THE LAUREL Loretto in Kansas City 1967 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION .... 4 FACULTY........5 ACTIVITIES....19 STUDENT LIFE ... 29 STUDENTS......41 SENIORS........55 CLOSING........63 LORETTO IS . . . What is Loretto? Is it a school or an institution? It's hard to describe Loretto concisely. Loretto is the endless hallways and windows. It's the electricity- charged lockers and stretched carpet. Loretto is getting the last cushion and then having to share it. It's the spirited Student Council elections, the tense volleyball games, the Senior's signed blouses, the tears at their last Trophy Assembly. Loretto is a warm gretting, a tearful good-bye, a smile. Loretto is three hundred and sixty-five students working as one. Loretto is life, and it's love. It has shared its life with the students, faculty, and friends of Loretto. We have this life. It's a part of us and we will pass it on to everyone we meet, because this is what Loretto teaches us—to be people, alive and full of love. LORETTO IS 5 Sister Venard oversaw not only the building of her students' lives, but also the new building they occupied from 8:35 AM to 3:04 PM. Sister Andre cheered students up by greeting them in the lunch line and in the halls. Sister also took care of school money matters. THE ACTION KIDS The first year at the new Loretto involved a tremendous amount of organization. With Sister Venard as principal, the administration accomplished great things in trying to get this new Loretto off in the right direction. Mrs. Trussler did an almost single-handed job in the office, solving myriads of problems for many people. Sister Andre, Sister Ellen Patricia, and Mrs. Stone were especially indispensable during this unique and often upsetting first year. Mrs. Trussler joined us at L.A. late in the year but she stepped quickly into the difficult work in the office. We were glad to have her with us. 6 The new resource center and Alumnae Association were in Sister Ellen Patricia's care this year. Mrs. Stone returned again this year to run the switch- board. Her job in 1967 also included being secretary and receptionist in the convent. A new face around Loretto this year was the kind one of Father Arnold Blaes. One of the greatest things about Father was that he was always around to talk with us, to go to lunch with us, to give us the sacraments, and help us out with dances. He also took over several of our gym classes and walked with us ( and sometimes without us ) to Blue Ridge Extension. He was a compliment to Loretto spirit. 7 A new member of the English Department this year was Miss Stone. She instructed seventh and eighth graders in the basic tools of writing and grammar. In Oral Interpretation, the students learned one of the basics of public speaking.-lowering their voice registers. CREATION AND CREATIVITY In the English Departmant this ear was con- ducted an experiment in learning—Phased English, This meant that there were Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors in the same English class, studying together and learning to know each other at the same time. By changing instructors at the beginning of each quarter, the students were able to get several views on the literature they were studying. Mr. Sullivan's contributions to his English classes, Oral Interpretation classes and the Drama Club proved to be invaluable. Finding out that another term paper was due in two weeks added joy to the lives of these Loretto Seniors. “God Is Living was the basic theme of Sister Judith Mary's religion classes. Sister also carried this theme into her French and English classes. With understanding and an added bit of humor, Sister writing. Her religion classes were conducted on a Joann conducted Phased English and religion classes. personal level with small groups. Under Sister's direction, twice weekly the Seniors learned the techniques of clear and concise short story and essay 9 COM M I'N ICATION Loretto is learning to express yourself—in Latin, French or Spanish, as well as in English. Studying a language m?ans films, tapes, books, magazines, records, songs, poster, a couple of skits, and even some traditional grammar and vocabulary. This year in the new language lab students used ear phones and tape recorders to improve their listening skills. Sister Alexandrine used the modern methods of teaching a modern language, such as films and tapes, but she didn’t neglect the old fashioned method of individual attention. Sister Joan was kept busy this year by Loretto’s more than two hundred French students and Mr, McGrath, a student teacher from Rockhurst College. French dictation was given to improve both spell- ing and pronunciation. Help is often needed when one studies a foreign language, and Sister Alexandrine is always available when it is most needed. Sister Mary Ann returned to her hometown and to her alma mater when she came to Loretto this year. A ‘52 graduate, she fit well with the spirit of Loretto, especially when moderating the Sophomore class. Her wittly remarks and puns made her Latin and religion classes truly unique experiences. THE MINDS AND THE TIMES In a sociology class, in the Junior homeroom, and at Brown’s center on twelfth street. Sister Maureen’s open exuberance reached out and seemed to touch everyone. Miss Rush, a new teacher at Loretto this year, attempted to instill a profound appreciation of history in the Juniors. The History-Sociology Department, staffed by Sister Maureen, Sister Marie Victoria, Miss Rush, and Mr, Rashey Moten, brought universality to its students by making alive the past and its wisdom, the present and its confusion, and the future and its promises. Interest was often at a peek as various projects were undertaken. Sister Marie Victoria's history class made old newspapers to recreate the past. Sister Maureen's sociology class made a trek to Ward Parkway to view a national poverty exhibit. Mr. Moten and his current affairs classes engaged in some very stimulating discussions. Miss Rush's Juniors probed American History. This year was a timely one. 12 Sister Marie Victoria's seventh grade added a new freshness to old news as they made historical newspapers. Mr. Moten brought {o his current affairs class a reali- zation of the necessity of our being involved in our society today. He showed that personal contact with our neighbor and understanding dissolves all barriers Creativity abounded in Sister Marie Victoria's history courses as well as her art, her vibrant guitar, and her exciting photography. of inequality. His insight into international affairs gave a deeper knowledge of our country's foreign policies. 13 Sister Sylvia, in spite of her many classes, always kept cool and even found time to talk with and get to know her students. Sister Eugenie’s vitality passed on to her students and they, too, became engrossed in their work. 14 DREAM ERS--DOERS Sister Sylvia Mary, in the Business Depart- ment, taught the girls the importance of trying in whatever career they wished to tackle. In art, a new wave of freedom was experienced. Fresh and exciting ideas prevailed as our young Van Goghs were able to express themselves with wood, clay, watercolor, or charcoal. Bursting with vitality. Sister Eugenie easily sculptured a living form. In her classes the students learned to appreciate life through art. Songs like Sweet Love Doth Now Invite were practiced and practiced until perfection was reached. Sister John Patrice, known throughout Loretto for both her quick wit and her talking violin, plays and also teaches almost every musical instrument. This year Sister Jonathan made her debut on Kansas City television along with her Glee Club. ECHOINGS Someday in the future there is hope for a Loretto school band so this year Sister John Patrice began by teaching various instru- ments including violin and drums. Basic music appreciation was learned as the Freshman and Sophomores studied jazz and brought their own records to listen to. «[«11!« In the spirit of discovery, Mrs. Leonard gave students an appreciation of math. Individual attention was the element which saved many math students. NUMBERS, ATOMS AND MOLECULES The new Loretto meant new things for the Science Department. Math classes for the first time had all the blackboard space they needed. Biology and chemistry students marveled at the new labs, even though they weren't equipped until January. The physics class was another first this year. Mrs. Pittard was added to the Math Department this year to accommodate the large number of seventh, eighth, and ninth graders taking modern math and algebra. 16 Wry smile and dry wit are Sister Ann Michela. Her ability to solve a girl's problems, scientific and otherwise, made her invaluable. When you talked to Sister Joan Clare about life in a tree or a human being, her eyes lighted up. Sister filled us with this marvel for life, too. Miss Frances Nally was a new member of the faculty this year to be a novel class to say the least. Miss Nally also and she taught a new subject at Loretto--physics. It proved taught science to the children in Loretto's Lower School. 17 M USC LI MANEUVERS And Mrs. Empson didn't believe any of her girls could do it! This year's gym classes were unique events. Anything was liable to happen. Many times Father Arnold led walks up to Avila or Blue Ridge. There were no basketball goals, so volleyball and tumbling became the main winter activities. Once again Mrs. Empson tried to instill equilibrium in her students. 18 S|B06 J3l| 3A3{ip£ O) ..peag J3i| uo pusis., U3A3 p,3qs--3dpqs poo6 u| S|J|6 o 3joi 6u|d3s i joj 3|q;suods3j sbm uosduJ3 'sjiaj 19 STUDENT GOVERNM ENT The Student Council and Senate were surely kept busy during the first year in the new building. There were old laws to be re- pealed and new ones to be added. The major project of the year was the establishment of the new Honor System. The Council con- sidered Loretto's Honor System of the past three years and also those of other schools; they took one suggestion from here, one from there and came up with the idea of Honor System by application. The system has been functioning since the end of January and with marked success. There were over 200 students on the Honor System by fourth quarter.

ATHLETICS CLUB Athletics Club this year sponsored various weekend activities, such as, roller skating, horseback riding and even a mixer. The club also sponsored the class competition in sports. The main activity was volleyball which lasted all year; due to the fact that there were no basketball goals in the gym. At the end of the year was Field Day. All the preparations were made by the Athletics Club - they even cooked the hot dogs. Not knowing an alert cameraman was around, an LA Sen- ior sneaked a second hot dog on Field Day. Athletics Club sponsored a banquet at the Golden Ox The Miss Athletics award and other letters and bars with Johnny Robinson of the Chiefs as guest speaker. were given out by the club officers. 2 DRAMA CLUB Diana (Carol Nolte) makes a play for Wintergreen (Mike Pace) in the musical Of Thee I Sing. Practice makes perfect. With this in mind, the dancers spent hours rehearsing to gain grace and rhythm. Wintergreen decides that Mary (Gail Schroeger) is the one for him and the beautiful Diana is jilted. The Drama Club this year was moderated by John Sullivan, a professional actor and teacher at Loretto. At the beginning of the year, three Loretto girls participated in a play at Rockhurst My Three Angels. Immediately after, plans were launched for a musical to be held in the Spring. Of Thee I Sing was presented after months of tiring effort on the part of over one-hundred Loretto and Rockhurst students. Due to its success, more productions are planned for the future in- volving the two schools. Working behind the scenes was Claudia Cameron, Getting the appropriate costume for each cast member who helped make one hundred decorative posters was ° ' een Sullivan, about the musical. Being jilted by Wintergreen proved to be almost too much sympathizers; but to no avail-- Wintergreen had al- for Diana. Her laments were voiced and she found many ready made his choice. 23 Rockhurst singers often came to Loretto to prac- tice, under the direction of Sister Jonathan, for the musical. m One of us may be the president's future wife, but if he doesn't choose soon, we'll all die of sore throats. GLEE CLUB The Glee Club of 1966-67 wos a small, busy, and cheerful group of cheerful people. They practiced hard every Monday and Thursday nights after school and every performance they gave bore witness to this fact. They performed their Christmas repertoire in a South- side Community Program at Center and also a one-half hour color television show which was on WDAF Dec. 25 and 27. The Glee Club also worked many hours on our musical put on with our Drama Club and Rockhurst High School. They also sang No Man is an Island , a favorite of the Seniors, and several other songs at graduation. A lot of hard work went into the musical but the per- formers also received much enjoyment. 2A Smiling bathing beauties added to the production Of Thee I Sing. Under the supervision of the various committee heads, they helped provide costumes, props, and the musical accompaniment. Chris Mayor, a Rockhurst Senior, and Pat Moten, a Loretto Freshman, provided the piano accompani- ment for Of Thee I Sing. Sisters Ann Michela and Jonathan help the Glee Club get ready for their big performance at Center High School. 25 Eagerly posing for their picture were these children from Brown's Center, who were under Catholic Action's guidance this year. RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS This year the emphasis at Loretto was on apostolic work. Each Tuesday the girls piled in their cars for trips to rest homes, recreation centers and Marillac school. Their works were varied, yet all had one purpose. To help those in need. The work was rewarding as well as useful and was done in the true Loretto spirit. 26 Finding out that the winner in the Mission Drive was the Senior Class, was an uncomplicated problem of the Mission Club. Some Louise de Marillac members patterned Johnny The group multiplied its membership this year five tines Canova. Others visited the aged or helped out at Marillac that of last year. school. A big smile was reward enough for the Catholic Action The girls usually helped out by playing games with the members who helped out at Brown’s Center this year. children or tutoring them In their lessons. 27 No, Virginia, you can't find that word you're looking for without the help of the Library Club. Barb works diligently at developing-.pictures. In the Photography Club the girls learned the art of picture taking and developing. Under the direction of Sister Ellen Patricia, the members of the Library Club contributed time to the new Resource Center. With bright orange and green cushions, sitting was made easier in the theatre, courtesy of the Home Economics Club. Two Juniors jump with joy at the prospect of viewing their own creations. 28 29 M LORETTO In choosing Dianne Donaldson as Miss Loretto, the faculty considered the qualities of enthusiasm, loyalty, generosity, responsibility, and selfless- ness® Whenever there was work to be done Dianne was there giving of her time willingly. As Sister Sylvia said, You can always depend on Dianne. The climax of her years at Loretto, Dianne re- ceived the Miss Loretto award from Father Blaes. The student body gave Dianne a standing ovation to show their congratulations. Mr. and Mrs. D. Donaldson, the proud parents of Dianne, posed for an official photograph on Trophy Day. 30 The Seniors left Oct. 28 for their Senior trip to Chicago. They stayed at the Palmer House and spent most of their time just seeing the sights of the big city. Long-haired Juniors artistically transformed the front hallway into A Street in Paris. The team went forth at the Sophomore Halloween Party. The Juniors took time out to pose for a picture under their own Eiffel Tower. 31 This Year’s retreat was unique. There was no tra- ditional silence or mandatory confession. There were enthusiastic priests and willing students to make the talks and Masses meaningful. The Seniors didn't get much sleep the night spent at school during retreat. But they can tell you how beautiful the school is at 3:30 AM in the pouring rain. The Seniors spent much time at school growing a forest from collected Christmas trees, and building a ski lodge from billboards for the Snowball. Gene Hill and The Vibrations imoressed everyone with their great music. But Cindy and Llorent just couldn't have danced all night. 32 The Father-Daughter Banquet was held at the Hotel President again this year. Len Dawson, father of Lisa Dawson, and quarterback for the AFL Champs, spoke to the girls and their fathers. The other American sport was not to be ignored. Hank Bauer, father of Bebe and manager of the champion Baltimore Orioles, was also in attendance and gave some points of sportsmanship. At the Student-Faculty Institute at the beginning of the year the members of the first honor board were chosen. 33 Four seniors and one sophomore made their debuts on television when they represented Loretto on Categories and defeated Notre Dame de Sion. Believing in the individual, Father Blaes was al- ways available to say Mass, even for very small groups. With the effort of one hundred and six Freshmen the Advent Breakfast was a huge success. Career Day provided the students a chance to look in on various occupations. The Loretto mixers were always strange affairs-- like the time nine hundred people stood motionless while others looked for a contact lens. From The Happy Wanderer to the closing medley of West Side Story ’, the Pembroke Glee Club showed un- bounding enthusiasm. After working long hours the Home Ec. classes put on a fashion show for the student body as part of Fine Arts week. With his ever helpful assistant beside him, Matthew Monks gave an art demonstration to an attentive audience. The Sister held their own Fine Arts Program in the convent for an exclusive audience. You shouldn't have done it, said Mrs. Leonard at a party commemoratinq her fifteen years at Loretto. Trying to decide how to divide on cake among scores of people was Mrs. Leonard’s hardest math problem of the year. Celebrating her fifteenth year at Loretto, a This Is Your Life program was held honoring Mrs. Florence Leonard. The as- sembly, sponsored by the Student Senate, included pictures from Mrs. Leonard's life and a surprise visit from her daughter and grandson. After roses and a gift certificate were presented, a party was held in the cafeteria. This year's Marv’s Day was bright posters, a short hike, related songs, and Mass at St. Thomas More’s celebrated by the chaplain, Father Arnold Blaes. 36 The beginning of the end for the class of '68 was the ring ceremony in May. After a concelebrated Mass, the juniors received their rings as a symbol of their years at Loretto. The day ended with a luncheon for the girls and their mothers at the Plaza III. After receiving the Miss Athletic’s Award from Father Blaes, Rosemary Schmidt gave a cool the camera look. After the installation as Student Council President for the 1967-68 term, Donna Bortnick was presented roses by her predecessor Noreen Schuepbach. 37 The high jump was an important event; but there was also the unofficial contest to see how many girls could fit in Betty's corvair - the last count? Twenty-two. The only way to keep warm on F ield Day was to enter an event and keep moving. However these girls did pause long enough so we could get a picture. The Seniors expressed their thanks for the four years of help and interest on the part of the faculty at the Faculty Appreciation Day. Ditch Day, May 9, was a well-guarded secret and the student body was surprised as the Seniors pulled up in convertibles and then ran into school, shouting and singing their class song. May 19 marked the long-awaited night of Loretto's 1967 Junior-Senior Prom. The dance, held at the top of the Commerce Towers, had music provided by Gene Hill and the Vibrations. The evening was highlighted as Jeannie McNamara, Junior class president, crowned Patty Shea Prom Queen. Patty and her two attendants, Jeannette Foster and Doretta Hughes, danced the night away to the theme, There's A Place for Us. Since weather didn't permit, graduation exercises were held inside. Commencement began with a Mass said by Father Blaes for the graduates, their families and friends. Diplomas and scholarships were then awarded. The program ended as the Seniors turned their tassels and filed out. SENIORS END IT ALL The class of '67, diplomas in hand, leaves Loretto but first they go to the reception and a final goodbye to many of their classmates. 41 Bebe Bauer—Pres. Louisa Pickett—V.P.

And last, but definitely not least, to Sister Joan whose patience, valuable time, and experience was greatly appreciated by her glue-sniffing, nail biting, hair-tearing staff.
