Over 1,000 people crammed into a building designed for 800. Sparkling new ideas were interchanged as knowledge and laughter were shared. Constantly growing in number, size and spirit, we plunged forward with burning intensity. Even to use the telephone, Raymond Cord discovers that there are lines everywhere. BURSTING AT THE SEAMS. In all, 225 serious seniors, 230 jazzy juniors, 248 sassy sophomores, 249 frantic freshmen, along with 75 faculty members and 12 members of the general staff, jammed into the auditorium and study halls. So many faces! A varied, talented collection provided an abundance of warmth and love. In the cafeteria, students looked like proverbial sardines. Hallways Christ and man unite as a student receives Holy Communion from a teacher-extraordinary minister of the Eucharist during a school Mass.

Where would we store boots, coats, mittens and scarves when we could barely find space for our textbooks in our two-by-four lockers? Despite crowded conditions, each of us found our own little space in which we learned and grew. Theme 3 BURSTING AT cmeovw enero eon THE SEAMS IN John Motyl, welcomes Daniel Justinski to a new life.

Students carried their enthusiasm to the outer limits . . . whether it was cheering on the football team to overcome North or eating lollipops and “‘clashing’’ clothing colors, crazier than usual on Spirit Days. A simple bell evoked mass confusion between class periods — look out, it’s a stampede of freshmen! Or is this Grand Central Station? Rallies were literally packed. Sometimes freshmen were forced to sit in the band or football sections due to lack of bleacher seats. Teachers rolled eyes when the words lunch duty were mentioned — with reason. Demand for a seat was high, with the reward going to the highest bidder. Many a time conversations were conducted over two lunch tables! The only aspect of the cafeteria that wasn’t as noisy or crowded was the lunch line, since prices from pizza to milk climbed higher. Dances were louder, more exciting and the attendance was record breaking — if we could only find a spot on the dance floor! Homecoming, the peak of spirit week, was successful due to the efforts of Student Council, band, and colorguard, not to mention the football team. Toga parties sponsored by the Junior Classical League, ski trips, math meets, trips to France, England and Spain, and the prom were all educational and kept students happy and busy. A wide variety of events fulfilled the ambitions and needs of a wide variety of people who made up the student body. Feehan’s parking lot Says it all. It is rare indeed for a late arrival to find an empty space, day or night. Raising their voices on high are folk group members: Front row: Robin Castagnola, Shirley Gorelczenko, Chery! Rossi, Jennifer Adams. Back row: Yvonne Gunning, Deborah O’ Donnell, Diana Sheehan, Francine Kennet. With a night reserved for fun and appetite, Michelle Derosa, Jean Nicholson, Christine Masce, Lisa Leary, Mary Roque, and Kathleen Shepard enjoy the annual Sports Award banquet.

Oliver! The musical adaptation of Dickens’ Oliver Twist grew, nourished by spirit and enthusiasm for over four months. Cast members, assisted by director, Mr. Alan Ksen, rehearsed daily. Musical and vocal directors, Mrs. Kay Sapita and Sister Evangela contributed their time and talents. A special, two story, 25 foot wide revolving stage was built for the production. The magnificent turntable, which could be wheeled around on casters, was anchored 5 The. Qi % ab | ‘ = LF | any ae ae ee seuino rue scenes NEW “TWIST” FOR OLIVER securely to the floor. The set was designed and conceived by Mr. Alan Ksen, assisted by Aime Hodgkins. Combined with singing, acting, and dancing, the multiple faced set showing the east end of London, Mr. Brownlowe’s mansion and Fagin’s hideaway came alive. As the dates of the performances drew near, spirits heightened and bonds grew. Black tee shirts, titled ‘“‘Oliver ’80”’ dotted classrooms. A huge poster was hung on the third floor landing. These resulted from the brainstorming of the Public Relations Staff, William Walsh and Lucille Sauve. An electric sign, “Oliver — You bet!’’ bumper stickers and posters, all gave the message that Oliver was coming soon. The Attleboro Sun Chronicle also ran a large photograph and article in their entertainment section. The cast gained valuable experience by entertaining the Mercy Sisters at the Cumberland Health Center. An abridged script was prepared. Clad in their black tee shirts, the Oliver family revealed their tale. It was evident that Oliver was a success. Aftermath: After the explosion, much debris had to be cleared. Piece by piece the set was dismantled, the closets filled and locked. It all seemed over when the curtain fell. Yet the family continued.

THIS ONE’S FOR DAD Special memories of animated conversations and attempts at ballroom dancing linger in the minds of all those who attended the Annual Father-Daughter Dance. Strengthening the bonds of father-daughter relationships, girls and their dads came together to share thoughts and time with each other. Two, even three girls with one escort? Someone must be kidding! At the Father-Daughter dance, it all depended on how many girls dad had at Feehan. Dear old Dad took each in turn, or sometimes, three at a time! On May 2 and 3, they all crowded into the cafeteria and onto the dance floor. Sounds of laughter and happiness echoed throughout the room. Dads and daughters tried to copy John Travolta’s dance routine, and daughters crushed toes while 12 Father-Daughter Dance Queen for a night, Denise Flaherty and her dad enjoy the royal dance. Hop, hop, hop! Bonnie Gilmore, Vicki Briden, Marie Poirier, Mary-Ellen perfecting the waltz. Eyes blinked and smiles widened as cameras clicked. The fathers looked so distinguished in their suits and the girls so pretty in stylish dresses and gowns and pretty floral bouquets. Dads formed new friendships, and renewed old as daughters chatted and gossiped and sampled refreshments! Excitement stirred when Sister Ricarda Wobby prepared to pull the name of the queen out of a hat. Each girl wondered, ‘‘Who will it Ritzinger, Christine DeCiccio, and Laura Maxwell find the bunny hop can be free strenuous as well as fun. be? Maybe me?”’ Why not? You never know! The lucky girl was Denise Flaherty on Friday night; Michelle Gaudreau was pleasantly surprised on Saturday night. Both were proud to lead the traditional march. Looking back, who could have thought ballroom dancing could be so much fun? But then these were very special nights shared with very important people — our dads! Daddy’s little girls... Krista and Mr. Veldman, Pamela and Mr. Gleason, and Mr. LaPorte reminisce as they dance Dianne and Mr. Babbitt, and Katheryn the night away. Reigning queen, Michele Gaudreau marches with her father amid the fanfare of her subjects on Friday night. With a touch of class, Lisa Gurstenburg and her father glide across the crowded floor. Father-Daughter Dance 13 Demonstrating his humorous qualities, David Nazarian takes over the role of “The Big Fig’ as only he can. Dancing to the crowd’s delight, Clinton Oxley and Lee Ann McKenna humorize with pantomime. CALLING ALL PIGS, FIGS, AND HAMS... Pssst! Quiet! Where are my dancing shoes? Who’s next? Are the lights off? These are all the sounds which echoed backstage. But when the lights came on promptly at 7:11, the 1980's Big Event began with a flourish. As the students entered the auditorium, they were ‘“‘gallantly”’ escorted by David Pinsonneault and James Wynne, dressed in suit coats, ties. . .and gym shorts. The show was filled with comical acts. A fun-filled, exciting atmosphere was enhanced by co- 14 Big Event hosts Clinton Oxley (Uncle Clinty) and Brian (Briggs) Lynch. Do you know what animals are? No, they are not students trying to get to Senior Lunch first. The ‘‘animals’’ were a ‘minute movie,’’ performed by several student council members impersonating animals. A swarm of bees (Buzzz), aherd of cows (Moo) and pigs (oink, oink) were presented with straight faces. . We were all ‘‘privileged’’ to hear Ned Legare vocalize ‘I’m Looking Over A Four Leaf Clover,’’ while Michael Healey played the drums on his head. Real tongue in cheek humor was presented tastefully in the taste bud act. Besides comedy, the Big Event “showed off” talented people: Paula Monihan, Christine Lambert, Keren Bendikson, and Jack Battersby shared a song. Throughout the show, Lee Ann McKenna exhi bited her special talents, pantomime, and playing the flute. Finally, the Big Event ended ona warm note as Lisa Jordan and her dad sang a special song titled “Christopher Robin Is Saying His Prayers,’’ containing a moving message about family. The Big Event was successful, fun, and a refreshing change from the school routine. Punk rock rolls out through the kinky talents of Timothy Hall. Can you believe it? It’s Vice-Principal Mr. O’Boy doing an impression of student James Sweeney. Who is that gorgeous blonde? It’s Sister Patricia Harrington dancing her heart out with host, Brian Lynch! What famous musicians are these? None other than Mark Diamond and John Masterson playing out their rock and roll fantasies!

ATHLETES HONORED; PANCAKES DEVOURED For a delicious breakfast anda worthwhile cause, during the past six years, our football players and coaches have run a program to finance a week at football camp held at Portsmouth Abbey School. This week was a time of indoctrination and building unity as well as skills which would make each season better than the last. Realizing that everybody loves to eat pancakes, the team donned their chef's . caps and started flipping hotcakes. Just a few dollars bought delicious pancakes and a Satisfying breakfast. The local Kiwanis Club donated the grills; our qualified cooks, led by alumnus, James Haggerty, cook at Madonna Manor, prepared the food. During breakfast, other members of the team held a carwash on a nearby lot. Customers left their cars to be washed and shined while they were inside enjoying breakfast. Outside, the scrub crew discovered that washing cars can be lots of sudsy fun. Sister Ricarda Wobby also ran a ‘‘flea market’ on the same day to increase the team’s profits. Once again, Feehan interacted with the community, provided a service, and raised funds for a worthy cause. Spring Things 19 | POMP AND CIREUMSTANCE Old friends... Goodbyes... Pomp and Circumstance... Memories... Endings and beginnings. Encouraged by teachers and classmates, the seniors marched into the auditorium as one body for the last time. Confronted by the “real world”’ now, the ‘“‘something extra’ that the graduates received at Feehan would become an indispensable tool in their reach for success. These young men and women expressed their thanks to the faculty, the administration and their parents for the knowledge of true potential now instilled in them. Compared to a spectrum of colors by valedictorian, Peter Blais, the talents, and vibrant personalities of the class members will begin to shine in college and in their careers. Also encouraged and lauded by Bishop Daniel A. Cronin who presided at the 1980 Commencement Exercises, the graduates listened as he appealed 20 Graduation Salutatorian Linda Cronin thanks parents and teachers for their support during the past four years.

The special feeling of closeness and strong bonds of friendship would not be forgotten. Each went forth forming new ties, sharing new experiences and always drawing on the values instilled in them at Feehan. There was a sadness at parting from friends but there was also anticipation and excitement as the future, full of possibilities, beckoned. Now ready to live, these young adults marched out well prepared and full of hope as they face the challenges of the world. Mortarboards aloft... Pomp and Circumstance... College... New beginnings...

We wasted no time in getting into the spirit of summer. The following day the entire school unofficially celebrated with a party at _ Horseneck Beach. When most of us - think of summer we picture parties, _ sunbathing, bike riding, rest and _ relaxation. However there are also those people at Feehan who are a little bit more energetic than that.

William Hyland participated in a debate in RESERVATIONS DEPARTS opportunity to meet with President Jimmy Carter. Amie Hodgkins and Christopher Lefebvre went to a National Latin Convention in Tennessee, where Amie and Chris were also recognized for their fine artistic and musical abilities. Travel also played an important role in several students’ vacations. Many spent their summer on the shores of Cape Cod and some people ventured across state lines. Deborah O’ Donnell and Robin Castagnola travelled to Wisconsin and visited Marquette University. Debbie Fales had “‘chilling’’ experiences in Alaska! Jennifer Cook-Horning visited Scotland and met ‘‘new’’ relations. Sean McCarren and Sean Healey felt right Miss The Boat! “ke Bebb RIV BRBOAT DAILY 4 HOUR CRUISES CALL 479-6¢ LIC DC lreland. Raymond Boucher toured cross country with his marching corps, meeting lots of new people throughout the United States. Then there were the helpers. So many students worked for others during the summer, some as orderlies, others shared their skills teaching younger children, working at neighborhood playgrounds and as lifeguards. Those with athletic talent joined summer league competition and went to summer camp. Students played basketball, field hockey, tennis, football, and hockey. Still others worked at memorizing lines as they participated in summer theater, ‘“‘By the Beautiful Sea.”’ More and more students worked away the summer hoping to fill piggy banks and save for college. Students cut lawns, waited on tables, were bank tellers, worked as nurses‘ aides and chambermaids, and others worked for McDonald's, Burger King, Bliss, Friendly’s, Almacs, Newport Creamery, Star Market, and at numerous other places. No matter what our job was or what we accomplished — all enjoyed the two month break and now look forward to more fun in the sun. Even an August day can be chilly — at the North Pole. Mrs. Eleanor Kenney can look across the Straits to the Siberian coast. After her stay in Tennessee for the National Classical League meeting, the temperature change was quite a shock.

Haunting music increases in volume until reaching a shrieking crescendo. Stage lights rise, revealing the parlor of Doctor Seward’s sanitorium. .. Dracula has risen once again. The play, whose revival on Broadway with Frank Langella has delighted New York theater goers, spread its wings over our stage on October thirtieth, and November first and second. Two hours and several gasps, shrieks, and belly laughs later, the audience were on their feet showing unrestrained apprecia- tion and support. It was clear that Dracula had been a good time for all. Well, maybe not for the tech crew (techies) , who must have felt at times that the king of vampires him- self had cursed the production. On opening night, both a flash pot and Count Dracula (Bruce Zahlava) offers a new solution to that age-old problem of ring-around-the- collar to Paul Amirault and Curt Bellavance. a flaming cross failed to ignite and had to be improvised by the actors. Next, a magic marker became trap- ped beneath the rotating platform and stopped its revolution during the transitional scene. At the curtain call, the batline over the audience snapped and landed on a few unsuspecting patrons. On Saturday night, the show was delayed for forty-five minutes due to the break- down of the sound system. All of this was enough to make even an eternal optimist wonder “‘why me?”’ However, cool heads and active minds prevailed until these prob- lems were ironed out. In spite of the technical diifculties, the magic seen on our stage those three autumn nights will be remem- bered for a long time. Even if you don't believe in the undead, we can assure you that the spirit of Dracula is alive and well and living in the the- ater. Dracula lives! Halloween Play 31 SPIRIT TAKES THE CAKE Cuckoo...Cuckoo...Cuckoo... As the clock struck one on the night of November 8, the Senior class was still working on their cake. The primary objective — first place in the float contest on the next day. Starting weeks before, spirit began to build, reaching a climax during Homecoming Week. Students dressed as Raggedy Ann, Miss Piggy, Cardinal Medeiros, boys as girls, etc. to celebrate Spook ’em Day. This week continued with Lick ‘em, Sock ’em, Boot ’em, and Clash “em Days, ending with Take ’em to the Circus Day which we closed with the most spirited rally of all time. Emphasizing the unity of our school with a standing ovation, the rally included very precisioned and impressive acts by the -cheerleaders, majorettes, color guard, and drill team. Now, the floats had to be brought to school for judging. Last to arrive was the senior float (the best is always saved for last) . Sounds from the parking lot could be heard everywhere; people hurrying, balloons floating in the sky, horns blowing, volcanoes erupting, eagles soaring, Cars driving, some taking the cake... as our Spirit did. Next, the anniversary ceremony. We celebrated the Twentieth Anniversary of the laying and blessing of the cornerstone. Reflecting on the past 32 Homecoming Parade “Marshals” Mark Dieterle, Richard Basile, Sister Patricia Harrington, and Sister Mary Faith lead the homecoming convoy to Hayward Field. Forward march! Donna Prest, Cathy O'Connell, and Deryl Philips lead a parade of the Feehan Colorguard. ——_— twenty years were Sister Faith, Mr. Loew, and Richard Basile. We have certainly come a long way! At last, the parade! The usual three minute walk to Hayward Field became an hour and a half ride. Clowns, bikes, balloons, cheering, yelling, beeping, passing out candy, and waving streamers were all part of this annual celebration with our enthusiasm and uniqueness showing through. Starting with the arrival of the psyched- up people in the parade, the football team played Coyle-Cassidy. The mood was set ... the people were there... The anticipation and enthusiasm were evident. .. The big moment came! Picked as winner was the senior float with attendants Marianne Doran, Catherine McDonagh, and Dianne Morrissey. The halftime climax was the crowning of Catherine McDonagh as homecoming queen by Sister Faith and last year’s queen, Cynthia Laba. A final score of 35- 7 made us wild with joy. Our spirit did not end after the game. Back at school, hundreds of people cluttered the parking lot as the senior football player was hoisted from the cake and placed over the cafeteria entrance. By the end of the day, our spirit, our friendships, and uniqueness could not be hindered because our spirit, our dedication and our achievement really did take the cake! Take it away.

BASKET Gathered together in a true spirit of Christian thanks, the Feehan community celebrated the traditional Eucharist of Thanksgiving. Among the highlights of the day were the many well-stocked Food Baskets prepared by each of the home rooms, sponsored by the National Honor Society. The performance of the folk group was once again a 34 Thanksgiving Company representative, Mr. Sullivan, prepares to present the Balfour Trophy to Senior fullback, Mark Gaboury, as most valuable player in the Feehan-Stang game. vivid illustration of the hard work and musical ability of the students involved, under the direction of Miss Saulnier. This musical presence added a special touch to everyone's day. The fact that a four day vacation was finally here gave us even more to be thankful for. The long weekend brought rest and recreation to all. For a thrilling conclusion to the assembly, the Balfour trophy, an award given to the most valuable player in the Bishop Feehan-Bishop Stang game each year was given to senior Mark Gaboury for his usual outstanding performance. Once again thanks were expressed in a truly Christian way, in the context of Mass. Asking for guidance for the problems of today is Karen Doyle, leading the Prayer of the Faithful. Pastor of Holy Ghost parish, Father Bento Fraga, concelebrant of the Mass, distributes Communion to Paul Grady. Filled to the brim with goodies, Thanksgiving baskets for the poor are gathered in front of the altar. With the theme of Thanksgiving, Father George Bellenoit expresses his opening prayer. Thanksgiving 35 Samaritan Parable Is Still Alive Many different types of people make up the Feehan community. There are those who add that special extra touch and meet the needs of others. These good Samaritans dedicate their time and energy for the good of others and that is precisely what makes them ‘‘special.”’ John Gill is one such person. John is involved in a Youth Hockey Program for children. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays are devoted to coaching young boys in order that they may develop their talents and skills. Many of our students are involved in the Christian-in-Action Program. These students donate their talents to help the underprivileged, the abused, the neglected, the handicapped, and the elderly. Margaret Coughlin, Michelle Bruneau and Anna DiTullio are three students who have made banners for the room at Sturdy Hospital where Mass is celebrated weekly. As an orderly at the hospital, Tripp Barnes shares time with the sick and performs a hundred and one tasks that keep the hospital running smoothly. Lastly, there are those unsung workers who contribute quietly to the school. These are our patrons who keep the school alive, the people who sponsor and run the weekly Bingo which keeps down our tuition bill and those who contribute funds for scholarships. If it were not for their generous and unselfish donations of both time and money, our community would not be as strong and prosperous as it is today. Selling raffle tickets to intense BINGO players, Mr. Alan Kazarian volunteers his services every Wednesday night. 36 Community Still going strong after nine years of service is Mr. Walter Downarowicz, the founding father of Feehan Bingo. Sister Olive Coupe assists him weekly in keeping the light board record. Nine years of voluntary service at Feehan Bingo is much appreciated, Mrs. Theresa Corriveau. Planning a future career in medicine, Phinehas Barnes enjoys golf in his spare time. Parents, students, alumni, and friends cheer the team to victory at the Homecoming game. “Merry Christmas!” Accounting Instructor, Rachel Palazzini and Psychology professor, Helen LaFrances, serve guests at the Fisher Junior College Christmas party, in Feehan’s library. Community 37 Audiences Held Godspell Bound “Prepare Ye...’’ A voice beckons: The spell is cast, whirlpools of music and color pirouette. John the Baptist appears to plant the seed. His stay is brief. Alone again, we are now posed with the question, ‘“‘But how can we sing the Lord’s song ina foreign land?”’ On December 11, 12, and 14, the gospel of Saint Matthew was told in the musical Godspell in the commedia d’elle arte style. The play featured a potpourri of skits, songs, and a dash of humor. Mr. Alan Ksen directed the production, assisted by Miss Elaine Saulnier and Mrs. Kaye Sapita. Students rehearsed daily insuring precision With an attempt to cheer up some martyrs, Ken Butler revives vaudeville in “All For the Best.”’ “Day by Day” Diana Sheehan pledges her loyalty to the Lord. 38 Godspell in acting, singing. and dancing. Moments after the curtain rose, a beautiful city was built before the eyes of the audience. The set was conceived and designed by senior cast member, Amie Hodgkins. The multi-level stage resembling a paved street provided many acting areas. Progress in the set was halted for two weeks by the simultaneous production of the Chaminade opera group. For the first time a Feehan production was entered in a dramatic competition, which will take place on March 31. We are all in the world of tragedy and strife. Christ lives each day — we must live each day in preparation for His coming. Our time to preach the good news has come... After the Crucifixion, Christ's followers Yvonne Gunning, Darren Henault, Ray Cord, Diana Sheehan, and Chris Smith solemnly gather at the foot of the Cross. Scotland’s representative, Deborah O'Donnell settles down with England's Jennifer Wims to hear more of God’s Word. At curtain rise, Deborah O’ Donnell leads the cast in the ‘‘Our Father.’’ Jesus Christ (David Paquette) , surrounded by his followers: Chris Smith, Jennifer Wims, David Santoro, Darcie Harris, Gaile Rastonis, and Deborah O’Donnell, relates God’s message through a parable.

The answers to these questions are one and the Same: some students are too busy working, sleeping, playing sports, writing, dancing, drawing, acting, singing, dating, and finally, partying. As for question three, students don t hear announcements _because they re doing their homework that they didn't havetimetodothenight before!

That's right, the job scene. - Many students joined the ranks of five to niners to achieve that insuperable goal — the pay check! With the pay check comes that green stuff that burns a hole ir, many a pocket at such establishments as McDonalds, the Ground Round, and various theaters, roller rinks, and concert halls across the Attleboros.

Giving Sister Patricia Harrington a hug of confidence before the Christmas Assembly, John Gill shows his support for this Student Council event. In a much appreciated performance of The Diary of Anne Frank, solo dramatist, Mary Louise Hickey, sets a different pace from our usual assembly format. NO PERIOD _ TODAY! ‘“‘When the bell rings, freshmen and sophomores report to the auditorium.’’ This announcement was common as the students frequently prepared to go to assemblies. The mere mention of a rally sends excitement through the entire school. Athletes are honored, spirit is strengthened, and the weeks are ended with enthusiasm. During the holiday season, each of the four classes acted out humorous skits, illustrating the true meaning of Christmas. The cast of Godspell also performed an excerpt from their successful musical, the Folk Group sang some old and some new Christmas songs, and the band played our favorite carols. The climax came when Santa Claus, alias Mr. Neil Loew, made sure that Sister Mary Faith and Mr. Paul O’Boy had been good before presenting them with gifts. In January, we were privileged to experience the extraordinary talent of Miss Mary Louise Hickey who gave a moving dramatic monologue on the “‘Diary of Anne Frank.’’ Just before school let out for February vacation, students chuckled at ‘‘Mark Twain on Tour’ as presented by Ken Richters, a talented young actor. Assemblies are definitely an informal learning experience, for we gain an understanding of ourselves after our imagination is Stirred and we are left with much food for thought.

Assemblies 43 Year Tied Up With Yellow Ribbons We are not separate from the events that shape our world but rather, are affected by them and can say that we are indeed concerned. For many months we prayed for the safe return of the fifty-two Americans held in Captivity in Iran and gave joyful thanks when they were released. Students wearing yellow ribbons and a Spirit Day including the wearing of yellow clothes celebrated this memorable day. On the same day, the peaceful transfer of power in our country again took place as Ronald Reagan became our fortieth president. This was certainly a day to remember! On a school level, we had a straw vote held on Election Day, November 4, which accurately predicted who would be the new 44 Year in Review leader of our country. Students came up with their own answer to these questions. Collecting 343 votes was Ronald Reagan, followed by John Anderson’s 267 votes. Incumbent Jimmy Carter garnered the remaining 255 votes. All four classes participated in this mock election and the results were individually tallied by Miss Anne Carroll’s World History class. They had previously held a mock Democratic- Republican- Independent Convention. Excellence in athletics was displayed in the summer Olympic Games held in Moscow while excellence in science sent an Unmanned satellite to the outer reaches of our solar system. Feehan can truly show an involvement in events that shape our world today. Apprentice photographer, Steve Fachada, captured the spirit of political turmoil in the bombed-out Iranian embassy on his recent tour of London. Nature’s destructive force was powerfully displayed when Mount St. Helen’s erupted, making hundreds homeless. Delegates to the Republican-Democrat- Convention, Joanne Roditakis and Monica Cisternelli discuss issues. “Ring around the planet!” Voyager | captures the ineffable beauty of this mysterious, ringed planet. January 20 became the happiest day in recent history when the hostages were finally freed from Iran and arrived in West Germany. Perhaps Ronald Reagan’s most famous picture is his acceptance of the Office of President when he swore to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”’ : When yellow ribbons became the national symbol of the end of the hostage ordeal, the Foshay building in Minneapolis was tied up in this joyous spirit. : YearinReview 45 | T Monkeying around is fine during a group RURS NG picture for the members of the softball team, Sharyn Bankert, Catherine McDonagh, Sister Patricia Raiham, Mrs. i | 1 | Nancy Mowry, Paula DeYoung, Christine Masce, Tricia Buzzeli, Anne McGlaughlin, Robin Kelley, Lisa Leary, Diane DeSantis, Jacqueline Ashe, Mary Kelley, Lisa | Capuano, Brenda Field, Caroline Majkut, Patrice Omerod, Roberta Florena, but i THI cE TICS regular practice Is strict and strenuous. � . “4 : a ‘ 4 S Athletics Athletics — never a one man effort, First, we teamed up, ventured forth, joined forces, and banded together.

Mark Schmidt pulled through again as he hit a hard single. Up came Joseph Burkett. The crowd was chanting, ‘Jose, Jose,”’ his teammates were yelling last minute commands, as were his opponents. The first pitch was a ball, as was the second, and the third; but on the fourth pitch, Joseph got a cut of it for a base hit. With Mark on third and Joseph on first, up came William Hyland. William was notorious for his clutch hitting performances. So, with that reputation following him, he was walked. Now, if the first two batters were under pressure, Can you imagine how under-classman Robert Hyland must have felt when he came up to MON D SPARKL bat? Two outs... bases loaded... tied score. Up walked Robert to the plate. He took a few warm up swings and then took his place. Without any hesitation, Robert swung, made contact, and watched the ball sail through the air for a base hit. This brought Mark Schmidt and Joseph Burkett home for a victory over Attleboro. Throughout the season, this was a typical performance for the baseball team. Whether they would advance to the states or not, was decided in the last game of the season. Though this game was not a victorious one, the boys were!

The whole season consisted of many individ- ual feats, such as: a hurdler who became an outstanding discus thrower, a six-foot-plus 180 pound junior became an ‘“‘awesome’’ sprinter, a group of sophomores and juniors led the pack in the dis- tance races, and there were many who overcame injuries and gave some outstanding performaiices. One of the most notable events of the season took place at the Annual Attleboro Invitational Track Meet.

As the wind blew, a certain ten- sion could be felt in the air. The boys’ track team was competing against the D.R. team at a home meet. The meet had been remarkably close. Even after the mile run, the score was tied. Usually a meet will come down to the relay, but not this one! The meet came down to the pole vault! Christopher Roberge was still vaulting after one hour and thirty-five minutes. The whole team, along with many bystanders, stood around the mats and watched in awe!

The boys’ tennis team accomplished many feats in its two month sea- son. The mickey mouse t-shirt fan club, or the ‘“‘preppy”’ hat com- pany would have followed this eccentric team to the ends of the world! Wearing corny T-shirts and weird hats became the trademark of these swinging guys whose tal- ent matched their wit. With an 18-0 record, each and every match was an outstanding one. Besides placing first in the league, the boys advanced to the State tournament, where they were just edged out by Somerset. Their success was largely due to the efforts of freshman, Thomas McNulty and junior, Robert McGrath. Ranked numbers one “Oh no, that has top spin’ laments Daniel Ross as he foresees a difficult shot. and two as singles players, McNulty won to an undefeated personal record. Doubles pair, Michael Gousie and Daniel Ross, also performed well, advancing to the state competition where they lasted until the second round. The coaching and per- sonalism given by Coach Olen Kalkus made this a profitable experience for all! Next season, with Coach Brian Shanley, the boys should again be winners. Coach Shan- ley, a 1979 graduate of Provi- dence College and student-ath- lete, is noted for his tennis abili- ties. He, along with tri-captains Robert McGrath, Michael Gousie, and Joseph Simonelli hope to top last season's record. After successfully reaching for a volley, Chip Joslin tries to regain his composure.

DIFFERENT FOLKS There is something to be said for the endurance as well as the ability of the girls’ tennis team. At one point in the season, these dedicated girls played four matches in four days and won all four! They’ve had a dramatic and overwhelming upset... yet, they also had dramatic and overwhelming victories! They lost to rival Attleboro by a redundant score. Yet... they overcame their deficit and made three upsetting wins with outstanding performances. Their overall win-loss records were outstanding. Many new faces were visible on the courts as well as numerous veterans. All demonstrating spectacular skills and form, steady contributions to the team were aided by Freshmen Giving it her all, Roseanne Grinsell prepares to outwit her opponent.

Juniors Roseanne Grinsell, Maura Healey and Colleen Sheehy ran their opponents rampant in each of their single matches. There was a headline in the Attleboro Sun Chronicle which read, ‘Shamrocks want more of Maura,’’ Maura Healy, that is. The 1981 tennis team wants “more of the efforts and talents which were contributed during this season.’’ This would make the team an awesome, unbeatable one!

GOLF FLOWERS “Rain, rain, go away, come again. ..’’ The beginning of the golf season was a dreary one. The first two weeks of the season con- sisted not of victories, not of losses, and not even of strenuous practices. The first two weeks con- sisted of listening to the intercom announcement each day to hear, ‘There will be no golf practice today after school!’’ Once the rains subsided and the team was Golf Team, front row: Michael Gamache, Edward Legare, Michael Healey, Edward Shannon.

Starting with such a handicap, obviously their record would not be good. They lost five straight matches. But then, like a burst of sunshine, they overcame their deficit and won the next four. It was a team which consisted of many talents, one of whom was Patrick Cunningham, who gained place in the State Schoolboy Qual- ifying Round. This further entitled Patrick to compete in the Massa- chusetts State Championship. Here he finished in the top twenty in the entire state. Three outstanding senior talents were Edward Legare, Michael Healey, and Edward Shannon. They gave the leadership and sup- port which motivated the team to an impressive record. Concentration is the name of the game for Phinehas Barnes. Planning their strategy, Pat Cunningham and Richard Quinn strive for a win. Accuracy and precision are vital factors for a sure victory as Shawn Healy demonstrates. Golf 61 SPIRIT SPIKED SEASON “Bump, Set, SPIKE!!!’ were the familiar commands of Coach Nancy Mowry at each game and practice session. The team, in only their sixth year as a school sport, has won league championship titles four times including last year. Due to the gradua- tion of seven seniors, this year’s squad consisted of only three veter- ans and five inexperienced Varsity Strikers. Entering into a new, more competi- tive league, Coach Mowry anticipated that the lack of experience could pose difficulties. She gave much needed motivation and direction as the team responded to heavy pressure. Com- petition was very balanced at each match. Most games were either won or lost by asmall margin. Tri-Captains Sarah Reynolds, Catherine McDonagh, and Maryann Marcoux led the team’s efforts with strong sup- port from the court.

Westport had remained the only unbeaten team in the league. The girls arrived confi- dently, knowing that this would be the last chance that they had to reach this final goal. As the game began, Feehan took a commanding lead only to have it dis- appear slowly to a loss. The second game would be different. They were relaxed; Westport was nervous. Strength prevailed as they won the second game. The ultimate goal had been reached at that point. In the final game of the match, the Shamrocks ran into trouble early and were not able to hold on to the opponents’ rap- idly growing score. As the team walked to the bus, sorrowfully, yet proud, they heard the familiar echoes of ‘‘Another One Bites the Dust’ as it rang throughout the corridors of Westport High School. ““Yes! the ball is on this side of the net!”’ Paula DeYoung prepares for a block at the net in case of a spike attack. “What a serve!” Sarah Reynolds puts all physical power to use as the volleyball Receiving the serve, Maryann flies over the net.

The squad came together two, sometimes three nights a week in order to be ready for the opening rally and the first football game. All through the football season, the team was supported by the girls. They ran four rallies to make the student body more involved in the spirit of Feehan. Before they knew it, football was over. With no break in between, the cheerleaders began supporting our championship basketball team, never missing a game and being there from beginning to end, throughout the tournament. Competition began for the girls immediately after the basketball season ended. This year they won second place in the Agawam and Chicopee competitions, while coming in first in the Chicopee, David Prouty, CYO, and New England competitions last year. Throughout the year, the cheerleaders kept the school spirit alive by selling flowers for special occasions, making signs, supporting everyone, and being an outward sign of the inward spirit of Feehan.

FIGHT RETURNS ‘Spectacular’ accurately sums up the 1980 football season. Starting the season with a single point victory over crosstown rivals North Attleboro was an auspicious beginning.

The fans that came to Hayward TO THE SHAMROCKS Field witnessed the most potent offense in the history of the school. The team scored a record breaking 222 points during the season. Offense was led by the tandem quarterback efforts of Mike DiPietro and Robert Hyland. With a receiving crew consisting of William Hyland, Sean Rockett, and Christopher Roberge, both quarterbacks were confident that their passes would be caught. The team’s ground attack was led by area scoring leader Mark Gaboury and Peter McKay. After several unsuccessful seasons, the Shamrock’s have returned!

The members practiced in grueling hot weather as they ran to the town park only to do intervals on the ski slopes! Although their competition was quite steep, they managed to obtain fourth place in the division. Yet, they gave the Somerset team a run for their money ina close race for third place. Somerset defeated Feehan by a mere four points in their first match. At the second match up, we had revenge and defeated them by an overwhelming score of 38-21! This put us and Somerset in a deadlock for third place. The outcome was decided at the Conference Meet that was run at Somerset. Driving rain and wind that day closely resembled a devastating hurricane! Frank Mitchell certainly overcame the storm and captured second place in the whole league. The other runners weren't as fortunate, so Feehan had to settle for a fourth place finish. There were, however, very fine accomplishments this season. Junior, Mary Roque smashed the Feehan course record in a time of 14:02 minutes. Another Junior, Frank Mitchell, set the fastest record ever run by a Feehan male on our course with a time of 11:11 minutes! The fine coaching of Keith Gobling and the direction of tri- captains Kevin Southwood, Tracey Cavanaugh, and Mark Whitefield, inspired the Shamrocks with determination.

Hockey 73 74 Boys’ Basketball DYNASTY OF CHAMPS SUPREME COURT RULE December 17, 1980 was the beginning of a season that will long be remembered. This was the game that began THE season — THE first undefeated regular season (20 wins, 0 losses) in Feehan’s history. While compiling this awesome record, the Shamrocks won the North Attleboro Holiday Tournament (another FEEHAN FIRST) , swept the season’s series with rivals Attleboro and North Attleboro, and captured the South East Massachusetts Conference Division Il championship for the third consecutive year! It was also a season which witnessed Mark Schmidt, possibly the best Feehan basketball player ever, break the 1,000 point barrier and set the school scoring record. The season-long success of the team was largely due to their unselfishness and fast break abilities — a three prong offensive attack by Mark Schmidt, Gerald Lavallee, and Richard Basile. With crisp passing and deadly shooting, they had the explosive capability quickly to put points on the scoreboard. This was only part of the team though, as the unsung duo of John Killion and Timothy Guillette contributed greatly with their constant hustle, strong board work, and key baskets. After making the state tournament last year, much was expected of the returning nine lettermen. They met all challenges with hustle, intensity, and teamwork. The Shamrocks, over the last three seasons, have a combined record of 49-9 and three divisional titles along with an undefeated J.V. team. Isn’t this what dynasties are made of? On the rise, John Killion lays in the ball as the end result of a well-run fast break. Airborne, leading man, Richard Basile, lays in another two points in the Seekonk game.

Both Religion and English classes are concerned with values. These courses present us with the challenge — each one of us must struggle and search to find the meaning of life. The Humanities, Revelation, Prayer Journey, and Gospels aid us in the search for a clearer image of God and the role He plays in our lives.

SPEAKING ROMANTICALLY, CLASSICALLY In this continually growing and changing world, the knowledge of a second language has become almost mandatory. French and Spanish, the only Romance Languages taught here, are both very important in our world, Our country, and even our very own communities. Because French is an international language, the knowledge of it can be extremely beneficial, especially if one plans to enter the business world on an international level. With the present immigration situation in our country, fluency in Spanish could also benefit a person, whether in personal acquaintances or in business relations. Because foreign languages are becoming even more important in our society now than ever before, their popularity can be seen in different clubs at school; the Junior Classical League, a Latin club, and the National Spanish Honor Society, an honor society for Spanish students. This all goes to show that the more things change, the more they remain the same, n’est-ce pas?

DRAFTING, DESIGNING, CREATING To create — (kre-at’) v.t. — to produce (a work of art) by one’s own thought and imagination. The Art and Band students know well the meaning of this word, for they are constantly practicing in order to make perfect their craft. In Art classes Sister Veronica instructs students in basic skills and techniques in drawing in three dimensions and shading. Students are impressed in a world of color, shadow, and ink. The industrious and gifted people design Christmas cards, fashion ceramics, and paint water colors, all with esthetic results. Upon entering the bandroom, one encounters beautiful noise! The sound of trumpets, clarinets, and flutes warming up is music to the ear. Under the direction of Mr. Steven Shore the band has progressed steadily; the actual size of the band has increased; they have mastered new songs and are now marching to anew and exciting drum! Combining grace, form, and structure are the ceramic models for the students’ use in art classes. Humanities 87 BURSTING WITH NUMBERS Three hundred and seventy years after Galileo first observed the rings that surround the sixth planet, a television camera, traveled through the vastness of space, revealing the mysterious riddles of Saturn. Although this “‘voyage’”’ of discovery occurred millions of miles away, daily in our own physics laboratory, other exciting discoveries occur. While Voyager | provided the Demonstrating the phases of the moon, Lynn Fuller gives an oral presentation in physics class. 88 Sciences key which unlocked the hidden secrets of Saturn, the novice physicists were awe-struck with the discovery of the Aristotelian theory, Galileo’s Principle of Inertia and Newton’s Three Laws. Problem solving became a part of everyone’s daily life. At first the problems seemed ridiculously simple but soon frustration and challenge set in. How does one find the centripetal acceleration of a space capsule orbiting the earth “It’s a small world after all” thinks Eric Delisle while looking at a model of the universe. weighing two hundred pounds with a distance of 2 x 10° “miles above the earth??! Trigonomic functions, algebraic variables, and geometric forms are unified for the students in physics class and everyday problems.

Mixing men, microscopes, and medicine Purpose: To inform the students of the many branches of science offered here. Materials: Experienced teachers, well-equipped labs, and students willing to learn. Procedure: Asin book. Observations: Certain classes correspond with different levels: A) Biology — freshmen and sophomores participate in these studies of man; his environment and the organisms which surround him. B) Chemistry — comprised of both sophomores and juniors, this course concentrates on atoms, their compounds, and their reactions. C) Physiology — seniors make up this class, which deals with the physical structure and internal reactions of the human body. Conclusion: A wide range of scientific knowledge can be attained at all the various levels of our school. Exact water volume is measured by junior, Edward Mongeau. Chemistry student, Richard Basile, uses a pipette to insure the exact amount of solution. Sciences 91 Working on a new project, David Santoro tests his skill with a router.

These are the ingredients necessary for beautiful shawls, dresses and quilts, and many other articles of clothing. Mrs. Schensnol’s home economics classes take these raw materials and combine skill and creativity to fashion practical, attractive clothes. Mrs. Schensnol’s classes also produce the heavenly aroma of freshly baked cookies, cakes, pies and many other tantalizing desserts. Watch out, Chef Tell! The buzzing of chain saws, and the pounding of hammers are common sounds originating from Mr. Galligan’s wood shop. Students learn to work with wood and have created such practical 92 Practical Sciences Objects as end tables, book shelves, TV stands and frames. The sounds of dictation and the clicking of an experienced typist can be heard over the hammers and chain saws in the far end of the corridor. These sounds come from the business classes held inrooms 101 and 103. These offer still another opportunity of preparation for the future. Business courses teach typing, shorthand, filing, and other essential skills for the student seeking a successful business career. All of these practical sciences share a common factor: they prepare the student for the world we shall face as adults. Today we practice for tomorrow.

We are always meeting new people and making friends outside the classroom, participating in projects that are enjoyable and enable us to share our special creative talents. Putting effort and extra hours into developing our giftedness insures SUCCESS. There is interest and enthusiasm when we work with others, side by side, doing what we do best. Each must do his or her own thing: sports, singing, acting, writing. We show appreciation and respect for the talents of people like ourselves. Support behind our athletic teams, newspaper, folk group, cheerleaders, Student Council, spurs these clubs on to greater achievement. We derive great satisfaction in going out, letting loose, displaying Spirit and being creative. Practice makes perfect; whether it be basketball or choir practice! Special moments are when the hard work pays off — a feeling of pride and accomplishment after a winning season or successful play. Through these extracurricula, we learn, grow, have fun and broaden Our horizons. When we put so much of ourselves into the “‘extras,’’ the finished product is bound to turn out great!

One of the highlights of this year’s club was a toga party which included wearing the traditional togas, eating Roman foods, and even playing Latin Scrabble. Over the summer, Christopher Lefebvre and Amie Hodgkins attended the National Junior Classical League convention in Knoxville, Tennessee. This ten-day event included attending classical seminars, feasting at Roman banquets, and wearing the traditional toga. The classics are definitely not dead here, but alive and well and stronger than ever. No, it’s not Julius Caesar and Cleopatra, rather, it’s Christopher Lefebvre and Amie Hodgkins modeling the latest from ancient Rome during the NUCL Convention. JCL 99 Calculated Advances In Our World At two o'clock came the announcement, instructing the Math team to report to Sister Alice’s homeroom. When the ten competitors gathered, they converged on the school parking lot, where Sister Alice’s eagerness for the meet was displayed in her aggressive driving habits. The team arrived early at the competing school and waited in the cafeteria, partaking liberally of the free refreshments. The meets were very structured; members from the five competing teams reported for their tests and raced against the clock, solving complicated mathematical problems. Afterwards the students waited expectantly for the results in the cafeteria. Captain Paula De Young and Tracy Giordano, along with seniors Sue Chabot and Lynda Lewis have shown experience and consistency in their meets during their last year. In two meets out of three, Michael Cronin achieved a perfect score. Because of excellence he has been chosen to represent the school in the competition for a place on the all star team. Underclassmen also have contributed to the team effort, making the club stronger and more effective. After the first three meets, the team held a slim lead over Attleboro and were in first place. The future looks promising, with visions of competing in the state playoffs for the third consecutive year, with many high scorers returning next year. Statistically, the odds are looking good. Poise, personality, and efficiency are all requirements for the modern business woman, and all are goals for the Future Business Leaders. To cultivate awareness of others, the clubs members made attractive greeting cards for all faculty members at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, and Easter. Each card was artistically crafted and personally addressed. The club’s main objective is to assist students in developing to their fullest potential by providing them with the opportunities to practice leadership. Members achieve this by viewing films on career opportunities and learning to participate in group discussions and engaging in practical problem solving. The club also holds various demonstrations and sponsors the annual Spell-in. Involvement in various Business skills competitions, such as the Johnson and Wales competition, demands excellence. Another item on the Future Business Leaders’ agenda was the hosting of guest speaker, Mrs. Jane Renner, from Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School. This dynamic speaker emphasized the need for well trained women to insure that the future business leaders may truly build a better world.

Because of faulty connections, these lucky travelers had a bonus day in Portugal to do some unexpected sightseeing.

Deadline late nights started with five workers, then there were four, and at 1:30 a.m., the last three wrapped up last minute business and wearily headed home. Working together closely and striving to be creative, the staff burned the midnight oil and put brain power to the test. The layout, articles, captions, and photographs were carefully coordinated to promote Flashback’s theme. Was all that hard work and sacrifice really worth it? When the book comes out, the answer will be a resounding yes! Layout Editor, Joseph Simonelli, makes rough drafts of layouts. After her lecture, ‘“‘Get Your Copy Right,’’ for the CSPA fall yearbook workshop, Sister Mary Enda takes a walk around the Columbia University quad. Flashback 107 Literally, Magic Publications ‘Anyone want a Leprechaun?” ‘Get your Shaman here!” These voices could frequently be heard drifting into noisy homerooms, Causing first-time listeners to wonder just what these legendary and supernatural creatures have to do with our school, and why anyone would want to buy one. The answer is simple: Leprechauns and Shamans entertain us. Obviously, they are the school’s newspaper and literary magazine. The Leprechaun, moderated by Ms. Marie Chabot, became a SUCCeSS again this year. Its new, more professional-looking format was very well received; this was evident by the continual selling-out of all copies ordered. On a similar note, the Literary Club, under Sister Agnes Therrien’s supervision, produced the second volume of Shaman this spring. Months of hard work, reading copy, drawing artwork, designing pages, and planning a massive publicity campaign really paid off. Once again, Shaman sold out in a very short period of time. Another plus in favor of the literary magazine came through Columbia University Press. Last year’s publication received a second-class award in Columbia’s annual contest. The critique of the book arrived some time in November and through it the club learned how to improve their work. One thing’s for sure, though: Shaman II was definitely a hit. New voices drift through the homeroom: ‘‘Wait! Where can | get a Leprechaun?” “‘Are there any more Shamans left?”’ They are answered by others: “Sorry! We're all out!”” Those poor people learned their lesson — big sellers wait for no man! 108 Media Clubs Symbol of our school newspaper, the Leprechaun takes a serious look at school life. Three cheers for the Shamrocks! Sister Jessica makes it clear what her favorite team is in the course of a busy day in the bookstore.

S.T.U.D. stands for ‘Skiers’ Totally Unconditional Desire.”’ This, in fact, is a fancy name for what every skier hopes for, a good snowfall. Last year, the bare ground and rocky patches were a hindrance to the skiers. This year, howeve r, that valuable white fallout was in ample supply. Still, accidents will happen. For instance, a moment to adjust his goggles proved to be a moment too much for Joe Simonelli, for he woke up ina ditch. Only his pride was fractured. Joe was not alone in being stricken. A skier was gliding along at a leisurely pace, unaware of the 110 Ski Club disaster about to befall her. One of our skiers, Steve Fachada, out of control, was her unwitting assailant. Upon impact, his standing as a hack skier was damaged, as was the symmetry of her head. On the whole, members enjoyed themselves with minimal injury. In their off-hours, the skiers’ Spirits flowed freely. Their many activities insured a habitual, though tiring good time. As on the way home from all trios, almost every skier dropped off into an exhaustion-induced sleep, perhaps seeing themselves in their dreams as Jean Claude himself coming down the slopes.

Well, for starters, these individuals must take majorette lessons, and attend choreography rehearsals and weekly practices on Saturday mornings during the football season. Sound difficult? It usually is: however, when you add up all these ingredients, the sum is the essential element that makes this and any group special — dedication... going beyond the call of duty. Indeed, many team members gave up their own free «time to take private lessons to Whirling steel cuts through the air to the beat of Lynn Alix, Denise Flaherty, Jill Tedeschi, and Michael Laliberte march in timed precision.

Last January, twirling lessons were offered to interested (and future) members. Faulty tape-recorders and record players couldn’t even lessen this group’s energy. This was clear when the drill team performed their routines in a silent gymnasium at the winter rally. Actually it wasn’t quite silent. The hall was filled with the sounds of applause and support of an appreciative student body. ; Both the drill team and majorettes represent what our school is all about — giving that extra push.

Being the best is not easy, for it requires coordination, cooperation, and skill, but the marching band handles the task. So let’s hear it folks. . . strike up the band! There’s no doubt about it!

Yet we all have one thing in common — We have come to the same place — Feehan — to further our dreams and goals. Each one of us is special, with something important to share and we are not afraid to open up and share it! We are people who care and people who dare and so we have formed lasting friendships — We laugh, we cry, we strive to succeed, but best of all, we love one another, -and people who love people, are the happiest people 1 the world. “Dollar Bill,” a second generation Servant shares his father Christopher’s spirit, preview of his future Feehan life.

People 119 Since becoming principal in 1973, Sister Mary Faith has watched our school experience tremendous growth. The expansion of the athletic program, the constant updating of the curriculum, the growing enrollment, and the addition of the Religious Education building to the physical plant have all shown that our school is always Striving to meet the current needs of individuals. Crowning all of these achievements was our reaccreditation for another 10 years.

It is a joy for Sister to watch students’ success in extra-curricular activities and careers after graduation and even to see students here who are children of Feehan graduates. ; During the summer, the ocean provides an ‘‘escape’”’ for Sister, who even then is preparing for the next school year. Involvement in every aspect of the school means a twenty- hour job, but a job that is both rewarding and gratifying. HY aking sure that the school remains consistent with its goal, objectives, and what it is trying to accomplish is what Mr. Paul O’ Boy does. Over the past ten years as Vice- Principal, he has maintained enough At the helm is Captain Sister Mary Faith _ decorum to allow education to go on. Dealing with problems as they arise, he sees himself as an ombudsman, seeing that the school is run properly. He enjoys seeing students , participate and succeed in athletics — and all other extracurricular activities, although these do not take precedence over academics He believes that extracurricula giv students a release or a chance t show their talents in what they like to do. Students can gain a feeling of pride and make education easier. This promotes a good feeling here among students, faculty, and administration. As a result, Feehan is something very special, which is reflected in how people perceive us and how we are directed toward teaching students the Christian way of life. Mr. O’Boy enjoys being football coach and athletic director. He is also a family man, and most importantly, he enjoys his job. Working in her cheery office for the past ten years, Sister Regina Coughlin heads the Guidance Department, an integral part of the school. With her personal touch and contact with students, she tries to provide accurate schedules commensurate with students’ ability. It is her ultimate goal that after four years here, a student will attain enough education to pursue his goal or career orientation in later life. She also attends to the emotional, social, and psychological needs of the students through personal counseling, group counseling, and interviews with parents and teachers. Overwhelmed with applications, Sister must fill 250 places next year from 430 applicants. This is done through reviewing applications individually and taking into account academics, extracurricula, and involvement in church and community. Believing that the growth potential here is great, she has seen the student enrollment grow from 636 to 950 over the past ten years. Seeing herself as a liaison between school and parents and school and community, Sister Regina was commended for her support and encouragement by the accreditation Transcripts are printed with a smile by Mrs. Elaine Condon.

Sister Betty is a very special, giving person who has made a niche for herself in the religious education center. As head of the religion department, she leads a very busy, active life. From 8-2 Sister Betty teaches such courses as Prayer Journey, Who | Am, and Death and Dying. She feels she has been asked to share her faith with young people; this is the vocation God has chosen for her. This is a most challenging job in ministry, for sharing one’s self and one’s faith is not an easy task. Sister Betty teaches from the heart instead of from a text. Sometimes there is little feedback because teenagers are hesitant to express how they feel. This does not daunt her however; she loves working with teenagers and in her opinion, ‘‘Teenagers are the holiest people on earth.’’ She has found that they are the most open to growth and discovery, filled with vitality and enthusiasm. Working with teenagers is a privilege for her, for every single person is special. Sister Betty has directed a retreat for Saint Mark’s Confirmation program for the past six years. She is also the director of aretreat offered to senior girls from Feehan and also from Bishop Gerard High School. In addition to this she has been the sole coordinator of the sophomore retreats offered here through the religion classes for the past seven years. Christ is at the center of her life and has helped Sister Betty to be an understanding friend to all and has helped us find the answers we seek. September brought us many new faces through the freshman class, as well as the faculty; among them, Mr. Brian Shanley. Coming to us straight from the Providence College class of 1980, he has much to offer Feehan, as a teacher of Psychology and American History, as well as an athletic coach. In his sophomore, junior, and senior years at Attleboro High School, he was captain of the varsity tennis team, in addition to participating in basketball senior year. After graduation, it was straight to Providence College, earning a Bachelor o f Arts degree in Political Science. Mr. Shanley displayed his ability in this field by being selected co-campaign manager in Attleboro for the re-election of congresswoman Margaret Heckler. More success in tennis followed as he was elected captain of the Friar’s tennis team during his senior year. Mr. Shanley will also begin coaching the Feehan boy’s tennis team this spring. Whether on the courts, taking a political stand, dressing preppie, or coaching CYO basketball, Mr. Shanley is bound to be on top. Sister Mary Enda Costello, R.S.M.

The ball whistles over the right field bleachers and their occupants. Catcalls, boos, and expletives erupt from the capacity-filled stands. However, one voice can be clearly heard above all: ‘Go, Yankees!”’ That voice can only belong to one person: our own Sister Olive Coupe! Her staunch support of Beantown’s long-time rivals can at times be dangerous. She jokingly admits that she runs the risk of being ‘‘thrown out of the stadium”’ at every game. “The Yankees are the best team in the league,’’ she explains, ‘“‘because they are never afraid to spend money and so they always get the best players.’’ Sister Olive has always been a baseball and basketball fan.

Her last sister married, as did three of her brothers. The fourth became a Carmelite priest (Father Augustine) , but Sister Olive just calls him Ed! At school, Sister teaches algebra. At one time she taught English as well but hasn’t for a couple of years because she likes math better. She also instructs Driver Education classes after school on Mondays and Wednesdays. She feels that her biggest challenge is in keeping the work interesting, because her students think they know it all anyway! Sister Olive is a natural to teach Driver Education because she is a fine driver herself. She gives a lot of her free time to” driving for other sisters in her community who are not able to. ‘‘l like to drive,’’ says Sister Olive simply. Integrity and determination are just two of the qualities which make Mr. Noonan an asset to the school. Mr. Noonan joined the ranks of the staff in September and has already added much to the community. He is a teacher of American History, Individual and the Law, and freshman English as well as the freshman football coach. Mr. Noonan has gained great experience through his lengthy coaching career. A native of Santa Barbara, California he began his long line of winning seasons at Pius X High School. In his first season there, his team finished second in the league. Mr. Noonan’s next coaching job was in St. Petersburg, Florida as assistant coach at Bishop Berry High. Then he moved on to New Mexico, where he became head coach for six years at St. Michael’s High School. Here, his team won the district title twice and reached the state finals. St. Michael’s became the champions and Mr. Noonan was honored as coach of the year. Nearly two decades of coaching experience which has spanned five states has made Mr. Noonan well prepared to tackle Feehan’s freshman team. He has found it a challenge and also helped the team earn a fine record of 6-2. Sister Marian McMichael, R.S.M. Algebra |, Levels |, II. Mrs. Nancy Mello French Il C, lll C, IIH, IIH.

Latin student’s presentation. 126 Faculty TWO LADIES WITH SANOIR FAIRE Veni, vidi, vici. .. Teacher, mother, world traveler... Mrs. Eleanor Kenney, our Latin and English teacher has filled her life with many fascinating adventures. She graduated cum laude with a BA in classics and philosophy from Radcliffe at the time of the Depression. The only job she could find was Americanization classes which entailed teaching English to those who couldn’t speak it. There was, however, a catch: the people that she taught were required to learn our language in three months or they would be shipped back to their native country. Mrs. Kenney held this job for a year. In 1936, Mrs. Kenney went to Germany, not as a tourist but as a reporter for the 36 Olympics — imagine interviewing Jesse Owens! She has visited only forty-seven of the fifty states. She plans to rectify this by covering Hawaii, Arizona, and New Mexico in the coming years. Mrs. Kenney has also visited several other countries: Scotland, Ireland, Holland, Belgium, France, Italy and most recently, England, to name a few. She said she loved them all. Her son, a Jesuit priest, is going to London to work for the Cultural Center for Mass Media so she may even be returning to England. Mrs. Kenney has raised seven children — six boys and one girl with the aid of her husband, a Massachusetts lawyer. She taught for twenty-five years in high schools throughout Massachusetts, among them, Wellesly, Walpole, . Needham, Franklin, and Brighton. Mrs. Kenney has been involved in the Junior Classical League for ten years and has been the Massachusetts Chairman for four years. She was also the co-chairman of the Aquinas League under Cardinal Cushing. Mrs. Kenney is still going strong and has many exciting plans for the future. She has an absolutely brilliant and fascinating mind — truly a woman with savoir-faire! “Como esta usted?”’ “Very well, thank you,”’ replies Mrs. Pilar Alonso, a native of Spain, who is temporarily living in Attleboro Falls while doing research for her doctoral thesis and teaching at Feehan.

Because of her past and present interest in this field, Mrs. Alonso enjoys teaching American Literature to the sophomores here at Feehan. Speaking Spanish, English, and French fluently, and having studied Latin, Greek, and Arabic, has enabled her to teach Spanish II classes with ease. Mrs. Alonso did not know until fifteen days prior to her departure from Spain, whether she was definitely coming or not; therefore she did not have time to send her things to America. The welcome shower given her by the faculty was gladly appreciated because she received some very useful household items that she and her family would need while living here. She has encountered many new things here; there are cultural differences; a totally new environment; and a new job. She had previously taught English to adults in Spain for one year but never before to high school students, yet Mrs. Alon so has settled in quite well and likes both her job and America. We welcome her and wish her much success with her doctoral studies. Buena suerte, Senora Alonso! With her smile and grace, Mrs. Alonso charms her Spanish classes.

They realize that Feehan is their home away from home and they are comfortable in their new establishment. Their spirit ‘“erupted’’ during Homecoming week and they proved how determined they were to show their uniqueness to everyone by placing third in the float competition.

BROTHERS-BORN TO RIDE Evel Knievel of Bishop Feehan? Maybe. Having ridden motorcycles for seven years, Paul Blackman started racing five years ago in ‘‘Motorcross’”’ which is off- road track racing with many jumps, corners, and hills. Paul is a member of the New England Minicycle Association; first, he started out on a 50cc mini bike and then moved on to an 80cc “‘minicycle’”’ four years ago. Having won over a hundred trophies, which include the 1978 New England Under-12 Championship, Paul races in all of the New England states and New York and Pennsylvania, where he raced in the Three-River Staidum in Pittsburgh. Another achievement was his competing in the Grand National Championships for ROTA Fah Gg f I ie ae i es the United States in Ponca City, Oklahoma and the winter nationals in Florida. Paul’s extracurricular activities include playing goalie on the Varsity hockey team, while his sophomore brother, Robert, plays defense on the same team. Riding for the past seven years and starting to race motorcross five years ago, Robert won the National Motorcycle Association Championship last year. He was also invited to compete in the International Yamaha Race of Champions to be held in California, but declined to enter.

Although she didn’t reach the Nationals, that goal is not out of the question. Sharon practices three days a week under the supervision of Don Henson, a pro at Baystate Racquet Club in Seekonk. Combining natural talents with hard work and endurance, Sharon is sure to be back again next year, displaying fine tennis form. TALKING UP A RACQUET One new face and different voice at Feehan this year is that of fourteen year old freshman, Lauren Wegerdct. Lauren has participated in speech contests over the last two years. In seventh grade she was in two contests and out of sixty youngsters she placed fourth, with an original oration. In eighth grade she participated in three; one at her school, where she came in first, and two at different schools, placing fourth in the latter two. These contests will prepare Lauren for the courtroom for she wishes to go on to law school. Lauren’s interests are numerous. She acts and sings; she was in the summer dramatics presentation of Oliver Twist. She has been playing soccer for five years and she is actively involved in student council. Lauren is an active, ambitious person, whose successful future is assured. September training keeps Frosh football team in shape under Coach Michael Noonan’s watchful eye.

The sophomores were no longer the little frosh looking for the elevator to take them to the fourth floor swimming pool. Suddenly, they were the ones teasing the frosh and showing the incoming freshmen the ropes. So, just what is a sophomore? Certainly not an underclassman, but not quite an upperclassman. .. yet! Instead, a sophomore is unique and in between the best of both worlds. Sophs have already learned much but there is even more to learn! The sophomore class was undaunted and ready to prove that they had the spirit and were indeed well on their way towards greatness.

Getting the float to look like anything other than a mound of Kleenex tissues was quite an accomplishment! Sophomores also displayed their rowdiness and enthusiasm throughout the year in their constant chatter, and Openness and in the friendly smiles they exchanged with friends and classmates. A special highlight of the sophomore year was the choosing and ordering of their class rings. Some students simply couldn’t choose among all the various colors and styles! Yet all were proud to have the opportunity to wear this special symbol of the school. Being a sophomore also brought about the opportunity of greater athletic involvement and achievement. Sophomores now tried out for junior varsity teams and those who were especially talented were accepted to varsity teams. This year also saw the revival of the junior varsity cheering squad, which caused much excitement among sophomore girls. Twelve girls were chosen to cheer for one varsity basketball game and all the junior varsity games. The sophomores tried and succeeded. They accepted the challenge of a difficult academic year and look forward with enthusiasm and anticipation to the prospect of becoming true upperclassmen.

For the past two years, Sharon has been practicing the art of caligraphy. She is self- taught, never having had formal training nor any artistic background. Sharon started this unusual hobby when she saw a heading on a letter. She tried copying it — with success. For her first school related project, she prepared posters for College Night with the help of Sister Mary Veronica. She also does lettering for the library and has lettered fund raising posters for the plays, Oliver and Godspell and for the International Food Night at Walpole High School. Sharon has also contributed her talent for the benefit of the community by doing a twenty foot sign in Walpole for the Veterinary Emergency Treatment Center. If a professional had been contracted, the sign would have cost three hundred dollars — but Sharon volunteered for free. | On her own, Sharon does all her own very personalized Christmas cards. She has also monogrammed car doors in the parking lot for several students at Feehan. Sharon has never done a poster for herself — and she has never lettered her own name on any of the work she has done. Instead, she prefers sharing her talents with others.

Elizabeth was born in the United States, but moved to Puerto Rico when she was very small. When she returned in 1976, she was very fluent in Spanish. This summer she got a chance to use her second language and fulfill her life’s ambition. Her uncle, Dr. Anthony Rocha, is employed at St. Joseph’s Hospital and was in need of a translator for three weeks for Spanish-speaking patients. Elizabeth volunteered, for she has always wanted to be a doctor and was thrilled at the prospect of some on-the-job training. Her uncle would take her on his rounds. Through Elizabeth, Dr. Rocha could get the patients’ condition and could transmit his responses and instructions. The part of the job that most fascinated Elizabeth was the emergency room. There she was shown certain techniques and procedures for emergency aid. She is also quite sure that medicine will be her profession. At present, she is only a student: however she is always on call. Que pasa? Prize-winning cake at the Social was delightful to behold, delicious to eat.

We were ‘‘coming out,”’ as the song says — coming out of our shells to surface as school and athletic leaders, and just overall important members of the Feehan community; participating in every aspect of Feehan: sports, Student Council, drama, and the marching unit. We were no longer to pass unnoticed. It was worth the wait. We had new responsibilites that stemmed from our new freedoms. We were learning to grow. The Class of 82 is destined to leave its mark on Feehan. Sure, we aren’t quite seniors yet, but look out, we are on Our way!

This year, a girls’ cross country team was started and the girls really proved themselves. Juniors, Mary Roque and Lori St. Hilaire helped to guide their favorite team to victory. As sophomores, both Mary and Lori showed their determination in Spring Track as their teammates realized their talents. Roque broke the record in the two-mile run, then repeated her effort when she broke it a second time. Both decided to run cross country for two reasons; to better prepare themselves for basketball and to show that girls’ sports are alive at Feehan. During cross country both ran approximately ten miles a day which explains their fantastic results. Both also participated in the Bonne Bell road race in Boston and the Massachusetts Catholic Conference meet where Mary finished first in the girls’ division. These two girls are very versatile athletes; running through fall in cross country, dribbling into winter with varsity basketball and strutting into spring in spring track.

BONJOUR, POUPEE | HOLA, MUNECA ! 144 Juniors How did you spend your summer: Jennifer Cook-Hornung spent hers travelling abroad as part of a group of 250 students representing the U.S. in eight countries in Europe. The organization was called Operation Friendship of America, Inc. There were sixteen students in her group in Glenrothes, an industrial town in the county of Fife. Each student lived with a family for three and one half weeks. While there she travelled to cities such as Edinburgh, Glasgow, Kirkcaldy, Preswick — the American built airport, and St. Andrew’s by the North Sea, the world famous golf course. Highlighting her trip were visits to the Edinburgh Castle, the Highland Games, and the military Tatoo at Edinburgh Castle. According to Jennifer ‘‘The friendships | made, and the cultures exchanged are things that | will treasure forever. | eagerly look forward to the visit of the Europeans this coming summer and to my return visit to Scotland.”’ Jennifer's interest in foreign cultures is carried over to her home life. A population of approximately 80 inhabits her room... 80 dolls, that is! She started collecting dolls when she was eight years old. Since these dolls now threaten to take over her room, some have taken up residence in the Mansfield Public Library. Others remain at home in a revolving Timex display case, or pop up for display in the area. Her grandmother initiated her collection by giving her ‘Madame Alexander’ dolls. Her collection contains dolls from all over the world, including Kor ea, Tangiers, Spain, Greece, Gibralter, and Scotland. She has two antique dolls, one of which, an heirloom doll, belonged to her great- great aunt. It has real hair and a china head. The other is a rag doll from the mid- 1800's. She also owns a number of limited edition dolls such as a rag doll from the Smithsonian Institute. Someday, Jennifer plans to hand down her collection of dolls to her grand- daughter, ‘‘just like my grandmother handed these down to me!”’ Mansfield Library now displays this part of Jennifer Cook-Hornung’s collection of international dolls.

The first was Brendan Doherty, from the class of 1977, who finished his career with 1023 points. Mark has surpassed that total and has become Feehan’s all time leading scorer.

He was amazed by the simian-type make-up and immediately set about and succeeded in duplicating those prosthetic creations on his friends. Viewing ‘‘The Exorcist’ brought WILLIAM V.

Last fall, Bruce had the title role in the play “‘Dracula”’ at school and he even designed the special effects for the show. Right now, he is working on a short horror film about demons terrorizing a family in an old house. With plenty of gore? Absolutely! He is also preparing a portfolio containing a select number of make-ups that will be worn by classmate Amie Hodgkins. Then, he will send this portfolio to Dick Smith, whose address he finally located after many years. Bruce is very excited about where this could lead him. Jaws III? One-two-three-ten, one-two-three-eleven ... Gym students do push-ups on the soccer field. One-two-three-twenty! The whistle blows. The boys rise and begin a few quick laps around the track. ‘‘Cut! Let’s try that again. Try to stay more together this time. Action!”’ Wait a minute! This is obviously no ordinary gym class. It’s actually a scene from a movie. The movie is “‘The Mourning After’’ and its director is senior, Paul Amirault. The film, which is nearing completion, is based upon the short-story Paul wrote in Shaman last year. When the movie is completed, Paul will send it to a few major super-8 film contests across the country. Paul always loved to watch movies, but when he was in the fifth grade, he realized that he could make his own using his father’s old 8mm camera system with earnings from his paper route. His first ‘‘big’’ film was a satirical horror movie called ‘‘Flush!”’ an offbeat tale of a killer toilet. “‘Mourning”’ is his latest (and first serious) offering. Feehanites in the cast include Peter Tedeschi, Jennifer Wims, and Christine Paradis. Films to come include ‘‘The Exorsow’’ (Miss Piggy replaces Linda Blair in this spoof) and an as yet untitled horror flick. At the goat farm is Paul Amirault at the Lion Country Safari, Florida. Man with many faces, Bruce Zahlava not only plays his roles well but also creates character masks. CHERYL A. KENNEY Plainville, MA CHRISTOPHER S. KENT Pawtucket, Ri JOHN M.
