WARD 2 in HE LIVED CATHOLIC EDUCATION A PRIEST - A TEACHER - A MAN HIS LIFE RADIATED THE ENJOYMENT AND SECURITY OF FIRM BELIEF IN PRINCIPLES HE RESPECTED EVERYONE - HE FORGOT NO ONE HIS LEGACY IS THE PRIVILEGE OF HA VING KNOWN A CA THOLIC MAN OF ACTION MA Y HE REST IN PEA CE. 3 DEDICA TION DIRECTOR An outstanding coach ... A hard working director . . . A devoted teacher . . . All these characteristics are blended into Mr. Charles R. Bibaud’s warm, out-going personality. No wall exists between his manhood and our youth. To some men friendliness is merely fanciful, but to Mr. Bibaud it is a reality. He has instilled in our lives an “esprit-de- corps” that should be a goal for future students. It is to Mr. Charles R. Bibaud, who has fulfilled our ideals of the Christian gentleman, that we, the Class of 1965, dedicate our yearbook. TEACHER COACH 4 CHARLES R. BIBAUD 5 MOST REVEREND BERNARD J. FLANAGAN BISHOP OF WORCESTER 6 The Class of 1965 is the class of the Liturgical Renewal. There will be other years in the future: the year of the new buildings, the year of academic upgrading, the year of the new curriculum, the year of improved activities, the year of cultural stress, and the year of anything else worthy of the attention of a school that is alive, unsatisfied and growing. However, nothing will ever be more significant than our life together the first year we tried to enter fully into the spirit of Vatican II. I pray that every graduate may go from Assumption with a keen appreciation of the Liturgical Constitution that went into effect when he was a Senior. He knows this means more than group singing, lay participation or ritual changes. He knows it means more than personal interior growth. He knows it means more than a group living in some vague bond of brotherhood. He knows it means leaving the Prep School community alive in Christ and ready for life in a new community to which he will bring Christ, His truth and His grace. In many ways, the class of 1965 has been what we hope the boys of tomorrow will be. You have been a good class: idealistic, serious in your work, willing to give of yourselves, aware of others, opened to Christian education. Your real worth, no one can appreciate today. All we can say is that the beginning has been good. Wbat you do in the future, in a different community, will testify to what you started at Assumption. We believe that He Who rose from the dead Jesus Christ , The Son of God Is the living bread Who abides with us and In us. 8 LA I v 1 3 y ff rri V I l ' A 1 jr a j ■ y . 9 FA CUL TY EDGAR BOURQUE, A.A.

Henry T. Fr. Ildefons Fr. Gerard Fr. Gilbert Fr. Philip Fr. William Mr. Bibaud Mr. Brunelle Mr. Scannell Mr. Trudeau Walter P. Suchon Business Manager M E M David S. Abusamra Richard J. Mochak Co-Editor Co-editor 68 Edward Bonnici Photography Editor James P. L. Kenney Biography Editor Daniel R. Cavan Biography Editor This is it — the yearbook of the Class of 1965, of Assumption Preparatory School. If anything, it was the late start on the planning of the book that has made it what it is; the increased pressure forced us to exclude any frills, retaining only that con¬ tent which pictures the reality of Assumption Prep’s life. Exhaustive is the adjective to describe the book’s totality. The Staff made use of, or at least tried to make use of, every idea and suggestion. This is why the book contains numerous firsts: first in color, largest, dedication standards, junior editors, super¬ latives, supplement, class will, and especially, the tightening of class participation and interest. Without class co-operation this book would have remained merely a record. Now, it represents a record of memories, lasting and clear. Only those students who entered our makeshift headquarters in the Lecture Hall and Room 258, and only those names men¬ tioned on the opposite page, know and appreciate our travail. Because this book is more personal to us, the Staff, than any¬ one else, it remains for the readers’ appreciation to insure us of the book’s success. Terrence R. D’Emilio Layout Editor John J.

Playing for their last year against high school teams, they showed that they cou ld compete next year with the prep schools. They played powerful Auburn High on even terms for more than a half, but they lost it. They white-washed Commerce High 14-0, with Ronnie Koppel and Jay Feeley crossing the goal. Against St. Sebastian, Roger Moriseau made 17 unassisted tackles. The season, a disappointing 1-5, finished on a bad but also good note. The team was thrashed by potent Classical High, but sophomore Dick Dodge gave promise for the future by running a kick-off back 90 yards for a touchdown. Senior Jay Feeley won the M.V.P. award and Frank Schiavone won the Coach’s Award. Rich Lane, Dick Dodge, and Steve Syl- vestro were the outstanding junior, sophomore, and freshman re¬ spectively. R.

Can¬ celed in 1963 because of a lack of support, Cross-Country rebounded sharply this year: there were more than twenty boys running for the team. Much credit for this remarkable change must be given to Coach Bibaud who did much to encourage participation. Against strong competition the Monks earned a respectable three and four record. By taking five of the first six places against North H.S., A.P.S. gained its first victory in three years. The high-point of the season came when John Power, ’65, crossed the finish line to assure Assumption a 27-29 victory over arch-rival St. John’s High. Two records were set this fall over our own home course, a grueling 2.4 miles. William Trudeau of David Prouty H.S. set the course record of 13:56; and Paul Murphy, ’65, established the record for an Assumption runner at 14:03 against Classical H.S. Seniors on the team were: Brian Connolly, Terry D’Emilio, Leo Laverdure, John Power, and MVP Paul Murphy. Underclassmen who insure continued success are: John Bouffard, ’66, Ronald Menard, ’66, Roger Cote, ’67, and Michael Raymond, ’68. CROSS-COUNTRY FIRST ROW: V. Perreault, L. Vadnais, J. Raymond, T.

That’s the finest time of day; When your legs are spent and tired, When the sky is turning gray, When the autumn air is stinging And your feet upon the ground Shuffle leaves that snap and rustle With an autumn lovely sound. With your sweatshirt on your shoulder And your track shoes in your hand, Walking home with rival runners In a weary, friendly band. When the afternoon is ended, When you trudge toward locker fights, When the race is over only To be rerun winter nights. Then you’re coming home from running In remembered autumn months; It’s life’s finest tired feeling But it only happens once! - DICK CALISCH 87 BASKETBALL School enthusiasm was roused by this year’s basketball team at APS, as more and more students wanted to see the Monks, their own Monks win. High not only in talent but also in bal¬ ance and in team spirit, the 1964-65 Monks were led by co¬ captains Jim O’Brien, hero of Assumption’s District III triumph over Shrewsbury High, and Walt Suchon, high rebounder and point-getter throughout the campaign; Pete Karpawich, the man who nearly carried the entire Monks team to victory on his own shoulders in the early-February 74-63 loss to St. John’s High, and Joe Hurley filled out the other two senior spots on the squad. Mike Laska, John Bouffard, Pete Cragan, Tom Gray- man, Dick Lane, John Gabriel, Bill Brown, and Paul Granger represented the juniors, with Jack Mullahy, just a freshman, also pointing to continued success for APS next year. After put¬ ting up a game struggle against a mammoth Roxbury Memorial team at the New England Catholic Tourney in Lawrence, the Monks then turned in brilliant upsets over fine teams from both Thayer and Milford before entering the District III play-offs, where they topped Shrewsbury 71-62 for Charlie Bibaud’s 200th victory as Assumption coach, before being eliminated by St. John’s 57-52, in the final clash of a rivalry that had lasted since the mid-1940’s. The Monks then finished with easy wins over both Marianapolis and Wilbraham, to close out their sea¬ son with an excellent 20-6 record.
