,--- lC.H.E.E.R.S. Bible study groups became a big hit at O'G in 87-88. C.H.E.E.R.S., or Christ Helps Everyone Enter Remission Sometimes , was a Senior girls' group. With approximately 10 members, C.H.E.E.R.S. met iveekly to discuss such topics as taking risks, individualism and faith. Group leaders Karla Hay and Jennifer Trible planned various activities throughout the year including a bowling match against S.T.U.D.S., an informal prom in the Spring and decoration of the O'Gorman trees at Christmas time. S.T.U.D.S. Students to Understand Daily Scripture involved junior and senior guys. The group began in '87 as seniors Mike Lorang, Steve Honner and Brad and Brent Salem decided that a support group would be helpful at O'G. Their group ofguys met almost every Sunday night. S.T.U.D.S. is a good way for the underclassmen to see how the upperclassmen set a Christian example, said Sophomore Craig Daniels. Some people say God is a crutch. I 've found out that he's a stretcher, said Senior Mike Lorang, l Henk! Honk! or Beep! Beep! In the 0'Gorman parking lot, one could find a full assortment of cars ranging from loud clunkers to speedy sport cars. Included in the vast assortment of .ff -if I motor vehicles is a collertion of various bumper to car windows with suction wp feet became a popular fad. Bumper stickers were big as usual all displaying different personalities of the cars and their owners. MAN IN THE MIRROR became a song of subtle protest in 1988. Michael Jackson 's lyrics contained a powerful message. Here are the words to the song: I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life. lt's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right. . . As I turn up the collar of my favorite winter coat, this wind is blowin' my mind. I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat. Who am I to be blind pretending not to see their needs? A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top and a one man 's soul. They follow each other on the wind ya' know 'cause they've got nowhere to go. That's why I want you to know. I 'm starting with the man in the mirror. I 'm asking him to change his ways. And no message could have been any clearer. If you wanna make the world a better place take a look at yourself and make that change. I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love. lt's time that I realize that there some with no home, not a nickel to Ioan. Could it really be be pretending that they're not alone? A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart and a washed-out dream. They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see, 'cause they've got no place to be. That's why l'm starting with me. l'm starting with the man in the mirror. . . , stickers and rar ornaments. Stuffed animals clinging
