Rob Harrington asks for the assistance of Betsy Smith to dress up his little brother. The initia- tion week gave freshman a good chance to meet many upperclassmen. Photos by Justin Caraway Bringing It All Back Remember back when the year started, seeing all the old and new faces. But for those who were starting there first year here, they weren’t seeing many old faces. The Freshman are the majority of the new students. They start off the year with a nervous feeling about school but gradually get used to it. “I like this school a lot better than my old school, you’re treated more like an adult,” said Jon Lomshek, Atchison, Freshman, ‘‘I wasn’t really too nervous about being around the upperclassmen because my older brother is a senior.” Other than Freshman and new students, the others who are new here would be the faculty. Maijr Hill started the year with 7 new faculty members and the Academy had 4 added to their list of teachers. These new faculty were imme- diately flushed with roomsful of unfa- miliar faces looking to them for guid- ance. The teacher then usually spends the first week trying to learn names. Eric Boll, the new Government teacher, said, “Teaching was a new experience for me, I was pretty nervous at first wondering how it would go. I really like this school though, things worked out fine.” Making sure his tie is strait, Matt Flynn checks himself over before getting his picture taken. The mirror is a very popular item on this particular day. Angie Dickason shows her class spirit by going under for an apple. The apple bobbing contest was an added attraction to the spirit week games this year. The Maur Hill Cheerleaders get the crowd rowdy at the Homecoming game. Although the Jr. Havens played well they were defeated 22-15. 2 0pening Section Dan Moriarty, one of the surprise speakers at the first pep rally speaks on the origin of team spirit. He was followed by Dan Bowen who gave instructions on how to express team spirit. For those who were not new many changes were to be seen. Such as, the art room getting a new location, or the paint jobs in some of the rooms. “I was really glad to see the changes around school, otherwise school would get more boring than it already is,” said Tom Senecal Atchison, Senior. Still some things remain the same. There are still many traditions that we follow here. Traditions such as initiation, the bonfire, and the spirit week festivi- ties. This year can be remembered for the fact that many of the Spirit Week Waiting for the next game to start the crowd sits on the edge of their seats with anticipa- tion. The tennis court games were easily won by the seniors this year. Gary Hood, representing the Juniors, goes head-to-head with Dan Bowen, a senior. The tricycle race is one of the more popular of the tennis court games. Rob Munson shows his artistic talent on the Freshman spirit sign. Al- though it was a good attempt the Freshman came in last place. Cheering for the senior girls, powder puff cheerleaders Mike Lutz and Greg Herman show their class spirit. Volleyball was played instead of football this year on account of the weather. traditions were not carried out on ac- count of the weather. Probably the most disapointing thing was the fact that the bonfire was not burned after the pep rally. Mike McConnell, Atchison, Sopho- more, said, “I was depressed when I found out we couldn’t burn the bonfire. We worked really hard to get it ready for the pep rally and then we couldn’t set it Opening Section 3 Watching the game from the track, the drivers of the Homecoming Queen candidates relax on one of the cars. These senior students were chosen for this task because of their outstand- ing driving abilities. on fire, it was a total bummer.” People in the school will not really remember this year for anything in particular, unless something that greatly effects them happens during it. The Seniors will remember this year, of course, because of graduation. The Freshman will remember it because they can’t remember any other time when they were treated more like dirt. So this 85-86 school year is a year to remember. Not for any specific reason, but for many reasons. In this book are some of them. That’s the reason behind the book, to bring the year back to you. “I think this year is going good, everyone has got spirit this year. With a few exceptions like Spirit Week getting rained out, I think this year will turn out just fine,” said Meagan Zimmerman, Whicita, Kansas, Junior. (Story by Greg Herman) Exchanging books between classes, Mark 4 Opening Section Kelly Calvert and Angie Dickason enjoy some free time in the library. Many Academy students use the library to study because they find it easier to get work done there. Waiting anxiously to get in, Scott Draine sits out for a rest. Draine is known for sticking people hard if they break through the line. Relaxing after school, Sioban Trainer studies her notes for a test the next day. Boarders find they have ample time to study in the dorms. c+aient Life School Generates Activities The life of a student is filled with many events. Seen by some to be the most important is school, while others claim that weekends are the most important. School is, by far, the biggest event in our life as a student, but the students need other things besides school to keep them busy. The school offers many activities that we participate in after school. After a hard day in classes, many people top off their day by going to football practice, or to a Student Council meeting, or maybe rehearsing the latest production of the M M players. But what a lot of students look forward to is the time they spend away from school. For boarders, weekends are a chance they get to spend some time at home. If they stay here in Atchison they go out with friends to enjoy a night away from the dorms. When the weather is nice, day hops and boarders like to spend a day in the sun at one of the local parks. No matter what we do in or out of school, students cherish their social life and enjoy the activities school generates.

Motorcycle 5 riding is one of many things students do on their free time. Initiation, Long Awaited Event All summer long, the 1985-86 Sen- iors waited almost impatiently for that first full week of school. The reason for their anxiety, freshman initiation. This is the one week during the year that the administration allows seniors to torment the freshmen. At Maur Hill, the activities started the first Monday of school and lasted all week long. Monday was sign day in which the seniors prepared large signs with somewhat humorous statements written on them in which the freshmen had to wear throughout the school days on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Tues- day was air-raid day in which Freshmen were ordered to shoot down imaginary communist aircrafts. Wednesday was Toga day, Thursday was “Hail to Seniors day.” And Friday was “Hail to Freshmen day,” which is the day all Maur Hill freshmen become official Maurite’s. At the Mount, the activities began on Tuesday, which was sign day. On Showing her best face, Denise Vasquez turns to pursue another freshman. As you can see this year’s picnic was a little messier than before. Wednesday, the Freshmen became nerds, which speaks for itself. Thursday was anything day, which brought in a multitude of different ideas. And Friday was, “be kind to your big sister” day. On Thursday, all freshmen from both Maur Hill and the Mount gathered at Jackson Park for an evening of fun. Main forms of initiation included shaving cream and water balloons. Wat- ermellon was either eaten or worn and enjoyed both ways. Jon Lomshek, Atchison, Frosh stat- ed, “Initiation was an enlightening expe- rience and I am glad that I’m only a freshman in high school once in my life.” Shane Boos, Atchison, Senior said, “When I got the hang of Frosh torture, one week just wasn’t enough.” So another year of freshman enter Maur Hill and they all dream of the year they will get to be the initiators, an event that they will be waiting for with great anticipation, (story by Mike Lasater) r ? ' • . ' r • ” Kelly Calvert begs for mercy from her big sister. By the end of the picnic many freshman were doing the same. Carl Hagen eagerly awaits the candy to be given him by Angie Dickason. This proved to be the most enjoyable type of initiation among the freshman. 6 Initiation Dancing together at Tennis Court, Dan Bowen and Mike Runyan show that Maur Hill Boys don’t always become men. These two were spotted often dancing during the slow dances. Susan Wolters closes her eyes and prays as the water balloon is tossed back to her. Many Juniors showed up for the games, but were defeated easily by the Seniors. Good Turnout to First Dance Everyone made it through the first full week of school and it was time to party. What better way to do it, than have a dance. That is what over 250 of the Mount and Maur Hill students did when they attended the annual Tennis Court Dance. The pre-dance games were won by the seniors. The games played were the tricycle race, water balloon toss, toilet paper pass, and gunny sack races. Dan Bowen, Atchison, senior said, “The Tennis Court games were well organized this year. I felt that they went off the best I have seen for quite a few years. 1 think that everyone who participat- ed enjoyed themselves and coopera- ted well.” This years dancers were enter- tained by the Kansas City KS band, City Kids. “The Tennis Court dance was a real blast. I thought the band was good, and it was a great opportu- nity for the new students to meet the people from the two schools.” said Jennifer Cavanaugh, Topeka, Ju- nior. The band continually played many hit songs that kept everyone dancing till the end of the dance. Justin Caraway, Lubbock, TX, Se- nior had this comment about the dance. “I felt Tennis Court was really exciting. The weather co- operated rather well, making it an enjoyable evening. The band played many songs that I found great to dance to. I’m glad the dance went so well this year, since it was my senior year, and I won’t be able to attend it any more.” (story by Beth Slyvest- er) Aoly Flores leads the pack at Tennis Court during one of the fast dances. The band played many fast songs which students danced to for most of the night. Angela Domann and Dan Bowen steal a moment in the night as they waltz across the finish line. The gunny sack race was also taken by the Senior Class. Tennis Court 7 Boarding Can Be A Learning Experience The feeling of the boarders towards their surroundings has to do with what their surroundings are like. Most of the boarders really like the living conditions of Maur Hill and the Academy. Being a boarder helps one pre- pare for life at college. They will have an edge because they already know what living away from home is like. Dan McGurk, Kansas City, MO, freshman said, “The first week was pretty rough. Initiation really made me feel more at home. Once I started to meet people and make new friends, I was more relaxed. Its alright being a boarder.” “When I first got here I was pretty homesick. But I got over that and made new friends. This will help me when I get older. When I got here the only person I knew was my older brother Chris. Now that I know my way around, this isn’t as bad as it seemed,” said Jason Durall, Olpe, KS, Freshman. At the Mount, boarder life is a little different than regular life as Morgan Dohne, Dallas, TX senior describes. “Being a boarder means learning to deal with lots of other people. You have very little privacy, and someone always seems to be looking over your shoulder. But then again there are good points also. Like there’s always someone around to talk to if you get bored, its like living with all of your friends, and maybe a few of your enemies. You get to know people very well. You’ll make some of the best friends of your life as a boarder, some you’ll never forget. (Story by Bill McKernan) Getting ready to go out, Denise Vasquez makes sure her hair looks alright. Weekends are something that boarders looks forward to so they try to get the most of them. Lara McBride spends her evening talking on the phone. The phones in the girls dorm are usually busy at any time when the girls are allowed to be out of their rooms. Relaxing after a hard day at school some mounties watch a little television. These mounties seem to be watching something educational on PBS. 8 Boarders Kevin Gary works diligently on his school work. Many students find that study hall in the dorms can be a waste of time unless they have things to do. Seeking the answers to his homework, Mike McConnell asks Bro. John Peto for assistance. Dorm prefects are often sought after for help on their school work. Expanding his knowledge of the world, Steve Bartulica catches up on current events.

Kevin Johnson proves the size of his mouth in the apple bobbing contest The Juniors unfortunately took second place in the spirit week activities. Cutting out letters for the senior spirit sign, Barbara Hale works tediously. Although the feeling of the senior class was that they should have gotten first, they received second place. 10 Spirit Week Spirit Week Rained Out Enjoying themselves, the powder puff cheer- leaders show their support. Even though they had to perform in the gym, they stacked up well. It rained, it poured, and it was spirit week. The rain and cold caused the cancellation of many of the spirit week activities. Monday and Tuesday were the only days that the activities were held outside. Monday, people participated in the new activities of apple bobbing and apple stacking. The apple bobbing was very interesting, especially when senior Christy Boughan came up with two apples in her mouth. Tuesday was the traditional car pack and Simon Says. This year, a compact car was used instead of a station wagon. Although the Seniors went against the odds of the size of their students, they won the car pack. Atchi- son, Senior, Dan Bowen was Simon for this years Simon Says game. On Wednesday the powder puff game was moved to Thursday and changed to volley ball games. Chris Silver, Kansas City, Ks senior had this to say about spirit week. “I thought it was a lot of fun but the weather could have been better. It interferred with the powder puff football game and the pyramid. I was really looking forward to spirit week because it was my Senior year.” The rain dampened the Friday activities too, the Student-Alumni foot- ball game had to be cancelled and the traditional bonfire was not burned. At the pep rally, people seemed to make up for the spirit lost during the week, especially the Seniors, who won the spirit stick. Christy Boughan, Oak Grove, Mo, Senior, summed spirit week up by saying, “I thought spirit week was like this total bummer. The rain was totally gnarly and it just like brought everybody down. It was real rad though because everyone was just like awesomely pepped up. It was totally tubular that the Seniors won, even though we didn’t get to jam at playing powder puff. All in all though, it was a dazzling week.” (story by Beth Sylvester) The football captains congratulate Sara Lange for winning Intramural Queen. She was crowned at the pep rally because the Intramu- ral game was rained out. Mr. Wilson graciously receives the favorite coach pie. According to many Academy students he deserved it. Trying to blow everyones minds, Simon, Dan Bowen, gives instructions. Although there were some controver- sial calls, the Seniors won the game. Keeping everyone’s attention, Fr. Barnabas talks about the All Sports trophy. The trophy was awarded to Maur Hill for winning the most sports in the Big Seven League last year. Thinking about her next move, Meagan Zimmerman practices for the pep rally. The cheerleaders performed well at the pep rally. Spirit Week 11 Jobs Provide Necessary Income School is an important part of many Maur Hill and Academy stu- dents, but so is going to work for some. It’s tough if you are working and going to school, but many students do accomplish it. Day students aren’t the only one’s working. With the work-study pro- gram the boarders can do jobs such as working in the cafeteria or mowing grass to help earn for their tuition. Justin Caraway, Lubbock, TX, Senior said, “I enjoy working in the cafeteria and through a process of seniority, you can move to a better job, and since I have worked four years, I have it pretty easy.” Aside from the boarders who participate in work-study, there are the day students working around town. Mike Lasater, Atchison, senior who works at the Exchange National Bank Trust Company, said, “A job at such a company gives me alot of experience and the opportunity t experience life in the world of bus: ness, which will help me later on in lifi The money is also very useful.” The money is the main reason for most students getting jobs, but some stu dents do feel that a job has othe benefits. “Working gives me an oppor tunity to see a wide variety of people. It gives me practical experience and a chance to use some of the things I have learned in school” said Dan Bowen, Atchison, Senior. Working and going to school is tough, it can affect your grades and sometimes get in the way of school and social activities. Barb Jaegle, Atchi- son, Senior, said, “My job lets me meet a lot of interesting people, and it provides the money I need for many things. It takes a lot of my time, but when you get that big paycheck, it’s worth it.” (Story by Mike Lutz) Stacking unused bowls in the cabinets, Mark McKay, cleans up after dinner is finished being served. Many boarders and day students help the sisters in the cafeteria. Steve Bartulica stacks the bread out for the incoming students. Bread is one the more popular items in the lunch line. Cleaning the chemistry lab after school, Steve McKillip sweeps the floor. Steve does most of his work-study work helping the custodians. 12 Jobs Angie Schneider corrects a mistake on the cash register while working at Price Chopper. Angie doesn’t make a mistake very often.

Jobs 13 Photos By Danccn Wagner Beautiful Weather Makes Homecoming A Day To Remember The 1985-86 Homecoming was an event that will be long remembered. Although the weather was poor throughout the week, something snapped and the skies cleared for both the game and the dance. The team showed valiant effort during the game and at halftime the Homecoming Queen, Sue Sullen- trop, was announced. During the dance, Sue was officially crowned queen and a special dance was offered by the band for her and the Mock King, Gregg Paste. The dance was enjoyed by many couples from the Mount and Maur Hill. The band JTN kept everyone dancing with many popular songs. Jenny Bednar, Atchison Freshman said, “I had a lot of fun at the dance. I thought it was exciting and the band played many good songs.” “I feel that the Homecoming dance was successful this year. There seemed to be a lot of people there and it looked like they were having fun.” said Shannon Rawlings, DeKalb, MO. Junior. “I liked the dance because the band was really good and easy to dance to,” commented Siobhan Trainer, Kansas City, MO. senior. Tim Giles, Atchison, Junior stated “The dance was especially fun for me because I’ve never been to Homecoming.” Although there were fewer couples than in years past, spirits were high and the night turned out well. The dance wasn’t the only activity en- joyed during the night. Before the dance most couples enjoyed nice dinners at local restau- rants or at restaurants in neighboring cities. After the dance a number of students gathered at picked houses to relax, and enjoy each others company. Beth Sylvester, York, NE senior said, “The dance was exciting and the social gatherings afterwards were great to. Organized dances are fun, but they always seem to end to soon.” (story by Molly Klebba and Dorthy Amerien) Greg Herman, MC, introduces the 1985 Homecoming Queen candidates during half- time of the Homecoming game.

Day Hops Enjoy Time Off If you were to ask a faculty member what they think a day student does after he is out of school for the day, they would probably say that he studies, because they gave him enough homework to keep him busy all night. Not so, teachers, day students do many other things on their free time besides study. Mostly they spend their time doing all they can to avoid their school work. Many day students just like to go home after school and relax. Mike Lutz, Atchison, Senior, said, “When I get out of school, there alot of things on my mind, but school isn’t one of them. I get most of my work done in school so I can do something after school that I enjoy.” Lots of people spend their afternoons watching tele- vision. Favorite T.V. programs range from The Jetsons to Love Connection. But do all day students just hang around after schools out. No, they don’t. Many Day Students have jobs they have to go to. “My job keeps me busy in the afternoon, so I look forward to days off,” said Julie Blodig, Atchi- son, Senior. Other might go see their boy or girl friend. Many day students go out with boarders, so the only time they really get to see each other is in the afternoon. Then there are those who spend their afternoons on the practice field. “After a day of practice I just like to go home and get some rest before I start my homework,” said Kurt Forge, Atchison, Junior. These people spend many hours practicing and after the practice session is over for the day they do not have much idle time. So day students do have other lives besides school. They seem to have a tendency to break away from school after it is out. Who can blame them, 6 hours of school a day is enough for anyone.

The biggest thing in the student’s life here at Maur Hill is religion. Some people might not agree with this, but Maur Hill is set up as a school based on religious qualities. All catholic students are required to take religion all four years, and all Christian Juniors are required to take the class. Mass is offered almost every day, each religion class attends mass every week. Is too much emphasis placed on religion? This depends on your point of view. There are those who are not catholic who are forced to take religion or go to mass and they don’t particularly like this, but no one forced them to come to a catholic school. The Seniors and Juniors take religion one semester at the Academy and then one semester at Maur Hill. The Semester at Maur Hill for the Seniors is taught completely by Br. John Peto, while the Juniors switch religion classes every quarter. One major difference between the upperclassmen reli- gion and the classes taken by the sophomores and freshman is that the upperclassmen have co-ed classes, Having co-ed religion is a refreshing change from the first two years, the girls added much needed color to otherwise dull class,” Ed Begley, Atchison, Junior. All religion courses are taught only three times a week, leaving one day open for mass and the other free day is spent in study hall. Confessions are usually scheduled for once a month during the religion class and before each major holiday. Most students might not like the fact that they have to take religion but they would have to admit that after taking the religion class they understand the Christian faith a lot more. “Religion is a very important class at Maur Hill. It helps us to better understand the catholic religion and helps us to mature in our faith,” said, John Miller, Atchison, Senior, (story by Greg Herman) Beth Sylvester approaches the microphone to read the prayers of the faithful. A new sound system was used for masses in the gym this year which made it easier for everyone to hear the mass. The Junior class sits silently as they wait to go to confession. Confession is offered many times in the course of the month during religion classes. 18 Religion David Galbreath leans into his serve to give it extra momentum when it crosses the net. Many people play tennis during the afternoons when the weather is nice. Intramurals Open to Everyone For those who do not wish to participate in varsity sports there are intramurals. Intramural sports provide a place where anyone regardless of their ability can play. The teams are organized by the students and then a league is set up by Fr. Barnabas. Among the most popular of the sports are volleyball and basketball. Starting off the school year is the opening of intramural football season. For the past two years, however, intramural football was not played because of the lack of interest. Even the intramural game against the alumni was can- celled on account of bad weather. Next on the intramural schedule is volley- ball. Volleyball proved to be very popular this year with the forming of three leagues. Zough- iab’s team won the A league bracket this year with an undefeated record. At the same time intramural racquetball is played. Racquetball is set up as a single elimination tournament with the students setting up their own playing schedule. Lyn Grikis was the winner of the T- shirt in this year’s tournament, “I thought that the tournament was fun. I enjoyed playing against some pretty good competi- tion, especially Terry Anderson in the final game,” added Grikis. Starting in the winter of the new year is basketball. The time on basketball games if a little different than regular games but the competition is good. The main problem in the games is the officiating. The officials are volunteer students and very often they make bad calls, “Sure the refs make bad calls, but thats to be expected. The referees in varsity games don’t always make the right call. The only thing that makes me mad is when a ref makes a call that cost us a game,” said Charlie Lukens, Kansas City, MO, senior. In the spring is intramural softball, which is the only co-ed intramural sport. Girls were allowed to compete with the guys about two years ago and have been ever since. “I’m glad that girls are allowed to play intramural softball, it was a lot of fun last year and I think I will play again this year,” said Molly Klebba, Linn, MO, Junior. (Story by Greg Herman) Lyn Grikis waits to return the ball as it comes off the wall. Lyn was the winner of this year’s intramural racquetball tournament. Tom Senecal sets the ball up so Bill McKernan can spike it with maximum velocity. Senecal’s volleyball team had good success this volleyball season. Attempting to return the ball, Dan Foxley gets in position underneath the ball. Volleyball is one of the most popular intramural sports among the students. Intramurals 19 Good Attendance at Sadie Hawkins Wearing her shades, Susan Wolters listens to a song by the band “Private Stock”. Wearing shades was common at Sadie Hawkins. On the evening of December 6 many people attended Sadie Hawkins. Sadie Hawkins is the traditional girl ask guy dance. This year Sadie Hawkins was held at a later date than previous years, usually the dance is held in November. John Miller, Atchison, senior, said “Student Council wanted to have the dance in November but all the week-ends were filled with activi- ties. I think the dance went rather well despite the changed month.” The band at Sadie Hakins was Private Stock from St. Joseph, Mo. Justin Cara- way, Lubbock, Tx., senior, said “I thought the band was very good. They played good songs and I felt that the dance was enjoyed by all.” The hitching post was where the priests married the couples. As they were married, marriage certificates and string to tie the knot were given to the couples. Also, if necessary the couples could divorce each other at the hitching post. The girls nominated a boy from each class for the best looking legs. Nominated from each class for best looking legs were Dan Moriarty, Senior; Pat Quinn, Junior; Steve Barticluia, Sophomore; and Todd Dulac, Freshman. Pat Quinn won with the most money in his jar. He was announced “King of Dogpatch” and received a crown. Tom Senecal, Atchison, Senior won $5 for the best dressed hick. Darrell Wagner, Atchison, Senior won a 6-pack of pop for second place. Laura Meyer, Atchison, Senior won a package of candy for third as being dressed as the best hick. (Story by Angela Domann) Waiting for someone to come and get divorced Tom Senecal takes a snooze. Many people got married and divorced at Sadie Hawkins. Dan Moriarty, Matt Lomshek and Tim Paulich thrashed to the music. Many seniors attending Sadie Hawkins thrashed and contributed to dog piles. 20 Sadie Hawkins Roost Night The weekend refreshes students so that they can last through the first half of the week. But what is it that keeps them going for the last two days? The answer is roost night. The roost is open every Wednesday from 9:00 to 10:00 p.m. for Maur Hill and Academy students. At the roost people play air hockey or foosball, or just meet with friends. At the same time intramurals are going on in the gym and many people like to watch the games if they are not participating in them. A lot of people go to roost to meet their boy or girlfriends. The hour at the roost gives them time to see each other that is not always there during the week. Rob Harrington, Prairie Village, Senior, said, “I like to go to the roost on Wednesday night so I can see my girlfriend, because I don’t get to see her for very long during the school day.” The snack bar run by Mrs. Donna Willming, is very busy on roost night. The grill is constantly going and Mrs. Willming usually asks for the assistance of two or more students to wait on people. “The variety of food served in the roost increases every year. This year Mrs. Willming started serving microwave pizzas. The food in the roost is definitely one of its strong points,” said Stan Lackey, Mountain View, AK, Junior. Whatever the reason, the roost is always packed with students on Wednesdays. The atmosphere it creates is one of it’s main attractions. The roost offers a place for Heather O’Herin thinks about what she will order while she waits to be waited on. Knowing this will be a tough decision, she uses this time wisely. Very Popular students to go on a week night and see each other and talk about school or plan what they will do on the upcoming weekend. Because of the variety of things the roost offers students will continue to go there. The roost being open on Wednesdays is a very good idea and it is one that will last for a long time. (Story by Greg Herman) Donna Willming, manager of the roost, prepares some hamburgers for hungry stu- dents. Mrs. W’illming is kept busy on roost night cooking hamburgers and fries. Selecting the next song, Jean Andra reads over the list of selections on the juke box. Many people enjoy the music that the juke box puts out while in the roost. Discussing their plans for the weekend, Terry Anderson and Ximena Aguilar go over their options. Many couples like roost night be- R.OOSt 21 cause it gives them a chance to see one another. Christmas Dinner Success In recent years students have always looked forward to Christmas Dinner. This year all the student’s looked very much forward to the dinner and most seemed disappoint- ed. “I think the Christmas Dinner is a really good idea. I had fun but I didn’t feel it was as good as it has ever in the previous years” said Dorthy Amrein, Atchison, Junior. Laura Meyer, Atchison junior said “This year Christmas Dinner was not as good as past years. The quality of the food has diminished so much that people no longer look forward to this occasion.’ Christmas Dinner is held after a week of Kris Kringle by secretly giving candy to a classmate. Before the dinner, students find out their Kris Kringle by exchanging gifts. Then the senior girls start the buffet line to the food, with other classes following. The teachers serve the students. After everyone has eaten, the teachers give some kind of entertainment. Santa Claus came Mary Kleinholz receives her horiscope for the new year. Mary hopes the new year will be brighter than the past year. Julie Blodig and Jenny Immel wait patiently for Chris Durall enjoys his Christmas feast. This their Christmas Dinner to arrive. Many of the is the one time of the year where the faculty girls felt the dinner wasn’t as good this year as serves the students, it has been in the past. and gave candy to everyone and brought gifts to some students. Chris Silver, Mission Hills, Ks. senior said “The Christmas Dinner was fun, but the seniors weren’t able to sing their song and we wanted to. The food was good and Kris Kringle was fun too.” (Story by Angela Domann) Julie Geiger and Barb Hale sing exuberently at the Christmas Dinner. This is something the girls look forward to at the dinner. 22 Christmas Dinner Dinner-Dance Successful The league of St. Maur Dinner- Dance was held November 9, at the Constitution Center in Kansas City, Kansas. This was the 51st year of the occasion. Three hundred were present at the dinner-dance. It didn’t raise as much money as last year but was still consid- ered a success. Tony Carracci and his orchestra provided music for the people. The band was enjoyed by all. Forty-eight students from Maur Hill and Mount provided service to the dinner. Everyone thought they did a fine job. Three people were awarded with Knight of St. Maur Plaques. The plaques serve as reminders of Maur Hill’s appre- ciation of their contributions to them. Edward Stork, Dennis McCarthy, and Colonel Courtney S. Turner were the recipients. Mr. Edward J. Stork is in his 27th year as a staff member at Maur Hill. He came in 1959 and began teaching science classes. In 1969, he became Dean of Academic Affairs. Mr. Dennis McCarthy is a professor at Benedictine College and chairman of the art department. He helped Maur Hill by making the cross at the entrance, the cross and stations of the cross in the chapel and the new grotto. Colonel Courtney S. Turner is char- ter member of Benedictine College Board of Governors and a member of Board of Directors. He retired from the U.S. Army after World War II, with the rank of Colonel. (Story by Angela Do- mann) P. J. Keeley speaks at the Maur Hill Dinner. Mr. Keeley is Board Chairman of Maur Hill Board of Directors. Fr. Abbott Ralph Koehler, Dennis Mc- Carthy, Colonel Courtney S. Turner and Edward Stork were announced as the New Knights of St. Maur. All three men have contributed very much to Maur Hill. Lee Hurley sets up for the Maur Hill Dinner- Dance. Forty-eight students helped set up and serve. Dinner-Dance 23 World and National Review Star War Killer Earthquake Aggrevate Soviets Shakes Mexico In a war that has grown much colder, the United States Strategic Defense Initiative or in other words, “Star Wars”, defense plan has done nothing to in- crease the climate. In the eyes of the Soviet Union, Star Wars is a plot the Russians say that is against them, to accelerate the arms race and move the battle into outer space. Yet the White House argues that it is only trying to catch up with the Soviets. Though we are working on a more sophisticated type of weapon, it is not completed so the Soviets remain ahead by a considerable margin. Who knows, we may be wasting billions of dollars for nothing because we aren’t even sure that the sophisticated piece of weaponry will even work. Though Star Wars is called a weapon, it is really just a type of sattelite that will prevent Soviet missiles from entering U.S. air space. You see, the sattelite is being developed to disarm the warheads practically before they leave the ground. With a defensive weapon that will destroy incoming missiles before they “come in”, the United States has taken a giant leap up to the Soviets. The Star Wars plan is a more peaceful weapon that it seems the Soviets want to get involved with. Reagan feels it is a weapon to try and stop the arms race and not to increase it than the Kremlin feels it will. President Reagan insisted that Star Wars was a bargaining chip for the summit. Well, the meeting was had and the topic of Star Wars was discussed, but when the summit between the superpow- ers Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorba- chev came to a close in Geneva, the Soviets said no arms agreement would be possible unless the United States alters the Star Wars plan. What they are really saying is that they don’t want us to put them in a position where they have no way of winning. As it seems, the Soviets are on the run. The Star Wars defense plan enables the United States to drastically catch up in an arms race in which it was so far behind. What bothers the Soviet Union so much is the superiority of the United States technology. Once the United States makes a firm commitment to build a strategic defense weapon, as it did to put a man on the moon, the Soviets will inevitably lose the race. And in the Star Wars plan that the United States has already started to develop, the United States has a huge advantage. So in an arms race that has been Soviet dominated for years, Star Wars is help- ing the American Empire “strike back”. (Story by Mike Lutz) It is said to be one of the worst disasters in Mexico’s history. It de- stroyed as much as half of Mexico City’s metropolitan area. In case you can’t figure it out, the disaster is the Earthquake that happenen in late September. The earthquake struck on Thurs- day, September 28, measuring 7.8 on the Richter Scale causing incredible damage and an innumerable number of deaths. Then as rescurers were rummaging through the rubble trying to help people trapped under all of the collapsed buildings, another quake struck, this time measuring 7.3 on the Richter scale. Just big enough to delay the rescuing and topple over any half way falling buildings. After the second quake the death toll was predicted to be between 10 and 20 thousand per- sons and possibly more than that. There is one big problem that Mexico is going to have to face when everything gets cleared up, and that is the effect that the quake will have on Mexico’s already severely bad econo- my. All is not lost though, as many nations are trying to help by sending money and supplies to the crippled nation. In the United States, two senators put in bills to give Mexico up to $75 million in aid. Another problem with Mexico is the fact that in Mexico City where the earthquake seemed to have done the most damage, there is an ever present population problem. Mexico City is ithe worlds largest metropolitan area with a population of 18 million, and it continues to grow by about 560,000 per year. Recently some people have been moving out of the city because of the lack of work and other things such as food and shelter. But with the recent disas- ter, more people are moving back to the city for the first time to try and find jobs. In fact, the number of people moving back to the city is about 30 percent greater than the number of people moving out. Many people were already leaving Mexico City because they knew about the threat of the earthquakes.You see, the city is built on an ancient lake bed which is actually just water logged clay. That is one of the main reasons there was so much damage done. Whenthe earthquake hit, Mexico City bounced around like a big bowl of jelly. Even before the quake buildings were starting to give in to the soft soil. Some buildings have fell as much as six feet into the earth. Maybe the worst thing to come out of the disaster was the fact that two of the city’s hospitals collapsed trapping thousands of helpless people. Overall Mexico is surviving. Many of the city’s aspects re- turned to normal. But the suffer- ing will continue for years to come, and many of the dead will never be found. (Story by Mike Lutz) PEOPLE YOU KNOW People are crazy. You bet they’re intriguing. Of course they are famous, and rich, they’ve undoubtedly got to be rich too. Their names and faces were all over 1985 magazine covers, front pages, and billboards. And perhaps most commonly seen on home and movie screens. And what’s more, each of them, in his or her own special way are severe pains in the you know what. Maybe it would be nice to bring some of these faces into the open, as if they already aren’t. It is almost impossible to avoid them. Joan Rivers: You can dress her up but you can’t shut her up. Robin Leach: “Slithered his way to the top by elevating glitterati voyeurism to a new low”. George Will: “Most prominent of the seasons knee-jerk neo-cons.” Hulk Hogan: “At last! A white Mr T!” Lionel Richie: “At last! A black Barry Manilow!” Phil Donahue: “Phil is ... what’s the word I Want? Smarmy? Patroniz ing? Pandering? Help me out here You in the back.'A push wimp?’ Sure but ... yes? ‘An unctuous nerd? Thank you” Rainbow brite Dolls: “Smurfs weren’t squeaky enough. Carebears weren’t icky enough.

(Story by Mike Lutz) Royal’s Victorious in World Series In Kansas City, you could hear the blaring of car horns, firecrackers, screaming, singing and painting their faces blue and white as people jammed midtown to celebrate the Royals 11 -0 win to the St. Louis Cardinals. This win helped the Royals clinch the World Series Title. The Royals refused to die in this series. This team has something extra inside them. George Brett said “this team should be remembered as a team that wouldn’t give up Survey Shows Students Profitable to Area Merchants In the fall the Maurite staff did a survey of the Maur Hill and Academy students. The survey showed how much money the students spend around to area merchants. The following is the results of the survey. Percentage figures are given based on 294 returned surveys. 1. Do you get an allowance? 56%, yes. If so, how much per week? Under $5, 5%; $5- $10, 19%; over $10, 37%. 2. Do you have a job? 40%, yes. If so how much do you make per week? Under $20, 10%; $20-40,12 %; $40-60,9 %; over $60,12 %. 3. Do you have a personal charge acount? 19%-yes 4. Do you use your parents’ charge card? 30%-yes 5. Do you have a checking account? 38% - yes 6. Do you have a savings account? 75%- yes 7. How much per week do you save? $7 8. Do you own a car? 27%-yes 9. Do you use another individual’s car on a regular basis? 45% yes 10. Do you own: a stereo, 65%-yes; a motorcycle, 4%-yes; a typewriter, 43%-yes; a camera, 60%-yes. 11. How much do you spend on clothing per month? $45 12. How much per week do you spend on entertainment? $19 13. How much do you spend a week at Pamida? $15; TG Y? $7 14. How much per month do you spend on: tapes or albums, $12; books, $3.25; magazines, $4.50. 15. How much per week do you spend on grooming (hair cuts, hair-styles,etc.)? $33 16. Do you use the coupons you find in the newspaper? 55%, rarely; 23,%. sometimes; 6%, usually. 17. What amount per month do you spend on: car and cycle expenses (gas, etc. maintenance, etc.) $30; gifts (Christmas, showers, birthdays, etc.) $17; hobbies (horses, stamps, etc) S6; school supplies (notebooks, paper, pencils, etc.) $6; florists services $6. and as a team with a great pitching staff.” They won the American League Champion- ship Series after being behind three games to one. They did the same in the World Series, they won the Series after losing two games at home. No team has ever done that before. The Royals or anyone else never dreamed that they would do this. They were survivals of two teams that were substancial favorites because they were rock solid teams, compared to the Royals who had lots of problems. The fans were maybe the only ones that believed a little. A sign was carried through the stands saying “Oh Ye of Little Faith.” This year’s World Series was special since both teams were from Missouri. The series was named “1-70” or “Show Me State Series” by many people. The game results were: Oct. 19 Cardinals- 3, Royals-1, Oct. 20 Cardinals-4, Royals-2, Oct. 23 Cardinals-1, Royals-6, Oct. 24 Cardi- nals-3, Royals-0. Oct. 26 Cardinals-1, Royals- 6, Oc. 26 Cardinals-1, Royals-2 and Oct. 267 Cardials-0, Royals-11. Brett said, “I couldn’t have taken one more close game, after winning the sixth close game 2-1.” Holiday Honoring King On January 20, 1986, Many Americans celebrated the first federal Holiday in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Thousands of people have gathered and marched to honor this great man in Washing- ton, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Honolulu and New Orleans. In Illinois, Rhode Island and Minnesota church bells rang and the speech “I have a dream” by King was recited by radio stations. There were three nationally tele- vised birthday parties for King many stars participated in the celebration. Some of the stars include Bob Dylan, Joan Glaz, Bill Crosby, Harry Bellofonte, Quincy Jones and Reverend Jesse Jackson. By law the third Monday of January is in honor of King. He was born January 15, 1929 and assasinated April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tenn. In Memphis, people gathered at the place where King was killed, it was the parking lot of the Lorraine Motel. It was announced that there would be a moment honoring King on the Southside corner of Chicago where King with the poor during the mid-60’s. People marched in Birmingham, Alabama to Ingrant Park where a monument of King was unveiled and where King spoke and marched in the 1960’s. The King holiday symbolizes “that we’ve finally recognized legally that we are all created equal,” said Judge Alberto Mieca St. Paul. Some people protested the holiday. Ku Klux Klansmen held a parade and cross burning at Pulaske, Tenn. where the original Ku Klux Klan was formed in 1965. DISASTER SWEEPS SPACE TECH. CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Space shuttle Challenger exploded into a giant fireball in the sky moments after liftoff on January 28, apparently killing all seven crew members including schoolteach- er Christa McAuliffe. There was no announcement of the fate of the crew but it appeared there was no way they could survive the exposion. The 1.2 billion space-craft, one of four in NASA’s fleet appeared to be completely destroyed. This was the first in flight disaster in 56 U.S. manned space missions, although three astronauts were killed in a 1967 launch pad explosion during the Appollo program. The explosion was a devastating setback for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. This mission would have been the 25 successful mission in slightly less than five years. Among those who witnessed the explosion were McAuliffe’s attorney-husband Steve and their two children Scott and Caroline, who were watching at Cape Canaveral. Also at the Cape were Scott’s third grade classmates from Concord N.H. McAuliffe’s parents, Ed and Grace Corrigan, of Farmington Mass, were also at Cape Canveral. McAuliffe, 37, had been selected from 11,146 teacher applicants to be the first to fly in the NASA (Citizen in Space) program. All 1,200 students at Mrs. McAuliffe’s Concord High School were cheering the televised launch when the teacher yelled for them to be silent because something appeared to be wrong. The ship had risen spectacularly off the launch pad at 11:38 a.m., after a series of weather and technical delays, and was climbing smoothly trailing a 700-geyser of fire when it suddenly erupted into a huge fireball and shot out of control. There were seven crew members aboard, includ- ing Mrs. McAuliffe, selected from the more than 11,000 applicants. The other crew members were commander Francis R. Scobee, 46, pilot Michael J. Smith, 40; Judith Resnik, 36; Ronald E. McNair, 35; Ellison S. Onizuka, 39; and Gregory B. Jarvis, 41. Ships and helicopters raced to the area and the control center said paramedics had leaped into the water. There was no indication of how much the shuttle was intact. After the explosion the shuttle appeared to still be flying and suddenly jolted out of control and plunged toward the ocean. This flight was the second of a record fifteen flights scheduled for this year. It will now be months before NASA will be able to determine the cause of the malfuncation and they must do that before they can send another shuttle up. NASA said the explosion occurred about 60 seconds after lift-off when the astronauts began to throttle their engines to maximum power. After throttling them down to a 60 percent level at 35 second in order to reduce the forces of gravity during liftoff.

They are not exactly right or wrong. The seniors have some responsi- bilities that they must hold to. Since the seniors are the oldest, they are looked up to and are expected to set a good example. The seniors are respected for their positions on sport teams and in clubs and organizations. Christy Boughan, Oak Grove, MO, had this to say about senior leadership, “I think that senior leadership is very important. Since the seniors are at the top, they should be the leaders. I also think that too much emphasis is placed on how the seniors should act. I’m in my last year of high school and I want to have some fun. If a senior is in a leadership position, they should act accordingly while they are directly related with that activity, but as soon as they cannot be associated with the organization, they should be able to do what ever they want.” The seniors are always allowed to have a certain amount of fun during their last year of high school. Fresh- men initiation is when the seniors have a lot of their in-school fun. Those that were here their freshman year seek revenge by torturing their little broth- er or sister. The picnic at the end of freshman initiation week got a little out of hand this year. Many of the faculty that were present were greatly opposed to the seniors starting a mud slide by the water fountain at Jackson Park. Although it was very messy, most of the seniors had fun throwing each other down the mud slide. Al- though the seniors have some respon- sibilities, they also have a lot of fun.

They begin to bring back memories of nights out with friends, late night sessions in the dorms, and many many untold happenings that few people know about. These memories will stick with them for the rest of their lives, and will remind them of their high school years. Christy Boughan, Oak Grove, Mo., and Lara McBride, Topeka, Ks., had these memo- ries to share. “Having Lara not catch me when I fell, catching a ride with the pizza man to Booger’s All-Night Hotel, and then Crawling at Tony Pickman’s feet at six in the morning.” They also remembered looking for K.U. after lunch. Sister Christelle’s Boot, gathering the dollars, exterminating Bui’s fish, Barb Jaegle’s jail, G.I. Joe action figures, and trying to find Mike Lasater’s house. Siobhan Trainer, Kansas City, Mo., said her favorite memories included the late night gospel girl sessions, sleeping in her clothes basket, her surprise after the sweetheart dance, and getting ready for the sweetheart dance with Beth Sylvester. Morgan Dohne, Bartlesville, Ok., said, “My favorite memories of the Academy were Beth Sylvester and I doing our Muffy and Buffy greeting in the airport after every vacation. We would take a running start and yell Muffy, Buffy, and do a flying hug in the middle of the airport. Everyone always looked at us a little strange, but we never cared. Chow Buff, Chow Muff!” Justin Caraway, Lubbock, Tx., Had this memory to share, “My best memories were the all-night poker games, private stock, and beating the odds on senior floor. These are only a few, there were many more, I can’t wait for the ones in college.” (Story by Beth Sylvester) Beth Sylvester congratulates Siobhan Trainer who successfully bobbed an apple in the Spirit Week games.

In the world today, it is almost a necessity to go to college. The seniors of this year seem to be making plans to go quite a ways away for college. There are also those who are planning on going to the University of Kansas, and Kansas State University. Mike Lasater, and Steve O’Keefe are hoping to go to Saint Photos by Justin Caraway Mary’s University in San Antonio, Tx. Mike had this to say about next year, “I hope my freshman year o' college will be a prosperous tim away from home. I think that th distance between me and my folk will prove to be a growing up experi ence.” Jamie Keeley, Belleville, 111. and Christy Boughan, Oak Grove Mo., plan to attend Kansas Stat together and be roommates. Chris had this comment about next ye£ ‘T think that Jamie and I are goii to have a good time at college, b also do pretty well. I am looki) forward to meeting alot of m people, especially guys.” The seniors have spent the past four years preparing for college They are ready to move away from home and the dorms to other schools in different parts of the country. We hope that they are ready to take on the world. The Academy and Maur Hill have done their job and now it is up to the seniors to decide their own future. (Story by Beth Sylvest- er) 32 Seniors Chris Silver, Dan Moriarty, Aoly Flores, and Gregg Paste work on the Senior sign for spirit week. Even though they worked hard, they only got second place. Pep Club officers Lara McBride and Sue Suellentrop host the first pep rally of the year. A lot of senior spirit was shown at this rally. Chris Silver and Shane Boos enjoy themselves at the Tennis Court Dance. Many couples attended the dance. Jamie Keeley and Greg Herman visit at Roost. Many boarders find this a good time to get out and visit their boyfriends and girl friends. John Michael Miller: Football, State, Wrestling, Intramurals, Stu-Co Sec.

Kurt and Pat we’re just two of the Juniors that went to the Math Contest at Washburn University. Underclassmen Work Hard Underclassmen make up the majori- ty of this school yet it seems that they get the least amount of credit for their accomplishments. As Freshmen, one receives his initia- tion. Both Seniors and Freshmen look forward to this. For Seniors it’s a chance to revenge their initiation that they received. For Freshmen it’s a promotion from scum to the lowest form of life at the school. Freshmen should be given credit for their ability to weather all the abuse directed at them during this week. If you don’t want to give them credit, then give them another week of abuse. Sophomores get to continue the tradition of a bonfire. They receive the satisfaction of continuing the tradition as well as the challenge of outbuilding previous years erections. They don’t however, receive the satisfaction of igniting it, for this is reserved for the local townspeople and the senior football captains. With the exception of this year, the Sophomore class should be credited with fine erections. Juniors simply receive satisfaction in knowing that next year they will be Seniors. This is the light at the end of the tunnel, which is enough fuel to get the juniors through another abusing year at school. Juniors should be given credit for making it this far and for taking all the abuse that the school has thrown at them. Underclassmen do their time so they can become the top of the heap. During this time of wait they meet many hardships, especially the Freshman. In the end it all pays off they become seniors and it’s their turn to take control, (story by Lyn Grikis) Just U heri cjou thought it ms over Kieran O’Hare attempts to retrieve a piece of 36 Underclassmen candy from the jaws of a Mountie Freshman. This was just one of the things asked of Freshman during initiation week. Erin Russell waits patiently for Aaron Beverly to push her at the signal to go. The Sophomores easily defeated the Freshman in the first round of the tricycle race. ycutiata Juniors Look Ahead Junior year is one of the hardest years at school,” is an exclamation that most Juniors agree to. These ambitious Juniors are ready to take charge. “I’ve waited for three years to be at the top so I can enforce seniority”, said Jill Rei- chart, Liberty, Mo., Junior. Freshman initiation is one of the first things Juniors think of when they talk about becoming Seniors. From the time of freshman initiation during their junior year, they make plans for what they will do their little brother or sister. Seniority is another thing often looked forward to during the junior year. They pick up on things that the Seniors are doing now, so that next year they will be fully prepared to pull rank on all the other students. The senior class calls for many leaders. Rich Dickason, Atchison, Ju- nior, “I think our class will be great leaders and set good examples for under- classmen. We plan on achieving some high goals during our last year.” One of the main leadership jobs of the seniors, is student council. During the spring, the juniors run for the different offices. The Juniors of this year, will also strongly represent the schools in sports. Quite a lot of the Juniors guys played varsity football this year. They will be coming back next year strong and experienced. The basketball team will also be strongly represented next year. The junior girls made up most of the sporting teams this year at the Mount. Next year they should have a good showing. With all of this going for them, the juniors should be ready to follow in the foot steps of this years seniors, (story by Daneen Wagner) Jennifer Cavanaugh relaxes after school in the lounge of the dorms.

They take the back seat to the Seniors and are usually left there. Since the Juniors aren’t recognized too much, they spend most of the school year pre- paring for their senior year and college. In the fall, the Juniors take the PSAT NMSQT. This test some what prepares them for the SAT. It also can qualify them for a National Merit Scholarship. The scholarship is very prestigous, and All through the year, the Juniors take electives that will be related to what they will study in college. Those interested in science can take Physics and Anato- my. Business minded juniors can take computer, accounting, or busi- ness law. Those who have a love for journalism can work on the newspa- per or the yearbook. In the spring, a lot of Juniors take the ACT. This is one of the first requirements for getting to college. Those who take the test at this time, are curious to see what it is like, and usually take it again their senior year. Towards the end of their junior year, some of them begin receiving information from colleges. Along with this information, strikes the disease, Senioritis. Juniors at this time can’t wait for the seniors to graduate. They begin making plans about what they are going to do when they are in control. Finally, on that last day of school, when final exams are over and the seniors are alumni, the juniors rejoice, for they are now the seniors, (story by Beth Sylvester) Photo by Justin Caraway 40 Juniors Mary Kleinholz enjoys herself at the Sadie Hawkins dance.

Juniors 41 Sophomores have a hard year Sophomore year is about the most dreaded year of high school. It is an inbetween year that has to be lived through to be an upperclass- men. Many sophomores are found behind a stack of homework every night. World History and Typing are some of the classes that cause alot of headaches. As a sophomore, most time is spent playing junior-varsity. They usually do not get much recognition, and have to put up with alot of slack from the varsity players. They know that they must go through this in order to play on the varsity team. Sophomores also have the re- sponsibility of building the bonfire. It is a task that takes alot of hard work, and then is usually destroyed to ashes the night before homecom- ing. This year though, due to the excess rain, the bonfire did not burn that night. It stood there until one night when it was burned down by some unknown persons. After the Sohomores survive the school year, they look forward to being upperclassmen. They have passed what many consider the toughest year of high school and are now ready for most enjoyable years of high school. They have experi- enced being the low life and are ready to dish out to the underclass- men what they have been subjected to in the past two years with full force.

All their life at Maur Hill, sopho- mores have been looked down upon. As freshmen they were nobodies and as sophomores they weren’t much better off. So now all they can do is look forward to what can only be called “better days”. Andrew Trainer, Kan- sas City, Mo., soph, said “As a sopho- more boarder this year Pm looking forward to the bigger rooms in the St.Leo’s dormitory and also to being a upperclassmen.” “I’m looking forward to the junior year, the bigger rooms, the easier life, and most of all getting to stay out later and more privileges.”, said Mike McConnell, Parkville, Mo., soph. “I’m looking forward to many things as a junior. Among them are a second year on J.V. basketball, one year closer to finishing high school, another chance to scholastically en- lighten myself, and one more year to be with my fantastic class of ‘88’,” said Danny Pombo, St. Jo- seph, Mo., soph. Steve Bartulica, St. Joseph, Mo., soph, remarked “I’m looking forward to being an upperclassman and more privi- leges. Getting bigger rooms and generally a better school life.” As they finish off their year, the sophomores will have most of their required classes out of the way. The next two years will be spent taking classes that interest them and will help prepare them for the future. They also will have alot more privileges the next two years and will hopefully enjoy their last years at Maur Hill, (story by Lyn Grikis) Sara Lange shows a winning smile at the Homecom- ing game.

The freshmen at Maur Hill and the Academy have an advantage over most freshmen, they have freshmen initiation week. For the first full week of school, the freshmen are at the command of their big brother or sister. All week long the seniors dress up their little brother and sister and order them to do various activities. Some of the different activities included air raids, wearing togas, singing songs, wearing signs, carrying books, and dressing like a punk rocker. Most of the seniors enjoyed thinking up things for their little freshmen to do. It was also a time of revenge for the seniors who were here their freshmen year. At the end of the week, there was the traditional senior - freshman picnic. The seniors were prepared to attack the freshmen when they arrived. The fresh- men had some idea of what was going to happen to them, but they were still surprised by what the seniors pulled off that night. The seniors attacked the freshman with water balloons, shaving cream, and eggs. Later on in the picnic, the seniors started a mud slide by the water fountain. Fr. Barnabas put a stop to that shortly after it started. Over all though, the picnic was a hit for both the seniors and freshmen. The freshmen of this year have their senior year to look forward to, so they can get revenge on the freshmen of that year.

In grade school they were the top people and it was easy to be the leaders, but now that they are in high school they are the low life and they also have a new routine to get used to. The freshman are used to being in one classroom and not having an orderly set time for classes to end. When they enter high school, they find out that in four minutes they have to go to their lockers, get their books, and make it to their next class on time. The first couple of times that they change classes they get lost and are late. Since they are new, the teachers will let them get by with it the first time, after that they get detention or a pink slip. The freshman come in from being the top dog and are thrown down to the bottom of the ladder. This can be very frustrating at times. The freshman are made to stand in line last at lunch, they have to allow the upper classmen in front of them for everything, and those who live in the dorms have to come in the earliest, which is very early. The freshman have very little choice when it comes to their classes. The fresh- man have so many required classes, that about their only choice is which foreign language to take. The freshman are re- quired to take speech, english, algebra, biology, and p.e. Overall the freshman have little choice during their first year, but have three more years to look forward to after that. Each year gets better as they go along, (story by Beth Sylvester) Chris Roth gets a good dose of shaving cream. Many the freshman got “creamed” at the picnic. Jason Durali does an air raid at the command of his big brother. Many freshman were found doing air raids during initiation week. Steve Macek and Nina Bartulica pass a dime between their teeth during freshman intiation. Many freshmen were subjected to this punishment. Carl Hagen, at the command of his big brother, lets out a great MOO” for all students to enjoy. Acting like a cow was a favorite among the freshmen.

The Board also formulates policies, and approves the annual budget. The Maur Hill Board of Directors meets three times a year. They meet to discuss the school budget, set salary and tuition raises. The Board also assist in major fund raising projects for Maur Hill. The Academy Board of Directors has a regular scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee every May. Other meetings of the full Board or Executive Committee are called when determined necessary. The Academy Board also meets to discuss the Academy’s policies and to adjust the budget. They are also responsible for hiring the Chief Adminis- trative Officer. This year, the Maur Hill Board of Directors met with the Maur Hill Stu- dent Council. During this meeting, the student council discussed the possibility of the student council giving reports to the Board of Directors concerning affairs of the student council. The Board of Directors are basically responsible for the programs and activi- ties of the schools. The members came from near and far to meet and make decisions concerning the schools. Some of the members come from the Atchison area, while others come from Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. The members put in a lot of their own free time to help with out schools, and should be deeply appreciated for all that they do.

That was what each team possessed this year and that’s why football, basketball, volleyball and wrestling were so successful this year. It was all team support. This year it was evident each team had goals set to be as successful as they could be. But more then ever it was noticeable that each sport was not only playing to win but playing to have a good time also. The dedication of the players, whether it was wrestling or volleyball was intense throughout the season. That’s what is needed for any successful team. It was great dedication towards their goal that led the football team to the play - offs, basketball team to the Big Seven title and the team of the wrestlers and Academy volleyball to state, and most of all what set our teams apart from all the others. The support of fans became a big asset to the teams this year also. This year it was well appreciated when the fans turned out on those cold away games during football and the snowy nights for the basketball games. Good fan support makes playing sports so much fun. During the season a team always faces let- downs there was no exception for the teams of the Mount and Maur Hill. But for every team that wants success you need to bounce back and try again. Nobody can be successful unless you believe in yourself that how our teams did so well this year because we were coached to keep on fighting. (Story by Todd Scott) The Jr. Ravens make last minute prepara- tions before battling with Nemaha Valley in the last game of the season. The Ravens completed the season 17-3.

Injuries Plague Frosh The Freshman Football team end their season with a 3-3 record. This years team had all the size, speed, and talent but not the luck. Mark Begley, Atchison Freshman said, “Our front offensive line made some good holes for me to run through. I thought that we should of won every game this year but we got some bad breaks.” Their first loss came with Nemaha Valley in very hard fought game down to the last tick of the clock. Their second loss came against Levenworth West. The closing game with Effingham brought their third and final defeat. Coach Folsom and Coach Hunninghake all agreed on one thing “We were big and fast. We fought and played hard every game and our losses came to some tough opponents. These young men are going to be a good asset to Maur Hill Varsity sports in future years.” Coach Folsom added, “We had a large line, but they have a lot to learn. Kevin Cummings lead our attack at center and played well all year long. I think that the games we lost should have been wins because, we were better.” As the season progressed nagging injuries plagued the Freshman team. Mark Begley, freshman running back, went out with an injury. Schuele, Offensive guard, also was injured with a broken leg, and Craig Vander- weide, offensive guard went out with broken thumb. All of these injuries came before the Effingham game. This may of played a big role in their loss. Todd Dulac, an Atchison Freshman, said, “We had three top players get injured at the end of the season. This hurt our offense. We could of beat Effingham if we had our first team in there.” The Freshman offense was a very versi- tile offense because of the backs they had and the exceptionally large line they had. If Begley wasn’t running the ball it was Carrigan passing to Carl Hagan for a quick 10 yards. The F’reshman had a well balanced attack and will help them in their football careers. The Freshman can now look forward to playing football on the varsity level. With their size they should prosper well. Dan Carrigan, Atchison Freshman, said, I can’t wait to try playing football on the varsity level it should be more fun than my freshman year.” (story by Todd Scott) Looking down field for a receiver, Dan Carrigan attempts to pass. Carrigan shows his scrambling ability by eluding the defensive lineman. Awaiting the snap of the center, the large line of the Freshman wait to do their damage. The size of the freshman helped their running game greatly this season.

Dominates Opponents Once again the junior varsity foot- ball team went undefeated, ending their season with a final record of 6-0. The defense shut down teams and the offense put points on the board at will. Coaches Marty Gonzales and Rick Folsom used their plays and tactics well, passing when the run was expected and running when it was a sure passing down. Scott Munsen, Atchison, Junior, said, ‘‘It was a fun year at quarterback, when I was able to pass the ball I liked to go deep. We had great success with our running too. We surprised the defense with our trick plays and that’s what helped us a lot this year.” The junior varsity didn’t have big backs but were packed with speed and agility, leading the way was Terry Ander- son, who was able to get a little varsity action too. The offensive line was well bal- anced. Jeff Growney, Ed Begley, and Brian Schlindwein were juniors who lead the line in their attack with their past experience. Sophomores such as Lou Filla, Matt Flynn, and Brock Pursolow showed promising potential. Lou Filla Washington, Mo, Sophomore, said, “I love playing varsity this year and junior varsity was fun. I can’t wait to see how the team is going to be next year. We have a lot of good players coming off the JV and as long as I am in the trenches digging it out I will be happy.” The young players have alot to look forward to, because of their success in JV this year, talent and experience should lead the way and guide them through varsity. Coach Gonzales added, ‘‘We had an excellent season this year. The teams we played gave us good games. We were able to play a lot of sophomores this year, hopefully the experience will carry on for next year.” (story by Todd Scott) Brock Purslow hands the ball off to Matt Flynn who looks for a hole in the line.

The team began the season with eight positions to refill on offense and nine positions to refill on defense. The three co-captains Tim Von Dyke, Steve O’Keefe and Todd Scott were the only Junior Ravens that had starting experience. This is where the Junior Ravens had to begin. All through the year there were still positions up for grab. Coach Dick Hunninghake said, “We were a young team with 18 new positions to fill on offense and defense. The first part of the season I knew we wouldtetart off slow as evident in the first two games where we won against Leblond 7-6 and lost to Nemaha Valley 14-8. Then we would start working together as a team and begin to peak around playoff time like we did against winning Atchison High 35-7 and against Marysville 36-24.” Going into the district playoffs the Junior Ravens were 3-3. The team decided to start fresh again and to play tough to get into playoffs. Starting out by beating ACCHS 27-0 then Jeff West 33-12. The season rested on a climactic game against Atchison High. There was no contest the final was Tim Van Dyke and a Sabetha defender go up for an O’keefe pass. Van Dyke lead the team in pass reception all year. Maur Hill 35 Atchison 7. Going into the Bi-District gome against favored Marysville who were undefeat- ed Maur Hill defeated them 36-24. When it came time to play Regional game against Aquinas, who had revenge in their eyes, they won in a hard fought battle 14-7. “Just when it was getting fun and exciting the season ended”, said Mike Runyan, Atchison, Senior. When the season ended and the pads were put away for another year honors were given out. Only one person made all league on offense was John Miller at offensive guard. On defense two people made all league: Mike Runyan made it at defensive end and Tim Van Dyke made it at defensive halfback. Those making Honorable mention were Todd Scott at Defensive End and Steve O’keefe at Defensive Halfback. Making All-State Class 4A was Tim Van Dyke at Defensive Halfback. “It’sa real honor to be chosen All-State. We had a good season this year and I had a lot of help” said Tim. “The one thing 1 hate at the end of the season is seeing all the Seniors leave. They did a good job for us this year. All years Seniors do have to leave and Juniors step up to Seniors to lead the team, then they leave. We had a good season I was proud of them,” said Coach John Flynn (story by Todd Scott) Varsity Football Date Opponent MH Opp. Sept. 13 LeBlond 7 6 Sept. 20 Nemaha Valley 8 14 Sept. 27 Royal Valley 49 0 Oct. 8 Holton 14 24 Oct. 12 Sabetha 15 22 Oct. 18 Hiawatha 20 0 Oct. 25 A.C.C.H.S. 27 0 Oct. 31 Jeff West 33 12 Nov. 8 Atchison 35 7 Nov. 12 Marysville 36 24 Nov. 16 Aquinas 7 14 Final Record 7-4 • Linebacker Rich Dickason tackles a Sabetha ball carrier for a big loss in the homecoming game.

Varsity Football 63 Experience Pays off The beginning of the season did not look good for the Cross Country runners. A new coach Eric Boll, never before involved in Cross Country. Boll had a tough job in preparing the runners for regionals and state. These races were three miles long instead of two miles as the runners were used to. The Raven runners were plagued by injuries early on to increase their difficulties. Runners Dan Moriarity, Dan Bowen, and Aaron Brom, were the runners finishing at the top in most meets. The team had its over all strength too finishing first at Hiawatha, Royal Valley, and Big Seven league. When this season started, coach Eric Boll, was totally new to the sport of Cross Country, but he did know how to coach. He applied his coaching knowledge very effec- tively. He had two factors that helped him, he had a good team with experience and talent, and he had an excellent assistant coach in Damien Ahrens. “I was not sure what to expect this year, but to say the least I was very happy with the outcome of the season. The runners were very dedicated and ran well consistently” added Eric Boll, Chatanouga, TN. This was one of the strongest teams Maur Hill has had in years. The first three mile race the runners competed in was probably their poorest showing. Yet by the time the next three mile race came around, which was at regionals, the team was better prepared. The team placed sixth and Dan Moriarity finished seventh individual to qualify him for state competition where he finished twenty second. Over all the Raven runners had an excellent season, “As a senior I felt very satisfied with this years results. We won the Big Seven League meet and now this years team will be remembered because of our first banner in the gym. Maur Hill Cross Country has come a long way lately and looks promis- ing for the next few years” said Dan Bowen, Atchison, Senior.

Cross Country 65 TEAMWORK MAKES SUCCESS “The Academy 1985 volleyball team showed a great degree of determination, desire, and dedication during the sea- son,” stated Coach Joyce Thompson. The Lady Ravens took their 4A Sub- State for the second year in a row and are ranked 8th in the state. “Each player strived for high individual and team goals that were set £t the beginning of the year. They were an example of tremen- dous team unity,” added Thompson. “I think our volleyball team showed a lot of character. We suffered many set backs during the season, but we managed to pull everything together at the end of the season. We played up to our poten- tial during Sub-State at Hiawatha and won. If we can play the whole season next year at that level we should be close to unbeatable,” commented Sara Van Dyke, Atchison, Junior. Julie Blodig, Atchison senior said, “We could of done alot better in state but winning Sub-State was good enough for me. I think we proved this year that what we lacked in power, we made up for in depth and teamwork. I’m really excited for next years season,” replied Trisha Lacey, Atchison, Junior. When asked about next years season Kim Wohlgemuth, Atchison, Junior said, “We’re looking for our best season to be next year. We all want to do it for Coach Thompson.” Future volleyball for the Academy looks very promising with the team losing only two seniors this year, (story by Molly Klebba) Denise Wolters dinks the ball over as two Holton defenders go up for a block.

When the season begins you can feel the tension in the air. Wrestlers talk about the weight they need to drop. Lunches are skipped and sometimes dinner. Darryl Wag- ner team Captain said, “There are some days I can’t eat anything because I have to stay at a certain weight in order to wrestle that night. You need to have a lot of self discipline in order to sustain yourself from eating.” Again the team faced another coaching change. This time Coach Eric Boal has the job along with two new assistants from Benedic- tine College. They are Pat Hirsch and Larry Green, “Who have been great assistance”, noted by Coach Eric Boal. All three coaches come in the program with good experience and were ready to help the young team compete. The season began midway through De- cember with a triangular with Holton and Hiawatha, but the grapplers of Maur Hill experienced difficulty with both teams losing to both. The teams success was going to be up to good leadership. The team mainly consist- ed of the stronger wrestlers in the middle weight and lighter weight division because of the lack of heavy weights. Because of the lack of heavy weights the team would suffer in tournament play. Out of 12 teams faced during the duals and triangulars the team would only record 3 wins. At regionals the grapplers of Maur Hill would take seventh at Washburn Rural, but in a good note four wrestlers would be sent to state: Darryl Wagner, Steve Schuele, Dan Bowen and Curt Wagner. These four went to Wichita and represented Maur Hill well. “We had a young and inexperienced team this year with only two seniors Dan Bowen and Captain Darryl. Despite our inexperience the team competed very well this year,” said Coach Boal. (story by Todd Scott) nd four to state.

JUNIOR VARSITY SHOWS PROGRESS The Academy Junior Varsity Basket- ball team showed a great amount of poten- tial throughout their season. This year the Academy’s assistant coach, Rita Lundstrum, was a student from Benedictine College. Her enthusiasm of the sport was passed on to the players and really helped them to keep up their spirits through some very tough losses. Coach Rita Lundstrum expresses her opinion of the season, “Even though our record doesn’t show it, we had a pretty successful season. We improved with each game and played every team better the second time around.” Kelly Harris, Atchison sophomore said, “during our season we progressed slowly but surely, there were a lot of ups and downs but we kept on trying. I think the fact that we never gave up and continued to have faith in each other was a big help to us.” Jennifer Buessing, Atchison, freshman said, “There was a lot of frustrating loses, our record wasn’t very good but each of us improved in different areas. This year we were young and it was mainly just a season to gain experience, next year we’ll be ready for anyone.” Patty Klebba, Linn Mo., sophomore stated, “We had a rough season, we lost a couple of close games and it took us a while to learn to play with each other. Hopefully next year we’ll be ready to go right from the start. This year the Academy only had six girls out for the freshman team and had to cancel their season. Three freshmen continued to play basketball and made up part of the Junior Varsity team. They had to learn to play with older girls. Everyone had to gain experience to better themselves and prepare for next year. So the Lady Ravens should be flying high in future seasons, (story by Molly Klebba) Michelle Scott shows good form as she shoots the ball over a Nemaha Valley defender.

Basketball LADY RAVENS GAIN EXPERIENCE The Academy Varsity Basketball squad overcame many obstacles throughout the 1985 - ’86 season. Along with a young team the Academy also had a new head coach, Mr. Ken Meyer. When asked about the season he commented, “The year went about as I expected. The team progressed with each game and by the end of the year they knew what it took to have success. Hopefully, each member will continue on improving themselves and work on becoming a stronger team. Dedication and self-disci- pline shown through the season will help in next years season.” Sara Lange, Atchison sophomore said, “Our season didn’t go too bad. We were a really young team and gained a lot of experience this year. Hopefully that will help us out next year so that we can come back being a more confident and uniform team.” “The season was way too short for me. We should have gone farther in Sub- State but we just couldn’t seem to make it click. We went through some times when no one could seem to find the basket, next year we’ll have to work on that,” said Paula McFarland, Atchison junior. Micah Purslow, Atchison junior described the season by saying, “We had the potential to do better and go a lot further but things didn’t go our way. Next year will be a lot better, now that we have experience and we know how each other plays, all we have to do is put it together.” The Academy will have ten return- ing players for next year. They will lose only two seniors, unlike many other league teams which should be a big plus for next years Academy basketball team, (story by Molly Klebba) The Academy Varsity team consists of: Manager Trisha Lacey, Sara Van Dyke, Paula McFarland, Sara Lange, Angie Miller, Micah Purslow, and Manager Aoly Flores.

Start off right is what the freshmen did. They played Hiawatha at home beating them badly, 39-12. After the win, the team was preparing for the Midway Tournament. Go- ing in with a win under their belt the Freshmen were ready. They won their first game but they met a tougher opponent in a second game against Jeff North. It was a hard fought game down to the finish but Jeff North came on top by one at the buzzer. The following game for third place was played against Effingham. The freshmen won this handily 37-28 taking third place. “The tour- nament should have been won by us because we were the better team, but that’s the breaks and third place isn’t that bad. We had some close games this year they were a lot of fun,” said Mark Kocour, Atchison, freshman. The regular season was back in full swing again but for the next three games the team would fall into a slump losing to Royal Valley, Atchison Jr. High and General Patton. It was back to the drawing board and harder prac- tices. Evidently the harder practices paid off, and for the next four games the freshmen would dominate proving to keep its domain over Jeff West, Leblond and Effingham. The last regular seasons games would end on a sour note though losing the last two. Carl Hagan, Atchison, KS freshman said, “We played a lot of good teams and I think we played hard this year. I can’t wait to get a chance to play the teams that beat us this year next season.” In the Big 7 league tournament the freshmen won one game and lost the second to rival Nemaha Valley. The team has great hope in the future for the Maur Hill Basketball team. They have great size and quickness. Carl Hagan and Kevin Cummings were the big men inside who fought the boards all year long. Mark Kocour and Dan Carrigan both give the team quick- ness they needed throughout the year. “It was fun coaching the Freshmen this year. They’re a bunch of hard workers. To be successful in the future years they will need to keep up this hard work and effort,” said Freshmen Basketball Coach John Flynn. (Story by Todd Scott). Kevin Cummings takes a set shot from the baseline against Atchison Jr. High. Cum- mings played a major roll in the success of the team.

Gliding through the air, Mark Kocour con- verts a fastbreak lay-up. Mark proved to be a vital asset to the teams offense and defen- sive success. J.V. Has Frustrating Season At the beginning of each season there is always at least five new positions to fill on the Junior Varsity squad. There is always fierce competition for these positions, and this year was no exception. There was twelve players and all wanted to play. This is why its such a job to coach J.V. In practice the J.V. squad worked hard and long in hope for a starting position. Brook Pursolow, Atchison, sopho- more said, “Our practices were tough, we ran more than the varsity did. I think this helped us though, to stay in shape and in those close games we had. With all the height and speed the J.V. had, it seemed almost certain they would have a very successful season. Going into the season with an opener with Sabetha was a tough game to start with. At the end of the game the Bluejays were up by six. After this game the Junior Varsity dug down and were ready to play their next opponent, Jeff West. The J.V. proved to be ready beating them in a hard fought battle. Even after getting on the right track the next two games ended in defeat. The ravens were ready to release their frustration on an unsuspecting Effingham team. The J.V. came on the court and that was all they needed to do. beating Effingham rather handily. “It seemed like we finally played like we really knew how in this game. We finally started playing like a team” said Mike Galley, Atchison, junior. After this game it seemed the J.V. were back in the winning track but for the next five games the J.V. would find themselves losing games they should of won. In these games they would lose by no more than three points. Even the next game was lost by one point. This season seemed to be bad luck season for the hard fighting J.V. players. The frustration would now set in and the team would find them- selves losing seven games before their next win. This win came against Effingham and an eventful game it was the J.V. would win 76 - 27. It was a game of revenge towards the frustrating season. The next two games turned out to be dog fights again losing to a total of five points in both games. They did in a thriller against Hiawatha beating them 57 - 55. “All we needed this season was just a few more baskets. Thats how close our games were. These types of games made the season exciting though, but it was also heartbreaking, said coach Rick Folsom, (story by Todd Scott) Mike Galley concentrates on a free throw being fouled. Galley’s leadership at the point guard was a major part of the team’s success.

Harrington often hit from the corner and was the teams third leading scorer. During the season the team of the 85-86 season put their name down on record books. To start off it was the first time that a Maur Hill team has won the Big 7. The compiled record was 17-3 was the best record in Maur Hill history. The honors throughout the year go to Rob Harrington, Steve O’Keefe and Tim Van Dyke who were named to the Immac. tournament team. O’Keefe was also named M.V.P. of the tournament. The teams success was due to the good play of everybody on the team. Those leading the team in scoring were O’Keefe, Harrington and Vandyke. It would never have been a successful season without the help of the others who came in the game to give the starters a break. “We were fortunate to have good people to come off the bench to relieve the starters added coach Hunninghake. At the beginning of the year there was a goal to reach state. The season ended prematurely though and the dream stopped by a stingy Shawnee Heights team, (story by Todd Scott) Where can you start? It was that type of season for the Maur Hill Jr. Ravens. To begin this season the Raven cagers had three starters returning and four others who could easily fill those empty spots. The Ravens knew they had a well balanced team and should go a long way as they worked hard and kept up the intensity. Ten seniors would occupy the very experienced team. When the season began the team was ready to play. “I knew from the beginning of the season that we would play hard because of the intensity we came into the season with. Our team was ready to play from game one until the finish,” said head coach Richard Hunninghake. The Ravens opened the season against what would end up being the team to beat for the Big 7 title, the Sabetha Blue Jays. The Ravens, as it would be for the next 10 games, would win. and win they did with great confidence. During the 10 game span the Ravens took first place in the Immac. tourna- ment. The next game the Ravens would hit a short slump and lose. But that would be the last until Sub- state. “We played well this season, but as it showed in the end we needed a more competitive schedule. I wish we could have done better in the play-offs but winning the league is good enough,” said Steve O’Keefe Achiston Ks senior. Mike Runyan cuts off a Nemaha Valley opponent in the lane while Tom Senecal and Tim Van Dyke anticipate the action. Runyan played a major role on defense also pulling down many rebounds. Sitting back in a zone defense, the Ravens look for another steal. The defense played extremely well causing many turnovers and thus running the break to perfection in the rout of Nemaha Valley 80 - 53. Maneuvering around the defense Rob Harrington prepares to put up a shot. Harrington’s agility and finesse often enabled him for shots like this one. Starting this game like practically all others, Steve O’Keefe wins the jump tipping it to a teammate. Rob Harrington anxiously awaits the outcome hoping for a quick bucket. 78 Boys Varsity Basketball Rockwell International Off-Highway products, Supply Driveline Division Rockwell International Corporation , Metal Castings-Atchinson Plant Fourth and Park Streets P.O.

Mr. Wilson, GAA sponsor is trying more things to draw more people’s interest. He says, “There has been a decline in participation since the first of the year but GAA could be a good positive organization if it can continue to receive the students support, if the support is not continued then the club will end up as nothing.” Having 5 people in a band can sound real bad but with Ms. Weissar it sounds good.

The pep club was vital to the teams success and very loyal. Stuco, Pep club, Maurite, Mt. Views, Tatler, S.I.R.ChH., Cheerleading, Band, GAA, and Drama are all clubs at Maur Hill and the Academy. The student body joins these clubs to arouse spirit in the schools, to make new friends, and to have fun. Club meetings are usually after school although some may take place during the school day. Pep club has approximately 90 members. This is one of the biggest clubs ever. Kanren Handke, Atchison, Sophomore, says, “I think clubs are good. Everyone can get together. I don’t think pep club was good because of the disputes of the dress code. I think they could be a little more lenient.” S.I.R.C.H. is doing well too. They have 61 members and some came late.

The Maur Hill and Academy Student Councils play a major role in each of their schools. StuCo this year kept school events and social events up to the highest of stan- dards. The StuCo at Maur Hill did a lot for establishing relations between the faculty and the students. The StuCo did a very good job of arranging social events and various types of activities. Greg Herman, StuCo President, said, “The Student Council has been very productive this year as compared to years before. We met regularly and discussed many things asked of us by the students. Although we couldn’t always get things done our way, I feel as if we voiced the student opinion well.” Maur Hill StuCo has done a good job in creating good school spirit and getting all students to participate actively. At the Academy to StuCo plays almost the same role as Maur Hill’s. The Academy Student Council makes plans for dances, faculty activities, and other school events. The Academy StuCo handles the traditional events at the Academy including such things as Rose and Candle, The Father-Daughter Dance, and Dark and Light Day. Angela Domann, Academy Student Council Presi- dent said, “I feel the Student Council has accomplished many of things we wanted to do. StuCo has achieved many things for the students such as letting senior girls leave the school building after finishing eating at lunch, being allowed to wear shaker sweaters with their uniforms, and putting a suggestion box in that led to the ideas for some of the Academy’s changes.” As the year went on both Student Councils strove to work together and also achieve their independent goals. StuCo at both schools have done a good job and established a link between faculty and stu- dents that can only make things better.

Staff Works Hard The Maurite staff is quite inex- perienced in the way that they only have three returning from last year. The new class has certainly found the meaning of the word “deadline.” A staff member Dorthy Amrein, Atchison, Jr. says, “I had a rough time trying to make the first dead- line. I rushed around for the last three days and finally got my pages in. My next deadline will be in before it is due.” Business manager Mark Gel- lings, Atchison Sr. said,“I mostly keep track of the financial records to make sure we come out ahead. And along with Steve O’Keefe we handle all money situations.” Maurite edi- tor, Greg Herman, has had a tough job in teaching the class the skills and processes that produce the yearbook. The Maurite staff gets ads from local merchants which helps them pay for the yearbook. Each mistake that the staff makes costs them a pretty penny, therefore editor Greg Herman edits the pages carefully before sending them to the publish- ing company. Herman states, “If I’d send in the pages the way they come to me sometimes, we’d be broke.” “I think yearbook is a neat class. It is totally a student project and we can devise it in whatever way we want. The only real drawback of the class is that it is first hour and it is such a rush to get everything cleaned up to move on to second hour. It would benefit us if the class was eighth period,” said Atchison senior, Tim Paulich. (Story by Daneen Wagner). Working on her story, Angela Domann hurries to get it finished.

With many people returning from last years staff and a new computer to help organize things, the staff turned out many good products. “This year’s staff has also made changes in the papers format trying to make this year’s paper unique from all the others,” said Scott Darrenkamp, editor. This year Tatler staff is quite well equipped with many more members than in the past. The photographers this year have turned in very good pictures for the paper adding to its attractiveness. The news editor of the Tatler this year is Jeff Growney, Atchison junior. Growney has been very essential in helping with the assignments of new stories, and also the layout of the paper. Growney stated, “I feel that with more time and experience, the Tatler and its staff will be putting out good journalism with the high Maur Hill standards The Tatler has made a lot of progress and hopefully The 1985-86 Tatler Staff: (front) Scott Darrenkamp, Ed Begley, John Libel, Curt Wagner, Tim Giles, Jeff Growney, Chris Wetzel, (back) Matt Malloy, Kurt Forge, Daryl Wagner, Mike Keimig, Don Libel, Jeff Charlton, Matt McKracken, Alejo Alamillo, Kevin Johnson, Renato Aves, Pat Quinn, Charles Adams. will be recognized for its ability.” Also added to the staff this year was a computer. All reporters on the staff use the computer to write their stories. “Using the computer not only saves time, but it also saves us the money it would cost us to have the printers set the type in columns,” said Kurt Forge, Atchison, Junior. The Tatler’s larger staff along with good experience has helped turnout good papers this year. Many Juniors are on the staff so this will continue onto next year, hoping that the paper will be just as good or better. (Story by Mike Lutz). 88 Tatler Editor Scott Darrenkamp proofreads a story.

MOUNT VIEWS . Strives i . to Be Better The 1985-1986 Mount View staff: Tina Boldridge, Checka Cheroutes, Jennifer Burbach, Libby Durkin, Geri Lynn Pickman. Libby Durkin and Geri Lynn Pickman discuss the latest issue of the Mount Views. Because of a small staff, the paper had only a few issues. Kelly Maier takes time out of writing her story to listen to a comment made in class. This year’s staff had only five members. The Mt. Views Staff has been striving to be better than ever this year. They have six members on staff this year, which is one more than last year. A new addition to the staff this year is the computer. The Academy has a new computer in the library of which the Mt. Views staff type up their articles. They have had to learn all the procedures and precautions concerning the use of the computer. Although it takes a lot of time to learn these skills, it will pay off in the future. “I’m very excited about the computer and teaching the girls some word processing skills,” said Mrs. Riley, instructor of the Mt. Views. “They caught on very quickly and are doing well on it. I feel it’s a skill that they will be able to take on with them in more than one way — in business and school.” The girls on the staff this year are enthused and excited about their paper. Libby Durkin, Atchison, Sr., explained, “We need the school to get more involved and serious about it. It’s representing their school,” she goes on to say, “It’s a good class to have and everyone cooper- ates to give quotes. Students like to see their names in the school newspaper.” Although there is a lot of work for six girls to do, they have a positive attitude about it.“Mt. Views is a fun class that I enjoy,” says Jennifer Burbach, Marcel- _ ine, Mo., Jr., “but we need more student | cooperation. Our class consists of only I six people, and with more students we | could get much more accomplished. The | Mt. View staff hopes to see a lot more $ participation in the future. They hope to s make their newspaper better than ever. | (Story by Daneen Wagner) CHEERLEADERS Cheerleaders Raise Spirit The Maur Hill cheerleaders heightened spirit throughout the 1985-86 sports year, the cheerleaders attended all home and away games. Football season was a challenge for the cheerleaders at times because of all the rainy weather. Despite the weather the cheerleaders yelled the their heart’s content. This past summer the squad attended the ICF Cheerleading Camp at Kansas University. They received 5 ribbons for various things such as effort, smiling, and giving it their all. The squad was pleased with their performance. Jamie Keeley, Sr., said, “It would help if we got more support from both schools because neither school gives us enough support. The only one who helps us any is Fr. Edwin who gives us the Bob Goalby jackets.” “I think the squad is alot better than in the past years. I wish we could get more support - the support of people yelling and being proud of our teams!”, ex- claimed Daneen Wagner, Sr., In the future the cheerleaders hope to see more girls interested in cheerleading and pep club. “I hope to see more enthusiasm in our crowd. I enjoy cheering and hope others can also enjoy it so that we can support our teams”, answered Betsy Smith Jr. “I also hope to hear more support at least at the home games!” (Story by Kim Woghlemuth) Waiting for lineup of starters, Shannon Cheerleaders Daneen Wagner, Sr. and Jamie Keeley, Rawlings and Betsy Smith hold the mount. At Sr., finish off the cheer with smiles. These two were the camp the cheerleaders learned many different only seniors on the squad this year, mounts and partner stunts. 90 During a time out of a basketball game the squad performs a cheer.

Jamie Keely - Sr. Erin Russell - Soph. Daneen Wagner - Sr. Betsy Smith - Jr. PEP CLUB Boys Rule Pep Club The Pep Club stand watching the Game, while Cheerleader Shannon Rawlings watches the Pep Club. The cheerleaders are a vital influence on the crowd and the game. Pep Club has changed in the last few years. It seems to have a large enrollment at registration but a lot of members lose interest throughout the year. During the first few foot- ball games many Pep Club members were present and cheered with the cheerleaders. Throughout the sea- sons less and less people came in support of their teams. As fewer and fewer girls came from Pep Club, more boys came. The boys cheered with the cheerleaders, got rowdy and showed the much needed spirit. The cheerleaders au- tomatically cheered to the boys because they would yell with them. Mike Lasater, Atchison, Senior says, “The Maur Hill and Mount Pep Club is incredible. It amazes me to see the majority of the students body in one corner of the gym screaming their brains out. I think Pep Club is one of the many clubs that shows a binding unity between students.” Morgan Dohne, Dallas, Texas, Seniors says, “Pep Club has been fun. It’s kinda weird to see people who aren’t that crazy at school let loose to cheer at the games.” The Pep Club has been a success in the past and we hope it to be a success in the future. Soon there may not be a Pep Club, maybe it will be an all boys cheering section. This could be very possible in the near future. People need to get more involved and cheer for their team. After all they are representing our school.

Drama DRAMA - A SITUATION COMEDY “This year the Drama Club has been reinforced by a well organized constitu- tion and a large membership. With this as a stepping stone, we hope to do many productive things in the future,” said Heather O’Herin, Gladstone, MO. “Mr. Schroeder was a very good director. He helped us a lot and gave us new ideas on character development and voice projection,” said Senior Justin Caraway, Lubbock, TX. The theater department was aided this year by the purchase of a brand new lighting system and curtains. Mr. Schroeder, drama instructor, said “I think that the new equipment will be a great improvement in Maur Hill the- ater.” The fall production, “You Can’t Take It With You” was a comedy about a rather eccentric family and their encounter with a rich socially elite family. Sara Eggers, Atchison Frosh, said, “I thought the fall show went well. We made a lot of money and it was a lot of fun.” The spring show, Bull In a China Shop,” is a small cast comedy about six old maids who are infatuated with a young police detective. Joe Curry, Atchi- son Senior, said, “I think the spring production was very good. Everyone knew their lines and worked together to make it a success.” As the drama club looks to the future, they hope to increase their enrollment and produce more successful plays. Kris Lawson, Plano, TX, said, “Next year should be a very good year for the drama club. Our members are young and should gain experience over the next few years.” (story by Justin Caraway) Julie Brown does some ballet for her part in the drama club’s fall production. “You can’t take it with you” Bowen played the part of Essie. Several of the cast members are sitting at the table discussing hobbies. This was one of the many amusing scenes of the production. Cynthia Guinn applies make-up to Chris Wetzel before the play. All of the actors had to wear make-up for the play. BAND Band Declines In Enrollment The Pep Band consisting of Maur Hill and Academy students in the past has taken a turn for the worse. It seems instructor, Miss Julie Weishaar, lost many band members last year, therefore leaving her with a small class. The band, in the 1985- 86 schoolyear, consists soley of Maur Hill students (and only five at that). According to past members of the band, many lost interest during the 84-85 schoolyear for various reasons such as lack of recognition and poor organization. “I didn’t want to take band again because I felt like it was a waste of my time. I enjoy playing my instrument but not enough to devote all my time to practice that won’t get me anywhere,” said Platt City, Mo. Junior, Cynthia Guinn. The pep band only performs 3- 5 times a year although they do play at a couple home football games also. “It seems a shame that at the home basketball games a recording of the National Anthem has to be played. Most schools we travel to has a band play it and it sounds really good,” said Atchison Junior Trisha Lacey. Hopefully in the next few years, Weishaar will pick up a few more musicians to help form their goal: “an acceptable band to all.” (Story by Kim Wohlgemuth) Jocbethem Tahapary and Chris Roth play at the Academy Christmas dinner.

This year there are four officers and they are all senior day students. In past years, there have been boarders and underclassmen in the offices. Secretary Garie Jean Martin said, “I think S.I.R.C.H. has done a great job this year. I have had a lot of fun.” In October, the S.I.R.C.H. club participated in the Crop Walk and in October they held their traditional Hal- loween party for the Happy Hearts preschool. Angels Domann, Atchison senior said, “The S.I.R.C.H. club is a fun and worthwhile club. They have a lot of worthwhile activities that they take part in.” For Valentine’s Day they sold Val- entines between schools. The money was saved to start a new tradition. This year the S.I.R.C.H. Club planned an Easter Hunt and party for the Happy Hearts preschool children in March. They had an easter egg hunt, games, cake and punch. The party was a success. In November, around Thanksgiving S.I.R.C.H. gave food to Atchison’s needy families by having a food drive. This year there were sixty-one mem- bers in S.I.R.C.H. Although there wer- en’t as many members as last year the officers feel they had a successful year. Julie Geiger, Robinson, Ks. senior said, “S.I.R.C.H. is a good way for students to become more involved in school and community activities and have fun at the same time.” (story by Daneen Wagner) President Laura Meyer and vice-president Daneen Wagner listen to members of their ideas on the S.I.R.C.H.

DFL Strengthens in Number and Experience The Maur Hill Debate and Forensics League (DFL) is a club at Maur Hill to which members of the debate and forensics teams belong. Now in its second year of existence, the club contains twenty members. In May of last year, elections were held to determine who would be the four officers of the DFL for the following year. John Miller, Atchison senior, was re-elected as President. Rich Dickason, Atchison junior, advanced in the elections from Treasurer to Vice-President. Dan Moriarty, Atchison senior, was elected to be Secretary. Justin Caraway, senior, was elected to the post of Treasurer. “The purpose of DFL is to provide recognition for all of those who participate in debate and forensics. By providing recognition for these individ- uals, the DFL hopes to increase the interest and participation in debate and forensics at Maur Hill” according to John Miller. Dan Moriarty, states, “One way in which the DFL provides recognition for its members is by communicating their accomplishments to the National Forensics League.” The National Forensics League is a nationwide organization that bestows honors on individ- uals who are involved in public speaking. Debate and forensics at Maur Hill have been steadily improving in the last few years. Again this year, the debate and forensics team members have proven to be very successful. Debate and forensic team members also seem to be benefiting much from these two pro- grams. Rich Dickason said, “I believe that my participation in debate and forensics at Maur Hill has helped me tremendously. It has improved my speaking, writing, and organiz- ing abilities.” Scott Pueker, Atchison sophomore, states, “Debate and forensics are a lot of work, but they are very educational and overall enjoyable.” Dan Pombo, sophomore, said, “Debate and forensics taught me how to speak in front of others, a lesson which I’m glad I’ve learned.” (story by Daneen Wagner) Doing his serious solo, Joseph Curry portrays a young black man in Vietnam. Curry is one of the seven seniors on the Forensic team. Conducting a DFL meeting John Miller and Rich Dickason discuss new business.

The subjects like Math, History, Science and English may seem useless now, but, someday you’ll be glad that you were forced to take them. You never can tell, the class that you hate the most may end up being what you study in college or what you needed most in the job you get after graduation. What would you have done if you hadn’t taken the class and they told you you couldn’t have this excellent job? Here at Maur Hill and the Academy, the school tries to meet the needs of all the students. The classes are diverse and the requirements are set to meet the needs of the many students wishing to go on to college. Also these requirements help those other students who decide not to go to college. The existing exchange of students between the Academy and Maur Hill helps offer a larger curriculum. The cooperation between schools helps the students who have schedule conflicts at Maur Hill, they can go to a class at the Academy, and the academy students can go to Maur Hill. The academics at this school is one of the most underrated aspects of the school, but, it’s one of the best, (story by Dorothy Armerien) Dan Moriarty concentrates on his French homework.

Speech Helps Students Mature Speech, a class required by all students to graduate, is a course which helps us communicate with others. Most students take the class as freshmen unless they come to Maur Hill their sophomore year or later. Speech often prepares students for college and future career opportunities. For those who wish to continue after first year speech, there is debate and forensics. Debate is taught the first semester during debate season. Debate class discusses the resolution of the year, and two man teams write up affirmative and negative causes which they use in debate meets. Forensics is taught second semester and it ranges from original oration to improvised duet acting. All members of the class choose one or two events to participate in and work on their speeches or acts for forensics meets during the year. Many students work very hard and often place well at meets. “I think Dan and I have a very good duet act this year. I think we have a good chance to do well in the state competition,” said Brian Schroeder. This year the speech department changed instructors for the third time in four years. This year the department is headed by Mr. Greg Schroeder, Sioux City, IA. “Forensics give the student an opportunity to grow and mature in a way no other activities can,” he said, (story by Greg Herman) Rich Dickason gives his speech in class. Practic- ing speech is very vital to doing well in meets. Mr. Schroeder lectures to his speech class, about communicating in society. Mr. Schroe- der was the new speech teacher this year. Drew Storie and Paul Simon act out their duet act at a meet. Many students from speech go to forensics meets to compete. Speech 101 Sewing Teaches Basic Skills 102 Sewing Micah Purslow and Michelle Scott look over patterns to decide what to make. Opinions of others often help students decide what to sew. Sewing is an elective offered to girls to show them the basic skills of sewing. Sewing II is offered to those who wish to continue in their quest of sewing skills. Sewing requires that you have four projects completed each semester. Sew- ing II requires that the girls do more difficult projects which take more time. Many girls find getting their projects done a challenge while others find it easy. “Sewing is a good class to take, I like sewing very much because you can sit down and relax while doing your work.” said Daneen Wagner, Atchison, Senior. The class chooses the project which they want to do and the teacher places some requirements on their projects. Marlene Corpstien, Nortonville is the sewing instructor. This is her first year at teaching, and she has gone over very well with the students. Students are graded on if they get their projects done and how well the project comes out. Students make everything from blazers to skirts. In stitchery students do a variety of things including needlepoint, crochet, and making quilts. “Stitchery is a very challenging class, the projects we do take a lot of time to complete.” said Jamie Keeley, Belleville, IL, Senior. Sewing is a good class to take and helps girls understand the basics of clothing construction. While the class seems easy at times often students are pressed projects done on time, (story by Dorthy Amerien) Mizuho Sakamoto asks for assistance of Mrs. Corpstien on her stitchery project while Cindy Hartley quietly works on her knitting. Working hard to get her sewing completed, Cynthia Guinn guides her material through the machine. Students work many hours on the machines to get their sewing done. Mr. Andra explains a problem to Elisa Karleskint, while others in the class look on. Students find that Mr. Andra’s class is easy to understand. The Maur Hill Geometry class tries to understand how to do their homework. Geometry takes a lot of time and hard work. Getting extra help, Betsy Smith listens while Sr. Cristelle explains an algebra problem. Algebra II and Trigonometry is taught during sixth period in both schools. Combining Does Wonders This year in the mathematics de- partment, the second year of the com- bined mathematics department of the Academy and Maur Hill, classes are going well. The combined department helps the students learn more math skills, because they are grouped with other students who are learning at the same speed. This grouping allows the students to get the most out of their math classes. The new department is quickly making upward progress. This progress should continue upward if the combined math departments keep going as well as they are this year. “I like the new grouping of the math classes. I feel more confident in a class that I can do well in, instead of a class where everything goes over my head,” says Sabrina Piper, Atchison, Junior. “I like my math class this year. It’s going pretty good and I’m even learning something,” says Susan Wolters, Atchi- son, Jr. Denise Wolters, Atchison, Jr. says, “Sr. Christelle is a good teacher. She makes the class interesting and she’s helping me learn a lot this year.” Molly Klebba, Linn, Mo., Junior enjoys her algebra class, “Even though I don’t always catch all of the explana- tions this class is one of my favorites this year.” (story by Dorthy Ameriea). L Hurriedly finishing her homework, Cynthia Guinn, prepares for her Algebra class. Algebra is one of the more challenging of the Math classes. Math 103 Science Challenges All The Science courses at Maur Hill and the Academy are diverse and interesting. The classes range from Biology to Zoology to Physics and Chemistry, not forgetting the challenging course of Anatomy and Physiolo- gy- These classes challenge the student’s minds and help them prepare for college science courses. Chris Galbreath, Atchison, Senior said “This class is very challenging. I need to study a lot to keep my grade up.” In the Academy, Sr. Cleta Haug teaches Biology I and II classes. These classes are required for all academy and Maur Hill students. Biology I and II classes are enjoyed by many of the students including, Cyndy Andra, Atchison, Sophomore who says “This year Biology is more fun because we get to do more experiments and work with animals in these experiments.” Collin Cleary, Norborne, MO, Sopho- more says “This is my first year of Biology and I am finding it very interesting.” Something new in the Biology depart- ment this year is the science projects which all Biology II students must do. Sr. Cleta says about these science projects, “We have some very original projects this year but some of the same old problems like; tumors don’t grow when expected, pictures come out blank, etc. However, all will succeed with perseverence.” The Science department is very strong at Maur Hill and the Academy. Students have many choices in choosing their electives for science. These courses are very challeng- ing and teaches students very much, (story by Dorothy Ameriean) Seeking assistance, Threasa Baker, asks Sr. Cleata a question about biology. Sr. Cleata teaches both first and second year biology at the Academy. The Biology class listens attentively as Mr. Forge explains the homework he just assigned. Mr. Forge teaches both Biology and Zoology at Maur Hill. Dan Bowen, Julie Geiger, and Julie Blodig find humor in their chemistry experiment. Chemistry is one of the more difficult science classes offered. Chris Scheule plans his next attack on the pig he is dissecting in Biology II. Experimenting and notetaking is a major part of Biology II. 104 Science Computer gives a Head Start Sara Van Dyke diligently types a program into the computer during her computer programming class. This class takes a lot of time and patience. Stan Lackey tries to make his computer program correctly. Computer Programming is taught four times daily. Photos by Justin Caraway There have been some changes in the computer classes this year with the addition of another new computer teach- er, Mr. Tim Warkentin, who teaches Computer Literacy and Computer Pro- gramming along with Mrs. Deborah McAllister. The students have reacted to the changes in many different ways. “I think computer class is fun and educational. The teacher lets us learn it on our own, but I think he needs to help us more.” says Stan Lackey, Mountain View, Ar- kansas, Jr. “This class is alright,”said Atchison Jr., Jennifer Gill, “it makes me think I know how to program a computer and it’s fun experimenting with the machine. The class should help me a lot in the future.” “A lot of us are learning something in computer, but a lot of it isn’t going to help us when we go to work on a computer later on,” stated Anne Brady, Atchison, Jr. “In the computer programming class, Mr. Warkentin needs to explain and help us more. On the programs we have done so far, there is little I under- stood and even less information that I retained. Other than that, I love it,” Commented Kris Lawson, Plano, TX, Jr. With computers supposedly being the link to the future, many students are quite interested in learning how to program one. Overall, the students felt that the idea of a computer class was a great way to get a head start in life, (story by Dorthy Amerien) Dan Moriarty and Greg Herman work on the computers over at the college. These two seniors take this advanced computer class at Benedictine. Trisha Lacey consults with Mr. Warkentin over a program she doesn’t understand. Computer Programming is difficult for many students. I Computer 105 Religion Unites Students With Faculty Religion class is one of the few required classes, but, it has a variety of topics to cover. Throughout your Fresh- man and Sophomore years courses are split between the Mount and Maur Hill. During Junior and Senior years the religion classes are mixed, with guys and girls in them. For the past few years the Juniors have been required to do a certain number of hours of Christian Service, depending on what grade they desire. What do the Juniors think of this? Kurt Forge, Atchison, Jr., commented, “For Christian Service I helped clean up the Kansas City Chiefs Stadium. It was hard work but I think that it’s really a good idea.” “Clowning for Christian Service was enjoyable but I don’t think we should have to do it for a good grade in religion class,” said Chris Wetzel, Evanston, II, Jr. A few new additions to the Religion staff this year are Brother Dan McCar- thy, who teaches Sophomore religion, and Brother Mark Broski, who teaches Church History to the Juniors. Although the idea of being required to take religion class is skeptical, the tradition goes on, and the Academy and Maur Hill students continue to learn more about their religion and strive for better values, (story by Molly Klebba) Jared Geiger asks Sr. Theresa a question during his Peace and Justice class. Sr. Theresa heads the Academy Religion classes. 106 Religion Brother John looks through his junior religion book while the students read their next assignment. Brother John is the head of Maur Hill religion department. Brother Mark checks his notes for a Church History lecture. Church History is one of the four quarter religion classes taught to the juniors. Brother John emphasizes a point in his freshman religion class. Br. John’s religion classes are enjoyed by all. Mr. Eric Boll takes the four minutes between classes to sit down and relax. The time between classes helps many teachers prepare for the next class. Mr. Ken Meyer looks over his notes before class. American History is taught seventh and eighth hours at the Academy. History - A Class of the Post History, those exciting classes, are studied many different ways at the Academy and Maur Hill. Besides the required classes, Government, American History, and World His- tory, at Maur Hill, there is Sociolo- gy, Ethnic Studies, Economics, and Geography. Most of these classes are taken to fill elective requirements. Although, at the Academy, Econom- ics is studied for a semester by all the seniors who aren’t in Govern- ment that semester. At the Academy, World History, American History, and Government are taught by Ken Meyer. Aoly Flores, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Se- nior, said, “Mr. Meyer is one of the better teachers at the Academy. He teaches well and also listens to his students both inside and outside of school. When we have problems, he is easy to talk to. He makes you feel comfortable. I feel that we should have more teachers like him.” Terry Wilson teaches Ethnic Studies, Economics and Sociology. Siob- han Trainer, Kansas City, Mo., Senior, commented, “I thought that Mr. Wilson was a very good teacher. There were many times that he expressed his opinions on certain subjects, but the students also got to express their own, I think that this is a very important aspect to have in any class.” At Maur Hill, Rick Folsom teaches U. S. History, Eric Boll teaches U.S. Government, and Fr. Camillus teaches World History. Steve Bartulica, St. Joe, Mo., Sophomore, said, “World History is a challenging class this year. We have to do a lot of studying for the tests, but I manage to do well on them anyways. I think that it is a good class to take, and I will get a lot out of it.” (story by Dorthy Amerien). Mary Kleinholtz shows a lot of inter- est in American History. This class is required for all Academy juniors. History 107 English Prepares Students for the Future The English programs at the Acad- emy and Maur Hill are designed to enhance basic english skills and prepare the students for college english courses. The english department strives to pro- vide a basic and quality education in english skills and grammar. This year there was a new addition to the english department at the Acad- emy, Mrs. Nancy Gingrass, is a part-time teacher of english I and she also teaches in the Academy ESL program. At Maur Hill, Father Thomas Fla- herty isn’t teaching english class First semester this year. Sister Joanna McCarthy is taking his place for the semester. She is teaching senior and freshman english classes. Sr. Joanna has her Bachelor of Arts degree, and is seeking her Masters degree. She needs only one more month of student teaching before she completes it. The english classes aren’t some of the easiest classes offered. They present a challenge, especially the College Com- position class that is taught at the Academy by Mary Lou Riley. College Comp is a composition class for senior which is offered for college credit. This class is challenging to many, including, Daneen Wagner, Atchison, Sr., who says, “College Comp is a tough class but, it will help me a lot in my college studies.” Beth Sylvester, York, NE, Sr., says, “I think it’s nice to be able to get some of my college English credits out of the way.” English this year is one of the more challenging required classes, but, the skills which are learned will be helpful to us in the future in many different areas, (story by Dorthy Amerien) Charlie Adams quickly tries to think of an answer to the teacher’s question. English isn’t one of his favorite classes. Mrs. Riley listens attentively to her Honors Lit class. Honors Lit is the Junior A-track English class. Carrie Kovar pays close attention to Mrs. Riley during her English class. You have to take a lot of notes in Mrs. Riley’s classes. The class devotes their attention to Curt Wagner as he recites his English paragraph before class. This is Maur Hill’s Junior English class. Brock Purslow looks through his book quickly. A few minutes of cramming before a quiz always helps. Variety of Foreign Languages There are a variety of languages taught at the Academy and Maur Hill. Among them are Spanish, French and Latin. Each are offered for four years if there is a desire among the students to continue. Colleges are now requiring at least two years of languages. Trisha Lacey, Atchison, Junior, said, “I’d like to apply at some well-known colleges with me having three years of Spanish, I should have no problem being accepted.” Foreign languages are tough to learn how to speak and write. Many students after just a couple of years of a language class, won’t be able to speak it fluently, but,they will know enough to carry on an intelligent conversation. Justin Caraway, Lubbock, Tx, Se- nior, and, “French is a very tough language. It takes a lot of study time and memorization to understand the fun- damentals of the language. Hopefully someday I’ll be able to visit France to use the three years of the French language I have acquired.” Angie Dickason, Atchison, Frosh, said, “This is my first year of Spanish and most of the time it has been enjoyable class. I plan on continuing in it at least one more.” Foreign langauge classes help bring down barriers between the American and Foreign students. Other foreign language classes help people understand English. Overall, these classes help peo- ple to understand the difficulty in learning another language. “I feel that my knowledge of Spanish has helped me a great deal in other classes especially English,” said, Chris Galbreath, Atchi- son, Senior. (Story by Mike Lesher) Describing her breakfast in Spanish, Amy- Buck says the Spanish word for each item in the picture. Students find that visual aids make learning a foreign language easier. Suzanne Brom and Siobhan Trainer discuss Kieran O’Hare works diligently on his latin Foreign Language 109 their french. Sometimes students work in tests. Latin is one of the harder foreign groups to help them learn the language. language classes. EFL and its Students EFL stands for English is a Foreign Language. This class is for Foreign students that attends Maur Hill and the Mount to learn English. These EFL students come from many different foreign countries and also many different cultural back- grounds. When a student comes to a foreign country to learn, he she must face many different changes such as a different type of culture, and a different style of life and also for some there is a radical change in climate. With a mixing of these different students from all different countries, they tend to learn about each other’s culture and way of life as well as the American life style. Most EFL students come to Maur Hill and the Academy to receive classes in which English is taught every day. The students hope to use the English skills they pick up when they return home. Learning and knowing English is an asset in most foreign countries because many international businesses use En- glish. Hopefully the EFL classes they are in will benefit them in the future. (Story by Mike Lesher) Angel Escobedo listens attentively to his EFL teacher. Humberto Garcia checks over his work during class. Carlos Wittgreen gets his home work done during class while others talk. Car- los is one of the many students who work hard in their EFL classes. Mrs. Forge explains a worksheet that she gave her students. The class listens to her lectures with interest. Erron Mims strives for perfection with his clay pot. Clay is a very hard medium to work with. Mike Galley carefully letters a sign. In art classes the students get to work on many different projects. Barb Jaegle rolls coils to strength her pot. Advanced art students have wide variety of projects to choose from. Art Room Gets New Location There were many changes in the 1985-86 school year in several clas- ses, including the Art and Ceramic programs. One of the changes this year was the moving of the art facility from Room 10 and 11 to the old ceramics studio in the old gym. This was alot of hard work but well worth the effort to many of the students. “Since the Art Room has changed location from the Academic building to the basement of the old gym, we have more freedom. We can turn the radio on and be noisy without disrupting any other classes. This is a good thing because this helps us to be alot more relaxed and lets our creativity flow,” said Joey Smith, Atchison Junior. With the moving of the Art program to the Ceramic Studio, both classes are combined and taught by Mrs. Angie Stuebs. “Mrs. Stuebs makes Art an enjoyable class be- cause of her knowledge and her guidance in class,” said Steve Schuele, Atchinson Junior. Dan Prohaska said this about Art, “This class is fun and also lets you get away from the pressures of everyday studenting. It also lets students show their creativity with different subject matter.” Art provides a way for students to show their talent and express their creativity in their work. Most stu- dents find art class very enjoyable and a challenge. (Story by Mike Lesher) Art 111 Business Classes Teach Useful Skills If you want to take an elective class that will provide opportunities for the future, then try one of the business classes. There is a variety of classes to choose from; Economics, Accounting, Business Math, Clerical Typing, and Business Law. The Business classes are taught by Sr. Rita Marie Mullen, Terry Wilson, and Geraldine Amerin at the Acad- emy and John Flynn at Maur Hill. These teachers hope to successfully prepare students for the future by teaching practical skills that will be used over and over. In these classes you will learn to manage your fi- nances and how to fill out income tax forms among many other things. Betsy Smith, Grand Cayman Islands, Junior, said, “I really enjoy typing especially when I know that it will help me find a summer job.” “Accounting class is one of my favorite classes this year, I’m learn- ing many things in this class,” says Matt Lomshek, Atchinson, Senior. “Business Math is a really good class and I’m having fun while learning for a change,” said Jennifer Burbach, Marceline, Mo. Junior. g Many Juniors enjoy accounting ! class taught by John Flynn because ■ of his unique style of teaching “I g think Mr. Flynn’s class is fun. Al-1 though we have quizzes every week | it’s a good way to teach us,” saidl Kurt Forge, Atchison, Junior. Overall business classes provide much needed skills and provide students with definite knowledge for future use. (Story by Mike Lesher). Scott Munsen works on his Typing during his study hall. You may find many typing stu- dents working on their typing during study hall periods. Tim Van Dyke, Rick Wilbanks, and Zamer Zoughaib listen attentively to Business Law. Business Law is taught first hour by Mr. Flynn. Results of P.E. Program Improvements According to Marty Gonzales, Phys- ical education teacher at Maur Hill, “The thing that mostly improved the Physical Ed. program was the weight room. We have had the weight room about three years now, and I have noticed a big improvement in the strengths of some of the students.” This class is to get you in shape and keep you in shape but along with fitness there has to be a little fun. Marty Gonzales mixes these two together and he comes out with a enjoyable class which also keeps you fit. “I think that P.E. is a fun class but sometimes it gets a little dull, but all in all it helps me keep in shape and with exercising I can get out some of my frustrations,” says Clark Benner a Wes- ton, Mo. Sophomore. In the off seasons of different sports this class will help you stay in shape and be ready for any activity you would like to take part in. (Story by Mike Lesher) Erin Russell and Cyndy Andra fight it out in sophomore P.E. class. P.E. is a fun way to get some exercise. Colin Tuley bench presses in sophomore P.E. Weight-lifting is one of the many physical activities that are presented in the classes each year. 113 Photos by Justin Caraway Journalism Takes Time and Effort Curt Wagner diligently works on the computer. Typing stories on the computer has made meeting deadlines easier. Journalism classes take a lot of determina- tion and patience on both the students and the advisors side. The students are assigned sections to work on and are given deadlines. The deadlines have to be met which means that many people are trying to get stories and cutlines written and typed up on time not to mention getting layouts drawn up and making sure the pictures and stories fit the spaces that were provided for them. Meeting these deadlines is usually a problem for most of the students who would rather sit around for a few weeks until the deadline is coming up. Then these students get to work. They run around trying their hardest to get all their stories, captions and pictures together to turn in on the day of the deadline. Most of the students taking journalism classes thought it would be an easy class, one where you could just sit around, but they found out that it’s not. Working on the Maurite, the Tatler, or the Mount Views takes a lot of time and dedication. It takes a lot of work to get out all the publications and the students and faculty mem- bers working on them should be commended for their dedication and hard work. If something goes wrong in the production the whole staff works together to fix this mistake. Here has to be unity in the class or nothing will ever get done. The staff members of the Maurite, Tatler and Mount Views want to put out publications which you will enjoy and will inform you of school happenings. Kevin Johnson, Atchison, Jr., says he joined the Tatler staff because, “Last year there was an article in the paper about the fall play and the reporter said that there were ten cast members but he only listed nine names. He left me out! I decided after that I should take the class and try to improve it a little. So far it has been going great, I have no complaints.” That is the attitude that is needed in all the students working in the journalism classes. (Story by Dorthy Amerien). Greg Herman checks to make sure the photos for the yearbook are cropped correctly. Being yearbook editor has lots of responsibilities. Steve O’Keefe fills out a receipt for an advertisement. Ads from the local businesses make the Maurite possible. Typing up his story, Kevin Johnson works hard so he can meet the deadline. Typing the story is just one of the many steps in printing the paper. 114 Journalism Photos by Justin Caraway Senior Solutes In Memoriam Brian Jones Well Garie Jean even though you still hang on to the phone, you finally made it girl!

All design and layout for the book was done completely by the Maurite staff members. The Maurite used the magazine format which was started four years ago and featured the simple use of graphics and detailed feature ar- ticles. The primary paper stock was 80 pound bulk Warrenflo enamel. Type faces included: all stan- dard body type was 10 point Century type. Cutline was 8 point. All type was printed black ink. Some reverse was used. All printing was done using offset lithography. All photographs appearing in this book were taken by Maurite staff members. All black and white photo- graphs were printed in the Maurite darkroom on Arista paper 2 and some 3 paper. Ilford HP - 5 black and white, 400 ASA film was used. The cover consisted of full color photographs. The book featured 8 pages of full color photographs. Press - run for the 1985 Maurite was 450 copies. Distribution began in May, 1985. Greg Herman, Atchison, Senior and Maurite editor for 1986, says, “Working on the Maurite was a lot of fun this year. The staff wasn’t familiar with making a yearbook but as the year went along things got better.” “Deadlines were pushy most of the time and some times we weren’t too sure if we were going to get all the pages done on time.” “Everyone worked hard on their sections to meet the deadlines. Many hours were spent at night and on weekends to get the yearbook done.” “We didn’t have very many photographers on the staff this year. Many people on the staff volun- teered their time to take pictures to take the work load off of Justin.” “Overall I think the 1986 Mau- rite is a fine production, and will go over well with the student body. The 1986 Maurite staff deserves congrat- Justin Caraway shows Greg Herman some photographs just printed. These two go over the prints deciding which ones should go in the yearbook. ulations for a good job in producing the yearbook.” Maurite Staff Members: Greg Herman, Editor; Justin Caraway, Chief Photographer; Mike Lasater Angela Domann, Student Life Edi- tors; Beth Sylvester Lyn Grikis, People Seniors Editors; Mike Lutz Todd Scott Molly Klebba, Sports Editors: Daneen Wagner Kim Woghlemuth, Clubs Editors; Dorthy Amerien Mike Lesher; Academics Editors; Steve O’Keefe, Advertising Manager; Mark Gellings, Business Manager; Dan Moriarty; Tim Pau- lich, Photographers; Bill McKernan, Index; Tom Jumps, Advisor. 128 Colophon .
