VW Games of Learning Eileen ITIcNamara, Colleen Corrigan Perhaps this game was one of the most difficult for you, but still you managed to move a couple of spaces ahead. Your fate was often determined by a roll of the dice which included results like this: spending long hours studying ... having wild class discussions ... passing notes ... starting paper airplane fights . . . memorizing vocabularies for foreign language classes . . . cramming for exams . . . pleading for better grades... throwing homeroom parties ... daydreaming during class... forgetting assignments.. . convincing teachers to lengthen deadlines . . . boasting about success . . . blushing with embarrassment at not knowing the answer... getting an attack of spring fever. You rolled the dice and accepted the consequences. 9 Administrations Coaching Helps DC Students maintain DCs Administrative Team Top Professional Players To play cards, one needs a dealer; to play monopoly, one needs a banker and to play the game of life here at DC, one needs the administration. It's the administration who makes the rules and fights to the finish that keeps the game rolling. The principal. Sr. Gerald, holds the pole poisition. Sister devotes much time and energy to run the school smoothly and to lead the faculty and students. DC’s pastor, Fr. Kucyk. spends his limited time racing from the rectory to the church to the school with his faithful com- panion Tiger. Father is one of the referees who tries to keep things working properly. The member of the team one sees the most is Fr. Demmer. He teaches Religion classes in the high school and adult enrichment classes. He celebrates Tuesday morning mass and Is available to talk with students. With this administrative team, there's no way possible DC students can lose. They're a fine group of dedicated people and D.C. is priviledged to have them here. (1) The Christmas season always brings the best in Sr. Gerald (2) With familiar mug in hand, Fr. Demmer begins another hectic day at DC. (3) It's only pop I'm drinking, states Fr.

On every team, no matter what the sport, there's always at least one dependable player. He's the veteran, the experienced player who gets the hit In the clutch, who effectively kills the power play or who catches the key interception. On DCs administration team, this player is fTlsgr. Weier. From the first moment he stepped into the batter’s box, fTlsgr. has held an outstanding average in performing his pastoral duties. The Church of Divine Child was fortunate to acquire such an all-star for their team captain. ITIsgr. is a constant in the educational field. He's there to pat a person on the back when one scores a touchdown, to help one up from the Ice when one has been checked Into the boards, and to give one advice when one commits an error. This year. ITIsgr, Weier added two more achievements to his life’s trophy case. In October, he celebrated his 75th birthday and In June, his 50th anniversary as a priest. For his community ser- vice, a street was named Herbert Weier Drive. ITIsgr. Weier is winning his game of life and is helping students at DC to play theirs with success. 11 I J (5) (1) Sr Annuncia gives a freshman boy an eye (2) “That could not be my report card! exclaims Sue Schmenk to Mrs. Ashton (3) Miss Gates talks to an irate parent.

Returning are the innovative, respected veterans who will endeavor to train the rookies to carry on the traditions of excellence and fairness which have become the insignia of the DC teaching staffs. From the firing of the starter guns in August to the final lowering of the checkered flags in June, the teachers put forth the effort expected of any successful team. The faculty’s objective is simple: to help the students learn as much as they are capable of learning. They each have their own style of play which reflects their individuality. Regardless of the variety in their styles, the combined con- tributions add up to victory: they add up to preparing students successfully for their adult life. And that’s what this facet of the Game of Life is about. In preparing students, they are the champions.

One does not usually remember the names of the cameramen, make-up crew, or the hairstylist. When one thinks about DC. one thinks about friends, teachers. Sr. Gerald and the deans. Seldom does one consider the people who perform the thankless services within the grounds of our school. These dedicated people who work unobtrusively within the school campus are often forgotten and left unappreciated. Yet it's an acknowledged fact that our daily school life would be greatly disturbed if their steady services were not provid- ed. There would be no one to fix the radiator, no one to keep order in the kitchen, no one to provide medical assistance when someone’s ill. and no one to keep the school neat, clean and in good working order. They are “stars” in the Game of Life in their own right. They are the ones who don't claim the spotlight nor demand recognition. But they do a steady job day in and day out.

Religion plays a major role in many peo- ple’s lives. It is something to turn to in both the good times and the bad. Students deepen their knowledge of their faith by par- ticipating in class and in various activities. Prayer services and retreats offer time for meditation and reflection, masses in the chapel and morning prayer allow students to stop and think about their role in Reliqion and their role In life. The game of life is not a game of solitaire. Students unite to storm heaven for the aid of others. Working together helps them to achieve a unity necessary to reach their goal in the game of life.

Some of this year's English classes are rather unconven- tional and as a result have very en- thusiastic students. fTlrs. Shipp's Applied Creativity students sometimes wonder about her sanity when she assigns very unusual projects but all agree that the class is never boring. Honors English is a new course for freshmen who are especially adept in the subject and is designed to help them reach their potential. Various literature classes help to enrich students' knowledge and to give them a background in many cultures and styles of writing. From Basic Comp to Business English to Science Fiction, all classes offer students challenge, change, and a chance for advancement in the vast subject of English. (1) Jim Hoffmann captures the attention of the grade school children as he reads the book he wrote for Basic Comp (2) In 20th Century Authors.

Teachers are instructing future scholars with warmth and understanding while helping young minds to grasp complicated rules and procedures. H se- cond advantage is the variety of courses being offered to those possessing various desires and capabilities in the mathematics field. Algebra classes offer students various methods in which to find an equality for X. moving onward, a se- cond unknown is added, the unknown Y. Once the pupils have mastered logic skills, they can continue with sharpened pencils to Geometry classes. Now the brave and adventurous are given chances to test their resources when meeting cosines and tangents. After a lot of hard work and a few tears, the proud students reflect on what they've learned and decide that they're smarter than they thought. Just what is the value the of the unknown 'X'? DC students determine that if the unknown X is a mathematics class, its value equals a better knowledge of complex figures and numbers, and also an important lesson in learning.

Discover Tomorrow’s Realm Clumsy test tubes, unpleasant odors, impossible problems and mind boggling theories are just some of the elements of a usual science class. These are things each DC student has come to live with. Yet they are necessary to play the game successfully. The game begins in I.P.S. where freshmen work their way through a maze of experiments. Here, the ultimate goal of every student is to answer the ques- tion. What is your sludge com- posed of? The next move brings up Biology and Advanced Biology which demonstrate that there is more to life than what meets the eye. Chemistry and Rdvanced Chemistry follow. This is where students venture into the world of mass and matter. Then it's on to Physics where problems on relativity and the forces of nature devastate the mind, fln Honors Physics is of- fered to students who have a way with math and science. Students also have the oppor- tunity to take three other classes: Health V (Tledicine. Earth Science and Human Development. Through science students are able to learn about themselves and their world. It can prove to be the key to future discovery.

Deutschland and (Tlexico are rediscovered and explored in grand fashion in the French. German and Spanish classes. The leaders of the expedition through France are Soeur Cecilia fTlarie. Soeur Cynthia and mademoiselle Gates. Fraulein Kelly maneuvers the exploration of Germany while the prof leading the rediscovery of ITlexico is Senorita Kilcullen, new to DC's language department. The language classes offer not only the opportunity to discover the native tongues of foreign lands, but to explore the cultures, histories and current affairs of the respective nations. Knowledgeable teachers and colorful rooms lend themselves to the students' imaginations providing the realistic atmosphere needed to learn successfully. Students are motivated to experience a taste for dif- ferent literature, music, art and ways of life. Through these classes students are able to travel to Europe without ever having to leave the desks they sit in.

History, yuk! Why do I need to know about things that happened before I was even in existence? Social Studies, one of the most unfairly judged and frequently dreaded subjects is not what it ap- pears to be. ITIany students jump to the conclusion that history is all names and dates. But Is it? Without leaving the classroom, one can experience life in Ancient China or sailing across the Atlantic in search of a new world. In other instances, one might imagine himself issuing the verdict in a murder trial or even being the first person to explore the human mind from the inside. Social Studies, the study of man and his ever-changing society, is really not a subject to be learned and memorized but rather an ex- planation and discussion of how people might relate to or improve the world around them. cademics. . .academics. . .academics. . .academics. . .academics.. .academics.. .academics. . .academics (2) (1) Who says History is all fun and games?

With the help of their instructors, their chances of reaching the top are good. Upon entering the art room, one is usually surprised at what fDr. Foye's young proteges have accomplished. Yet. one could almost sense the struggles and frustrations that the budding artists had to withstand to produce their work of art. Each stroke of the painter's brush, each erasure of the designer's sketch and each remolding of the potter's clay is evidence of their dedication and determination. fln Rrt History class provides students with the opportunity to study the styles and trials of artists from past generations. Under the guidance of ITlr. Bergman, the Girls' Chorus and the Boys' Glee Club harmonize separately or together to produce entertaining renditions of both popular and classical tunes. These are enhanced by two groups of dedicated young singers- The Tri- ple Trio and the Discords, fill contribute to making very beautiful music for our enjoyment. The maestro here at DC is fDr. Tallieu and under his direction the band brings music to life. The members strive to achieve perfection and they usually succeed in doing so they gain experience by playing a wide range of music types and their concert perfor- mances delight the audience, music isn't everything but as the band has proven, it is one of the sweeter things in this life.

Both classes are helpful in daily life and they serve as prerequisites for a secretarial job. Office machines offers students opportunity to learn the mechanics involved in the use of adding machines, computers, and other small office aids. Accounting can train those involved in managing a company's money to become efficient bookkeepers.

ITIr. Davidson is the new Industrial Arts teacher who handles fluto mechanics. Drafting and Electronics. The fluto mechanics class is designed for those students who want to maintain the general maintenance of their automobiles. ITIr. Davidson says the girls are better students than the boys because they are willing to admit they do not know anything about cars and since they are the minority in the classes, they have enough pride not to be shown up by the boys. Drafting is an exact and precise course in illustrating ob- jects that are to be assembled or manufactured. These classes are a definite asset to anyone interested in going in- to the mechanical or engineering fields. Electronics is a new course offered at DC. ITIr. Davidson hopes to build on it. He admits that it is a tough course because there is a great deal involved in the study of elec- tronics which confuses the student. Industrial Arts offers the students a chance to design their own houses, to install their own electrical systems, to fix their own cars, in addition to many other practical projects. The In- dustrial Arts class prepares these students for managing the “outside world. (1) Watch out CM. John Glynn could be a threat!

Unseasoned thespians master scripts, dance routines, accents and mannerisms. Stagehands construct sets, locate props, set up the lighting and sound systems, sew costumes and learn to apply makeup. The band works until they attain the right mood. The directors, led by ITIrs. Bacus, work non-stop to piece the show together, never sure of the final outcome. But on opening night, everyone enjoys the rewards as the DC stage becomes Rainbow Valley. Finian (Randy Eberline) and his daughter Sharon (Lynne Nienhaus) come here from Ireland with a borrowed” pot of gold.

No one Is likely to forget the heartwarming Best Picture Kramer vs Kramer or the unity and pride felt by the American peo- ple after the young USA hockey team won the gold medal at Lake Placid. The necessity of boycotting the Summer Games in ITIoscow brought plan- ning and work on alternate games. The seizure of the American hostages In Iran and the failure of the rescue mission brought a reaction of concern among the people, as did the possibility of reinstating the draft. With the 1980 elections quickly approaching, the springtime was filled with high hopes and abundant promises in the state primaries.

That is what they would find; that and much, much more. The Student Council realized an amazing amount of their goals this year. Their main objective was to promote good communication bet- ween the student body and the administration, which they did through suggestion days and student-faculty meetings. They spent much time researching possible suggestions and common gripes of the students. In between all of this, they attended leadership clinics and retreats, spon- sored dances, picnics, projects for the poor, car washes and scores of other school activities. Another of their major achievements was revising the student government for next year and rewriting the constitution. The National Honor Society truly lived up to their high standards. They funneled most of their time and energy into charity projects, like collec- ting for Unicef and muscular dystrophy and into sponsoring a Roller Skating party whose profits went into the Heart Fund. They also held a bake sale from which the proceeds were used to buy medals for students graduating with honors. 57 Perfected Performances ITlake Enjoyable Entertainment Laughing, crying; shouting, silence: cheering, booing; rejoic- ing. sorrowing; congratulating, comforting. These words hold much meaning for the sports fans at DC. They stand for the emotions and spirits one feels for the teams. But who are the ones who promote these strong feelings? It's the cheerleaders, under Coach Raoul Leger, who can often be seen mounting, dismounting, clapping and cheering at the top of their lungs or the pompon girls, who under moderator fTIrs. Linda Shipp, keep time to the music they choose for their routines. It takes much gusto and pride to be able to stand in front of hundreds of people and to perform, whether it be on the football field or basketball court. These girls attend various summer camps. Here they learn to compete with original routines and at times to accept defeat. They experience a sense of school spirit by working and having fun together. They get a chance to make new friends and to see what other schools are like. The girls don't always win in competition but they still come out feeling like they've accomplished something.

Anything that ties in with languages and foreign countries. These include taking a trip to Vienna with the German Club, going to hear a French fTlass with the French Club, trying a new dish with the International Club and fiesta-ing with the Spanish Club.

Pritchard, who heads Debate, feels that Debate is very much needed at DC. Rs she put It: Competition of the mind is every bit as important as competition of the body. While debaters use their oratorical talents to express themselves, the photographers use pictures because they know that one picture is worth a thousand words. The Photography Club has proven this fact for their pic- tures have artistically graced the pages of the D-scene newspaper and the Clarion yearbook. Directed by ITIr. Seluk. the Photography Club is devoted to in- dividual development and improve- ment of the members' styles and techniques. Although the club is small, one could say that it has really developed. People who like movies pictures or people who just enjoy a night out belong to the ITIovie Review Club. Since many people enjoy both, this club, headed by fflr. Stann, has the largest membership, members get a chance to rate current films. So. in whatever way one likes to communicate, there's a club to meet one's needs.

In helping others, they demonstrate their sensitivity to the needs and problems which face the less fortunate. Sr. Cynthia moderates the Future Teachers' Club whose members tutor the grade schoolers in problem areas. This has become a double learn- ing process because both the tutee and the tutor benefit from the experience. The Social Action Club, headed by Sr. Cecilia fTlarie, is another such group moved by love. They organized a raffle to earn money for a poor parish, they collected used toys and even made learning booklets to take to the Children's Hospital. Close-Up students.

Crown Steel, an all-senior recreation basketball team from DC won the Dearborn Heights Recreation Class D basketball championship and was only two victories away from winning the state Recrea- tion championship. Trl-Quallty. another recreation basketball team, won the Dearborn Recreation Class D. championship.

As halftime started, a group of boys ran onto the court dressed as babies, fairies, girls or cheerleaders and began to lead the whole student section in a rousing cheer. These people were just new members of the boys' Varsity Club going through strenuous initiation. Both the girls' and boys' Varsity Clubs were active organizations during this campaign. Led by their coor- dinators (Tlr. Goepp and (Tlr. Blanchard and Club presidents Liz Skruch and ITlike Lennon, the Clubs collaborated to make over 2600 selling candy and refreshments during basket- ball games and wrestling matches. These clubs are well known for their many humorous antics as well as for their great contribution to school spirit. A hilarious confrontation in Donkey Basketball is top entertain- ment for next year. Is there any doubt why students always regard these organizations as the most enthusiastic and ex- citing clubs in the school? 75 Ski Season Survives Despite mother Nature (3) (1) Who says skiing is difficult?

In spirit of the energy drain, all en- joyed the exercise that accompanied the pleasure. Though Floor Hockey is only intramural, dedicated fans insisted upon spending their Sunday evenings in the school gym watching the games. For this sport is also fun to watch. Floor Hockey's debut seemed a big success. Hopefully next year. Floor Hockey will attract many new members and become more advanced.

So what exact- ly goes on during this day? Teachers set up an event or excursion they hope will be a learning experience outside of the normal classroom. Students visit museum and university cam- puses or they attend workshops. Others tour Greenfield Village, the Ford plant. Braille Trail and the Cranbook Institute.

The sure-fire cure is assembly every fTlonday at 8:00 a.m. One presentation, given by the hypnotist Ron Hudg- ings put a few to sleep. The Ferris State Glee Club and the DC choral department offered the sound of happy voices while the drama department gave a taste of their abilities by providing a scene from the school play. Politics was the name of the game for another assembly in which next year's student council hopefulls gave their champagin speeches. Informative sessions were given on Junior Achievement, self-protection, and college orientation. Each department presented a special program on their subject. They provided not only a morning wake- up. but a source of interest and entertainment! 79 Kevin Zahrcx. Eddie Peper Games of Challenge sports. Chris Coury Chris Kasprzyk There was no depending upon luck in this game! You had to use your talent to meet the challenge and to prove yourself to be a superior athlete. You worked hard but you had fun, too. Your time was spent on such things as... long hours of training ... monkeyshines on the team bus.. a growing sense of camaraderie ... mentally whipping yourself for a silly mistake . . . lifting your coach high on your shoulders in victory . . . bouncing back after a poor performance ... accepting criticism ... working to improve yourself . . . achieving success . . . The season was over. You cleaned out your locker and took a breather, for you knew it wouldn't be long before you’d be back in training. 81 Patrick O'Sullivan Falcons Show Guts, Poise, Power? Overcome Obstacles To Finish Strong Faced with more adversity than any other team in DC history, the '79 football squad held its own and showed what true stuff Falcons are made of. In spite of hav- ing to learn new plays under new coaches and having to overcome more than 30 injuries and a 1-2 start, the team finished with a respectable 6-3 record and came within one touchdown of gaining a berth in the Catholic League Championship game. Piloting the Falcons is 1st year Head Coach Wes Wishart. He. along with his fine assistant coaches and co-captains Dave Szczodrowski and ITIark Nycek, provided the team with the necessary leadership. The combined efforts of both coaches and players enabled the Falcons to bring home impressive victories over ranked teams. This included a 10-7 barnburner against Bishop Foley with Fred Forystek kicking the game-winning field goal with second left, a rout of Shrine and a Homecoming vic- tory over Borgess. The Falcons gained numerous individual honors. Dave Szczodrowski. Jeff Pierzynski and Don Childs led the way by grabbing flll-State. flll-Catholic and flll-League honors. fTlany others received awards, but all players combined to implant the unity necessary to uphold the fine DC traditions.

He is tired and wants to stop but he does not. Instead, he runs even harder. It is determination and perserverence that has made this year's cross country team a success. The hours of hard practice paid off with the team's best season ever. Under the guidance and leadership of seventh year Coach ITIark Carpenter, the team won the PR League Championship with a perfect 5-0 record. They defeated some tough opponents along the way, too. The DC Harriers also won the Shrine and Pnn Rrbor Invitationals and the state regionals. which qualified them for the state finals where they finished 6th, their best finish ever. Along with the team achievements, there were some out- standing individual achievements, too. Four members of the team, mike Lennon. Doug Dziadzio, Ron Debono. and mike Skruch re- ceived Pll-League, Pll-Catholic and All-City honors. The team's achievements were a combination of outstanding individual per- formances and strong team spirit and unity. With many of the runners returning and with continued hard work, DC's success in cross country promises to continue.

They showed a surprising consistency and “tracked” their way to a well-deserved league title. This is really no surprise when one considers that their coach is ITIr. Richard Goepp, the elected Coach of the Year by the Catholic League. Under his leadership, the team took 2nd place in the Women's State Open and in the Catholic League. Their other honors include third place in the State Regionals and fourth place in the State Finals. Of course. fTIr. Goepp didn't do it alone. Through the team-inspiring efforts of the co-captains Jenny Dzieciuch and Barb Kasprzyck and of the fill-Catholic Runners Renee Filiatraut. Liz Skruch and fTlonique Rea, they surpassed all other previous records and were undefeated in the league. The expectations for this season were good, the results even higher and the hopes for next year are as pro- mising as ever. 85 Falcon Cagers Blossom; End Season on High Note Surprising. Exciting. Thrilling. Challenging. All these things describe the 1979-80 DC Falcon basketball team. After a .500 season last year, hopes for this year were high. But the Falcons surpassed everyone's expectations, having their best season since 1977. They started off with a 2-2 record but as the season pro- gressed. the DC cagers got rolling. They ended league com- petition with a 7 game winning streak and beat league leader Aquinas 43-41 to tie for first in the Double A division. Then it was off to the Catholic League playoffs. After a first round win over St. Alphonsus. DC fell to highly ranked Brother Rice 38-35 in a close game. All during the year. DC fans were treated to a lot of ex- citing. action-packed basketball. Under Coach Chuck Henry, the team used a driving offense and a tough man-to-man defense. Fine individual performances also led to the Falcon's success. This year's team was led by tri-captains Scott Day. Jeff Shinn and Ed Peper. Scott Day and Ed Peper received All-League honors and Peper was also selected for the All-Catholic first team. DC has always had a tradition of excellence in basketball and this year has certainly been no exception.

It is turning into one of the biggest sports on campus and the 1979 squad did absolutely nothing to tarnish this image. The girls had to overcome many obstacles during the season and the biggest was the experience factor. As coach Jack Walker explained. Our inexperience showed at times resulting in a few losses. But overall, we played with a lot of spirit and poise. Playing in a tough league that included Catholic League Champion Lady wood and class C state runner-up Shrine, the Falcons posted a respectable 4-8 league record that doesn't reflect how well they played. The girls posted an impressive non-league 8-1 record for a combined total of 12-9. DC was led in scoring by junior ITlicky Quinn who received All-City and All-League honors. Senior captain Kathy Brewis provided the necessary leadership. The good play of the young '79 team brings bright hopes for the future.

Not much. But this year, they both experienced a rebuilding season. The golf squad was one of the youngest teams in the history of the school. Last season, many of the team's veteran members left. This gave coach Greg Smetek the job of rebuilding the team and he did just that. The squad finished with a respectable 5-7 overall record and a 2-6 league record. Second year coach Smetek offered helpful hints to the players who spent hours at the golf course practicing their chipping, driving and putting. Led by seniors Jerry Powaser. ITlike Sterling and Ron Rakecky. the team finished 5th out of 21 teams at the state regionals. With returning All-City and All-League junior Alike Horn and All-City sophomore Jerry fTlcGarvey. coach Smetek anticipates more success next year. The wrestling team is also very young. However, their inexperience has not kept them down. Coach (Tlark Yesh. a former DC graduate, has strengthened the team by stressing fundamentals and by teaching new holds and pins. Through the leadership of captain Alike Ciarelli, the only senior on the team and as a result of the team’s long hours of practicing this season, they finally attained their first victory against rival Southgate Schaeffer. Although the team does not as yet belong to a league, they did par- ticipate in several meets and tournaments. Two top contenders were Pontiac Catholic and Southgate Aquinas. The team faired well in all four tournaments. At the Dearborn and at the Edsel Ford Tournament, many wrestlers won medals. In district competition. Don Childs became the first Falcon to win an individual weight class. Since the DC golf and wrestling teams have a majority of their members returning and have the experience necessary to be victorious, they will be teams to be reckoned with in '81.

Everywhere one looks, an event can be seen going on. A long Jumper flying through the air can land inches from someone's toes, a relay team can threaten to trample onlookers and the shot put can come close to hitting the un- wary. But all these hazards don't scare the enthusiastic fans, for the enjoyment of encouraging the athletes to victory always surpasses the risks. fTlark Carpenter has moved up to the position of head coach due to the resignation of (Tlr. Foye. However, it Is dif- ficult to find him during a meet. He manages to be everywhere at the same time making sure that his runners are ready and that the events are being run smoothly. many long days have been put in by coach Carpenter and his runners. A typical day Involves the routine stretching, a short group talke with the coach, a warm-up and the scheduled workout for the day. This format has brough much success in the past and continues to do so. The team main- tained a strong lead except for an upset by rival Bishop Foley near the end of the season. The four team captains are mike Lennon, Pat ITIuldoon, John Doyle and Dave fFlyler. With their leadership and the talent returning from past seasons, success was inevitable.

Under coach Richard Coepp, and assistants Dennis Blanchard and Sean ITIorgan, the team ended the season with a 7-2 record. Coach Goepp was confident beforehand that many runners would qualify for the state meet. He based his projection on the many school records which were broken this season. The team set new records in the mile relay, the 880 relay, and the 440 relay, fit the city meet, the mile relay team took first place and Liz Powaser set a new city record in the discus. Traci Nalodka, Jenny Wilson and ITIickey Quinn, also set new school records at the city meet in the lOO yard dash, long jump and high jump respectively. Records broken throughout the season at various dual meets in- clude Jenny Dzieciuch in the mile, Linda Peters in the 200 low hurdles, Debbie Beschke in the open quarter, and Cathy (TlcCallion in the shot put. Rt the regional meet, mickey Quinn, Rasa Orentas. Chris Kasprzyk, and all three relay teams qualified for the state meet. Here DC took a second place out of 20 competitive schools. ITIr. Goepp anticipates an even better 1981 track season. Only five seniors will be leaving and he has high hopes for the incoming freshmen. He was quoted as saying, Everyone gives it their best and that's what makes it all worthwhile. Teamwork, that's all the D.C. track team needs to win, and be the best.

Divine Child defeated Bishop Gallagher 4-3, coming from behind to pull out the win. It was strong hitting and excellent pitching that won the game for the Falcons. It was DC's third win in a row following a three game losing streak. Although this article describes a single game, it gives a good description of the entire 1980 Falcon baseball season. It was an up and down year for the DC Nine, one filled with everything from extra- inning losses to 10-0 wins. Their final record. 8-15, was good for fifth in their division. fTlany things contributed to Falcon success this season: excellent coaching by Frank Carr and assis- tant coach Fred Cromie, strong pitching from Dale Erickson who had one of the lowest ERA's in the league and clutch hitting by seniors Dan Foster, mike Wojciechowski. Gary Jbara. Ron Rotellini. Bill Camp- bell and Dan Theisen. But fine individual performances are not the only things needed to win games. It takes a team effort from each and every member to win and that is what DC had. With that kind of effort, DC can be very proud of its 1980 baseball team. 13) (1) Dale Erickson displays the pitching form that gave him one of the lowest ERA'S in the Catholic League.

Before they are ready for var- sity sports, though, they must face a slow, developing process. During this time, they work on their athletic skills and their attitudes toward working hard and becoming a true Falcon. This whole process Is done on the JV and freshmen levels. These teams don't receive much publicity nor do they have scores of spectators. Yet, they are still there, day after day, week after week, making themselves the best players they can be. The '79-'80 season was a good one for JV sports. The JV football squad came In second in the league despite losing numerous young players to the varsity. The JV boys basketball and baseball teams both came in second while effectively us- ing freshmen In key positions. By be- ing able to play JV as Freshmen, these players received a head start on developing themselves. The girls JV basketball team easily won their league title as did the girls JV softball team. The Freshmen teams didn’t fare as well this year, but this didn't affect their hustle and determination. Tremendous coaching, fine effort, and true Falcon spirit enabled 79-'80 to be a great year for developing players into excellent Falcon athletes for the future.

They even introduced the first freshman co-ed lunch tables in the history of DC High. Working together as a class under the leadership of their student council officers, the Frosh received an outstanding second place in the Homecoming float competi- tion and earned themselves a respectable reputation of being both scholastically and athletically inclined. fTIr.

The Frosh of '79 are well-rounded in every respect of high school life. They are striving hard to meet the challenges they face every day spiritually, socially, athleti- cally and scholastically and are already ahead in their game of life.

Racing to meet deadlines, the sophomores face new challenges at every turn. The game board has Just begun to open wide with new activities and responsibilities which must be accomplished with a unity that only the sophomores possess. Sophomores' lives are filled not only with deadlines and deadends, but also with laughter and excitement. Class competitions, fund raisers and dances lighten the load of homework and exams by providing an open door for bottled-up energy; energy which is released in every way imagineable. The sophomores have discovered that this year has been one of the toughest but. nonetheless, rewarding. Their Homecoming float came in a respectable third place in tune with this year's theme; The Wild West. The candy cane sales proved to be one of the most successful and profitable fund raiser of the year. The sophomores' enthusiasm with activities such as the Sadie Hawkins Dance will be essential for their remaining two years at DC. Even though sophomore year does prove to be tedious and full of homework, everyone seems to live through it and emerge as the winner! (i) Row 1 Mary Beth Burke.

From ring day on. they begin to sense that this game is almost over and a new game must be played; one with more detours and roadblocks than ever before. But the juniors' key to strategy is their determination. With this they meet each challenge and turn it into something to remember. A very good example of this determination is the junior class float. Though it didn’t place highly in the homecoming competition, all who put their time and effort into it were proud of their efforts. DC provides juniors with numerous class options and a wide variety of clubs and activities to choose from. The juniors approach these selections with great energy, knowing that they are receiving spring training in decision-making: a skill they will use their whole lives. The Class of 81's steely determination is complimented by overwhelming en- thusiasm. It's this very enthusiasm that sees them through a year of constant ac- tion. From Homecoming to final exams, they perform like true champions, enduring long hours of work to prepare for the grand finale. Row 1 Tom Blessing. Bernie Borutd Row 2: Jerry Bour- dage.

I could sense my friend crying As she slowly called my name. She started with the word Laura.' Who is my closet friend, find told me of an accident That she had just been in. I heard the word coma And tears just filled my eyes. I shouted for my mother find in her arms I cried. For awhile I started thinking How could God do this to me. To take away my dearest friend Oh please, don’t let that be. I just didn't want to believe it For it caused me too much pain. I wished it were a nightmare find I would wake again. I walked into the hospital find saw her mom and dad. They said Laura wasn't better: Time was all we had. I had to see Laura So I went up to her room. I stood there looking at her Not knowing what to do. I quietly said her name find told her I was there, fls I said she must get better, my heart began to tear. From then on I've been praying Every chance I get each day That Laura will soon wake up And be her same old way. Laura is not gone. She's just resting for a while And soon she'll be with all of us Sharing her warm smile. -a close friend (1) Do You Remember The Times of Your Life? A time of laughter, a time of tears; a time of hope, a time of fears. These words accurately describe the emotions that unfolded in the hearts of the class of 1980 - the graduates who have ended another chapter In the book of life. It has not always been easy; there have been ups and downs, good times and bad -but now these times will become memories as it is finally over. The day was June 1. 1980; the time. 1:00 p.m. The graduates processing in were a beautiful sight; the girls were rob- ed In white, the t oys In red. The mass was celebrated by Father Kucyk, Father Slroskey, Father Kasprzyk, and Bishop Schoenherr. The bishop delivered the homily, which was an encouraging speech contributing to the festive spirit of the day. After the awarding of the diplomas. Valedictorian fTlike Zelek’s ad- dress offered the grads reflections on the oast along with hopes for the future. As the ceremony culminated, feelings of success were present - Individual suc- cess as well as success as a class. With this great accomplishment behind them, the graduates of 1980 are ready to (1) The Class of 1980 reflects on the past during their final moments together (2) Sister Gerald wishes good luck to historian Chris Lentz and salutatorian Gary Jbara.

(6) Valedictorian Mike Zelek recevies his well-deserved diploma Community . . . Games of Learning The inevitable risk, the throwing of the dice to deter- mine who you will be and what you will do. There will be new means of success, different forms of rewards and different pitfalls. You will be confronted with seem- ingly insurmountalbe problems like ... commuting from home to school to work back to home, without using much gasoline... finding a job, succeeding in college ... relating to new, different people, with different backgrounds... learning to balance not only a budget but time as well. These are just a few of the things you'll need to know for your adult life. Luck will play its part when once again you'll roll those dice, but more than that, your ex- perience will gain you victory. Ken Birch 149 Progressive Tool Industries Co.
