Headmaster Comments on Educational Change Usually in this space a well deserved thank you is extend to the Annual staff and faculty sponsor for a job well done. This is certainly in order for those who are responsible for this book. We are indeed grateful to each member of the staff and to the faculty sponsor , Mrs . Kemp , In addition, I should like to say a word about educational change. During my many years in the field of education there has never been a time when the need fo r 'change ' has been more imperative.

We are at a time when the ways ofteaching , the structure of the school , the daily schedule , the grading system , in fact the very goals of education are being held up for critical inspection. Educators like Silberman, Holt, Bruner and others are nothing short of scathing in their criticism of our schools. Creativity, individuality , and curiosity , basic factors in the motivation of continuous learning , they assert , are being stifled in most of our schools.

New educational developments under such headings as: the integrated day , the open classroom , the learning package, beh.:.vorial objectives and flexible modular scheduling, aimed at fostering personal responsibility and individual growth, are the order of the day.

Education appears to be taking a new leap in to the future. Much of what is being espoused , to be sure , is theoretical and unproven , , but out of this experimentation will come something better. None of us, including St . Martin's , can be content to rest on our laurels.

Leaders of the St. Martin's

Family The Mother's and Dad's Clubs at St. Martin's generouslyhelp the school through their work in varied activities. Besides allowing the parents to get to know each other, these clubs donate time and money to the school. This year both clubs helped run the new concession stand at the football field, and various members came to every home basketball game to help run the indoor concession stand. The Dad's Club not only helped pay for the new concession stand and equipment room on the field, but also did much of the manual work themselves. The Mother's Club furnished flowers for the altar every week, redecorated the coaches' office, and bought trees for the new patio.

To the Mother's and Dad's Club who magnanimously endeavor to make St. Martin's better by giving their time, money, energy, and initiative to help St. Martin's provide its students with the best possible education, a very special "Thank you" is extended.

MOTHER'S CLUB OFFICERS: Mrs. Kimble, President; Mrs. Gordon, Vice-President; Mrs. Bryant, Secretary; Mrs. Fink, Treasurer.

DAD'S CLUB OFFICERS: Mr. Stephens, President, Mr. Fink, VicePresident; Mr. Conatser, Secretary; Mr. Laudeman, Treasurer.

Cafeteria help gives servi~e with a smile.

Special Thanks to Cafeteria and Maintenance Staffs St. Martin's owesagreat deal of appreciation to those men and worn en who work on the cafeteria and maintenance staffs. Those individuals who daily provide meals for students do their best in serving the school. The cafeteria staff functions to provide lunches for students and faculty. A school must be physically organized, well- kept, and improved constantly. Those who work on the maintenance staff of St, Martin's are always willing to help students and teachers in any way that they can. Without the conscientious efforts and patient assistance of the maintenance and cafeteria staffs, St. Martin's could not operate as smoothly as it does today.

Equi pment is repaired.

Busses are kept in good condition.

It also organizes social activities and special events, and promotes school spirit, Included in Student Council activities this year was the promotion of the orientation program for new students, the kazoo band, and the car wash.

Among other endeavors were the opening of meetings to the public, as well as securing permission to sit in faculty meetings.

Saints Beaten in Playoffs The University High Cubs of Baton Rouge capitalized on five major plays to overwhelm the St. Martin Saints 42-14 in a Class A bi-district playoff game.

The game was locked at 14-14 at halftime and appeared to be anyone ' s game but the Saint's defense fell victim to a superior Cub offense.

Bill Ball set up the first Saint score on a 47-yard punt return to the Cub 16-yard line. Following a thirteen yard pass from Richie Rusch to Chip Garrard, Ball scored on a 3-yard plunge. The second Saint score was set up when Chip Garrard pounced on a fumbled punt on the 6 yard line. Ball blasted through for 2 yards and a touchdown to make the score 14-12.

The Sain.ts tied the score on a 2 point fake- kick conversion from Monty Burlingame to Garrard. But this was the last scoring the Saints would see.

University went ahead in the third quarter on long scoring plays, never able to sustain a real drive against the stubborn Saint defense.

A blocked punt resulted when the Saint punting team was minus one player, making the score 35-14.

Outstanding Saint defenders were Chris Von Gohren, John Shober, and and Foster and Kelly Duncan. Ball led all Saint rushers with 105 yards .

Working harder than any team be fore, tnis team wanted to be the best; when pre - season practice was over they were ready to be the best.

Sweeping through seven straight op ponents these peop le showed a powerful offense and a stingy defense.

As a team they scored 239 points and gave up onl y 26 .

These people are to be congratulated for their spirit, desire, pride , and sportsmanship on and off the field . Also, this year's freshmen showed class unity never before equa led at St . Martin 's.

Varsity Posts Successful· Season

The 1971-72 "Saints" basketball record to date is 18 wins and 6 losses,

Among the accomplishments of

this year's team was winning the Championship of The Cadet Classic tournament and placing Denis Barry on the all-tournament team.

Steve Pottharst was selected the MVP of that tournament. The Saints also placed

second in the Riverside League Tournament, losing to a tough AAA St , Bernard team in the finals.

Pottharst made the all-Riverside team.

Steve

We also placed second in the first round of district 5A competition.

A state play off berth is still a possibility, as we have five more district games in this second round to play.

It is still early to make a final statement but the season up to now has been very successful with the exception of th e 3 point loss to N. 0. A. in the district play off game,

Saints Dominate District 5-A J.V.

The Junior Varsity Basketball Team had an outstanding record the the 1971 - 1972 season. The team was made up of six sophomores and seven freshman . Charles Alfaro , 6'4 1/2", dominated district 5-A junior basketball in scoring and rebounding and the ball handling of Alan Schimek helped lead the Saints to the district championship.

Two freshman were not to be denied a starting position as Ken Larkin and Robert Gonza les showed everyone they were excellent players. Brian Ball and John Mc Key showed their ability and gave that lOOo/o, which was a characteristic of the entire team. The steady improvement during the season was the result of team work, self-pride and determination of every player.

A total of twenty-five victories and an undefeated district championship truly made an outstanding year

for the young Saints.

1971-1972 8TH GRADE BASKETBALL TEAM

8th Grade Cagers Concentrate on Defense After much hard work and a not too successful early season, the eighth grade basketball team came a long way. We made more mistakes than most teams should; therefore, we had to play harder. The emphasis was on defense and only man for man. A lack of a strong bench also contributed to the prob lems. These young men were dedicated to having a winning season, and this they accomplished. This team concentrated on playing defense to win games. One had to hustle, not commit fouls, but be aggresive, What we lacked in height for rebounding, we looked for position and passed the ball out quickly. These boys worked hard for every point and for each victory; their season was successful for this reason.

7th Grade Has Fantastic Season

Bria n Rourke jumps center for Saints.

The 1971-1972 seventh grade basketball team ' s mid - February record was 16 wins and 2 losses.

Losses were to Newman and Sam Barthe. Revenge for the early sea son loss to the Greenies was achieved in a subsequent 14 point win. The team can be characteri zed as aggressive, eager and having much natural ability.

Members of the team were Shawn Sistrunk, Brian Rourke, Richard Decamp, Jim Cook, Gary Oelsner, Kent Klein, Bill Mathes, Mark Dodart, Kevin Wyrick, Andre Touzet, Park Ellis, and Bert Wilson.

The attitude and ability of this group should contribute much to the future basketball program at St. Martin 's.

Wrestling Team Faces Stiff Quad-A Competition The St. Martin's Wrestling team, coached by Don Schwartz, has not gotten off to a very good start this year. The main reason for this is lack of manpower. The team started out with about twenty boys, but because of complications, will end the season with about ten boys, filling only six out of thirteen weight classes. This is a great disadvan tage because we wrestle against quad- A schools with second and third strings. Even though we lack a large team, we are hoping to place well in city and state in late February.

The Cross Country team this year was successful in spite of technical problems that plagued its entrance in State . Football and inj uries forced the team as a whole to start late in its training. The first meet entered was the Southeastern Cross Country Meet in Zemurra y Park. DavidRuschdid very well; Bill Welsh and Sandy Ward also ran. In the State meet, technicalities prevented Timmy Brown and John Benton from running . David Rusch placed 5th and Sandy Ward took 8th place. Bill Welsh also came in for a good position.

Vincent Morgan, Blair Johnson, and Murray Huber also ran in the State meet. Even with many obstacles . preventing the Cross Countr y team from really excelling, it was a tightly-knit unit which proved itself in every way possib le .
