Mass. 44279 FOREWORD Deal gently with us, ye who read! Our largest hope is unfulfilled. The promise still outruns the deed, file tower, but not the spire, we build. These words by Oliver Wendell Holmes aptly express the position of the Class of 1965, for we are truly building for the future. As we watch the construction of the addition to our high school, we can clearly see the progress which has been made. At the same time, however, a less tangible devel- opment is occurring within the walls of the existing class- rooms: we are learning and preparing for our lives ahead. In the coming years, when we have emerged into our profes- sional lives, the spire will begin to crystallize. Therefore we offer as evidence of our progression this fourth volume of The Aegis.

LOIS LOPES Librarian East Longmeadow High School Very often our paths cross the path of an individual whose mark upon us is not immediately known. Such a per- son is the one to whom this book is dedicated. Service and knowledge are aspects of her life. The desire to help is uppermost in her mind along with a devotion to duty and standards of right conduct. To a member of the East Long- meadow High School staff who has contributed much to student academic growth within the school; to a friend and helper whose willingness to serve the needs of the students runs deep, we, the Senior Class of East Long- meadow High School, dedicate this Fourth Volume of The Aegis to Mrs. Lois Lopes, School Librarian, in recog- nition for all that she has done for us. The general work of a librarian is never easy. Stamp- ing books is an end- less chore. 4 The girders of the new addition to the High School exemplify the idea that we build for the future not only in steel but through learning as well. ADMINISTRATION and STAFF Ah, to build, to build! That is the noblest art of all the arts! Longfellow As members of the faculty and administration of East Longmeadow High School, you are indeed builders, builders of knowledge, of discipline, and of tradition. Your role is very important for through the consolidation of your many fields of concentration, you are able to guide us up the ladder, placing our hands firmly on each new rung. Under the influence of your instruction and leadership, the summit, the pinnacle of our ladder, broadens and takes on new dimensions. In the years to come, when the attainment of our goal becomes clearer to us, when the summit of our ladder becomes less obscured by the dizziness of its height, we will say in retrospect “they budded better than they knew.” 5 MR.

THE BUILDERS Nothing has served to bring the theme of The Aegis for 1965 home to the Senior Class than the actual building of the new wing for the school. As these pictures show, there is much work to con- struction whether it be a building or an education. That the construction of both this structure and education are closely related is strengthened by this picture of not only those men who planned the physical building but also those who created its edu- cational program. These pictures should preserve the record of actual construction for the new wing and it is only fitting that they should be included in The Aegis as a part of the record of the Senior Class which wishes to remember this building in all its different aspects. Some of the Builders and Planners: From the left, Mr. George Siddell, Mr. Ralph Herrick, Supervisor of Buildings, Mr. Robert Jarvis, Superin- tendent of Schools, Mr. Charles Bowler, Clerk of the Works, Mr. Evert Lindgren, Mr. Carl Lindwall and Mr. Archibald MacNeish of Alderman and MacNeish, Architects and Engineers. 6 The foundations for the new pool.

SENIORS Heaven is not reached in a single bound; But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies, And we mount to its summit round by round. J. G. Holland As members of the graduating class, we are aware that we have not attained the ultimate in life, hut rather that we have merely completed a round of the ladder and we are now groping upward for the next. Twelve years ago we raised a small hand to grasp timidly the first round, and, moving upward, our intellectual and social horizons broad- ened; our grasp on life became more solid. Frequently we faltered, the upper round all but obscured from our view, but somehow we always managed to move upward, always managed to continue. Looking backward now as seniors, the ladder seems steep, but then, as we glance up toward the inscrutable summit, we realize the great amount of hard work as well as the great degree of perseverence that will be required of us if we are to attain the pinnacle. As we move through life and as we mount the ladder round by round, let us remember that when we build, we build forever. 11 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1965 On June 13, 1962, vve, the Class of 1965 graduated from Birchland Park School with the impression that we were completing a por- tion of our lives and education. The follow- ign September, however, as we timidly entered East Longmeadow High School, we realized that our graduation months before had not been a termination of anything but rather a beginning, an introduction to a new and higher form of life and learning. Our first move toward the organization of our class as soph- omores was the election of class officers: Harry McGill, president; Stephen Brega, vice-presi- dent; Joyce Biekley, secretary; Jack Brock, treasurer; and Maureen Fox. member-at-large. Class advisors were Mr. David Nevin and Miss Gail Franzen. Our first activity was a dance, Club 65 ' ’, featuring a floor show by talented members of all three classes. The remainder of the year was spent in ordering class rings and in preparing to take the big step forward into our junior year. In May, elections for junior class officers were held with Harry Mc- Gill elected president; Carl Rydell, vice-presi- dent; Nancy Ferguson, secretary; Kenneth Farrell, treasurer; and Maureen Fox, member- at-large. The advisors for our class for the junior year were Mr. Robert Gosende and M iss Gail Franzen. As juniors, we were thrilled to receive our class rings, signifying that we were truly a part of the growing tradition of East Long- meadow High School. During the winter, we sponsored a tobogganing party at the Fran- Mr. Francis Dutille Mrs. Valerie Cole Class Advisor Class Advisor conia Golf Course. As the “As Schools Match Wits” team went on the air, juniors Carolyn Lopes and Randolph Dominic joined veteran seniors Glenn Curtis and Carolyn Maclntire in winning some thrilling games. The whole clasi soon began to look forward to the Junior Prom. With “April in Paris” as the theme, the committees settled down to some planning and hard work. Heading these committees were Carl Rydell, general chairman; Nancy Fer- guson, entertainment; Maureen Fox, invita- tions; Melanie Rockwood and Una Roberts, decorations; Karen Silverman, publicity; Guy Lindwall and Kenneth Farrell, tickets; and Charles Williams, refreshments. Finally, on April 18, 1964, the big night arrived and we found a small part of Paris in our gaily dec- orated gym. Here we crowned Nancy Waide prom queen; her court consisted of Maureen Fox and Jill Orsini. In May, twenty-two mem- bers of our class were inducted into the Na- tional Honor Society. They were Mary Ar- lotta, Linda Burr, Judith Creeger, Randolph Dominic, Nancy Ferguson, Gary Howe, Sarah Ives, Lorraine Kapinos, Jane Kjoller, Carolyn Lopes, William Mailler, Victoria Miller, Donna Pariseau, Bruce Ramey, Melanie Rock- wood, Ramon Rosati, Joan Schmidt, Katherine Osterman, Gail Smith, Russell Snow, Martha Strandberg, and Nancy Waide. This organiza- tion chose the following officers: Gary Howe, president; Nancy Ferguson, vice-president; Jane Kjoller, secretary; and Bruce Ramey, treasurer. As the year drew to a close, we held our final class elections, selecting Walter Arnos, president, Nancy Ferguson, vice-presi- dent; Maureen Fox, secretary, Kenneth Far- rell, treasurer; and Patricia Pellegrino, mem- ber-at-large. Junior marshals Guy Lindwall and Walter Amos led the graduating class of 1964 to their seats, and we realized, perhaps for the first time, the enormity of what lay Ire- fore us. September came at last, and although many of us could not believe it, we were really sen- iors, white hats and all. We immediately found ourselves faced with the task of electing a new president as Walter Amos had moved during the summer. Barry Stephens was elected to the post and class advisors Mr. Francis Dutille and Mrs. Valerie Cole were appointed. We started the year by sponsoring a dance in tribute to fall sports. The dance was under the leadership of Charles Powell, chairman of the Senior Activities Committee, a committee that includes Teddy Pieczarka, Joyce Bickley, Raymond Senecal, Edward Milroy, and Jack Brock. Our “As Schools Match Wits” team was again active with sen- iors Randolph Dominic, Jane Kjoller, and William Barry being joined by Stephen Nel- mes, a junior. National Merit Scholarship Nancy Ferguson Vice President Grade Twelve Past Secretary Kenneth Farrell Treasurer of the Senior Class Harry McGill Past President Grade Ten awards were announced, Randolph Dominic being named a semi-finalist, and Jane Kjoller, Gail Smith, Carolyn Lopes, Katherine Oster- man, Nancy Ferguson, Victoria Miller, Gary Howe, and Ramon Rosati receiving letters of commendation. As we look forward to the completion of this our most important year, we realize that the responsibilities and opportunities of the past have helped us build the class we are, thus enabling us to face the additional respon- sibilities and opportunities which the future may hold in store for us. In the tradition of all Aegis histories, we hope that “this history, coupled with the pictures and copy in this book, will serve to hold for us always the bright memories of these ‘our days of days’.” Carolyn Lopes JOHN BROCK ROSEMARY BRODEUR Hockey 10, 11, Captain 12; Soccer 10; Baseball 11; Track 12; Dramatics 11, 12; Chefs Club 12; Class Treasurer 10.

Spartans look upon the Junior Prom as the end of one year and the beginning of that last big year. For these reasons it is included in the Senior Album as a reminded of the fond memories of that eventful night. Our Class theme was “April in Paris” and the gym was transformed into the Champs Elysee through the skillful artistry of Una Roberts and Someone always notices the camera. Melanie Rockwood and their energetic Decorating Committee. Music was by Phil Kaplan and his orchestra provided by Nancy Ferguson who was Chairman of the Entertainment Committee. The success of the Prom was due in no small part to the efforts of gracious Guy Lindwall and his ticket sellers. Because of their efforts the Prom was a financial and social success. The major highlight of the evening was the coro- nation of the Prom Queen, Nancy Waide, and Prom Princesses were Maureen Fox and Jill Orsini.

UNDERCLASSES Too low they build, who build beneath the stars. Young Growth is the only evidence of life, and now that we must part to fulfill our destiny, to reach upward for the next round of the ladder, you who remain shall grow and build. The school to which you will return in September will be a place of both mental and physical growth. Not only will you have stepped upward to become seniors and juniors, but you also will have expanded into a new build- ing. It will not only be your responsibility to build the image and tradition of East Longmeadow High School as a four year institution, but also it will be your duty to take the hand of the entering freshmen and sophomores and place it firmly upon the rung of the ladder. The pinnacle of your ladder differs greatly from that of those who have gone before, but you must press upward, ever striving for that ultimate round, and in this way you will truly prepare and build for the future.

Matthew 7 :25 Activities, both athletic and non-athletic, are essential to the life of both the student and the school. That we have already built a strong extracurricular program is evidenced by the story told on the following pages. East Longmeadow High School, however, is changing physically, and as it grows, so vyill its traditions. We, the last class graduating from ELHS as a three year school, hope that the succeeding classes will continue to build a firm foundation of tradition within the school that it may continue to have a sense of continuity, a direction for its movements. May these pages lend to you, the present and future students, the inspiration needed to build tradition for the future. The stairs are the center of the school and they are the channel through which the life of ELHS flows in its daily performance of duty. 45 THE BEST WAY TO SEE A SCHOOL To see a school one must view it at first very generally and then later more specifically. This section proposes to view the school life of ELHS in just a way going on a picture tour depicting ELHS in action. Centers of activity will be visited and inside and outside activities will be seen. As an innovation, the sports section which in the past has been a separate section of the yearbook has been made an integral part school life for through its activities and sports, ELHS encourages youth to build their personal lives for the future. The business classrooms are a source of much activi ty. Here Mrs. Robertson helps a student with her typing. One of the most popular gathering places in ELHS is the Home Economics Suite. In this area students learn the fundamentals of sewing and cooking, skills which build one’s abilities as a skillful homemaker for the future. A good close-up of Home Ec. students. This is Button-hole stitching. 46 WHAT IS CLASSROOM ACTIVITY? The classroom is the source of all things for all students. Basically it is a learning center where knowledge is passed on. Whether it is sewing, dis- secting, building or filing, the know- ledge learned in the classroom helps the student to build for the future. Above, right, Students in biology classes learn the intricate parts of animals and lower forms of life. Middle, dissection is not limited to boys alone. The young ladies learn too. Lower, right. Industrial arts furthers interest in creative abilities among young men. Here care of tools and shop equipment is important. Above, courses in model house construction offer opportunities for budding builders to make dreams become realities. Above, these men may never become painters. Perhaps they will never fie contractors, but they will know to beware shortcuts when they build homes of their own. One of several faces of the Cafeteria. This is a study. Ou young ladies dance to the strains of the “Miserlou”. A general view of the art room showing the morning class busily at work on program covers for “Spartanum Spectac- ulum IV”. The Mechanical Drawing Room and budding artists at work. The busiest places in which large numbers of stu- dents gather are the activity centers of the school. Although the auditorium in which dramatics holds forth is the most important activity center other areas of the building deserve to be considered as well. The art room is always a source of inspiration to the visitor, painting, sculpture, and other student-created works of art issuing forth in abundance. Closely allied with art is mechanical drawing, a practical art. From the mechanical drawing room has come marvelous examples of building and school- house construction with many of the projects being shown in the exhibit cases in the entryways. The high degree of professionalism of these projects is a testi- mony to the efforts of both teachers and students. The gym is always active and just a quick look into either side of the room will verify the statement. For the girls folk dancing is a well-liked activity dur- ing the winter, while a very active intramural pro- gram is offered the boys. As we build for the future, these programs will be augmented by the addition of swimming in the new pool which is soon to be finished. When is a cafeteria not a cafeteria? Although this question is good it can be answered easily. “When it is a study hall.” Since the beginning of the year major study periods have been held in the cafeteria, which provides a fine place for learning funda- mentals which are the foundation for the future. The music room is a source of song and enjoy- ment to the school. The stirring choral works which are heard at the Christmas Assembly and at the Music- Night Program are the results of long hours of work put in by the students and faculty in this room. I 1 s ACTIVITY CENTERS all Above, Part of the Glee Club in rehearsal. This is the beginning of the sound of music. li Below, EL youth in search of wisdom. N. The library is the center of intellectual activity for the school. Here among works of literature and reference the students of ELHS prepare the number- less term papers required by the faculty. The con- ference rooms of the library also are the scene of much planning for school activities. The languages laboratory activates student interest in modern foreign languages, Spanish, French, Kus- sian and German. Here the student learns the lan- guage through repetition of the native sounds of that language. These are some of ELHS’ many activity centers. They are the focal points of our school’s life. Above, Some of our young ladies on wings of song. Below, Aqui se habla el Espanol. 49 Above, that was the lunch that was. Right, Bubble, Bubble, toil and trouble, cauldron burn . . . WHAT’S FOR LUNCH? This question is often asked at ELHS. The answer occupies the center of every school day. Based around an activity period which lasts seventy-five minutes starting at 1 1 :31 and ending at 12:45. the lunch program is filled with fun and earnest activity. This time provides not only an opportunity for the students to relax during the course of the day and to visit with their friends hut also an opportunity to participate in the school’s many func- tions.

OUR MAJOR ACTIVITIES The Aegis Glen Gamache, Willard Hick and Guy Lindwall look over some pictures prior to inclusion in the Aegis. In a year-long activity such as The Aegis much tribute should be given to the few who saw this book through from the idea stage to the actual reality of a bound book. These Seniors worked long and hard hours to produce this yearbook and they should he remembered for their patience and effort. To Guy Lind- wall, Business Manager, for raising needed revenues in the face of great obstacles; to Carolyn Lopes for writ- ing much copy and patiently proof- reading it in her duties as Literary Editor; to Jeffrey Bosworth, Artist, for his litie work; to Willard Hick. Senior Editor, for his Senior Sec- tion layout; to Verna Rainey, for Senior Quotations; to Glen Gama- che, Sports Editor, for organizing and producing the Sports Section; to Steve Clarke for General Assist- ance; lastly, to Ramon Rosati ed- itor-in-chief for encouragement and help in the book, especially the school life section; to all of these should go the thanks of the Senior Class for producing a lasting record of their final years at ELHS. Verna Rainey and Steve Clarke make comments on organization to the Most Worthy Advisor. Literary Editor Carolyn Lopes and artist Jeffrey Bosworth assisted by Ed Haskins comment on the photographer as he takes their picture. Ramon Rosati and Ed Haskins disagree in a gentlemanly way over the sports lay- out. It didn’t matter.

The paper also includes interviews, special awards notations, and other areas of school life and activities unable to be covered in detail by The Aegis. Faculty Advisor is Miss Judith Sessler. Editor is Rickey Yosko; Assistant Editor, Vicky Miller; Literary Editor; Peter Bergeron. Steve Kratovil is the photographer. Above left, C. Rourke, Business Editor, R. Yosko, Editor, and V.

The Chef’s Club under the advisor- ship of Miss Barbara Condron has come through a second year without a major kitchen disaster. The purpose of the club is to teach young men cook- ing without the customary culinary upsets which occur when a man is let loose in the kitchen. Much patience and hard work has gone into this activ- ity and the size of the groups shows its popularity. The two sections are officered by the following Seniors; Tuesday section, Ralph Duncan and Frank Fois; Thursday section, Harry McGill and Joe Bell. Lower left, Steve Clarke muses on the possibility of garlic bread. J f Above, Larry Markham ac- tually sees what’s cooking. Left, One of the advantages of this activity is eating the profits.

In addition to keeping projectors running and furnishing films, filmstrips, projectors, record players and other media of instruc- tion to the staff, the group has also learned to catalogue materials and supplies and to serve in Wheeler Auditorium for dramatic events and talent shows. This group is “Johnny on the spot” when it comes to helping teachers out. Right, Dave White makes like an AV “Steve Savage”. Above, The AV Director in action.

In action in the Fall 56 CHEERLEADERS WORK HARD TO BUILD SCHOOL SPIRIT The unsung heroes of ELHS are the Cheerleaders who are at work daily to perfect routines which are used at the games during the entire school year. The chief purpose of the group is to build school spirit. For this they are to be thanked. Their unselfishness and generosity in giving of their time to the school is noteworthy. In addition to learning many cheers, several new ones each year, the girls have to learn precise routines to fit the cheers. This requires much patience and practice. In addition to appearing at all the home games, the Cheerleaders appear in a skit each year in “Spartanum Specta- culum”. Their act is always new and re- freshing and a tribute to their ingenuity and hard work. Their advisor Miss Marina Herschuk deserves a vote of thanks for en- couraging the girls in their efforts and for working with them many long hard hours. Oh, how I hate to get up in the morning.

Among the various musical organizations are the band, advised by Mr. Joseph Charron, the chorus, glee club, choir, Gayblades, Charmers, ad- vised by Mrs. Margaret Corliss. The sounds of music are heard everyday throughout the building and the students of the school who participate or who just listen are the better for it. The Gayblades: From the left, S. Nelmes, J.

Hart, has provided much activity during the school year. A Valentine’s Dance was held on February 13th and big plans are underway for the jointly sponsored activity with the Honor Society, “Spartanum Spectaculum.” The Student Government meets every Monday during the activity period to consider the problems which may arise during the school year influencing student life at ELHS.

The purposes of the club are many; to study the profession of teaching, its requirements and func- tions; to build student interest in the teaching profession; to build an improved image of the teaching profession in the minds of the local community and the general public; to encourage competent and highly qualified students to consider teaching as a first career. Officers are: President, Anne Fiore; Vice-President, Joyce Lindwall; Secretaries, Janice Smola and Jane McAuliffe; and Treasurer, Linda Maurer. President Anne Fiore opens a meeting of the F.T.A. The subject: Federal Aid to Educa- tion. Some future teachers listen to the presentation. 61 The Debating Team: Left to right: J. Smola, C. Swanson, E. Milroy, C. Wright, D. Smith, C. Powell, J.

DEBATING CLUB The primary aim of he Debate Club is to offer every interested student an opportunity to sharpen his reasoning process and his speaking skill through the medium of debate. Many interscholastic debates were held throughout the year and the group par- ticipated in many tournaments and symposia. Pres- ident of the group is Dana Smith; Secretary, Jane Bode; Treasurer, Ted Milroy. The group is ad- vised by Mrs. June Johnson assisted by Miss Cyn- thia Jienderson. All aboard for the debate. Miss Henderson hurries. STUDENT STORE One of the little-praised spots in the school is the Student Store, run by members of Student Government and Honor Society as a service to the members of East Longmeadow High School. In addition to the smaller sundries carried in stores of this sort, there is a good variety of paperbacked books which both students and faculty regularly purchase. One of the most popular stud ent items is term-paper covers which are in high demand throughout the year. The faculty’s most used item is red pens for cor- recting the term papers. Part of the staff of the Student Store: Left to right: J. Naylor, C. Hamlin, D. Melein. 62 Members of the Model Congress Club: Left to right, C. Lopes, D. Fisher, L. Butler. MODEL CONGRESS CLUB The members of this group are students interested in the workings of government. The club offers them the oppor- tunity to prepare bills which they feel are worthy of con- sideration by Congress. A highlight of the year was the mock election which was sponsored by this group. In this election, the students used the town’s voting machines and voted the actual tickets which the student s parents would vote a few days later. The group has participated in the Model Congress held at American International College this past Fall and it has been invited to New Rochelle College to participate in their Model Congress. Miss Cynthia Hen- derson deserves much praise for her advisorship of this group. Imperator Lawrence and group gather for the Saturnalia. 63 Standing, 1 to r: R.

LATIN CLUB “Gens Togata Gens Togata is an academic club that endeavors to whet the flagging interest in the Latin Language and in Roman Cus- toms. Plays are given in Latin and English. The custom of wearing the national cos- tume of ancient Rome, the tunic and toga, is observed at every meeting. The offices held are not unlike those of the Roman Republic, but presided over by an Emperor — a custom common to the Empire only. The purpose of the Gens Togata is to prove that Latin, at least the study and enjoyment of it, is not dead. The group is advised by Mr. James Lawrence. SPANISH CLUB LOS ESPARTANOS ESPANOLES In addition to furthering the development of spoken Spanish, the Spanish Club also offers a variety of filmed presentation to its members to show them the many aspects of Spanish national life. A Spring Fiesta was presented by the members in which the group hosted the Faculty and Administration. The French Club:. Front row, left to right, seated: Mrs. Alma Richards. Advisor; J. Becker. A.

The entire supervision, under the direction of Mr. James Grocott of the English Department was well received. The message of the play, that East and West do meet and that the West can possibly take from the East much benefit, is of importance today. The result of the melding of the two in the play is a paradise on earth. The cast of characters included: Conway, Gary Howe; Helen, Roberta St. Hill; High Lama, Richard Raimondi; Ruth- erford. Michael Rossi; Wyland, Steve Nelmes; Myra, Jean Zampicini; Elizabeth, Sue Roberts; Mallinson, Peter Bergeron; Miss Brinklow, Verna Rainey; Barnard, Bruce Hubbard; Chang, Carl Mottle; Lo Tsen, Mary Benis; Tashi, Susan Clark; Ai Ling, Jill Orsini.

It is only fitting that the first office to gain consideration is the Guid- ance Office. The “G.O.” is the place where we go when we are troubled about getting into college or find- ing a job or securing a scholar- ship. Many times we have to wait because there are so many other people with the same problems. Mr. Robert D. Camp Guidance Counselor Mrs. Ruby Waide Secretary to Mr. Sbindler Mr. Donald Emerson Director of Guidance Mrs. Agnes Livingstone Secretary to Mr. Sbindler Mrs. Margaret McGowan Guidance Secretary Many thanks go to Mr. Donald Emerson and Mr. Robert Camp for their work with us. Mrs. McGowan also deserves praise for her fine job in keeping everything running smoothly throughout a well-filled year. The Principal’s office, where we often get warm greetings is manned by Mrs. Livingstone and Mrs. Waide who have to put up with the many problems which come from dealing with students and teachers who are asking about millions of things from day to day. How f they do it we’ll never know. While we never really see the Superintendent’s stafT we know they are there and we want to thank them for keeping our fine school system functioning smoothly in all respects. Along with the office staff we would call attention to the Aides, both Office Aides and Library Aides whose wmrk is tiring but whose help is priceless.

This was the fourth campaign for the Spartans in the I Suburban League. During the first game of the season, the falcons of Minnechaug dominated play. Midway in the fourth period a 54 yard drive by the Spartans ended when the Spartans hounded in from the one for their only score of the day. On home ground against Classical the Spartans scored the first and last touchdowns ot the contest with the use of the deft pitch-outs. Between these flashes of offensive finesse the Bulldogs were able to score four times, twice capitalizing on interceptions. Plagued with offensive troubles, penalties and fumbles, the Spartan offensive machine was unable to get under way against South Hadley, Ludlow, and Enfield. Shining against only Enfield with a 75 yard T.D. sprint early in the game, the Spartans were scoreless against South Hadley and Ludlow. The Spartan defensive line proved im- pregnable at times but the opponents’ aerial attack proved deadly in all games. A Spartan is stopped. Coaching staff for the Spartans: left to right, R.

With the season coming to a close, the Spartan Offense was halted by the Lancers. Its only moment of glory was an 85 yard T.D. gallop. Strong line play with an adept secondary stopped the Lancers during the second half, but the Spartans were unable to counter the early surges of the Lancers. The final game of the season was against an unbeaten Palmer club. The Spartans entered the game heavy underdogs. There was a savage battle between the lines with the Panthers having the stronger of the running attacks. They were stopped several times within rapping distance of the Spartan goal. In the third quarter, the Spartan scoring machine swung into high gear with a spectacular 60 yard touchdown run. Capitalizing on an interception the Panthers scored but the determined Spartan line stopped the extra-point play leaving the Spartans with a slim one-point lead. Trying to run out the clock, the Spartans gave up the ball and the Panthers, taking ad- vantage, soon scored. The touchdown was nullified and the game ended with the Spartans coming up with the upset of the season. 69 C. Williams, Captain K. Farrell H. McGill W. Elliott mm S. Sovis. SQUAD G.

Bosworth SPARTAN BOOTERS HAVE A GOOD SEASON The East Longmeadow High School soccer team compiled an overall 5-7-4 record in its fourth year of varsity competition as a member of the Pioneer Valley Soccer League. Mr. Ralph Cooley, coach, worked the boys hard in practice everyday to get them in shape for this season. The Spartans lead by their captain, Paul Ouellette, picked the team up from where last years seniors left off and started the season off with a tie. At the end of the season the soccer team was tied for fifth place with West Springfield. Seniors leaving at graduation this year are: Paul Ouellette, Tom Taylor, Tim Moran, John Lightcap, Jeff Bosworth, Jim Hogan, Carl Rydell, Charles Powell, and Willard Hick. Willard suffered a leg injury early in the season and was unable to play in the games. With the returning Juniors and Sophomores, next year the Spartans should have another excellent season. Some of the returning players are: Ozzie Savaria, Steve Steitz, Barry Blaisdell, Mark Mullane, and Bob Latorell. This is the first year in the history of the East Longmeadow High School that there was an award for the most valuable player. Tom Taylor was selected by his teammates to receive the award this year. Congratulations, Tom, on contributing to the soccer team and to our school spirit. C. Rydell J. Lightcap T. Taylor J. Bell T. Moran 1965 SPARTAN HOOPSTERS THE 1965 SPARTAN BASKETBALL TEAM.

Led by co-captains Phil Belliveau and Steve Steitz the 1964-1965 Spartan Cagers finished fifth in Valley Wheel competition, completing a seven- nine card. Splitting two independent contests, the Spartans finished with an 8-10 overall record. In the opening contest of the season a long bomb on the final buzzer gave the Spartans a well-earned victory over Agawam. Under the able coaching of Mr. John S. Katsoulis, the Spartans continued the season experiencing many ups and downs. Losing the next four games after overpowering Ware, the Spartans finally bounced back with a spectacular i. Brega, B. Kennedy, T. Crary, K. Farrell, L. upset over Minnechaug defeating the Falcons 64- 59. The Spartans also stunned Ludlow, the Small School Champs, with a 69-60 victory. Three school records were established; Steve Steitz tossed 37 points setting a new individual rec- ord; a new team high of 93 points was also posted against Stafford Springs; Steitz also set a seasonal record of 397 points. The Spartans will miss the depth provided by the graduating Seniors. This young club will be even more potent next year and a winning season is in sight and perhaps even a League Championship.

The Spartans opened the season with an impressive 5-3 victory over Pittsfield. Led by Captain Jack Brock, the Spartans continued the season fighting valiantly but suffering many heartbreaking losses. Sputtering through the season, the Spartan offense had its problems. Some nights they were held scoreless. On other night, they opened up scor- ing four or more goals.

A fine combination of hitting, pitching, and fielding enabled the Spartans to create the powerhouse team which completed the season only a half game out of first place in Valley Wheel competition.

Though the team was not as successful as had been hoped, that the season was nevertheless re- warding to Coach Dutille’s Spartans is evidenced by tthe changes made in the record book : two school records were tied and five new ones were estab- lished. Steve Chase tied the standing school records in the 100 and 220 yard dashes; Paul Ouellette set a new school record of 20 ' 1 1 1 4 , in the long jump and then went on to break his own mark in the low hurdles with a dash of 21.4 seconds. Dave Phil- lips clocked in at 10:46.1 minutes in the two mile run, smashing his own school record set during the previous seasons; with a throw of 171 feet, Dave Buddington set a new record with the javelin, while in the high jump a new mark of 5 ' 1 was established by Doug Brega. After placing third in Class A competition in the Western Massachusetts Track Meet, five Spartans were eligible to compete in the state meet, where keen competition prevented Spartan placement. 3 w he t he?

For the first time at ELHS, the Spanish Club, Los Espartanos Espanoles, held a Spanish Fiesta for members of the club, as well as for members of the faculty and administration. A dinner of typical Spanish dishes was served to the aficionados, followed by entertainment including Spanish danc- ing by Senor Don Carlos Pe ' nalver, a native of Spain. Highlights of the evening were pinata break- ing on the part of the teachers, and a bullfight. AS SCHOOLS MATCH WITS Phil Shepardson pulls another pun. Warm-up questions are easy ?

Competing against teams from Williston Academy, Palmer High School, and Northampton High School, the team made a good show- ing in all three games even while losing to Northampton by fifteen points in the final game. Next year will see many new faces on the team but Mr. John Roan, advisor, is looking forward to round one com- petition. Afidi A lL Randy, what IS the matter with you?

A row of leaders. Graduation is eagerly awaited by every senior class and this year’s class was no exception. Be- cause of the planned outdoor graduation a week was spent rehearsing for this event. This is how we would have looked. 12 Our most honored graduate Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Robert . Schools, Mr. Robert Jarvis. SENIOR CLASS BANQUET The traditional banquet for the Senior Class was held on June 10th at Betty’s Olde Towne House. The guest speaker was Mr. Tom Colton of WVf LP, Channel 22, host of his own program, “Western Massachusetts High- lights.” With John Brock as toastmaster, the evening was memorable for the clearly evident spirit of fellow- ship. An atmosphere of suspense was generated by seniors asking the inevitable question, “Have the year- books arrived yet?” At the close of the speaking pro- gram the question was firmly answered with a resound- ing “Yes” and the banquet ended as seniors went from table to table getting yearbooks signed. Larry Markham can’t believe his eyes. Other people believe theirs. Mr. Francis Dutille, class advisor, receives a memento from the Class of ’65. Mr. Dutille, in turn, presents a token to Mr. Camp. 1 ve always nan this reflex action “I have a special interest in this class.” I don t know what to say. Students worry about what faculty will write. The yearbooks arrive and confusion reigns; you were in a homeroom, weren’t you? I minors. GRADUATION DAY That was the graduation that was. After spending a week rehearsing in nearly perfect weather, the Class of 1965 looked forward eagerly to the first outdoor graduation in the history of the school. The stadium had been prepared since early Sunday morning. The weather was promising. At 3:25, as the seniors marched in cap and gown to the field, the rains came. Hurried schedule changes were put into effect and the Class of 1965 was graduated from Wheeler Auditorium. The sentiments of the class can best be summed up in the statement, “I always did want an indoor graduation!” Nevertheless, graduation day will always be re- membered. Keep smiling. While waiting — let me entertain you. On the way. Barry s address of welcome. Nancy Ferguson presents the class gift Dean Wilson urges realism. After commencement, gifts.

They left us the pyramids, the Taj Mahal and many other world-renowned buildings which will last for centuries. Today, you are the architect for the building of your future. And your education will be the keystone of that building. Like any building, the little world you build for your future security must have a plan. You must start with a solid foundation. You must work hard to complete the building. Then you must be prepared to live, work, provide for a family and contribute something to the society of which you are a part. You, too, may be well remembered by future generations by getting a better edu- cation, planning more carefully and working harder than those who do not take advan- tage of these precious elements. May you achieve your goals and ambitions in the building of a secure and happy future.
