• rv w CAMFEL Presents ' Voices ' A jungle of voices exists out there. Positive voices instruct, praise, and in- form. Negative voices are destructive, tear down, and lead astray. The choice of what set of voices to follow is one that is personal. The 1986 CAMFEL production, enti- tled Voices, was a multi-media pre- sentation using music, still photos, and videos. This year ' s theme was an ef- fective reminder to many St. Joe stu- dents. Senior Mike Garatoni said, I liked the presentation. It was very well done. We ' ve all heard the message be- fore, but I don ' t think we can hear it enough. Each October, Mr. Rousey reviews and critiques the current year ' s pro- duction at the Indiana School Adminis- trators Conference. If he decides it applies to St. Joe, then he invites CAM- FEL to give their presentation. Mr. Rousey said, The CAMFEL production accomplishes two objectives. It is an assembly that students enjoy because it deals with current issues through popular music, television, and films. Also, each of the performances is de- signed with a particular theme. I feel very strongly that since students en- joy it, it is an effective means by which to convey a worthwhile mes- sage. When Mr. Rousey was Vice Principal in Santa Monica, California, CAMFEL was an organization that operated pri- marily in Southern California. When he came to St. Joseph ' s he checked the practicality of having the CAMFEL group put on its show here. After CAMFEL expanded their operations to the Midwest, they began coming to St. Joe. Although the messages are simplis- tic, common sense sometimes needs to be taught. Senior Grace Conley said, The message wasn ' t a spectacular revelation but I guess it was a nice idea. Others had even stronger feel- ings, as Rob Thomas added, The mes- sage put across touched everyone in some special way. CAMFEL ' s 1986 production Voices was an effective and enjoyable event. An Effective Message I thought it was an excellent and effective use of emotion and facts to realize the seriousness of the problem of drugs and alcohol in our St. Joe com- munity, said senior Louis Anthes. These words have been used to de- scribe Jerry Johnston and his national- ly-acclaimed LIFE presentation on drug and alcohol abuse and teenage suicide. Through the efforts of St. Joe ' s SADD chapter and Mr. Weil, Jerry Johnston was brought to St. Joe to speak to the student body. SADD moderator Mrs. George said, Jerry Johnston trans- mits an attitude of compassion and concern. m Jerry Johnston spoke ot his personal lences witli lirugs. •xper- CAMFEL S Jerry Johnson 27

St. Joe Lets Loose This year the basketball spirit week underwent a dramatic change. Insted of the format used during football sea- son, the whole school participated each day, dressing up for the given theme. The themes this year were, Hats and Sunglasses Day, Back- wards Day , Bright Day , Dress up Day , and Blue and White Day . While students could dress for each day, most had their favorites. For ex- ample. Senior Craig VanRenterghem liked Dress-up Day , saying, it gave me a chance to look like only I can. The purpose of the new design was to promote school unity by encouraging the whole school to dress up. In the end the spirit week was a success, or as Senior John Coglianese put it — We really let loose this year. Heidi Hengesbach doesn ' t seem to know if she ' s coming or going on Backwards Pay.
