while other networks are celebrating 25 or 50 years on the air, of broadcasting the good news of Jesus Christ to a believing community which responds in service to others. Scotus Communication Corporation (or Scotus Central Catholic, as it is better known) began broadcasting the good news of the gospel 100 years ago, when the Sisters of the Third C der of Saint Francis of Mary Im- maculate started the school in Au- gust, 1878. The non-denominational school with after-hours catechism instruction was housed in a two-and- one-half-story brick building 27 by 53 feet. Originally, it was an ele- mentary school, with higher courses added in 1882, when the school came under the administration of the Sisters of Saint Francis Seraph of Perpetual Adoration. The first class graduated from the tenth grade in 1895. By that time, dormitories, a laundry, and a new classroom wing had been added. Until 1925 the school was known as Saint Francis Academy; after pur- chase by the parish, it was called Saint Bona venture's School. The first issue of the high school annual ap- 1 St. Francis Academy as it appeared in 1886, with faculty, boarders, and visiting Mother Foundress of the sisters. 2 The former East Wing was located on the site of the present main structure, facing south. 3 After Memorial Hall, C building, and the science wing are completed, con- struction begins on the main structure. 4 The completed building: for seven more years, parts of the old building re- mained standing empty in the present courtyard. peared in 1937. In 1941 the school received North Central Accredita - tion. The hot lunch program, under the direction of Sister Cyril, began in 1952. In 1956 construction began on the science wing. The Memorial Hall construction began in May of 1958; the cafeteria was completed in De- cember of that year, just three hours before the first company dinner served there. The C building was completed in the fall of 1963, and the main structure of the present plant was dedicated in 1965. In that same year the school received a new name — Scotus, after the Franciscan scholar John Scotus. Eight other par- ishes joined St. Bona venture to form the new centralized junior and senior high school: St. Anthony and St. Isi- dore of Columbus, St. Mary and St. Augustine of Schuyler, St. Stanislaus of Duncan, St. Lawrence of Silver Creek, St. Rose of Genoa, and St. Joseph of Platte Center.

DAISY CATCHES ABNER Scotus drama and music departments combined efforts for a fall production of the Broadway musical Li'1 Abner. The timing of the production was most fortunate, as it coin- cided with Li'l Abner creator A1 Capp's announcement of his retirement and the disappearance of the popular comic strip from newspapers across the nation. 1 Speedy McRabbit responds to a summons from Available. 2 Stupefyin' Jones displays her powers. 3 The mayor of Dogpatch calls the citizens to action. 4 Mammy and Pappy Yokum hope they have raised their boy right. 5 General Bullmoose's secretaries wait at attention. 6 The general propounds his theories to Available and Ap- passionata. 7 Abner and Daisy Mae have a quiet moment to them- selves . 8 The wives send their husbands off to test the tonic. 9 Earthquake McGoon glares at his rival. IN FALL MUSICAL 1 Freshman dancers enjoy gala ball in Washington. 2 Marryin' Sam leads the chorus in a number. 3 The Scraggs arrive to complicate the plot. 4 The bachelors are off to a good start on Sadie Hawkins' Day. The play was directed by Mr. Jon Wrage and Mr. Dave Ferguson. Linda Warth provided piano accompaniment for the musical numbers. Tim Tinius, Floyd Kosch, and Ted Bonk assisted with lighting. Karla Heinsohn was student di- rector. Makeup was by Chris Davidson and Jacci Brown; art was by Joyce Kneifel, Sue Merrill, and Laurie Pekarek. Mrs. Ruth Jochum, Kelly Soulliere, and Marie McGilliv- ray were in charge of tickets. Peg McCillivray and Jacci Brown provided props. CAST Announcer's Voice ... Floyd Kosch; Pappy ...

You 1978 students represent the 100th year of a full century of Catholic education in Co- lumbus. It all begain in 1878 when three Franciscan sisters from Illinois arrived to teach in a new brick school outside Columbus. (Incidentally, Scotus stands on the same site today) In 1884 the school became known as St. Francis Academy, a boarding school for girls. In 1904 a boys' dorm was added. When the parish bought the school in 1925 it became know as St. Bonaventure High School where many of your parents graduated. Then in 1965 grades 7-12 were reorganized and renamed Scotus Central Catholic High School so that the entire Columbus area could be served by Catholic education. What does it mean to be part of a tradition? It means GRATITUDE gratitude for the efforts and example of many others before us. It means PRIDE—a willingness to maintain a spirit of enthusiasm and hope for the future. Don't let the past down; cherish the heritage given to you by the sacri- fices of those before you. Don't let the future down: accept responsibly your task of being the best student today you can be. PASS ON THE HERITAGE 1 Mr. Ed Hittner stands prepared for the day's activi- ties , which might include 2 measuring seniors for caps or 3 helping a student prepare a course of studies. Seniors of Seventy-Eight, do you realize that you have gradu- ated in the same year that we are celebrating one hundred years of Catholic secondary education in Columbus? This event will have much meaning to you in the future. Three generations of people have worked and sacrificed in or- der to establish and maintain a school in which young people in our area could study and develop their religious beliefs. It will soon become your responsibility to see that this tradition con- tinues . Support your faith and your school as so many others have done before you. 123 ROOM 26-A 1 Mr. Steve Jahn, junior high principal, teaches science. 2 Students of Mr. Vem Younger, biological sciences teacher, have been known to give blood for him. 3 Mr. Dave Ferguson urges students to melodious utterances. 4 Studying science and geography with Mr. Dan Mahoney may teach you more than you ever wanted to know about waves. 5 Sometimes Mrs. Sharon Swanson's science classes can be smelled up on third floor. 6 Balancing a budget is only part of the home economics course taught by Mrs. Deanna Ekeler. 7 New to Scotus, Mr. John Petersen elucidates for junior high students the mysteries of math and science. 8 Mrs. Barb Malicky adds girls' p.e. to her science this year. 124 125 126 OUR MISS BECHTOLD 1 Miss Virginia Bechtold suggests sources for senior term papers. 2 Sister Rita Wiegand serves as junior high librarian. 3 Father Joe Miskch demonstrates for junior religion. 4 Thursday is Father John Rizzo's day to in- struct the eighth grade. 5 Father Frank Kordek tells seventh graders about world religions. 6 Teaching 7th through 10th grade religion keeps Father Mike Gutgsell busy. 7 Father Kieran Kemner's love of drawing comes in handy in his junior religion class. 8 Sister Joan Orleans helps a student with a religion packet. oo vj o cn w to ■ WELCOME BACK, MRS.
