E 1011 CLASS HISTORY Four years ago we seniors began our lives at Joliet Catholic High School. We were green then, as green as any freshmen could be. But it wasn't long before we became adiusted and be- came a part of the student body at Catholic High. The year passed fast for some, slowly for others, but by June we were finished with the first year. We had begun the climb toward grad- uation. Behind us, with no regret on our part, was freshman Latin, woodshop, algebra, English, social studies, and general math. In September most of us were back as sopho- mores. We settled down to Latin ll, geometry, metal shop, and Julius Caesar. During that sopho- more year, some of us were making names in sports at the Hill. Fellows like Gil Pluth, Carmen DiGiovine, Carmen Astorino, and Tom Briese were becoming prominent in football. By mid- year Fred Dedin was on his way to become one of Catholic High's great basketball players. When spring rolled around, Terry Fitzgerald, Mike Koer- ner, Bill McCanna, and Tom Briese led the Frosh- Soph Baseball team to a 9-0 season. Frank Mores and Jack Nevin were key men on the varsity golf team in their Sophomore year. They were members of the elite JCHS golf team that won the State Championship. Dale Peters and others ioined the Victory Light staff. They wanted to make the school paper one of the best in the state. The summer went quickly and in the fall we returned to the Hill as iuniors. We had laughs, and fun, troubles and setbacks, moments of glory and days of success, and nine months as iuniors. In the iunior year we had class elections and 36 DiGiovine, Astorino, Funk, and Dedin were elected. We played our share of sports and helped the baseball team to a 16-3 record.- Some of the iuniors were in the Band-Ron Ariagno, Rich Hulina, Darrell Langlois, Ron Francikovich, and Ron Fox assisted the Band to a superior rating at the State Music Contest. Other juniors were in the Chorus. Fellows like Rich Stefanich, Frank Nedlo, and Tom Meyer were singing to its tune. As juniors we held our first prom and titled it June in January. The new term began and we were finally sen- iors. This last year was a year so filled with studying, working, and extracurricular activities that it passed almost too quickly. We will always remember the library periods with Brother William, the endless line of seniors who wanted to see Father Thaddeus in order to get out of physics, the way Father Barry con- ducted, Father Cyril's iokes, Father Mel and his iug slips. We will also remember Co-Captains Fred Dedin and Ed Stonich on the basketball court, Victory Light co-editors Larry Sak and Dale Peters, and the senior prom-our last social whirl under a desert tent, the palm trees, the bearded ushers- Heavenly Oasis. Our lives at the Hill were enriched with learn- ing, knowledge, and understanding of life's pur- pose and aims. We can say good-by to the school, its students, and its teachers. We have completed our four years at the Hill and now we can look back at those years and be proud that we belong to the Joliet Catholic High School Class of 1960. X Y I ,fi if , S . I'-. T? ii-Sr?

The first half ended with no score as the Hillmen held the Porters three times inside Catholic's 5-yard stripe. Chris Vancura, Lockport's quarterback, broke loose and galloped around left end to give the Porters a 6-O lead in the third quarter. Catholic came back in the fourth as Gil Pluth blasted over for the score. Astorino's kick put JC ahead, 7-6. Vancura led the Porters to another score and a T2-7 victory.

Joliet Catholic 6 O 14 O 0-14 Assumption 6 ssss,, .s,,,,,,s 7 6 2 6 O12-20 The homecoming spirit and the hope of snapping a losing streak spurred The Hillmen to a 14-8 halftime lead.

Joliet Catholic O O 0 O-O Champaign , T3 7 T3 i2-45 From the opening kickoff the Hilltoppers knew this was not their night. Champaign showed why its eleven is noted as a perennial state football power as the Maroons completely overpowered the Hill in a 45-O triumph on their home turf. Joliet Catholic O O O O-O St. Procopius ,,o,,, , O O O OfO Hilltop football fortunes seemed to be dependent partially on the weather and the number of breaks the gridders could muster. At Lisle, neither one of these factors came through. Extremely cold weather and a series of bad breaks stopped Catholic High. The contest ended in a O-O tie. The deepest penetration was made by the Redwings who came within feet of the Hilltop goal only to be stopped by the stubborn White and Brown wall. St. Procopius Game: Halfback Nick Slimack heads for end zone, but is stopped by Proco Schlerman Game: tackle. With an open field Bill Grey races down field for a first down.

Carmen DiGiovine added the final tally on an inter- cepted pass deep in enemy territory. The victory gave JCHS a final record of two wins, six losses and one tie. 72 f 'WE' ixiffiyr 5 . , if 5 5: if Q. K S A M Q. Ri f f? fi fps 1 37' 1- -f v . H Af?

The Religion department, under the direction of Fr. Casimir Zielinski, O. Carm., conducts a varied pro- gram. With special emphasis on devotion to Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, the program includes daily Mass and Confession, monthly bulletins, and mission col- lections, retreats and days of recollection. In close cooperation with the counseling program, the entire faculty assists in giving Hillmen a firm basis for living their faith in the future. A new feature of the religion program was the celebration of the Church Unity Octave in January at St. Mary's Carmelite Church. The Religion department cooperated with the Carmelites at St. Mary's to present Mass in various rites: Roman, Carmelite, and Byzantine. The octave consisted not only of Mass but special in- structions in the sacraments and liturgy. Bishop McNamara signs the proclamation for Catholic Youth Week as representa- tives from Catholic High, St. Francis, and Providence look on.
