The City Without Limits” was the name of the campaign promoting the city of Aberdeen during 1984-85. This promotion was brought about to encourage people and businesses to come to Aber- deen. Many new Aberdeen businesses opened their doors in 1984-85. Shopko. The People’s Bank, The White House Inn, Perkins Restaurant and the People’s Choice Buffet, gave a strong boost to the economy of Aber- deen. Construction was completed on a new Salvation Army building and the Aberdeen Convention Center. Kessler’s Grocery Store also completed the addition and renovation of their building. Three men were killed in a plane crash at the Aberdeen Regional Airport in the early fall. The jet failed to gain enough altitude, struck an embankment and crashed into a ball of fire near Brown County 19. A well known aviator Louis “Watcha” McCollum was killed in the crash which made the national news. To the disappointment of many 18 year olds, the drink- ing age in South Dakota was raised to 19 on June 1, 1984. Two soap opera stars, Laurence Lau and Frank Benard, appeared before excited crowds at the Super City Mall. Lau also made a special and unexpected appearance at Roncalli’s homecoming dance. 1. Shopko drew many shoppers to its establishment. 2. Perkins Restaurant opened to provide more dining in Aberdeen. 3. The White House Inn was added to the list of motels in Aberdeen. 4-5. Construction of the Aberdeen Convention Center came slowly to completion. 3 Trivia becomes fad as Jacksons fade Excitement sizzled throughout the nation as Michael Jackson and his brothers hit the road on the Victory Tour. But soon the Jackson craze died down, and stars like Prince, Bruce Springsteen, Cindy Lauper and Tina Turner started climbing the charts with their music. How long does Boy George say it takes to apply his makeup? This and many other mind racking questions were asked as trivia became a fad in 1984-85. Trivial Pursuit and other quiz games appeared all over. Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters! This phrase and the movie Ghostbusters became a hit during the year. Many borrowed the idea and incorporated it into sayings like Reaganbusters and Fritzbusters during the election campaign. Wendy’s commercials made Clara Pellar and the phrase “Where’s the Beef?” famous to hamburger eat- ers everywhere. Footbag more commonly known as “hacky sack” was played almost anywhere two or more people gathered. This game was played by kicking a small round bag to each other. The Cabbage Patch Doll craze continued in the nation. People waited in line for hours and often fought to get their hands on one Cabbage Patch Kid. Thirty-seven popular British musicians gathered togeth- er to record the single Do They Know It's Christmas?” Band Aid was the name of this effort to help raise money for the famine victims in Ethiopia. 1. Gertie Lindi, Wallis Tommy and Essa Catherine all Cabbage Patch Kids from the Mattern family, pose for the camera. 2. Tim Heinz and Jim Kokales play hacky sack during their free time in the student center. 3. Anne Schmitz. Stewart Bohle, Michelle Rost. Paul Nikolas and Skip Krueger play a game of Trivial Pursuit during their study hall. 4. Clara Pellar asks Where's the Beef? in a Wendy's commercial. 4 Entertainment (Pages by Patty Mattern) 5 jwmpu? Americans focus on election, Olympic Games 1984 was a presidential election year. Democrats nominated Walter Mondale as their presidential candidate. Ronald Reagan was renomi- nated as the Republican candidate, and he went on to win a landslide victory. Although Mondale lost the election, he helped open a door for women in politics. History was made when Mondale chose Geraldine Ferraro as his vice-presidential running mate. (Photos 1 and 2.) The Olympics once again united American citizens as they took pride in hosting the 1984 Summer Games. The Soviet Union as well as other communist countries boycotted the games, nevertheless, the most countries in history participated in the Los Angeles Games. Mary Lou Retton and Carl Lewis became American heroes during the games. (Photo 4.) Much controversy was caused when a team of doctors transplanted a heart from a baboon into the body of a dying baby. This baby known as Baby Fae” died after only weeks with the baboon heart. The reputation of the Miss America Pageant was marred when porno- graphic photographs of the once-reigning Vanessa Williams appeared in Penthouse magazine. Williams was pressured into giving up her crown to first runner-up Suzette Charles after the incident. Leadership in the Soviet Union once again changed hands as Yuri Andropov died after only 15 months as the Soviet leader. He was replaced by Konstatin Chernenko, a top official in the U.S.S.R. but thought to have limited powers. Relations between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. remained quite cool. Presi- dent Reagan’s position of his new Star Wars plan for defense clouded relations. New efforts were being made in January to start arms-control talks in Geneva. (Photo 3.) Indira Ghandi. leader of India, was assasinated by her own guards. Her murder sparked many riots and disorder throughout India. The world sympathetically turned their eyes to the hungry and starv- ing people of Ethiopia as drought and famine swept the country. Aid started pouring in. but for many Ethiopians it was too late. 6 Introduction (Page by Patty Mattern) Roncalli's people are not only a group; we are a community.

Cindy Meier Seniors look at future while giving advice The future was important to the class of 85 as they looked to their goals in life. The seniors felt they were prepared for the future and felt they could give some advice to the underclassmen and upcoming seniors. “Roncalli is a great school that has a lot of pride be- cause each class is small and very close,” said Bob Sahli. Sahli also stated. My advice to underclassmen is whatever you tackle in Roncalli or try to accomplish; don’t be a quitter and give it 100%. My advice to underclassmen is that they make as many friends as they can at Roncalli. They are nice people. said Bob Guhin Beth McAreavey Scott McLeod Dave Mecseji Cindy Meier 1 Dan Cleberg models his flashy lie and plaid pants on baggy clothes day during homecoming ?

It gives you a feeling of belonging, a feel- � ng that you are welcome in it.” Rikki Claymore Juniors: Juniors, like many people, seem to be afraid of what is ahead of them. Things such as college, careers, and plans after graduation are their biggest fears. I am afraid I won't get into any of the colleges I want to attend,” commented Jerri Urbanski. Caroline Bock agrees that college is one of her main worries. Chris Kornmann stated. ‘l don’t know what I want to do in life so I am afraid of going to college and having to make decisions that will affect me the rest of my life.” 1 Chris Kornmann and Stephanie Bode exchange a friendly hug in the hall before they leave for the day 2.

Juniors could be heard saying Super throughout the halls of Roncalli, as it was their favorite saying. Other favorite sayings included Hey Dude. Be Serious, and “Excellent. The nearest party or Keith's house were the favorite entertainment spots for the juniors. Because of our smaller size our class was really close, and our friendships were stronger. Barb O'Keefe Juniors favor pizza, tacos Pizza and tacos topped the list of favorite foods for the juniors. They also ate everything from a Hardee’s Big Roast Beef Sandwich down to McDonald's Chicken McNuggets. Juniors 21 Officer sums class, year The sophomore class had the largest enrollment this year with 92 students. Bill Hauck and Dan Schaub led them as president and vice-president, respectively. “I felt that the sophomore class was a great bunch of people who were all unique, yet a united class. They all got along great and showed many leadership qualities in themselves. It was a fun year with many memories for all of us to remember.” Bill Hauck, sophomore class president 1.

It is now my turn to see what the future has to offer me,” replied Peter Schmidt. This year's sophomores have set many expectations and goals for the next two years as upperclassmen. Many of them replied that they can't wait to use the student center. Others have set goals for better studies, meeting new friends, and having fun. Pat Robinson stated, “In my next two years, I think I'll party it up, pass my classes, meet new people, partici- pate in sports, mature, be myself, but most of all gra- duate.” Trevi Beddow stated, “I think the next two years at RHS are going to be excellent.” Vicky Meier expects to maintain a good grade point average and Christian attitude. Jeff Hurlbert replied, “At present, the quality of our classes are getting better every year and I hope these continue to improve so that education overall improves at RHS.” 24 Sophomores (Pages by Lisa Waltman) v Robbie Johnson Tim Jung Doug Kaiser Dawn Karst Joe Lang Rhonda Larsen Kathleen LaVallie Mike Leach Lora Lieberg Kathy McAreavey Randy McLeod Mary Mecseji Vicky Meier Tom Menzia John Morrow 1.

Sophomores 25 Sophomores: Prince tops list Prince dominates the favorites of the sophomores. This was reflected in their choices of Prince as their idol, Purple Rain as their favorite movie, and “Let’s Go Crazy” as their most liked song and video. While there doesn’t seem to be any pattern to the sophomores’ favorite foods, they listed pizza and tacos as top choices, neither of which can be purchased at their favorite eatery, Burger King. “You are now entering the zit zone” was the sopho- mores’ favorite phrase, followed by “It’s casual.” 1.

Yes. Per- haps it was passing Mr. Lipp's algebra class, learning the difference between a verb and a noun, finding the liver in a cat, understanding the play “Hamlet,” mak- ing friendships among students and teachers, or the ultimate goal-graduating. Mike Rieger reaches his goal: graduation. Roncalli has positive year “This was one of the best school years we’ve had; it was great! Everybody was more positive, everybody was enjoying it, and there was an all-around good atti- tude, commented Mr. Richard Engler, superintendent and principal of the Roncalli School System. Mr. Engler's favorite part of working at Roncalli was getting to know the students and developing friendships with the students. His least favorite part was the finan- cial work, like setting a tuition rate and collecting tuition. Mr. Wallace Bosch was Roncalli’s assistant principal. Mr. Bosch’s duties included all the day-to-day activities of the high school, like taking attendance and doing teacher observations. Making policy was the school board’s main duty. They drew the blueprints of how they wished the school to be run. Then the administration implemented the final decisions. 1.

Needlework is a relaxing hobby enjoyed by Mrs. Brenden and Miss Theisen. 36 Faculty (Pages by Beth McAreavey) Faculty suggests ‘ideal student’ qualities While students may have had their favorite teachers, teachers had their ideas of an “Ideal Student. Lori Tru- deau felt one who is smiling and enthusiastic is the “ideal student.” “The ideal student is always prepared for class, never has to borrow paper or pencil, has assignment com- pleted, and is never absent,” replied Linda Mazzie. Father Mike Kelly had an unique favorite song, “Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Goal Posts of Life.” Phyllis Heier's all time favorite was Precious Love,” while her favorite group was Chicago.” Collette Burchardt preferred to rock with the “Rolling Stones,” and Janelle Klapperich enjoyed the music of “Alabama.” Along with listening to music, teachers also enjoyed mov- ies. Some of the favorites included, Mr. Mom,” “Teach- ers, and “Ghostbusters.” Many teachers said they enjoyed participating in athletics outside of school. Scott Kusler commented basketball was his favorite. Mrs. Burchardt added she liked all sports and collected several items such as coins, homemade dolls, and music boxes. Needlework and arts and crafts were also favorites among the female faculty. Novels, grammar covered Literature, novels, grammar, book reports, writing, and research papers were all part of Roncalli’s English pro- gram. Each year brought about new concepts and the practicing of old ones. English I was taught by two new teachers in Roncalli’s system, Mr. Jim Husted and Mrs. Linda Mazzie. Veteran Mrs. Dianne Brenden also taught an English I class. The course covered literature, vocabulary lessons, parts of speech, diagramming sentences, book reports, writing assignments, Romeo and Juliet,” and reading The Pearl. The sophomore English II class was also taught by Mr. Husted. The year covered the short story unit, modern drama, speeches, mass media, Huckleberry Finn, and Shakespeare. Mrs. Janelle Klapperich. English III instructor, said her class covered creative writing, grammar, literature, re- search papers, and novels. As a class, the students read To Kill a Mockingbird and A Separate Peace. On their own, the students read The Red Badge of Cour- age. Of Mice and Men, and Mv Antonia. English IV, with Mrs. Brenden as instructor, covered English literature, through the Anglo-Saxon period to the 20th century, reading novels such as Sidhartha. and the plays “Hamlet,” and “Pygmalion.” 1.

English 39 Mathematics Computers 40 Mathematics Computers (Pages by Susan Jasinski) Mathematics, computers give career boosts There were five different units of mathematics students could choose to take over their four year period at Roncalli. These included general math, Algebra I and II, geometry, and trigonometry. General math, taught by Mr. Don Haufschild, helped students improve their basic skills such as addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication. Algebra I dealt with variables, functions, inequalities, and problem solving, while Algebra II improved the skills learned in Algebra I with more indepth equations. Alge- bra I was taught by both Mr. Haufschild and Mr. Dan Lipp. Mr. Lipp was also the Algebra II instructor. Geometry taught how to do proofs and how to graph geometric figures. Mrs. Jennifer Mount was the instruc- tor. Senior math, trigonometry, dealt with circular functions and the graphing of trigometric figures. Mr. Lipp was the instructor. This year marked the first year that a computer class was offered as an elective. In the past, students could take the class, but a grade was not given. Computers dealt with tutorials, VisiCal programs, word processing, and writing programs. The class met two days a week. One day dealt with the class as a whole doing problems, test questions, and videos. The second day students worked with the com- puters. Students involved in the mathematics and computers courses said they were taking them because they en- joyed them, and because it would help them in their future careers and in college. 1.

Mathematics Computers 41 Science Science important CD O C (D O co in everyday lives An appreciation of science and how it relates to the world around them was the goal of the teachers in the science department. They all hoped students learned to see science as an important figure in their lives. Leading the science department were Don Haufschild, Dan Lipp, Gary Schuurmans and Colette Burchardt. Mrs. Burchardt taught physical science. She gave stu- dents an introduction to chemistry and physics, and emphasized how science could relate to their everyday lives. Biology I and II was taught by Mr. Schuurmans. Biology I included the studies of zoology, ecology, bo- tony and genetics. Human anatomy and microbiology were covered in Biology II. Remembering mechanics and understanding the rela- tionship and transformation of energy and matter were the goals of Mr. Lipp's physics class. Mr. Lipp also stressed the importance of applying this to nature and its forces. Teaching chemistry was Mr. Haufschild. The year was spent covering the interaction of matter, developing some competency in using the scientific method, be- coming a more informed consumer and preparing for future related courses in chemistry. 1.

Roncalli's outcome reflected the same as South Dakota and the nation by electing Reagan Bush. “With this year being an election year, I think all of the students, grades 9-12, realized how impor- tant it is. not only to make the decisions for them- selves, but to make educational decisions. After all, all but a few students in high school this year will be able to vote in the next presidential election, stated Mr. Brad Tennant, instructor. Sociology, taught by Mr. Mark Murphy, covered gov- ernment, economics, sociology, marriage, family, and a new unit added this year on nuclear war. Mr. Murphy commented, “This material has many exam- ples that occur every day, and their effects hit close to home. I hope each student can gain new insight into the people and the world around us.” American History and the Civil War to the present time were taught by Mr. Tennent, Social Science III teacher. One goal he had for his class was to help students make their own educated decisions, not only for their own good, but for the good of Ameri- ca’s future generations. Mr. Scott Kusler and Mr. Murphy were the Social Science II teachers. The sophomores studied world geography throughout the year. A goal Mr. Murphy had was to challenge each student in class and get them to think about topics in these areas.” To help the students more fully understand our government in the U.S. and help each student to see how they can become a part of it,” were the goals Mr. Tennant hoped to accomplish in Social Science I. The freshmen covered American civics for a semes- ter, U.S. geography for nine weeks, and S.D. History and Government for one quarter. Depression and the addictive personality were two new units added to psychology, instructed by Mrs. Dianne Brenden. Other topics covered included parapsychology, the brain, sleep and dreams, hu- man growth development, personality, intelligence, learning, emotions, personality disturbances, and stress. Mrs. Brenden’s main goals were to increase understanding of themselves and others and to help students become more aware of reasons for their behavior. 44 Social Science (pages by Becky Scott) 1.

It also helps me to grow spiritually, stated Sara Hoeke. Sr. Janet Horst- man. Religion II teacher, hoped that the sophomores would have a better understanding of how to read and draw meaning from the scriptures. Church history provided a base for the freshmen to learn the beliefs of the Catholic Church. Knowing those who came before us, helps us to know how to follow Jesus, emphasized Fr. Greg Tschakert, Religion I teacher. “What happens in class also affects me. I grow in faith through the people I teach in class,” stressed Fr. Darrell Lamberty, Religion III teacher. Personal faith develop- ment and identifying themselves with the scripture pas- sages was an important part of the junior religion class. The concepts taught in religion class can become practical and sensible in the life of the student. Religion becomes a person’s own, not just in religion class, but in the whole life of the student, commented Fr. Mike Kelly Religion IV teacher. “I now have a better under- standing of Catholic beliefs than when I was a freshmen, and the religion classes have helped me grow in my belief, reflected Lisa Waltman. Faith develops through classes Home economics Males dominate department Times are changing. Males dominated the home eco- nomics department. About 25 boys made up most of the Home Economics I, single living and child develop- ment classes. This was the first year for male dominated home economics classes at Roncalli. Home economics students learned about nutrients, food groups, budget and meal planning, sewing and family relations. The students learned how to cook with the different food groups and how to sew a garment. Single living taught the basics of Home Economics I, like sewing, clothing care and selection, ironing clothes, washing clothes, and basic nutrition and cooking. Child development, which Mrs. Jennifer Mount, instruc- tor called “the class of the future,” helped one to under- stand oneself, peer groups, parents, and dating. Also covered were early marriage and family planning, preg- nancy and childbirth, parenting, and the personality of pre-schoolers. 1. Pal Hansen, Darrold Wagner.

The students this year are very talented and put forth a good effort in everything they do, commented Mrs. Heier. — 1. Mrs. Phyllis Heier directs the band to get ready for the upcoming concert. 2.

Mrs. Heier commented, “It was an unusual year because there were more altos than any other section, but sound-wise our choir was very balanced. The choir performed two concerts during the year-a winter concert and a spring concert. Some of the choir members were involved in contest in the spring and All- State Chorus in the fall. 1.

The P.E. classes took the Presidential Physical Fitness Test twice-once at the beginning and then again at the end of the year. It was taken twice in order for the students to see their improvements over the course of the year and to see how they compared with students their age throughout the United States. Kathy Traphagen commented, “It's fun playing volley- ball and racquetball was really fun.” Doug Kaiser also felt he especially enjoyed the racquetball unit. While Randy Zens said, “I like P.E. because we get the chance to do alot of things we probably wouldn’t do without the P.E. classes. Teachers for the P.E. classes are Mrs. Colette Bur- chardt, Mr. Scott Kusler, and student teacher Mr. Mike Miller. 1. Robyn Vincent lets an arrow fly in archery. 2.

Students felt working with materials was better than reading about them in a book in a conventional classroom. It helped students decide about future plans or careers. “You don’t have to sit in a classroom; you get to try things and learn by doing, not listening,” commented Todd Sahli. Brian Daschel added, It helps you in everyday life too, you learn how to fix things like your car and that saves you a lot of money.” Amanda Hamak, the only girl from Roncalli in auto mechanics, said, “A lot of people feel that girls can't do anything like work on cars so you are afraid to try something new, but if it's what you want to do you should ‘go for it’. Roncalli students were involved in the following classes: electronics, sales and marketing, printing, auto me- chanics, building trades, commercial foods, and ma- chine shop. One of the classes at Roncalli that had a lot of activity was art. Paula Guhin, Art I and II teacher, said, “Art allows the students self expression, self fulfillment, and self respect. It’s exciting and enriching.” The major art exhibits this year included a student show at Presentation College and the annual school display which was held in conjunction with the Spring Concert. There was an art exhibit in May which was bigger and included more art than in years past. 1. Todd Sahli adjusts one ot the machines in machine shop. 2.

The amount of time and effort put into teaching amazes me. I enjoy teaching. It is a challenge,” stated Lori Trudeau, office education, Typing I, business law, and bookkeeping instructor. Mrs. Janelle Klapperich taught one section of Typing I. Typing I covered various skills such as speed and accu- racy development, typing and composing business let- ters, tables, manuscripts, and other business forms. “Office ed is interesting because you learn about the different skills that you will need to work out in the business world,” said Jackie Coplan. Office education is a two hour course offered every other year. The course covered speed and accuracy development, legal typing, communication skills, office machine filing, and word processing. It also covered purchasing and receiv- ing inventory and some business math. Renita Vincent replied, It has helped me to discipline myself more. I think before I say things. We do a lot of presentations and class participation which really helps. Various activities were performed inside and outside the business law class. The class visited the county jail, listened to court trials, performed skits on legal agree- ments, had panel discussions, and had various speak- ers throughout the year. The class covered understand- ing and enforcing the laws, making contracts, protect- ing against losses, and understanding business organi- zations. I've learned a lot about the rights of minors. There are many laws in effect that protect minors.” replied Bren- da Kelly. Stewart Bohle thinks the law of being insane should be changed. He said, Even though the person is sick, thet shouldn’t exclude that person from receiv- ing the appropriate punishment for the crime he has committed.” Accounting will help me know how to go about dealing with my financial situations as I become an adult,” replied Chris Rucker. Bookkeeping covered the process of preparing business transactions and financial situa- tions. 1. In business law. Dave Mecseji and Brenda Kelly work diligently on their studies. 2.

This also earned Roncalli the Top-of-the-Class award, an award given to the school in each division with the highest number of points. Mrs. Janelle Klapperich was the teacher advisor for Journalism I and Journalism II. Journalism I was a learning experience. Students learned to write basic news, feature, editorials, and sports stories. As well as learning to write, they shar- pened their skills in 35mm photography darkroom technique, and learned to put a yearbook together. Journalism II was responsible for publishing the year- book, and helped Journalism I with the Cavalcade. 1. Jeanne Kielhold and Julie Pelkofer work on a feature story in Journalism I class. 2.

With the new high school and college requirements, the 1987 and 1988 classes must take two years of a foreign language. Linda Mazzie taught Spanish I and II. The class included speaking, reading and writing the language with some proficiency along with conversational skills of listening. Spanish II stu- dents also studied the Spanish-speaking world and their cultures. Resolved: That the federal government should provide employment for all employable U.S. citizens. This was the topic debate students handled this year. Taught by Jim Husted, his goals were to have students apply skills of critical thinking to every day life, develop effec- tive research skills and to have effective speaking skills. They had in-class debates as well as participating in debate tournaments. As Mr. Husted's first year of teaching, and Mrs. Maz- zie's resuming teaching again, they both were excited and looked forward to a great year. Mazzie taught for eleven years and then took a six-year break. She was glad to be back teaching and felt the classroom exper- ience was exciting and stimulating. Husted felt a little nervous, but mostly challenged by his first year of teaching. 62 Spanish Debate (Pages by Jackie Jund) 1. Steve Siegel attempts to give a speech in Spanish. 2.

Sophomores look forward to their junior year because then they are able to use the student center. Freshmen through seniors can use the computer room during stu- dy halls. Diane Engelhart commented. “Using the student center gives me time away from my classes for a while, and I can spend time with my friends.” Student center and study hall 65 66 Guidance and Library (Pages by Katie Kornmann) Services assist students Mr. Steve LeBrun, guidance counselor, helped students plan for their futures and careers. Mr. LeBrun stated, “Career planning starts with the freshmen. Planning a career and discovering a person’s interests takes time.” Freshmen had a career unit in social science to get acquainted with the guidance library and find out their interests. Sophomores took an interest test to help them start deciding on a career. They were encouraged to serious- ly start thinking about what careers were right for them. Scholarships, contests, A.C.T. and S.A.T. tests were available to the juniors. They also received information on college admission, requirements and financial aid. Decision making and applying for colleges was the main activity for the seniors. They also were given information on financial aid, requirements, and admission to the colleges of their choice. Miss Maureen Theisen, librarian, organized the library and helped students use the reference material. Miss Theisen felt that the majority of the students used the library as a study hall rather than a place to find infor- mation. She stressed the importance of a quiet atmo- sphere but added, It’s also important to feel 'at home’ in the library.” One of her goals for the year was to brighten up the library and make it a more wel- come” place to be in. 1.

Mr. VanCleave is happy with his employment at Roncalli as he says, I like to repair things. Mr. VanCleave has been employed at Roncalli for over a year. Roncalli’s ala carte hot lunch has been a hit with the high school students, but ala carte hasn’t always been on Roncalli's menu, according to Donabelle Backous, cook. Until four years ago, the lunch program consisted of a school menu including the four basic food groups. The students didn’t have a choice as they do with the ala carte. When there was a menu to follow, big roasters were used, and the cooks had to make “lots of every- thing, says Mrs. Backous. The ala carte lunch includes a choice of at least three main dishes, fruits, salads, desserts, chips, and bever- ages. Mrs. Backous and Mrs. Esta Divine have been in charge of Roncalli’s hot lunch program for 18 years and they “love it. L t ( 1. Mr. Van Cleave is Roncalli's maintenance man. 2.

One could find army recruits, cowboys, music idols, and many others. Each day was designated for a certain dress: careers, music, western baggy clothes, and color day. Friday was the time for students to participate in com- petetive and non-competetive games. Following the games the students gathered for mass, celebrated by Fr. Darrell Lamberty. After a lunch catered by Dutch’s, students were brought to trial by the annual Kangaroo Court. The day was ended by a pep assembly for the athletic events that followed. 1.

(Pages by Michelle Rost) Homecoming 75 Work, cramming, relaxing fill teen lives Part time jobs and high school students seemed to go well together. Employers needed the help while the students needed the dough for such things as clothes, shoes, gifts, hunting gear, and entertainment. Students found employment in a variety of different places including fast food establishments, restaurants, clothing stores, beauty shops, nursing homes, ballet classes, gas stations, the YMCA, and many others. Working long, hard hours and then trying to find time to cram in some homework, and finally finding some spare time to relax or for recreation, were all part of a working high school student's life in the fast lane. 76 Jobs (Pages by Susan Jasinski) 1.

The top seven sales people this year included Tom Scheid, Julie Pelkofer. Trevi Beddow, Sandy Schatz, David Moffenbier, Jim Duvall, and Thad Steele. The drive began October 18 and ended November 5. The freshmen class reached their goal of $5,700 which earned them the traditional afternoon off with a pizza- volleyball party. The sophomores and juniors also reached their goals of $7,700 and $4,900 respectively. The senior class took in $3,276. Conducting school affairs and providing activities such as dances, volleyball games, and softball games for the students were the main priorities of the student council. 1.

Both intramural basketball and volleyball were offered to the students. “It gives me a break from homework,” stated Jodi Moinichen. Mr. Steve LeBrun, intramural coordinator, found a lot of advantages in having intramural sports. “Intramurals were a great way to stay active. It gave students a chance to socialize apart from the formalized school setting,” said LeBrun. 80 Intramurals (Pages by Katie Kornmann) 1. Two senior teams battle it out in a game of volleyball. 2.

The NET retreat team from St. Paul, Minnesota returned to lead the retreats for the freshmen and sophomores. The junior and senior class retreats were held in the spring. Richmond Youth Camp was the site of the weekend retreat held for any Roncalli students. Retreaters spent the weekend having fun, praying together, singing, sharing feelings and ideas in small groups, and listening to talks given by the team. Team members shared stories about how Jesus became a part of their lives. Icy roads and bad weather brought the weekend to an early close, but retreaters came out of the weekend with new friends and a better, understanding of their faith. Sr. Janet Horstman, organizer of the weekend, thought that many good things came out of the weekend. ‘‘The people who made the retreat became more open, some even expressing that they needed prayer in their lives, and they made Christ a bigger part of their lives,” commented Sr. Janet. Every Friday morning all school mass was celebrated. I liked having mass because it gave the Roncalli commu- nity a chance to come together and participate in the mass. One thing that made the mass so special was the music and the singing,” commented Donna Menzia. Students put a great amount of time and effort into planning for and participating in the various masses throughout the year. Twelve new Eucharistic Ministers were chosen to help distribute communion. They spent a day of retreat together to prepare to serve the Lord in this way. A special workshop was offered for those students and faculty members who wanted to be lec- tors for the masses. Many people got themselves out of bed earlier every Thursday morning to practice for liturgical singers at 7:30 a.m. Music was chosen to coincide with the theme of the mass and the liturgical singers led the rest of the community in song. 1.

The three main ways the committee planned to deepen others faith was through the community, retreats, ser- vice to others, and the gospel message. Many activities proved that the committee was willing to work. Among these activities were the bridge building program, in which everyone drew a name out of a box and gave small gifts to that person anonymously throughout the four weeks of advent. Also planned by the committee was the Christian Living Retreat, which was held at the Richmond Lake Youth Camp, the home- coming non-competitive games, class retreats, and Roncalli's Mardi Gras, which was a night of celebration and masquerade before Ash Wednesday, the start of the Lenten Season. Activities designed for members only included, retreat day at Richmond Lake Youth Camp, the Halloween hayride, and the Thanksgiving dinner for the faculty. Once every two weeks the committee got together to discuss upcoming projects, engage in sharing and pray- er, and play fun games. 1.

The students set up their own compan- ies, produced a product and then sold it. At the end of the sales if enough products were sold, they would make a profit. After the term of 15 weeks they liquidat- ed the company.

We go to places like the Harmony Home and try to make the people feel like they belong.” said Caroline Bock. Key Club secretary. Three themes were chosen for Key Club. The special theme was “Right To Life. Key Club members promot- ed Right to Life in various ways throughout the school. The second theme was “Vocational Guidance, direct- ed by Steve LeBrun, guidance counselor. The goal was to help students in some way with guidance for career and college choices. School Service Project” was the third theme. Key Club helped the school by doing odd jobs around the build- ing that had to be done. The service project was run by Don Haufschild, advisor. Members of Key Club did many other activities too. Some of these included visiting the Harmony Home, working at the church bazaars, helping at the winter ball, and sponsoring a pancake breakfast.

At the State One Act Play Contest in Vermillion, Roncalli received an “excellent” rating overall, Meredith Morgans received best actress award, and Dan Cleberg received a best actor award. Regional competitions in Watertown were just as re- warding for the cast. The cast received a “superior overall, which enabled them to go to the state competi- tions. Meredith Morgans received best actress, Katie Martinmaas received best supporting actress and Chad Kraft brought home the best supporting actor award. The cast performed a one act from “Voices in the High School. Earlier in the year, Tender Lies was performed. Mr. Jim Husted, director of both plays, said he chose to do those plays because they were not typical high school plays. Husted also said the plays both had very chal- lenging characters, and he said he likes to see high schools do difficult work.

Husted added that the teams won more than they lost. The debate team did not qualify for the state competition. On a brighter note, Husted added, We have a young team, and they competed against older, more experienced debaters, making the competition more difficult. Husted looks forward to having the whole team back next season. Debaters included Mike Harlow, John Renelt, Dan Schaub, Pat Hansen, Steve Siegel, Joe Schmitz, and Phil Marnette.

Perhaps that is because sports means a number of opposite things. It is as tangible as a basketball and as intangi- ble as an empty football field after a victo- ry. It is competition, composure, memory, and anticipation. Sports isn't all things to all people. But life would hardly be the same without it; Roncalli would hardly be the same.

We only had three returning starters,” commented Coach Mark Murphy as the season opened. Coach Murphy’s goals were to be the best possible football team, strive for the best, and finish high in the Northeast Conference. The team ended the season with a 5-4 record. Even though we were usually out-weighed in our games, our desire made up for our weight,” replied Rich Dix. Dave Mecseji stated, “We are a better team than our record indicates. The year was fun; we all had a good time, along with having a good attitude toward foot- ball.” Coach Murphy commented on next year’s season, “We should be very competitive. The playoff structure changes next year, and we will take four teams into the playoffs. Football (Pages by Lisa Waltman) 95 Underrated team surprises opponents Although the football team came up short in some early games of the season, they proved at the end that they were a good team. Roncalli surprised many people in their season opener against Central. “It was a special and real unexpected type of performance against Central by our ball club, and the players showed a great deal of character,” emphasized Coach Mark Murphy. I thought we did a good job this year, we were a really underrated team. We showed in the game against Cen- tral that we were a good team,” commented Ben Zerr on the Cavalier's season. “We practiced hard all year, we had a lot of close games, but we let a few slip out of our hands, stated Kent Rucker. One experience that stuck out in Rucker’s mind about the season was choking it on the one yard line against Aberdeen Central.” 96 Football (Pages by Patty Mattern) 1.

They tied with Redfield for championship two consecutive years. Coach Tom Murphy commented the team improved offensively, shooting was better, and they decreased their turnovers from previous years. Janelle Dabbert mentioned her most memorable game was, beating Groton in their gym, we have always had trouble in their gym, and we had good support from our fans. Also both the “B” team and varsity won for the first time in the Groton gym.” Renita Vincent led the team throughout the season in rebounds, scoring, and free throw average. 1.

We had a season that will go down in the record books.” Coach Scott Kusler Cavaliers claim NEC title With an unblemished conference record, and an 18-2 overall record Coach Scott Kusler knew the 1984-85 Roncalli Cavaliers accomplished all that he had expect- ed. “We had a very special season. At the outset we set goals for the season, and we seemed to accomplish them one by one. Kusler felt the Cavaliers were feeling pretty confident heading into sectional play. He commented “The Wa- tertown victory really helped us. Watertown was playing good ball when we went down for the game. We came out with an eleven point win; we knew we could beat the ESD schools. Roncalli defeated Pierre in the first round of the section- al tournament, then dropped a disappointing four point loss to cross town rival Aberdeen Central. Basketball 103 Seniors Lead Squad This year the Cavalier basketball team had eleven sen- iors. Coach Scott Kusler looked to the seniors for lead- ership. He said “The seniors carried us; not one person could be singled out. We looked to Rich Dix to control the team, the forwards were needed for rebounding, and our two centers, Steve Scott and Steve Gohn, were expected to intimidate in the middle.” Coach Kusler felt good about the 1984-85 season. He believes Roncalli has a great future ahead also. “I be- lieve next year will be a carryover of this year. We had only one junior starter, but the rest of that class should be hungry and want to play basketball. Next year's junior class will really contribute to our ball club. They will add strength and a lot of quickness. I look to finish high in the NEC, and really challenge for the title.” 1. Rich Dix lights oil the defense lor two points. 2.

But from Roncalli’s point of view, I really believe we're beginning to overtake the 'close but not quite’ attitude of qualifying for state.” Head Coach Brad Tennant Grapplers more experiencea We were probably the most experienced team Ron- calli has had in several years, and we had only tour seniors, said head wrestling coach Brad Tennant about the 1984-85 Cavalier wrestling team. The Cavaliers were 4-12-1 on the season. The wrestling team had undefeated wrestlers in the Clark and Ipswich tournaments and had place winners in the NEC, Ellen- dale, and sectional tournaments. Coach Tennant stated, The biggest thrill of the season for me was the Ipswich tournament, where we tied for third. Tying with my home school of Gettysburg will be a feeling that I'll enjoy for some time.” Ben Zerr, senior wrestler, felt placing fourth in the NEC was his biggest thrill. Tennant summed up the year, Progress: our season was an improvement over the last few years. I knew we had the talent and the ability to win, but trying to con- vince the individuals that they were winners was the difficult part. 1. Fred Sahli works on an escape from a Redfield Pheasant. 2.

For Roncalli to build a good program, we’re going to have to attract at least a half-dozen athletes from each grade level. The past two years have been excellent. The real test will be the 1985-86 freshmen class.’’ As past years have shown, Coach Tennant really looked to upperclassmen for leadership needed on a wrestling team. He commented, “I expect and favor leadership from both juniors and seniors. Some said more than I should, but I didn’t expect my attitude to change. This year’s seniors started out as the leaders we needed to get through the season successfully.’’ 1. Dave Mecseji receives his second place medal at the sectional tournament. 2.

Cheerleaders also planned and prepared a beginning-of-season dinner for At most practices, cheerleaders devoted time to learr new cheers. While the majority of the cheers werr passed down from past cheerleaders, cheerleaders alst attended clinics at Northern State College to improv cheers. 1 BOVS’ BASKETBALL CHEERLEADERS (VARSITY): Renee Peter- son.

Many decisions ahead As the 1984-85 school year drew to a close, many changes took place around Roncalli High School. The seniors left the Roncalli family and entered the world outside of Roncalli's protective doors. The juniors prepared themselves for their last year at Roncalli, and the many rough decisions ahead. The underclassmen were ready to assume the leadership positions expect- ed of juniors and seniors. While everybody was ready for new beginnings, the end was frightening. Our paths lead us on! 1.

Conclusion (Page by Scott Hoeke) 115 Deadlines bring frustrations Hardwork, dedication, and responsibility: words Journalism II students used to describe their year. The yearbook staff had some rough times meeting deadlines which always meant frustration. Lisa Wait- man commented, The class was challenging, unex- pected, and at times difficult, but the joy of knowing I helped put our Lance together was rewarding. Very generally speaking, the yearbook production went smoothly, added Mrs. Janelle Klapperich, yearbook advisor. There were no major foul ups- bleeps and blunders, only lots of small ones, but they seem to be inevitable. JOURNALISM II STAFF: FRONT ROW: Sue Jasinski, Jackie Jund, and Lisa Waltman.
