For Reference Not to be taken from this library Jonathan Dayton Regional High School Springfield, New Jersey 07081 Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars. - Henry van Dyke There is but one person within the hallowed halls of Jonathan Day- ton, who has dedicated herself as a student, teacher, and administra- tor. She has been an inspiration, leader, advisor, and friend to the many students who, as ourselves, have laid the cornerstones of our lives here at Dayton. Therefore, with deep admiration, we, the Class of 1979, dedicate this Regionalogue to Miss Anne Romano. 4 IDIIIRIECTCIRS STINT IfiEIN 39 prodvcticms 79 STARS 109 PAST FIEIR FCIRMAIMCES 10 1 1 15 As you approach the end of your senior year and set forth to achieve success in the formal atmosphere of higher education or to go directly into other fields of endeavor I feel certain that you are ready to meet the challenge.

It is one of the few Eng- lish Departments to have a structured composition program. In previous years, the department required that the students write three compositions per marking period followed by revisions. This year in each marking period there must be two compositions with revision and the option of one without. The composition without revision would be in the form of a book report or an essay test. The change in policy made it pos- sible to give the teachers greater flexi- bility in their assignments. In addition to the departmental com- position program the vocabulary pro- gram has continued. The major objec- tive of this program, which had been instituted by the Board of Education, helps to expose students of all levels to a greater number of words.

Right now they have pushed a button History is the witness of the times, the torch of life, the messenger of antiquity. — Cicero With a very well educated staff and a highly motivated student body, there is a great deal of stability in the Social Studies Department. It has courses on every level from advanced placement to readiness, and on every topic from Barbarism to Humanism to Sociology. Within these courses the department stresses the instruction of research skills and study habits. In addition to the established prac- tices, there were many innovations. By rewriting and reorganizing courses, the of truth, the life of memory, the teacher (De Oratore) department has made them more perti- nent and challenging for the student. It consolidated courses to compensate for shrinking enrollment. The You and the Law course is an example of this con- solidation. The course was enriched by the study of politics and government which made the course more demand- ing academically. Through its course offerings, instructors and curriculum review the Social Studies Department has made the Social Sciences more meaningful to the student. Lori Kubach seems to find something humorous in Mr. Nash ' s survey. 23 Mathematics possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty . . . Bertrand Russel The Study of Mathematics The Mathematics Department, geared for the individual student, is very innovative. It was one of the first departments in the state to institute a computer science program, and a college preparatory math program allowing three years instead of two for the teaching of Algebra and Geometry. Computers, an important part of our future, were instituted to prepare stu- dents for the business world. Although there is a movement to consolidate courses, because of the decline in enrollment and the size of staff, there is a wide variety of courses from Cal- culus to General Math and Statistics. New equipment for the department includes a set of calculators for the calculus students ' use. The Mathematics Department continues to be progressive and beneficial to the student body of Dayton. Mike Steinberg waits patiently to run his program on the computer in Computer Science. 25 Science is organized knowledge. — Herbert Spencer Science is an important part of a high school education for it tempts the student to look beyond the tangible, strengthening his curiosity and imagination. Keeping this idea in mind the Science Department offers a variety of courses. Besides the old standards; Biology, Chemistry, and Phys- ics, there are courses such as Astrology, Botany, and Geology. For the student who excels in Chemistry, Mrs. Shanahan advises a Chem League that competes against other schools. The lighter side of Dayton ' s Science Department concerns a talented Chemistry teacher, Mr. Rollie Marionni. Mr. Marionni performs annu- ally, with the sweet smooth sounds of his delectable tenor, a concert of oldies but goodies including groovy tunes such as I ' m All Shook Up and Poison Ivy .

The Foreign Language Department has a great deal of diversity. The department tries to not only instruct the students the grammar and usage of a language, but also give the students some idea about the culture and history of the places where the language is spoken. There are six lan- guages offered by the department: Latin, Hebrew, German, French, Italian, and Spanish. All languages have a level three course with an additional level of study offered by Italian and Latin. The lan- guages that give a level five course are French, German, and Spanish. These courses also give the student the option of advanced placement in college. The department has many different opportuni- ties to suit Dayton ' s many different stu- dents.

The Physical Education department offers a diversity of activities in which the students may participate. In Gym the students may choose from a variety of team or individualized sports. By participating they can strengthen their coordination and skill in a number of athletic areas. Varsity sports allow the students to com- pete competively against other schools. The teams are run by faculty of the P.E. department with assistance coming from other departments as well. In order to please the student body, the P.E. director, Mr. Berchen, takes a poll at the end of each year asking the students for new ideas and new Varsity sports they feel Dayton should offer. The department also educates the students in a num- ber of aspects of Health. During the course of four years they will receive a general knowledge of first aid, psy- chology, human relations, drug and alcohol abuse. The final feature of the P.E. department is its Behind the wheel Drivers Education course. This course prepares the student for his driving test and enables him to receive a special permit at the age of sixteen and a half. 31 Industrial Arts ... a skill for the future. Mr. Henry Hassel Mr. Robert Lowe Mr. Edward Metz The Jonathan Dayton Industrial Arts Department is involved in encouraging student participation in a program designed to serve a dual educational pur- pose. The department seeks to augment the academic skills taught at Dayton. The department ' s variety of courses are adept at fulfilling a number of students ' short and long term goals. The students ' initial decision to participate may at first only involve the procuring of a part-time job to supplement income or the desire to prac- tice one ' s hobby. Yet, in an age of steadily rising prices, the ability to do it yourself can be of life-long assistance, as well as, the possibility that the initiation of the first steps towards a rewarding and suc- cessful career.

What ' s Cookin ' . . . Home Economics at Jonathan Day- ton offers many opportunities for learning. The program includes F oods and Nutrition, Fashion and Clothing Construction, Needlecrafts (macrame, needlepoint, crewel, etc.). Home Deco- rating, and Personal and Family Liv- ing. The Foods program begins with basic skills; then students can advance to International and Gourmet Cook- ing. Personal and Family Living is very comprehensive. It covers everything from preparing a festive holiday meal to child care, skin care, career planning and much more. Bobby Pollick, George Harbt.

To keep up with the rapid pace the Busi- ness Department at Dayton offers a vari- ety of courses with emphasis on skill and accuracy. This year ' s additions have been made in equipment, courses and staff. The new equipment is similar to that which is now found in both large and small offices with proposed acquisition of a word processing machine. The Accelerated Accounting course concentrates two years of account- ing into one. In addition to the office skills, the department offers courses to college-bound and general students.

Mr. Waller Both Mr. Albert Dorhout Mr. Jeffrey Anderson Mr. David Brodman All art is a revolt against man ' s fate. — Andre Malraux (Voices of Silence) The Fine Arts Department is divided into three sections: Vocal Music, Instrumental Music, and Art. Each of these sections enables the students to develop their talents to various levels of achievement. The Vocal Music program offers stu- dents a chance to sing and perform in a choir, to learn how to harmonize and to sight read music. It also offers a course in Music Theory which teaches the fun- damentals of reading and composing music. The emphasis of the course is to increase the awareness and interest into the various styles of music. The student musician also finds number of options here at Dayton. The performing groups include the March- ing Band, Concert Band, and Jazz Ensemble with the addition of the spe- cialized bands, such as the Saxophone Quartet and the Clarinet Choir. To give the student the extra attention neces- sary to play an instrument effectively, instrumental lessons are provided dur- ing the week. A variety of media is offered to the students enrolled in the Art program as well. A student may find his talents in clay, tempra, water colors, wood, and or pen and ink. This program is a building process by which our artists may develop their skills and individual style to a substantial degree of accom- plishment. 4 Mr. Frank Clancy Miss Marie Giannone Mr. Melvin LeFever M r.

To insure against the unauthorized removal of books and materials, the school installed new security and library card systems. A proposed improvement is the develop- ment of a Career Center to supply stu- dents with information concerning many different kinds of careers. Some of this information will be placed on Micro-Fiche along with other reference materials. Portable projectors are also available with the additional attraction of overnight loans. A gradual improve- ment of the IMC has been the removal of outdated books and research materi- als, and the replacement of them with new current materials. Mrs. Ruffley, the director of the IMC, is continually striving to make the library more informative and beneficial to the Day- ton students.

Under the inspi- rational leadership of first-year coach, Angelo Senese, the team produced many exciting moments. This squad was characterized by intense persever- ance evidenced by their strong second half play. The surprisingly strong Dayton offense, led by running backs, Larry and Robert Irene, amassed 3,000 total yards throughout the season. The rug- ged Bulldog defense was anchored by bruising linebackers, Jim Wnek, Rich Cederquist, and Co-Captain Ken Bell. Post season honors went to Co-Captain Larry Irene who received honorable mention on the All-Union County Football Squad. Coach Senese and assistants, Ed Tranchina, Bob Kozub, Bill Kindler, Rick Iacono and Rollie 1 arionni, are looking towards experi- enced Juniors, Tony Circelli and Ken Klebous to be the leaders of next year ' s team which looks promising.

It was obvious the title was earned through the dedicat n of the Bulldog harriers. The efforts of the coaches and co- captains helped the team on to victory in 1978 campaign. The coaches, Mr. Martin Taglienti and Mr. William Jones, spent long hours to improve the team, and their assistance proved to be very helpful. The leadership of Peter Keramus and Kirk Kubach served to unite the team over all obstacles. For the first year the girls ' team actively participated in the cross coun- try program. The rapid growth of the participation indicates a bright future. Louis Melkowitz and Jeff Knowles concentrate before the meet to get them ready for their long run.

In the U.C. Tournament the team itself placed fourth out of thirteen teams. Mary Jan Gagliano brought the team recognition by placing sixth with her floor routine in the tourna- ment and twelfth in vaulting in the State Sectionals. Gymnastics consists of four different exercises; vaulting, bars, beam and floor exercises. In each exercise four girls are selected to perform routines.

Building A Competitive Soccer Team Coach Vincent Ferrante conducted a rebuilding year for the Varsity Soccer Squad. The team was comprised of ten underclassmen and eight seniors. Sen- ior co-captain Dave Lauhoff and Tony Sangregorio were the mainstay of the team ' s defense. As goalkeeper. Lauhoff made many spectacular saves, while Sangregorio and Mike Meixner thwarted many downfield rallies by the opposition. Offensive punch was sup- plied by returning All-Conference member Todd Melamed and outstand- ing sophomores Don Meixner and Keith Hannigan. The team ' s fine effort was a 2-1 comeback victory over Caldwell. Although the team lost many close games. Coach Ferrante thought that the team played quite competitively against all their opponents. Ferrante also expressed optimism towards the prospect of next year ' s squad which promises to be an improved one. (L-R) Coach Ferrante. Joe Huber, Don Domaratsky, Mike Meiner. Tony Sangregorio.

Rain or shine, Dayton ' s cheerleaders are always ready to inspire the athletic teams. Our cheerleaders brighten up the games with their sunny smiles and fresh personalities. Yet, a cheerleader must do more than simply smile. A lot of time and energy must go into prepa- ration for such activities as opening games, pep rallies, and the Mr. Regional Dance. Miss Duke and Miss Epstein, the cheering coaches, make sure there is never a dull moment in the life of a cheerleader. Tension strikes as the score draws closer. Lori Soltysik reveals her concern. Homecoming Queen And Mr. Regional This fall the Varsity Cheerleaders coor- dinated the first Homecoming Week at Jonathan Dayton. The week was filled with many activities that included a suc- cessful dance, voting for candidates, a pep rally, and the traditional Thanksgiving Day Football Game. The faculty nomi- nated fourteen girls on the basis of aca- demic standards, participation in school activities, and the girl they felt would best represent our school. The coaches of all varsity sports nominated fourteen boys whom they felt excelled in a sport, showed sportsmanship at all times, and would best represent our school. From this list, the seniors voted, and the top seven girls and the top seven boys were the final candi- dates. The candidates included: Dave Lauhoff, Dean Pashian, Kirk Kubach, Albert Preziosi, Ken Bell, Margaret Gri- maldi. Sue Clarke, Barbara Bongiovanni, Maryjane Gagliano, Mary King, and Kim Walls. At the Homecoming Dance on November 17, 1978, the final voting took place after the fourteen finalists were pre- sented to the school. At the Pep Rally on the eve of the Thanksgiving Day Game, Miss Duke and Mr. Pereira presented the awards of Jonathan Dayton ' s Mr. Regional and Homecoming Queen of 1978-79, Dave Lauhoff and Sue Clarke. The Homecoming Queen was accompa- nied by the Homecoming Court which included Adriane Positan, Valerie Licausi, and Cara Novich. BOOGIE! Dave Lauhoff after receiving his Mr. Regional plaque.

Coach Ray Yanchus ' s Bull- dogs captured the Dayton ' s Christmas Tournament again led by All-Tournament players, Mike Meixner and Ed McGrady. Meixner, a tri-captain, led Bulldogs in virtually every offensive category and his 10.7 points per game were among the tops in the country. He also led the team in blocked shots and averaged 9 rebounds per game. Dave Lauhoff, another senior tri-captain, averaged 8 points per game and about 5 rebounds. McGrady, the other tri-captain, was one of the team ' s leading passers and was constantly work- ing hard. Tony Circelli, the lone junior who started regularly, played point guard and led the team in steals. Kevin Englehardt and Steve Geltman were both supersubs; Geltman because of his shooting ability, Englehardt because of his defensive skills. Tyrone Parker often sparked the team by coming off the bench and usually display- ing some dazzling moves. Bill Ventura, a junior, showed that he will be an integral part of next year ' s squad by spurring fre- quent scoring sports. Other players who saw Varsity action this year and should be key members of next year ' s team were Ken Kleobos, Craig Clickinger, Albert Gardiulo and Don Meixner. • -J J Front Row: (Left to Right) Glen Bardack, Mike Meixner, Eddie McGrady, Dave Lauhoff, Brian Silver- man.

Score!!! Miss Townsend discusses the strategy of the next play with the team This year the Girls ' Basketball Team performed admirably due to the efforts and dedication of the players and coach Miss Townsend. The team con- sisted of thirteen varsity players of whom the top seven girls rotated in and out of games. The seven lettered girls were Crickett Franklin, Mary Jane Gagliano, Michelle Gan, Kathy Clark, Kathy Gerndt, Mary King and Ellen Stieve. Talent was pretty evenly distributed among the players, but one player proved to be outstanding. During her four years on the team, Crickett Frank- lin scored one thousand points, and was the first girl to do so in Dayton ' s history. Her one thousandth point was scored at a home game against Madi- son, and she received the game ball for her splendid accomplishment. Unfortunately, the team lost a few crucial games by a small margin which removed the girls from the race for the Conference Championship. However, the team did qualify for the county tournament. From their opening game with Milburn to their final victory over Caldwell, the team did their best to rep- resent our school. ' Cricket Franklin dnbbles down court. Kathy Gerndt shoots a jump shot. The Spring Track Team works very hard under the guidance of Coaches Senese and Kozub. The long distance runners were Jeff Knowles, Jay Bruder, Kirk Kuback, and Kevin King. The sprinters were led by Captains Jeff Var- gas and Peter Keramus with Mark Meskin and Ed MacDonald competing in the part of a mile relay. The half mile was run by Keith Hannigan and David Barnes. Paul Commarato and Danny Pepe represented Dayton in the high jump and shot put respectively. As well as being a long distance runner, Jeff Knowles also pole vaulted this year. Nick Carricato distinguished himself as a hurdler. Last year, Dayton ranked second in the Suburban Conference and the team is shooting for first place this year.

GAME, SET, MATCH Coach Rick Iacono predicts a fairly good season for the Boys ' Varsity Tennis Team. Senior Gary Nestler is the person to beat for the first position in the single ' s category with junior Mark Dooley, cover- ing the second position and sophomore, Alan Berliner, for the third. Strong sup- port is expected from returning letterman Mike Clarke and Greg Wanner. James Reiner, a new recruit from Irvington and Dave Gechlik are good prospects for the team along with David Simon and Steve Warner.

Dayton ' s first Varsity Girls ' Track Team has seen the realization of their dream come true. After the years of devotion from these talented girls and their determined coaches, this winning was acknowledged as a group of excellent athletes. With combined efforts of last year ' s Union County and Suburban Conference champ. Trish Taylor, the out- standing Maria Sanino in field events, and tough competitor Kathy Kelly in the half mile, the outcome of the season should be more than pleasing. T he events to watch for skillful exhibitions are the 100, 200, and 440 runs, hurdles, relays, and field events. Promising underclassmen include Dana Levinson, Barb Taylor, Elise Ogintz, Linda Spona and Debbie Keller among other are prospects for the future. Co-captains Sue Clarke and Carol Wingard (Sub. Conf. hur- dler champ 78) having worked towards the team ' s improvements since their freshman year, leaves the team proud of their accom- plishments. Also, departing seniors. Irene Zervakos and Sue Kuperstein enhanced the team ' s success with their spirit and endur- ance. As individuals and as a whole, the Girls ' Varsity Spring m Track Team achieved sportsmanship, suc- cess and their well- deserved recognition in Jonathan Dayton.

With the nucleus of last year ' s team returning along with a number of talented underclassmen. Coach Lowe and all the others involved feel that Dayton may be the sleeper team of the Suburban Conference. The team will be looking for leadership from Senior first baseman, Dave Lauhoff, and the double-play combination of Ed Johnson and Mark D ' Agostini, all fresh from a successful Junior season. Behind the plate, talented Jim Wnek will be handling the Dayton pitchers, while Senior mound ace David Vargas and Junior Joe Policastro will be baffling opposing hitters. Return- ing lettermen, Al Proziosi and Adam Wil- liams, will help to provide a strong defense for the Bulldogs.

The choirs put on three concerts this year in Halsey Hall. Also, during the Holiday Season, the groups sang Christ- mas Carols for local organizations and traveled to New York City to sing in Houses of Worship and other places. They financed their activities with a pumpkin sale in the fall and a flower sale in the spring. All three Groups are under the direction of Mr. Albert Dorhout.

The play deals with the small town of River City, Iowa and the fast talking con-man Harold Hill who desires to establish a boys ' band in the town with the aid of his nervous side kick Marcellus. Professor Hill gets the town to purchase instruments and uni- forms for the band, and promises to give them music lessons, in spite of the fact that he knows nothing about music. Mayor Shinn distrusts Hill and sends the Board of Education to obtain them. Hill promptly side tracks the mayor, and turns the Board into a barbershop quartet. Mar- ion Paroo, the local music teacher and librarian, realizes that Hill is a sham, but she falls in love with him and works to protect his secret. Harold, in turn, falls in love with Marion and decides to remain in River City. Eventually, his secret is revealed, but the townspeople accept him because of the good things that he has done for the boys.

In September of Seventy-five, The Freshman class was barely alive, Afraid of the size, seniors, and so much more We could hardly stand waiting until year four. Our only interest; the opposite sex. Cruising the halls, what would be next? Our Freshman year brought a lot of strange things. Including Mrs. Cassak ' s ding-a-ling-lings. First trip to the bathroom we learned It ' s o.k. The next big thing was Halloween Day! ! ! ! A Smoking Lounge kept our student council busy, But left the teachers and board all in a tizzy. Everyone was saying EASY ... I guess so Little did we know both would soon go. The summer is over and all went just right, Hanging at DEERFIELD those hot summer nights. September means school and we ' re brought back to life, And this year everyone is fife . Biology brings dissecting with a whole lot more, If we could hold Al the snake it was an easy 4.0! ! School was much tougher, some said hard labor. And Jonathan Dayton welcomed Ms. Baber. Sweet-Sixteen parties were well on their way, Forty-five minute lunches, do you remember that day? The Suburban Conference our Cross Country team took, And the saying this year was C ' mon let ' s book! The first Sophomore class to have Drivers-Ed, We learned of inertia , something we dread. 164 1975 The girls had their hair all chopped in a wedge . And the boys started using their sharp Double-edge . As Juniors the school didn ' t seem quite as large, With Romano and Pereira now taking charge. Untie Rollie ' s concerts were one of a kind. He always performed around Christmas time. Our class rings arrived with 79 turns. But getting our license was our major concern. We all had high hopes about a Powder Puff game, But where did it go, and who is to blame? Fred ' s was the place where everyone met. And open-house parties . . . Will we ever forget? As for concerts, we had one they called Kinderhook , And everyone ' s still saying C ' mon let ' s book! The snow had arrived and was here all the time And all kids were saying was Oh what a crime . The Prom was approaching and that filled our mind, A date was the only thing we needed to find! The Prom was outrageous and really a blast . It was then that we realized this year went so fast. - 1979 Summer meant Smithfield and hanging around. The music of Billy Joel was the present sound. Partying seemed the major concern. Painting the field house . . . It ' s finally our turn! For our new head coaches we gave a big cheer, Coaches Ferrante and Senese we all welcomed here. Senioritis set in and was here to stay. Mousetrap was the title of this years school play. College seemed likely at least so they said . . . Applications and testing were what filled our head. Senior Health movies showed us all a good time . . . With David and Lisa and their talking in rhyme. Candies , Sasoons , and Perms were the style, And Disco dancing would be here for awhile. Those Mother Jokes gave us all a big laugh. Now it ' s standarized testing from all of the staff. Thanksgiving Game Pep Rally got us all really psyched. But the Turkey-Day fun was the thing that we liked! We planned and we planned so far in advance To celebrate Homecoming at Mr. Regional Dance. The snow was approaching and soon would be here, Toboganning at Suicide at this time of year. The Prom was a time we will always remember. And it seemed just like yesterday that it was September. Graduation arrived with its tears and its sighs . . . But the hardest of all were those long good-byes. What we learned here at Dayton will be put to the test. As we look to the future and hope for the best!
