DALY 4 With an inordinate vitality and energy, directed by a mind incredibly agile, guided by a deep faith in the ideals of Christian education, this man’s capacity for action has affected all of our lives. All he has done is to lead a group of dedicated men to found La Lumiere School. He realized long ago that in any field a man can provide community leadership. A banker by profession, his zeal for others, particularly in the field of education, has brought a kind of solid action to our community too infrequently seen. His own pursuit of excellence has been rewarded by his selection by the University of Lausanne to pursue a doctoral degree in international banking. No award or commemoration could ever define the measure of gratitude owed him. It is our sincere hope, however, that he know that no La Lumiere student shall ever leave the school without understanding the startling significance of what he has done here. We will strive, by the kind of men we hope to become, to demonstrate how we feel about La Lumiere School, and the man most directly responsible for its exist¬ ence. It is with most grateful admiration that the staff makes its first dedication of a Lamplighter—to the President of the La Lumiere School Board of Trustees, Mr. Raymond E. Daly.

C.W. Eliot MR. JAMES R. MOORE HEADMASTER I? Larger, perhaps more sophisticated editions of the Lamplighter will surely mark future years. Most certainly no issue will carry greater significance than this fourth book, celebrating the Charter Class. Great praise goes to the Lamplighter Staff for so fully revealing within these covers the tangible evidence of the remarkable spirit and leadership this Charter Class afforded our school. Perhaps this book is each Sixth Former’s real diploma, a documentary of excel¬ lence, a record of how to make real an idea for life. The legacy they leave La Lumiere will be defined each time we look back to the Lamplighter of 1968. The success of this class, as a group and as individuals, provides me, the faculty, and the Board of Trustees a warm confidence for the La Lumiere of years ahead. James R.

Schedule Dual Meets Washington Township Kouts Jackson Township Tournament Detroit Country Day School Invitational LaLumiere 33, South Central 26 LaLumiere Wrestlers Celebrate First Win Over A Marian Team There was bedlam at aLu- miere school Wednesday as the wrestling squad defeated Misha¬ waka Marian, 33 to 19, to give its school its initial triumph over a Marian athletic team after four years of trying in all sports. LaLumiere, just a fraction as big as Marian, had gone 0-3 in baseball and 0-2 in football, basketball and wrestling against Marian in previous athletic meetings. As Coach Dave Kirkby put it, “The win was as big a thing for us yesterday as the South Central game was. It was our first win after four years of trying to beat them in some¬ thing.” The reference to South Central had ■ to do with LaLu- miere’s football triumph over South Central this fall when both were unbeaten. It was the only blemish on the Satellites’ record. Like the South Central grid victory, the wrestling triumph was achieved by coming from behind. Marian jumped into a quick 16-5 lead and still led, 19-10, entering the 145-pound match. But from that point on, the Leopards were unbeatable. Paul Wing, a 6-4, 180-pound sophomore who has been eyed by basketball coach Roir De- Nardo, picked up the clinching victory by pinning his man in 2:26. Coach Kirkby calls - Wing a youngster “with tremendous po¬ tential. He has improved rapid¬ ly in every meet.” Raising their record to 3-0 Wednesday were Doug Given, Jerry Noel, Jim DeMartini, Jim Kunzler and George Frye. Given is 10-0 in his two-year career. All of Frye’s wins have been by pins. The Leopards now stand 2-1 for the season, but will not have another match until Jan. 16 at home against North Liberty. A home match against North Jud- son had been added to the sched¬ ule for Jan. 31 and the basket¬ ball-wrestling doubleheader at Indianapolis Park school March 2 has been changed to Feb. 10.

Last year, for example, the Leopards defeated Howe Mili¬ tary school, 18-12, on a tum¬ bling catch in the end zone with just 33 seconds left in the game. The Leopards bettered that one last night, however, as they scored three times in the final quarter to stun South Central, 33-26, in a wild battle of unbeat- ens played before a big crowd at the South Central field. The clincher came with 18 seconds left. The triumph gave LaLumiere a 3-0 record this fall and ex¬ tended its two-year unbeaten streak to seven games. La¬ Lumiere has only 65 students in four grades and is believed to be the smallest school in Indi¬ ana playing 11-man football. First Setback South Central tasted its first loss in four outings this fall. The Satellites travel to LaVille next Friday night, while LaLumiere plays host to Indianapolis Park a week from today at 1 p. m. South Central scored in each of the first three quarters to take a 26-13 lead into the last period. LaLumiere’s defense had been hitting the Satellites hard, however, and late in the •game South Central suffered some key injuries. LaPorte sophomore halfback Mike Birkholz scored three touchdowns for LaLumiere — on runs of three and four yards and an 85-yard return of an inter¬ cepted pass—but the winning touchdown came with only 18 seconds left on a five-yard run by Jay Nowrocki. f LaLumiere coach Ron De- Nardo, a former football letter- man at Notre Dame, exclaimed, “That was one of the greatest games I’ve seen. They stymied us in the first half, but we just rolled right over them in that last quarter.” Line Play Terrific LaLumiere’s line play was terrific and appeared to wear the Satellites down. DeNardo termed it “a tremendous team effort.” Bill O’Connor led with 9V 2 defensive points, while Birk¬ holz had 6% and Greg Stephan six. South Central’s defensive leaders were Bob Clark, Mike Niksch, Steven Allen and Dick Wright. It was a hearbreaking loss for the Satellites, who got tremen¬ dous aerial efforts from senior quarterback Chuck Emerick, who had a hand in all 26 of his team’s points. Emerick hit eight of 12 passes for 230 yards and three touchdowns, scored a touchdown and kicked two extra points. Dennis Yagelski (36 yards), Steve King (25 yards) and Niksch (52 yards) caught the touchdown passes. South Central had a minus-14 yards rushing. LaLumiere, in contrast, gained 212 yards rushing and only 61 through the air.
