4 It’s time to move on........ Now we have the chance to bring all our dreams once only shadows to life.............. Letting go of the past won’t be easy, But we can always carry slices of it with us . . . Slices of memories to remind us of tears we cried smiles we smiled along the way. We have our whole lives ahead of us. The decisions won’t always be easy — The choices won’t always be clear. Every day will be a challenge with new obstacles to overcome new ideas to explore. But as we move on, We can always leave the door to the past open a crack, So that while we’re chasing our dreams for the future, Yvonne Lieblein Administration ....................................4 Faculty ..........................................10 Seniors ..........................................18 Underclassmen ....................................42 Activities........................................54 Athletics ........................................84 Advertisements ..................................122 ADMINISTRATION On May 18, 1931 a special meeting of the Board of Education was held to discuss the purchase of the Price estate. It was approved and shortly after, con- struction began. In September 1933 Greenport High School was opened. This little building was used many years ago as a schoolhouse for Greenport children.

As principle, he is responsible for all aspects of secondary school education which includes Grades 7-12. As Athletic Director, Mr. Kahrs is responsible for physical education and all athlet- ics in Grade K-12. Dr. Nelson is the Superintendent of Schools. He joined the Greenport Staff as Secondary School Principal in 1978 and was appointed Superin- tendent of Schools in July 1980. 6 Every morning at 8:00 the school awakens to a busy day of fun-filled activities and plenty of teaching. The offices fill with administrators and secretaries who rush around making sure that the day goes smoothly. At the head of this corporation, known as Greenport High School, is Dr. Carl Nelson. Each year as the school population grows, greater re- sponsibilities are placed on the administration. Effectively coordinating the multifaceted programs becomes a tremen- dous responsibility. Able administrators were vital to the day by day smooth operation of the school. Mr. Carl Nelson and Mr. Jim Kahrs provide the faculty and student body with necessary administrative services for an orderly and efficient program. 7 V. Heaney, Accounts Secretary M.

CHERYL WHITE It’s June, the grandest month of the year, yet we seem a bit oblivious of the joys and happiness brought about by this time of sea- son. Our days of school are almost over. Days spent steeping ourselves with knowledge, methods, practice and the application of what we learned. Days which have comprised the most useful years of our lives. Time has passed too swiftly over these priceless years spent in attainment of our goal and the realiza- tion of our ideal. To us it all seems our work has just begun yet June is here confidently thrusting us into the world, prepared to justify our study at Greenport High and daring a challenge of a world to conquer.

Forming the backbone of the shows, the high school chorus and Singers (both directed by Mr. Wells), the high Chorus-Row 1: W. Clark, L. Parrish, A. Smith, S. Edwards, D. Blackwell, R. Tabor Row 2: A.

Besides the school concerts, each group participated in other music related activities. It may not seem odd to see football players and the elderly at the concerts, but what about Singers at a football game or at a nursing home? Opening up the Homecoming Game, the Sing- ers performed the National Anthem, something never done before. The Singers also continued their tradition of singing at the San Simeon Nursing Home. Jazz Rock Ensemble-Row 1: C. Duffy, S. Rock, G. Montgomery, J. Hollowell, P. MacLean, S. Horton Row 2: Mr. Townsend, S. Nelson, E. Terry, A. Utz, Z. Pendergrass, H. Mulhall, J. Longworth Row 3: M.

Smith performed under the direction of Mr. Wells. Sophomore S. Tramontana hops along side the disguised J. Barszczewski. J. Kiski, C. Bumble and D. Schineller are under arrest by the savage native B. Hulse in the sophmore class act. The lights dimmed signaling the creaking seats and auditorium chat- ter to stop. The 1984 Interact Tal- ent Show was underway . . . once again bringing out the hidden talent that lurks in the halls of GHS. From the Singers who started off the show to the finale by the Jazz- Rock Ensemble, it was an enjoy- able evening. There were a few pianists, Kathy White doing a solo and Kari Utz and Elke Terry teamed up to do a duet. Andrea Utz and Sean Horton got together to perform a song dance routine. The Class of 1987 put on another show-stopping skit that had every- one ready to hit the surf. Krista Hillicker, Sandy Nelson and Lee Hollowell danced to “Obscene Phone Caller.” Christine Mazza- ferro, Carolyn Zehner, John Ma- comber, Regina Finne . . . and was it Lionel Richie? No, it was Zonte Pendergrass . . . sang their hearts out. The 1984 Interact Talent Show gave us a night we will long remember. Interact Club —Row 1: J. Santacroce, Y. Lieblein, C. Mazzaferro, J.

Tuthill OUTING CLUB What name other than Outing Club could better describe a group of students who spend their vaca- tions white-water rafting down the Delaware, fishing in the dark of night for bluefish, “surviving” in the Poconos or skiing down Tone Mountain? This year the Outing Club under the advisorship of Mr. Jantzen continued to live up to its reputation of being one of the more popular clubs in school. Science teacher Mr. Jantzen is advisor to the Outing club. A.V. CLUB It doesn’t take much talent to get in front of a camera, but it takes a lot of technical knowledge to be a ham behind the camera. Members of the Audio Visual Club can al- ways be found at school functions recording such events as the school play, the talent show and important athletic events. If it weren’t for the A.V. Club, other students wouldn’t be able to enjoy the video tapes of their friends and themselves. Audio Visual Club- Row 1: R. Seavers, Mr. Adams, W. Horton Missing from picture: D. Poole 63 SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club consists of the stu- dents enrolled in any of the four Span- ish classes. The advisor is Mr. Jack Campbell, who is also the Spanish teacher. Classes are taught for Spanish 1, 2, and 3, but students taking Span- ish 4 receive grades on assignments which they work on independently. The Spanish Club spent their Easter Vacation in Puerto Rico 1982. The Club hopes to travel again in 1985 to Mexico. J. King and B. Schoen practice their Spanish accents with headphones and tapes.

Dansereau work on a French assign- ment. The year began — new students met and old students reinited with their friends the Dubois sisters and their buddy Francois Le Seve. We learned about etre, avoir and other annoying irregular verbs. (French students know what threy are.) We studied French customs, and for the holiday tests gave a cheer. We even pleaded with Pere Noel (bet- ter known as Santa Claus) as Christmas drew near. And Just when we want to give up trying to sound nasal” and Mr. Kiernan is almost ready tp shout, we remem- ber there’s a little French in all of us —just waiting to come out. French 4 —Row 1: D. Blackwell, N. Nichols, B. Tuthill, J. Vindigni, P. Heaney 65 Amidst a pile of photographs, John searches for needed pictures. Picturebooks are for babies, and no one could agree more than the members of the 1985 Beachcomber staff. That’s why instead of spend- ing three hours on a page arranging the photo- graphs. we spent an extra couple of hours writing copy, fitting it and overall, improving the quality of the yearbook. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but it’s not worth anything if your memory fails you, and you forget the things a picture is supposed to remind you of. What goes on behind that door on the second floor with the word Beachcomber written on it? Not much, just students putting together a book which about 50 seniors and even more under classmen will cherish long after they’ve graduat- ed from GHS. It has yet to make the Best-sellers list, but come June it’s the hottest book circulat- ing around school — students searching for pic- ture of themselves and friends, armed with pens chasing teachers and classmates, trying to get everyone’s autograph. It’s more than a picture- book or an autograph book ... It is the Beachcomber. A yearbook should be more than a picture- book and under the direction of Editor-in-Chief Wendi Clark and advisor, Ms. Anne Reeder, the staff has attempted to do just that. Needless to say, any group that attempts to cram over 180 days into 144 pages deserves some kind of credit. BEACHCOMBER Beachcomber staff —Row 1: S. Be- gora, J. Walden, B. Tuthill, R. Tabor, J.

Co-sports editor Terry carefully plans, mea- sures and sizes every el- ement of each page in the sports section. Wendi, the editor-in- chief keeps an accurate record of the staff’s progress. 66 THE QUILL “Journalism is the ability to meet the challenge of filling space.” Rebecca West. Journalism gives students an oppor- tunity to voice their opinions and pre- sent topics that appeal to all students in a professional fashion. The student newspaper provides young people with a vehicle to express and publicize their views. Achieving a high level of success and respectability requires work, creativity and a sense of pride. It may seem like a high price to pay, but the rewards are numerous. No one can describe the personal satisfaction at seeing your own name and writing in print or the feeling one gets from win- ning an award. Whether it be an indi- vidual or group award, the accompanying excitement and exhilir- ation is comparable to that of any athlete. Another reward for being in journal- ism, is the annual overnight trip to New York to attend the Columbia Scholas- tic Press Association Spring Confer- ence (CSPA). The ’84 staff set the precedent for the overnight trip as well as taking such a field trip which includ- ed the Broadway show “On Your Toes.” This year the staff enjoyed a 3- day vacation in the Big Apple. The conference gave students a chance to meet and learn from acclaimed jour- nalists, photographers and artists. As well as being informative and culturally stimulating, the trip also provided the students with a chance to meet and exchange ideas with different student journalists from all over the country. In 1982, the Empire State Scholas- tic Press Association (ESSPA) awarded The Quill a 3rd place award for Best Editorial Page. This award marked the first of a long list of awards for the staff. Under the advisership of Mr. Thomas Rabbitt, The Quill has contin- ued to place respectably in various journalism contests. In 1983, Newsday awarded a 2nd place for Newswriting to P. Marvin, 3rd place to sophomores C. Mazzaferro, C. Zehner and B. Tuth- ill for Feature Writing and a 1st place for Typography and Lay-out, beating out The Rag. 1984- cspCSPA Award for Best Cartoon (K. Wilkinson) marked The QuilTs first national award. Out of all the contests, the CSPA contest is con- sidered the most prestigious. In ’84 The Quill received three All- Columbia awards in addition to a Med- alist rating. ESSPA awarded Kathy Grattan Honorable Mention for Best Sports Story, Carolyn Zehner 2nd place for Best Editorial, Karen Wilkin- son 2nd place for Best Cartoon and Bridget Tuthill 1st place for Newswrit- ing. In ’85 Kris Gillispie received a Gold Circle Certificate of Merit for Featurewriting. In the Quill office, reporters Matt, Will and Dan proofread the copy before putting the paper to bed.

Walden, J. Vin digni, Mr. Claire. In every poem or piece of prose they write, the contributors of Shorelines, the literary maga- zine, try to convey a feeling or a thought in a tangible form we all can appreciate. Unlike other activities, Shorelines welcomes entries from cre- ative artists and writers ranging from seventh grade to twelth grade. Shorelines is an admirable framework for the writing and illustrations submitted. This year the editorial board was comprised of seniors (members of the Writing for Publication class) who conducted and oversaw the produc- tion of the magazine with a lot of help from their advisor, Mr. Dennis Claire. Under the direction of Mr. Claire, Shorelines made big waves at its very first competition where the newly conceived magazine swept up two out of a possible four All-Columbia awards as well as a First place rating at the 1984 Colum- bia Press Association competition. All of these awards represent the scholarship and dedication of every person affiliated with the magazine. This year the staff hoped to continue in the foot- steps of its previous editors and produce a liter- ary magazine of high quality. 70 Jeff tapes while Scott cuts in preparing the magazine for the printer.

A new Swedish face was replacing the familiar face of Jens Asheim, last year’s exchange student. Anna was chosen as a 1984-85 Rotary Exchange Student by Rotary International. She narrowed her choice down to New Zealand. Australia or America. She picked the U.S.A. and regards it as a good choice. “I like it here. People are friendly and very helpful.” Whenever a student from a foriegn country enters the school for the first time, people are curious about the stu- dents background, family, and customs. Sweden is located in northern Europe and is one of the Scandanavian coun- tries along with Denmark, Norway, Finland, and Iceland. Anna comes from Taby, a suburb 15 minutes from Stock- holm, the capital of Sweden. She lives at home with her parents and two brothers, Jens and Pal. Though Anna has a busy schedule, she has time to keep in touch with her family through letters and phone calls. At this time her family is sponsoring an American girl from Texas. Many people ask Anna “Why did you become an ex- change student?” Anna admits that she wanted a change from her normal routine in Sweden. She says, “It’s a great learning experience not just educationally but socially and emotionally.” It is an experience she will never regret car- ring out. Anna has many outside interests. She loves to ski and run track. In addition to sports, she enjoys photography. This year she had the opportunity to play on the Clipper Field Hockey Team which clinched the league championship. Before this, Anna had never played field hockey and did not know what a field hockey stick was. However, with some practice and sheer guts, she learned the necessary skills for game competition. ‘‘In Sweden,” says Anna, ‘‘Everyone plays only one sport a year. It’s not like here where you can play three during one year.” While in Sweden, Anna ran track the whole year. Her school had an indoor and outdoor track. Although there are similarities, the educational system in Sweden differs from that of America. In Sweden, after nine years of schooling from the ages of seven to 16, the students can either continue their education or start working. According to Anna, a big percentage goes to gymnasium, which is similar to our junior college and trade school in America. Students must choose a line or course of study. Says Anna, “There’s a nursing line and a math line. You pick the line and the school picks your courses.” Anna has already completed one year of the technical line, and upon her return to Sweden anticipates finishing the remaining two years. After gymnasium the students have the option of going to a university. The whole physical school day in Sweden is different from here. With a twinkle in her eye and a smile, Anna adds, In Sweden, the lunch period is much longer, and we have five minute breaks between each class.” Also, the students do not follow the same schedule everyday. Says Anna, “One day you could start school at 8:00, but another day your first class may be at 10:00.” Anna has adjusted to the American way of life quite easily. Yes, she wears florescent cloths, digs M.J. and Bruce, and eats Big Macs at Mickey D’s just like the rest of us. She has become “one of the gang.” She is known by the senior gym class as “Anna Banana” because of her soccer ability and, of course, her blond locks. In the small amount of time that she has been here, she has become aquainted with many people. 77 NAME NICKNAME PET PEEVE SEEN MOST Suzanne Abate Sue People who try and interfere with my personal life, womenlzers. and two-faced people.

Clippers Ray Mangham, Danny Luce, John Macomber and John Basile look at the program while there is a break in the action. THERE’S NO STOPPING US! “There’s no stopping us!” No quote could better describe the attitude among the members of the varsity Clipper Field Hockey Team. Fall 1984 saw the girls clinch the League VI title, adding another championship banner to the gym walls. The Clippers started their season with a bang, shutting out Stony Brook 6-0. Their success continued with a nine game winning streak highlighted by the fact that until the last game, no league team had scored upon the defense. Mid-season the team won the Easthampton Coaches’ Cup Tournament defeating Mattituck and Easthampton along the way. Southampton managed to edge the Clippers in postseason play knocking them out of the second round of play-off games, for the first time in many years, the Clippers beat the Hampton Bays Baymen, a goal set by the Clippers at the onset of the season.

Gone from the team were a large bunch of seniors. However, what the the team lacked in experience they made up with strong enthusiasm. With Senior Jason Reyn- olds playing quarterback, the Clippers blasted Stony Brook in their season opener. Memories of Sam Smith flying into the end zone to catch a deep pass fill our minds when we think of the opening game. The teamwork exhibited in this game was outstanding; every man did his job to the best of his ability. The Clipper spirit was shown at the end of the game when players ran toward each other and greeted each other with a high five. As the season moved on, the team suffered a string of losses. When the Clippers played Southampton at home, they broke out of their slump with a vengeance. Southamp- ton was defeated on all sides by Clipper offense and de- fense. The Clippers ended their season with Dave Sosnowski, Fred Pringle, Dave Rishe, Sam Smith, Jeff San- tacroce, and Chip Hilary being nominated to All-League. All of these players demonstrated skill and leadership through- out the season. While the 1984 Clippers only won two games, they are to be commended for their outstanding effort and team spirit.

The team suffered their two losses to Shoreham-Wading River, who proved to be the strongest team in the league with its entire lineup shooting an average in the low forties for 9 holes. Four out of the six players on the starting lineup were seniors. John Tuthill, Christine Mazzaferro, Jeff Walden and John Walden have been playing on the squad since junior high school. In reference to the seniors, Mr. Burlingame said, “I am really going to miss those kids; there wasn’t a time when they didn’t give 150 percent.” John Walden feels, “It’s sad that this is our last season, but I am thankful that 1 decided to take up golf because golf is a game which you can play for the rest of your life.” These four seniors have improved their games individually by at least 20 strokes since their junior high school years. Dur- ing the season they held the spots respectively of two, three, four and five on the starting lineup and shot in the low forties. Holding down the number one spot on the team for his second year was Wayne Stepnoski, a junior from Southold. Wayne made quite a name for himself participating in many Metropolitan Golf Association Tournaments this past summer. Averaging 40 for his matches, Wayne was extremely successful in competition. Rounding out the team were two newcomers, Steven Miska and Matt Grattan. These underclassmen shared the number six position for alternate matches. With scores in the low fifties, Steven and Matt succeeded in destroying most of their op- ponents and proved to be essential to the team’s success. This year turned out to be a rather positive year for the team. Mr. Burlingame said, “They were a great group to work with, and even though over half of the team is graduating, I am greatly looking forward to next year.” Coach Burlingame poses for a shot before he goes out on the course.

The runners were once again under the guidance of Mr. Leavey and once again had a very success- ful season. Cross Country is a sport for those who like to run . . . alot. The squad averaged about 6 miles per practice. They ran up and down sand hills, through wilderness trails, and along highways. “Cross country is the ultimate sport!” says Robert Seavers. “It is just you against the road, and it’s a great challenge.” The Clippers finished an excellent season and truly ran rings around the competition. The word “diversity” accurately describes the 1985 Clipper Track team. The team received an excellent turnout and was composed largely of a group of veteran underclassmen. The Clippers had excellent athletes participating in each event and were under the direction of Mr. Paul Davis. Terry Keefe, a sophomore who throws discus, says, “We have alot of talent in every area. We’ll have an excellent season.” The 1985 Clipper Track team shows promise for 1985 and also for the future. 1st Row: L. Pilles, A. Fjel- kestam, B. Tuthill, A. Utz, R. Diaz 2nd Row: C. Prato, T.

The team is under the direction of Mr. Richard Manwaring and Mr. Rob- ert Wiltse, and is made up of mostly senior players. Practice began for the girls on March 5. Their first scrimmage was to be held on April 3. The girls all feel very confident in their team and are ready to work hard during their season. Softball is the only girls sport in Greenport that is not consolidated with Southold High School. Because of this the rivalry between the two teams is always very strong and the games are very exciting. This years team has many strong players that will hopefully help bring the team into a championship position. Loretta Campbell, better known as Scoop by her teamates, is one of the best short stops in the Porters League. Scoop is expected to have an outstanding season. Both the outfield and infield positions are held by players with strong athletic ability. Sue Abate, a senior who has been on the team since eigth grade, is an excellent second basemen who can play anywhere on the field. Catcher Joan Vindigni, also a senior, feels that this is really going to be her year. Joan has been catching for the Porters for three years. All of the girls on this years team have high potential and hope to show it as much as possible. Sophomore Julie Sepenoski states, “I don’t know if we’re gonna go all the way, but I know we will have a really fun season!” Top Row: C. Pruitt, M. Pruitt, P. Heaney, Cap- tain S. Abate, J.

PORTERS PREDICT A GOOD SEASON Coming back from a record of 8-8 the Porter varsity baseball team led by Coach Kiernan is looking forward to a very promising season. It looks like the Porter’s have a very good chance to win their league title. Due to the loss of only two seniors, the Porters will look similar to last years team. Two All-League players John Tuthill and Dave Sosnowski are returning to lead the team. Along with Tuthill, Seniors include Sam Smith, Roger Foster, John Walden and Jeff Walden. The Porters first practice was held indoors on March 6, 1985. Coach Kiernan’s Jane Fonda Aerobic exercises along with the Jugs batting Machine are keeping the team in shape until they can get outside. The Porters have an experienced infield and outfield, but the teams only unpredictable area is pitching. Sosnowski and Tuthill have had Varsity experience. Newcomers to the mound include Foster, Gagen, and Tamin. With three games per week, the team will need all the pitchers they can get. The Porters schedule includes 18 league games and two non-league games. Their season opener is against Eastport on April 1. Captain John Tuthill said, “If we get by Pierson and Southold, I think we can go all the way.” Roger Foster fields a grounder at short stop. 96 Senior John Tuthill gets ready to hit the ball during a pre- season practice.

The team was coached by Mr. Paul Davis. The team had a league VIII record of 1 win and 5 losses. In reference to the teams record. Coach Davis said, “All of the matches were close, but we always seemed to lose a key match.” The team consisted of seniors, Peter Kruk, John Walden, and Jeff Walden; Juniors Fred Pringle, Kevin Gadomski, Rick Diaz, and Joe Gagen; Sophomores Ken Tamin, Pat Gagen, and Mike Connolly; Freshman Colin Crowley and Vincent Ficurilli. Ironically the teams closest match was against the League VIII champs, East Hampton. The clippers lost the match by one point, “I wish we could have won the match, but they know how we feel since we beat them by one point last year,” said Jeff Walden! The team looked their strongest at the League VIII Tournament at the close of the season. Six of the twelve team members qualified for the county Tournament. Fred Pringle, who was voted most valuable wrestler by his teammates, took the only First place at the League Tournament at the 215-pound weight class. Team members Kevin Gadomski and Pat Ga- gen took 2nd place while John Walden, Joe Gagen, and Mike Connolly finished in the number three position. Next year looks good for the Clippers since they are only losing three seniors. Members of the Greenport-Southold wrestling team ac- knowledge the crowd during a home match.

Think about it for a moment. Cheerleaders keep the school spirit alive, they are the people who look for the positive even in the most hopeless games. Besides being full of spunk, Cheerleaders are also very athletic. They work just as hard on their cheers as the Basketball team works on their plays. GHS has two groups of cheerleaders, one for the Clipper Football squad and another for the Porter Bas- ketball team. This year’s Football cheerleaders were all returning cheerleaders from last year’s squad, with the exception of Dianne Schineller. The squad had two All- American Cheerleaders, Andrea Utz and Linda Plus- chau. These two girls attended and cheered in the Hula Bowl in Hawaii. The girls were coached by Debbie Barczszewski and had a very successful season. This year’s Basketball cheering squad began as usual with their practices leading to the big night of tryouts. After a few rigorous workouts the squad with its majority of newcomers were looking forward to the oncoming season with high hopes. The squad suffered a few misfor- tunes but were able to come out of them with a sense of unity. Whether it be Cheerleaders for Basketball or Cheer- leaders for Football the girls kept the fans going and also the teams. They were very talented and also put on good cheers for their audience.

CLIPPERS FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT The Clipper Girls Varsity Basketball team began its 1984-85 season with five returning players, two JV players and five newcomers. Because of the problems of finding an open gym, the team often had short practices at irregular times. Still they had many close games against other League VIII teams as-well-as non-League teams such as Eastport and Center Moriches. The Clipper girls were coached by Mr. Richard Manwaring. The girls finished fifth in their League and although the season was not as successful as they had hoped, the players that plan on returning next year are looking forward to a strong future. Sharon Edwards, a junior at Greenport, shoots the ball up for another two points for the Clippers. Yvonne Lieblein, a sophomore, shoots the ball as her team- mates come up for the rebound. 75 Bottom Row: K. Grattan, L. Parrish, K. Mulhall, J. Vindigni Top Row: M. Mealy, L. Faszczewski, Y.

All six players on the court must work in unison to keep the ball flowing and in the air. This year’s Varsity and J.V. teams were coached by Mr. James Kahrs and Mr. James Daniels respectively. The varsity team lost six seniors to graduation last year. However there was still a nucleus of returning seniors and also players from last year’s J.V. team. There were changes made in this year’s program. The girls got new uniforms. Also, Mr. Kahrs and Mr. Daniels incorporated computers into the volleyball program to keep a record of individual player’s statistics. This year a big emphasis was placed on serving techniques. In the repeated words of Mr. Kahrs, “You can’t win, if you can’t serve.” Top Row: Coach Kahrs, Michelle Mealy, Carolyn Zehner, Sandy Malungahu, Anita Johnson Bottom row: Kathy Grattan, Christine Maiorana, Amanda King Coach Daniels gets into the action.

The team was com- posed of a variety of guys who ranged from grades 9-12. The team was coached by Allen Edwards, a former student at Greenport. The team worked together like a well oiled machine and was able to win many games. The guys were great ball handlers and shooters with “Jumping” Warren Palmore leading the team in scoring. Junior Chris Wachtel calls a play and inbounds the pass. The Porters started out with a series of non-league losses. Once the league began, the boys rebounded with a series of wins. The squad played two very exciting games against Southold. One in which they won by one point and one in which the Porters lost. This was the first year in six years that Southold had beat Greenport. Toward the end of the season the boys suffered many losses, but they managed to finish third in their league. Senior Forward Jason Reynolds receives a pass and begins his move toward the basket.

True 107 CONSOLIDATION PROVES SUCCESSFUL AS CLIPPERS FINISH STRONGLY The consolidation of Greenport and Southold to form the Clipper sports has been nothing short of successful. Just ask the girls tennis team, the J.V. football team, the J.V. field hockey team, or the girls volleyball team. The J.V. field hockey team was, in the words of one spectator, “truly devastating.” The girls captured the league title under the guidance on Coach Tyrer. The J.H. football team also had a firm grasp on the competition. Coach Claire and Coach Daniels worked the boys, a group of 7th, 8th, and 9th grade boys, into a football machine. Two year veteran George Costello said, “We had a very good team. 1 think we should all be proud of the way we performed.” Consolidation also aided the girls varsity tennis team. The girls did not have many team victories but they were ex- tremely successful in their overall performance. The girls all gave 101% and gained valuable experience for future sea- sons. Senior Carolyn Zehner was the only Greenport player on the squad. Carolyn was one of the top players and finished with an excellent individual record. As of press time, the Clippers J.V. volleyball team was not organized for the season. However, their season is ex- pected to be a strong one with many players starting from last years squad. The Clipper sports program is alive and going strong, just check the scorebook! J.H. Football-lst Row: S. Fitzgerald, R. Corwin, G. Miska, E. Corwin, M. Abate, V. Ficurelli, S. Ferguson, P.

I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I felt I had to keep it up for a lifetime. Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, “Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.” Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my life as it comes, and fit my- self to it. Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read some- thing that requires effort, thought and concentration. Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways, I will do some- body a good turn, and not get found out; if anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don’t want to do —just for ex- ercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it. Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticise not one bit, not find fault with anything, and not try to improve or regulate anybody but myself. Just for today I will have a programme. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it, I will save myself from two pests — hurry and indecision. Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself, and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life. Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me. 3083 C83C83C83C83C83C83083C83C83C83C83083C83C83C83C83C8338oC83 WE’RE GOING TO MISS YOU! No good morning or wecome back greets his students on the first day of school, especially his seniors. He begins scribbling on the chalkboard a limit and soon his entire Calculus class wishes it was the first day of summer vacation. Mr. Herbert Egert then breaks out with his familiar laugh and welcomes everyone back. Every senior who has ever passed through a class instructed by Mr. Egert will carry memories from GHS. Despite all the hard work involved with taking his class, every senior will admit that just having Mr. Egert for a teacher is worth all the pain. He is the one teacher that the students always throw a Birthday party for and he is the only teacher that throws his seniors a party before Christmas vacation. Mr. Egert has many well known characteristics. The classroom floor cov- ered with chalk dust, not to mention the back of his pants, his constant cackling laugh, his illegible handwriting, and his wonderful sense of humor. Coming to Greenport in 1955, a graduate from Albany College, Mr. Egert soon stepped into the role of a Math teacher. In 1974 he was the high school principal, but in 1978 he returned to teaching and became the chairman of the math department. Mr. Egert’s tremendous dedication to his job is much appreciated by his students. “He is one of the only teachers I know that will offer extra help from 7:15 a.m. before school and they stay after to help you even more,” said Kathy Grattan. “When we had to review for our math regents, he would come to school at seven in the morning and even pick up kids on the way if they needed a ride,” said John Tuthill. “Last year,” said Donna Blackwell, “we had extra evening classas so we could finish all the material for our Level III re- gents. What teacher do you know of who would agree to come back to school at night to teach more?” There is no room for doubt that every senior will miss Mr. Egert very much after graduation, but the memories of him will last forever, and that’s certainly not HOGWASH! “I’m not retiring from life, just from my job,” said Mrs. Althea Seavers. Mrs. Seavers began working as secretary to the superinten- dent on March 9, 1959. At the end of this school year Mrs. Seaver’s reign will end. Although her direct contact with the seniors is limited, Mrs. Seavers takes care of the financial end of the organizations and class funds. “I know I’m always in the Main Office asking her how much money we collected in advertisement for The Quill or for the Beachomber,” said Joan Vindigni who is business manager for the high school newspaper and yearbook. “I’m always checking my records with hers.” Wendi Clark, yearbook editor, said, “I know I always have to mail out things for yearbook and Mrs. Seavers handles all of the mail. She’s always very nice to me whether I mail out something or need change to make a phone call.” “Sure, I’m going to miss my job and my co-workers, but I have to consider the rest of my life.” Mrs. Seavers is not very certain what she will do after retiring. “Maybe I’ll move upstate or down south, somewhere else for a change of life.” For as long as the Class of 1985 remembers, Mrs. Seavers has always been there. “In a way I’m glad she’s retiring the year we graduate because to walk into the Main Office and not see her would be very strange,” said Bridget Tuthill. 120 Blue cards are not completed, college applications are not sent off and SAT ACT paraphanalia is not distributed without passing through the hands of Mrs. Martha Mazzaferro. Since March of 1966 Mrs. Mazzaferro has been the secretary anchoring down the guidance department at Greenport High School. “I totally enjoy working here, but working with the kids is what I enjoy most.” Working with the seniors is what Mrs. Mazzaferro does most. Every college application that is filed by a senior must be checked and sent off by her. This is aside from typing letters of recomenda- tion prepared by the counselors. Besides applications, Mrs. Mazza- ferro schedules all seniors for appointments with their counselors, distributes information pertaining to scholarships, registers students K-12, types and mails out bluecards, this is done outside of her usual routine work. “She does more for you seniors then you realize,” said Mr. Sal Vindigni, department chairman. John Walden, office aid to the guidance department works with Mrs. Mazzaferro and is one of the few seniors who actually sees all the work she does. “It’s unbelievable what she does for us, and she really enjoys every minute of it.” As for retirement, Mrs. Mazzaferro admits she has a few more years to go. When she does step down from her title, one can be sure that the guidance depaetment will never be the same without her. The Greenport High School Class of 1985 would like to thank Mrs. Martha Mazzaferro for all her assistance and friendliness during their high school years, and especially their senior year. “Excuse my voice if it doesn’t sound right because last night I slept in a barn and it’s a little hoarse.” The entire class groans and one student shouts out, “Tell us another one Mr. Mulhall.” Mr. James Mulhall, head of the science department, will be relinquishing his title this year. He began working at Greenport in 1957 and will officially retire this summer. “Science is my life; I love it,” said Mr. Mulhall. Because he enjoys physics so much, he will return to yeach the seniors next year. Famous for his very corny jokes and for the “stairs,” Mr. Mulhall is a favorite among the seniors. For any senior who took chemistry in the 11th grade, they were lucky to receive a double dose of Mr. Mulhall. Due to course requirements, a lab must be tagged on to a physics class. There is no doubt that Mr. Mulhall wil have very memorable memories of the Class of ’85 because of this lab. Since day one, Mr. Mulhall’s coffee seemed to disappear mysteriously. It soon became the thrill of the lab. “Who could hide Mr. Mulhall’s coffee first?” The second highlight of lab concerned ripple tanks. Many of the seniors attention spans seemed to dwindle as their minds wandered from wave mo- tion to paper boat construction. Ships such as the S.S. Mulhall were chris- tined. Even complete navies were born. Great memories can not be solely restricted to the lab. Many class activities are worth mentioning, two in particular. Mr. Mulhall creatively demonstrated static electricity by the use of a Vandergraff Generator. To say the least, it was a very hair raising experience. There is one feat of Mr. Mulhall’s that has made him famous, and that is the “stairs.” Endlessly physics students would demand a performance, and endlessly Mr. Mulhall would playfully sigh, “Why didn’t I listen to my mother and stay out of teaching?” Mr. Mulhall’s unique sense of humor always kept the students on his side. He was always so patient and good natured. The Class of 1985 will miss him very much! 121 ADVERTISING Jeff Walden, a senior at Greenport High School has been employed at Colonial Drugs since the beginning of the summer.
