Administration Faculty Sports Student Life . 24 . 52 . 82 Clubs And Organizations Seniors Directory Dedication At times there seem to be too many people and not enough feelings. Most of us find it a full-time job just surviving day by day. We observe, experience, struggle, and move silently through the hours, more often alone than together. We fear knowing, sharing, opening ourselves up to the scrutinizing eyes of others — others who are just as afraid. If by chance we find an individual who defies this status, one who moves among, not apart, we stop and wonder. His presence is sought out, his ideas valued, his happiness shared. He is what we desire to be, and whether secretly or openly, we wish him luck and good fortune. To know such a man presents a challenge. Dr. Thomas Candon gave us the most precious gift a man can offer — himself. No strings, no walls, no games. As a professor, he opened up a world of questions and invited all to explore. As a man, he revealed the gifts of life in generous proportions. On or off campus, he welcomed all as individuals — unique beings whose dreams, sorrows, and hopes are all equally important. His spontaneity and enthusiasm spoke through lectures and confer- ences. Whether alone or in a group, he had the ability to make a person feel his own worth, as if what he thought was important and should be said. Although he is no longer a member of the WSC faculty, he is still vis- iting this campus and its students. He gave us the chance to reach out for one another, without fear, and to grow through each other ' s experi- ences. Dr. Candon has left us with a half-completed dream, whether it is finished or abandoned becomes our responsibility. To this great man, we dedicate our book.

Sydney J. Harris Dr. Becker Do you feel there has been a change in the attitude of students, faculty, and administration in the present semester, as compared to the academic year of 71-72? Yes, we have gotten off to a good start. As I walk around the campus, students tell me that they are having a good year, and professors say that they are concentrating on their work. All in all, I have received tremendous cooperation from all of the campus. At the same time, I don ' t want to minimize the problems that this college has. But, notwithstanding the problems, and notwithstanding the memories of past problems, there is a changed atmosphere in which people are going about the business of studying and teaching. Do you feel or do you see any direction in which the college is going? Yes, I see several directions in which the college is going. Partnership in governance is one of the important directions. The college is also moving in the direction of being a multi-purpose institution in which the liberal arts become more important than in the past. As we develop our partnership in governance, we are going to find that all of the college community is participating actively in the decision making process. Do you have any advice or wishes for the students of Westfield State College? It would be presumptuous to offer general advice to hundreds of members of the class of 1973. Here are a couple of suggestions, however, which apply. Be proud of your Alma Mater. All of you should be proud of your Alma Mater. Continue your interest in Westfield State College. Be active in your Alumni Association. These activities have value both to you and to your Alma Mater. My very best wishes to each and every one. 16 17 Mr. Kirk In the Fall of 1972 it is reasonable to characterize the campus climate as different from that of last year. The atmosphere appears to be more positive as tensions have ebbed noticeably. Problems still remain. Work still needs to be done vis-a-vis the development of fair structures and procedures as we seek to make partners hip-in- governance a vitalizing force on our campus. One of the most noticeable problems — perhaps a perennial one — is that of apathy. There appears to be an inward-turning of a significant percentage of students which is disturbing. Too few are stepping up to responsible involvement. Too many are sitting back letting others carry their responsibility — letting George do it. Dean McKenna As of this first half of first semester, do you feel there is a new atmosphere on campus? Absolutely. No question about it. Do you feel this change is a relaxing one? Absolutely. The majority of students and faculty are now able to do the job they are here for — teaching and learning. The climate is more healthy. Faculty have more time for teaching and other scholarly pursuits. Students have more time for academic learning and co-curricular activities. Administrators are receiving more satisfaction from their pursuits because they now have more time to provide the specialized services they were hired to perform . What do you feel this change will do for the continuing growth of the College? It will allow growth of the College in the all-important areas of learning climate and individual needs. This change will allow this to come about; it will not bring it about; we will have to work at it; spend energy and time on it. ' But the atmosphere will allow it, whereas last year the atmosphere wouldn ' t allow innovations and creative approaches to come about. General Comments: At this stage, success in partnership in governance depends upon the cooperation among each segment of the College and respect by each segment for each other plus the direction provided by the President. If each segment works cooperatively with one another and with respect for one another and no one segment seeks to dominate another segment, our form of partnership in governance will have internal integrity and therefore, will withstand all types of pressure because of this inner strength. If the individuals elected to participate in this partnership look to the future, not the past, insist on fair play and due process for all, participate with open meetings, agendas, and discussions and strive for common interest as opposed to selfish interests, the results will be fantastic. If not, individuals will have changed positions but the situation on campus will remain unchanged. We will have substituted one form of unilateral decision making and control for another or all structure will crum ble and we will have a form of anarchy . 19 20 22 23 ■ALWARD AUCKER ■ BALL H: BARONE BASTARACHE BATES : BELl BELLKX -BILLING BOLDUC BONACq BOWSEF BROWN BULKL BUTLE CAMAR CHRISA ; OULOS CQNANT CONNOLLY CORELL ' CORRIPAN ■.

For women, there is softball, volleyball, basketball, bowling and street hockey. The men have these programs plus football. Bowling, softball and volleyball are also offered as co-ed programs. The Intramural Program is efficiently organized and run by its director, Ken Magarian. Credit is also due to Donna McGlone, Nina Nascimberi, Pat Aucoin, Martha Kelliher, Barbara Downey, Peg Emery, Nancy Hughes, Jim Ross, and Jim Moccio, who assist the program in various ways. 54 ' • « 55 56 57 bS 59 %Jtf r f M ■ flR aaB 60 S A . jx- ■•■■ A ' $ : It _ w Bb lil L ' . • fiL 61 (TOP LEFT) Pardon me, Sir . . .

For the early part of the season, the Coach started Bob Calstrom at first base, Norm Streeter at second, (co- capt.) Bob McCarthy (co-capt.) at third, Bob Berriman at short, John Trevato in right field, Gary Gathman in center, and David Whalley in left field. John Pananos, Bill Weber, and Russ Hammond led the pitching staff, while Dom Blasioli did most of the catching. nil Mi ■■MHt M0MK B ™ E 70 71 THIS PAGE: (TOP LEFT) Bob Beriman gives the Coach some advice.

Newcomers added a vital strength to the returning solid core, and with lots of practice and poached eggs, the Owls finished with an impressive 17-7 record. Coach Matt Zunic and Assistant Coach Larry French deserve a special hand for their help in making this record an actuality. The fine play of the team showed especially in such victories as the 68-66 win over Rhode Island, a 68-62 win over Eastern Conn, (who beat Westfield last year by 30 points!) and a 77-74 win over AIC. In the Boston State Game, Tim Parker scored the 1000th point of his college career. The fans, team and coach are looking ahead to the same success, if not a better one, in the challenges facing them next year. 74 THIS PAGE: (TOP RIGHT) Mike Perry, (BOTTOM LEFT) Coach Zunic has a few kind words.

This record shows athletic achievement through grueling hours of practice. An outstanding team is made up of outstanding players, and Westfield placed three members on the All Star New England Team: Tony Goncalves, Bill Kerrissey, and Jack Vilaca, and four players on the All Star Massachusetts State Team: Gary Blodgett, Mark Frenette, Tony Conclaves, and Jack Valaca. The experience of returning players will aid the team and guide them to another promising season. 79 Soccer Season 72 Westfield 6-0 Central Conn. Westfield 3-1 A.I.C.

God Falstaff ' s kingdom stretched from the Student Union to the out- skirts of the soccer field which served as feeding ground for his inebriated subjects. Entertainment by Ken Manzer, Kevin Fitzgerald and Blue Baku provided a background for the merriment which captured the cam- pus. Due to the establishment of parietals, the pick- nickers retired early but not without the feeling of being part of a successful event. Possibly the most important part of this picnic was the bridge that was formed when the members of this college community united and for- got past grievences concerning gaps between faculty, administration, commuters, and dormers. 86 S7 Octoberfest The first beer kegs of the academic year at their Octoberfest, October 28.

This semi-formal even featured music by the Destations. The unexpected turnout almost disappointed some people, but extra tickets were printed, and an addition to the main room was opened. The crowd provided a warm atmosphere, a con- trast to the cold and snow outside. Dr. Becker and a few faculty members attended, dancing, talking, adding to the warmth of the evening. The suits and ties, the long dresses, curls and flowers transformed the Westfield State Com- munity from the world of jeans and sweaters — some were almost unrecognizable. They were the same people, but somehow seemed different . . . ladies and gentlemen? A financial success, the Christmas Ball finally ended as small, inti- mate groups left to continue their private par- ties elsewhere. 94 96 - 97 Sentimental Winter-weekend began Friday night, March 2, amidst the fashion and festivity of Gay Nineties Night. Waitresses garbed in striped vest, bowties, garters, and straw hats delivered pitchers of golden brew. Song sheets were dis- tributed to every table, and As the Band Played On voices were raised in quasi-harmonious song. Dancing ranged from the conventional waltz to the hora, and the Charleston was as popular as it was in the Twenties. 98 Journey On March 3, Dancing in the Park — a journey into the 1930 ' s — rejuvenated the music and atmosphere of the Big Band Era. The Westfield Armory was transformed into a miniature Waldorf Astoria, and Les Elgart and his Orches- tra provided a smattering of novelty dances — such as the hully gully and the bunny hop — as well as soft, sentimen- tal smoothies. Buffet style dining and an icy wine punch catered to the tastes of gourmets and connisseurs who came from the dancing floor with sharp appetites and thirsts. Good food, fine music, a nostalgic atmosphere, . . . it was an evening of fun, a night to dance and a time to dream. (TOP LEFT) Higher Di, higher! (BOTTOM RIGHT) please stop looking at him !

V. O. Day re- sulted in a handsome sum for this worthy cause. Be- ginning at noon, registered partners rocked — and towards midnite, shuffled, — to music supplied by Al Jacques and WWED. The tie for first prize was strongly held by Dave Calkandrella and Diane Brown (Left, Middle), and Mike Walker and Sue Nye (Right, Bottom).

They maintain a check cashing system which functions on Mondays and Fridays, sell Peter Pan Bus Line tickets, and have in- stalled a stamp machine. A variety of goods for sale stock the shelves — textbooks, paperbacks, greeting cards, rec- ords, stuffed animals and stationary. Gift products may be purchased with the college emblem engraved, stamped, sewn, etched, or embossed almost any way. The Bookstore also has a selection of personal items. These are always well stocked, since the Bookstore is the only store on cam- pus. The services our affluent Bookstore provides are no doubt beneficial to the student body, the faculty and administration. 116 Student Union Scanlon Hall Scanlon Dorm Council has been busy this year with the institution and regulation of parietal hours in the dormitory. In addition to this, Dorm Council appropriated a sizeable sum to each section for redecoration of the lounges. Scanlon Hall residents have also been given the advantages — and headaches — of the new two-way public address system.

No matter how ignorant any person is there is one thing that he knows better than anybody else and that is where the shoes pinch his own feet and that is because it is the individual that knows his own troubles even if he is not literate or sophisticated in other respects. The idea of democracy as opposed to any conception of aristocracy is that every individual must be consulted in such a way actively not passively that he himself becomes a part of the process of authority, of the process of social control; that his needs and wants have a chance to be registered in a way where they count in determining social policy. John Dewey 121 123 Freshman Class Officers The importance of a strong beginning in class activities cannot be stressed enough. The class of ' 76, by this criter- ia, is well on it ' s way to being one of the finest classes to graduate from Westfield. The Frosh raffled off gift certifi- cates to a package store for their first event and for their second activity, sponsored a dance. Hopefully, the class will retain their vigorous effort in their future years . (ABOVE) S. Wrencek, Treasurer; P. Varley, Vice President; P. Vecchi- arello, Secretary. (RIGHT) J.

The Sophomore Class began the year with the most suc- cessful Slave Day in the history of the Slave Day tradition; freshmen were sold at outrageous prices . A lone co-ed cli- maxed the event with a price tag of $32. Total sales were $460. The next profit-making day ventured by the Class . was the Halloween Party co-sponsored by A.G.G. featuring free beer and a prize for the best costume; this party proved to be a financial success. Another beer party co- sponsored by the Freshman Class set the Sophomore Class on secure financial ground. The Oklahoma Exchange Pro- gram sent four of our Sophomores to East Central State in return for two Oakies. Looking ahead, the Sophomore Class has a solid backing for anything they decide to take on. 125 Junior Class Officers (TOP) At the Christmas Ball, sponsored by the Junior Class, the Officers paused to pose: (LEFT TO RIGHT) Kathy Butler, Diane Brennan, Charlie Brady, Becky Pina.

This typical farce by Moliere was produced, under the direc- tion of Frank Mello, by the Westfield State College Theatre Workshop. As can be suspected, the performance of Frank Salvidio was without reproof. MarkTomeo as Spanarilla, and Kathy Foley as his wife, also deserve a realm of applause for their success. The cast also included Ken Willette, Mike Smith, Gloria Luciani, Al Watson and Sue Page, in various but well acted roles . (TOP. LEFT) The truth about Mark To- meo!

A great deal of credit for the suc- cess of these performances must go to their advisor, director, and ofttimes accompaniest, Mr. L. Kenneth Manzer; and of course, the majority of the com- mendation can be given only to the girls themselves. 128 129 JSt 1 ' ° ' -, ;•;- fl| Jj BfS r ■ JH W ' ■■% I H H W J 130 % - f 131 PUBLISHED BY THE LITERARY CLUB OF WESTFIELD STATE COLLEGE ii The Businessman ' s Curse Good morning, Mr. Stein; I trust you slept well. Yes, good enough, thanks. A cold sweat began to stain his white collar as he looked out of his business grey eyes at the fat, but well kept, man who so upset everyday of his life. Take your bag, Sir? Yes, thank you. Right this way, Sir. As if he didn ' t know. Stein had reluctantly, but resolved- ly, gone that way every morning for the past fifteen years . In a sterile white room he changed out of his now sweat- drenched shirt and stylish suit and into the white, paper coveralls, a substance very common nowadays. A few min- utes passed, slowly passed, before the fat man came in again . Everything is ready now, Sir. He knew things would be, although every morning he des- perately hoped that something would be wrong, that just once something would hold things up. Once back in 1997 there had been a five minute wait, something about a bad integrated circuit — but that was all, just a five minute reprieve. He walked down the narrow polished corridor that led to the expulsion chamber. Things seemed a bit more hellish that morning, but then each morning seemed worse. All belted up, Sir? Yes. Good luck now! He didn ' t answer. That question meant that things were going to begin now. Knowing better than anyone that luck was not a variable to be considered, Stein closed his eyes and waited. Things were as they had to be now. The jolt of expulsion seemed stronger than usual, but it was exactly the same. His head was still swimming as he methodically popped the chamber door. Around him he saw acres of mud surrounded by strings of barbed wire. There were few people too, frozen in their tracks, about to move but not quite alive for the moment. Before him on the ground lay a striped, soiled prisoner ' s uniform. He didn ' t want to, but he picked it up and put it on. He had to. As he buttoned the last button on the uniform, time caught up with him. Suddenly he heard whistles and sirens, guards screaming in German, and terrified footsteps pounding the mud. Stein found himself in the midst of a group of prisoners running for the far end of the wire. For a few hours he was one of them. There was a short, automatic burp, a few bodies fell. Everyone stopped running. Back in the prisoners ' barracks, which more resembled a badly kept barn than a human dwelling, everyone was afraid. In a few hours they would all be dead. Even though these people had watched their brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers and children die, death was not a simple reality to accept. Some would be taken in groups to the gas chamber. Oth- ers would become parts of a fatally dehumanizing experi- ment. All would sleep in open graves . Stein was taken in a group going to the gas chamber. In a large room they stripped and threw their louse-ridden uni- forms into a pile. The pellet was popped in. Before the first acrid fumes emerged, time stopped. A crisp, new pair of coveralls and the capsule were just a few feet away. Stein hurriedly put the coveralls on and squeezed into the capsule. They had never let death come this close to him before. Well, how did things go today, Sir? Still paled and shaking violently, Stein didn ' t answer. The fat helped him back to the white room to change. Goodnight, Sir. Goodnight. See you in the morning. The reminder made him weep. John Lavoie 132 Cover — Marsha Martino Poetry Award — Anice Cutillo Prose Award — John Lavoie Art Award — George McNeil Holy man, praying for the redemption of my soul, forgive me my sins. Your eyes are masked with innocence turning meekly towards the earth. Clothed in solitude, you cry for the lost teachings. Perhaps we are too far apart to feel . . . My life is not your practice and your healing miracles of faith are too involved in the eternal for me. Would you listen for awhile, holy man, as I speak? I promise my words will not be empty — my story blossoms, as do your lovely sacrificial offerings. Before I crystalize my existence before you, let me speak of sunsets and burning oceans . . . I wish on stars, hold hands, and remember . . . Unlike the fiery words you throw freely, I can only touch the world with gentle fingers and pray she understands. I sit to dream, to wish for things — simple things I see in this world — happy things, quiet things, unholy things. Scenes of passion and four letter words soothe me, so forgive me my ignorance forgive me this day. I believe in mirrors reflecting love, and wistful tunes of sadness. Draw me the pictures of hate and fear you study so closely, and preach to me of salvation. I breakfast on the soul of the earth . I eat her flesh, I drink the blood of her land. Where lies my sin? Save me, holy holy man — teach me the ways of the god you trust give me the answers, bring me to the king of children.

This year, the talented men and women of Concert Choir have performed for numerous school functions, such as Fresh- man Parents Day and the annual Christmas Concert. The group also tours area high schools and churches upon invi- tation. Concert Choir is fortunate to have the forte of Ken Manzer to accompany them. They also have Carol Ni- quette as their President, Laura Lezon as Vice-President, and Nancy Ellis as Secretary Treasurer. TOP RIGHT: Carol Niquette and Linda Pead.

Its first slate of officers included Lois Romano (Pres.), Paul Hammond (V.P.), Cathy Congdon (Sec), and Sue Gay lord (Treas.). This fall, the Club put on its second production, Hansel and Gretl, under the direction of Ron White. In the title roles, Mike Bartini and Debbie Dow displayed their tal- ents, strongly supported by the performances of the rest of the cast. Also worthy of mention: the set, designed by Ron White, and the costumes, designed by Lois Romano. In the coming year, the Club hopes to continue producing performances to the delight of not only those age twelve and under, but also all those people who consider them- selves to be young at heart .

The coldness of a morning floor tingles a semblance of feeling through the head that never sleeps You think too much and yet never enough — Make it to the room where the man in the glass will gaze a t you Scrape the face, kill the animal Pick out the curls, tame the beast The tie, the noose, now tightened A white shirt and suit upon the back of a new man ' Betrayed again by daylight — I move out again. I do not trust the man I become The animal of my dreams is the real me A tosseled head of twisted tangled snakes more suits my self-image. The liar emerges into a day of work and play but never sleeps When night comes dark circles will surround me The circles will carry me back to my coffin, my cage, my death, my peace, my dreams. Where are you in this over-magnified separation? The dreams my night hold hold you against my side The careless toss of your laughing hair — another night One more escape, just for the books just for the peace of mind — IlackW The heeds Ilapf That you ilack I lack that our last canceler of sleep I miss that final substitute for dreams . . .

The play, a musical comedy set during the Roaring Twenties , was produced by Carolyn Cridler (who also acts as advisor to the ensemble) and co- directed by Murray Schwartz and L. Kenneth Manzer. The cast included many warm and talented individuals: Laura L ' ezon, Ron White, Sue Sullivan, Paul Hammond, Shelley Danielson, Mark Abert, Dave Gelinas, Paula Zawalich, Ed Healy, Tony Piaggi, Carol Niquette, Nancy Archibald, Deb- bie Dow, Nancy Page, Larry Dutra, Harvey Roazen, Ray Ni- chols, Charles Landall, Alan Shepro, Greg Cannava, and Paul Domainque. !54 ■rfflHnB MNNHKMtt THIS PAGE: (TOP) Charleston, anyone?

Consider the happiness of a man who has forgotten (for a second) that he is moving the only way there is down a one-way dead end street. Consider a man who falls off into dreams on the night before his execution. The dreams cannot change his morning. They only let the night pass peacefully. Consider a man whose imagination is sufficient to lift him above a world that tries to restrain him; a world that will win his body someday. Consider also men who do not forget, or dream; men who have no imagination, those who cannot escape. J.

The play, written by Bertoldt Brecht, was directed by Frank Eros Mello. Sets and lighting were designed by Robert R. Lehan. The cast included some new faces plus many familiar old ones: Denise Mediavilla, Debbi Andwood, Francis Guerette, Edward Veiga, Frank Salvidio, Peter Curro, Mark Tomeo, Michael Smith, Al Watson, Gary Thompson, Sue Page, Donald Gagnon, John Burke, Steve Stanton, Dick Dragon, Raymond Ourand, Nick McBride, Barry Crosby, Brent Northrup, Barbara Blinn, Millard Crump, Dianne Bourgeois, Bill Hayes, Louise Sinico, and Denise Cadieux. The efforts of actors, actresses, director, and the production crew combined to make possible another wonderful theatrical experience for the Westfield State Community. 158 159 distance; in inches on the geometric boxes of cold concrete -.iiv.e ' at- .: ' .■;-;■ ' ; ' v ' .

The blood ' s condition slowly degenerates . . Christ! Blood! Jesus Christ, I ' ll get you for that one you sonovabitch. Happy, not so little blood thirsty boys involved in their after school pastime of assault, battery and attempted mur- der in the name of School, Mother and the Head Cheerleader. The high school experience of violence under the guise of a soccer game. All right Kwolek, that ' s enough. Get back in there and play that ball. Play hard kid. Yeh, I ' ll play all right. Attaboy. Nothing like the taste of blood in your mouth to make a better player out of you. I played like I never had before. I went right out and got my kneecap smashed. A crippled hero and after only a year under the guidance of the new battle hardened mentor. How do you feel Jack? That was real aggressive play kid. I wept at the sight of my badly misplaced crimsoned knee- cap. The tears were a flaw and I knew it — so I fought them back. I was still on crutches when I took Sue out that first and last time. Jack and Sue, even I was amused at the simple combination. All the sweat, all the needless drills and then all the pain and blood had finally paid off. Even to the eager adolescent the triumph was superficial. (A little heavy pet- ting was a pretty meager reward for all that suffering.) She didn ' t like me. I knew it. She drove me home early. You ' ve been absent quite a lot lately Jack. What ' s the trouble? No trouble Sir, I guess I ' ve just lost interest. Are you still interested in that Biology Scholarship? Oh yes, Sir! I was a lousy liar, but it was a good attempt. The answer got by because it was the expected response. Well, I ' ve decided to recommend you in spite of your re- cent performance. Thank you, Sir. How ' s the leg, Jack? It ' s my knee! How ' s the knee? It ' s coming along. Still a little sore. Are you going to be able to play in college? No. I ' m sorry. Yes. Everyone was sorry to hear about my knee. People I didn ' t even know were sorry. Perhaps they felt responsible. In my eyes they were. I was doing it for them. The show was for them. When they learned I probably wasn ' t going to get rid of the limp, they were sorry again. I loved the limp in high school because of that pity. Everyone knew where the limp came from. It was significant. Only when I left the sanctuary of my premature heaven did the limp become a scar. Only when the scar ' s true significance was realized did I become visibly hostile toward the world that watched me limp. Sitting, thinking, constantly reliving it. Stuck at the first rung of a ladder I will never be able to climb . Hey John? Are you alive John Kwolek? You look like you ' re a thousand miles away. I didn ' t think it was that far. You ' re strange. You ' re not the first to notice. (I wish she would go away. I wish she would go away. Go away like the rest.) What did you think of the lecture? I don ' t listen. I never listen. You can read my notes if you want to. I wish you were real. If you were real we could make love. It was too much. She walked away. John Lavoie 162 TOP- Senate in Action. BOTTOM LEFT: Rick Walsh, Commuter Council President, I have to sit with my hands folded so they can see what I ' m doing. BOTTOM RIGHT: Chris Asch, Secretary; Dick Howard, Attorney to U. Mass; Terry Craven, President. Working with inner turmoil and a more cooperative ad- ministration, Student Senate proved to be an effective faction of the student body. Advised by Dr. Becker, Dean Greene, and Mr. Camara, Senate worked for an apathetic student body by abolishing the phys. ed. requirement and the pass-fail stipulation of withdrawal. They established the S. U. Board of Trustees, free student accessibility to legal services, information regarding off-campus housing, and extended library hours. Fighting for representation in government, Student Senate achieved most of what it set out to do as it worked for students at Westfield State and for Westfield State in the Massachusetts State College System. Student Senate 165 166 AGG The A.G.G. Booster Club, otherwise known as the Active Guys and Gals, sponsors various activities during the year. This year, among other things, the A.G.G. sponsored a carwash, and co-sponsored the Halloween Party. President Paul O ' Brien is pictured below. 167 Biology Club The Biology Club, in coordination with the Environmental Club, began the year with a coffee house open to the col- lege community in order to promote membership. Since then, the club, advised by Mr. Phillips, has brought a number of activities to the campus, and has participated in the activities other colleges have offered. The Biology Club represented Westfield State at the Penn. State Con- vention and at the Eastern College Science Conference. They have sponsored a lecture and slide show of a cross- country bicycle trip, a lecture on abortion and the pill, weekly science films, and they co-sponsored John Harris lecturing on wolf ecology. They are planning to continue to act as a source of information beneficial to the entire col- lege community in the forthcoming year.

The most well known of these ways is the bi-annual visit of the Blood- mobile, by which the Circle K Club makes available to the students an opportunity to assist the Red Cross in a most needed way — the donation of blood. Circle K Members: B. Harrison, J. Burke, J. Ryan, Z. Siec- kowski, B. Kalstrom, P. Lewis, B. Nagle. 169 Co-Curriculum Co-Curriculum brings in performers of various types in hopes of presenting a culturally -oriented program for the WSC community. This year, among others, Co-Curriculum was proud to present Louie Nye, a folk concert fea- turing Tom Willitts and Richard John- son, the Irish poet Basil Payne, and a rock band, Swallow. 170 Economics Club Advised by Dr. Russell Bellico, the Economics Club exists to allow its members to present and discuss those pertinent social issues which are intimately affected by economic manifesta- tions. Within this framework, the Economics Club sponsors col- loquia, speakers, and trips for its membership and the student body at large. !72 Film Society The Film Society exists to cultivate the appreciation of the film as an art form and to offer an opportunity for self-expression through film. A number of films are exhibited to acquaint the student with the best work in this popular art form. The films are chosen for their critical acclaim, for their importance in history of the form, and for the reputations of stars and directors associated with them. History Club Anne, Joann, Pat, Steve, Connie. The History Club, advised by Dr. Kaufman and Professor Shannon publishes the Historical Journal of Western Massachusetts, compiled of research papers of the History and Social Science Departments. The Club also sponsors speakers covering various topics of history on a regular basis. Speakers are brought in from off campus, or are members of the campus themselves . 174 International Relations Club President Mary Lou Pyra, Constance Chandler, and Miriam Morse. The International Relations Club once again distinguished itself and Westfield State by traveling to New York, where they represented the United Kingdom in the Security Coun- cil of the National Model United Nations, held at the Statler Hilton Hotel from the twenty-third to the twenty-ninth. Westfield placed in the top five of the one hundred and seven- ty-three competing colleges. This is the second consecutive year that Westfield has placed among the top contenders under the direction of Dr. Frederick Harling. 175 Kahuna The purpose of the Kahuna Motorcycle Club is to promote general interest in and safety in the sport of motorcycling.

In the Spring of 1960, the Iota Iota Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, a National Honor Society in Education, was installed at Westfield State College. The honor society recognizes students of exceptional merit in the field of education. In addition to awarding this honor to deserving students, Kappa Delta Pi extends its good will and talents to the people of the Community. Last fall , the honor society held a Halloween Party for retarded children, and a dinner party for the aged at Christmas time. 177 Lambda Iota Tau Lambda Iota Tau is an international honor society of literature which was founded on the Westfield Campus in the Spring of 1970. Membership is available to junior and senior English majors and minors who have com- pleted at least twelve semester hours in literature beyond English Compo- sition, obtained a full B average in their English courses, and achieved an overall academic average to place them in an upper 35% of their class . If an interested student meets these requirements, he then submits a creative or critical literary effort in support of his application for membership. In addition to being a formal recognition for academic excellence in litera- ture, Lambda Iota Tau entitles members to its publications for life: LIT, a predominantly undergraduate annual periodical which publishes the so- ciety ' s annual bibliography of master ' s theses in literature, and The Lambdan, and annual newsletter. 178 179 180 181 Outing Club The members of the Outing Club share a unique interest in na- ture and a deep love of outdoor activities. The Club sponsors camping trips, hiking, canoeing and rock climbing to all those on campus who wish to discover the great outdoors. 182 1S3 Philosophy Club To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, and trust. Thoreau Photography Club To take good pictures is to capture the beauty of the world and emotions of its special moments. To be a part of the Photography Club is to be better informed of the latest equipment and photographic processes, so that students may develop an excellence in picture-taking. (MIDDLE LEFT) Chris Worth. (BOTTOM LEFT) Dr. Jekyll? (TOP RIGHT) Mr. Hyde? Psychology Club The primary purpose of the Psychology Club is to foster an active interest in psychology both vocationally and avo- cationally. Each year various opportun- ities are offered to enable members to observe and participate in programs of psychological interest. Current pro- grams include recreational assistance at the Youth Service Board and work with the Westfield Drug Council. Pro- grams are designed by the members to meet their interests. Also, every Spring, long-standing club members attend the Eastern Psychological Association Convention. In addition, the club pre- sents a variety of speakers, films, and tours for the benefit of the entire stu- dent body.

Sex Education And Counseling Service A Sex Education and Counseling Service is now open for all students wishing to become more aware of Birth Control methods and their efficiency. The Service also provides referrals in the case of unwanted pregnan- cies, and the opportunity to talk confiden- tially about sex-related problems of all kinds, as well as sponsoring movies, speakers, and panel discussions for the campus . Student National Education Association The Student National Education Association is a supplementary organization to any education major here at Westfield State. The SNEA member automatically becomes a member of the Massachusetts Teachers Association once he or she has paid his dues. Throughout the course of a year SNEA sponsors a coffeehouse, speakers, films on education. Some of the better features include: A First Year Teacher Comes to Rap ; The Leadership Training Convention held in March. We also have a Mock Interview in which actual students go through an actual interview with a genuine superintendent from an area school system. Education Day has been a great drawing card in the past. High school students are given a taste of college life thru SNEA. The annual Bike-a-thon is a fantastic attraction for SNEA members. Last year $500.00 was raised as a result of this event to help retarded children of Massachusetts. Along with all of the above activities a member ' s dues also pays for a monthly magazine, Today ' s Education , a pamphlet called Impact , and also a subscription to a magazine called Massachusetts Teachers. SNEA sponsored a trip to Bridgewater on December 2, 1972. Those members who participated in the Education workshops at BSC, benefited greatly from the activities of the day: Cardboard Workshop, Inflatable Classroom, Open Education. STANDING: J. Kareta, J.

W CLUB Health And Strength Club MEMBERS ONLY The central emphasis in education should be placed upon the unity of the total person and the interdependence of all as- pects of self should be recognized and accepted . . . Hence, the attempt to actualize your individual potential and aid in making you as wholly educated a man as possible is a very worthy goal. Include in it experiences which contribute to your attaining your highest level of vibrant health, skill, joy, and creative use. Barry C.

This year I was especially fortunate to have a wonderful group of talented, ambitious people working with me.
