prom, spring was on its way. With spring came the disease which usually hits seniors around this time of the year-senior- itis. Some cases were very bad!! We did have our senior play to keep us going, though. Teahouse of the August Moon was a great success, also. We hope the wear and tear on Mr. Griffin's nerves will be cured soon. We can't see how anyone could have been so patient with us! During May, all our thoughts turned toward graduation. Be- fore we knew it, the time had come. We all agreed that Mr. Willets, who had worked so hard for us through the years, de- served a reward. How was your swim at the class picnic Mr. Willetts? June arrived all too soon. We couldn't believe this was really our graduation day. With mixed feelings, each of us received our diploma. A little misty eyed, we said good-bye to the school that had been so much a part of our lives. by V , X 17

We still can't quite figue out how that big pile of snow was dumped in the middle of the senior walk. Oh well, I guess it will always be a mystery! Cright Stone Brakers?D There are many things which remain in our minds about our junior year. How could we ever forget chemistry!!! Especially those poor students who handed in their OPX'S on confetti paper! Well anyway, by mid- terms most of us had given up on chemistry, and our brains began working on a more pleasant subject: The Junior Prom. After much debate, we decided our theme would be Carouself' We also decided to be the first class ever to have a popular band, The Vandells, play for us. Through much hard work our prom was the greatest ever. No one even tried to ride the Carousel! After the prom, time flew. Before we knew it, sum- mer vacation had come again. No one was unhappy to return to school in September be- cause we had finally made it. We were UTHE SENIORST To lead our class we chose Paul Swem as president, Jon Holt as vice-president, Kathy Walsh as secretary, JoAnne Harper as treasurer, and Kathy Belvin as social Chairman. As it turned out, out last year was the best. We all have so many senior memories. To start the year off right, our senior laden football team gave Cheshire its best record in years. Almost every Satur- day there was a victory party at jacks. The Cross Country team, also filled with seniors, won the Housatonic League championship. One very odd thing happened in the fall. Around Halloween time, it seemed that all the pumpkins in town disappeared and ended up in the oddest place: the senior court. Some people claim they saw the seniors climbing over the school roofs with bundles of pumpkins. But we can't see how this ever could have happened C?!D After Halloween, we all looked forward to the big Homecoming weekend. With our 37 to 6 trounce of Lyman Hall, and our gaining of both beanpots, the weekend was a great success. The king was Paul Pasqualoni and the queen, Kathy Loonam, the court was Susan Loonam, Eaul Swem, Mike Votto, Mark Kuhn, Linda Ernst, Nancy Kelley, Lee Moulton, and Kathy Belvin. We all missed the Saturday games and week- day meets for awhile, but basketball was on the way. With December, we all looked forward to Christmas. For the first time, the Student Council sponsored a hall decorating contest among the classes. It was generally agreed that we seniors did have the more sophisticated decorations, but the mod juniors had the more spectacular ones. Oh well, at least the senior court- yard looked its best in years. How did that tree ever grow over- night anyway? Some say it came the same way the pumpkins did. Well, it showed our Christmas spirit anyway. january flew by. February brought with it our senior prom, Frosted Fantasy. The N.A.I.F. livened the night. We all ar- rived home around three Ca.m. or p.m.?D. After the senior 16
