Contents Foreword<br />

Foreword 2 Now that the end is near the time has come for us to<br />

face our separate futures.<br />

. . . As frightened freshmen entering an unexplored<br />

Administration H school, the completion of senior year seemed almost<br />

an unattainable goal, but now, too soon, this goal is a<br />

Academics 22 reality.<br />

Regrets, we've had a few, but with each passing year<br />

... our struggles were far outweighed by our accomplish-<br />

Activities ments; our fears greatly outdistanced by our hopes.<br />

In this our final year, laughter and tears, failures and<br />

Sports 66 successes are all but memories. From vending machine<br />

lunches to full course meals . . . from faded plaid to new<br />

tweed skirts . . . from history is a science which investi-<br />

Underclassmen 88 gates and records ,o man is a socia, anima, fmm<br />

thoughtful frowns to carefree clowns. . . memories that<br />

Seniors 110 will be with us always. Simply the reality of all little<br />

things . . . the many insistent echoes of yesterdays that<br />

have made themselves felt, heard, seen . . . lived. These<br />

Patrons yesterdays were formulated and dramatized, with the<br />

intense pride that... we did it our way.


We've loved,<br />

we've laughed and cried,<br />

we've had our fill,<br />

our share of losing


And now,<br />

as tears subside,<br />

we find it all so amusing


To think we did all that,<br />

and may we say,<br />

"Not in a shy way"


Oh, no, oh no, not us, we did it Our Way.

Parish Clergy shepherds students<br />

through new theological trends<br />

Had the parish clergy not been guiding students<br />

through each doctrine of the new theology, the past<br />

year could have been a most confusing one for all.<br />

Monsignor Sullivan has indirectly motivated us to<br />

respond to such challenges as "fulfillment" and "committment".<br />

Along with regular parish business, Parish<br />

Administrator, Father James McConnell has accepted<br />

the task of explaining doctrinal changes. Parish Associates,<br />

Father George Erickson and Father Ronald Cioffi<br />

have attempted to broaden teenage understanding of<br />

new trends in theology.<br />

Their gigantic role as mediators between new and<br />

old was accomplished over and above each of their<br />

already crammed schedules of celebrant, confessor,<br />

teacher, administrator, and guest speaker.<br />

Inside SMHS the administration builds,<br />

spirit, atmosphere, tradition, color, image<br />

Another successful year of managing Saint Mary's<br />

has been due to our dedicated and efficient Administration.<br />

Under the direction of Sister Mary Madeline, Principal,<br />

we followed suggested guidelines, realizing the<br />

vital understanding and concern she has had for all<br />

Saint Mary's students. Because of her dedication, there<br />

has been a subtle interplay of progress and restraint,<br />

discipline and freedom, indulgence and love.<br />

With the invaluable aid of Assistant Principals, Sister<br />

Mary Dominic and Sister Mary Teresa, our administration<br />

has built an academic family, not an impersonal<br />

institution.<br />

They see it through<br />

without exception<br />

Teaching is a devotion, a dedication. While contemplating<br />

this truth, search all of these familiar faces. They<br />

mirror enthusiasm, character, patience, and love for<br />

their work and their students. Search these minds. They<br />

reflect knowledge, comprehension, and courage.<br />

Search these hearts. They reflect generosity, joy, and<br />

tolerance.<br />

With a whisper they offer encouragement to a faltering<br />

student. With a mere exchange of looks they<br />

communicate hope. Through long days of verbal interchange<br />

they build trust and countless other intangibles.<br />

Yes. Search these personalities. They respresent talent<br />

Cafeteria Staff soothed the echoing grumbles<br />

of empty stomachs.<br />

"I dialed Trunz Meats not Chicken Delight,"<br />

explains Mrs. Harvey.<br />

What a disappointment it would be if Mrs. Mc-<br />

Ginn and Mrs. Moskwa were not collecting<br />

money at the cash registers.<br />

"Oh no! the pizza should have been out of the<br />

oven fifteen minutes ago," exclaims Mrs. Mac-<br />

Kay to Mrs. Corvino.<br />

Whatever happened to "shake and bake," contemplates<br />

Mrs. Ammatucci and Mrs. Volosin.


"If only I knew what was wrong with this thing?" muses Mr. Murray. "The F.B.I, would love these<br />

fingerprints!" ponders Cert<br />

Mr. Fred Hendricks.<br />

While behind the scenes the Maintenance Crew<br />

conducted their own ecology drive.


Academic life at Saint Mary's<br />

has been one marked with interest,<br />

study, and accomplishment.<br />

Resource centers, well equipped<br />

laboratories, a wide assortment of<br />

visual aids, an extensive library,<br />

and teachers generous with offers<br />

of their free time made learning<br />

at SMHS enriching and rewarding.<br />

A varied and significant curriculum<br />

stimulated in each student<br />

a sense of wonder, and prompted<br />

them to observe and analyze, and<br />

admire and create. To each subject<br />

was brought innate attributes:


initiative that evoked inquiry,<br />

discussion, and research; perception<br />

that discerned those elusive<br />

qualities which vitalized the learning<br />

process; judgment that sifted<br />

truth and beauty from ideas and<br />

imaginations; and vision that<br />

anticipated high ideals and accomplishments.<br />

Scholastically, SMHS is a twoway<br />

street. Compositing the giving<br />

and the taking, each student<br />

has acquired knowledge, wisdom,<br />

depth, and understanding.<br />

We came, We saw, We conquered


Michael Marrone ponders, "Is the difference<br />

between Romanticism and Realism really<br />

necessary?"<br />

"Teaching English<br />

grammar is hopeless,"<br />

muses Mr. Rooney.<br />

English skills<br />

aid personal<br />

development<br />

Mrs. Winh offers some vocabulary assistance to Kevin Kelly.


English teachers remedy that "required feeling"<br />

English, that inevitable course that no student<br />

can avoid, did have a remedy for that "required<br />

feeling" — the English teachers.<br />

Through them, classes became acquainted with<br />

the land along the banks of the Mississippi, the<br />

English countryside, the world of many centuries<br />

ago B.C., as well as the present time. Poetry, drama,<br />

essay, short story, and novel all lent themselves to<br />

student recognition of the romantic tales of the rich<br />

and also the stark realism of the poor.<br />

With English falling into the category of the<br />

"living subjects," transition in this department is<br />

a perpetual necessity. This year along with a new<br />

department chairman, Mr. William Wolff, came<br />

the introduction of new paperbacks, new film<br />

strips, new records, and many new ideas.<br />

Efforts were made to correlate writing assignments<br />

with literature units and to relate formal<br />

grammar to problems arising from these assignments.<br />

Added to the associate English courses of Speech,<br />

Journalism, and Creative Writing were the innovative<br />

honors course devoted to Shakespeare's sonnets<br />

and the basic skills tutorial.<br />

Mathematics stressed good groundwork<br />

in concepts, logic, and clear thinking.<br />

"I knew today would be Excedrin<br />

headache number c 2 =^a 2 + b 2 ,<br />

sighs Sr. Rose.<br />

"Since there are so many ways to solve<br />

this equation, why can't I find one?"<br />

wonders Amy Norek.<br />

Equations, signs, and symbols comprised the<br />

mysterious world of the math student. Not only<br />

was the student expected to accurately manipulate<br />

such devices but also he was supposed to exhibit<br />

sound thought and reasoning throughout the<br />

process.<br />

Algebra I started freshman minds whirling. Sophomores<br />

whipped out their trusty compasses, protractors,<br />

and rulers for geometry and found their<br />

studies in optical illusions challenged the old<br />

standard "seeing is believing." Algebra II stimulated<br />

the brains of many juniors as seniors delved<br />

into a wide diversity of math phases such as logic,<br />

logarithmic functions, and calculus.<br />

Despite the perennial fear of the subject, a good<br />

groundwork in mathematical concepts was stressed<br />

as an essential preparation for life in this scientific,<br />

modern world.<br />

"These are supposed to be<br />

the future mathematical<br />

genuises of America?" deliberates<br />

Miss Pribish.<br />

Social Science provided a coherent<br />

study of world affairs<br />

Since a clear understanding of our social, economic,<br />

and political problems was never more<br />

necessary than at the present time, social science<br />

has come to occupy a prominent place in the SMHS<br />

curriculum.<br />

Both World History required of freshmen and<br />

American History required of juniors and seniors<br />

emphasized the relation of the past to the understanding<br />

of present day realities.<br />

Weekly classes revolved around a panorama of<br />

color slides, filmstrips, and records. Students<br />

brought individual talent to the fore by giving oral<br />

reports. All of this helped to unite isolated facts<br />

into a coherent study of world affairs.<br />

Mr. Nestinger explains<br />

one of the basic principles<br />

of social science<br />

Gail Whyte, Catherine Woo/ey, and Margaret Robertson experience<br />

one of the problems associated with frog dissection.<br />

Rising advancements in science and technology<br />

have brought more opportunities to the students<br />

of SMHS. The introduction of new courses, including<br />

a mini-course in ecology, has indicated the<br />

rise of student interest in this field. Also new this<br />

year was the honors program for freshmen and<br />

sophomores. On these levels students, were encouraged<br />

to apply theory to experimentation in<br />

both Biology and Chemistry.<br />

Evidence of scientific curiosity was seen in<br />

projects involving growing vegetation, dissecting<br />

specimens, reading science articles, and preparing<br />

bulletin boards.<br />

Experimenting and searching, two qualities indispensable<br />

in acquiring an understanding of the<br />

advancing and developing scientific world, became<br />

second nature to the SMHS chemist.<br />

Physics students enhanced their chemical knowhow<br />

by observing the phenomena of matter and<br />

energy and their relationship.<br />

The annual science fair gave students a chance<br />

to express their creativity and to share the invaluable<br />

knowledge they gained through scientific<br />

methods.

THE LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT: Mrs. Sara Munziaga, Miss Rhoda Marcus, Mr. Robert Walling, Sr. Mary Lucia<br />

Churiato, Miss Patricia Cholewinski, and Sr. Marlene Fritz.<br />

"iOle!" "Bon jour," "Auf Wiedersehen." If you<br />

had walked down any hall in SMHS and had heard<br />

one of these phrases you might have thought you<br />

were in Spain, France, or Germany. Chances are,<br />

you merely overheard the echoes of international<br />

dialogue.<br />

The language lab and resource room made available<br />

to students many aspects of European culture<br />

through tapes, records, charts, books, magazines,<br />

and filmstrips.<br />

Participation in discussion led to enjoyment and<br />

solution of the age old problem, "I can read and<br />

write it, but I can't speak it."<br />

This year, through the patient coaxing of their<br />

teachers, each student was able to achieve his goal.<br />

The students found the study of a foreign language<br />

to be an exciting and rewarding experience.


Religion reduces abstract principles<br />

to practical application<br />

With the help of Father George Erickson, St.<br />

Mary's Religion Department has tried to make students<br />

aware of their role as Christians in today's<br />

world.<br />

With more emphasis placed on personal application,<br />

the previously moaned words "religion<br />

class" now hold connotations that extend far beyond<br />

the classroom walls.<br />

Included in topics for intelligent discussions and<br />

often heated arguments were the new theology,<br />

when the time came for course selection. Electives<br />

were centered around specific modern texts such<br />

as THE IE5U5 PEOPLE, PARABLES OF PEANUTS, and<br />

This new system of religious education has<br />

brought the abstract into reality, and thus transformed<br />

religion from a subject into an overall<br />

THE CULTURAL ARTS DEPARTMENT: Miss Christine<br />

Molson, Mr. James DeRoma, and Mr. Edward Hagan.<br />

In the Cultural Arts Department, the students<br />

learned everything from painting a picture, to differentiating<br />

between Baroque and Renaissance<br />

music and reading a note, to designing a house, to<br />

baking an "orange kiss-me cake."<br />

From the Little Theater could be heard the voices<br />

of the SMHS chorus, and the instrumental music<br />

classes under the leadership of Mr. James DeRoma<br />

and Rev. Benjamin Dino.<br />

Meanwhile, back at the Home Economics room,<br />

Miss Christine Molson encouraged the girls to use<br />

their imaginations to solve the everyday problems<br />

of domesticity. While upstairs in the art room Mr.<br />

Edward Hagan assisted the students with sculpturing,<br />

lettering, and learning the principles of Art<br />

and Mechanical Drawing I and II.<br />

First attempts at vocalizing, planning a menu, or<br />

wielding a brush were awkward and timid. Experience<br />

gradually dispelled shyness and bold progress<br />

resulted.<br />

Business world summons<br />

SMHS students<br />

The ultimate aim of SMHS's Business Department<br />

is to prepare today's young adults for their profession<br />

in the whirlwind of growing American<br />

enterprise. Under the direction of Sister Helen<br />

O'Donnell, the department strived to achieve this<br />

goal by training in Typing I and II, Stenography I<br />

and II, and Secretarial Practice.<br />

The secretarial students had a chance to develop<br />

their skills by typing for the "Bye Bye Birdie" playbill.<br />

When the Religion, Language, or Social Studies<br />

departments needed duplications of vocational<br />

interest forms, programs for the language festival,<br />

or geographical maps and graphs, the typists were<br />

eager to accommodate. They also worked diligently<br />

on copy for the school publications.<br />

At the end of the academic year, deserving students<br />

earned Gregg awards according to their<br />

proficiency in typing and stenography.<br />

Associate business course, Merchandising and<br />

Selling and Retailing, also offered interested students<br />

the opportunity for job placement.<br />

This year representatives from Katherine Gibbs<br />

and Nancy Taylor Business Institutes visited with<br />

future secretaries to discuss the advantages of advanced<br />

business degrees.<br />

Phys Ed program meets fitness<br />

challenge of student body<br />

Freshman boys learn the fundamentals<br />

of playing "bombardment".<br />

When the bell signaled Gym classes, a whirlwind<br />

of students darted to locker rooms, frantically<br />

threw items helter-skelter in the hectic search for<br />

complete gym uniforms. Such speed was necessitated<br />

by a meager seven minute "change" allotment.<br />

Physical Education was considered a formal class<br />

in the curriculum, one necessary for graduation.<br />

Often, however, boys and girls alike thought of it<br />

as recreation. It was a chance to burn up energy by<br />

playing soccer, basketball, volleyball, "crab"<br />

soccer, or floor hockey. Exercises were a necessary<br />

evil, good for the shedding of a few unwanted<br />

ounces.<br />

Also incorporated into the physical education<br />

program were courses geared to strengthen the<br />

mind: First Aid, Civil Defense, and Home Nursing.<br />

Guidance Department provides<br />

insight and information for<br />

future planning<br />

To each student falls the monumental problem<br />

of planning his future.<br />

Understanding the importance of this task, the<br />

Guidance Department of SMHS provided insight<br />

and information for each student in order that he<br />

might make the right decision.<br />

The guidance office, nucleus of the department's<br />

activities, contained college brochures, handbooks,<br />

magazines, and other pertinent information for<br />

the concerned student.<br />

With the aid of Mrs. Jeanne Polinski, Department<br />

Director, and the level counselors, many childhood<br />

Sr. Mary urges students to remember that the card catalogue is always the first<br />

place to go for references.<br />

Library, tool of learning<br />

A indispensable aspect of academic life at St.<br />

Mary's was the school library.<br />

Inside, would-be scholars scurried back and forth<br />

from the card catalogue to the Periodic Guide,<br />

trying to recall their freshman library orientation<br />

course, before giving up and joining their friends<br />

gathered around BRITANNICA.<br />

Other more fashion-minded intellectuals, gazed<br />

intently through the latest copies of SEVENTEEN.<br />

And still there were the rugged few, cast of iron<br />

will power, who went to research and study.<br />

Between English term papers and history research<br />

reports, were sundry little assignments such<br />

as language projects and science experiments all<br />

facilitated by the assistance of Sister Mary Cosgrove,<br />

Librarian. 43<br />

When one views the myriad<br />

extra curricular activities available<br />

at SMHS, one is breathless at the<br />

amount of energy poured into<br />

them. Herein leadership and<br />

responsibility were first tried on<br />

for size.<br />

Each student found himself<br />

caught up in a community sharing<br />

that supplied opportunities for<br />

major and minor contributions.<br />

The diligent preparations for<br />

the Christmas Ball manifested<br />

themselves in the glittering smiles<br />

of an evening.<br />

The issues and problems debated<br />

by the Student Council<br />

were solved with compromise.


The deadline date for an article<br />

with satisfying results.<br />

The screaming, yelling, and<br />

constant hours of practice were<br />

reflected by the standing ovation<br />

on the final night of ''Bye Bye<br />

Birdie."<br />

No doubt all this organizational<br />

participation put some practical<br />

flesh on the verbal skeleton lauding<br />

giving as better than receiving.<br />

In this giving, whether it be as a<br />

member of a basketball team or a<br />

literary staff, each student experienced<br />

an emotion that can<br />

only be called friendship.<br />

Boundless energy characterizes student activities


Sceptre 72<br />

We did it our way<br />

Yearbook moderators, Mr. Edward Hagan and Miss Patricia Cholewinski, discuss an upcoming deadline while<br />

Denise Usa and Gary Nowak think o! other things.<br />

The nucleus of SCEPTRE for 72 was a radical<br />

group of innovators called the staff. Early in September<br />

the staff vowed to be unique, flexible,<br />

versatile, and mainly unconventional. Such energy,<br />

however, was duly controlled by the moderators,<br />

Miss Patricia Cholewinski and Mr. L. Edward<br />

Hagan. ,<br />

Idea after idea was debated, written, and revised,<br />

until it became fit matter to appear on SCEPTRE'S<br />

then empty pages. Early deadlines had to be met,<br />

typists translated illegible penmanship, artists drew<br />

46<br />

lay-outs, photographers canvassed the school for<br />

candid shots, reporters tracked down worthwhile<br />

information, and the exhausted remnants captioned<br />

pictures — all in seven months.<br />

The publishing of SCEPTRE for 72 was an exuberant<br />

and enjoyable challenge to those involved.<br />

Having met this challenge, the staff looks back on<br />

the wonderful moments involved in putting together<br />

the 72 edition, and smiles knowingly at the<br />

small miracle you are now so casually holding in<br />

your hands.

Ideas became words, words became sentences,<br />

sentences became articles, articles became print,<br />

and print became tradition.<br />

When THE CROWN arrived, every student<br />

settled back to enjoy the printed words, many times<br />

unconscious of the hardships and long tedious<br />

hours that went into their publication.<br />

From room 111 words such as "page plan,"<br />

"word count," and "dummy" emanated as the<br />

staff rushed to meet its deadline by plowing<br />

through copy, headlines, and last minute pictures.<br />

Student Council engineers harmonious year<br />

At the core of student functions, bridging<br />

faculty-student relations, stood the SMHS Student<br />

Council. Members, elected by the students themselves,<br />

not only strove to maintain order, but also<br />

met often to discuss the daily problems of school<br />

life.<br />

Members suggested and planned various social<br />

activities throughout the year under the direction<br />

of moderator, Mr. Robert Walling. The Halloween<br />

Parade, the Student Council Dance, the numerous<br />

and worthwhile assemblies all demanded the cooperation,<br />

courtesy, and strength of character of<br />

each council member.<br />

The Council engineered an exceptionally harmonious<br />

year revitalizing traditions and inaugurating<br />

a number of firsts. The pep rallies injected unprecedented<br />

zip into school spirit and the basketball<br />

season. Executive officers were elected from<br />

the junior as well as the senior class for the first<br />

time.<br />

When evaluating council achievements, we must<br />

reserve our opinions for the future. "You cannot<br />

observe every aspect of a picture with your nose<br />

pressed up against it. You have to step back and<br />

take a look."<br />

Students receive a helping hand from<br />

Guidance Aides and Library Aides<br />

Doubt and uncertainty were quickly remedied in<br />

the Guidance Department this year with the helping<br />

hands of a few students, know to all, as SMHS<br />

guidance aides. They seemed to know the who,<br />

what, when, how, and especially where of any of<br />

the limitless career information available to every<br />

student. As each new problem arose we knew that<br />

a solution was near at hand in the guise of an eager<br />

and devoted guidance aide.<br />

To lighten the daily workload of Sister Mary and<br />

seventy-five students gave of their time to work in<br />

the library.<br />

The job of these library aides included checking<br />

the passes of those entering and leaving the library,<br />

looking for requested periodicals, and checking<br />

out books.<br />

While serving fellow students their own knowledge<br />

of library science skills was augmented.<br />

Bye Bye Birdie is the story of a rock and roll singer<br />

who is about to be inducted into the army. The singer<br />

Conrad Birdie has thick sideburns, slicked back hair,<br />

loud costumes, and an all round Elvis Presley look,<br />

which drives thousands of girls wild. Conrad's publicity<br />

agent, Albert Peterson is the nervous Mama's<br />

boy type and it's only through the efforts of his loyal<br />

secretary, Rose Alvarez, that he and Conrad keep<br />

moving forward in the world. Before Conrad's induction,<br />

Rosie concocts one final national publicity stunt.<br />

He will bid a typical American teenage girl goodbye<br />

with "One Last Kiss." Kim MacAffe of Sweet Apple,<br />

Ohio is chosen, much to the dismay of her new steady,<br />

Hugo Peabody.<br />

Birdie's arrival in Sweet Apple turns the quiet little<br />

town into chaos.<br />

The decision is made to have Conrad bestow his<br />

final kiss to Kim on the Ed Sullivan show with the entire<br />

nation watching. Rosie, who is infuriated by Albert's<br />

refusal to leave his domineering mother, May,<br />

and marry her, encourages the enraged Hugo to stop<br />

Conrad from kissing Kim.<br />

Bye Bye Birdie Lives On!<br />

Conrad's "Honestly Sincere" approach causes chaos in Sweet Apple.<br />

63<br />

The last of the applause has died away, the tears and<br />

the laughter have ceased, and the props and scenery<br />

are all stored away.<br />

But Bye Bye Birdie lives on! The friendships made<br />

during practices and the warm memories shared by<br />

all can never be forgotten.<br />

Many things contributed to the satisfied glow which<br />

surrounded Birdie, the most important of which was<br />

leadership.<br />

Under the unyielding inspiration of Theodore Kurdyla,<br />

Robert Haralla, Peter Runfolo, and their assistants,<br />

Bye Bye Birdie just naturally had to progress to . .,<br />

triumphant finale.<br />

The experience of Birdie has enriched our lives in<br />

many ways. We now know the satisfaction of hard<br />

work, the chaos of last minute details, the wonderment<br />

of feeling our admiration for our directors blossom into<br />

a loving trust, the hysterics of seeing our mildmannered<br />

Student-Council president transformed into<br />

the hip swinging Conrad Birdie, but most important of<br />

all the pride in having had a share in something truly<br />

great.<br />

sports spotlight, the S.M.H.S. Cross Country team<br />

proved to be a worthy rival by sprinting through a<br />

successful 71-72 season.<br />

Hurdling the obstacles of long practices and<br />

unpredictable autumn weather the Cross Country<br />

team showed unrelenting spirit in striving for the<br />

best possible performance.<br />

An inspiration to the team Coach, Mr. Stephen<br />

Nestinger, never failed to encourage improvement<br />

and offer praise for a job well done.<br />

Individual Talent Plus Team Work Build Morale<br />

Tom Gulick comments to his teammates, "If you can't shoot just get the heck out of here."<br />

One of the favorite highlights of the St. Mary's sports scene was Varsity<br />

Basketball.<br />

This year the Eagles proved they had the "fever" by the exhilirating<br />

teamwork and fine sportsmanship displayed in every contest.<br />

Although the season wasn't one of continual triumph, the unity and<br />

pride with which the Eagles played was impressive and gratifying to all<br />

who watched.<br />

Under the coaching and encouragement of Mr. John Scordinsky the<br />

Eagle players experienced much during the 71-72 basketball season.<br />

The excitement of games with cross town rival Hoffman, coming so<br />

close to upsetting St. Peter's, and beating Madison in the last few seconds<br />

of the game.<br />

Playing their last year as Eagles were seniors; Stan Knast, Craig Beatty,<br />

Tom Boychuk, Joe Belmonte, Jim Shannon and Co-Captains — Tom<br />

Gulick, John Carroll and Jay Thomas.<br />

The Eagles ended their season with an 8-14 record but reviewing<br />

their performance in all the games, an age old adage comes to mind:<br />

It's not whether you win or lose, "But How You Play the Came!"<br />

Eagles—synonymous<br />

with tears, cheers,<br />

unity, victory<br />

The 1971-72 "Junior Eagles" showed fire and fight<br />

during this year's basketball season.<br />

Many students, formally only Varsity fans, showed<br />

up in throngs for J.V. games.<br />

With the tremendous enthusiasm of Coach Mr.<br />

Charles Nuziale the team hustled for a 10-10 record at<br />

the close of the season.<br />

The spirit of the Junior Varsity team, with Co-Captains<br />

Paul Delaney and Jeff Sprague, gave to the overwhelming<br />

crowd, the inspiration to cheer their team<br />

on to victory.<br />

Loud And Clear<br />

Varsity cheerleaders declare, "Eagles are best, of all the rest!<br />

Although they possessed as much talent and skill<br />

as any other athletes at Saint Mary's, the varsity<br />

cheerleaders never received any recognition for<br />

the enthusiasm and spirit that inspired many players<br />

to victory for SMHS.<br />

Strenuous exercise and extra practice characterized<br />

the varsity squad this year as they mastered<br />

skill in acrobatics. The precision and punctuality<br />

exhibited in their performances revealed much of<br />

the hard work and the amount of time they devoted<br />

to practice under the leadership of captain,<br />

Christine Norman and co-captains Eileen Carey<br />

and Diane Gorman and reflected the hard work of<br />

their coach, Mrs. Phyllis Brennan.<br />

The Team Behind the Team<br />

Leadership, pride, and enthusiasm, these three<br />

words characterize the 1971 - 72 Junior Varsity<br />

Cheerleading squad. Through determination and<br />

long hours of dedicated practice they have developed<br />

great possibilities for Varsity membership next<br />

year. Their enthusiasm has moved both spectators<br />

and players to overwhelming victories over opposing<br />

teams. The spirit displayed by these girls have<br />

set a mood filled with encouragement for the games<br />

that followed.<br />

So with devotion and determination these twelve<br />

girls have continued to instill a splash of vigor,<br />

willingness, and desire for athletics at SMHS.<br />

Eaglettes Combine<br />

Action and Effort<br />

to Bring Success<br />

Under the supervision of their novice coach Miss<br />

Mary Jo Kuegle, the Varsity and Junior Varsity Eaglettes<br />

continued their fine performances of years past and<br />

made this season an overall success.<br />

During the 71-72 season the squad ventured to such<br />

places as Mater Dei and Edison for victories and successfully<br />

defeated their hometown rivals Hoffman.<br />

Playing their last year for the Eaglettes are Paula<br />

Crabko, Lynn Henry, Coleen O'Leary and Co-Captains<br />

showing of the Junior "Birds" the gap will be hopefully<br />

bridged at the beginning of next year.<br />

Varewell to you and to the<br />

youth I have spent with you.<br />

You have sung to me in my<br />

aloneness and of your longing I<br />

have built a tower in the sky.<br />

But now our sleep has fled and<br />

our dream is over and it is no<br />

longer dawn.


When through one man a little more love and goodness,<br />

a little more light and truth comes into the world,<br />

then that man's life has had meaning.<br />

Alfred Delp<br />

Dedication<br />

Painful as change may be, we cannot remain forever<br />

the carefree children of yesterday. And so we<br />

must grow and there is no growth without change.<br />

We have grown and changed much in the last<br />

four years. Each of us mirrors a mosaic of all past<br />

experiences, rewarding or frightening, happy or<br />

sorrowful, every one has left a lasting impression.<br />

Just as we are shaped by events so are we also<br />

shaped by people.<br />

One person at St. Mary's has been an example to<br />

us in all he has accomplished. Mr. Thomas Rooney<br />

has contributed to many aspects of our high school<br />

years.<br />

In the classroom, he was a willing and able teacher<br />

who steered us through the rigors of Latin and did<br />

away with the monotony of English. Athletics, an<br />

important part of our lives, expanded and thrived<br />

under his direction. In our personal lives he was a<br />

friend, to joke with, talk with, question, always<br />

knowing he understood. As we look to the future<br />

we all have something to bring the world, but we<br />

leave something behind too. An earnest teacher,<br />

a loyal friend, a person with very short hair, but a<br />

very big heart.<br />

To Mr. Thomas Rooney, you dedicated your life<br />

to us; we, the Class of <strong>1972</strong>, dedicate our future to<br />

what you taught us!<br />

Though nothing can<br />

bring back the hour<br />

of splendor in the grass,<br />

of glory in the flower;<br />

We will grieve not,<br />

rather find strength<br />

in what remains<br />

behind.<br />

A time for growing up too soon<br />

We play only to win now<br />

We learn only too well that<br />

In order to win we must lose<br />

something, often someone.<br />
