East Haven High School - Pioneer Yearbook (East Haven, CT)

Text from Pages 1 - 248 of the 1980 volume:

totted %0 V A yearbook can be many things. It can be a memory book, a history of the year, or a reference book. Most of all it's a mirror. It reflects us and our lives through our high school years. As we look into this mirror, we see more than just what appears on the surface. We see how we've changed over the years, and how we've remained the same. No matter how many changes we've been through one thing has always remained clear-our determination. Whether we were in school or out, studying or relaxing, we strived to reach our goals. When something was important to us we saw it through to the very end, pushing until we reached our limit of capability. When our ideas weren't in agreement with those of others, we knew we were in for trying times, but we didn't quit. We brought things right to the edge, testing tempers and toying with tolerance. We leave behind our high school years, but with us take our determination. We will continue to grow and to expand, and to reach out for new horizons. We will always TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT. 2 When Is The Bell Going To Ring? Although we were given the freedom to choose our own classes, we sometimes weren't as interested as we could have been. At one time or another each of us wanted to be somewhere else. When we had to stay in class, we found several ways to make the time pass more quickly. A few of them were talking to friends and passing notes. Every class also had one or two devoted clock watchers. All were informed what time it was and that we shouldn't start something new because class was almost over. Our teachers sympathized with us and would sometimes let us get sidetracked onto a more interesting topic. We didn't always accomplish everything that they had planned for the day, but classtime became much more enjoyable. |4 I'm OKYou're OX. I do my thing, and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations. And you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you and I am I, And if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful. Frederick S. Peris During the first parts of our lives we were molded by our parents and teachers into what they wanted us to be. By the time we reached high school, we were finally allowed to make our own decisions. It was then that we began to realize what it was that we really enjoyed. There were others in school who shared our interests, and we spent alot of time with these people. Everyone saw us with these friends, and we were soon classified into groups. Some of us became known as athletes or musicians. Others were classified by our special interests in cars, or out of school activities like rollerskating, dancing or concerts. These social groupings sometimes made it hard to get to know others besides those in our close circle of friends, but things changed with time. After four years together we left as one large group. One of the many and most important things we learned in school was that no matter how different we may have seemed on the outside, basically we were all similar and we could enjoy being with each other. Fifteen Minute Break Coffee break, lunch break. All over the country Americans are taking breaks. During our junior year breaks worked their way into our daily school routine. The bell that sounded the end of third period was like a gift from heaven above. We all depended on the quickly passing fifteen minutes to pull us through the rest of the day. The break quickly turned into a social event. Groups of friends would gather around lockers to discuss the day's latest gossip. Others would go outside and enjoy a cigarette. Some of us used this time to ease our hunger pains. And what better way than with the school's most abundant resource-CANDV! The halls were lined with dedicated club members anxious to be done with their share of the fundraising effort. Quite a few romances were born during the break. Many a Friday night date depended on what was or wasn't said during those few crucial minutes. It turned out that the time between third and fourth periods became an important part of our school day. In allowing us this fifteen minute time lapse, the administrators did indeed “give us a break. A Place To Hang My Hat When looking back on our high school years, the things we might remember most could be friends, teachers, and studying. We overlook the things that didn't demand our attention, like our lockers, but they were important because they gave each of us our own little place to call home. In the early days of our freshmen year, our lockers created what we thought at the time were tremendous problems for us. Half of us couldn't open them and the other half couldn't reach the tops. Once we got used to them, no one was without one. Lockers were a place to keep our books and coats, but we also found other uses for them. Many times a locker took the brunt of an argument or helped in releasing a little tension by being punched, slammed, or kicked. We also found that lockers were a great place to gather around. Meet me at my locker, or I'll meet you at your locker were common phrases to us all. Most of us really didn't care what our lockers looked like, but some of us did, and decorated them. The walls were covered with posters and stickers, and there were even a few with mirrors. Throughout the school, the sound of lockers opening and closing echoed constantly. When thinking back we may push the memory of our lockers aside, but without them, we would have been lost. 1 This Time, Let's Do It Right! We were dedicated, hard working, and proud. This is just a brief description of those of us who participated in afterschool activities. We realized that to accomplish what we wanted took hard work and devotion. Most of these students started practice right after school, only taking time to catch a quick bite to eat. After lunch, they started practice and continued for the rest of the afternoon. The coaches made sure that everyone did his best, even when students sometimes felt that too much was expected of them. Through it all. the good performances and the bad, the triumphs and the losses, we were a team. Each of us gained something far more valuable than personal glory . We learned to be dedicated, determined, and satisfied when we knew we had given it our best. 12 D.J. Greco Cathy Tropiano 1980 Superlatives The 1980 Pioneer Staff took a poll asking seniors what fellow classmates they felt took it to the limit . The following are additional categories and their winners: CLASS BLUSHER Bill Severino Ann Coyle BEST DANCER Dom Sgro Pam Boncek NICEST SMILE Pat Gallagher Lynn Pellegrino FRIENDLIEST Dominic Langello Michelle Madonna ACCOMPLISHED MOST FOR CLASS Chuck Schlegel Caroline Vitale LOVE BIRDS Mark Scussel Chris Ramadei MOST COURTEOUS Ed Lyon Lisa Valenti Ed Lyon MOST MUSICAL Peggy Mansfield BEST DRESSED Anthony Gamberdella Andrea Criscoulo MALE ATHLETE Sean Sisson 14 CLASS CLOWNS Pat Speranza Paula Barbeifi 15 Dedication It is with great pleasure that we dedicate the 1980 Pioneer to Mrs. Teresa L. Vitale. In addition to dedicating heir time and efforts to our academic achievements, she has also helped us in other aspects of our lives throughout our four years of high school. Mrs. Vitale is actively involved in the Physical Education Club and she supports a vari- ety of East Haven athletic teams. Although her spare time is filled with such activities as reading, bowling, quilting, and crocheting; she always has time to spend with a student who may need to talk to her. Mrs. Vitale resides in East Haven with her husband and two children, Ralph and Caroline. 16 WJvxt 1 Did On Mg Simmer Yacwtioji z started out the summer of '79 with area t plans.

They shared with us their extensive knowledge of reading, writing, and speaking. Marjorie Dempsey communicated with us her feelings about school: Q. Where were you in '62? (The year most of our seniors were born.) A.Just before going back to Albertus Magnus, I was substitute teaching. Q. What has it been like going to school every day (high school, college, teaching)? A. I have always loved school, no matter what my role, whether it be as a student or teacher. Q. What are your hobbies? A. My hobbies are travel and the theatre, and at one time my daughter and I both worked together in the drama club while I was teaching. Personal Comment: I feel that the majority of the students at East Haven are awfully nice. MARJORIE DEMPSEY 37 ROBERT SCARAMELLA HELEN TULLO Reading Aide JUUE MUSTAKOS MARGARET WHITTACHER Reading Aide JOHN DELLAPIETRA READING LAB Everyone was provided with an equal education and the reading teachers helped make sure of that. Patricia Bello says: Q. Where were you in '62? A. I was a senior here at East Haven. Q. What are your hobbies? A. I do alot of reading, sketching, and crewel work. Q. How have you liked being in school all your life? A. It's become a way of life; I just don't think about it being a job. I like teaching at the high school better than the middle school. Q. Do you have any children who ask for help with their homework? A. I have a three year old son who only asks for normal assistance. Personal Comment: I teach in the reading lab and it gives me a great deal of satisfaction to see what my students can accomplish in one year. Most of them are receptive to help and they are a pleasure to work with. I feel close to my kids . 39 PATRICIA BELLO MARY WEBER Department Head ROBERT MANFREDA VINCENT DISTASIO RICHARD PLATT AUDREY HARPER ILONA SYPNIEWSKI MARGARET SHEEHAN LOUIS ANASTASIO DONALD SUPRENANT Social Studies Much more than history was taught in the area of social studies. Along with the dates and facts we learned the reasons behind them. Veteran history teacher Gerry Lembo spoke: Q. Where were you in '62? A. I was teaching here at East Haven. This is my 25th year in this school. Q. What are your hobbies? A. I like all athletic events and enjoy golfing. Also, watching former students excell. Q. What do you do during break? A. I have hall duty every other day and I visit different parts of the school to talk to my fellow teachers. Q. Did any of your children ever ask you for help with their homework? A. I left the responsibility to them. I feel it should be up to the individual child, although it is my moral physical obligation to be available if needed. PERSONAL COMMENT: I think every student should be required to participate in at least one extracurricular activity each year. The purpose of this would be to give the student a greater feeling of belonging in contrast to leaving with a lack of association. 41 ALPHONSE CANNAVACIOLO ANTHONY DELLA VENTURA Department Head FREDERICK ALDERMAN RICHARD MELLILO JACQUELINE LEMBO ANTHONY NUCOLO MATH Math had always been stero-typed as a subject understood only by the ancient wise man.'' To contrast this we heard the views of newly married Linda Esposito: Q. Where were you in '62? A. I was attending college at Al-bertus Magnus. Q. What are your hobbies? A. I like movies, knitting, and dancing. Q.How do you like going to school every day? A. I like the academic atmosphere and enjoy being in school. I liked Wesleyan graduate school best. Personal Comment: I enjoy my new married life. THEODORE MALONIS Department Head - 1 ■ 000 v) lotT 51 Dozen --1 S� xRck o'V cftotf $ . ok „ GAOWOS . RICHARD FIORE THEODORE KACZYNSKI ROBERT PROTO PAMELA DEMARSEILLES Science As we grew older and wiser we began to wonder why things existed the way they did. The science department satisfied our curiosity very well. Joseph Cohen explained some of his feelings to us in the following: Q. Where were you in '62? A. I was attending SCSC, worked as a chemical medical technician at Yale. Q. What are your hobbies? A. Besides being a Masonic lodge member, I like reading, photography, hunting, fishing and working with computers. Q. What do you do during the 15 minute break? A. I like to have my coffee and talk with the students. Personal comment: The science department is the best department in the school because we update our material every year. I also think that the students are generally good and I don't dislike anyone. 45 JOSEPH COHEN 46 Business The business department offered to us a variety from our traditional classes. Instead of being prepared for a field we were taught specific career skills right on the spot. We heard from successful businessman furned teacher Joe Pascale: Q. Where were you in '62? A. Working as a public accountant. Q. What are your hobbies? A. Music. I play in the brass sections of several bands. Q. Whaf do you do during the break? A. I'm on hall duty. Q. What has it been like going to school after you've completed your own education? A. I love coming to school everyday. Q. Did any of your children ask you for help with their homework? A. My children always asked me for a lot of help. Personal Comment: I think the Board of Education should make a definite attendance policy. 47 ELAINE MIERZEJEWSKI JOSEPH PASCALE i A V Language The knowledge of a foreign language always adds a nice touch to the background of a person. The language department gave us the opportunity to learn other languages and many students took advantage. Joe Massa told us a few of hi; thoughts: Q. Where were you in '62? A. Way back in 1962, I was teaching Spanish at East Haven. JANET STOPKA HARRY BORELLI GIANCARLO DESTEFANIS JOSEPH MASSA DegartmenUHeac Q. What are your hobbies? A. Four days a week, I exercise at a gym to keep in shape. Q. What do you do during the 15 minute break? A. I go on duty in the corridor, stay in my room to correct papers. I only do work related to my job. Q. How do you like going to school every day? A. Although there are times when I get frustrated, there is enough satisfaction in teaching to keep me going. Personal Comment: It is harder to teach your own kids than the kids in school because you don’t have the patience with your own kids. Fine Arts PAUL BELLO LOUIS CRESENTI Dept Head DEBRA PLATT Many students benefited from the talents of our art teachers. We were taught how to express ourselves through this medium. The following shows some of the ideas of Louis Cresenti: Q. Where were you in ’62? A. I started teaching here in 1950 and have been here ever since. Q. What are your hobbies? A. I am constantly painting in my studio at home. I display my paintings and sell them at art shows. Q. Do you have any children? A. Yes, I have two sons and one daughter. My son is a disc jockey, my daughter is married, and all three are living away. Personal comment: I think that today’s students have more pressure on them now than students did years ago. I think that school was more fun then because they had an assembly to look forward to every Friday and during lunch they had dancing. ERWIN SAPIRO -Ss;- -' JUDITH WEBBER MUSIC Just about every student was addicted to the same type of music. From this department we gained a knowledge of all kinds. Mr. Sapiro told us the following: Q. Where were you in ’62? A. I was in my 5th year of teaching as a band director and after being married for 2 years, my wife and I had a girl. Q. What are your hobbies? A. I operate a ham radio and have spoken to people in over 140 countries. I enjoy painting in a representational figure style and have paintings in New York galleries. I like photography and have taken photos for 2 books and 20 articles. I also enjoy the little things in life, like golf and fishing. 49 MARY EVERETT Department Head Home Economics For a lot of students, home economics was the high point of their day. They enjoyed preparing themselves for the domestic portion of their lives. The feelings of Judith Siccama were heard: Q. Where were you in '62? A. I had just finished college at the University of Vermont and worked at Montpelier, Vermont at a youth extension job until I came to EHHS in 1968. Q. What are your hobbies? A. Along with making the clothes and quilting projects, I work with a 4-H club and get involved in church organizations. And after a long, hard day I like to unwind by reading in the bathtub. Q. Do you have any children that go to school, and since you are a teacher do they ask for your help with their homework? A. I have one daughter in the 4th grade who asks for only normal amounts of help. Personal Comment: My job is my life. Aside from taking a year off to have a child, I taught for 18 years. After all these years, I would like to teach privately. 50 EDWARD KISHFY Dept. Head ARTHUR CHESHIRE JOHN RANK Industrial Arts Everyone enjoys the feeling of satisfaction when they've done something themselves, these teachers greatly promoted the good feeling. Victor Miller told us: Q. Where were you in '62? A. In 1962 I was teaching at another school. Q. What do you do during the 15 minute break? A. During the break, I eat my lunch because that's the only time they give me. Q. What are your hobbies? A. Besides teaching wood shop, I like to do wood carvings. I also enjoy doing watercolor paintings. Personal comment: The reason the students enjoy woodshop is because it gives them a chance to work at their own pace while doing something they like. 51 Physical Education The Easties sat behind desks for most of the school day, therefore it was necessary to get the blood moving and keep in shape by going to gym one or two times a week. Ralph Castellon gives his opinion: Q: Where were you in 1962? A: I began teaching in 1961 so I was just starting to feel comfortable with my job. Q: What are some of your hobbies? A: I like to bowl. I also enjoy fishing and boating. Q: How do you like the daily atmosphere of the school? A: I really enjoy seeing the students every day. Personal Comment: I enjoy seeing the kids develop with the varsity sports.

They were always there to get every activity off the ground, and it took a great deal of time and hard work. Although they deserved it millions of times, we never really thanked them. And that's what we'd like to do now. to let them know how grateful we really are. We set aside this page for them in our yearbook as a token of our deepest appreciation. Mrs. Travisano, Mrs. Shoemaker, and Mr. Borelli, Thank-you. Senior Executive Board Our Executive Board was a group of some of the most dedicated Easties. They cared about what happened to our class and were willing to work for its benefit. The Magazine Drive was one of the biggest tasks, and many were involved. Mugs with the Yellow jacket emblem were given out as incentives to those who sold $50.00 or more. All decisions were made democratically, with one vote per person. Topics were discussed fully, and sometimes turned into debates. This is just another way the Easties 'TOOK IT TO THE LIMIT' Harry Borelli.

Soon after the school year started, the students received the class rings they had ordered last year. The popular quote of the day was “turn my ring! . The biggest event in 1980 for the junior class was their prom. The prom, held at Restland Farms, the afterprom, and the prom picnic gave the juniors an exciting but tiring time. In order to raise money for the prom and future events planned by the class, a photographer was hired to take pictures of the students. A percentage of the money raised went into the class' treasury. The juniors were very active and spent alot of time preparing for their final year at East Haven High and their futures. juniors Juniors Juniors JUNIOR CLASS ADVISORS: William lovanna.

The freshmen students attended their new schedule of classes, while they tried to become acquainted with the surroundings. As several weeks passed they became more at ease with their teachers, classes, and the rules and regulations of East Haven High. The first election of class officers held in the High School for the class of '83 resulted with Paul Rominacci as president, Patty Hennessey as vice-president, Lori Mennone as secretary, Gloria Morello as treasurer, and David Brennan as historian. The freshmen class began their fund-raising efforts with bake sales. This was just the beginning of their preparations for the remainder of their high school years. Pioneer Staff LAYOUT EDITORS C.

Albinger. M. Pelligrino. J. Fox. M. Ferrara On May 8, 1979, the 1980 Pioneer Staff was formed. The staff, made up of seniors, juniors, and one sophomore, began to form a book that would alter our lives for the next fourteen months. On May 18. the staff attended a conference in Meridan, Ct. Here we learned about copy, color, and covers. Leaving the conference we had 1001 ideas to make our book better. During the summer we began to sell ads to area businesses. Also during the summer, a major decision, that of the theme, was made by the staff. The actual putting together of the book could now begin. Once back in school our long, hard work began. Doing layouts, typing copy, and taking pictures consumed most of our time. Deadlines always waiting to be met, we pushed ourselves to work until the job was done, the last layout drawn, the last picture labeled, the last word typed. We could never have finished the book if it wasn't for the determination and perseverance of our advisor, Mr. Frank Meoli. Through it all we feel that we have successfully put together a book that shows the many different aspects of the Class of 80 . COPY EDITORS A. Martino. C. Buck 131 STUDENT LIFE EDITORS D. Pyne. L.

Physical Education Club The Physical Education Club was formed fifteen years ago with fourteen male members. Since it's beginning, the club has grown to become the largest organization in the school with the 1979-1980 membership rising to 254, with half of its members being girls. Although the club's original purpose was to motivate interest among the students in physical education as a career, the purpose has grown with the membership. Today, the club is involved in many activities which are both scholastically and athletically oriented. Promoting physical fitness and involvement in sports activities makes up a large part of the club's functions. But. another purpose is the involvement in the community. This goal is reached by holding fundraising drives for worthy causes. The most recognized of these fundraising projects is the annual Sports Marathon. This year, under the motto, Helping the Handicapped Isn't Everything, It's the Only Thing , the money raised went to United Cerebral Palsy. The club publishes a monthly newsletter to keep all of it's members informed of the club's activities. A volleyball tournament was held in the early part of the year. Each class had several teams that participated. The senior team. The The's won the final game. Club members also attended a professional basketball game in New York. To be eligible for the trip, each member had to reach a certain goal in candy sales. While involving students in pleasurable sport activities, the P. E. Club is a charitable organization which helps its members to realize the needs of those around them. Freshmen members: S. Amarante, F. Annunziato. P. Blakeslee. J. Bittner. N. Bottone, D. Brennan. C.

Club members experienced Spanish food by having a Spanish Cooking Day. They cooked many Spanish dishes like paiella (rice and seafood) and arroz con polio (rice and chicken). The Spanish Club took their annual trip to New York City where they dined at a Spanish restaurant. To sponsor the trip the club had held bake sales. At the end of the year, the Spanish Club members attended the International Dinner given for all the language clubs. Latin Club Latin is a very hard subject to study and the members of this club not only studied it but they also enjoyed it. They realized it as something to be admired and respected, not feared. It was a new club but none the less left on impact on the school. They held afterschool meetings to decide their activities. Fund-raisers were held to raise money for field trips.

The members of this committee worked their hardest to make the evening a complete success. The girls who took the responsibility for the night to come off well were co-chairpersons Donna Leeper and Lynn Pellegrino. The committee was subdivided into the following groups: Bids and Favors, Decorating, Band, and Photography. 136 French Club The French Club consisted of a group of young people together to share a common interest. In Canada, French is spoken quite frequently. As neighbors we should also know the language. Our French scholars knew this and tried their hardest to achieve their goal to speak French and to speak it well. A dream of the club was to visit Quebec and experience the French Culture present there. FRENCH CLUB B Cappelli- President. L. Thompson-V. President. E. Wooley- Secretary Second Row: Mr DeStefanis.

A course was offered during the day for full credit and after school the students operated the store. All involved were interested in the business world and learning how to get ahead. Under the supervision of Mr Serio. DECA took numerous trips to stores and shopping malls to get a glimpse of the real world. Competitions were entered annually to compare our skills with those of other schools. Ski Club Advisor: Mr. Cohen President: Lynn Cannon The Ski Club seemed to become more popular every year. This year we had a total of fifty members Composed of both expert and novice skiers, all tried their skill out on the slopes of Sugarbush. Vermont It was the only weekend trip due to the lack of snow that season There were no serious injuries, but John Mirabelia, a senior skier, was involved in a major incident with an unknown woman which resulted in the breaking of her ski Another memorable fall that could of been tragic but wasn't was made by Sandy LimonceBi The freshmen. who was new to the sport, decided to join her cousin. Paul Coleman, at the top of the longest run She found it most difficult to get down, although she did find a way- face-down at a quite rapid-speed-leaving mittens and goggles behind. After a tough day of skiing all headed back to the hotel for a hot meal. Then it was back to the rooms to relax Some went straight to bed and others amused themselves with a game of backgammon. All had a good time and didn't want to leave. DECA OFFICERS (L to R): K Langella (Treasurer), P. Barbieri (Recording Sec). M. Siminauski (Vice Pres). D. Langello (Pres ). N. Marinuzzi (Sec).

Their Christmas Concert consisted of several carols sung by the whole group, with a few special numbers reserved for the special chorus. The Spring concert involved not only a wide selection of songs, but also a musical skit.

They learned and practiced the elements of gymnastics, while using the facilities located in the school. They worked out to keep in shape and at the same time enjoyed themselves. The girls had a variety of equipment to choose from, like the uneven and parallel bars, the balance beam, and the horse. It was an activity that all who were engaged in enjoyed.

They did everything from delivering film projectors to laminating and mounting pictures. The A.V. Club took pride in their computer system. It provided extensive information to students on potentail careers and colleges. A.V. Club members received the self-satisfying feeling of helping other people. MEDIA CENTER ASSISTANTS V Piasecki.

Exceptional students, after being auditoned, met with students from other schools to learn from each other. They received a much more advanced education than they could have without this program. The participants met each afternoon in a New Haven building, where they shared a love of music, dance, theatre, and visual arts. A.v. CLUB F. Mills, D. Laudano. B. Higgins Media Center Aides The students who served as Media Center Aides did a great service for our class. They were always there in the center for whoever needed their help, whether it was in finding a book or making copies of information. Often, teachers brought their classes down to do research and the aides were very much in demand. They not only showed students where the books they needed were, but they also taught them how to use the card catalogues. The Media Center Aides gained a huge sense of responsibility Student Council SENIOR MEMBERS S Amento. P Barbieri. M Barthelemy. D Bertier. C Buck. L Cannon. P. Carbone, S. Compitello. C. Condon, D.

The club consisted of one hundred or more hardworking, dedicated students. The advisors, officers and club members all do more than their share to make all the club activities work out successfully. The club had many fund raisers such as a peanut sale, bake sales and dances. Also present were community projects like the Red Cross Blood Mobile, which had been one of the clubs most important activities. The club helped also with various things directly related to the school. They did the reading of the morning announcements and conducted the poll concerning the breakfast and lunch programs. The club's purpose is to develop the students' organization and leadership abilities, to improve the community-school relations among all factions throughout the system, all of which have been successfully done.

Ahern Yale Model United Nations Sponsored annually by Yale University, the Model United Nations gives area high school students valuable experience in the deliberation of matters of international concern. Area high schools send delegates to represent a particular country. In February of this year, five East Haven High School students representing Ireland, attended the Yale Model United Nations. The students were responsible for writing resolutions which were debated by various committees. These bills were then either accepted or rejected. By participating in the Model United Nations, the students became more familiar with the workings of the United Nations. MODEL CONGRESS M. Foley. J. Crescenti. M. Conway. A. D'Aniello Missing. J.

During December 7 through 9 of 1979, five East Haven students attended the Model Congress in North Haven. Some of these students had previous experience in participating in the Model Congress. The delegates were asked to submit bills or resolutions that were defended or opposed in their respective committees. The students gain valuable experience and also learned of Congress' workings. u i Stag© Band Tim Henley. Kevin Longabardi. Ben Purcell, Scott Lawler, Ed Lyon, Nora Roche, Lisa Valente, Allan Carrano.

Even before the Christmas season, the band could be heard playing at our football games. Several times during the football season they held rotating band meetings where they practiced formations for half-time. The band looked forward every year to visiting and playing in another state As freshman they went to Washington D.C.. when they were sophomores it was Nashville Tennessee, and junior year. Florida. Senior year the band trip was to Kings Dominion in Virginia. Stage Band Advisor Erwin Sapiro The Stage Band consists of sixteen members, all who play a jazz instrument. This select group of musicians has traveled throughout the country with the marching band. They performed and were judged at Disney World. Florida and received a Bronze plaque in Nashville. Tennessee The stage band is a group of very dedicated members who only practice after school, in their spare time. The biggest advantage to the members is that they get alot of experience playing for the public as professionals T45 Pom-Pom Girls (I to R) K. Appicelli. L. Provo. N. Norwood. J. Fox. C.

Student Council members decorated the gym with hearts, flowers, and paper streamers. By eight o'clock, with the aid of flashing lights supplied by the disc jockey, the room was filled with a disco atmosphere. The one hundred and fifty students who attended, enjoyed dancing popular line dances like the Bus Stop and other disco dances. Not only did everyone dance, but they spent alot of time talking with each other. When the dance came to an end. those who attended were tired but glad they had come. 149 A Night To Remember The evening of April 27, 1979 was one that the class of 1980 will never forget. This was the evening of our Junior Prom. At eight o'clock 150 couples assembled at the Annex Y.M.A. Club in New Haven. Everyone was dressed for the occasion and many pictures were taken. There was an endless amount of socializing, as well as eating and dancing. At ten o'clock the anticipation began to rise. The court was announced in ascending order: Antoinette D'Aniello and Butch Getner, Roberta Muro and Paul Canavan, Ann Marie Levatino and Frank Durazzo, Lisa Drolette and John Amarone. Finally the King and Queen were crowned. Chris Roche and Doreen Solaska reigned over the dance floor to our theme Always and Forever . The Prom was over at one o'clock but our night was not yet completed. The After Prom was held at the Our Lady of Pompeii Church hall. Couples later met at houses and restaurants for breakfast and then for an all-day picnic. Our advisors and chairpersons Paula Barbieri and Lynn Bufano worked very hard for this evening which proved very enjoyable to everyone. It was a night to remember-Always and Forever. 150 Halloween 79 October 31 1979 wasn't like that of any other year for those of us at East Haven High. A festive dance sponsored by the Student Council wos held in the gym. At eight o'clock dozens of students appeared, edger to dance the night away. Some were really filled with the spirit of the event, ond dressed for the occosion. The costumes ranged from funny to scory. ond were enjoyed by all. The dance was a tremendous success and the Student Council benefited greatly. flNLlRu W r ri n r s 152 Drama Club East Haven High was lucky enough to possess many talented people. This was reflected through our Drama Club. This year the club performed a Neil Simon play, “God's Favorite”. Auditions were held for a week and the end result was eight proud and happy performers, along with a hardworking crew. The play, a two act comedy was performed in March. The story revolved around a self-made man who was being tested by God, and his reaction to it. The play turned out to be a success, we were grateful to have such a dedicated group who took it to the limit. DRAMA CLUB Front Row:(I to R): K. longobardi. J. Kenyon. D. Englehardt, D. Sepold. F.

Piasecki On Saturday, November 18, 1979, the East Haven girls met the girls from Branford at Branford High School for the second annual Pow-derpuff Football Game. In an extremely rough game. East Haven proved itself superior by a score of 24-22. Co-Captain Cindy Esposito ran back an interception in the second quarter and this proved to be a key play in the game. Co-Captain Sue Crisafi also put in a stand out performance at quarterback. The girls were well-coached by Mr. Lucibello. 156 Easties Get Psyched To Beat Branford PEP RALLY We waited since September for this night. When it finally arrived the excitement and spirit were dt their peaks. This was the night of our Pep Rally. The eve of the annual Thanksgiving game, where East Haven and Branford battled to be best. Almost everyone was involved in the rally. The cheerleaders were busy urging on all who came to enjoy the festivities. The band provided a good source of entertainment. Trumpets were blaring out charges to fill all Eas-ties with spirit. A football captain was interviewed to see how the team felt about the big game. The Majorettes, Color-guard, and Pom Pom girls all gave tremendous performances. The Pep Rally surely succeeded in making us want a victory, and we got one. 160 Honors And A wards (L to R): T.

The biggest win occurred against Derby. It had been twelve years since East Haven won at Derby, but this changed when quarterback Mike Luzzi hit Anthony Gambardella with a 37 yard touchdown pass with 44 seconds remaining in the game. The defense received super efforts from Mike Gargano and Jim Pyne. The Easties also became the first team to beat Hand of Madison in consecutive years when Pat Gallagher kicked a 25 yard field goal to give East Haven a 9-7 victory. Again on Thanksgiving, East Haven defeated arch rival Branford, 19-6. Steve Kluth, Mike Luzzi and Ken Duell were a terrific 1-2-3 punch. Kluth caught 3 passes for 170 yards, 2 touchdowns, and was also awesome on defense. Duell ran for 84 yards with 1 touchdown. Against North Haven, Sean Sisson had 4 interceptions. The offense was led by Mike Luzzi, Jeff Maffeo, and Steve DeSena (5 passes for 87 yards). Nineteen Seniors including the 3 cdptains. Jeff Maffeo, Mike Gargano, and Sean Sisson proved to be outstanding for Coach Andrew D'Amato. Honors received for the season: Captain Jeff Maffeo was named to the All-Housatonic Team.

History repeated itself and the Easties were shut out 7-0. The shutout was not the only loss the Booters were to suffer. Marco Benciverga injured his knee and would be sidelined for five games. The Varsity Team, composed mainly of seniors and sophomores, battled against Shelton in their Housy League opener. The game proved to be quite exciting but the Easties were missing an offensive punch. Pete Picone celebrated his birthday with two goals. East Haven's only scoring. The following game the Easties lost to Amity 3-0 in the pouring rain. The Easties's next game was their first home game. It was a warm day at Crisafi field and Yellowjackets faced one of the best teams in the state. A constant attack and a well fortified defense kept the team in the game, but Cheshire proved too strong and Easties were beaten 4-1 The Easties were shut out three times in a row before finally registering a goal against Lyman Hall. John Murphy and Anasone Noras-ing scored goals in their 8th loss of the season. The second round started with East Haven losing 6-2 to Amity. In their next game, our offense registered shots on goal, but none found the back of the net. Chesire proceeded to make the Booters another stepping stone First Row: Pete Picone, Joe laniello.

Everyone that is but Chuck Schlegel, goalie and captain of the Jackets . After letting up an early first period goal. Chuck turned on the juice and heated up the whole field. Schlegel stopped Sheehan on three penalty shots, an awe inspiring performance. With six seconds left in the match Marco Bencivenga stepped to the penalty line, this was it. The Easties had their best player on the line, and a chance to tie a game or maybe win. On a miraculous save the Yellowjackets dreams were shattered and Sheehan walked away with a 1-0 victory. The season was coming to a close quickly, Dan Nardini's number came up, it was his day. Nardini had a personal vendetta to settle with North Branford, the school he had trans-fered from. Although Danny and Marco turned in excellent performances, the Easties lost 3-0. John Mirabella learned exactly how tough a game defense is. North Haven the most potent offensive team in the league pummeled the Eastie defense. Mirabella's legs haven't been the same since. It would have been nice to see a “1 in the win column, but the season, was a success anyhow. Joe laniello, a first year player, picked up the game with great intensity. Natalile Di-diano a seasoned player, led the team the first half of the season, but near the end only a tired and dissapointed look showed on his face. Craig Stoddard kept a low profile on the team but on the pitch, Stoddard was all business. Next year, maybe next year. John Murphy John Mirabella 169 r' First Row Linda Boyton. Margaret Walker- Capt.

East Haven had one of the largest girl's swim teams in the state. The High School team swims from September to November, competing in fourteen meets. For some girls, the season isn't over in November, they go on to swim for the Big Blues. In all, they swim for ten months a year and thirty meets. The team had an extremely successful season, ending with a 9-3 record. Head Coach Louis Anastasio said, The 1979 team was one of the best teams around, and not only in the league, but one of the better in the state. Some of the times and records of the swimmers were comparatively higher than college seniors. The captains Diane West. Anne Coyle, and Margaret Walker proved to be a help throughout the season.

The captains elect were three year member Donna Leeper, as training captain, and Lori Gleason as fund raising captain, also a three year member. This idea of two captains was a change among many. The coach Ms. Nettie Caswell decided to unify the team by combining the traditional junior varsity with the varsity team. A strict demerit system was also instated to inforce the much needed discipline for a varsity team. The team held practices twice a week all summer long on the East Haven Green. Another change came about when the girls approached the fall season. Coach Caswell felt she had to resign, much to the team's regrets. Captain Donna Leeper took over the squad very successfully until the girls received their new coach Ms. Debbie Cunningham, who continued the success of Coach Caswell throughout the long season for the cheerleaders. 178 CAROLINE VITALE DOREEN PYNE 179 First Row-P DeLucio.

The East Haven Yellowjackets opened the 1979-1980 Basketball Season with high hopes. Hopes for what? For a Housatonic League Title and a State Championship. These hopes seemed realistic due to the fact that the team lost no players to graduation. The Easties breezed through their Housy schedule. The outstanding offensive abilities of Joe Carfora and Lee Schatzlein, along with the tremendous defensive ability of Chris Roche led the Easties through the first half of the season. The team's only flaw was a loss to New Canaan in the Golden Eagle Christmas Tournament. A last second shot in overtime proved to be the fatal blow. The second half of the season turned out to be rerun of the first. A real ho-hummer. The shining stars: Lee Schatzlein- his torrid shooting made him All-Housy for the second year in a row. Sal Popolizio- broke out of a slump and started scoring in double figures consistently. Steve DeSena- two big games and the Cous was back in action. Sean Sisson- the assists started pouring in. until the ankle gave out. Tom Houde- the ankle, another injury. The Easties had more players out of uniform than in. Matt Lefevre- took over the ball club with injuries to Sisson and Luzzi. Mike Luzzi- the knee gave out again, but Mike was back again to shoot his 25 foot bombs. We heard from Joe and Chris in the first half, but what about the second? Joe Carfora- dominated the boards, the girls, the cameras, everything. All-Housy, get psyched. Chris Roche- how does 3 points in 3 games sound? How about 16 in one half, a warm-up for Branford. The Easties won the Housy title on February 21, against arch-rival Branford, 81-50. Post season honors were: Carfora and Schatzlein- All-Housatonic Team, and All-New Haven County Team. Carfora was voted All-State, while to everyone's surprise Schatzlein received only an Honorable Mention. Chris Roche received Honorable Mention for the Housatonic League. 180 jj :: photos by Peter R. Hvizdak, James Meehan, and Steve Silk 182 (------------------------------------ II Once again the Yellowjackets found themselves going into the state tour-nament. with the hopes of bringing home a championship. As the team went through the six games it seemed that every player had win on his mind and proved it by contributing their best. It's the most unselfish team I've ever had the privilege of coaching. They're unbelievable. There's so much togetherness. Those were the words of Coach Frank Crisafi that led the Easties through their season and guided them in the State Tournament. Once again the Easties found themselves in the same position as a year ago. They were at Sheehan High facing the Indians of North Haven. Unlike the close game of last year the mighty Easties proved their might by running the Indians right out of the gym. Joe Carfora, Lee Schatzlein, Chris Roche, and Sal Popolizio made the bulk of the final score (96-65) by scoring 25, 18, 16, and 15 points respectively. Steve DeSena, although hampered by a bad back, showed his important as a sixth man scoring six points and handing out three assists. Despite playing one of their worst games of the season, outrebounded and often outhustled, the Easties survived the scare of the Chargers of An-sonia. The big three, Chris Roche- 16, Lee Schatzlein- 20, and Joe Carfora-24, added their usual portion of the scoring with a combination of . Junior point guard Mike Luzzi was responsible for getting the ball to the big guys, he came away with seven key assists. The Chargers were led to be hopeful because of the Easties letting them control the offensive boards (29-13). The Easties, rejuvenated in the final quarter, were led by the joint efforts of Lee Schatzlein (10 pts.), and Joe Carfora (8 Pts.). With rive second remaining Lee Schatzlein became the only player to foul out of a game all season. Humiliating Branford became a ritual for the Easties as they ripped apart their Housatonic foes for the third time. The ball club came out of the locker room smokin' playing the best half of basketball Branford Coach Tom Murray has ever witnessed. After the first quarter the Easties led 20-8, bringing it to 46-26 by half time. The Easties sizzled the nets with their 70% shooting from the floor throughout the game. Lee Schatzlein, shooting 87% (13 for 15) from the floor, scored 31 points. Saturating the crowd were college e, coaches who were left shaking their ■-! A continued on page 183 E.H. E.H. E.H. E.H.

Chris Roche, although scoring only nine points, put on a clinic with his pin-point passing. The iceman , Sal Popolizio's 70% shooting from the perimeter destroyed Branford's zone defense completely. Joe Carfora burned the nets for 17 points including 8 of 11 from the floor. The seventh of March was a record-breaking night for East Haven's sports world. Not only was it the first time the Yellowjackets got past the quarter-finals since 1967, but it was also a personal honor for Lee Schatzlein as he became only the third male to go over the 1000 point plateau. Fairfield Prep broke away to an early 7-0 lead in the first few minutes of the game. Their lead was short lived as the Easties bounced back to take the lead 21-20 at the end of the first quarter. The game then continued to be a nip and tuck battle through to half time. The Easties came out of the locker room with the idea of ending the Quinnipiac gym jinx. (The Easties had never won a game at Quinnipiac.) The Easties then opened up a nine point lead going into the fourth quarter. All through the game it was Lee Schatzlein who provided the Easties with his instant offense. But in the fourth quarter it was the outside shooting of two Junior guards, Luzzi and Popolizio, that led the Easties to the Class L semi-finals. Schatzlein finished with 27 points, including a perfect 11 for 11 from the free-throw line. Luzzi ended with 10 points and also handed out 8 assists. Popolizio pulled away with 15 points. The Yellowjackets came into this game with East Catholic knowing that if they won they would have a shot at the title. The Easties took control from the opening whistle, leading 15-10 at the end of the first quarter. Never again did they trail in this game us they went on to win 70-56. The Easties total ly dominated the whole game. Controlling the boards were Schatzlein, Roche, and Carfora with the guards Luzzi, Popolizio, DeSena, and Sisson breaking the full court press of East Catholic. Carfora finished with 26 points and 14 rebounds while Schatzlein ended up with 22 points and 7 rebounds. J photos by James Meehan, Kirby Kennedy. Ralph Prete Sr 183 First row: K. Burns.

Trailing by three points with five minutes remaining in the game, the Easties exploded with the offense they needed from Crisafi, Burns, Laudano, Jr. Margret Sheades, Fr. Tracy Finer and Soph. Rhonda Ostrom. The Easties also beat arch rival Branford twice during the season. Crisafi had two very exciting moments. In the first game of the season.

Co-Captains were senior 4 year members Mark DiLungo and Joe Folio Assistant Captain was junior Joe Merola who will continue the outstanding leadership in the following year. The team had many good games this year. Although they lost 1-0 to league power Cheshire, the Easties gave a tremendous effort. Senior goalie Ed Lyon was unstoppable in the nets. The Easties then routed Maloney 14-1. In that game DiLungo had one of his 4 hat tricks of the year, junior defenseman Lou Pane had 5 points, and senior Dan Nardini had 4 points.

Although their record was 4-9-1, the team showed remarkable improvement from the beginning of the season. At the start of the season, most of the underclassmen did not have any competitive experience; but through hard work and determination, they worked to make the swimming season an enjoyable one. Coach Lou Anastasio was very pleased with the improvement and dedication of all the swimmers. The team of 16 members was led by Captain Anthony Gambardella, who broke the school record in the breast-stroke with a time of 1:08.2. Seniors Gary DePalma, Danny Laudano, and Tom Casey were all-around swimmers for the team. Junior Mike Narracci tied the school record in the 50-yard free style with a time of 24.2. He also broke the school record in the 500-yard free style with a time of 5:17.3. Both Gambardella and Narracci qualified for the State Trials. 190 First Row: J. Parise. M Brown. S Sisson. J. Ardito.

M Lucibello (Coach) This year's baseball team will be looking forward to history repeating itself. The team hopes to match last years terrific season. The team led by Captains John Ardito and Art Inglese should be a top contender for the Housatonic League title. The coaches, Mr. William Marioni and Mr. Michael Lucibello will rely heavily on the ace pitching of three seniors, Joe Parise, Joe laniello, and John Ardito. The infield will set up with Art Inglese at first Joe Parise at second, Mark Brown at third and Jr. Mike Luzzi returning at short stop. The outfield will be lead by Centerfielder Sean Sisson with Juniors Steve DelRocco and Pete Pi-cone on his sides. The Easties have set high goals for the ’80' season and plan on taking the season as long into June as possible. Top to Bottom Sean Sisson, Mark Brown, Joe Parise Joe laniello 19 Eight HLettebieii The middle of March traditionally marks the beginning of the boys track season. Under the captainship of Scott Hennessey, Jeff Maffeo. and Anthony Gambardella, the team will compete in approximately fifteen meets. Practice will take place every day until the end of June for most, but some may qualify for the State Open Championships. When Mr. Cheshire, coach of the team, was asked his opinion he said, This year's team will be as good as last year's, even though it is low on depth. I think they will do well in the States and maybe make the top ten. The 1979 team placed 12th in the state. This year there will be eight returning lettermen and much new talent.

Coach Al Carbone said, as the season progressed the team improved. In the beginning of 1979 there were 25 new performers, this year they are more experienced and I expect them to do well. Since they only lost five seniors to graduation in 1979, the team's captains believe they will have a rewarding season. First Row (I to R) sitting: S. Montesanto. C. Salvati. D. West. D. Cote, A.

Outfielders are Cathy Burns, Lou Anne Laudano, and Paula Barbieri. The Easties will also have a strong pitching staff consisting of sophomores Kelly Bentley and Rhonda Ostrom. The pitching should prove to be the critical position during the season. Sophomore Debbie Otto who showed a great deal of ability last season will again be the Eastie catcher. Karen DiNicola. also a sophomore will play either in the outfield or at third base. The girls are looking forward to a very successful season. Lee Schatzlein and Anthony Torre will prove to be the strong points of the boy's tennis team. During the seventy-nine season, Lee and Tony lost only twice in doubles matches. Due to the flood control renovation of the Farm River, the team intends to practice at the Colony Beach Club courts. At the start of the 79' season, 20 boys tried out; only 12 made the team. The team holds practices five days a week under the supervision of Coach Mike Siclari. The team's outlook on the 80' season is, We have an excellent chance to make the states. First Row: M. Narracci.

Five of the boys were chosen after a week-long tryout at the end of March. Junior Scott Lawlor was elected captain. This varsity team does not require a large number of members; therefore, only three alternates were chosen. The team will begin their tri-matches in April, competing in ten matches altogether. The five home matches will take place at the Ailing Memorial Golf Course. The team is a young one with only one three-year member, Scott Lawlor. Don Acerra, last year's number one man, is intended to lead the team again this year. 203 Dave Augustine- Coach Scott Lawlor- Captain ,------------------STATE After the twenty-five games it took the Easties to get there, they decided they weren't going to let the title slip away Before a jam-packed crowd of over three-thousand, the Easties proved their supremacy over all. Bul-lard-Havens jumped out to an early 15-9 lead, but the Easties dealt with it be scoring six consecutive points. At the closing of the first quarter the game was tied, thanks to four free-throws by Joe Carfora and a corner jumper that belonged to Sean Sisson. Sisson, with his devastating defense proved his importance to the team. Going into the locker room the Easties trailed by one. 27-26 Chris Roche who scored 12 points in the third quarter, put the Easties in the lead 47-45. going into the fourth quarter. Chris scored most of his points on turn around jumpers. The game stayed even through the fourth quarter and with the score tied 55-55. BuHard-Havens had the ball with 2:04 remaining. They held the ball for the last shot, only to miss a 20-footer at the buzzer - OVERTIME! The Yel-lowjackets never trailed in Overtime. Lee Schatzlein scored the first point on a free throw and Mike Luzzi followed with a pair of free throws to put East Haven ahead by three. 58-55 Bullard-Havens hoop cut the margin to 58-57 Then Roche hit a jumper to put the Easties ahead 60-57. After a Luzzi foul shot (61-57) the game came to a perfect story book ending. The hero'' Roche hit on a pair of free throws to lead the Easties to a 63-57 State Championship. Coach Crisafi. who was carried on his teams shoulders after the game said, Roche was just super, just super We certainly couldn't have won without him. That, they couldn't.

We feel that we have captured some of the finer moments of the class. It is very unlikely that the high school experiences of over four hundred seniors would be identical. To the best of our abilities we feel we have created a book that each and every reader could view as personal and relevant. And now for fhe difficult part. How does one properly thank people for something which is priceless? To Bruce Dupuis, our Josten's American Yearbook Company representative who was so very helpful and understanding, we thank him for his patience and assistance during difficult times We would like to acknowledge our school photographers, Mr. Ralph Prete and Mr. Ralph Prete Jr. whose photographic abilities are evident in both the senior portraits and candid shots that appear in the book. Thank you to Mr. Sal DeRosa who also contributed senior portraits. Also to Dr. Charles Schlegel. Kathy Twohill, Debbie Cote, Cheryl Salvati, and Mr. Frank Meoli who contributed photos that were successfully used throughout the book. We would also like to thank the students who contributed artwork to the book. Clare Schlegel did the caligraphy in the student life section. Also, Ed Lyon and Peggy Mansfield worked on the cartoon figures for the opening section. The 1980 Pioneer Staff deserves special thanks and credit. Much time and effort is needed to put together a good yearbook This year's staff made many personal sacrifices and really put their all into the book. It was their concern, hard work, and determination that made the book the success we feel it is. There aren't enough words to express our sincere and deepest appreciation to our tremendous advisor and good friend Mr. Frank Meoli. He helped us set high standards for our book and then showed us how to achieve them, overcoming many obstacles we were to encounter We are deeply indebted for his pafience, understanding and love for us and the book. Through his caring, Mr. Meoli made the experience of being on a yearbook staff a worthwhile one Take care of this book, it will be your friend for years to come. Thanks to all!!
