Which option will YOU choose? 4 OPENING : b , ecisions — those unavoidable decisions! They greet ev- eryone everyday — small decisions, big decisions, hard “8 decisions, simple decisions — every kind of decision imaginable! And options always accompany them, sometimes as numerous and complex as the decisions themselves. But what would life be without choice? If everything were programmed, regulated, regimented until futures ran a single, pre-plotted course — how boring life would be! At Classical, decisions abounded with unrelenting regularity, escorted by their troop of options, in as many ways, shapes and forms as there were people. As in previous years, decisions ranged from those important ones confronting governments such as armaments treaties, relief of hunger, and conquering the fuel shortages to the ones facing the average student who, at the blare of his alarm clock, had the option of jumping out of bed, flinging off the covers joyfully, smiling a happy good-morning, or (as was the more common choice) groping for the nasty alarm, snuggling deeper into the warmth of his bed, and snatching another few minutes of precious sleep. While choices are present all the time, this year, 1980, the beginning of a decade, seemed to accent their presence. It was 1980, with a whole package of ten years stretching beyond it — ten years to create and to produce, to strive and to win — ten years to do anything, to accomplish everything, to be anyone. By offering a wide selection of activities,Classical became a fine place for students to find their interests and discover their abilities and latent talents. An acclaimed athlete may have suddenly discovered he had brains as_ well as brawn, and _ joined the Senate in addition to the football team,or a shy, withdrawn girl may have decided to break out of her shell and try for the cheer- leading squad. The opportunities were there. Besides electing many of their courses, students had quite a selection of clubs and sports and organiza- tions to pick from, ranging from joining a special homeroom such as Student Patrol or AVA, to trying out for any one of Classical’s sports team, or becoming a member of a choral group, or the Foreign Language Club, or the drill team Classical may have provided many opportunities and options, but the year could never have ended in fun and productivity without each student deciding to help make it such a year. Classical students were challenged to make the most of their school year, be they seniors, juniors, sophomores, or freshmen. This book is a record of Classical in this 1980, this beginning of a decade. Just which options did the Bulldogs choose this year? Where were they going? Whom were they seeing? What did the Classical Bulldogs do? OPENING 5 s Classical students sat in their classes, their attention often strayed from their teachers, homework, and class- work. They stared out windows reflecting on the past and anticipating the future. Students’ hopes and expectations for the future were always on their minds; whether it was deciding what college to go to, what subject to major in, or how to pay their tuition, it was never forgotten. Some students dreamed of the far away future concentrating on their careers as not only scientists, journalists, and teachers, but professional athletes, musicians, or models. Others may have imagined themselves married with families of their own. Some students dreamed about the many good times they spent at Classical. As a refreshing time out from their hectic schedules, they thought about the rallies where everyone screamed and proclaimed, ‘“‘Classical is 1”, they watched Classical’s athletes display their talents; and they dreamed of the pleasant times spent with friends between classes. Underclassmen dreamed of being seniors when they could rule the school but it was the seniors who had the most to look forward to. The Class of 1980 dreamed of senior hats, early dismissals, the banquet, the prom, and of course- GRADU- ATION. Graduation, the day that everybody looks forward to, when the daydreaming in classes is over but the reminiscing of Classical is just beginning. 6 STUDENT LIFE o 1.

STUDENT LIFE 8 STUDENT LIFE urry, you'll miss the bus!” “What time shall I pick you” . up?” ‘But, Ms. McCarthy, the bus never came!” These were some of the cries and complaints often heard at Classical High. One of students’ many plights in attending school __ was finding a method of transportation to and from Classical. = Most of the students used the good ole’ city and school buses __ as their means of commuting. After going through the hassles of | acquiring bus tickets and badges, students fought to get seatson smoke filled buses packed with weary and listless students. The bus also offered students an excuse for being late to school. When they walked in ten minutes late because they were chatting with friends and lost track of time, they simply said that _ the bus was late, or better yet, that the bus never came, and insisted they shouldn’t be marked tardy. Wee the excuse was valid or not, however, was another story! _ There were more fortunate students at Classical who were allowed to use Mom and Dad’s car to get to school. The students _ offered their friends rides in their car, taking them away from the © drawn out journey to school on the buses. Girl friends were — dropped off by their men, and kids were delivered by their Moms. In every case, a ride in a quiet, warm car was luxury compared to a a ride in the clanky old buses. == Less fortunate students also existed at Classical those who had _ to walk through the rain, snow, sleet, and sun every morning of — every day of the school year. These students who lived less than _ two miles from school and didn’t wish to pay to ride the city bus, _ found walking their best means of transportation. _ In all of these cases, students had an option in choosing their means of transportation to their ultimate destination: Classical — igh School! : 1. Mobs of students prior to the bus journey home. 2. Kelly Pickrell avoids the crowds with Mom and Dad’s Duster. 3. Last stop: Classical High! 4. PVTA on its sloshy hike up State street. 5. Rosemary Maida lucks out with a ride by a Cobra! STUDENT LIFE flames, and fe latest romances. It was nice to see the same, familiar couples still together; and exciting to see the beginnings of new loves. On the mature side, _ the senior couples made promises and had dreams for the future; - wondering and worrying if their love would last. On the lighter _ side, underclassmen couples enjoyed the present, relishing the romantic aspects of school life, not realizing as life would become more serious in a year or two. While walking down the hall between classes, one ae e ee - blind not to see romance in action: a glimpse here of a stolen kiss, a glimpse there of a touching moment. These were common sights at Classical. Lockers and lunches were shared by boyfriend and girlfriend; and a boy’s school ring was often Se on the hand of his special girl. Another side to romance at Classical was the presence a the: “swinging singles.’’ The senior Casanovas often found tough competition from the up and coming Romeos. On the other hand, some Seniors began to eye those from younger classes, realizing that the underclassmen were not so little anymore. This flirta- tious, often humorous side of romantic life added a lot of excite- __ ment and appeal to Classical High. However, romance was not always as great as it was cracked up to be. Perhaps the most frustating part of the romantic side of student life was the worrying over who would go with whom to such functions as the Christmas Dance, the Junior Prom, and most of all the Senior Prom-the last formal dance of a high school student’s life. Some students started thinking about worthwhile prospects as early as September and October. They certainly did not want to miss out on the good times! The atmosphere at Classical was enhanced a great deal by the : amorous side of life. Romance provided relaxation and enjoy- ment for Classical’s dim hallways. It also served as a spirit-lifter for the discouraged and the depressed. Romance was, without a doubt, a necessary and interesting part of life this year at Classi- cal. 10 STUDENT LIFE How Do I Love Thee? — Let Me Count The Ways . omance has always provided a different twist to the basic _ hum-drum schedule of classes.

STUDENT LIFE 11 12 Garden Goodies ertainly one of the greatest options which faced the students of 1980 at Classical was an addition to the dull, routine lunches in the school cafeteria: a salad bar was installed. The salad bar offered the © students a variety of choices for lunch. They could have stayed with the old hot and cold lunches, or they could have gone in for a deli- cious, cool salad. The salads were not the ev- ery-day dry salads; besides the basic greens and _ tomatoes, there were croutons, meats, cheeses, — : fruits, potato and macaroni salads, jellos, rolls, and bacon bits, as well as four choices of salad _ dressings. To make the deal even more worth- while, students could take as much as they _ could fit on their plates — all this, plus milk, for —__ a mere thirty cents. With the addition of the salad bar, to students were encouraged to eat lunch; thus, —_— the cafeteria was jam-packed. Students rushed - down to lunch, trying to get first in line for the __ tasty, nutritious food. The line often extended __ half the length of the cafeteria, and yet, every : one who wanted th e salad got it. ee There was no doubt that the idea of Co oe cal’s salad bar had caught on very quickly. The __ salads at Classical were, indeed, a welcome — addition, for they provided the same, old stu- dent life with a aay oe el anes students. 4.

The group was composed of Mr. Neil Yesu, as- suming the responsibilities of principal, Miss Ann McCarthy serving as vice - principal, along with Mr. James Nodurf, also vice - principal. Mr. Yesu, a former English teacher and vice - principal, wasted no time in putting his new administrative ideas to work. He was deter- mined to put Classical back on top as a college preparatory school. New homework rules were issued making mandatory two hours of homework per night. Parents received letters informing them of this new ruling to insure its success. Special absenteeism and detention rules were also put into effect. Students who missed 30 days of school or more were automatically required to repeat that year of school. Those receiving detention | i 7 r Mr. Neil Yesu - Principal this year could no longer sleep the time away; they were required to bring study material. Working along side of Mr. Yesu was Miss Ann McCarthy, a former English teacher. As Classical’s first female vice - principal, she worked hard to reach the new goals set for Classical. Besides disciplining students, her job included keeping students off the school’s front steps between classes and keeping peace in the lunch room. Mr. James Nodurf, another member of the team and a former Classical math teacher, also played an active role in running Classi- cal. His job involved student discipline problems, authorization of assemblies, and general enforcing of school rules. The three administrators worked closely together throughout the year. By and by their hopes became reality. The students of Classi- cal can thank this capable team for carrying on the many fine traditions of Classical High School. Miss Ann McCarthy - Vice-principal Mr. James Nodurf - Vice-principal Mr. Gerald Canter - counselor Mrs. Betty Moody - counselor Mr. James Wilkie - counselor Helping To Reach A Goal hom did every student at Classical see at least twice during the school year? Whom did students go to for course “} changes? That’s right, their guidance counselor. Blue White interviewed a few of the counselors to find out just what their job consisted of and to learn what the goals of their job were. They all had different views on the subject but each agreed on the basic purpose of their job. A counselor’s purpose is to try to help students evaluate themselves honestly and to encour- age them to obtain goals within their potential. Among those interviewed was Mrs. Corcoran, a junior counsel- or. She felt her job was important because it contribu ted to the improvement of society by aiding the future generation. Mr. Wat- son, another junior counselor, felt his job was to help students through rough spots and shed realism when needed. Mr. Watson also believed that it was important to be a good listener. Mrs. Cabana, a senior counselor, held the opinion that her job Miss Mary Corcoran - counselor Mrs. Cathlene Smith - counseling office was to serve all the needs of the students. She believed it essential to guide the students through their educational planning and, when ever possible, to ease their financial worries. The freshman and sophomore counselor, Mr. Wilkie, dealt with many new students this year. He considered it important to help them adjust academically and socially to their new school. He thought that patting the student on the back every now and then was good for morale. Blue White also questioned the counselors on the problems faced in their average day at Classical. The answer was that each counselor conferred with an average of fifteen students per day. They aided the students in course selections, reported college information, and tried to help students realize their own goals in life. Along with helping the students, the counselors spent time in discussions with parents, teachers, and administration. They also attacked heaps of paperwork, program changes, and question- naires. But, even though they had busy schedules, the counselors al- ways found time to help a student with problems. 15 Loss Of Tradition? hat’s going to happen to Classical? That was probably a heavy question in the minds of many students this year. ) Plans deciding Classical’s fate had been in circulation for the past ten years. These plans included not only Classical but her partner Technical High School. City officials hoped that Classical and Technical would someday be one school located away from the already crowded downtown area. new school would be needed. Temporary repairs prolonged Classi- cal’s life and kept her in good working condition for many students. But, Classical has reached a point where repairs would be far too numerous and costly: the only option remaining is a new school. The question of what would happen to Classical’s traditional values if it combined with Technical High also preyed heavily on the minds of those associated with the school. Would Classical still be known for her fine curriculum and excellent college prepara- tion? Or, would Classical move toward a more diversified regional high school? For the answer to this and other questions concerning Of course, sad as the idea was, everyone knew that someday a Classical’s future, time must be allowed to take its course.

Mr. William Conway - Social Rules And Regulations aa) t seemed to many students at Classical this year that along | with the new administration came many new and strict rules. Rumors were circulating the school. Students heard ne if they skipped one period and got caught it meant six hours of detention, while for skipping a whole day, they would receive twelve hours of detention. Another rumor heard around school was that if a student missed more than thirty days of the school year, he would automatically be required to repeat the grade he was in. Blue and White interviewed Miss Ann McCarthy and Mr. James Nodurf, two of Classical’s assistant principals, to learn the truth of the matter. The facts differed greatly from the rumors. A student caught skipping one class received four hours of detention, not six, while a student caught for skipping the entire day was given five hours of detention, not the twelve hours which You skipped a class! the rumor stated. Along with these rules for punishment of skip- ping were regulations for tardiness and detention. As for tardiness, after a student was tardy seven times, a letter was sent home to the parents of the student making them aware of the problem. Ten tardies during the year may have resulted in suspension, depending on the situation. In relation to this, a new rule passed this year stated that any student late five times received an hour of deten- tion. As for priority of detention, a teacher’s detention out-ranked office detention. Students may have felt that four hours detention for skipping a class seemed terribly strict. The administration felt that by being strict with the students who abused privileges, they would discour- age continued abuse and protect the privileges of the good stu- dents. When asked why all these changes were made, Miss Ann McCar- thy stated that the rules were always there, they were just being enforced more. FACULTY 17 18 Sec No Exceptions! s many new options arise for students each year, so Ae may old ones be taken away. The seniors at Classical T were faced with just that crisis. Their option in taking physical education was no more! They were stranded in the same, dull routine which they had faced in their freshman, sophomore and junior years. The option of taking gym was a privilege granted to those students who reached the final year of their secondary educa- tion; a privilege long awaited for and well appreciated by all seniors; a senior privilege! For one reason or another, un- known to most students, this privilege was taken away. Seniors were required to take gym. This decision not only affected seniors, but the underclass- men as well. No longer could juniors get out of gym to take Driver Education. They had to find an “‘extra”’ study period to take the course. Sophomores were not given health classes during a marking period of gym, previously a mandatory course. Even the athletes were affected. No more athletic studies were granted to allow them time for homework. Every- Mr. Robert Farr - Science Mr. John Denis - Language —i Voeees oa Mr. David Douglas - Language Mr. Elliot Dyer - Art FACULTY iting | ee ¥ : E- i i a Ml i one took gym all the time! There was, however, one advantage to this dilemma, as small and insignificant as it may be. Seniors and juniors only had gym class twice a week, rather than the previous four times a week. For the juniors it was a great improvement — for the seniors it was another senior privilege taken away. English Mrs. Frances Evans - Social Mr. Craig Dinnie - Mr. Robert Donovan - ndust.

With this extensive program students had many options in choosing which language to take and what level to work in. French classes offered students a wide range of levels beginning with French I and advancing as far as French VAP; an excelled course for those students who wished to have advanced placement credit for college. French was a greatly favored subject of many students and often prompted them to visit France on a special school trip during the April vacation. Mr. Francis Girr - English Mr. Richard Guzowski - Science - ™ | ; 4 | j Mr. Edward Hart - Math Mr. Armen Jermakian - Math Another of the languages that allowed students freedom of choice was Spanish. Spanish was popular with many students due to its increased use throughout the community and abroad. The sequence for Spanish went as follows: Spanish I, Spanish 2j, Span- ish 3X, and Spanish 4X. This year the Spanish 4X class was based on a newly formed curriculum centered around new texts and teaching material. The course not only allowed students to learn the Spanish language, but also to become acquainted with the geography and culture of Spanish speaking people. This year Latin was also popular with many students. It seemed to be one of the classic languages that met success in its attempted revival. It was especially liked by students planning to enter medi- cal fields of study in college along with those interested in its roots in modern day English. So, if foreign languages were a student’s interest, Classical was defintely the place to pursue the interest. FACULTY 19 Wonder Workers lone in a rapidly darkening room, a dedicated teacher corrects papers, one cog in the huge machinery of Classi- cal High. He’s doing his part. A counselor slips off his glasses and rests for a moment after a morning rush of schedule- alterations. He’s doing his part. In the halls, the vice-principals patrol, to keep some sort of order. They’re doing their parts. And at the top of the ladder, Mr. Yesu tips back in his chair, making arrangements on the phone. He’s doing his part. So many people did their parts, but what about the less- recognized staff who did their parts too? For instance, the entire school population enjoyed a tidy, well-kept school, thanks to the janitors and matrons. Few, if any thought about the necessary job, yet it was so important! Most students viewed the janitors as the stoic-faced men who tended to the trash barrels at lunch, and i ala Home Ec. Miss Velma Jordan - ik English Miss Patricia Keenan - he Mr. Michael Kokonowski - Mr. John Krom - Science English 20 FACULTY never gave them a second thought. Yet, what a mess the cafete- ria would have been without them to care for it. Another group of less-recognized workers were the cooks. Each morning, they prepared a variety of meals for the students, served them under the pressure of the lunchtime rush, then spent the afternoon cleaning up and enjoying their own well-deserved lunch. Contributing to the organizing of the school was that much abused bunch — the office workers. Often harried, their once peaceful office overrun by students demanding slips for early dismissals, lunch tickets, passes and the morning paper, the office workers helped hold the school together. Without their organiza- tion, the school would have been at a loss. The work of these people often went unpublicized, but the results were always noticed. Three cheers for Classical’s wonder workers!

The purpose was to find ¥ the differences at Classical then compared to now. The teachers interviewed were Dr. Donald D’Amato, Ms. Patri- cia Keenan, and Mr. Richard Pervonga. Each had different opin- ions on the changes but they did agree on one thing, that the discipline at Classical years ago was much stricter. Smoking was not permitted on school grounds at all. There was also a dress code where the girls had to wear dresses and skirts. Jeans and tee shirts could not be worn and sneakers could only be worn in gym class. Imagine not being able to wear Levis to school! If a student did not follow the dress code he was sent home. Mr. Richard Pervonga was sent home for wearing the red suspenders he had gotten for Christmas. ry rit Mr. Michael Ligarski - Math Mr. Edward Lundrigan - Science Clauces Mr. David Macomber - Language MELAAAL IV) ) = a) Mrs. Maria Mazzei - Language When asked if they thought there was more school spirit then or now, they differed in opinion. Ms. Keenan felt there is more school spirit now. Mr. Pervonga thought that students had more school spirit when he was in Classical because they were more proud of being Classical students. Dr. D’Amato believed that school spirit is about the same. However, he does think that Classical has more school spirit than the other high schools. One saw more students wearing Classical jackets outside of school than Commerce or Technical for example. When asked about the quality of education, Ms. Keenan said the quality of education is still very high but it seemed like there was more academic pressure and competition then. Dr. D’Amato however differed slightly by saying that the kids try just as hard as before and have maintained Classical’s tradition. He also said he enjoyed working with Classical students because they were well- mannered. FACULTY 21 As Easy As 1,2,3? nce a year every Classical student must choose a math (( e course for the following year. Most found this a tedious and very confusing job. Some students believed that one needed a college degree just to decipher the codes. Math 3, 4rc, 1-c-2, 4x, 4rt, 3x, consumer math, 4, 2, 4s, and computer math- what did all these mean? After much effort, they discovered that Classical had many useful options for them. Once the required classes of math 1, 2, and 3(known to many as algebra 1, geometry, and algebra 2) were finished, Classical’s students could take specialized courses. These were designed to give students a taste of many different aspects of math. Students who were going to major in a math related field could take trigonometry (math 4) and eventually calculus (4s). For others Mr. Daniel Meder - Social Mr. James O’Donnell - Science Mrs. Mary Mushok - Math 22 TACULTY who needed to review maths 1 through 3, there were math 4rt and 4rc. In math 4rt, trigonmetry was taught as well as the reviewing. Math 4rc brought a new aspect to math-consumer math, which could also be taken alone. Consumer math helped students learn a kind of math that they would need long after high school. Learning how to do income tax forms, and how to balance a budget were only a few of the things. Students also learned that buying a car was more expen- sive than it looked. Consumer math prepared students for the future. If a student was considering a career dealing with computers, he could take computer math. This course was designed as an introduction to computers. It helped students to see if they would like to major in a related field. No matter what the interest of a student, Classical had a math class for him.

Mr. Paul Robbins - Music Minor Subjects: A Major Undertaking hat student hasn’t experienced a boring study, when those fifty minutes seem to be fifty hours? Sitting there and sitting there, watching clock hands that don’t move, the student suddenly wishes he had work to do, no matter how insane the thought is. Well, some students opted not to waste periods twiddling their thumbs, by signing up for elective courses. An elective course is a course that is not required to be taken, and is not a full-credit course. Courses, such as band, met four periods a week all year, twice a week all year, such as typing, or Miss Linda Rozzi - Math four periods a week for half the year, such as psychology I. A student may have signed up for an elective course for any number of reasons. Avoiding unnecessary studies or a genuine interest in the class were common reasons, but a need to accumu- late course credits for graduation helped fill classrooms too! When a student enrolled, he could not expect to breeze through the year with the teacher entertaining him. A minor subject had to be taken as seriously as a major, and sometimes students discovered that their half-credit course was more stimu- lating and challenging than a full-credit course! Time and effort were required to succeed in such a class, but the satisfaction which resulted usually proved quite worth the extra effort. If asked about their elective courses, any student was likely to exclaim, ‘“‘Minor subjects are a major undertaking!”’ FACULTY 23 Health Help hat one place did students turn to during the year when they needed medical help; and even when they didn’t? That’s right, the nurse’s office. Many times during the average day nurse Lydia Tutt heard the common cries, “I have a headache,” “‘My stomache hurts,’’ “‘Can you give me some aspi- rin?”’ and the usual “I’m sick - I want to go home.” Naturally, along with the sick students there were always a few wolf - cryers seeking a haven from tests and incomplete homework assign- ments. The nurse was left with weeding out the fakers from the rest, and sending them on their way. For those students who were ill enough to be sent home, Mrs. Tutt had to get in touch with Mr. Robert Smith - Science their parents - sometimes a difficult task - and inform them of the illness. Although this may have been a trying time for the sick student, it was all a very necessary procedure. While the school nurse was around mainly for the advantage of sick students, her job also entailed other duties. Besides working with the students, she was responsible for updating school health records and checking to see that everyone had been properly immunized. In the case of special immunization clinics such as the measles clinic and tuberculosis testing, the nurse aided in distribu- tion of shots and reading of results. The nurse’s job was very involved and students at Classical were very lucky to have her around when they weren’t feeling their best.

Miss Virginia Donigan taught American history, while a related course, American studies, was instructed by Dr. Donald D’A- mato. In addition to American studies, Dr. D'Amato taught world history and psychology. The Science Department received its Miss Barbara Weissbrod - Math Mrs. Jeanne Wessman - Language Mr. James Walsh - Vice-principal share of new teachers, too, welcoming Mr. John Krom and Mr. Michael Burns, both biology teachers, with Mr. Burns also teach- ing chemistry. Mr. Edward Hart and Mrs. Linda Abbott joined the staff of the Math Department, making a fine group even better. To the Language Department came Mr. John Denis, who educat- ed students in Latin because of the increased popularity of this language, and Mr. Miguela Ayerue. Mr. Elliott Dyer became a member of the Art Department, offering his creative abilities to the student body. Each of these new teachers helped make this school year a productive, enjoyable year. They filled a need for c hange and growth, necessary to a changing and growing school such as Classical. Classical was lucky to find such able teachers! FACULTY 25 A Day In The Life Of A Teacher eacher X pulled into a parking space beside Classical Te High School and looked at his watch. It was 7:15 in the morning. He always left his house early so that he could get a parking space; and the free time he had before school started enabled him to collect his thoughts for the busy day ahead. Once inside the building, he enjoyed walking down the quiet, empty hallways because he knew how crowded and noisy they would get later. In the class he looked over his schedule for the day and chuckled to himself. He could just picture how his students would react when he announced the surprise quiz. The glares, swears, groans, and pained expressions he received always amused him. If looks could kill, he would have been dead a long time ago. Much to his students’ disgust, he felt that surprise quizes were a benefit. If the students knew he was giving a surprise quiz every now and then, they would study more carefully. He took the corrected homework papers out of his briefcase and placed them on his desk. He did not usually take home papers to correct but because there were so many he thought he should. There was still a big pile left to do. Might as well get a few more done now. Finally school began and students were everywhere. The halls were noisy and mobbed but soon began to empty out near the start of homeroom period. During homeroom period teacher X read the announcements but no one listened. The Polish football game in the corner of the room seemed to have everyone’s attention. First, second, and third period were similar. The quiz was given. Only half the class had done the homework, no wonder the majority looked depressed. However, Myrtle Brown looked en- thusiastic. She greedily snatched her quiz paper and started working. She was the first one done. Teacher X began discussing the chapter and kicked Homer Glick who had fallen asleep again. He could not remember Homer staying awake the whole period. He liked Homer though because he never caused any trouble, he just slept. Teacher X decided to be nice and didn’t give any homework. Finally, fourth period and lunch time came. He usually went down to the teacher’s lounge to eat with his colleagues but today he had a craving for a Big Mac. He decided to eat at McDonalds. After lunch he had a free period. He continued correcting homework papers and also the surprise quizes. A student came in slightly upset and said he didn’t understand the chapter. Teacher X gladly went over what the student had trouble with and the student left feeling relieved and reassured. It was not as difficult as he had thought; in fact it was simple. What a nice guy teacher X was for taking the time to help-he must have been busy- just look at the stack of papers on his desk. The last period of the day finally arrived. His sixth period class came in and prepared to do their oral reports. Everything was going fine until Mary Smith got up to do her oral report. Poor Mary started sputtering and twitching and could not finish. Then she began laughing hysterically so was asked to sit down. What a long day it had been. It felt like a Monday. Even Mary was feeling the effects of it. When 2:10 finally came around everyone was happy. Teacher X was happy because now he could go home, put his feet up and just relax. Homer Glick was happy because he could go home and sleep. Mary Smith was happy. She could go home, lock herself in her room, and refuse to come out so she would never have to do an oral report again. Myrtle Brown was happy too. She was looking forward to tomorrow and seeing her quiz mark. She just had this feeling she did terrific. Another day, another A for Myrtle. The school day was over and everyone went home. What will tomorrow bring? Mr. Lussier is pleased with the home- work. Mr. Lamoureux studies his lesson plan. Extra help never hurts. 26 FACULTY Always time to have some fun. ho would believe that one day these cute little fellows would grow to become prominent Classical High School teachers? That’s right, each one of these adorable little guys is a member of the faculty. They may be found amid the English department, Science department, and the Math department. Many students have had them as subject teachers. They are Mr. Craig Dinnie, Mr. Edward Lundrigan, Mr. Robert Smith, and last but not least Mr. Robert Keough. Take a good look at them, then try to match the faces to the names. If guessing gets to be too much of a hassle, don’t despair. The answers can be found below. 1. Mr. Craig Dinnie 2.

SBE A high school student needs money to keep up with the latest clothing trends, to pay for gas, entertainment and dates. When faced with the money dilemma, the student has two options: borrow money from his parents for the remainder of his high school days or get a job. Most students choose to get a part-time job. As one student put it, ‘“Money is a necessi- ty and working is just a means to support the need.” Because more and more students enter the job market every year, it has become increas- ingly difficult to find a part-time job. One can always rely on supermarkets to provide work. Many students are also able to find jobs at fast- food restaurants, clothing stores, and hospitals, libraries, and rest homes. Many students have four or five major sub- jects and are constantly being pressured by parents and students to keep up their grades. This fact makes holding a job more difficult. Sports, clubs, chorus rehearsals, and chores also use up valuable study time. It is left to the student to find time to do homework, which is usually during study halls and home room per- iods. Despite the constant pressures that come with a job, students learn how to cope. The homework does get finished, the trash does get put out, and the dentist appointment does not get missed. For the student of today, it is all ina day’s work. 1.

Didn’t you feel that your life ) would change overnight? Well, perhaps life did not change overnight, but life has changed, and life has changed us. The silliness of junior high has given way to serious plans for our futures. We have come a long way from frightened underclassmen to top dogs of the school. At times, it was not an easy trip, but most of us survived those killer math tests, being ‘“‘shot down’”’ by that prospective prom date, or losing the BIG game. However, things were not all bad- there was the time you aced the midterm, that special person bought you a carnation, or you scored the winning point. This is your section, full of the familiar faces of your friends. We hope that it helps you to recall your memories of high school life, years from now, when your friends are scattered, and this building is an extension of the neighboring parking lot. So, don’t lose this book! In it is stored the only permanent record of your senior year.

Maybe we had summer or part time jobs, but we always knew where we would be when September came - back in school. But what now? Where will we be in Septem- ber, 1980? Or for that matter, September of 1990? Because we are seniors, we face a new situation - choice. Will we choose col- lege? A job? The service? These options are open to all of us. If you choose college, you will still be a student for as least two more years before entering the “working world.” The work in college is, of course, harder than that in high school, but at college you can pick what you want to learn instead of being assigned something like French I or Math II. Another aspect of college, and probably its biggest attraction, is the chance that when we agra- duate we will find a good job that offers a large salary. Our second possibility is going right from high school to a job. This is for those of us who want (or need) money right away. But a job is difficult for the average Classical gra- duate to come by, as our curriculum is geared to higher education instead of imme- diate entrance to a paying position. So, we will consider choice number three. Our third option is the service. This is for students who: a) wish to serve their country 32 SENIORS STEVEN AHALDAS JULIE ANDERSON MICHELE AKERS 27 Middlebrook Dr. Band KARA ANDERSON 151 Birchland Ave. or b) are undecided between college or a job and need time to think. The services have a lot to offer. The enlisted person can travel the world for free, be paid while learning a skill, and then possibly use this skill upon return to civilian life. Examine each of your options carefully, and then decide which course is best for you. This decision could be one that affects the rest of your life. JEANNE ALLARD 18 Trillium St. Blue and White Bus.

DENISE BURGER 131 Hudson St. Girls’ Swim Team Mgr,, Horseback Riding, Student Patrol PRIVILEGED FEW m early dismissal is a privelege that } many students look forward to re- ceiving in their senior year. It gives them another opportunity to tell the world, ““Hey, I’m a senior!’ because they leave school an hour before the underclassmen. Early dismissal was originally designed to give seniors an opportunity to work after school. Most of them do use this time for after school employment but some do not. Those seniors who don’t work use the time to go to the library and study, or to go home, or to go to McDonald’s, or else to ‘hang out’ in front of Classical. The last is a bad idea, since seniors caught loitering on school grounds after fifth period could lose their early dismissal privelege. But not all seniors have early dismissal. Those involved in Blue White, Recorder and Student Patrol have elected to give it up for the school’s benefit, so sixth period finds them still busy in school while their friends are out and on their way. Senior athletes, although having early dis- missal, cannot take full advantage of it be- cause they may have practices and meets which take place after school. Their only ERIC P.

However a senior uses his early dismissal, it can be assured that it is much appreciated and enjoyed. It sets the senior apart from the underclassmen, and adds even more prestige to the title “‘Senior’’. 1.

The activities she spoke of ranged from Class Day and carna- tion sales to the banquet and the prom, and her objective was share by all her officers. The officers spent every Tuesday home- room period in meetings, discussing plans for raising money and forming committees to decide how best to spend it. The money went to the Christmas dance, the banquet, and the prom. These committees were re- sponsible for every aspect of each particular function. In addition to listening to various bands to choose the best for our money, they planned refreshments, booked halls, and hired security personnel. They arranged the advertising, sold tickets, and then made sure that everything ran smoothly on the night of the function. This process was very long and involved, requiring dedication and energy from its planners. Susan Allen, who worked her up from treasurer in tenth grade to vice-president in eleventh grade and finally to her highest position as president in twelfth grade, found job very “‘exciting and fulfilling.” She served as chairperson of the banquet committee. Chairperson of the prom committee was senior vice-president Walter Randell, and re- presentive Tricia Ribeiro worked as chair- person of the Christmas dance. The other officers - secretary Beth Con- ney, treasurer Sherri Childs, member-at- large Laura Dusza, and representatives Mary Cawley, Yvette Shaver, Nancy Smith, and James Soja also worked with Sue and Walter, raising money and coordinating functions. The class of ’80 should be grateful to all of the officers for their great efforts. Sue Allen’s objective of involvement and enjoy- ment was certainly reached reached, bring- ing us all a memorable senior year. 1.

They are the senior advisors: Mr. Craig Dinnie, Miss Tere- sa Regina, Miss Velma Jordan and Mr. Stan- ley Stolarz. Senior advisors have many responsibilities which are both academ ically and socially ori- ented. Even with their other obligations, they unselfishly devote many hours of ser- vice to the senior class. “My role was merely supportive,” said Mr. Dinnie, chief advisor for the class of 1980. Miss Jordan, advisor to the senior prom, expressed that same feeling when she said, ‘‘the class of 1980 has been marvelous to work with.” Mr. Stolarz, advisor to the banquet com- mittee, spent a busy year planning and su- pervising to help make this year’s banquet the best possible. Even though the advisors contributed greatly to the success of the activities of the senior class, they were quick to point out that the students contributions counted more in the long run. These contributions 40 SENIORS LAURA DUSZA 102 Clydesdale Lane Bloodbank, Cheerleading, Jr. Sr. Prom Comm., Stu. Gov't. benefitted not only Classical, but, more im- portantly, they benefitted the students. Miss Regina, who is in charge of general fundraising, stated that “‘the members of the class of 1980 have returned the gifts of learning in their enthusiasm and creativity concerning school activities and programs.” Mr. Dinnie added to this by referring to the help the students gave to themselves, “their leadership qualities and their ability to act so maturely on their own was quite impres- - sive. Senior advisors were very important be- cause of all the different and numerous ac- tivities the senior class was involved in. The senior prom, the senior banquet and the Christmas dance involved much planning and cooperation between students and facul- ty. But the basic reason senior advisors are important is because of the guidance they provide. Miss Jordan gave the following advice to this years’ graduating seniors, “Students should strive for success in achieving goals and pursuing careers. To build soundly you must work hard and think positively.” 1. Mr. Stanley Stolarz; 2. Miss Velma Jordan; 3. Miss Teresa Regina; 4: Mr. Craig Dinnie.

Since most seniors have their home- rooms in the annex, they have to put up with much more than the average underclass- man, who may have only one or two classes there. Having your homeroom in the annex means having your locker there, too. Be- cause of limited time between classes, most seniors cannot go to their lockers whenever they want. Instead, they have to lug around extra books or share a locker with someone in the main building. Many get their own lockers in the main building, but some do go to their annex lockers when they want and use this as an excuse to be late for a class. The weather plays a great role in deter- mining a senior’s disposition to this situation. When it is nice out, they do not complain, since what better way is there to break up the monotony of school than a walk to the annex on a warm sunny day? In cooler fall weather the walk is still enjoyable, except for gusty winds. In the winter, it is a different story. Students must battle snow, sleet, hail, and freezing rain in subzero temperatures, LOREN HUTNER 74 Park Dr. RICHARD IRELAND N.H.S., Recorder, Stu. 12 Stuyvesant St. Gov’t., Tennis ANTHONY JANAKAS JEFFREY 850 Sumner Ave. JARAMILLO Blue White Bus. 198 Pineacre St. and these conditions tend to bring about negative connotations of what the “annex walk” means. Rainy days are probably the worst of all. Quite often during the school year, students risk drowning before reaching their destination. They end up in a ““drowned rat”’ state and are uncomfortable for the rest of the day. An umbrella, hood, and waterproof shoes are a must especially for seniors, since seniors do the most walk- ing to and from the annex. Crossing the street is an experience, expe- cially when there is no policeman to help. It is a sight to see students leap in front of moving cars, causing angry drivers to slam on the breakes to avoid hitting them. When the crossing guard is there, the operation runs smoothly, although drivers do become impatient waiting for several minutes in a line of cars that sometimes reaches to Maple Street. The one thing seniors do get is the satis- faction of having the annex all to themselves each morning and during homeroom per- iods. It is their own special place, and a strange feeling often overcomes underclass- men who have been there at these times. They feel inferior and out of place being an intruder in senior territory. SENIORS 45 SPACED OUT ow many people would think of writ- SHE ing about the television show, Space: 1999? Not many! But one who did just happens to be a senior at Classi- cal. His name is Chris Landry. Chris has always been interested in sci- ence fiction, especially the T.V. show, Space: 1999, of which he has seen every episode. This interest caused Chris to start writing a newsletter in December, 1976, in order to get in touch with other people who shared his interest. Chris advertised his newsletter, called Alpha Log, in magazines, and he now sends it to people in over half of the fifty states, as well as to people in Eng- land, Australia, Japan, and several Europe- an countries. The Alpha Log is published every two months, and Chris has sent out seventeen issues so far. But Chris was not satisfied to just write newsletters. In the summer of 1978, he de- cided to take all of the information he had about Space: 1999 and put it in a book. That book, called The Alpha Book, pub- lished in October, 1979, is presently in its second printing, and is going into its third. Chris recently edited a collection of short stories dealing with science fiction, some of which were written by friends of his, others by people who receive his newsletter, and still others by Chris himself. However, Chris does not want to write science fiction as a career. He is also inter- ested in film production. This interest prompted Chris to petition to kee p the film course, taught by Miss Regina, from being dropped from the senior’s English curricu- lum. Chris also helped to organize the Video- tape Club, and is one of the club’s most active members. He hopes to combine his interest in film production and science fiction into a career of creating and filming special effects, like those in Star Wars and Star Trek. Maybe being “‘spaced out’’ is not so bad after all. DENISE JOHNSON 328 Bay St. Chorus, Drill Team, Student Patrol, P.E.L.T.

Key chains, Perma-Posters, snack mats, senior hats, baked stuff, flowers, tee-shirts, candy, and coffee ’n donuts are being sold A little something for everyone. Why? To raise money for the class of ’80, of course. And raise money we do. Over $1000 will be raised this year from selling the items listed above. Of these, the coffee and donuts found in the Coffee Shop attract the most buyers. Although the money raised in the shop between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m. every day wasn't at first what was hoped for, (due to initial problems of poor-quality donuts and buying too many) the problems were eventu- ally worked out. In December alone the Cof- fee Shop netted $128 for the class, which spurred on hopes of opening another shop in the annex. The success of this and all other fundrais- ing activities was due to two factors. First, the great organizing and selling ability of our elected senior class officers; the senior fun- draising committee; and a few of the offi- DINO PANETTA 33 Sherwood Rd. 13 Beech St. Chorus, Madrigal cers’ and committee members’ wonderful friends who just wanted to get involved. Sec- ond, of course, was the class of ’80 itself, since how much money could the class make if no one bought anything? Luckily, we all support our class and buy the items offered. Where, you may ask, does all this money go once it’s raised? No, the class officers don’t use it to finance a mad spree in Mexi- co-they diligently put it aside and save it for all of us. It is then used to reduce the price of Banquet, Picnic, and Prom tickets by offset- ting the costs involved in renting bands, halls, etc. So, knowing all this, look back and be proud-of the eight boxes of M M’s you ate, the flower you gave that girl in your Psych class, or the senior hat you’re wearing. You parted with some hard-earned green stuff, but it all came back to you in the end. 1. Diana Chrisanthopoulos says to herself, “‘Ha, ha!

This was the fifth year that Stu- dent Government joined forces with Red Cross to collect the very badly needed blood. This year, as in previous years, the same requirements had to be met by the donors before they were qualified to give blood. One had to be 17 years old or older, weigh at least 110 pounds, never had mononucleo- sis, and not be taking any medication on the Bloodbank date. This year’s bloodbank was held on No- vember 29th, which was about a month later than in previous years. This way, more stu- dents would have turned 17 by then, which would, hopefully, bring in more donations. However, despite the later date, donations were still kept low because the constant change of weather brought many colds to the prospective blood donors. This was a real problem as any prospective donor who was sick could not give blood. Although less blood was collected than expected, the bloodbank was extremely suc- cessful. The 78 pints of blood collected benefited at least 180 people. Senior class president Susan Allen partici- pated in the blood drive for her second year in a row. Last year, as a junior, she was co- chairman and this year she was senior co- chairman. Marge Bondioli, a junior, filled Sue’s former post as co-chairman, while Miss Weissbrod once again gave generously of her own time and effort as advisor to the program. Classical is proud to be part of a program which takes part in such a vital, lifesaving program as giving blood. 1. ‘“‘Oh God, I think they took too much!”’, says David Demarinis of laughing Tricia Ribeiro. 2.

The result is known as slang, and it is used a lot these days, especially by young people, since it often originates in the classroom. This causes a communication gap, because many adults are not familiar with the latest phrases and their sometimes hidden mean- ing. For instance, most kids today call their parents ‘“‘mom and dad’’, but some still use my old lady and my old man instead. These latter two can also mean a girlfriend and boyfriend, respectively. A beautiful girl is a doll, a babe, or a fox. A great figure means she’s nice. Girls of uncertain morals are slea- zy or loose. Guys are cute, adorable, gor- geous dolls, or, best of all, hunks. On the weekends guys and gals just love to party. If you come in an hour late, and your parents notice your strange behavior and look, you are snagged. They will prob- ably throw a fitor blow up, and may ground you for a month or even take your wheels away. Rarely do you hear teenagers greeting one another with, ““Hello, how do you do?” 56 SENIORS KAREN REILLY 14 Pasco Rd.

Soccer, Softball Instead, they say, “Hi, how ya doin’?’’, “how’s it goin’?, or “what’s up?” A typical answer could be, “‘pretty good,” “O.K.,’’ or “nothin ’ much.” But since these are ques- tions not meant to be answered, a response of “Hi,” followed by one of the greetings would be fine. At the end of a converstion you still hear “Bye,” but “see you Jater,”’ and “Take it easy,’’are much more current. When it comes to adjectives, groovy and wicked are out. Things you like, you de- scribe as cool, excellent, great, decent, tough, wierd, and bad. Putting pretty before these will emphasize your point. If some- thing is really funny, ‘‘t’s a riot,’’ hilarious, and makes you crack up. Things you detest, rot, stink, or are gay, but more often require phrases not suited for print. The word gayis no longer used to mean bright and cheery. It now refers to homosexuality or abnormality and is also quite effective as an insult. A rip-off is when you pay four bucks to see a flick that absolutely stinks, but ripped- off means stolen or swiped. These words are commonly used now, but take a look back at this in a few years. Maybe these words will mean nothing to your children, since slang is always changing, 1. Weekends were made for Moosehead Beer. 2.

FAMILY STYLE ost parents do not know what goes } on in Classical every day. Many can- J not understand what it means to have a homeroom in the Annex, a first peri- od class on the third floor, and then a second period class back in the Annex. Some simply will never believe that your only Psych homework really is just to do something that you have never done before. But there are three seniors- Kathy Keough, Nancy Smith, and Sharon Yesu-whose parents do under- stand, because their parents work in Classi- cal. Kathy Keough’s father, Mr. Robert Keough, teaches math. Kathy loved having her father at Classical. “It was great!’’ she said. “If I ever needed extra money, | just went to see my dad.” Besides getting mon- ey, Kathy benifitted in two other ways: she got a cozy ride to and from school every day; and, because Mr. Keough teaches math, she had someone available at all times to help her with her math homework. Nancy Smith’s parents both wor k at Clas- NANCY SMITH sical. Her father, Mr. Robert Smith, teaches biology and physiology and her mother, Mrs. Cathlene Smith, is a clerk in the counselor’s office. Like Kathy, Nancy loved having her parents in the same building. She, too, some- times borrowed money from her parents, and said, “‘If I had a lot of books, I could give them to my parents to bring to or from school.”’ Sharon Yesu’s father, Mr. Neil Yesu, is acting principal this year. Sharon could find no disadvantage in having her father so close at hand, and said, ‘‘Because my dad worked here, he knew what it was like here.” Kathy, Nancy, and Sharon all found it a great advantage to have parents in Classical. Rides, money, and someone to help with your books were always available, things the rest of the class had to do without. Well, this proves parents are good for something! 1.

SENIORS 61 JEANETTE TOWER RUSSELL URSPRUNG class couple: PICK AND CHOOSE n the past few years, there has been a lot of controversy over the senior ballot. Many people have felt that the ballot was biased and did not represent the views of the majority of seniors. Although the ballot committee always tries their best, it is almost impossible for them to get a ballot totally representative of the views of the whole senior class. Because of this, the Blue White staff decided to put a blank ballot in the yearbook. This way you can have your own personal ballot.

Those of us planning on college know where we’re going, and the hassle of applica- tions, transcripts, and recommendations is just a dark, dimming memory. Others have found the job they wanted, and the rest are waiting for the day to come when they leave for boot camp, wondering what new experiences that will bring. Meanwhile, we can look back on the past year. Early dismissal, the senior prom, our hard-to-miss senior hats — surely every one of us has a good memory to keep here or there, and time will mellow out the bad ones for us. Time is one thing we certainly do have a log of! Not only is it the end of school days, it’s the beginning of a life of our own, full of the decisions we were never considered quite old enough to make. Soon many of us will move out of the house, start a family or leave Springfield for a new location. How will we react? What will we do with all this new responsibility? Oh, well, if you’re a bit scared or nervous, take heart. We’re young enough to recover if we make one mistake or wrong choice (or a whole lot of little ones!), so if you want to switch jobs, colleges or whatever, you can do it. Be brave! Remember, the seventies are dead and gone, but we have a whole shiny new decade ahead of us. So leave Classical with fond memories and blaze your own trail into the eighties. SENIORS 65 66 SENIORS ACTIVITIES or the trumpet player or the sing- er, the writer or the actor, there was a place in the world of Classi- cal’s extra-curricular activities in this 1979-80 school year. Whatever a stu- dent’s interests and abilities, Classical tried hard to accomodate them. Though learning was supposedly the primary purpose for students to attend school, it is doubtful that many would have been able to tolerate the steady diet of exams, projects, and research papers, without some respite. To make the stu- dents’ lives a little more pleasant, Classi- cal continued to provide many different kinds of activities that students could choose from. Among the different kinds of activities that students could get in- volved in were clubs which they could simply join, while others were organiza- tions which required try-outs, such as Blue and White, and one, the National 68 ACTIVITIES Honor Society, selected students on the basis of high academic standing. As well as organizations that students could be- come members of, Classical provided useful services that all students could take advantage of, such as the School Store and the Coffee Shop. For students with ‘‘disco-fever’”’, there were Student- Government sponsored dances, including the Christmas Dance, that provided the opportunity for them to “boogie the night away’. The types of activities were as varied as the students themselves. For the mathematician, the linguist, the debater or the chess player, Classical pre- sented the option of getting involved or not. For those who chose to involve themselves in the hub-bub of Classical’s extra-curricular activities, the following pages hopefully capture the enthusiasm and the accomplishments of the past school year. f fi Fi 2 Cr 0s a’ 1.

ACTIVITIES 69 70 FOREIGN EXCHANGE tudents interested in their foreign neighbor expressed that interest by joining one of Classical’s edu- cational clubs, the Foreign Language Club. The club, with Mrs. Maria Mazzei serving as faculty advisor, was made up of students from all grades who ex- pressed an interest in the cultural back- grounds of people from different coun- tries. The club held meetings after school once every two weeks. During these meetings, plans were discussed for fun- draising activities such as bake sales, car washes, and a movie held in February. The funds raised paid for the annual club- ACTIVITIES sponsored International Weekend held in early spring. During this fun-filled week- end, members of the club had the oppor- tunity to meet students from other coun- tries and gain an insight into their customs and cultures. Also during this weekend, the students attended dances and din- ners. Members of the club joined because of an interest in the cultures of other peo- ple, but also for the excitement of en- countering new and different exper- iences. Since it was not necessary to speak a foreign language to join the club, the only requirement for membership was interest, energy, and enthusiasm. 1. “Come on, do you really expect me to believe that?” says Mrs. Mazzei. 2.

Entertain- ment consists of getting a hold of and maintaining an audience’s at- tention while, at the same time, amusing and relaxing them. Classical’s ’79-’80 Drama Club, or “Classical Stage’’ as it was more properly called, whose job was to entertain, did a marvelous job by per- forming outstandingly and captivating a variety of audiences. From the first meeting on September eighteen, the club met every Tuesday and the Drama Club turned out a first rate production of “The Apollo of Bel- lac”. They then entered this play in the Area 1 Act Competition in March with high hopes of recognition. Two actors won awards as best actress and best sup- porting actor. In May, the Drama Club hoped to have their full length play pro- duction of Thorton Wilder’s Our Town THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT completed which still needed much re- hearsal and hard work by spring. A Hal- loween play produced and directed by April Caulton was also performed for 4th graders at Liberty School. Miss Keenan, head supervisor, guided the group during many rehearsals in the auditorium and helped to exercise acting skills during meetings. A great number of successful workshops were held with area junior high schools to exchange dramatic criticisms and to work on perfecting act- ing abilities. The fact that Classical’s audi- torium has inadequate acting facilities presented a problem, but the club man- aged to overcome this obstacle. This year’s President-April Caulton, Vice President-Beth Allen, Secretary-Michelle Ducey, and Treasurer-Gail Duncan, per- formed their duties well and had a very successful year. ACTIVITIES 71 se i ae A Bit Of Bach mid the drone of the normal school day, the classic sounds of Bach and Beethoven filled the corridor outside of B-17. Within the room, Classical’s orchestra was hard at work preparing for a performance. The string section strived diligently for a cor- rect entrance to an adagio, while the wind and percussion sections practiced an ac- companiment. The Classical Orchestra, under the di- rection of Mr. John Christie, practiced every sixth period, as well as homeroom 72 ACTIVITIES periods, to prepare for concerts. This year, as in the past, the orchestra was responsible for filling the auditorium with the sounds of traditional Christmas carols during the annual Christmas con- cert. Beside this performance, they spent the remainder of the year rehearsing for the Spring Concert, a year-end event which climaxed months of hard work. Thanks to the dedication of the many members of the Classical Orchestra, Clas- sical once again was alive with the sounds of music! - 1.

Under the guidance of Mr. Craig Dinnie, students had the opportunity to learn, understand and play that brain-stimulating game of chess. On selected days, after school in room 206, the Chess Club members engaged in playoffs with each other. Locked in mor- tal combat, they pondered over their chessboards until five of the best players Pawns Of Classical were chosen to form the Classical Chess Team. The team then competed in the Western Mass. Pl ayoffs, an annual event, for the championship title. In the last three years, the team had been in the top four of the playoffs, and looked forward to an outstanding season this year as well. Not only did this organization provide Classical with an interesting and challeng- ing activity, but also provided an alterna- tive form of enjoyment, insuring the wide variety of extra-curricular options that Classical is known for. 1.

The magic hand of Mr. Dinnie moves Wendy Perrotta’s chesspieces ACTIVITIES 73 Algebraic Olympics tudents who were able to per- form terrific feats in sports were called athletes, but students who were whizzes at solving algebraic and ge- ometric problems were called Mathletes. Mrs. Bale, supervisor of this club, gave students with an interest in math an op- portunity to work with different kinds of math problems and equations. Some Mathletes demonstrated their solutions to problems while others merely gained a better understanding of them. Every Thursday during homeroom pe- riod, the Mathletes met in room 114 fora 74 ACTIVITIES “work out”’ with numbers, until six of the best math students were chosen to form a team that competed with teams from oth- er area high schools. When they traveled, they had a chance to meet other students who shared their interests. They also had the opportunity to learn from some of these students, who had practiced math for quite a few years. Like the Chess Club, Mathletes pro- vided a very interesting and mind chal- lenging pastime for students who were willing to work at what they found enjoy- able. 1.

Phil Shepardson, the show’s host, explains one of the categories to the teams. They Met Their Match w=) final score in any game can be 41 deceptive, for it doesn’t always J provide an accurate representa- tion of what went on. Such was the case when Classical’s ‘‘As Schools Match Wits” team met St. Joseph’s of Agawam in their first match this year. Though the final score read 195-135 in St. Joseph’s favor, Classical had fought hard until the end. Despite Classical’s efforts, however, St. Joseph’s proved too much for them to handle. To prepare for the match, team mem- bers had attended practices every Wednesday after school. Though anyone was free to attend the practices, only four people were selected by advisor Mr. Le- Clair for the final team. These team mem- bers-Tom O’Connor, Nancy Smith, Ger- ald O’Connor, and Brian LeMoine- used the practice time to quiz each other on a variety of subjects. Though their preparations did not lead the team to a victory, members consid- ered the experience invaluable. After all, not only did they learn a lot from it, but they also got to make their television de- buts! ACTIVITIES 75 76 High Notes here will be a rehearsal for all choruses, choir, and Madrigal in the auditorium, homeroom peri- od Tuesday and Thursday. All members must attend. How often was this announcement read to homerooms? After a while, it seemed as if students were reciting it with their homeroom teachers! The Classical choir, a mixture of male and female voices, met four times a week as a scheduled class, and also homeroom periods. Students devoted many hours to practicing their music and perfecting their performance. Throughout the school year, the choir presented their musical talents at many places. They put on a Christmas concert, a spring concert, and also played an important role in the graduation ceremony. The chorus, on the other hand, met twice a week and during homeroom per- iods. It was separated into two different groups, a Boys’ Chorus and a Girls’ Cho- rus. Since no audition was necessary to ACTIVITIES , become a member, anyone was welcome to join. Another singing group at Classical was Madrigal. Members of Madrigal were re- quired to meet four times a week and occasionally during homeroom periods where they were pushed to work even harder by a demanding Mr. Robbins. Madrigal is a very select group, and like the choir, it requires an audition. Twenty seniors and juniors made up Madrigal. Included in their many performances this year were appearances at the Springfield Chamber of Commerce and at the Ho- lyoke Mall. In addition, they put on a formal concert in June. The members of these three choral groups listened to lengthy announce- ments in the mornings, and spent many periods in the auditorium watching Mr. Robbins wave his arms. But, in the end, it was worth it for each student’s personal satisfaction, and for the enjoyment of their audiences. ae RO 1. April Caulton and Diane Fountain pitch a high note. 2.

Dressed in black uniforms with blue ruf- fled shirts and black bow ties, the 1979- 80 Classical High School Stage Band presented a classy image. The Stage Band, assembled by Mr. Christie, was composed of musicians of the highest caliber. Band members prac- ACTIVITIES ticed after school and du ring homeroom periods to perfect their performances. Donning their stylish attire, the band played their jazz and rock selections at several concerts this year. Some members were invited by Mr. Christie to join, while others auditioned for their positions in the band. All of the members, however, had one thing in com- mon: They were talented musicians dedi- cated to giving high-quality perfor- mances. 1. Danny Gorman, blow it out your ear! 2. There must be an easier way to get your picture taken. 3. The “lively” Stage Band belts out a tune. 4. “I wish I could read this music.” 5.

Classical’s Afro Am members were more willing to get involved and showed great- er participation in the cultural education of the group than ever before. Picking up - cultural lessons in school, working with members, as well as outside of school, during community fund raisers, Classi- cal’s Afro Am members proved that his- tory can be very exciting. Among the club’s many fund-raising successes, the annual community Christ- mas party for neighborhood children was again at the top of the list. Bake sales and carnation sales also helped to raise mon- y to donate to the Afro American Schol- Soul Making History arship fund. Having held a series of cof- fee hours for discussion of relevant is- sues, the club progressed well and hon- ored, with great effort, such prominent moments in black history as Black History Week and Martin Luther King Day with great presentations. Mr. Barnes, advisor of the club, helped a great deal in the organization of activi- ties by understanding and relating to the students. This year’s officers, President, Shelisa Green; Vice President, Delores Gregory; Secretary, Joy Spencer, Trea- surer, Ludley Howard: and Member at Large, Lorna Burt: agreed that the club’s overall active participation was responsi- ble for the club’s success. ACTIVITIES 79 serpent reencrcremesteteneeannegeemeceeonrarteon 4 .— fie ee 4 oe i ee Point, Counterpoint hat would this world be like if everyone agreed on everything and nobody voiced a di fferent opinion? No doubt it would be very dull. And though Classical High School is hard- ly the world, the same principle applies here. Classical would be a pretty boring place if everyone shared the same views. Fortunately, Classical High students not only have varied opinions, but they are given the opportunity to voice those opin- ions by joining an organization known as the Senate. By joining the Senate, which is among the oldest organizations in the school, stu- dents could take part in the meetings held every Tuesday after school in Rm. A-7. At these meetings, this year’s Senate members devised a bill concerning the potential of synthetic fuel production, which they presented at the 40th Annual 80 ACTIVITIES A.I.C. Model Congress in January. Mem- bers of the Senate worked with their advi- sor, Mr. Henry Brady, to assemble the facts they used to back up their position. A great deal of their time was devoted to research, to insure that they were thor- oughly familiar with their subject and could debate it skillfully. In May, the an- nual Senate Tablet Debate was held, at which the best debater in the Senate was selected by a panel of judges. Whether opinions were expressed be- fore a panel of judges or informally among friends, Classical students voiced their opinions. Yes, Classical would sure- ly be a dull place if its students didn’t have differing opinions, and a desire to express them. After all, if everyone agreed on everything, the Senate would have nothing to debate about. eae — “4 ee EROS NIE Rae oe 1.

Shout It Out Loud! creaming their lungs out at a soc- cer, football or hockey game may not have been the most relaxing way to spend spare time, but every Classi- cal cheerleader would agree that it was the most exciting. From the beginning, when a panel of judges, which consisted of faculty as well as advanced college cheerleaders, selected them as the chosen few, the Varsity cheer- leaders repeatedly showed great talent and pride in their school. The Varsity cheer- leaders worked hard to represent their school with the pride that it so deserved. Having practiced every homeroom period and after school to get that jump just right, they gave a new meaning to the word dedi- cation. Determined? These girls worked on cheers for weeks to get them down pat. Devoted? These girls gave up study halls, as well as jobs, to participate in practices which made it possible to represent their school at all games. Though the team lacked a full-time coach, Captain Donna Curpenski and Co-Captain Peggy Del- Tergo, helped fill the gap by leading the group of thirteen. The J.V. cheerleaders, advised by Mrs. Briotta, devoted much time and effort to lifting spirits and succeeded. All in all, the cheerleaders had a terrific year, due to hard work and high spirits. What better way could there have been to show their pride and spirit, other than shouting it out? 1. “What do you mean my skirt flew up?!” says Chris Brown. 2.

The ’79-’80 Classical Ma- jorettes demonstrated the success of such hard work. Marching and twirling at the same time at football games and parades was no easy task. To be able to execute a twirl successfully is effort enough, but to do it while marching and at the same time as several others is enough to show the dedication and pride these girls put into their unique activity. Faced with music to march and perform to, usually on short notice, the majorettes always turned in a fine showing for spectators during each halftime. Practicing every homeroom pe- riod, the girls put a great deal of effort into their twirling in order to please their audience. Shouts and cheers of recogni- tion always followed their performance. Rarely falling out of step or dropping a baton, the girls always maintained a cheery smile. Fact: Under the leadership of captain Lori Moriarty, the girls felt they had a more than successful year stirring up pride and spirit to a 4.0 average, Classi- cal’s highest achievement. 1.

The Drill Team could have been described as a group of students who, when dressed in flashy blue and white military uniforms complete with gloves, boots and hats, became a team who mixed marching with dancing. Each one of their manuevers had its own special and basic steps and was performed while the team clapped their hands and stomped their feet to keep the beat. Occasionally, the Drill Team had the honor to march in various parades here in Keeping In Step Springfield. Most often, though, they traveled to Classical’s numerous sports events to perform. They also showed their talents while they drilled on stage during selected assemblies in the audito- rium. Captains Denise Johnson and Celeste Scott played a major role in the team as they kept everybody in their proper or- der and ranks. Perfection was the main element which had made Classical’s Drill Team the best in the past, present and no doubt the future. ACTIVITIES News Update t any one of the cold and windy football games, a member of the z ¥ Recorder could have been found huddled in a corner, busily jotting down notes for one of the many Recorder arti- cles. This member, along with many other members, kept the Classical faculty and students up to date about school happen- ings and events. The Recorder members met sixth period each day in room A-7. These members, with Mr. Brady as their advisor, Loren Hutner as Editor-in-Chief, and Joy Guziec as Managing and Editorial Editor, had the important job of writing the Classical news- 84 ACTIVITIES paper. The newspaper not only informed the students on relevant issues and school activities, but it also contained some local news. Students were selected for the Recorder as either juniors or seniors. They were se- lected according to their ability and creativ- ity in writing. As members, they met sixth periods where work was done on articles, layouts, and set-ups. Members of the Recorder not only gained journalistic qualities, but they also had the opportunity to express their tal- ents in writing. ie 2 4 | a ll, 1.

ACTIVITIES Unique Ideas nyone passing room 126 during D period on Tuesday, must have wondered why there was such a ruckus coming from what was usually qui- et study. If a closer look was taken, a passerby would have seen that this was no normal study hall. Seated in this room were the officers and representatives of Classical’s four classes, conducting their weekly Student Government meeting. The Student Government was certainly one of Classical’s most unique organiza- tions. Unlike most other area high schools, where class officers did work solely for the benefit of their own class, the Student Government provided a col- laberation between the Freshman, Sopho- more, Junior and Senior classes. Togeth- er, the members of Student Government worked on projects and served on com- mittees that dealt with service to Classical and the community. A few of the major projects that Stu- dent Government dealt with during the school year were: a successful S.T. drive that was promoted by sales rallies for each class, a commitee to look into im- proving the conditions of Classicals’ front lawn and a scholarship fund for past and present members of Student Govern- ment. In the way of community service, Student Government contributed by sponsoring a blood bank and a Salvation Army canned food drive. President Yvette Shaever conducted the meetings in a parlamentarian manner, with the help of advisor Miss Weissbrod. The formality of the meetings added to the effectiveness of Student Government and allowed for more to be accom- plished. 1.

Kieth Ratte, dana Lamos, David Quirk,Maueen O’Shea x here did Classical’s students go WE on nippy winter mornings, when the sub-zero temperatures got to be too much? To the small cafeteria, of course, where they could warm up their bones and palates at the Classical Coffee Shop. Every morning, beginning in Novem- ber, Classical’s students could enjoy a hot cup of coffee, cocoa, or a carton of milk and have their choice of a variety of don- uts, at Classicals’ Coffee Shop. Run by the Senior Class, as one of its tastier fund raising events, the Coffee Shop was open at 7:30 each morning, to give students a chance to escape the cold and grab a bite to eat at the same time. It also provided classmates with a chance to catch up on the latest scoop or eat the L Good To The Last Drop breakfast they missed at home. Not only was it a benefit to students in this way, the Coffee Shop was also a benefit to the Senior Class, for its profits became part of the class treasury. The money raised was used to sponser class activities like the Prom, Banquet, and Class Picnic. Members of the Senior Class who wished to work at the Coffee Shop signed up in the spring of their Junior year, and were placed in Miss Weissbrods’ home- room, 126, to serve during their Senior Year. When they weren’t doling out donuts and coffee, Coffee Shop workers were often seen catching up on a little bit of the gossip themselves. ACTIVITIES 87 Something Special nly the class of 80 could have han- dled the problems encountered in 45 dealing with their Junior Prom. Two cancellations by hotels where the Prom was to be held, as well as difficulty in finding a band, led many unhappy class members to fear that there wouldn’t be a Prom. Hard work on the part of some devoted Prom Committee members, and help from Class Advisor Mr. Craig Dinnie, made the Prom a reality, however. The semi-formal affair was held at the 88 ACTIVITIES Fairfield Inn in Chicopee on May twenty- sixth, and music, provided by Hot Line, gave prom-goers an opportunity to dance to a variety of beats. The fact that it was a semi-formal event gave juniors the chance to dress up and show their style.

These students, members of the Blue and White Business staff, were anxious to get to their homeroom and start their work. Upon selection for Blue and White Business, these students were placed in Miss Freedman’s homeroom and devoted many homeroom periods to obtaining ads for the yearbook. The purchase of these ads by merchants and other sponsors benefited the students of Classical since it ACTIVITIES Rolling In The Green reduced the price of the Yearbook. As well as obtaining ads for the year- book, the Blue and White Business staff had the responsibility of taking orders from students wishing to buy the year- book and later in the school year, they delivered them. These members of the Business staff were people interested in advertising and selling. Along with learning the many techniques of advertising and selling, these students contributed greatly to the production of the yearbook. 1.

The people who carted the projectors and films were all members of the A.V.A. staff in homeroom 205. Mr. Allen Peck, supervisor of this audio-visual service, took some selected volunteers and taught them some technical know- how used for setting up projectors, fixing electrical devices and handling inventory Movie Madness sheets. In addition to bringing equipment to teachers and supervising movies in the auditorium, the A.V.A. staff was also re- sponsible for taking S.T. pictures, which was slightly difficult because some stu- dents thought they were having a screen test and stayed in front of the camera. The A.V.A. staff was very busy this year and, as always, contributed their best efforts in order to aid the silver screen of Classical. ACTIVITIES 91 The Force he person who sat in front of the girl’s room collecting passes ... the kid who walked back and forth in the hall with a stern expression ... the students behind the counter in the office who stamped and signed passes ... who were these people? They were members of Student Patrol. Under the guidance of Mrs. Danton and Mr. Annino they strived to keep the school secure, safe and free from disturbances. When asked why he joined, one patrol member replied, “‘It is an honor to have such authority.” The Student Patrol consisted of two spe- 92 ACTIVITIES cial homerooms containing responsible and dependable volunteers from grades 10 through 12. Captain Theresa Camerlin and Lieutenant Chris Landry of 119 were al- ways on the ball as were Captain Michael Thomas and Lieutenant Jeff Knybel of 124. Together, with the rest of the patrol, they raised money for the Toy for Joy Fund in December. This year, an honored patrol representa- tive had the opportunity to be on the Stu- dent Government. With the top two organi- zations of the school working together as one, Classical had a well organized year. 1. Mike Perrone and Chris Landry guard auditorium doors during an assembly. 2.

A student gives her pass to Patti Menard. Get It Write is head bent over his desk in su- preme concentration, a student busily struggled with the proper wording. Every word was of the utmost importance, since the student was seeking to get his poem published by Scribe, Classi- cal’s literary magazine. It was not simply a matter of submitting his work; it would also have to meet the standards set by the dis- criminating Scribe staff members. If it passed their inspection, the work would then be published. And, if it were pub- lished, thought the student eagerly, his name would be displayed in every copy of Scribe sold-instant fame! Yes, Scribe this year, as in years past, provided talented students with a little bit of recognition, as well as the opportunity to feel proud at having their poems, short stories, artwork, or photographs pub- lished. Its main purpose, however, was to give budding Classical writers a chance to share their work with others. Scribe was put together by Mrs. Bogan’s 12W(Creative Writing) class, which met fourth periods. 12W students not only se- lected the material used in Scribe, but they also raised the money to cover the costs of publishing the magazine. With the hard work of Co-editors, Pat McAuley and Mary Cawley, and the other Scribe staff members, Classical once again provided its students with a showcase for their literary talents. 1.

ACTIVITIES 93 94 n an average day, Room 206 50: looked quite a bit like a circus ina school room. Groups of students huddled around photographs, discussing their content, while other students were busily typing away, often removing their papers, wadding them up in a ball and tossing them angrily into the basket. Crouching nervously in the corner, a be- wildered photographer was being accost- ed by a group of screaming students, tell- ing him to report to a dozen different places at the same time. What was the cause for mass hysteria in the usually calm atmosphere of Classi- cal High? A deadline that had to be met by the staff members of Classical’s award- winning yearbook, Blue and White. Staff members, who were chosen on the basis of their academic performance and all ACTIVITIES It’s Done-Let’s Party! around character, as well as an essay written in the spring of their sophomore or junior year, worked hard to meet the publisher’s deadlines. Before completed pages could be submitted to the publish- er, articles had to be written and checked by Editor-in Chief Jennifer Hartfield and faculty advisor Mr. Craig Dinnie. There were also pictures to be taken and cropped, and their position on lay-outs determined. Deadlines were often trying, with misplaced pictures and other prob- lems often straining nerves, but the staff of Blue and White always managed to come through. When each deadline had been success- fully met, staff members could be seen doing something else they were known for — Partying!

The Classical Band — of course! Even through the coldest of Bulldog games, the Band could be found cheering their team on. The band of approximately eighty five members marched in many parades. Any Classical student or faculty member would be proud of the performances the band gave at the United Way Parade, a parade at the Big E, the Columbus Day Parade, and the Saint Patrick’s Day Parade. Anyone could join the band, but seats ACTIVITIES were determined by auditions. Audition pieces were chosen by band director, Mr. John Christie. At auditions a bond started to form among band members. This special friendship grew stronger throughout the year. Together, they performed at pa- rades, games, and concerts, including the Spring Concert and a concert at Bay State West for “‘Music in Our Schools Week’’. Under the guidance of Mr. Christie and the leadership of president Anton Zama- chaj, the band spent fourth periods practic- ing in room B-17. This practicing led to one of the finest bands in Classical’s history. 1. Play that tune, Arlene Crawford. 2. If you can read this, you could be in the band! 3.

Sponsored by the Senior Class, this annual dance is held each year on the weekend prior to Christmas. This year’s dance was held Saturday, December 22, at the Fairfield Inn, in Chicopee Falls. The fun and unique aspect of the Christ- mas Dance, is that although not official, the Christmas Dance is traditionally a “girl ask guy”’ affair. This aspect has always provided a lot of juice on the grapevine, and a lot of anxious guys, wondering who would ask them to be their date. Many lucky ladies asked guys who were so grateful for their invitations, that they took their dates to some of the area’s finer restaurants, and bought them flowers to boot. Those in attendance moved their feet ACTIVITIES to the pulsating disco beat provided by Dave Lendry, who also spun a little heavy metal for the rock enthusiast, and some slower paced music for the romantically inclined. Dance goers might have been surprised to see smoke that was provided by the D.J. pouring from the stage, to add to the festive atmosphere that pre- vailed at the dance. Well into the night couples danced and gazed starry-eyed at each other, while groups of friends gath- ered at tables to share the good times. When the music from the last song faded, and the lights went out, couples, tired and happy, parted. Dances, like the Christmas Dance, don’t just happen. A lot of planning, time and headaches go into such affairs. Mem- bers of the Senior Class, especially com- mittee chairperson, Tricia Ribeiro, spent long hours planning, decorating, and cleaning up when the dance was over. This type of involvement is often very trying, but the echoes in the hallways of, “IT had such a good time,” made the work rewarding. 1. Peggy and Paul, as traditional as the Christmas Dance. 2.

ACTIVITIES 99 Spirit Vendors as anyone ever needed a little school spirit? It could be pur- chased at the school store in a vari- ety of items during all three lunches. Any- thing from pens and T-shirts, to bulldogs and tickets for a school game were offered to students at a more than economical price. Displaying the blue and white in ev- erything it sold, the school store lifted spir- its in a glance, and that’s not all! The friendly staff, with a cheery smile, always stood ready to help customers decide be- tween the medium or small, the blue or white. With Mr. Wilkie’s aid, who helped 100 ACTIVITIES with sales and the ordering of new items, as well as advised on procedures, the staff, Donna Bellucci, Lori Mercieri, Brenda Fo- ley, and Mary Tzambazakis, had a wonder- fully successful year boosting spirits and raising p rofits one-hundred percent. New additions, such as Classical shirts resem- bling the well known Adidas brand, were among money raisers. The school store not only lifted the school’s spirit, but also bene- fited the school’s needs with its profits. As students helped fellow students, the school was helped — and what could have been a better profit!? 1. ‘Boy! What a bargain!’’, says Mike Shapiro. 2. Mary Tzambazakis wants the roof to cave in with sales, not Lori Mercieri and Donna Bellucci. 3.

Book hen they were in need, students and teachers alike could find any topic at the school library because the Library Aides were always ready to aid them. Each member of this outstanding ser- vice was a volunteer who had been ap- proved by the principal. Students joined this staff (supervised by librarian Miss Brown) because they wished to have the satisfaction of assisting their fellow class- men. According to Miss Brown, the new Aides showed very good potential for working together. Each person was assigned to work at the library during any study period he or she 1.

They each were chosen for a position such as catagorizing books, cre- ating displays, stamping passes or an infi- nite number of other jobs. Unlike other clubs and services within the school, the Library Aides had no lead- ers, officers or presidents among them, for they had no need of them. Each one re- ferred to his or her own abilities to accom- plish their task each and every day. Because of their efforts, the Library Aides succeeded in making the library a favorite place for studying and leisure reading. ACTIVITIES 101 The High Society %qn illiam C. Hill couldn’t have done SWE better himself. Under the out- standing guidance of Mrs. Phyllis Thomas, the William C. Hill Chapter of the National Honor Society continue to upgrade Classical’s fine reputation of aca- demic excellence. Active members gave it their all to maintain the traditionally high academic standards of Classical High. NHS members were always ready to help out a student with academic diffi- culties by volunteering as tutors. Their services were also gratefully appreciated helping out in the office and monitoring the halls. Continually trying to hold the Classical students together as one, NHS members held their annual Alumni Tea in December. As the alumni reunited with old friends and teachers, the National Honor Society added another to their fine list of successes. ‘4 102 ACTIVITIES Becoming a member of the National Honor Society was no easy task. Dedi- cated students with high grade point aver- ages, and all-around good character re- presented the chosen few. Juniors with a grade point average of 3.75 by the mid- dle of their junior year or 3.5 average by the end of the year became eligible for NHS membership. Mrs. Thomas was hap- py to see that membership had increased a great deal by late fall. Hard-working officers of this year were President, Joy Guziec; Vice President, Jennifer Hartfield; Secretary, Holly Cox and Treasurer, Gerald O’Connor. Judged on their leadership abilities, de- votion, pride, and service, as well as aca- demic ability, National Honor Society members lived up to the high standards of their school. 1.

ACTIVITIES 103 The Lifesavers 41 of worth.” This gratifying statement by Mr. Alexander Y Schmid, teacher of CPR and Standard First Aid, is the basis to his motives of teaching these courses. Because Mr. Schmid felt a need for students to learn these basic life-saving techniques, he began Standard First Aid and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation(CPR) four years ago. CPR is a methodof oxygen- ating a person’sblood after a heart attack or some otherinstance when the heart stops. External heart massage is used topump the blood throughout the victim’s body. The experience of learning these skills is definitely “instant gratification.”” The students put their knowledge towork immedi- ately when they are faced with accidents both in and out of school. They also see relevance in the courses when they apply for jobs as lifeguards during the summer. The two courses are offered for ten weeks at the endof the school yearto any student who is interested enough to getout of a study or gym period.Those people who opt to take the courses are doing sowithout receiving credit, therefore only the students who want tolearn the techniques take the classes. Mr. Schmid sees this approach as unique, because it is the first time he’s seen students studying on their own without being forced. The Red Cross standards for CPR and Standard First Aid require thirty hours for completion of the courses, but Mr. Schmid’s standards area bit higher because he feels students will be more likely to remember the techniques and respond without hesitation if they are taught for a greater amount of time. His ultimate goal is to have CPR required for graduation. Stories from students who have taken the courses prove that they have been effective. They have cleared obstructed airways and performed first aidtechniques on friends and strangers. This year, Mr. Schmid set up an Advanced First Aid class for students wishing to hold lifesavingjobs in the summer. For as long as the need is there, the student’s desire to learn will be present. 104 FEATURES 31.

Study halls very often were not used to study, but to catch an extra hour of sleep. Instead, studying was squeezed in be- tween additions and multiplications in math class. Noses were also found deep in the bindings of books in the cafeteria during lunch hour, because many stu- dents found that doing fifth period’s Eng- lish assignment during third lunch was their best bet. Some students were also found studying in the library along with many others who may have ended up there for lack of anything better to do. Of course, there were many other ways and places students chose to study, such as crammed in a locker, relaxed on the front steps or perhaps in between naps in the privacy of their own bedroom. But, whether or not it was rushed through the night before, if there was work to do, students at Classical got it done in their own special way. 1. Wow!

The he freshmen and sophomore classes were new to the school and the senior class was the cream of the crop. The juniors were left to be a happy medi- um. After two years of intense studying and being at the bottom of the barrel, their efforts were paid off in the shape of reaching their junior year. The students found that they now had two classes of students behind them which boosted their spirits and lifted their noses. But, this floating on clouds only lasted until the students caught a glimpse of those foot loose and fancy free seniors, sporting their senior caps, being dismissed after fifth period, and hanging around on the front steps. Down came the juniors’ spir- its and noses. It was bad enough for the juniors to come back to school and face the new system, with its new rule that in simple terms states, ‘‘more than four tar- dies means detention.’’ Making matters worse was the fact that naps aren’t al- lowed in detention hall anymore and some form of schoolwork must be done. However, the juniors found that the year went by faster than expected, and that no, the year had not turned out a total disaster. Instead, it came to each and every junior mind that their chance to lay back and raise their noses was only a summer vacation away.

He had a 3.6 average, took all C.P. courses and some advanced courses. He was considered an above average student. And then he took the Scholastic Aptitude Test, more common- ly known as the SAT. On a rainy Saturday morning, this stu- dent stumbled out of bed and loyally went to the test center. With butterflies in his stomach, he took the test. He expect- ed to get at least a 520 in math and a 510 in verbal. After waiting about a month, he received his results. He looked at his scores and cried for the rest of the day. He knew that a 370 in math and a 340 in verbal would not get him into his dream college. His life was ruined. He went to his counselor for some help and received an inspiration. He would take the SAT’s again. There was still a future for him. He prepared himself for the test. He slept 10 hours the night before, had a well balanced breakfast with juice, and off he went to take the test again. The butter- flies were gone, he was confident of his abilities. He had memorized all the math- ematical formulas and studied up on his analogies. A month later, upon receiving his test scores, he cried again. He had slightly improved his score to a 400 in math and a 370 in verbal. Surprisingly, he went on to college and majored in the field he wanted. He graduated from col- lege 5th out of a class of 650 students, went on to the Harvard Law School and is now a successful judge. The moral of this fairy-tale is that one should never give up because the SAT scores consider him a bad risk. The SAT’s do not always test a person’s true potential. That’s why many colleges now weigh a person’s background more than his SAT scores. A person should not give up in life because a test says that he’s incompetent. He should still try to make it big. Maybe someday, he’ll prove that the SAT’s were wrong. 1. Cramming for the SAT’s is like watching T.V.., all you get is red eyes. 2. Going to your counselor is like going to the library, all you get is a headache.

INC. t the beginning of this year, like all other years, the sophomore class at Classical was divided into two specific groups. There were, of course, the sophomores who attended Classical last year as freshmen, who al- ready had the security of friendships and relationships. Then, there were the not- so-sure students who elected to stay at their junior highs for ninth grade instead of coming Classical. This group was broken into subgroups of students from each end of the city. Unlike the freshmen who came back for their sophomore year, these students had to start all over again in a new school with new people and a new system. After a while though, friends of friends began to do some talking and the differ- ent groups were invited to parties and other social events. Soon the arrange- ments were made and the merger was successful. The newly founded group also found an appropriate name for them- selves that has a sort of catchy ring to it; the sophomore class, the class of 1982. so i hg ( ea = YS a Y � . rs - = = Aue 1.

While in school, they can meet in the halls, or visit ‘‘lover’s lane’ — the loge. But outside of school is where the problems begin. Many parents, especially those with daughters, are very particular about whom she is seeing. Then there is the problem of driving. What if neither of them drives? It is very hard for them to get together without the assistance of a parent, a sibling, or a friend. But sometimes it isn’t that bad, if by chance he lives just down the street. On the other hand, if the boy does drive, the parents may not like the idea of their girl going out on a “‘car’’ date with him. Another nuisance is curfews. It seems like one or the other always has to be home early, at least an hour earlier than most friends. Even though these prob- lems seem hard to bear now, the students don’t give up, because they know the moment of freedom will soon come. Until then, they’ll just have to hang in there! —_£_ Room 312: Victor La Pier, Margaret LaPoiedvin, Maryanne MacDonall, Patricia Long, Christine Lafa.

Students had to concern themselves with such questions as, ‘Am I taking the right courses for the career field that I want to enter?’ and, “‘Will my math and science courses be Room 334: Eric Van Camp, Elaine Torres, Amy Vredenburg, Debra Tower.

Absent: Vincent Washington, Darryl Vachon, Kenneth Voisine, Lauren Toolin. — In order to lessen some of these prob- lems, Classical students were required by their counselors to fill out long range pro- gram cards projecting future plans. This meant that if while in the tenth grade a student had an interest in entering medi- cal school, he might have structured his program around extensive science and math along with the required courses. This method was fine for those students who had an idea of which way their fu- tures were heading, but what about those who weren’t sure? As if underclassmen didn’t have enough trouble with course choices, the worry of meeting college specifications was added. During their junior year, stu- dents were expected to write to colleges for catalogues listing requirements. What they may have found was that although their math courses — through calculus, for example — met the requirements, their background in another area such as science may have been inadequate. Then of course, the student had to hope and pray that the deficiency could be reme- died in the coming year. Along with the worries of course choice and college requirements, stu- dents had to plan ahead for special tests needed for college entry. These included the PSAT, taken in the junior year, along with the SAT. To add to the situation, students had to think about colleges only accepting applicants within certain scor- ing ranges. Anyone who has gone through the fu- ture frenzy can tell that there are plenty of sleepless nights spent pondering the future, yet somehow most students suc- ceed! 1. “I’m a member of the class of 1995 and I’m Room B-1: Willis Cari, Weller Annmarie, White Deidree.

Consid- ering that there are only about eight hours between the time school gets out and 10:00 and 10:30, the average bed- time, it leaves little time for schoolwork. As a result of these jobs, many students are failing in their subjects. Therefore the only obvious solution is-either quit the job completely, or see if one’s hours can be cut down. Many students use the excuse “But I need the money!” but they should consider the fact that schooling is really more important than a job, and the rest of one’s life will usually be spent working. i) PS 1.

KISS AND MAKE UP here’s a certain place in Classical aah High School where a guy likes to bring his certain special girl to “‘talk”’ over old times. Of course, every- one knows that this place is the loge, the scenic corridor overlooking the audito- rium. Yes, this is Classical’s own “‘Lovers lane.” The beautiful, white pillars, the privacy of the balcony, the antique chandaliers, and the clean old-fashioned windows with the glass just bright enough to shine some light on the ancient floor combine to pro- vide a favorable setting for many couples. (The corridor attracts so many couples that one might have to stand in line just to lean against a pillar!) ‘“‘Lover’s lane ’ is the place where lovers meet and lovers separate. It’s where they kiss and make up. Of course, a short stroll around the school should prove that “‘lover’s lane”’ is or is not the only place of enjoyment at Classical. There’s always a locker, or a dark corner, but none is quite the same as “‘lover’s lane.” 1. Who needs “‘Lovers Lane?’’ 2. Well! Now what do we do? 3.

A person with much determination, dedication, and the will to work hard for his team and himself does. Take, for example, the Cross Country runner. Unlike most sports, the Cross Country runner must have self-reliance and an extreme amount of endurance. His competition is on a one- to-one basis where he must rely solely on his own talents and skills to help him. The one motive that keeps him running is the satisfaction he feels when he overcomes his opponents and goes on toward victory. The cheers aren’t present but, they aren’t needed. The runner is one of a special breed of people who participate for personal satisfaction and pride. The practice and work that the runner puts in is done only for himself. He is out to achieve a personal goal to become better and faster, not only for himself but to help his team. If all his work pays off he may reach the Western Massachusetts competition which is the highest form of intrastate competition. The Cross Country runner is not the only type to belong to that special group; there are others who perform for personal pride, rather than the crowds; the musician who practices endless hours to achieve the finest in her creative talents concentrates intensely on her music; the bowler strives to reach the highest scores even if he has no fans to cheer him on; the chess player and the golfer must challenge their highest levels of concentration and develop individual styles that let them display superior performance to their opponents.

Breed Of People 133 FEATURES B W ENTHUSIASM CARRIES eam enthusiasm and a “never say die” attitude carried the Classical 1979 Baseball Team to a winning record of 8-6. Coach Michael Ligarski said that “Whatever these young men got, they earned. They were one terrific group of hard working young adults.” The one element that really carried this team was its team spirit. They would never give up; each game was played like a cham- pionship game. They gave their all in every situation. Coach Ligarski stated, ‘““The team was not overly talented, but they made up for their lack of talent with their over abun- dance of energy and enthusiasm.”’ There were certain young men who led the team, seniors Dino Casagrande and Nick Speliopoulos. These two athletes led the team, and through their efforts the team’s moral was uplifted in many situations. Coach Ligarski said he never enjoyed coaching a team more than this team. They were a team any coach would love to have the op- TEAM portunity to lead. The team, however, did have some weaker points. They were very poor defen- sively. The coach said he had trouble cover- ing the shortstop and outfield positions. This was where they lacked talent, and needed much improvement. Classical’s squad did not reach the West- ern Mass. Tournament. When questioned on this coach Ligarski stated, ““There were many rain outs, and teams with poor records refused to make up the games. Therefore our team had a limited schedule and were unable to replay enough games to enter the competition.” When the season drew to a close Mr. Ligarski was pleased with the team as a whole. Underclassmen Todd Ezold, John Danieli, and John Budrow also impressed the veteran coach. His final comments were, “They performed well all season. It was a good season, one many will remember.” 1.

The J.V. team is formed so these young men may have the opportu- nity to perfect their skills so they can be promoted to the varsity team. Coach Robert Keough stated, “That with a lot of work and dedication each and every- one of these fine young athletes could very well be supporting'Classical’s varsity team.”’ The individuals that stood out and gave their coach much optimism were Dan Dupre, Pete Spiliokus, and Miles Keroack. They worked hard and contained a lot of team spirit. ““These were just a few of the kids who were headed for the varsity team,” quoted coach Keough. Despite their constant effort and determi- nation, their lack of experience surpassed their desire for victory. They ended the sea- son with a losing record of 5-6. Individually, however, there was great success and each young man can look ahead with hopes of making the varsity team. LE ES ELE RE DE IE IIE LE IEEE LEE TEE: FOLLETT D LES ALE LLL TE ELL A, 1.

New to the competition, the team was not in a designated league. They had to ar- range their own meets with various schools as well as share the track while they prac- ticed. With little time and space available, most teams would have been discouraged, but not Classical.

The State Champion- ship Meet showed Denise Victory at her best in the high jump and Molly Gallimore, a tough competitor in the shotput.

Despite the lack of com- petition, the 1979 Classical Golf Team drove their way to a winning record of 7-5. Unfortunately, a coach can not expect a team composed of six different men to per- form to the best of their abilities at the same time. This was a problem that plagued Clas- sical’s Coach Schmid. On any given day one player might break par, while another could have his worst outirig ever. Coach Alex- ander Schmid summed it up in these words, “We lacked depth along with consistent play.” When asked to elaborate on the past sea- sons play, Coach Schmid was noted as say- ing, ‘“The team played well, steadily improv- 1.

Coached by Linda Rozzi, the girls won or lost as a team and encouraged each other all the way. Coach Rozzi said, ‘“The girls seemed to take turns coming through with the clutch hit or the important defensive play.”’ Although there were no outstanding players, captains Denise Smith and Sharon Lane seemed to help tremendously in boosting the team’s morale. Coach Rozzi was pleased with the results of last year’s team. She said the girls gave each game their best shot and always kept their spirits high. Despite this, the team, as all teams, had its bad points. Miss Rozzi said that the girls sometimes lacked dedication and concentration. The season ended with a winning record of 10-9. In contrast, the second-year Junior Varsi- ty team, coached by Carol Smith, was dedi- cated and hard-working. Despite this, the season ended with a record of 1-9.

Only in their second year, the girls began last season inexperienced but en- thusiastic. Weather was an important factor in the results of last year’s season. Coach Sandra Camp said, “In general, our most important problem was rain. Every good day was a game day. Playing so many games without practicing was hard on the team.’’ Because of the lack of practices, it was hard getting to know how each girl played, alone and to- gether. Despite this, Coach Camp said, “Most matches were extremely well played, even those in which we lost.” Although the season ended with a losing record of 8-10, there were many good as- pects to last year’s team. According to Miss Camp, there was much development and potential in new members of the team, such as Kathie Bowler, Debby Niglieri, and many others. She said that the outstanding efforts of Anne Yuneman and Amy Kunhardt, as well as those of others on the team, supplied great encouragement to newer players. Looking back, the 1979 season was a source of inspiration to all the players. The girls finished the season satisfied and encour- aged, but looking forward to an even better season next year. : ie Ss la Ag BEG, RE | + fi 1.

It’s the first time we have beaten them since I have been coach, or maybe ever!” Though they fell short of their objective for a 14-4 season finish.

SPORTS 145 A SEASON OF DISAPPOINTMENTS illed with the confidence of past vic- tories, the 1979 Classical Football Team looked for an even better sea- son. However, it was not to be. Plagued by injuries, the team suffered a disappointing season. As the season proceeded, the team lost eleven starting players. A comeback from this adversity seemed almost impossible. Ac- cording to Coach McLaughlin, the team was dedicated, emotionally mature and just re: fused to die despite the loss of teammates. Perhaps the most devastating was the loss of starting quarterback, Tommy Johnson. As the result of a tragic accident, Tom was lost for the entire season. The shocked team reacted by dedicating practices and games. This ‘‘emotional high’ lifted the team through early games. However, sheer deter- mination and dedication carried the team through subsequent injuries. Although the season ended with a record of 2-7, this record was not indicative of team talent. Led by captains, Russ Ursprung, Vin- nie Johnson, and Bruce White, the team challenged each opponent and every game had.a close score. Also, Classical emerged with several recognized players; Russ Urs- prung-All-Western Mass. second team and All-League, Bruce White-All-League, Duaine Harris-All-League second team and Vinnie Johnson-All-League second team. Even though these seniors will be leaving, underclassmen wait to fill their spots.

Despite this, Classical made an excellent showing in Western Mass. with Don Rickson placing second, Mike Rooney fourth, and Fred Dris- coll eighth. The Springfield Daily Republican was quoted as saying that these three run- ners were ‘“‘the best one, two, three punch in all of Western Mass.”’ When commenting on the team, Caoch Rieker was extremely optimistic.

SPORTS n all his years of coaching Classical She Soccer teams, Coach Stratton has never had a losing season and this year was no exception. Coach Stratton attri- butes much of the team’s success to his J.V. counterpoint, Coach Bob Smith. ‘‘Coach Bob Smith is an invaluable assistant to whom the Classical Soccer program owes a great deal.” This year’s team had quite a few spirit leaders, in the forms of Bob Moeller, the team’s leading scorer, Ray Wholley, a junior standout, John Keefe, a senior halfback and John Danieli, the team’s goalie. These few plus Pete Henderson, who got the team mo- tivated for all the games, led the enthusiasm of the team. Coach Stratton had to build up his team almost from scratch, as he lost 7 out of his last year’s starting 11 due to graduation. Coach Stratton, however, piloted his 1979 Classical Boys’ Soccer Team to an admira- ble 8-8 season, defeating some of the tough- est teams in the league, including Ludlow and Westfield. Classical had innumerable achievements 150 SPORTS during the season, among these was their trouncing of a strong Ludlow team by a score of 2-1. They also knocked Westfield out of the Western Mass. tournament by defeating them by a score of 3-1 in their last match of the season. Classical’s loss to Cathedral on the teams’ second meeting was a disappointing one, but the team still played every other game as if it were for the championship. Coach Stratton remarked, ‘‘Soccer is unlike any other sport, you can not speed up or slow down the game. Soccer has an uncontrollable tempo, you can only play the game and hope for the breaks to fall your way.”’ He also stated, “‘It was our inability to score goals that really hurt us. However by beating the tough teams in the clutch, Classical proved just what a good 8-8 team they really are.” This season, unfortunately, the breaks did not go Classical’s way.

Captain Paul Veto, an offensive player, was outstanding. He was a key factor in Classical’s power play. “His great skating ability made him a valuable asset to the team’’. Stated Coach Kokonowski. Veto was a leader on the team and every skater looked up to and respected his ability. The talent on this team was very wide- spread. Junior Dave Boshko and Senior Steve Sypeck made up a great team when it came to scoring goals. ““Sypeck would set a perfect pass, and Boshko would put it right where it belonged, in the goal.’”” Coach Ko- konowski observed. Defense was not without its stars, Bob Mucha is one of the best defensemen in the league. He makes up one fourth of the best foursome in Western Mass. The other three were Tom Crogan, Ray Wholley, and Harry Tighe. They helped senior goalie Miles Ker- oack a great deal. Keroack improved tre- mendously over the three years of high school, through hard work, dedication, and brains. He is now one of the top three goal- ies in Western Mass. There are stars on this team, but the real strength lies in the ability of the team to play as a unit. There is also a great amount of depth in every position. Jimmy Keleher, Todd Ezold, and Gary Bellefeulle, are three examples of the great depth on this team. Talent, hard work, enthusiasm and a de- sire to win that is unconquerable, all these characteristics contributed to the great suc- cess of the 1980 Classical Hockey Team.

A STRIKING SEASON . | em , s ¥ : A Pe oe - ; his year’s bowling season was one of great success and many surprises. Among the surprises were new team members Brenda Glennie and Angelo Cha- clas. Coach Armen Jermakian said, “‘Both players are bright, new prospects. Their un- usually high averages were pleasant sur- prises.” Brenda Glennie opened the season with a 95 average and Angelo Chaclas scored the highest single in a junior varsity game. He was then promoted to the varsity team. Back for the third year, captain Scott At- kins is the team’s most outstanding player. He was the league’s top bowler as both a ninth and tenth grader. The team was full of enthusiasm as the members rooted for each other at every possible moment. Given the rivalry and hard competition between the schools, this enthu- siasm carried them through the season. This year’s season opened up with a tri- umphant 8-0 win over Putnam but the team was disappointed soon after by a hard loss to Tech. Although Classical lost the Cham- pionship to Cathedral last year, Mr. Jerma- kian said he does not expect this to happen again. With the return of Scott Atkins and the promise of new members Brenda Glen- nie and Angelo Chaclas, Mr. Jermakian ex- pects to win the Championship. 1.

This year’s team has the makings of a champion. No game has ever gotten out of hand, each one being close and well played. The team is a very well disciplined one, waiting for the good shots and then capitaliz- ing on those opportunities. The team also has a very well balanced scoring attack, with 160 SPORTS every member of the squad getting a few points every game. Classical’s real tests came when they met Commerce and Tech. In their Tech mat- chup, Classical was hitting 52% from the floor, and defeated Tech by a slim margin that day. While on that same streak, Classi- cal went on to defeat highly ranked Com- merce in a close, low-scoring game. This ended Classical’s four year losing streak against Commerce. Despite the loss to Commerce on their second meeting, Coach Stratton still has high hopes for post season play. ‘“‘With our | teamwork and great depth, there is no rea- son why we can’t go all the way to the top.” That is where we will be looking for the 1979 Boys Basketball team at the end of the year, at the top! 1.

According to Coach Des- rochers, ‘‘Gymnastics is a game of work and time. It is not a game of strategy but of skill.”’ This attitude was evident in the effort of the gymnasts. Many times during homeroom periods and after school, the team could be found doing some extra practicing. Led by team captains Denise Smith and Kelly Pick- rell, the girls cooperated and as a result improved steadily. If there were any disadvantages to the team, it was probably their lack of exper- ience. In the present set-up of competing teams, Classical was forced to compete against more experienced gymnasts at schools like Minnechaug and Longmeadow. As a result, when competing against these schools, the girls usually watch, learn and develop style. There is hope that next year, the division will be set-up so that Classical will have com- petition against equally talented schools. 1. Kerstin Pelligrino in perfect balance. 2.

Which way is up? 162 SPORTS 9 ¢ : a SPORTS his year, the 1979 Boys’ Swim Team was able to respond to their competitors with a challenge and the well known Classical spirit. It was qualities such as these that made them more than an average team. The only thing that could have hurt the team was the fact that it was not a large team. For this reason, emphasis was placed on the output of each swimmer; no one received special treatment. ‘‘We count on everyone to do their best,’’ stated Coach Arthur Barnes, “‘and that’s exactly what they did.”” Swimming lap after lap was tire- some, but these daily workouts led to the forming of a strong and versatile team. Each man competed not only as a part of the team but also in individual events. This one- on-one competition encouraged them to work all the harder, making their triumphs — 164 SPORTS TOGETHERNESS all the more satisfying. Working together, each man supported his teammates through practices and meets, urging each other to improve and set new records. Scoring highly were Michael Patterson and Ross Stavropoulos, who were both strong and talented in the butterfly events. In the breast stroke were Gerry Adams and Corky Trowbridge. Both improved tremen- dously, to the point where they placed well, no matter how stiff the competition was. To strengthen their power, Matt Rickson swam backstroke and Robert Rourke displayed his ability in sprinting. The team was complete when Jon Hayward and Donald Rickson came through in the free style competition. The icing on the cake was Mikel Longo, who exhibited his talent in diving. This set-up was very important to the team as this was the first year that the var- ey, oe. IT WORK ious teams have been catagorized to balance the competition. Classical had now, for the first year, competed againt teams of their caliber. This has given the team a goal-to be champions of Miller Division. In striving for their goal, each member has shown their resistance to defeat and their enthusiasm for learning. Inspired by the four captains, Ross Stav- ropoulos, Michael Patterson, Donald Rick- son and Jon Hayward, the team ended the season with a record of 9-6. In addition to the winning record, this season has been a good one, built on the solid relationship be- tween the coach and the team. With the guidance of Coach Barnes and the team spir- it, Classical proved to be too tough to con- quer. 1. Ross Stavropoulos gives his opponent something to worry about as he soars to the finish. 2.

Coach Tipton stressed that the team needed more girls and more depth so as to have a junior varsity team. He regretted the fact that only five girls could play per game while the others did not get any playing experience. “If we had more team members, those who didn’t get a chance to play varsi- ty, could get practice playing junior varsity games,” said Coach Tipton. When asked what caused the complete turnabout in this year’s team, Coach Tipton said that the new girls made a big difference Sitting-Kathy Richardson, Tracey May, Darlene Care- lock, Heather Mackie, and Brenda Watts. 3.

With its arrival has come some new fashions, some new “‘tunes’’, a bit of nostalgia, and some inflation. As always, fashion has changed. For some, the look is slim, silky, and showy. This effect is achieved by skirts with long slits up the sides, and designer jeans that only look good when they cut off the circulation. Others prefer the classic look, with pleated skirts, “‘reefer’’ coats and _ suede shoes that looks similar to a golf shoe without spikes. For others, thereare ‘“‘bag- gy’’ jeans, hiking boots with long red shoelaces and cowboy boots, similar to those little boys dream of when they want to be a cowboy. It seems Americans are always going back twenty years, and in 1980we’re turning back to the sixties. Some of the new movies definitely reflect this. ““‘The Rose’’, based on the life of rock singer Janice Joplin, “‘Hair’’, about the protests of the sixties, “Apocoalypse Now”, about the Vietnam War, “Deerhunter”, also about the war, and ‘‘Quadrophenia’’, about the gangs and problems of the sixties, are all exam- ples of the acceptance of the sixties in the year of 1980. Of course, not all movies reflect the sixties, such as “Star Trek” and “1941”. But still going strong is a movie whose leading lady is a voluptuous ham, named “Miss Piggy” and the lead is played by a handsome, green frog named ‘‘Kermit”’. In music for 1980, the disco beat is slowly dying and a new kind of music is taking its place. This music is called ‘New Wave” and it r 1. Michelle Pagourgis shows off her “‘feathered”’ hairstyle. 172 FEATURES ” h. BEB ¢ a TH 5 q iS SALE Mile THIS SALE , ‘ Gul POOR ws FR! GALLONS GALLONS has a unique style all its own. Such new groups as ‘Blondie’, ‘“‘The Talking Heads’, ‘‘The Buzzcocks”, “‘The Knack’’, and ‘“‘The B-Fifty Two’s”’ are all examples of the “New Wave’”’ rock. These composers create new and inter- esting ways to perform their music. Compared to other musicians’ music their work is original and exciting. Hair this year for some is going curly, others, wavy, and others straight or feathered. What was known as the “‘Afro”’ is now being replaced by the ‘‘perm’”’ or permanent hair style which is the way to achieve an instant curly top. The “body perm’”’ is the style that adds waves but not curls, and the feathered look does exactly as it’s named, by cutting the hair in layers and pushing it back. All these hair styles are unisex and, in 1980, guys are keeping their hair short and neat. For those who don’t prefer any style, straight hair is still ‘‘in’’. Like always, prices are changing too. Gas price increases hit students in the wallet the most. Prices now range from $1.05 to $1.20 a gallon. The possibilities of gasoline prices be- coming $2.00 or more a gallon is not at all unlikely. Clothes have risen in price and al- though money can be saved by traveling to other places, like Connecticut, the effort and time make it seem futile. One good change in prices is the increase of the minimum wage from $2.90 to $3.10. These are only some of the changes expect- ed in 1980. Until 1990 we won’t know for sure what all the changes will be in the eighties. Are you ready for ‘‘Future Shock’? | 93 | FEATURES B W 173 1. “Boy, you certainly take your losses seriously!”’ 2.

CLOSING 1980, that year which overflowed with promises; the year which knew the Iranian crisis, the gas shortage and the snow shortage; the year which allowed us time to grow, to live and to learn; 1980 has drawn-to a close. Perhaps the calendar says it has ended, but 1980 will never be over for us. Each of us will carry his own, unique memories of this special year, and when we look back, 1980 will come alive for us again. 1980 may now be in the past, but the past is always alive in the future. Every option you chose, every discovery you made about yourself and your world, every experience you had in 1980 will shape the future. You, students of Classi- cal, will create the future, just as you have created this book. While the future is important, it is the present which concerns us. All the memories we have of this year — the routine scramble for a seat on the bus, the smug look on the face of the senior cruising by in his car, knowing he won’t have to scramble, the smug feeling if you were that senior cruising by, all the lunches when you tried to guess what was in the foil surprise, all the notes you passed in that boring English class, all the romances you knew (or didn’t know), the cold, hard benches at the football games, the invisible snow, joking around by your locker, Monday morning and Friday afternoon, the seniors throwing up their caps, yelling and cheering and crying — all these memories were once the present. These moments will nev- er be repeated — you had to make the most of every one. Make the most of every opportunity which arises — keep your options open, for options are the present, and will be the future. Be willing to take a chance. Take life in your hands and enjoy it — enjoy the little things before they become just little things. It’s the little things which make memories come alive.
