DELPHIAN Paramus High School E. 99 Century Road Paramus, New Jersey 07652 Volume XXVII Shakespeare said it best . . . “in my mind’s eye” . . . Come, let us now be your guides as we venture into your mind’s eye . . . We will take a magic carpet ride to yesterday ... all will be remembered . . . from the free spirited rainbow chasing to the building of castles in the sky . . . it is a flight of fancy, a respite from the present, which will enable you to return to the past-and to dream of the future-if only for a little while. . . take great care, for the imagination is a precious gift . . . at times it may seem as if the images in motion are flying by too quickly, and you may falter . . . remember, the trip is never-ending, do not be afraid . . . the pot of gold really does exist, if you only believe We really did it! We completed our journey through Paramus High School. Yes! it did have its ups and downs; yet we all had a virtually successful trip. However, we must now prepare our¬ selves for another journey, a journey into the future, our fu¬ tures. In order to make ours a successful trip we must first use our imaginations and dream of where we truly want to go. As said by the great philosopher of our day, Mr. Willy Wonka, “There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination, Living there you ' ll be free if you truly wish to be, If you want to view paradise simply look around and view it, Anything you want to do it, Want to change the world, there’s nothing to it.” So my friends buckle your seat-belts, for you are about to take a journey, a journey first into your imagination and then into your future! — Michelle Plotkin, Editor-in-Chief 2 CONTENTS Administration . .. 12 L r Faculty . .18 i i Seniors . .50 i Student Life . . 114 • vT Sports . . . 186 Candids . .230 4 ft(V .

Galinsky Superintendent of Schools Dr. Harry Galinsky has returned to the Paramus school district as the new superintendent. He was the former assistant superintendent from 1975 to 1982. In his role as superintendent, he is responsible for the overall direction of the school district as its chief school administrator. In that role, he believes that the Paramus schools must provide a com¬ prehensive but challenging education for all its students. Although he believes we have excellent programs for the brightest students as well as for those with learning difficulties, he intends to extend these additional opportunities and advantages to the vast majority of stu¬ dents who fall between the two extremes. Dr. Galinsky is proud of Paramus High School and wishes the class of June, 1986 great success as they enter the next phase of their lives. Dr. Janice Dime . .. Jubilant . ..

STUDENT LIFE Student Executive Board Top Brass Student Government Officers Back Row: Michelle Plotkin-Treasurer, Marybeth La- manna-Secretary Front Row: Ben Mamola-Vice President, Erik Metviner-President. Elected by the students of their respective classes, the Student Executive Board members have used their leadership abilities to begin projects and other various events throughout the year, as well as fund-raising activities. These officers strive to create an interesting experience for their fellow students. Led by Class Chairperson Edward Sklar, the Senior class ran the concession stands at football games and sold fresh bagels in the commons. Underclassmen also ran similar events to save money for their Senior year. While the class officers worked with their individual classes, they also met with Mr. Zanella monthly to debate over the students’ financial as well as social needs. These monthly meetings held by the Student Advisory Board offered the students a chance to discuss the school’s policies and problems with the admin¬ istration. Members of the Student Advisory Board include the class officers, the Student Government officers, the Standing Committee chairpersons, the Prin¬ cipal, and the Vice-Principals. 116 Senators ...

Student Government is an organization where students with leadership abilities help their school overcome problems while attempting to create an enjoyable environment for their fellow students. Senate members, with committees such as school plant and curriculum, work to achieve these goals. Working towards the benefit of the student body, the aims of this group would be out of reach were it not for a strong and able student government. Making the high school an enjoyable place, in addition to being an excellent educational institution is the goal of these individuals. With the implementa¬ tion of a student government, the Administration aids in making the school the best it can possibly be. Class Officers Selected by their fellow classmates, the class officers use their leadership abilities to initiate activities, which include fund-raisers that have helped lower meet the cost of the Yearbook, Sen¬ ior Prom, and Senior picnic. Led by chairperson Edward Sklar, with able assistance from Vice- Chairperson Renee Arbeit, and Secretary Simone Anschel, the Senior class ran the concession stand and various other activities to make the Senior year more enjoyable. Underclassmen, too, held similar elections, and also worked diligently earn¬ ing money so that their four years at P.H.S. may be enjoyed to the fullest extent.

Throughout the year each class has sponsored many fundraising activities. One of the most pop¬ ular is the everpresent bagel sales in the Com¬ mons. Proceeds from this activity as well as the sale of food at the dances, pep rallies, and other activities help to cover the cost of the Prom, the Picnic, and the Yearbook, Each class has a sponsor and a group of hard-working officers who make sure each class has the necessary funds in their treasuries to assure many pleasant memories. 119 National Honor Society Excellence in scholarship, character, leadership, and service distinguish the Paramus High School members of the George W. Hodgins Chapter of the National Honor Society. Inducted in May, 1985, members of this organization also needed recommendations from teachers in order to gain admission. Advised by Mrs. Diana Walla and Mr. James LaGreca, the Honor Society also provides a tutoring service, so that students receive extra needed instruction. Through this practice, the overall academic standards of Paramus High School are raised. This organization, through events such as dances, raised money during the year to finance the National Honor Society. Officers of the National Honor Society are: Arthur Chaney, President; Manoj Bhatia, Vice- President; Lila Motivala, Secretary; and Keehoon Hahn, Treasurer.

Serving as the link between Paramus High School and the nations overseas, the International Club helps to introduce foreign exchange students to Paramus students. Through dances, parties, and other activities, members of the Club meet and learn about the countries and life-styles of Sandro Cornelia from Switzerland, and Kajsa Ramslov from Swe¬ den, our two Rotary students this year. Highlighting the year is International Day, when exchange students from around Bergen County are invited to the High School for luncheon, and an opportunity to speak to classes, as well as each other. Annual fundraisers are also held, including the sale of carna¬ tions on “Back-to-school night.” From Sweden . .. Tack! Kajsa Ramslov Sweden Sandro Cornelia Switzerland To write down everything I want to say to all of you is impossi¬ ble. This has been a year I will never forget thanks to all the teachers and students at Paramus High. You gave me your friendship and made me feel at home at once. I feel like I have lived here for my whole life. A lot of questions have been asked about why I came to the USA and if was hard to leave my family and all my friends for a whole year. Of course that was hard, but I will come back to them. The hardiest thing is going to be to leave all of you here at Paramus High, my host families, and yes, this country. I have got a lot of really special friends that I am going to miss. “Why did you come here?” Well, it was a challenge and a chance of a lifetime, I just couldn’t miss. To learn about another country, its culture and people. To learn to speak a language fluently. It was also a great opportunity to travel, which I love. During my stay I have so far been to the shore, made two trips to Washington, D.C., the Poconos, and on a skiing week-end in Vermont. I have also been visiting some colleges. I hope to do some more traveling at the end of my stay. When Bruce Springsteen was home for a visit, I was one of the lucky ones to see him in an amazing concert. I also saw the foreign concert and the musical “Cats” in New York City. There are a lot of things I am going to miss besides the people. For example, all the activities after school. We don ' t have that. Instead we have clubs outside school organized by the town. We don’t have cheerleaders, marching bands, and football. All these things give a good school-spirit and it is something you should be thankful for. I am also going to miss the friendly relationship between teachers and students. I think a lot of that is due to the fact that the teachers also are the coaches. At last I want to thank you all for making this year the best of my life. I hope you will take as good care of next year’s exchange student as you took of me. I will never forget you, even though there will be an ocean between us. Love, Kajsa Ramslov, Sweden From September 1985 until June 1986, I had the great opportunity to live as a regular High School student in Pa¬ ramus. I want to thank my three host families, the teachers, and, of course, the students for helping me so much and making me feel at home immediately. It was great with you guys! I will remember my first day in PHS vividly. When I ap¬ proached school for the first time, I was pretty nervous. It was a new school, a foreign language, and I did not really know what would happen to me. When I entered the school, every¬ body was so friendly; there were many people who asked me if they could help me — which was an overwhelming experience for me and made me feel right at home at once. Since this first day many things happened. I got used to the school, made a lot of friends and saw a lot of interesting places. I also participated in sports, something that we do not have to that extent in schools in Switzerland. We only have a little bit of sports over the lunch periods and we never com¬ pete with other schools. If we want to play a sport seriously, we have to do it in clubs outside the school. We do not have cheerleaders either, but I think they are great and add the special feeling that makes sports in the USA so unique. The clubs for many different interests were new to me too. They are really a great institution because they give students with similar interests an opportunity to get together within the school. This certainly improves the contact among stu¬ dents and makes the school more personal, which is, especial¬ ly for such a big school as P.H.S., very good. Also, the school dances present a good opportunity to get together in school and to promote school spirit. Keep up these traditions, they are great! During my year in the USA I got to know the country and its people much better. I have been to Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and, of course, to New York City and I still have a trip across the United States to look forward to. But wherever I go and whatever will happen in my future, I know that I will never forget this year and the people who made it such a great year for me and became a part of my life- The people from Paramus High School.

Talented and dedicated members of the Concert Choir compose the Small Ensemble. Although a small organiza¬ tion, this group demands much time and effort from the students, who were selected through an audition process. Directed by Mrs. Ann Charlton, members are required to put in extra time into their singing, so that their perfor¬ mances are as professional as possible. This talented group of singers performs both in and out of school, but the highlight of the year is their performance at the Pops Concert. Among the Small Ensemble’s varied repertoire are “Elijah Rock,” “Heather on the Hill,” “Send in the Clowns,” “Oklahoma!”, and “Onward Ye Peoples.” Back Row: Joy Safro, Doreen Kruk, Scott Zahorenko, Dan Zettler, Rich Wong, Bruce Ross, Chuck Santoro, Siavash Ghaffari, Danny Onorato, Bruce Kalman, Paula Pavlinec, Kelley Gildea.

By providing both musical and visual entertainment, the Pa- ramus High School Band is an integral part of school spirit. Not only is their musical talent excellent, but their enthusiasm is infectious. Beginning with hours of marching practice under the hot August sun, the Band strives to perfect its half-time show, which they performed at each football game. Open to any student playing a percussion, bass, or wind instrument, the Spartan Marching Band also gave a rousing performance at the Herald News Band Festival in October. Their wide repertoire spans the entire musical spectrum, including popular music as well as classi¬ cal. This gamut was displayed to its fullest at the Holiday Concert, where they were able to exhibit their musical capabilities along with several returning alumni. In addition, the Band may also be seen marching in the Memorial Day and Fourth of July Parades. Once again, the Band has its share of advanced musicians who successfully auditioned for the highly All North Jersey Regional Band. These students were Brian Miskie, Laurette Gabour, Drew Torigian, and Stuart Schweidel. Continuing its tradition of exchange trips, this year, the Band went to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, a site of tremendous historical importance to America, and a fascinating experience.

Michael Rosenberg and Srino Bharam Drum Majors Jazz Ensemble . . . Exciting Euphonies! Providing an outlet for talented PHS musicians to express them¬ selves as well as to expand their rep¬ ertoire, the Jazz Ensemble, under the direction of Mr. Ron Kalman, is composed of a very select group of students. Chosen through an audi¬ tion process, members rehearse once a week to hone their musical skills. Instrumentation consists of saxo¬ phones, trumpets, trombones, and a rhythm section. All of these sounds blend together to form one of Ameri¬ ca’s favorite types of music, jazz. Their appeal to audiences of all ages stems from their wide variety of se¬ lections of jazz, blues, and pop. With their exciting energetic sound, the Jazz Ensemble is a favorite part of the Holiday and Spring Concerts.

Under the supervi¬ sion of Mr. Ron Kalman, the group meets once a week to practice and develop its broad repertoire of music. Thanks to the motivation and talent of this group, the Wind Ensemble adds an invigorating touch to the Spring Concert. Back Row.

This group, led by Mr. Weisglas, is selected through an audition process, and is an excellent opportunity to broaden one’s knowledge of music. Students study the clas¬ sical repertoire for strings. In addition to playing at events such as the Holiday Concert, the String Ensemble also performs at many out-of-school concerts, such as senior citizens centers and malls. This organization demands much time and effort from its members, who sacrifice extra time in order to become better musicians. 131 The Music Department’s Exchange Trip Chuck and Laura on the train back to Paramus. 132 to Florida, April 17-21, 1985 Just a bunch of beach bums.

Are we having fun yet? 133 134 Rodgers and Hammerstein’s One of the biggest Broadway Musicals came to Paramus High School this year, the outstanding and majestic production of Rodgers and Hamerstein’s Oklahoma! This show was presented to a packed house on Friday, February 28, and Saturday, March 1, 1986. Oklahoma! takes place just after the turn of the century in Indian territory; what is now Oklahoma. This show featured one of the best cast of characters assembled in the High School for a musical, in a very long time. It opens as Aunt Eller, played by Doreen Kruk, is seen churning butter in front of her farmhouse as a voice is heard. It is that of Curley portrayed by Bruce Ross singing, “Oh What a Beautiful Mornin’.” Laurie Williams, the gal “Curley tuck a shine to” enters, played by Laura Edwards. Together they talk about getting to the Box Social in a “Surrey with the Fringe on Top.” Then the “guys” enter, Ike, Fred, Slim, and Cord played by Gene De Maio, Kevin Roland, Greg Gordon, and Don Chami talking about who came back from the fair; Will Parker, portrayed by Chuck Santoro tells and taps about his fun he had in “fcansas City.” Ado Annie, enacted by Joy Safro, who is supposed to marry Will, enters with the Peddler, Ali Hakim, played by Chris Balcom. Ado tells Laurie how she “Can’t say No!” or make up her mind between the two men. Jud Fry, portrayed by Anthony Gilio, wants to take Laurie to the Box Social; Laurie is also tom between Jud and Curley. She picks Jud, to Curley’s dismay. In retaliation Curley takes the flirtatious Gertie Cummings, played by Paula Pavlinec to the party. “The Girls” played by Barbie Leiberstein, Kelley Gildea, Tracy Waldman, Tammy Weishaupt, Shari Snider, and Laura Lenhard, try to cheer Laurie up and together they learn that “Many a New Day” will dawn! Ado Annie’s father, Andrew Carnes, played by Bruce Kalman, threatens Ali to marry his “rosebud” and Ali is “outraged.” Laurie takes a smell of the Elixir of Egypt to make up her mind. She falls into a “Dream” which leads to a ballet. Lead dancer and assistant choreographer, Laila Chaoiu, was the dream “Lau¬ rie” as the figures of Curley, Jud, Will, Fred, Kate, and Ellen drift on in a mist of smoke. In the end everything turned out for the best. Jud unfortunately killed himself on his knife in a struggle, and the blame is set on Curley. Meanwhile, Will and Ado Annie had a “misunderstanding, but it was explained . . . fine!” Curley is set free by the judge and Federal Marshall and then Curley and Laurie can ride off in the surrey, for it is a “Beautiful Day!” This fantastic show was put together, directed, and choreographed by first- time high school director, Ann Charlton. This was Ms. Charlton’s first year in the high school and she proved that the musical is back to stay because of her effect and hard work! Pit Orchestra was directed by Mr. Ron Kalman. Lights and Sound were arranged by Mr. Bob Natiello and the super set was designed and built by Mr. Dennis Provost. Senior Tammy Weishaupt was the assistant student director. Publicity and programs were organized by Tracey Waldman. Costuming was outstandingly run, supervised, and sewn by Mrs. Dorothy Mery and assisted by Mary Ed¬ wards.

First was The Haunted Theatre by John Randall. Lor- na Carewe, an actress whose career is failing, de¬ cides to give a one-woman show at the grand the¬ atre; however, a mysterious intruder has other ideas. Second was Opening Night by Cornelia Otis Skinner. This is a comedy about a Broadway ac¬ tress who is preparing for her big opening. Her friends offer their best wishes; unfortunately, their intentions backfire. Third and final produc¬ tion of the festival was a farce by John Guare, The Lovelist Afternoon of the Year. Two people meet and have an affair. In this short play, we meet two troubled people, a man and a woman, both of whom truly love each other, but cannot get togeth¬ er because of unfortunate circumstances.

Agatha Christie’s “Cards on the Table” was presented by the Paramus High School Spotliters on December 6 and 7, 1985. This show takes place in and around London, England in the year 1935. Superintendent Battle, the lead, was extremely well portrayed by Chuck Santoro. Superintendent Battle, from Scotland Yard, was invited to a strange dinner party by Mr. Shaitana, a bizarre and wealthy collector of snuff boxes, and played by Don Chami. Also invited was another crime specialist, Mrs. Ariadne Oliver, writer of mystery novels, who was admirably played by Laura Edwards. Other intriguing guests invited to play bridge were Anne Meredith, a young seductive woman played by Sheri Fox; Major Despard, adventurer extraordinaire, played by Michael Leib; Doctor Roberts, a charming yet evil man, portrayed by Dominick Vene; and Mrs. Lorimer, a graceful and perceptive elderly woman wonderfully played by Jackie Clifton. As the evening progresses, Mr. Shaitana is found . . . dead. But whodunnit? Battle, along with Mrs. Oliver, then tried to piece together the murder and figure out the identity of the killer. Helping the Superintendent was Sergeant O’Connor, played by Greg Gordon. As the pieces fell in to place, Battle met with the doctor’s secretary, Miss Burgess, played by Arda Itez. Meanwhile, Mrs. Olivier encountered Anne Meredith’s friend, Miss Rhoda Dawes, played by Elisa Miller. Clues lead to conclusions, and with the help of Mrs. Oliver, and her psychological deduction for the bridge scorecards, Battle solves the murder and accuses the doctor as the culprit. Others in the well-performed cast were Shari Snider as Doris, the upset maid of Mrs. Lorrimer; Rody Rotolo as Mr. Shaitana’s maid, Mary; Ken Botwinick as the undercover constable, Mr. Stephens; and last but not least, Steven Alexander as Mr. Shaitana’s taciturn butler. This play was first presented at the Vaudeville Theatre in London, England, on December 9, 1981. It was adapted from Agatha Christie’s classic mystery by Leslie Darbon, and is a fairly recent play. Paramus High School’s Spotliters was one of the first companies to perform it in America, a distinction of which they are very proud. Once again, the show was successfully directed by Mr. Robert C. Natiello. Kristen Scanlon was production manager for “Cards on the Table” and publicity was managed by Mrs. Sharon W. Laurence. Sets were provided by “first time” technical director, Mr. Dennis Provost. “Cards on the Table” played to a large crowd on both nights and all involved thought it as a huge success. 140 “Assembled for murder!” “Cards on the Table” A visit to the doctor’s.

Anyone interested in participating in the pro¬ duction was required to audition in the begin¬ ning of October. Rehearsals went on for three months, from the time the cast list was posted to opening night. Spotliters are in charge of the main drama feature. For this show, the costume mistress was Mary Edwards, who did a fine job in procuring costumes by fashioning some her¬ self and journeying to New York City to rent others. Properties were provided, collected, and managed by Chuck “Battle” Santoro, Chuck also coordinated the sound with the help of Risa Finkle and Steven Alexander. Make-up was applied by a crew of eight, and led by Laura “Mrs. Oliver” Edwards. Cast members were re¬ quired to put in long hours to help build, set up, and paint the large sets. They took part in lengthy rehearsals after school, but when the curtain was lowered and the last bow taken, the result was well worth the effort.

At these meetings selections are made for the Amaranth , the magazine published by the Workshop in late spring. Ms. Angela Meyer, the adviser of the Workshop, sees the meetings as times when “students of varying degrees of interest and talent meet to exchange views on what makes good original literature and art.” Pearls of Poetry and Prose Forum Press Laurie Volpe, Editor-in-Chief, Alice Wang, Assistant Editor, Gautum Rana, Sports, Riaz Ahmed, Features, Marybeth Lamanna, Copy Editor, Arpita Sikder, Lay- Out Editor, and Elise Sookram, Art Editor — these are the editorial staff of the newspaper which has enabled the Forum Press to continue in the tradition of good reporting, writing, photography, and graphics.

This year was no different as the newspaper was awarded second place by the prestigious organization. Mrs. Ann Schlamp, adviser to the Forum Press, has done an excellent job in keeping the paper running smoothly. Even though it is her first year, Mrs. Schlamp has handled every problem with the efficiency of an old pro. With a dedicated, hard-working staff, the Forum Press has become not only the eyes and ears of Paramus High School, but also the voice of the students. While its primary goal was informing the students of what was happening in Paramus High, the newspaper’s opinion sec¬ tion gave insightful views into the fabric of the school society. High achieving students were interviewed and lauded for their accom¬ plishments. Editor-in-Chief Laurie Volpe kept the paper running at its opti¬ mum level. Aiding her were Alice Wang, Associate Editor, Arpita Sikder, Lay-Out Editor, Riaz Ahmed, Feature Editor, Marybeth La- manna, Copy Editor, Gautam Rana, Sports Editor, El ise Sookram, Art Editor, and Rich King, Photography Editor.

Opportunities to expand one’s art experience have always been offered by the Art Club. Meetings are held after school and trips are taken, al¬ lowing students to sketch their sur¬ roundings and their thoughts. Illus¬ trations appearing in the Amaranth many times have originated in this club. New York, the center of cultur¬ al activity, is a rich source of art. Several trips are taken yearly to art galleries and museums. This year, there were excursions to the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Models are invited to the school in order to broaden the experience of the members and this allows them to study the human form in more depth. Mrs. Pat DiPaolo has pro¬ vided strong support and leadership for this group of dedicated artists. Art Service Corps ...

It was formed in order to provide students with the exposure and experience of going to Broadway shows and other cultural events. Club membership varies due to the number of people who take part in the various excursions around the metro¬ politan area. Among the shows attended by the Renaissance Club were “Singin’ in the Ram,” “Song and Dance,” “A Chorus Line,” and the New York City Ballet’s “A Midsummer Night s Dream. Other shows the club hopes to see are “Cats ” “Bie River,” and “Brighton Beach Memoirs.” When they attend a show, the Renaissance Club is accompanied by some students from the two middle schools, who are interest- ed in seeing Broadway shows. Those who attend always leave the theater with a smile on their faces as well as a deep sense of appreciation for drama and dancing. l$ 164 Latin Honor Society .. . Excelsior!

Students are inducted after the comple¬ tion of the third year in German, if they have maintained a 3.6 average in German and a 3.0 average in all their subjects. For the past five years the German Honor Society has ar¬ ranged for an exchange with students from Frankfort, West Germany. Students from Frankfurt visit Paramus for one month in March, then for one month during the summer Pa¬ ramus High School students go on a trip to Frankfurt. They attend a German Gymnasium (preparatory school) and live with a family for four weeks. Participants learn a great deal about the country and improve their German. Honor Society members also tutor other German students who request help. Also, the German Honor Society has introduced the “Kaffee¬ klatsch”, translated literally as “coffee gossip”. Once a week after school students can converse in German on any topic. Participants have the opportunity to improve their fluency and increase their vocabulary in German. NATIONAL • GERMAN : • HONOR : • SOCIETY • German Exchange Trip . Since the idea became reality in 1982 the adults as well as the students have benefited from this cultural exchange in many ways. As the participants in the Frankfurt - Paramus Exchange increase their knowledge of the language, new ways of life are also shared. Language barriers need not only to be overcome in the school, but also in the home. Experiencing a different family life, attending a school in another country, and being separated from one’s family for a month are the major benefits of this program. However, the four weeks were not only spent in the classroom. In addition to family centered day trips, the participants also traveled as a group. Most memorable was the experience of a four day trip to Berlin. Six hours on a train ride through Communist controlled East Germany, a visit to East Berlin, and a moment of fear and frustration at the Berlin Wall gave the students a fresh insight into the meaning of freedom. Another group activity was a four-hour tour of the Lufthansa facilities. Highlights of this activity were a slide down the emergency chute and a chance to be in a flight simulator. In some cases the exchange has been a basis for long-lasting friendships. Many of the participants view the exchange as “once in a lifetime experience.” Herr Unger, who travels with the group and advises the students, looks upon the exchange as a unique experience to become immersed in a different culture.

Paramus High School’s President: Janet DiMurru Advisor: Mrs. Connie Plucinsky President: Kari Santino Whether you ride a hunter, jumper, western horse, or saddle horse, and whether or not you engage in horse shows or other competitive events, you will find that through continual riding and lessons your horsemanship and performance of your horse will improve. Hid¬ ing, therefore, will he a more successful and enjoyable experience for both of you. It is the aim of the Equestrian Club to provide horse¬ back riding experiences for the novice riders and to encourage the intermediate and ad¬ vanced riders to continue in their quest for excellence through literature, lessons, and films. It is of paramount importance for riders to understand how a horse thinks, and also to understand how he moves. In order to explain to the horse what he wants, the rider must communicate with him. The rider has to know something of the mentality of the horse. Let’s face it. Horses are the smartest creatures on earth at being horses.

Just as soon as the outdoor soccer season is over, the excitement of the indoor soccer season begins, This program, which is growing in popularity each year, is open to girls as well as boys, to beginners as well as veterans. Advised by coach Ernest Unger, the indoor soccer league is divided into teams and plays on Monday and Thursday nights. Indoor soccer, an intramural program, offers all those who participate the oppor¬ tunity not only to learn a new sport, but also a chance to keep in shape. For the past four years the league has been dominated by the Oriental Express team, an ethnic team traditionally comprised of players with an oriental heritage. However, this tra¬ dition of the teams of Kim, Wang, Wong, Moe and So faced a strong challenge from a talented senior team. Highlights of the season were the play-offs and six man challenge games, and the competition against our German Exchange students. j.yvV£R 1W ufil J Back Row: David Machewirth, Pyong-Chul Oh, George Hambel, Eric Kleinstein.

It was not until this year that the idea of using this theme captured the imagination of the editorial board of the Delphian staff. Using Shakespeare’s definition of the imagination as “in my mind’s eye”, the editors decided to launch “a flight of fancy” as a “journey into the imagination” for this twenty-seventh edition of the yearbook. Several major changes have been initiated. No aerial vie ft of the school has been used and the front fly-leaf contains a “definition” of the theme. Begin¬ ning in May of last year, the juniors as seniors had their yearbook pictures taken in a new form: the boys wore a dark tuxedo with a red bow tie and wing tip collar; the girls wore a black velvet drape and appropriate jewelry. Most students liked the results when they saw their proofs. Students were asked to select a quotation for their senior personals. There was a request which was granted that no longer would addresses of graduating seniors be listed. Rising costs have required an increase in the cost of the books to seniors and underclassmen. In order to meet the final payment of twenty-thousand dollars, the editors of sales had to charge thirty-five dollars for seniors and thirty-four dollars for underclassmen. In addition the staff sold refreshments at several pep rallies, dances, and theatrical productions. Fundraisers such as “Mums for Mom” at Thanksgiving, the sale of poinsettias at the Holiday season, stuffed animals for Valentine’s day, and “Little Lesters” for gradu¬ ation time were continued. Cookie and candy also were sold throughout the year. Part of the bagel sales also is given to help defray the cost of the yearbook. Ads were solicited for this year in the letter sent to all parents in the school to act as patrons. Reaction to this method has been gratifying. Helping us to further our “flight of fancy” was Mrs. Patricia Di Paolo who was so kind in supervising all the excellent art work prepared throughout this edition. Many problems seemed to beset the staff this year but through the devo¬ tion and determination on the part of our adviser, Mr. Robert Boyce and staff, we overcame the obstacles and once more the Delphian staff was able to present in June the seniors with a book which has joined a long line of successful treasure troves of memories.

First Row: Captains: Jai Sue, Jim Hornidge, John Krupp. Led by first year coach Bill Darragh, the varsity football team finished the season with a record of two wins, six losses, and one tie. This record though, was deceiving since the Spartans were playing in the NNJIL, one of the toughest leagues in Bergen County. Opponents included power houses such as Clifton, Bergen Catholic, Don Bosco, and Ridgewood. However, this did not deter them and they played admirably in every game. Praise has to be paid again to our defense which anchored this year’s team. Showing their experience and determination throughout the season, our defense allowed only an average of fifteen points a game. They were led by senior tri-captains: Jai Sue, Jim Hornidge, and John Krupp. Other seniors who contributed were; Robert Binder, Jay Papa, Mike Alesso, Joe Panebianco, Mike Servino, Robert Coyle, Barry Nowark, Brian Oxford, Greg Batafarano, Gary Ploehn, A1 Rauncher, and Tom Lynch. Not to be outdone was our offense which was anchored by seniors: John and Jim Lanari. They scored an average of twelve points a game. Evidence of the strength of our defense and offense was provided in two games this season in which Paramus crushed Paramus Catholic, 20-0, and Teaneck, 32-0. With a multitude of lettermen returning such as Juniors Mike Pavin, Tom Mays, Matt Ahene, Jim Locke, Dwayne MacDonald, Dean D’Ambrosi, and Frank Sancillio our team should have an outstanding season next year.

This season was, however, a disappointing one. Although Coach Unger considered our team the best skilled and most creative he has had in his many years of coaching, they lacked size and depth. This was evidenced in six games in which the Spartans lost late in the fourth quarter. Deserving special recognition for their performances are forward Brian Wippich (Second Team, All-League), and mid-fielders Damian Baraty (Honorable Mention, All-State; Second Team, All- League), Mike Wippich (Second Team, All-League), and Pyong-Chul Oh (Honorable Mention, All- League). Seniors who contributed greatly are: forwards Ed Oliveira, Keith Polifrone, Sharad Saini, and Eric Kleinstein; midfielders Eric Metviner and Joseph Alhadeff; defenders Scott Stoller, David Machewirth, Jay Collier, Craig Reinhart, and Kee Hoon Hahn; and goalkeepers Craig Scherer and Dieter Panzer. All of these players are commended for their performance. Next year’s squad looks promising with seven lettermen returning: Mike Zaccaro, Mike Wippich, Phil Aiello, Rob Gjini, David Pineault, Mario Puentes, and Richard Wong. In addition, great help could be provided by members of this year’s J.V. team which had a fine season.

They earned the first County championship for a Paramus girl Cross Country team and also the first All-County selection for a Paramus girl in this sport. Led by Captains Cheryl Krause and Nadine Ro¬ manowich, the team earned a multitude of individual hon¬ ors. Amy Kempt and Rebecca King were named to the first team in the league, in the Suburban area, and All- County. Romanowich was selected to the second team All- League, first team All-Suburban, and honorable mention All-County. Krause and Hiral Patel were awarded second team All-League, second team All-Suburban, and honor¬ able mention All-League and second team All-Suburban, and to round out the honors Coach Rodak was named All- Suburban, and All-County Coach of the Year. Our girls also deserve praise for their excellent perfor¬ mance in both dual and invitational meets. They compiled a dual meet record of five wins and one loss, came in second at the season opener invitational, first at the Bull¬ dog invitational, second in the NNJIL league champion¬ ships, first in the Bergen County group three meet, second in the group three state sectionals, third in the county meet of Champions, and fourth in the group three state meet. It is obvious from this long list of accomplishments that the team is of very high caliber and well-deserving of any accolades sent their way.

Coached by Brian Rodak, our boys Cross Country team finished with a 1-7 record. However their performance was much better than the record indicates. Competing in one of the thoughest leagues in the county, the Spartans fre¬ quently did not field a full team. Still, even with these odds, the team performed admirably. Captain Bryan Mis¬ kie, and team members Ed Nugent and Chris Spring re¬ corded their personal best. Our track season would not be complete without men¬ tioning the “super froshs.” Led by Mike Rennar, Greg De Pole, Neil Solomon, Steve Toscano, and Mike Clark, they finished first in the NNJIL and placed second in the county. With such dynamic talent available, it is no won¬ der that Coach Rodak expects future teams to be pure dynamite. Bryan Miskie Captain 197 Volleyball ... Setting ..

This mark earned them 2nd place in the league, and berths in the county and state championships where they reached the quarterfinals in each. Three of their four losses were to a powerful Hacken¬ sack team that went on to win the league and county titles. Our team was led by senior co-cap- tains Renee Arbiet and Elizabeth Kingsley, and senior Simone Anschel, with many players receiving individual honors.

Melanie Oxhorn, our second singles player, finished in the semi-finals of the county tournament.

After losing ten seniors to graduation, many did not expect the team to duplicate last year’s performance. However, their aggressive pursuit for excellence coup¬ led with their long hours of practice has led to another outstanding season. Their achievements include first place in the tough NNJIL League, first place in District Three, and a number one ranking in the prestigious 3-4 Bergen County Group. Special recognition should be given to these seniors: Captain Mike Gaer (First Team All-League), Captain Greg Battafarano (First Team All-League), Brian Wippich (First Team All-League), Rob Binder (First Team All-League), Jim Hornidge (Second Team All-League), Rob Coyle (Second Team All-League) and Tom Lynch. Although these seniors will graduate this year, next season’s squad looks promising with seven lettermen returning, including Steve Katz, Ken Carmichael, Rob Meehan and Jim McGinty. They will be helped by a J.V. team who were champions of the Ramsey Tournament. 209 Muscles Rob Binder Robert Coyle James Homidge 210 Men ... Mats!

This season was highlighted by a win, something the team has long been striving for. Our girls have undoubtedly increased both their knowledge of the game and their fundamental skills. According to Coach Bill Smith, the team has demonstrated an incredible resiliency; coming out every day with a positive attitude and a strong d esire to win. Led by seniors Liz Kingsley, Dawn Pascale, Marybeth Lamanna, and Jennifer Dougher, and Co- Captains Kingsley and junior Staci Goldstein, the team has acquired a cohesiveness that is a credit to its players.

Paramus High School’s 1985-1986 winter track team enjoyed a successful season despite a lack of manpower, particularly on the girls team. There are sixteen members of the com¬ bined team, highlighted by a foreign flair. Both foreign exchange students attending our school are on the team, along with six other seniors. Led by Captains Ben Mamola and Cheryl Krause, seniors John Lenari, Jim Lenari, San¬ dro Cornelia, Tara Sullivan, Joanne Stella, and Kajsa Ramslov have helped the success of the team. Highlights of the season included the boys 7th place finish at the Hackensack Spike Shoe meet, led by the consistency of Mamola and junior Duane Macdonald. Mamola specializes in high jump and pole vault, and Macdonald specializes in sprints and high jump. These two, along with Cornelia, won the Paramus Catholic high jump relay for the sixth consecutive year, and the St. Joseph’s relay for the 3rd consecu¬ tive year. Despite a lack of members the team has been very successful, outdistancing Coach Ken Van Valen’s expectations.

My dancing instructor suggested that my mother enter me into a beauty pageant. Here I was crowned “Little Miss New Jersey, 1972.” Therefore, when I was approached by Mrs. Plucinsky to enter another beauty Pageant, I enthusi¬ astically accepted. After completing the necessary forms, I was chosen, out of many other appli¬ cants, as a competitor for the Atlantic States Regional Competition. July 1985 was the date set. In Philadelphia, where the event would take place, I was introduced to the 90 other contestants. When I first arrived. I felt anxious and wanted to leave. But, I’m glad I stayed. This pageant consisted of an evening gown competition, a swimsuit competition, and on¬ stage personality segment. Finally, the scores were in! When my name was announced as the New Jersey state winner I could not believe it! It was an overwhelming feeling as they placed the crown on my head, the trophy in my arms. I took the “victory walk” down the ramp. Among some of my prizes was an all-expense paid trip to California in November where I would compete in the national pageant. In California, I was honored to represent the state of New Jersey. My week in Los Angeles was busy with pageant rehearsals and sight-seeing tours, including a visit to Universal Studios and Disneyland. For the talent segment, I performed an excerpt from A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams. I portrayed Blanche Dubois. Through the coaching and direction of Mr. Corey, I mastered this part. In fact, I could not have come this far without the support from Mrs. Plucinsky, Mr. Corey, and Mr. Boyce; Mrs. Plucinsky, for her warm enheartments and wonderful suggestions; Mr. Corey, for his ability and talent as an excellent director; and Mr. Boyce for his encouragement and continual inspiration. In retrospect, I realize that this has been an experience to grow on. I will take with me forever the thrill of competition and the rising hopes and dreams that make a winner. 232 Mary Higgins Clark Day January 14, 1986 Laura Edwards, Chuck Santoro, Miss Ruby Bishar, author, Mary Higgins Clark.
