To the Class of 1981, As you look through this yearbook in years to come, I hope you remember your time at Hoosac with fondness. This small community has tried to give each and everyone of you not only a quality edu- cation but also a personal one. What you have learned about your- selves, your strengths and your weaknesses, should make you better and happier adults. As I complete my fifth and final year as Headmaster I look back on years of enjoyment knowing all of you and, hopefully, helping you mature. I extend to you my personal congratulations for a job well done and wish you all well in the years to come. As an educator, I rarely see how our products turn out—we are stuck in time. New faces, new names march past us year after year. We can only hope that the effort we expend on your behalf will bear fruit for you later on. I have faith you, the Class of 1981, will prosper. 3

James P. Beckford, Headmaster Alfred I. Murray, Assistant Headmaster DEDICATION The 1981 Owl is dedicated to Mr. James P. Beckford and Mr. Alfred I. Murray, both of whom are leaving Hoosac this year. Mr. Beckford has been at the helm of the Hoosac community for five years as Headmaster, and through his efforts has managed to keep the ship afloat through sometimes perilous waters. During the years 1976 -1981 he chose to deal with all - students, faculty and staff - as human beings and not as mere cogs in the School machinery. His positive attitude, flexible approach to leadership, as well as his humour were appreciated by all. Mr. Alfred I. Murray, Hoosac’s beloved assistant headmaster for four years, has tirelssly given his time and understanding to everyone. Students and parents especially, appreciated his extraordinary willingness to lend a helping hand, whether in an emergency or for foutine needs. His cheerfulness, ready wit and unassuming manner have won our hearts. i 2
