Kennedy, United there is little we cannot do . . together. Through their sharing of knowledge, ideas, and experiences, these young people become cognizant of the generosity which should be theirs and which will, hopefully, materialize to provide them anti their fellowman with greater happiness. Tin's generosity is characterized by the scholastic and extracurricular programs available. Tliesc activities arc indispensable examples not only of giving, but also of receiving, not only of disappointment, but also of pleasure; not only of hart! work, but also of reward 4 Each student l truly an individual - is unique, he i� himself- Hr is given the uptx.f nuiity to rccogniyc that Hfe Iras creative tal ents, that he has the freedom to find what those talents might he. nd that he has the encouragement to make them bloom forth c«. better serve him anti his neighbor. Each prudent tui his limitations simply because he is human — by himself he can do only jo much arkl no more. By combining his uniqueness of personality and talent with other people, the student joins an awesome group — a community in which die limits of die individual arc 6 The chain of unity is strengthened by the divine iron links of communication: communication between students and neighbors, communication berween students and God. The communication may take the form of leafing through a book, showing the world a genuine smile, or whispering a simple prayer. Relating to takers is not aSways that «StUy — no one said it was It cakes work — it takes Cooperation — it t=� kcs humility. Tint fritting is an experience by which the students get to know intimately each ocher. They study, cat, walk, talk, share disappointments and good time together By finding common interests. The students not only consider the present time when forming a community, but also the future The means by which they may help their fcllowman becomes the main concern of the students, although that futuristic approach may be camouflaged by the work, the fun, the disappointment, the reward trior 12 13 The community that they have formal u thus not just a mass of people having fun together, hut a working community, a helping community, a sensitive community, a Christian community. The students have achieved a goal that seems to become more and more distant and impossible for the world today — for they have united, 14 Urmi Leaves Ctrrtll $ ! ♦ I id Bishop Joseph G. Vath Is Interested in Youth Our Bishop Joseph G. Vath. D.D., is in his fifth year as iIk spiritual leader of more than fifty tltousand Gatliolics in the Diocese of Birmingham in Alabama. As chief teacher of his people. Bishop Vath has a vital interest in the spiritual growth of each individual student of John tlarroll High School. His interest is actively shown each year by his celebration of the Mass of the Holy Spirit with members of the school community We appreciate Bishop Vath taking time out of his busy schedule not only to instruct us but also to listen to our views on certain pettment topics This interest and willingness to listen on the pan of Bishop Vath shows the confidence he places in young people, and this is truly a Sign of Hope. Monsignor William R. Houck Enjoys His Work Monsignor William R Houck is the Superintendent of Schools and Secretary of Education in the Birmingham Diocese. As supenntendent and secretary, he is the chief administrator for twenty-six schools with 6,500 students. He, along with the principals of the schools, is responsible for arranging the curriculum and instructional materials. Monsignor Houck is also the President of the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools He was elected by the members of this association in 1973. Monsignor Houck enjoys working with people and says that education is exciting since its primary concern is the renewal of life in the society in which we live Catltolic education, he remarks, strives to ensure the personal growth of individual students, teachers, and parents. In rise context of Giristian philosophy and ideals, Monsignor assumes positive leadership in the development of a solid faith community: one that bespeaks the message of Christianity. This Gospel message is building community and serving others as Christ served them ” Administrators Work Hard to Mr. William J. LaPlantc. principal of John Carroll High School, was appointed by Bishop Joseph G. Vath, D.D, of rise Birmingham Diocese. Mr. LaPlantc is truly cooperative, dedicated, and sincere in his position of principal. He is cooperative in that he works closely with the Diocesan Office of Education, with the State Department, and with the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. His cooperation is also obvious with the members of the John Carroll community. He is dedicated to the philosophy and values of Catholic education as is exemplified by the high standards set by the curriculum. These standards lead to the over-all Christian development of each individual student. Mr. LaPlantc is sincere in his faith and is a good example of this at all times He is also sincere in his concern for the well-being and interests of each individual and constantly encourages him to strive for higher values and goals. His cooperation, dedication, and sincerity are an edification to the whole school community. Promote Christian Community Reverend Michael Sexton, the assistant principal of our school, has the special qualities of generosity, patience, and spintuai leadership. Generosity is particularly noticeable in his giving of himself and his time by aiding the principal, teachers, and students Patience is Certainly evident in his official capacity as disciplinarian of the school. This duty not only necessitates individual conferences with students, but also group study hall after school. likewise, patience is a visible characteristic when checking absentees since individual parents must be contacted for verification of absences Spiritual leadership is obvious in Father Sexton's beautiful morning prayers over the Public Address System. In addition to the prayers, his participation in student liturgies by concclebration is certainly an exemplification of his spiritual leadership. His sermons at these liturgies are truly inspiring for the whole school community. With Father Sexton’s presence, everyone is consciously aware of this year's tlicmc — CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY. The modular schedule of John Carroll is a rather complex system! It requires patience, insight, and. most importantly, a mathematical mind Sister Dominica Rigotti. the school administrator, has all these qualifications She arranges the schedules for students and teachers as well as the mod-time for different schedules such as morning activity and early dismissal. She also revises all schedules which need class changes. Sister Dominica can be commended for the small number of class conflicts during the school year She has worked continually to maintain a balanced modular scheduling. A personal note about Sister Dominica is that she enjoys all kinds of athletics but her first love is mathematics. John Carroll certainly owes its thanks to Sister Dominica for all the years, twenty to be exact, that she has worked for this school and its students.

To achieve these goals, the officers. President Roderick Wilmorc, Boys Vice-President Mike McOnhy, Girls Vice-President I cbbic Milton. Secretary Judy Creagan, and Treasurer Julie Me A leer, plan, organize, and help carry out the necessary projects. The major activities were the reorganization of the cafeteria, the initiation of Intramural Sports, and the renovation of Homecoming proceedings.

Intramural Sports was first started by this year's Student Council as a ness1 way of bringing the students together. Volleyball games were held every Thursday night and awards were given to the winning teams The Homecoming Most Spirited Class competition was handled in a way that assured that the best class would win. Hall decorations, 100% banking, and collections for the poor were some of the many contests. Another proper of the Student Council was the acquisition of a new water fountain for the second floor. Lemonade and iced tea sales were conducted during lunch mods to raise the needed money. One of the jobs of the Student Council was the organization and publishing of the Student Directory and Handbook. Much time and work went into gathering the names, parishes, street addresses, and phone numbers of Teresa Triob.

Under the leadership of Jack Sacco, President; Margaret Bcucrlcin. Vice-President; Leah Mackin, Secretary; and Eileen McCarthy, Treasurer, the Honor Society has participated in such activities as Career Day. College Night. Service Awards Presentations, and Junior and Senior tappings. An amendment in the National Honor Society Constitution removed the fifteen percent limit on the number of students to be tapped, designating that a larger number of students may be inducted as long as they meet all of the qualifications.

Tournaments have been held at Huffman High School, Jefferson State, and Samford University. The club members plan to attend the state convention at Auburn High School in Auburn, Alabama. As a result of the involvement in tournaments by its members. Mu Alpha Theta is different from most clubs in that it is not established solely for fund raising. A vivid example of involvement has been seen in Michael Varagona, who has been nominated for outstanding Math student of Alabama Mu Alpha Theta, led by competent officers and backed up by involved and qulaified members, is a confident and united club not only at tournaments, but also at John Carroll, where it co-sponsors a grade school math tournament to introduce capable eighth graders to high school life.

Individual events like extemporaneous speaking were outstanding assets of this year’s team and for the second year in a row John Carroll won first place in the state for dramatic interpretation. In debate itself, the 1973-74 topic was Resolved: that the Federal government should guarantee a minimum annual income for each family unit As simple as this may sound, each affirmative team had the option of interpreting the topic in its own unique way. Accordingly, the debates centered around such issues as dental care, private pension plans, the energy crisis, public housing, nutrition and child care as well as the obvious Mary Ann Bahakrl and Gabriel Mellett xarch the debate I ilea (or a needed reference The Debate Team Mia Oitti Volant n (moderator).

Travel this year was highlighted by a prestigious invitation to Barkley' Forum at Emory University in Atlanta. If John Carroll participates once more and docs well, the team should obtain a chair in the Forum. Also, performances at such tournaments as Mars Hill. Samford, Enterprise, and University of Alabama enabled John Carroll for the first time to be affiliated with the National Forensic-League. an organization which encourages high quality debate. Undoubtedly, the enthusiasm and hard work of the debaters plus the sincere support of all the students and faculty at John Carroll produced a truly memorable debate year 53 Pitrice Moon-.

Under the leadership of moderator Miss Elizabeth Brown, the Spanish Club has been able to realize their goal of bringing students into closer contact with the language, customs, and people of spanish-speaking countries. In the process of carrying out this goal, many programs were instituted such as tutoring Spanish students, putting up colorful bulletin boards, and maintaining the language lab and the language resource center. A great deal of work, also, went into the planning and preparing of a Spanish booth for tlic International Fair held in the John Carroll gymnasium. The cakes and candies sold at the booth were made by the club members and all the proceeds went to charity. Of course, the Spanish Club is not all work. One big social event was the dinner held at F.1 Palacios.” Throughout the meal, the club members were acquainted with different exotic foods and soothing Spanish music. jHoIa! Que pasa?

Despite the rumors that have been going around, a student docs not have to be in a Ckrman class to be a member All he is required to have is an interest in Germany and its customs Among the many activities of the club arc the candy sales that go on throughout the year. However, these arc not just ordinary-sales! The German Club members sell an unusual treat called Gummy Bears, candy that comes directly from Germany, and, according to some members, cannot be successfully copied by U.S. factories. They also sell raffles on German liouses similar to gingerbread houses. The club members participated in the International Fair by selling German cuisine made especially by themselves. Mike DcCarlo and Jimmy Bailey enthuMistkally xcpte-tent the (Vermin Club at open houie They even received a first place award for Best Club Float for the Homecoming parade. Tlic float was a giant Beerstcin mack of paper flowers It took much time and effort to produce this award winner Do not get the idea, however, that belonging to the German Club is all work and no play. The members plan such fun activities as an old fashioned German party where they dress in any costume they want and cat differ- ent German foods that they prepare They also attended an Octoberfcst held by the downtown German Club. The purpose of this festival is to celebrate fall. German members from all over the city attended and entertainment was by a German band By working together as an united group, rhe German Club has definitely made people sit up and take notice.

Under the direction of moderator Miss Hilda Horn, it performs various kinds of plays each year for the benefit of both spectators and participants By these plays, a student is given a chance to use his talent, whether the talent be in acting or in the various kinds of crew-work. The first of the two comedies that were presented was THE EGG AND I. based on the real adventures of Betty McDonald. Leads were Leah Mackin, Michael Contorno, Sher-rce Schaefer. Lianc Rusnick. and Michael McCarthy. This play made history for John Carroll Dramatics. The tradition on the stage is to say Break a leg to wish performers good luck. Leah Mackin nearly did. She sprained her ankle so badly thirty minutes before the curtain on opening night, that sire had to give two performances on crutches. The second play.

John Wells, Janet Accino, Kathy Evans. Cathy Meehan, Mary Esther Brocato. and Calvin Sledge. Without the many different committees which work hard behind the scenes, the plays would never have been produced. The functions of the make-up and costumes committees are to portray the reality of time, place, and character, and the mood and meaning of a play. Miss Tlicresa Flanagan, moderator of the make-up committee, and her crew. Polly Eitzen. Cathy Yester, and Paula Dcason. succeeded in their function in THE EGG AND I and M A S H Miss Ann Conway, with the help of Janet Accino and Kathy Evans, found the costumes for both plays. The purpose of the properties committee is to aid the audience in perceiving the rime and location of the play. Mrs. Toney Hankc. along with J. E Avrard and Susie Henning, were able to locate enough props to make flic play's successful. Another important committee is the publicity committee Its members must use every means available to inform the public about the play.

A very vital role is fulfilled by the members of the stage crew. Its members set up and arrange the stage They help change scales during the production. Mike McCarthy. Tom Pilkerton, Tim Pilkcrton. David Sullivan, and Wheeler Flemming, (who straightened nails and gave moral support), did very well during both plays. The stage lighting crew has several important purposes which are visibility, mood, time, and special effects. Although these four things are often difficult, they arc of extreme importance to the effect of tlie play on the whole. With such dedicated workers as John Pilman. Michael Pilman. James Talley.

As a reward for all their hard work, outstanding Dramatics Club members arc inducted into the International Thespian Society. After a student has worked at least one hundred hours in Dramatics, (and has worked on at least two plays), he is eligible for membership in the Thespian Society The Thespians work internationally to promote dramatics in high schools. The Thespians sponsor such activities as workshops, clinics, scholarships, and recommendations for outstanding students.

The members go to scheduled classes and receive a grade for their work. However, the Chorus is not all work. It is fun, too, if you enjoy music. This year’s Chorus was directed by a very capable and talented man, Mr. Dan Carusa. Having a love for music himself, Mr Carusa interested his students in all kinds of music. They sang songs from Burt Bacharach. Broadway shows, and many more popular hits. The activities of the Chorus included singing at the school Masses. They, also, planned a P.T.A Concert. Although their number was small this year, Mr. Carusa was not discouraged. He looks to the future for bigger and better chorus groups.

The Cavalier's value lies in the fact that it is written for and about the students at .John Carroll. It is the athletic events, social happenings, editorials, jokes, and short stories that make the Cavalier what it is today. Its value also increases when we realize that it is the only one of its kind in the world. But the Cavalier newspaper docs not just happen by itself It comes about through the hard work and effort of the dedicated and talented staff Since the beginning of the school year, the staff has been steadily improving the Cavalier by adding new articles such as the Sportlirc, the movie reviews, and the Perfect Student. The overall quality of the newspaper has also been improved by the new techniques of working instituted by the staff and their moderator Miss Ann King Instead of having different editors, managers, and reporters for each newspaper edition, the staff now elects one person to each post, and he holds that position all year This new system and the new moderator and staff have been working well together, and, as a result, the Cavalier newspaper has become one of the most widely read documents in John Carroll.

This is evident in the results of the football games. Under the direction of Head Coach James McNally, the coaching staff, which includes Coaches Kenny Gonzalas. Robert Hayes, Billy Hamilton, and Jack Walden, produced the Bat AAA football team in the state. While Coach McNally worked with the offense and organized the coaching staff. Coach Hayes successfully coached the defense and Coach Gonzalas handled the receivers. Coaches Walden and Hamilton worked diligently with the B-Tcam to produce a fine group of young Cavaliers. Besides their work during the football season, their duties of coaching basketball, baseball, track, and golf, continued into the summer.

Pat did what few people today seem to be able to do — he lived No. not only living in a biological sense, but more emphatically, living in a spiritual and eternal sense Pat knew that life on earth is too brief for wars, struggles, arguments, or even frowns. With the example of his life, he taught this lesson well. His smiling face brought the reality of Ckxl's presence to all; this child, always so close to death, yet always so full of life! The theme of Pat’s life was joy and the joy of Pat's life was people. Pat loved all people He once bought a box of tricks so that he could cheer up sick or depressed friends. Pat not only lived, but also gave life. Pat chose the happiness of another over self-pity, just as Jesus Christ did. Although Pat was not tall in stature, he stood tall, proud to be alive and to be on this earth with other men. If his ringing message, that of life, could be heard and understood by all men, then man would be able to find happiness and contentment in life. Pat was serene, introspective, playful, talkative, generous, jovial, serious, friendly, loving, seldom angry, and always exuberant. He was crowned by God with a glory that set him apart from all others, and this glory enriched and blessed all who knew him. for if Pat Triola is not a saint, then there are none 161 The feeling of community at John Carroll is strong. Students show in countless ways their care and concern for fellow students, for teachers, and for members of the community at large who need their help. When the March of Dimes asked for student support in the Walkathon, John Carroll responded three years in a row with award-winning participation. John Carroll students volunteered their services to the Red Cross supply line for tor- 162 nado victims. On Saturdays, other John Car-roll students worked teaching religion to retarded children. At Christmas and Thanksgiving students donated food, gifts, and money so that needy families could share in their holiday happiness. For government class, students who chose to do so worked at Mercy Hospital or tutored children at parochial grammar schools. Within the school students also displayed their willingness to be of service The National Honor Society maintained a tutonng program, and various organizations combined their efforts to clean up the school during the summer carpeting the library and resource centers. Many other students contributed time and effort to make activities such as Homecoming, the Queen of Hearn I ancc, the Prom, assemblies, and morning announcements more enjoyable To provide the Student Body with a newspaper and yearbook, teams of students worked long, hard hours. Students also planned meaningful 164 66 liturgies throughout the year and organized services for special holy days. These examples of community spirit are only a few of those that could be named if space permitted. But these serve to illustrate vividly the existence of Christian values in the John Carroll community. But even more reflective of the students' awareness of the Christian ideal of brotherhood than these more formal, organized projects are the often unnoticed, everyday occurrences in the hails, classrooms, and resource centers. A student having difficulty in a subject could easily find someone in the resource center willing to help him. Students often helped teachers grade papers, and made learning much easier by their willing participation and interest in the classes. But the strongest 167 and most encompassing indication of this Christian spirit is the atmosphere of acceptance and cooperation present in the John Carroll community. If a student makes a genuine effort towards becoming interested in and involved with others in the school, his concern is always reciprocated. He finds with few exceptions that the students fie comes into contact with arc truly good people who add their own unique talents in innumerable ways to better school life. No student with the proper attitude can fail to perceive the general friendliness or the sense of mutual understanding and cooperation of the majority of the students. The student at John Carroll has an excellent opportunity to become acquainted with a great many students and to help others to the best of his ability so that he can become a better person. Although students make up the largest part of the John Carroll community, they arc by no means the only part. The faculty members are particularly essential in the shaping of Christian principles and practices A primary reason for the development of a successful community at John Carroll is the dedication and concern of the teachers When students are able to establish relatively informal relationships with their teachers while know- ing that the teachers work for the students, care about their progress, and appreciate their efforts, the entire community benefits. Teachers receive the be« work the students arc able to produce, and students can leam in a stimulating and hospitable environment. The administration also affects the community greatly by setting the tone of student attitudes Even though clashes between the students and administration are inevitable and do occur, the students at John Carroll are given an immense amount of freedom to determine mr 169 in what way their community will develop Accordingly, the students do participate substantially in the life of the community, and arc to a large extent responsible for its success or failure. Therefore, even with all of the qualities existing in the John Carroll community, the students should never cease striving for more perfect Christian brotherhood. Ordinal Newman expressed this challenge beautifully when he wrote, It is pleasant to live in a day when the tide is coming in. Such is our own day; and. without forgetting that there arc many rocks on the shore to throw us back and break our advance for the moment . . . still we may surely encourage ourselves by a thousand tokens all around us now, that this is our hour the hour for great hopes, great schemes, great efforts, great beginnings ... a new era seems to be at hand...” 170 171 JOERUMORE’S RECORD RACK 2827 South 18th Street Homewood Records — Albums Stereo Tapes Free Parking in Front and Rear Mail Order Service 174 iJ($e r)2eAtau?ant 2321 4th Avenue North Birmingham, Alabama 35201 Ernest E.

We planned it, built it, and sent it to the press. Our very hearts and souls went into its making because we wanted it to be the very best. We worked every Tuesday and Wednesday of the year and sometimes late into the night and on weekends. We joked and cut up a lot. but all tl� c while thinking of ways to improve it. Layouts, copy blocks, cutlines and headlines soon became harder to do for our best efforts were continuously put forth to meet each deadline with an improved product. But the staff managed to meet each challenge with renewed dedication and maximum effort. We had our squabbles, though, and at times were discouraged. But determination, good sense, and friendship lifted our spirits to carry us on as a team The co-editors were responsible for the quality and character of the material used. The staff responded with tireless labor to help make the job easier. Even after graduation, devoted members returned to work eight to ten hours a day on their book. Much has been learned this past year by all of the staff and much will be remembered. We believe our book is the best. It is the culmination of our BEST efforts. It is the staff's book. It is our gift to you t-' Co-Editors 200
