Grandparent’s Day spreads compassion<br />
Jay Finley (9) and T.J. Moncrief (12), with their grandparents, attended the “Eucharistic Miracles Around the World” exhibit.<br />
by Cody Eveld<br />
The ninth annual Grandparent’s<br />
Day was held Sept.<br />
10 with 132 grandparents<br />
attending.<br />
Students and grandparents<br />
toured an exhibit in<br />
the Performing Arts Center<br />
which featured a “Eucharistic<br />
Miracles around the<br />
World” display. Later, the<br />
grandparents met teachers<br />
and took tours with their<br />
grandchildren. The students<br />
also ate lunch with their<br />
grandparent in the cafeteria<br />
and in the guest dining hall.<br />
Marshal Brooks (11) said,<br />
“It’s good that I get to see<br />
my grandparents. Since I’m<br />
a boarder I don’t get to see<br />
my family often, so I’m glad<br />
Subi gave us this opportunity.”<br />
Marshal’s grandparents<br />
are the mother and father of<br />
Mr. Pat Franz, who recently<br />
became the Director of Institutional<br />
Development at<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong> <strong>Academy</strong>.<br />
Some students’ grandparents<br />
could not attend for<br />
various reasons. Ben Johnson<br />
(11) said, “I believe that<br />
having grandparents [here]<br />
is a great experience for<br />
students. The grandparents<br />
get to relate to the students’<br />
daily activities and partake<br />
in the weekly Mass.”<br />
Grandparents’ Day ended<br />
with a performance in the<br />
PAC by many solo acts, a<br />
jazz ensemble performance<br />
and a choral concert.<br />
Axel Ntamatungiro’s<br />
grandparents also could not<br />
attend. He said, “I am glad<br />
that the grandparents came.<br />
It is good to see them bonding<br />
with their grandchildren.<br />
Plus I got to get out of<br />
class to play for them.”

A nuclear reactor in<br />
Japan was destroyed by a<br />
9.0 earthquake followed by<br />
a tsunami March 3, 2011. A<br />
nuclear reactor is basically<br />
a boiling pot that needs to<br />
always be cooled down. The<br />
earthquake and tsunami<br />
caused the cooling system<br />
to be broken and the reactor<br />
blew up nine days later,<br />
March 12. This disaster was<br />
an unimaginable situation<br />
and unprepared for.<br />
In April, the International<br />
Atomic Energy Agency<br />
(IAEA) labeled this incident<br />
a Level 7 catastrophe,<br />
the same as the Chernobyl<br />
disaster in the Ukraine in<br />
1986.<br />
Juegos<br />
Jeux<br />
Though its most immediate<br />
victims were Japanese,<br />
the radioactive substances<br />
spread throughout the<br />
world by ocean and air.<br />
Japanese efforts to control<br />
the reactor created more<br />
problems by sending out<br />
highly radioactive sea<br />
water to be released into the<br />
Pacific Ocean. Neighboring<br />
countries such as Korea,<br />
China, and the Philippines<br />
have found radioactive<br />
substances in their ocean<br />
and air.<br />
Though this incident<br />
happened only a year ago,<br />
it seems like many have<br />
now forgotten about this<br />
horrible crisis that can drive<br />
the world into a horrifying<br />
place. Right now it might<br />
seem like we have no problem<br />
for living in this world.<br />
But no one can tell what<br />
this incident will do in the<br />
future.<br />
We must be prepared<br />
and prevent such future<br />
disasters. Natural disasters<br />
cannot be prevented. These<br />
disasters will happen.<br />
We all know that this<br />
killer, nuclear energy, has<br />
murdered a lot of people,<br />
and we could be next.<br />
I wish people would not<br />
mess with radio-activity<br />
and nuclear sources of energy<br />
any more. Instead we<br />
must look for some other<br />
replaceable clean energy<br />
source. Perhaps wind or<br />
solar.<br />

A large metal raven<br />
breaks through the roof,<br />
grabs the girl you came to<br />
rescue and takes her from<br />
you, you run to the break in<br />
the wall, and you see tens<br />
of thousands of feet below<br />
to the Earth’s surface. You<br />
jump. This is one of the<br />
many invigorating scenes<br />
that you will play in Bioshock’s<br />
third installment,<br />
Bioshock: Infinite.<br />
The series is set in the<br />
1950s to 1960s in an underwater<br />
city called the Rapture,<br />
where the boundaries<br />
of science and health have<br />
been pushed to the limits<br />
and humans are on the<br />
verge of becoming beasts.<br />
Powers (also known as<br />
plasmids) such as lightning,<br />
flames and telekinesis<br />
become available by injection<br />
into the wrist, and<br />
eventually people lost who<br />
they really were and the<br />
underwater world went into<br />
a state of chaos.<br />
Bioshock: Infinite takes<br />
place five decades prior to<br />
the second game, and plasmids<br />
have been replaced<br />
with the vigor system.<br />
You can carry two vigors,<br />
instead of collecting tons of<br />
plasmids, and each vigor<br />
only has so many charges.<br />
Also, instead of the<br />
under water dystopia that<br />
we are all so familiar with,<br />
a brand new, above the<br />
clouds, distorted image<br />
of the American dream is<br />
yours for the taking.<br />
For those who enjoy an<br />
extreme challenge similar to<br />
Fallout: New Vegas’s Hardcore<br />
Mode or Halo’s Legendary,<br />
Bioshock: Infinite will have a<br />
mode called 1999 mode for<br />
true hardcore gamers.<br />
Available February 2013.<br />

The Fellowship of Christian<br />
Athletes is a new club at<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong> this year, started by<br />
David Johnson (11), a new<br />
student who transferred<br />
from Charleston.<br />
Johnson said,” I’ve been<br />
involved in FCA for many<br />
years at my old school, and<br />
I figured starting a chapter<br />
here at <strong>Subiaco</strong> would<br />
entice many students, and<br />
give them an opportunity<br />
to be involved in something<br />
they would really enjoy.”<br />
The first activity for the<br />
FCA chapter was attending<br />
a rally at the Tyson Track<br />
facility on September 1. Mr.<br />
Robert Pugh, Br. Matthias<br />
Hagge, Mr. Stephen Zaborowski,<br />
and James Johnson<br />
chaperoned the event.<br />
The rally began at 3:30; it<br />
consisted of many spiritual<br />
activities. A Christian rock<br />
band played, and many<br />
talks were given by a variety<br />
of people, such as Allie<br />
Wilson, Tyler Wilson’s (the<br />
quarterback at Arkansas)<br />
sister.<br />
They attended the<br />
Razorback football game<br />
against Jacksonville State.<br />
Danny Kopack (12)<br />
said,”The FCA trip was a<br />
great time for me. I enjoyed<br />
the rally because it related<br />
to me on a personal level,<br />
with all of the young people<br />
that spoke. The game was<br />
a plus. I loved seeing the<br />
Hogs win with my boys!”<br />
Fellowship of Christian Atheletes members enjoy themselves as<br />
they cheer on the Razorbacks in Fayetteville on Sept. 1.<br />
Schola brings music to weekday Mass<br />
page 3<br />
A few members of the newly formed Schola choir, Adam Musgrove<br />
(9), Will Owens (9), and Jakob Halter (9), warm up before<br />
their performance at Mass on Sept.19.<br />
by Kamron Hurst<br />
Mr. Stephen Thompson,<br />
a new teacher and dean at<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong>, has high hopes for<br />
this year’s spring musical as<br />
well as a Schola choir.<br />
The Schola choir already<br />
exists within the monastery,<br />
but Mr. Thompson<br />
has made it available to the<br />
students as well.<br />
Dong Hyun Shin (10)<br />
said,” I enjoy singing in the<br />
Schola choir. It is a great<br />
way for me to express my<br />
voice to the Church.”<br />
Mr. Thompson is hopeful<br />
to get a turnout of about<br />
20-30 boys to sing during<br />
the Wednesday masses. The<br />
group meets on Mondays<br />
and Tuesdays to prepare<br />
and practice the liturgy<br />
music for the Wednesday<br />
masses.<br />
Mr. Thompson is hopeful<br />
that a new winter musical<br />
will include a diversity<br />
of people, consisting of<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong> students.<br />
Man of La Mancha is the<br />
name of the winter musical,<br />
and the first rehearsal will<br />
be Sept. 27 from 6 to 8 p.m.<br />
There will be pizza, and a<br />
chance for the cast to meet<br />
new guests that may be in<br />
the show.<br />
Mr. Thompson has written<br />
two full-length musicals:<br />
Suburban Dreams and<br />
Jonestown. Although neither<br />
actually made it to Broadway,<br />
they both made it to<br />
“off-off Broadway,” according<br />
to Mr. Thompson. This<br />
is a term used in the drama<br />
field to describe the theatres<br />
in New York City that contain<br />
about 100 seats.

After three years of providing<br />
Live Stream, video<br />
productions is now a class.<br />
Br. John Paul Richey<br />
teaches the class, sponsors<br />
the related club and<br />
is in charge of much of the<br />
Live Stream production.<br />
Live Stream is available for<br />
viewing online at ihigh.<br />
com/subiaco.<br />
Club membership includes<br />
those students who<br />
help with the Live Stream<br />
videoing.<br />
“I do it for volunteer<br />
hours, but it’s also really<br />
fun to learn the Live Stream<br />
process and how to get<br />
a great shot,” said Elliot<br />
Mason (8). “It’s also fun to<br />
work with Br. JP.”<br />
Other students who<br />
assist with the live taping<br />
are David Johnson (11), Ben<br />
Johnson (11), A.J. Winterberg<br />
(12), Vince Loia (12)<br />
and Eric Siebenmorgen (12).<br />
Events that are included<br />
in the Live Stream programming<br />
are football, basketball,<br />
baseball, soccer, and<br />
tennis games, performances<br />
by drama, choral, and jazz<br />
band, and special events at<br />
church.<br />
Play-by-play is typically<br />
done by Mr. Greg Timmerman.<br />
Before each game, he<br />
does his homework to find<br />
statistics on players.<br />
Live Stream was set up<br />
by the Taliaferro family four<br />
years ago. Their two boys,<br />
Elliot and Norman Taliaferro,<br />
were on the basketball<br />
team and the family lived in<br />
Dallas, Texas, so the parents<br />
couldn’t watch their games.<br />
The Live Stream Program<br />
is still using those donated<br />
funds.<br />
According to Br. J.P.,<br />
future considerations for<br />
the program include having<br />
drama students commentate<br />
the games and having<br />
a class for the purpose of<br />
teaching commentation. Mr.<br />
Timmerman has also been<br />
considered to teach a half<br />
semester class on how to<br />
commentate play by play.<br />

involved in summer travel<br />
Summer is only about<br />
ten weeks long, but some<br />
students made the most of<br />
the time.<br />
For Seong Hun Lee,<br />
a junior from Gwangju,<br />
Korea, it was a time to catch<br />
up with family. In early<br />
June before he headed back<br />
home to Korea, he went to<br />
Madison, Wisconsin, and<br />
visited his younger brother<br />
who is staying with a host<br />
family in the United States,<br />
the same host family that<br />
Seong Hun stayed with for<br />
two years. “I missed them<br />
so badly that I was so glad<br />
to meet up with my brother<br />
and host family,” said Lee.<br />
He and his brother visited<br />
a farmers market and<br />
also spent a day at Olbrich<br />
Beach. They visited downtown<br />
Madison and spent<br />
an evening on State Street,<br />
famous for its restaurants,<br />
shopping centers, bars and<br />
galleries.<br />
De Zhang, a junior from<br />
China, spent a month in<br />
the capital city of Shanghai,<br />
which happens to be the<br />
largest city by population in<br />
the world.<br />
That time was divided<br />
between studying and<br />
sightseeing. Most mornings<br />
he left his hotel and went<br />
to San Li School where he<br />
prepared for SAT testing.<br />
He visited The Bund,<br />
the city’s financial center.<br />
Here he enjoyed the many<br />
architectural styles. Built<br />
by western companies,<br />
the buildings reflect many<br />
genres, including the baroque,<br />
Romanesque, classical<br />
and Renaissance styles.<br />
In contrast he also toured<br />
some of the ancient cultural<br />
spots. He visited Yu Garden,<br />
Shanghai’s sole surviving<br />
ancient Chinese garden<br />
open to the public, and<br />
shopped at Yuyuan Market<br />
and ate traditional Chinese<br />
food. He proclaimed this<br />
vacation the best he has<br />
ever had.<br />
Ziangfan Man’s summer<br />
vacation was similar, except<br />
he visited Thailand with<br />
his family. They visited the<br />
Grand Palace (home of Thai<br />
kings and the royal court for<br />
150 years) and the Wat Phra<br />
Kaew (a Buddhist temple).<br />
Both were beautiful examples<br />
of the intricate details<br />
of Thai architecture.<br />
They bought fruit at the<br />
Floating Market in Bangkok<br />
and watched the night<br />
scenes of the Chao Phrata<br />
River. And, of course, they<br />
shopped at MBK shopping<br />
mall.<br />
Man said, “I left all my<br />
stresses from studying back<br />
in Bangkok.”<br />
Junior Quintin Helms<br />
went to California for two<br />
weeks; most of that time<br />
was spent on Newport<br />
Beach. “Two of my friends<br />
from Texas hung out [with<br />
me] and had fun and did<br />
whatever.”<br />
In July he watched the<br />
Arkansas Razorbacks baseball<br />
team play in the College<br />
World Series in Omaha,<br />
Nebraska.<br />
“[It was] very exciting,“<br />
said Helms, “ when we beat<br />
[South Carolina] to end<br />
their winning streak.”<br />
The Razorbacks placed<br />
fourth in the series.<br />
Nathan Mabry (11) attended a cello camp in New York City.<br />
Seok Young Kim (12) spent<br />
time this summer at the Haewoondae<br />
beach in Korea.<br />
Tae Hawn Kim (12) and Seong<br />

A trip for ten days off<br />
campus may not be many<br />
students’ idea of a great<br />
way to begin summer<br />
vacation, but eight students<br />
chose to do just that last<br />
summer as they headed<br />
off to the Grand Canyon<br />
with two teachers and two<br />
monks who acted as drivers<br />
and chaperones.<br />
The eight who chose to<br />
hike and camp with their<br />
teachers were returning<br />
students Deacon Hardwicke<br />
(8), Jay Finley (9), John Tran<br />
(10), Lee Stuff (10) and Jack<br />
LeBas (12) and graduates<br />
Toby Turney and Daniel<br />
Mora and former student<br />
Caleb Fox.<br />
Band director Mr. Roy<br />
Goetz, who planned the<br />
event, chose early summer<br />
because they did not want<br />
to be in the desert when the<br />
rains came. According to<br />
Mr. Goetz, it can rain 4 or 5<br />
days a week in late June.<br />
It took three days of<br />
steady driving to get to<br />
Albuquerque, New Mexico,<br />
where the hiking adventures<br />
really began.<br />
At Albuquerque they visited<br />
Christ in the Desert, a<br />
Benedictine monastery and<br />
stayed overnight at a nearby<br />
campsite.<br />
In the Grand Canyon<br />
area, they camped at one<br />
site and took day hikes<br />
down several trails, including<br />
the Bright Angel Trail,<br />
the Clear Creek Trail, and<br />
the Hermit Trail.<br />
For some the best part<br />
of the trip was the sunrises<br />
and sunsets, especially the<br />
one at Mather Point, an<br />
overlook that allowed for a<br />
spectacular view.<br />
Another highlight, according<br />
to Stuff, was the<br />
Native American who came<br />
to their camp as he was<br />
passing through on horseback<br />
on his way to a ceremony.<br />
He talked to them<br />
about his culture.<br />
Students helped pack<br />
and unpack supplies such<br />
as tents, stove, and sleeping<br />
bags.<br />
For Stuff, one of his<br />
fondest memories is of the<br />
restaurant stop in Amarillo.<br />
Stuff said, “We saw<br />
people trying the 72-ounce<br />
steak. Most of them that<br />
tried were going really fast<br />
and did not pace themselves.”<br />
Cell phones and video<br />
games were certainly taken,<br />
but they didn’t use them<br />
while on the trail, partly<br />
because of reception but<br />
also because the beauty of<br />
nature gave them something<br />
much better to do.<br />

The Trojan football<br />
team’s first game resulted in<br />
a 49-15 victory over Decatur.<br />
The defense played<br />
well and allowed only 69<br />
yards of total offense. Eli<br />
Schluterman (12) was the<br />
leading tackler with 9 tackles.<br />
Senior half back Austin<br />
Breed had nearly 150<br />
rushing yards, including<br />
a 70+ yard touchdown<br />
run in the second quarter.<br />
Fifty percent of quarterback<br />
Seth Drewry’s passes were<br />
completed for a score! He<br />
completed two passes to<br />
junior Chris Post, one of<br />
which was a 72-yard touchdown.<br />
Greg Kelley III (12)<br />
hauled in a 33-yard gain<br />
and sophomore Christian<br />
Lowery caught a pass for a<br />
two-point conversion.<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong> did not have as<br />
much success against Lamar<br />
in Game 2. The Trojans<br />
had 126 yards on offense,<br />
but the Trojans’ defense<br />
did not play very well and<br />

<strong>Subiaco</strong> Trojans senior back Austin Breed (12) hits the hole at full<br />
speed while sophomore Logan Kremer blocks against Decatur on<br />
Aug. 31. The Trojans won 49-15.<br />
it showed on the stat sheet<br />
when the Warriors racked<br />
up 418 yards of total offense.<br />
Veteran linebacker<br />
Christian Lowery, who led<br />
the team with 9 tackles,<br />
said, “We just didn’t show<br />
up.”<br />
The final score was 0-18.<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong> traveled to Perryville,<br />
on Sept. 14 in their<br />
final non-conference matchup.<br />
They had a rough start<br />
and were losing 0-6 at the<br />
end of the first quarter.<br />
The Trojans first score<br />
was an 80-yard scramble by<br />
Drewry.<br />
In the second quarter,<br />
Breed had an exciting<br />
touchdown run with mere<br />
seconds left in the half to<br />
put the Trojans in the lead<br />
by one.<br />
<strong>Subiaco</strong>’s defense came<br />
out and shut Perryville out<br />
the entire second half.<br />
The final score was 27-12.<br />

Arizona 49-0, they moved in front of<br />
LSU for second. Arkansas is officially<br />
unranked. They are now 1-3 this<br />

Subi falls to Apaches<br />
by Chris Post<br />
The <strong>Subiaco</strong> Trojans<br />
played the Pottsville Apaches<br />
at home Sept. 21 in both<br />
teams’ conference openers.<br />
One of <strong>Subiaco</strong>’s first<br />
drives looked promising as<br />
they drove down to the nine<br />
yard line then lost a fumble.<br />
The score was 0-15 at the<br />
end of the first quarter.<br />
Sophomore fullback Julius<br />
Lewis had a touchdown<br />
run in the second quarter<br />
with a run up the middle.<br />
A big push from the Trojan<br />
line helped Lewis break into<br />
the open field and sprint 22<br />
yards for the score. Pottsville<br />
was up 22-6 at halftime.<br />
Senior Austin Breed<br />
weaved his way through<br />
Pottsville defenders for a<br />
60-yard touchdown in the<br />
third quarter. Linebacker<br />
Eli Schluterman (12) had an<br />
interception in the fourth<br />
quarter to keep the Apaches<br />
out of the endzone again.<br />
Safety Kelly Hollis (10) had<br />
a game high 15 tackles.<br />
Final score was 12-36.<br />
Junior Trojans struggle in first two games<br />

Lacerte played for the<br />
Trojans when he was a<br />
ninth grader but left <strong>Subiaco</strong><br />
to return home to Florida<br />

All four district members<br />
will travel to Maumelle on<br />
great improvements from<br />

the end of the season.”<br />
These seniors have had a<br />

Two of the eight events<br />
held at the first of this year’s<br />
three Renaissance Day’s<br />
were in tribute to novels<br />
studied in the classes.<br />
Eighth graders study True<br />
Grit, a novel set in Fort<br />
Smith, AR, and the Indian<br />
Territory, and the ninth<br />
graders read The Hunger<br />
Games.<br />
The Hunger Games activities<br />
were held on campus<br />
with Ms. Jessica Dempsey,<br />
Br. Matthias Hagge, and<br />
Mrs. Sarah Perreault as<br />
the mentors. The 20 students<br />
spent the morning<br />
in the Green Room with<br />
an archery session with Br.<br />
Matthias instructing.<br />
Br. Matthias said the<br />
reason they had the archery<br />
session was to “promote the<br />
club and promote archery<br />
as a sport.”<br />
Then they went on a scavenger<br />
hunt around the campus<br />
to find various items<br />
from clues posted on pieces<br />
of paper. The winning team<br />
was rewarded with candy.<br />
In the afternoon, the stu-<br />
dents relaxed and watched<br />
“The Hunger Games.”<br />
Sam Chisholm (11) from<br />
Memphis said, “It was awesome.”<br />
For the Fort Smith trip,<br />
the members toured the<br />
National Historic Center<br />
and the Fort Smith Visitor<br />
Center and rode the downtown<br />
trolley.<br />
Nicholas Lacy (9), a new<br />
student from North Little<br />
Rock said, “The Fort Smith<br />
trip was fun and interesting.<br />
We learned about the Civil<br />
War burial sites and the<br />
Hanging Judge.”<br />
Mr. Alex Borts, Mr.<br />
Steven Lester, Mr. Stephen<br />
Thompson, and Mrs. Shirley<br />
Kiefer were mentors for<br />
the group. Mrs. Kiefer said<br />
“seeing Arkansas history<br />
first hand” was the reason<br />
for the trip.<br />
The football players had<br />
fun at the field house. Other<br />
activities included the Lost<br />
Valley hike, bowling, New<br />
York-style cooking, and calligraphy.<br />

is Feb. 19.
