This new lifestyle and its changes are focused upon by the Shamrock 7987, which itself, has a new style and look. Perhaps the most obvious change this year was a new class schedule, in which all classes were short- ened to 45 minutes and a 25 minute homeroom! study period was positioned in the middle of the school day. This short period not only allowed time for study, but also permitted the playing of intramu- ral games. ln years past, the intramural program wasn't very successful because it lacked student involvement. Students simply didn't want to participate in games before and after school. With the new available time, however, all students had the opportunity to take part in the intramural program. Those home- room members not participating were allowed to share in the enthusiasm of their HR. teams as spec- tators. Because the intramural program played such an integral part in the students' lives, it required full time attention. To provide this attention, Mr. Wil- liam Sienkiewicz volunteered to handle the program as intramural coordinator and Student Council co- moderator. Our Student Council received not only a third moderator, but also an entire facelift. The entire general assembly of homeroom representatives was eliminated, and a new student Senate was formed. Each of the four classes elected five mem- bers of their class to represent them in this Senate.

Although everyone knew that Bro. Neil became the new principal at St. Pat's, most were unaware of the new responsibilities that other faculty members acquired. Mr. Presslak became moderator of the Freshman Class, while Mr. Hayes moderated the Sophomores. Bro. Anthony took charge of voca- tions, so that more emphasis could be placed on this important area of Christianity, while Bro. David Calinski devoted his time to the recruitment of sev- enth and eighth graders who are interested in , attending St. Patrick. junior Counselor, Bro. David Pieters assumed co-moderator's responsibilities of the St. Patrick Parents' Club, joining Brother Peter Donlan in helping with the operation of this Club. Among other changes for this year, our own cheerleaders received a new set of newly designed i uniforms, intended to improve their visual presenta- i tion. As you flip through these pages of pictorial his- tory, you will also notice a new visual presentation designed to increase appeal and interest. '. 'ri .eg gd? lguy lu pawn!

Opening f 5 'Q tudem LI XJ X We Z Celebrating 300 Among the many changes that have taken place in our school this year is the new double assembly schedule. The first opportunity to use this schedule was for an excerpt from a performance entitled, l'Brothers in Concert. This performance also gave the St. Pat's community a chance to experience a cultural event early in the year. 'Brothers in Concert was performed Brothers. a well deserved round of applause. by Bro. Laurence Walther, FSC, Chairman of the Department of Music at St. Mary's College in Winona, Minnesota, and Bro. Vincent Malham, FSC, Director of the music program at Christian Brothers' Col- lege in Memphis, Tennessee. This mini-con- cert also gave two seniors, Steve Shreiner and Bill Egan, a chance to display their musi- cal abilities by singing Billy loel's lllt's Still Rock And Roll To Me.

Valiant Efforts Fail 4- A ,., Despite unfortunate results, this year's Homecoming Came at Hanson Stadium once again displayed a valiant effort by our football team. Although our team held Marist scoreless through the first half, Mar- ist retaliated in the third and fourth quar- ters. One highlight of the game was a 78 yard kickoff return by Mickey McGuire bringing the ball to the 22 yard line, Though failing to score, our team picked up its only points with a safety. During this game, Mike Bersani led the defense with 6 tackles while Kevin Gregory and lohn Haniacek aided the defense with 5 and 4 tackles respectively.

Because of the celebration of Columbus Day on Monday, Homecoming Week officially opened with Grub Day on Tuesday. Students were allowed to wear jeans, gym shoes, hats, and rock T-shirts during the school day. Wednesday brought the students an opportunity to do something that they normally do not get to do: throw pies fshaving cream on a spongel at their favorite teachers. Bro. Anthony, Bro. Kevin, Mr. Collins, and Dean Schmidt willingly sacrificed their faces to the flying shaving cream pies thrown by their loyal admirers, The next day's homecoming events brought us into the school cafeteria. Instead of the traditional Ice Cream Social, which normally takes place, the Student Council sponsored a different kind of social, called the Sub-Pub. There, nine inch submarine sandwiches were sold, along with other refreshments. Here, also, the Battle of Guitarists took place in which St. Pat's best guitarists com- peted for a twenty-five dollar first prize. Faculty members heard and voted on the ,best guitarist and decided that Mike Yates was the win- 10 ! Student Life fcontinued on next pagej Qi, Q- ...E Wi. f X fqnpf U--X '---- - 1 .. . -.

' gyky X Seniors Find Themselves 'tak The Senior coed retreat with girls from Nazareth High School differed in style from the lunior retreats which all St. Pat's students must attend. The theme of the Senior program was finding oneself through self-evaluation and understanding others. The retreat also consisted of small group sessions, main- taining a journal, and special dy-ad conversation sessions. All of this took place at the Christian Brothers' La Salle Manor in Plano, Illinois. The solitude and easy-going atmosphere at Plano make it a perfect retreat hide-away. Along with the spiritual parts of the retreat, there are numerous facilities for recrea- tion there. Since the weather was pleasant for both retreats, students were able to enjoy hiking, swimming, tennis, and football. When indoors, retreaters could play pool, ping-pong, and other games such as chess and monopoly. It was during spiritual experiences such as these that the members of the retreat were able to grow spiritually and mentally.

Parents' Club, two Las Vegas Nights were held each semester in the gym which was festively decorated to give the effect of a gambling casino. With the support of moderators Bro, David Pieters and Bro. Peter Donlan, parents and mem- bers ofthe faculty volunteered their time to deal cards or help out in a variety of other ways. Each weekend was attended by capacity crowds, enabling the Parents' Club to garner sufficient funds for their treasury, permitting them to continue in their generous support of Saint Pat- rick HS. The efforts of these weekends allowed the club to pay for the new central air conditioning system that was installed in the gym over the past summer, as well as to help out with other necessary improvements.

Student Life f I5 The Boyzz: A Rockin' Success Hours of work and careful planning by the Stu- dent Council resulted in a special visit from The Boyzz, The chief coordinators of this event were Mike Dolatowski and Ed Heidberger, with the guid- ance ofthe Student Council Moderators. The Boyzz, having previously produced two albums and played in many Chicago rock clubs, drew a crowd of about 750 enthusiastic fans from St, Pat's and neighboring high schools. Included in the concert as special effects were white fog, fire works, colorful lighting and plenty of rock and roll. Top Left: The lead guitarist of The Boyzz does a solo stint for the fans.

All the juniors attended their two day retreat at LaSalle Manor in Plano, Illinois. This retreat took them away from the hustle and bustle of the city and gave them a chance to look at life from different perspec- tives. The retreatants were given the opportunity to analyze the road they want to follow in life through numerous large and small group discussions. The climax of the retreat was the journey, a deep and unforgettable meditation, where the participants saw God and truly found themselves. The huge and serene area of LaSalle Manor, which is run by the Christian Brothers, provides the perfect atmosphere fulfilling the pur- pose ofthe retreat. The freshman and sophomore retreats, which are held at the Cabrini Contact Center, were very similar. Like the junior retreats, the frosh-soph retreats consisted of large and small group discussions. Under the direction of Mr. Bill Easton and with the help of several upperclassman aides, the freshmen and sophomores discovered that they are all lovable and capable. 126: .K 1 pi 1 lf ,cE,.5' ha Showing Spirit ln order to create the proper spirit and pride for our school's athletic teams, the Student Council introduced Spirit Week. On Monday, Spirit Week began with Spirit Assemblies aimed at honoring athletes of our basketball, wrestling and swimming teams. These assemblies were held during second and third periods and were run by Mr. Niall Collins and Mike Dolatowski. On Tuesday, students were allowed to wear any type of shirt displaying the name St. Patrick. Athletes wore their jerseys and other students were allowed to wear their gym shirts. The week continued with Wednesdays Student vs. Facul- ty basketball game. Teachers were encouraged to allow their sixth and seventh period classes to watch this exciting event in the gym. ln the end, to the disap- pointment of the students, the faculty won with a score of 56-51. Thursday saw the students competing against each other in an Arm Wrestling contest. This event was open to all juniors and Seniors who wished to participate. The Senior Champions were Mike Biancalana and Luciano Orta, while the lunior winners were Peter Doyle and loe Marbach. Friday's 69-52 basketball victory over St. Viator proved that the spirit built up during the week was not lost. After Mike Broderick's 34 point game, all were invited to the cafeteria, where, for one dollar, they received a soda and were entertained by the rock band Dionysus.

Although the tradition of Ring Masses dates back a long time in St. Pat's history, it has, in recent years, not been followed. The custom was successfully re-adopted in 1980 and, once again, made a permanent St. Pat's tradition. The mass, which was held in our gym on March 11 in the evening, was attended by a ma- jority of juniors and their families. During the mass the significance of the rings was explained and the rings were bless- ed. After the ceremony and the ring distribution, everyone was invited to a small reception in the cafeteria, vvhere the Parents' Club served refreshments.

Pablo Basterrechea F.S.C., Superior General of the Brothers, toured the United States stopping at many of the Brothers' schools. During this tour, Brother, who resides in Rome, made several stops in Chicago. His first stop in Chicago was on Monday, Feb. 23 at De La Salle H.S., where he and john Cardinal Cody were the guests at an assembly. During this assembly, Cardinal Cody received a plaque for his assistance to the Christian Brothers, and Bro. Pablo received a check for 55,000 to be used for the needy people of developing countries. Tuesday was the day that Bro. Pablo visited the St. Patrick H.S. community. Here, he met with the Administration, members of the Religion Department, some of the lay facul- ty, the Brothers and the Executive Board of the Student Council in closed sessions. He had mostly positive comments, but included a few suggested improvements. On Wednesday, a mass vvas held at Holy Name Cathedral for the Christian Brothers. Along with Bro. Pablo, all members of the St. Patrick's Community were invited to attend. Previously, Mayor lane Byrne had proclaimed Wednesday, Feb. 25th as l'Christian Brothers Day in Chicago and, as a result, Thursday was declared a holiday in honor of the founder of the Christian Brothers, lohn Baptiste De La Salle. Student Life X 21 Z7 f Student Life g Stressing Spiritual Crowth Because of the stress placed upon Religious education at St. Pat's, the student is provided with the perfect atmosphere for spiritual development. To facilitate this, the Religion Department sponsors a number of religious activities for the student to attend during the school year. In the beginning of the year, a Mass of the Holy Spirit was held. The main pur- pose of this mass, as its title suggests, was to ask the help of the Holy Spirit in the coming school year. As November approached and Thanksgiving came around, we thanked Cod for his many gifts at mass. The emphasis of this celebration was to make each student aware of all that Cod had given him and to encourage him to offer an expression of thanks to Him. The Religion Department also encouraged students to participate in other liturgical services. On Ash Wednesday, ashes were distributed in a special liturgy designed to emphasize the meaning of Lent. ln the weeks of Lent that followed, a week was set aside to contemplate vocations. The highpoint of this week was a mass dealing with the theme of vocations. The guest speaker at the mass, Bob Thomas of the Chicago Bears, was invited to speak to the students about his vocation as a Christian athlete and vocations in general. At the end of the Seniors' 4 years, while they were preparing for graduation, they gathered together for one last mass. Entitled The Senior Mass of Thanksgiv- ing, it was intended to help the graduates reflect on their last four years and to thank God for the learning and growth that took place. an Top: Bob Thomas of the Chicago Bears speaks to the students assembled at the Vocation Mass.

The 246 pints of blood collected on March 11, 1981 set a new record for the annual blood drive co- sponsored by the Medical Careers Club and the United Blood Services. This year's total surpassed the 1980 record collection of 196 pints. The St. Patrick High School Blood Assurance Program was coordinated by Mr. Bert Welker, Co-Chairmen senior Ken Zell and junior Harold Grant. The Blood Assurance Program guarantees free blood for any member of the St, Patrick family and their immediate relatives for one year, The recruitment for blood donors started with an assembly run by Mr. Welker and the members of the Medical Careers Club. The success of the blood drive was attributed to this assembly and other efforts, such as a vigorous poster campaign. The seven year campaign has netted a grand total of 1,271 pints. 24 X Student Life Top Left: While Senior Rick Herrick looks on, two UBS nurses prepare for the next donor.

Entertainment at Its Best One of the many new and exciting events that occurred at St. Pat's this year was a Bears-Faculty basketball game. In this game a few members of the Chicago Bears Foot- ball Team played a game of basketball against a few select members of our very own faculty. During the game the Bears entertained the crowd with some comical plays and humorous words. The Bears also had some fun with the many children in the crowd. At one point in the game Mr. Buscarini, the referee, and one of the Bears decided to change roles causing roaring laughter from the bleachers. To top off the occasion, two Honeybears joined to cheer on their team. This event was extremely successful drawing a crowd of over one thousand.

For the first time in St. Pat's history, the Thespian Society spon- sored a Spring Renaissance Festival. Held in the student courtyard on the evenings of May 15th, 16th, and 17th, the performances consisted of a series of single acts drawn from the plays of Shakespeare. Intended to highlight the variety of moods and con- flicts exhibited by Shakespeare, the approximately 40 actors demonstrated their skills before the receptive audiences on the three nights. The program was a prime example of the high level of cooperation at St. Pat's between faculty and students. Setting the atmosphere for the middle ages were jugglers, minstrels and jesters under the supervision and guidance of Messrs. Zimmerman and Stephenson. The entire program was developed and produced by Chief Director lack Nelson with the assistance of Ms. Worcester, Messrs. Stephenson, Zimmerman, and Lithgow, with each directing at least one segment of the production. 28 .f Student Lite Other faculty members helped in a variety of ways: Messrs. Hayes and Venegoni served as narrators, Miss Hart and Mrs. LaLonde prepared the costumes. Bro. David Pieters helped in preparation of the performing area, while Mr. Wilkens provided special electrical lines to handle the lighting which was facilitated by Mr. Quinn. lim Duda supervised the lighting, Mike Dolatowski, Joe Wisniewski and Rich Kackowski served as festival entertainers and a variety of other students helped out as ushers. Drawing one or two scenes from each of the following plays: Macbeth, The Tempest, The Merchant of Venice, Romeo and Juliet, Henry ld The Taming of the Shrew, and A Midsummer Nights Dream, the festival gave insight into the talent of Shakespeare and a variety of ways that he portrayed the many moods of man. To culminate the festival, Sunday night's finale had a faculty cast in A Midsummer Nights Dream, which greatly enter- tained the participants and spectators. Xl.

The intramural athletes com- I peted during their study periods, a time which gave the homeroom + fans an opportunity to cheer on a victory for their homeroom team. The new schedule better suited the entire student body because during last year's program, the games were being played before and after school, which made it difficult for many to participate. Mr. William Sienkiewicz, moderator of this program, refereed the foot- ball, basketball, and hockey, the three sports in which the students competed. Several athletes and other students helped referee the if games. 1 Football: Senior H.R. 307 3 30 X Student Life Nh 2, J, :Qs wi, Nl MW 63' -..iQ iwgsnw V Program Provides Participation , .

Central. The junior-Senior league, which had eight teams and four members on a team, had the highest average bowler, Peter Fontanetta, who averaged 183. The first place team of Dan LaBelle, lohn Sarli, and Pete and Vic Fontanetta fought their way to the first place spot by recording 49 victories to their name. By being the first place team, they were entitled to receive trophies. Although the other teams didn't receive trophies, they ac- cepted some kind of monetary prize. Mark Schley, Steve Schroeder, loe Pacion,Tom Philbin, and Mark Wilford won enough matches to take first place in their division. Towards the end of the year, a select group of teachers and students knocked heads and took it to the lanes to see who would become the victor. The students walked away that afternoon with smiles on their faces after taking the first two games and only losing the third by a pin. The student's victories were aided by games of 233 by Pete Fontanetta, 222 by Dan LaBelle, and 228 by Vic Fontanetta.

Unlike other years, where the ceremony was held in the Main Lobby on a week night, this year's ceremony was held in the cafeteria on a Sunday afternoon. The large area of the cafeteria better accommodated the parents and guests. The ceremony began with the processional of the inductees and a short welcoming speech by Mr. Paul Quinn, the moderator of the Honor Societies. President Bill Stanc- zykiewicz, who conducted the ceremony, explained the four qualities, scholarship, leadership, service, and character, that are required to be selected into the organization. The lighting of candles and the presentation of the NJHSXNHS insignia are symbolic of these four necessary qualities. Kevin Caruso, last year's President of the SPHS NHS addressed and congratulated the gathered inductees and their guests. Bro. Neil Kieffe also added a few words of congratulations to the inductees for be- ing the select group chosen into such an esteemed organization. E its S i i it .. - if N tsr illi S ' WY . i:,,, jg t...

Another honor that is bestowed on one student each year is the Bausch and Lomb science award. In order to receive this honor a stu- dent must be nominated by the faculty because of his outstanding achievement in science courses and his plans to continue in a science-oriented career. The Alumni Association Award winners are also decided upon by the faculty. These are given to students for their work in the areas of Scholarship, Loyalty, Athletics, and participation in extra- curricular activities. Also in conjunction with these are awards which are not based on academic achievement or school dedication. The first of these is the Mark Q. Cummings Award which is presented to an athlete who overcomes personal difficulties and best emulates the spirit of the late Mark Q. Cummings. Secondly the lohn M. McCor- mack Memorial Scholarship Award is presented to a student who comes from a middle or lower in- come family and must pay his own tuition.

The ceremony began with the procession of graduates and faculty, the National Anthem, and the invocation, which was administered by Bro. Kevin. Speeches were made by Mr. Rudy Presslak, who an- nounced the different honors that seniors received, Bro. Neil, whose laryngitis forced him to hand his index cards over to Mr. Kokosinski, ludge john I. Hogan, who spoke for the alumni, and Eric Kindahl, the valedictorian. When their names were individually announced by Mr. Presslak, the graduates made their way across the Arie Crown stage. They received their diplomas and certificates of appreciation from Bro.

Equipment was collected at the end of each game to be used for the team's next contest. The equip- ment manager also vvashed and took care of the uniforms.

From the beginning of the season, the varsi- ty football team had fate against it. Although the team had talent, the setbacks were over- powering. The squad suffered major injuries to key players. Luck was against the Shamrock eleven as the big play did not materialize when needed and, therefore, the gridmen lost several close games. The squad provided several bright spots throughout the season. The strong passing game of Mike Carpinelli and the tough Shamrock defense gave the fans much excite- ment. Russ Lucas was named to the All Con- ference first team, while Bob Kohlndorfer, Don Powrozek and Mickey McGuire were announced to the second team. The squad had many strong juniors who gave much promise for the future. Sports X 45 1 i Sophomores Show Team ork i Top Right: Sophomore Team: 'lst Row: M. Don- nelly, N. Howard, 1. O'Donnel, T.

The 1980 Sophomore team underwent numerous changes and en- countered many challenges. Perhaps the most significant change was the coaching staff, which consisted of Tom Mahoney and Mike Egan. The Sophomore squad had quite a challenge to encounter because the entire team was made up of only 25 players. lt would have been disastrous if the team had lost any more athletes. Because of this inflexibility, the team had to settle for a disappointing 2-6 season record. Gene Smith and Pat Gibbons were nominated M.V.P. for their offensive performance, while Pat Mclnerney earned the award for his defensive guidance. Despite the scores the sophomores showed a tremendous amount of leadership, experience, and teamwork. 46 X Sports ,. , V f ,, ,ink .,,,- ,. ,L .

The Varsity Shamrock Wrestlers began the season with several returning lettermen, and therefore the outlook of the season was bright. But soon after the season began many of these ex- perienced athletes left the team for various reasons, Also many injuries were suffered in the course of the season. Despite the many setbacks, one Shamrock wrestler came through and helped keep the team in contention throughout the season. Mike Bersani, the captain and leader of the team, showed his qualities as a leader by help- ing to develop the new inexperienced wrestlers. Also in the conference meet he took first place in his weight class. Another wrestler, loe Fiandaca, finished high in conference and would have received better than his 3rd place, but having received a head injury during the meet he was unable to compete in the final. With these difficulties, the varsity wrestlers finished the season with a 7- 13 record and 5th place in conference. 52 X Sports l 5. mf. 7 ,,,, iz. . ,,,,...

St. Patrick was not seeded amongst the top four teams and many felt that St. Pat's would not go past the first round. However, the Shamrocks surprised everybody ex- cept themselves, ln the first game against Herrin, Mike Broderick led the team with 19 points and 8 rebounds. Mark Pytel followed with 14 points and Mike Campanaro also set a school record with 9 free throws in the fourth quarter. When the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, St. Pat's found themselves up by 20 points in a 73-53 romp. Continued below Came 2 brought the emergence of Mark Pytel, who dominated the game for the Shamrocks. Scoring 22 points, and stealing the ball 4 times against Marion, a top seeded team at the time, he led the Shamrocks to a 76-54 victory. Against Bartonville-Limestone, in game 3, Pytel again dominated, scoring 18 points to lead both teams in scoring for the second consecutive game. Other con- tributors were Len Bertolini with 15 points and Bob Kohlndorfer with 14 points. ln this game, the tough St. Pat's defense held their opponents to 45 points while scoring 59 themselves, thus earning the right to play in the championship against Murphysboro. In the Championship game, the Shamrock five again dominated their opponent, outscoring them in every quarter and holding them to only 6 points in the third quarter. Mark Pytel again led all players with 19 points, while Gene Kelly and Mike Broderick add- ed 12 apiece, Mark Pytel and Mike Broderick were named to the all tournament team.

Sports X 63 Varsity Captures First Regional Title The beginning of the year brought another baseball season around to St. Pat's. The prediction for the Varsity was not good and no one thought that the team would finish well. However they surprised everyone except themselves. The team finished in a tie for 2nd place, losing the last game to Marist which would have put them in a tie for first place, had they won. The State Playoffs followed and again the Shamrocks surprised everyone except those who had seen them play. They took the Regional Championship by beating Elmwood Park, This was the first time that the team had taken this award. tm-1 X Sports Participating in the Sectionals, they upset Evanston 5-2 and were within one game of going to the State Finals. When they fac- ed Oak Park, their incredible streak was stopped cold by an ex- traordinarily talented pitcher.

Bottom: An enthusiastic crowd listens to the Boyzz A a-,, during the Student Council Rock Concert. In order to streamline its operations, the Student Council was reorganized with a smaller number of elected representatives to deliberate matters concerning the student body. The principle of an executive board of 17 members, 3 from each year and 5 presidential aides, was maintained while the representatives-at-large, now called the Senate, was reduced to twenty members, five from each year. The executive board was intended to be the planning and organizing body, while the Senate was to be the support body, carrying information to and from their respective constituents in order to have more student input into school-wide activities. Of- ficers and Senators worked together with the guidance and inspiration of moderators: Bro. john Vietoris, Bro. Kevin Fitzgerald, and Mr. Wm. Sienkiewicz. During the year, the Student Council suc- cessfully organized two roller skating parties at Axle Roller Rink, a week of football homecoming activities, including the Semi-Formal and the homecoming parade. lt also coordinated a rock concert with the Boyzz, the spirit week for winter sports, as well as several other activities.

Some of these activities include the designing of posters and ads for other St. Patrick organizations, such as a promotional poster for the Drama Club's school play. Another ma- jor annual project that this organization undertakes is the designing of our school Christmas Card, and the composition of the verse on the inside of the card. The Art Club also sponsors an art contest that is put together only for St. Pat's students. With a little help from the administration, the club gives cash prizes to all the winners of the contest. The final major project that the club attempted was the fabrication of an altar cloth for the religion department. This altar cloth, which will be used for major masses held during the school year, was designed by Freshman Tom Fitzpatrick.

Literature, par- ticularly American and British as well as worthy writing from other lands, permeated the four year program. Finally, always conscious that St. Pat's is a Roman Catholic institution, the English Department accepted its unique potential for strengthening and clarifying Christian principles through class discus- sion and analysis of literature.

The more advanced courses of Government and American History gave the elder students an in- sight into the effect that the individual can have on his government and society. Academics Itl I Y 7 Acquiring Mathematical Skills .lpf g The general aim of the mathematics curriculum was to provide each stu- dent with the opportunity to acquire and develop mathematical skills com- mensurate with his ability. These included basic areas necessary for every- day life in our modern society, as well as topics which are fundamental for studies in a wide variety of disciplines at the college level and other technical areas. The courses covered the traditional areas of high school algebra, geometry and advanced topics from a modern viewpoint, along with introductions to other areas, such as computer science. The general aim of the computer science curriculum is to provide the student with the opportunity to acquire computer programming skills. Since computers have become more frequently used in today's society, students are made aware of the state of the art and its future and are in- troduced to BASIC or FORTRAN as a computer language. A working knowledge of this language allowed the student to solve many types of problems. Those in the course received hands on experience with the computer. 102 X Academics -xW as Top Left: Mrs. LaLonde explains the Pythagarean Theorem to her freshmen.

This was done not only in the ordinary classroom situations, but also by the use of other suitable means. The use of foreign language newspapers, magazines, word games for vocabulary building add variety to the daily language structure, while a stress on the cultural aspects of the heritage of the people being studied developed a better understanding of the elements that helped form the language. The Department of Foreign Languages offered four year sequences in French, German and Spanish. Placement into the language classes depended on the results of the freshman placement battery, and the student's personal choice. Courses were taught at a rate appropriate to the student's ability. This year, the department incorporated the use of the apple computer in running language drills in order to vary the means of developing the language skills.

Through a variety of different labs, students learned more about the environment they live in as well as the make-up of the human body. For those students who were interested in science, further courses, such as chemistry, physics, and advanced biology, were offered. These courses attempted to encourage the scientifically inclined students to .pursue their talents in a particular field. Since science plays a major role in today's complex and ever- changing world, the science department decided to update its honors program on the junior and senior level. For the juniors honors chemistry was offered. Unlike the regular chemistry classes, the honors group had to conduct more labs and learn how to use more sophisticated equipment.

Also, the department acquaints its students with general knowledge which would be useful in college, the services, or an immediate job upon graduation. 1980-1981 was not a year for many innovations for the business department. lt was a year that the department built upon innovations of the last several years. The Business Careers course went back to the extensive use of career counselors and professional representation of a wide variety of past high concerns in industry, banking, education, and business. These speakers appeared on an average of once per week. The department employed the use of electrical machines in typing classes for the first time in seven years, The Business Department employed a wide variety of teaching techniques.

Requiring self-discipline and serious study, the various courses challenged students to be reflective, self-disciplined individuals with a firm grasp of the mean- ing of their Catholic heritage. Attempting to raise the student's understanding through courses that presented solid academic content, the department also presented the opportunity to experience the faith life of the Catholic in various sacramental experiences and a four year retreat program. In addition, last year the department also incorporated Vocation Awareness Week, in order to increase the student awareness and understanding of the call to be a Christian.

More than just a program for maintaining physical fitness, it developed physical skills in the playing of games for recreation and taught sportsmanship and teamwork through participation in team sports. The Physical Education department in- corporated soccer as a sport in this year's program because of increasing popularity. 112 X Academics Instead of the Marines, the coaching staff conducted the physical fitness testing and discipline was the number one aim of the department.

A 'ig at Our Student Services provided a full range of services to help students make optimum use of the school's academic program. The staff of the center consisted of counselors, who provided con- fidential services which included help with problems such as inade- quate motivations, classroom or test difficulties, and career and college counseling. Students were able to avail of student services by signing up for an appointment before school or after lunch. ln addition Mr. Presslak met with freshmen at least twice this year in group counseling sessions and Bro.

An ap- preciation of art was developed as students studied. Many students enjoyed singing in the Concert Chorus. This course was designed to build an appreciation of music through ex- perience by means of the con- certs that were presented during the year. Fine Art courses taught better use of communication devices of the artistic world. A variety of cultural material, ancient and con- temporary, was presented, The fundamentals of Technical Drawing were offered to Freshman and Sophomore classes. The basics of lettering, measuring, duplication, and orthographic drawing taught during the first two years were covered more thoroughly during the lunior year. The subjects of dimensions, sec- tions, and auxiliary views con- tinued the Technical Drawing art on to the lunior and Senior levels.

David Galinski's recruitment program, approximately three hundred ninety eighth graders sat for the entrance examination on lanuary 10th. Organized by Bro. Patrick, the exam, which was administered over the PA system, began at 8:30 and ended at noon. With about 30 students in each room, some twenty-five faculty volunteers were involved with the actual supervision and organization. Taking this first step towards admission to Saint Pat's, the young students answered a variety of questions pertaining to math, English, reading and vocabulary.

George Fowley and Michael Ozanic, the bookstore's busiest season is in August, during the four booksale days, when a number of faculty members help out with the sales. For this occasion, the Art Room is tem- porarily converted to a stock room to store the thousands of books that are sold to the students. Not only books can be purchased, but also school supplies, jackets, sweaters, gym clothes and other paraphernalia. Freshman Wally O'Gonnor purchases an algebra book from Bro. George Fowley.

Graduating from eighth grade to first year of high school was like taking a large step backward, or so it seemed at the time. Being the youngest and most inexperienced students in the school, one had the opportunity to buy elevator passes, tickets to the lunch room, and other specials from the upperclassmen. Despite all this, the young student still had the opportunity to begin advancing forward. Freshmen were given more chances to choose their own courses and more extra-curricular activities than in eighth grade. Even though it seemed difficult to get started, it was worth the effort, because the freshmen had an excellent chance to grow and to develop their minds and bodies in the St. Pat's tradition. Freshmen Bob Burke and George Gottmann help out the counselors by assembling information packets regarding Law Enforcement Day. . , qv T .,..., .... , , , , , K, A 5 K i , xr I 'If 4 in , 1 ,,,,,' X 'fi 311,12 .173 Q., 4' ,-'fl' 1 if l L , X Q aw , iii fl it ff R Rodriguez, james Rosemann, William Ross, Glenn Rostan, Timothy Ryan, Edward , Ryan, Thomas ir 3' if ui 454 yn, , M Sacco, Steven Salvato, Mark Sandor, lohn Saporito, Domenic Saunders, Ricardo Schaumburg, Daniel Schmeda, Daniel Schmidt, lohn Schultz, Lawrence Schuster, Randal Sciortino, Thomas Scislowski, Thaddiaus Selby, loseph Shamle, Frank Sharp, Randall Shaw, Daniel !,f '-s. -F' ' ' H Sheridan, Edward r - g Sherman, Michael ' ' Siciliano, Benjamin I A . 5 fs , Skrzypczynski,Brian, Slovak, Timothy ,-gsm, ff, Freshmen X 125 Sopek, Richard Sowinski, Christopher Stankey, Thaddeus Staudner, Horst Stermer, Philip Steurbaut, Richard Stone, Melvin Stumpfoll, Michael Sweeney, Brian Swider, David Swider, Thomas Sygieda, Peter Szetela, Adam Szubra, Edward Tannehill, Robert Tarczynski, Adam Taylor, Terrence Thorp, james Tobin, Keith Tomazin, joseph Tremblay, james Tryba, Lester Van Oost, Daniel Varsolona, Steven Vitale, Cesare Voegtle, jay Vukovojac, joseph Wallbaum, William Walzel, Richard Wasilewski, Zbigniew Watermann, john Wendell, Robert Whittenhall, Paul Williams, Byron Witek, David Wodzisz, john Wolf, Thomas Yaneck, Michael Young, jerald Zabinski, Gerard Zaffaro, Anthony Zborek, Dennis 126 f Freshmen ,K i W .-in WWF 5 , if .

First, the tarps vvere spread to protect the floor and securely taped together. Then, tables and chairs were neatly set up to accommodate the Bingo players. Each junior or senior first period class was responsible for Bingo clean-up at least one Wednesday morn- ing ofthe year. The chairs are neatly put on racks, and the tables are laid on long carts, while the tarps are disassembled, folded, and stored away. Within no- time, the Bingo facility is converted once again into a normal gym. By help- ing out in this vvay, the students had the opportunity to aid the Parents' Club in its efforts to raise funds that ultimately will help in keeping the tuition as low as possible.

Designed to im- prove their reading speed and comprehension, the program occupied approximately 10 weeks of class time. Under the tutelage of Messrs. Horan and Lithgow, this special offering took place during the normal English class periods. The pro- gram Which has lasted 12 years was coordinated by Mr. Quinn, who arranged the actual broadcasts of the taped program and tabulated the testing results. Members of Mr. Lithgowls English class attempt to maintain a constant rate of speed guided by the signals from the videotape. Sophomores X 129 Learning the Rules of the Road In the State of Illinois, it is required that any stu- dent under 18 years of age must attend 30 hours of Driver's Education classes before obtaining his permit. Although St. Pat's does not provide the actual driving facilities, it does provide students with a Driver's Education course, taught by Mr. Olsen from Roosevelt High School. This course was taught, to students 15 years of age and up, every day at 2:30 in Room 205. Mr. Kurland, the sophomore counselor, arranged the eight groups that took the course and determined the schedule they would have. Upon successful completion of the course, a student was allowed to go to range and traffic, acquire his blue slip, and ultimately receive his license. Mr. Olsen from Roosevelt High School assigns the class ques- tions from the Rules of the Road. I ,, sv s , li ff Hsu .ug sw 'lag NW irisss Q . i ,, X us X. Q 1555 td H9 ,ns Eng!

Offered an opportunity to participate in an honors program for the first time in their high school careers, the juniors also received their class rings and attended their first prom. All juniors attended a 2 day retreat at La Salle Manor, where they learned a little more about themselves and where they are headed, Since the main theme of junior year is one of prepara- tion, students take the PSAT and ACT tests because both of these tests are required for en- try into college. Also during junior year, students began examining opportunities offered by dif- ferent colleges and viewing the many options for the nearby future. junior Carl Oros, one of over 100 chemistry students, prepares a solution using water while in the lab. , A V Wagga?

Under the direction of moderator Mr. Niall Collins, the club organized a car wash in May which was held in the school parking lot. In an assembly-line fashion, the members soaped, rinsed and dried the cars of approximately 175 customers. The profits realized from their efforts were used to purchase additional Weightlifting equipment in order to improve their conditioning program. juniors X 141 Electing Student Leaders Every spring students are allowed to nominate themselves for Student Council offices.

The final wrap-up of our four years was a year of change for many of us. We welcomed a new prin- cipal who brought with him a new class schedule which gave a new feeling to the school day. We saw one of the best years that the Basketball team ever had and we congratulated the Congregation of the Christian Brothers when it became 300 years old. We all looked forward to the Senior Prom and those who attended shared in a great event together for the last time. However, most of all, we anticipated our gradua- tion. We were all about to go our separate ways, many of us on to college and some of us out into the working world. Yet, we will never forget the people whom we have met and the knowledge that we have gained in our four years at St. Patrick's.

Seeking Knowledge The library, which contains many thousands of books, is a service provid- ed to all the students and faculty. The library is operated by Bro. loel Dolan with the assistance of Mrs. Carol Carter. Many students used the library as a research center, but most used it as a quiet place to study. The library also provided a wide variety of the latest magazines which were available to up- date the student on the current events of the world. By the time the year was over, many students and faculty used the library to gain new knowledge for themselves. Students, like senior Kevin King, often request change from Mrs. Carter in order to Xerox impor- tant information for their research projects. 148 X Seniors fli- Allil f W? ..k -ag mi. IOHN M.

Seniors X 149 Reunion of the Best In 1932, the St. Patrick High School Varsity Basketball team won the national champion- ship. One of the few times that the members of the team reunited was this year. The re - union was arranged by Mr. Robert Summins, a member of the Parents' Club. During halftime of one of the varsity basketball games, the old-timers were individually introduced. Perhaps the most esteemed member of the 1932 team is Ray Meyer, the basketball coach for the DePaul Blue Demons. Mr. Meyer received a standing ovation from his teammates and all those present in the gym. There was a short reception afterwards in the cafeteria for all those in attendance. There, the alumni, especially Ray Meyer, signed autographs of their 1932 team picture. Bottom: The 1932 teammates, as they are individually introduced, they applaud and greet each other. Right: Ray Meyer autographs copies of his 1932 team picture. 4 I SCOTT L. BRADY S I St. William, Loyola, Scientist, Wildman, Chorus 4, Ski Club 1, 2, Cross Country 1, Intramurals 1-4, Martial Arts 2.

In Quest of the Best For the second year in a row, the Art Club hosted an art con- test in which only St. Pat's students can participate. To make the contest more fair, two separate judgings took place: one for the art students and one for the non-art students. Each of the judgings had its own set of prizes: S30 for first place, S520 for second, and S10 for third. In the art student category, senior Charles Perchak won all three prizes. Honorable Men- tion awards were won by Marty Dudzinski, Bill Minogue, and Andy Ideler. For the non-art students, first place was won by Iohn Wisowaty, second place by Manuel Herrera, and third place by Tom Fitzpatrick. Honorable Mention was given to Manuel Herrera and Tom Fitzpatrick. Vice-Principal Hilary Kokosinski closely examines one of the many entries in this year's Art Contest. 'lMr. K along with Bro. Neil and Mr. Chuck Schmidt, were the judges who determined the final winners. Seniors X 153 BERNARD IAMES FAY St. Thecla5 DePauI5 Thespian Society 45 Student Council 45 Football 15 Intramurals 'l-4.

Mathletes Score High in Competition Many high schools compete against one another in the field of mathematics by having their top math students take the National Math Exam. The top three scores from every school determine that school's overall rank in the state. Eighty St. Pat's students took the exam, and the top three scorers were loe Wisniewski, Eric Kindahl, and Mark Kaczkowski, respectively. The scores of these three seniors gave our school a state rank of eleven. lf those same three scores were used in Kentucky, St. Pat's would have been ranked number one. Seven top St. Pat's math students took another exam called the Chicago Area All-Star Math Contest. The top thirty-two students from the Chicagoland Area would go to the University of Maryland as representatives of Chicago sometime during the sum- mer of 1981. Senior Mike Dolatowski was the only Shamrock to score well enough to be one of the thirty-two going to Maryland. Senior loe Wisniewski was selected as one of the runners-up of the contest. Bob Altenbach, one of 80 students who took the National Math Exam, carefully considers his responses. 156 X Seniors tn ...M ,M-'ef RICHARD L.

X it fi v I World Gains from Broken Records Eight records were set for the mission collections during the 1980-1981 school year. The highest school total, 511,975.00 for one year capped the record setting year, Bro. Anthony Quattrochi's junior homeroom 107 led the school with a total collection of 51,291.79 Other department leaders were Bro. Iohn Blease's freshman homeroom 11, Miss Cassin's sophomore homeroom 34, and Mr. Venegoni's senior homeroom 108. Another record, this one set by the junior class, was a junior class high of S3,735.69. Mr. Max Kurland moderated the collection, and Bro. Thomas Dominic compiled all statistics and records. Mr. Kurland counted the money and sent it to the Propagation of the Faith. Some of the money was then used to buy supplies for missions in Africa, lndia, South America, and other third world nations. The remaining funds were sent directly to various missions to help feed thousands of unfortunate children all over the world.

Seniors X 165 In the second semester of this school year, a new type of war game club was created, called Dungeons and Dragons. The club's president was james Lofton, and the members met every Friday in the main lobby or in Student Services. Each session is run by a member nicknamed the Dungeon Master. He presents a situation or a problem to the players and they must attempt to solve it or elaborate on it. They do this by choosing and portraying a character. That character must face all the consequences that are brought about by the game. This 15 member organization demonstrates St. Pat's ability to adjust its extra-curricular program to meet the in- terests of its students. The players, who portray certain characters, try to solve a problem or situation that was presented to them by the Dungeon Master. DANIEL A. RADCLIFFE St. Gertrude, Northern Illinois U.

Unlike other years, where the parade ran on State Street, this year's parade vvas held on Dearborn Street. The day began at the old Saint Patrick Church, where Cardinal Cody celebrated mass. The group from St. Pat's later moved on to Michigan Avenue and occupied the 32nd spot in the pro- ., 5, Q-Q. cession. The float, which emphasiz- ed the Christian Brothers and their 300 years of service to youth, carried several Brothers and Shamrocks. Grand Marshall Bro. Neil, our cheerleaders, and several leprechauns walked alongside the float and greeted the gathered crowds. Top: Leprechauns Iohn Sacco, joe Wisniewski, Tom Hoff, and Frank Holomshek tip their hats to Mayor lane Byrne and her daughter Cathy in front of Saint Patrick Church.

However, besides spen- ding many hours in classroom related ac- tivities, these men and women also perform a myriad of other duties which support and enhance the educational process at St. Pat's. It is not unusual to find faculty members around the premises in the hours immediately after school and into the evening, devoting their free time to such activities as coaching, moderating, general supervision and driving the bus and vans to a variety of events. lt is due to the generosity of the Brothers and lay staff that St. Pat's has achieved the success for which it is known. Mr. Bill Easton warms up the school bus before he drives the group to the retreat he will later conduct. BRO. NEIL KIEFFE, FSC, B.S., M.S., Ed.D. Principal MR. HILARY KOKOSINSKI, B.S., M.S.

After many long hours interviewing and tabulating statistics, he developed a revised program for the honors students which will be incorporated in the curriculum over the next four years.

Closing X 183 Editor's Note Acknowledgements When classes began in August of 1980, all of us noticed a number of significant changes: the daily class schedule had changed, a bunch of new teachers were around, there was a new man behind the principal's desk, many faculty members had acquired new or different responsibilities, and an intramural program was incorporated into the St. Pat's routine. The staff of the Shamrock 1981 attempted to locate and focus on these changes, whether they were academic or non-academic. This theme, focusing on a year of change, determined what the cover, the endsheets, and the section division pages will look like. Now I would like to thank all the people who are involved with the production of this book. The people who should receive the most thanks are the members of my staff. They devoted countless hours of their time in the pro- duction of this book and they created the pleasant atmosphere in the yearbook office that made yearbook work easier. I also want to acknowledge the yearbook moderators, Brother lohn Blease and Mr. lim Lithgow, for con- tributing much of their personal time to the preparation of this book. Mr. Tom Willette, the Taylor Publishing Com- pany representative, should be recognized for his concern of our yearbook problems. Mr. and Mrs. Norbert Dompke from Root Studios provided the photographers necessary to capture the highlights of our school year. All of the moderators and coaches should be recognized for providing us with the information of their respective teams or organizations. A special thanks should go to Bro. Neil for providing the staff with badly needed equipment ftypewritersl and information when our sources were ek- hausted. On a ersonal note, m arents should once a ain . . . . receive a super special thanks for having the patience The Staff necessary to put up with me and the pain-in-the-eyebrow , yearbook work. A little more special thanks should go out to ,-'-.ir . ..
