Will '69 Lions Top League By Ken Seguin '69 If quantity and quality go hand in hand then Redeemer ought to be on its way to having a great team. A large number of Freshman boys have participated in the school's athletic pro- gram this year, including the gridiron, the court, the track, and the diamond. The Freshmen have several purposes in coming out for the various teams. They hope to help restore Redeemer as one of the great football powers in the league competition. They wish to help the team retain their basketball reputation, to earn a varsity letter, but most of all to come out and have a good time with their friends. Two incentives that these young ath- letes have that might be mentioned are the Goodfe 110w Game and the Big House. So beware St. Ambrose and Servite! The Lions Sixty-Niners are on the way.

First, your seniors will be giving you ample opportunities to purchase various conveniences and advantages.

Elevator passes can be purchased at the economicalprice of twenty-five cents or two for fifty cents. Swimming pool passes will be on sale but are good only on the first and third Wednesday of September and January.

May 31, 1966 SENTINEL 13 'The Timesi They Are A-Changin By Gregory Zak '68 There are many people throughout the land, Who criticize what they can't decipher, Have Sophomores fit their neat category Of things they just can't understand? Butwhat in the world do we really care9 It won't be us that'll get gray hair. A call went out from My Fair Lady, Askin' us for our help. Response we made - we sold the most, Not merely once, but a - twice. We were atop from the very beginning, And we never were surpassed. Maybe we get the most demerits, And our marks are not the best; But we've got somethin' in our favor, Somethin' that our uppers have not: We got two more years a - comin', Two more years to reach the top! Now school spirit is a thing of question, Of who's got it and who doesn't. Basketball games we did attend and We came to many and we came in first. The JV trophies the school now shares, This is part of the spirit we have. The future holds many-a-thing and Right now we're training for our life. All that we really want to do Is graduate from this high school place. Then we can walk in outer space and Witness truth with every race. The chimes of freedom are ringin' now And soon we'll be able to help them sing With the deeds of the greatest Sophomore class, The Sophomores who will never run. We will be there actin' as one -- The mighty class of '68. These are the sophomore members of the National Honor Society. Bottom row: Bev Broniak, Terry Gallagher, Mary Abela. 2nd row: Anna Marie Wilson, Betsy Mahon , Sandra Pomicter, MargaretMalone, Linda Rykwalder. 3rd row: Mary Sue Gallagher, Gregory Zak, Joann Melcher, and Patricia Pryzbyla. Sophomores who have excelled scho- lastically were awarded a probationary membership in the National Honor Society at the annual Induction Ceremony. Membership in the Society is based on Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. To rate scholastically sophs have to maintain honor roll marks, and a B average in personal traits. If they are able to maintain their high scholastic average, they may become active mem- bers in their junior year. Christine McGuire, Vivian Fenech, Brenda Kalisz, Kathleen Schema, Peggy Haggerty, Dennis Wasik, MaryAbela, and Bev Broniak work out some sophomoric ideas. Where are the rest of the boys, Dennis? Have they left you to the mercy of the soph girls? In order to qualify as a candidate, a member must be endorsed by his home room teacher, who must make a state- ment about the student's qualifications and personality marks. The moderators of the clubs, or ac- tivities in which the candidate partici- pates must also make a statement about the candidate's qualifications. The times may be a changin' but ex- cept for varying programs for induction the standards for admission into the Na- tional Honor Society are essentially the same as they have been for years. By Margaret Malone '68 C'mon, everybody join in, Everyone's doing it! Well, I won't! I am perhaps but a cell in an organism, A thorn of a bush, A page in a book, But I am ME An individual A self My self. I am a piece of a puzzle! Small, puny, inferior but lose one piece of a puzzle And what do you have? A picture with a hole in it. I fill that hole. I complete the picture I am ME.

nAay 3L 1966 SENTINEL 15 And Some Pages From a Year of His Life A Freshman Class By Karen Schulte '69 Tune: Surrey With The Fringe On Top Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, all scurry, When we come down the hall in a hurry, Skipping, jumping, and running at the greatest speed. Watch our papers see how they flutter, When we drop our books and we mutter, Listen to us as we stutter cause we're late for class. Sometimes we take our Latin books on the day we ought to take our Spanish, And leaving our lunch in our homeroom desk, Is a good way to have it vanish. At the end of the quarter we'll have a test, We will slave and study to do our best, Then school will be over and we'll leave en masse, But for sure we'll be back next year as the Sophomore Class. Freshman Monoes A senior saved is an enemy earned. IfIhave only one life to live, let me live it as a Freshman. A stitch in time saves '69. Dare to be different--walk 0n the wrong side of the hall. Y1, W33; Freshmen discuss freshmen, and other leading characters in literature. From left to right: Patricia Taraban, RobertMurray, Kathy McCarthy, Ilene Novak, Janet Conway, Ilene Soroka, Claudia Polski, Michelle Karl, and Robert Stevens. Everybody Get Stoned! By Christine Markey '69 According to Bob Dylan everybody must get stoned. We have all been hit by little pebbles that did not do too much damage. But stones come in all shapes and all sizes. Some stones leave wounds that penetrate deeper than the skin. Group discussions in freshman classes lend zest to the reading and give aid and com- fort before. tests. Left ro right: Angel Garcia, Christine Markey, Ricky Zamojski, Patricia Carmack, Phyllis Holtyn, Frances Losoncy, Therese Henri, Bill Kish, Vicki Fenech and Kevin Keveny, look on as Ken Seguin prays to his Guardian Angel. Apoor man is stoned by a rich society that keeps on telling him he will never make it because he is not in the right financial bracket. A colored man is stoned when he is continually told by a so-called superior white society that his skin is not a good shade for success. A manwho loves his country and free- dom is stoned when he is forced to give up his democratic ideals for the folly of a power-struck dictator. These are the big stones that cause pain and bruiseaman's mind, heart, and will. However, old wounds heal in time and the pain becomes harder to remem- ber. But all wounds need ointment to prevent infection and promote healing. Love is this ointment. IS GOD DEAD? By Patricia Carmack '69 God is dead! Is He? If so, when did He die? Who is God? St. Paul gives us the an- swer. God is love. Therefore, if God is love, love is dead. So, in order to decide if God is dead, we must ask our- selves if we still love. Is there one person on this earth who can still cry when someone is hurt? Is there one man who wants to give his wife and children the best? Is there one person who will do a fa- vor for someone simply to make him happy? If so, all this controversy about God is a waste of time and breath. If not, God is truly dead.
