Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr. In the words of President Richard Nixon on July 20 1969: Because of what you have done, the heavens have become a part of man ' s world. As you talk to us from the Sea of Tranquility, it inspires us to redouble our efforts to bring peace and tranquility to Earth. The pages of this annual are to preserve the memory and ideas of the men who conquered the moon. Our field of view has widened and our outlook brightened. From these brave astronauts we gain the incentive to reach ever upward to the once unattainable star.

' vr. ;:■• ; ■, ■A A hundred years ago Father Gar- det erected a small frame building calling it St. Joseph ' s Institute. Soon the Brothers of Mary came to Victo- ria to instruct the Catholic youth of this area. Until the late 1930 ' s, they lived on the second floor of this mem- orable old institution pictured on the left. A modern brick home was pro- vided for them when St. Joseph ' s Col- lege, as it was then known, was mov- ed from downtown to College Park. A picture of St. Joseph ' s College about 1915 as taken from the steps of St. Mary ' s Church. Brothers who taught at that time are shown standing in front of the wooden building. We ' ve Come a Long Way On November 26, 19 3 5, a corporation known as Saint Joseph ' s Educational Founda- tion was formed in Victoria. With the purpose to offer a better and higher Catholic education to the youth of this city and of Texas, it has functioned faithfully throughout the years. This vital organization has been supported by the voluntary contributions donated by its con- stituent members. As a result of the efforts on the part of the board members, St. Joseph ' s has witnessed many improvements since the days of St. Jo- seph ' s College on Main Street. Due to unfortu- nate circumstances, the school was closed sev- eral times, but after 1906 it has remained in continuous operation. The Saint Joseph ' s Schools, Inc., as it is now known, has met and overcome various obstacles to keep our school going. When the school was moved to its present spacious campus, many im- provements were made to offer young men a well-rounded education. Its name was changed to St. Joseph High School and it underwent numerous other transitions. Most recent of these is the cafeteria which is a proof of the efforts of the Board of Trustees. Modern facilities have been blended successfully with tradition to make St. Joe what it is today. The cafeteria prepares meals each week-day for both the high school and the grammar grades. lec-x ' arij M The 1970 Board of Trustees are (seated) Rev. Clarence Leopold. Rev, E. A. Hermes. Msgr. F.

And Our Future Looks Bright Comprised of intereste(i aiKJ (devoted citizens, the St. Joseph School Board has shouldered the responsibility of maintaining the management of our school. Working steadily and determinedly for bettered education facilities, they have proven to be truly the foundation of the school. These men who serve on the board have spent many hours of their time and have given beneficial ad- vice in order to present students with opportuni- ties for the finest education possible. We are grateful and indebted to them for their contribu- tions. OtTicers of the St. Joseph Schools. Inc. are (from left to right) Albert Harrison. Jr.. secretary-treasurer: Thomas M.

As the sun begins rising towards its zenith early in the day, we commence our surge ever upward early in life. At the first day of school we are faced with mixed emotions of regret at leaving the leisure summer months behind and of anticipation for the excitement of school life. During the year we meet with . . . the flurry of finding classrooms for the first time, . . . the confusion during the hectic moments of getting settled, ... the stimulation of meet- ing new people and enkindling old friendships, ... the eagerness to quench our thirst for knowledge, ... the anxiety felt before report cards are distributed, ... the agony of losing an important game, . . . and the satisfaction accompanying a sense of accomplishment. We are students in a crucial stage of devel- opment. Educated by the experiences and knowledge of today, we must continually move forward to improve and prepare ourselves for the challenges of tomorrow.

' V ; -i Xy :S Victoria Parishes Are Alive Claiming the title of the oldest church in Victoria, St. Mary ' s Catholic Church is an example of Gothic structure. It suggests an Age of Faith, which is still alive in the Catholics of today. Father Clarence Leopold and Father John Orr play a very important role in the spiri- tual development of the students. Through their zeal, influence, and untiring efforts in leading souls to God, Catholics can look to these priests for leadership and inspira- tion in all matters. Our Lady of Victory Church, the newest parish in Victoria, is a source of pride to its parishioners. The Catholics of the parish are in- deed grateful for the assistance of Father Eustace Hermes, Father T. Vinklarek, and Father Enda Mc- Kenna. These priests serve approx- imately 1000 families and provide them with spiritual guidance. Even though it is one of the largest churches in Victoria, Our Lady of Victory is well equipped to deal with the needs of all its members. FATHER CLARENCE LEOPOLD per- forms many church and school duties as pastor of St. Mary ' s Church and senior Religion teacher at NA. FATHER VINKLAREK does an excel- lent job of helping the parishioners ex- perience spiritual comfort and contact with God. With Zeal and Enthusiasm FATHER EUSTACE HERMES, pastor and the head of the Victoria Deanery, works diligently everyday to perform all the necessary pastoral duties expected of him by his parishioners. FATHER EN DA McKENNA. newcom- er to Our Lady of Victory Church, has done a tre mendous job in reducing the pastors daily duties. His enthusiasm in performing these tasks is often conta- gious. Besides his duties as assistant pastor of St. Mary ' s Church, FATHER JOHN ORR also instructs the junior religion class and moderates the weekly CCD classes. Priests Emphasize the f vM. Father Toal Standing in the very heart of Victoria, Our Lady of Lourdes Parish has given inestimable cour- age to countless individuals. It reaches out to many Catholics to guide and bring them to the real- ization of God. FATHER TOM COLLINS oversees all of the parish welfare and is highly re- garded and respected by his parishio- ners.i I Pastoral in Their Duties The lives of the Spanish-speak- ing population center about their Church. Aided by a deep knowl- edge and understanding of the lan- guage, customs, and beliefs of the Latin American people, Father Richard, Father Vincent, and Brother Christopher are able to work with them in their quest for the ultimate goal, everlasting hap- piness. FATHER RICHARD TOAL. pastor of Our Lady of Sorrows Church, gives a boost to the spiritual growth and wel- fare of all his Latin America parish- ioners. FATHER VINCENT PATRIZl not on- ly performs many duties as assistant pastor, hut also administers the sacra- ments and gives the people spiritual guidance. BROTHER CHRISTOPHER DOYLE is able to reach the younger genera- tion through his patient guidance, un- derstanding, and hard work with the Boy Scouts. Administrators Manage Operation As of January 26, Brother John Kurtz has been principal of St. Joseph High School. Not only did Brother have numerous responsi- bilities to assume, but also it was necessary for him to put forth an extra effort in order to adjust to the unfamiliar curriculum and sur- roundings. Brother Kurtz ' s vigor and sin- cere interest were quickly recog- nized by all students attending St. Joseph. This year, Brother Ralph Krull relin- quished his duties as high school principal to Brother Kurtz. Brother Ralph served as principal for two and a half years. During those years, he helped St. Joseph overcome many obstacles. Through his efforts, St. Joseph is still functioning in accordance with the highest standards established by the state. While he was here. Brother was highly respected in the student circle. Although he has left St. Joe, the students will always remember and appreciate his contributions to the school. Mrs. Carl Heiling, school sec- retary at St. Joe, occupies herself by recording tuition fees, seeing that students ' transcripts are ac- curate, and keeping the attendance records up-to-date. She is always prepared to aid any teacher or stu- dent during her spare time. b £  ? r ::Xi;; 2 ,:- : W, ' ' T f!J8 with Efficiency and Understanding The Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament have earnestly tried to prepare all Nazarites to face the many challenges and decisions that lie ahead. Their daily contact with the students manifests a certain spirit of generosity, friendliness, and understanding. These sisters have given the pupils at Nazareth much solid advice and guidance to as- sist them on their way to future accom- plishments. Sister Borgia, high school principal, uses the wisdom, which she has gained from experience, and her keen under- standing to keep our school running smoothly. Her main objective is to pro- mote the spiritual and intellectual de- velopment of her girls. Her interest in each girl is extended beyond the class- room because Sister Borgia concerns herself with the personal problems and the goals of each student. The grammar grades acquired a new principal this year. Sister Stephana. With sister have come a smiling face, keen intelligence, and great desire for thi se under her Jurisdiction to learn. In addition to her duties as principal. Sister Stephana also conducts seventh grade classes. Sister Alberta, senior sponsor and moderator of the Future Teachers, finds her schedule completed by two junior and senior English courses in addition to her duties as senior Religion teacher. Her ability to analyze the personality and solve conflicts for stu- dents often draws them into her confidence. Sponsors Inspire The energetic Sister Raphael keeps herself busy by con- ducting the P.E. classes, coaching the Jettes. teaching two Algebra classes, and taking on the task of junior sponsor. Whenever one of the girls is in need of a frank and solid opinion they can always depend on Sister Raphael to tell it like it is. Slater Anna Marie nicL-ts Iki Sophs every school day with a chccrtui smile and a happ good morning greeting. Her day consists of guiding the sophomores in religion, teaching geom- etry, and instructing the Biology classes at both schools. Sister Anna Marie is always willing to put aside what she ' s doing to help out a distressed Soph. High Ideals Sister Carmelita is the freshman sponsor and teaches a various amount of subjects which include Religion 1. Spanish 1,2, and English 2. Sister has the responsibility of seeing that all fresh- men get orientated into the high school activities and well ad- justed to the great change they are experiencing. Sister Andrea, a newcomer to the fac- ulty, has accepted the challenge of head of the business department with great ease. Teaching typing, secretarial train- ing, bookkeeping, and moderating the National Honor Society are all in a day ' s work. Faculty Opens Sister Perpetua, a brisk and energetic teacher, always has a warm smile and kind word for each of her students. Sister teaches Religion 1, Eng- lish 1, and Speech 1,2. She manages to stay occupied as moderator of the Legion of Mary. Speech clubs and as a guidance counselor. rvTtrnin As head of the govern- ment studies department. Sr. Eugenia strives for accuracy and organi- zation. Each of her World History. Civics, and American History classes are very well presented to the stu- dents. Doors to Knowledge Sr. Blanche provides reading for knowledge and for pleasure for all students in her library. Conducting the library science classes and checking books and magazines are a few of the routine tasks carried on by Sr. Blanche every day. Sr. Marietta, head of the Home Economics depart- ment, prepares her girls in making the home a happy and comfortable place to live. Knowing how to do many things such as cooking and sewing is the purpose of H.E. classes. There is a change of pace for Sr. Marietta each day when she takes o n her seventh grade live wires. In her role as directress of the music depart- ment. Sister Alma is compelled to spend long hours practicing. As Piloteer, Choral Club, and Tri-M moderator. Sister is the helping hand who leads the way to the smooth running of her school activities.

Father Jose Ramirez. Brother Joseph Grieshaber Sister Michael Devine Religion and English: RELIGION is the only course that distinguishes the Catholic school from any other. It is the main reason most of us attend Nazareth Academy or St. Joe. In Religion, we find our God. Through this Discovery and our experience of Him, we are, in turn, able to find ourselves. Once we know who we are , we are cap- able of developing our talents and capacities for the service of our Creator. In all Religion classes, discus- sion of modern religious problems is encouraged. In addition, we study early history of the Church. Catalysts for Psychological Growth ENGLISH, in addition to Reli- gion, is the only subject required for the entire four years of high school. This proves its relevance to our every-day life. At almost every moment, we are called upon to ei- ther speak or write intelligently. Our courses consist of an inter- mingling of the history and devel- opment of literature with a study of correct grammar usage. r , v S M f k Math and Science: In this decade of man ' s landing on and exploration of the moon, SCIENCE has captured the spot- light. We have advanced in all directions, which ranges from transplanting human hearts to har- nessing nuclear energy for useful purposes. The science teachers at Nazareth Academy and St. Joseph have tried to prepare us for our step into this world of technology through the courses of physical science, biol- ogy, chemistry, and physics. aS m ■ • ■ ■ W ' - 1 9 p_ m V aaJ Bj HkII ' ' g M llm mti ■ KM 1 iw • 1 H iwm Bf - L.... i i I H ■nm Two Important Steps Forward Today ' s MATH courses are geared not only to teach the stu- dent how to solve a problem alge- braically, but also to encourage him in the processes of logical rea- soning. Because of greater techno- logical advances, a good foundation in the field of mathematics is es- sential to anyone wishing to take a place in the modern business world. Algebra, geometry, and analysis are the basic courses of- fered at our schiiois. History, Languages, and Electives Through a FOREIGN LANG- GUAGE we are given insight into the speech, customs, and history of other nations or civilizations. Nazareth and St. Joseph offer Latin and Spanish, two extremely valuable languages. The BUSINESS COURSES. secretarial training, bookkeeping, typing economics, and shorthand, offer direct vocational training to students. They assist those who do not plan to continue a formal ed- ucation in college. X?ISg£gi X1i;S3S2S2SAlE ' KZ2;3 Expand Educational Horizons Because HISTORY is known to repeat itself, we find that a study of the past is essentia! in understanding the events of the present and predicting what will hap- pen tomorrow. In AMERICAN PROBLEMS. CIV- ICS. WORLD HISTORY, and AMERI- CAN HISTORY, we are conditioned for world occurrences and are prepared to step out and participate in them. Through LIBRARY SCIENCE we learn the proper techniques of research, which aid our quest for knowledge and truth Three interesting electives which vary from the usual academic load are SPEECH. MECHANICAL DRAWING, and HOME ECONOMICS. Speech students gain poise and confi- dence through poem recitals, participation in plays, and extemporaneous speaking. In mechanical drawing the tools essen- tial in a man ' s business world are intro- duced. Home Economics teaches us such prac- ticalities as sewing and cooking.

Mary Ann Byrne, the co-ordinating editor, put forth great effort on this year ' s Excelsior. Working in the capacity of a co-editor, she took charge of balancing all accounts, and headed the sub- scription drive. The work was co-ordinated between NA and St. Joe through her direction. Whenever a staff member was in need of help, he could always turn to Mary Ann for new and original ideas. Sister Borgia explains the principles of good layout to Pat Hennessey. Father Ramirez, yearbook adviser for St. Joe, of- fered many helpful point- ers to the staff members. Sandy Kruppa and Mary Sue Hebner complete their work on the senior section. Fulfills Challenging Task Spending hours to take original pictures only to discover that the film was left out of the cam- era, working desperately to make a picture fit the hole in a layout, rushing at the last minute to meet a deadline, were the ordinary experiences of our annual staff. Hard work and originality are two key factors in the success of a yearbook, and both were pre- sent this year. The staff strove to magnify those fundamentals of annual processing and journalis- tic principles mandatory in producing a book of high quality. Mary Ann Byrne, and co- editors Morgan Dunn.

STANDING: Mimi Danko, Belinda McCamy, Karen Lau, Marilyn Goldman, Kathy Sykora. and Mary Margaret Hernandez. A school paper is said to reveal the personality of the school. The NA CHATS Staff tries to make this their goal. The staff realizes also that communication is one of the bases for growth and, therefore, reports news on a variety of top- ics. From educational changes to personal opinion, the CHATS keeps the students abreast of the times. Another journalistic achieve- ment at NA is the Literary Maga- zine. Short stories, editorials, po- ems, and plays make an interesting edition of this magazine. The Literary Magazine is compiled by, sitting, Linda Lazarin, Georganne Joseph, Pam Brown, Sherry Huegle. STANDING: Chris Buckert, Rosemary DeLire, Jeanne Bianchi, De- nise Totah, Linda Hone, and Rachel Hrabovsky. Si The excellence of the BLUE and WHITE results from the work of several dedicated people. There is no regular journalism class so the outcome of the newspaper re- quires their own time and patience. By combining their ideas and ini- tiative, they edit a paper which pro- vides meaningful subject matter which will affect its readers both now and in the future. Reporters Tim Holcomh, Jerry Ondrias, Mike Kohutek, and John Bode work together to compile the data attained from the various St. Joe events.

Through this organization the opin- ions of every person in the student body is voiced. The Council undertakes one ma- jor project a year, as this year ' s candy sale. The annual Valentine Dance is also sponsored by this or- ganization. All prcxeeds are put to use in replacing facilities, moderni- zing the atmosphere, or just buying a remembrance for the faculty. The Council encourages individ- uality as well as mutual concern. Without this central body there would be no focal point, no base, and no foundation.

The Student Council is the cen- ter of most of the activity on the St. Joe campus. The members, elected from each class, strive to voice the opinions of everyone in the student body. The council, a member of the Central Gulf Coast Association of Student Councils, attends conven- tions in the spring and fall.

The mood is tense, excited, and, most of all. spirited. It ' s a time when the football team reaches for a goal they feel they must attain. A time when each queen nominee can ' t wait for halftime. And, of course, a time when the junior class wants only the biggest bonfire and the best dance. Every one of us can look back on that time of the season with pride and satisfaction. The Flyers reached their goal, the DISTRICT CROWN, by a margin of 63-0. Mary Seger was awarded her crown as Homecoming Queen. The bon- fire flamed as high as the spirit and enthusiasm of everyone, and the dance was a celebration of the very best time of the year.

The Prom, sponsored by the junior class, and the Valentine Dance, sponsored by the Student Council, are the biggest events of the season. At these dances various themes are carried out which take a lot of time and preparation. A king for the Prom is voted up- on by the NA seniors just as the queen is chosen by the senior boys at St. Joseph. The court is nomi- nated by the rest of the student body. Every junior combines his talents and ideas to make the dance for the graduates a memorable one.

Once received it it represents four years of achievement.

I n the Mass Father Leopold reminds everyone of the Loving Divinity. This year all the students have a chance to actually participate in the celebrating the Mass. A different class prepares the Liturgy each week. The students volunteer to read the gospel, the epistle, com- pose a prayer of the faithful, and choose hymns for the Mass.

Since teaching methods can be learned on- ly through actual experience, two days of the school year are set aside on which FTA mem- bers take over the classroom duties. Attending the annual state convention is another important function of the FTA. This year ' s meeting was in Fort Worth. The state meet is valuable because it enables members to see what other chapters are doing. It also points out the latest advances in the teach- ing profession.

This re- living is held on the steps of Saint Mary ' s Church on one of the nights preceding Christ- mas. This nativity scene is endearing to all who see it, and the witnesses come from all around. It helps people to step back from all the last minute Christmas rush to think that God sent His only Son, Jesus, to earth in the form of a new born babe — His only Son who was later to be crucified to redeem us from sin. Mrs. DeLane, library memorial chairman; Mrs. Latimer, vice-president; Mrs. Truman, president; Mrs. Rech, treasurer; and Mrs. Jordan, secre- tary; are officers of the 1969-1970 PTA. Mothers Sponsor Projects The PTA helps the school through various activities. The Fall Festival is the main pro- ject of this organization. Every year it not only succeeds in raising money for needed items but it provides fun and relaxation for adults as well as students. The Piloteer Mothers Club lends a helping hand to the Piloteers of Nazareth. This group of mothers sponsors projects to raise money for bus trips to out-of-town games and run the concession stands. To these mothers the girls owe a great deal because without them many things would be impossible. Board Members Mrs. Vogt. Mrs. Bianchi. Mrs. McSpaddin. Mrs. Janda, Mrs. Suther- land, Mrs. DeLane, and Mrs. Jordan have done more than their part in serving at the concession stands during many football games. Mrs. Jurica, treasurer; Mrs. Velasquez, vice-president; Mrs. Franke. president; and Mrs. Schroeder, secretary; officers of the Piloteer Mothers Club, figure the amount of money left from the preceding year. -33 Parent ' s Clubs Lend Vital Support The Mother ' s Club officers are Mrs. C. Blank, treasurer; Mrs. D. Kohutek. vice-president: Mrs. F. Niesner. secretary; Mrs. R. Fo.x, corresponding secretary; and Mrs. R. Cullen, president. Mrs. Wearden helps out at one of the many Mother ' s Club projects. Mr. Pittman finds time to collect the tickets at a game, one of the numerous jobs that the Father ' s C lub takes pride m doing. The Father ' s Club officers are Mr. Bob Latimer, president; Mr. Milton Gohlke, treasurer; Mr. Richard Jordan, secretary. The support which the Father ' s and Mother ' s Clubs contribute to the vitality of St. Joe ' s is so varied that it is almost im- possible to capture in pictures or words. This support is manifested in many ways: raising of funds for e.xtra-curricular activ- ities, outstanding support for our athletic teams and the Flyer Band, and the contri- butions for the library. These are but a few of the many ways in which their interest is made visible. Custodians Keep Our Schools in Shape Mrs. Munsch, Mrs. Nevlud, and Mrs. Mares seem happy and willing to serve at St. Joe. Mr. Brosch faithfully keeps N. A. in great shape. There are always silent and unnoticed means by which life is made plea- sant. The concern of our custodians is no exception here. At St. Joseph and Nazareth, nine individuals assume the responsibility of cooking, serving, sweep- ping, cleaning, and repair- ing. We, the students, wish to say Thank-you to you who have made our life at school very delightful. Meals at Nazareth are taken care of by Mrs. Brosch, Mrs. Valdez, and Sister Catherine (not pictured).

Journeying to San Anto- nio on September 3, they took on the St. Anthony Yellowjackets. This is a return match of an en- counter that was played to a score- less deadlock only a year earlier. This time the Flyers set a few things straight for their followers Mike Miori attempts to go around end while Robby Halepeska, Manuel Rossett, and Owen Thibodeaux lead the interference.

In the second encounter of the season, the Flyers traveled to Bloo- mington to try their neighboring archrivals, only to come up on the short end, 14-0. Tackle Rudy Ozuna is led on- to the field by cheerleader Cindy Patek preceeding the Bloomington game. Owen Thibodeaux receives a crushing tackle during the Bloomington game.

Flyers Beat San Bouncing back a week later, the St. Joe 11 took on the San Marcos Bears in a daytime match in San Marcos. Putting together a tough defense with a powerful of- fense, the Flyers emerged a 22-8 victor. The following week the Flyers took on the No. 10 ranked Ganado The Flyer defense shows its ability Marcos, Lose to Ganado Indians in their first home game. The Flyers put on a tremendous show in the first half only to be whipped in the second half and bow to the Indians 44-3. The Fly- ers lost the services of several key players in this game, the most seri- ous of which was Gary Motal who received a severe head injury. Even the referee was fooled by this play. Jeff Latimer shows great second effort against the Industrial Cobras. Injuries Mount, After raking in a pass, Al- bert Humphrey tries to shake a tackier as he strives for extra yardage. Riddled by a multitude of key injuries, The Fighting Flyers took on the Industrial Cobras in their fifth game. Af- ter 48 minutes of hard hitting action, the Flyers retired as a 20-7 loser. The following week, the Flyers traveled to El Maton to challenge the Tidehaven Tigers. Still besieged with injuries, the Flyers planned a tough game. However, injuries immedi- ately set in and the Flyers were trounced, 39-0. In their tlnal non-district game of the season, the Fly- ers battled Van Vleck. The Flyers put on a tremendous show before surrendering in the end, 20-12.

Maul Yoakum, 63-0 for District 2-AA Crown apply a crushing tackle to a Bishop Forest player as other Flyers Following a discouraging 8-6 loss to th e Sa- cred Heart Indians and a 22-15 victory over the Bishop Forest Rangers, The Fighting Flyers left no doubt as to who should represent Dist. 2-AA of the TCIL. They demolished Yoakum St. Jo- esph, 63-0 for the district title. The Flyers unleashed a tremendous offensive show with Mark Pahmiyer and Jeff Latimer each scoring three touchdowns. Manuel Rossett and Robbie Halepeska each tossed two touchdown passes. The major reason for the tremendous ex- citement over the victory was that the winner of this game took the district crown. The Flyer de- fense prevented a Yoakum win by holding the usually high scoring Tigers scoreless. The Bishop Forest game was like the Flyer-Ti- ger game on a lesser scale — the loser would be eliminated from the district race. The Flyers again met the challenge and emerged a 22-15 victor. The preceeding week the Flyers had drop- ped a contest in which the only statistic in which they trailed was the score. This loss, however, seemed to mold the team into the state finalist thev were to become. Bi-District Crown On a cold and wet autumn night, The Fighting Flyers combined teamwork and desire to come from behind twice and edge the Laredo St. Joseph Antlers, 13-12 in a bi-district clash. The victory qualified the Flyers for a berth in the state championship game. The Flyer defense, led by Owen Thibodeaux, who blocked two punts, and Rudy Ozuna, held the Antlers scoreless until late in the second quarter. The score at the half was 6-0. The Flyer offense, led by junior quarterback Robbie Halepeska, came alive in the second half while the Flyer defense remained stingy. The Flyers scored with an 18 yard pass from Halepeska to Mark Pahmiyer, conversion points, a safety, and Mike Miori ' s game win- ning field goal. Laredo also tallied six. The Flyers, however, rose to the occasion and emerged a 13-12 victor.

Entering the game with an unspectacular 5-6 season slate, the Flyers fought like the great team they were before bowing to the Fred- ricksburg St. Mary Indians, 18-6. The Flyers struck on the first play from scrim- mage when Robbie Halepeska hit Mark Pahmiyer with a 60 yard touchdown pass for the Flyers first and only score. St. Mary ' s came back to score two touchdowns in the first half and took a 12-6 lead to the showers. In the second half, both team ' s defenses toughened up with the only score coming at the end of a 36 yard march by the Indians. Even though the Flyers lost the ball game, they proved one thing to everyone — a team ' s season record is not always truly representative of a team ' s ability.

As a special rec- ognition of their superior grade achievements, these girls are pre- sented to you first. Morgan Dunn, a sincere and enthusias- tic senior, exhibits her capability to lead as head cheerleader and president of the National Honor Society. She has proven her ability and responsibility as co-editor of the yearbook. Her active interest in community projects was re- warded by the DAR Good Citizenship Award. of Fame Miiry St ' ger. an active individual, has participated in many groups and or- ganizations during her high school years. Her friendliness and out-going person- ality won for her the title of Homecom- ing Queen. Mary served as cheerleader in her senior year and strove earnestly to keep that FLYER spirit alive. Tern- Vittarreal is a quiet pensive stu- dent. Her strong convictions and de- pendability have gained her the respect of all her classmates. She was elected president of her junior class. Many pro- jects, such as the prom, would not have been as successful without her. The Hall of Fame members are true examples of years of work for perfection. They excel not only in scholastic achievement, but also in leadership, dependability, loyalty, sincerity, popularity, and courtesy. Their accomplishments are a re- flection of their home lives and their Catholic education.

What mo- tivated us? The realization that we were immortaliz- ing the 1969-70 school year. As we travel the far- reaching roads of life, we leave this book behind as a record of our successes, failures, victories, and defeats. We want to give special thanks to our moderators, Sr. Boreia and Fr. Ramirez, and to our staff who nev- ver failed us when we needed them. We would also like to recognize Mr. Herbert Doud, Mr. Grant Rice of Inter-Collegiate Press, and all our sponsors and patrons who helped make this annual possible. We shall continue to strive EVER UPWARD to- wards our goals, but we now leave the 1970 Excelsior as a commemoration of this year. Mary Ann, Morgan, Pat, Beth, and Mike This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. It is rather the end of the beginning. — Winston Churchill f i m : f ' - V-J ' W ' . ' ' vii;: L V ' -. -  i -i; ry-A ;. ' r -Sis;; ' -2 ' ' Z ic Li 1 •J
