Rockin’ and Romancin’ in the Roost For many years Maur Hill and Mount students have enjoyed their Roost and the tradition has kept on in 1986 as well. “I have enjoyed Tun- ing the Roost,” said Mrs. Donna Wil- ming, Roost Manager. Mrs. Wilming who has run the Roost for six years has done a fine job. All the students thank her for her work in the Roost. Many students come to the Roost to see their girl or boy friends, to listen to music and to relax. “I like coming down here on Wednesdays to relax and talk to the girls” said Pat Quinn, Chicago, 111., senior. The fu- ture of the Roost appears to be sta- ble. Each year it gets more business as noted by Mrs. Wilming. It appears today’s Roost is dif- ferent than yesterday’s. The music is different the setting is different and the people are different. How- ever, a few things about the Roost that will never change or be forgot- ten are the friendships that were made and the young loves that may have come and gone. These events in our lives that took place in the Roost make it special and give it an un- changeable appeal to past, present and future students. Heather O’Herin and Matt Simpson discuss Homecoming plans, while relaxing at the Roost. Many plans have been made at the Roost. “Does that camera have fdm in it? Michelle Scott and Karen Handke enjoy their free time in the Roost. Tim Giles sizes up the situation. Tim has had many a fun night at the Roost. Roost 13 Is this girl for real?” Jeff Growney and Kurt Forge ponder as they enjoy their Roost night.

Teamwork makes success Some Maur Hill students played soccer in two different leag- ues this year on the River Bend team. The team competes in the Flint Hill League with teams from Ft. Leavenworth and Topeka. The team also plays Wednesday evenings in an indoor league in John- son county. All of the River Bend opponents are non-school teams also. “Many people think that the soccer team is just for foreign stu- dents, and Americans shouldn’t go out for it. This is not true. The team is for anyone who likes to play soccer, or is interested in learning it. By playing with people better than me, I learned a lot over the course of the season, said Dan Pombo, St. Joseph, Mo., junior. Fr. Martin Taylor, O.S.B., with Lee Gomez are in charge of the team.

She was one of the queen candidates. On a beautiful day in the third week of October, Maur Hill held it’s annual fall Homecoming. The Jr. Ravens were in fantastic form tram- pling over their Big 7 rivals, the Hiawatha Redskins, 22-7. During halftime, Kelli Pick- man, Atchison senior, was crowned Homecoming queen by popular ac- clamation. She was escorted by her father William Pickman. As the lights dimmed at Bened- ictine’s Riccardi Center many Maur Hill and Academy students took to the dance floor. The music was pro- vided by the band “Changes” from Kansas City. “I thought everything went well. I had a good dinner and a great time at the dance,” said Kurt Forge, Atchison senior. “The entire day was fun. First I went to the football game and then to the dance. It was the best Home- coming dance since I have been here,” said Brock Purslow, Atchison junior. Kelli Pickman shows her winning smile.
