Kotarski says, I did it again. West Catholic golf team out for title Over the past two years the golf team has compiled a record that no other team at West can come close to duplicating. Last year the Falcons won the first city title for any varsity sport at West with a 39V2-V2 record. For the second year in a row the team finished second in the regionals to again win a trip to the state tournament where the boys finished in the top ten. Coach Al Slowinski is optimistic this year with the return of three lettermen, Chuck Rapolevich, Frank Kotarski and Tom Hardy. Kotarski, Hardy, and Rapolevich should be tops in the city. Backed by Bob Bernott and the rest of the team, West is again favored for first place. Tom Hardy tees off. 93

Under the leadership of Sister M. Jonathan, the com- bined forces of the Varsity and Junior Varsity Pep Clubs tackled the problem of morale building in the school. Their most painstaking task was accomplished when they presented their card section. Stu- dents from all four levels worked together to make this a success. Other proiects undertaken were the decorating of goal posts, making signs and lending a hand to help build up the great enthusiasm displayed during Crush Cougars week.
