Spartan Club Enthusiastic parents and supporters of Immaculata give of their time to assist as members of the Spartan Club. The organ- ization sponsors education and entertain- ment in the course of the year and launches and sustains money-making proj- ects. Members willingly work at conces- sions and ticket taking for athletic activi- ties each year, and funds from the treas- ury will provide new football uniforms for the l970 season. l Events staged by the club include the yfourth Annual Boxing Tournament and lthe Spartan Club Dinner. This year in response to student request for a rock lconcert, the adults initiated the Mountain y and Stone the Crow appearance in March. An outgrowth of this parents' association is the newly-founded Alumni Club.

Pep Rallies Spirit is the key word for Immacu- lata, 1970. Football and basketball games are sparked by pep rallies that never fail to arouse all the enthusiasm six hundred sixty-one teenagers can generate. Starting off the grid season came the event that set the pace for the year. During the Spirit Week each year had its own color to display on all posters, banners, and lapels. For five days the classes tried to outdo each other in demonstrations of support for the schoolg then all four united in a culminating pep rally. Standing ovation is given to meritorious football players led by Fullback Ralph Pascale. Enthusiasm and optimism are primary elements mingled to promote school spirit, as seen by anxious seniors awaiting the start of the first rally to initiate The Year of the Spartans. aegi s 5 isll,iJ?K K' sat

For four i'it years the MAGNIFICAT has been rated first place by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and Catholic School Press Association. In truth, the driving force that keeps the students moving is the influenceliifof Sister Im- maculata Mary, l.H.M., who sets an uncom- promising goal and demands perfection.
