Toledo Makes For Fun Time what ' s happening in downtown Toledo that ' s so special? First of all, all those new modern buildings are all part of Toledo ' s revitilazation plan toniake downtown a more attractive place. It ' s certainly working and Notre Dame girls are taking advantage of all the great sights. On some Friday evenings Notre Dame girls could be found, Partying in the Park, at Promenade ' s Party in the Park. This was another way to help people of Toledo get together and have a great time. Others were spotted taking in all the construction and sightseeing on a Sunday afternoon. What ever the reason for these adventurous girl ' s being there, they all could agree on one thing. Stacey Sell, a freshmen, says it all, I think the renovation downtown has really improved the appear- ance and will attract a lot more people. Even though downtown is truly fantastic, it ' s not the only place in which fun finding Notre Dame girls spend their time. Many of Toledo ' s Metroparks are a popular place for jogging off those extra pounds or gaining more by having a picnic. Wait, there ' s more! If one ' s not the outdoors type one can take a cultural trip through the famous Toledo Museum of Art. Such a trip would be truly inspiring to all. Now, if that ' s not enough one can always hit the theaters, sit, relax, and watch one ' s favorite movie star. If any of these do not fit one ' s own un ique personality, stop- ping at McDonald ' s with friends is sure to please. However Notre Dame girls choose to spend their free time, Toledo is the place to do it. Eileen Lawrence Freshmen, Stacey Sell and Dina Ferens, enjoy sightseeing and walking downtown. Stacey laughs at Dina ' s joke while reading the Port of Toledo sign. The two had heard about the excitement downtown and wanted to see it. What are juniors, Lisa Roberts, Margaret Blood, and Mary Gradel, doing on the edge of the Maumee River? Do they see gorgeous men in the distance? Are they contemplating jumping? No, they are just watching the boats. 10 Toledo Alive

Inevitable Question Johnny or Franny? Ever been asked the question Johnny or Franny? Every year the statistics change, but the question prevails at Notre Dame. The question, more times than not, divides many friends, especially during the annual football game. On October 15, 1983, when St. John ' s and St. Francis ' teams locked heads, NDA girls were there to cheer on their favorite team. Even though St. Francis won, the question remains unanswered. When asked the question, Why am I a Johnny or a Franny? Dawn LaFond replied I am a Johnny simply because Johnnies know how to have a great time! And also, because the guys are super nice and friendly. But Cheryl Augustiniak feels quite differently about Johnnies, I am a Franny, because most of the guys I know go to St. Francis. Also, because the few Johnnies I know are jerks! NDA girls seem to feel that their favorite boys school is the best. And some, like Lori Mager, enjoy both equally I am both, because I am a very social person and that way I get the best of both worlds. No matter what one ' s preference is, ND girls will always stand up for both schools equally. As the saying goes Behind every strong man there is a strong woman. But the inevitable ques- tion, Johnny or Franny? will never truly be answered. Mia Cellura The Knights of St. Francis proved to be more than a threat to all football teams they encountered, the Johnnies were no exception. St. Francis football team, Doug Regan, ' 84; Ted Tehensky, ' 85 and Rob Firucki, ' 84; in a pre-game huddle, psyche thems elves up for another uncontested victory. They creamed the Titans, 27-0. This huddle, like others, has brought an inspiration to the players, which sustained them throughout the winning ' 83 season. What are these four juniors searching for . . . ? Why the ball of course. But Audi Del Verne, Wendy O ' Brien, Amy Frogameni, and Sue Paw- lecki aren ' t quite sure where the ball is or where it going.
