Harrell We, the students of the Austin school, nineteen hundred and sixty-six, respectfully dedicate our yearbook, the Em- bla, to you, our headrnaster, Mr. Charles Harrell. In your position as headmaster you have given us guidance, conso- lation, and unforgettable knowledge, in this, our first year. 4 Q 47 , - cz ' U 3 fag Q T9 ' :J F in ff 0 xg J Q Q U J Ci 0 0 Q Q Q' ag i D ax: A Q J' 'sul 7 .94 ' X P V H 0 if ld .x as ' -' Q 8 I u s ,, ,s p F sv 1 I I 0 - . , 0 e tu ents ' 'T Th S d I 9 I ' ix 4 One of Michelangelo's greatest masterpieces, the statue of David, stands at the end of Florence. The gallery is lined with the blocks upon which the sculptor prac- ticed his art, solid masses of rock from which portions of a human form emerge, sometimes only vaguely, sometimes more clearly, but never completely. There is a parallel between these efforts of the great Michelangelo and our own efforts to emerge into what may be a final form. There is a feeling of incompleteness in all of us and there is a feeling which indicates clearly that We bear within ourselves a sense that the form we might become is still struggling through primitive stages of development, and it is not yet clearer what we shall be. So it is with each of us, and so it is with Austin. Now that I am speaking for the first time to you after the first year of our devel- opment, I am certain you are aware of the deeper meaning of my illustration. It is easy enough to swell on the crudeness of the human form of the early efforts of Mi- chelangelog it is simple to speak of our follies and irrationalities as we strove to start the Austin ideav. Yet we know that this is not the whole picture, the impulse to perfect surges within us. We are trying to wrestle with the significance of what We have begun and in so doing become conscious partners with the creative process that will, in time, bring our potentialities to a greater and more perfect form. Each year at Austin will see the timeless renewal of those aspects of life that are as sure as the returning spring. At Austin the great effort is to free ourselves from the illusion that we are isolated spectators of life and that we can join in the song of life as a song of livingf' There is no need for me to tell those of you who read these words of the Austin ideaf, You have lived it. And so we have tried to bring the idea to form, not the final and finished form for that probably will never come unless there is a final and finished miracle of miracles. To those of you who now leave Austin, we have shared something that is too deeply rooted in our lives to be permanently suppressed, it is the Austin idea that responsibility is the handmaiden of freedom, that education is an end in itself. The year is over and to paraphrase Camus: In the middle of the winter we learned at last that we have within us an invincible Summer. In that invincibility lies our hope Come back again. You have left part of yourselves here and you have taken a part of us with you. 5 u-any MAIORIE ALBERTH French, Latin . . . NATALIE BERNSTEINg Gym . . . A.B., A.B., St. Iosephis College.

V109 L,f0C'U QSM' W GAC uU A A Short Subjects of the First Semester September 16, 1965 commemorated the day on which the Austin School made its debut. Thirty- seven exuberant young minds organized themselves into the busy schedule. The first two days were filled with tests, and everyone was busy makin new acquaintances. The following Monday classes Be an in complete confusion but all troubles were quicily ironed out by the efficient Headmaster. The heat became unbearable and classes were moved out on the back lawn. Pupils were joined by Dudley, the Harrell's well-meanin cat. A steering committee for the organization og the Student Government As- sociation was set up, its members being Lida Ells- worth, Barbara Leavitt, Carol Lavitt, Lorin Ber- nert, Andrea Shiffres, and Blair Patch. They quickly established the very beginnings of the political whirlv at Austin. Beatrice Oshana and friend's were removed from Mr. McGurk's class, Dudley grew larger and Linda Keeney worried. It became apparent in October that the corner drugstore was going to have a much greater profit with the opening of the Austin School. Blair Patch bought Cpopcorn every day for En lish class and manage to get away with it for awfiile by feeding Miss Friedle, The Code of Behavior Committee - Dulinda Mather, Barbara Leavitt, joan Rosenblatt, Cathy Wiesner, Maggie Hodes, judy Lockwood, and Debbie Westfall - quickly put an end to all mi- nor offenses. Lida Ellsworth received a National Mer- it Scholarship commendation and two new faces were added to the pre-prep section: Carol Green and Amy Willets. They were eagerly welcomed into the group,'. With the discovery of just what a McGurk was, Caryl Armstrongis imagination went wild. The result was a group of what you might call stories with hidden meanings. Ijloan Bosenblatt ob- tained her driver's license ljust ow we shall proba- bly never knowj along with a new red Mustang. Trouble did brew. In the elections for the Student Government Association, Lida Ellsworth became President, Carol Lavitt, Vice-President, and Mary Walsh, Secretary-Treasurer. They quickly got things going with the establishment of a committee to write a constitution. This committee included as members, Suzanne Crawford, Dulinda Mather, Car- ol Lavitt, Caryl Armstrong, Shelley Diamond, ja- nice Mogielnicki, Debby Gample, and Signe Milner. At the end of a month some of us were confronted with a problem while others were presented with a place on the Honor Roll for the first quarter. Beatrice Oshana and friends were removed from Mr. McGurk,s class, Dudley grew bigger and Linda Keeney worried. The Student Activities Association was organized with the election of oflicers for the year. Suzanne Crawford was elected president, Shelley Diamond vice-president, Lorin Bernert secretary, and Signe Milner treasurer. Along with the social activities committee of Linda Keeney, Barbara Leavitt, Mar- garet Hodes, Mary Walsh, and Alice Lavitt, they planned an open house to acquaint the parents with the school. On November llth the At Home was held. Linda Mather was presented with the keys to own Comet convertible. A present from her par- ents, it has provided ample transportation to Cape Cod. A re resentative from josten's visited the S.A.A. and ffie S.A.C. and a school ring was chosen. Beatrice Oshana and friends were removed from Mr. McGurk's class. Dudley grew bigger, and Linda Keene worried. With the arrival of December lst, a trip to Bos- ton was taken by most of the students. The group toured the Museums of Science and Fine Arts and Harvard Square in the morning, spent the afternoon shopping, and concluded the day with an oriental dinner at the Cathay House in Chinatown. juniors and Seniors took the College Board exams at Mount St. joseph Academy and joan Rosenblatt managed to arrive on time. Music and Art appreciation con- vened and the art group traveled to the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, where they observed relics of the Egyptian period. The Christmas festivities began with the French Club party, as French carols filled the English room. The special guest was none other than our own Mr. Harrell . . . outfitted San- ta Claus style with beard and 'Joyeux Noelf, The last Ho! Ho! Ho! was shouted Fri ay December 17th, the day of the school Christmas party, amidst the grab bag and punch and ice cream. The clocks all screame twelve noon and the school emptied fast- er than it ever had before. Beatrice Oshana and friends were removed from Mr. McGurk's class. Du- dley grew bigger, and Linda Keeney worried. january 3rd was Black Monday for the returning vacationers. jayne Engel, Cathy Weisner, and ja- nice Rothstein returned with a dark Florida Tan. Everyone agreed we needed another vacation to recuperate from the previous one. Many new students had joined our merry crew, including Wendy Sweed- ler, jean Davis, Sue Druce, Diane Ludgin, Sandy Schnier, Lisa Channin, and Sue Goldstein. Books were opened reluctantly, Mr. McGurk gave de- tentions, joan and company called from gas sta- tions to relate astounding news of tardiness, and school lunches continue while the drug store business thrived. Dissections in the Biology de- partment began and squeamish pre-prepers turned into slaughterers under the direction of Wendy Allen. Rats, then worms, invaded the kitchen and bright young chemists brewed curious concoc- tions. Sue Crawford breathed easily as she received the school's first college acceptance. A small group of students took a trip to Sturbridge Vil- lage, while judy Piosenfield and the yearbook wailing to Mr. Quinn, Miss Friedle, and the rest. Beatrice Oshana and Friends were removed from Mc- Gurk's class. Dudley grew bigger, and Linda Keeney worried. EMBLA EDITORS L. Keeney, layout, B. Leavitt, literary, B. Revill, photographyg D.
