Look to this day! For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the varieties and realities of your existence: The bliss of growth; The glory of action; The splendor of beauty; For yesterday is already a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision; But today, well-lived, makes every yesterday A dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day! Such is the salutation of the dawn! i Look to this day! 2 For it is life, the very life of life. 3 In its brief course lie all the varieties and realities of your existence: But today, well lived, makes every yesterday tomorrow a vision of hope. 7 Look well, therefore, to this day!

Your gifts to us were not ... You have given freely of your time and patience, you have treated us equally, as adults, and helped us to understand, but most of all you have kept your faith in us. The class of 1970 wishes to express its most sincere thanks to you, Mr. Lloyd 'ff 10 dedication 11 Probably the main things people remember about their school are the special events that take place during the year ... Alfred-Almond has many. First of all, the Elementary School stole the show for the day with their annual Halloween Parade. All kinds of talent prospects were introduced at our Talent Show. Change is always welcomed, so we had a different assembly program, debating the ef- fectiveness of the moratorium. Two events were long awaited by the female population of the school: the Jr. High Prom and the Senior Ball. Fi- nally when June came the whole school took to the outdoors for competition on Field Day. 12 SENIOR PLAY Strained nerves, long hours of re- hearsal and a lot of tension, but fi- nally The Importance of Being Ear- nest came off with a success. Truely a class project, under the direction of Mrs. Phelan, some had the chance to try their hand at performing. Others worked on scenery, costumes, makeup and all the other facets of putting on a play. 13 14 ADMINISTRATION Reason and calm judgement, the qualities specially belonging to an administrator. 15 ADMINISTRATION Mrs. Florence: School Nurse Secretaries—Seated: Mrs. Lockwood, Miss Davis.

Responsible for getting us to school in all kinds of weather, (Should we be thankful for that?), the bus drivers manage to add some brightness to an otherwise dull morning ride to school. Many devote valuable hours to driving to basketball games and other activities. CUSTODIANS B. Lorrow, G. Fig, M. Knudsen, D. Pierce, A. Perry, V. Cornelius, A. Lorrow, P. Studley, L. White. Rarely are these people given enough credit for their work. After all, they are the ones who make this school as “comfortable” as possible for us. They even spend much of their summer putting the school back together after we have left. 19 CAFETERIA STAFF ROW 1; H. Spencer. B. Jimmerson. G. Coleman. S. Stevens. ROW 2: Y. Denni- son. E.

The loss of several starters through graduation was a major problem fac- ing Coach Lloyd in his first year as varsity soccer coach. He was forced to use several sophomores and fresh- man in the lineup for the first time to fill the holes left by graduation. Let- termen from last year were Dennis Al- len, Bill Hanks, and Dick Stuart. Al- though we experienced a poor season Coach Lloyd looks to next year with several experienced underclassmen returning to brighten the soccer pic- ture at A-A. JUNIOR VARSITY SOCCER ROW 1: G.

Giedlin, K. Costello. TENNIS This year's tennis team turned in a very suc- cessful campaign. Under the guidance of that in- comparable mentor, Mr. Moore, and led by the play of Dave Ormsby and Doug Morgenfeld in doubles, the team compiled a 9 and 1 record, los- ing only to Avoca by one point. Losing sectional doubles champs Ormsby and Morgenfeld was hard and Coach Moore had to rebuild with the help of Mike Speca, Andy Love, and Andy Butler. ROW 1: R. Rulon, L. Clare, A. Butler, G. Wheat.

Aside from hav- ing a new face putting the team through their paces, that of Russell Allen in his first year at the helm, the sport also changed its look with the addition of three girls to the team. The loss of last year’s seniors has hurt, but Coach Allen was, with good reason, optimistic about the chances for this year’s team to make a good showing. ROW 1: Mr. Allen, A. Butler, B.

Though the team lost a few of last year’s stand- outs and had a rather poor season, Coach Lloyd seemed very sat- isfied with this year’s team. With the help of returning lettermen such as Don Higgins, Craig Reynolds, and Kris Evans, along with several promising first year men, the team had the poten- tial to go a long way this year. ROW 1: S. Cornell, M. Ninos, L. Clare, C. Reynolds, J. Ninos. ROW 2: Mr. Lloyd, S. Smith, K. Evans, D. Higgins, K. Weitzel, R. McGraw, M. Aftuck. 31 JUNIOR VARSITY WRESTLING TRACK ROW 1: P. Fasano, Manager; F. Beckhorn, B. Lockwood, K. Evans, M. Aftuck, C. Burrow, J. Eddy, G. Moore, Manager. ROW 2: P. Eisenhardt, D. Stasiuk, F. Guthrie, K. Lorrow, M, Winters, G. Ordway, K. Ordway, T. Calkins, J. Mills. ROW 3: Mr. McEvoy, Coach; P. Stasiuk, R. Stock- weather, D. Higgins, B. Palmer, R. Wakefield, R. Austin, H. Young, J. Shaw, M. Smith. R. Davison, B. Tuttle, G. Herbert. The track team had a good showing last year despite the fact that two of their meets were can- celed due to rain. Thirty boys turned out. This was the best in several years, Coach McEvoy points out. Coach McEvoy also stressed that the team enjoyed a good season due to team effort, with every boy contributing his share to the team's success. The trackmen won three meets, lost one, and took two second places. They also took sec- ond in the Counties, led by Bruce Tuttle, taking first in the mile. Several boys also competed in the sectionals. Losing only three boys, this year’s campaign was very strong with John Mills, Ken Lorrow, Don Higgins, and Bruce Tuttle returning. 32 CROSS COUNTRY ROW 1: M. Eddy. F. Beckhorn. S. Smith. L. Herrick, K. Kuhne, G. Ells. ROW 2: J. Mills, P. Stasiuk, D. Stasiuk, B. Tuttle. M. Speca. B. Lockwood. Coach Moore. ROW 1: M. Wheeler. G. Moore. D. Smith. ROW 2: B. Wakefield. J. Calkins, A. Woodworth, Coach Moore. Coach Moore’s runners enjoyed another fine season in a sport that has had winners for quite a few years. They re- corded six first places, four second places, and three third places. This included a second place in the A-A invitational. Bruce Tuttle led the Eagle runners during the season and placed fourth in the sectionals. He was supported by three juniors—Bill Lockwood, Fred Beckhorn, and Mike Speca. Fred finished third in the sectional run. As a team the harriers placed second in the sectionals. Next year’s outlook is promis- ing with Beckhorn, Lockwood, and Speca returning to lead the squad. 33 VARSITY BASKETBALL ROW 1: D. Snyder. Manager; D. Rusinko, A. Love. G. Moore, Manager. ROW 2: B. Hanks. B. Palmer, D. Lorow, R. Austin, D. Stuart. D. Allen, D. Reid, B. Lewis, M. Speca, Coach Moore. This year’s team had great potential for a winning season. The Eagles won their opener, then dropping two in a row they came back to open league play with a win over Andover. Four starter’s earned letters last year: Jim Norton and Dennis Allen led the attack with Doug Lorow and Bill Hanks often contributing to the score and alternating as the playmaker. Dick Stuart and Mike Speca were both candidates for the fifth position. Coach Moore sums things up by stating The boys look good and if they can get together and play as a team ... well everyone else better look out.” 34 JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL ROW 1: T. Giedlin, Manager; G. Norton, T. Calkins, M. Moses, J. Snyder, J. Schwartz. ROW 2: Coach McEvoy, D. Hurd, M. Parker, M. Winters, W. Johnston, M. Giedlin, R. Perry, S. Lorow, M. Gorton. Coach McEvoy's Marauders” got off to a good start this past year losing only one early season game. The team has looked good and was composed mainly of sophomores with a year’s experience under their belt. You can be sure these boys were tough competitors during the rest of the season and will be next year when they try out for Varsity. 35 BASEBALL The baseball team under the direction of Mr. Good had a good season this year. They lost only one game during the regular league season and were tied for first place. A playoff was held with Cuba at Belfast and the Eagles lost their bid for their second title in as many years by dropping the decision 3 to 2. Among these lettermen who returned from last year’s squad are five seniors, Dick Stuart, Jim Norton, Doug Lorow, Denny Allen, and Bill Hanks. Several underclassmen were out trying to win starting berths. All things considered, the Eagles showed great promise in finishing high in the league. ROW 1: M. Harvey. Manager; B. Hardy. M. Moses. S.

This year’s cheerleaders worked very hard, get- ting money for new uniforms, building up spirit, bolstering the morale of the basketball teams. They did a fine job and deserve thanks from all quarters. 37 GIRLS’ SPORTS ROW 1: S. Tucker, M. Gaynor. C. Cappadonia, K. Lowrey. ROW 2: A. Reid, S. Swartz, B. Flynn, M. Jones, B. Calkins, M. Johnston. ROW 3: B. Hall, P. Cappa- donia, M. Hanks, J. Phillipson, N. Wakefield, V. Mills. L. Rough. A very essential part of this year’s extra curricu- lar activities was the girl’s program. Soft ball, soc- cer, field hockey and basketball were some of the sports they participated in, both intramurally and interscholastically. Girls earn letters after compil- ing at least forty points during after school com- petition and due to their enthusiasm and persever- ance the letters are well deserved. ROW 1: J. Hanks, L. Soule, S. Lobdell, S. Dickinson, P. Harwood, K. Young, L. Murray, L. Bloomquist. ROW 2: S. DuBreuil, P. Norton, P. Powers, S. Mills, B. Franklin, R. Heller, B. Hanks. D. Shepherd, L. Fraser, K. Fasano, G. Burzycki. 38 GIRLS’ BOWLING A branch of their sports program was girls bowling which was carried through the winter months. The girls picked their own teams and they held very spirited contests every week. The season ended with a tournament which pitted the best bowlers of A-A against other school teams which brought a good deal of excitement and fun to all those involved. ROW 1: N. Wakefield. S.

By performing at the Christmas and spring programs, as well as in the parades on Halloween and Memorial Day, the members of the Senior Band get a chance to show off their real musical abilities, (which is sometimes surprising, even to them!) JUNIOR BAND These promising musicians have turned out to be a real asset to the musical department of our school. Counting the days until they can ascend into Senior Band, the Junior Band works hard at doing their best. ROW 1: L. Faughnan, R. Smith, M. Bancroft, J. Patton, L. Higgins, J. Lewis, D. Rigby, S.

With song in heart and music in hand the Senior Chorus has performed in various assemblies during the year. We are all grateful to the Senior Chorus and their new director, Miss Ford, for the musical entertainment they have given us. JUNIOR CHORUS Although a younger group, the Junior Chorus has been no less enthu- siastic about singing than the Senior Chorus. It is said that “practice makes perfect” and the Junior Chorus has tried with much effort to prove it. By the sounds of this group they have come very close to succeeding. ROW 1: C. Burzycki, C.

Although they are not often heard by the public, their great efforts deserve to be commended. ELEMENTARY CHORUS Last but not least in the vocal music department is the Elementary Cho- rus. With Miss Ford’s help the members have learned at an early age, to harmonize and improve their voices. Surely, each member is looking for- ward to those days in Junior Chorus and finally Senior Chorus. ROW 1: D. Hardy, C. Love. L. Brooks. N. Robinson, T. Earl. D. O'Hara. T. Freeland. E. Stopfel.

Actually, the projectionists have given much of their time and effort to aid a teacher desperately in need of some- one to show a film. GENERAL DISCUSSION GROUP Through the General Discussion Group, students are able to express their views on a great variety of subjects. Although the discussion may start out on one interesting topic, it very often ends up on one completely irrelevant to the original one. ROW 1: S. Huntington. M. Cushing, S. Berliner. ROW 2: S.

It was headed by John Mills and represented a large cross-section of classes and sports in the Senior High. The members or- ganized fund raising drives and their year was climaxed by the preparation for the Athletic Banquet and Awards Day. FIRE WARDENS ROW 1: P. Norton, J. Phillipson, R. Calkins, N.

As soon as they hear the clang of a bell, these dedicated fire wardens are found racing to their posts to check out windows, lights, and students(?). We owe our great thanks to these members of our student body. 46 NEWSPAPER STAFF ROW 1: R. Calkins, S. Tucker, J. Hardy, S. Mills, P. Montgomery, L. Fraser, B. Flynn, M. Cushing, M. Aftuck. ROW 2: B.

With a new name, the “Overground,” and a new editor, Lisa Turner, the school newspaper has been circulated for another year. This would not have been possible without the help of the staff who have written articles, poems and collected adver- tisements to keep the paper alive. ALCEN ASSISTANTS ROW 1: B. Hall, H.

Acting as editors’ right-hand men,” the assistants get a good idea of their future jobs as editors. So, for helping do our “dirty work”, the staff of ’70 wishes to thank you for your tire- less efforts and wish you the best of luck next year when you undertake your own Alcen. 47 FHA Having survived the rigors of initi- ation, FHA members emerge ready to serve their fellow members. This year, as in the FFA, the FHA has sold candy and key chains to earn money for their projects. Of course, all mem- bers eventually hope to put their homemaking talents to use when they one day become homemakers for good. ROW 1: M. Lindeman, J. Lorrow, S. Denison, C. Norton, B. Kull. ROW 2: D.

These distinguished members serve as an inspiration to the many underclassmen. In addition to their usual sponsoring of the Christmas assem- bly, the N.H.S. is instigating a tutorial program in an effort to serve their fellow students. SEATED: L. Turner, J. Mills, H.

Sponsoring assemblies on the moratorium and safe driving, sending Brenda Barron to a Student Leadership Institute at Notre Dame, and instigat- ing the installation of a phone booth in the school are a few of their accomplishments. Directed by the able-bodied offi- cers of the Senior High, the Council does its best to plan a variety of activities such as roller skating parties and dances for the student body. JUNIOR HIGH STUDENT COUNCIL With Mrs. Mattison’s help and encouragement the Junior High Council has made great ad- vances this year. Their help with the assembly on moratoriums was greatly appreciated. The members are gaining valuable experience which will enable them to be assets to the Sen- ior High. SEATED (front): R.
