French, Typing, Morality, and U.S. His- tory are also among Steve ' s classes. To complete the day, Steve goes to wrestling prac- tice to increase his agility. A Day In The Life 15

A Day At St. Joe The day begins much the same for St. Joe students; painfully forcing ourselves out of the warm security of our beds. By some miracle, we then manage to make ourselves pre- sentable and transport our bodies to school. Attending classes occupies a major- ity of our time, but by no means a majority of our attention. Even so, we manage to work our way through classes with our eyes focused on the distant time of 3:00. Lunch offers the only escape during the day. It ' s a break for our minds, if not our bodies. Activities such as sports, band, clubs and social activities, often keep stu- dents from arriving and leaving school at a respectable hour. School is often active from 6 a.m., when sports teams start arriving for prac- tice, until midnight, when dances end. Steve works out with Pete Agostino to im- prove his wrestling skills. Even Edith Bunker could get Br. Leo ' s hint that Steve couldn ' t get. Steve and Carolyn VanBergen enjoy a slower dance at the Sadie Hawkins Steve sips on a milkshake, filling his body with nutrients in order to survive the rest of his classes. 14 A Day In The Life

Traditions Remain Firm The changing fall colors and cool temperatures provided the set- ting for the 1978 Saint Joseph ' s Homecoming, held on September 23. Jackson Field furnished the location for the football game, at- tended by several hundred die- hard St. Joe fans. The Indians fell to the LaPorte Slicers by a score of 14 to 12, bringing their record to 0-5. The halftime festivities included the traditional float contest, with the freshmen coming out the whin- ners with a float commemorating St. Joe ' s silver anniversary. The student-elected court included Janice DeLeu (queen), escorted by Dan Huber; Beth Healy, es- corted by Pete Agostino; Tammy Klimek, escorted by Chris Blan- chard; Sue Miller, escorted Tom Bolka; Marcia Nelson, escorted by Greg Nash; Susan Valdiserri, escorted by John Suddes; and Barb Wendt, escorted by Dave Mclnerny. Following the game, Indian fans flocked to the St. Joe gym in or- der to attend the annual Home- coming dance. Disco music was provided by a Ball State Universi- ty disc jockey, and the senior class sponsored the evening ' s ac- tivities. J i3t-jr iv,i J ■ ' ,.

With the LaPorte fans and bench looking on, the Indian offense, led by Matt Toman, sets up for its next play. A giant birthday cake adorns the freshman homecoming float, which captured the Spirit Jug. Frosh cheerleaders Penny Carter, Anne McNeill, Trice Rose, and Mary Kenny travel on the float. 16 Football Homecoming
