Bahai Club

Bahai's believe that God has sent to us
another Divine Messenger. His name is
Baha'U'llah. The sign is Persian, meaning
"God is the All-Glorious". Baha'U'llah is the
Divine Messenger promised by Moses, Jesus,
and all the other Prophets of God. He came to
unite all religions and all races in order to
have one world of peace, love, and justice.

Rock Valley's Trojans ended the
season with six big wins and three
insignificant losses. They scrimmaged
their way to third place in the N4C
Conferance, tackling many an honor
along the way. The biggest honor of
them all was having the secondary
defensive squad finish second in the
whole nation! Four team members
made all conferance and all region
four. They were Hubert Baker-line-
backer, Bob Wear-defensive end, Tom
Zawlocki-offensive tackle, and Carl
Jenkins-halfback.

Bob Senatre fires out of sand trap at Sandy Hollow.

The only returning letterman was Bob Senatre,
who also was the teams captain for the '72 season.
Bart Anderson, Phil Hinde, Dick Finley, John
Buechner, Chuck Nihan, John Kutcher, and Jon Lein-
baugh outlined the remaining seven players for 1972.
The team started the season with Lake County on
Sept. 19 as it turned out Lake County was the tough-
est team Rock Valley Golf Team would face, by
downing the Trojans twice in regular season. After
that first loss the Linksmen came back and won all
the N4C matches with the exception of DuPage the
last match of the season by one stroke. Still this
didn't stop the Trojans from rolling on, again the
Golfers come back to grab the Region 4 Sectional at
Freeport. The team carded a 335 with Bart Anderson
Medalist turning a 79, Chuck Nihan, Bob Senatre,
Dick Finley and John Buechner carried the team on
to victory, Nihan pitched in with a 83, Senatre with
85, Finley an 88 and Buechner 90. In the N4 Con-
ference the Linksmen slated a second place position,
Bart Anderson was second low Medalist in the con-
ference. Coach Hawkins was not pleased with the
second place showing of the Trojans. "We could have
won easily," he stated, "but we lacked the discipline
necessary to win. I believe it's my fault, if anyone is
to bear the blame." Commenting about the Links-
men's performance this year, Coach Hawkins was not
much happier, "This year has been frustrating. We are
either up or down, with no middle ground." But with
all this the golf team put on a pretty good showing
for the 1972 season, with 5 wins and 2 losses.

Rock Valley's Womens Field Hock-
ey Team had a slow start with having
trouble getting enough girls to come
out for the team. The team moved
right along. They practiced twice a
week, for two hours at a time. At the
games the team was led by Connie
Syse, this year's captain. She was res-
ponsible to talk with officials and to
lead the team in warm ups before the
game. Most of our goals were made by
Nancy Hobba and the rest by Linda
Renk. We hope more girls will become
interested in field hockey and make
next year's team even better!
