 Miss Cynthia Brozowski 13, 48 Buckley, Betty 42, 119 Burke, Kevin 17, 65, 119, 129, 132 Calcaterra, David 111, 119 Caldaron, Timothy 16, 22, 65, 69, 120 Carpenter, Mark 17, 22, 39, 48, 120 Carrier, Michael 35, 51, 118, 120 Sister Charlotte 12, 39, 41 Checonski, Karen 19, 43, 105, 117, 120, 122 Chester, Marilyn 26 Clifford, Gary 57, 120 Cousino, Janelle 5, 46, 105, 111, 120, 127 Cudillo, Debbie 40, 120, 134 Czapski, Lorainc 120 Father Cusmano 11, 57 Dalton, Diana 23, 40, 120, 122 Daly, Sally 120 Sister Danielette 12 DeGrandchamp, Robert 97, 121 Dclorey, Tom 49, 121 Dcmmcr, Susan 36, 121 Dc Voc, LawTence 22, 40, 121 Dewitt, Janice 121, 131 Diamond, Dave 22, 52, 57, 66, 121 Doherty, Mary’ 122 Drab, Patricia 55, 96, 115, 122 Espcr, Jane 112, 122 Fary, Betty 27, 122, 135 Mr. Michael Foye 13 Sister Gabriella 13, 18, 81, 125 Sister Gerald 7, 11, 13, 97, 99, 124 Gantz, Patricia 27, 50, 122 Gaughier, Dave 22, 106, 122 Godvin, Kathy 27, 123 Mrs. Helen Goleniak 32 Mr. Ralph Goldstein 51, 53, 65 Grazioli, Greg 16, 118, 123, 135 Gross, Linda 27, 123 Guibord, Jerry 27, 50, 71, 118, 123 Haggerty, Sue 123 Mr. Hank Hajcuk 13 Harvilla, George 123 Mr. Charles Hebestreit 9, 12, 49 Sister Anne Joseph 12 Mr. William Hessler 12 Higgins, Maureen 2, 14, 94, 123, 126 Hoen, Timothy 57, 107, 123 Homze, Rossane 123 Hooks, Hal 1, 43, 48, 57, 59, 69, 124 Howell, Mary 124 Hutnik, Douglas 49, 64, 65, 124 Irvinskas, Julie 105, 124 Jablonski, Jere Ann 4, 55, 100, 104, 124, 134 Jarema, Michael 16, 69, 113, 124 Jeruzal, Dave 124 Sister Jolene 2, 12, 28 Sister Josephcnia 13 Miss Katherine Kelly 12 Kendziorski, John 2, 24, 57, 107, 124, 135 Kenrick, Donna 124, 126 Kidder, Denise 125 Kingsbury, Mel 97, 125 Klett, Kathy 108, 125 Kogut, Leonard 20, 22, 97, 101, 125 Kolo, Donna 95, 125 Konopka, Sue 3, 35, 98, 109, 125, 139 Kozlowski, Marilyn 27, 125 Kraatz, Mary Ann 23, 115, 125 Krajniak, Richard 27, 47, 125, 133 Kummcr, Beverly 23, 122, 125 Kurosky, Pam 5, 14, 42, 110, 111, 126, 130 Kurosky, Paula 42, 126 Mr. George LaForest 13, 101, 138 Larker, Mary 126 Leblong, Linda 114, 126 Lesniak, Jan 126 Lcwandowski, Mary 126 Lizon.
