Hours of practice, study reward accomplished students Mind over matter. Maybe this is the method used by people receiving honors and awards. Or maybe they possess characteristics and talents which allow them to gain recognition. Whatever course they follow, it doesn ' t come easily — work is involved. Chosen on the basis of dependa¬ bility, cooperation, leadership and patriotism, Maribeth Patai received the DAR award. Morton ' s 1974-75 Betty Crocker Family Leader of Tomorrow was Cindy Hill. Having an avid interest in home economics along with scoring high on the Betty Crocker test enabled Cindy to win the na¬ tionally recognized award. Pauline Miller and Karl Vanzo were named as Finalists in the 1975 competition for National Merit Scholarships. There were 14,000 Finalists who represent less than the top one half of one percent of all graduating high school students. 1975 Lake Shore Conference All- Star Football squad included Dan Berrisford and Gregg Costa. Pat Hudson, David Jazyk arid Joe Miecznikowski were chosen as honorable mentions on the Lake Shore Conference team. Names to UPl ' s All-State team were Berrisford and Costa with Hud¬ son recieving honorable mention. On the Associated Press squad, Berrisford and Miecznikowski re¬ ceived honorable mention. Albert Walters wrestled his way to a state championship — the first in Morton ' s history. One elected athlete from the football, basketball, swimming and wrestling teams received an award for his performance during the designated season play. 21

Steel mills, oil refineries provide job opportunities Where are there more job op¬ portunities than anyplace in the United States? The Calumet Region. With five large steel mills, (four ranking among the top ten in the nation ' s production), oil refineries and factories, jobs for men and women are accessible. Is it any surprise that Hammond is also con¬ sidered the Crossroads of Ameri¬ ca — with more railroads running through than any other city in the nation? It ' s probably no surprise — it seems that to get across town, beating trains is a greater hassle than fighting traffic. Industry and railroads don ' t com¬ pletely dominate the area though. Lake Michigan ' s shores run north toward Michigan City, with Indiana State Dunes lying in between. When the weather breaks, students prefer the beaches to school. Absences slowly climb with the temperature. Promoting higher education, the Region provides three college ex- tentions. Area students find it easier to save on expenses and still have a choice of going to Purdue Uni¬ versity Calumet Campus, Indiana University Northwest or St. Joseph ' s Calumet Campus in East Chicago. Even with the rise in unemploy¬ ment, the Region remained fortu¬ nate. The jobless rate reported in the Region was slight compared to other industrial cities. Most em¬ ployers resorted to cutting hours, creating four day work weeks, rather than laying off employees.
