' . . • , HB ' tv ■ [SSI mm V T A S TRUTH CONTEMPLATED Mid-twentieth century verity Has seemingly become a rarity: The political leaders ignore it The bigot-breeders abhor it, Tax payers understate truth, Tax appraisers exaggerate truth. Doctors tend to white-lie it, Hollywood won ' t even try it. Science and Philosophy search for it, People look to Church for it. Lawyers either use or abuse truth, Dictators can ' t even excuse truth. Opportunists have to alloy truth, Book burners try to destroy truth, Neurotics rationalize it, Playwrights dramatize it. Madison Avenue often will gnarl it To sell a toothpaste, promote a starlet, Self-styled censors erase truth, Gild truth or simply replace truth. Has truth gone the way of the other lost arts? Stained windows, the drop-kick, pyramids built in parts? Or is it just obscured, hidden away, In the supersonic, electronic Disney-land we call today? No answer this, but in September, ' 59, When we take our place on the educational line, With thirty bright-eyed kids accepting without discredit And saying — It must be true — my teacher said it! Let ' s hope that Horace ' s Nuda Veritas , Will be the motif of the class. Edward Shea TEKOA £ ; J ' (III % mSm ) if k m. • r t . PUBLISHED BY THE CLASS OF 1959 STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE WESTFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS 1 1 ii 1 ■M 1 nil THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE These are difficult days for those in the teaching profession. While great advances have been made in providing adequate salaries, much more needs to be done to improve the professional status and monetary reward which its services so deservedly merits. On no group does the future of our great country so vitally depend for its existence than on the teaching profession. We need doctors for our physical well being, lawyers to provide us with legal advice, engineers and scientists to provide us with the knowledge to advance swiftly in the mechanical and nuclear fields. But it is education which must provide us with these doctors, lawyers and scientists as well as economists and business men. Hence our whole society rests upon the teacher at the various levels of education. As the teachers you must remember from day to day that you are educating the men and women of tomorrow who shall carry to further greatness the advances we have made in every field of endeavor. Yours is a tremendous responsibility. I am sure that each member of the class of 1959 will accept it and will prove true to the great traditions of Westfield. Dr. Edward J. Scanlon It is the glory and good of Art, That Art remains the one way possible Of speaking truth, t o mouths like mine at least. Robert Browning DEDICATION What does Art mean to you? That was the question put to us by Mr. Farrington in the final examination of our Art appreciation course in that Paleolithic period when we were freshmen. The question was heavily weighted; a wrong answer impossible. Now, four years later, we ask the question, What has Mr. Farrington, our advisor, meant to us? The question is again heavily weighted. The answer again cannot be wrong, but surely will be inadequate. Patience, understanding and unobtrusive guidance have been the basic colors with which his brush has painted the four years of progress on the academic canvas. The tones he has used have been the good humor, the ready encouragement, the sincere interest he has always shown in our problems and progress. We only hope that when the picture is complete, the artist will be as satisfied with the results as we, the grateful recipients, are. ' DEANS and FREDERICK S. CONLIN A.B., M.A., Ed.D.

In September 1955, we came to Westfield as a group of bewildered freshmen slightly apprehensive of what lay ahead. After initiation, however, we assumed a reasonably stable place at Westfield. In December we elected Dido O ' Connor, President for the Freshman year; Sandy Fagnani, Vice-President; Coleen Meade, Secretary; Dave Sullivan, Treasurer; and Carrie Bartlett and Walt Garbacilc to the Student Government. Our first class social function of this year was the Freshman Ball. We also presented the Fresh- man Variety Show. We made this show so successful that it was a clear demonstration we would amount to some- thing. At the end of the year elections came around again. This time we elected Dido O ' Connor, President; Sandy Fagnani, Vice-President; Natalie Coelho, Secretary; Dave Sullivan, Treasurer; Carrie Bartlett and Pat Dever to the Student Government. In 1956, after the summer vacation, we returned to school. As seasoned Sophomores we lorded over the lowly frosh during initiation days. The Get-Acquainted Party was a successful event, with entertainment provided by our class. Class officers elected were Jerry Foley, President of the Class; Eileen Heelon, Vice-President; Arlene Egbert, Secretary; Dave Sullivan, Treasurer; Jim Kane and Stella Wiernasz to the Student Government. Returning for our Junior year, we began the busiest year of ou college careers. We were ushered into the practical aspects of teaching via the Training School. We received our rings, with a new seal depicting a quill, book and globe, representing universal truth, which were de- signed by Pat Lavelle. At the end of our Junior year, we re-elected the same officers for our Senior year; and Carrie Bartlett and Stella Wiernasz to the Student Government. After another summer vacation, we embarked on our Senior year. Our final social function as a class came early in February: The Winter Carnival. The Mardi Gras Ball, which was held on Saturday at the Chateau Harmony was a great success, thanks to the efforts of the entire senior class, who put in many hours of hard work. Their work paid rich dividends. Sunday afternoon again saw us at the Dorm Hall, this time for a Jazz Concert. As the Winter Carnival drew to a close, we reluctantly realized that all too soon our four years at Westfield would be over. 15 GERALD FOLEY 150 Lukasik Street Fairview, Mass.

The most memorable event of the Junior year was practice teaching. During eight weeks at the training school they were bom- barded with new and foreign terms: pro- cedures, U.B.P.P. ' s, master plans, G.LO. ' s, I.G.O. ' s, and teaching notices. They now have a glimmering of what the profession of teaching means. Immediately after the Thanksgiving vaca- tion the class of 1960 began to polish up plans that had been in preliminary stages all year — plans for the Christmas Ball. Due to the efforts of Chuck Smith, the dance was a great success. If the Juniors retain the spirit they have shared in the past, next year should see one of the best Senior classes ever to graduate from Westfield. 117 SOPHOMORE Row 1, left to right: Pauline Paquette, Isabel Bull, Audrey Kelly, Lois Anderson, Christine Brodeur, Sandra Aubertin, Lois Bosworth.

Elected to office were: Stanley Strycharz, Presi- dent; Rose Lee Kirkham, Vice-President; Carolyn Daniels, Secretary; Maria Spinelli, Treasurer; and Kenneth While and Ed Scagel to the Student Government.

Highlighting their social calendar was the Freshman Ball, held May 8, at the Roger Smith Hotel in Holyoke.

During the course of the academic year their tasks involve supervising and co-ordinating those activities which concern the entire student body. With personal integrity, group effort, and individual responsibility as its aims, our council continues to strengthen the bond between students and administration.

The Nearness of You ' The annual dorm dance was held on October 18 this year under the supervision of Joan Shay, a Junior, who was general chairman. Since hula hoops had descended upon us earlier in the fall, it was decided to integrate the idea into the theme of the dance under the title of Hawaiian Holiday . A major feature of the dance was a hula hoop contest held during the intermission. The dance proved successful both socially and financially and it is safe to say that the Hawaiian Holiday was enjoyed by all. SOPHOMORE HALLOWEEN HOP Tom Cove finally worked his way to the top as decoration chairman. Take me to your Leader, I want a ticket for the Hop. The Sophomores sponsored a colossal success this year in the presentation of the Halloween Hop. The students enthusiastically supported the hop which was the first costume dance held at the college. Prizes were awarded to those who had the most original and comical costumes. Various games were played and music was provided for dancing. The atmosphere was enhanced by mysteriously masked faces, flying witches, scrawny scarecrows, pumpkins and skeletons scattered throughout the gymnasium. With the co- operation of the indispensable committees and the support of the student body, the dance was most successful. CHRISTMAS BALL A very successful event sponsored by the Class of 1960 this year was the Christmas Ball, held on Friday, December 5, 1958, at the Wycoff Country Club. The colorful decorations added to the festivities of the season and dancing was to the musical strains of the Dick Hamilton Orchestra. Hitting the line at the Xmas Ball QUINTET QUEEN DANCE The annual Quintet Queen Dance, sponsored by M.A.A. was held on November 21 in the college gym. Dick Hamilton and his band provided the music for the dance which launched the basketball season. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of Dorinda Costello, of the Junior Class, as basketball queen. Left to right: B. Yvon, P. Dooley, D. Costello, E. Trzcienski. WINTER CARNIVAL What could be more festive to precede the solemn Lenten season than a Mardi Gras Ball, which was held on Saturday night, February 7. The Chateau Harmony portrayed a miniature New Orleans feast with the gala masks, colored streamers, balloons, and the great crowd of happy-dancing couples. The evening was hi-lited by the traditional crowning of the king and queen — Bill Crean and Peggy Shea. Many chuckles (our pardon to the faculty) were afforded at the Student-Faculty Volleyball game which successfully opened the carnival week-end on Friday night. To conclude this carnival of all carnivals an exciting jazz concert was held Sunday afternoon in the Dormitory Dining Room — a perfect closing for a perfect Winter Carnival Week- end.

A We began work on our 1959 Tekoa choosing Truth as our theme. Truth, as sincer- ity in our work, as genuine desire to be honest, and truth, the abstract conception of what is right. This book is published to provide a lasting record of our four years, so they will not be left in the background, but preserved for the future as a vital part of our mem- ories. This book is a result of ef- fort and sacrifice. Our work is completed — we now await your verdict. Literary Staff. Left to right: C. Donnelly, W. Moloney, S. Fagnani, A. Egbert, R. Lagimonier. . K .
