I BAUBLES, BANGLES, AND BEADS — In 1976, everybody is so fashion-consious that a lot of people find it hard to keep up with the almost-weekly changes. However, the emphasis seems to be on deca- dance tackiness, so darlings, gel out the glitter!! BOTTLE OF ASPIBIN — To help cope with screaming kids, bitchy interns, brusque teachers, and bloodthirsty administrators. CIGGIES — Yes, friends, the amount of cigaretes being smoked is ever increasing. — Just about every- body lights up occasionally or more. So whether it’s a Kool, a Marlboro, a More, or a Vantage Menthol (yay!), flick your Bic and enjoy! A.R.H.S MAKE UP — Lipstick and gloss, mascara, eyeshadow — all are essential for keeping up a good impression at ARMS. In these rather trendy times, even some girls are wearing makeup. READING MATERIAL — Well, you just CAINT waste all vour time vegging! Gotta bring COZZMOE (with Este and Monique, tne hottest new fashion model) or a Playgirl (pant pant) or Popular Mechanics (clank clank). 31 Remember The Good Old Superlatives?

Led by Charley Chandler and arch rival Tom (Chip) Quarles, along with Peter Chametzky, Jon Waldron, Dave Romer, and faithful alternate Keith Quinton, the team has reached peaks of knowledge never before reached by mortal men. As always the motto is never read when you can skim, superficiality above all”. The Debate Team made outstanding progress this year, emerging as one of the top powers in New England. On the novice level, Amherst debaters won awards wherever they went. On the varsity level as well, the team came into its own, becoming competitive with the best teams in the Northeast.

D These faithful and true dispersers of the truths of the Universe are gone but not forgotten. You might call the Student School Committee an “unseen power” in school business. Although few people in the school are aware of what it is, not to mention what it does, or who’s on it, the Student School Committee does meet with the superintendent and Mr. Heffley twice a month; discussing problems in the school, hearing complaints from students, and sometimes taking action by going to the “real ” School Committee. ;raphic — 1ST ROW (L — R) — D Marion, D Dalton, R Paul, S Sherwood.

The I.S.C. was begun this year by students who felt the need to create a time and place for people from the many different cultures in the high school to socialize and learn from each other. Activities have included games from different countries, guest lectures, ping pong, and dinner parties. Internalional Sludcnis Club — 1ST ROW (L — R) — 1 Pham, L Chen. 1.

Some of their activities are the Christ- mas Bazaar, a Senior Citizen day, the companion pro- gram, and improving the physical appearance of the school. The Pep Club is an orga- nization which raises money to support the school in many ways. Its members attend all the football and basketball games and sell refresh- ments and programs.

It has sponsored the hunter safety program, a very popular class that helps students get their hunting licenses. We have also gone on many field trips: ice-fishing, snow mobiling, and ice hockey in the winter and Quabbin Reservoir fishing in the spring. It’s then when Mr, Cepek comes to gather up driftwood to share his wife’s cooking with us. A highlight too is the annual picnic when Perchak and Ziomek always make excellent potato salad and Col. Craig fries the chicken (just in case not enough fish is caught). Picnic awards were presented to: Dave Thayer — highest swan dive at Green River; Peter Perchak — biggest eater; Kevin Longto — best fisherman, Richard Vassallo — best (and most knowledgeable) camper.

Craig (Ad), T, Eddy, P Perchak 1975-76 had to be a morale-boosting and rebuilding year for the Symphony Band, due to the large number of players lost to gradu- ation. The main activity was giving concerts. These performances were termed “highly successful” by Mr. Phillips, and included a program in which the Band played a Bach prelude and fugue. The Band also tried to build up the treasury during the year, using many methods one of which was picking apples. The Band was ably staffed by Dan Winslow (Pres), Joy Dean (Sec), Judy Bragg (Lib), Bobs Bond and Simon (Equipment Mgrs), and Beth Wellman, Bill Tyler, Matt Levinger, and Barney Plisko (Class Reps). Pep Band could be seen at all the football games this year, dedicatedly playing their instru- ments in the cold weather. But it proved worth every frigid mouth- piece when they helped cheer the football team onto the Division Championship. The Pep Band also played at home basketball games. Jazz Workshop SEATED: P Shepp, J. Griswold, D Mazor, S. Rich STANDING: T Porter. D. Chevan. The Jazz Workshop gave some performances this year, among them an informal concert in the auditorium. However, the J. W. stayed mainly in the music room, playing, singing and having a good time. At the begin- ning of the year the group consisted of a pia- nist and a few drum- mers, but later they were joined by a saxophonist, a singer, and others. An abundance of activities and successful concerts made ' 75-’76 particularly good for the Chorale. Members worked throughout the year on plans for their spring tour, including fund-raising activities such as tag sales, an Amherst Record subscription drive, a raffle, and a cabaret-style dinner. The tour took them to Toronto, Canada, and cities in Michi- gan. There were other big events for the Chorale this year. Among these was the November Bach F’estival, in which they performed Bach’s Canta- tas 78 and 131 and Motet VI. Brandenburg Con- certo no. 4 was also performed. Another event was the spring concert in which the Chorale and Cho- rus performed the Mozart Requiem. The two groups also participated in a Bicentennial program of Thompson’s Frostiana, a setting of Robert Frost s poems commissioned by the town of Am- herst for its own Bicentennial. All in all, it was a year of work, friendship, and fun. Chorale 1ST ROW: T Picha, D Ford, J Fagerson, E Hart. R Gunner, G Motts, A Dorman, T Hancock, K Carlson, B Skelly, D Smith.

Well, we are a small group of students and faculty which studies and performs ear- ly music. Members both sing and play early instruments such as the recorder in concerts which concentrate on solo and ensemble performance. The Collegium gave four concerts this year, the first of which was a December program of Medieval and Renaissance Christmas mu- sic, followed by a performance of late sixteenth and early seven- teenth century music in Febru- ary. A concert of Medieval mu- sic was given in March, and a Renaissance program complete with Renaissance dance was giv- en in June. ’75-’76 brought members of the male sex into the Chorus, which for many years had been made up entirely of girls. This increased interest made it possible for the group to perform a much wier range of music. The Chorus performed Buxtehude’s In Dulci Jubilo and a setting of madrigals, and Hammerschmidt’s Heilig ist der Herr in a joint concert with the Chorale. Other joint concerts with the Chorale were the Bicentennial concert, and the performance of the Mozart Requiem. A good and eager group,” said Mr. Nehus of this year’s Orchestra. Good because eighteen strings were accepted into Western Mass. District Orchestra, and five were recommended for All-state competition. Eager because a significant number of violinists volunteered to switch to viola to fill the gap left by graduation, which enabled the gr oup to obtain a good balance of sound. Orchestra members were joined weekly by severat Band members to give the group experience playing in both string and full orchestras. The Orchestra gave several concerts during the year, and also planned an exchange concert. 1975-76 was a revolutionary year for the Student Council. P ' or the first time ever no elec- tions were held for positions on the student government. All re- presentatives were voluntary, so the council was no longer a pop- ularity contest. That being the case, Karen Dzendolet and Pam Schwartzberg were elected co- chairpersons for the year. The Cross Country team dominated most meetings. We have contin- ued to forge forward, meeting problems as they come and try- ing to make the school into a better place. Student Council — 1ST ROW (L — R) — L, Kroon, P Ford, K. Dzendolet, P.

P Healy Tbe Soccer Team accomplished in 1975 many many things which seemed in August to be just dreams. By season’s end, statistics showed Amherst 10-11 in Hampshire League play, good for first place. From there it was on to Granby and Southwick for tournament games. Against Minnechaug, Marty White brought Amherst back from a 1-0 halftime deficit with 2 fourth-quarter goals. He netted 18 goals and 5 assists to break Dave Penza’s scoring record. We outscored opponents 48-27, and amassed 36 goals to opponent’s 13 during a ten game stretch. Lineman White was named to the Hampshire League All Star team, as were Tri-Captain John Vassallo at center half, center fullback Chris Collins, and goalie John Gallagher. Forward Dalton made 1st team as utility player. On the right side of the field, winger Tom Porter, halfback and Tri-captain Aaron Britt and fullback Craig Merrill made the 2nd team All-League squad. Rounding out the starters were Ricky “Tardo” Lambert at fullback. Bob Ackerman at half, and left wing Dave Porter, a sophmore with the hardest shot on the team. The ’Canes earned a reputation for coming from behind all season to pull out games. Coach Tom Gralinski also earned his team a reputation among league referees and coaches for having the most skilled and cleanest team in the league. " Gra” shaped soccer at A.R.H.S. from 2-10 (1973) to an 11-2-1 overall record in 75. The Varsity Team was a success not only for its won lost record, but because of the atmosphere which surrounded practices games. All the players were dedicated, but informality was the rule, as team members and coaches spent more time and energy “screwing around’’ than actually practicing. Coach Gralinski’s attitude was responsible for this. If there was one credo which could be assigned to the team, it was, “Do your best, but never let success get in the way of having a good time.” V Soccer — 1ST ROW - C. Britt, J.

T Gralinski (Coach) For the 1st time since 1959 the Football Team claimed the Intercounty League Crown for themselves. Another cham- pionship won by the Canes was “The Western Central Super Bowl Division III Title.” We boasted a fine 9-10 record. The 9 wins were a school record for most wins in one season. The only loss came to the Suburban League powerhouse of Long- meadow. Because of our dominance of the Intercounty League during the last few years, we will move up to a more challenging Surbaban League next year. Our season had several highpoints. One of these was the 13-0 win over Turners Falls. During that game Tony Glenn intercepted a desperate Turners touchdown pass at the Hurri- canes’ 1 yard line and returned it 99 yards for a Amherst T.D. Another one was Jamie “Swivel Hips ” Koehler ' s 74 yard scramble across the field at Frontier. The hard hitting defense was very strong and only allowed Intercounty League Foes 27 points in 8 games, including 5 shutouts. While the explosive running attack of the offense ran up a total of 173 points in 8 games. Amherst dominated the All-League team by placing 8 men on it out of 22. Making the team on offense was Matus ko at Tackle, Progulske at Fullback, Glenn at Halfback and Bak at Guard. Offensive honorable mentions were Barr at Center and Koehler at Halfback. On the defensive All-League team were Matusko at Defen- sive Tacke, Progulske at Middle Linebacker, Glenn for De- fensive Halfback and Drake at Outside Linebacker. Honor- able mentions were Barr at Defensive End and Powers for Placekicker. The Canes will have many returning lettermen to be led by Tri-captains Tim Winslow and the Bobsie twins, Peter Bak and Chuck Drake. The ’Canes spirits are high for their audition into their new league. Who knows what great heights we will reach in ’77? Football — 1ST ROW (L — R) J. Koehler.

The Pit and the Pendulum (A cross-country tragicomedy in four movements.) Prologue: (August) 102 degrees at midnight — Bill and Ed are still hanging around — It is summer and thoughts turn to running and fame. Ric says he’ll start to train next week . . . Bonsignore can’t be found. Ah, youth! The slap of new shoes on old roads, carbon-monoxide in the air, team workouts, pizza, the good life. Act 1: (midseason, in the pit) Call me Smitty. Ric leans back in his chair as Bonsignore stares icily at his cards. Whitney is standing in a corner. Jer seems nervous; there is tension in the air. Suddenly a huge figure looms in the doorway. All the pent up frustration explodes as the intruder is recognized: “Crowley, turn off the lights, three jacks!’’, the mob cries. Crowley. The word takes on sinister meaning. Crowley. Like some wierd incantation. The lights go off and pandemonium ensues. Act 2: (The same, a week later) In a sudden blow to the team, Waldo’s right leg falls off. " We re still very much in contention.” No room to move . . . Joe begins his struggle with his locker. Greg and Tim trade banalities as the room starts spinning. A dream: In the center of a vast colliseum, soldiers, dressed in blue and gold, stand guard. A gate, inscribed simply “A Lark ”, is opened and a hideous monster emerges. It has the body of a vega and a green face with sunglasses. I run for my life into a crowd . . . there is a presentation going on. “For the fourth year in a row, the award goes to . . . Carl Ackerman!’’ 1 am falllingg, falling down Turner’s hill. I wake up. My mind refuses to clear . . . Joe is still working at his task. ACT 3: (Franklin Park) We six are herded into a narrow slot where we will begin the race. It is very cold. Pete and Dave are quiet, Ric and I are in a pre-race trance. I can’t tell about Jer and ’Signore. Bruce takes our sweats, then, confusion; I want this thing over. (Anything for some warmth) We tense on the line, 200 of us . . . the years pass . . . the start — up a hill — swept along with a mass of runners — sprint if we can — finish . . . with no victory. Nothing matters right now. I’ll think about it later. ACT 4: (The finale: a party somewhere, under a table) A case! A case! Ric becomes philosophical . . . Bonsignore laughs offensively . . . Pete says something unintelligible and unheard . . . Whitney and Smitty play ping-pong. There are too many people here. “Distracted from distraction by distraction ”, I mumble. What have we don“? Something, I guess. This is how it all ends: Bonsignore gets lost and is never heard from. Ric and Pete are lost as Ric’s volkswaon disintegrates in a collision with a Venmobile. Waldo tears himself into pieces, Dave picks on someone too big and Jer jumps off a library. That’s all there is.

The team finished 3rd in their league with a 9-5 record. Strong defensive play was responsible for our good record. The outlook for 77 is bright as only “KC " gradu- ates. Peggy Barber and Sherry Collins were the scoring leaders. Carol V ' anderzwaag and Paula Moss the top re- bounders. The youngest J.V. in A.R H.S. history, 8 ninth graders plus 4 upper classmen, compiled a 6-8 record. Coach Mary Ann Shea did an excellent job of bringing along a team that had played very little basketball. Debbie Vlach and Sheila Gettier led the scores. X ' arsity Swimming In their first season of B division competition, the Hur- ricane swimmers had an excellent season. Their 8-6 re- cord was good for second place behind Chicopee Comp, and thev fared equally well in Western Mass., State, and Ne« England competition. The team is a young one, with onl three seniors, all freestylers. Rich Fay, Jim Cook, and Peter Ziomek all had fine seasons and will be missed. Between them and the rest of the team eight school re- cords were broken this season. Bill Tyler, with six records, and Steve Peene, with four, will both return, along with four juniors, five sophomores, three freshmen, and three eight graders. This should provide Coach Jim O ' Donnell with the nucleus of another fine season next vear. Swim Team T Halpin, S Peene. J OH)k, B Tyler. J W ilf. N Shifflett. 2ND. R Kay. P Zlom k, R (iere, E.

Special paise should go to (,oach Tom Styspeck and his assistant Al Jacque for putting together a team that defied most pre-season predictions w hich placed then no higher than third.

Seniors John V ' assallo, John Bonsignore an l C-o-captain Peter C.hametzky with his spectacular shooting, Vassallo with his ball handling, quickness and defense and Bonsignore w ho could spell either one with equal competence. The big meit on the team were juniors. Jack (diandler. Bob Flood, Jeremy Lyon, and Senior Chris Collins. Chandler was a dominating rebounder and excellent inside .scorer. Bob Flood was an aggressive and quick defensive player. Lyon was a good streak shooter. Collins was an aggressive hustler. Once again the Hampshire League championship returned to the proper place at the close of another exciting season. TOP; A Penza STANDING; D Rmilanger; D Johnson, K Silva; I. Mascis SITTING; D Fang.

Despite having a disappointing final record, the hockey team had several bright spots and the outlook is good for the next year. They w ere rarely outclassed in any games and did quite well against the stronger Springfield teams. Very few of their losses were by more than one goal, and the younger players on the team gained a great deal of experience for next year. Senior Tri-captains Al Progulski, Scott Ambs, and Carl Bergquist will be greatly missed next year. Carl Bergquist and Ambs were the leading scorers, while Gray played several great games in goal. If he didn’t get all-league, he certainly deserved it, as he kept the skaters in many games. Coach John Gallagher hopes the returning underclassmen will provide him with as many good games as these players did, and hopefully a better record. 1ST ROW: S. Reynolds. M, MacPherson; B.

Griswold, Gymnastics — Despite illnesses and injuries throughout the season, the girls’ gymnastics team managed to finish off with a respectable 6-, 5 record and a fourth place in Western Mass. League. In dual meet competition senior co-captains Ka- ren Bak and Janet Boothryod, and Betty and Becka Ludtke anchored the line-up with help from Me- lissa Kim, Tracy Drew, Vicky Wheeler, Martha Boluch, Beth Ostendarp, Alice Coty, and Kate Holmes. In the Western Mass, meet the team was pre- sented with a trophy in recognition of being unde- feated over the past three years on balance beam. .Amherst also had two individual winners in this event. Betty Ludtke took third place and Janet Boothroyd was sixth. Qualifiers for the state meet this year were Janet Boothroyd, And Betty and Becka Ludtke. For the first time since the high school gymnas- tics team was initiated four years ago, coach Ruth Mor.se will be losing some team members. They are seniors Janet Boothroyd, Karen Bak, and Mar- tha Boluch. Ms. Morse will look to Lisa McClellan, Lucy Smith, and Lauria Laverdiere to help make next vear’s season a winner. M LaClaire, D.

Palmer, Wrestling This years wrestling team had the most successful season in the history of Amherst High School. “C oach” George Ireland, in his 2nd year, took the experience the team had and shaped them into a winning combi- nation. With 9 returning letterman, the grapplers pasted their best record ever with a 13-4 mark. Losing only one match in their division, they were co-champions along with Granby and Quabbin. Led by co-captains Bob Lord at 134 lbs. and Dave Whitney at 114 lbs, the Hurrican munutemen broke the previous best record of 9-6 by mid-season with a win over Putnam. They put on a fine showing against powerful Westfield and lost by one point to Western Mass, runnerup Granby. Seniors who will be missed next season are: Dan Ford at 100 lbs., Randy Phillips at 121 lbs, John Gawienowski at 157 lbs. and Jim Barr at 169 lbs. However, the outlook is good for the next year with five returning starters and a strong nucleus on the J.V. squad. Ski Team This season has proved to be a disappointing one for the ARHS men of the mountains. Our ski team had hoped to mop up the Western Mass. A Division this ear. Unfortunately, there were a few too many bad breaks. The team suffered many unnecessary losses because of the absence of key racers. The showmen posted a 9-4-1 record, not bad, but it isn ' t what could have been accomplished. The ski team consists of: seniors; Nick Cournoyer, Charlie Dodge, John Fenton, Don Fisk, Ron LaVerdiere, Mike Mascis, Steve Pitkin, juniors; Ralphanzo Gunner, Craig (B.T.) Manning, Dave Norden, John Robinson, sophmores; Paula Du- gan, Karen LaVerdiere. The racers are coached by that illustrious Mark s Meadow gym teacher, John Gushing. Now that the season is over, we must look back and remember the seniors. Fentuchilay fell too often. LaVerdiere broke too many pairs of skis. Pitkin was up singing in the chairlift. Mascis never showed up to practice. Dodge was talking himself into the Olympics. Fisk was off working at the bank. Gour- noyer was recovering from his trip to Stowe. It’s A Thing Called . .
