How appropriate that a high school be named after an explorer because each of the LaSalle students are exploring their own worlds every day. They ask themselves questions that are buried in textbooks, among friends, within their bodies and con- sciences. Questions like . . . Is what I ' m doing right? Why does Atticus defend Tom Robinson? Should I go out for student government? Am I going to Noble Romans after the game? Who am I? What am I going to do after graduation? The answers can be found, but only with the next day of exploration. Never forget to keep striving for goals. As LaSalle learned and LaSalle students must also, success does not come in achieving a goal, but on the road along the way.

Different stu- dents choose different ways to spend this time. Senior Dave Baker uses his extra time for swimming and study. Sophomore Sharon Kedik goes to the stables. I horseback ride, she replies. Sophomore Tina Lewellen goes inside to spend her free time, I go bowling on Thursday nights. Even freshmen Angie Ma- giera gets into the act by hanging out with friends. Some don ' t have enough free time to be able to horseback ride, bowl or to be with friends. Sophomore Ruth Milcherska bluntly stated, I don ' t have free time. A lot are just too active in school and extracurricular activities for outside free time. Be- ing involved in so much, I find it hard to get enough time for myself, sophomore Nancy Whitesell agreed. You always need time for yourself to do with as you wish, so Lions don ' t forget how to spend your free time.

This is a question Michael Le- Sure asks himself everyday, as do many other students. Well to answer Michael ' s question along with the rest of you, studying is the act of gaining knowledge. It ' s something you have to do in order to get any- where in life. Now one asks, How do you study? There are various methods of learning that are used everyday. In the English classes, SQ3R is taught to the students. Senior Oscar David comments, I go home and read as a way of learning. Ruth Milcherska uses her study hall to get done in, and senior Dave Baker uses the old trick of do homework and review it. Some students like to skip study- ing altogether, but that, as we all know, can lead to failure. As LaSalle students, take pride in what you do. Lions should never forget how to study. Upper Right Senior Tyrone Howell uses his school time wisely and works hard to get his assignment com- pleted. photo by Will Tieman Left Junior Alan Holt does some of his studying during class while another student is less motivated. photo by Will Tieman Above Studying doesn ' t only happen in school as Kath- leen Gorman and Betty Banasiewicz work hard on lay- outs at Manchester College during Josten s yearbook camp. photo by Mrs. Hilliard Opening Section Don ' t Forget z: Top Expressing yourself in drama can lead to more outstanding things.

LaSalle Lions who are in the middle of activities release the question Re- member When ? And remem- ber they will. Sophomore Steve Plonka will always remember the pain he experienced when he broke his leg in the Adams-LaSalle foot-ball game. Senior Kim Phillips will always remember the first time she tried out for cheerleading and made the squad. Freshman Mimi Mark will al- ways remember the way she felt walking through the doors of LaSalle for the very first time. Junior Cather- ine Watson will always remember the first time she got a first place in swim- ming. All of these are memories. Happy, sad, painful, and victorious. No mat- ter how they make you feel the memories are yours to keep forever. How To Study How To Roar n 7 z V A £ . 4 How To Work Many high school students today have paying jobs for various reasons. As senior Dena Gamble has put it, I work for something to do. Or like sophomore Patty Brien said, You could use a job to develop special skills you may need in a future occu- pation. Junior Brian Colson took his job so I don ' t have to keep bugging my parents for money. A good enough excuse for junior Tony Taylor is sim- ply, It keeps me out of trouble. It doesn ' t really matter what kind of job you have or why you have it, just don ' t forget, Lions, how to work and to work well.

It ' s something that is done everyday. There are different ways to spend your play time. Senior Patricia Wright uses her playtime for musical purposes. I dance, sing, and play records. Freshman Tonia Bradley replys, I use my playtime talking to my friends. Junior Tina Powers spends her playtime with groups of people to an individual. I go to par- ties and go out with that special someone. Freshman Danny Brassell shows his school spirit I go to foot- ball games. From football games to dates, La- Salle Lions will never forget how to play.

All the students of LaSalle are in- dividuals and most of them express themselves differently. Freshman Denise Manner and senior James Fowler share expressing themselves through music. Junior Scott Hibbs, and freshman Dennis Douglas find themselves through sports. Expressing yourself is an outlet that will be used throughout all your lives so don ' t forget how to show who you really are.

A 14 Opening Section Don ' t Forget One More Night soon came into reality for many couples when the junior and senior Prom of 1985 was celebrated at the Athletic Convoca- tion Center Concourse on May 4. Events leading up to prom at nine o ' clock, were the buying of flowers and gowns, the renting of tuxes, eat- ing dinner and the taking of many pictures. The ' 85 prom goers carried out the theme of One More Night well by making the prom continue into the weekend with their after prom parties, going to breakfast, to the beach and to amusement parks. With the pastel colors of a rainbow drapped throughout the room, the couples danced off into a dream world they wouldn ' t soon forget. Top The beginning of One More Night starts with hand shakes and hugs as Jack Gillean, Russ Buysse, Staci Chambliss, and Kelly Coffman can tell you. — photo by Root Photographers Right Even though Kim Huss is in an evening gown she is still preparing for One More Night by decorating the Hall for the evenings events. — photo by Root Photographers Top Lucina Moore is overwhelmed to find three gentlemen asking her to dance.

Prom -A. 1- ' z V $ £ How To Begin Again A As the class of 1985 stands before the applauding audience, they are re- minded of memories of the past twelve years. Under the watchful eyes of par- ents and friends, the graduates filed across the stage to receive a smile and a handshake from Dr. Hudson and school board member Olga Villa Parra. Diplomas in hand, these young men and women begin their future with mixed emotions. One sees hap- piness, relief and saddness in the gra- duate who will never forget his friends and the good and bad times at LaSalle High School. 16 Top These graduates of 1985, Jennifer Chlebek, Lisa Caufman, Ray Carlson, and Rhonda Lee Campbell sit and try to picture their futures. — photo by Root Photographers Left Robbie Armor shows appreciation of his new found freedom after walking out of the auditorium with his diploma in hand. — photo by Root Photographers Right These ' 85 graduates stand up proud and tall for the last time as a class before they step out into their adult world, going their separate ways. — photo by Root Photographers Opening Section Don ' t Forget z The four years we spend at LaSalle are going to leave us with many memories. We all will have special memories of our favorite times here, but no matter what facet of school we like best, the basis of LaSalle is academics. The reason for attending school is to learn. Realizing that we are all indivi- duals and our educational needs are all dif- ferent, LaSalle offers a wide variety of classes. Of course, there are the major subjects, English, math, science and social studies, for our journalists, mathematicians, scientists and historians. However, for the future art- ists, there are several different art classes, for the singers there is choir, for the musi- cians, several bands and an orchestra, for the secretaries and the business orientated, business classes and coops. In the high school experience there are things we won ' t forget, can ' t forget, or would like to forget, but academics we must not forget.

A joke has been told and an uproar of ha ha ha ' s explode. I have to laugh. would be the reply of sopho- more Keith Szgmanski. Often funny, embarrassing, humorous, and even hilarious events take place at La- Salle. These events never go unnoticed for someone is always near no matter how ridic- ulous you may appear. Falling up the stairs was one of senior, Cynthia Mayer ' s amusing mishaps, she states, I was going up the stairs and I fell. Everyone was laughing. All my friends were cracking up. Remembering slipping on the ice sopho- more David Behling chuckles about, The day right after finals I slipped on the ice and all my folders fell out of my spiral note book. Some crack-up, some are rollin ' and oth- ers are dying at their over come laughter. A stretch of junior Richard Brown brought on a freaky feeling when he passed out. Yet, he exclaims, It was as funny as beep. 18 Student Life L.H.S. At Its Best o It Is Going To Be Another ne Of Those Days Early morning and the alarm blares you out of bed. You ' ve already pushed the snooze button five times and now there ' s only 20 minutes left until the bus comes. Decisions! Decisions! What to do first? You ' re in a state of panic because you know if you miss the bus that you can ' t wake your mom one more time to take you to school. Should I eat breakfast and just bumb- out today or should I try to look decent and risk having my stomach growl in first hour? Senior Tawana Jeter replies, It happened to me this morning. I got dressed and did my hair. I had to put my makeup on at school. You finally make it to school after an early morning rush and realize you have a big exam first hour, and you though you ' d be able to catch a few Z ' s. You ' ll have to put that off until next hour. The worst day for Senior Angela Beres was when, I had a cast on my leg and I fell on a guy. He fell too. As the day progresses so do the tragedies. It ' s going to be one of those days. With the stress upon tardies, it ' s vital that you make it to class on time, or else it ' s Whitney Young here you come. The school day ends and on your bus ride home you visualize crashing in bed as soon as you reach the door. However, you open the door to a mountain of mess, a family feud and a home sweet home.

At It ' s Worst 19 T, On The Move ransportation Getting from one place to another is crucial to the lives of LaSalle students, whether it ' s from home to school or the basketball games to your place or mine? Determination at a precise time motivates students to flag a taxi, hop a bus, nag their parents or slip on the walkin ' shoes. For whatever means of transportation, the price is always high. A taxi these days runs $1.50 up front as a drop charge and another $1.00 per mile. Senior Debra Dickerson states, I took a taxi only once and I won ' t do it again. It was so expensive for just a short little ride. Sometimes doubling as a school bus or mom ' s taxi service, Transpo South Bend ' s mass transit system is another way to get around town. Freshmen David Hemig re- plies, Transpo is alright, there ' s nothing wrong with it, and freshmen Susie Brown adds, It ' s just another way of getting some place. When all else fails grab the most com- fortable pair of walkin ' shoes. Above Four wheels are not the only means of transportation: two wheels are better than none. — photo by Robyn Holy Right Having a car isn ' t all fun and games as these people have found out.

It was Friday, Sept. 13, 1985 homecoming, M.C. Elston was the opponent. The Lions were hoping for a victory, not really ex- pecting one but a little hope never hurt anyone. The game started, there were tackles, running, and throwing, as in any football game. When the final buzzer went off LaSalle had lost 0-31, a dejected team walked off the field. That night there wasn ' t the usual crowd at the Lions favorite haunt, Noble Romans. It wasn ' t because they had lost the spirit or faith in the team, nothing will ever destroy Lion Pride. That night in the Lions Den there was a dance and the kids were having lots of fun and groovin ' to the latest tunes. Although LaSalle lost the football game, they didn ' t lose their pride or their spirit or next year and these are the key ingredients to winning a football game.

Red hearts, candy, flowers? How about a basketball game? This years homecoming game against MC Elston was played on February 14. Although Elston defeated La- Salle 70-54, there was still much excitement to be had. During the half time junior Will Tieman and senior jSharon Chlebek introduced the 1986 homecoming [court amid rounds of applause for each couple. In the stands there were the typical rowdies with their bags of confetti to the amusement of some and the jannoyment of others. It ' s ok to a certain point but when they start throwing the real little stuff it bothers me. coments sophomore Lura Grontkowski. Losing the game wasn ' t the only disappointment the Lions suffered. Many of the students were let down by the fact that we did not have a pep assembly. Freshman Denise Hanner claims, We should have had one. They get our spirit up and they get more people to come to the games. There was aso a change made in LaSalle ' s homecom- ing procedure. Instead of having spirit week held all in one week, this year was was decided to hold it on [various days. It began on the Friday of homecoming, lending on the day of sectionals with the traditional red and black day. Through change and disappointment the Lions stood tall and our pride shown. It is unlikely MC Elston will forget that.

Pep assemblies have always been a tradi- tion at LaSalle High until last year when they were prohibited by the Indiana State Legisla- ture. The incoming freshmen of ' 84 were greatly disappointed by this banishment. Sophomore Chris Johnson states, I thought it wasn ' t fair because all the other years had them.

Student Life Pep Assemblies Lions Don ' t Quit; Overtime Over six long grueling hours of school make up a Lion ' s scholastic schedule. Yet, many students cannot get enough of LaSalle High. At 2:55 the final bell of the day rings. People are swarming every- where. A few run out of the building to leave in their car or to catch a convenient bus. A great number of students, howev- er, are only scurrying out of sixth hour to attend one or more of their extracurricu- lar activities. Such activities which require an imput of overtime are yearbook, swim- ming, cheerleading, and drama as well as other sports and clubs offered by LaSalle High School. Junior Brent Crawford has to put in an extra one and one half hours for band three days a week. This does not include the time he dedicates during his scheduled class of band. They Go Into Reasons for staying after school are not limited to only sports and clubs. Stu- dents may stay after for use of the school library on Tuesday evenings and the open door of room 110 for everyone ' s typing needs on Wednesday evenings. Along this same line, after school is a primetime to make-up missed work. However, it is not always for academic or extracurricular reasons that students remain after the final bell. Some, like Chris Johnson, stay for detention. It seems Chris had been rather talkative in Mr. Berebitsky ' s math class. Whatever the reason, staying overtime is part of one ' s high school experience, even if it is just to stick around. As junior Letitia Beckett put it, I was just watch- ing the wrestling team.

Chefs, cooks, waitresses, and hambur- ger floppers busily prepare for the days lunch. LaSalle High students have a 35 minute break or lunch hour to do as they please. Most choose to eat either in the school cafeteria or at the local fast food restaurants. Some, however, run home to grab a quick snack out of the frig. Yet, there are a few like soph- omore Neil Wack who use their lunch time as a study hall. LaSalle ' s library is a great place to do last night ' s fifth hour homework. With sources ranging from Popeye ' s Fried Chicken to mom ' s home cooking to the varied menu at LaSalle ' s cafete- Burp! ria, students have many options in pleasing their palates. The cafeteria provides a hot meal course, a soup and salad bar, or Lion Power to Go for the junk food junkie. Senior Rhonda Cleary said she ate in the cafeteria because I ' ve always ea- ten in there. It ' s hot. It ' s a good meal. Yet, sophomore Rob Carrol eats at Noble Romans because I don ' t like cafeteria food. Many of the local res- taurants are occupied by the LaSalle Lions on their lunch break.

Early man may have grunted at each oth- er to get their message across. As they developed, so did their language. After a time, methods of writing were developed so ideas could be preserved and passed around to many people. Means of communication are continu- ously advancing and LaSalle students are not ones to be left behind. Alexander Graham Bell ' s invention of 1876, the tele- phone, is perhaps one of the most popu- lar. On the average people communicate about sixteen hours a day. Approximate- ly three hours of this is spent on the phone. As junior, Sandy Tirotta, put it, People basically love to talk and when they can ' t be with other people, talking on the telephone is the next best thing. Even the telephone is being continuously improved. Now you can hook it up to your com- puter and call other computers. Dennis Fuller explains, Computers can send in- formation around the country at thou- sands of characters per second to another computer. Communication is not limited to the spoken word at LaSalle. Passing notes rivals the telephone. Vital information on who went out with who, how your hot date Friday night went, or how you did on the major Physics test makes its way up and down the rows and back and forth across the room until it arrives at its final destination.

Although seasons as a whole is a broad topic, each one has its own indi- vidual characteristics. Not only does Mother Nature have a great involve- ment but everyone else does as well. For instance, junior Kathy Grose shov- eling the heavy wet snow or the senior Jennifer Suter preparing for the April prom, or Jack and Lisa Gillean sun- bathing with friends at the edge of their pool. The life of all revolves around the rotating seasons. Seasons come and seasons go, but the fun will never end. Starting with winter, numerous indoor and outdoor activities present themselves with the cold weather and snow. Junior Tracy Damp said, I like to go snowmobil- ing. Skiing, tubing, ice skating and snuggling by a cozy fire are other win- ter time favorites. For Spring, the baseball and softball diamonds fill with people, the bikes break out and the track is beaten to death. The most awaited season ap- proaches as the school doors close. The long pants are ripped off and the shorts are thrown on. Summer time is here! Families head for the lakes, spending endless days at the beach. Sophomore, Dawn Hershberger, likes summer because, I like to go shop- ping, swimming, bike riding and stuff like that. Another summer lover re- plies, In the winter you can ' t go to the beach or anything. Fall arrives too soon as usual and the school doors re-open. Yet, junior Richard Damp ' s favorite season is fall because, It ' s not too hot, it ' s not too cold. It ' s perfect.

If nobody was there for you when you needed them. Friends are an essential part of life. According to the Webster dictionary, a friend is the one attached to another by affection or esteem. Freshmen, Wendy Temple adds, A friend is always there for you. You can share good times as well as bad times with them. Often, people have many acquaintances, but only a few true friends. Acquaintances are people you merely greet and exchange a few words with. Friends you are much closer to. You can share your deepest, darkest secrets with them. Senior Julie Ghysilinck claims, in a friendship there is trust and honesty. There are different kinds of friendships. Some people have one best friend and may- be a few other friends. Others prefer to have a small group of close friends who form their own clique. To a few, friends are whoever happens to be around. According to senior Troy Mireles, If you go somewhere and find a friend, there is always something to do. 34 Student Life Friendship High school is often associated with homework, books, lectures, and headaches by kids who have not yet made it to high school and adults who have forgot- ten. Although we certainly couldn ' t leave these factors out if we were to describe the life of a high school student, there is much more to add. At least seven hours and ten minutes of every week- day in a students life is spent in school- Despite this fact, LaSalle Lions usually find a way to fit in many activities outside of school. Friday nights ar awaited with anticipation for they mark the beginning of the students weekly two day vacation. Popular events for spirited Lions to attend are the football and basketball games. Although LaSalle didn ' t do very well this year, both sports had their moments In football, winning our first game against Washington, on Friday the 13 no less, was a boost to our spirits The win in basketball against our St. Joe Indian rivals was exciting too. When poor sports records got too depressing it used to be kids would go cruising with their friends on the strip Now more often than not, these kids find them- selves cruising to OFF THE STRIP for a night of super- vised, dance entertainment. The Lions at LaSalle often put in many hours over- time, whether it be the long hours of practice for a school production, on your favorite sports team or in one of the several other organizations. Many of the organizations here at LaSalle would not be possible if it weren ' t for the extra hours put in by dedicated stu- dents. The seasons pass rapidly, leaving many memories behind them. Memories of pep assemblies, friendships and snowball fights. Memories of good and bad times. Memories we will never forget. ncfiAcnsUt KATHLEEN GORMAN - EDITOR ANDREA SCHWEIZER DEBBIE McCLANAHAN The American Expression Words are the keys to communication which unlock future, past and current worlds. At LaSalle, attempts are made to teach its students to express themselves us- ing standard English rather than whatever form happens to be in vogue at the moment. During the freshman year, the basic fun- damentals of writing and understanding lit- erature are taught. In sophomore English, public speaking, composition, literature and reading are em- phaszied one each nine weeks. I believe one of the strengths of the English depart- ment is the sophomore English program be- cause it covers four different areas; speech, literature, reading and writing. commends Mr. James Wright. The juniors basically work on writing es- says and reading novels. Currently, senior English focuses on writ- ing research papers and reading European literature but is not required. However, be- cause English is fundamental to reading and writing, the Indiana State Legislature in- creased the English requirements for gradu- ation from six credits to eight. The class of ' 89 will be the first to be effected by this new plan. ,- ' Sophomore Tony Fennesse gets the scoop on what his computer can do. — Photo By Root Photographers Sophomore Jennifer Marshall makes use of the time alloted in her English class to finish the required 200 pages a week. — Photo By Root Photographers In todays world, the knowledge of computers and how they work is necessary Juniors Keith Mahowski and Todd Wood acquire this knowledge in their English computer class. — Photo By Root Photographers English Academics Aany different forms of speech are learned in sophomore English.

Photo by Root Photographers English Academics MATH IT ALL ADDS UP Math has a major role in the everyday lives of all people. A day never goes by without using some sort of math, anywhere from measuring out a cup of flour in a rec- ipe, to the complicated equations of an engi- neer. Because of this face many students chose to take three or four years of math instead of the required two years. At LaSalle, teachers attempt to prepare the student for the world of math. Mrs. Hei- derman feels the importance of her class is, to show them (students) how mathematics is really involved in everyday life and can be used in unique job situations. Some students need extra help in catching on to the endless mathematical laws, theo- rems and concepts. And since math is a much needed skill several helpful courses are offered. Mrs. Raymond is proud in knowing that I ' m helping some student learn basic skills. Skills that they ' ll be able to use years after leaving LaSalle High School. School is not the only place that you will find math stressed. Many students will find upon entering the job market after high school that they wished they would have taken that extra year of math. Often the reason given for a student to take math is they need it for a future job, although this can be a very good reason it certainly isn ' t the only one. According to Mr. Perry Scripter of H R Block, If you don ' t know math it is practically impossible to fill out a tax return. He further adds, A knowledge of geometry and algebra is often helpful when figuring out how much of a deduction you can take from your taxes par- ticularly in small business. Junior Gail Hampton states, Math is a good learning experience because it helps you learn numbers and their properties. Opening the door to success, Mr. Guikema opens the books of geometry. photo by Root Photographers Mr. Woodruff helps senior Valerie Witulski with her program, while juniors Carrie Hold and Sean Decker seem to be well into theirs. photo by Root Photographers m -- y to 4.4 0 i - 7 f- 7 « 38 Math Academics Ed Zielinski, senior, demonstrates the proper proce- dures in doing his advanced calculus problem. photo by Root Photographers Above Mr. Mike Kiernan explains to Mrs. Raymond ' s class how to subtract hours, minutes, and seconds. photo by Root Photographers What ' s behind a students mind is always a big question but the question here is what ' s behind freshman Bryan Sigh ' s book? photo by Root Photographers Math Academics 39 SCIENCE Solutions For Tomorrow Almost everyone can find a field of sci- ence that interests them. The reason for this is because science covers such a broad field of human knowledge. The staff in the sci- ence department attempts to broaden the students field of knowledge here at LaSalle. Often advantages in science are taken for granted. Simple everyday things such as eye glasses, clock, TVs, and cars would not be possible if no one studied and learned about science. One does not have to plan on becoming a scientist to take a chemistry, physics, or biol- ogy class. Many careers today require a thorough background in the sciences. Such careers include: Medicine, engineering and mathematics. Although biology, chemistry and physics are the three major sciences at LaSalle, they are far from the only ones available. Astron- omy, wildlife, earth science and human anatomy are just a few of the many other sciences that students at LaSalle may choose from. Not only will a science course help you in college or a ftrture career, but as Mrs. McKibben states, it helps you learn how to find out answers to questions and problems. This includes knowing how to ask questions, how to use references and how to logically search for solutions. Knowing that in Chemistry, measurements must be pre- cise, senior, Julie Grontkowski, studies her scale to find the exact weight. photo by Root Photographers Senior Alan Thompson doesn ' t think the maze he made shoud go to waste so he tries to train mice to go through it in Science Research. photo by Root Photographers Science Academics upper left Guest speaker, Mr. Lane Geyer, shows off the proper holding technique of a hawk to Mr. John Bogucki ' s wildlife class. photo by Root Photographers upper Big things happen in Mr. Larry Cox ' s physics class.

To many, history is just some class full of dates, documents and dead people. According to Mr. Gilbert Cipriano, the study of the past is not simply a list of ' dead ' facts, but real ' flesh and bone ' . Documents are also very important in the study of history. Take, for instance, Lin- coln ' s Emmancipation Proclaimation. With- out it, the use of slaves might still be prac- ticed. Our knowledge of dates is also a necessity in the study of the past. Dates prove that history repeats itself. An example of this is The American Revolution against the kings, The Russian Bolshevick Revolution against the czars, and the current South African Revolution against the apartheid. Not only does history teach you about the past, but sociology, one branch of the histo- ry department, teaches students about group relationships that they ' ve had, are having and will have as long as they live, states Mr. Jack Disler. To me, history opens a door to a whole new world, the world of the past, states sophomore Lori Hill.

Academics History 43 CHOIR SINGING IN THE HALLS Aside from the basic courses offered at LaSalle, there are also classes offered for the talented group of singers. There are three different choirs, the mixed choir, and the LaSalle singers. They give many performance at school as well as in the community. Some of thes are at Me- morial Hospital, The University Club at Notre Dame, Grandparents Day and at the Christmas Program. Many of these students will use their tal- ent just for their own personal enjoyment. I got involved in choir because 1 really enjoy singing, replies freshmen Jenny Douthart. Some students go on to sing in the communi- ty choirs. A strong foundation in music gained by singing in an excellent choir, like LaSalle ' s, remains an encouragement and an inspira- tion to keep singing in a community choir, states Mr. Conrad Damion who also sings in the South Bend Community Choir. These students put in many after hours practices. Not only must they memorize the songs, but many must also work on dance steps. All of this is a lot of hard work and dedication, but in the end, it all pays off with a great performance and a couple of curtain calls.

Orchestra Musicians Of The Future Along with the basic courses offered here at LaSalle, we also have one for the musical- ly inclined, orchestra. Most of these students have taken lesson after lesson and spent hours practicing. But in the end, it all pays off. This talented group of students perform in several different competitions and play for LaSalle ' s musicals, plays, and special presentations. Many of my students have become mu- sic teachrs and performing musicians, states Mr. Fisher, the orchestra instructor, but no matter what, they all become intelli- gent, discriminating music consumers. Orchestra has made me aware of the different types of music and really appreci- ate it for what it is, replies sophomore Kim Szczechowski.

An Academic decathalon has swept through the country. It was all started in Orange County, California as a local compe- tition by Dr. Robert Peterson. In 1979 the decathalon expanded to the state of Califor- nia, by 1982 it was a national event and in 1985 it came to LaSalle. As in a sports decathalon, the academic decathalon has ten events. There are six academic events: economics, English litera- ture, fine arts, math, science, and social stud- ies, three communication activities: essay writing, interviews and speech, and the Su- per Quiz. Assistant principal, Stella Batagiannis, brought the decathalon to LaSalle last year after going to Merriville, to the first aca- demic decathalon held in Indiana, and talk- ing to the principal there. I decided it was something the student body of LaSalle need- ed. People in sports are recognized, it ' s time for academic achievements to be recog- nized. she replied. Dr. Batagiannis showed the idea to the faculty. Interest rose. Mrs. Judy Ladd and Mrs. Becky Hartman began serving as coaches and the plan was under way. Any junior or senior is eligible to partici- pate reaardless of vour G.P.A. Decathalon medal winners: bottom Jim Minnie, Ther- easa Katona, Trade Taghon top Joe Mack, Paul Fred- erick, Steve Birkla Upper right Mrs. Rebecca Hartman rewards one of her students with a tall glass of orange juice after a hot competition.

Rotten food, and mold spills all er your clothes. It ' s bad enough that the me has just stained your favorite pair of ins, but what would you do if you found t that garbage — some a lot worse than rmal everyday waste; some strong enough eat a hole through your jeans — had been your drinking water for six months, caus- j sickness, cancer, headaches, vomiting, ergies, dizziness, and other side effects to u and your family. To many people today,  y aren ' t just wondering about it. A team of six sophomores, meet at least ce a week at 6:45 a.m. to discuss the oblem of hazardous waste along with the ach, Mrs. Patricia McLaughlin. This is just e of the problems they face. The team is ' en a subject commonly discussed as a oblem today. They then head to their local raries, digging up articles and magazines, d then set to work researching the prob- n. A few weeks later, FPS meets on a week- d to write up a composition to be evaluat- and scored in Indianapolis. They are giv- a situation in the future and 2 hours on 2 clock. The race begins with the team ding 20 problems that could arise from 5 situation and then one overall problem. They then brainstorm 10 solutions to that main problem, grade it accordingly to cho- sen criteria, and write essays on the best solution; hopefully one that can solve all the problems. Future Problem Solving is a fun way to develop the problem solving skills which could prove useful in our future occupations or in weighing the everyday decisions that we will have to make as adults, says Rob Chambers. The team puts in a lot of hours of research and study but have been paid off for it so far. Keith Szymanski commented, it ' s a worthwhile activity that is both enter- taining and intellectual. Their first essay on Endangered Species received a rating of superior . One judge wrote, Great, well written solutions! A good example to show other teams on how to do FPS. Coach Patricia McLaughlin quotes, It ' s a new and exciting experience for me to be able to work with these interested young people in a challenging and creative program like this. The group will also be dealing with the latest discussion of Artificial Intelligence . In April, all FPS teams were given a problem to determine the 10 best rated teams for Indiana. The winners then advanced to the international competition in Ann Arbor, Michigan. 7 ---. Keith Szymanski, John Bennett, Rob Chambers, Lori Coleman, Karen Fuller.

The LaSalle business de- partment can help students take the bull by the horns. The business department teaches the stu- dents such skills as typing, shorthand, work processing, and accounting. It even offers such courses as Business Management, Of- fice Procedures and Marketing Education re- lated training, plus many more. The business department can be useful for any student needing clerical or office skills. For example, if a student wanted to get a job, the only thing that may save them from working in a greasy fast food restaurant is that they know how to type and file. Extra money could also be earned by typing for professors or for other students term pa- pers. In spite of the many advances in elec- tronic media, there is still a need for compe- tant secretaries, states Mrs. Barbara May, head of the business department.

The em- ployer searches until he finds one student had taken IOL, in preparation for his her career. Realizing this is the difference he was looking for, he chooses his employee. An IOL (Intensive Office Lab) student is provided with a marketable skill for competi- tive entry-level employment, explains Mrs. Darlene McDonnell. Junior Kim Ross feels IOL will advance my knowledge of working in an office situa- tion. I want to major in business in college so IOL gives me the chance to quicken my typing rate and work with different types of computers, comments junior Tanyell Wil- liams. At LaSalle, IOL is a two-period course offered to students of the junior and senior classes. When the decision of the employer is fi- nally reached, the IOL trainee is usually re- warded with a job and hopefully a future. IOL Academics 51 COE On The Job Training JWRITHOM Students who are interested in pursuing a career in an office should consider cooperat- ive Office Training (C.O.E.) as a program for them. In C.O.E., the student goes to school for three class periods, then leaves and gets on the job training in an office environment. C.O.E. is helpful in trying to place you in a job in coordination with you job hunting, along with them. It can also help you in a future career where a degree of baccalaure- ate is needed. The student is able to participate in a vocational youth organization — Office Edu- cation Association (O.E.A.) If any of this appeals to your sense of business, then C.O.E. is for you. The members of OCE had a car wash at the Marathon gas station last spring to raise funds. — photo by Sally Allsop Senior, Angle Beres, makes a speech at this years OEA ceremony. — photo by Root Photographers Robert Sebelski, Kim Hudack.

Tappity, tappity, tap! Clink! These are just a few of the noises heard in the Industrial Arts Department here at La- Salle. There are a variety of different Industrial Arts related courses to choose from. Some of these are drafting, auto and power me- chanics, woods, aerospace, graphic arts, electronics, and printing. Many of these programs do certain ser- vices for the school. One example is the print shop. They print LaSalle ' s newspaper, The Explorer, and different types of news- letters, tickets, invitations, etc. Another ex- ample is the auto shop. They take in cars owned by students or staff, and fix them.

It trains students in car- pentry, plumbing and electrical wiring. The students receive the necessary classroom training but they also get valuable on the job training. All seventeen members of the group, eight of which are from LaSalle, worked on building a house located on Fran- cis St. They do all the aspects of construc- tion; plumbing, carpentry and electrical wir- ing. This year the class built a two story, three bedroom, bi-level house.

The stu- dents involved in this program have a one hour related class here at LaSalle. They cov- er things that will be helpful to their work experience such as how to do resumes, safe- ty tips, and employment laws. At 11:00 they are released to go to work. They go to a variety of different jobs such as mechanics, draftsmen, computer debuggers, and even cosmotologists. ICT offers a base experience in work- ing, states ICT director, Mr. Wayne Wiley, it allows a student to see how a job might be as a career under actual work condi- tions. Sometimes it will be a negative work experience and the student who always wanted to be in a certain career finds out they really don ' t want to do that type of job. This is before money and time would have been spent on college. First Row Criag Deadmond, Mike Barkley, Scott Car rage, Joe Ratkay, Christopher David, Mr. Wiley.

Because of this LaSalle has added two new programs to its curriculum. They are the Health Co-op, and the Welders Co-op. In these programs, the students attend their morning classes, then in the afternoon they go to IVY Tech. Here they receive the advanced training they need. The Health Co-op was originally a part of ICT but students were not getting the training they needed. One reason for this was that the state boosted its require- ments for nurses aides. No longer can just anyone be taken off the street but special training is now required. Not only does the Health Co-op prepare you to be a nurses aide, but you can also choose from several other health related occupations. Both of these programs are new to LaSalle this year and seem to be successful, but as Mrs. West puts it, the comm unity must realize trained help is available. Lee Nelson, Keith Michalski.

There are abviously peo- ple who believe in this adage because phys- ical education is a required course in all high schools. Gym is a two semester course which most students take as a freshman or sopho- more. During this time you must participate in a variety of sports and exercises. You are also required to pass a physical fitness test. The philosophy of the gym teachers here is not to make each student look like a cover model for the magazine Body Beutiful. They only wish to give each student the knowl- edge of how to maintain the level of fitness they desire. Many student think of gym as an unimportant class. According to Mrs. Sipotz though, Physical education is a class which should instill awareness of physical fitness, lifetime activities, personal hygiene and a positive self image. Gym provides the opportunity to learn the proper techniques of exercise and, as sophomore, Julie Cottrell put it, the chance to exercise everyday. 58 upper Freshman Janine Felder tumbles her way across the gym mats while being tested on her gymnastic abilities. photo by Root Photographers lower Playing basketball is one of the fun activities that take place in gym.

It is impor- tant because, let ' s face it, you must have your health to live. Here at LaSalle the re- quired semester of health class teaches you this, along with much more. We covered everything! exclaims Ruth Milcherska. Ever- ything being first aid such as Cardiopulmen- ary Respiration, CPR, and the art of prop- er bandaging. You also learn about the use and possible abuse of drugs and alcohol, proper nutrition, total fitness, different parts of the body and brain and communicable and non-communicable disease. The most important aspects of health, states Mr. Faulkens, is the knowledge of what we have done in the past to know where we are today. Your health is the most important learning experience you will ever encounter. upperSophomore Terease Nixon takes part in a group discussion with Mr. Eddie Faulens in her health class. photo by Root Photographers lower Sophomore Dexter Teague explores the works of a human body on a plastic dummy in his third hour health class. photo by Root Photographers right One of the many things taught m health is CPR, and this student practices his CPR technique on one of the dummies provided by the school. photo by Root Photographer Health Academics 59 HERO Preparation For The Future Always wanted to be a Nursery School Teacher? How about a career in managing a restaurant? Like the sounds of a career in interior decorating? If so, then Home Economics Related Occupations (HERO) is the program for you. HERO helps a student prepare for an occupation which is related to Home Economics. This vocational Co-op consists of one-period in school, directed at job skills and half day on the job. Not only do students gain valuable work experience and get paid minimum wage, but it also gives them a chance to explore their career interests. HERO was started about five years ago, explains Mrs. Linda Lizzi, when Mrs. Linda Archambault and some of her students surveyed the community to find potential employers for the students interested (in a HERO program.) first row Darrin Swanson, Diana Shinner, Michelle Tip- ton, Lucina Moore, Ray Griffin second row Barb Sink, Michelle Huffman, Jynelle Sanders, Carmen Jones third row Robbie Klein, Dawn Steinhoffer, Tia Gamble, Mario Thomas, Mrs. Lizzi fourth row James Miller.

Gosh, I ' d just love to be a chef when I grow up, dreams San Souffle. But what can high school do to help us! If these students had looked over the course description booklet when they had registered, they would have discovered Home Economics (H.E.) Most students still have the misconception that home ec is just a cooking class for girls. Maybe that was so, but not in 1986. Today ' s curriculum includes a variety of classes in cooking, sewing, interior design and family relations. upper left Sophomore, Stacia Walker, shows her ex- pertise at making pancakes in her foods class. — photo by Root Photographers lower left One proud parent shows off her baby girl egg to the Family Relations class. — photo by Will Tieman above Sohomore, Ray Smith, enjoys the hinge benefits of his foods class. — photo by Root Photographers HE Academics FOREIGN LANGUAGE Languages Of The Lands What is your dream vacation? Maybe flying off to the romantic city of Paris, France, or visiting the Kremlin in Russia. If you would love to take these exotic trips, but are afraid to because you don ' t know anything about the cultures, languages or customs, LaSalle ' s foreign language depart- ment might be the answer for you. Not only are French, Russian, and Span- ish offered at LaSalle but so are German and Latin. Latin is offered mostly for students who wish to have a better understanding of the English language and its origins. In the other languages a true understanding of the customs and cultures is sought. In Mrs. An- tonia Wright ' s French class the students put on a French puppet show and celebrated Mardi Gras. Mrs. Wright explains why, we always add cultural materials to our foreign language classes. The skits and plays allow the student to be creative in the target lan- guage and at the same time practice the spoken language. Left Mrs. Moran, a student french teacher, uses the blackboard as a tool in explaining reflexive verbs to her class. photo by Root Photographers Below Junior Wayne Hurst, works intently to get the assignment done in his Spanish class. photo by Root Photographers Lower Left Many different methods can be used to learn a foreign language.

To the art student, art is a way of express- ing themselves, ranging from everyday class work to the murals that line the halls each spring. In addition to class work, advanced draw- ing students must turn in over twenty-five hours of homework every nine weeks. Stu- dents express their creativeness by painting, ceramics, weaving, and craft design, along with the Art Club. According to Mr. Alonzo Stivers, Art class helps them, by making art their life work or use their skills as a reward- ing hobbie. LaSalle also proudly boasts the only annu- al Spring Paint in South Bend where stu- dents compete for the first place ribbon awarded to the best mural. The hard work of teachers Alonzo Stivers and Judy Ladd will keep LaSalle ' s tradition of art alive for many years to come.

The PVE student has the same rights and responsibilities to the school and com- munity as any other individual in the student body. The PVE program is designed to meet the needs of each individual at his appropriate level. A written edu- cational program (1EP) has been developed for each student to meet his unique educational needs. The IEP is a cooperative effort between the parents, the school, and other involved agencies to determine the best possi- ble program for the student. The IEP also serves as a guide and measure of the students total progress. Students in the PEV program are assigned to job stations on a competitie basis. This experience com- bined with responsibility develops a students potential and prepares him for the future.

A student would be forced to boredom with only academics, yes academics are essen- tial, but without other extra activi- ties it would become unbearable. Not only are the organizations fun and re- warding but a learning experience also. For example, the drama club ' s objective is to develop a knowledge of theatre and related areas. The clubs offer to students things the other classes might not touch. It helps widen a students perspective and possibly help in a career choice. ORGANIZATION SECTION JENNIFER CLARK MISSY HAAB - EDITOR Organizations kJ ART CLUB Capturing The Talent The stroke of a brush, the turning of the potters wheel, and the beginning pull of the loom is the starting of what we call Art. The Art Club is developed for students with a talent some of us can only dream of having. Chemistry teacher Mrs. Karen McKibbin declares, I love art but I can ' t draw, I express my art in what I wear, the way I talk, and the style of my hair. This year the Art Club has participated in projects that concern cleaning up our school. For example, they have exchanged rotten bulletin boards for beautiful pictures and put some color to the drab trash cans. Top row — Steve Littljohn, Amy Fraser, Mike Conley.

They ' re Playing Our Song A tap, tap, tap, echoes through the room. Students bump into each other as they race to their seats. Silence overcomes you. The baton rises, one large breath is enhaled, and in one drop of the hand, voila music. The musicians start preparing for a con- cert or contest months in advance. Repeat- ing a piece over and over again each day might seem monotonous. However, junior Tim Darr finds it just the opposite, it ' s fun to play something over again. You can al- ways tell where you improve. Mr. Willie Keyes, band director, finds the band to be, young but very talented. He predicts, we ' ll go far. From the many students that participate in concert and symphonic band, it i s quite natural to assume that it is a popular class. Senior Jean Ruppert says, I enjoy being with all the people. Many people are proud of our band. One unique thing about L.H.S. is that we have a very supportive faculty, staff, and community which makes the school a model for others to envy, concludes Mr. Willie Keyes.

The students are now in a trance and the only words they can utter are V.I.C.T.O.R.Y and Fight On! Other than being an extensive entertain- ment source during games, the band is also a major role player during pep assemblies. Without the bands the Student body of LaSalle would lose most of its Pride. The LaSalle band reminds the students of how proud we are of our school. Other than just getting students rowdy the band stands for other things also. Mr. Keyes states this about the importance of his band classes, It creates the awareness of working together as a team. This is done through the means of self-discipline, self-esteem, respect for others, and the need to carry your own part to contribute to the whole. Band mem- ber Gail Martin states, It is fun, you get with friend s and do something you enjoy doing. Brass Bottom Diane Hemig, Brent Crawford. Diana Kenzle, Matt Willis, Aaron Warren.

In 1967, Mr. Hollis Hughes, with the help of Mr. Dwight Bol- ton, organized a Black Culture Society club. The purpose of the Black Culture Soci- ety is to develop Black Pride and Black Awareness. To make Blacks more visible on a positive way, and to develop a posi- tive attitude in black students. The Black Culture Society ' s biggest and most active week is the nationally observed Black History Week. During this week, the club puts together a show- case in African Art pieces, reads some of the unknown facts about Black History, and studies about men and women who had contributed the most to advancement of the black race.

Not only can you see and enjoy the cultures and sce- neries of these places but you also meet and attend school with the foreign students. Vice president of the club, sophomore Henry Mark, comments, I went out because it would be fun to talk about different coun- tries and get to know the foreign exchange students. All this and more in the International club. And believe it or not it ' s all free. No round trip planning, just a sign of your name and a visit every month does the job.

Behind it all is the cheerleaders and the crowd. Week after week, they lead the fans in an uproar of chants and screams to push those lions on to victory. Bruised knees, hoarse throats, pulled muscles, and aching joints all come along with the name cheerleader. The girls also have to keep their spirits up at all times. Sometimes that can be especially hard when the clock ' s ticking away, and the opponent has just scored again, raising their lead to twenty points. However, the one game where the Lions take it all is worth waiting for. B-Team captain, Tammy Gaby says, It ' s exciting trying to get the crowds peppy and fired up. Cheerleading is also a chance to show the LaSalle student body how to use their school spirit. Lower it. Varsity cheerleaders show how glad they are to be LaSalle Lions.

V Roar With Pride i J This year ' s pom pon sponsors, Mrs. Judy Ladd and Mrs. Margaret Huber, not only had a varsity squad of 16 girls, but also a B- team consisting of seven girls. This was the first year that LaSalle had TWO hard-work- ing and talented teams. Members from both the varsity and the B- team attended the Mid-American Pom Pon camp at Bethel College this past summer. In all, 21 girls went to the four days of camp. All of the campers learned three routines and a kickline each day and performed in competition every night. The LaSalle squad as a whole won four tophies, one of which was for Squad Unity. The varsity Pom Pon girls entertained crowds at home girls ' and boys ' basketball games, the Holiday Tournament and Sec- tionals. The B-teamsquad performed at vol- leyball games, girls ' varsity and boys ' fresh- man basketball games. Both squads partici- pated in the South Bend Pom Pon Competi- tion which was held at LaSalle this year. Each year the poms show improvement and this year was no exception. Since both the varsity and the B-team was made up mostly of underclassmen, next year ' s squads should continue to shine with Lion Pride.

In addition to LaSalle ' s Pom Pon squad it has the Flags. This group of ladies practice from sum- mer until winter trying for perfection. They must be strong enough to lift up and twirl around the flags while keeping their move- ments sharp. Another difficult task of the flags is sin- cronization. They must be fast with sharp direct movements while keeping in time with other girls. The girls must also stay aware of whether or not their flag is tangled. Flags is a definite eye catcher on the floor or field. These girls keep up their work and produce an excellent show. Above Junior, Jenny Christensien, concentrates on keep- ing her flag in line.

This year ' s problem was Resolved: The federal government should establish a com- prehensive, national policy to protect the quality of water in the United States. Senior debator Matt Radecki commented on finding the facts to support or refute this resolution, it ' s not real hard to find infor- mation, you just have to know where to look. As in any argument, emotions come to fore front; but to win, the debaters use their emotions to their advantages.

Well it is hard to say unless you know what you ' re getting into. First of all you must be a junior, be in the upper three percent of your class scholasti- cally, have done superior work in some phase of journalism or school publications and must be recommended by a publications advisor. The student picked for Quill and Scroll is a student who enjoys working on writing and other literary works. Sometimes they may be found working on Seen Through Lions Eyes, the Explorer, or the Lantern. LaSaile ' s chapter of this national organi- zation was increased by eighteen during last springs induction banquet, the only activity held by LaSaile ' s Quill and Scroll.

But according to sophomore Alex Nelson, It ' s not as hard as it may seem to be. It takes a lot of strategy and concentration to play chess. In ancient times chess was considered a game of war without physical violence. But in current times it is considered to be a competitive game to test ones intelli- gence.

Survival from the land, survival of the fittest, and survival from peers to try alcohol and drugs. LaSalle is involved with one type of survival. To survive the hardships, disap- pointments and frustrations of life. Senior and president of Survival Inc., Rich Schroder explains, We ' re here to listen, not teach you for basic training. Survival Inc. consists of 35 students that are willing to help friend or foe. I would help anyone, no matter what grade, race, or if I know them or not, comments sopho- more Sally Allsop. What does Survival Inc. do for Lions? They set up a buddy-system with new comers. It was nice to see that people care enough to set up a meeting for the new people to get to know one another, says Heather Fite. On May 25, Survival Inc. among other Lions participated in Hands Across America to feed the hungry. Also, the group takes part in nationwide events which concern the abuse of drugs and alco hoi. For example, on May 22, a walk was held protesting the abuse. English teacher, Mr. Darwin Nelson advises, Any student who has a friend needing help should con- tact Mrs. Landry or a Survival Inc. member immediately. S.A.D.D. (Students Against Drunk Driv- ing) is a branch of Survival Inc. Instead of dealing with the problems that a person has coping with pressure, S.A.D.D. directs its energies at the abuse of drugs and alcohol. It doesn ' t take much for a student to take a drink, only another ' friend ' , declares Mrs. Anita Landry. According to state policeman, Warren Nile, More than half of the fatal accidents are caused because someone was driving intoxicated. Our goal is to let people know that we are there trying to reach out and prevent a person from drinking and driving, pro- claims senior Jenelle Coddens, president of LaSalle ' s S.A.D.D. chapter.

Student Government plays a major role in the sports homecomings. It organizes the elections for the courts and keeps the event that night running smoothly, keeping the girls and their escorts from becoming too nervous and confused. The toy and food drives, also sponsored by the Student Government, not only give a sense of pride to Lions but also put a spark of joy in South Bend ' s needy. Spirit week, this year, on the other hand, puts a spark of pride in LaSalle ' s student body by adding enjoyment and creativity to a slow mid-winter month. The two groups that make up the Student Government are the House of Representi- tives and the Senate. The House is made up of 20 students, two students for each dis- trict. The Senate is made up of 16 students, two black students and two white students from each class. These students are elected by the students at LHS in the spring. This group of fine young people is lead by Mr. Michael Sacchini. Right Diane Smous and her escort Eric Zolman are a prime example of another Student Government spon- sored event — homecoming. — photo by Root Photographers Below Distributing food collected during the week be- fore Christmas break, Mr. Michael Sacchini gives the Student Government ' s contribution to one of South Bend ' s needy. — photo by Root Photographers Far right Student Government members.

They took the going ons in LaSalle and put it in such a way that we were able to under- stand and enjoy. Students know all the soon to some events along with the past and pre- sent news. No student would be uninformed if they read it. No one understands how difficult it is to put out a newspaper, even a school newspa- per takes long and tedious hours of work. David Behling states, One of the difficulties that arises is, not enough copy, this results in either getting an ad or writing a feature. Even though the newspaper is bi-weekly there are still deadlines to meet and jobs to be done. The Explorer is not just recognized as a NEWSpaper but as the LaSalle personality. It voices the students thoughts and lets them be heard. The Explorer is truly the LaSalle Pride Paper.

They have no conception of the planning the deadlines, the emotions and the chaos that are poured into the production of The Lantern. Any staff member can promise you Being on yearbook staff takes alot of patience, but also enthusiasm and creativity, Kari Cohee. Careful planning is crucial to a good year- book. Only well thought out pictures can stand the test of time; snapshots grow old with time. Deadlines and agony are synonymns in the life of a staff member. It ' s time to plan the page, it ' s time to order pictures it ' s time to write copy, it ' s time to panic. This is not a one time ordeal; it ' s a night- mare that repeats itself four times between September and February. After the deadlines; pages are mailed to Josten ' s publishing company to be printed and bound. This is the time when the staff cleans up the mess that has accumulated during the six months, and relaxes for awhile. Now its time to begin next years book. There are million and one jobs to be com- pleted and an early start never hurts. As for the celebration part of yearbook, you ' ll see it in every staffer ' s personality when the yearbook finally returns.

The 1986 Lantern Sports Staff wanted to honor the athletes of LaSalle by creating an equally im- pressing sports section, filled with pho- tographs of the joy of winning, and the learning that comes with defeat. A new addition to this year ' s section is Senior Standouts, spotlighting La- Salle ' s senior athletes. The question was asked; WHAT IS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT IN YOUR SPORTS CAREER? We had replies ranging from serious to satirical, as you will read.

Led by coach Tom Csenar, their record could have easily been 8-1. Two of the three losses were by one run. The two losses came to St. Joe, 3-4 and to Riley, 4-5, a game that went into extra innings. The other loss came against Brandywine 11-1 in the first game of the season. LaSalle dominated Mishawaka beating them twice during the same season, 7-2 in their second game of the season, and 6-1 in their finale. Other freshmen victims were arch rival Washington, Penn, Clay, and Adams. Dave Behling owned a 3-1 record while Art Vorhees posted a 3-2 record. Vorhees stated I thought we had the best offensive team and the defense really came around. Freshmen captains were Mike Siglawski and Mike Conley. r -r A . mei ■- ' ■- -.- ■ „ ■ ■ s %. - -■■ ' Junior Varsity Has The Potential Last year ' s junior varsity, coached by Dick Collins, showed it has potential to win posting an over all record of 13-7, 11-7 in the Northern Indiana Conference. LaSalle ' s B-team displayed an offensive attack to go with a solid defense. All seven losses came by only one run, and Coach Collins felt good about the team ' s perfor- mance. They played well and showed spirit but didn ' t get the right hits at the right time, he said. The thirteen wins came at the expense of Northwood, Elkhart Central, Mishawaka, Ri- ley, Adams, Michigan City Elston, New Prarie, and arch rivals Washington and Clay. Strong varsity candidates this year will be Mike Kajzer, Paul Van Gundy, Kurt Ogorek, Matt Miller, Alan Delinski, Rick Tompos, and Shawn McCain, said Coach Collins.

V. Baseball JS D mUmm  Baseball At LaSalle Means Lionball LaSalle has emerged as a powerful force in baseball in the Northern Indiana Confer- ence in recent years. The year 1985 was no exception. LaSalle ' s brand of baseball, dubbed Lionball under head coach Lenny Rzeszewski, kept them in the running for the NIC crown for most of the season until a powerful Washington team took the title. Bobbing in and out of the state rankings throughout the season, the Lion ' s hopes were shattered in the championship game of the South Bend Sectionals by Washington, 5 to 4. The 1986 season will have a very differ- ent look as a new head coach, Scott Sill, will be taking over for the retired Rzeszewski. This year will be a rebuilding year since we lost nine seniors last year, we ' ll need hard work to equal last year ' s record, comment- ed the new coach. With hard work from Senior Standouts Jeff Hauteman, Junior Miller, Mike Stack, Russ Buysse, John Lucz- kowski, and Joe Herman, Lionball is sure to pounce into the 1986 season. top left Two rival coaches, Jim Reinebold of Clay, left, and Lenny Rzeszewski of LaSalle, take time out before the LaSalle-Clay game at Kennedy Park. — photo by Root Photographers Opp upper left Catching is the most physically de- manding position on the diamond as senior Junior Miller found out the hard way.

Sports Varsitv Baseball 97 Girls Have Regionably Good Year In foftball Nineteen eighty-five introduced a new for- mat to girls ' high-school Softball in Indiana: the state tournament. LaSalle ' s Lady Lions took full advantage of it by roaring into the state semi-finals, only to be stopped by In- dianapolis North Central in a close contest, 5-2. This ended the girls ' Northern Indiana Conference championship season, winning the crown with a NIC record of 9 wins, losses, and an overall record of 14-4. I knew we had the potential for a good team, but we also knew reaching that poten- tial would take hard work and a little luck, said Head Coach John Woody Woodruff. Senior Lori Pajakowski, en route to Valpor- aiso University on a scholarship, played her best year of her four year career at LaSalle. Pajakowski, team MVP of ' 85 and a two time all-NIC pitcher, holds every LaSalle Softball pitching record. Other 1985 Senior Standouts include Brenis West, three time all-NIC shortstop and Kelly Evens, leading the team with a .415 batting average. Sophomores LeAnn Ring, second team NIC at third base, and Debbie Smith, second team NIC utility play- er, show that LaSalle also had depth. The Lady Lions began their journey to the Final Four close to home; the South Bend Sectionals were played on the Softball dia- mond behind LaSalle. The girls blew by Washington 9-0 and stopped St. Joe 1-0 to advance to the next round of the tourna- ment, being held at Twin Branch Park in Mishawaka. There they defeated Michigan City Rogers 11-1 and Chesterton, who had beaten the Lions twice in a double-header during the season, 5-4 in a marathon 16 inning game. Earning the regional title the Lady Lions took LaSalle ' s name to Indiana- polis for the state finals. Winning their quar- ter-final game 8-0 over New Albany, they were stopped by North Central in the semi- finals. The Lady Lions lost six seniors in 1985, only four were starters, so they are looking forward to the 1986 season. The ' 86 team has the same potential at this point in time as the ' 85 team had. Only time will tell if we fullfill that potential.

This is the philosophy of the LaSalle Smoke Squad head coach George Jones. The statement shows the em- phasis on teamwork that Coach Jones teach- es his athletes on the LaSalle track team. The team, however, had a rough ' 85 sea- son with an overall record of 4-6. Injuries hurt us, said Coach Jones, referring to Sec- tional polevaulting champ, senior Jon grant, who fell to a leg injury late in the season. Another disappointment was the absence of the 1984 100 meter dash State Champi- on, Michael Smith. Smith passed track by to concentrate on academics before entering college, at Notre Dame. Coach Jones noted a bright spot were the quality of the fresh- men runners that came out last year. Jones is optimistic about the 1986 year. We should improve our 1985 record and be in contention for the NIC title. We ' d also like to do well in the regional, and take more people to state. With hard work, good per- formances from the Senior Standouts, and the ever-present teamwork, LaSalle should fare well in 1986. 100 Sports Bovs ' Track Top row (I to r): Assistant Coach Dennis Giden, Keilawn Carothers.

The Lady Lions have a full squad return- ing from last year, and they all will have a year ' s experience coming into 1986. The goal is to send everyone to state, Coach Price stated. A goal which is very much in reach. The Lady Lions set 13 re- cords in all 13 events last year, and coaches Price and Johnson expect many to place in state.

That was the word ju- niors, Mark Yeakey and Ryan Beall used to describe the 1985 soccer season. With a 2-9 record overall, the Lions fell prey to many contenders. They suffered their worst defeats at the hands of state ranked Adams and St. Joe. The Lions only victories were over westside archrival Wash- ington and the Mishawaka Cavemen. According to first year head coach, Rollie Lichnerowicz, senior Sean Decker, juniors Mark Yeakey and Kevin Zygulski, and soph- omore Ken Slisz will help the Lion cause next season. Coach Rollie also stated that next season is going to be a productive season, depend- ing on the number of underclassmen that come out. We are really looking forward to it (next season), and we hope to go 500 overall. Some of the players commented on next season. It looks promising if the spirit is there, sophomore Bryan Smith stated. The Lions should be much improved over last year, and more people will be out, according to Yeakey and Beall. fi When I scored my first goal and we went on to beat Mishawaka by a score of 2-1. — Sean Decker Front row: Jeff Freir.

They ended the season 1-9 in the Northern Indiana Conference (NIC), and 2-12 overall. We were able to see what we were capable of doing, Coach Baginski added. A lot of the losses were within 10-15 points and first year coach, John Nagy, is looking to junior Tony Polizzotto to make up those few strokes. According to Polizzotto, The whole team is going to have to pull together for a better season next year. I ' ve improved from my freshmen year, but I ' m going to have to improve on last year in order to help the team achieve a 500 record. Polizzotto reached regionals as a sophomore and was also team captain. With a full squad returning next year, the golf team will be one to watch for improve- ment.

The Lady Lions finished with a winning record of 10-4. They were defeated only by the top three teams in the Northern Indiana Confer- ence. The success was due to the desire by all the girls to prove that we can win, and we can bring fame and pride to the school, said junior Melissa Stanchin. Statistically, 1984-85 tennis season has improved much over last years record. Hopefully, next spring, the Lady Lions will have an even more successful season, re- marked Amy Stanchin.

The LaSalle boy ' s tennis team began practicing. They had hoped to improve on last year ' s record of 5-9. Senior Ken Rose played the coveted number one singles spot, a position he ' s held since his junior year. The number two singles spot was held by junior year. The number two singles spot was held by junior Tony Polizzotto. Greg Coldiron, a sopho- more, rounded out the singles by playing number three. The two doubles teams were collectively made up of seniors Joe Herman, Julian Nabba, junior Pat De- volder, sophomore David Behling, and freshman Eric VanOsdol. The Lion ' s went on the offense against LaVille, New Prarie, Mishawaka, and arch- rival Washington. They won by scores of 3- 2, 4-1, 5-0, and 3-2. LaSalle was handed its worst defeats by state-ranked St. Joseph, Adams, Penn, Elkhart Central, and Clay. According to Rose the team was young and inexperienced, but we worked hard and pulled together on the court. The 4- year letterwinner feels that the tennis team of 1986 will still lack the exper- ience , but he also says that they will have enough heart and motivation to pull out some upsets.

Junior Varsity Looks To Future The past is prologue to the future and for the LaSalle Lions Junior Varsity Football team, the future could be on the way. If you try to remember the last time LaSalle had a really Good football team, you probably couldn ' t. You would have to go back to the days of domination by old South Bend Cen- tral in Northern Indiana. But, the glory of that old Central team could come alive at LaSalle nexi year. Sophomore Jack Gillean said The team is loaded with talent and potential Though the team hasn ' t reached their potential they have proved they have talent, otherwise they wouldn ' t have mustered up a 4 and 4 record on B-team. Being blown out by Elk- hart memorial 31-3 wasn ' t an easy loss but LaSalle showed they could provide a few explosions of their own by beating Washing- ton 36-0. Of the four victories, two came in the last two games against Mishawaka (13-0) and Clay (12-6 overtime) and one was a forfeit by Penn. LaSalle can win but the determination and dedication must come. Sophomore Chris McLaughlin stated: If the team works hard in the off season and the regular season we have the talent to have a winning season. Next year could be LaSalle ' s year and the fans may have something to look forward to. Lower Right Junior tailback Ray Griffin tries to get around Clay opponents and his own blocker.

Football 109 Varsity Football We Had A Very Coachable Group This Year Some good came out of the 1985 LaSalle football season. In ' 85, LaSalle recorded twice as many victories as in 1984. The Lions also participated in their first sectional game. They have improved. The 1985 season was kicked off with an impressive performance at the South Bend Jamboree at Jackson Field. A fired up La- Salle team beat the Clay Colonials 7-0 in their first quarter of play, and in their second quarter, they managed a 0-0 tie with Wash- ington. LaSalle was looking for results from its seniors right from the start and five pro- duced some noteworthy statistics. Fred Dix- on, the Lion ' s defensive end, led the team with 52 tackles and 46 assists. Dixon is in second place in most of LaSalle ' s all-time defensive records, and was chosen to the 5A district first team and second team in the Northern Indiana Conference. Teammate Pete Schindler finished the season behind Dixon with 36 tackles and 36 assists. Jarrett Newsome led LaSalle with seven intercep- tions. Offensive performers racked up equally Improves In ' 86 impressive stats. Garry Johnson was La- Salle ' s leading rusher with 318 yards. John- son finished his career with 642 yards as a LaSalle tailback. At quarterback, Brian Andrzejewski totaled up 823 yards passing, and will graduate with 1231 total yards pass- ing, second in LaSalle ' s history. Junior Alan Delinski ended the season as LaSalle ' s lead- ing receiver with 296 yards. LaSalle got its first victory after three tries at the expense of Northwest side arch-rival Washington. Jackson field was the scene of the 16-0 shutout, one of the finest perfor- mances of the year, according to head Coach Wallace Wally Boocher. The two teams played with a lot of pride and determi- nation, marred only by a third period brawl erupting after junior tailback Ray Griffin was hit late on the LaSalle sideline. The fired up LaSale team rolled on to their first victory. The regular season came to an end on a positive note. The game was against Clay on an extremely negative night. Torrential rains fell and so did the Colonials, 14-12, in dra- matic fashion. Defensive end Fred Dixon re- covered a fumble with the score 12-7, Clay, and rambled 33 yards for his first touchdown making the score 13-12. With John Cotton ' s kick for the extra point, the Lions were sec- tional bound. The powerful Valporaiso Vikings were LaSalle ' s opponent for the first round of the class 5A sectionals. The Lions suffered a 56- 7 rou ting to the eventual state finalist, but Coach Boocher felt the final score could have been closer. Valporaiso is an out- standing team, but I think we could have hung in there with them if we had not made the mental errors. Boocher was referring to a play in the first half when an interception virtually cost the Lions 14 points. LaSalle was within ten yards of seven points when the interception occurred. Valpo then drove downfield for a touchdown. Watch out for the Lions in ' 86. Next year, a few key positions need to be filled in order for LaSalle to be a contender in the NIC. If we fill the offensive line and quarterback spots with athletes, we ' ll be a winner. We will have 47 kids back next year, 21 of which won letter sweaters, commented Boocher. If Coach Boocher ' s prescription is filled, the Lion ' s success could be just what the doctor ordered for LaSalle in 1986.

Koehler ' s optimism was due to the fact that 40 swimmers tried out and the possibil- ity of LaSalle ' s first J.V. swim team was on the horizon. But the number of recruits was drastically reduced after the first week of strenuous practice. Nevertheless, the young sharks almost re- corded four wins, something that has hap- pened only once in the past 14 years, but LaSalle ran into some tough luck at Breman and Washington, two teams that have easily fallen to the sharks in previous years. Three disqualifications at Breman and four at Washington spelled defeat by the scores of 88-81 and 91-80. The swimmers succeeded in edging John Adams 88-84 in a great come-from-behind effort, and coasted by Howe Military 108-61, for the team ' s two victories. The poolsharks started the season ex- tremely young, and gradually came of age throughout the season. Competing right from the start of the season were Dave Ba- ker and Allan Thompson, both class of ' 86. Baker, a consistantly strong all-around swim- mer, and Thompson, primarily a diver, pro- vided the young team with much needed leadership early on in the year. Joining for the third meet was cross-country and track man Angelo Lloyd. Lloyd, and his younger brother Billy, a freshman, were unique in that they found swimming even a few laps a challenge. But with hard work and determi- nation, they both were regular freestylers by the end of the season.

The team called him Phil and eventually called him one of the leading swimmers on the team. The poolsharks have many promising swimmers who will contribute in the follow- ing years. I feel that we ' ll be contenders in the next couple of years. We ' re al learning as we go along and we ' ll have an exper- ienced team returning next year, comment- ed Coach Koehler, who expects to return for his fifth year in 1987. Contributors looking for a successful sea- son next year include juniors Rob Perkins, Mike Baker, Kent McKesson, and Brian Col- son. Colson left the team late in the year to join the YMCA ' s swim team before their National Championships in Jacksonville, Florida. The Sophomore class is also well repre- sented on the team by Mike Conley, Tom Moritz, Sean Chiszar, and co-captain Jack Gillean. Gillean shares his captaincy with senior Dave Baker. Andre Price and Rob Carroll hope to join the team next year if academically eligible. Koehler ' s comments on the Freshman class; They ' ve really surprised me this year. Dave Bratton, Jim Talboom, Steve TeRoller, Brian Conley, and Terry Coleman have improved incredabely over the course of the year. Koehler went on to say that freshmen Gary Fischer, hampered by an in- jury, and Billy Lloyd really came along this year. Koehler stresses that if his team contin- ues to improve, next year LaSalle ' s natatori- um could house a winner. 118 Sports Boys ' Swimming Stf ttfA M Loa 4 My most memorable moment is when I made my first lap without drowning! — Angelo Lloyd My last year when we won against Adams and got to throw the coach in! — Dave Baker I was homesick and wanted to go back to France, but the team, my second family, really did help me to stay and enjoy my American time.

First year girls ' swimming team coach Marge Koehler ' s expectations may never leave the top of her head. I expected a few gray hairs by the end of the season joked the still blond Koehler. The loss of seniors Jennifer Suter, Debbie Hanchar, and Jenelle Coddens could mean rough seas ahead for the young Sealions. Suter, a four year veteran, excelled in the 200 individual medley and the 100 yard butterfly. Suter co-captained the Sealions her senior year and was, in the coaches eyes, the best student athlete. Hanchar ' s specialty was the 100 yard backstroke, while Cod- dens, the other co-captain, the team ' s best Center Anticipating the gun is all important in swim- ming.

Also leaving the team will be foreign ex- change student Maria Perez. The Spanish swimmer, swimming breaststroke, was a wel- come addition to the team, which often suf- fers from lack of support and interest. Next year, Koehler feels the Sealions will be an improved team. Not to mention having another year under their belts, Koehler feels there is a lot of potential for next year and the years to come. Louise Hold, Christen Frame, and Sara Watson are all freshmen that Koehler was impressed with. Watson was the only freshman to receive her letter sweater. Sophomores Mindy Wray, and Tammy Speakes, along with juniors Trisha Miller, Dore Walkowski, Catherine Watson, and Vicki Mould are all expected to contri- bute next year. All things considered, the new coach was happy with the performances ' this year. The only meets I expected to win were the ones we won, I wasn ' t hoping for anything miraculous overnight. Winning three meets, Breman, New Prai- rie, and Washington, the girls acquainted themselves to winning. Finishing the season with a 3-10 record record, means the girls have a lot of off-season work to do before a winning record can be achieved.

They proudly supported a nine game winning streak through the tenth week of the season. In 1986, the young Lions seemed to be going it alone as both the Junior Varsity and Varsity squads owned losing marks. Alvin Walker, Carlos Lee, Marcus Pittman, Neil Miller and Allen Jackson all played impor- tant roles in the successful season but the whole team played the important role of supporting each other. With the experience they gained in 1986 and their winning attitude, basketball fans will have something to look forward to in the years to come. 122 Sports Frosh Basketball ■ ' 1 WW i ., ■ n Ji l: M A i M 14 AO il! 1 if Sweat poured down their face while thoughts of a 2-5 record poundered their minds, the Junior Varsity practiced their lay- ups, freethrows, plays, and overall shooting with hope of improvement on their record. Apparently, the hard work had started pay- ing off as the B-team claimed victories over their next three opponents. This had upped their record to 4-5 half way through the season. I think that our Junior Varsity squad has a lot of talent and will show it in the future, stated junior Kevin Hall. Maybe this team can put fear into opponents visiting the Lions ' Den. But the only way this could happen is through the hard work, repitition, hustle and sweat. Top Right Even the B-team cheerleaders couldn ' t stop the J.

I never dreamed we ' d be winless at this point in the season, Pittman explained be- fore the team ' s battle with the St. Joe Indi- ans. The night before, the Lions had lost a heartbreaker to Elkhart Memorial, 50-51 and LaSalle ' s losing streak was extended to seven games. But for the first time this sea- son, the Lions reaquainted themselves with winning. I feel like a great big load has just been lifted off my back, said a relieved Pittman after his teams victory over the Indians, 69- 58. Junior Shawn Spriggs poured in 23 points against St. Joe to lead all scorers. Spriggs also leads the team in average, scoring bet- ter than ten points a game this year. We need more games like that one from Shawn tonight, Pittman said following the win.

Senior Marc Jeffries also contributed off the bench in the winning cause. Other steady performers this year have been Junior Kevin Zygulski and Sophomore Michael LeSure. Zygulski is second on the team in scoring averaging about 7.5 points per game. LeSure stated, Right now, we ' re a little low on confidence, but once we get up, we ' re going to be hard to beat. Even though the Lions will be losing five seniors (Marc Jeffries, Jeff Hauteman, Ricky Lax, Denny Pellow and Steve Reeves) Pitt- man hopefully commented, Next year, we gotta have a better start than this year and we ' ll have more experience. 124 Sports Varsity Basketball iy T vjLoiXt I was in eighth grade at St. John ' s and I scored 28 points against St. Mary ' s leading the team in scoring that day. — Jeff Hauteman It was when I made varsity my junior year.

We ran about 80 sets of stairs every day and worked hard but it pays off in the end, said sophomore Chris Cass. It ' s going to be hard to top a State Cham- pion, but the 1985-86 wrestlers are the ones who could get the job done. LaSalle has been known for being a tough competitor in this sport and has proven this true b y win- ning sectionals and placing second in region- als last year. I believe we ' ll send two to state this year, said Coach John Woodruff. The two Woodruff spoke of were seniors Fred Dixon and Daryn Swanson, although Swanson was unable to wrestle as Sectionals drew near due to orthoscopic knee surgery. With Fred Dixon going to Semi-State and Swanson ending his career with a 16-0 re- cord, the Lions showed that hard work does pay off.

At this time their record stands at 8-5 overall and 4-1 in the Northern Indiana Conference (NIC). They are in an exciting race for the NIC crown, tied with Adams and Elkhart Memorial. Their one loss in the NIC came from Elkhart Memorial, with a heartbreaking score of 54-53. Coach Colleen Doyle has high expecta- tions for the rest of the season, two of them being to win the NIC title and to win section- als. She feels that the season is going pretty much the way she thought it would. We have had our ups and downs this season, but we have had enoughs ups to put us in a tie for first in the NIC, remarks first year Head Coach Doyle. When asked who performing exceptional- ly well this season Coach Doyle replied that, overall the whole team was performing well. Specific persons named were Sharon McBride, the leading scorer, Kim Phillips and Cassandra Phillips, the team ' s leading defensive duo. Despite the low points and tough losses, there were highlights.

Rich Boehnlein, Brian • At the beginning of the year, ev- eryone knows who the freshmen are because of the bewildered looks on their faces. They walk around with their eyes glued to the numbers above the doors and their map under arm. But, after the first few chaotic days, the frenzy quiets down and the freshmen get into the swing of things. After the first couple months freshmen initiation gets old and the annoying cries of upper classmen fades. Of course for some upperclassmen it is difficult to accept fresh- men. They ignore them and never include them. Unfortunately they forgot when they were freshmen. The further we get into the year the more and more the upperclassmen will overlook the class ranking and only no- tice the person ' s personality. The freshmen year also brings about many new and fun advantages. In the fall months there are football games, you can cheer on your team, or sing with the cheer- leaders. Later you can meet your friends at Noble Romans for a pizza. After football season there is basketball season with more advantages to have fun and express yourself as a La Salle high school student. 132 Freshmen A BRA HA M-BOEHNLEIN Left Keri Traxler and Anita Warren show their star- studded freshman attitudes by cheering on LaSalle at the first pep assembly. — photo by Root Photographers Above Brigie Schieck, one of LaSalle s freshmen swim- mers, was recognized with her teammates at a pep assembly. — photo by Root Photographers Bolinger.

It ' s one big step into the un- known. A new school creates a whole new stack of questions: Will I make new friends? Will I do ok in my new classes? Will anyone notice me? The bus pulls up to school. All the upper- classmen troop off the bus leaving the freshmen behind to amble off the bus amidst a chorus of freshmen! The bus drivers just smile, close their door with a slam and take off. As a freshman, at least one embarrasing thing must happen to you, and then you ' re all right for the rest of the year. It might be falling in a crowded hallway, bouncing off an upperclassmen and lying sprawled out all over the floor, or not watching where you are going and running into the, lamp post out in the courtyard. Embarrasing moments aren ' t fun. A guided tour or even a map would make your class-finding job a lot easier. Especially with the help of information booths dis- guised as teachers stationed along the halls to give much needed directions. Your first cafeteria visit may be a bit rough. The lines are long and full of upper- classmen according to Shawn Gunny, The cafeteria was very crowded. It seemed like there were more people in the junk food than any others, . Cafeteria hazards range from tray dropping to a money shortage at the cashiers counter. Life is full of firsts. Some are scarey. The only good thing about firsts, is after them come seconds, and then a world of comfort- able familiarity.

Yes, proclaims Andrae Scott, I think that we ' ve been treated as fairly as possible and I ' m not really complaining. Tom Smelser adds, I think that the fresh- men are being treated as any other person in this school. The freshmen, replies Jenny Douthart, get treated equal by most of the people, but there are still those that consider fresh- men very low. We ' re just as good as anyone else! After talking to the freshmen, we decided it best to talk to the upperclassmen and here ' s what we came up with: No, freshmen aren ' t treated equally. states sophomore Ruth Milcherska, But that ' s a part of life, everyone goes through it at one time.

This years freshmen here at LaSalle High School are catching on to school spirit, and are becom- ing more spirited as the year goes on. School spirit takes on a different meaning for different people. According to Tina Zawacki school spirit means, Participating in school activities, cheering at games and wearing school colors. But for Dan Brassell it means playing football. Whatever the de- scription, freshmen here at LaSalle have many ways of showing their spirit. Going to football games, joining school activities or getting rowdie at pep assemblies are some of the favorites. A question of upperclassmen is, do any of the freshmen have spirit? Kelly Traxler said, Half the freshman are full of spirit, but the other half just doesn ' t care. Meredith Hess thinks, We ' re really spirited because we ' re so enthusiastic. Their first pep assembly came and went. According to Jeff Highfield, Having spirit is wearing LaSalle on your shirt. Nicole Gains says, The girls have spirit but boys don ' t. Nicole also thinks I school spirit means, showing how much you appreciate your school and showing your pride in school! Despite being new, the freshmen class of 1985 is catching on pretty fast. Who knows, this crowd of freshmen may be the most spirited class yet! 140 Freshmen MERRIWEA THER-NOWOSTA WSKI Left freshman students cheer and raise their arms to show their spirit. — photo by Root Photographers Top Elaine Harper claps her hands and smiles for the camera during our pep assembly. — photo by Will Tieman O ' Nell, Kevin Ortyl, John Overpeck, Amy Overpeck.

Most of the freshmen of 1986 expected harder work than they received last year. As Alvin Walker put it, I expected it to be harder and therefore I have to work harder to attain my goal and be known. And he ' s right. Mr. John Bogucki comments, Some of you are smarter than you look. Mr. Kosana stated, They are like any other freshmen, and be- ing freshmen they have alot to learn and they will learn. Mr. Nelson replies, They are enthusiastic, outgoing and excited about being in a new school. Of course they are looking forward to being upperclassmen. Some freshmen such as Telina Mason pro- claimed, I really didn ' t know what to ex- pect. Other freshmen like David Hemig ad- ded, I really didn ' t think it would be any- thing different from middle school. An- other comment was made by Mandy Blasko and Michelle Hurley, Getting harassed by upperclassmen is part of being a freshman. Whatever anyone thinks, high school is very different from middle school. It re- quires a lot more work and responsibility. Teachers expect you to act more mature. All of the grade school days are behind you. So whatever you expected out of High School you know it won ' t be easy.

Bob ophomore Wise Fools Being a Sophomore — wise fool — is better than being a freshman because people don ' t treat you as a nobody, says Lisa Chudzicki. Being one more step up the pro- verbial four runged high school ladder has it ' s advantages. As a sophomore, school can be enjoyed without worrying about fresh- men problems: harrassment, getting lost in the maze of halls at the new school, and the overpowering fright of the unknown. Another good thing about being a sopho- more is the freshmen usually come to their big brothers and sisters, the sophomores, for advice and help. Freshmen don ' t dare ask an upperclassman for fear of being teased. So who do they — go to? Sopho- mores!! You feel like a leader, says Ellis Howell with a smile. The change from a freshman to a sopho- more is a difficult one though. You have more responsibilities, states Keilawn Car- others. Gail Martin exclaims, It seems like they throw all the hard classes at you when you ' re a sophomore. Geometry and chemis- try especially! The second step of the journey to gradu- ation is one filled with good times and new experiences. Freshmen have a lot to look forward to. Ruth Milchurska sums it up best as she says, Being a sophomore is really great!! . 148 Sophomores ADAMSBIRTWH1STLE Blade, Cathy Blain. Phil ' Blossom, Tamara Botello, Norma Bourdon, Mark Bradburn.

X J7 pper Lower Classmen Knowing The Ropes Juniors and seniors have long been the upperclassmen and the freshmen the bot- tom. This leaves the sophomores. No longer on the bottom, sophomores are the upper- lower classmen according to Carman West. Few think that being an underclassmen is anything special, but Christi Skees voices a different outlook. Walking through the doors of LaSalle high school as a freshman was a great feeling, but as a sophomore the experience is far more exciting and promis- ing. As pompous as it may seem coming from a sophomore, these people do have superiority over someone, Rob Chambers puts this feeling into words, I feel superior to the freshmen because I know where I ' m going, and a lot of the time they look lost. Climbing the academic ladder from the second rung to the top requires students like Kim Sorukas to ask ques- tions and exercise self discipline to keep up with the assignments.

These are novelties that might help you remember the great or not so great times at LaSalle High School. When some Lions were asked about buying their class rings only three said they weren ' t planning on purchasing them. These students gave general reasons for not buying a ring, among these were, they ' re a waste of money , there are better things to spend your mon- ey on, or I don ' t really need one. A class ring has special meaning to different peo- ple. When I wear this ring I ' m going to remember all the great times I ' ve had in high school, stated Tammy Speeks. It will al- ways hold many memories for me , added Donna Smuda. When a LaSalle student buys his or her class ring they should remember, This is not just an object, this is something that tells who you are. A Daily reminder of your- self, as Kym Bajdek put it. After you decide to buy your class ring you are hit with many more questions some of which are, What color stone should I choose, red for school colors, or maybe my birthstone? And then there is always what activity to choose. For those who are very active this may be the biggest decision of them all. When your ring is on order it seems like forever before a call is received to pick it up. Some parents decide to get the ring for their children ' s birthday or Christmas, so for them it might be a longer wait. Finally with ring on finger there is one more question to face. How long will I wear this ring, or have this ring? This is a question that applies to boyfriends and girlfriends. Many times when people go together, they exchange rings. Kevin Benhart plans to give his girlfriend his class ring. Virginia Haggen agrees, My boyfriend will get mine even if he doesn ' t have one to give me. Originally, the class ring came in one sin- gle style for the entire class. The jeweler simply cast a larger and more masculine version of the girl ' s ring for the boys. The only common element being the year of graduation. Hill. Lot, Hoggard. Brian Hold, Sandy Holy, Robyn Holycross, Michele Horn, Tamiko Horvath, Terri Houston. Bonita Howell.

A creature from outer space? No, just a student who has forgotten to study and chooses cheating over a bad grade. A closer look at our culprit The cheat- er looks up from his empty test and glances around hoping for a correct answer. If one does not readily appear he issues a frantic whisper for help to his neighbor. What do students cheat on? Students who wish to remain nameless said, Homework I didn ' t have time to do the night before or those unexpected pop quizzes. Expecting honesty, some teachers don ' t patrol their classrooms. Ironically this may make for more chances to cheat. Students commented, They sit at their desk and work on their lessons. Billy Meniweather said. Kenneth Russell stated, They don ' t seem to notice everything you do. These teachers can also leave the room which buys a little time. Teachers can prevent cheating by walk- ing around the classroom staring at you, stated Kevin Mills. When you ' re absent and come back the next day you ' re given a dif- ferent test, recommended Derrick White. Tammy Cribbs stated, They space you away from the other students. A lot of the time students don ' t intention- ally cheat, but find their eyes wandering to the desk beside them. In this case LaSalle students should be prepared for the conse- quences regardless of how unplanned the cheating was. In all classrooms, the imagi- nary creature has and will continue to tempt every student. Beware! Jones. Erskine Jones, Gavin Jones, Marne Jones, Sarah Karczewski.

The waiting and impatience grows stron- ger as the years and months slowly progress, growing to it ' s worst about 2 months before the much awaited birthday. After that it ' s a countdown, to which friends are informed, Only 28 more days! , or only two more weeks! Finally the big day comes, usually met with a surprise party or other such fes- tivities. After this awestriken age has been reached, the proud recipient goes around searching out younger people and asking their age. When the young age is given, the sixteen year old informs the younger person of his or her age, they gasp and comment on how lucky they are. For Garry Clayton being sixteen means, Getting my license and maybe even a car. Regan Luther says, My mom won ' t have to drive me everywhere. Most sophomores agree that being sixteen means a car and freedom. For a girl her sweet sixteen birthday is probably the most cherished moment of her teenage life. It ' s a halfway point meaning that this emotionally tough phase of life will soon be over and to hang on because you ' re doing a good job. Michele Mulkey believes, People start treating you like you ' re a lot older, plus you get to stay out more. Jimmy Albright states, Getting to drive is the biggest thrill when turning sixteen. Dating is probably next on a persons list of advantages that occur when the age of sixteen is reached. Finally being able to go out to a late night movie or a party with a girl or boy friend is something everyone dreams of. Teenage years are so rough, with all their new experiences, lessons to be learned and big changes, that it ' s nice to know there ' s something to look forward to in the middle of this growing time.

The car is probably the biggest awaited privilege dreamed about through pre-teen years. Many students take drivers education, but learning to drive is not all fun and games. Learning to drive takes time and knowl- edge of the road. The Indiana law requires that each drivers ' education student have at least thirty classroom hours and one test per week. Here is how some felt about their training. You spend too much time in the class- room and not enough time behind the wheel, stated Tom VanHeesbeck. I hated having to do homework over the summer, commented Michele Mulkey. Barb Gay absolutely hated having to drive below the speed limit. Drivers Ed prepares you for the road, believes Deanna Laureys. It makes you aware of what to watch out for, like the accidents you could avoid get- ting into, Gail Martin said. Leslie Waters didn ' t think it was a total waste of the summer, You get to meet a lot of new people, and you have a lot of fun. These students, like many others believe it ' s a pretty small price to pay for your ticket to freedom. Schiffer, David Schweizer, Andrea Scott. Bethany Scott.

Scott Class Of ' 88 obs Money For Everything Jobs are essential to some kids if they want money, It gives a greater indepen- dence because you don ' t have to go to mom or dad for money, stated Sue Robbins. Ralph Stanley who works at the Canton House believes, working is a good learning experience. He also says he works to save for college. Working at the Notre Dame Concessions has it ' s advantages Lissa Orem knows, I meet a lot of new people and go to all the games free. Cissy Davis who en- joys her job as a Sunday school helper, I don ' t like to change baby ' s diapers, but I love being with kids. When people earn the money from the jobs they worked so hard at they save it for college, buy clothes, or go out with the gang . Having a job means responsibility, and responsibility is one step closer to adulthood or freedom . No matter what job a person holds, it opens a door to his future. A future in which they support themselves and rely on their own abilities. 160 Sophomores WALKOWSKl-ZYGULSKl Top right Henry Mark smiles while figuring the profit of the day ' s work. — photo by Will Tieman Top left Sophomore, Christ!

Some are the same gray metal both inside and out. Others, however, are entirely covered with pictures and pin-ups, leaving no metal to be seen. A student ' s locker is the only thing at L.H.S. he can call his own and what an individual does with that locker makes a statement, however, obvious or subtle, about his personality. There are various reasons for both decorated and nondecorated lockers. Let ' s take a look at what some SENIORS had to say about their lockers. . If my locker wasn ' t decorated, I ' d go nuts! It breaks the monotony of the gray hallways. — Beth Lutz topics. My locker represents what I believe in and how I feel about certain — Debbie Machnowski My locker isn ' t decorated.

He was assisted by vice-president, Megar Chappel; treasurer, Michele Means; secretary, Kim Phillips; chairman of the executive board, Sharon Chlebek; and the executive board. Some of the tasks these leaders undertook were manning the con- cession stands at home basketball games, a Christmas flower fund raiser, and a spring candy sale. The money that was raised in these sales went toward the 1986 Junior- Senior Prom and a gift for the school. The dedicated officers of 1986 put in much hard work and were rewarded by making their last year the best ever.

It was the teacher who would not accept mediocrity and gently guided them to their fullest potential. Sophomore Patty Brien says her special teacher, is understanding and always there to be a friend and help in any way she can . Mr. Sacchini is easy to talk to, stated Junior Shawn Pittman. Teachers can be nice, commented Sophomore Jody Har- mon. Class duties per se end with the ringing of the 2:55 bell, but this is not where teaching ends. Grading papers, helping students, and sponsoring an organization or coaching a competitive sport, keeps a teacher in special touch with the students. Head Football Coach Mr. Wally Boocher believes, my team is like a family. He hopes that my values rub off on the kids. Newspaper sponsor Miss Ann Korb says when sponsoring a group, you get to know the students in an informal setting; they re- spond better. She says she, really enjoys it. Mr. Nat Pittman, head basketball coach, says he enjoys helping the students and hopes, the criticism I give is corrective. Counselors can have an important influ- ence too. Mrs. Anita Landry shows her dedi- cation to the students by her sponsoring Stu- dents Against Driving Drunk (S.A.D.D.) and Survival Inc. Even teachers not sponsoring or coaching spend after school hours with students. Mrs. Barbara May has kept the typing room open on Wednesdays for everyone for the past two years, and Miss Joanna Larson keeps the library open on Tuesdays for all Lions ' use. Maybe not all LaSalle students recognize their teachers as friends during the rigors of the class. But, in their futures looking back on the formative years of high school, possi- bly they can see that the driving, demanding teacher was helping them to secure a worth- while future. Possibly, they can understand why a sponsor or coach accepted only re- sponsible and meaningful performance, for those are the foundations of a mature adult. Faculty Section Division Page SBCSC Lights are dimmed, the curtain opens, and the stage fills with smoke, a man emerges. Dr. Robert A. Fallon is this man to the South Bend Community School Corporation. He doesn ' t intend to deceive as a magician, but to deal with people and their problems as the new superintendent. Dr. Fallon comments on his feelings of South Bend I like South Bend very much. The people are nice and have gone out of their way to make me, my wife, and my daughter feel welcome. Comparing South Bend with his previous appointment Rapid City School System, Dr. Fallon states that although both of the sys- tems have good effective schools and dedi- cated administrators and staff, that SBCSC is more extensive in teaching than Rapid City. Before coming into the school system Dr. Fallon had many expectations. Before I came here I saw quality people and pro- grams. I got to talk to people to get a good view of the corporation, so there was no big surprises. It was much as I expected it to be. There are no major changes I can make. There are lots of good things, so I can only improve on what ' s already there. I hope to finish the staff development program and I want to include more teachers to focus on the needs of the students and district. Reacting to the teachers threat of a strike early in the fall, Dr. Fallon replied, I under- stood what the teachers were asking for and also what the school corporation was offer- ing. I felt a fair settlement would be reached and that was proved by the teachers votes. I hope that through this we can respect the teachers more. I did. The nature of my job is dealing with people and their problems. It ' s a part of my life, so it was no bother. I, myself and the rest of the administration, all dealt with the threat of strike positively and we walked out with a higher respect for the teachers. Besides being an avid bridge player, Dr. Fallon also enjoys woodworking and cabinet making. With the little freetime he does have he also enjoys a little Leisure de main, which in French translates, slight of hand or the magical art. Dr. Fallon has made a concerted effort to get to know the students and staff on the various campuses throughout the corpora- tion. During American Education Week he taught Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, and As- surance Math at Washington for the day. At LaSalle he spoke at the National Honor So- ciety Induction Banquet. Taking time out for one of his hobbies. Dr. Robert A. Fallon performs his slight of hand as he makes a bottle of liquid paper disappear into thin air. — photo by Root Photographers Mr. James Ashley, Director of Plan- ning and Research Mr. Ron Bella, Di- rector of Athletics and P.E.

Likewise, being a principal, one has the dis- advantage of not knowing all the students. I feel guility that I don ' t know everyone, it ' s so hard to get to know 1400 students, Dr. Hudson admits. Although she does not know all the stu- dents of LaSalle on an individual basis she does care for the LaSalle student body as a whole. Her primary goal is, to see the stu- dents more academically inclined. Dr. Stella Batagianis hopes to influence students to, see the importance of educa- tion, she would also like to, assist in achieving academic success. Dr. Batagianis did this by promoting the Academic Decath- alon. Mr. William Gilkey said before becoming an asst. principal he was a teacher and en- joyed, giving young people a positive atti- tude. But then, he said, I wanted to have more of an impact on the students so I became a principal. Keeping with the Lantern ' s theme the principals drew upon their own experience (memories) and advised the students not to forget to, Practice good interperson rela- tionships and maintain a good sense of direc- tions. (Gilkey) There is more than the 3R of education here at LaSalle, remember to gain and not lose responsibility to ones self and others. (Batagianis) Don ' t forget the many, many different people who have helped you, not only teachers but hall moni- tors, cafeteria ladies, custodians and secre- tarys. They also play an important part in your lives, Dr. Hudson reminds. Above Dr. Stella Batagiannis and Mr. William Gilkey smile as they are proud to be the vice principals of the roaring LaSalle Lions. — photo by Will Tieman Right Principal Dr. Johnetta Hudson dediccates her time to being a outstanding leader, good influence and fellow lion. — photo by Root photographers 198 FACULTY SECTION LASALLE Mrs. Linda Archambault Mar- keting Mrs. Darlene Bana- siewicz Cafeteria Mrs. Diana Barnett Teachers S.S.

All of them so important to each- person in the LaSalle family yet probably the most unrecognized group within this school. Do you realize what these people do for you and LaSalle? Imagine cooking supper everyday. Now imagine cooking for approximately 1591 people. This is what the cafeteria ladies do everyday. LaSalle ' s ; curity guards may not have 200 FACULTY SECTION LASALLE the fast pace lives of Sonny Crocket or Ricco Tubbs as on Miami Vice, but they do have their own crime problems. Stealing, stop- ping fights, and keeping the halls cleared within the school are a few of these prob- lems LaSalle security guards solve with their own gentle persuasion. Did you ever try to clean a house? How about a 234.076 square foot two story house? This is a job the custodians have to face. Every night they clean this huge build- ing only to find it a disaster area the next day from students, staff, and general public. Feel grateful you have these capable peo- ple working within your school. Keeping a watchful eye on the mercury in the thermom eter, Mr. Eustren Woodford battles the hopeless task o, keeping all of LaSalle comfortable. — photo by Will Tiemar Miss Johanna Larson Li- brarian Mr. Henry Lawshea Head Custodian Mr. Harry Leu andou ski lf i D r.Mrs. Linda Lizzi Home Ec.

The bus drivers are ready to pick up the students in the rain, snow, sleet, or any kind of weather So. Bend may bring. This takes dedication from the drivers who get the stu- dents to school and take them home every- day. We often take for granted these people, but where would we be without them? For many students, the bus is their only means of transportation to and from school and after school activities. These drivers are dedicated to getting students to La Salle and home again every day. — photo by Root Photographers FACULTY SECTION LASALLE 201 Mr. Scott Sill Learning Strat. Mrs. Susan Sipotz P.E.

But we are not speaking of old songs we are speaking of the people in LaSalle that have been here since the school was opened. These people stuck to it through thick and thin. All the bad times, good times, memo- ries, and changes. Orchestra director, Mr. Zeal Fisher, comments The whole physical shape of LaSalle has changed, there was no band or orchestra room, no auditorium, and the small cafeteria was an open courtyard. Since that time the auditorium, small cafete- ria, band and orchestra wing, and a science wing have all been added Faculty Section LaSalle There have been lots of staff changes. We ' ve had three principals, the third, Dr. Hudson. The 1960 ' s were a time of disturbance and there were a lot of fights. When asked about the changes of students Mr. Harry Lewandowski states, The kids are basically the same, I mean kids will be kids. Although the student body hasn ' t changed there have been significant changes. The people who have been at the school since it opened, September 1964, have seen these changes and watched the school literally grow up during its 21 years. Miss Johanna Larson has been helping students check out books ever since the school opened in 1964. — photo by Will Tieman B B Rubbish Removal Beacon Bowl Pro Shop Brandt Shell Butler Bolt C B Specialists Century 21 Caldwell Banker Felder, Dr. James C.

We, as a nation, watched with pride as the shuttle to flight, ' ♦ And that pride soon joined hands with awe at the beauty of the sight. But now, we as a nation mourn the loss of the Challenger Seven , Who, in a way we never dreamed, have finally reached their heaven. Though the loss is great indeed — father, mother, neighbor and friend Let us not forget what they left behind the day of their fateful end. We must continue to grow in their knowledge and salute their bravery, honor their pioneer spirit carry on their dream, For though they are gone in body, they are forever in our hearts and time can never take away the legacy of the team. On January 28, 1986 Francis R. Scobee, Michael J. Smith, Judith A. Resnik, Ronald E. McNair, Eliison S. Onizuka, Gregory B. Jarvis and Christa McAuliffe lost their lives in a firery explosion of the Shuttle Challenger. A shocked nation watched in horror as these brave pioneers became the first crew to perish in the air during a space flight. Though we mourn along with their families and friends, not only has a nation, but worldwide as well, may we also rejoice in their spirit and carry on their dreams.

The 1984 decision of the Indiana State Legislature banning any activity which was not devoted to education- al purposes was altered to reinstate pep rallies and other assemblies. For the freshman class, the SBCSC raised the graduation re- quirements four credits. These cred- its were added to English, math and science. In the sports world things were on the move with everything else. Pete Rose vaulted Ty Cobb ' s record for the most hits during a single career with 4,192 hits. At LaSalle, David White wrestled to a state championship in the 155 weight class. In addition, Michael Smith shone for the Lions with an athletic scholarship to play Notre Dame basketball. When LaSalle students weren ' t at work or attending school activities they were cruising the McKinley Strip. However, parents and busin- esses located in this area showed concern for this pastime. In 1985 the answer to this came when Greg Alan ' s Off the Strip opened it ' s doors to the teenage public. As all years must, 1985 came to an end. But only on the calendar. Each time you look through this Lan- tern, something will spark your mem- ory, and you Won ' t Forget! History might well record 1985 as a year of movement. Mother Nature had things moving in the universe as well as at home base. Haley ' s Comet made it ' s reap- pearance for the first time since it last graced the heavens 79 years ago in 1907. In early October a tornado threw it ' s fury at South Bend. Some La- Salle students were made aware of this force when they returned to their homes after school practices to find their houses without porches or roofs. Because of charitable concerts during 1985, many hearts and pock- etbooks were moved toward the hungry of the world, especially those in drought striken Africa. Live Aid, a world wide televised concert, brought in $7.5 million. We are the World was a song heard on many radios which reminded everyone to take an active role in showing con- cern for the needy of the world. All proceeds from record and promo- tional poster sales were designated for famine relief. Politics as is their nature, wavered from their past. On the national lev- el, President Ronald Reagan met with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorba- chev in Geneva. There they dis- cussed the limitations of nuclear arms, cultural exchanges, and future meetings. This was Reagan ' s first meeting with the Russians in five years of his presidency.
