Thursday: Students are given the
option to not eat lunch and to pack
lunches for the less fortunate in the
area during their lunch period.
Friday: Each first period class
should decide on a meal, and bring
in the ingredients that would be
necessary to make that meal.
Monday 11/22: Students are
encouraged to bring in their $2.50
donations.
If a first period class has
100 percent participation, the entire
class will receive an out of uniform

Eagles Upset Rival Knights
Stage Door Slasher about to Strike
Check out the Fall Play this Weekend
Josie Kolvek
Staff Writer
Be warned that there will be murders taking
place this weekend. On Friday and Saturday nights, November
19-20 at 7:30 pm in the auditorium, the performing
arts department will present “The Musical Comedy
Murders of 1940.”
In this who-done-it, a director, writer and producer
of a play are holding auditions for a musical, but
this isn’t an ordinary audition. This same group of people
began a play but left it unfinished due to the murder of
three chorus girls by the anonymous “Stage Door Slasher.”
As they continue with their show, they struggle to find
out who the killer is and remain calm as mysterious events
unfold.

This play includes two appealing genres-comedy
and mystery. Junior Kateri Dillon expects anyone
watching “to be highly entertained by the humor and
creativity that comes to life.” Senior Maggie Ryan is excited
about the show. “This musical will bring you to tears
with laughter while racking your brain with mystery and
unknown killers,” she says proudly. Senior Joe Ferneding
stars as Eddie McCuen, a struggling comedian who finds
his way to the audition and junior Cari Meixner stars as
Nikki Crandal, a dancer in the musical.
Tickets are $8 for adults, $6 for students, $4 if
the ticket is purchased early, and free with an athletic pass.
The cast and crew has put a lot of hard work into this
show and, according to Ryan, “is definitely an event that
shouldn’t be missed!”

No Coupons Needed
for this Deal
Maggie Switzer
Copy Editor
Just a few days ago, on November 14,
CJ transformed itself into something different:
a shopping center, that’s right. Girls, moms, and
other people from the community flocked to the
sale called Dresses for Degrees, a fundraiser dedicated
to helping women in Belize. The event featured
many beautiful dresses, most of them worn
once and put away in someone’s closet. Now,
those dresses can have another chance to be taken
out for a spin on the dance floor.
The fundraiser asked girls to donate
their dresses to CJ, and CJ in turn sold them for
prices of $15 for short dresses and $20 for long
dresses (usually worn to Prom). The name Dresses
for Degrees is self-explanatory: the dress profits
go towards degrees for education. Who gets these
degrees? In Belize, Central America, when girls are
not married by ages of about 16-17 years, they are
married off to older men and have to drop out
of school and raise their families. In order to end
this cycle, Key Club decided to raise money to pay
for girls’ scholarships to school. The girls then get
a better chance at a life without poverty, and
this also improves the communities they
live in. CJ should feel proud that it is compassionate
enough to help people half a
world away.
It is not unusual for schools
to give back and raise money for certain
causes. CJ is special because we
have the opportunity to go down to
Belize and meet the girls we are helping.
During the summer of 2010, CJ
alumni Kayla Shelley ’10 and Annie
Stoddard ’10 got the chance
to meet the two girls they raised
money for. Their families even
welcomed Kayla and Annie into
their homes and fed them dinner,
which is a big honor in Belizean
customs. The communities
down there will certainly
benefit from all the hard work
the CJ Key Club has put in.
Over the past four years, I have been a
member of the CJ community. I have called myself
an Eagle. But one particular weekend brought
meaning to it all. I would not trade my time at CJ
for anything, but knowing that there are so many
alumni that have gone before me, and so many
that will come after me deepened my understanding
of what it means to be an Eagle.
Can You Teach Me How to Dougie?
Kyle Foley
News Editor
There is a popular phrase that is going
through the CJ halls in recent months.
“Teach me how to Dougie” can be heard as
you walk the halls. The popular song by Cali Swag
District has really caught on here on Ludlow Street.
Now the question arises, how do you Dougie? I hit
the halls to find some people who could teach me.
Here is what I found:
“In the song, they say ‘put your arms out
front, lean side to side.’ That’s basically all you do,”
said senior Jasmine Williams. That seemed simple
enough, but freshman Keyra Rutlin added, “You’ve
gotta put your swag with it.” That’s where things
get interesting. As I walked the halls finding people
that said they could teach me how to Dougie, I
found that the actual dance varied from person to
person. The basic “put your arms out front, lean
side to side” that is said in the song was included
in everyone’s version of the Dougie, but there were
different styles, or swags, mixed in. I found lots of
people who did more with their arms, and lots
of people p p that liked to move their legs
and
body more as they taught
me
how to Dougie.
On November 6, CJ was open to the
whole community. Alumni shared stories of their
high school experience with current students. The
legacy and tradition that makes up the CJ community
was evident that day.
On November 7, junior high students
and their parents were at CJ to get a taste of what
it’s like to be an Eagle. I had the privilege of talking
with the students and sharing my experience as an
Eagle.
Being an Eagle means more than coming
It was fun to find out how to Dougie, but
I was left with one question-Where did the Dougie
come from? I did some research of my own
and found out that, according to UrbanDictionary.
com, “The term ‘dougie’ derives from the name of
80’s early 90’s Hip Hopper Doug-E- Fresh. The
term ‘dougie’ means to have a cool or hip style.” I
also found out from the website that Dougie originated
in Dallas, Texas, which explains the line, “I
ain’t from Dallas, but I D-town boogie.” There is
surprisingly a history behind “Teach Me How to
Dougie,” which separates the song from others of
its kind-like “Crank That” and “You’re a Jerk.”
Dougie-ing has become a trend. Much
like “Crank That,” “Stanky Legg,” and “You’re a
Jerk,” “Teach Me How to Dougie” has become yet
another popular form of dance at CJ. It will be interesting
to see how long Dougie-ing will be popular.
But for now, take some time to learn how to
Dougie. I found out that there are plenty of people
at CJ that can teach you.

you are a part of, being able to see the spirit

where education happens in more than academics.
It is a place of diversity, prayer, and community.
Being an Eagle means being a member
of a 160 year old community that will continue to
grow for many years.

Eagles Reach out to Community
to Contribute Service
Kyle Foley
News Editor
On Friday and Saturday October 22
and 23, 165 students and 14 staff members from
Chaminade Julienne participated in various service
projects across the Miami Valley. Participants in
the annual Join Hands Miami Valley project went
to thirteen different service sites, and students led
groups at each site.
As many could guess, there was a lot
of behind-the-scenes work that went into preparing
Join Hands Miami Valley. Service Homeroom
Reps went from homeroom to homeroom to make
sure CJ students were informed about the weekend.
FLIGHT, along with the reps and the staff members
in Ministry & Service, got everything together
in order to send the 165 students out to their service
sites. “It’s a nice way to get students excited
about service,” said Mrs. Kinnear, “It’s especially
nice for students to get to know each other.”

The CJ mission is all about giving back to
the community, so it’s no surprise that the scholarly
leaders that make up CJ’s National Honor Society
are working for a goal that is higher than themselves.
The organization, which honors students
who have demonstrated excellence in both character
and academics, is currently involved with a charity
project in the Miami Valley known as Noah’s
Ark Cardiac Rehabilitation Fund. The fund aims
to provide financial support for cardiac patients in
the area who could not otherwise afford necessary
rehabilitation for their conditions. The goal of each

Pump up music has blared through the hallways. A car was
bashed with a sledgehammer in the name of charity. All these
things are signs of the week every October known as Beat
Alter Week.
The hallway decorating contest was a hotly contested
event with the juniors “Christmas in October” themed
hallway winning out. The runners up were the seniors with
their throwback music theme, the freshman with their “Past/
Present/Future” theme, and the sophomores with their jungle
theme. “I thought it was a fun way to get everyone excited
for the Alter game,” says sophomore Gretchen Bruggeman.
site leader April Grierson
said, “I came out of Join
Hands Miami Valley with
a sense of community. Everybody
was so nice and
friendly.” Grierson also
added, “It made me feel
accomplished,” showing
that she was aware that she
was helping the community.
For the most part, student
participants did not necessarily
know the others in
their group, whether it be
students or teachers. “It’s
nice to see students and
teachers interact outside the classroom. They get to
know each other in a different setting,” added Mrs.
Kinnear.
There were some clubs and teams that
participated in a site together. Student Council,

among his fellow members,

All the hard work decorating was put in by the students of
each class, staying after school, hoping to earn some class
pride and bragging rights.
The Beat Alter Bonfire was also a big success. The
main draw of the event was not the fire, surprisingly. Students
came to the party with dollars in hand, waiting for their chance
to take a swing at the Beat Alter car with the Sledgehammer
of Justice. “Beating up the car made the bonfire even better,”
says junior Camille Dickens. The car demolition raised $100
for the American Heart Association.
The destructive fun ended a little early when junior
football player, Mitchell Jones, broke the hammer with a
mighty swing. The students also enjoyed a rousing dance party
with a DJ afterwards that kept the party going. The week
could only be considered successful with a victory at the very
end.

Once a Performer, Always a Performer
Pep Band Joins with Alumni Band at Homecoming Game
Josie Kolvek
Staff Writer
The pep band
is known for bringing lots
of spirit and excitement
to the football games,
and at the homecoming
game on October 15, the
excitement was returned.
They got the opportunity
to play with alumni
band members, including
Chaminade’s first drum
major from the class of
1944.
Returning piccolo player Amber Vincent
‘99 was happy to be in the stands again. “It brought
back a lot of great memories and it’s great to play
with a big group like this,” she gushes. Another alum
that got in the spirit was Steve Kolvek, who proudly
wore his Chaminade sweater and band beret. Junior
Jay Bryant was thrilled that the alumni joined them
and to see that many people who were in band in
high school are still playing. “You could tell they
had a true passion for music and were excited to

be performing again…I felt the alumni added great
energy to the game,” he recalls.
As exciting as this was for the band, some
students thought it was enjoyable to watch. Sophomore
Maddie Voelkl thought the performance was
really good. “It got the alumni to work together
with the current students, and I thought it was a
good experience for the band,” she says.
The band had a great time playing, and
so did the alumni. They are all looking forward to
the next time they can play together.
Vega: ‘Nowhere to go but up’
Nick Muhl
Editor-in-Chief
After getting started by new choral director
Joe Whatley and performance director Natalie
Houliston, the new Vega acapella group has been a
very popular subject to talk about at CJ.
The group was founded in order to
showcase the
hidden vocal
talents that CJ
has to offer.
The group can
be found practicing
almost
every day, and
have begun to
highlight what is
the new and excitingperforming
arts group at
CJ. After many
auditions, the
Vega group includes
seniors Josh Landes, Kayla Hayes, Rachel
Ruttle, juniors Trevor Meyers, Cari Meixner and
Mackenzie Aughe, as well as sophomore Carly
Meixner.
Thus far, the Vega group has performed
the Star Spangled Banner at the Homecoming
game, performed at Autumn Overtures, and have
even performed for the eighth grade discovery days.
Landes had this to say of the group’s performances
so far. “Autumn Overtures was a new experience for
us. We weren’t used to performing in front of such
a large audience, and we didn’t think we performed
to our full potential, but overall it was a great first
performance.” On
the eighth grade
discovery days,
Landes said, “The
discovery days
were awesome
for us. It gave us a
good opportunity
to play with our
sound, as well as
showcase such a
great opportunity
for students to
have at CJ”.

The group performs
many pop-
ular songs including, “Seasons of Love” from the
Broadway show RENT, and “I Hope You Dance”
by Lee Ann Womack. “We have nowhere to go but
up,” says Landes. “This group will be here to stay at
CJ for a long time, and Mr. Whatley and Ms. Houliston
are anxious to keep this ensemble going.”

Absence of microwave forces students to settle for cold lunches

UPDATE: As this article was being written, the administration purchased a microwave after realizing it was a need of the students.
Before the microwave at Chaminade
Julienne mysteriously disappeared,
students enjoyed the privilege of
heating up their lunches; it made
the food enjoyable and the students didn’t need
to pay the high cafeteria prices in order to have a
hot lunch. Now, the students are forced to eat cold
lunches every day.
Prior to the microwave vanishing, it was a
privilege to students, and the students never abused
the privilege. CJ students used the microwave in a
very civilized manner; no one ever pushed, shoved,
or argued over who got to use it first. Two students
would often put their food in together and share, so
it would save time and allow more people to use it.
Now, without a microwave, some students
have gone to desperate measures to heat up
their lunches. There is a teacher that has a microwave
in his room and is more than willing to allow
students to use it; although, that isn’t a good
enough reason for most teachers to allow a student

in the hallway during homeroom. That means if a
student has 4B lunch or 5B, he or she would have
to wait until homeroom is over, use the microwave,
and walk all the way down to the cafeteria. If a student
had 4A or 5A lunch, he or she would have to
wait until class is over. This gives the student little
time to finish the lunch that they worked so hard to
make enjoyable.
The funny thing about the microwave
situation is, the teachers still have the luxury of a
microwave in the teacher’s lounge, which the students
can’t use. It isn’t fair that the teachers have
benefits that the students don’t; after all, there are
more students than teachers.
It can be difficult to eat healthfully in the
CJ cafeteria, because the lunch menu doesn’t offer
many healthy options. Some students try their hardest
to eat healthy foods, but it is hard to choke down
raw vegetables, unless of course they are drenched
in ranch and the nutritional value is robbed of
the vegetable, which then makes the attempt of a

healthy lifestyle pointless. The students previously
turned to the microwave to make their veggies a
little tastier. However, now there is no way of heating
up the nutritious food, unless students were to
bring in colanders and run the veggies under hot
water. My guess is, that probably wouldn’t happen.
The question is, why is there no longer
a microwave? Microwaves cost about $50. CJ
should listen to the students as much as possible,
since their parents pay a pretty penny to send their
children to CJ. I thought that, if a microwave really
isn’t in CJ’s budget, the school could, at the very
least, have an out of uniform day for $1 and use
part of the proceeds to pay for a microwave. Another
option is passing around a donation can during
homeroom to raise money for the microwave.
If that didn’t raise enough money, there could be a
three-day bake sale during lunch. CJ students definitely
deserve to enjoy their lunch, and a microwave
isn’t asking too much.

CJ Beats Alter 13-6,
Breaks Alter’s 35

Win Streak
Nick Muhl
Editor-in-chief
When the 3-6 Eagles prepared for their
annual rivalry game, not many gave them a chance
against the then 8-1 Alter Knights. The Eagles had
not defeated the Knights in regular season play in
10 years, and hadn’t beaten them in postseason
since 2004.
The Knights came in as heavy favorites
against an Eagles football team that had lost 5
games by seven points or less. Even a Dayton Daily
News writer wrote “Andy Helms and co. have suffered
many close losses this season, but this one
shouldn’t even be close.” You can never count out
the Eagles on any given Friday night.
The Eagles defeated the Knights in a defensive
game 13-6. Defensive Coordinator Marcus
Colvin’s game plan combined with great play from
There are several CJ graduates that have
excelled as student athletes at levels beyond high
school. Here are some updates on what some of
these graduates are doing.
Javon Ringer (Class of 2005) Football
Javon Ringer is known as one of the
best football players to come out of the Miami
Valley. After recording over 6,000 yards and 78
touchdowns while playing for CJ, Ringer was
primed to have success on the next level of
football after recovering from an ACL tear. Ringer
went on to excel at Michigan State, after graduating
from CJ, as one of the nation’s best running
backs in college football. He was then drafted to
the Tennessee Titans, where he backs up star Chris
Johnson.
Many believed being the backup to
one of the NFL’s best this season, Ringer would
have limited carries, or even close to none. Ringer
has once again proven his doubters wrong. On
Monday Night Football on October 18, Ringer
exploded on the Jacksonville Jaguars for ten carries
and a total of 42 yards. This game brought Ringer’s
totals on the season to 29 carries for 161yards
and a touchdown thus far. Ringer’s once thought
limited carries have been the complete opposite
and now many regard Ringer as an up and coming
back in the NFL and one of the best backups in
the league.

to help promote international basketball, Raymond

will begin to prepare a young team for the Asain
Games on November 12.
Kurt Hess (Class of 2009) Football
Former starting quarterback at CJ, Kurt
Hess has recently been performing on a high level.
Hess won the starting quarterback job as a redshirt
freshman for the Youngstown State Penguins.
Hess impressed ESPN announcers by
putting up above average numbers on college
football powerhouse Penn State in the first start of
his career. Hess threw an 80-yard touchdown early
in the game and even had his team leading over
Penn State in the first quarter. Hess has continued
to impress by throwing 10 touchdowns, and only
4 interceptions; he also has added two rushing
touchdowns. Hess boasts a 63 % pass completion
rate on the season.
Emily Kauth (Class of 2008) Volleyball
Emily Kauth, CJ class of 2008, started
all 33 games for the Bowling Green Falcon Women’s
volleyball team last year. She also recorded 77
blocks and a .247 attack percentage. This season

gonna forget till the day I die. Every time I meet an
alum, the first question they’re gonna ask is did you
beat Alter? And we’re going to be able to say yes we
did.”
After junior starting quarterback Michael
Simpson went out with an injury early in the
game, having already thrown a touchdown to junior
Darian Reynolds, the Eagles’ chances looked slim.
However, Alter seemed to forget the Eagles had a
prepared and ready senior backup quarterback in
John Beurschen. Buerschen, along with the help
of his teammates and fellow seniors such as Tim
Szabo and Lee Hollis Jr. was able to end Alter’s 35

the season for CJ.

teams. The women’s
team has only
three seniors while
the men sport no
runners from the
class of 2011. This
youth and inexperience
would
leave most teams
without leadership,
but those voids
have been filled by
women’s team captains Rachel Collins, senior and
Mary Kate Carrigg, junior. When asked about the
lack of senior leadership on the men’s team, junior
Sam Mullins said, “Sam Wittman and Will Bonner
have really stepped up, leading by example. They
are the best runners at meets and practices.”

The teams have been running at Triangle
Park since June, developing great team chemistry.
This time together has helped the men to a successful
season as a team. They won a quad meet
between all the GCL North schools on September
14 and also won the Ed Leas Fall Classic Meet in
Eaton. Optimism is expressed by many members
of the team, including Bonner. “We have a good
chance to grow even more, as a team.” Freshman
John Carper, sophomores Wittman and Bonner,
and junior Mullins have anchored the team to create
a base of success for this year and the years to
come.
The team time spent together has helped
the learning curve with the young female runners,
as well. All thirteen members of the women’s team
posted personal records at Districts-the last full
team race of the season. Stud runner Kathryn Marshall
was the only women’s runner on CJ’s team to
post a time under 20 minutes, conjuring memories
of the great Lizzy Gleason. “Kathryn was a really
positive person who works hard at every practice,”
said Carrigg. Marshall, Collins, and Bonner all failed
to advance to State, but this season’s success bodes
well for the future.
