The purpose of this EXCELSIOR is to give you a glimpse into the everyday life of the students. It has not been easy to consolidate the two schools, Nazareth Academy and Saint Joseph, into one common volume of the yearbook. But now that it has been done, the benefits are well worth the long hours of strife. This book has been compiled for you, the students. The Seniors of 1965 leave it behind as a remembrance.

Seger offer to the students of Naza- reth Academy and Saint Joseph, the EXCEL- SIOR staff dedicates the 1965 Yearbook to them. Doctor ' Seger serves as the official physician for the Saint Joseph Flyer team. He is on hand at the sportmg events to insure the health and welfare of the boys. Mrs. Seger, also a medical doctor, besides being active in school-supporting organi- zations, is always ready to offer her assistance to the girls. A model homemaker and mother, she holds an annual marriage conference for the senitirs. We are proud to have dedicated this volume of the EXCELSIOR to two persons who have done so much for humanity — Dr. and Mrs. Forrest M. Seger.

SCHOOL LIFE p What happens to a high school student ' s time? He spends it . learning the ropes as a freshman . cheering the team on to victory . meeting to discuss activities . studying for exams . attending classes . experimenting in the laboratories . attending school functions . rehearsing for a musical or dramatic presentation . standing in the cafeteria line . fighting after-school traffic campaigning for student offices assisting at Holy Mass waiting anxiously for report cards receiving guidance from teachers preparing for graduation. These are all parts of . . . School Life. And So Begins Another Year Every year begins with the same routine — greeting old friends and making new ones, gathering materials and text books — a full and hectic first week of school. Although the places and externals may be similar to those before, they are filled with new activities, new attitudes, and newly acquired knowledge. These first weeks of the year will be recalled as Sep- tember, 1964. If you were a freshman, these first weeks were new and bewildering experiences, which gradually sharpened into focus as you became a full- fledged high school student. If you returned as a sophomore or junior, it meant a re-enactment of the year before. And if you claimed the title of senior, it meant the beginning of the last mile before the em- barkment on the sea of life. You will always remember the hectic flurry of getting settled, the earnest efforts at making friends, the few strained moments — all part of the beginning of another school year. Connie Ayo, Carol Brenner, and Pat Anderson find a minute of leisure alter class to explain a phase of the American way ot lite to Angela Tavelli, Nazareth ' s foreign exchange student from Rome, Italy. Angle spent the school year as a member of the senior class. i Confused freshmen Barbara Wagner, Peggy Cattan, Thelma Gutierrez, Loralee Tharp, and Rae Elwonger pity Jan Lewis, who has just had the misfortune ot droppmg her books during the rush between classes. Seniors, Eddie Dischinger and Lawrence Parkan, stroll down St. Joe Lane while casually discussing those hazy.craiy, lazy days of summer that have just gone by.

Cheerleaders spark a spirited yell at one of the St. Joe pep rallies during the football season. Annette DeLaurier and Judy Trevino don ' t seem to realize that they arc holding up the rest of the students, anxious to be on time for a Nazareth pep rally. Elizabeth Roos informs her mother that something unexpected has come up which needs her immediate attention after school. Extra Curricular Activities Not only do extra-curricular activities provide one with a good time, but they also offer an inner satis- faction. The feeling of belonging, and the personal joys received in contributing to the happiness of others are factors which make the events of the social side of high school so memorable. New surroundings for some, old surroundings for most, but for all a quick adaptation into the hubbub of the school year is an inevitable consequence. Couples enjoy the strains of the Musical Knights at the Homecoming dance sponsored by the junior class of St. Joseph. Senior annual statt members observe as Brother Woulfe displays different cover designs for yearbooks. Ml Nazareth high school students show honor and respect as the flag is raised in ceremony during Americanism Week. 13 A Senior Seems to Live in a World of His Own It can well be said that a senior lives one year in a world completely his own. As a senior, you feel that burst of pride as you display the hard-earned senior ring on your finger. You feel a certain superiority as you initiate the lowly freshmen. You feel mature when endowed with senior privileges and responsibilities. You feel honored when the Junior-Senior Prom is given just for you. And on graduation night, you feel sad as you realize that you leave behind forever the fun-filled high-school era, and that you shall never again return to it. A senior year is full of activities, emotions, responsi- bilities, and expectations. You finally realize just what an outstanding individual your school has made you, and you learn to be grateful for the fine standards and knowledge with which you have been endowed. As you leave the halls of Nazareth, stroll down St. Joe Lane for the last time, you can proudly say — This is my school; these sights are familiar to me because I ' m a part of this school and I shall never forget this graduation year. The beginning ot the year involves much paper work. However, Mike Hermes is anxious to settle his debts with school secretary, Rita Barnabei, and to become the proud owner of his senior ring. Monsignor Beck blesses the rings before presenting them to the seniors in a traditional ceremony. The gang ' s all here, let ' s give a cheer! Senior mock che leaders, led by ' Steph ' Fox, spark a yell of enthusiasm. - Annette DeLauner. the niummv at the initiation, otters freshmen a blood-curdhng experience- Carol Rossi exclaims with horror at some ghastly sight she beholds on the night ot treshman initiation at Nazareth Academy. Seniors Exercise Authority Rae Elwonger wearily lugs the books of senior, Carolyn Ham- mack, up the senior stairs before classes begin. Freshman. Bill Green, has a look of sur- prise as he IS grabbed by senior, David Pittman. Seniors Make Preparations for the Future Everyone welcomes a pleasant break in the schedule with a Coke break offered by the courtesy of Victoria College at the annual Career Day held for senior high school students. Students interested in the teaching profession listen attentive- ly as Mr. DuBose, conference director, relates some facts per- taining to the profession. Junior Achievement representatives visit St Joseph to interest stu dents in the many worthwhile programs that JA has to offer Senior boys are probed to thought as Father Otting presents some vocational advice by way of classroom study 16 Enthusiastic youths, Mike Hermes, Richard Fox, and Hal Redmon, register amusement as Brother Mike jokingly informs them that painting doesn ' t seem to be one of their artistic talents. Senior Boys Take Time Out to Aid Their School Charity begins at home. Seniors, the mature students of any high school, should realize the great truth of this slogan. Good will toward others provides one with an inner satisfaction which cannot be substituted by anything else. In return for the unselfishness offered by the Brothers of Mary over the years, several of the senior boys re- linquished a few of their leisure summer hours to re- furnish the high school classrooms with a refreshing coat of paint. This action not only saved the school considerable expense, but seemed to infuse new life into the student body as well. This act of charity serves as a lasting contribution of the Seniors of 1965 to the improvement of Saint Joseph High School. Bobby Bailey, Mike Gilley, and David Pittman pause to receive hints on painting technique from fellow workers. 17 L9 jj f , i -,. ' J| As Sister Gabriel teaches senior English, she is contronted with many questions posed by the inquiring students who will be tomorrow ' s leaders. %fiJf Ray Pargac finds that he needs plenty of blackboard space to solve this complicated math problem. Students Strive to Know Classes — the primary reason for the existence of schools. Attitudes toward classes change during the year. Everyone feels that burst of enthusiasm as he begins with a new schedule, and that enthusiasm slumps into the mid-term drag. But much too soon, that scholastic year ends and, only then, does the student realize how much he has learned. Classes are the basis and foundation of the high schools, and al- though it may occasionally be doubted, classes are one of the things remembered as an integral part of the school year. Pat Mackrell believes th.it the best, most effective way to study is to apply one ' s self in complete solitude without danger ot interruption. Under the direction ot Sister Perpetua, Jjne MtPhail and Carol Ley use the tape recorder lor speech critK and to Understand Mike Giiiey combats the falacy that it is impossible to concentrate in a study hall by ! intense concentration on his history lesson. With her experiment correctly perlormed, ' V ' olanda Hernandez experiences satisfaction iis she observes the results- Healthy Bodies Build Wholesome Individuals A vital function of the American school system is to develop students physically, as well as mentally. Through sports, one can gain a sense of fair play and experience the spirit of competition, which is the backbone of the nation. Here too, students find time to relax from the daily humdrum routine. Physical exercise serves as a break from the hour-long class periods and gives the mind a change and a rest. A truly spirited Flyers team prepares to begin a game with All for one and one for all! When tension is high, the Flyers can always be counted on to make a basket. Girls of the PE class enjoy competition with each other to improve their game skills. 20 Seniors prepare to enter church for a change of pace by assisting at the Holy Sacrifice ot the Mass. Father Otting administers Holy Commu- nion to St. Joseph high school students at weekly Mass. We Learn the Need of Spiritual Awareness The purpose of a Catholic school is to instill into youth the high standards of Catholic living, and to make them more spiritually-minded individuals. Students are aided to realize that God is the basis of all energy and that to Him goes the credit of success. In times of failure and triumph it is apparent that Our Heaven- ly Father is a giver of infinite graces and a source of confidence in distress. Truly, without Him we can do nothing. Nancy Halepeska pauses for a few quiet moments of reflective prayer with the Blessed Mother. Seniors meditate on the true significance of a high school diploma. And So Ends Another Year. The year draws to a close and you are caught up in a final whirl. You cram for the final exams and tie up all the loose ends you ' ve accumulated during the year. Those who will be coming back make preparations, and those few who have drawn to a close their high school career say good-bye to old friends and familiar places, and look forward with excitement and expec- tation to the future. You will always be a part ot the school you knew and as you visit it, you will realize that the backbone of the school you knew was YOU. On the day of baccalaureate services, seniors come to a tull realization that the year has passed. Through their trust in God, their ambi- tions will one day be ful- filled. 23 fv- • ACULl ' ' i K - ACADEMICS The Church Guides Us Father Patrick Fidgeon relaxes from his priesthood duties to read his favorite paper, THE IRISH ECHO. Father Fidgeon is a native of Ireland. As pastor of St, Mary ' s Church. Rt Rev, Msgr. F. O. Beck performs many church, school, and social duties. Msgr. Beck offers the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the high school students daily. Claiming the title of the oldest church in Victoria, St. Mary ' s Catholic Church is an example of Gothic structure. This church was erected by Martin de Leon, founder of Victoria, after his arrival in October, 1824. The church was later restored in 1840. Nazareth Academy and St. Joseph are very fortunate to have at their assistance Msgr. Beck. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is daily offered to the high school students of Nazareth Academy. Counsel is given to the students whenever needed. By daily example, these servants ot God strive to spread His Word. Through the untiring clturrs ot l- ' ather W.illis Stiles, moderator of St. Mary ' s ( A ' O, the cluh h.is become one ot the top ranking in the diocese 26 in Spiritual Harmony When the liturgical movement of the Church began, Father Alois Goertz, pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes, began to move with it. The parish is very active in fulfilling the wishes of the Holy Father, Pope Paul VI. Aiding Father Goertz is Father Joseph Coll. Father Goertz helps the youth ot Victoria by acting as advisor to Nazareth Academy seniors. He has aided many in need ot advice and counsel. Father Joseph Coll is active in hospital work and in helping the old. He visits the Victoria Hospitals where he encourages and consoles persons in need of his assistance. Father Goertz and Father Coll bring to many happiness. Looking justly proud, Father Alois Goertz, pastor of Our Lady ot Lourdes, displays a few of the many trophies won by his parish. V ,- . tfN i Father Joseph Coll, assistant pastor of the parish, has had many years of service to God. He gives many people in the hospitals spiritual help and advice. f 27 Father Eustace A. Hermes, pastor of Our Lady of Victory Parish, with his two assistants, Father Eugene O ' Callaghan and Father Jerald Hubertus, strive to increase the spiritual and physical activities of the young people in their parish. Father O ' Callaghan is moderator of the high school and elementary CCD classes. In addition to his regular pastoral duties. Father O ' Callaghan is moderator of the CYO and of the Legion of Mary. Father Hubertus is moderator of the Holy Name Society and of the Boys Scouts. Among his ma ny parish duties, Father Eustace Hermes spends much time in the confessional giving advice, consolation, and encouragement whenever needed. Father Jerald Hubertus pauses for a picture before gomg into the sacristy to prepare for the evening Mass. Our Parish Priests Lead The CYO officers of Our Lady of Victory discuss details about the forthcoming rally Father Eugene O ' Callaghan is ready with his encouraging words and guidance. 28 Father Richard Toal, Father Vincent Patrizi and Father Juan Ayerbe ot Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church are entrusted with the spiritual welfare ot all the Latin Americans in Victoria. One of the priests regularly visits their mission in McFaddin, Infant of Prague, to administer the sacraments and give the people spiritual guidance. Along with their regular pastoral duties they are called upon to lead eighteen different parish organi- zations. Their CYO is one of the largest in the dio- cese and is led in its mission ot guiding the social activities of young people by Father Vincent. Father Richard Toal, pastor ot Our Lady ot Sorrows, spends considerable time studying the new liturgy of the Church. Us to Our Eternal Salvation Father Juan Ayerbe takes great enthusiasm in teaching his CCD class on Monday night in the Baptismal room of Our Lady ot Sorrows Church Father Vincent Patrizi attempts to explain the changes in the Mass. 29 r y: ' Our Lady ot Victory Church Our Lady ot Lourdes Church The Four Parishes of Victoria Saint Mary ' s Church r Our Lady of Sorrows Church 30 Seated: Rev.

Education of St. Joseph School Inc. Aids the School with Its Beneficial Advice 31 This is Brother Mikes first year as Principal of St. Josephs High School; and he has taken the reigns of administration with great enthusiasm. As a result, the Student News Bureau, the Student Loan Fund, Employ- ment Bureau, and the School Worker Policy have been nurtured into being. In spite of his many duties, he finds time to be mode- rator of both the National Honor Society and the Fa- ther ' s Club. He also spends considerable amount of time counsehng Juniors and Seniors for college. Brother Mike was born in Texas and has a Texan ' s belief about success. He feels that personal contact with the general public as well as the friends of the school bring about an atmosphere for success. So far, he seems to have proven his theory quite well.

Living, and Loving God The role of the teacher in the student ' s daily lite is more than that of sitting behind a desk, or tapping a ruler, trying to put knowledge into a mind. The teach- er is more than a presenter of tacts, a walking encyclo- pedia. Her job includes the important role ot instilling in the minds of her students a deep love ot God and fellow man. Through patient and skilltul guidance, a Sister prepares her students well for the venture on the broad sea of life. 41 Sister Ernestine Piloteer Sponsor Eighth Grade Sister Providence Seventh Grade Sister Mary Virginia Seventh and Sixth Grade Home Economics Faculty Keeps Busy Sister Margaret Mary guides Robert Scharr, a third grader, as he paints his masterpiece at weekly art classes.

Sister Mary Grace First Grade 45 1 WIT I 1 fm f ft l Nazareth Academy and St. Joseph High School revolve around a sound religious education. It is through this special education that the high school boys and girls can proceed into the world with a good understanding of their religion. Religion is an integral part of every student ' s life. During the four years of high school, students study the loves of God — the creative love of God the Father, the redeeming love of God the Son, and the sancti- fying love of God the Holy Spirit. This text is the tool in reaching happiness with God. In keeping with the modern movement of the Church, David Balboa and Mike Gilley put their hosts into the ciborium. These hosts will later become the Body and Blood ot Jesus Christ in the Mass. Religion Reveals to Us a Religion is a subiect requiring thorough and diligent study. Tom Halepeska explains a tacet of the religion lesson of the day. 46 Connie Schroeder lights a candle ti)r the morning devotions in honor ot Mary which are held in the seninr hume room during the month of May. In kcepmg with the liturgical movement that the Mass is a Eucharist Feast, the students of St. Joseph participate in the Mass by receiving Holy Communion Better Understanding of God Bible study is an integral part of the religion course. While duscussing the book of St. Matthew, Alice Briones clarifies a point tor her companions. 47 J With the aid ol the shde rule, Linda KJeiti IS able to calculate rapidly the figures related by Judy Trevino and Shirley Humphrey in trigonometry class. Science and Math Move Man to Conquer Unknown As Tommy Kallus and Tom Respondek check over their lab data, Mary Teresa Holm measures out a quantity of alcohol to perform a specific gravity experiment. Science is the door to the future. Mathematics is the key which will open that door. It depends on the science stu- dent of today whether the door will expose a brilliant era of conquests in space, disease, and peace. Science is basically a question and answer game. Its roots go far back to the Greeks and the begmnings of philo- sophy. In the middle ages scientific thought evolved and with it came the concepts of modern experimentation. Thus, answers to the questions formed in philosophy are found in the realms of science. In mathematics we go to a purely non-existent state of mind over matter — a world where everything is relative to the constant speed of light. Also there are always new worlds to conquer. Each year brings new fields for young men and women to enter and pioneer m. There will al- ways be answers to seek for the question Why.- ' . The direction of these answers is in the hands of students today. 48 Dissecting an earthworm talces a great deal of patience as IVlatt Seger experiences Magnesium ribbon bursts into flame as Pat Anderson and Connie Ayo observe a combustion experiment m the chemistry lab. Frontiers Chemistry teacher. Sister Borgia, explains how copper oxide is reduced as Debbie Truman finishes her experiment. 49 Mela Parkinson attempts to memorize a script in a three act play performed by the Nazareth Academy speech class. English is spoken throughout the world. Yet, it is i mpossible to become so well trained in this language that one may speak it perfectly. In its intricate folds are found terms from every spoken language in the world. Add to this a sprinkling of words borrowed from the old civilizations, and you have a nearly com- plete language. Nearly complete because it is a living language, one which grows as the people grow. It is constantly changing, casting of! old, outmoded words and donning fresh new ones. The student must learn to have command of this facility. He will not suffer because he can ' t communicate with people. For communication of ideas is the basis for progress. English and Speech Are Basis The Return of the Naliie. To Kill A Mockingbird. and The Citadel are among the many literary books that must be read before college. While Donna Svoboda, Marilyn Hammack, and Con- nie Schroeder prepare to read. Diane Talafuse dist ributes a btH)k to C vnthia Lazann hcs tor cdutational n nL ' W pa[icrs and Cynthia Kaiinowski reluctantly begins research on a theme tor English class. for Progressive Communication Brother John Woulte points out the various types ot sentences in English grammar, Later on, diagramming sentences will help the student visualize these ditterent and dittitult sentence structures. Notes, notes, and more notes must be taken by history students. Studies embrace all periods from the ancient civili- zation of Greece to the modern world of communism. We Study the Past to I Now and then. Brother Lawrence BuxkLinpci .ilUn s ihi. ..lass to break up mto small discussion groups. What are they studymg, ' History, of course. Julie Adamcik concentrates on the lesson lor the day. Daily quizzes are taken to keep the mind in top thinkin).; order. Sister M- Blanche smiles over a humorous answer given to her question. World History presents to the student the successes and failures oi bygone generations. Live for the Future History is defined as an account of what has happened. It is a study — the study of man ' s achievements and failures. History throbs with Hfe because it is a living account. Nothing of which man has ever been a part of can ever lose its piece in his life. Today, history is being made. One must hope whatever lessons can be learned from It, will be put to good use. In the world today we face many problems. Here Brother Jerome Matz teaches the nature, causes, and effects of these problems. Only then, can the solutions be found. 53 Textbooks are not the only method of acquiring a knowledge of Spanish. Sharon Ganem, Karen Parkinson, and Anna Marie Pardee practice their conversa- tional Spanish with the aid of a record. The Study of Latin and Spanish Brother Christian Janson illustrates the proper techniques of translating Latin Suzanne Moreau writes a Latin sentence on the board for the class to translate. A study of a foreign language helps a student to recognize the influence other cultures have had upon his own. He learns that the Latin language isn ' t dead, for it lives in English and the other romantic tongues. The student, through the study of this language, can see the contributions of the ancient Romans to the world of today. Spanish, a derivative of Latin, is an important part of life here in the Southwest. Through the study of this language, a student becomes more aware of the Spanish influence in the culture, and in many of the customs here in Texas. Sister M. Carmelita teaches Susie Nemes the correct pronunciation of the word pitcher. Brings About Harmony and Cultures Spanish instructor, Bro. Leo Scholz relates tales ot old Mexico to a group of interested students. 55 Commercial Courses Train Capable Secretaries The adding machine is the Western World ' s answer to the Chinese abacus. They both are an artificial aid to boost a mans mathematical inadequacies. You ' ve got to use a darker pencil on those construction lines! Brother Buxkemper reminds Joe De Los Santos during mechanical drawing class. Today ' s business world has many demands for efficient secretaries. St. Joseph and Nazareth Academy offer career-minded students such com- mercial courses as typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and secretarial training. These subjects aid, not only those whose occupation it will be, but also, the college-bound students. Comple- tion of commercial courses in high school can prove to be an asset in the future. Proficiency in shorthand is a skill required of every good secretary. Mary Esther Rodriguez works to increase her speed in shorthand. 56 In preparation for a future housewife, every girl should know the demands of running an efficient home. Nazareth Acad- emy offers Home Economics to acquaint students with the basic skills of cooking and sewing. Students emerging from this class have taken the first step tcjwards becoming a well-rounded housewife. SL-niors, Liiul.i .N rion ani] a scnsu .iiui Linda Klein.

Mrs. Garza is very active in daily routine lite of the school. As a member of the Nazareth Academy janitorial staff for many years, Mr. Brosch is a familiar sight to many faces. Among many of the duties that Mr. Brosch attends to are stacking the lunch dishes.

How can I begin to speak about the many great experiences that I have had since I came to Texas! My own country is Italy, but after living in Ameri- ca since August, I cannot say exactly which coun- try I prefer. When I received word that I was to come to Texas, I was happy even though I did not know what was waiting for me. While I was on the train, I kept thinking about my new family — who they were, what they were like, and would they like me after knowing me. I was afraid when the train stopped that I would not recognize my host family. My trip finally was over, and it did not take long to find out that my family was just wonderful. The first months in Texas were full of new things which fascinated me. Then school started. The first day of school was very hard for me. At the end of each subject, we had to change class. This never happened to me before, since we used to be in the same class and our teachers changed instead. One thing that I never saw until I came to Texas is a football game. I attended many games with my host sister, Connie Ayo, and I enjoy them very much. The first time that I saw the cheerleaders and heard all the teenagers cheer for their team with songs and cries, 1 was so shocked I did not know what to make of it. But after the second game, I liked all the noise. This year is really a great experience for me and I will never forget it nor will I forget all my new American friends.

These seniors comprise the 196 HALL OF FAME. PATRICIA WEBER loves life. Pat is charmingly simple, but at the same time is a person of many complexities, never fading, always refreshing. She possesses a truly good and artful personality. With very high ideals ever before her, Pat has done much to permeate good school spirit among the NA students. DAVID PITTMAN, sometimes called Dave , is the type ot person who believes in where there ' s a will, there ' s a way. This determination was proven when he undertook the responsibility of co-editing the EXCELSIOR and painting the high school interior in the summer ot his junior year. All who meet David respect him as a capable leader. Always considerate ot others, he is a truly likable person. 75 CHARLOTTE BROWN is inclined to be serene and composed, but turns unpredictable with an outburst of free laughter when something finds her fancy. A real asset to the Student Council, newspaper and annual staff, she continually gives of herself to her fellow classmates without the slightest note of hesitation. TOMMY KALLUS is a well-rounded senior. His expression ot opinion, always based on sound reasoning, has kept him in demand on numerous projects. As president ot the Student Council, he has been responsible for the success of many of this year ' s high school activities. While not out- standing in any particular sport. Tommy has always participated in basketball, football, and track. 76 i T PATRICIA SEGER, one of the outstanding students of the senior class, ranks among the three highest students in her class. An open- minded girl, she has the courage to express her convictions and opinions. Exercising this rare quality makes Pattie a leader and wins her many lasting friendships. JAMES ORSAK, co-editor of the EXCELSIOR, is known for his hard work and dedication to the school. During his senior year, Jim was the vice- president of the National Honor Society at St. Joseph ' s. Aside from being a promising scholar, he is an avid sportsman and enjoys outdoor ac- tivities such as hiking and camping, made possible through the Explorer Program. 177 ALICE BRIONES, a jubilant yet determined senior, is rarely found without a smile. Alice is conscientious about her studies and maintains one of the highest averages in her class. However, she IS always ready to lend a helping hand where it is needed. Working as president of the Victoria Deanery CYO and co-editing the ' 65 EXCEL- SIOR keeps Alice on her toes . Yet she finds time for still other things. This may account for the many friends she has. 178 HAL REDMON is a talkative and cheerful senior who makes friends easily. Often kidded about his height, Hal takes the ribbing good-naturedly. When given a task, he will accomplish it in fine fashion. As president of St. Vincent De Paul So- ciety, secretary of the Student Council, and busi- ness manager ot the EXCELSIOR, he participates m many worthwhile activities. TED SCHOENBERG is an energetic St. Joseph senior who has played in and led the band as drum major this past year. He worked closely with the Piioteers and they and the band praise him for the fine job he performed. The earnestness and sin- cerity which characterizes his endeavors is present when he is with old friends or when making new ones. They have shown their friendship in return by electing Ted to the Hall of Fame. MARY TERESA HOLM is a remarkable person in that streaked through her serious mind, there runs a daring that ' s anything but monotonous. Its not uncommon to see Mar.y Teresa introduc- ing something new in fashion to her classmates. Her oratorical abilities have taken her to Wash- ington D. C. and earned her the annual D.A.R. award. As co-editor of the EXCELSIOR and president of the Student Council, she has refresh- ed the school with many new ideas turned successful. 1 79 v:;- -.:-:vAV-:v. n. X Y CONNIE AYO, a pert n petite senior, shows vim and vigor whenever there is a job to be done. During the past year, she has spent much time showing Angela Tavelli, ItaUan exchange student, the American way of hfe, while leading a progres- sive life of her own. Connie is usually seen talking with her friends, coloring the conversation with her dry sense of humor. THOMAS RESPONDEK, head of the Student Employment Bureau and a member of the EX- CELSIOR staff, is a valuable asset to the extra- curricular programs at St. Joseph. He ' s willing to help others, and is always ready to gain a new friend. His participation in the Future Physicians Club is a preparation for a career as a Doctor of Dental Science. Two of Tom ' s favorite leisure- time activities include bowling and dancing. 80 STEPHANIE HARKER is described by her classmates as a determined and talkative senior who finds little time to squander. She has proven herself capable of handling responsibilities through her service as cheerleader and co-editor of the NA Chats. Steph ' s quick but thoughtful wit has made others regard her as one of the top seniors of 65. j EDDIE DISCHINGER, one of the friendliest seniors, is well-liked and respected by everyone. An accomplished musician, he has served St. Joseph well for many years as a member of the Flyer Band. His leadership abilities haven ' t gone unnoticed either. He has fully carried out his duties in the offices he holds in the band and various other organizations. Inclined to be light- hearted, he will be at the bottom of many timely pranks. LINDA MIORI is bubbling over with love, life, and laughter. She is carefree but deeply under- standing and responsible. This has been proven in the past four years by her very active work and executive positions in the Student Council. Her sympathy is her essence. Linda ' s glowing eyes seem to say, Td like to share that with you. MICHAEL GILLEY, the section head of the Organizations and Activities Division of the 1965 EXCELSIOR, is the strong but quiet type of person. An avid spt)rtsman, Mike enjoys hunting, fishing, and camping. He is a dedicated person who takes his responsibilities seriously and who is always willing to give his support to any school project. 182 LARRY LUNA is a cheerful and very friendly senior who makes friends easily. As a booking agent for a local musical group, he has been of tremendous help to the school by contracting bands for the various school dances. Larry is also a fine musician and has entertained the student body on several occasions. KATHLEEN HAWES, a quick-witted senior, makes lasting friends of all acquaintances. Through her service as president of the senior class, Kathleen ' s strong leadership ability has been magnified. Beachcombing plays second choice to Kathy ' s favorite enjoyment which is listening to fine music. 83 ' f 4 UNDERGLASSMEN Junior Favorites 186 Dim lights, soft music and heavenly deco- rations comprise the Junior-Senior Prom — the highlight of every Junior ' s year. Can any Junior ever forget their success- ful bingo, the many prom meetings, the decorating until all hours of the night and finally the night that a dream became a reality. Academically this year offers a variety of electives so students may start prepar- ing themselves for their careers. The Junior year aids individual develop- ment and class unity. The virtue of class unity is truly learned and practiced dur- ing these months of preparation on their projects. Judging from their wonderful job on the Prom the Juniors really understand the meaning of class unity. Bro.
