Nightlife “From Homecoming to Prom, life at DC is anything but boring.” “I still don’t see any reason why freshmen can’t go to Prom or Homecoming.” “Freshmen shouldn’t be allowed to go to homecoming because they aren’t coming home from anywhere.” “Fad day was a great idea. I loved wearing the latest fashions—better than our uni- forms.” “Spirit week was a huge success this year; there were a lot of good activities that in- volved a lot of people.” “There should be more than one dance where the girls take the guys out and foot the bill!” “The Sweetheart dance is a great way to raise money for the missions.” “Prom is the best.” Posing in America’s favorite —jeans —are Kim Ward and Jerome Przekop. 7 New wave isn’t a phase for D C ’s professional punkers. Julie Daniel, Laryssa Zina Kozak, and Steve Duda let their true colors show. Create a sensation! Spirit week held many surprises for students this year. Jeans were worn all week and each class decorated their hallway. It was the perfect preparation for the 1983 homecoming festivities. As the old song goes, ‘‘We’re the Falcon generation; when we fight with determination, we create a sensation!” The first day was twin day. Everyone dressed up like one of their freinds or even their date. Tuesday proved to be even more exciting. The theme was backwards and in- side out. The turning point of the week, Wednesday, was “deck it out” day. A homecoming Mass was celebrated by all. The next day’s theme was a combined one, “fad and slave day.” Student council members were ruthlessly auc- tioned off to students and faculty while we were all dressed in our favorite fads. Winding down the week’s activities was KISS day (Keep Instigating School Spirit). Candy kisses were distributed and all of us Falcons wore our favorite colors: red, white, and black. Finally Saturday rolled around, and what a week that was. It was time for the parade, the game, and the dance. No� « to the floor, freshman Tony Vella inches closer to the finish line in the peanut-pushing contest. “Let’s win it for D C High, Senior spirit runneth over as Bill cheers Scherie Gale Parsed. Dyer tops the human pyramid. “I belong to Mr. Smetek,” says student council member Karen Libke on slave day as she feeds lunch to her lucky owner. Pom pon girls Shelly Thomas and Anne Suchyta perform to the DC fight song in the parade. That is right, daddy! It looks like your little girl has grown up as Divine Child’s twenty-sixth homecoming queen. Falcon fans filled the stands to watch their team. The falcons won the exciting game against Aquinas by a score of 12-10. Onlooking spectators Tricia Salisbury, Zina Kozak, Lisa Matuzewski, Susie Daniel. Cheryl Stechschulte show they are pleased with their smiles. Just because DC is a newly-acquired home for freshmen, that doesn’t prevent Pam Weston and Linda Baughman from getting Involved in the festivities. 10 Bring ‘em back alive, DC! After an exhausting vacation, students are usually happy to be back in their warm, com- fortable homes. There they can depend on fam- ily members to provide a place of closeness and security. A home—that is exactly what Divine Child is. A place where we all unite as a family. Homecoming gives us a chance to show our unity and school spirit. 1983’s homecoming was the most exceptional display of school unity ever. Falcon fans packed the stands for the tra- ditional afternoon football game. The Falcons didn’t disappoint their spectators as they cruised past the Aquinas Raiders by a score of 12 to 10. During the halftime festivities, Mari- anne Quinn relinquished her crown and cape to the astonished homecoming queen, Ann Marie Gapa. Her court confirmed her title with their congratulatory hugs and tears. The spirit of the occasion soon settled into the evening atmosphere. At the homecoming dance the students danced to the music played by Prisoner. One just can’t forget the beautiful evening spent in such a memorable place. Divine Child’s 26th homecoming will be remembered by all of us in our own special way. For some, it will mean the victorious game. But for some of us it will be the time we celebrated just having a home. Even though he broke his leg in a cross country meet five days before the dance, Dave Shevock insisted on es- corting Anne Cavanaugh to homecoming. The queen and her court: Maureen McFee, Chris Roggenbeck, Janine Misiak, Ann Gapa, Julie McGarvey, Karen Libke, Laura Iverson, Kim Ward and Suzy Scarlet. 11 Uncertain of her feelings toward her new home, Anne is comforted by her father. Terrified that her nightmares of being captured by the Green Police have come true, Anne faints in fear. Mr. Dussel becomes enraged when Mr. Van Daan is caught stealing the bread in the night, and a violent struggle occurs. Mr. Frank painfully recalls the past while Miep and Mr. Kraler listen sympathetically. 12 As the children look on, Mrs. Van Daan accuses Mr. Dussel of unfairly dividing the meager stores of potatoes. Drama a success with “Diary” The second season of a new tradition at Di- vine Child was proudly welcomed with the pre- sentation of the fall play. With the success of a thrilling mystery in tow, the cast and crew of the new production were faced with the chal- lenge of a heavier drama: The Diary of Anne Frank. Set amid the destruction of Hitler’s Nazi rule during WWII, a group of eight people lived in cramped hiding for a period of two years because of their Jewish heritage. The trauma and everyday events of such a secret lifestyle were recorded in the diary of the high-spirited thirteen-year-old Anne Frank. Going through the difficult stages of growing up, Anne had to face her first love, conflicting feelings toward her parents, the annoyances of the others she must live with, and the constant terror of her family being found. Discovery after two years in hiding left Anne a mature young woman ready to face “whatever tomor- row may bring”. The hard work of the entire cast and crew, under the direction of Mrs. Pritchard, resulted in a truly remarkable piece of work. Anne, played by Mary Ellen Hogg, and Duane DiFranco as Mr. Frank led the cast of ten peo- ple (and one cat) in a successful, memorable production. The drama was truly an experience for both the actors and the audience. Unsure of each other at first. Anne and Peter get acquainted through Peter’s cat. Moushi. 13 Red, gray, black-leather pants and ties, are just some of the hottest new fashion ideas demonstrated here by Laura Harden and Monika Daniluk. Senior class unity: Tracy Moore, Musette Caing, Ann Gapa, Julie Tricia Salisbury, and Jim Fisher. McGarvey, and Karen Kurcz. 14 Deck it out; Fad day ’84 “Hi, Kathy. How are you?” “Fine. How are you, Linda?” “Pm terrific. What are you do- ing?” “I was just looking at my calen- dar; are you going to the dance on Saturday?” “You bet! I’m looking forward to seeing all those guys in their para- chute pants, leather pants and ties, tuxedo shirts, and maybe someone will have on just one leather glove.” “I hope someone has on a double- breasted suit with those pointed Eu- ropean shoes. What are you going to wear?” “Oh, I don’t know. Maybe I’ll wear a flashdance sweat shirt with my crop pants, or maybe I’ll wear my leather pants with a zipper shirt. Do you think I should wear my flat shoes, or my colorful pumps?” “I think I’ll wear my jumpsuit with some colorful earrings and, of course, a terrific hat.” “This year has been so exciting with all of the great fads!” “I know; I love it ... I can’t wait until next year.” 1983-84 Lunch is a welcome break in the busy day for seniors Shannon Young and Greg Kostin. Choosing a definite style is never easy, but for Zina Kozak, the choice is obvious. Sadies king hopeful Jim Fitzsimmons with es- cort Julie Whalen, take a step closer to fulfilling the dream of reigning. Sadies ’84: magical evening The magic started with a nervous gig- gle and a simple question. “Johnathon, will you go to the Sadie Hawkins dance with me?” A look of surprise crossed Johnathon’s face, followed by an enthusi- astic nod. This year’s Sadie Hawkins dance was sophomore sponsored. The theme they chose was ‘‘a magical evening in a land of make-believe”. Of course, they upheld the tradition of girl asks boy. The sopho- mores also decided to have a Sadies King and court. The results were as follows: Senior court members: Jim Fitzsimmons (king) Dave Man- kowski Junior court members: Bob Guterrez Sean LaFountaine Soph court members: Craig Poplar Sean McCausland Frosh court members: Joe McGinnis Tom Ozog Sadies King, Dave Mankowski, and his date Kim Ward reign over “the land of make-believe. Sadies provides a time for laughter as shown by Cheryl Stechschulte, Lisa Watson and escorts. 16 It really is a magical evening for Mark Holody, Anne Schaefer and Paul Mullin enjoy a quiet Aileen Massey, Tom Carzon, and Michele LaPalm. moment together.

Musette Caing and Michael Gallagher take a second for photographer Tina Morabito to click a quick picture. Movin’ and groovin' to today’s funky music, Laryssa Kozak and Tina Morabito make the most ol the dance. 18 Sweethearts gear up; finish first “It was a great dance; the best I’ve ever been to,” says Colleen Gallagher. Chris Tucker agrees with her, adding, “The balloons and decorations were terrif- ic.” “I had a lot of fun and 1 really think everyone enjoyed themselves,” Liz Shea says, “We should have more dances that are this much fun.” This is what the students said about the sweetheart dance. But, the dance was just the finale of weeks of work by the girls, two from each homeroom, elected by their homeroom to represent them. The girls made desserts: rice crispy treats, fudge jumbles, chocolate chip cookies, cupcakes, etc., to sell to the stu- dents with a sweet tooth. The money went toward the missions. $2,500 of goodies were bought. This year’s court was: Barb Sroka, Jennifer Dyer, Martha Heenan, Claudine Dubois and Michelle Lentz. The girl who sold the most was senior, Michelle Lentz. The royal couple, Michelle Lentz and Ken Jacobs, take time out from dancing to pose for some photos with roses, crown and cape. Michelle topped the rest of the girls, earning over $300. Dedication and school spirit describes Dan Stechschulte and his motives for coming to the dance. A bad ankle and crutches don’t stop him from attending. 19 Taco Bell takes the prize. Maybe it’s because an average meal only costs $2.67. That’s a cheap evening on the town for people with tight budgets. I Close your mouth! Carolyn Sharpe, didn’t anyone ever tell you not to talk with a taco In your mouth? Is this your $2.67 meal? Fashion flash! One of the hot new items topping the fashion charts is plastic shoes. You can’t beat them; they’re a terrific buy at $7.98. 20 Time to budget already? What’s the favorite thing to do after a school function? Hit Taco Bell, of course, and why not? It’s only $2.67 for an average meal. If you aren’t hungry for tacos, there’s always the alternative of Pizza Pizza for $6.97. As for the morning people, they can have the school’s favorite cereal, Froot Loops, for only $1.88. If you have the munchies, you can get away with a can- dy bar for 40c and a Coke for 60c. Need a new outfit to go out in? You can get an oxford for $12.00 and parachute pants for about $28.00 at your local mall. Entertainment doesn’t come quite as cheaply as nourishment. The price to see a great movie like Risky Business can set you back about $4.00. To see Van Halen or Lionel Riche perform can cost anywhere between $10.00 and $13.50. If this isn’t quite what you’re after, you could always go bowling for $1.25 a game. If outdoor fun is more your speed, you could play a round of putt-putt for $2.50 a game, or better yet, go to the beach at one of our favorite metroparks for only $2.00. What’s the cost of transportation to these places? Gasoline is averaging about $1.19 per gallon. So as you can see, it can get very expensive for the average Divine Child student. If the time comes and you find yourself broke, you can always find a sporting event such as baseball, football, or basketball to attend. They’re cheap—really cheap. They’re free!! Toucan Sam and Jeanine Percha arc great friends because Jeanine’s one of the people who got Froot Loops voted number one! She loves those loops. Voted number one by the school. Michael Jackson and Van Halen are great entertainment and a great bargain at only $8.95. Stopping for a moment from the excitement of A beautiful sight! Zina Kozak and date enjoy the music as they dance the night away at Prom, prom are Carolyn Sharpe and John Marcyan. 22 Picture perfect are Lisa Piercy and date at the 1984 Junior-Senior Prom. Prom: traveling with magic! Quiet! While Tom Fitzgerald and date sneak off for a moment alone. Prom night is a very special night for all who attend the dance. It is a night of magic, and this year was no exception. Those who attended the dance looked great! The girls wore beautiful and color- ful gowns. The guys looked like dukes in their tuxedos. The dance started at 7:00 p.m. and was held at the Hyatt Regency. Dinner was served at 8:30. Prime rib was the main course with delicious chocolate mousse for dessert. The band was the Horizons. They filled the night with all kinds of music. Their music ranged from Kenny Rogers to Michael Jackson. The students’ reactions were, for the most part, positive. Mark Micale, senior, complained, “The dance was great, but there wasn’t enough chocolate mousse.” Senior Karen Samborski stated, “It was fun, but the band could have been bet- ter.” Megan Meade, senior, exclaimed, “Dinner was great, even the ladybug I found in my salad!” Holly Young, sopho- more, simply commented, “It was O.K.” Magic is in the air as couples hold each other close and dance at the 1984 Prom. Professor Hill shows his band to the townpeopie of River City. Traveling salesmen discuss Professor Hill’s sneaky antics. The Pick-A-Little ladies demonstrate a new dance for the townspeople. Confused by love, Marian and Amaryllis, played by Deanna Dys and Jessica Firek, sing “Goodnight My Someone”. 24 Construction a big success! A successful production of Music Man was the goal of this year’s construction crew. After several months of hard work, the construction was complete—the 1984 spring musical. This construction crew included many other workers besides the actors and ac- tresses. The musical would never be a success without the help of all the ‘backseat drivers,’ the most important be- ing Mrs. Jacqueline Bacus—the director of Music Man. Backstage, the combined efforts and hard work of the stage manag- ers, lighting assistants, publicity crew and the make-up and costume crews lay down the perfect foundation for a professional performance. Also included are the highly talented band members in the orchestra who provide the necessary and skillful background for the musical. This year, besides talented high school students, the cast also included several rising stars from the gradeschool. Music Man starred Steve Sherlag as Professor Hill—not a professor at all but an all- around con man. Always one to accept a challenge, he stops at the town of River City, Iowa, to organize a band—for whom he’ll supply everything, for a price. The professor is able to con some people but not all. He meets Marian, a piano teacher, and falls in love. In trying to win Marian’s heart, the con man finds his match and becomes trapped by love. A dance troupe for the Pick-A-Little ladies? “Of The quartet of Kent Dalian, Jon Martichuski, Jim course!,’’ assures Professor Harold Hill. Roggenbeck and Scott Richards capture the atten- tion of the Pick-A-Little ladies. 25 At the beginning of the coronation of Blessed Mother Mary, Anne Gapa presents her gift of adora- tion—a single carnation. Megan Meade looks on with respect. May court honors Mary The coronation of the Blessed Virgin began as each of the members of the May crowning court placed a single carna- tion in a vase before Mary. Catherine Hodge, the crown bearer, and attendant Mary Jo McHugh assisted Michelle Lentz as she crowned our Holy Mother Mary. Every year, the senior girls nominate the members of their class whom they would like to have on their May crowning court. This year, the members of the court were Sally Faletti, Denise Filiatraut, Anne Gapa, Doris Hall, Laryssa Kozak, Sally Longe, Megan Meade, Kim Ward and Shannon Young. The 1984 May queen, Michelle Lentz, said a beautiful prayer afterward: “ . . . How special Mary is to You, Lord Jesus. For You remember her struggle to accept the unknown. Help us in our efforts to give her the honor and praise she de- serves . . . ” On this day, Mary did receive the honor that she is so worthy of. All heads turn as May queen Michelle Lentz and attendant Mary Jo McHugh enter the church. Right. In the procession, Sally Faletti and crown bearer Catherine Hodge precede the queen. 26 Everyone looks on with admiration as Michelle Lentz crowns our Blessed Mother. As she processes down the main aisle, Laryssa Kozak ponders the events of the day ahead. Center-left. The 1984 May crowning court. from left to right: Kim Ward. Anne Gapa.

Members of the court look on as Father Jim Machak celebrates mass. During the Eucharistic celebration, Joe Jansen and Dave Mankowski assist Father Machak with the offertory gifts. 27 Reciting vows at the student council induction Mass are Mr. Smetek, Miss Tominac, and Jim Fitzsimmons. Rich Norwood, Darryl Zammit, and Ed DeGuzman lead the procession for the student council induction Mass. The ring of John Sokolik is being blessed by Fr. Jim at the Ring Day liturgy. Ellen Thomas receives a special ring blessing from Fr. Jim at the Ring Day Mass. 28 Masses, rings Celebration “I think the Ring Day celebrations hold a lot of meaning for the juniors, since they are upperclass- men now, and also for the seniors, since they wear their caps and gowns for the first time ever,” says Jeanine Levy, president of the student council. Ring Day, a special day for juniors, is the one Mass not planned by the student council. On this day, the juniors receive their class rings and the blessing of the rings takes place. Also on this day, the senior class dresses up in their caps and gowns for the first time. Other liturgies celebrated this year included student council inductions, Thanksgiving Day, Christ- mas, penance services, and home- coming. In planning a Mass, a lot more is involved than most people realize. By the many ways we celebrate the Eucharist, we come to grow closer to Christ and each other. During his first year at Divine Child, Fr. Jim celebrates May Crowning Mass. 29 Travel to learn Whoever said learning is no fun? Trips this year disproved this theory. The first trip was to New York City. Mr. Foye chaperoned his group in March. The guys took a walk in Central Park as well as visiting many museums. One of the highlights was seeing the Broadway hit Cats. Over Easter vacation, two more groups went out. Miss Kelly led her group to Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. The group of about forty thoroughly enjoyed winding down moun- tain roads with Frank at the wheel and Ingo, the tour guide, barking commands. There are many outstanding memories— the bus breaking down on the Autobahn and the epidemic of watch-purchasing in Lucerne, Switzerland. The second trip was to Paris and Lon- don. No one will forget walking to the Eif- fel Tower or visiting the beautiful Louvre Museum which houses the Mona Lisa. London was just as much fun—living around the corner from Prince Charles, visiting the Tower of London, and shop- ping at Harrods.

REST AREA Looks like we made it! “Goodness with knowledge” was proved to be more than just a slogan during the 1984 Commencement exercises held on May 20th. The celebrants of the graduation were Rev. Herman Kucyk, Rev. Michael Malawy and Rev. James Machak. The guest speaker was former D C graduate Stephen Courtney Mimnaugh. The class of 1984 numbered 220 students. Their class flower was the white rose; their song was “Out Here On My Own.” The motto is, “Yesterday is already a dream, tomorrow is only a vision, but today well lived makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every to- morrow a dream of hope.” Graduation is definitely a time of celebration. Heartily welcoming the senior class, friends, and family are Laryssa Kozak and Jim Fitzsimmons, officers of the senior student government. Go to the head of the class is not a game to Valedictorian Phil Wong, Salutatorian Brian Dziadzio, and Historian Karol Stanecki. 32 Anticipation, it'a keeping me waiting. thinks Lisa Stachowiak as she Unable to decide, Steve Sherlag contemplates over whether he’s happy to go anxiously awaits the presentation of her diploma by Mr. Monea or sad to leave on his trip to receive his long-awaited diploma. 33 Sparkling enthusiasm was constantly evident in the homilies that Monsignor Weier gave. Believe me when I tell you that,” lectures Monsignor in the classrooms while visiting. Special occasions were made memorable with the individual attention that Msgr. gave. 34 National Honor Society inductions are a very prestigious happening around Divine Child High as Msgr. Weier inducts Anne Holland into this special service club. Lasting impressions Individuality was something that was very important to Monsi gnor Weier. His concern was evident as he came to school each week, maybe just to chat, see some familiar faces, or educate youth in Catholicism, but he was a very important part of the tra- dition that we call Divine Child. The faculty and students have very fond memories of Monsignor. The first thing he would do was inform us that he was getting old, but he could still lick anyone in the room. This never changed in my 12 years as a student or my past years as a teacher. Mr. Larry Rivard, counselor “He was interested in what went on at school and cared about us.” Theresa Andrzejczak. junior Monsignor Weier always commanded attention. From the first day, 1 knew he meant business.” Mike Dennis, junior Monsignor Weier was always a man of great gusto.

Well, this is what they think about classes: “Basic Acting is my favorite class. It is very challenging, interesting, and Ms. Pritchard’s a great teacher. What I re- member most was when the class put on skits for grade school students.” Michael Starosciak “What I remember most was when Sr. Helen would pray in tongues; a unique experience to say the least.” Liz Shea “I like Honors Algebra because Mr. Smetek is always cracking jokes.” Jon Martichuski ‘‘German is the most fun and the easiest class.” Pat Brewis What about clubs? “I joined the French Club because I wanted a chance to learn more about culture while having fun.” Aileen Mas- sey “I like Forensics because it gives a chance for speaking experience to those students who don’t have time to join the plays.” Joe Schramek 37 “All hail.

The prospective directors, Dina Lombardi and Jennifer Topolski, screen possible children’s play materi- al. A representative from Detroit Edison gives Sean Cooney tips on having a successful interview. 38 “The old switcheroo” This year’s English department has made a few changes, although the complete change will take a few years to develop. This year, the reading and language skills class for freshmen was dropped. They now are taking English Survey which combines short stories, poetry, and grammar, thus making the class more advanced. As sophomores, they will all be required to take Ameri- can Literature and speech, debate, or basic acting. Basic composition will be dropped. As they become juniors, they will be required to take English Literature. The purpose of this is to incorporate reading and writing into all of the English courses. “The English teachers work closely together to constantly upgrade the quality of the department, while at the same time, realizing ever-changing student needs,” commented Mrs. Shipp. Those students who are especially interested in dramatic literature have the opportunity to join the Drama Club. ‘‘This year our membership had increased, especially with the freshmen, and I’m very pleased with that,” says Ms. Pritchard, moderator of the drama club. Aside from being involved in school functions, they raised money for St. Francis Home for Boys, and got their name in the Free Press. They have seen several plays, and are writing, directing and producing their own play to tour the grade school. Members of the drama club. Nick Dragan and Anne Fadler, hypothesize on ideas for children’s plays. The Dating Game comes alive as Scott Richards, the rowdy Miller, com- petes against Jim Cafferty, the Friar, in English Literature class. 39 40 Chris Diskin wields an Exacto knife to put a story back together on her page. Chri« Giroux checks the list of entries for the literary category. The choices for making it in are made impartially, based on point scores given by all the judges. D-sCene hits top; Curio moves ahead The newspaper surged forward this year with many in- novations. The use of “newspaper” paper was a step forward from the old style which resembled construction paper. The Michigan Inter-scholastic Press Association honored the D-sCene as the best over-all design in a newspaper, best advertising format, best trend-setter, and second best paper in the state. Individual honors went to Joe Schramek for front page, Denise Filiatraut for sports page, and Kathy Meade for on-the-spot reporting. Tim McDonnell and Kathy Meade also won honorable mentions for sports page and news story, respectively. The Great Lakes Inter- scholastic Press Association also awarded the D-sCene with the first place award. The Detroit Free Press also handed out awards to Cathy Kaza for her story on George Orwell, to Chris Diskin for her drug usage story, and to freshman Mary Gallagher for the Black history month story. The December and May issues of the Curio were pub- lished without incident after the change of advisers. The December issue, coordinated by Mrs. Shipp Sand Ms. Madry, won second place at Michi- gan Inter-scholastic Press Association. Ms. Baron-Klask took over for the May issue, maintaining the fine quality. Junior Cathy Kaza and sophomore Paul Hatty get the entries in order be- Nora McLaughlin copy-reads the fore deadline. poems before paste up. 41 Eric Novak ponders the many art entries for the May issue of the Cu- rio. Color spreads may be new, but surely editor Karol Stanecki understands what must be accomplished. 42 Messages and memos are written to Ms. Faith Ducas anywhere the staff finds room, demonstrates Carolyn Sharpe. We do it all for you The 1984 staff consists of 15 student members which include eleven seniors, three juniors, and one sophomore. Senior Karol Stanecki serves as editor, and English teacher, Ms. Faith Ducas, as advisor. There are 10 15 student photographers. This year’s staff held a prosperous fund raiser entitled, “Fad Day”. Students dressed in their brightest outfits so photographers could take pictures of students in and around school. These photos can be found in our color section (the first in the history of our yearbook). Success is the word used to describe the student ad drive—over two thousand dollars were turned in. As incen- tive, students who sold fifty dollars or more were treated to a two dollar book. The book sale itself was well re- ceived by the student body. Very high percentages of stu- dents purchased the books. Each year the staff strives to produce a better edition than the previous one. This year’s major changes include: color photographs, a larger book, and innovative layouts. Darlene Zweng can be quoted as saying, “I like yearbook because I can have fun while doing something that I en- joy.” Michele Thompson finds it both rewarding and en- riching. Editor, Karol Stanecki, claims that, “the staff this year is hard working and creative.” 43 Multiple readers Linda Baughman, Mike Prince, Dave Latcha, and Anne Fadler bring history to life in Steve Allen's Meeting of Minds. Kristan DIFranco transforms vitality and expression into the magic of a children's story. Varsity debaters Barb Sabol and Mike Prince discuss the inherent flaws in the present system. Coming to the defense, sophomore Steve DeWitt gives an eloquent speech for the present system. 44 Tradition of excellence The Divine Child Debate and Forensics Teams estab- lished a new tradition of excellence in interscholastic speech competition during the 1983-84 season. Under the guidance of director Robert Wroblewski, an emphasis on quality, intensity, and personal student growth created a renaissance for these exciting speech programs. The DC Novice Debate Team again qualified for the finals of the State Novice Tournament and captured first place in both the Detroit Catholic Forensic League and the Detroit Novice League. The varsity and novice teams com- piled over fifty wins for the season. The expanded DC Forensics Team gained statewide rec- ognition by winning over fifty awards in the Detroit Catho- lic Forensic League, the Essexville-Garber Tournament, and the State Tournament. Team members Jim Fitzsimmons, Ann Belaski, Mike Prince, and Steve DeWitt earned special recognition by qualifying for the National Catholic Forensic League Grand Tournament in Cincinnati. The special bond of friendship, support, and team spirit which characterized the 1983-4 DC Debate and Forensics Teams made them truly something special. The verdit. please. Freshmen John Townson and Dianne Fadler debate the relative merits of the special verdict. 45 Senior Michele Durkin and Mi- chelle Lentz show off their smurf plnatas at the Spanish club Christmas party.

Thanks to language classes, students are able to spend their days in France, Germany, Spain or Rome — well almost! Four years of each language are offered. Although only two years are required, it is recommended that four years be taken. From the first year of learning basics, students progress to studying the history and culture of their particular country as well as mastering the language. Learning another language opens up a whole new world to students. Along with classes, the French, Spanish, Ger- man and Latin clubs allow students the opportunity to experience the culture of other lands through various orga- nized activities. The French club got a taste of French cuisine during a luncheon at the Auberge Inn. The club also had fun at the Christmas and Mardi-Gras parties, and attended a French mass at St. Joachim’s in Detroit. The Spanish club was quite active this year also. Senior and junior pot-luck dinners were attended by many. During the Christmas party, the competition was tough for the best pinata. After the contest, members had fun breaking open the pinatas to enjoy the treats inside. The German club viewed several German movies, with Ms. Kelly there to help with translations. Junior Jenny Hetrick samples re- freshments at the French club Christ- mas party. 47 Being exact is part of being in the Pub Club. Dave Shevock is carefully removing blotches of paint with a damp cloth. Emotions and fears can be seen in a sample of handwriting. Sr. Maria is pointing out the signs of an ambitious person. 48 Shh! Imagination zone If you want to be involved in a spirited club or learn something new and exciting, then the Publicity Club and the Handwriting Analysis Club are for you. The publicity club, headed by art teacher Miss Madry, is mainly in business for the spring musical. They used a method called silk screening to print the musical design of horns on T-shirts and posters. “Silk screening is not that difficult. It is basically a process whereby paint seeps through small crevices on a screen, leaving an imprint on the cloth or paper.” “The pub club is a lot of fun. I really like seeing my work on the posters or T-shirts. I feel a sense of pride being involved with the play.” The Handwriting Analysis Club is basically for those people who like to learn of others’ personalities. In the club, they carefully scrutinize samples of handwriting. “By looking at someone’s handwriting you can deter- mine that person’s temperament and personality. It’s really neat to determine how a person will react before you meet him or her.” Master carver. Tom Wong, carefully surveys the screen for minute imperfections. The acreen ia removed and voila, a perfect print emerges. 49 Prayer aervices give students a new insight as dem- onstrated by Tina Morabito and her class.

Arnie Muscat leams about peace and social justice through enjoyable and educational means. 50 Religious expansion In our school, religion classes are the base on which our teachers build. Death and Dying has been reintroduced at the request of the students and thanks to Mrs. Majors’ hard work, it was very successful. Much gratitude is offered to Mrs. Majors for the care and concern she al- ways expresses. Christian Lifestyles is now offered to broaden the Mar- riage class to include single and religious life as well as married life. New with the religious staff is Mrs. Stuckey. She taught previously at Marygrove College and has taken on the Modern Moral Problems class. Religion is more than classes, lectures, and tests. Teach- ers try to convey this message, and as Sister Helen states, “We want the students to experience living out the faith; to give of themselves.” Sister Helen expresses the need for change and transition in the religious curriculum. Teachers try to expand on classes by encouraging stu- dents to participate in Christian service projects. Students are motivated to go out into the community and help peo- ple. The goal of the project is to build a more loving and generous Christian community. Hunger Awareness Week also aims to stimulate the school. We contributed to St. Agnes parish to make us more aware of the needs of the poor. Interesting conversation and controversial topics are discussed here by Sister Cynthia and Tracy Richardson while on retreat. 51 Jim Plgott carefully prepares his jam cookies before baking them in Foods class. Watch your margins! exclaims Mrs. Murphy to Chris Kuczajda during a typing class. Alternate routes We have a very large variety of electives this year. Home economics, industrial and fine arts, and business classes are offered as electives for the students’ advantage and enjoyment. These classes enable us to learn many skills helpful now and in the future. The home economics classes include classes in sewing, cooking and needlecrafts. These classes provide talents and skills that are used most often in a lifetime. The fine arts classes deal with painting, drawing, ceram- ics and various other artistic skills. The classes help develop the very talented artists of the school. The industrial art department involves classes such as auto and drafting. These classes open the student’s eyes to many career ideas, one of which is engineering. An extra in the auto class was the annual contest for auto shop queen. This year’s queen was senior Karen Samborski. Ka- ren stated, “Drafting gave me a good introduction for some of the classes I will be taking in college next year.” The business classes offer such skills as typing and accounting. These classes offer secretarial skills. I can ace the problem! exclaims Chris Marano in an auto class. 53 “I had a lot of fun working with the actors and actresses,” says Chris Tucker, head of costume crew for Diary of Anne Frank. “The play went over very well. Here, Chris irons a shirt wrinkled from the punishment of the last night’s performance. Peek-a-boo! Duane DiFranco peeks around Kris O’Neill who, along with Chris Toth, is turning him into Mr. Frank. Duane's role required a beard, grey hair, and age make up. The girls’ lounge was used as a make-up room. Bzzzzz. Working hard, Paul Holody cuts the wood that he and other set crew members will build into the library, the train, or anything else in the Music Man. Mr. Foye designs the sets and directs the building. He has been doing this since DC’s first production. Old Miser Madison was a statue in the center of River City. To create Mr Madison, some one with great ar- tistic skill was needed, so Eric Novak got the job. Checking it out. Kathy Meade, prop crew head for Diary of Anne Frank, sorts things out to get ready for the hectic play nights. A week be fore opening night, tech week is run. The entire play is done then. 54 Crews make it happen If a theatrical production was a race car, the director would be the driver, the actors would be the body, and the crew would be the engine. The crews—costume, make-up, prop, set, and light and sound—are truly what makes a production go. Imagine Dia- ry of Anne Frank done on a bare stage! Think of Music Man performed in blue jeans! They cake layers of make-up on actors and zip them up so they can make their cue. “What they do is fantastic. I was really impressed with all their work,” says Darlene Zweng who acted in both of this year’s plays. “I was espec- ially impressed with the loft and stairs in Diary of Anne Frank.” Nancy Horvath, on set crew, thinks, “It was really neat seeing how things are put together. I really enjoyed doing it.” Of course, working on plays takes up quite a lot of time, but crew members don’t seem to mind. “It gives me a chance to meet a lot of new and fun people,” says Chris Toth on make-up crew. And Chris Tucker says, “Hopefully I can do it again next year.” Careful measuring is needed to make the sets to transform the stage into River City. Iowa, the setting for the Music Man. Greg Mazurek. here, does his part in the creation of the lit- tle town. Quick test.

Is it an invasion? Government students fulfill a requirement by presenting a skit on the process of immigration. This also provides a welcome escape from daily classroom work. One pint or two? Students donate blood at the annual Red Cross blood drive sponsored by the NHS. 56 Will the real Jackson step forward? Mr. Monea emphasizes the difference to one of his history classes; his unique sense of humor adds a personal touch to his classes. Leadership excels, takes the wheel History classes are required during a student’s last three years at our school. These classes teach students about leadership in our country and that of foreign nations. They learn about the present and how to cope with situations in the near future by studying and analyzing the past. Skits and projects frequent the classes and provide an alternative to traditional lectures and testing. Each year, Mr. Lesnau accompanies several students to our nation’s capitol, Washington, DC. Once again, the trip was a great success. Students participating in the Close-Up trip actually saw our government in action, and were able to meet political officials. They learned a great deal about leadership and enjoyed themselves at the same time. Leadership is practiced by the National Honor Society right here in our school. Students are chosen to be members in recognition of high academic achievement and active participation in organizations. NHS sponsored their annual olood drive in November and was able to donate generously to the Red Cross, thanks to participating students and faculty. The Society also showed concern for the community by making Valentines and sending them to Children’s Hospital in Detroit with hopes of brightening a sick child’s day.

Fascinating sights such as the Capitol Building were common on the Close-Up trip. 57 58 Getting the gym ready for the homecoming dance is Jim Hetrick putting colorful posters on the walls. S.C. fuels up spirit Have you ever wondered who does the organizing of homecoming, prom and other dances, as well as spirit week and other special activities? Our very own student council is where credit is due. Hours are spent talking things out and getting groups together to organize activities for the school. Student council takes the time to make up our newsletter, and they also have brainstorms on how to raise money for the different classes. Long before the majority of us even think of school during summer vacation, the student council is working frantically to get the halls ready for the rest of us; hanging up posters, organizing activities, and preparing for the freshmen’s first scary day of high school. If it weren’t for the leadership abilities of the coun- cil’s members, many things would surely be left undone throughout the school year. One council member shared her opinion on what she thought the student council has done for her. Senior Sally Faletti said, “I met a lot of new people outside of school by participating in a Sesquintennial Celebration Mass (150th anniversary of the Archdiocese of Detroit). This was one of the most nervous and exciting experiences I have ever had throughout my years at Divine Child.” Decorating the gym for the homecoming dance, Sally Faletti arranges flowers for the tables.

Math, science-students preparing for the future. The chance to excel in math at Divine Child is aided by specialized courses ranging from basic to advanced levels. The basic classes are designed to help those who find math a major problem. The advanced classes have been incorporated into the department to challenge the serious math student. These courses range from freshman honors algebra to calculus, a college level class. In the area of science, Divine Child also moves into an area of excellence. The department courses such as biology, chemistry, advanced biology and physics provide the student with an excellent background, especially for those who wish to continue in science after high school. The science fair, sponsored by the science department, allows the student to delve into whichever area of science is appealing to him. It is an excellent opportunity for the inventive student to investigate an exciting realm of science not covered in his science class. Math, science-students preparing for the future.

In the spotlight with a trumpet solo, Tim Flannery performs “Rise’’ for a jazz concert. Concentrating on a flawless performance, the clarinet section contributes their part of the 1812 Overture”. Swinging to “A String of Pearls”, the DC Jazz Band has ’em dancing in the aisles. 62 The unseen performers of a play, the orchestra rehearses for The Music Man. Band swings, plays on “The Band is undefeated”, reads one poster in the band room. Such is the attitude and, indeed, the performance of the Divine Child Varsity Band. Composed of sixty students, the concert band has proven itself to be a talented group of musicians in both concert and competition. The group as a whole rehearses each day in class for upcoming events. This year, the band attended and per- formed at a pro-life rally held at the capitol in Lansing. Also attended was a band competition where the group played a series of three pieces, being judged on such things as tone quality, dynamics, and accuracy. Their ex- cellent performance earned a red ribbon and the experience of hearing other award-winning bands perform. Also highly regarded are the smaller groups of dedicated students which form the pep and jazz bands. The pep band raises spirits at each football and basketball game with their rousing cheers to urge the team on to victory. The jazz band rehearses long hours after school to prepare for their shows, swinging to such tunes as “In the Mood”, “Stray Cat Strut”, and “Satin Doll”. No matter what event the band is playing for, they perform with the spirit and excellence of Divine Child. Senior Matt Kowalewski and Jane Brand perform their award-winning duet for a band concert. 63 Horns-up! signals drum major Mary Jo McHugh as the band gets ready to play Championship”. We can tell by their smiles that Jennifer Hetrick and Katie Dubois are excited about the day's festivities as they line up for the homecoming pa- rade. Who keeps the band in step with the steady beat of their drums? Chris Salisbury, Martha Heenan, Steve Karas, Rick DelRosario and Jenny Skwarski—that’s who! As they parade toward Crestwood’s football field for the '83 homecoming game, the trombone line marches in perfect formation. 64 During a long marching practice, majorettes Sally Faletti and Karen Samborskl take a well-deserved break. Band, take the field! When the band marches out on the field for the half time show, everyone is sitting on the edge of their seats. The talented musicians along with the awe-inspiring auxil- iary corps always light up the field with their creative and innovative shows. The band made an interesting excursion to the state capitol for a Right to Life rally in October. They played songs for entertainment purposes on the front steps of the capitol. Afterwards, band members were given a tour of the capitol. It takes many hours of practice to put on a half time show. The band practices every day during class, and three to four days after school with the flag corps and majorettes. Besides the practices after school with the band, the flag corps and majorettes practice many hard hours on their own. But as soon as Mr. Foye announces, “Band, take the field!” the many hours of grueling prac- tice seem to pay off and the students feel that it was worth it. _____ During the football season, the band incor- Nporated into their shows such great top forty hits as “Beat It” by Michael Jackson, “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor, and “Maneater” by Hall Oates. Flag Corps members, Nicole Mently, Cathy Kalita, and Katie Dubois perform their precision routine to the Falcon fight song.

The senior quartet —John Sartor, Tom Geoffrey, Mike Thomas, and John Sammut — sing a salute to the Beatles. The freshman choral class fully gets into their music as they perform to “Fame.” 66 Concert is smash hit This year’s winter concert helped raise the spirits of all who attended. It contained the musical talents of the glee club, girls choral, freshman choral, and girls dance classes. It also featured the Discords and Cordettes singing and dancing to their show titled “I’ve Got the Music in Me.’’ All of this didn’t just happen; it is the result of many hours of practice and the joy of singing. The girls choral class repeatedly practiced, day in and day out, to such songs as “Ice Castles,” “Till There Was You,” and “I Sing the Body Electric,” while the boys glee club rehearsed such songs as “Rhythm of Life,” and a medley “For Men Only.” Besides these choral classes, James Bergman, the choral director, has also added a new music class, fresh- man choral. These freshmen enjoy singing songs such as “The Theme from the Pink Panther,” and “Try to Re- member.” With thanks to the showchoir band for putting in their two cents by playing all the music, the concert was almost finished. The behind-the-scene crews put the finish- ing touches on it. They pulled and tugged until everything was perfect. The lighting and sound crews did what they know how to do, and resulted in making the concert enjoy- able to everyone who attended. Tm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair” is one of the many songs the girls choral class sings dur- ing the concert.

Broadway-bound Deanna Dys catches every eye in the Silverdome. Easing down the road The Show Choir is composed of three basic sections: the Cordettes, the Discords, and the band members. There are twenty-four members of the actual group plus nine band members. Mr. Jim Bergman serves as their moderator and instructor. Membership in the club is attained through auditions held in the spring for the following year. Rehearsals begin on September first for the video taping session which be- gins in October. The tapes are then sent to Show Choir Festivals and Competitions throughout the country. Invita- tions to participate are usually based upon the taped per- formances and are extended to various schools in the month of January. This year’s Show Choir was asked to participate in a Show Choir Festival in Washington D.C. The group took home the first place trophy and the “Best in Class’’ award. The Discords and Cordettes also performed during the 1983 Prep Bowl at the Pontiac Silverdome and our own Winter and Spring Concerts. They prepared to take the show on the road by performing at three local schools. While in Washington, the group appeared at The US Sol- diers’ and Airmen’s Home, at La Rhine High School in Maryland, and were adjucated at the Washington Pavilion. Deanna Dys and Suzy Scarlet served as choreographers, N Robert Cairns as the instrumental coordina- tor, and Steve Sherlag was president of the Show Choir. Energetic and dazzling are two adjectives that best describe this year’s club. Jerome Przekop comments. “As far as I’m concerned, we have the strongest football program in the state, and this is where it all begins.” Of course, he’s re- ferring to the weight room, here, being facilitated by Joe Shurmur.

Tom Ozog, in front, and Bob Shurmur, next to him, observe the others and wait for their next turn. Gym, dance workin’ it Sweat. Perspiration. Call it what you will. I never liked to do it. Why then do I and most of the rest of the world participate in sports, labor, and things like phys. ed. and dance classes? Well, Rose Scarpella says, “Dance is a way to take all the frustrations of academic classes away and gives you a chance to relax and enjoy yourself.” According to Miss Poirier, “The purpose of phys. ed. is to have students gain an understanding of how they may improve their cardio- vascular fitness level.” Two major things were added to the phys. ed. depart- ment. The first is a mixed gym class called the lifetime sports class. It is geared for students who aren’t interested in varsity athletics. Golf, softball, bowling, volleyball, and other recreational sports are focused on. The other change was a new health class. It taught the kids about first aid, substance abuse, etc. It replaced the gym class once a week. Dance was only a one semester course this year. It is not a class for the experienced dancer. Most of the first quarter is spent learning basic dance steps. The class got its first stage experience at the spring cho- ral concert. The girls did a routine as the choral classes sang. Unfortunately, dance will not be offered next year. But Mrs. Nelson says, “Stay tuned for a possible dance club!” Catching their breath. Frank Enemy of the puck.

Much to the delight of the skiers and moderator, Mrs. Murphy, Mother Nature relented and let it snow. After a mild, practically snow-less winter, many ski club members were excited by the prospect of Friday outings once again—this year at Al- pine Valley. The ski club welcomes skiers of all levels—from begin- ner to the advanced expert. Lessons varying in difficulty are offered to all members, to teach beginning skiers the basics and add to the advanced skier’s skills. There are ski slopes designed to challenge every skier. Besides giving skiers the opportunity to enjoy the snow and learn to ski better, the ski club provides the perfect setting for friendships—from the lively bus rides to a cozy fireplace in the lodge as well as on the slopes themselves. This year, a weekend ski trip was organized separately by Mr. Davidson and Mr. Lesnau. All students were invited to ski Shanty Creek for a weekend in January. At a reasonable cost, students were given lodging, meals, trans- portation, and skiing, among other things. One student summed up the trip by stating, “It was an awesome weekend!” Put on your ski gear and tackle those slopes— Patiently waiting for the bus are Jeanne Pyonk and Colleen Beaudoin. 73 Soaring over hilla is part of the ad- vanced run at Alpine.

Mr. Simon helps defeat the sophomore team. Tune-up with fitness Recently, people have taken easily to the fitness craze. They have started to work out and exercise more to improve their health and physical skills. DC has participated in this fitness frenzy with the girls’ physical fitness club and boys’ intramurals. The girls’ physical fitness club was designed to help the girls develop their cardiovascular fitness and promote good muscle tone. The girls met every Tuesday and Thursday after school to lift weights and exercise on the machines. The girls learned a lot about keeping themselves fit and had a good time doing it. All of DC’s athletic stars don’t get the proper recognition that they deserve. The boys’ intramural players get together to play either football or baseball. These guys play not for the glory of the game, but for the fun of it. Their main ambi- tions are to have fun, improve their athletic skills and, of course, defeat the teachers. This year the students showed tremendous effort in the championship game, but still handed the teachers a victory with a score of 14-7. Throughout our whole life we will always need to keep ourselves physically tuned-up. DC provides opportunity, but the athletes provide dedication.

Club teams score Although Divine Child is well known for its outstanding sports teams, such as football and basketball, little is ever heard of the teams which play as clubs. The tennis team and the bowling team are two such sports. The tennis team plays every other week at the Dearborn Indoor Racquet Club.........or wherever else they can find a free court. This year, the few hard core members continued their playing into the summer and attended the Michigan State University summer sports school for the tennis session. A week of intense instruction and competi- tion may not produce another McEnroe, but it does make up a fine tennis team. The bowling team meets every week to do their best at improving their averages. Combining skill, determination, and just a little luck, the teams play for fun and competi- tion. Satellite Lanes are their bowling grounds and, as one member puts it, its just a great way to have fun with friends. Whatever the game, wherever the place, club sports such as the bowling and tennis teams provide an activity for the lesser-known athletes to excel in the tradition of Di- With strength and skill.

Recreation: the year in sports “We had the best team ever from DC. We won the city champ- ionship!” Dave Cinzori, wres- tling “We consistently have been one of the most powerful teams in the state, in the top ten for the last seven years. We have won some- thing like seven regional championships in a row, and so many consecutive league championships we’ve lost count.” Pat Sheposh, cross country “It was a very satisfying season because we were undefeated in the league and only lost two games all season. This was the best record the girls ever had. It was great fun.” Sally Longe, girls basketball “The team had a very successful season as our outstand- ing record indicates. While dominating our league, we worked our way to a select spot in the state finals. Our excellent season was a reflection of hard work by the team and our coach.” Tom Tracz, golf “Be a family and stand united was our saying. I have never seen more heart or dedication than I did on the 1983 team.” Tom Brock, football Striving for the finish, senior tri- captain Pat Sheposh exhibits the competi- tive force that led the cross country team to another top finish. Unity prevails The varsity football team had one major goal this season—to win. With their record of 6-3, this goal was clearly reached. No matter who the op- ponent, the team went out every game to win. Although in a couple of games they didn’t get needed breaks. Coach Wishart states, “They played up to their potential.” Winning their league proved this. One outstanding asset this team had was their ability to work together and not allow personal differences to stand in their way. Team unity carried them the whole season. They picked up the slack for one another if a teammate wasn’t performing at his best. The most memorable moment of the season to Coach Wishart was the 80 yard touchdown pass from Chris Wag- ner to Michael Dennis against Aquinas. This is the most memorable moment because the Falcons weren’t picked to win, and on the first play and first down, this completion was made. It set the tempo for the game as they went on to beat the Raiders! The J.V. and freshman teams won their leagues also, each team’s record being 7 wins and 1 loss each. The J.V. lost to Bishop Gallagher and the fresh- men lost to Catholic Central.

Girls strive; Boys thrive The 1983 girls cross country team qualified for the state meet for the first time in three years, by placing second in their region. The long road to “the states” was paved with a second place finish in their league (AA), and a fifth place fin- ish in the Catholics. Out in front this year were sopho- more Colleen Gallagher and junior Kathy Peters, although junior Pam Read and sophomores Sharon Vondrak and Chris Schmenk also won individual races. According to Coach Goepp, this team’s most outstanding quality was its depth. “The Varsity finished within 10 to 12 places of each other,” he said, “but unfortunately, they were usually near the middle.” (this results in too many points to win a meet.) The 1983 guys cross country team was consistently in the top three in their invitationals, winning the Shrine and Spartans, and taking second in the Holly Invite. After winning the City Meet for three years in a row, Carp’s runners fell to a respectable third, putting Pat Sheposh, Brian Dziadzio, Jim Ryan and Mike Seurynck on the all-city list. Undefeated in league competition, they won Divisional Champs once again. Hitting the biggies, the meets leading up to the state meet, the guys fared well. Regions Champs for the 6th year in a row, the runners went on to capture third in the Catholics. Winding down the season, the team ended up seventh in the state, their lowest finish all year.

After months of hard work, they began their winning streak by coming out on top in the Mt. Carmel tournament in mid-Sep- tember. They continued by beating various teams in non-league games and went on to be undefeated in their league for the first time in DC history. Not only did the varsity win their league, but the J.V. and freshmen teams also did. When the varsity girls went to Calihan Hall for the Catholic league playoffs, they had their first disappointing loss to Regina, but bounced back to capture a district title. Then, for the third year in a row, the girls went to the regionals to defeat Aquinas in the first round. But in the second round, they had a heartbreak- ing 68-66 loss to River Rouge, to end their season of play. All in all, the girls basketball teams have achieved a lot of success with their determination and unity. FALCONS OPPONENT 52 Bishop Borgess 33 55 Mt.

With a final record of 10-3, Mark Rakecky and Mark Tomilo led their teammates to the AA Division championship, making All-Division. The divisional flag was only a start. Rakecky and Tomilo took seventh and fourth respectively in the regional, helping the team to second place. Mr. Smetek’s crew wrapped up the year with a 15th place finish in the state finals. Two freshmen, Tom Zakerski and Rick Egnatios, won letters, leaving a solid core for next year. OPPONENT SCORE W L Shrine 158-188 W G.R.

According to Joe Jansen, “It was the highlight of our season.” Coach Mark Yesh piloted his team to a ten win, one loss, one tie season, and six of his wrestlers won All-City honors. Along with Mike Romeo, Rick Romeo, Dave Cinzori, Tim Vella and Joe Jansen, Dan McGarry and Arnie Muscat won second team honors. Mike and Rick Romeo also qualified for state competition. Rick Romeo.

With sen- iors Jim Agemy and Chris Wagner as co-captains to lead the team, DC had a large amount of talent and experience. Head Coach Pat Sieszputowski guided his team through a terrific season with an overall record of 17 wins, 6 losses and an 8-2 league record. This record lead the boys to the Catholic League Playoffs and they eventually reigned as district and regional champs. The team also went to Eastern Michigan University to play in Quarterfinals, but lost to Oak Park who went on to be State Champs. Some of our players were awarded with basketball honors. Among them were Jim Agemy, Brian Dziadzio, Mike Seurynck, Mark Tomilo, and Chris Wagner awarded all-league. Making All-City were Jim Agemy, Brian Dziadzio, Mike Seurynck and Chris Wagner. Jim Agemy and Chris Wagner made All-Catholic. Finally, Jim Agemy was awarded All-State honors, while Chris Wagner received an honorable mention. 88 Brian Kukla and Mike Seurynck jostle for an offensive rebound on their way to overtime.

Well, the girls track team practiced as dutifully this year as in any other, but the results have never been quite so overwhelming. “This was our first undefeated sea- son,” stated coach Richard Goepp, “as well as our best finish in the City and the Catholics.” The team finished sec- ond in the City Meet with 64 points, third in the Regionals with 69 points, and fourth in the Catholics with 56 points. As if winning was not enough, the ’84 team went one step further, setting several school records as well. Two freshmen played a part in this: Sue Bacigal who set new records for the 100 yard dash and the long jump, and Sue Nissen who set a record for the shot put. Other record setters were juniors Michele Prince, Pam Read, and Kathy Peters, along with sophomore Sharon Vondrak, who set a record for the two mile relay. With this kind of season, what more could anyone ask? How about another one like it for next year?

Their accomplishments prove just that,” boasts Coach Carpenter. The track team was league champs and went on to be city champs for the first time ever. They also finished 1st in the Foley, Eagle, and Holly Fresh- men-Sophomore relays. The team then finished 2nd in the Rice relays and ended the season by finishing 3rd in the state finals, this being their best ever. Many school records were set this year, 3 of them by Mike Gallagher. He broke the previous record in the 100m. and 200m. dashes and the long jump. The 1600m. relay record was broken by Mark Kitlinski, Brian Kukla, John Laney, and Mike Gallagher, and the 3200m. relay by Mike Seurynck, Matt Abbott, Pat Sheposh, and Brian Dziadzio.

That’s exactly what first year coach Cheryl Szczodrowski’s Lady Falcons accomplished during the ’84 season. “We were very successful for being such a young team on the field,’’ said Szczodrowski. “We had a tremendous season.” After dropping two of the first three contests, the Falcons roared back with a very impressive 27-6 record. The team was led by the one-two punch of seniors Ann Gapa and Donna Kempinski. Gapa’s blazing fast ball cut down opposing batters time and again, while Kempinski’s sharp defense at shortstop and powerful bat provided much of her support.

A thrilling 4-3 victory over number one state ranked Bishop Gallagher wrapped up the Catholic League Championship; while a 9-3 win over Detroit Mackenzie sealed DC’s first ever Detroit City Championship. The season was highlighted by the quality play and superb leadership of the team’s five seniors: Jim Agemy, Tom Brock, Rick Miller, Mark Rakecky and Gerry Wnuk. All five seniors re- ceived All-League recognition, all but Rakecky garnering All-Catholic Honors. All five also earned All-City laurels with Agemy and Miller getting some All-State recognition.

Leading our squad to many victories were Michelle Lentz and Anne Suchyta. “We are so proud of our girls.” Why is everyone so proud? Because this year they had twelve beginning girls and still ended up with a multi- tude of awards. They won a five star award at U.S.C.A. camp, they won a fourth place at Catholics, and won a fifth place at the Pistons competition held at the Pontiac Silverdome. Under the direction of coach Kim Rivard, the cheerleaders also out-did themselves. During the year, the squad was held together by captains Lynn Malinowski, Jill Gollon, and Jeanine Levy. The girls attribute much of their success to the things they learned at P.A.C.E., the Pontiac Catholic Cheer Camp. Through the year the girls picked up many awards. At the Oakland-Macomb Competition the varsity took third as did the J.V. They also won a third at Catholics with cheers and a routine to the “Curley Shuffle.” Finally, they went to their finale at state competition. They placed third also. The girls were a bit disappointed, but as Lynn Malinowski pointed out, “Being third in the state of Michigan sure isn’t bad!” Varsity cheerleaders: Julie Baldwin, Jeanine Homecoming parade is a different, but excit- Levy.

Who is this Santa? Why. of course, it’s senior Sam laquinta! “I remember freshman year and going into the girls bathroom to vote for the executive board.” Junior Affairs “This year is full of excitement, although it is by far the hardest year!” “This year has been so busy. I’ve had to work hard in school, take my S.A.T., and think about colleges.” Sophomore Knowledge “Anything is better than being a Frosh, but we’re still discriminated against!” “Everyone says junior year is the hardest— but I beg to differ.” Freshman Foreshadowing “I love freshman year, but I can’t wait to be an upperclassman.” “I’m class looking forward to the close ties that a always develops by senior year.” Could this be a new teacher? No, It’s really junior Steve Duda. 101 Route planners The group of people to whom we look for guidance, discipline, and improvements is the administration. The administration at Divine Child consists of the pastor Fr. Kucyk, principal Sr. Chris- ten, and the deans, Mr. Wishart and Mr. Smetek. This small team has an enormous and dif- ficult job. They are responsible for keeping order and discipline, planning informative programs, tending to many small and large problems that are present, and simply mak- ing DC an effective place to learn. Administration—people helping people. “Hey! That danlsh is mine!” Katie Dubois finds out what it means to be called to the disciplinary dean’s office. 102 The mind of Mr. Smetek is often filled with complex math problems. Hmmm, the square root of four Our mild-mannered principal, Sr. Chris, turns into Super Nun when problems arise. She is faster than a runaway student, more powerful than a football star, and able to leap tall problems in a single bound. 103 CLASS COLORS CLASS FLOWER CLASS SONG CLASS SAINT CLASS MOTTO CLASS HYMN: CLASS MASCOT: midnight blue and cream white rose “Out There on my Own” from the Flashdance soundtrack St. Francis Xavier patron saint of foreign missions Yesterday is already a dream, Tomorrow is only a vision, But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a dream of hope. “Be Not Afraid” Garfield 104 Seniors: 1983-84 Student Council Craig Foster Class Officer Vice-president Sam Iaquinta Executive Board Treasurer Laryssa Kozak Class Officer Secretary Jim Fitzsimmons Executive Board President Karen Libke Executive Board Public Relations Ann Gapa Executive Board Vice-president Catherine Hodge Class Officer President Sally Faletti Executive Board Secretary Julie McGarvey Class Officer Treasurer 105 Geno Abate Mike Acromite Jim Agemy Carole Bach Terry Backiel Michelle Belczak Chris Bifano Lynn Baldwin Paul Blazo Kathleen Blazo Kathleen Bixler Hey Kool Aid!

It is 4:30 a.m. when Tracy Moore gets out of bed; her day has already begun. Tracy Moore, a senior at D.C., has a very special tal- ent—figure skating. Tracy first stepped on the ice at the age of eight and has been skating for nine years now. She has taken her gold figure test and gold freestyle test, and therefore she is on the highest competing level. Tracy has been in many competitions including national and international competitions, usually placing in the top three. Tracy has trained at many ice are- nas, starting with the Ford Woods here in Dearborn and recently at the Olympic Training Center in Broadmoor, Colorado. When asked about the satisfaction skating gives her, Tracy said, “It is be- ing the best I can be and not settling for anything less.” As for Tracy’s fu- ture goals, she says, “Next year I would like to make it to the nationals and see how far I can go after that. I want to be able to come back from an injury better than ever.” You may not see Tracy in the 1984 Olympics, but hopefully in 1988!! Olympic bound! Hopeful Tracy Moore finishes off another routine on her road to success. 109 Laura Iverson Ken Jacobs John Janosik Joe Jansen Jeff Julvezan no Brother, can you spare a dime?

His calm, almost shy manner made him just “another kid.” But if you real- ly knew Bernard, you also knew that he was far from being just another kid. For four years, Bernard has been training in the Black Master-Sphinx style of martial arts. “It combines the brute force of the Japanese karate and the flowing, artistic motions of Chinese kung-fu,” explained Bernard. ‘‘I’ve been learning from my uncle, Fernando Granda. He used to teach, but now it’s his hobby.” His uncle turned out to be a fourth degree black belt. After his four years (of the ten years of basics Watch out! Brown belt Bernard Sumcad and Phil Wong hold trophies that attest to their skill. needed before moving on to the next stage of training), Bernard has earned the equivalent of a brown belt. When asked about his goal, Bernard responded, “I want to go to the Philip- pines and face a panel of judges for my authentic black belt from the Grand Master.” To receive the belt, he must undergo a week of physical conditionings and tests before his final test: “You are put in a ring with multi- ple attackers with only head gear, chest protector and a cup. The object is to go with the flow, to remain cool.” He paused reflectively and added, “But that is a long way off.” Carmela Smyth Lisa Stachowiak James Stagg Karol Stanecki Dave Stanis John Stapel Tracey Stupakis Anne Suchyta Bernard Sumcad Kelly Sumerton 117 Shelly Thomas Michele Thompson Rick Tosto Todd Suspeck Susan Taraskiewicz Margaret Theisen No more—blazers that is, for seniors Donna Kempinski and Janine Misiak Chris Wagner Kimberly Ward Phil Wengrowski Karen Westenberg Julie Whalen 118 Llnnea Wojtas Maria Wolski Phil Wong Shannon Young Lynn Zakerski Matthew Abbot Ann Aleo Lisa Andreoli Theresa Andrzejczak John Bahr Nicole Barbour ’85 Shifts into drive The class of ’85 started the year off right by winning first place for their homecoming parade banner. “DC’s dream is Aquinas’ nightmare,’’ was their clever slogan. Overall, the juniors rated third runner up in the spirit week competitions. Soon after, came the excitement of ring day and the ring day dance. Junior student council members decided to go with an autumn theme. Many students enjoyed themselves and had a really good time. The junior class helped get into the Christmas spirit by decorating their hall and helping to decorate doors and other parts of the school. They came in as first runner up in the hallway decorating contest by festively draping red and green streamers in their corridor. Homeroom 114 won the first place ribbon for the best junior door. The class of 1985 is now looking ahead at what colleges they would like to attend and what careers they would like to pursue. This class truly believes in the school motto . . dedicated to excellence, spiritually, academically and athletically.” They want to maintain the fine tradition of Di- vine Child High School.

Duane played the lead male role in two of these plays. He was Mr. Frank in The Diary of Anne Frank and Lombard in Ten Little Indians. In Pajama Game, he only had a small role portraying Charlie. But that’s not all; Duane is a mem- ber of the Players Guild of Dearborn, which is a group of actors who put on plays. The Guild puts on one production a year. Most recently was A Christmas Carol, and Duane had a part in it as the Ghost of Christmas Present. “I love to act because it gives me a chance to get away and it’s unbeliev- ably fun,” says Duane. What he doesn’t like, are the long tedious hours of going over and over the same scenes and the boring chore of line memorization. “It’s worth it and I love the ‘flavor of the boards,’ ” he ex- plains. He says that making acting his ca- reer is a “distant possibility.” If not, possibly he hopes to become a surgeon. His other interests include the clarinet, computers, playing wargames and learning how to juggle. 125 Ann Osiecki Robert Ostafin Chris Ostrowski Jackie Palise Scherie Parsell Mark Parrinello Kathleen Peters Kathy Petryszak Joanne Petts Michael Prince Sergeant-at-arma Michele Prince Maureen Prior Thaddeus Prus Jeff Przybylo Paul Rakecky Pamela Read Walter Remski Julie Renaud Scott Richards Tracy Richardson Douglas Riddell Jill Rodman Richard Romeo Brian Roney Duane: Entering the world of make-believe Paul Roose Elena Roperti Christina Rowland Michelle Roy James Ryan Carol Rymas Mark Sabourin Paula Saliba Lynda Sancricca Peter Santeiu Anne Schaefer Edward Scheff Ed Schramek Karen Schreiber Timothy Scott Anthony Senatore Kristi Seprino Michael Seurynck Yuri Signori Evelyn Slowik I CLASS [ OF ’85 Proceed with caution: Artist at work! How would you like to be a junior in high school and get paid for something you love to do? Eric Novak has accomplished that by becoming a cartoonist for Slap Shot magazine. He has been working with them since they asked Mr. Foye to help them find a replacement for a vacationing artist in September 1983. Eric also does cartoons for the D-sCene and Curio; he is the art director of both. Each cartoon takes him about 1-V6 hours to complete, and the time adds up when he has as many as five to do! Although Eric spends a lot of time drawing, it doesn’t interfere with his school work too much. Yet he does admit, I’m an expert at procrastination!” Having started drawing at the age of five, Eric has progressed from water colors to oil paint and ink. His only art classes have been taken at DC. He takes his work seriously, and definitely hopes to become a commercial artist or cartoonist. Who knows! Maybe someday when we’re reading the Sunday funnies, we’ll see the name Eric Novak instead of Charles Schulz! 126 Juniors set cruise control, ace third year John Sokolik Cheryl Stechschulte Pat Strilecky Mike Stislicki Dan Suffredini Kimberly Szankin Michael Szuba Carol Taraskiewicz Maribeth Tarczynski Donna Ternes Correspondence Secretary Christine Therrian Mike Thibodeau Ellen Thomas Mark Tomilo Jennifer Topolski Michael Toth Russell Tovar Debbie Trainor Treasurer Maria Tringali Laura Unwin Timothy Vella John Vrabel Patrick Wagner Mary Watson Paul Wenson Linda Wiercioch Mark Wieser Ed Wieszkowiak Mary Wilson Colleen Wolfe Theresa Wolski William Wood Melissa Zelek Richelle Zonca Vice-president II 127 Ann Abundis Robert Ambrosi Steven Andreoli Cheryl Assenmacher David Bach Christopher Bak Brien Baker Julie Baldwin Jeffrey Barszcz Colleen Beaudoin Carol Berkowski Kim Bertram Lisa Bielak Stanley Bizek Dave Blaskiewicz Gary Blaskiewicz John Bolger Shana Bondareff Susan Bixler Mike Bonkowski Cheryl Borzymowski Don Bottorff John Boyk Chris Bustamante Qno Caing Carmen Canales Michael Cascardo Cathleen Cassisa Anne Cavanaugh Robert Cepko Sophs EXCEL-erate Throughout the year, the sophomores participated in a lot of major projects with the whole student council. Demonstrating their EXCEL-erating spirit, the sophomores captured second place in DC’s first calendar drive. Cruising on into the year, the sophs sponsored the Sadie Hawkins dance. A Magical Evening in the Land of Make- Believe was more than the theme for the dance. Couples had an unimaginable time dancing to the trendy music played by Chris O’Brien. Reminiscing, Liz Shea explains why she liked being a sophomore rather than a freshman. “Freshmen don’t know anything about anything. When you are a sophomore, you’ve got a whole year behind you.” With all the changes taking effect, Molly McGinnis joking- ly commented on the new co-ed homerooms. “I feel sorry for any guy who has to be around me that early in the morning.” As the road narrows, class president Amy Currier feels that “our class has a lot of friendships.

Dancing, modeling, and acting all appear to come easy for her, but in reality it’s a lot of hard work. Brenda has had six years of dancing school and one year of modeling. Last summer, Brenda went to Washington to compete in the national MISS CHARM competition. In Novem- ber, she participated in a regional com- petition. This event earned her four first place ribbons in acting, dancing, modeling and runway modeling.

However, a typical weekend for Steve Karas would involve going to rabbit shows to show and sell his Polish rabbits. He receives trophies and cash prizes for his winning rabbits. Steve has been breeding rabbits for approximately one year now. He started out with one rabbit, kept as a pet, and eventually ended up with ten Polish breeding rabbits. Each day, when most of us are still asleep, Steve gets up at 5:00 a.m. to feed and take care of his rabbits. Then he gets ready for school. It takes about 1 Vi to 2 hours daily to work with these rabbits, making sure they don’t get sick or mean. Steve uses his rabbit breeding as a hobby and a good source of income, making 15 to 30 dollars for each rab- bit—occasionally 40 dollars. “I guess I like it because I’m interested in veterinary medicine, meeting people, and making friends,” said Steve. ‘‘I hope to be breeding them for meat someday, but I don’t plan on making a career out of it. It’s just a hobby that gets me away from everything.” 134 Gary Smolinski Brenda Smoter Mark Smutek Mary Stagner Mike Starosciak Ava Strakovits Michael Sullivan Scott Szymusiak Ronald Targosz Pamela Tarys Robert Tatro Patricia Thomas Christine Toth Daniel Trainor Denis Trapp Michelle Tricoff Rayna Trudeau Christine Tucker Sophomores get set to shift into third gear Jill Twehues Susan Vaughan Sharon Vondrak Janice Waldorf Diane Ward Mike Wernimont Tom Westemeier Paul Wojciechowski Thomas Wong Julie Wood Patrick Wood Linda Yesh Holly Young John Young Darryl Zammit Kevin Zitny Stephen Zurawski Darlene Zweng 135 Lisa Abdullah Trisha Aitkens Corcne Amato Susan Bacigal Michael Barbour Michelle Bartnicki Freshmen: start up! The freshman class of the 1983-1984 year has become an active part of Divine Child School. During spirit week, they were surpassed only by the seniors in showing school spirit and overall support. They also attended the “Get Acquainted” dance at the beginning of the year. Although they did not come in first place in the collection of Thanksgiv- ing baskets, they donated much for the needy. The freshmen led the school in calendar sales to support the school’s Alum- ni Club, for which they received a free day. The annual freshman card party was their major fund raiser. In view of their efforts, our freshmen have shown their willingness to be- come an integral part of the D.C. community. When asking some freshmen why they attend D.C. High, David Guerriero replied, “I feel I am given a better education here than I would be getting at another school because of the excellent academic and moral standards.” Steve Szuba stated, ‘‘I attend D.C. because, knowing that the faculty and the stu- dents work so well together, I am able to achieve the highest standards possible.” Christy Hamilton said, ‘‘I attend Divine Child because of its great reputation.” Cheryl Bartys Linda Baughman Damion Bazner Thomas Bidigare Julie Bifanc Luigi Bitonti Mike Blaszkiewic2 Mario Boccarossa Vice-president I Michelle Borchanian Michael Borg Shari Bosman Stacy Bourlier Maryann Breault Jennifer Brostek Tami Brozek Far out, Chris Nersesian and Sheila Strakovits!

Olympic hockey team—Gordon Husted!” Hearing those words would be a dream come true for Gordon Husted, Look out Steve Yzerman; here comes Husted! whose all-time favorite sport is hockey. He enjoys watching and playing a variety of other sports, but insists that hockey is number one. “It’s exciting, fun, and there’s lots of action!” he claims. At the age of 4, with a little push from his father, he was introduced to hockey and has been playing ever since. Right now, he is the goalie for the “Michigan Chargers” in the peewee di- vision. He first played a year as defense, and then switched to goalie because “it’s more challenging and it’s the best position on the team—there’s a lot of padding so you really don’t get hurt.” For 1 to 2 hours, every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday, Gordy’s team either competes against another team or endures another practice session at The Ice Box. Evidently, their practice has paid off. The Chargers have won the State com- petition once and have come in as the runner-up several other times. Just re- cently, they won their Christmas tour- nament and are now the 1 team in their Bantam AA League. Gordy says that he sometimes gets nervous at big games. “Being goalie is a big part, because if you make a mistake, your team could lose.” He expects to move up next year to the next league division — Midgets. “I’d like to go into pro-hockey,” he says, “but you have to be pretty good.” 138 Nancy Hammond Leanne Hatty Gordon Husted Emilia Iaquinta Amber Isaacs Gary Janssen Freshmen: New kids on the block Nancy Kenney Theresa Klask Pamela Klein Cassidy Koch Patricia Konchal Karen Konopatzki Patrick Kosowski Danielle Krall Keven Kramer Karl Krill Rachelle Krochmalny David Kubicek David Lesz Robert Lewis Diane Lokar Charles Lougheed Kirstin Lurtz Peter Lynch Dominic Mac Amy Majors Kimberley Malec Kathryn Manos Dina Marchetti Julie Mardeusz 139 Charity Marks Public Relations Gregory Marquardt Kristen Marsh Jon Martichuski Ann Marie Martin Elizabeth Martin Cathryn Mazur Debra McCorquodale Mary McCuen Marcy McFee Joseph McGinnis Nicole Mentley Michael Meyers Monica Michalski Keith Mikonczyk Joann Miller Gina Monteleone John Morgan Michael Murray Matthew Nagi Chris Nersesian Christine Niebuhr Susan Nissen Vice-President II Mark Novak Dave Oberstaedt Patricia O'Donnell David Ogarek Thomas Ozog Class President Michelle Paduch Lisa Pegg 140 Freshmen start up on road to success Cathleen Peitz Kendal Phillips Theodore Poli Natalie Polidori Thomas Progar Kevin Pydyn Virginia Read Lisa Rellinger Loretta Remski David Richards Brenda Riddell Maria Rivera James Roggenbeck Christine Romeo Michael Romeo Joseph Roperti Carla Rotole Frank Rubino Lisa Ryber David Rymas Kathleen Sarb Rosemary Scerpella Greg Schaefer Patrick Scheff 141 Freshmen approach end of new challenge Robert Shurmur Michelle Simms Jennifer Skwarski Mary Slater Marc Smoltz Marie Soraghan Carmela Spadafora Mario Spadafora Peter Speer Barbara Sroka Catherine Sroka JoAnn Stagg Deborah Stanley Theresa Stapel Dan Stechschulte Kevin Stoops Sheila Strakovits Steven Suchyta Robert Swider Steven Szuba Linda Ternes Joseph Terry Scott Thomas Franca Tiano 142 Tricia Worrall is ice skating her way to the top “Hockey is just a great fast game that is a lot of fun to play,” says Tricia Worral. For the past three years, Tricia has been the left winger on the Garden City Pee-Wees hockey team. The Pee- Wees have made quite a name for themselves. Last year, they even went undefeated with a record of 25-0. Her first year on the team, Tricia was elected captain; that year they became the state champions. From there, the team went on to Lake Placid where they took third place; Tricia was cho- sen as the most valuable player. The second year was almost a car- bon copy of the first. Tricia was captain and the Pee-Wees captured the state championship. Then they went to Boston for national competition and there the team acquired second place. This time, too, Tricia was honored as the most valuable player. This season Tricia is assistant captain. She has been looking forward to continued success for the team. 143 John Townson David Tomilo Melanie Tricoff Lori Twehues David Unwin Margaret VanHouten Anthony Vella Dennis Vogel Daniel Wadowski Gail Waldorf Kristin Wells Pamela Weston Ellen Wiland Karen Williams Shawn Williams Scott Willis Jennifer Wimaatt Treasurer Rose Wojciechowski Patricia Worrall Kenneth Wydick Thomas Zakerski Anthony Zakolski Diana Zammit Donald Zaremba Dedicated staff strives for self-improvement Bonnie Adler Guidance Counselor Sr. Annuncia Librarian Jacqueline Bacus English Vic Balaj History Lydia Baron-Klask English James Bergman Music This year, the teachers experienced a new program initiated by the school administration. This program occurred in November and was suit- ably named an in-service day. “It was a very informative day and we received the opportunity of hands-on-experience,” was Sr. Cecilia’s opinion. “The program was very worthwhile. I just wish we could have done it for more than one day,” said an industrious Miss Kilcullen. Mrs. Karen Pritchard made the following com- ments: “I have a strong disvalue for computers and I think their usefulness is highly overrated.

John Walker Math Robert Wr .lewski Social S'udie Guidance zooms in on individual student needs Career choices, college, personal prob- lems—those are a few of the many things our counselors help students with. The guidance department is constantly aiding individual students’ needs. Not only do they develop programs to benefit stu- dents, but they’re now starting to com- plete these programs with follow-up ses- sions to get the parents involved. This year, a four week substance abuse program was instituted for the students. The purpose was to raise awareness lev- els and provide information about sub- stance abuse. It dealt with redirection and positive goal setting for all those affected by such abuse. “The guidance department has as one of its goals to meet individual needs of students. This would include substance abuse information, career information, college information, and schooling,” com- ments Mrs. Adler. High school years for students are ones in which many important decisions are made. With the help of our counselors— Mrs. Adler, Mrs. Gates, Mr. Rivard, and Mrs. Romback—decisions can be ones of knowledge and careful thinking. As students start choosing careers, they can use the help not only of counselors, but of reading up on their interests. Sr. Annuncia, the librarian, helps students find books, magazines and other necessary pieces of literature in the library. She has been a librarian all her life and has been at Divine Child for 17 years. Sr. Annuncia adores various types of literature and thus decided to become a librarian. The guidance and librarian staffs en- courage all students to take advantage of the many learning opportunities offered. 148 Decisions, decisons!

With the addition of hot food and such delicacies as hamburgers and french fries, the students were no longer subjected to brown bag lunches or month-old burritos from machines. A number of sandwiches, soft drinks, and piz- za are now offered as well as the old favorites, milk and ice cream. Half way through the year, a change was made, replacing soup with the Falcon burger, made with two patties and special sauce. Look out Mickey D’s!

Maureen Majors March 23, 1946 to April 17, 1984 173 Celebrate ’84 Summer’s here; school is out. Classes are over, but the construc- tion process for the next year goes on within the school during the ap- parent break. Memories are many; dreams sought, goals attained. There is an infinite amount of things that never got done, but will be there to build on to for the future. Life goes on, as the old cliche says, and simultaneously do changes occur. We cannot ignore them, nor should we want to. Change is the basis of growth. As the years go on, may we fulfill the goals we have set here and now. Let 1984 be remembered as the building year and as the rebuilding year. Jump! Jubilation and joy are certainly displayed here by Karol Stanecki on graduation day. May 20, 1984.
