DEDICATION If it is true as Henry Adams once stated, that "A teacher affects eternity," then Brother James Brown has certainly imparted his influence throughout LaSalle and the men of tomorrow. He has taught, lectured, coached and befriended students for thirty years as a Brother. In thirteen years at LaSalle, he has shared his afternoons with the students as moderator of the crew and swimming teams. The same sincerity and helpfulness shown by Brother in moderating these sports is also related to the students through his teaching. In his tenure at LaSalle, Brother has gained a reputation as a knowledgable and thorough math teacher. In his sophomore geometry classes, he instills a sense of self-discipline and logical thinking so necessary in any endeavor. Also during the week, Brother James instructs religion and computer math at the High School, investing his weekends in tutoring pupils in the practical "hands-on" value of the computers at the College. Through his logic and insight acquired by math, and through his understanding and initiative wrought by extracurricular activities and study of religion, he guides the student in making decisions in life. Because be is a well rounded person, Brother affords a strong and valuable influence at LaSalle on his students. " Ergo" (to borrow a well known expression from his math jargon), the Senior Class dedicates the 1970 Blue and Gold to Brother James Brown .

A yearbook should chronicle events, catalogue pictures and information, and reflect the spirit and ideals of the school it represents. We, the staff of the 1970 Blue and Gold, have attempted to fulfill all these aims. We know, however, that our 200 page production will hardly reveal the inner reality of La Salle College High School. For there are certain intangibles, an indefinable essence which mere words and pictures can not capture. Antoine De Saint Exupery has expressed a similar thought in his masterpiece The Little Prince: " What is essential is invisible to the eye." Indeed, at La Salle, the essential may be invisible to the eye, the camera, the pen. Nevertheless, we have attempted to present our vision of what La Salle means to US--a certain seriousness, a certain madnes~ut always La Salle.

We learn from people. Books give us facts and data, but people-teachers, coaches, friends-ignite the spark of learning and discovery. Competent teachers by their disciplined minds and personal values exhibit qualities for us to emulate; successful (not necessarily winning ) coaches instill the fire of healthful competition; close friends accept us for what we are. The most important knowledge a student may have is that of himself-his personality, his character. Relationships with others-teachers, coaches, friends-lead him to self-awareness and self-understanding necessary to his growth and maturity.

The " tardy bell " of 8:40 tolls the beginning of a school day. From that moment a student's mind becomes a mosaic of thoughts--equations and symbols, treat1es and ecumenism. The perceptive student learns to distinguish the important from the irrelevant, what's going to be asked in a test and what isn't. Lunch , a " study," and gym provide the needed relief periods, moments of com1c relief from the seriousness of classwork. These are times for jokes, for relaxation , for planning the after-school activity or the weekend's social affairs.

At La Salle activities range from a formal organization with rules and a definite philosophy, like the Student Council, to a group of seniors participating in a spontaneous ice hockey game or "tuna tourney." On a clear fall or spring day it sometimes looks as if all 850 students are spread out over our 70 acre campus, so great is participation during these two seasons especially. The number of activities at La Salle also continues to grow. Just this year a Glee Club, Health Club and Soccer Club have been added to an already long and varied list. All this reflects a student body with diverse interests and enough concern to channel their energies into positive actions.

La Salle seniors have won 12 Merit Scholarships this year. This total is more than any other graduating class in our history and more than any other Catholic high school in the area. Th is high number is a tribute to the free spirit of inquiry into the arts and sciences at La Salle. But our school is more than " a factory tor the intellect." It is a place to have fun, to enjoy friendships; it is a haven for the " Iron Duck," a "stadium" for Frisbee tournaments, a pond that harbors the "Great White Whale." In short, there is a joy of life, an understanding of laughter and comedy as an essential part of maturing.

administration

Brother Hugh McNicholas has shown in his first year as principal of LaSalle that he is a progressive educator. Brother Hugh has during his first year helped established the new Parent- StudentTeacher Association, laid the foundations tor Humanities programs in all four years and given the students and teachers more freedom in choosing courses and electives in the coming year. It should come as no surprise to those who know Brother Hugh personally that he should launch so many programs so soon . For Brother has proved his administrative abilities in the LaSalle College of the Philippines where he was president for a number of years. It is much to the advantage of LaSalle that so capable an administrator and so personable a friend has decided to lead LaSalle mto the new decade and the future.

30


Brother William Fealy regrets, of course, the fact that his position of Assistant Principal takes him out of the classroom, but Brother is also aware of his position's importance. Brother attends to the specific details and practical matters of school functions, from assemblies to advice, from announcements to office procedures. With administrative competence and assurance, Brother William attends to the smooth functioning of every school day and school events. Goldhammer, besides Brother Albert moderating the Student Council, has, perhaps, the most thankless job on campus, that of school disciplinarian. Brother approaches his position optimistically and positively, however. Brother attempts to counsel rather than warn , help rather than harm, befriend rather than isolate. Perhaps, Brother's attitude can be summed up best in the poster which hangs from his office wall-Shalom .

GUIDANCE The most important function of the educational process is guidance, whether it is through personal contact of teacher to student or through personal interviews with trained guidance counselors. LaSalle guidance counselors have three important duties to perform. First, they set up personal conferences with students to work out any problems the students may have in their schoolwork Second, they relate to students what courses are required for later educational plans. Third, they explain college requirements and curricula so the student may decide what college will best suit his talents and abilities.

RELIGION The Rel igion Department realizes that religion is not a list of what you do; it's a part of what you are. With a basis in the Scriptures, Church history and comparative religions, the Religion Department has branched into sociology, psychology and morality in its attempt to educate " the whole man." From this approach the Christian will be given the necessary background and knowledge for right thinking and responsible actions. Reverend John Macort, M.A., Religion Ill, IV.

HUMANITIES The proper study of mankind is man. In the Senior Humanities Program, man, or more particularly 20th Century American man, is studied from three angles. Mr. David Diehl traces man's actions historically. Brother William Linahan theorizes on man's motivation and drives-his psychology. Also Mr. Gerald Tremblay attempts to analyze man's creative endeavors in his literature. Music, films, art. and books give the students insights into the modern age showing us to be the natural successors to a rich and varied cultural heritage.

HISTORY

History, as Thomas Jefferson long ago insisted, is at the very heart of education. For history is man's record of his past actions that have molded today's society-its progress and its problems. The History Department knows that a simple recitation of facts and dates are meaningless unless those data are put in their proper perspective and shown to be relevant to society in which we live. In short, to know where we are today we must recall yesterday and the relationship between the two.

ENGLISH The study of English is the study of communication and communication is the beginning of understanding. At La Salle communication takes many forms-rhetoric, public speaking and literary analysis. Besides these basic courses, however, the curriculum has been expanded to include other forms of self-expression, especially creative writing, journalism and film making. The graduate of LaSalle, then, will have an intensive and extensive background in the literary genres and the cinema; he will also have an insight as to his capabilities and limitations in creative writing.

LANGUAGES

A student at LaSalle may now take four years of a modern or classical language. With Latin now optional, students may begin in Freshman year with Spanish, German, and French, if they so choose. In recent years language teachers have taken students on tours of such countries as Germany, Austria, France, Rome, and England, in hopes that personal contact with the peoples of these countries might give an understanding of the cultu re and the people as well as the language. The tours have been highly successful as vacations and as occasions for practicing what has been learned in the classroom .

MATHEMATICS In today's technological society, Mathematics has played an important role in the development of many new ideas and theories. An equation that once took ten minutes to solve can now be done in a matter of seconds. Under the direction of Brother Ralph Asher, the Math Department strives to prepare the student for this new and changing society. After a basic program of algebra and geometry, the senior has an opportunity to specialize. The future engineer can study Linear and Matrix Programming under Mr. Wagner. With the use of the facilities of LaSalle College , Bro. James Brown teaches the fundamentals of programming and running a computer. Other courses are Probability and major courses in Pre-Calculus and Calculus.

Mr. Michael Bruno, B.A., 80, Physics, Chemistry, Glee Club Moderator, Tennis Coach.

SCIENCE Ecology and environment control are prominent words in today's news. Man is just now fully realizing the waste of our natural resources and pollution of our air and water as side effects of scientific advancement. Since these facts of life have become known, it behooves us all to have at least a basic knowledge of science and relate that knowledge of today's scientific news. At LaSalle, each freshman has an Introductory Physical Science Course for the first time. Of course, chemistry, physics, and biology are still the essential courses of the Science Department but with advanced topics in biology, a student may now have three years of a science.

ART Art is man's attempt at creating the beautiful, at finding order in chaos, at making the imaginary real. In art, man uses his highest intellectual faculties in creation , be it th rough poetry, music, or painting . Brother Fred Stelmach allows students the freedom of self-expression in their pursuit of the " beautiful. " While commenting on and critically analyzing their progress and special skills, Brother Fred instills his knowledge and insight gained through years of theory and practice .

TYPING Of all the practical skills a student develops while at LaSalle, typing is the one skill wh ich will become more and more invaluable as the student pursues his educational and vocational goals. All freshmen are required to take the course and quickly, as research papers and essays pile up, they realize the value of typing under Brother Edmund Miller's expert instruction.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION A necessary element of any school curriculum is physical recreation-a time and place between classes where one can temporarily postpone intellectual pursuits in search of tun and physical activity At LaSalle, " gym" and " pool " fulfill this need for relaxation and escape. Most students find basketball , swimming, football and softball refreshing and stimulating. Others may prefer individual exercises like push-ups and " doing the ladder."


Mrs. Mary Mountain, B.A., Librarian, Library Club Moderator. Mrs. Jean Ellis, Assistant Librarian.

LIBRARY STAFF Not very long ago, LaSalle's library was used for little more than taking out books. Now, however, the library can be considered the major resource area of the school with more than ten thousand volumes and over one hundred magazine subscriptions. Students also now use the library for study with the introduction this year of study corrals. Music aficiandos find the tape recorders and record players a welcome relief for relaxing moments between classes. Mrs. Mary Mountain and Mrs. Jean Ellis have transferred the library Into a center of learning and activity.

OFFICE STAFF Professional , competent, and friendly best describe Mr. Charles Hilpl, Mrs. Catherine Lull , and Mrs. Rosalie Comerford, LaSalle's office staff.

STUDENT COUNCIL When soon we are separated by a thousand tomorrows, the three of us will undoubtedly remember that we once represented an entire body of students, that Jack, Joe, and Jackie were considered somewhat important names at LaSalle. We will remember the dreams we held for this community, and the problem of balancing a runaway idealism with the realities of a complex situation . Few of our dreams were ever realized, but we soon came to appreciate more fully a simple but satisfying involvement with life at LaSalle. In all of this, the students were enormously kind to us, caring enough to offer help, to forget our mistakes, and to work as hard as the three of us. Often, we received total credit for something that would have been impossible without the help of many. We can never really repay the students, faculty, and administration , who have come to mean a lot to us, and we leave office feeling somehow that we have not given as much as we have received . We can only write these few words in the Blue and Gold, and hope that each of you will take it personally, and know that we are truly grateful, and have found the entire year a fulfilling experience.

Emile de Becque (Russ Windsor), a French plantation owner on the South Pacific ISland, wooes Nurse Nellie Forbush (Kathi ~cCauley) to the tune of "Some Enchanted Evening."

SOUTH PACIFIC The elegance and mystery of the tropical islands filled LaSalle's auditorium on the nights of March 6, 7, 8 and 13, 14, 15, when the pulitzer prize winning musical South Pacific was presented. The touching story of a castaway Frenchman 's love for a Naval nurse and their involvement with a bunch of comical Sea Bees, set in the serious tone of World War II, unfolded under the direction of Brother Gene Graham. Lighting, scenery, orchestration, and acting were professionally united on the LaSalle stage to leave the packed-house audiences spellbound. Since bringing Broadway musicals to LaSalle two years ago, Brother Gene has involved more students in the shows than any other activity m LaSalle's history. From the Cast to the Business Committee, students have come together in a display of real school spirit to put on what many professionals consider the best high school production m the entire area.

The rowdy, fun lov.ng sailors of South Pacific whoop it up as the 1sland merchant, Bloody Mary (Melinda Shelton), d1splays some of her Tango techniques for them. With the encouragement of h1s g~rl friends, Nellie prepares to "Wash that man right out of her hair", realizing that the romance with the Frenchman. Emile de Becque, will never work out.

SCHOOL NEWSPAPER The school newspaper has dramatically broken from the past and traditions.

War, the moratorium, politics and national priorities received as much emphasis as the traditional news and sports of the LaSalle campus.

FRENCH CLUB The French Club was fortunate this year in having French exchange student Charles Stankiewicz for most of the year. Charles gave students first-hand experience with the French language, its people, and its culture. His willingness to exchange ideas and his co-operative nature made Charles many friends and gave students a more realistic knowledge of France.

Don Carr, Joe Timoney, and their dates arnve at Whitemarsh with expectations of a memorable night.

JUNIOR PROM A junior prom is always a memorable social event because for many it is the first time that he or she has to come to grips with formal attire. Crises such as the right tuxedo, or "her favorite flowers" confront the boy, while the girl must worry about everything from tripping over her formal gown to the right shade of eye make-up. The 1969 Junior Prom held at Whitemarsh Country Club provided the Class of '70 and their dates with such an event. After an evening of conversation, dancing, and even singing with the Topics, most of the couples then attended post prom celebration at the Sheraton Motor Inn, thus rounding off a truly memorable evening.

FOOTBALL Spirited by increased student support, the 1969 Explorers provided LaSalle with one of the most exciting seasons in the past few years. The team narrowly missed contention for the Catholic League title as it scored a spectacular upset over defending champion Cardinal Dougherty in the season opener and defeated arch-rival Bishop McDevitt in an exciting come-from-behind game. The Explorers were powered by a fine offense, led by seniors Bill Loughery and Mike Brett, producmg the needed points m cntical situations. Following the steady hard-hitting example set by All-Catholics AI Salvitti and Pat Mclaughlin, the defense stopped virtually all ground gains by LaSalle's competition. The combination of these factors and high team morale gave the Explorers a winning season, and earned for LaSalle a respectable third place in the Catholic League standings.

Only a small group of veterans returned to the latesummer practice sessions and this lack of experience showed in the early meets. However, under the able guidance of Mr. Martin Stanzack, a determined bunch of inexperienced harriers, led by senior All-Catholic standout Joe Baker, reached respectability and proved to be formidable competition for the rest of the league.

BOWLING This year, the bowling team suffered a disappointing season at the hands of an exceptionally tough Catholic league. Lacking the consistency needed for a great team, the keglers compensated with high team morale. Under the leadership of Mr. Bernard McCabe, team participation manifested itself to the fullest in the determination and hard work needed to discover and correct its flaws. The high team spirit generated this year should prove to be a valuable asset for the team In the next few years.

BASKETBAU It is a disappointment when an Obie O'Brien team ends its season under .500-it has happened only twice in thirty-five years. This season, though, is a more acute disappointment because it is Obie's last season as coach of LaSalle's Varsity Basketball Team . He has decided to take a position as Director of Development with the LaSalle Administration. This season, unproductive as it may seem to many, will not dim the lustre of Obie' s accomplishments-well over 500 victories, City and Catholic League Championships, tournament trophies and players who went on to become stars in college and professional basketball. There are no excuses for this season's 6 and 13 record. Obie decided to give vital experience to the underclassmen and chose eight for the varsity. The lone seniors, Jack Brinkmann , Ray Wiley, and Bill Loughery, provided the team with enthusiasm and experience. Underclassmen like Steve Wiley, Ed Cooper, Bob Loughery, and Tom Russo will make up next year' s varsity and will benefit much from their varsity experience.

FRESHMAN BASKETBALL

A freshman basketball team will get no headlines, receive no awards. Yet the season is important to the players themselves, the Frosh, the parents and the coach. The games give the players the opportunity to display their talents, learn from their mistakes, and gain valuable experience in playing against those players they will face in JV and varsity.

TRACK Track is a blend of poetry and rhythm, a mixture of fluidity and strength, a combination of desire and emotion. Winning, of course, is important. Being able to run faster, jump higher and throw farther than others for your team and yourself spurs one to better performances. However, Coaches Stanczak and Tuppeny realize and try to impress upon the minds of their athletes that gradual improvement and dedication to a goal-a lower time, a longer distance-can be as satisfying to the individual as victory. It is this philosophy which has led to the track team's improvement in Mr. Stanczak's tenure as coach.

" Let's see . . is that Arthur Miller, Henry Miller or Mrs. Miller that I have to look up?"


Jack Bauerle has combined sports and activities in his four years at LaSalle and has excelled in both. As a member of the Swimming Team, Jack has won a number of individual Catholic League championships and has helped his team to four straight City Championships, making All-Catholic In the process. As the secretary of the Student Council, it is Jack's duty to keep records of meetings and events and handle the monies. He accomplished these tasks accurately and flawlessly. Jack has during his high school career gained many friends with his pleasant personality and winning sense of humor.

Joe Camardo was instrumental in changing the format and style of this year"s school newspaper. As editor, his attempt was to make the newspaper more relevant to students' needs. Joe succeeded in introducing essays, poetry and a more subjective journalism into the newspaper. A second activity which Joe helped to lead was the Student Council. Joe, as vice-president, introduced the idea of a modified dress code which allows students the option of casual attire in warmer months. Joe's most outstanding qualities may be his aggressiveness and his intensity with which he attacks a problem. As a National Merit Scholarship winner, Joe has shown outstanding scholastic ability; as an editor and vicepresident, he has initiated new ideas into La Salle' s life style.

Quiet and unassuming in student life, Pat Gallagher, nevertheless, is a fierce competitor In sports. One of the best athletes ever to attend La Salle, Pat has helped the swimming team to numerous titles and has won accolades as an All-American swimmer in the backstroke Besides Pat's prowess in athletics, he has shown interest in other school activities and was elected president of his homeroom, 70. Pat was also elected his other three years to the Student Council. In the daily class routine Pat goes almost unnoticed; it is not until he dons his swimsuit that it becomes apparent that Pat is a swimmer of eminence and extraordinary talent with a matching will to win.

Bill Mcintyre, through his involvement in all aspects of La Salle life, has done much for the betterment of La Salle. As a student, Bill ranks in the first qulntile of the Senior Class. As an athlete, he started on the varsity football squad in his junior and senior years, thus earning the Evening Bulletin's Scholar-Athlete Award. However, Bill's accomplishments do not end there. Actively engaged in the Spirit Club and Student Council since sophomore year, he has played an integral part on the Dance Committee and served as the first Junior Class Representative last year. Since the end of football season, "Mugsy" has dedicated his time to " South Pacific" as production manager and to the Senior Prom, as Committee Chairman.

As a scholarship winner to La Salle, John McKeown possesses recognized ability and has developed it in many ways during his four years here at La Salle. A member of every advanced course ava1lable, he has earned three scholastic letters and has been awarded membership m the National Honor Society. But he does not limit h1s interests merely to academics. He 1S recognized by his fellow students as an authority on world affa1rs. Diligent, yet reserved, Jack ably fills the demanding post of President of the Student Council. As a three year member of the Wisterian, he has left a mark of creativtty and ideologtcal motivation.

Although best known for his kicking prowess on the football and soccer fields, Ed Schmidt has played an important part in many other aspects of La Salle. One of the strongest and most consistent kickers in the Catholic League, " Herman" is the most accurate placekicker in La Salle's history, and he kicked the first field goal in forty years of LaSalle football. Ed, who is an avid soccer enthusiast, took upon himself the responsibility of forming and running the promtstng Soccer Club without faculty assistance. This past winter and spnng, Ed dedicated much of his time to " South Pactfic" as Publicity Manager. A member of a graduating class, distinguished with standouts in almost every f1eld , " Herman," one of the two seniors awarded the Rotary Club's Leadershtp Award, has quietly brought upon himself recognition as an outstanding senior. It is not an understatement to say that Tom Stewart has contributed more time and effort to his fellow students and La Salle than any other senior. Known best for his work In the Intramural Program, Tom scheduled games, supplied referees, and tabulated statistics and scores for all Intramural sports. Besides this herculean task, Tom worked for the Student Council in general and the Dance Committee in particular setting up the highly successful bi-weekly mixers. "Spock's" organizational skills and his intensive and extensive work have benefited virtually all La Salle students. His genuine Interest In his school and his sincere appraoch have made Tom truely an outstanding senior.

Betng part of high school means more than mere attendance, it means involvement. One student who is truly a part of the LaSalle community is Ben Ventresca. Since entenng LaSalle four years ago, Ben has not only made it a point to become involved, but he has also taken upon himself important responstbilities and jobs. He has served as Technical Director for the musicals for the past three years, and as Editor-tn-Chief of the BLUE AND GOLD this year. For his quality of leadershtp, Ben has been granted the Rotary Club Leadership Award His enthusiasm for LaSalle is exemplified by his membership in the Spirit Club, Band, Soccer Club and Dance Committee. Yet, wtth all this Ben has maintained a high scholastic average, and earned the esteem of faculty and students alike.
