In the computer annex, young physicists were converging to analyze Newton’s laws. For the first time, students selling tickets to the olympic size rooftop swimming pool were given the principal’s blessing. Does this sound extra-ordinary?

FLAIR IN COMME STUDENT LUE FUNNY THINGS HAPPEN AT OWN THINGS BIG EVENT - OUR Bigger and better than ever! No, that’s nota line for acommercial; it’s a phrase which accurately describes our ‘Big Event.”’ The second annual variety show, which took place on April 8, displayed promising talent in dance, music, singing, and drama. A few comedians emerged from the event, too. Emcee for the second year ina row, Gary Begin, nicknamed ‘‘Tex,”’ started the show off on the right foot with his professionalism and antics. Many memorable acts come to mind. The song ‘“‘Double Vision,”’ performed by the Mulrey twins, Richard and Robert, was clever and sounded ‘‘twice’’ aS Super. Keren Bendiksen sang, ‘‘Make It With You” with heart and soul, and who could forget the replay of the Saturday Night Live skit, “‘Lisa and Todd” by Tim Hall, Mary Beckett, Linda St. Hilare and Paul Kelly? Mr. Kalkus got into the act, too. Dressed in flannel shirts, he and Bobby Bergh sang the amusing tale of the ‘Tennessee Bird Walk. ’ Then, Bobby ‘winged it’’ with ‘‘Sweet Baby James,” which he dedicated to his parents. Churning out a rowdie rendition of ‘Freebird’ was Our own rock band, “‘Viper,”’ featuring Sean Clancy, Mark Diamond, John Geisslemen, Ralph Germani and Chris Roberge, closing the program. The Big Event showed us who had the courage to ‘‘do their own thing”’ in front of their peers and produced some Super stars not to mention a fun, spirited night! Ol’ New Orleans revived with the brassy sounds of the jazz band, featuring David Doucette, Mark DiGirolamo, Daniel McGuire, Christopher Lefebvre, Raymond Boucher, Linda Morrisette, and Margaret Healy. “Where are you goin’?

SHARING SPECIAL NIGHTS “Dim the lights” tonight and let’s get down and boogie! There would not be many people ‘‘cold as ice’”’ dancing to the many bands which vibrated through the cafeteria on Saturday nights. The annual Father- Daughter dance was no exception. On April 27 and 28, girls and their dads gathered in the cafeteria to jockey for space on the dance floor while twisting, turning, and swaying to the music. “It's easy dad! Just follow me. One, two, three, kick, side, step, turn, and repeat!’’ Laughter and merriment filled the air as daughters tried to teach their dads the latest disco steps. Spring-like fever permeated the room; bouquets adorned the tables as corsages blossomed on dresses, wrists, and in hair. Excitement mounted to the moment when the queen of the evening was crowned. On Friday night, Junior Nancy Nerney led the grand march as queen, while Senior Topping the evening for Nancy Nerney and her dad was Nancy's selection as queen of Friday night’s Father-Daughter Dance. Susan Desjardens received the honor on Saturday. “Hand me up that streamer and I'll attach it to the ceiling.” In one afternoon, two weeks later, freshmen and sophomores changed the school cafeteria into a room of light and color for their evening, the Freshman-Sophomore Social. Couples at the semi-formal event held March tenth danced the night away to t he music of ‘‘Breezing,”’ featuring Mr. Dillon, Band Director. Ecstatic teenagers were not the only ones on the dance floor, though. When the band struck up the beat of “The Hustle,’ Sister Agnes and Sister Helene put on their dancing shoes and showed everyone a few new steps. The theme, ‘Just the way You Are,” a current Billy Joel hit, set the mood. Each person realized throughout the celebration of the evening that they were forming their own unique individuality, their own flair, just the way they are. Dads and daughters ‘‘hop to it,” Mr. Ciallela, Denise and Marlene P opeo, Mr. Popeo, and Kelly Ahern ‘‘get a kick”’ out of the Bunny Hop at the Father-Daughter Dance. 12 Suspense builds as members of the queen’s court, Stephen Lounsbury, Catherine Sheehy, Andrée Fontaine and escort, Clayton Lennartz and Marie Charron anxiously await the outcome of a ‘‘nutshell game.”’ Great things come in small packages, discover Laura Maxwell, Kathy Lincoln, Bonnie Begin and their dates.

At the prom, we spotted friends the minute we walked in; joked and reminisced. The buffet was delicious, but who wanted to eat when they could be up boogying? Then the queen and her court were chosen. Marie Charon looked radiant; she and her court, Laura Maxwell, Kathleen Lincoln, Bonnie Begin, Catherine Sheehy and Andrée Fontaine took their places in a perfect evening. ‘Always and Forever, each moment with you...” “You may step down.” “If no one has any further questions, the jury will recess to pass averdict.”’ “Your Honor, we find the defendant guilty as charged. She obviously had a good time at the prom.” Face worth a thousand words; crowned queen for the night, Marie Charron gazes starstruck as her dream comes true with date Clayton Lennartz. Wallflowers? Never at a prom! Swaying to the music, Laura Maxwell and escort, Darilyn Judge and Clinton Oxley, Patricia Mahoney and Steven Felici, Patricia Temple and Steven Lee, with Andrée Fontaine and her escort experience the joy and glamor of an evening shared by not just two, but all.

Aunt Jemima would have been proud of our football team. They abandoned the gridiron for the griddle to coordinate the Pancake Breakfast-Car Wash which raised money for summer football camp. Guest speakers, refreshments, and informal conversation with faculty highlighted meetings of the Mothers’ and Fathers’ Clubs. Together, they sponsored the spaghetti supper held October 13 and the Thirty Week Club. While other students in diocesan schools left early Thursday, May 3 to enjoy the long weekend, many students here appeared in uniform to assist at the Teachers’ Convention. Speakers were stationed in classrooms while the entire gym was filled with displays of textbooks and teaching aids. One drizzly afternoon in May had students running in circles. Why? To show their spirit in the Jogathon. When different clubs sponsor an event, they know it will take a lot of time and effort. But they also know it’s worth it. Participation makes us special.

Following the distribution of awards and honors, a surprise gift for parents and seniors climaxed the evening. A slide presentation, ‘‘A Happening — Bishop Feehan High School’ to the tune of ‘‘Honesty,”’ “The Way We Were,” and other teen tunes delighted all hearts. Though the program lasted only fifty-five minutes, Mr. James Brennan, Mr. Kevin Kinsella, and Mr. Raymond Morrissey did months of behind-the- scenes work to prepare it. Camera- popping Robert Bergh contributed many of the slides and Mr. John Levis was a superb narrator. Parents and students thundered their appreciation with a standing ovation. With Pomp and Circumstance, 214 seniors took their places in the auditorium on the evening of May 29. For the largest graduating class in the history of the school, the hall was packed with parents, relatives, friends, faculty and students. Even the stage overflowed with faculty, invited clergy and administrators. Presiding was Bishop Daniel A. Cronin; Father George Coleman, Diocesan Superintendent of Schools, brought greetings and congratulations to the graduates. Valedictorian, Andrée Fontaine urged her classmates to seek peace with justice. While Bishop Cronin awarded diplomas, flashes popped like fireworks from proud parents’ cameras as they snapped their additions to the family scrapbook. The farewells were said. The seniors were gone, “The bang was a whimper, The blaze was a glimmer, The rest is silence.” Justice, equality, and peace are themes presented by Andrée Fontaine in her valedictory speech. Class President Ann Pollis welcomes the parents to graduation exercises. Anxiously awaiting their turn at the podium are Steven Jordan, Katherine Cronin, and Catherine Sheehy. Having composed music and words, Catherine Sheehy plays her song, ‘‘The Rest Is Silence.”’ Senior chorus members Patricia Birch, Sue-Ellen Beaudet, Joanne Currier, Ellen Cronan, Ann Pollis, Susan Bankert, Katherine Cronin, and Andrée Fontaine make their class song truly special. a re: Reflecting on the past four years, Kenneth Sousa, Lee Smith, and John Sarrasin await their call to the auditorium.

Something Special To Write Home About Olivia Newton-John may sing all she wants that a, ‘“‘summer fling don’t mean a thing,” but summer still remains a special time for everyone. The first few days bring a heady sensation of being free of homework and studying for a whole two and a half months, but vacation quickly settles in as a reality. Summer brings opportunities not available at any other time of year, such as swimming, sailing, water skiing, sun bathing, biking, and Camping. Part time jobs from life saving or camp couselling to doughnut making or dishwashing gave students the opportunity to view the workday world and earn a little money at the same time. Others attended summer enrichment courses in area high schools and colleges. Cape Cod, Maine, New Hampshire and Newport were the most popular summer vacation retreats. New England beaches offered recreation although the gas shortage kept many of us close to home. There were those, however, who weren't as limited by a low gas tank. These lucky individuals travelled across the United States and even Canada, visiting many fun and exciting places. Ben and Amie Hodgkins, and their parents, made a month long trek to Alberta, Canada. Hauling their Camping trailer over 4000 miles and seven states, the Hodgkins visited Niagra Falls, the Great Lakes, and Yellowstone National Park on the way. Amie, who loves the mountains, simply enjoyed the beautiful Canadian landscape. They say a picture paints a thousand words; if that’s the case, Amie has over 100,000 words in her photo album. Check it out sometime. Robin Castagnola, on the other hand, has different kinds of souvenirs. Last July, Robin’s journey spanned our whole continent when she visited Hollywood, California. There, she took a tour of Universal Studios, which included an encounter with a shark, son of Jaws, and a full-sized avalanche, complete with car-sized rubber boulders. Fun as this was, Robin feels that the highlight of her trip was seeing a taping of the television show, ‘‘Taxi.”’ Afterwards, she met its stars, and even has the autographs to prove it! Other students devoted their time and energy to the needy. Paula Monahan, a junior, was a volunteer Counselor at Camp Easter Seal in New Durham, New Hampshire. During its two month session, she coached retarded children in swimming, hiking, and other recreational activities. Paula feels that it was a very rewarding experience. On a similar note, Ann Riley worked at Wrentham State Hospital as a volunteer. Her job consisted mainly of bringing the youngsters to church, playing games, and planning special activities such as cookouts. Ann believes that her time has been well spent and satisfying. Tom Hunt had a splashing summer! He spent his vacation at the beach as a lifeguard, working two months almost every day at Martin, and Sister Mary Enda relax at John Carroll University now that their book has gone to press.

Ten statuettes on the mantlepiece, each carved in the likeness of a guest. Ten people murdered, one by one, each according to a nursery rhyme. “Ten Little Indians,” a mystery by Agatha Christie. Whodunit? Mr. Alan Ksen. No, he’s not the murderer, he’s the director! There’s a subtle difference; a murderer destroys life, while a director creates life on the stage. “Ten Little Indians” was a landmark production, Mr. Ksen’s first, and Feehan’s first straight drama presented to the public. Rehearsals and set construction spanned almost two months. Cast members practiced late into the night; many sacrificed hours building the elaborate set, finishing it, and supplying props. As weeks dwindled to days before opening night, the pace became frantic. “Ten Little Indians” had become an all-consuming endeavor for those involved. Tension mounted and tempers shortened. Many students sought extensions for their schoolwork and activity deadlines. Parents found themselves distraught over the production. Opening night, anxious faces peered from behind set pieces and wall hangings. First glances were disappointing, yet, within moments, more than 150 patrons were seated. Cast members gathered in the girls’ dressing room where warm words, smiles and hugs were exchanged. How far they had come; enthusiasm followed apprehension after auditions, until cast lists were posted. Then came months of hard work which brought everyone close together. The dozen people on stage represented a huge family of actors, makeup artists, lighting technicians, a set construction crew, costume and prop people with many Jacks-of-all-trades. Now that the preparation was complete, here was the enthusiasm and apprehension all over again. In the scenes which followed, arrival at the island, the presence of the voice, first murders, a violent storm, mounting suspicion and suspense to the revelation of the killer, it was evident that the theatre will not be the same. Break a leg! Five Little Indians, Ingrid Meszoely, Yvonne Gunning, John Motyl, Paul Amirault and Peter Tedeschi, overshadowed by likenesses on the mantlepiece, await their fate with suspicion of each other. Justice prevails as the unlikely murderer, Judge Wargrave, Paul Amirault, is led away by Officer Peter Blais in the final scene of Ten Little Indians. After dinner cocktail proved lethal for Anthony Marston, David Paquette. Witnesses to his death were Diana Sheehan and Jane Lynch. “You don’t know Melancholy Baby?”’ an indignant Miss Brent, Yvonne Gunning, chides David Paquette. “Full cast onstage, no matter what condition you’re in!” Between scenes, Mr. Alan Ksen gives pointers to Jane Lynch, Yvonne Gunning and David Paquette. Resurrected characters taking bows are Paul Amirault, David Paquette, Paul Barber, Ingrid Meszoely, Peter Blais, John Motyl, Jane Lynch, Richard Couto, William Walsh, Yvonne Gunning, and Peter Tedeschi. Getting a breath of fresh air, Sister Carolanne leads Brian Dubuc, Jamie Condon, John Procopio and Phinheas Barnes back to class after the Flashback assembly. Giving recognition where it is due, Sister Faith presents Patricia Kirby with an award for her involvement in the Drama Department. In reflection, Edward Legare, Katheryn LaPorte and Stephen Healey prepare to proclaim the Good News at the school Mass for vocations. 28 Speaker, Father William Costello shares a personal experience of his growth with God. Sister Suzanne Beaudoin was chairperson for the program. Vocation panel of Father Joseph Paquette, Brother Marcus Turcotte, and Sister Francine Filipek convince students that vocations are not just for people with their titles. Brn a GRAB BAG OF EVENTS Nine hundred voices screamed questions about their schedules. Student Council president, Thomas McDonagh, led students in saluting an invisible flag. Mr. Paul O’Boy declared, ‘‘Even! would not introduce two students who were prepared to make mea presentation.” Where else could all this happen, but at an assembly? These events sometimes overshadowed the true purpose of assemblies. The student body met as one, not separated by floors or homerooms. Assemblies proved more effective in presenting awards and information than interrupting homeroom chats over the intercom. These breaks from the daily routine were welcomed by students and teachers alike. ‘Ferdinand, he like to smell the flowers .. .’’ The Boston Shakespeare Company performed a mixture of ancient folktales, modern verse, and Shakespeare on our stage, displaying their versatility in such roles as, ‘‘Monkey.”’ Assemblies were also a perfect mode of sparking involvement. Students were urged to take part in the March of Dimes Walkathon, a twenty kilometer effort to prevent birth defects. ‘‘F stands for foolish, the way you feel when the picture taken the first day of school appears in the spring x aah Actors battle with cloth poles as they act out adventures of, ‘‘Monkey and the Jade Emperor.”’ Hand is quicker than the eye, but the eye was quick to catch onto the secret of this trick. Magicians are members of the Boston Shakespeare Company. ...’’ Mr. Christopher Servant added laughter, spelling out the ‘‘ways”’ of buying a Flashback. Vocation Awareness Week was introduced in an assembly during which a diocesan priest, religious priest, a Brother and Sister each gave a short presentation of his or her life style, followed by class comments and discussion. Students gathered also to celebrate Masses on holydays, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Bishop Cronin and area priests concelebrated with Father George Bellenoit to bring Christ's influence into our daily lives. Assemblies! Where else? 29 30 Holiday for a Humbug “Old Marley was as dead as a doornail. This must be completely understood, or...” All right! We know the story; we’ve seen it a hundred times. However, Christmas wouldn't be the same without Dickens’ fanciful, ‘“‘A Christmas Carol.” Each year this tale conveys the meaning of the season and delights viewers around the world. Ebenezer Scrooge has become as much of the holiday tradition as mistletoe and tinsel. On December 15 and 16, Mr. Alan Ksen combined style and a touch of humor as he updated the Victorian romance to modern day Wall Street. The conversion wasn't easy. Backstage, as Musical Director, Kay Sapita, led the cast singing the Lord’s Prayer; many recalled the complications of the past two months. Chaminade players rented the auditorium for their production, ‘‘The Pear! Fishers” with only two weeks before ‘‘A Christmas Carol’’ was to be performed. Rehearsals were delayed and the set constantly taken Not rich, but very happy, ghost of Christmas Present, Stephen Healy, visits the Cratchit family Moira Sheehan, Deborah Raymond, apart and stored off stage after blocking. Many precautions were made for the safety of those on the multi-level stage. Flourescent paint outlined each raised platform insuring that no actor would fall off during a blackout. The flash marking Jacob Marley’s exit was carefully controlled for Michael LaPlant’s protection. At first, cast members were nervous about such things. After constant practicing within the confined spaces, students assuredly mounted the set. With a constant beat, rhythm and melody, ‘‘A Christmas Carol” came alive for those onstage as well as for those in the audience. The concert band made its debut with thirty minutes of spell-binding entertainment. Mr. Dillon conducted such varied pieces as, ‘‘White Christmas,”’ ‘‘Riffin’ the Blues, ”’ ‘‘The Sea Monster,” and the ‘“‘Teddy Bears’ Picnic.” Tradition of the play was introduced by ‘“‘Christmas Song,” which left the holiday spirit lingering in the air. Scrooge, David Paquette, swallows humbug as the ghost of Marley, Michael LaPlante, appears clanking his ponderous chains.

Ebenizer Scrooge, the only person who, in his youth, delighted in the rumor of their being no Santa Claus, Anne Moore, Cindy Sandland, Theodore LaPlante, and Joseph Castro, ‘‘deck the halls’’ of Fred’s house, as the ghost of Christmas present, Stephen Healy, leads David Paquette to the scene. Scenes of Christmas yet to come, undertaker Darren Henault, laundress Ingrid Meszoely, and cleaning lady Yvonne Gunning sell their plunder to Black Market Trader, John Motyl. OUT OF UNIFORM We're being invaded by alligators! No need to panic, however; they are completely one inch from head to tail and they are complete with red, blue or green scales. Some alligators travel incognito hidden by a blazer, oxford, sweater or a combination for a layered look. More courageous ones venture into being openly seen on a plaid skirt or lapel. What is the origin of all alligators, one might ask. No one can remember any class releasing wild alligators in the hall before graduation. They are the product of the Izod fashion fad. Anyone wishing to have an alligator for their very own should ask for details at their local department store. Don’t Shamrock spirit, which even the Attleboro Fire Department couldn’t dampen is clearly evidenced by the rowdy turnout at the bonfire rally.

Meanwhile, students try to spice up the monotony of green by using the old favorite, the argyle. Socks of multicolored diamonds give the uniform a new look. Individuality is evident in clothes and also locker doors. Like a silver lining behind a rain cloud, students cover the inside door with a rainbow of colors. Collages of magazine clippings, snapshots and pinups decorate a once cold, brown locker. When the clock strikes eleven at a student council dance, the night is not usually over. The fun has just begun. Students pile into their souped up sports cars and head for the McDonald’s of Plainville. This practice is so popular, many compare Saturday night to a can of sardines, the once traditional family restaurant turned into a traditional teenage hangout. If an attendance of students from North Attleboro is evident, some daring ones begin a roaring verse of the Alma Mater. This is usually followed by either a ride around the dining area in a high chair or a contest to see who can steal the most napkins and straws without getting caught. Nothing delights these ‘‘maturing”’ young adults as much as getting a happy meal and comparing secret prizes. Alligators, argyles and happy meals: only a few elements of absurd, after-hours fun! Waiting for a nde, Anna DiTullio finds a safe time to sit on the steps and study, no danger of bells, followed by a horde of trampling students. Impromptu sparring outside the boys’ locker room between Joel Levis and Richard McDonagh leaves Donald Sharer wondering who'll be drawn into the match next. When you’re hot and tired like Lawrence LaPlante, Arminda Francisco, Christine Lambert, and Melissa Towe, “Mr. Lemon’”’ comes to the rescue. Skateboards come out of cellars and attics to become one of the most popular outdoor activities — and they’re fun, discovers Michelle Mona as she maintains balance rounding a curve.

LOL, 33 Put your dukes up! Feehan’s first boxing bout was a successful fundraiser for the Grundy Memorial scoreboard. Opeming the 50s : “Did you see that interception? What a great play! Exhausted excitement gripped the five, six or eleven players on the court and field. Long practices and tough competition bound them together; they worked as a solid unit, each inevitably dependent upon the others. Their spirit filled the air and it became alive. From the bleachers, nothing was impossible for the team in green and white. Those on the bleachers became part of the team, cheering, screaming, lend- ing bursts of energy when the score was 36-38 with eight sec- onds on the clock. From the teams themselves, anticipation grew to the final moments of triumph or defeat, but whatever the outcome, efforts were never unrewarded.

It’s finally time to put all that one has learned and practiced up against tough competition. Forget about the shin splints, strained ligaments, and pulled muscles — at least for the race. The team is counting on one’s drive and determination — hoping it will lead to a spectacular individual performance. And for Feehan it usually does. Anthony MacDonald, Mark Tarsa, Robert Bergh, and Gregory Gaudette, as seniors led the team to a fine season's record of 7-3. Their encouraging words and all out efforts were there at the right times. Coaches, Daniel Kiley and John Arruda were also there to give that little extra push. Time, hard work, and sacrifices are a big part of every season. Feehan boys are ready to give whatever it takes — and will continue to be champions. Through the air flies Robert Bergh putting extra effort into his long jump attempt. “Go around them,” yells Robert Bergh to Peter McKay as they try to avoid the North Attleboro track men who have a hard time recovering the baton. “| must get these steps right,” says Mark Gaboury as he prepares to release a 115 foot throw.

It was Feehan’s last chance to win it. We had been underdogs all through the meet, but nothing mattered except for this last race. It was up to four girls — and they ran their fastest. Each leg was as close as it could have been, with just seconds between handoffs. Debra Schmidt was the anchor for Feehan, matched against Debra Duarte, Dighton— Rehoboth’s best. The hand offs were synchronized perfectly; it was up to the two Debra’s to determine the victors. We had no need to worry. Our own Debra Schmidt glided past her opponent without batting an eyelash. Feehan triumphed again. Individual accomplishments during the season included the record breaking run by our co-captain Sue- Ellen Beaudet in the 880, the powerful hurl of the javelin by co- captain Debra Schmidt and the fantastic times by Tracey Cavanaugh and Robin Wegerdt in the mile and two mile runs respectively. All of which posted new records, achieved in the 1979 season. It was a fine season for Coaches Thomas Glynn and Mary Lou Petti, who along with the girls, enjoyed many good times — and had much to be proud of.

The boys and girls’ tennis teams combined this spring for a 24-6 record. The boys, led by co-captains Sal Germani and John Bezak beat Attleboro High School twice in league play. This was the very first year Attleboro did not win the title. Several members of our tennis teams were cited for their outstanding success.

Great talent and individual leadership carried the team through close matches over Dighton-Rehoboth and Portsmouth Abbey to carry on the sparkling Feehan tradition. Edward Shannon and Edward Legare both qualified in May at Pocasset Country Club on Cape Cod to participate in the State Schoolboy Golf Tournament at Chicopee Country Club on June 6.

One sided contests, drive, determination, and fury prevailed; first, in practices — then on the court. Each individual gave all that she had in order to come out on top. Fourth year coach, Mrs. Nancy Mowry, guided the team into post season play held at Milford High School. Spiking, bumping and digging with everything they had, the girls encountered stiff competition but still fared well. Coach Mowry, although graduating seven seniors from the varsity team, sees the continuance of still another winning tradition for Feehan in girls’ athletics. Power surges from the arms of Paula DeYoung, as she pushes for the game point. “This is it,’’ thinks Jeanne Bessete as she aces game winning serve.

Placing in four out of four competitions is no easy task — but the Feehan cheerleaders are always striving to be the best they can be. Their moderator Mrs. Karen Brennan and Captain Joyce Bertone sparked the Smamrockettes through 1979, leading them to a second place finish at Norton and a third at David Prouty. Taking first place easily in the Diocesan CYO competition led them to a second place finish in New England, a Feehan first! Their spirit was not just limited to competitions, however. The Feehan cheerleaders energetically led the crowd at ten football games along with twenty basketball games. Limited gym time forced them to prove the theory that one can do it, if she really wants to. The 1979-80 squad, captained by Carla Battista, has already started off with a bang. They beat rival North Attleboro in a competition held at Agawaru High School by placing third.

Also, with the re- organization of divisions, many new rules were instituted that changed the outcome of many meets. These rules dealt with the outcome of the meets. One such meet was the non- league with rival North Attleboro. After the first five runners from each team had lifelessly passed the finish line, the score was tied at 28-28.

Even though the harriers seemed to be at the short end in many circumstances, they did surprisingly well with their division | competitors. Junior Keven Southwood was elected to the Southeastern Massachusetts Division | All Star Team. The Cross-Country team was directed by the coaching of John Arruda, and was led by the valiant efforts of co-captains David Popeo and Thomas McDonagh.

Gaudette was up in a matter of seconds but the other runner was two hundred yards in front of him. He picked up speed and closed the gap to about one hundred yards. Then, it was up to Joel Levis. Levis ran his hardest and finished only 25 yards behind Dimon! This shows the kind of determination and perseverance which is present in this team.

They came from behind as underdogs and rose to the very top, not only in their league but quite possibly in the state! Who made up the starting line up? Who rose above all? No one in particular, they worked together as one! Each individual had great potential and great talents; together, they made a team which was undefeatable. For example, look on February 20, at the Attleboro game, the explosive Shamrocks let out some fire. They burned the Attleboro team with the score of 13-2. And, as is customary, every single player in the roster contributed in some manner. The Shamrocks have been skating on smooth ice, and had a smooth time clinching the league championship. So smooth and accurate, that through 19 games (16-2-1), they have some 133 goals, and against Attleboro they placed 50 shots on goals. What a team! What a season! What players! The hockey team will be entering state competition and will surely glide through! Anticipating a win, Coach Vincent Fagone looks optimistically over his team. “Fooled him,”’ says Michael Cassidy as he slaps a shot past the goaltender as teammate Kevin McGrath gets the assist.

Last year’s cagers were 11 and 4 in regular season play, and qualified for the post season tournament. This year the Shamrocks had great expectations looking for another Division Title. Even with Bryan Lynch, the lone returning senior, and one returning underclassman starter, Coach Edward Gagnon could not be less than optimistic. Having lost 8 hoopsters from the previous years, the young team based its efforts on superior teamwork and consistency. Their successful season was largely due to the performances from Captain Brian Lynch and junior sensation, Mark Schmidt, who was the Southeastern Massachusetts Conference Divison II leading scorer this season. Superior passing by Gerald Lavallee and text- book perfect shots, enabled him to be selected along with Schmidt, to the starting five of the Divisional All Star Team. Richard Basil, Timothy Guillette, Christopher Doherty and John Killion sold out through the whole season giving 110% towards a total team effort. With just one graduating senior, leaving behind a season’s record of 17 and 4 and a talented bench, the future looks promising, and will greatly aid the Shamrocks’ quest for a state championship next year. 59 Girls’ Varsity Basketball: First row: Tri-captains Lott, Maryann Marcoux, Kristine Redfearn, Cynthia Laba, Robin Kelley , Christine Cibotti, Susan Barbone, Francis Lambert, Katheryn Coach Christopher Servant.

School RECORDS Smashed In SEASON CLINCHER Look at the smoke coming from the Feehan basketball team! The first match up of the game was Christine Cibotti against Norma Souza of Dighton-Rehoboth. Their quest was the jump ball! Feehan controlled the tap, and fiercely ran down the court and sank the lay up. D.R., then gained possession of the ball; but the quick moving Shamrock’s defense regained possession of the ball to SWISH it in again. For the remainder of the half, the scoreboard was consistently registering points for Feehan. BINGO! At the half, the score was 41- 20. This was a new school record, for scoring the most points in that given time period. The rest of the game was an awesome sight. Baseline shots, halfcourt, and 25 footers were all going in. lt seemed as if our girls could do no wrong. The final score was 81-40, setting a new school record for the most points scored in one game. Also, another school record was set for the most players to reach double figures. Some questioned, ‘“‘Where did this surge of energy come from?” No one knows! But for sure, coach Christopher Servant would like to get his hands on the secret for an everlasting power source. Just a few words from Coach Servant’s fluent vocabulary motivated his girls toa victory. Hard work pays off. Edward Legare expresses pleasure at seeing his test grades.

Studying took place at odd hours, on buses, in homerooms, at lunch, while waiting for rides, before rehearsal, after practice. More work was just around the corner. We made the most of it.

Accept a Peaceful Challenge Touring a newspaper plant, such as the Providence Journal-Bulletin, inevitably leads to the editor's room. Upon entering, one sees all the typewriters, books, magazines and other literature disorganized but definitely categorized. Entering Room 104, the English Resource Center, a similar picture meets the eye. Sister Enda possesses all magazines, books, pamphlets, slides, and prints needed for Humanities classes, which frequently meet there. Amid the workshop atmosphere, though, anything might turn up, including a live, cooked lobster which Sister brought in, not for a lunchtime delicacy, but to explain the importance of understanding relationships of ‘‘parts which connect.’’ Humanities, as well as the dramatic arts, seek to encounter man’s progress through literature and theater, a stethescope listening to man’s heartbeat. A less frenzied but no less intense atmosphere prevails in the Religious Education Center, with courses such as World Religions, What’s Now About Forever?, and Gospels, plus freshman and sophomore classes. Opinion, discussion, and creative projects lead students to strengthen their spiritual understanding as Christians. Different classes, buildings and even different atmospheres all have the same outcome, education of the whole person. 65 “Have you ever thought about visiting a Castillian village?’ Let Mrs. Drobnis be your guide. inane HATER Fe ce ee 66 Teaching aids such as filmstrips and overlays prove useful to Sister Pauline Goodall in her Read-on class.

A wide choice of electives range from Shakespeare to Journalism; some teachers aimed at interpreting literature, works by famous authors, while others sought to develop the talents of authors sitting before them in the classroom. A two year foundation of grammar, from which students graduated with a Warriner’s text, gave them the House basics to build on. Foreign language which would appear to be the exact opposite of the English department, actually is very closely connected. When faced with going from English class to French, Spanish, or Latin, the grammar rules and often the teaching approach are the same. Both English and Foreign Languages also include literature, culture, and history, giving the students an interesting, well rounded method of approaching languages. ‘“‘Who’s Don Quixote?” Touring Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts with Mrs. Eleanor Kenney, gives students Eric Riess, Kerry Riess, Robert lwuc, Susan Wisniewski, Doris Murray, Anne Moore, Michael Healey, Lynne Fuller, Michelle Gasson, and Robert Legare insights into the Classical Age.

Studying the history of our country, its founding principles, foreign and domestic policies, and constitution helps us to be secure in our third century, while interesting people and happenings lead us to realize history is more than a dull look at dates and places. American History and World History gives freshmen and sophomores this basic knowledge. Juniors and seniors, however, are as much concerned with what is happening today in the world. They get a better understanding of modern man through Sociology and Psychology courses. Topics such as working mothers and care of the elderly are the subjects of reports or discussion by students who learn about themselves, while researching the lives of others through the years.

These Burbles dwelled in great glass and iron cities. Each citizen had a place in society. Some worked in factories and some tended the fields; some were scientists and some were inventors; there were those who taught and there were those that were taught. Life was not too complicated and most of the Quabellians were content. But the young Burbles were not. In their adolescence, they were searching for their identities; in their anger, they placed the blame on the schools, society and technology itself; and in their ignorance, they regarded the pursuit of knowledge as a big waste of time. One day, the youths gathered together for a council. There they decided to run away from the cities and form a society of their own. It would be their Utopia. During the meeting they made up governing laws and regulations and set them forth in a constitution. This official document contained long laws and short laws and even a few medium ones, but the primary legislation was found in Item |, Section |: Schools are hereby pronounced illegal and unethical. The practice of science in any form is also strictly forbidden. Armed with their new constitution and a lot of confidence, they left the cities to search for the perfect place. After along trek, they finally found a beautiful island that would suit their needs. A unanimous vote decreed they would settle there. However, the young Burbles ran into difficulties at once. First, no one knew the slightest thing about the environment. But they remembered that science was impractical, and built a shelter on a nice, sandy hillside, where cornerposts were driven in easily. This was their perfect place. Evening approached, and the Burbles searched for material to build a fire. An enormous felled tree was less than fifty yards away, but they did not have the strength to move it. Someone remembered laws of physics, but that was science, and science was illegal. Small twigs would do just as well. Unfortunately, they could not get the twigs to catch, but chemistry, too, was strictly forbidden. ‘‘A fire doesn’t matter,’ they said, ‘“‘this is our perfect place.”’ During the night, a sudden torrential rainstorm came up, and they were forced by the collapse of their shelter into the driving rain. Then, in the cold, dripping darkness, they realized how much they had taken for granted. So this is Utopia! It was then that they admitted to themselves that both science and knowledge are good things. A meeting was called for and a vote was taken. It was unanimous; they would return home, to the cities where they belonged. Without further ado, they tore their constitution into a thousand pieces, although some say it was a thousand and one. 73 New Sights Under the Microscope Bottles line shelves in the Biology labs. Some contain crystals, others catalysts. There are grasshoppers sealed in formaldehyde and butterfiles pinned on velvet. Microscopes sit beneath plastic wrappings while glass slides are stacked in boxes. But biology can never be wrapped, boxed, or bottled. Science is in essence, not essays. It is mankind’s search for truth and knowledge. This thinking has filled our labs with eager, inquisitive students, beginning with BSCS | and Il.

Call out the National Guard? No, call on the National Honor Society! Members of the National Honor Society have been chosen for their records of service, their characters, and demonstrations of leadership in addition to scholastic records. Sister Suzanne Beaudoin and Sister Carolanne Theroux send letters of invitation to eligible sophomores who have completed one semester; each spring, a candlelight induction ceremony is held. Membership in the society is permanent, provided the individual maintains his record. For those studying Spanish, the National Spanish Honor Society is now being reinstated, with Mrs. Joan Drobnis as moderator. It has been decided that to be amember, a student must be in his second year of Spanish, and have completed one semester. The grade required is still being under consideration. Unlike the National Honor Society, though, membership is on a yearly basis; everyone must be inducted annually. Students will have an active part in planning activities of the society. The National Merit Scholarship Letter of Commendation has been awarded to seniors Linda Cronin, Margaret Healy, Katheryn LaPorte, and Paul Viens. These four did exceptionally well on their Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Tests. Lighting the way for National Honor Society candidates is Joanne Carvalho, recipient of a Daughters of the American Revolution scholarship.

DECODING FORMULAS, FORMS, FIGURES First place is no novelty for members of the Math Club. They’ve been there before. With one meet left, the ten member team has an excellent chance to compete in their second straight state playoff, representing the North Division of the Southeastern Massachusetts Mathematics League. At the meets, held at area schools, each team is divided into two groups, with each person solving problems at the level they signed for. The final problem is a group effort. Team moderators grade the results and there is no partial credit! The Future Business Leaders purpose is “‘to assist students in developing to their fullest potential by providing them with opportunities to practice leadership,” according to Sister Rosaire Goforth, moderator. They engage in activities which include sponsoring the Spell- In, films, demonstrations, and guest speakers on, ‘Opportunities for Women in Business.’ The group also plans to participate in various business skills competitions such as that sponsored by Johnson and Wales. New this year is the Hiking Club, begun by Sister Janice Brady. A knowledge of field biology and an appreciation of, ‘‘beauty and harmony in nature” underlies hiking trips through the Berkshires and Newport. Members hope to hike through the Newport Bird Sanctuary, bogs and glacial kettles of Cape Cod. Before the hikes, members try to stay physically fit, study the history of the area they are about to investigate and learn biological field techniques that will be used on the trip. Through competition with others and with self the math, business and science clubs make practical learning an after school activity.

But after two o’clock, the building comes alive, renamed ‘‘The Theatre.”’ This new alias provides a perfect setting for the Theatre Arts Club. This activity has received a complete face lift, including a name change by moderator, Mr. Alan Ksen. Members meet on Thursday afternoons, attending lectures and planning club outings. Some increased their knowledge by attending the New England Theater Conference and an Oral Interpretation Workshop. Choice seats were filled at plays in Boston, including Annie and A Chorus Line. Members also took a step backwards to the fifties, when they saw a 3D movie, complete with funny glasses and thrills. There is, however, a serious side to the club. Curtains adorning the stage were in tatters before September. With thread, needle and ladder, students tackled the job of repairing them. Much of the club’s success is due to the interest and support of Sister Mary Faith. In appreciation, the Theatre Arts Club presented her with a plaque whose inscription read, ‘‘All we needed was someone... to give us the Teamwork of Theodore and Lawrence LaPlante raises the main structure of a hexagonal ‘‘Oliver!”’ set.

Students involved play an important part in choosing the music, and more freedom has been given to these choices. Talented members provided meditation in solos. The group also participated ina Thanksgiving Ecumenical service at the Central Congregational Church at Attleboro Falls. Many citizens were impressed by the green robed singers’ voices. Call it the auditorium, or the Theatre. Whatever its purpose, things are really happening there.

GREATER THAN EVER, MAJORITY RULES How much contact does a student have with Student Council? Much more than he or she realizes. The organization is fifty strong, from President Thomas McDonagh to each homeroom representative, and from the day each of these members is inducted, they assume the goal of maintaining communication among students, and between students and faculty. There are events such as dances, the Big Event, Spirit Week, and Valentine’s Day candygrams, but Student Council also works less conspicuously, sending get well cards to hospitalized students and flowers to Sister Blanche upon her retirement. At meetings on Sunday evenings, committees assume these responsibilities. Benefits reaped by belonging to the council are many. Members have the opportunity to meet different people, work with them, plus experience a form of leadership. Since the Student Council itself is responsible for all this, isn’t it time for the students to get involved?

Looking back, it seems as if some days, more people left yearbook meetings than had arrived in the first place. And why not? The people who design, write, photograph, and manage Flashback are a diverse, involved group of individuals. We, who record the year, infiltrate the track team, Girls’ basketball, theatre arts, band, Student Council, and hold part time jobs. Yet, in August, six of us attended a five day workshop at Amherst College, sponsored by Ohio University. We returned with a workable theme, plus ideas for layout and copy. Still, not many of us were prepared for the battle which lay ahead. For example, take this While Marianne Doran, Karen Doyle, Paul Amirault and Christopher Lefebvre bring together pictures and captions, Katheryn LaPorte checks a last-minute piece of copy.

Two new publications hit our stands this year, giving interested readers poems and profiles, comics and comedies. They are, of course, the school newspaper and literary magazine. The newspaper, which came to be called the ‘‘Leprechaun,”’ had its modest beginnings last September in Mr. Hank Sennott’s journalism class. This approach, however, didn’t succeed, for students wrote not because they wanted to, but because they had to. Thus the newspaper club was formed. From the outset, a handful of interested and dedicated students worked hard to publish that first issue. Reader response and enthusiasm was Clearly evidenced by the HOT OFF THE PRESS number of papers sold. As time went on, sales increased as did club enrollment, insuring the ‘“‘Leprechaun’s”’ success. New York Times, watch out! Just what is a Shaman? This question has doubtless been asked _ by many interested students. A shaman is a sorcerer or medicine man. What? It is also the name of the Literary Magazine. Interest for the magazine was generated months in advance with a massive pre- publication publicity campaign. Countless ‘‘Shaman is Coming”’ and “Shaman Lives”’ posters could be found on corridor walls. This publication was the combined effort of the Literary Club members, with the assistance of Sister Agnes Therrien and Mr. Terrance Rankin. The club published volume one in mid-April. Meeting on Wednesday afternoons, the club spent many hours editing submitted literary materials and doing page layouts. Their accomplishment, in the form of “Shaman,” helped keep the flavor and spirit of 1980 students forever in print. In addition to the Leprechaun, Mr. Sennott moderates the Media Club’s operation of WBFH. Turntables rewired and ready to spin, members of the club volunteered to spend free periods upstairs as DJ’s for those enjoying a break in the cafeteria. Between the noise and the news... WBFH.

All eyes were focused on Maestro James Dillon, as he signaled the start of the band’s first Christmas concert, played in full before the entire student body. Tedious hours of practice for precision timing revealed themselves as the band, accompanied by a recording of mysterious sounds and echoes, created an underwater atmosphere in Cousteau’s “Underwater Sea World.” The auditorium filled with amazement and excitement; band members were greeted by a pleasing applause. The renovated image of the band is definitely noticeable in the posters and signs which clutter the corridors, echoing calls for support from the student body. The biggest thrill for band members is the anticipated arrival of their new uniforms which Monahan, Anne Riley. Back row: Mary McDonough, Mary Ellen O’Connell, Colleen Cunningham, Jennifer Cook, Michelle Gaudrea, Cheryl Rossi. may be considered a token of appreciation from the administration for hard work and great dedication. Law and order always prevail in the bandroom, while ‘‘Dillon’s Ten Commandments” guide the students to make learning experience fun. Accompanying the band at half- time performances and rallies is the colorguard master. Cathy O’Connell holds several long and hard practices before each performance, to help the girls develop quick, sharp maneuvers. Attending a workshop at Holy Cross College during the summer was beneficial for drum major, Raymond Boucher. Enduring the summer heat, Raymond learned many routines which he has spent hours teaching to the colorguard. Their hard work is of great importance to the band, for they enhance the music by their performance. Four gun salute, Lisa Leary, Paula Monahan, Mary Connors, Anne Riley, Cheryl Rossi, and Michelle DeRosa display their patriotism. 93 94 ““We’re right behind you!”’ Band members follow majorettes Linda Cronin and Denise Flaherty in the Homecoming Parade to Hayward Field.

For those of us who have trouble walking and chewing gum on the clearest of days, this display of spirit seems impossible. It does literally take hours of practice to achieve synchronization of both feet and batons, for the majorettes, led by Kerri Harrington, and the Drill Team, led by Dianne Morrissey. Rallies gave both teams a chance to demonstrate their ability. The Majorettes enter. They are few in number but high in spirit. As they begin, the music fumbles, then blasts out while their routine gathers speed. Immediately following the Majorettes is the Drill team, consisting of younger members. They maintain the enthusiasm that went before. Occasionally a baton falls, but it is set back in motion as the act continues. Gaining experience with each performance, the Drill Team and Majorettes continue to charge the field and the gym with their spirit.

A Nai Keates a. ae non all White armbands and banners display local sympathy for the hostages in Iran, in stark contrast to the white blindfolds hostages are forced to wear. REVIEWING THE YEAR FROM INSIDE, OUT National and foreign events hurtled and clashed around us as we made our way through 1980. Perhaps this year more than any other, we refused to remain in our protective atmosphere, but reached to actively support those principles which mattered to us as persons. The events, in turn, had a very real effect upon our lives. Our eyes were opened to disease and starvation, specifically in Cambodia, as local churches and even some Feehan families joined international relief agencies in organizing their own efforts. White armbands, banners, and posters appeared, while on many chalkboards was written the address of the American Embassy in Tehran. Christmas week, Iranians were stunned by the messages of hope hostages received from around the world. A direct result of the presence of Soviet troops in Afghanistan was President Carter’s call to renew registration of the draft, a difficult topic for some upperclassmen, women as well as men, in light of the Equal Rights Amendment. Meanwhile, Americans stunned the Russians on the ice; an underdog U.S. hockey team beat them 4-3 at the Lake Placid Winter Olympics, going on to win the Gold Medal. For Feehan students, especially those who were members of the Ski Club, this became, ‘‘the winter that almost wasn’t,” with a Ringing in the future, upperclassmen found that the value of their rings was not only sentimental but also of monetary value as gold prices soared. lack of snow from here to Maine, and record setting warm spells. Would-be concert-goers received disappointment at the cancellation of the, ““Who”’ concert at the Providence Civic Center, after a Cincinnati rampage left eleven fans dead in late December. Presidential hopefuls intensified their campaigns; as Carter tackled numerous foreign problems, Senator Kennedy tackled his loss at the lowa Caucuses. “The Leprechaun”’ polled students who would be able to vote, in a February survey. Skyrocketing gold and silver prices had a direct effect upon students who received class rings one summer early; many students thought twice before buying their rings, saving up what dollars they could and choosing less expensive settings. Finally, the very task of getting to and from a regional school became more costly every day, as gasoline rose from .83 to .97 to $1.30 a gallon and upward. Parents and teachers recall other periods of inflation, other Gold Medals, stunning political contests, other draft debates, other wars. But this is different, because this is 1980. We open the eighties with the necessity of finding new solutions to these problems, because, if history is bound to repeat itself, then clearly the old solutions haven’t worked. The triumphs of the eighties will be uniquely ours. Since snow did not come to Attleboro, Feehan natives, Mr. Peter Galligan, Mrs. Joyce Loew, and Mrs. Elise Servant went to the Maine mountains to find it. = aa It’s a dog’s life trying to provide gasoline for a station wagon, as this canine consumer well knows.

FLAUR I FACES THE CRO PLOPLE POPE OF PROMISE TOUCHES OUR Lives Pope John Paul Il’s visit to America was a very special event in our lifetime. The Pope of promise, as he is called, has proved to be very dynamic, influential, inspiring. Catholics and non-Catholics, people of all religions flocked to see the representative of Christ. Pope Paul VI visited the U.N. in N.Y., but never before had a Pope not only visited but also toured our country. John Paul Il came at a time when Americans needed to hear words of wisdom and when the road to God was unclear. His visit was not only historical, it also proved to be spiritual and inspirational. Pope John Paul II came to declare a message which challenged many Americans. Do God's will. Starting with his first stop in Boston, Pope John Paul conveyed a warmth and love to all those who stood for hours in the pouring rain waiting to see this extraordinary man. His homily in Boston was greeted with enthusiasm; people waved signs and shouted, ‘‘Vivala Pope!”’ His Holiness made a great impact on teenagers. His honesty and concern came through, and his smiles and gentleness melted any previous reservations. He seemed to genuinely understand the problems and conflicts of youth, and teenagers could really relate to the Pope and put their trust in him. He did not come across as Someone in another league, who couldn't 100 comprehend contemporary questions about faith. The charismatic quality of the Pope urged everyone to be more like him and ultimately more Christ- like. The person of Karol Wojtyla, who is down to earth, gained respect and admiration and has won many new followers of Christ. Throughout his tour of America, people believed in his words. . The majority of Feehan students followed his tour via television or radio; some even got the once-in-a- lifetime chance to see the Pontiff. Though all respect his word, there is a noticeable gap between some teenage ideas and the Pope’s more conservative ones. Abortion was considered murderous and unchristian, yet many students do not feel birth control is a serious sin. Disarmament was heartily approved and a formal habit for religious was a Surprising answer from many students. There was one contradictory statement, however; many teenagers opposed the pope and joined the ranks of the advocates of priesthood for women. At Madison Square Garden and at the United Nations, Pope John Paul stressed peace. “‘In the short time that he has been Pope,” Billy Graham stated flatly, ‘‘John Paul II has become the moral leader of the world.” This may be true, but does he have the influence to bring about the peace he pleads for? To a survey Flashback took with cooperation of the Religion Department, there were some encouraging replies and some answers simply spoke truth. One student said, ‘‘He might be powerful enough, since he really got through to the youth; we do have some Say in the matter of peace, even if it’s just in our daily lives. That’s where it begins.’ Another said, ‘‘No, because there are too Papal blessing lights up the drizzly me) darkness for thousands of rain soaked toa worshippers. The protective canopy could | not keep the windswept downpour from sy the Pope and the concelebrants of the Papal Mass. many people all over the world that will still find some reason to fight, but | wish he could bring us peace.” A large majority of students felt the commercialization of the Pope’s visit was wrong. It was the exploiting of a humble man, a simple yet very intelligent man, just to make a profit. A few felt it could promote the Catholic religion and regarded some souvenirs as valuable because they kept alive the memory of such an outstanding event. The 59 year old Pontiff, a poet, philosopher, athlete and musician has revitalized the Church. He is not a figure to fear, but a loving, energetic man of deep faith whom we should try to emulate. In little ways, Pope John Paul II truly has changed the way we live and regard life. If he only got us thinking and strengthened our determination to do what is right and follow Christ, he has accomplished much. Student Poll Did you have positive feelings about the Papal visit?

When she is not making decisions, enforcing rules, what is she really like? There are always meetings — from dawn to dusk, a never ending calendar of appointments takes up the majority of her time. It is a rare moment when we can find Sister Faith unoccupied. Involvementis a major aspect of her life. A dedicated Feehanite, who enjoys swimming, ice-skating, skiing, bikeriding, and the ocean, Sister Faith attends basketball games, football, volleyball and softball games. Her life after school hours does not differ much from her hectic schedule during the week. Although she is ina more relaxed atmosphere, there is always a strong sense of responsibility resting on her shoulders. Not much time is left for Sister to visit her family, but whenever possible, she tries to see them. When they are not around, we are her family. What satisfaction does it give her? Her record speaks for itself, fifteen years at Bishop Feehan High School must mean something to her. Advising, counseling, and teaching others give a sense of depth to her life. By definition, ‘principal’ means: chief in importance; first in rank, character, the chief person in authority; a leader; the head of certain institutions, especially a school. Sister Faith demonstrates all of these qualities and more. She takes a personal interest in the welfare of all her students. Sister has dedicated her life to God and the service of youth and we are all deeply grateful to her. DISCIPLINE Booming announcements rouse students from their seats. At nine forty, only one voice is strong enough to be heard above the din of homeroom period; it is Vice- Principal, Mr. Paul O’Boy, who’s had nine years of practice. From the intercom into the classroom, he teaches one class per semester, Legal Procedures. In his past fifteen years here, Mr. O’Boy has taught English, World History, American History, and other Social Studies courses. Still, to other students, Mr. O’Boy is more visible on the football field. He is Athletic Director, as well as Head Coach of the varsity football team. Coaching is an activity he truly loves, but, even the best things will have a fault. During the season, besides the time dedicated to his family and job, football takes almost every waking moment. To maintain a smoothly fuctioning school day, control and order are required. Mr. O’Boy has the dubious distinction of being responsible for this. Regarding the task, Mr. O’Boy feels that, ‘The discipline aspect is the most distasteful, but somebody has to do it.” Back in his office, Mr. O’Boy reflects that, ‘‘Being Vice-Principal offers challenges because of a unique student body.’ A special man is required to undertake these challenges. GUIDANCE Pouring rain and gusting winds greeted Pope John Paul II upon his arrival in Boston. Soaked to the skin, Sister Regina was one of the spectators who attended the Pontiff's Mass on Boston Common, but she feels that to participate in the celebration was well worth it. Sister Regina views the Papal visit as a strong communication of the love of God for youth. As guidance Director, Sister finds herself assisting the same youth daily with decisions for the future. In all, there are sixteen functions to Sister Regina’s occupation including admissions, transcripts, and working closely with the administration to develop the philosophy of guidance program. In addition, Sister teaches a religion course, Gospels. Yet there are rewards to her busy schedule; with a spiritual atmosphere, and students who are motivated, Sister Regina takes a special interest in each individual. Working overtime to coordinate college fairs and financial aid meetings with area counselors, Sister also attends seminars, such as the one held at a Naval Base in Florida, for which sixty men and women from all over the U.S. were chosen. Away from a hectic office, Sister involves herself with the Eucharistic Ministry program at Sturdy Memorial Hospital. She relaxes doing knitting or decoupage. But these moments are rare for Sister Regina, who puts students in first place. Student scheduling was the mammoth task of Sister Juliette Colignon as part of her guidance duties. Sister also shows juniors how to make the best use of Career guidance materials. Cochairperson of the school self-evaluation team, Sister Helen Burke is also a guidance counselor. Transcripts for college-bound seniors, guidance records for all keep Mrs. Elaine Condon’'s day filled with work. Excuses, excuses — their variety and ingenuity amaze Sister M. Evangela McAleer when she challenges tardy students. Sister also moderates the Folk Group singers. Financial secretary, Mrs. Patricia Deam, keeps tuition payment records in order. Tiny Mrs. Jacqueline McAlice, principal's secretary, sometimes feels close to drowning in the flow of paper work which streams across her desk. Tabulating daily attendance of over 920 students is time consuming work as Sister Vincent Ferrer well knows. Sunshine in the candy store comes not only from windows but especially from Sister Anne Aylward’s warm smile. Organization and a quiet atmosphere of learning are strictly maintained by librarian Sister Alice Fortin.

Cow GETTING US INTO THE ACT ‘| have Olen for Spanish.” “What's an Olen?”’ was a common question the first day of the 1978 school year. What is an Olen? Mr. Olen Kalkus is perhaps one of the more dedicated student-involved faculty members. In 1972 at Colby College in Maine, Mr. Kalkus, majoring in Government and Spanish was planning to pursue the study of international law, but in his senior year, he decided that perhaps education was really his vocation. After his graduation in ’76 he spent seven months in Madrid teaching English in a language school. Mr. Kalkus began his graduate work, majoring in Human Development at Salve Regina in 1977, at the same time working in the Spanish and Physical Education Departments. The summer of 1978 brought two new opportunities to Mr. Kalkus. One was his summer job of teaching tennis at the Newport Recreation Department; the other appeared in a want ad asking fora 104 Spanish and Psychology teacher and Tennis Coach at Bishop Feehan High School. He was interested in teaching at a private high school mainly because of the flexibility it offered, and among other things, the small and intimate atmosphere and disciplined students. He qualified for each position and felt the school might as well get all three in one person. Mr. Kalkus is now in his second year of teaching Spanish, Psychology, and Economics. His extracurricular activities include co- moderating Student Council, coaching Boys’ Tennis Team, and the newly formed Peer Counciling Group. Trying to aid and unify students seems to be his main objective. He has truly transfused himself into the life line of Feehan bringing with him the spirit of involvement, dedication and friendship. Mr. Olen Kalkus’ arrival has been a great addition to our spiritual wealth. Sunny, snowy days find Mr. Olen Kalkus on the slopes pursuing his favorite sport. MISS ENTHUSIASM Recently, many familiar faces have been popping up, those of alumni returning as teachers, one of whom is Miss Kathleen Sedlak. A 1973 graduate, she was actively involved in Drill Team, Majorettes, Yearbook, National Honor Society, Spirit Squad, Chorus, ‘‘The King and |,’ as well as taking trips to Spain and Mexico. After graduating, Miss Sedlak attended the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, later transferring to Marquette University for a program connected with the University of Madrid. In Spain, she took courses as an exchange student for one year. Miss Sedlak is planning to return to Spain in April, this time with Ten new subscriptions to the Flashback are reasons enough to make Miss Kathleen Sedlak smile. Sister Olive Coupe, R.S.M.

Outside of school, Miss Sedlak’s interests vary from travelling and outdoor sports to playing the piano and singing. Last summer, she worked with a CETA program for Spanish youth here in Massachusettes.

He and band member Joanne Fregault diligently teach Susan L’Homme the fundamentals of music. Susan, a very close friend of Joanne is a sophomore at the Bristol Plymouth Regional Technical High School. She has been interested in music for quite sometime, but has never found anyone with the patience and skill to teach her. Susan is deaf, and although she is aware of her handicap, she does not let it inhibit her. For Mr. Dillon, the hardest aspect of teaching Susan is communicating with her. He writes notes and with Joanne’s proficiency in sign language, the lessons continue. “Susan can hear the loud sound and can tell the difference between high and low,” remarked Mr. Dillon. He also recalled that Susan has a great desire, and produces good, solid sound. Progress is slow,’’ says Mr. Dillon, ‘‘not because she is deaf, but because of the lack of time and the various interruptions which occur Saturdays. If she sticks with it, in the near future she will be a good trombone player.” POLITICS For three years, Mr. Hank Sennott covered the Attleboro City Council as areporter for WARA radio station; this year he decided to run — and won. Mr. Sennott was concerned about the Council’s public image as well as the crime rate in Ward Five; he built his platform around these issues. “For years, the Council was only known for what it vetoed,” Mr. Sennott explained. ‘‘Of course, they did good things, too, but we only heard about the bad.”’ Mr. Sennott was also concerned about the image of Ward Five itself which was plagued by a high crime rate and the Richardson School controversy. To combat this, his campaign called for a Neighborhood Watch-type program. At the polls, Mr. Sennott competed with Lawrence St. Pierre, whom he described as a sincere and concerned man whose campaign priorities were repaving the streets and renovating drainage systems. The election results were 473 to 240 votes in Mr. Sennott’s favor. Mr. Sennott started his new position on January 8th and became the Chairman of Education. He expects that City Council will keep him very busy and involved with the community. When asked if he had his eye on council presidency, Mr. Sennott shook his head and replied, “Hold on, one thing at a time!”’ Sister Margaret Heaney, R.S.M.

Against a backdrop of green plants, Sister Virginia Quinlan samples the merchandise, adjusting her glasses to pore over the classics with more zeal than if they had been assigned to her. A prolific reader, Sister Virginia is never idle. She is accustomed to disciplines instilled in her as a Sister of Mercy for fifty-seven years. In her experiences of teaching mathematics and biology, fifteen years at Feehan, Sister has expected the same discipline of her students, who have now come to respect her for it. In 1974, the Sister Virginia Quinlan Award was established to honor the female Student Athlete of the Year. Recently she was inducted into Holy Family High School of New Bedford’s Hall of Fame, where she taught from 1939-1948 followed by fourteen years as principal. But to us, as students, Sister Virginia is the lady we see for snacks between classes, that book we needed for English, and the CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE ve ae! cassette player and language tapes we set aside. We see her daily, keys in hand, as we race to classes, and a faint smile is exchanged with a lady we dearly love. ACCREDITATION ‘“‘We’ve always tried to help the students become actually what they are potentially,’ responded Sister Faith in expressing how Bishop Feehan has lived up to its statement of philosophy for nineteen years. A key factor in determining this is accreditation by the New England Association of Independent Secondary Schools and Colleges. This year, the period of accreditation ends, and the faculty and administration are busy applying for its renewal. The process is long, beginning in January of 1979, ending in March of 1980. This is the time allotted for compiling a two hundred page report on all aspects of school life, and submitting it for evaluation by a team of nine from the Association.

Committees formed to include students, alumni, community, the decision making process, faculty, administration as well as each academic department in the report. The average committee has five members, in the case of academics, three are from that department, two from others. Each faculty member is on at least two committees. Because of obligations such as family, tutoring students, sports and clubs, it has been very difficult for faculty members to gather for these “inventory jobs” or ‘‘housecleaning’’ Meetings have been held at 7:00 am and everyone is feeling the pressure of answering question u pon question about daily happenings. Self-evaluation, though, is the most important part of this process, for from it ‘a stronger school emerges’’ Sister Faith explained that renewal is only denied on the basis of a serious flaw, in which case the school is put on probation; fewer and fewer schools receive the maximum ten year accreditation; which she sees as “‘a big plus” Sister is optimistic about the standards of the school. ‘‘We aimed for ten years, we’re going to get it.” 109 Wall to wall people who bottleneck the tunnel are Michelle Paquette, Mark Mederios, Jimmy Bibeault, Kelly Remos, Rosemary Duffy, Michelle Cartier, Kristen Roy and Donna Mignacca.

It should to any upperclassman who has ever tried to sell elevator tickets to a freshman on the first day of school. Why do they so torment these innocent freshmen? Why not? The freshmen, however, apparently survived. Soon they could tell at first glance that those passes to see the Bishop weren’t on the up and up, and neither, for that matter was the elevator. Monkey see, monkey do. Freshmen soon caught on to what 110 “spirit” really means. A taste of the high school experience was revealed to new students at the freshman seminar. Freshmen attended, attempted and achieved. They rooted, roared and rose toa unique place where their spirit rang throughout the school. The Frosh sneaker stomped out all myths of Freshman apathy, as well as its competition. And even with all their homework and study, the new Feehanites still managed to keep up with school activities and dances. As upperclassmen discovered, Freshmen were really going places, even without the elevator! Just as the bell rings, Claudia Cisternelli terminates her homework with a smile.

Suzanne Poirier has had that experience and lived to tell about it! She is the last of the fifteen Poirier children to attend the school. From 1963 to the present, students and faculty have seen the Poiriers changing and growing.

Sacrific es have been made at home, but Suzanne’s parents feel that they have been worth it. To them, their children are the biggest priority in their life, and they feel that a Catholic education is the best preparation for the future. According to Mr. Poirier, ‘‘My wife and | have found that you find the resources to secure those things that you feel are most important in your life.”’ In an age of uncertain values, it is reassuring to see a family which attains a way of life remaining stable and unaltered. Each Poirier student has given to us from this stability, our riches fifteen fold! WORLDWIDE WHIRLWIND How many of you have traveled? No, | mean further than R.I. or N.H.! Well, taking the advice of June Chong, travelling makes life exciting! June, oldest of a family of six, was born in New Jersey. When she was four months old, her family moved to Malaya where she lived until she was four years old. Unfortunately she doesn’t remember much about Malaya since she was so young. However she does remember viewing the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe during a two month stay in Paris. She also toured other parts of Europe and various parts of Asia. Although her family returned to N.J. after the four year stay in Malaya, they didn’t settle down for long, for soon they moved to Pawtucket, R.I., then to Cranston, R.1., then back to Pawtucket, and finally, to Rumford, R.I. where June commutes to Feehan everyday: when asked if she minded moving about, June replied, ‘‘No way, | love it!” “| don’t really remember much of it” was Anna Ison’s answer to the same question. This Feehanite, freshman class president, has traveled about the U.S. and Philippine Islands! Anna has lived in Michigan, Virginia, St. Louis, the Philippine Islands and finally, Massachusetts. Strange as it may seem to those of us who have longed to travel but never have, Annalikeslivingin Attleboro best of all!

Differences exist between the customs of Italy and the United States. But, because of her young age Roberta has had little trouble adapting to the American lifestyle. In Italy, the fashions are more elegant; one would not find many people wearing faded jeans and a T-shirt while touring Rome. The streets are very crowded and citizens of Italy do less driving and more walking. Small markets and vendors line narrow streets selling fruits, vegetables, and freshly-baked bread. There isa special feature in the eating habits of the Italians; though they eat larger meals, they do less snacking. Roberta enjoys basketball, music, piano, and travelling. She hopes someday in the future to receive her American citizenship. Roberta and her family vacationed in Italy during the Christmas Holidays and returned to share with us a little Italian holiday spirit. DEAR ABBEY Dream. A young woman is perched atop a sleek white horse; she is approaching a fence. Her back arches as she and horse fly almost soaring into a timeless space. Let’s stop the clock for a moment to find out a little about the rider. She is Diana Sheehan and the horse is Dear Abbey... Reared in an equestrian-minded family, Diana has been riding ever since she can remember. Riding has proven to be a source of responsibility and pride over the years. Recently, she has devoted most of her time to representing the Anawan Pony Club of Rehoboth. An indescribable sensation results from competing at regional horse trials, rider and horse acting as one. Both elements are essential to succeed. Yet Diana can remember once leaving at five A.M. fora horse show having forgotten her other half, Dear Abbey. Diana’s devotion and ability is evident in the many ribbons she has been awarded. ‘‘Ribbons are an honor to win,” she replies, ‘‘but what is even greater is knowing you have done your best.” Diana also possesses another special gift, her musical ability. During her study of voice, she was encouraged to audition for a production by the Norton Singers, a community musical theater group. Diana was cast in the chorus of Diana Sheehan, John Sheehy, Lisa Sherwood, Patrick Shields, Stephanie Shruhan, David Silva, Christopher Smith, Elizabeth Smith Joseph Smith, Michael Smith, Peter Spinale, Richard Stockman, Marianne Sybertz, Christopher Taylor, Rebecca Taylor, Jill Tedeschi Sherri Tedesco, Donald Theroux, Raymond Tondreau, Patrick Tormey, Melissa Towe, Peter Tremblay, John Tucker, Lynn Turinese Robert Vacca, Robert Vandal, Alan Viens, Amanda Watts, Allison Wegerdt, Teresa Wessman, Elise Weygand, Patricia Wolfgang Stephan Wujcik, Peter Zenie, Stephen Zurowski, Mary Volpe “Showboat”. In a family atmosphere, she received support and confidence to further her vocal and acting ability. Diana views her role as Mrs. Rogers in “Ten Little Indians” as a personal accomplishment; it was her first role in straight drama, her first in high school _.. The moment is over. The earth pulls the young woman and horse back to reality. 115 “Something to cheer about... .”’ Molly Mahoney, Mellissa Clarkin, and Sarah Shannon flash Shamrock smiles at a green and white victory.

No longer the “low men (and women) on the totem pole’, the class of ’82 looked forward to receiving Class rings, and possible induction into the National Honor Society. On the opening day of school, wearing colored blouses, blazers that were not buttoned, and the pride of knowing that they’re ‘almost upperclassmen’, the sophomore class prepared for book-selling transactions and schedule run-throughs which were, by now, routine. They were able to begin and carry through the year with a self-assured air. Certain were they of mutual effort which would produce a first place float at homecoming. Like their giant football player, diving through a goal post to success, the class of ’82 was destined to succeed at whatever they put their minds to. Surely their vocal spirit would lead to frequent victories in spirit contests during rallies. Certainly sophomores were up for a third floor level of accomplishment.

Two hours out from Quincy, the eighteen-foot vessel was on the last leg of the championship race. Behind the tiller sat Michael Healey. Driven by a powerful sea breeze, and guided by a firm hand, the craft sailed toa deserved first place victory. This was the last of a three race series, and it ended well for all of the Healeys. Michael and his family have been racing sailboats for two years. This past summer they placed fourth in the Mass Bay Hustler Class. The “Dawn Treader’”’ belongs to Michael and his sister Margaret and was built of fiberglass by him and his father. “‘The actual construction,”’ Mike explains, ‘‘was really simple. We used the mold which belongs to the MBHC and lined it with cloth. Then we poured in the molten glass. When it was dry, we removed the mold.”’ Michael hopes to go into architecture after high school and, he feels that building boats is a helpful experience for him. Now the Healey’s are preparing for the start of a new season. Be sure that as we lounge at the beach under the bright June sun, somewhere on the water the ‘‘Dawn Treader” is cutting the waves. SKY HIGH HOBBY Overhead is an airplane built and controlled by Greg Smith. Itis nota huge Boeing, but rather an example of Greg’s hobby, building model planes. After assembling a gift his dad bought him, Greg was hooked. He has now accumulated a roomful of planes, the result of two to three years at the craft. Each model takes two months or more to complete. “Building models that fly is a hard, aggravating job,” says Greg, ‘‘I try to use my time sparingly, but on weekends | could spend six to eight hours working on one plane.”’ After high school, Greg would like to join the Air Force and become a fighter pilot, but even before graduation, he would like to earna pilot’s license.

No, Jacqueline Ash isn'ta patient; she’s a volunteer laboratory assistant. For the past two years, Jacqueline has given up her spare time making up microscope slides and storing chemicals in the lab. In a few weeks, she will learn how to make blood smears on slides for testing and observational purposes. n Hospital Lab Jacqueline has been working at the hospital since 1977. Her mother, who also works there, introduced Jackie to nursing and lab care and got her the job. She enjoys her lab work a great deal because she likes working with people. She also feels that itis a wonderful training experience, as she plans to go into laboratory work or engineering after high school. Who knows? Maybe someday she'll make an exciting medical discovery!

Curtis Playhouse, a 50 year old former boathouse in Slater Park, the audience is packed. The play is sold out... about 115 people. Jennifer Wims enters from stage left. The Pawtucket Community Players are performing Fiddler on the Roof against odds presented by quacking inhabitants of the duck pond. It is the 204th production of their 58th season and a family tradition for Jennifer. When she joined the players in April, she had been cast in a show in which MR. SPIRIT ““F-E-E-H-A-N!!’”” An enthusiastic Homecoming crowd shouted in response to the silent antics of an anonymous cheerleader. The crowd dissolved into a flurry of laughter, screams and cheers for a figure clad in a Feehan sweatshirt and giant green sunglasses. This phantom Feehanite was none other than Richard Basile, voted Special Feehanite of the Month for November, Outside of rallies and games, Richard has been recognized for his super-spirited involvement in Student Council, Basketball, Football and National Honor Society. He enjoyed sports, and would someday like to play college basketball. Richard feels that, ‘Spirit is just about the most important thing ina school. When everyone gets together and backs one another, we get a great feeling, especially the ones who are not out there working hard. Feehan’s been known for its great spirit for a long time. | just hope we can carry on the tradition.” her sister, Lois, performed as the matchmaker, Yente, while here at Feehan. Since then, Jennifer has spent many tiresome yet worthwhile hours practicing, memorizing lines and rehearsing, at least three times a week during the play’s production.

Junior Karen Doyle from Lincoln, Rhode Island has been one exception. During her sophomore year, Karen was designated outstanding Sophomore for 1979 and also received the Hugh O’Brian Leadership Award. This award is a special presentation to sophomores in high school established by actor Hugh O’Brian for recognizing teenagers who have done active service in their communities and schools. In October of her sophomore year, Karen was enc ouraged by Mr. Kazarian, her class adviser, to try for the award. “‘l had to give specific details of acts of service and examples of leadership potential,’ said Karen of the three essay questions she answered to become eligible. In November, teachers selected her from among several other sophomores to attend a Leadership Seminar in February, held at the Boston Hilton. ‘‘l experienced the best days of my life as | participated in lectures and other activities,” said Karen of the weekend.

In addition, she works part time at Almacs Supermarket. Just recently, she was selected by her classmates to be their Junior representative in the Student Government Day in Boston. Karen runs to first place, with an incumbent's knowledge. HOBBY FOR FUTURE Soft-spoken shyness is often deceptive; and Michael Gousie is full of surprises; he has been fortunate enough to enjoy some unusual experiences. Mike was born in the United States, but moved in 1967 at the age of four to Frieburg, Switzerland. He attended first grade there, where his mother taught him to speak fluent German. In fact, Mike spoke German before attempting the English language. In Switzerland, he first learned to ski. Mike recalls his first serious “misadventure” at the age of seven, when he got his ski caught, tripped, and crashed! He landed with a broken leg. Just a year later, Mike made his way to the Olympics — as a spectator of the Winter Games in France. It was in Germany, that Mike started a very impressive hobby; he has an extensive collection of model trains. Each piece was imported from Germany, and the collection presently takes up one third of his cellar! Mike moved back to America in 1970, but has returned to Europe several times. When he was fourteen, he spent the summer months visiting Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Austria. Since his skiing debut in 1967 Mike has developed into an advanced skier. He is amember of the ski club and frequently practices his sport at Loon, Cannon, Mittersill, and Attitash Mountains. Three years of private tennis lessons prompted Mike to join the Tennis team; he also enjoys hiking in New Hampshire, and participating in Winter Track. He remains interested in science and is considering becoming an electrical engineer. It is Mike who draws the cartoons and logo for our newspaper, the Leprechaun. With Mike’s talent, combined with his sense of humor, he'll be successful no matter what his future plans. Viel glUck!! Can you find Karen Doyle? She’s between the two boys wearing blue down jackets; the group attended a Student Government Day in Boston. German sights intrigue Michael Gousie on his rounds of Europe.

Ray is involved in every facet of music appreciation — from instrumental to vocal to marching performance. His instrumental ability includes playing the flute, alto sax, piano and organ which he has exhibited in both Marching and Jazz Bands. Asa sophomore and junior, Ray has been a drum major and has proven his leadership ability as Colorguard Instructor. However, Ray does not limit his involvement in music to school extra- curricular activities. He is an active member of the Adult choir at St. Mark’s in Attleboro Falls, organist at Masses, and Head of the Music Ministry of the Children of Judah Prayer Group. The most outstanding example of Ray’s ability is his expert rhythm marching and rifle spinning; especially since it is the result of only one year’s experience in the rifle squad of SPECTRA corps, of St. Francis Xavier. Come summer, this marching unit, ranked 29th in the country, will be travelling throughout the U.S. and Canada for exhibition and competition; by August they will be appearing at a competition televised from Blooming, Alabama. It will be a successful trip for Ray, who gives one hundred percent of himself to whatever he undertakes. JUNIOR GYMNAST “| love gymnastics because it gives me a feeling of flying through the air.” Dianne Desantis has been taking lessons at McKeon’s in North Attleboro for five years; she has moved to competing on a team for the past two. Diane started gymnastics to fill up some free time with a few friends, and that it does; she practices at least twelve hours a week for competition. When asked if she would stay with gymnastics, Diane said she wouldn’t be able to compete once she turns eighteen, but she would like to become a United States Gymnastics Federation judge. “Gymnastics is really a lot of fun,”’ Diane feels, ‘ ‘provided | land on my feet!”’ ALL STAR Imagine combining athletic ability, good looks, and brains all in one person. Billy Hyland does that and more. He has been playing hockey and baseball for many years, but combined those with football freshman year. At nine years old he began playing for Foxboro Youth Hockey squads. At ten, Billy played baseball in a Foxboro Major League, and later the Babe Ruth League. Bill’s father helped give him a start with helpful advice which Billy has made good use of. This past year, Billy was chosen for the all conference team in football by the coaches of all the divisional schools. The Balfour Trophy was also presented to him for outstanding sportsmanship and athletic ability in the football game against Bishop Stang. Billy has always loved sports. The practices seem long and hard but he feels a sense of accomplishment being part of a team that struggles together. He has made many friends as a result of his involvement. Good relationships are started between members of teams. Sports are both fun and rewarding for him. Billy’s schedule is very hectic, but school always comes first. He studies hard and it shows. He won't settle for anything but his best.

Not quite. Title One is a state run program which helps young children from preschool through the third grade. Two senior girls, MaryEllen Haney and Susan Healy, acted as teacher’s aids in the program last summer. Susan in North Attleboro, helped to further develop the Mathematical and English skills of the students who usually ranged in age from four to nine. ‘‘To see the results of hard work in the kid,’’ Sue feels was very rewarding. Mary Ellen, who participated in the Walpole-based program, met with five different art classes every day. ‘| learned some new art techniques and made new friends, ”’ said Mary Ellen, whose summer experience was perfect training for her future career goal, Art Therapy. What was the best thing about the Program for her? ‘‘I got to work with children who are open and always full of something new!”’ for Special Children School’s end usually means the beginning of asteady job anda steady income. The steady income doesn't only concern a weekly paycheck, but also experiences which aid in the understanding of life. Maria Estramera had a very special job which concerned people. Maria had the opportunity to participate in a program for the mentally handicapped, hosted by the Attleboro School Department for two months during the summer. Maria’s schedule included aiding the children in exercises, games and swimming in the high school pool. Maria recalls having trouble with the latter. In the water, she stayed well away from the edge of the pool afraid that one child would dive too close to her, pulling her under. From working with these children on the level of friends, Maria learned many valuable lessons, which she feels have changed her life. ‘‘The mentally retarded are a very misunderstood group of people, they only need a great deal of love.’ Maria’s rewards can be summarized in the smile of one child. As the season came to an end, Maria didn’t wish to leave new friends; she had become attached to so many of them. She said goodbye at the beginning of her senior year. When June finally rolls around, Maria plans to apply for the job again, emphasizing that life is but a cycle. Wa Christine DeCiccio Walpole, Mass. Tennis 11, 12. Trudy S. DeFreitas Attleboro, Mass.

Thattawauy, Here’s the famous World War | flying ace; but, look out, Snoopy! Your flight pattern is soon to be disrupted by a young Pawtucket squadron member of the Civil Air patrol. Paul Viens has been actively involved in this group throughout his high school days. It is sponsored by the government, in connection with the United States Air Force. The young men and women meet regularly on Wednesday evenings, when they receive instruction not just on flying, but in emergency search and rescue procedures as well. On some Saturdays, Paul receives further training from instructors at Lincoln airport, who take him up in the aircraft. By graduation, Paul hopes to have his pilot’s license; it will have been a Red Baron long, expensive process. Other weekends, however, the group brings togerther what they have learned Wednesday evenings. Using radio signals, they track down the device in the woods. They hunt for a parachute and finally uncover it in the middle of a swamp. That’s only half the job done. Someone has got to retrieve it. A practical purpose exists for all this effort; recently, when a Massachusetts child was reported missing, Civil Air Patrol members participated in the ground and air search. After graduation, Paul hopes to receive a commission to the United State Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs, Colorado. That’s poe for Snoopy’s supper ish. Francis W. Gallishaw Seekonk, Mass.

KEEPING IT GREEN S.S.T. stands for Student Science Training Program, a super-sonic program which took place at Heidelberg College in Ohio. Weldon Lovely attended the three-week summer experience, which began June 18. Participants studied aquatic biology, stream flow and discharge, chemistry, and bioessays. _ Their schedule consisted of classes taught by college professors, Monday through Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Each course took three days, with plenty of homework. After the several weeks of classroom study, they went to the town of Zucyrus. Running through the town was ariver on which was a sewage treatment plant. There they set up a field lab and did tests and analysis for three days. This work culminated in a typewritten report which they submitted to the National Science Foundation. Together, participants tallied 250 hours of classroom, 250 hours of laboratory, and 250 hours of field research, 750 hours of an unforgettable experience.

Ask Sue Cunningham about her interest in the environment, and you're bound to get some spirited, lively answers. Take the simple question, “How long have you been interested in the subject?”’ Sue responded, “Actually, | think | was born with a natural tendency towards the environmental sciences. You see, as a child of two or three, | used to leave home for days at a time and live in the woods behind my house. | had built my own log cabin by the age of five. Of course, when my mother found out what! was up to, she puta stop to it. She said if | wanted to make anything of my life, | had better start living within social norms, and that meant living in a family and sleeping in a bed rather than on a floor.”’ By the time Sue reached high school, she had adjusted pretty well. Her freshman biology course led her to pursue science further. She began to read and learn about the effects of society’s pollution on the environment, and even attended a National Science Foundation summer program. After high school, Sue would like to work for the government-sponsored Young Adults Conservation Corps, given the opportunity. Why such driving interest? Sue responded, “‘I’ll tell you why. Have you ever walked down a city street, gazing in all of the store windows at the expensive tweed blazers that you wished you could have, but you only had forty- three cents in your pocket, and you wouldn’t get paid until God knows when, because you didn’t even have a job yet, and you wondered where the color green disappeared to? Then you saw a Pepto-Bismal ad on the T.V. in the window of the Panasonic store and you suddenly had the answer to your question. The Pepto-Bismal company bought every green thing on earth and fed it to that fat guy so he’d get sick and turn green on the T.V. screen. That’s what you thought anyway — at least | did — until one day, |sawa weed growing out of acrack in the side walk, underneath a rusty drainpipe on the old Shepard building. | got down on my knees, right there in the middle of downtown Providence on that hard, grimy side walk, and prayed to God that there was another weed nearby. Then, at least, they could get married and populate the earth with something green. It’s religious experiences like that which keep my She Gives a Hoot faith in ecology burning deep within my soul. Something like that, anyway... Sue’s “faith in ecology”’ may not lead her to become the “first white Apache Indian chief,” but she does hope to receive a degree in environmental science and enter a research field. Meanwhile... “| think the problem with our society is apathy. Everybody complains about pollution and dirt and grime but no one takes the time to pick up the beer cans lying in the gutter in front of their house. They leave them there for the garbage man or the neighbor’s kid or somebody to pick them up. Somebody will do it, right? It’s thoughts like that which have infected our society and kept our earth rust-colored for so many years. | can’t stand to see rivers, flowerbeds, yards, streets, playgrounds and parks filled with trash. It really gets me angry. Throw a paper on the ground when I’m around someday, and I'll ask you to pick it up. If you don’t, | will. | want to see a clean, healthy, vibrant earth before | reside beneath it . | never have. | want to leave that beautiful gift to my descendants.”’ 13? 140 Pamela M.

Crowned Halls of the Rhode Island State House are a living history lesson, as elected officials put forth legislation to benefit the people of the state. David Connery, a Rhode Island Senate Page, has had the opportunity to witness this firsthand over the past two years that he has held the position. David was appointed by the Lieutenant Governor at the beginning of last year’s session, after he had worked on the election campaign of Senator James Hagin. His job ranges from “‘passing out House and Senate bills, to getting a Senator a cup of coffee.’’ David knows the entire floorplan of the State House. He explained that, “‘If | was to bring some important documents to the wrong room, | could easily lose my job.”’ David appreciates the knowledge he has received of state government, the exact procedure, for example, of introducing a bill that is to become law. This is his last year on the job, since next fall he will be in college. David, however, is sure to keep an eye on legislative events of his home state, along with the “Independent Man” of the State House dome. 7 f by Independent Man Todd McGinn North Attleboro, Mass.

Tops in Pops Kerry Riess could have danced all night and still not have exhausted her talents! She takes ballet, pointe, tap and jazz classes at the ‘Hazel Boone Dance Studio” in Canton, Mass. Every Tuesday night Kerry practices from 6:15 until 9:30. When asked why she dances, Kerry replies, ‘Dancing is a means of expression. I’m constantly in touch with my body, forever trying to improve it. Dancing is a necessity for me.” Kerry’s mother started her dancing when she was six years old and now, she cannot imagine not practicing the art form. In fact, Kerry spent February vacation in New York taking classes at Joffrey, New York Conservatory, ABT, Carnegie Hall, New York International and Don Farnworth. Performance dancing is a very competitive field. Few people can make a career out of it. Dancing is extremely demanding, and leaves very little time for anything else. It requires discipline and hard work every day. Kerry is prepared for the challenge. Music, music, music; these are beautiful words to Jack Battersby and Lee Ann McKenna. Lee Ann plays the flute, and would like to make it her career. She feels that, ‘“,.. music is arelease, | can expel all my emotions into it without getting angry. When | am tense, | can calm myself down. It can be something really beautiful, if played correctly.’’ Classical music seems to be Lee Ann’s favorite now, but she feels that there is more opportunity to play popular music as a professional. She’s on her way, having won the John Philip Sousa Award for outstanding band members; Lee Ann was also featured in, ‘‘Who’s Who in Music.”’ Jack plays many types of guitar, such as bass, electric, fold, lead and ryhthm. In the band, ‘‘Ferimyth,”’ ‘jazz, rock, and sometimes fifties things like Beatles gigs,’’ come alive. Unlike Lee Ann, Jack is not planning to become a professional musician; his interests lie in electrical engineering; however, music will undoubtedly remain an Louise F.

Imagine furthering your education away from home before Graduation! For most of us, college is the first step. One ambitious student, Jessica Ho, has travelled to the other side of the world for her senior year. Jessica, citizen of Hong Kong, was dissatisfied with the universities there, so decided to check into schools abroad. Her family discussed the subject of having Jessica live with friends in Boston; she could then attend a University in the United States. Out of this discussion came the idea that she finish high school here, also. Through the Hong Kong Department of Education, Jessica discovered Bishop Feehan. After reviewing its accreditation, she agreed to attend. On September 15, Jessica family of five, including two students, who are natives of Hong Kong. Jessica commutes to and from Boston daily, via bus and train. She feels that all this trouble is worth it. Jessica misses her far away family very much and writes to them often. However, she does not plan to return home until she finishes her college education. Soon after her arrival, she realized Boston actually Hong Kong - Attleboro wasn't that different from home. Meanwhile, Jessica daily finds this to be true. Chery! A. Rossi Mansfield, Mass. Colorguard 10, 11, 12; Track 12. Diane P. Rousseau Attleboro, Mass.

The whole Rehill family enjoyed hosting senior float meetings, especially since this was the first year that Laurie was strong enough to take part. Even when Laurie returns to Children’s Hospital, it is not quite so difficult anymore, because she knows people from all areas of the place. As she walks down the hall, she is greeted by many familiar faces. Throughout her long illness, Laurie has kept her smile and love of people. She enjoys writing and has shared some of her story in creative writing class. Perhaps some of her deepest sharing took place in the Echo retreat which she made before Christmas. Strengthened and enriched by her many experiences, Laurie brings to all she enounters a generous love and deep peace. “Laurie (Rehill) and Laurie (Castro)”’ ‘welcome 1980 with great hope. Robin E.
