FEBRUARY “The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts ... the Knave of Hearts ... stole those tarts and took them clean away. When one thinks of hearts, he thinks of February, the month of love. On February 13th. the CSMC held their annual Queen of Hearts Dance with Ann La Russa and David Kirkwood as Queen and King of Hearts. Air Band '88 kept students on the edge of their seats as the Bangles. Bob Marly and the Wailers. BonJovi, and Foreigner performed on February 5th. On Fcbrcuary 12th, the faculty faced off against Kicks 106 in a basketball game in which the faculty won. Not only was February filled with fun events, such as the ones mentioned, but it was also a time of spiritual celebration as we began Lent. At Mass on February 12th, Father Timothy Hill distributed ashes to the student body and faculty. This month also saw an exciting Recruitment Day for pro- spective students on February 16th. This day was followed by Open House for prospective students’ parents on Sunday, February 21 st. The King of Hearts called for the tarts ... the Knave of Hearts brought back the tarts and vowed to steal no more. (until next year) Bottom right: Kristin Baggio. Brooke Lawler, and Lori Lovoy make a beautiful trio of reggae singers. 10

March During the month of March, there was a multitude of activities for the John Carroll students to enjoy. The Juniors had their ring ceremony, the Sophomores had their retreat, and all had the blood drive and exams. There were also the usual assemblies, such as the one in which Rev. Jim Kelly from Covenant House spoke; the one sponsored by the Young American Showcase, in other words The Edge ; and the one in which the St. Mary in the Woods choir performed. But of all the ac- tivities, AEA was by far the best. Next, our humble students entered the month of April with Night on Broadway, a show that should not have been missed. By far, the most educational experience was the Speakers Forum. It featured such things as snakes, astronomy, oceanography, and leg- ends. From the educational to the entertain- ing. John Carroll experienced the return of Woodstock. The International Fair followed this exciting dance and showed the variety of cultures at JC. The highlight of April was the prom.
