brother john hickey, cfx

Whether he is introduced as a member of the faculty basketball squad or to honor him for twenty-five years of service as a Xaverian Brother, the reaction here at Good Counsel is the same: a standing ovation for Brother John Hickey. For many years, Brother has been exploring with "the youngsters" of G C the many facets of social studies: Area Studies, World History, U.S. History, Government. On our many field days, one can always find Brother with a band of students heading down to the Nation's Capitol to avail themselves of the many local educational resources. Already legendary are the many anecdotes of Brother's formative years on the streets of New York and the stories are told with that extra touch of local color, the New York accent. Many times Brother John has demonstrated the best "schoolyard strategy" in games versus the students. As a history teacher and as athletic director, Brother John serves as an outstanding example of dedication to those he serves. G C would never be the same without him. He has served us well and, as he continues to do so, we wish him many years as an educator and as a religious in the Xaverian Brothers. It is with a deep sense of gratitude for what he does for us that we dedicate this 1975 FALCO N to Brother John, a teacher, a brother and a loyal friend.

Combining a healthy fear with genuine respect, the students of Good Counsel High School have always held Brother Anthony Stromberg in high regard. One of the few native Marylanders among the Brothers here at GC, Brother Anthony has held many positions at Xaverian schools and he has filled them all quite well. From his days at Xaverian High School in Brooklyn as moderator of the Parent's Council to his present post as Director of Studies, he has continually and consistently earned the respect and admiration of all with whom and for whom he has worked. This year Brother celebrated twenty-five years of dedication and service as a Xaverian Brother. At Good Counsel that dedication has taken many forms: Director of Students, Math Department Chairman, Director of Studies, teacher, loyal fan, good listener, and helpful counselor. We join Brother Anthony's many friends and his family in wishing many more years of joyfully contributing to Christian education, and it is with pride that we choose to dedicate this 1975 FALCO N to a man who lives to the fullest meaning of the word "teacher."

Anyone who now attends or has attended Good Counsel comes away changed in some way. For better or for worse, these changes are the product of education. They are the direct result of experiences—social, academic, or spiritual—encountered during this time. Attending Good Counsel is more than the normal high school experience. The school's uniqueness in both people and problems makes the school different from other institutions in the area. The following is not a history of the school, a record of facts, dates, clubs, cliques, individuals and events. Rather, it is an attempt to describe the experiences that each student encounters during his four years here in the way of school and school-sponsored activities both yesterday and today. Ever since the first class was graduated in 1962, certain things have remained the same. Freshmen are still targets of verbal and sometimes physical abuse. The back parking lot remains a race track. The beams holding up the gym roof still weigh thirty-five tons. Other things have changed over the years. This is an attempt to describe some of them. Social Life and Entertainment

Probably the most frequently asked question throughout the teen years is about what everyone else is doing on the weekends. The typical Joe Falcon can be found doing any number of things, both exotic and commonplace. Ever since the first dance was held here at Good Counsel, the school has been active in providing entertainment for the student body. Throughout the late '50's and early '60's, record hops were held very frequently and were quite popular with most students. After the dance, a favorite hangout was the Wheaton Hot Shoppes. Frequently, a "Queen of the Hop" was chosen from entries received by girl "students of good standing". A popular dance was the twist. As a matter of fact, a poll taken among the students in 1962 revealed that the twist was the most popular step of the era. They were repulsed at the fact that it was banned at certain Catholic school dances but voiced the opinion that "twisters" should be supervised by adults because of the "sexual" nature of the dance. Joe Falcon (1962 version) revealed his tastes as far as clothes go in an article published in the CO U N SELO R. Black loafers were numero uno in the shoe department. White shirts and skinny, stringbean ties were the preferred threads for the upper body. A 1964 poll reflected the students' attitude towards music. The Beach Boys were the number one group, with honorable mentions going to the Beatles and Rolling Stones. One year later, another poll appeared, this one dealing with the largest problems that Joe Falcon faced: those dealing with wine and those dealing with women. Students complained of the hassles of dating but said that these were outweighed by the positive factors involved. Marijuana was seldom if ever used, "pot" being something you cooked in and "stoned" a form of martyrdom.

From 1964 to 1966, a series of "hootenanys" was held at school. These mammoth affairs consistently drew huge crowds to the gym during the two years in which they were held. A cross between a sing-along, dance and concert, the shows featured as many as six groups performing on a given night. The hootenany soon lost its popularity as did the previously popular record hop. "This kind of entertainment," said one SA C official "seems to have passed its crest and Rock-and-Roll or its modern equivalent has come into its own again." Its successor was a gizmo known as the "Soul Show." Crowds of over 1,000 teenagers regularly packed the gym to hear popular area soul groups. Disc Jockeys such as the now-famous Barry Richards hosted the events. In 1970, the rock concert appeared on the scene. These events drew equally large crowds of frenzied fans and mammoth profits for the SA C treasury. One such event drew over 2,000 people with many being turned away at the gate. The "M ini-Woodstocks" featured a couple of top-rated area hard rock bands on one bill. With rock concerts becoming increasingly infrequent, dances have once again become the major school-sponsored social events. Live bands have replaced records. Recent events have been plagued by the behavior of a few participants at various stages of rowdiness, but the school dance remains a popular way of educating the social man.

academics One of the most unique features of Good Counsel is the socalled "Modular System". This flexible scheduling system provides the students with free (unstructured) time during the school day to be used doing homework, projects, visiting or studying in the resource rooms, and catching a smoke on the back parking lot. It is designed to instill in the student a sense of organization, which hopefully will result in beneficial use of his time. The key to the modular philosophy lies in the student's schedule. It can be found in various places around the school. Whether taped on the inside of a locker door, clasped in the trembling hands of a freshman or neatly wadded in the trash can, the schedule is, like any dog, the student's best friend. This marvel of computer science give the student the who, what and where of every course that he is taking. If he is having trouble in a course, he can use one of those empty blocks on his schedule to drop by that subject's resource room for help and consolation. Ah yes, the resource rooms! Who will ever forget them? Each seemed to have its own unique character. Remember the Social Studies Room with it's cozy lived-in look? The Math Resource Room had an air of efficiency about it that belied the muddled minds of the students who hunched over its tables. The joys of the language room cannot be overstated; there students discover the thrill of language and played airport with the headphones. Outside the chem lab, the hall was regularly filled with the scintillating scent of burning sulfur (and occasionally flesh) and other goodies as students rushed to complete their assigned labs.

The scheduling system has led to a greater number of courses offered to interested students. Electives range from advanced placement courses to typing. Still, there are a certain number of required courses in language and math (Algebra II—Trig—number 432 on your course sheets, number 1 in your hearts). Religion courses offer some new ways of thinking along with some of the old cliches. English is a constant companion for the four-year duration, setting out in quest of the end of illiteracy. Advanced Code Breaking I, an independent study course in which you learned to decipher your schedule, was suggested by some students. Unstructured time broke up the daily ritual and was used wisely by most students. Many singled out a place they could call their own and used it to learn either from books or from other people. Periodically, there were purges of the library, but these did not discourage students in their unquenchable thirst for a place to sit and work and/or talk or recover from an all-nighter before a big test. A combination of many ideas, approaches and outlooks, Good Counsel retains a unique quality that makes it different and most believe better-than the average area school. To some it is a learning experience, to some a "prison", but all of us know that our"mod, mod world" is alive and growing better everyday.

good counsel now

Though many aspects of Good Counsel have changed—modular scheduling, the relaxed academic atmosphere, the new look of carpeted floors and multi-colored walls—the goal of educating young men remains the same. The education received by the students is not a product or a service, but rather it is an active dynamic process which requires participation and involvement on the part of the students and faculty alike. This year's academic program, as in years past, was designed to enhance the student's participation and involvement and to place increased responsiblility on his sharing in the educational process. Having taken a look at the past, the Falcon Staff invites you to look and read further into the book, and, perhaps, in a few years, pick it up once again and recall the memories that it records today.

falcon football 1974 H

Right: Coach Tom Kolar exults after a Falcon score. Below: "Teddy Bear' Hilton and Dave Higgins celebrate.

When a high school football team has only two or three starters returning from a squad that failed to win a game the previous Fall, its prospects fot the com ing season are bleak, at best. During the hot, barren days of summer practice, head coach Andy Guida was pre-occupied with the most demanding rebuilding job of his long tenure at Good Counsel. The turnout was the sparsest in years, and adding to the lack of experience was a relative absence of size and speed. Hopes were raised momentarily when a 30-yard run by reserve halfback Rolando King propelled the Falcons to victory over DuVal in their opening scrimmage. The subsequent pre-season loss to Peary, however, put a damper on the aspirations of the team. The Huskies took advantage of crucial lapses in the G.C. defense to-score twice while the Falcon offense was bogged down in its own territory for most of the contest. The first three games of the season seemed to reinforce the opinion of the skeptics. O n September 1, the team travelled to Garfield, Virginia and were .victims of the worst massacre in that state since Bull Run, 34-0. A clash with Calvert Hall, a top Baltimore team> was next, two Saturdays later. The Cardinals took the opening kjckoff and embarked on a time-consuming touchdown drive. Then, the first signs of the determination and resilient spirit that was the team's trademark all season long became evident,, Steve Stanislav tossed a 35-yard T D pass to Jim Davis for the varsity's first tally of the season'. Stanislav later found Bill Keyes in the end zone for another six-pointer, but the Cards eeked out a narrow victory, 15-14, when Greg Czajkowski's attempted punt was blocked and rolled out of the end zone for a safety. Rejuvenated, the Falcons returned to their hom e turf for the league opener against DeMatha. Fullback Steve Orsini scored on a short run after a Stag fumble to.give Good Counsel an early lead,_and, once again, Falcon fans dared to hope that the end of the long drought was at hand. But in the second half, a series of costly mistakes led to three decisive DeMatha touchdowns. G C bowed for the third time, 28-12. Spirits were at an all-time low when the varsity travelled to Wilmington, Delaware the following week to meet that city's top-ranked team, SalesiahUrh. The Falcons had com piled a winless streak of 13 games stretc hing over two seasons, and student interest, buoyed after the unexpectedly close game with Calvert Hall, had fallen to a minimal leyel. But iif the fans had given up, someone had forgotten to tell the players. With emotions ait a fever pitch, they.charged jnto Baynard Stadium, the 5,000-seat home of the Sallies, and shocked one of the East C oast's perennial powjers, 2i3r7.vlt was the first time.that Salesaniurp had tumbled to defeat at home in over four years. (They were to lose only one more game over the rest of the season.)

The Salesanium game renewed the team's confidence, and the student body, coming to the sudden realization that their football team was, after all, capable of winning, rallied to their support. They were there in force as the Falcons toppled Gonzaga 20-8 on October 12 with Orsini and Tino Monaldo mounting a devastating ground attack that accounted for over 150 yards rushing. They were there in even greater numbers to witness Good Counsel defeat archrival Carroll, 21-15, for the first time since 1966. A 71-yard touchdown jaunt of senior quarterback Chris Brown was the telling blow for the Lions, as the Falcons came to grips with the discovery that, for the first time in years, they were in the thick of the race for the W M A C crown. G C succumbed to Georgetown Prep on O ctober 26, 2-0, but the loss was an understandable letdown after the emotional win over Carroll. Both teams were sluggish throughout the contest, and the only score came when a punt bounced off the hands of a Prep lineman and over the end line for a safety. Brown connected with split end Davis six times on Novem ber 2, the last of which was a two-yard strike for touchdown and victory over O 'C o n n ell 19-16. Davis was named the W ashington Post's Player-of-the-Week for his efforts against the Knights. Since its inception in 1969, the G ood Counsel—St. John's series has been among the most bitterly-contested rivalries in the area. But on Novem ber 9, much more was at stake than the resolution of long-standing animosities between the two schools: the teams took the field before thousands of followers at Carroll knowing that the winner would earn a berth in the City Cham pionship game at R.F.K. Stadium. The Cadets asserted control smartly in the beginning, with their All-Met halfback, Alvin Perkins, dashing for 70 yards and a 6-0 St. John's lead. Then, as they had done so many times over the course of the season, the Falcons struck back, with Orsini diving over from the one to send his team into the locker-room with a slim 7-6 advantage at halftime. An injury to Cadet quarterback Bill Meile had hampered the St. John's passing game and G ood Counsel seemed to have the upper hand in the early stages of the third quarter. Then, unexpectedly, the tide shifted. For the third time in as many crucial games, a breakdown in the Falcon punting team resulted in disaster. A "Johnny" fell on a fumbled exchange inside the Good Counsel 20-yard line and within a few minutes, St. John'Sehad capitalized on the opportunity. Another long run by Perkins put the game out of reach and the Falcons walked off the field dejected, and 21-15 losers. In the season finale against M cNam ara, the team laid to rest any doubt about the authenticity of their earlier victories. Although they barely beat the Mustangs, 14-13, G C held the defending league champs to 134 yards total offense. Defensive back Joe Burke insured the fifth w in of the season (and third in the W M A C) with a hardcharging tackle of M cNamara's Tom Burgess, who was attempting a two-point conversion after a fake kick. The football Falcons of 1974 overcame the most overwhelming of odds in a way that has com e to distinguish Good Counsel gridiron teams during the past decade. In that period, only one team (the infamous 1973 squad) has compiled a losing record. Although the hard-fought triumphs of last fall were a team effort, several outstanding individuals merited the special consideration of the Washington area newspapers. Jimmy Davis was nan\ed to the Star-Ntews' All-Metropolitan and All-Prep teams. Steve Gerondakis, Steve Hilton, and Joe Shea were cited by the Star-News or Post (or both) as A ll-W M A C choices. With several experienced players returning for next year's cam paign, Coach Guida has reason to hope that the prize that has so far eluded him—the W M A C Cham pionship—will be his in the com ing season. It is indicative of the performance of the 1974 varsity football team that a year that began with expectations of another winless season should culminate with the realistic hope that the league title will belong to G ood Counsel in 1975.

As any coach can tell you, there are few "sure things" in the course of a football season, Each new season is different from the last. Players develop and graduate. O pponents grow stronger or weaker. No win can be taken for granted. But, win or lose, each season is invariably marked by the Hom ecom ing game and dance. This year was no exception. They were both great successes. The Varsity walked away from Falcon Field with a haTd-fought win over the McNamara Mustangs. That evening, the annual Hom ecom ing dance was held in the cafeteria, julie Elrod, escorted by Doug Schilling, was crowned Queen. MUsique provided the entertainment. As they say in cliche land "A good time was had by all".

jv falcons take second in wmac The JV football team's chances for a W M AC championship were kept alive until the final quarter of the season's last game against McNamara. Three quick scores by the Mustangs put an end to any aspirations for the league crown, but even the 34-6 defeat could not diminish the accomplishments of the team during the season. The junior Falcons' record, 3-2-1, did not reflect the fact that they captured undisputed possession of 2nd place in the Catholic league. Neither does it reveal that the team defeated Carroll for the first time ever, and barely missed beating St. John's, having to settle for a 6-6 tie. John Poulos and Joe Zarou keyed the Falcons overpowering running game, and Mike Krainak, Poulos and Pat Dicken were the standouts of the defensive front.

depleted frosh falcons sink to 1-7 The surprisingly low turnout for JV football last fall was the downfall of first-year coach Frank Napoli's freshmen team. With his best players promoted to the junior varsity squad, Coach Napoli was forced to rely on lesser talents among the frosh to form the nucleus of his team. A disaster resulted: a “ perfect" season that was marred only by a 6-0 win over Gonzaga. The Falcons were roundly trounced by the likes of W MAC powers McNamara, Carroll and St. John's, and lost a close decision to DeMatha.

The annual Gala Drive, presented to raise scholarship money to be distributed to needy students in the coming year was a moderate success unlike previous years. Behind the efforts of the Mother's and Father's Clubs, the combined efforts of the entire G C Community raised $26,000. Although falling short of the projected goal of $35,000, this was, nevertheless the best showing in recent history. Along with the endless knocking on doors to sell raffle tickets, the students took a day out of the year to host the annual Galathon. With Mike Holden as M.C., over $700 was added to the Gala total. Notable contributions to this television spectacular included Mr. Napoli's music group, the "Rags", the sacrifice of Mr. Lewis' beard, Bill Witte's leg-shaving, and a hodge-podge of performances and donations by the rest of the student body. The Gala came to its culmination on the evening of the Homecoming Dance when the queen, Julie Elrod drew the winning ticket for the 1975 Pontiac and announced that the lucky man was a Dr. Lewis of Silver Spring.

the man who came to dinner

"The Man Who Came to Dinner", a 1930's comedy, was the fall production of the Consortium Drama Club. With no moving sets, extraordinary production numbers or stage trickery, the cast was challenged to successfully present a play of subtle humor. Led by G.C. drama veteran Bruce Lockhart, the cast worked for six weeks to update the script and perfect their performances. The story begins with Sheridan Whiteside, (Bruce Lockhart), a well-known public figure, falling on the steps of a suburban household headed by )ohn W ooten and Rosemary Dulaney. The family is originally honored but eventually repulsed by Whiteside's strong and domineering personality. In the words of assistant director, Mike Murphy, "The Man Who Came to Dinner" attempted to "draw the audience into the living room" of the middle-class mid-west family in the play. That it succeeded in doing so was a tribute to the many talents of the actors, actresses and technicians of the Consortium Drama Club.

SAC Vice-President Chip Walter coordinated the most trouble-free school elections in recent memory during a two-week period in March and April. The unsubstantiated and heated charges that have marred previous elections were noticeably absent from the campaigns for the major SAC offices. Election week was culminated by a SAC-sponsored DinnerDance on April 14 at which the results of the various races were announced. Jorge Lopez won the election for SAC President over Don Brideau by a small margin. O ther winners included: Tad Schwartz, vice-president over John Gresh, Kevin O'Reilly over Tom DeGraba in the race for treasurer, Paul DelBianco, who triumphed over Kevin Shearer to become the new secretary, Tony Visk, elected Senior Class President by a scant margin over Lou Kratz, John Poulos, who ran a successful campaign against Dan Woolls for Junior Class President, and Rob Blaser over Mike Parent for Sophomore Class President.

speech and debate

The Good Counsel speech and debate club underwent several drastic changes this year. Mr. Don Dalphonse replaced Bro. John Joseph Stern as moderator and for the first time in the club's history, a junior, Erich Schwartz served as president. With senior Claude Fecteau returning in speech and the junior team of Erich and Tad Schwartz coming around in debate, prospects for the coming year appeared to be good. The early part of the season, however, proved to be disappointing. Restricted to local tournaments by a shortage of judges, the debaters failed to gain the seasoning necessary for a successful year. In speech, the club enjoyed early success with Claude Fecteau and Tom Coan both qualifying for the area final tournament. At mid-year, the addition of John Hurson as debate coach and a revived interest in speech by juniors Tony Visk, Ed Clark, Tom English, Greg Stack and sophomore Stephen Michael helped put the club back on the track and end out the season on a high note. lo o left: Claude Fecteau in his best oratorical form.

the pajama game

For its annual Spring production, the Consortium Drama Club elected to present "The Pajama Game." An old Broadway musical and Doris Day movie, the play concerned itself with life, love, and labor in a mid western pajama factory, A cast and crew of over 150 drama "aficionados" labored for over eight weeks to put the show together. In the acting department, superlative performances were turned in by Dennis Angulo, Bruce Lockhart, and John Berry. Senior John Mooney, Star of stage and (TV) screen, made his acting debut in the production, portraying a factory superintendent employed by the pajama company. The production was the last for Mr. Michael (Hi guy!) Lewis, who announced that he was leaving his director's chair to concentrate on other activities, All told, the play was a success from both an entertainment and an educational standpoint.

The 1975 Baseball Falcons fell short of their main objective last season—capturing the W M AC Cham pionship—but in many ways, they were the most successful of Good Counsel's teams in the three major varsity sports. Plagued by sporadic hitting and inconsistency in the field for most of the season, the Falcons still managed to beat every team in the league at least once and finished the year with a highly respectable 8-4 Conference record, good enough for third place behind DeMatha and St. John's. The season began on a disappointing note on March 26 when Calvert Hall rocked Steve Stanislav and Chris Brown for 11 runs, including a pair of homers. Against Peary on April 2, the team continued to play sluggishly, losing 2-1 despite an exceptional 4-hit performance by Brown. The Falcons righted themselves by belting Mackin 14-2, but a subsequent 11-4 loss to Loyola of Baltimore was further proof that their troubles were far from over. Good Counsel's two games with Bishop McNamara were most instrumental in shaping the team's fortunes. The Falcons' first encounter with the Mustangs came after losing to Loyola, an embarrassing defeat that was easily their worst-played game of the season. After falling behind 4-0 in the first inning, the^/arsity stormed back to tie the score, and pulled ahead when Tino Monaldo broke out of an early season batting slump by blasting a home run. Brown hung on to preserve an 8-5 victory that noticeably buoyed the team's selfconfidence. Although deterred by a 9-4 loss to DeMatha, the Falcons rebounded strongly by pounding Ireton, 13-2, in a non-league contest on April 17. Larry Wegman led the attack with a homer and two singles. The following day, St. John's Field was the site of the sporting highlight of the 1974-75 school year for Good Counsel fans. Bob McNally, Wegman and Brown ripped home runs and Stanislav turned in a masterful 4-hit shutout as the Cadets succumbed, 6-0. After posting league victories over Mackin and Gonzaga, the Falcons ran into troublesome McNamara again. Just as the first Mustang game had inspired the team to possibly its best ball game of the season, the second meeting was the portent of their eventual elimination from the W M AC race. McNamara jumped out in front again in the early innings, and this time, a Falcon comeback fell short of a 6-4 score. Facing a must-win situation with every succeeding league game, the team responded by sliding past Carroll twice, 1-0 and 2-1, respectively. In the first game, Brown recorded his only shutout of the year as he stifled the Lions on 5 hits.

Dean Francis scored the only run on a bloop single by Tom Marr in the sixth inning. The Falcons' second confrontation with Carroll was a 13-inning marathon affair that was their most suspenseful and nerve-racking contest. Marr, who collected four hits, in the game, and Jim Davis helped produce the deciding runs with key hits in the top of the 13th. Among the top three teams in the Conference, none succeeded in sweeping two games from either of its opponents. It was too much to expect the Falcons to best St. John's on May 21. The Cadets used three perfectly-placed squeeze bunts in the fourth inning to come out on top, 114, and end Good Counsel's hopes for the W M AC crown. The Falcons concluded their season by defeating DeMatha, 6-4, as Stanislav preserved Brown's third win of the year. The victory gave the varsity an 11-9 overall record that was the best winning percentage among G C major sport teams. It is fitting that 1975 varsity baseball was noteworthy for both its successes and failures, for it was a collection of motley and diverse individuals that made the Falcons an interesting and exciting team to watch. Especially significant were the contributions of the seniors on the club: McNally, Brown, Marr and particularly Davis and Wegman who were named MVP and Coach's Award winner respectively. Some hope for the future remained, too, in the presence of Stanislav, Monaldo, and company yvho have one more chance to capture that elusive championship. The team's shortcomings did not exceed their accomplishments and the excitement they created in the Good Counsel comm unity has a permanent and well-deserved place in the school's sports annals for this year.

track achieves moderate success Hopeful for a promising year the '75 track team took to the starting blocks in some early season inclement weather causing a lack of team spirit and a host of minor injuries. Despite the setbacks the team as a whole produced many accomplishments. Ace performances turned in by pole-vaulters Steve Bradley and Mike Falba, distance runners Scott Cranston and Andy Fox, sprinters John Poulos and Noel Patel and, jumper Pat Condatore all made for a consistent season of strong team showings and sparkling individual performances.

The golf team has an uncanny knack for mustering victories, a knack few varsity teams can claim at Good Counsel. Com piling a 43-5-1 record in the past five years, the team can claim one of the winningest records in G.C.'s sports history. This year's team, coached by Mr. Fred Shaffer, posted an 8-1-1 mark behind the efforts of Mike Larson, Mike McCarthy, Jim Troy, Gary Marlow, Dave Barnett, Mark Zabel, Bob Davison, Chris Brooke and Todd O'Reilly. Strong performances enabled the team to roll over Landon and High Point 9-0 and 8-1 respectively. A tie with strong Bowie seemed to unite the team into another two victories over DeMatha and McNamara before losing to St. John's. Two more victories were then added over Gonzaga and Carroll sending the team into a championship tri-meet match against Gonzaga and St. John's. Emerging from the meet victorious, the team lost in first round play of the metropolitan private school league ending a most successful season.
