Saint Alphonsus High School 7265 Calhoun Ave. Dearborn, Michigan Vol. II 41 low � Tia£3W naan Momentum of unleashed spirit arrow gives new life to Arrow beat loE3L arrow loE3L We heard it rumble in August. But its natal strength was weak. Muffled. It moved through the musts' halls as desks were dusted and books re- shelved. But is was restless here, still longing for the sun and the beach and the “do your own thing” days of summer. It struggled for life at Anthony Park as gndmen quickly learned to trade cutoffs and sideburns for spikes, shoulder pads, and almost” crew- cuts. But it was still pre-occupied with the good life—picnics, jobs, travels, driver’s ed. new faces, and no books! On September 3 though, the (fie was cast and it was once more shuffled off to school, scheduled, alphabetized, given a homeroom, a locker and a lunch period. Still, it was in need of something That something was in the air . . . It rumbled again, louder this time, filled the halls, rumbled, rambled . and broke loose on September 6. as Jeff Crause hit the w ater. The Arrow beat’ was born anew. arram m TABLE OF COHTESTS Introduction ......................................... p. 2 Faculty and Academics ..................................p. 8 Athletics ..............................................p. 26 Seniors .............................................. p. 44 Student Life ...........................................p. 64 Organizations ..........................................p. 80 Underclassmen .................................... p. 96 Patrons ................................................p. 116 2 . M It was at once a strong, healthy beat. It readily united in times of sorrow. It worshipped . . . It clothed itself in velvet and silk and journeyed to Camelot. It clothed itself in gloves and caps and traveled to Hemlock Park. It faithfully walked the halls each day, hugged the right side and went around hall guards. It intensified when the Arrows met de- Porres and captured that coveted football victory. It beat a little faster during 4A on Oc- tober 21, as Seniors got their caps and gowns. It nearly burst on November 10 — a 27 to 19 victory! On November 15, it skipped a beat as report cards came home with parents. It gained state repute from our Varsity cheerleaders at Northwood Institute. It knew reverence on November 22, as the city and nation joined Saint Alphonsus in a tribute to John Kennedy. Wet, but very much alive, the ‘Arrow beat’ cheered at the Thanksgiving Day parade. “Those Were the Days” when the ‘Ar- row beat' pulsated to the heavy sound of the Lower Deck. Two days later, it helped smash Aquinas as cagers piled up their two- points. It rang out as carollers braved Decem- ber rains. The end of January found it weary — buried under final exams. Weary. Yes. But. never broken or de- feated. 5 The ‘Arrow beat’ which had be- gun so weakly in September, con- tinued to gain strength as students together dealt with the good times and the bad times of the year. And together” is the cause be- hind the ‘beat.’ It is the very rea- son behind the ‘beat.’ Because of a team, a class, a club, a faculty and a student body, the ‘beat’ became powerful, mov- ing, dynamic. Games were played. Cheers were led. Victory parties, debates, book reports, conferences, shared- time, Homecoming, feast days, mardi gras, dances, scholarship tests, Grapevine — all attested to the life and pulse of the ‘Arrow beat.’ Some felt the ‘beat’ strongest in class, as minds were challenged and thought stimulated. And, the classroom is a good place from which to follow the ‘beat.’ The teacher, the textbook, the student. A basic working unit. Contributing to the ‘beat.’ The tiny but all-important team in the all important world of . . . 7 dUTflUJ asm 8 Arrows pursue academic skills Armed with slide rule, name tag, sewing guide, and language tape, an Arrow comes to school well-prepared to unearth the unknown. Armed with lesson plans, patience, and sample tax forms, a teacher comes to school to teach, to counsel, to share knowledge. Hidden in an unfactored equation, or in the footnote of a language text, an Arrow finds knowledge. But he must go elsewhere to find wisdom; to the exercise of sportsmanship in ath- letics, to the responsibilities of on the Student Council, to the value of friend- ship when the school day is over. Successful in the academic world, an Arrow gives life to the beat” which will only be as strong as he is wise. anauj loEiL loESL arrow Faculty and Academics 9 Hub of school activities; °ffi ce proves perpetual motion; Principal removes divider In late August, changes were taking place in the high school office. A blue room divider was carried off and, hopefully, much of the intrigue surrounding the office of principal. Sister Agnes Charles hoped that anyone walking past the office could glance in and see her working there. But, Sister likes to be where the action is and so you can also find her at a 7:30 a.m. Student Council meeting, visiting classes or cheering in the rain at a foot- ball game. She pops up at committee meetings in the annex, send- ing tired Arrows home to rest. In between “extra-administrative” duties, she is also a coun- selor and administrative wiz. Her office light is burning at 7:00 a.m. as Student Council members serenade her to come and open the door” and at 7:00 p.m. after even the janitors have gone home. Her assistants include Mrs. McGuire, school secretary. Sister Rose Margaret, assistant principal and Sister Clare Charles. The blue room divider is long gone and with it much of the mystery of the office. But now, in the boundless, tireless energy of our administrators, the mystery remains. 10 (Opposite above) At the first assembly of the school year, Sister Agnes Charles presents Karen Cardelli with a rulebook, the symbol of her Student Council office.

Linguists go international visit Chaucer; Caesar This year a hard-working Arrow could set out to tackle an exciting foreign language like Spanish, French or Latin, or he could devote himself entirely to a mysterious tongue called English. In mid-September his journey to some faraway destination began. If it was France, Monsieur Headley was his guide. If his goal was Spain, Seniorita Morales led the way. The 108 Time Machine left him on the Appian Way. A bi-linguist could mix his abilities and take the “Grand Tour” through French, Spanish. Latin and English in ten short months! But, if he’d rather “see America first”, he could step right into 204 and Sister Marie Annette’s English class. All-American revival sessions are held for anyone lucky enough to stumble in. These sessions are as traditional as apple pie and baseball. “Ambiguous words” and “key concepts” are tossed back and forth as precises are carefully written and students discover that in America, as in Ancient Greece, “man is man”!

The Math Department is probing for the notorious variable, Solution Set. As the search unfolds, we find our department preparing studies of polygons and cosine functions, searching for the criminal. First, the students try to out-maneuver the rogue by solving their equations and graphing their points. But, the “mini”-detectives must call in the Arrow Board of Educators. Only they are able to end the search. This year the A.B.E. enjoys the addition of Sisters Rose Margaret and Martin Therese and Mr. Konieczny. With the students, they seal off all escape routes. The Solution Set is trapped and must surrender its ordered pairs, LCM’s and para- meters. Then, with a sigh of relief, math students can determine theta, factor their binomials and close their “open sentences”. 15 (Right) A way, for a moment, from the enthusiasm of budding scientists, Sister Anne Regina and Mr. Fleezanis meet to digress on the “latest in frog disec- tion and blood analysis.

To balance an equation, conserve energy or repair a bean- bag frog mascot, he simply dips into his caul- dron of science secrets to the amazement of both his “junior alchemists” and his shaky Biology “surgeons”. But, there’s still more to come from the abyss of the labs, where Sister Anne Regina shouts sympathetically, “There’s only one frog per student, so do a good job.” At the same time, right next door, Mr. Konieczny puzzles his physical science with questions like, “Why hasn’t Niagara Falls run out of water?” Then comt the psychic senior physicists who hit Mr. Kieffer with zingers like, “What’s E=mc- in MPH?” Soon, armed with their patched aprons, polka-dot arms and poignant questions, Arrows will go out to revolutionize the science world.

No more delight in stories of bleed- ing martyrs and starving saints. No more unquestioning recita- tion of the Baltimore Catechism. In the words of Pope John, religion teachers needed to “open the windows and let the fresh air come in”. Gusts of that fresh air have given new life to religion classes at Saint Al’s. A visit to Mr. Zielinski’s “Awareness Class” will find the Juniors, wide awake even at the ungodly hour, being ex- posed to contemporary views on philosophy, pigtails and Simon and Gar. Freshmen are delighted to receive the chal- lenge of modern day Christian action. They express their faith and good intentions in magazine-torn collages and food baskets packed with peaches, oatmeal and avocados. Sophomores, led by Sister Cabrini and Sister Celeste, find stimulating dialogues and burlap banners incentives for their young Christian lives. And Seniors find their religion classes invaluably current. Com- parative religion and world problems challenge half of the class while Father McMurtrie holds the other half spellbound with a study of trends in modern Christian marriages. In all of the religion classes, reading and brainstorming are heavily emphasized from which workable, livable con- clusions arise. It is rather obvious that when the “windows were opened” at Saint Alphonsus. open-mindedness, Christian concern and contemporary expression all came in with the “fresh air” 22 (Far left) Mr. Tallieu urges band members to “dress right” in a morning marching practice.

Arts attract ebullient tyros: elective stock skyrockets Inside the complex of the Saint Alphonsus trust company, i te board of directors of the creative arts department was called to- gether to deliver a periodic progress report. The meeting came to order. Sister Margaret Francis was the first to speak. Her choral division has employed a record number of vocalists. Their talent and enthusiasm have added a colorful flair to school musical pro- grams. Sister’s division pays its dividend each spring with the per- formance of its operetta, this year, a magical fantasy, Cinderella. Mr. Jones and Mrs. Shaver took the floor next. They reported that their art students were working industriously with a real love for their diversified media. Their products include woven articles, candles and first-attempt paintings. Mr. Tallieu was the final speaker. Band employees, he said, were limited in number, but quality was at a premium. A-l in dependability, the band’s versatility is seen at pep rallies, parades and concerts. Finally, their dividend, too, comes through the annual operetta. With choral, art and band at their present levels, the directors determined that stock in these electives was a very worthwhile in- vestment, paying high dividends in self-expression. 23 24 Electives offer Arrows “Zero hour” is quite an interesting time at Saint Alphonsus. It offers students a wide variety of elective choices, such as psychology, clothing, journalism or speech. Psychology is a new addition to the “zero hour” choices. Mr. Fleezanis is only too willing to help his psych students find and explore their id, which sometimes proves to be more elusive than amino acids or centripetal force. Right across the hall. Sister John Martin directs students in the domestic arts. Every day her girls pin, cut and sew, plan menus and scrutinize furnishings. Mean- while, up in 104, newspapers rustle as budding journalists scan last night’s “Free Press” for bylines and cutlines. Finally, some students dabble in the art of elocution. Cultural appreciation introduces Freshmen to speech. They practice eye contact and voice control as they talk about inflation or Mother Goose. Advanced speech stu- dents arc absorbed in debate about compulsory federal service. These electives make “zero hour” a time of profit for students who want just a “little bit more.” (Opposite, above) “Professor” Fleezanis and his assistant, Guy Bala, listen to the problems of Boh Jackson in the psych lab.

But for the hard-luck Arrows, it produced only two victories. The Arrows started out in good fashion. They had an entirely new coaching staff and a large turnout of eager hopefuls. And for the first time in a long while, the winning spirit was there. The Arrows did lack experience, though. With only four seniors on the team, there were a lot of positions manned by underclassmen. The season started like a nightmare. After four straight losses by large margins, the Arrows were nearly at rock-bottom with the Homecoming game fast approaching. To the surprise and delight of all Arrow rooters, the team destroyed the Eagles. Losing two more, the Arrows approached the sea- son finale against a tough St. Hedwig team. For the first time all year, the Arrows “put it all to- gether” and stomped the Knights 27-19. The football team’s record was a little short of spectacular. The players were small and inexper- ienced. But they were real fighters, even when the cause seemed hopeless. 29 (Opposite right) John Salveta and an unidentified Arrow wres- tle an Aquinas runner to the ground.

Arrows achieve winning year by hustle, hard work The St. Alphonsus Varsity Basketball team came through with another winning season. Guided by the 1968 Coach of the Year. Mr. Michael Guza, and led on the floor by All-Catholic, All-City and All-State eager Joe Pruchnik, the Arrows finished the season with a 13-7 record. The Arrows finished third in the A-West division be- hind DePorres and St. Hcdwig. They ran up a winning streak of six games, but, as in years past, they could just never seem to beat the always powerful DePorres Eagles. But, most discouraging, was that last second shot by a Cabrini player which beat the Arrows and cost them second place and a spot in the Catholic league playoffs. In the state tournament, the team was hoping to go a long way. In their first game, the Arrows destroyed Our Lady of Sorrows 59-50. The next game brought them against a Lowrey team with a 3-10 record. Perhaps it was over-confidence, or maybe it was an inspired Lowrey team, nevertheless, the Arrows finished the season on a sour note with a 73-50 loss.

Soph JV holds its own; Attracts fans; victories Junior Varsity basketball is typically the forgotten game before the all-important Varsity contest. Wear- ing discarded Varsity uniforms and lacking student support, their games go unnoticed. But. this year they received considerable support and showed their ap- preciation by scoring some impressive victories. Led by high scoring forward George Bracken, the Arrows gave every opponent a real battle. Al- though their 8-9 record was a little short of spectacu- lar, it was a big improvement over the last three years. Hampered by the fact that no Juniors or Freshmen were allowed on the team, they turned in a very credible job. The Arrows suffered the problems of all Junior Varsities: inconsistency. The team would win a game with a display of excellent basketball and. then the next week, beat themselves with their own mistakes. Guided by Coach Bannon, the players were well instructed in the basic skills that will benefit them in their quest for a place on the Varsity squad.

Arrows splash to best year with 5-2 record With only two varsity lettermen not re- turning from the ’68 team, all the swimmers were striving for the league championship. Unfortunately a strong Sacred Heart team and a bad meet with Gallagher forced the Arrows to settle for third place and a 5-2 record. St. Marys, St. Pauls, St. Ritas, Salesian, and Mackenzie all fell before the mighty Arrows. Sacred Heart and Bishop Gallagher managed to sneak by the St. Al’s attack, but with a little luck the meets would have been much closer, probably Arrow victories. The diving team of Jeff Crause and John MacDonald finished 1-2 respectively all sea- son. The medley relay team was undefeated all season. Dave Koch was unbeatable in the 100 and 200 yard freestyle all season. And to top it all off Jeff Crause and the relay team qualified in the city meet. 36 VARSITY SWIMMING RECORD St. Al’s Opponents 59 Salesian 40 73 St. Rita 26 44 Sacred Heart 61 62 St. Paul 41 36 Bishop Gallagher 60 64 St. Mary 40 60 Mackenzie 45 Season Record 5-2 The '68-69 Varsity Swimming Team: (Standing) Peter Tucker, Jeff Berger, Dave Koch, Gary Pazur, Tom Leskie, Chuck Sudekum, Ray DeCeco, Coach Headley.

Led by sharp-shooter Helen Wisocki, the Arrowettes captured the league cham- pionship. Under the fine coaching of Miss Bernie Rygiel, the Arrowettes destroyed all their opponents. The girls were impressive in all their victories and the margins of victory showed that capturing the league crown was more than just a “lucky” break. The replacements for the graduating Seniors will have to come from the Junior Varsity which was just as im- pressive as the Varsity. The JV captured their league crown, were runners-up in the tournament and won the city title by beating the girls of St. Rita. Already filled with the winning spirit, the JV players should be the Varsity champions of tomorrow.

Student body support is often almost non-existent. But the men who participate in these sports work hard. They take time out from their studies, jobs and “creative rest periods ' to prove their athletic abilities. They spend up to four hours jogging and sprinting. They pitch and they fetch flies. Most im- portantly, they take pride in their accomplish- ments. No matter how loudly they complain about running, Saturday practices and blis- tered feet, they run their hardest and field their best. They, too, have proven their love of sports. Larry Bobowski shows the true form of an outfielder. Varsity Softball Team '67-68: (Kneeling) Kathy English, Val Evers, Chris Bobowski.

Pre- cious memories start coming back to him then, incidents that really made” high school. Maybe it was his first Homecoming dance and his first date. Or the first point he scored in a high school track meet. Or. the term paper which he frantically typed the morning it was due. Perhaps he remembers the beginning of friendships that are now an inseparable part of his life. For four years, he’s given strength to the “beat”. And when his last picture is written out, June 5 is no longer so far away, and that same “Arrow beat” beckons him to “walk on”. arrauu loESL Seniors 45 James Lachlan McDonald President Marsha Ann Jabour Vice-President Seniors take last look back; resolve to never walk alone “When I was a child, I spoke as a child,” and did all of the things that a child would do. I brought flowers to Sister Kathleen Ann and I “dusted the clouds for Christmas”. I executed my lessons in fundamentals under the kind scrutiny of Miss Campbell. I was tucked away in the high school basement for one year and then I left a very small part of my child- hood behind as I began to change classes. A year later, I watched the walls of my sixth grade classroom crack and begin to separate from the over- head construction. Seventh and eighth grade were exciting, full of surprises, and passed all too quickly. One night I stole into a nursery to get enough leaves for Sister Maurice Marie’s science assignment, I knelt on my Progress in Arithmetic book one very confused November day to pray for a man initialled JFK. My class moved into the new wing in spring and soon, I had achieved what seemed at that time to be the most envious position in existence, eighth grade. After eight years of Reading Skills, beanies, and rank-and-file lines, I was a grade school “Senior”. After that June, I had it made. I was now a Freshman and proud of it. But, all too soon I was a Sophomore, planning for Sugartown and kneeling again, this time to mourn the death of one of my own classmates; and. then a Junior, taking a leading role in Annie Get Your Gun and writing my first term paper. And now, with many memories of Sister Pius and Mr. Mrozinski, Mrs. Hebets, modular schedules, “humanities”, and computer dances, I must begin to prepare for a new part of my life away from many of the things I have grown to like; for a part of my life I dream about and try to plan, but a part that only time will unravel. But, I know that if I ever “walk through a storm”. I will “keep my head up high” because “at the end of the storm is a golden sky and the sweet silver song of the lark”. And so now, “with hope in my heart”. I’m ready to take my diploma and my determination and my dreams and go out to make them come true. And above all else, I know that “I’ll never walk alone”. 46 Julieann Constance Gugala Treasurer Elaine Victoria Kopicko Secretary Karen Emily McCormick JfRH ICH ftN Dennis Carl Modzelewski Carol Ann Rogowski Y vonne Esther Sal vet ta Cooperation is necessary and essential for any class success. ference to decide what will make “Color Us Gone a memorable Above, '69’ers Marsha labour and Jim Teed hold an informal con- and successful dance.

There will be ‘a mardi gras ball.’ ” This depicts just one aspect of the “Arrow beat” which includes football, baseball, and basketball games, class dances such as Color Us Gone, powder puff, and paper drives. Winning Home- coming or watching your basketball team vanquish their opponents after a 21-point deficit is that something which puts joy into the hearts of St. Al’s students. But, the Arrows also have serious moments such as the flag raising ceremony or Senior Ring Day. From sports events, to class projects, to school news, from the happiness of victory to the sadness of defeat, the “Arrow beat” thrives on student life. arrow Man loEiH arrow Student Life 65 (Above) Studenf leaders, Jim and John McDonald and Vince Stempien, raise the new flag as John Kennedy’s new generation” falls silent.

But, on November 22, we had it—patriotism, love of country, heritage and honor. And we showed it in an impressive reverent ceremony. Fred Hoffman, as master of ceremonies, de- livered a beautifully moving speech in memory of the late President. He then introduced Dear- born’s mayor, the veterans, and all of the many city officials present. They presented the school with a flag which Jim and John McDonald and Vince Stempien accepted. The banner was raised to full staff and slowly lowered as James Bieniek marched forward to play taps. The awed crowd had fallen silent and the choral’s strong and mighty Battle Hymn of the Republic burst forth. The ceremony was then completed and all of the reporters and photographers, students and guests turned from the scene. But, the flag re- mained as a reminder, a challenge, a hope, a promise to the youth of America from “that manner of man”. 67 Student, athlete, person equals Arrow (Above) John Rashid, Michelle Proulx, Carol Rogowski, and Mary Anne Bagozzi add some variety to the Senior lunch hour.

His supply of energy is inexhaustible. He is a student who spends six hours a day questioning and experimenting. He may be a math scholar, conquering func- tions and Euclidean Geometry. He is a choral major, providing the entertain- ment at the Christmas and Spring Con- certs. He is a language expert, fluent in French or Spanish. An Arrow is a leader, active in stu- dent government and extra-curricular ac- tivities. He is a member of the Student Council. He is a member of School Beautiful or Junior Traffic Safety, work- ing to become a responsible citizen. He is the Sodalist working in the inner city. He works furiously on Homecoming and paper drives. He is an athlete. Football, baseball and track are his fields. Softball and pow- der puff are hers. He ponders his future, his commit- ment, his God. He is an Arrow. King Arthurs Camelot (Top) JeDee Zajac is caught up for one brief shining moment” in the magical atmosphere of Camelot.

Don’t let it be forgot” that in that hall of velvet, amid the quiet strains of the Larry Michaels’ Quartet, she was enthroned by Father Mc- Murtrie and led to the ballroom floor by her gallant escort, the noble and brave Jeff Crause. Everyone then joined the couple in the royal dance and truly “there was no legal limit” to the grace and beauty there as girls clothed in rich satin and lace joined their proud escorts and found themselves in the land of Camelot. And “don’t let it be forgot” that the royal court and honor guard faithfully attended their queen. They flanked her path to the throne and protectively sur- rounded her when she graced the floor. Her subjects were loyal also as they readied the “castle ballroom” to welcome home their daring gridmen. And certainly there was “simply not a more con- genial spot” for Homecoming ’68 than the quietly and splendidly bedecked hall transformed by the Arrows to be called, in all traditions of joy and happiness, Camelot. And truly, “there was no legal limit to the joy here.” (Left) Laurine Smith and Ken Matykowski discover liotv easy it is to get lost in the splendor of Camelot . (Above) Queen Elaine Kopicko and Jeff Crause mirror the magic of the evening. 71 Students are rewarded with spectacular weekend Once I read a colorful and exciting story about a parade. A well-drilled marching band began the parade. It was followed by a long line of pom-pommed cars and floats. The floats, belonging to a high school, Saint APs to be exact, were the products of weeks of painting, pasting and chicken-wiring. The high point of the story was the paragraph about the queen’s float. Built like a throne room, it was graced by the lovely Queen Elaine. She had four ladies-in waiting — Janice, Jo Dee, Marsha and Michelle. Her honor guard followed, smiling and waving to the crowds. The parade moved on then, toward Fordson Field, where St. APs met St. Martin de Porres on the gridiron. The Arrows were victorious over de Porres (12-7). The story ended there on a note of thunderous jubila- tion. Victory and beauty reached a spectacular climax. The title caught my eye again. It was Homecoming ’68.

The air is lit with excitement as that special day approaches. Clever jingles invade the classrooms, via the PA. A Freshman leaving his classroom and a Senior rushing off to work are met with posters, cartoons, walking shoes and snow- men which fill the halls a week before a dance, shouting the details of the coming event. After days of expectation, the great night finally arrives. The beat of the social scene goes on as a dance becomes a time to shine, a time to feel pretty and handsome, a time to throb to the beat of the drums and listen to the spellbinding lead singer. From 8:00 to 11:00, the gym is filled with the sights and sounds of the Arrows in motion. At the stroke of 11:00, on come the lights. Each person rushes to grab a cartoon char- acter, a daisy, or a giant snowman from the wall. This he adds to his treasure trove of memories of Arrow dances—’69. (Above, extreme left) David Houle and Chris Chauvin plot their strategy to foil the 10:00 curfew set for the Freshmen at the Senior dance.

(Below) The seriousness of the situation is reflected in Junior-Senior coach Jeff Crouse’s hopeless stare as the Frosh-Sophomore team gains the ball and scores its winning touchdown. Reversed roles bring beauty, charm to gridiron What’s a powder puff? A fluff of cotton? Yes, but more! Powder Puff is a tradition at Saint Al’s. It means that once a year, all of the lunch table talk — for the girls any- way — turns to memorizing plays — “now, 35 means that Rachael passes to Denise”, and . . . Powder Puff means that all of the girls go off after school, to Anthony and Hem- lock Parks, with high spirits and a football tucked under each arm. It means that the regular football players, just finished with their own season, return to the gridiron in coaching capacity only. It means finally, that the Freshmen-Sophomore girls capture the coveted championship by a slim 6-0 edge. A squad of “varsity cheerleaders”, bedecked in striped tights, fuzzy mittens and an oaken barrel, added to the color of the game this year. With spunk and ingen- uity, Dom, Fred, Dennis and the boys built a human pyramid and flipped somersaults while their knickersocks, garters and beanies added style to their routine. For many people, powder puff will always be just a swab of cotton, but at Saint Al’s it will speak of a “helpless” mud-splattered girl in a three-point stance on the gridiron. 77 Sophs honor Seniors with traditional breakfast (Above) Carol Sami awaits her turn as Tizi Canducci dons her gown in the formal pre-Mass induction ceremony.

A cap and gown are dowdy unless they’re your cap and gown. They don’t have much meaning until you put them on for the first time. Setting precedent, the Class of ’69 donned cap and gown and received the blessing of their rings in a formal church ceremony. They assembled in the cafeteria to carefully “parallel mortar boards to the floor”. Solemnly, they marched into church. Sister Agnes Charles invested James McDonald, class president, in his cap and gown. Finally the remaining seniors stepped into their gowns and a senior year. After mass, the newly blessed rings came to symbolize community built through paper drives, dances and hard work. In.the gym. three dozen Sophomores girls nerv- ously prepared to serve the Seniors breakfast. After- wards the Class of ’69 was dismissed to enjoy a traditional free day. They left the Sophomores rolling up shirt sleeves and preparing to tackle mountains of dirty dishes. Meanwhile, down Schaefer, horns were blaring. The seniors were celebrating; caps still in place. 78 79 Mardi Gras debuts on Valentine's Day A one penny-one vote power struggle was being waged for king and queen. As the election dead- line approached, Senior-Sophomore rivalry mount- ed. Campaigners frantically began to sell cupcakes to raise bonus votes. Girls began coming to study hall with quilted patches which they transformed into stuffed turtles. “Lucky dollars” multiplied. A telegram station was set to open on February 14, to handle messages in French. International food favorites were ordered — bagels, French bread, sausage rolls, tacos and the all-American hot dog. Construction plans for booths were approved by planning committees. Giant apples were transformed into gooey feasts. It was much too late to be planning for a Christmas party and the Fourth of July was nearly five months away. So, what was going on at St. Al’s? What was happening in the middle of Feb- ruary? Flipping through the handbook of Ameri- can holidays, the occasion was listed in the M’s — mardi gras. 80 (Opposite, below) Gladys Knight and the Pips pose with their hosts, Michellene Paputa, Fred Hoffman and Cheryl (Jmlauf of the Grape- vine.

Now, let me finish.” “Happiness is ... a huge stuffed animal. . . . seeing Gladys Knight and the Pips. ... an evening dance and coronation of the Sen- ior king and queen.” “Hey, Charlie Brown, why don’t you just say it all in four simple words: Happiness is mardi gras!” (Left) A blindfolded Mike Umlauf vows to break the pinata.

For many, the day is just beginning as students rush off to their extra-curriculars. De- pending on talents and interests, St. Ai’s students can find the right or- ganization within the Arrow kaleido- scope of clubs.

Ask the Student Council and chances are the project will be efficiently executed. Led by an active and able executive board and an enterprising Mr. SchlafT, it does organize Homecoming, Mardi Gras, skating parties and Christmas carolling. It originates ideas for school improvement and helps pay for new stairs and treasured water coolers. It is the voice of the student body. It is made up of the leaders of the school. Buy a bagel? Share a candle-light Mass? Work in the inner city? The Christian Life Community, attempting to make Christianity a real and living thing, embarks on a variety of challenging pro- jects, seeking out the spirit of God in every man. It, too, leads in a special way. Looking for ushers for a concert or scholars who seek knowledge for its own sake? Ask the NHS. Need a leader in a practical, spiritual or aca- demic field?

Athletics, the testing ground of competitive efforts, are encouraged at St. Al’s by the Varsity Club, the Pep Club and the GAA. The Varsity Club fosters the develop- ment of the physical abilities and talents possessed by the men of St. Alphonsus. Its members meet the opposition on the gridiron and on the basketball court. But the Varsity Club champions also sell pop corn, sweep floors at half-time and char- ter game buses. The GAA. in a similar manner, or- ganizes the girl athletes’ competitive tal- ents into effective sports participation. The Pep Club efficiently lets the teams know that the school is behind them “all the way.” The Varsity Club, GAA and Pep Club are the foundation and basis of the ath- letic competition at St. Alphonsus.

A student is totally involved in all school ac- tivities. A variety of organizations enables the Arrow to excel in any extra-curricular field he wishes. He can be a good “cleaning- up” citizen or an “in-spirit” missionary. Sometimes, he is a budding actor or rock- hunting geologist. Always he is learning, even after the 3:15 bell.

Led by Cheryl Umlauf. they took polls of the student body, “talked up” newspaper and finally won student support and an administration O.K. But if the newspaper people thought that the battle was almost won, they found that it was just beginning. There were printing companies to contact, financial problems to face, a staff to organize and a newspaper to produce. But victories belonged to the newspaper people. They sorted out the “sometimes” and the “always” workers, worked their way through mounds of copy labeled “to be corrected,” “to be proof-read,” “to be approved,” and chose type sizes. Mysteriously, they even managed to produce pictures to enliven their layouts and articles. Finally, at the end of the first quarter, the first edition of The Arrow Grapevine hit the streets,” filled with news of Homecoming, report cards, class ac- tivities, athletics and jokes. The newspaper people girded themselves for a longer battle of endurance, learned from their mistakes and produced a quarterly paper, professional, polished, newsy. But of all the “happenings” The Arrow Grape- vine has covered, the victory of its existence is prob- ably the most noteworthy. 92 The Arrow Grapevine Staff: (Top row) John Rashid, Luana Strzempka, Vicki Richard, John McDonald.

Take a room jammed with bottles and papers, old yearbooks, a hub cap, a brown hat and a doll. Fill it with zany people—yearbookers. The Bazooka-chewing sports editor. The sporadic headline writer, The drama club “Brothers” writing poetry, cropping pictures, buying mask- ing tape, convinced of the co-editor’s insanity. Season with the competent femininity of the Junior girls, complaining good-naturedly of their latest English assignment. Add the youthful guidance of Miss Gallagher. Color with the antics of the jogging co-editors, convinced of their own insanity Heat slowly with a bit of school spirit and pride, and effort to capture the ‘beat’. Allow two months to mellow in the care of Modern Yearbook Company. The result—a special book, Arrow ’69. 95 S'UFEH5' S' ESEhB m r-isnari ( i Arrows follow rhythm of ‘beat’ Beyond the spirited, driving Seniors there is a body of boundlessly deter- mined. ingenious students known as underclassmen. Consider one. The Freshman struggling in math. The Sophomore racing to his class to beat the bell. The class officer trying to keep abreast of his responsibilities. He is the Junior hero at the paper drive. He is the Sophomore debate star. Or, maybe he is the Freshman at the end of the milk line. The underclassman is somewhat sur- prising. By definition, he is at the bottom. But, by his spirit, he is near the top. He has made the ordinary school day a bit different and the “Arrow beat” a lot lot stronger. arrauj ]oE3L anauu Underclassmen 97 Freshmen youngest enthusiasm, fire-up for success Freshmen are notorious for winding up in the right room at the wrong time and for getting lost in the September shuffle. Yet, they somehow know that hiding is the thing to do at the Senior dance when the clock strikes 10:00. And soon after they board their first football game bus, they come to realize that seats are not necessarily for Freshman use. By the second week of school, they’re already calling Cultural Appreciation simply “cultch”. By the second pep rally, they know how to do more than yell, “Yea, Freshmen!” By the second semester, many have begun to build strong scholastic records; others have dis- covered clubs and sports and begin to contribute, in their own way, to the “Arrow beat”. As a class, they plan an evening retreat to close their first half year of high school. By the second semester, they are interested and capable enough to elect their class officers for the first time and to plan their class dance. On they go, doing things, sometimes timidly at first, but confidently and proudly the second time around. By their second year of high school, it almost seems impossible that any one of them, just a little over 12 months ago, was a wide-eyed frightenend Freshman searching for his next class and rushing “up the down staircase.” 98 (Top, middle) Mary Ellen Karaczewski, Tom MeGlone to the Student Council.

Sophs enter larger world of study effort; refuse to be forgotten The Sophomore. The forgotten one. He knows his way around the school now, but few people know that he’s around. Or at least that’s the way he feels. He’s got a whole year of high school behind him and he’s still an underclassman. He’s still on the first floor most of the day and still has to give up his seat on the game buses if an upper- classman doesn’t have one. He’s buried under a mountain of heavier, more complex books than he has ever owned. He plans the Sophomore-Senior breakfast, but isn’t allowed in the gym with his honored guests. His mathematical mind is confused trying to visualize external and internal tangents and his artistic skill is sorely tried in biology when he has to reproduce his microscopic findings. Some- times he feels just plain lost. But, there are bright spots in his life. He is an athlete and proudly holds membership in the Var- sity Club. He goes Christmas carrolling with his class and then meets in the cafeteria for hot cocoa. His class dance begins the social functions of the new year. In early spring, he votes for his Junior officers. He plans his Junior schedule. A Junior. No longer the forgotten one. But then somehow, he finds it hard to leave Sister Celeste and Mr. Konieczny and his other class advisors. Looking back, Soph- omore year was really a lot of fun. He remembers the LSC and English class with Miss Cloutier. He remembers Sister John Martin and her pride in the sewing room. Maybe he wasn’t so lost after all. Maybe he was exactly what he should have been— a Sophomore. 104 ' A (Far left) Hard at work, Nancy Evon carefully puts the final touches on a Sophomore Homecoming Parade entry.

Beginning with the election of class officers and social chairman, the Sophs laid the foundation for their Junior machine”. Early in November, Phyllis Bone’s truck and Mary Scoda’s garage helped to stoke a strong fire in the “Junior machine” by handing it tons of paper. Working hard, the machine picked, packed and piled its way to victory and a coke and chips prize. With the paper drive safely behind, the cham- pion machine started gathering steam for its next objective. A well-needed Thanksgiving vacation began with Those Were the Days”. The Juniors found traveling back to the days of 1910 half the fun as they armed themselves with magic markers, spray paint and crayons to create their very own potpourri. They kept tradition with the annual turkey raffle. The delectable 22 pound bird was won by lucky Lynda McGlone, a Junior. A Christmas respite left the Juniors to “rumble on” to more successes in the ’68-’69 school year, to their rings and a new-born dream of Senior year, to create new bridges, and to run their machine across those bridges, without hesitation. The machine slowed down as June drew near. But, it had run well, to the rhythm of the “Arrow beat”. 110 (Above) A delighted Mike Narkiewicz hoards a “gold mine” of papers to add to the Junior’s winning cache.

It was a simple and absolute way of life, lived with people to whom we would now like to say, “Thank you.” To Modern Yearbook for overlooking our fumbling - bumbling inefficiency and for making our book. To Mr. Frank Ortman and Craine’s Studio for giving us a little T.L.C. To Sister Agnes Charles for letting us have this book. To Miss Gallagher for being an all-right, ace advisor all of the time. Finally, we would like to thank our staff. To the Business Staff for organizing a patron drive on only three day’s notice, for balanc- ing the books and sitting outside in a Yearbook patron booth one cold Sunday morning. To the people who trudged over to the “room”, laden with bagels, chips, bubble gum and fresh ideas. To those same people for adding “mellow” to our vocabulary and hub caps to the room’s” potpourri. For bringing the yearbook laughter, enthusiasm and sheer hard work. For helping us shape the 1969 Arrow. Being yearbook co-editors was fun — before and after and in the interim from August until June. It was an experience in living. 1969 Yearbook Staff Publishing Company: Modern Yearbook St. Clair Shores Photography Company: Craine's Studio Dearborn A d visor: Miss K.

It fought, for awhile, to retain summer’s freedom. But, on September 6. the ‘Arrow beat’ was born anew. At once strong and healthy, it was united. It worshipped. It fought. It studied. It was weary — but, never broken or defeated. I he ‘Arrow beat’, at once dynamic, continued to gain strength as parades, dances, homework, paper drives and athletics drew students together. But, as June approached, thoughts again turned to the sun and the beach and the “do your own thing” days of summer. For the graduating Seniors, the rhythm of the ‘Arrow beat’ must now be silently carried within them as they begin packing for UM or Eastern or assume the responsibilities of a full-time job. To the underclassmen falls the task of main- taining the strength and spirit of the ‘beat’, for as surely as it was born in September ’68, that same ‘Arrow beat’ will again rumble through the halls as summer gives way to September ’69 . arrow VMM S' d 0$ © - e-' «F � '')«$c C «w s € e « $ «g tr§ C ?
