The 1968 LaSalle Varsity Baseball Team capped off a remarkable season by winning the Catholic League Championship as they defeated St. John Neumann 5-2 on June thle 8th. Aklng with thle Catholic League title. the Explorers accom' ptished another impressive feat ak>ng the way. The team ended the year with a number one ranking in The Philadelphia In' quirer's rankings for ali-Southeastern Pennsylvania with a 21-4 record. It might be interest· ing to add that laSalle had been ranked number one for the previous four weeks. which meant a good two-thirds of the season. Another interesting fact, which had been revealed to coach Joe Parisi. was that the Expk>rers were also ranked number one in the entire state of Pennsylvania at one point during the season according to an unofficial rank· ing in another part of the state. So, as a result of the publicity concerning the team. the Ex· plorers found themselves going Into the title game as the favor-

The tllsk of winning the championship game woukl be difficult, nonetheless. laSalle wouk! be going up against the Southern Diviston's MVP Rob Carfagno. who was undefeated (12-{}) as a varsity baseball pitcher. But the Explorers cook! at least match that with the Northern Division's MVP, Gene Schall (12-1), going on the mound for them. laSalle jumped off to an ear· Iy 3-0 lead in the top of the first when Jeff Peek, the explorer's c~ter fielder and second hitter in the lineup, scored from third on a balk. Peek had been hit by a pitch to reach first, went to second on Schall's single, was advanced to third on cleanup hitter Tom Poehlmann's single to left, and finally scored the first run. Jack Stanczak, the right fielder and fifth hitter, scored Schall on a sacrifice fly to left. The third run was tallied when 8 hit by Bill Watts, who ended the gamewith three hits and a great diving catch in left, scored Poe:Imann. The Explor-

ers added another run in the second when first baseman Ter· ry Burke got on with two out, stole second, advanced to third on Peek's hit, and eventually scored on a hit by Schall. After two runs by Neumann In the third, laSalle again scored a run, the final run of the game, in the fourth when Burke singled,

stole second, and scored on Tony Cassetti single, who wer 2 for 4 In the game. Other noll ble efforts include catcher E Weber who threw out a runn~ attempting to steal in the firl and shortstop Chris Massell who ended the game by turni a double play.

The 1966 team won the Catholic League Championship at Eagle Lodge by beating 14 other teams. LaSalle (487) won over its nearest competition, Ryan (50?), McDevitt (508), and OHara (517). All Catholic hon· ors were gathered by George Pe'

trellis 76, Joe Bonargo 80, Pete Williamson 81. Keith Dicciani 8\, and Pete Banmiller 63. La· Salle has captured 8 out of the last 10 championships with George Petrellis winning the in' dividual title.

Mrs. Linda Donahue, who every now and then will scream "Silencia" when her class gets a bit

Dr. James Devine is laSalle's cross'cultural

Brother James Steck. or "Frere Jacques" as his French students know

Mr. John Grace em' bodies the perfect history teacher. He is never satsi' fied with your answers and always wants you to "Go Deeper." Mr. Grace will never be forgotten for his ominous line "Nooo, not good enough. You have to expand and run with it" Mr. Grace keeps his classes moving quick' Iy while each student is getting a broader view of history as never before. Now, if only, He would get a hair cut. The Chairman of the Social Studies Department, Mr. Joseph Colis· tra, is an interesting gen· tleman. When he is not pelting people with dictio' naries, he is praying for patience. With the record of the football team, his patience has paid off

Mr_ Tom Turner is the Stud of the history department, he always dresses in the latest northeast fashions. Mr. Turner is one of the easiest people at LaSalle to talk to and he is always willing to lis' ten. Mr. Gerald Miller. is the eyes and ears of the LaSalle faculty. He knows what you doing and where the parties are before you do! BUI that's O.K., we still love you. Mr. Miller also teaches a Vietnam course and brings some of

his own personal experience into the class which is one of the most interesting classes at LaSalle because we not only learn from a textbook but also from a person who was there.

Mr. Parish. teaches World Cultures, American History and Psycholo' gy. He is a brilliant teach· er with a real flare for get· ting his students involved and interested in class. Mr. Parisi coaches baseball, and his team won the Catholic League Cham' pionship Last year. Con' gratulations. Mr. Marty Jackson, the newest member of the history department is an· other one of the coolest guys at LaSalle. Mr. Jack, son is always one to say. "Hi" and ask you how you're doing. Mr. Jackson is also the basketball coach at LaSalle and he is very successful.

Brother Tim Ahern is a fine new addition to LaSalle's History department. He considers teach' ing history more of a hobby rather than work. He can't understand why his students feel differently, During the spring, Brother Tim is active with the baseball team.

\When students are asked to describe Mr. Mi· chael Ponisciak. the most commonly used word is "amazing", His under' standing and concern for his students, both in the classroom lind out, serves liS the best eXlImple of what LaSalle is all about,

Mr, Joseph Rad' vansky's mathematical abilities are matched only by his enthusiasm for football, This may explain why most of his test ques' tiofls are worth seven points, or why he throws a penalty flag when a play' er. or, student misses a homework. Ms. Marueen Dugan's popularity lit laSalle can be attributed to the bal· ance of her challenging, strict teaching style, and her abundant sense of hu' mar. Dr. James Bradley's days at LaSalle may be numbered. However, most agree that despite his regular flare-ups, Dr. Bradley is just too good to let go. Most of her students agree that Ms. nOlI Shus' lack is a joy to hllve in their class. They especial, Iy appreciate the dumbfounded look she can ere· ale as they rattle off iIlogi· cal proofs and mathematical impossibil' Ities.

•

Mr. John Frizalone's c1l1sses generally have a greater level of class par' ticipation than most. probably because it is al· most impossible to sleep during them. Everything he sllys tends to be remembered, as though permanently impressed on some part of the body, such as the eardrum. It was once rumored that Mr. James Roche was the re'incarnation of Einstein, since their math· ematical abilities are per· fectly matched. The ru' mar was dismissed, how' ever, when it was found that Einstein lacked the personality, wit, can' cerned, and snappy style of dress held by Mr. Roche.

Bro. Thomas Dunn amaZingly has never con· fused the roles he is play' Ing. whether it be a super crime fighter on televi' sian, or a mathematIcal wizard in a suburban hIgh school. But then, what can you expect from a man who never makes mistakes. Whether in the class· room or the bookstore, Bro. Charles Mrozinski has proven to be an asset to the laSalle family.

Mrs. Ponisciak's up' beat and energetic deliv· ery of A.P. and regular Chemistry always keeps her students on their toes. She amazes people with her Knowledge of chemistry and with her ability to talk for forty five minutes straight, stopping of course every now and then for a quick breath. Mr. Russell. AP Phys· ics teacher, can be found in the computer room during his free per· iods stamping out bugs for frustrated program· mers. Miss Lorraine Rimert, the physics and electric· ity teacher, is well known for her patience in the classroom and for her delivery of physics in a way that her stu' dents will never forget.

Mr. Gerald Evans has become known for the showing of his prized, lemming movie to his bi" ology classes. Great movie, right? Mr. Amand's reputa· tion as a "jokester" has helped many freshman through his Health class; we thank Mr. Armand for his contribution and wish him well.

Mrs. Linda Canobbio is well respected and liked by the students in her Anatomy classes. Our thanks to Mrs. Maherfor her leadership and dedication both in the classroom and out. And we are grateful for the contribution of Bob, oh excuse me, Mr. Rinehart to the Science Department.

Well. this is the last year for the Class of 1989 at La Salle College High School, and what a year it was" Along with the dreariness of finishing high school, there were many events which touched our lives. For one thing. the retreat this year really boosted up our spirits and actually showed us how much we have grown. Are we really ready for col" lege? Well at least we have been running around trying to figure out what we want to do with the rest of our lives and where we want to go. As we look back on the past fOUf

â&#x20AC;˘

years at La Salle, it Is quite shocking how much we have grown from the first days when we entered these La Sallian doors. I guess it was the family atmosphere which seemed to pull us through, You clln"t help but admit that we all are like brothers. The ties that bind us to La Salle will remind us through the years that we were and are: famÂˇ ily. Sean O"Oonnellllnd Greg lllhr soak up the sun,

This year at La Salle we were faced with

many changes. We adapted readily to a new dress code, newcolors on the walls and different looking signs. lncomming Freshman

adapted to this new dress code very well. we got a new gym r100r and the old study center

was made into a study center/chapel. The one major aspect of the underclass-

ball team finished with an impressive record with one loss. Our basketball team got out of

the blocks fast with a sophomore at starting quard and finally our soccer team was with its strength from two excellent sophomores. In conclusion as La Salle progresses it gets

better and in I or 2 years we might just add a couple more "Catholic League Champion" players to our collection.

The opening ceremonies to the CIImpus ministry center.

On De<:ember 6, 1988, Archbishop Anthony J. Bevilacqua, the Archbishop of Philadelphia made his first pastoral visit to LaSalle. He led the school community in the Celebration of the Eucharist which offi· cially concluded our 125th Anniversary year. The Archbishop then dedicated the new Campus Ministry Center. a gift to the school from the laSalle Mothers' Club. A highpoint of his visit was his open dis· cussion with some forty students. Arch· bishop Bevilacqua discussed various is' sues of the Church ranging from vocations, world peace. family life and some of the problems facing young people today. Senior Jim VanStone commented. "I thought he was very interesting and showed alot of care for the students. He

conveyed well his Christian life to the stu· dents.'" In his homily at Mass. the Archbishop stressed the need for all of us to overcome our fears by trusting in the Lord. by sharing our faith with one another. He picked up on the theme of the day: "Rejoice and be glad," and recognized that we have alot to rejoice in here at LaSalle. The Archbishop was genuinely impressed with the friendly atmosphere of all at LaSalle and he encour' aged us to keep up the good work. It was a memorable day for the LaSallian family. A day In which we truly proclaimed; "Live Jesus in our hearts, foreverf" The Bishop cheerfully ac' cepts his gift from La Salle.

What you are ~ading Is not only a remembri!lnce of two semesters as laSalle. It is the result of countless hours and immeasurable effort put into the 1989 Blue (, Gold thi!lt made it what it Is. The entire Blue (, Gold staff spent eight months writing. shooting, typing, and i!Ir' ranging the book onto a workable form. However, because of the leadership of the editors, we attained not only a workable form, but an exemplary (there's that word i!Igaln) form.

Editor·in·Chief John Cusimano's energy and motivation can be matched by no one. He turned the most looming problems around and somehow everything came out okay. John's sense of humor frequently kept him from diving off the deep end and into the gutter. Editor Joe Norton's contrubition to the yearbook was felt by every member of the staff, since he seemed to be a part of just about all the yearbook departments. He also made the staff one of the largest in years by promising unsuspecting under' c1assmen a ride home, then "forgetting" them, and stranding them behind plies of work in the yearbook office. Copy Editor Matt KlJminski's job of unscrambling the thoughts and rearranging the words of the staff Wi!lS by no means easy. Even though the responsibility of maintaining the high standards of Blue (, Gold writing was high, rarely did an error slipp his I. Photo Editor Ed Subokow's job is often misunderstood. To supply the visual aids to

•

128

the yearbook was not his primary responsibility. His true assignment was to supply the staff with rei!llly weird pictures of facul· ty and students, to keep the spirits high.

Art Editor OlIn Bavuso set the tone of the yearbook with his very original idei!ls and sketches. Brian 'Ri!lphaef' Devine and Dave 'Goya' Devine were inspired. Typing Editor Pal McGarvey's dedica· tion to correcting and making the Copy leg· ible was essential to the Blue (, Gold. Known for his habit of tricking Layout Staffers into giving him a hand, Pat is a respected, it not infamous, member of the staff. Ed SclJrcelle has proven his" Magic Fin· gers" know no bounds. Not only do they pound the original organ during Masses, but they can also run a calculator. As Business Editor. Ed kept the cash flow in the positive direction.

Layout Editor Lou Mincarelfi's third year experience has largely benefited his huge, but primarily novice staff. Lou's never-end· ing quest lIgainst "trapped white space" is admired by all of his fans. This isn't to say Lou is 2111 work and no play. He knows where to draw the line between getting the job done and really having a good time. moderator; Mr. Nicoletti

The Wisterian, LaSalle's student newspa· per and a time·honored tradition. has under· gone some minor modifications. However, despite these changes, the purpose of the Wisterian still remains the same. That pur· pose is to "inform the LaSalle community of news, activities and controversy." The changes were instituted by Editor·in· Chief Jerry D'Alterio and Editor Frank Am· muturo, along with moderator, Mr. William Geiger, in an attempt to keep the coverage as current as possible and also to increase stu· dent interest in and interaction with the pOI" per. In order to accomplish this, the editorials were made more current and more interest· ing, both on high school and national levels. Also, the "Leiters to the Editor" section was expanded to allow for more student reo sponse. Students were encouraged to reo spond to the editorials or to any other school matters which concerned them. "Wisre· views" was broadened, with the subjects of its reviews ranging from current films to rock concerts to the latest albums. Jn addition, the

•

130

staff of the Wi sterian conducted several polls around the school. Even with all of the excellent ideas and plans for the Wisterian, it could not have been possible without the dependable and dedicated staff. The staff included News Edi· tor Tom Gibbons, Features Editor Fran Mul· vey, Sports Editor Jeff Sink, Copy Editor Tim McMahon, Art Editor Mike Carey, Photo Editor Ed SUbokow, Entertainment Editor Rob Adamski. and Layout Editors Nick Ca' puto and Jason Zoto. Beyond the staff, there were many other reliable writers who are far too numerous to mention here. Once again the staff of the Wisterian had done an excellent job and they will continue to do the same for years to come because they are creating the Wisterian for all of La· Salle.

What is the La Salle Forum? This is a commonly asked question by fellow 1lI Selle students who really do not understand their school's fine forensics program. It is La Salle's speech end debate club, but so much more. Onder the supreme guidance of Br. Charles Mrozinski 2lnd Sr. Robert Wllsblllch. and with the help of Mr. Victor Gavin. the forum competes almost weekly in about 10 different events. Senior Jerry

Fetcher. President. leads the 40 member team with the help of Paul Lalley, Vice-

President, and Doug Staudmeister, Secretary. Many think the forensics learn is all speech and debate. However, the range of events runs from Cross·Examlnatlon to Stu' dent Congress. Other events include Ora-

malic Interpretation, Extemporaneous Speaking, and Original Oratory. A bIg plus for the Forum is the excur' sions taken, traveling as far as Denver, Atlanta, Boston, and New York. The team also travels in the areas of Scranton and Balti· more, as well as others. The tournaments are held almost weekly, both locally and nationally. But, It is the people who make the Forum what it is. Almost all the members, though their views mllY not always coincide, get along lind grow together. There really is a "family" atmosphere within the LA SAlle forum, another plus for an already "A+" organization.

This was one of the most exciting seasons that LaSalle has had in a long time. Within the first week of school LaSalle's theatre had its auditions for the fall production of one day in the Life of Ivan Deni· sovich. Under the direction of Colleen Dur· ken Lapowsky, this play was meant to be a workshop for the actors, the stage crew and production staff as it showed the stu· dents many of the different facets of the theatre. Actors Drew McAuliffe, Philip Keidel, Derek Zardus and James McNamee bene· fitted from this workshop. By portraying a characher they developed a greater under· standing of what a concentration camp is and the rules that the prisoners had to live by in a more detailed way. The stage was a Russian prison camp bunk room. The bunk beds were scattered in the room. Mrs. Lapowsky wanted a sim· pie stage so that people could feel the full

effect of the actors. This show was shown on the last weekend of October and the play drew a good sized crowd. With the ending of this show, the production managers. Christopher Farrell, John Cochrane and Michael Pocreca were hard at work preparing for the spring musical. The mystery of Edwin Drood. a novel begun by Charles Dickens, was completed by composer Rupert Holmes as a solve it yourself mystery. Auditions for the show were in December. Over sev· enty people tried out but there was only room enough for a cast of thirty. Francis Prisco, Philip Keidel, Derek Zardus, Robin Campbell and Jill Diuzio walked away from the auditions with the leads of the show. Beginning in January, the stage man· ager Eric Chesna and the stage crew be· gan extensive work building the set for the extravagant March musical.

proved itself a force in the LaSallilln Community. Through students' exam· pies and public announcements, the members of S.A.D.D. have relayed theif message that drinking and driving don't mix. President Tim McMahon. VicePresident Doug Cooper and Treasurer Greg Ryan have helped 10 convey

S.A.D.D.'s ideas and increase the school's awareness of this Important ethical issue. The trio hopes to continue

in this pursuit through publicity at school functions and S.A.D.D. aware' ness weeks held before ChristmllS and in the springtime. The members of S.A.D.D. don't condone

drinking. They understand that their peers have made their first mistake by taking a drink. S,A.D.D. members try to prevent their fellow students from making a second mistake and getting behind the wheel of a car. With such enthuslas· tic membership, the officers are certain that their goals for this year will be suc' cessfuland that these goals will carryon to the many years ahead for the organi· zation.

The NlItionlll Honor Society is a group of motivated and tlliented students, who indio vidually involve themselves in all areas of the LaSalle community. Members are in' volved in sports and clubs within the school as well as in the community, In addition to their extra·curricular involvement, members have excelled in their llclldemic endeavors. Applications to the NHS are taken from ju' niors and seniors in the fall of each year. A 3.5 grade point average and involvement in several activities are the basic requirements for members. Students in the NHS are required to exhibit the qualities of character, scholarship, leadership and service. The fac· ulty reviews the applications and selects new members, who are Inducted into the society at a formal Induction ceremony in January.

The Mother's Club. moderlll~ by Brother fred Stelmach. F.S.C.. is an integral part of the community at laSalle. The forty-two women, along with other volunteers. who comprise the &ard of the Mothers' Club readily and unselfishly sacrifice their valu-

able time and energy in order to benefit the entire LaSaliian community. At each of the monthly meelings. these devoted and hard-working ladies begin to

organize the upcoming events, in addition to placing the finishing touches on their current projects. These events range from the vlIriou$ s0cial affairs to the large and complex fund, raisers. Some of these include the Fresh· man Mothers' Tea Party, the Fashion

Show, the Poinsettia Sale, the Christmas PlItty, and the Community Dinner. Perhaps the most celebrated event is the annual "LaSale" Auction, organized in conjunction with the Fathers' Club, which always proves to be a great success. The Mothers' Club donates all of the prof' its to the school. In honor of laSalle's l25th Anniversary, they helped to fund the con· struction of the new Campus Ministry Cen· ter and Chapel. On December 6. 1966, this new Center was blessed by the Archbishop of Philadelphia, Anthony Bevilacqua. The dedication and willing service of the women in the Mothers' Club is truly an indication to us all about the true spirit of la· Salle.

Senior Retreat was a welcome opportunity to reJ1eve the tensions he fllces and re-evalu· ate his decisions with a more focused mind. On the overnight trip to Malvern the retreat focused on reflection on the past to help us better understand the present. It included prayer, discussion. journal writing, medita-

Through one'On'One dialogue, discus· sion, reflection, prayer, scripture, group sharing journlll writing, presentations, and liturgy, students reflected upon their lives - past, and present, and future, and their relationship with themselves, others, and God.

Coming off of a dismal 3·7 M!ason, the little explorers astonished the Catholic Lea· fue Northern Division this past season. Before the season had even started, local pa' pers were giving the team little chance to succeed in the traditionally tough league. In mid·August the team set out for Camp Canadensis to prove the critics wrong. Playing ex· ceptionZilly well in their two preseason contests, they were well prepared to face North Catholic, their first league 0PPo' nent Although Coach Colistre could not be at the game due to an iII~5S, the team pulled off a con· vincing 21·0 shut out. Proving that the Hrst game was no fluke, the Explorers went on to crush Upper Dublin, Arch· bishop Wood and Bishop Kenrick by a score of 76·17. In the following two games quarterback, Jack Stanczak ted LaSalle to exciting come-from'behind, last minute victories against Father Judge and Cardinal Dougherty.

The Explorers then defeated cross' town rival and defending Catholic League Champion, Bishop McDevitt. laSalle fin· ished a perfect 9-0 regular season by sound' Iy defeating Bishop Egan by the score of 15{) behind an impenetratable defense led by seniors Marc Borrelll, Brian Vesey, Dave Kratz and Ed Weber. Bouncing back from a disappointing play' off loss to Bishop Egan, the team displayed pride and determination by defeating St. Joes Prep In a classing Thanksgiving Day matchup. After a spectacular 101 season, Arst Team All· Catholic honors were awarded to Marc Borrelli, Brian Vesey and Jack I Stanczak, who was also named the League's most valuable player. Second Team honors went to offensive lineman Joe McDonald. Matt Rossllnese and Ryan Marsh. Honorable Mention AlI·Catholics were Carl Mattia, Ed Weber. Dave Kraz, Dave Bimto and Martin Feeny. This year's team has reinstated the winning tradition of laSalle football and the team is confident that their hard work will not be forgotten. The seniors of this years team wish all the future teams the best of luck in carrying on this newly established winning tradition.

laSalle's soccer team, coached for the second year by Mr. Bob Peffle, began the season with a good idea of the difficulties in competing in the Northern Division of the Catholic League. Howev, er, strong defensive play and depth in the midfield positions kept the Explorers' competitive against even nationally ranked opponents. This year's team did not have a consistent scoring threat and the Explorers' inability to put the ball in the net cost the team games in which they dominated play. The team's lack of offensive power enabled its opponents 10 put more pres' sure on LaSalle's goal' tender and the rest of the defense. Games decided by one goal are, in most cases, the toughest to lose; LaSalle hl!ld more than its share of those games this year. The team finished with a 4,8,4 league record and a 7·9·4 record overall. This year. the soccer team showed good work habits and strong determinlltion to be successful. Hopefully, next year, LaSalle's climb in the ranks of the Catholic League will be continued. The J.Y. and Freshman

The Varsity·Eight finished off the season on a good note by winning gold medals in their last two reces. The novices also showed some hope by winning their race in the Head of the Connecticut.

Joseph's Prep. This year, a new work ethic has become evident, a desire to win that has moti' vated the members of the team to push themselves harder than they ever had beÂˇ fore. From the beginning of indoor workouts In early December, varsity coach Mr. Robert Reinhardt and lightweight and midweight coach, Mr. Anthony Stephanski, have put the experienced oarsman through a strenu' ous training program that combined

weightlifting and running. After reviewing the team's performance in ergometer and other strength testing, the coaches began working to put together the combinations of rowers that would make La Salle's boats move the fastest.

It is a good thing that I was able to come up with this page in order to tell you all how impossible it Is to create and produce a yearbook. Alot of times the staff is often put aside and it is just the editors which receive the credit. Even though this option does in fact sound appealing. I have to personally thank the little people who actually sat down and put the editors ideas on paper. I would also like to thank the faculty e1nd modereltors who took all our bull whenever we "misplaced" a picture. All I really have to say, though, is that it was a real experience doing all of this. I tried to change the book around to give it more style and I hope you all liked at least some of the changes. It seemed that there were alot of changes this year though. Oh yea. thanks Mr. Nicoletti for all of your time. It was sometimes hard to put two and two together. The biggest thanks though goes to my girlfriend Melissa. She went through alot for me and was always a good friend to turn to. If that sounds too mushy whenever YOU become editor路in路chief you can say whatever you want. I'm outla here!! John C. Cusimano editor-in-chief
