Freshmen Mike Bavuso and Tom Butcher discover the completely different experience of a Physical Science lab. Minutes later, Room 306 was ablaze. When you are as tired as Mark O'Neill, you can't always wait for a comfortable bed to nap in. Plans for a bedroom in the proposed new wing may solve this problem.

What's the difference? First, we've struck you with this new glossy white cover. (Don't let it get dirty!) Second, we've added more color. Third . . . well, read the book and find out! During the last year, the school assumed a different atmosphere, an atmosphere of change, which we believe we have captured in the book. Moreover, we sense an acceptance of the changes, and a widespread belief that these changes will dramatically improve the school. Most obviously, new appointments and shifting responsibilities mandated changing the locations of the College Placement Center, the Attendance Office, and the Principal's Office. Mr. Cimini's staff - remodeled not only these offices, but the Main Office as well. We could see straight into the blue-hued main office through the new glass walls and contemporary two-way doors. We smelled the new rugs and fresh paint in the Attendance Office and Col, lege Placement Center. We couldn't avoid noticing the . . . unusual . . . painting on the walls through out the school. The renovations of the Dining Hall ade it more like "Bistro de La Salle" and not just -. r. .. ori. rdinary, uh, cafeteria.

The changes extended beyond the physical refurbishings of the .school. Such alterations were mirrored in the organizational restructuring instituted in the administration and the faculty. Brother Robert Shea became the first president of the school; Mr. Diehl became the first lay principal in La Salle's history; Brother James Rieck assumed the role of Director of Admissions; Brother James Dries replaced him as academic assistant principal; and Dr. James Devine accepted the position of vice-president. In addition, seven new faces appeared among the faculty at the beginning of the year. The outstanding performances of our athletic teams also infused the school with a new vibrancy and a more fervent support of all school functions. The total population of the school increased, reaching nearly one thousand students, and leading to some larger classes and more crowded hallways. How many times did you hurdle freshmen, elbow past sophomores, slide by juniors, and respectfully fall behind seniors on your way to a third floor class after lunch - only to barely miss the bell and be sent for a late slip? Having re-evolved in 1989-90 from the blend of the clifferent atmosphere, the different physical appearance, and the different personnel, La Salle College High School vividly took on the look of SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

If I had a child who wanted to be a teacher, I would bid him Godspeed as if he were going to a war. For indeed, the war against prejudice, greed, and ignorance is eternal, and those who dedicate themselves to it give their lives no less because they may live to see some fraction of the battle won. - James Hilton

ADMINISTRATION

Brother Robert Shea. Brother Robert came to La Salle first in 1975, during which time he acted as Vice-Principal and could be seen playing mandolin and sporting a cool black mustache. He left school in the same year. He was absolved of sin in 1986, and soon returned to us, minus the mandolin and mustache. Now President, Brother Robert loves to try new ideas. As a teacher in Prayer, or as a designer of the vivid colors in the hall or the new expansion plans, Brother Robert Shea strives for excellence.

Brother Robert Shea: President; Prayer.

Mr. David Diehl Mr. Diehl's Economics class gives him a chance to get away from his job of Principal for a few hours a day. His desire to teach the class in a pair of Levis, tennis shoes, and a Guns 'n Roses t-shirt is very evident, but he continues to wear his suits. During the class, Mr. Diehl uses his sense of humor, his patience, an overworked overhead projector, and 30 different colored pieces of chalk to make the course as interesting as it can be.

Mr. David Diehl: Principal; Economics I.

In his new position as Assistant >rincipal, Brother James must keep a vatchful eye on both student and acalaemic affairs, so he is much too busy o have the frivolous fun of youth. James Devine Since his new appointment to the >Ostof Vice-President of La Salle, Dr. )evine's duties have greatly increased. \part from his Cross-Cultural Commu1ications class, which features trips to he Italian Market and Jakarta, Dr. De1ine plays a large role in public relaions, fundraising, and development. ~nd he even lets Brother Robert bor路ow his car.

Mr. Lawrence Mangan: Comptroller.

Brother James Reick: Director of Admissions.

Now if only someone could figure out how to pronounce his title (is the "p" silent?). 3rother James Reick His recent change in duties from As;istant Principal to Director of Admis;ions means that Brother James Reick noves from looking at complaining freshmen's rosters and grades to looking at anxious eighth graders' rosters and grades. He gets a chance to relax by attending Mothers' Club meetings and playing racquetball - but beware! In his hands, a racquet is a deadly weapon.

Board of Trustees Although its existence is not often recognized by the student body, the most important organization of La Salle is the Board of Trustees. As the ultimate authority of La Salle, the Board, led by Chairman of the Board Brother Colman Coogan, F.S.C., and Brother Robert Shea, F.S.C., who serves as president, makes the decisions regarding all of La Salle's important educationa, financial, and developmental strategies. These decisions are made at the bi-monthly meetings for the administration to carry out. The Board has 15 members who are unpaid and chosen for expertise in financial, educational, and legal affairs. The Board is supported by three exofficio "service members, including Mr. David Diehl, Brother James Dries, F.S.C., and Mr. Lawrence Mangan,

and advisory members," who are chosen for their skills in a particular area. Neither advisory nor service members vote. The Board is organized into five committees: the Executive committee, which is only convened when the entire Board cannot meet; the Finance committee; the Development committee, which arranges investment portfolios and gifts; the Long-Range Planning Committee; and the Nominating committee, which names new members. The volunteer service given by the Board of Trustees allows La Salle to act as an independent school. The amount of professional experience present on the Board allows it to make informed decisions on the paths La Salle walks in the present and will take in the future.

GUIDANCE It is the role of the six guidance counselors to help us to straighten up our miserable little lives. For Brother Tom Chadwick, that means getting freshmen out from under the chairs and getting them to think about finding a life. For Dr. Daly, guidance is getting sophomores to stop thinking about their lives and start thinking about studies. Those who refuse her give up a portion of their lives to be tutored by Mrs. Baer. In Junior year, Mr. Devine starts students on the long and winding road towards college life. And in senior year, the job splits: Mr. Dolan has students examine their lives, while Brother David Rogers has colleges examine their lives. What would our lives be without them?

Brother David Rogers: College Placement Director; English 2.

Mrs. Marie Baer: Guidance and Counseling Services/Intermediate Unit.

Mr. Michael Dolan: Senior Guidance.

Mrs. Marie Baer Mrs. Marie Baer takes struggling biology students each year and attempts to transform them into budding young doctors. Also, she tutors promising sophomores in "Camp Baer," a weekly summer program designed to increase their standardized test scores. In both of these endeavors, she has been uncommonly successful. Brother Thomas Chadwick Ah, poor soul! Not only does Brother Tom have to teach freshmen, he also has to guide them. And he actually seems to like it! He succeeds in this difficult job partly because he can calm and reassure the excitable freshmen with his soothing voice. Dr. Doris Daly Confronting one of the most dreaded afflictions of youth each day, Mrs. Daly counsels students suffering from sophomoritis. She attempts to encourage the "wise" while suppressing the "fool."

Mr. Patrick Devine: Junior Guidance; Marriage.

Dr. Doris Daly: Sophomore Guidance.

Mr. Patrick Devine "You mean he's a teacher?" is the question asked most often about Mr. Patrick Devine. But, yes, when not coaching Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track, and leading naive ju-

niors astray, Mr. Devine is sometimes reported to be seen enthusiastically teaching Christian Marriage to seniors. Mr. Michael Dolan Although his title is "Senior Guidance Counselor," Mr. Michael Dolan makes himself available to just talk. He reinforces this openness by leaving the door to his office open all day. He is the ''Man-With-A-Million-Readings,'' expounding the American Indian Philosophy or the pleasures of music, among other things. His classload is weightless, so that he may concentrate on his efforts to control those wild seniors; with one inspirational quote, he quiets the hordes. Brother David Rogers Around December each year, Brother David Rogers is besieged by hundreds of anxious seniors trying to get into college. We hear him admonish us to "get the applications in before Christmas," and so we begin to work on them about December 18th. At this time, he becomes one of the most important people in the school. He works to save seniors from procrastination and from the bottomless pit of college choices.

Mr. Dennis Blah Formerly a lawyer on "Divorce Court," Mr. Bloh quit because he always got stuck defending the adulterous husband or the gold-digging wife. The next best profession, of course, was teaching at La Salle. When not learning his students in English real good, Mr. Bloh finds time to moderate the wrestling team. He says he likes the wrestlers in general, but they still aren't as tenacious as a husband fighting to keep his ex-wife's hands off his Mercedes. Mr. Clare Brown Because of her understanding nature, Mrs. Brown softens well the devastation Freshmen feel when they have to face a solemn truth: Shane dies! Mrs. Brown also broadens the sensitivities of juniors in providing a balanced focus on the fictional men and women who inhabit the pages of the American Literature offerings. Mr. Bernard McCabe Seven questions Mr. McCabe will not answer: 1. Hey, Mr. McCabe, is that a new tie you're wearing? 2. Is it true your brother's smarter than you? 3. Are those sneakers? 4. What are you doing for Christmas this year? 5. Is it true that your parents liked Ed

Mr. Dennis Bloh: English 1, 3

Mr. Edward Molush Despite failing his tryout for the Senior Baseball League, Mr. Molush continues to cling to the illusion that he is a major-league pitcher. After all, he claims, he is better than most of the Phillies' pitchers. However, he also diversifies his time teaching literature and writing, co-moderating this book, coaching Haverford College's baseball team, raising a two-year old son, and averting World War III. Mr. Michael O'Toole What happens when lounge singing goes completely out of style? "Why, you teach English," states Mr. O'Toole, explaining his career move. "I still get to wear my old outfits. They fit in with the English teacher look. Of course, I had to grow a beard because that other guy said I'd look funny without one." He teaches us, via literature, writing, art, and music, who we've been and who we are.

Dr. Joseph D'Angelo First of all, let's get one thing perfectly clear: Dr. D' Angelo does not give free medical advice. Nontheless, when he does his Foghorn Leghorn imitation, he is often greeted with the question of "What's up, Doc?" He first came to La Salle in 1986, and in two years succeeded in staging a coup for the Chair of the English Department. Dr. D' Angelo's doctorate is in Baseball Literature, and he almost always predicts the pennant races correctly - what he does to achieve this rate of success is not known, but strange blue lights have been seen coming from the Physics room after school.

Mr. Gabriel Blanco Mr..Blanco is truly a "completely different" teacher here at La Salle. Besides the regular Spanish curriculum, he teaches his students "self-hypnosis". This skill includes reading minds (which could come in handy during tests) and "out of body experiences" (which could really come in handy during tests). But watch yourself! Mr. Blanco knows what you're thinking! He received his B.A. from La Salle University, where he also teaches, and his M.A. from Temple. Along with his teaching, "Senor" keeps himself busy with his hypnotic therapy, moderating the Student Council, organizing t.he Spanish trip, and helping to raise his family. Mr. Blanco stands out as one of La Salle's "mejores" teachers in taking the time to talk over students' problems when he. asks us, one-on-one, "iCual es tu problema?"

Mr. Joseph Radvansky: Algebra 1, 2X, Math Analysis 1, 2; Geometry/Trig.

Ms. Maureen Dugan Unlocking the mysteries (and there are many) of algebra to unsuspecting freshmen, Ms. Dugan shows how 2 3x+6y=4, 7x+2y+6=9z -2.6, and 2+2=5. And in her sophomore classes, her infamous "college tests," gets everyone ready to fill in those annoying ovals (see the PSA T article). Brother Thomas Dunn After his series was cancelled by the network, the "Equalizer" can now devote all his time to teaching. Whether teaching Algebra or Geometry, the world's biggest leprechaun continues his streak of 37 years without a mistake. And despite a few of his minor oversights, the record remains unbroken.

Ms. Tina Shustack: Algebra 2, Computer Literacy, Pro路 gramming 1, Geometry/Trigonometry.

Mr. John Frizalone The first day of math class, we were all intimidated by the hulking mass of Mr. John Frizalone. He made sure that we knew to "GROUP X'S WITH DX'S AND Y'S WITH DY'S!!!" Mr. Friz takes great pride in developing his "mathematical studs," and second only to them are his athletes on the practice field. He creates perfect balance of mind and body. Brother Charles Mrozinski "What a teacher! He really knows how to explain algebra, especially by using transparencies. Did you see his last one of the year? It was pathetic. He may be a great math teacher ... but he needs lessons in art." Mr. Michael Ponisciak One of the few people who can both spell and pronounce his name correctly, Mr. Michael Ponisciak teaches his math and analysis courses flawlessly.

Students are often surprised when they realize he, like Brother Tom, has never made a mistake. When not teaching math, Mr. Ponisciak finds time to chance a once-a-week trip into Roxborough as co-moderator of the C.S.C. Mr. Joseph Radvansky We sit in disbelief of "Mr. Rad." We've obviously produced outstanding results because he's used the work "Right" at least 97 times in the last 20 minutes. But our favorite mathematician continues to reach bounds that are, to him, "No Big Deal." His students, though at times completely baffled, are always kept awake by his endless supply of energy. "Agreed?!?"

Ms. Tina Shustack Since coming to La Salle two years ago, Ms. Shustack has her hands full teaching computer programming and geometry. Even with the computer plotting against her in computer literacy by tampering with a freshman's (amazing how it singles them out) work, she maintains a smile - usually. Although she will not admit it publicly, Ms. Shustack has been known to break into the computer files of various newspapers and scramble George Bush's quotes into gibberish. Mrs. Mary Jo Smith

Proving both Thomas Wolfe and The Moody Blues wrong, Mrs. Mary Jo Smith comes home again to La Salle. Having left school six years ago to raise her first child, she now returns to balance math, the Forum, and caring for two children - all tasks she performs most competently. She does, however, sometimes get confused - as the bright style of her homeroom reveals.

/'.;':::,'{,',/!

~ff#l'i11#!i6'~f"i?i/fitffl#Y,eA{~ti;:i~;J&tt !Ji~' .\j Brother Kenneth Cook Brother Kenneth Cook's religion class is not the average religion class. His stories and discussions are extremely humorous yet true, and they relate to the lesson at the same time. Not to say that he is an easy teacher. He always says, "I don't give you the grade. I just put it down." This philosophy makes him a demanding yet respected teacher to his freshman and sophomore classes.

Mr. Francis Johnson Mr. Johnson was recently recruited by La Salle to teach a mixed bag of Religion and English. Prepared for his task with a little-known triple degree, Mr. Johnson is faring quite well so far. We welcome him to the faculty. Now, if

he could only master Wisterian layouts.

Mrs. Muriel Mehr A veteran member of La Salle's faculty, Mrs. Mehr has been teaching Death and Dying and other religion courses here for quite some time. She is also responsible for mass deforestation by her insatiable demand for posterboard. Mr. Geoffrey Nicoletti Every time I enter his religion class, I am guaranteed one of his stories. Pity, the ends are never as funny as the beginnings. He is the ideal religious teacher - he really tests our faith. I just wish he would stop doing the "Dance of Death" on his desk.

Mr. Francis Johnson: Religion I, Peace, English 2


Mr. Alfred Punte/ Mr. Alfred "Big Al" Puntel is well known for his ties, which are the envy of the rest of the faculty. While he has been heard to say "Yes, Yes? No, No?," he is unerring in his facts as he bestows morality upon pagan juniors and gives seniors a better understanding of Jesus than previously thought possible. While he has addressed them several times upon the importance of proper reflective gear, he claims he has no plans to take over the Bike Club. When not busy teaching, he can be found patrolling the cafeteria, placating sophomores with a quick "Hey, take it. easy," or disputing with Paul Bonfanti about exactly who runs the C.S.C.

Mrs. Linda Canobbio You can tell Mrs. Linda Cannobio gets a kick out of showing movies taken by cameras in places some of her male students never thought possible. You can see the smirk come across her face as she tells them just how the cameras got there. After that, she must teach biology class to an apprehensive bunch of students.

Teaching Chemistry with such proficiency and speed, Mrs. Ponisciak sometimes forces students to abandon traditional note-taking and turn on tape recorders to get all the information she packs into her classes. Her lively classes sometimes features such games as "Find the 'A'." Now, if she could only remember the school is shaped like an "H".

Mr. Gerald Evans There's only one day in each marking period that "Opie" is called by his real name, Mr. Evans. That is the day before marks close, when a number of students will ever so politely try to talk their way from a "D" to a "C". As for the rest of the time, "Hey, Opie!" suffices. He generally takes it with a smile, for he who laughs last ...

Mr. Robert Reinhardt A graduate of La Salle in 1983, Mr. Robert Reinhardt is in his second year of teaching at La Salle. Mr. Reinhardt has the unenviable task of teaching freshman Physical Science. Not only does he have to put up with broken 路 beakers, Mr. Reinhardt also has to avoid the urge to light up during class. He is one of La Salle crew's varsity coaches and all of the members of the crew appreciate his gentleness and warm heart, especially after those agonizing practices. When Mr. Reinhardt isn't at La Salle or the boathouse he can probably be found in his Corvette, in his Mustang, or in the crew bus.

Mr. Terry Gillespie Mr. Gillespie, a graduate of La Salle High, is now learning firsthand what it was like to teach him. We hear his tests are now, of course, as difficult as the ones he used to complain about. Undergoing the vicious faculty initiation of teaching freshmen and sophomores, Mr. Gillespie is also the new assistant coach of the basketball team. Brother Valery Nguyen Van An Here's something completely different: the life of Brother Valery. Like many others, he became a Brother early in life; unlike others, he did so in Vietnam. He taught in Vietnam for seven years, until, in 1978, he was arrested and held in a communist prison camp for three years. After his release, he eventually journeyed to Paris, and to La Salle University. He now assists computer science classes while bringing diversity to the faculty.

he can be found enlightening young minds in Physics class where he becomes "Mr. Wizard." For all his students know that when he prepares some equipment (that took him the entire class to find), it could be cause to run and hide. Despite this, and an occasional class spent in clueless daze, he remains a valued teacher.

Ms. Lorraine Rimert Ms. Lorraine Rimert begins each year stating, "Physics is Fun," and she spends the rest of the year trying to prove it to rabid Physics students. When not teaching, she can usually be seen playing A-V cart tag with Mr. Miller and catching rides on the elevator. Rumors have also been circulated concerning the existence of the secret video files in the A.V. room. Does her teaching of Electronics allow students to employ their own surveillance techniques???

When she is not trying to enlist students to attend her alma mater, Chestnut Hill College, she is teaching Chemistry. She also moderates the La Sallian Associates, who now know more about valence elections than they thought possible.

Bro. Timothy Ahern Brother Tim Ahern is the man people know from down the shore (in Ocean City) who wears the noseguard and the Notre Dame baseball cap. Or maybe you know Brother Tim because of his involvement with intramurals. Brother Tim teaches history to many sophomore classes. Those who have had him probably know about his "Pearl Harbor Tests." Brother Tim is probably the coolest brother at La Salle, But he likes things to get done, and done right. Brother Tim loves Notre Dame and his Irish culture. He's an Irish man, he is! Mr. John Grace "Talk to me, man." La Salle's last holdout of the sixties says as he brushes his hair back. Amid the mustache and hair jokes, Mr. John Grace teaches his students the theories and the motives behind the dates and facts. He makes his class think about history, instead of simply memorizing facts and figures. If he would only get a real haircut ... Mr. Martin Jackson Mr. Jackson's inspiration comes from his desire to teach about life, as well as history - and from two cups of coffee per class. Mr. Jackson is often compared to great people such as Henry Kissinger, as they both share the same negotiating abilities, and George Jetson, as they share the same good looks and witty sense of humor. But Mr. Jackson's teaching ability doesn't stop

outside the classroom. His 'enthusiasm' on the basketball court inspires players and fans. Mr. Gerald Miller Now that Mr. Miller has received his official A-V cart license, he can be seen tooling around school with it mumbling to himself, "Rimert thinks she's soooo hot ... Where is she now?" Publicly clinging to the claim that he needs it for educational purposes, other faculty members say he just couldn't take Mrs. Rimert' s teasing.

Mr. Joseph Parisi "What exactly is he now?" students ask of Mr. Parisi. This year, only a chosen few are taught by him. The rest of the time, he can be seen in the attendance office. When asked about his new job, he simply said, "I want to be the NEW Diehl." Mr. Thomas Turner Mr. Tom Turner, the "cool cat" of the social studies department, takes his history classes deep into the studies of world history. While he bids us trudge back across continents and into numerous and tumultuous eras of civilization, his subtle humor entertains and his latest fashions mesmerize. Just recently, he was asked by GQ magazine to do some modeling, but Mr. Turner declined the offer, saying he enjoys teaching at La Salle.

Mr. Joseph Colistra Mr. Joseph Colistra is one teacher who brings something completely different into the classroom. Whether it is through "high-heeled sneakers", "furlined supporters", or dual due-dates (It's due t'day, but I'll take it t'marra. "), Mr. Colistra adds difference to the studies of history and economics. As you would expect from a graduate of La Salle High (class of 1964 - so now you know how old he is) and Villanova, he really knows his stuff - from Hitler to homogeneous oligopoly. In addition to teaching, Mr. Colistra serves as the chairman of the Social Studies - a fact which may explain the eccentric natures of many of the social studies teachers. As if these duties weren't enough, he is also the coach of La Salle's varsity football team, a job he performs a little differently as well. He intersperses play calls with references to the male anatomy to drive the team to victory. That is just Mr. Colistra's way: he will do anything to help his students or team succeed, even if that means doing things with a little twist.

Mr. Tore Hanssen came to La Salle to teach gym after Brother Hillary complained about not having anyone to shoot foul shots with. Anyone can spot him easily, as he is the only person in the building wearing shorts. It's only his first year here and he wasn't quite caught on to the dress code. (We're jealous: high-tops and no tie!) Nevertheless, we welcome him to the Faculty. Now, if only he'd stop making gym class like ... gym class. Brother Hillary McGovern

"This here gym ain't big enough for the two of us, Punk," he said, as a new face appeared in gym shorts sporting a

whistle tucked into his shirt pocket. "Your time's up brother. Ne• blood's taking over this gym class," th newcomer said in a confident voic, Perhaps too confident ... "How about pool? Why donch teach pool instead? You won't get n trouble there." "Don't want to. Pool's too cold," tr new face said with a glint in his eye And so the young gun tried to sta~ his claim.

Mr. Joseph Ciccimaro Mr. C. is the ultimate "jazz guy. Whether he is kindly asking "What #%&*@ number are you playing?" or exclaiming "Aaaarghhh!" he strives to make sure that the band remains La Salle's most loyal organization, by playing at football games, school functions, and concerts. Brother Joseph Myers Sitting in the back of the mechanical drawing room, I've gotten to know my savior, Brother Joe, very well. After being rescued from an abandoned car

the Northeast and painted yellow, I've had a great time in his classes. "Well . .. " I know that "this is La Salle" and I've offered my prayers for the sick and the elderly [Mary Boyle]. I have become a classical rock music aficionado from listening to the radio while the students draw their their T-squares for the Hercules Motor Co. I can hear Brother Joe say to his students, "Well ... Gentlemen ... You know who you are, where you are, and what you have to do, Gentlemen." "Stay steady," Brother.

Mrs. Diane McGovern "Well, that looks nice, but ...

Mrs. McGovern tackles all of the art classes with a creative flair, and also handles Mechanical Drawing, Art History and the occasional European History class. With a bright outlook in her mind and a bright scarf worn across her shoulder (Don't you ever get paint on them?), she reminds us not to carve on the desks (or each other) with the styluses, to make sure we clean up when it's time, and, above all, to BRING IN YOUR INTERESTING OBJECT!

so much road;

O LITTLE TIM "O my God, I'm not going to make it in time," I kept thinking over and over. It was five minutes to midnight and I was twenty miles from home. Does this sound familiar to you? If it does, you aren't alone. All high school students have to deal with a parent-inflicted restriction that hangs over teens' heads like ten-ton weights: CURFEW!! Chances are you have had at least one experience where you lost track of the time: you were at "the party of the year"; you got caught up in all that excitement at one of those swell school mixers (maybe not); your girlfriend's parents were away for the weekend and you had to keep her company; or you just wandered too far from home looking for something to do. You had to resort to bending the speed limit a little, running that "yellow" light; and blowing by one of those annoying stop signs. You arrive,at your house a half hour late and you

figure "This is it! I'm grounded for sure." You ha, only one chance. "Maybe they're asleep." You snec in quietly through the back door and cautiously slip u the stairs to your room when suddenly, a voice fro: the darkened living room says, "Where the hell we1 you!!!" Uh-oh! They caught you. You have to think fast, "I know," you say to you self, "I'll just come up with a really good excuse." Yc tell them the first thing that comes to mind: "I w, waiting at a red light and it must have been brok, because it didn't change for at least an hour. I didr want to just go through it because you always said obey the traffic laws." You notice that they dor appear to believe you so you come up with anoth excuse, and then another: ranging from bad acciden to the ever reliable "I had a flat tire." Your parents t, you that they understand perfectly, and then grow you for two weeks. Does this sound familiar?

"I don't know why we have to 1ave a curfew on the weekends when we are always ,reaking it anyways," replied one student. "You can't lo anything on the weekends if you have to work late ike I do." One student, lacking eloquence, simply ,tated, "It stinks!" If you ask any student, he can give you at least one 'horror story" of his bad experiences with being late. 'I was speeding to get home in time and got pulled lver by the cops. They have me a ticket for $74 and a warning for being out past midnight. They caused me o get home even later. When I got home my parents 1rounded me and took away the car for a month: two weeks for being late and two for speeding." So the ;tories go. Apparently, until the Supreme Court rules "the :urfew" unconstitutional, or until our parents rememler that they were once teens too, we can resort to mly one sensible solution: plan to be home 11:00 P.M ... Naaaaahhh!!

Worse than the nuclear clock, this clock counts the second to the ultimate oblivion: GROUNDING!

As the school year rolls along, mem路 bers of the junior class enter into another dimension. The radio blares a fa. vorite tune, maybe Springsteen's "Born to Run." They become captivated by the driving experience. At the sign post up ahead they see the onramp to the 309 Speedway. Their foot becomes heavier, and recall of traffic laws become hazier. They are ensnared in the Car Zone. Juniors develop driver's syndrome - their quest to obtain a driver's Ji. cense. A license is their ticket - oops, can't mention tickets - passport to

independence, which they have sought for the past sixteen years. Gone are Big Wheels, training wheels, dirt bikes, 12speeds, and skateboards. Juniors become renewed with enthusiasm as they try to impress their friends with their Mean Wheels. After receiving their licenses, the cars which they are seen driving are most important. The cars they drive can make them more appealing to girls. Indeed, a BMW is more appealing than a rusted out Mercury Monarch. But on the other hand, most juniors are satisfied with any type of car - even a

Pinto - rather than no car at all. When a junior receives his driver'i license he breaks away from his depen dence on others for transportation. Hi ends his reliance on his parents, neigh bors, siblings, Uncle George who work: near school, or SEPT A. When in con trol of a car, a junior feels he is more ii control of his life. He can go to mixers parties, basketball games, on dates fas ter and more easily then when he coul< not drive himself. A driver's licens, symbolizes a junior's entrance int, adulthood.

The Juniors take it to qualify for National Merit Scholarship, or to simply give colleges a good first impression. They knew this test would preview what they would see on the Scholastic Aptitude Tests (SATs}. I came prepared with my No. 2 pencils and the hope that I would do well.

Had to be done, although I had shocked - but had not amused - the proctor. With that my class dove into the English section of the test. I became frustrated during the antonym section when I didn't know some of the words (like "antonym"!), but I tried to forget about it and move on. The other parts were sentence completion ("! think; therefore I _"), analogy (as in, metaphor: ballpeen hammer: Electromagnet: sneaker}, and reading comprehension. The reading was time consuming, and I rushed to finish. Many of my classmates were not as lucky as I and didn't answer all of the questions. For National Merit the English score is

A short break between the two sections allowed my class to relax and reflect on the English section. My teacher said to forget about all the tension, and she made sure I didn't scream out again. The Math section was not that tough, but many people again didn't finish. The questions became increasingly difficult as the test moved on, but I think I did well. My major fear was committing stupid mistakes on the easy questions, but worse, fillingin the wrong ovals for 17 answers in a

row! Finally it ended, and everyone felt ... exasperat路 ed. I looked forward to seeing my results and to start receiving letters from colleges after the test. High scorers and Merit Semi-Finalists will be honored at next year's Honor Convocation. Directly after the test, everyone left to enjoy a half-day of school, except me.

SHUFFLE The end of the second period nears. You plan your strategy for the next three minutes. "Take middle stairs," you tell yourself. "Go to locker room. Dump books. Grab religion and history books. Get to history class on time." That sounds fairly easy, right? 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... 0 ... 1 ... 2 ... 3 ... The bell rings at 10:17:03, but you remain in your seat writing your math assignment for tonight, losing twenty seconds. You quickly move down the hall only to hurry up and wait in line at the middle stairs. You attempt to move speedily up the steps by dodging past others, but a freshman elbows you in the knee and a sophomore catches you in the side as he swings his bookbag over his shoulder. You make it to your locker on the third floor. One minute and thirty-five seconds left. You misdial the combination because you tried to open it quickly. You open your locker, put away your English and math books, and pick up your ten-pound history book and

your religion books. "Yo, do we need our Bibles today?" you call to a classmate. "Yeah," he replies, and you have another book to carry. Forty-five second left. Your history class is in room 109. You walk down the hall past the typing room. You see Brother Linus and greet him: "Hello, brother." He responds, "Hello, Good Boy. Number Ten Boy. Your a Good Boy. What are you?" "A Good Boy, Brother," you say as you continue to the stairs. Thirty-five seconds left. Hopping down the steps, you try to slide by others who move at a more leisurely pace than your own. You form your own third lane, bumping shoulders on both sides. Bursting through the first floor doors, you are nearly broadsided by Mr. Miller and his A-V cart, but you adroitly jump aside. "Just missed another," he mutters. Ten seconds. 9 ... 8 ... 7 ... Room 109 is just ahead. 6 ... 5 ... 4 ... 3. You're in the door with three seconds to spare.

Strange, they don't seem too happy.

ULTIMATE coo

Sophomore year is supposed to be a "bridge" here at La Salle, between the end of your grade school/ high school career and your high school/college career. But let's get real. We all know that sophomore year is a time to sandwich the challenges of the curriculum in between getting in trouble and becoming a smart guy (a.k.a. "wise fool"). Of course, a sophomore has priorities; it just happens that schoolwork is about fourth on the list. We should clarify that actual classes are fourth on the list. School is surely one of our favorite places to be, but mostly after classes are over. After school, activities are a typical sophomore thing to engage in: dances, Band, Stage Crew, sports, hanging around in front of the school trying to impress girls as they walk in the door, or picking on Freshmen. We're most interested in the subject of girls, because they have seemed to just discover us, the humble members of the class of 1992. We are now no longer freshmen. We seem to be getting more (some?) recognition as humans. No longer does an attractive female, after asking us what year we are in, get a disappointed look in her eyes and hastily walk away. Now we get ... conversation; now we get spoken to at Phillip Ahn Mark Ammaturo Matt Anastasi John Anisko Matthew Arbogast Mike Bacica Rob Barth Derek Bennis Vince Blatney Mike B'Oris William Bott Matt Boyd James Brandt Daniel Bransfield Mike Brusca Leo Burke Michael Burns Jeff Burrell Jon Byrnes Alvin Cabato Tim Callahan Joe Carrello Ray Casale Joseph Cieplinski Chris Citrino Jay Cody Dan Collins Frank Conti Steve Cook Francis Corcoran

Now freshman year was like a tortuous journe through a veritable snake-pit of turmoil. (Well, nc really, but we like to think so.) That is how we justif picking on the freshmen. Actually, we have not bee that bad. According to the Daily Bulletin, "NO SUCl DAY EXISTS," so Freshman Day came and went wit nary an incident ... but just wait until the first sno1,.1 fall! (Just kidding, Brother Robert.) As one of our e: teemed, studious classmates put it: "Yo! We had it ju, as bad, so we gotta give those little squids what w got!" Anyhow, freshman year is supposed to be "learning experience." The sophomore year provides a distinctive diffe ence from the curriculum of freshman year. Now, a the classes proclaim themselves as "--IL" In E1 lish, we get to read The Catcher in the Rye and all. W search for a starfish's stomach in Biology. In Algebr II, we experience the excitement of graphing points i space.

Group shot of the "Society of Ht Sophomores."

Sophomore year leads us, hopefully, to becoming true "High School Students" (editor's note: "seniors"). Seriously, we should do well so we can remember it as a good year academically. We should also enjoy all the activities and social events we can. College concerns aren't too far away. Advice to future sophomores is: Don't blow it, study, work, stay away from those J.P. notes, and have one of the best years of your life. To year-ending sophomores, we say "Wasn't it great?"

The very best teachers, however, have the proper attitude toward lateness; these right-thinking teachers can see that sending you for a late slip only makes you miss more of the most important class on your roster - theirs - and allow you into class without a slip if you are not overly late. Every student has experience being late. What becomes of this lateness depends on the student, his teachers, and Mr. Diehl, Mr. Parisi and Mrs. Mullen. Just remember, it's NEVER your fault that you're late.

MIDNIGHT HOUR Students struggle with tax forms.

"T'was the night before finals, with a dumfounded stare, a student seemed restless and faced with despair. For ten months he had put off his school work and studies, to cruise South Street and party with all of his buddies. He did not realize the problems he'd cause, from the lack of self-discipline, morals, or laws. "I'm watching cartoons Mom, can't you leave me alone? My homework is something I can always postpone." So that's how it went throughout the school year; exam days got closer and soon they were here. Suddenly the student, realizing his jam, knew it was time for the all-night cram. He got every book and note he could find, sat at his desk and broadened his mind. He went over the theorems, the Amendments and such, and quickly discovered he didn't know much. After hours of working his eyes faded out and reading on further was highly in doubt. The student then rested his cumbersome head, and had dreams of forgetting all that he read. The inevitable outcome has been left untold; you must decide from what viewpoint you hold. Can treaties, algorithms, elements, or grams be safely remembered by someone who crams??

The adjustments to entering a new school made the freshman's first days full of anxiety and fear. Each freshman was nervous that he would be branded a "Frosh" by getting lost, losing a homework, or buying the wrong book. Their fears were, however, irrational; they suffered from Froshophobia. On the first day, one clearly determined yet disquieted freshman was observed throughout the day. 路 First period, he had English with Mrs. Brown in room 218. Upon exiting home room in room 208, he turned the wrong way and headed towards room 201. Fortunately, he realized his error and did not sit in on the A. P. Biology class. He turned around, ran back down the hall, and made it to English just before the bell. Second period, he had Band. He knew exactly where the Band Room was, yet he was still late. He also realized he had forgotten his trombone.

During fifth lunch, he took ten minutes to g, through the line because he didn't ask the lunch ladi< for food assertively enough. Next, he wanderE around between the tables for five minutes looking f, a place to sit. He spotted a classmate from Englii class and sat next to him, initiating a friendship. His sixth period class was Algebra ll-X, with Mr Dugan as his teacher and with mostly sophomores , his classmates. The stories he had heard about "Fres man Day" and the comment from that sophomo: earlier in the day made him now more nervous than l had felt all day. When that class ended without hara~

1ent from sophomores, he felt he may be able to shed rie "Frosh" label. In seventh period, back with other freshmen in Hisory, Mr. Turner, with his "How to be cool like me" tyle, soothed his freshman fears. In eighth period, however, he became a FROSH ... \ three-dimensional FROSH. He should have gone to tis German I class in room 316 but instead went to a ;panish class in room 312. It took him fifteen minutes o realize his mistake. Fifteen minutes?!? And he ouldn't tell the difference between a senior Spanish lass a freshman German class? FROSH!!! After several more days of consternation, this fresh1an began to move about the school with greater onfidence. He gradually realized the irrationality of tis fears and overcame his Froshophobic affliction.

GUESS"C" A La Salle freshman woke up one 'ateful Tuesday morning oblivious to Nhat lay ahead. He was still very tired 'IS he got dressed and ate breakfast. He Nas so tired that he was looking inside :he cereal box for the prize (x-ray glass~s). Then he remembered the NEDT :esting. He was in panic. He couldn't go o school that day and fill in tiny circles Nith his #2 pencil! Then he rememJered the line, "A man's gotta do what 't man's gotta do." So, off he went to _a Salle to complete the mosaic of )Vais. The parts of the test, such as 1/Jathematics, Comprehension, Vo:abulary, Social Studies, Reading, Scimce Reading, and I think, a Sesame ,treet character identification chart

(Elmo's the little red guy, right?) were not difficult at all for him. Just when his hopes had reached their peak, there came the "shapes" test. It was awful. Two or three alien figures appeared before him and he had to decide how to make the shapes fit together into one shape, such as a triangle or an octagon ... or home plate. Overall, the freshman's test was easy. Please remember the next time you get the NEDT "crazies," it might not be as arduous as you thought it would be. (Or, it might be worse than you ever thought it could be!) You might have to someday connect the ovals and create one of those shapes!

After eating from the vast variety of so-called edible food cooked in the cafeteria, one finds oneself selecting candy and ice-cream to cover the terrible aftertaste left in his mouth. Consisting mainly of junk food, products found in Betty's territory have the substantial amounts of sugar necessary to a high school student. Products such as Spree, Mambas, and Jolly Ranchers supply st.udents with the extra energy needed to battle their way through the stairwells, while adding, at the same time, additional substances which even highly-educated La Salle students cannot pronounce. Unfortunately for students with an early lunch, the effect of the sugar has worn off by the time they reach their eighth period class. Faced with the task of remaining awake, students must rely on their limited hours of sleep from the night before.

After years of experience, upperclassmen, to kee their health, realize that it is best to avoid the plattei by bringing a bagged lunch and afterwards purchasin candy in the cafeteria made by real food companie: Usually the food found in the area near Betty is saf( although unsuspecting students following this genen rule were surprised this year after purchasing froze yogurt. Dispensed from a state-of-the-art tin can, thi new delicacy leaves a most annoying aftertaste if on is lucky enough to eat it before it melts. For anyon concerned with the disposal of the left over yogurt c the end of the day, fear not: remaining flavors ar dumped into a plastic container and saved for anothE day, where they are combined to form such culinar delights as Wild Swiss, Peanut Vanilla, and Fudg Banana Chocolate and Strawberry.

Although it poisons our bodies over a long period of four years, the cafeteria still provides a great service to the students. It enables us to administer the large amounts of junkfood we can never find at home into our systems. The cafeteria also helps students financially. But most importantly, La Salle students can be proud of their cafeteria. After all, how many other local schools have a Dining Hall for a cafeteria?

EAPQN __ La Salle is facing a crisis. No, it is not the continually rising tuition, nor is it the deluge of freshmen clogging the stairwells. This crisis is much more serious. The crisis I speak of is the overabundance in the halls of ... backpacks! What began as a fad just a few years ago has exploded to dangerous proportions. One does not have to look far to spot a backpack. They are everywhere - beside desks, under lunch tables, hanging in lockers, and, of course, slung over the shoulder of nearly every student. Eddie Bauer, Eastpack, Jansport, North Face, Colorado Backpack, LL. Bean - name the brand, it will most likely be found in the halls. La Salle now resembles a mail-order bonanza from outdoor-gear catalogs.

With each new backpack, yet another obstacle adc to the chaos in the halls and stairwells between classe Even more than frantic freshman, a fully loaded bacl pack poses a grave threat to the personal safety of an careless student in transit to his next class. A bacl pack filled with books feels like a ton of bricks whe swung into the face of someone who fails to pay atte1 tion to the guy in front of him carrying his whole locki in a backpack. That is just one way a backpack ca ruin a day. Besides the face mash, there is of cours, the squeeze play, where a loaded backpack crushi an unwary student against the wall. The stair scare yet another hazard. In this case, a student in the stai well suddenly leans back, shoving his backpack inl the face of the guy behind him balanced precarious

The tide cannot be stemmed, for most students still swear by the value and convenience of a backpack's utility. So please, carry a backpack with care. A loaded backpack is a lethal weapon. The school's storage area for confiscated weaponry.


(title forthcoming) You're sitting in eighth period on a Monday pondering the immense amount of homework you have tonight: an English paper, history report, chemistry, lab report, a Spanish test, and a geometry test. You curse your teachers for a while, and then you kick yourself a few times for not going to a public high school. Of course none of this is your teachers' or school's fault as much as it is yours. After all, you've known about these three assignments for a week now, and you should've at least gotten started on a few of them. But you didn't. So what else is new? You decide that the only way to get everything done is to get moving on them the minute the walk in the door. When you arrive home you decide that you better grab a snack first, (but just a little one because you really have to get started immediately). But while you're making your cheesesteak you see that Geraldo has victims of a satanic cult on his show. You figure your homework can wait just another hour, and you convince yourself that Geraldo is an "educational" show anyway. Geraldo ends, and it is now 5 o'clock. You begin to unpack your books, and you admit that you're getting a little worried as you realize that you have a long night ahead of you. Just then the phone rings and your friend informs you that there's a street-hockey game at the park. You explain that you have more homework tonight than he'll probably have all year (your friend goes to a public high school), and as a result you won't be able to play. Your friend then asks where your priorities lie. So then you convince yourself that there's plenty of time left in the afternoon for your work, and besides "all work and no play" isn't good Gene Whitaker Nathan Will John Wilson Mark Wimmer Jeremy Winters

This is the section of the book where, traditionally, the editors co-write a paragraph telling how much we worked, and then proceed to make fun of each other. We'll skip the first part - you be the judge of how much and how well we worked - and move right to the mockery. Lou "E-in-C" Mincarelli, Editor-whothinks-he-is-in-charge, had the annoying habit of getting intestinal pains around deadline time. Best known for his truly devastating comebacks, Lou also frequently extorts candy from meek staffers. In his spare time, Lou enjoys buying soda and appointing new editors. Doug "The Overseer" Staudmeister, Not-Quite-Editor-in-Chief, clung desperately to the claim that he didn't do layouts, only copy. His beautifully designed folio tabs and headlines brighten the book. Mr. Roche made a mistake that day; he really wanted Steve. Doug's hobbies include arguing, and taking F-15s into sudden nose dives. Paul "Lefty" Bonfanti,Editor-incharge-of-bad-jokes-and-silly-posters, bugged all the other editors in order to "co-ordinate accurate information." Yes, he is a pinko leftist communist (and actually seems to be proud of it); so he got to do all the boring jobs. He cultivates beards in his free time.

@WJlfb-QfF'. (lfllflf}lffllfllll1ยง,~ While a La Salle student is reading some of Brother Linus's jokes or some Explorer sports news in his copy of the Wisterian, he may not realize the hard work that went into making that issue. The Wis staff put in long hours to create that newspaper - a publication which has experienced many changes this year. The reader doesn't experience the unavoidable chaos that eventually gives birth to the Wisterian. He doesn't realize some (most?) of the copy he's reading was handed in late, taking five years off Editor-in-Chief Nick Caputo's life. No matter how organized and wellplanned Nick, Associate Editor Jason Zoto, and Moderator William Geiger strive to be with each issue, panic reigns at deadline time. Nonetheless, we're sure that most readers enjoy the paper - and we get to revel in some satisfaction in seeing the printed product. Any La Salle student who has read past years Wises must have noticed some changes in the 1989-1990 model.

Francis Johnsorl h~s joined the.staJf as co-Moderator. iThe paper itself <l.S: sumed a profes;io~al loo~ andstylethis year, with a bolqly diverse layout,striking headlines, s~udent by-lines, dever cartooning, inte~esting and.informative articles, and few,. if any; punctuation and speling er}ors?

We, the Community Service Corps provide a valuable service (so we are told), but it's not all work. A recent poll of the members showed what their fa. vorite programs are: 1. The Annual Operation Santa Claus Wrapping Party, held with St. Basil's. 2. The Annual C.S.C. Picnic, held with St. Basil's. 3. The five minutes of Operation Swim (held with the Mount, among other schools) between when one group of kids has left and another has arrived. 4. The Volleyball Tournament. 5. Operation Elderly (No one's quite sure how that got on there). So all the members have their priorities pretty well set. Let's see here: Operation Incentive: Well, the drive over to Holy Family in Roxborough is fun - especially if you're driving. And after you're done tutoring the grade school kids, you get to drive back. And the girls don't hurt. Operation Swim: See number 3 on the list. The friendly La Salle pool gives many opportunities for fun, for both you and the inner city child you are teaching how to swim. And the girls don't hurt.

This year's mathletes team was well coached by the dedicated mathematics legend, Mr. James Roche. The well-trained thoroughbreds, fed on Euclidean theories and prime number trivia, are spurred by a special interest to win all these mathematics derbies. To build the students' confidence, Mr. Roche takes time to review previous contest problems with them, but more enjoyably, to bring a relaxed attitude to Mathletes, Mr. Roche talks about such topics as the WWF and La Salle Social Events. Mr. Frizalone makes himself present at the competitions, sometimes in his athletic gear, to psyche out the competitors. Seniors Chris Pico and Dan Clash (President and Vice-President, respectively) lead the math marauders into the monthly math melee for La Salle. With its dedication to academic achievement and to fun, the Mathletes team exemplifies La Salle's tradition in humanistic education.

A delightful experience that a skier won't forget, the 1990 La Salle Ski Trip included beautiful scenery, challenging trails, and good company. This season the students visited the resorts of Smuggler's Notch, Stowe and Sugarbush for three days of carving, shredding, and "jamming". This trip included a snowboarder, senior Sean Iaquinto (dressed in vivid day-glo limeyellow and visible anywhere on the mountain), for the first time. Although the 5000' high mountains awed them, the skiers bashed their way down each trail with agility, determination, and only one broken hand! The conditions at all three resorts improved over the weekend - several

"Here we are at mile 73 of the 104 Tour LaSalle. I am Brian O'Malley. Along side me is my colleague, former cycling great, Guillaume Forgeron. The riders are rolling past us right now. They are starting to look a bit fatigued, wouldn't you say, Guillaume?" "Ah, oui, but zey stopped for lunch about fifteen miles ago, so zey should still be fairly strong, no?" "Our technicians just clocked the riders at 24 miles per hour. This speed check was brought to you by the Springfield Township Police (Paper Mill Rd. Division). For all you do, this radar is aimed at you. That's a pretty good pace at this stage of the ride, right Guillaume?" "Oui. Ze riders are doing a good job of keeping cadence high. By maintaining RPM's at a high level, zey are able to travel at zis speed wissout becoming, uh, tres fatigues. Ze riders will appraoch a long downhill stretch in ze next mile. We can expect zem to reach speeds of 40 miles per hour." "40 m.p.h. That's quite impressive. After the downhill section, Guillaume,

what do the cyclists have to look forward to?" "Ze terrain zat will cross is rolling but with no large climbs or descents. As zey continue to ride however, zey will grow more tired, and to zeir eyes, ze climbs will look not long enough. Zeir legs will become En Compote, ah, like applesauce, and zeir chests will feel like zey are going to explode." "Here comes Brother Joe Myers, moderator of the Bike Club and the organizer of the Tour LaSalle, backing up the riders in the van. Let's see if we can get a word with him. Brother Joe, how were your riders feeling at the last break?" "Well ... Brian, each said that he felt strong. I told them to think of pedaling small circles, and go with the flow." "Thank you, Brother. That was extremely ... uh ... interesting. Back to Brent Musberger in New York for an update on baseball scores from around the nation.

The La Salle Band, under the direction of Mr. Joseph Ciccimaro provides the background music for the La Salle community. Within the La Salle Band program, many different groups and styles of music underscore numerous activities and programs within and outside of the La Salle community. The diversitiy of the music program includes such things as the concert band, stage band, pep band, Dixieland band, percussion ensemble, guitar ensemble, and the vocal group. As a result of this variety, the student who has any interest in music can find something that suits him (unles it involves the glockenspiel). Also with this variety of programs, many students take lessons for instruments that they have never played before (like the exciting bass oboe). The Band surely effects harmony in the La Salle community. At football games, the pep band will always be there spiritedly supporting our team

QWIWfrlldC?flIJJ -----""'! When you ask any senior about how the senior retreats went, most will respond in song, singing - both the French ("Honneur a-toi") and English versions, nonetheless the praises of St. John Baptist de la Salle. As corny as that may sound (or actually is), it was singing, among other things, that brought La Salle's senior class closer together. Over a four-week period, some 230 seniors participated in a retreat into the soul - an experience that will remain with them a lifetime. For some, it was their last retreat; for others, it was just the first step toward introspection. But for all, it was momentous. Everybody participated and got something in return, even if merely a chance to find some quiet time with one's thoughts. The retreats were held at the Malvern Retreat House. About 50 seniors

I hope that in the future, you will take into consideration the affect your magazine has on the minds of American's youth. Deeply Concerned, Tunkhannock, PA

Dear Perturbed, We are shocked and appalled by the unprofessionalism of the editors of other publications who wantonly eliminate white space by including useless supplements often thinly veiled as interest in their readers' opinions.

RE: Student Council Election

Speech

Good morning faculty and students. I am your name, and I am running for student council president. Standing next to me are my two runnings mates, 1. semi-serious V.P. and 2. popular buffoon. I had a speech prepared

for today, but I decided not to use it. (act casual) I'll just tell you some of the things we will do if we are elected. We plan to do many things to promote school spirit and student involvement. First, we would like to increase the number of pep rallies and mixers. Second, we would like to bring back the Attack Pack (good rhyme), although it's been invisible every other year.* Also, we want to increase attendance at sporting events, although I myself never go We will do this by providing transportation to and from away games. This either.* will allow underclassmen who don't drive to the games (optional if speaking to freshmen and sophomores). Also, we would like to have a specially designated section for students only, as if the students don't all stand together anyway.* We plan word) by having more pep rallies with girls 0 , dressto raise school spirit.(catch down days, and Blue and Gold Days. (At this point,

mention your own idea)

If we are elected we would also like to increase

colllTIUl1icationbetween student council and the student body.• In the past, the students did not know when meetings were held and therefore, they were not made aware of the council's activities. Because of this, students were not able to participate. If we are elected (keep repeating), we will implement (power word) a plan to utilize suggestion boxes to better communicate with the student body.• We will also have general meetings open to all students during the school day.® 0 Also, if we are elected we plan to increase the number of intramurals and make them co-ed. 0 We will also have stricter enforcement of the testing days.(No one knows what they are,* but it appeals to kids with 8 tests that day.) lie would also like to begin a Lacrosse team at LaSalle because there are many students who would be interested, and besides, it's becoming tradition to mention Lacrosse in these speeches.* So tomorrow, remember a vote for Thank you.

Balls and, as one of the balls used in practice all season, I had a privileged, close-up, "hands on" look at the successes of the La Salle championship football team last fall. The team started practicing in mid-August, preparing to defend their 10-1 record and Northern Division Championship. Head Coach Joseph Colistra reminded the team to take one step at a time. He would say, before each game, that this game "is your most important game, because it is your next game" (made sense to me!). The season opener against Upper Dublin saw an outstanding effort from Senior Martin Feeny and Juniors Kevin Schmidt and Craig Fitzgerald on defense. On offense, Keith Tornetta scored first, but it was a drive engineered by Joseph McNichol at quarterback which won the game when he connected with David DeMara in the end zone. The team prepared to assert their place in the standings when they played Archbishop Ryan. The Raiders stole the game, but La Salle looked ahead to Bishop McDevitt. Brian Daly and John Slowick played hard on defense, but the team still lost. One bright spot was the repositioning of Senior Chris Massella at quarterback. He helped La Salle make the game closer in the fourth quarter, providing a spark for the games to come. After the two losses, Offensive Coordinator Joseph McNichol was "not buying it" and Coach Colistra kept exclaiming, for some strange reason, my last name. New faces appeared around me (and some new hands on me) in practice as

the coaches looked for new combinations of players to find victory. Even as I watched with my buddies from the practice bag, something paid off as La Salle defeated Archbishop Wood, 147, then Cardinal Dougherty, 34-0. In the next game the defense shut down Bishop Egan, and contributed eight points itself. Jim Convey got a safety after Keith Conlin caused a fumble. And Martin Feeny ran for a touchdown on a fumble recovery. The team had successfully fought back from a 0-2 record, but it needced to win its next two games to make the Playoffs. A 26-7 victory over Judge vaulted La Salle into second place behind McDevitt in the Northern Division. Next, a win against North Catholic ensured a playoff berth. Chris Massella' s passing and Jason Pennington's rushing gave the Explorers a 34-6 victory and a shot at the Championship. The first playoff game came against Father Judge, a team sore for revenge. A great performance by the defense subdued Judge's emotions, yielding no points, only three yards rushing, sixtythree yards total, and forcing two fumble recoveries and three interceptions. Chris Massella found Dave "Skippy" DeMara wide open in the end zone and John Slowick added a big rushing touchdown to make the final 14-0. The next game was for the Northern DivisionTitle against Bishop McDevitt. Coach Colistra got the team in shape and the defense dominated from the opening drive. Jason Pennington took the ball fifty yards for a touchdown and a tie. In the fourth quarter, La Salle forced a McDevitt punt, and it fell into the hands of the Wolf, Brian Daly. In a

comical return, Daly started running towards the sidelines, but he decided to cut back, right into fellow captain, Martin Feeny. Martin seemed to point downfield as he fell down, and the Wolf saw the path. A few strategically designed, uh, blocks freed the seventy-six yard return for a touchdown, but "no flag, no foul." La Salle won the Northern Division! Next, was Roman Catholic and the PCL title, Right? Most definitely wrong! Thanksgiving interceded and that meant the Prep. Prep had the most powerful offense in the Catholic League, but La Salle shut them out. "D. Backs" Rock, Daly, Butler and McGoldrick frustrated the Prep's All-Catholic quarterback, Frank Costa. On offense, Martin Feeny and sophomore Max Guevara both had fine days rushing while Vince Linus added a field goal. The final, 16-0. Finally, the team faced Roman. The game took place at Villanova on astroturf, December 2, 1989. The game quickly evolved into a great defensive battle with both offenses stymied. The defense made up for that when a fumble occurred in the end zone, and Jim Convey fell on it for the TD. At the start of the second half, Roman's kick off squirmed between Vince Galzerano' s legs and Brian Daly picked it up. Roman's coverage was too busy looking for the ball to notice Brian Daly scampering for a touchdown. The defense also intercepted Roman five times, including three by Daly. They had it: A 13-0 final, the defense's fifth shut out, and La Salle first PCL football title since 1962! Way to go Champs!

MPIONSHIP The Junior Varsity finished its season with a record of 4-4 - not a banner year for the team. But the J. V. prepares players for the Varsity team and they lost many players to Varsity throughout the year. Behind the offensive line of John Brackin, Sean Hendrick, Dom Maida, Shawn O'Brien, and John Pluck, the offensive leaders were Joe McNichol at Quarterback, Chris Hasson at Tight End, and Steve Cook and Max Guevara at Running Back. Defensive leaders included Back James Cairnes and Matt Romano. All of these players will be important parts

of the 1990 Varsity Team. The Freshman Football Team, coached by Mr. Joseph Radvansky, Senior Brian Gibson, and Junior Will Spearing, finished with a 5-2 record. Chris Convey led the offense from fullback, shining in a very balanced attack. Defensive standouts Mike Adamo, Kevin Conlin, and Tim Donahue kept the opponents' offenses from doing their jobs. I am sure all the freshmen will stay with the football program, and help continue its success - or my name isn't "Foot B. Balls."

Jason Pennington sports the newest championship fashion.

ASHING Hello, and welcome once again to LaSalle Varsity Basketball. I am How-_ ard Teskin, your announcer, and I'll be taking you through the 1989-1990 season. The Explorers opened their season with a series of non-league games .. They easily handled Carroll and the Prep, but ran into tougher competition, falling just short to Bishop Neumann and losing big to nationally ranked Simon Gratz. Over Christmas vacation, the squad traveled to Richmond, Virginia to take part in the Benedictine Capital City Classic. Competition came from all over the East coast, but LaSalle was able to finish in third place. Both Jarrod Macklin and Chris Lazorcheck were named to the All-Tournament team. So, with a 2-2 record, LaSalle opened Northern Division play with three losses on the road, to Egan, McDevitt, and North. However, in the same series of games, the squad topped the teams that were to finish 1st and 2nd in the league (Kenrick and Ryan). And despite the disappointing loss to McDevitt, the Explorers bounced back with a five-game winning streak. in the streak, LaSalle paid back _ Egan for their earlier defeat, and topped division rivals Dougherty, Wood, and Judge. After losing to Kenrick, LaSalle came back with another streak, this time a three-game. The Explorers defeated Ryan, and topped McDevitt and North, ensuring no divisional team would be undefeated against LaSalle. Against Ryan, Guard

Ernie Koschineg hit seven three-pointers on his way to a 29-point game. Victories against Dougherty and Wood ensured the Explorers third place, and clinched a playoff spot. In the first playoff game, LaSalle faced Ryan, the second place team in the division. The two teams fought to the buzzer, but LaSalle emerged on top, 52-49, and went to the division finals - at the Palestra. LaSalle faced Father Judge at the Palestra, with the winner going to face Roman Catholic for the League title. It wasn't even close. The Explorers, led by Chris Lazorcheck, easily rolled over Judge, 53-45. And so it came to pass that another rematch between Roman and LaSalle occurred. The Palestra played host to the two warring squads, hundreds of loyal LaSalle fans, and one or two Roman students. LaSalle took an early lead, and Tom Butler sunk a last second three-pointer to close the half with LaSalle up by nine. However, Roman quickly came back in the second half, and only a great run by LaSalle in the fourth quarter kept Roman from taking the title easily. With the game tied in the last seconds of the half, great LaSalle defense kept Roman from scoring and forced overtime. The three-minute overtime was a war of defense, and no points were scored until the last seconds. Roman, after wasting a minute of time, sunk a field goal with six seconds remaining on the clock. Desperate shots by Chris Lazorcheck and Ernie Koschineg both fell short, and the season was over.

Macklin eyes up another three-pointer.

C K S Although not many soccer enthusi路 asts recognize me, I have an important job in the game. I always catch the ball if the goalie happens to miss it. Howev路 er, this year it se~med as though I did not have to catch it as often. La Salle's offense, as well as defense, improved this season, which means I wasn't scored into as often. Once the offense improved, it took the pressure of win路 ning the game off the defense. Even though there was improvement, they still had their share of unfortunate losses. One game in which I never tast路 ed the leather was against Ryan, which was highly-ranked in the state and the nation. The blue and gold-shirted La Salle booters scored a goal, while their defense kept everything from getting

too close to that guy in front of me wearing the weird gloves. This year's varsity captains were Vince Linus, John Deluisi, and Tim Brennan, who each proved to be strong assets to the team. After the top varsity goalie, Greg Ciaverelli, suffered major knee injuries, senior George Naulty filled his position in front of me. He proved to be another quick, courageous player who kept me from having to eat the ball. I recently heard one Varsity player saying that it was this year's seniors who provided a foundation for their winning season, with a record of 10-4 in the league and 12-5 overall. As the varsity improved over last year, I hope they improve even __ more for next year.

CORD They're playing soccer. Ok?

This year's J. V. Soccer team also was an overall strong one, accumulating a fine record. Their team captains, Ed Kiernan, Craig Neverosky, and Joe Ricci, gave the team as much determination as they could. La Salle's freshman team also held strong in this year's season. With many freshmen and sophomores preparing to fill varsity vacancies left by graduating seniors, La Salle's soccer team seems ready to conquer next year's challenges. I don't mind if I never have to inhale those opponents' shots. Now, if they'd only stop kicking those rocket shots off my skinny top lip ...

They're still playing soccer.

R In the "returning champions tour," the 1989-90 LaSalle swim season was a year for dominance in the Catholic League. The team easily beat even their toughest opponents, O'Hara and Ryan, and had very good performances from the entire team at the Eastern Interscholastic Championships, and the National Catholic Championship meet. The team easily extended their unbeaten streak to 19 meets over the last two years. Led by second-year coach Jay Platt and tri-captains Bill Rothenbach, Jason Gathman, and Chris Korman, the team focused on the usual defining characteristic of LaSalle swim teams: WINNING! It was a deep, well-balanced team behind seniors Bill Francoeur, Chris Schalleur, Rob Fluehr, and Rob Dager, juniors Kevin Gray, Ryan Young, and Kevin Scully, and sophomores Dave Gathman, Keith Krelovich, John Weiss, and Shawn Melley. Super swims characterized the team's post season performance. The medley relay team of Bill Rothenbach, Jason Gathman, Ryan Young, and Dave Gathman set a school record while the free style relay of Dave Gathman, Bill Rothenbach, Chris Schalleur,

and Keith Krelovich also set a school record. And BillRothenbach also broke a 21 year old school record in the 100 free. The Catholic League Championship meet proved, of course, equally successful. On their way to a second consecutive title, the team set a new league record by scoring 634 points, swamping the closest competition by some 260 points. On their way to this impressive victory, the te.am had 14 different swimmers earn All-Catholic honors. Making such a "big splash" were the medley team of Bill Rothenbach, Jason Gathman, Dave Gathman, and Ryan Young, and the free relay of Chris Schaller, Rob Dager, Chris Korman, and Keith Krelovich, while individually Chris Schalleur (200 free and 500 free), Chris Korman (200 free and 100 free), Rob Fluehr (50 free), Jason Gathman and Kevin Gray (100 breast), Ryan Young and Kevin Scully (100 'fly), Keith Krelovich (200 IM and 500 free), Dave Gathman (50 free and 100 'fly), John Weiss (200 IM), and Shawn Melley (100 back) were all named AllCatholic. Congratulations on an excellent season to all the swimmers!

OURT After failing to make the playoffs for the first time in ten years, the tennis team at the start of the season looked to regain position in the Catholic League post-season play. Puddle· dodging and chilly temperatures marked the early practices. Speaking in cliches (as usual), senior Rob Donahue said, "It's not the cold, though. It's the wind that's the problem. The wind intensifies the cold and makes the balls do tricks like stopping and turning right in mid air." "Right, Rob!" Coach Drew Stockmal led the team through the wind, cold, and rain to SPRING, and the sunshine of April. The team faced many of its toughest opponents during that month, including

Yeah, Tom, like you're not overacting.

the Prep, Carroll, and defending cham· pions, Ryan. Besides the flowers, May brought matches against Wood, Neumann, and West Catholic. Coach Stockmal count· ed on the play of seniors Marc Med· vetz, Tom Balshi, and Rob Donahue, juniors Carlos Torres, Rick Rojas, and C.B. Mulhern to carry the team to the playoffs. In spite of tiring practices and tough losses, the team's spirit remained jovi· al. The constant banter between Coach Drew and Rob kept the team loose. In fact, by the end of the season, Drew had to withstand verbal, uh, backhands from the entire team.

At LaSalle, we pride ourselves on our great service.

Of course, the Varsity team drew on the "minor leagues" - the Junior Varsity team. JV Coach, Mr. George Denacola, nurtured the talent at this level into determined, top-notch ballplayers. The developing team, which saw games against the same opponents as the Varsity squad, made players ready for the "big show." The team was quite successful, and many players were "called up" by the Varsity team when their talents were needed. This year, LaSalle had an addition to the main programs: a freshman team. Coached by Mr. Tore Hanssen, the team gave novice players even more experience in Catholic League competition, allowing our ballplayers to be more competitive and talented by the time they reach Varsity.

OK For the first time in its history, the LaSalle Wrestling team entered the ranks of the local powerhouses. The slow rebuilding that took place throughout the previous three years yielded a motivated, highly-skilled wrecking crew that was capable of overpowering its competition. Under captains Mike O'Meara, Mike Haye,s, Brent Stanek, and Mike Bate, the team followed its "quiet and intense" work ethic to new heights. Alongside these lea.ders were four .consistent workhorses vital to the year's success: senior Gilbert Idhaw, junior ban .Crowe, and freshmen Mike Sheridan and Tom Panzarella. The year was highlighted by a solid thrashing of the eventual Catholic League Champions Bishop Egan. T.he e.xcitement generated by the fans _ flooded the gym with unbearable tension. Then, the lights grew dim and out shot the Explorers to the theme track of "Halloween." The explosiveness and spirit of the team made both the evening and the season nightmarish for its opponents. The Varsity posted a final team re-

s

cord of 11-4 and also achieved second place finishes at both the LaSalle Christmas Tournament and the Lower Moreland Tournament. On the Junior Varsity level, LaSalle clearly showed its depth by easily taking the Catholic League J.V. Tournament. This. year was a year of individual accomplishments as well as team success. Brent Stanek earned First T earn All-Catholic honors and posted his 58th career win, over three years. Gilbert Idhaw, Mike Bate, and Louis Tulio each earned Third Team All-Catholic honors. Tom Panzarella and John "JV" Russo each placed fifth at the National Preps among fields of 92 competitors per weight class. Mike O'Meara placed eighth at the National Preps and ended his three-year career with 64 varsity victories. Following the successful season, the team looks to the future with confidence in continued achievement. But as for now, it will look for the nearest all-you-can-eat restaurant, Wendy's Superbar or Friendly's Ice Cream Eatery.

Oh no! It's the dreaded flamingo maneuver!


God,

it looks like fun.

VOTS After winning the Catholic League Golf Championship last year, this year's team again looked to slice up the competition this year in the Catholic League. In addition to the new golfers who tried out in March, most of last season's valuable linksters returned. Returning All-Catholic golfers included seniors Joe Bonargo and Joe Mooney, and junior Jim Maher. Juniors Joe Morrisey and Dan Walls, varsity letter winners last year, also chipped in to give opponents a rough time on the course. Promising junior varsity letter winners of last year Dave O'Malley, Jay Cody, Steve Herrera, and Tom Craig moved up to compete at the varsity level. While the team depended on all of its players to win another

championship for LaSalle, the leadership fell to Joe Bonargo and Joe Mooney. Squads from O'Hara, Carroll, and Wood proved to be the team's stiffest competition, yet LaSalle dispatched its opponents, drawing on the talent of the players and the inspirational tradition of the team's nine league titles in the past twelve years. Brother Al Lumley, who said at the start of the season, "We will be a contender for this year," again guided his golfers past the gulf-like water hazards and the Sahara-sized sand traps. Brother Al, with thirteen years of coaching experience at LaSalle made sure his elite group did not just "drive for show." He knows you don't win golf championships gagging on those three-foot putts!

CORE LaSalle's ice hockey team has undergone some massive changes over the past four years. In 1986, LaSalle had only 18 skaters, who made up a lone J.V. team. This year, however, the program included a Varsity squad, a J.V. squad, and a novice program (for those just learning how to tie their skate laces!) There are now six coaches for the three teams and more than 50 players. This year's Varsity team finished with a winning record and made the playoffs. The team's new success can be accredited largely to the installment of the new head coach, Peter Nolan. Peter Nolan, a graduate of LaSalle High School and an extremely intense individual, tolerated nothing (and we mean absolutely nothing!) short of a hundred percent from his players. Through his grueling "skate till you puke" practices, he formulated a superbly-conditioned, motivated, and confident team. The Varsity team was led equally well by nine seniors. The team's defense was one of the best in the league. Dave Smith, a six-foot-two defenseman, sent many an opposing forward off the ice early with some devastating open-ice checks, while Chris Ruser exhibited the ability to carry the puck coast-to-coast with his speed. The offense consistently outshot the opponent. Seniors Jim Dever and Greg Curci, and juniors Mark McCann, Chris Glessner, and John Schulden accounted for the majority of the team's goals. Jim Dever's speed and playmaking ability coupled with Greg Curd's wristshot proved a nightmare for goaltenders. As good as this season was for the ice hockey team, next year looks even more promising. Rob Barth and Nick DiArenzo still have three more years in the net. McCann, Glessner, and Schulden will lead the offense next year, while Gil Hudson, the only freshman to play Varsity, will be back on defense for three more years. Having grown more popular every year, LaSalle Ice Hockey finally established itself through expert coaching, committed participation, and much-improved play. And, this year, we probably could have beaten the Flyers!

CTORY This year's fall crew season was one of the most successful in recent years. Much of this success resulted from intense practicing. As a member of the team, I was expecting more relaxed practices and more fun. But coaches Robert Reinhart and Anthony Stefanski decided to use fall crew to prepare for the spring season. The training consisted of ergometer tests, 3-5 mile runs, and plenty of rowing.

6-0 by winning the Navy Day regatta, Head of the Charles, Head of the Schuykill, Frostbite and Bill Braxton regattas. The Eight not only dominated the high school ranks, but also the collegiate division, beating boats from Penn, Princeton, and the Naval Academy. The Varsity Four also had a successful season. Coxswain Andy Maude, John Croney, Joe Williamson, Tim Downs, and Rick Courtney finished the season strong, winning the Braxton and Frostbite regattas. The Junior Eight La Salle's best-displayed stamina and strength were at the "Head of the and the Novice Eight also won at the Connecticut," a 3.5 mile race. The Braxton, a race where La Salle boats Varsity Eight of Pat McPhillips, Kevin won every race they were entered in. Hipp, Tom McLaughlin, T.J. Wilson, The Novices won the 1500 meter race Marc Weston, Ryan Tyrrell, Pat Cun- by close to 500 meters. I am sure that the winter training nane, Chuck Calvanese, Mike Wilkin, and Andy Mullen set a course record in program along with the addition of rowtheir race. The boat docked, and rest- ers who played fall sports will guaraned for 20 minutes. Coach Reinhart then tee La Salle another successful season split the eight into two "fours." The in the spring.

ross-country covers the La Salle's Cross Country team finished another successful season with a record.of 18-3. Led by All-Catholic Kevin Scully and second team All-Catholic Chris Ruser, the team ran to an impressive 2nd place finish in Division Champs. Approaching the final race of the year, several teams, including La Salle, had strong possibilities of winning the Catholic League title in what turned out to be the most competitive league in years. Although finishing in a disappointing 5th place in the Catholic League Champs, strong support from underclassmen helped capture 2nd in the J.V. race and 3rd in the Freshman race. Under the experienced coaching of head coach Mr. Pat Devine and assistant coach Mr. Ed McCabe, this year's team endured a long, physically demanding season. Under the warm summer sun, veteran runners began preparing themselves for the fierce competition which would challenge them throughout the cool, and then cooler, months of autumn. Team members, motivated by the senior leadership of co-captains Chris Norris, Chris Ruser and Brian Waerig, officially began training with a five-day running camp in late August. The season continued amid triumph and disappointment, amid injury and improvement, concluding on November 12 when the final meet of the year was held at Belmont Plateau. Strong performances from underclassmen make next year's team look promising. Running well enough to become one of the top three teams in the League remains an achievable goal. For many runners, diligent training, smart running, and gradual improvement will point the way to a championship next fall.

KEN GLASS Some people think of the Indoor Track season as a way to pass the time before Outdoor Track rolls around. But for the athletes of this year's team, it became something far more important. This year's team not only had some of the best athletes in the Catholic League, but some of the best in the state. Mr. John Frizalone led the field crew to undoubtedly its best year ever. School records fell left and right virtually every time senior Martin Feeny hurled the shot put or junior Jack Bush came tearing down the pole vault runway. Martin's throws exceeded 55 feet, breaking the old record by an incredible four feet. Jack's vaulted to the 13 foot mark, a foot and a half higher than the old mark. Both ranked in the Top 10 in Pennsylvania. Jeff Halstead put his name in the record books by _ sprinting in the 60 yard dash in an incredible 6.6 seconds, easily breaking the old record. Jeff also tied the school mark in the 50 yard dash with a time of 5. 7 seconds. High jumper Kyle Evans, with leaps around 6"2' focused his attention on the school high of 6"3' and had his place in the state's Top 10. Mr. Devine and Brother David Rog-

ers strided with the runners to try to achieve nothing short of perfection. The distance medley of Brian and Dave Devine, Chris Norris, and Brian Waerig ran consistently well throughout the season, as did senior runners Ed Miehle, Chris Ginieczki and Matt Booth. The mile relay of Vu Nguyen, Mark Wimmer, John Gorman, and Dave Devine secured themselves a lane in the Meet of Champions, as did many other runners and field men. Junior distance runners Chris Hilty and John Murphy, along with underclassmen John Minnich, Fran Corcoran, Scott Halstead, Dom Maida in the shot put, and Marlin Brown in the high jump will be the backbone in the future. Through all the bounders, striders, 200's, morning loops, weight training, freezing practices, barfing, and "early bird can't catch the worm, cause he's still asleep" meets, the team kept thinking Mr. Friz's famous line, "It's the price you have to pay if you want to be a champion." The training and practicing paid the price in full, and each member of the team can proudly call himself a "Champion." The race looks exciting now, but moments later, Jeff was mugged, shot, crushed by falling brick walls, a piano, and a safe, beat repeatedly by Girl Seoul Troop 12, and flame-broiled.

Although Marty can throw the shot over 57 feel, he can throw fat men no more than three feel. (OK four, lops.)

ULLS Hold it, I just forgot, why am I doing this?

The spring crew season began February 1st with much enthusiasm, despite the calisthenics, the stair-climbing, and the especially grueling ergometer tests contained in virtually every indoor practice. As the winter workouts (which involved weight and endurance training) came to a close, the rowers anticipated the racing season and as a team, set twin goals of winning the Catholic League and repeating last year's championship victory. An excellent coaching staff, headed by Mr. Kenneth Shaw as freshman/novice coach, Mr. Robert Reinhart as varsity coach, and assistants Joseph Sweeney, John Suter, and Robert Ginieczki, guided the team toward its goal. To assist the coaches, senior Tom McLaughlin served as captain. He and a strong corps, including Kevin Hipp, Rich Stagliano, Marc Weston, Pat Cunnane, Chuck Calvanese, and Pat McPhillips provided leadership and commitment to the team, examples which the underclassmen followed. The on-river practices devised by medieval torturer Mr. Reinhart prepared the team for its races. Coaching, senior leadership, a winning attitude, and momentum from the extremely successful fall season propelled the crew to victories and strong showings in the Manny Flick races, the Catholic League and City Champs, the Stotesbury Cup Regatta, and the National Scholastic Rowing Champs. LaSalle crew has surely developed one of the elite high school rowing programs in the country . • • • merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.

During the Revolutionary War, there was a song called, "World Turned Upside-Down." The time has come again for the words of the song to take meaning. During the past twelve months leaders have fallen, governments have toppled, and peoples have been freed. Change began on April 15, 1989, when a large group of students gathered on Tiananmen Square in China calling for democratic reform. Over the next month the movement expanded. By May 15, the number had grown to over one million people. Five days later, martial law was declared, but the troops were driven away from the square by the masses. From this moment, there came what would become a symbol of the struggle for freedom around the world. One Chinese man stood in front of a column of tanks, stopping them in their tracks. On June 3, the government ordered the troops to fire on the protesters.

Within days, what had begun so unexpectedly ended with the killing of an estimated 3,000 people. Although the Chinese rebellion seemed to have failed, within a few months, Poland held free elections. The Solidarity party was able to win all but two of the seats in office. One by one, the governments of the Eastern Bloc fell, borders opened and people voted freely. The democracy movement reached its climax when, on November 9, the Berlin Wall, the drab symbol of the Cold War, was destroyed and hundreds of thousands of East Germans poured into the West for the first time since 1961. Most recently, the Soviet Union, leader of the Communist world, is also beginning to move towards democracy. First, Mikhail Gorbachev promised religious freedom and he is now calling for free elections.

Lech Walesa, Solidarity leader, and President George Bushhold their hands aloft in a sign of victory. The elections in Poland demonstrated the peaceful changes in the world.

Stay In The Activity W I

It has now been almost four full years since that fateful day, when we first walked through the doors of La Salle. Our hands shook, our hearts beat heavily and our stomachs were "full of butterflies." The mere presence of an upperclassman struck us with fear. All ::ifus despised sophomores and juniors, :omplaining that they were the lowest rorms of life. A senior left us with a :iifferent impression. Sure, the sight of them made us panic and stepped out of :heir way in the halls - but we looked 1p to them. A senior was not just taller;

he was confident, fearless, studious and he knew how to dress. Every freshman had once said to himself, "] can't wait until I'm a senior." Well we became seniors and we felt for the most part the same, but there were a few things that were different. Now, the memory of a dweebish freshman accidentally entering our Vietnam class or an open locker brings a grin to all of our faces. Walking through the halls and knowing the class period schedule to the minute is now second nature. Each of us walks through the

O R S?

halls full of confidence. "Uncle Dave" (Mr. Diehl) no longer frightens us (not as much anyway!). Teachers have ceased to question our every move. They just assume that we know what we are doing, or they are just afraid to know what we are doing. The words "College Placement Center" have become synonymous with "hall pass" since its strategic relocation. La Salle has been good to us seniors by letting us do what we do best, be ourselves.

Does LaSalle have enough school spirit? YES 29.5% Every year, nothing much is done about school spirit simply because student council can't find where it's lacking. Sure, attendance at sporting events could be higher, but few schools have more fans than La Salle. Attendance at pep rallies could also be higher, but the truth is that they are poorly organized and lack spontaneity. Instead of these, each student's pride in La Salle demonstrates our school spirit. If asked, wouldn't you say you're proud that La Salle is your school? Dave Devine

NO 70.5 % For a school as good as La Salle, with sports teams which consistently win championships, there is surprisingly little school spirit. Attendance at sporting events is poor. This is the most obvious demonstration of the lack of school spirit. The support we give to our teams is not at the level they deserve. It's time for students to start showing some spirit by cheering on all of our teams. Ask yourself when you last went to a hockey game. I thought so. Brian Waerig

Unruly Typewriters and I

I M P E N D I N Q.

A junior in a senior fea· ture? Who is responsible for this screw-up?

For the senior class, this is the year that we handle deadlines, manual type· writers, and nasty looks from Mrs. Lo· gan. If you don't know what all this refers to, then ask any senior and he'll tell you. It is about college applications. At the beginning of the year, seniors attend college fairs where they look at prospective schools they would consid· er attending next fall. If it should hap· pen that the college representative of a school is a 22-year-old woman, then seniors strangely - and foolishly pick that school as a possibility they had overlooked. Besides attending col· lege fairs, the senior has to deal with

Achievement Tests. (Like fillingout the forms for the test was a real joy.) Some seniors, on the other hand, have already applied to some colleges through early decision. And for those lucky ones, some have already been accepted to their schools. Little do they know that they have added pressure to and caused jealousy among their fellow seniors who have yet to apply to a col· lege. Seniors start making their applica· tions for the upcoming deadlines, which are usually "upcoming" in two days. Then, on the night before they have to hand in applications to be processed, they do battle with white-out ribbon and type their personal essays which reveals how they are the greatest stu· dents and the most charismatic young men in the world. Then, upon handing

D E A D L I N E S in their applications, they get that fu1 ny look from Mrs. Logan who is stean ing over why they are all handing i applications on the same day. Upon being accepted to any colleg1 the average senior has a natural inc: nation to slack off for the rest of th year. This is commonly known c Brother Bob's senioritis. All applic, tions having been sent, the seniors fe, they "deserve" something. Oddi enough, most senior teachers feel th seniors "deserve" the remaining wor from their respective courses. "Yo mean we still have to take tests, rea books, do labs ... STUDY???!!!" Y~ we do; the "catch" is that some scho will actually accept us after receivir our applications.

I think that we, as a country and as a society, are on the track to improve life in the 1990's. As this new decade opens, we are engaged in a valiant, global fight against the scourge of drugs. In addition, we have renewed our commitment to the improvement of education in the United States. If we are successful in these two areas, I definitely believe that life will improve for both individuals and our society as a whole. Martin Feeny

In the past decade, we have been led to believe that our nation is now more prosperous and welloff than it has ever been. This may or may not be true, but the methods the government employed to achieve that prosperity were severely short-sighted. The U.S. lowered unemployment, taxes, and inflation by amassing a huge deficit. In the years to come, we will have to pay for that deficit and poor planning. The resulting recession will bring an end to our recent prosperity. Justin Oliver

Do you think life in the United States has improved in the last decade?

Pat McMonagle

YES 75.0% In the 1980's, vast improvements have been made toward the peace and prosperity of the U.S. Inflation and unemployment decreased, leaving the people of the U.S. in much better position financially at the decade's close. Also, we have come far in foreign relations between the U.S. and U.S.S.R.

Rich Mager

NO 25.0% Despite higher salaries and technological advancement, the benefits of the 80's were grossly overshadowed by the decade's shortcomings. Drug use grew worse, and "Greed is good" became the dogma of a generation. Hopefully, the values and priorities of the 1980's will never be so popular again.

As my search for colleges began, I realized how much importance is placed on the SAT by college admission offices. I have come to the conclusion that they merely want to subject finely-tuned minds to a grueling threehour intellectual marathon in hopes of turning millions of high school brains into tiny pools of putty. So, armed with fiery determination and seven hours of late-night cramming to remember what words like "ephemeral" mean, I stormed to the test center. Upon entering my designated test room, I pan-

icked: "Did I remember my admission ticket? How about my I.D. card? Or my #2 pencils? Or my SAT prep. book? Am I sure this is the right room? Will I have to take three verbal sections and two math or two verbal and three math?" All of these questions rushed through my mind in a jumbled fit of nervousness. I was promptly strapped into my chair and stripped of my confidence. "Promulgate", "soporific", and "somnolent" battered my sepulchral, rueful cranium. The one word I did know in the verbal section was, appro-

M priately, "procrastinate". Pusillan mously, I moved through the quand, ry. I thought it couldn't get any wors, until Joe Bloggs, a legend in the SA realm, seated next to me, starte laughing vitriolically at my torpor. RRRRRRING!! With difficulty, awoke to get ready for another day , school. I had been only another SA nightmare. I knew it wasn't real - tal ing the actual test is much more horr ble.

rising new bands. La Sallian concert-goers need not look farther than Philadelphia for what they want. Philadelphia's venues constitute a key stop on virtually every musical group's tour schedule.

Walking along the Schuylkill River or Kelly Drive, or just taking in the view of the skyline at night from the steps of the Art Museum are all inexpensive options after dinner at these four-star restaurants. As diverse as La Salle's student body is, the nearby metropolis of Philadelphia most definitely offers something for everyone - all the time.

The computer system is ancient and the science labs could use some new equipment. The library is comparatively poor due to its size, and the parking lot is always packed. By enlarging these and the athletic facilities, La Salle will remain a competitive college preparatory school for the next thirty years. Brian Gibson

Sure, La Salle must modernize to compete against other prep schools while maintaining a high standard of education. However, a new wing is the wrong approach. We should update what we already have, not spend much more in new construction. La Salle does not need a new art studio, nor does it need a colonnade. Furthermore, the cost of maintaining an expanded building will force tuition to increase faster than if the existing building was improved. Darek Sot

What do you think about the new wing? Much needed - a good idea Okay, as long as it doesn't raise tuition or enrollment Money could be better spent Completely unnecessary - a waste of money I do not care

On the way to school in the morning, before practice, or on the way home after school, seniors invariably stop at the 7-Eleven on Willow Grove Avenue for that quick snack that they can't do without. The word "convenience" in the word "convenience store" has become even more applicable in easing

V' the seniors' "pangs of hunger." The proximity of the 7-Eleven to La Salle is no mere accident. Rather, it was through the interest of Saint Edible, the patron saint of Junk Food, that the store lies approximately only threequarters of a mile from the driveway, which, the way teenagers drive, takes

no more than thirty seconds. The "Sev" provided those produc1 necessary for a well-balanced snad including the four major food groui;: - sugar, caffeine, artificial additive: and preservatives. If a senior did nc take in enough of these products, h became lethargic and probably su fered from "attention deficit syr drome." The unavailability of certai of these foods in the cafeteria (Bett does not sell Pringles or Orangina), du to limited variety of hours open, force seniors to search the aisles of th "Sev."

Is That A Tie ora T A B L E On a Thursday in late January, yearbook editors Rob Donahue and Brian McManus suddenly realized: "My God! We don't have enough to fill the senior section!" After coming up with some stupid ideas, such as "Adopt-a-Teacher" and "Disco Day," Brian and Rob thought of something so stupid that it had to go in the book (besides, it would be a great space filler): Brian suggested an "ugly tie" pictorial, and Rob expanded the idea to an ugly tie contest.

C L O T H?

After consulting fellow editor and village idiot Chris Matthews after school, the desperate warriors approached Moderator Mr. Geoffrey Nicoletti with the idea. Mr. Nick" Nicoletti's response was: "What are you guys trying to pull" (and we thought he had no sense of humor). The triumvirate left saying "Yeah, Yeah. Fine. Let's go put the announcement in the bulletin. After a quick check with Mr. Diehl, who gave his whole-hearted approval,

those crazy yearbook editors put th announcement in: "On Tuesday, Jam ary 30, there will be a yearbook spor sored Ugly Tie contest. All dress cod regulations still apply." So the yearbook held the contes1 The winners, picked by Brian, Roe Chris, and, for his total lack of tast, Paul, are shown across the page (Ned wear not by Pierre Cardin).

Do you think there is too much emphasis placed on getting into college? YES 52.9% From the beginning of freshman year to graduation, there is one word ever-

present on everyone's tongue: college. We are sent to La Salle to get a good preparation for it; we are told to play sports for it; we are instructed to get good grades for it. There seems to be one goal and that is to get into the "college of your choice." Cheating is but one obvious symptom of this over-emphasis of getting into college. What happened to school being for learning? Rob Fluehr

NO 47.1 % There is no question that getting into college is emphasized at La Salle. We have to remember that this is a college-prep school. This emphasis does not outweigh nor does it diminish our learning. Counselors and parents may prod students to look towards the future, but the teachers seldom speak of it and often avoid the subject completely. The teachers care too much about our education to allow college to overshadow it. In this way, learning and getting into college are balanced. George Motley

Senior year for many students can Je nerve-wracking: a pressure cooker :illed with tougher courses and teach2rs, SAT's, application deadlines, and 2xams. Each year though, La Salle stufonts emerge unscathed, looking 3head to college life, and to their careers. A number of high school seniors 1ave plans for their college "majors" 3nd eventually, their future profes,ions. The class of 1990 is no exception. The class of 1990 plans to enter unique and varied fields. Planned majors range from Meteorology to Media Technology, from Psychology to Marine Biology. The most popular choices are Business, Communications, and PreMed. A few students hope to use majors such as Biology, Psychology, and Nursing as stepping stones to medical school. Others envision careers in Government, Marketing, or Economics. Those seniors with an interest in Law often choose Political Science and

Criminal Justice, while many expert Physics students' intended fields of study include common majors such as Aerospace, Ocean, Electrical, or Nuclear Engineering. Rumor has it that senior Lemuel Pidloan was looking at Floral Arrangement as an option, but he dispelled such blasphemy, proclaiming, "I am merely deranged, not insane." This could explain his, as well as a number of others' interest in delving deep into people's minds through the social sciences, including Psychology, Psychobiology, and Clinical Psychology. Considering that the average college student changes his major three times, we can rest assured that the seniors will experiment with at least one of these majors. No list would be complete, however, without the single most popular choice of the high school senior, the fail-proof major, the usual choice on the SAT inquiry, number 999, "Undecided."

School, But Not S The most popular course of all time LaSallian history is STUDY HALL 101, better known as the "Free Peri)d. '' This course even surpasses LUNCH in the Guiness Book of Popuar Periods. Every student experiences 3TUDY HALL 101 at least once through his high school career, but ,ome are lucky enough to experience it 2very year. Due to its popularity, the Course Committee has had to limit its availability. Freshman are allowed to have

C

H

O

STUDY HALL 101 a maximum of 2x a cycle. The Committee feels Frosh cannot handle too many Free Periods in a short amount of time. Sophomores are given the right to a total of five Free Periods a cycle. Juniors are required to have at least one STUDY HALL 101 a cycle but can have up to three per cycle. Seniors can have as many as six Free Periods -in one day - and an infinite amount per cycle. What do students do on their STUDY HALL, you ask? Well, they

O

either stowaway to the 7-Eleven up Cheltenham Avenue or lose themselves in Fantasyland. They can do almost anything as long as its not in the Academic Wing of the school. That section is taboo for one on STUDY HALL 101, although seniors are restricted the least. Basically, STUDY HALL 101 is a time for people to forget that they are students and dream that they are zillionaires.

S E:N l

It's late April. It's eighth period. It's

57 degrees outside. You're in Mrs. Rinert's physics class. The fan doesn't 路each your side of the room. Four nonths from now you'll be a man - a ::allege Freshman. You look outside. { ou start to day dream. Then you beJin to write "Senior Week '90" on your 1otebook instead of the notes she is Jiving. You went from a "B" to a "D" n the class, but it really doesn't seem o bother you; colleges only see the 'B". This is second semester, senior ,ear. The term "senior year" is very miseading. See, the term really should be 'senior half-year." One of the advanages of being a senior is you only have me semester of school, and one of rest md relaxation, or so we think. Most :alleges applications are in before Febuary. Colleges see only your first senester grades, thus in turn, making the

SLIDE second semester grades null and void. The teachers, however, don't seem to know this. When you're a second semester senior, you take such luxuries as personal holidays, senior "cut" days, and, of course, a day off for the Dad Vail Reggatta. The number of Senior absences due to the common cold as well as other ailments, such as "senioritis" seem to increase as the year progresses. "Senioritis" is a disease. Although its cure is not apparent, its symptoms include: increased day dreaming, doodling "Senior Week '90", suffering a drop in grades, recalling the Animals' popular song "We got to get out of this place," more sick days (for it is a disease), and refering to teachers in ways other than before, but hey, we're only kidding, Mr. Diehl!

Are students given enough freedom at LaSalle?

Pete Muir

YES 68.9% There is simply no other school in the area that comes even close to giving its students as much freedom as the students at La Salle enjoy. Where most schools have confined study halls, we have free periods; where most schools have a formal classroom atmosphere, La Salle has relaxed discussions where anything goes.

Do you think democracy in Eastern Europe will last? Definitely Probably In some countries Not while the SoYiet Union remains socialist No

8.9% 33.5% 49.2% 2.6% 5.8%

The rate at which the changes in Eastern Europe have occurred will prove too fast for democracy to last. Despite the desire of the people of the Eastern Block for change, they will not be able to handle such a dramatic transformation in so short a period of time. Furthermore, it is unreasonable to assume that Communist leaders will continue to sit idly by as their governments disintegrate. The situation in Eastern Europe is just too unstable for fragile democracies to survive. Jason Zoto

The word has finally realized that communism is a failure. Since the student rebellion in China, one communist country has fallen after another. The peoples of these Eastern European nations are demanding freedom, and they are on their way to achieving it. It may have seemed too good to be true at first, but now it is becoming evident that democracy is here to stay. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, there is very little chance of ever returning to the communism of the past. Chris Schalleur

"For better of for worse," I thought, at the conclusion of the year. Were all the changes right and just, or shall I shed a tear? Some of them were necessities, others were just for show, But a few of them were crazy schemes that really ought to go. Our Football title leads the list for the best in '89. The list ends with the paint they chose, for the room in which we dine. The Mess I mean the dining hall gave us one good thing this year, the self-serve yogurt I'm proud to say, can be swirled to a 19th tier! The administration has changed some jobs, for the leadership at school.

You can hear the cries of the radicals: "Let the students rule." Two boneheads argued about the hole, that was dug out of the ground. "It's not a pool, you stupid fool." Dining Hall had a change in sound And then there were the machines we got, that dispense food after three. But one must moan, when he can't get a loan. to pay that 60 cent fee. The plans for the new wing are well underway - look at the model that's out. Some seniors are mad and sad however, "It will be too late for us!" they shout. But truthfully speaking, let's thank them all, the people who stayed "Home on the Range" for without their help, we could continue to get better, to develop, and to change.

The time period from which you ~ave your house in the morning until he first period bell rings is referred to s "before school time." Various activiies, some more productive than othrs, occupy this so-called "before chool time." First on the agenda came the trip to chool. For some the drive may have aken only five minutes, for others 1early forty-five minutes. Then there vere those students whose ride should iave taken forty-five minutes, but givm the right kind of car and an absence Jf police officers along the way took mly ten.

ports, staggered out of the car laughing hysterically from one of Howard's sick jokes. For those of you with an IQ higher than your shoe size you probably just listened to a tape - and probably not one from "The New Kids ... " Once you reached school you noticed a large number of people standing around the parking lot. Why did they gather there? Were they catching a smoke, enjoying the fresh morning air, or simply wasting time? The answer to these questions is "no." These students were trying to determine the number of Jeeps in the parking lot. After giving up on trying to get an accurate Jeep count because you realized too late that it would have been easier to count the non-Jeeps, you then head into the building. As you entered the academic wing, Brother Rob, always with a smile on his face, greeted you. You often wondered how he maintained that happy and carefree look on a day that you had five tests. As you passed the billboard you read the

"student of the month" happened to be. Once again you found yourself wondering if such a person actually existed and if so, how did he become it? How could someone actually fare so well academically in a school that has no law against having five tests in one day? Next event of the morning was homeroom. Many of you during homeroom sat back and contemplated the horrors you would have to endure while remembering that you were in the holy presence of God. Or, possibly, homeroom provided the time to start the homework that's due for the next seven classes. It was once said that what takes four hours to do at home can be done in twelve minutes of homeroom. "Before school time" means different things to different people. For some it meant achieving the land speed record on 309, catching the last smoke, counting Jeeps, or copying homework. You could have arrived in order to look over your notes and sharpen your pencils, then listen attentively to the day's bulletin, but so much excitement offered itself to you to occupy.
