Seton's Guides Behind the Scene

Seton High School is fortunate in having the strong support of its diocesan leaders. In August, when Father Hillmann was suddenly incapacitated by a heart attack, both Bishop McCarthy and Msgr. McCarren stepped into help.

Orders for coolers were placed, workmen contacted; materials arrived. Ughting fixtures were installed in classrooms; new desks were shipped; drapes were hung - as if by magic.

Operating behind the scene to accomplish these improvements were Bishop McCarthy and Msgr McCarren Seton is grateful for the p ersonal care they have shown this smallest of high schools

Coach Mulvey seems to be weighing the issues quite seriously.

The spirited, working attitudes of this year's faculty boosted the morale of the entire school. The mounds of hard work they contributed added to making us a success.

We are all grateful to Father Bottler for the service he gave during Fr. Hillmann's illness. We are also indebted to our dedicated part-time faculty.

Social Studies Involve Every Level of School

Independent study in Newsweek magazine seems to be what the Seniors in roD prefer to lecturing. Below: Darrell Walker, Jim Pfeiffer, Joe Gorleski, and Steve Haler find the latest issue very interesting. The Juniors in American History also have a perference over the lecture; group discussions. What is so spellbinding about Rick Maurer's comments? At left, is the typical Dean Batt, shirt sleeves rolled up, involved in a happening; education.

English Seen From All Angles

Sister Rebecca and Mrs. Gibbons plan their curriculum in English for the year in the new English resource center.

"1 know Sister said I'd find Bloody Mary on this shelf, " thinks Joe Presseller as he begins work in the library on a research theme.

Who wouldn't be interested in finding concrete detail for a descriptive theme, if he could sit in the shade of a palm tree during class as these juniors are.

Huckleberry Finn really holds the attention of this junior group during a discussion of the book.

During the spring months the library becomes a popular spot for seniors as they begin preparing a bibliography and taking notes for their research theme.

Barbara Martin and Cathy Soto gain added familiarity with library resources as they work as library assistants, covering books, filing catalogue cards.

Miss Maddox directs rehearsal for one of the plays presented by students in her speech and drama class.

Food Preparation, Serving, Part of Homemaking Course

Meal planning, nutrition, fabncs, color, design: these are only a few subjects covered in the Home-Economics course.

This meal starts with everyone busy in the kitchen: What's cooking, girls?

Next we prepare the table: Kathy Chilson and Mrs. Brown have that project underway.

Everything is ready: Margaret Ford, bring on the main course. (Right) Finally, LIZ Secord, Ann Canavan, and Mary Cordiero are ready to sample today's Home Ec project. (Lower Left)

World of Science Holds Discoveries

Movement of waves, distillation, formation of crystals are only a few of the experiments performed by Seton's scientists.

Below the physics class works on experiment in movement IPS students record observations of their project . Chemists Dan Ryan and Tom Brady collect water they've distilled, as Vicky Golightly looks on.

Math Analysis Involves Games, Graphs

Games aren 1t only sports anymore. Sister Paul Marie has installed a series of games in her math teaching techniques.

Art Clas ses Exp e rimen t in Varie d M e di a

With the addition of new desks to the art department, students began this year to experiment in many media under the guidance of Mrs. Nancy Taylor. Work in oils, scratch board, charcoal cartoons 1 sculpturing in clay 1 plaster 1 and papier mache ', as well as weaving-these were among the media in which students chose to experiment.

Music Department Presents Concert of Mixed Voices

The music department under the direction of Miss Judy Maddox, expanded its work this year to include tenor and bass voices. As an outgrowth of class work, the chorus presented AMAHL AND THE NIGHT VISITORS at Christmas.

During the second semester the class prepared for a spring concert. In addition to four part singing, the group accompanied each selection with multimedia illustrations.

Freshman Moods Vary With Time of Day

In contrast to the attentive posture as l'v1r. Novy illustrates a health class with stick figure drawings 1 is the happy relaxed atmosphere of the freshmen as they wait on the bus for the ride home. Raul Montano punches tickets.

The freshman class ranked highest on the Chocolate Drive this year and earned a free day on February 18. They held a successful Valentine Dance on February 12 at which Dan Ryan and Mary Helen Soto were crowned King and Queen of Hearts.

Sentinels Fight Apache Prospectors

He's down •..

But never to sta y I

With only one victory out of the first nine games 1 the record wasn't encouraging. The last game was with Orme and the Sentinels had one last chance to make good. Spirits were high and more than anything the players wanted to "stick it to" someone else for a change. Scoring came quickly. Following a perfect block by E. Parker and J. Presseller, E. Morales walked in literally untouched from 3 yards out. A short time later Keith Barone plunged in from the 6. Both]. Schmelzle and S. Haler broke open in the end-zone to receive passes from C. Mendez.

The Week Before Friday's Game

Art Buelna snags a pass in a practice session before being tackled by Elmer Parker.

Carlos Mendez pitches the ball out to John Mendoza after being caught by a defensive player.

practice, some of the players relax in the cool shade.

Team calisthenics start each day with a smile, a groan, and a few choice words on the side. This is followed by a game conditioning scrimmage in which Carlos Mendez beats the pressure of the defensive charge as he goes to the air.

"Sure is hot on these August days, " says Keith Barone as he slowly recovers from the first few weeks of practice.

'The Way You Practice Is the Way You Play'

Sprints, scrimmage , practicing plays, all are a part of the football scene. Practice is by no means a picnic.

All the work leads up to the action in games such as that pictured below in a contest with Apache Junction.

The sophomores this year may have been on the small side, but that didn't stop them from being athletic. Even their class was small, but it seems there was a sophomore hand in all the Setonian events. Specifically, their combined efforts in the Christmas dance showed their many capabilities. That kind of concern can only add to class morale.

How Do Cheerleaders Sit Still So Long?

Varsity Junior Varsity

Cheer-lead-er : a person who directs organized cheering especially at a sports event But Webster does not quite have the full definition of a Sentinel cheerleader. Setons cheerers are people who will go on cheering, though perhaps reluctantly, even when there is no crowd response or their team is losing drastically. Cheerleaders do not have super powers but they are specia l people!
