For some, it is to grow to be rich and famous, and be listed among the annals of time with the great leaders of the day. Others will choose to express themselves through the arts, so that their beauty may mingle with the minds of men. And still others may seek a reputation of service to the community — some for commend- able actions, others by notoriety. Still more will seek the glory of the warmth that they give to the ones they love, and this is all of heaven and earth for them. Yet no matter how a man chooses to live, the choice is his by right of his existence. Each walk of life is equally important; the balance of all of them is the harmony of humanity. Each man is a part of the nature which surrounds him — part sun, and moon, and stars, — and in this way, we are all a part of each other. Let no man say, therefore, that one is better than the other, or that one be given more or less respect, but all of us, be loved as we love. Walk with me 4 I ■i ill ill ill ii I r!

RANDOLPH President Greetings to the Class of 1974. ' We celebrate in these pages the basic purpose of a dynamic institution of higher learning, Westfield State College; that purpose being simply the expansion of knowledge. Knowledge comes in many forms and is enhanced in many ways. Knowledge is sympathy, charity and kindness. It is the foundation of both the love and the principles of human, liberty. Through classroom, field and club experience comes the many forms of learning — activity. Students, faculty and staff con- verge and join in the continuing process of burning up of error to set free the light of truth. This book is recorded experience and a product of history, of which reasoning and belief, no less than action and passion, are essential components. View, read, remember and enjoy.

In ability to perceive things as they are as well as to tell it the way it is; in social concern as well as willingness to give social service, present day col- lege students are superior to their predecessors. It is a good thing that they are because they face king size problems that will tax their capabilities. — Harrv Becker. 19 %PmB$ 5. Robert Brown 9. Joseph Comerford 13. George Curtin 17.

Westfield ' s winning record of 6 wins and 3 losses in dual meets, deserves recognition for a fine season. INVOLVEMENT is the word for participants and spectators, who join together in the mutual desire for success. 33 Lacrosse The Lacrosse Team ' s season proved to be one of great ex- citement and interest. Despite the record of two wins and nine losses, the games were played against such highly com- petitive teams as Brandeis, Boston State and Plymouth State. This year ' s co-captains were Bich Correia and Jim Reagan, with the most valuable player selected as Tony Viecheli. Next year ' s tri-captains are Rich Correia, Tom Shannon, and Emett Ashe. 34 35 Winter Track T- V HHHHHH 36 This year ' s team had a hard-working and reward- ing season.

In doing so, the team sent seven men to the All New England meet attesting to Westfield ' s improvement in this sport since it ' s beginning five years ago.

The little Hiersh in action! 40 A team can only be as good as its players, but the added spirit of cheerleaders can heighten the excitement and enjoyment of any game. WSC has always been proud of its cheerleaders, and rightfully so. The hours of practice they spend each day can be seen in their showmanship and spirit on the court. Together they work to raise the crowd to its feet and to spur their team on to victory. The Varsity and Junior Varsity cheerleaders alike are of key importance in keeping WSC a winner, now and in the future. 42 Cheerleaders Anne Carmody Marguerite Foster Donna Chauvin Joanne Szostkiewiez Melinda Hanzarack Capt.

HE Ken Manzer The gift of musical ability is one that can only be heard to be appreciated. To bring life from notes on paper, to capture the es- sence of a composition, and to spark the imagination of an audience is an art few can master. Ken Manzer is such an artist.

The freshmen orienta- tion program, with the co-operation of all factions of the col- ege community, is designed to ease these apprehensions by providing information, academic or emotional guidance if needed, and social activities. The finest innovation in this year ' s program was the presenta- tion by S.E.C.S., and guest speaker Nancy Callahan.

Randolph as thirteenth Presi- dent of Westfield State College took place on Sunday, April 28, 1974, at the Springfield Municipal Auditorium. Educators from all over New England, including the Presidents of a dozen area colleges were present to participate in the installation of the new President and celebrate the renewed effort toward the goal of quality higher education for Westfield State which this occasion represented. Dr. Glenn A. Olds, President of Kent State University and for- mer President of Springfield College, the keynote speaker, gave a moving speech on Leadership in Today ' s Higher Edu- cation. Citing the desire on the part of today ' s students for moral committment. Olds recounted the telephone call from the mother of one of the indicted national guardsmen in which she spilled out her anguish. I told her a university is dedicated to truth; there will be no healing at this place until we know the truth. ' ' Dr. Randolph s inaugural address, The Strategy of Change, dealt with the realities of today ' s higher education as he sees them in terms of budgetary restraint, growing competition for students, and the new constituency of workers, housewives, retirees, and minorities who must be attracted to higher educa- tion to keep it growing. The Inaugural festivities were highlighted with a most success- ful Inaugural Ball held on Saturday evening, April 27, at the Tekoa Country Club, where everyone danced to the swinging sounds of the Westfield State Jazz-Rock Ensemble. ■ ■ H flH K - « l - tU zL H I . 1 ' Pk h I BAM i KiHl •; ' ' —5 ■ 145 S.E.C.S. The purpose of S. E. C. S. is to offer students a center on cam- pus capable of providing information and counseling in such areas as veneral disease, birth control, and human sexuality. Referral services to clinics and doctors are offered as part of the organization ' s work. S.E.C.S. has sponsored a series of films and lectures in the past, as well as a highly successful abortion debate between students and faculty. Hopefully S.E.C.S. will be able to expand its facilities and activities in the future, offering even more to students. It is the main concern of S.E.C.S. to discuss and counsel students in several issues and problems. Meet- ings and debates as seen on these pages deal with the questions of birth control, abortion, and similar topics. 147 Third World 148 ■ A ill IJttf I i H M n r T fc The Third World Organization was developed to promote awareness within the members and community of West- field State College to the cultures and heritage of the minority races of the world. The membership of this or- ganization is composed of the black students of this cam- pus. Awareness is shown through activities, such as, art festivals, concerts, lectures, inter-collegiate festivities, and a cultural library. It devotes itself to the educational factors of minority in- dividuals. Being able to read is a major part of develop- ment in an individual ' s education, but being able to wit- ness through sight, sound, touch, and taste of another cul- ture ' s life is the greatest education to exist in today ' s society.

An open bar, hors d ' oeuvres, and the fan- tastic sounds of the dynamic Desata- tions, set the pace for the several hundred people attending the Ball. Fac- ulty members and administrators alike, including Dr. Randolph, joined in festiv- ities sponsored by the Junior Class, and danced the evening away in the true spir- it of Christmas. 155 Awards Banquet The elegant decor of Chez Josef was once again the setting for the annual Student Senate Awards Banquet, held on the sixteenth of May. The nights festivities included fine food and drink, an excellent musical entertainment, as well as the award ceremonies But this year s unique feature « as not to he found on the table or from the po- dium — it u as on the dance floor in the form appropriately dubbed the bump . No prizes could be given for the best in bumping ; but the awards were in the smiles of the dancers. Senior Ball Although the Spring Ball is usually one of the gala affairs of second semester, this years Senior Ball was sadly disap- pointing. The Willow Glen, which host- ed the affair, was closely packed with perturbed Westfield State members, annoyed with constricted bar service and empty hors d oeuvres pans. An excellent band. Calliope, saved the evening of May 10 from almost total disaster and even brought a few smiles to the disheartened Senior Class officers. ■ ,......-.- ' .. -•- :■•■ ' ■, V til f •;■■ Jf-h- .. Ml fSMW@kX There are mirrors to reflect the world ' s beauty and sadness — all show a unique side to the same puzzle. We are each mirrors, bright with laughter and love, giving more light to others. Still we are fragile glass figures who can be scratched or shattered. Each mirror pos- sesses many qualities. Beyond the physi- cal, there is an unexplored part, hidden and often ignored in favor of the visible. Within these walls, lies the very soul of the mirror. It is easy to make believe it does not exist, and yet to deny it, is to deny the mirror life. For the light of each of us comes from within ... it glows from our essence and is so easy to forget. To give a mirror life means understand- ing what and who you are; to see what you mean to others and yourself. Once a person realizes this, he is a beautiful home of light, outshining the sun. We are each mirrors — see the warmth and worth inside the shiny glass. 160 Abel, Susan Albano, Phyllis Anderson, Glenn Asch, Christopher Ball, Jeffrey Barnes, Carolvn Abert, Mark Amell, Janice Anderson, Jean Aubuchon, Diane Balthazar, Gary Barnes, Edward Albano, Marie Anderson, Christine And wood, Deborah Baker, George Banas, James Barry, Louise Bartoszek, Joseph Bauer, Anne Baumann, Charles Bean, Roxanne Beauregard, Frederic Beauregard, Jacquelin Bedard, Cynthia Bejune, Beverly Bellantuoni, Theresa Benedetti, Lenore Bennett, Ellen Benson, Todd Bergeron, Michelle Bessette, Janet Bessette, Joyce Bigelow, Diane Bigelow, Grace Bilodeau, Therese Bishop, Charles Biais, Julia Blasioli, Dominick Blinn, Barbara Bock, Diane Bohanon, Janet Boilard, David Boisselle, Linda Bollas, Cheryle Bongiovi, Charles Borders, Betty Borowiec, Stacia 161 Life you amaze me . . .

Time has passed me And the lazy days are turning into shadows It ' s been worth the time I know Though there were days I didn t want to own. The people and their moods are all so different and that ' s what makes it good. But here and there and back again — each times offered me a little bit more, and I love the free and easy charm of living. I ' ve learned through the faces — I ' ve taught and been taught — Some friends and enemies come and leave Sometimes without ever knowing why. I ' ve been a part of the place, part of the laughter and brawls. Still, I ' ve been me, though not-all-together you. I feel things my way and, that ' s how I ' ve come to live.

Michelle To look at people optimistically and hope that they are human, this is my goal. If people were to care about each other, you could work out almost anything. The people of Westfield State College could make this place a real good school, if people would just get away from the little things which aren ' t nearly as important as the serious questions which need probing and action; health issues and academics for examples. The college has acquired many new changes and policies since we entered in the fall of 1970. In fact, our class has probably seen the most change in the history of the college. The underclassmen should take a lesson from what our class has done, and seen in these past years. They should not take lightly the advan- tages gained in these past years. Student rights, alchohol on campus and visiting hours in the dorms, were so hard for us to fight for. The struggle did exist — I hope the students keep this in mind and try not to take these things for granted. There will be more students coming in the fall, and many years follow ing. These new students along with the existing Westfield State Stu- dents, have the potential to make this school the really fine place that it can be. I hope they do so. I ' d like to be proud to call WSCmv Alma Mater. Phillips, William Piaggi, Anthony Piasta, Mary Ann Pienkowski.

It is the last formal meeting of the senior class. Fully- dressed in caps and gowns, faculty, adminis- tration and seniors parade into Dever Audito- rium for last minute instructions and best wishes. 27 members of the senior class were presented Wisdom and Merit awards. Class advisors Mrs. Butler and Mr. Ralph were also presented gifts for their dedication to the class of ' 74. Graduation It rained — it stopped — it poured. Diplomas were given out and not given out; parents were lost in the shuffle for shelter. All the planning of the class officers was all washed up on May 26th. But yet, it may be the most memorable of all graduations held at Westfield State ... no matter what those memories may include. ■ba 1  V - JF ir 1 Kt f •  ft f '  _- ' Wfc 1 1 POLICE - 183 184 185 186 x - gjM t JUFA ) SB   ! - r 1 r ,4 Jp 1 4 i ki jk .

Dan Koziol was always there when there were those rush jobs that needed attention. Our thanks to him and the Studio. The American Yearbook company has once again provided West- field Sate with the finest quality yearbook at the best possible price. Don Lendry, our account representative, spent many an evening laboring through pages helping us meet tho se crucial deadlines. American Yearbook Co. and Tekoa 74 have a valuable asset. We are indebted to him for his efforts. Teko a The creation of a yearbook, as a journal of the activities of the year, requires the co-ordination of three equally important segments of a yearbook staff — layout and design, photograph) and liter- ary. Tekoa 74 was very fortunate to have outstanding representatives in each of these fields. Be- cause of their cooperation and genius, and that of their staffs, the Tekoa ' 74 was entered into Na- tional Competition in five areas. As a staff, we were not satisfied in just finishing the job we started out to do; we improved, added, subtracted, altered; we left many suggestions and ideas for hopefully, an even better book; Tekoa ' 75. But a wonderful thing happened on the road from September to May; we became more to each other than just staff members — we fought with each other, faced our frustrations together and we helped each other. We lifted our glasses to each other in celebrations . . . and when it was all over we looked back and laughed. There is too much to say about our advisor, Mr. Kirk, who did more for us than can be written on any one of these yearbook pages. We can neither praise him highly enough, — nor say thank you enough times. As editors, we became close enough to the Tekoa staff to realize and implement the talents of these staff members. We hope that you have enjoyed this book, almost as much as we enjoyed working with the people who created it. Carol Herlihy Paul A. O ' Brien Co- Editors- In-Chief 199 200
