St. Ignatius Loses 'Most Valuable Player'; Brian Dowling Plans Career in Business

b y Debbie \Vhitc

"Each player has to want to win if the team is going to win. This determination, together with a good coach, makes a winning team.''

This is the "key to success in high school sports'' as voiced by Brian Dowling, senior at St. Ig­natius High School.

AS Q UARTERBACK of the champion St. Ignatius Football Team, g uard and alternate play­maker of the firs t place basket­

person to receive this honor in two spor ts.

Bri:1n's interest in S))orts began when he attended St. Anne's grade School, where U1crc was a large intramural sports program.

With his entrance into St. Tgna­tius, Brian, besides being active in football and basketball, joined the baseball and tennis team3,

Why not take the chance to stop, play and relax? "Come alive! You're in the ping pong genera­tion."

"From a physical and emotional aspect, golf has a lot to offer." These words from Dr. David Bell keynoted his talk to the golf team May 18.

Dr. Bell, one of Cleveland 's foremost orthopedic surgeons and a professional golfer, was one of several speakers who have ad­dressed the newly-formed team within the past two months.

S PEAK.ING OF the medical value of golf, Or. Bell stressed the importance or good health. The doctor Informed the team that anything which keeps a person 1physically active contributes to good health .

He stated that golf, especially, is worthwhile because a person can play it a ll h is Hfe--even peo­p le with physical handicaps .

Dr. Bell a lso emphasized the importance or a team sport In high school. "High school sport teams provide an excellent opportunity Lo lcnrn sportsmanshiJ>- how to play a game. and to win or lose gracefully."

In an advisory capacity, Dr. Bell also supervised a practice session o l strokes, swings and putts, giv­ing Magnificat's first golf team professional tips on a variety o f plays.

Magnifi::al is the o nly Catholic girls' school in the diocese to have a golf team. Several tournaments arc now being p lanned for early fall , when members will be ac­cepted from all classes.

His opinion is that H an All­Catholic L en ~ u e s h o uld be formed, "competition between re­ligions'' would result.

BECAUSE OF his sports rec­ord, Sri.in has been invited to at­tend many difrer cnt colleges. His choice is the Ivy-League Yale, where he plans to major in busi­ness administration.

IC a good o pportunity to play professional footba ll arises, Brian admits he probably would accept it. But right now he thinks it is more important to prepare for a career in business. His reason: " You can 't play football all your life."

As the 1 o n g w a i t for graduation shor tens to a few hours, the time arrives to say a few words of fare­

well to those departing from these "hallowed halls." Farewell, first to the J olly Green Giant, that magnif­

icent mascot who always led the seniors to victory despite attempts at assassination by a certain white knight and an eccentric group of music men in purple hats. He conquered all (or almost all) who challenged him, and though we will miss him, we salu te him on his way.

Farewell, also, to the song of the Class of '65. There can be little doubt that it really did help "make green and white top the rest." It cheered them when they were down and excited them to victory. We express our sincere gratitude for that hearty parody.

Sad farewell to the light-hearted spirit of the Class of '65. Whether in the spunky "Lit tle Rascals" or in determined athletic competition, that "certain something" always came through.

And finally, to the Class of '65, we bid a fond farewell. As they march toward commencement tonight, we hope they remember that we will miss them, and we wish them good luck in all they do.

Plat,, (!)~cdlde; <'/od, Ree11eate The r u g g e d norms of summer "par tying" can be more enjoyable when interspersed with unusual activit ies provided by your hometown.

Pleasurable afternoons might be spent picnicking at one of the parks in the area.

Night t ime activity is always a pleasure if tuned to the Pop Concerts of the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra or Shakespeare's master dramas, which take to the stage nightly at Lakewood Civic Auditorium.

A more spirited leisure hour might be spent in an "old­fashioned" neighborhood baseball game or in a set of doubles on the tennis courts.

Notice: Dr. Seuss

'On Beyond Zebra' Sparks Imagination by Jane B riggs

Attention, those who thirst for knowledge. Herc is your chance to quench your thirst.

The "water founta in'' is a book called On Beyond Zebra by the ce lebrated author Dr . Seuss.

THE l\lOST DIFFIC uLT thi ng for an adult lo d iscover in this book is its purpose. Childr en, how­ever, have no difficulty because they rea lize that his goal is to activate unimaginative m inds by creating an " alphabet' ' of the let­ter s past Z .

The story opens with innocent little Donald O'Dell, a good y­goody who things he 's the "bee's knees" just because he knows the alphabet. Conrad Corne lius, an im­aginative know-it-all who needs a haircut, decides to s how his gen­ius to Goody-goody O'Dell.

After rebuking Gc ody- goody for his naivete, K now- it- a ll takes him and a strange looking clog with rabbit's ears and a horse's tail to the kingdom of Katroo (which he has d iscovered ) to see a g roup of rather odd-looki ng crea tures.

ONE OF THEM, a Yuzz-a -ma-

Tuzz, seems to be (it's rather hard to describe) haystacks piled one on top of another. Its head is com­posed of a droopi ng mustache, a pink button nose, two big eyes and hair lha t would make any Bea tie feel inferior .

Ano!her creature is a Wumbus, a d.1rling pink whale "who live:; 011 a hill, and never comes down till it's time to re fill."

The rcad£r can ' t forget the Um ­bus, a r edheaded cow who would as tound the world of biology, An­other "shocker" is the Sneedlc , a type of mosquito wh ich has to be hunted on an eleph ant with a stale, ke rosene- soaked navy bean.

THERE IS a va r iety of other species in Dr. Seuss' book, a ny of which would po, c a threa t in a dark a Ucy, or any place else, for that matter .

In this book, among others, are a Humpf - Humpf - a - Dumpfcr, a sort of swamp creature; MiS3 Fuddle-dee -Duddle, a bird that adores trains other than the choo­choo kind; a Glikker who juggles cinnamon seeds and a Flunncl who adores O'Grunth music (for the "unintellectual," a type of hunting horn.)

Cheating:LatestCampusStatusSymbol by Debbie White _

Recently, cheating at the Air Force Academy and the breaking of the Honor Code there made fron t page head lines. On college campuses chea ting is ra pidly be­coming a n ew status symbol, turn­ing the tide of adult opinion against youth.

T here are as many definitions of cheating as there a rc people who cheat. Is it cheating on ly wh€n copying from someone on a lest? Is it cheating to copy h ome­work? or five point q uizzes?

TO CHEAT, as Webster define; i t, is "to deceive by trickery, to fool, beguile." The clerinition does not limit itself to examinations. IL simply sla tes that any d ece ption by trickery is cheating.

Some parents of college s tu­dents, a fter d iscovt rlng that their child has been cheating, contend that it Is the pressure of college that leads young 1wople to dis­honesty ,

Isn't it true that rcal stu:!ying (not cramming) results in a gras p of the material, and that, in this case, there s hould be no need to cheat?

If a person still finds himself cheating, if h e cannot accept the pr essure that comes with college, then he cloes n 't belong ther e.

IF IT ISN 'T the pressured, there fore , who d o mos t of the cheating on college campuses to­day, then it m ust be the ones who do not care enough to be pres­sured ; the ones who re fuse the cha llenge to "get involved.' '

B y re fusing to acce1>t the work which college brings, they s ink into a gentle lcUmrgy. And, rather than face the shock of challeng­ing college courses , they resort to deceit.

If n pe rson cannot be honest with himself, is ther e much hop. for him'/ If his biggest thri ll is to be clever enough lo com e up with ans wers before the bell r ings, or to bea t the eyes of the teacher walk ing up and clown the a isle, then t hat ,per.;on must lead 11

Students Voice Opinions of Reading lists by l\largie Grcgorlc live. It g ives u; an opportuni ty

They say that college tests nrc so d ifficult that even if five or six hou r3 nrc spent study ing for them, the tes ts still remain too challenging for lhe ordi na ry s tu­dent. The result: cheating.

BUT WHEN talking about pr es­sure, we musl dist:ngui, h be­tween the pr essure of "cram­ming," and the ord inary pressure tha t comes wit h homework and nightly study.

IT IS TRUE that per haps the re are on ly a minority o r college s tu­dents who cheat, but even in a mi nority a big problem ex ists. The ans wer must lie in the minor ity who created the problem. A s summer a ppr on c h c 6 , lo read Lhc good books w hich we
