Adventure — cent. The Lions were defeated by Carroll with a score of 6-20. Coach Bollier said, We gave them a good fight, but we couldn ' t score when we needed to, and they broke some big runs that we couldn ' t afford to give up. However, we had the potential to win the game but didn ' t make it happen. As summed up by senior foot- ball player Wally Miazga, It was a highly emotional game. Leo ' s win- ning was not meant to be. Losing didn ' t dampen spirits. The night ended with the annual homecoming dance, which gave the students a chance to socialize with friends and sign each other ' s yearbooks. All in all, the Lions wrapped up another successful homecoming. — Chris Scheil While waiting on the sidelines, the Leo football players cheer on their teammates for a victory.

allege 1 Students Thinking Atiead Considering college, students see the need to improve grades and seek advice from their counselors. The question of a continued education was a con- sideration looming in the minds of many students. The choice among technical school, college, or uni- versity, had to be decided, depending on the indivi- dual ' s goals. Over 75 percent of Leo High School ' s senior class planned to attend one of these institu- tions. Many students were concerned about the fi- nancing of their college goals and how much the college they were interested in would cost. Students could apply for financial aid from the government in the form of grants or from various places that offer scholarships for a student ' s achievement. Students were also concerned about what colleges are looking for in a student. Colleges first look at a student ' s class rank to determine if the student has the ability to handle the college work load. Then, photo by Paul Newberg they take into consideration the G.P.A. and S.A.T. scores. Colleges basically take into account this in- formation as a whole to determine if a student is prepared to enter college. Universities such as Indi- ana, Purdue, and Ball State, which are the most pop- ular with Leo students, generally require students to be in the top half of their class. There are many mixed feelings about going to college. Ann Huguenard states, I ' ll miss the friends and the old times I leave behind . . . maybe! A group of senior girls agreed on saying, Although we are anticipating the fun and great times of college, we still have the feelings of uncertainty and at times, fear of the unknown. — Rick Ehlers Colleg bound Todd Bennett works on his assignment for Igjj rt-tlass preparing him for the difficult curriculum of ; 18 College
