Kingswood Oxford High School - Retrospect Yearbook (West Hartford, CT)

Text from Pages 1 - 136 of the 1971 volume:

We entered: young and hesitant but prepared to take what comes and do our best. The world was distant to us then. Many of us had been nutured in private schools, preparing for years for entry into Kingswood. To others Kingswood was an entirely new experience. But to all, Kingswood was soon our second home, the surroundings familiar, the early fears dispelled. We plunged into work. Homework had never been so hard. And the school day so long. It seemed something was always up, a new respon- sibility, a new burden. Athletics was our safe- guard, a way to release aggressions. The routine soon became familiar, and before we knew it our first year at Kingswood was over. 2 4 By our second year we were old and wise. Social gossip, homework, and sports were all that mat- tered. There was another way to release tensions: unto the first form. The class was restless; people were ready for bigger and better things. Like the third form. Third formers were the kings of the lower school. First formers and second formers were our helpless prey as we mercilessly ruled Fuller Hall. It was our third year at Kingswood. We were halfway through, but college applications and SAT’s weren’t a part of our lives - yet. The next year we were at the bottom again. Social change, change at Kingswood, and indi- vidual maturity changed the complexion of our lives. Things were somehow different. World affairs became much closer to us. We became aware, and with awareness comes concern. Per- haps things could be changed for the better, not only at Kingswood but in the country and the world. We began to grow: emerging from our safe and secure tenure in the lower school, we began to grow. The fifth form was a confusing year. People were going every which way, proceeding at their own rates. Ships passing in the night. Politics created conflict. And many of us became political. An increasing polarization. You versus me. Us versus them. My group versus your group. Hurrah for our side. But we still had to live with each other. People did have faults, but living with them was a test of our maturity. Some of our classmates were changing before our eyes. And others hadn’t changed from their initial entry into Kingswood. College became more important and more immediate. Competition: classroom, ath- letic fields, verbal. It was never so intense. And the senior year. Seniors. The final year. And college just around the corner. Another year of change and growth. The world seems to be coming faster at us every year. Social change became intense. Politics was again a large part of our lives. But somehow it seemed less important. For some of us there was an active participation. For others there were other campaigns. The sen- ior year. 7 8 We would like to think of it as a cycle. Entry, advancement, and departure. But it’s not. It’s an evolution. There will never be another class at Kingswood just like us. With our ideals, our hopes. Things are changing too rapidly. Kings- wood can’t be a shrine to the memory of the class of 71. Much of what we live with, accept, and hope for now will be different when we come back to visit Kingswood. As it must be. But our mark will be felt. Our thoughts, hopes, and ideals will be taken wherever we go. For we are part of time. We are now. And what we are will never be again.

Tutoring and counseling for lower school students was a main concern for the 1971 Prefect body. The Prefects, charged by Headmaster Lazear at the time of their appointment with examining the role of the Prefect at Kingswood and determin- ing its future, have spent 1970-71 constructively. Concentrating their energies on three areas: discipline, the maintenance of upper 'school- lower school ties, and student spirit, the Pre- fects attempted to maintain a balance be- tween the various power elements at Kingswood while retaining their student’s viewpoints. Elected Chairman Jim McDonald cited the Prefect's functions as “things that could be done by any responsible senior — I think the Prefect is outmoded.” Brennan. Watson, King, McDonald (Chairman), Smyth, Montgomery. Missing: Screen. ACTIVITIES STUDENT COUNCIL The student council faced a period of transition in the past year. It was a time of transition from a complex, representative government to a more streamlined, oemocratic form. It was a period of pessimism when the widespread feeling emerged that student government could do little, that it was a sham — a play government. Yet out of the destruction of many of the old illusions and myths of the potential of student power emerged a determined effort to consolidate the powers that students already have to meet the new reali- ties of student voice and student responsibility. 1970-71 was for many involved in student gov- ernment a year of frustration. There was frustra- tion in the relationship between student govern- ment and the “school establishment.” As one student played the game “power, power, who’s got the power?” in an attempt to find out just where the authority to change a hair code lay, others asked where and what power did the es- tablished student government have to effect change. Although student council members took part in the attempt to change the hair code, the action itself took place outside the structure of the council. Aside from the qualified success of the hair code proposal, the action served as a stimulus for a change in the structure of student government. The most significant change that has been adopted by the student council is the new consti- tution. The complexities and ambiguities of the old constitution spurred a desire to change, but the most urgent need lay in the fact that the es- tablished student government was falling behind Clockwise: Moller, Schwartz. Marvin. Perlman. Russell, Treas.. Smyth, Pres., Hauss. Sec., Krevolin, Dunsmorc. Wypcr. Grody. Missing: Talbot, Connolly. Bruce Smyth (left) debates his point of view while Bob Perlman intently listens. Decisions were usually reached through extensive debate and consideration of every point of view. Spectators would frequently join in the discussion. the demands of the student body. Students wanted to speak out for themselves, they no lon- ger wanted to be represented. The new constitution, based on the New Eng- land town meeting system, will involve more students directly in student government, and co-ordinate the many student committees. The year began with a new student lounge in Seaverns Hall. The removal of the old pews and the introduction of comfortable chairs and new tables was the first action of the student council. Once accomplished, the renovation of the chapel occupied little of the time of the council, for maintenance by the students who use it was a major part of the council’s decision to renovate the chapel. The Kingswood-Oxford Fair provided the next area of involvement for the Kingswood council. Joining with the Oxford Service Club, the coun- cil managed to put on the most successful fair ever, raising almost $2,600 for local chairities. While neither the Kingswood council nor the Oxford Service Club could claim full credit for the success of the fair, the kudos goes to the leadership of both groups for working together so well. Another prominent project undertaken by the council was the magazine drive, again co-ordinated with the Oxford Service Club, with money raised by the students, the one dollar for every two dollars matching grant by Mrs. Anne Roberts will make possible comfortable facilities in the new student lounge, to be located in the Roberts Science-Arts Center, currently under construction. In spite of normal operations, this year’s coun- cil, ana its President Bruce Smyth, have absorbed much student criticism. The implementation of a stream-lined, democratic form of student govern- ment was the council’s major achievement this year. In the words of council President Smyth, who was instrumental in the writing of the new constitution, “We accomplished one major objec- tive: the new constitution. Many student com- plaints about student government should now be answered” 29 MUSIC Lower School Glee Club. 1st Row: Smith. Barrieau. Pcaslee, La car. Fons. 2nd Row: Mr. Lyon. Standish, Young. Scull. Dunn. Sponsler. Brautigan. New innovations and a change in style high- lighted the 1970-71 year for the Kingswood mu- sic groups. The introduction of a Lower School Glee Club and a rock band, along with the adop- tion of popular music by all singing groups, stimulated student interest in the school’s music program. Under the leadership of Mr. Dan Lyon and students Dennis Brennan and Dan Novarr, the Kingswood singers and musicians combined for a successful, trend-setting year. The style of the Upper and Lower School Glee Clubs switched from the traditional favorites to new, “pop” songs. Selections from the Fifth Dimension and Herb Alpert livened up the Win- ter and Spring concerts. In an effort to add some variety to the singing performance, Mr. Lyon initiated a five-piece rock band. Besides creating further opportunities for student participation, he feels it will become an excellent starting point for anyone wishing to begin a band of his own. The “Swing-16” group, which replaced the “K-9’s”, consisted of twenty students, ten each from Kingswood and Oxford. Enjoying great success in its first year, its singers were invited to perform at a Trustees dinner and at a meeting of the Connecticut BAR Association. Swing Sixteen Bottom: Watkins. Thcilcr. Kaplan.

Mike Kaprovc (Circulation Manager), Rick Fierberg (Sports Editor) The year 1970-71 marked another excellent per- formance by the dedicated, talented editors and staff members of the Kingswood News. Guided by Mr. Warren Baird, the News continued the concise reporting which has led to many awards in past years. The editors of the bi-weekly tab- loid include Jim MacDonald, Editor-in-Chief; Bruce Smyth, News Editor; Feature Editor, Gerry Sack; and Sports Editor, Rick Fierberg. John Schneider is the Business Manager and Mike Kaprove handles the circulation of the er. he News ably balances the articles between the stories which have national significance and those which deal only with the immediate school community. While tne majority of space in the paper must be alloted to school activities, the News has given much coverage to important na- tional items, such as the recent Congressional elections. The problems of racism and environ- mental despoilment have been explored as they occur both in the school community and on the national scene. As this article is being written, the News has entered numerous competitive contests which compare scholastic newspapers. Both individual awards and those which honor the entire paper have been garnered in past years, and on the basis of the fine showing in 1970-71, the News is virtually assured of gaining some honors. Faculty Advisor Baird called this year’s staff the “climax of years of building the journalism program at Kingswood. Many of this year’s sen- iors have participated on the News for three or even four years. The building of creativity, accu- racy and efficiency of the editors and staff all climaxed this year.” He cites as examples the excellent work of McDonald and Sack, each of whom are attempting to secure jobs in the field of journalism for the spring term and possibly also the summer. McDonald has already had one of his articles published in the Hartford Courant Sunday Magazine. Because of the bi-weekly printing of the News, a rigorous schedule must be followed by its edi- tors. Immediately after the publication of one issue, news-worthy items must be investigated for the next. Each editor is assigned a page on which he works personally. Smyth controls the front page, McDonald the editorials. Sack the feature page, and Fierberg the sports. Journalistic and photographic assignments are handed out by the various editors the week following the latest pub- lication. The News editors have at their disposal a shift- ing pool of reporters, normally about twenty, to follow up the leads and compile the subsequent stories. On Monday of the week of publication, the stories are handed in to the editors who begin the task of proof-reading that night. The editors meet on Tuesday and Thursday nights, first to decide the layouts of the different pages, and then to coordinate all their individual pages into the final copy. Faculty Advisor Warren Baird and John Schneider look over advertisement section of the News. As Business Manager, Schneider was responsible for organizing and raising the funds. WYVERN By John Montgomery Forget me not: a poem of I disappearing into my poems only not to be there when you look inside (you can have the above as the title to the poem and all that is below as the poem itself or you can take your scissors and snip off the paper at a certain point above these lines and have that as the poem without any title: it is your choice) There is time between these lines and these lines measure themselves in the time and the distance which is between them. But these lines, here and now, frigid upon this page as you read them are not the way they were formed. I cannot stop the time it takes for your eyes or my pen to swoop across a single line and on to the next. The ink dries to a dance which can be learned, but while you are learning the dance I will be dancing on and so will you, so why bother? The Wyvern, under the leadership of Editor-in- Chief John Montgomery, tried to present a publica- tion that was “relevant to the student body’s feelings and thoughts.” Art Editor Dale Theiler contributed many of his own photographs to set off Montgomery’s poems. Welcoming contributions from the entire student body, the Wyvern truly reflected Kingswood. Business Manager Dick Bergen paid the bills. Dale Theiler (Art Editor). John Montgomery (Editor-in-Chief).

Co-Chairman Dennis Brennan works with Mrs. Dew on the addressograph machine. The Shield and Dragon, an organization that handles the many thankless tasks that a large school community spawn, continued in its varied tasks under the leadership of co-chairmen Den- nis Brennan. Dick Bergen, and Stu Peaslee. Mail- ing, conducting tours, serving teas, and posting general campus information, were some of the tasks performed by the Shield and Dragon. Among their many mailing responsibilities. Shield and Dragon members were found busily distributing Kingswood Today, the Oxford Alum- nae Bulletin, reports to the parent on academic issues, and fund-raising literature. Another job done by the Shield and Dragon was the familiar “tour” where parents and new applicants are given an extensive tour of Kings- wood as well as a student's view of the school. Much of the hard work of the administrative aids society goes unnoticed as countless hours are spent by members in the Nicholson Building organizing, sorting, posting, sealing, printing, touring, and mailing just to name a few of the multitude of small necessities catered for by the Shield and Dragon. The Shield and Dragon has devoted another year to attending to all the thankless tasks that a school like Kingswood spawns, in an efficient and reliable manner. Co-Chairmen Dennis Brennan. Stu Peaslee and Dick Bergen. PRESS BOARD Pres. Rick Fierberg and Sec. Tom Hanes look over final stats of the KIT. This years KIT proved to he the Press Board's biggest task. 1st Row: Wolf, Fritzon, Bergen, Seltzer, Kinnicult, Wetherell. 2nd Row: Fierberg. Pres., Hanes, Sec., House, Greenberg.

Led by President Rick Fierberg, along with the invaluable assistance of Secretary Tom Hanes, the Press Board managed to succeed in this aim very well. Enticing staff writers from both the Hartford Times and the Hartford Couranl to attend nu- merous sports events, the Press Board even man- aged to place articles in the prestigious New York Times, a publication previously unreceptive to Kingswood sports coverage. A staff of fifteen handled the public relations chores during the Kingswood Invitational Tour- nament flawlessly. Tasks included the compila- tion of statistics, the transformation of the stats to ditto masters, and finally the distribution of the stats to coaches, college scouts, and judges. An outstanding achievement for the Board was the presence of photographers from three news- papers — a tribute to the efficiency of the Press Board’s public relations skills. Other sports also received in-depth coverage as, for the first time, baseball and lacrosse both received top newspaper coverage. 36 FILM CLUB 1st Row: Purrington. Novarr (President). Collamorc (Secretary-Treasurer). 2nd Row: Clark, Hodgdon. Lawrence. Montgomery. Greenberg. Exciting feature films, countless film “orgies,” and innumerable “shorts” were the the hallmarks of the Film Club’s of 1970-71 presentations. Pres- ident Dan Novarr cited the year as “very success- ful for the people involved in film. We had large turnouts at all of our shows, and I can honestly say that most people had a good time.” Outstanding attractions presented by the Film Club were Help, starring the Beatles, The Wrong Box starring Peter Sellers, and A Face of War a documentary of Vietnam battles. Other popular attractions were the W. C. Fields shorts shown throughout the year, and The List of Adrian Mes- senger, starring Kirk Douglas. Personnel instrumental in the successful run- ning of features films were Secretary Harry Col- lamore, Oxford liason Tricia Purrington, and projectionest Jonny Clark. Technical assistance was provided by Film Making instructor Tyler Tingley. ‘The Film Club’s aim,” commented Novarr, “was to bring the best possible feature film enter- tainment to Kingswood and Oxford at the lowest possible prices.” 37 DRAMA Director Frank Best conducts initial tryouts for the Aristophnes’ play, The Birds. ” The play was the dramatic society’s biggest production, and was a large success. A comedy by some ancient and mythical charac- ter named Aristophanes, contemporary theater where performers open doors and lift barbells that don’t even exist, and coffee houses that serve free coffee and had the best floor show for miles around, highlighted this year’s activities in dra- matics on the Kingswood-Oxford stage. Kingswood-Oxford talent in dramatics also ventured far beyond the traditional boundaries of Hewett Gymnasium and Guernsey Hall. “Im- provisations for Children”, the first of the two touring children plays, traveled to the Vine Street School, in Hartford for five performances and to the Avon Junior High School. On the Broadway scene, Kingswood-Oxford theatrical students viewed “Hair” and other popular shows. One of the principal actions of this year’s drama club was the change of the formal Kings- wood-Oxford Dramatic Society to a more loosely structured drama club. According to advisor and director Frank Best, “We are leaving the formal dramatic society behind and trying to create an original Kingswood-Oxford theater.” Three “Coffee Houses”, held on the stage at various times during the school year, were the principal financial support of the drama club. The entertainment ranged from classic comedy heroes such as W. C. Fields and Mae West, to strange poems about “Aqua-Velva Hot Dogs.” This year drama activities were once again the principal source of entertainment on the Kings- wood-Oxford scene. There was participation in almost every facet of theatrical activities possible 38 DEBATING 1st Row: Lurie, McEnroe, Monterosso, 2nd Row: Litman. Penney, Kruger. Auslandcr. Fink, 3rd Row: Rogers, O’Hurlcy. 1970-71 was a transitional vear for the Debating Society. Highlight of the debate season was the fifth annual Kingswood Invitational Debate Tournament where the Varsity team placed eighth. West Hartford based Conard High School took the first place trophy in the tourna- ment squeaking by Fairfield High School and Stamford High School who placed second and third respectively. A change in leadership occured in the Debate Society wnen Chairman Bruce Smyth resigned after organizing and running the Kingswood tournament. Smyth cited personal reasons for his resignation. Junior Colin McEnroe and Sopho- more Keith Lurie took over the reins after Smyth’s resignation. Other Varsity debaters, be- side Lurie and McEnroe, were Senior Ronald Monterosso and Junior Howard Kruger. Due to the large number of sophomores and Freshmen on the debate teams, coach Drew Lang- hauscr is optimistic about the future of debating at Kingswood. As Colin McEnroe says “Debate isn’t dead yet.” Faculty Advisor Drew Langhauser discusses strategy with junior Howie Kruger for an upcoming tournament. 39 Junior Colin McEnroe practices his technique for an up- coming debate. McEnroe is co-chairman and a major part of the team. ECO-ACTION The bottles shown were collected during the Eco-Action Committee's major drive. The Dayville Company was the receiver of the bottles throughout the year. The Kingswood-Oxford Eco-Action Club, formed out of the remnants of the old science club, and inspired by the vast extent of conscious and unconscious pollution happening every day in many different locations, concentrated their energies on education of the public to the dang- ers of pollution, and political activitism designed to make polluters STOP. Led by President Tom Talbot, and assisted by ecology instructor Jack Emery, the group issued numerous bulletins with consumer information. A successful campaign for bottle collection was conducted in the winter and spring terms. The group transported the bottles, collected at the white storage garage at Kingswood, to the Day- ville bottle reclamation plant for re-cycling. A 1C per lb. renumeration barely covered the transpor- tation charges. A vigorous letter-writing campaign was con- ducted throughout the year, as polluters received many notices of Kingswood-Oxford’s displeasure with their actions. Other public statements by the club were their frequent letters to the Kingswood News. A successful year of campaigning against pol- luters and informing the public against the dang- ers of pollution marked the Eco-Action Club’s accomplishments. This sign was used at the collection point to advertise the bottle drive. Bottles were collected in an effort to avoid the ever increasing problem of waste. The drive was organized by Chairman Talbot and Secretary Hanley and yielded 1700 pounds of bottles in the first effort. 40 KINGSWOOD NEWS December 18,1970 'Whatever Your Cause. It's A Lost One Unless We Control Population. Population Control; A Necessity by Tom Talbot Overpopulation will perhaps be the greatest problem facing the world in the future. At the present rate of growth the world population will double by the year 2000. The obvious consequences of overpopulation are pollution, famine, depletion of natural resources, despoiling of nature, pestilence, overcrowding, noise, crime, warfare, and social chaos. How have we come to the brink of population catastrophe without knowing it? Mainly because of the medical and sanitary advances achieved during and after World War II. Today fewer mothers and babies die in child birth; many killer diseases have been conquered and the virilence of others have been lessened; and treatments for accidents are more effective than ever before. While death control lias improved greatly in quality, birth control has lagged behind. It is true some potential parents now have available the pill and many other contraceptive devices along with easy operations like sterilization and abortion. Many people who should use them are, however, restrained from doing so by outmoded laws and religious bans. We must stabilize or even reduce the population of the United States which, if it continues growing, at the present rate, will double in ten years. We must do this in order to conserve our own resources and to have the time to resolve our own population related problems. We must do this in order to be able to face the critical political situations that will arise as overpopulation destroys the countries in which the problem is now nearly helpless. We must set an example for the •countries which can still save themselves by stopping their growth. Zero Population Growth is a political action organization whose purpose is to bring about population stability in the U.S. and then in the rest of the world. We will achieve this by political and educational means as follows: 1. ) We will do everything we can-speak, write, talk and demonstrate-to educate the public and government agencies to the immediate dangers of population problems. 2. ) We stress the importance of limiting families to not more than two natural children, an essential for achieving population stability. 3. ) We support legislation to provide comprehensive and realistic birth control programs designed to reach every member of our society. 4. ) We urge increased research to improve contraception. 5. ) We urge the repeal of archaic laws that don’t follow our goals. Anti-abortion, anti-contraception, and anti-sterilization laws are examples. 6. ) We suggest revision of the state and federal tax laws to discourage rather than encourage large families. 7. ) We support measures designed to change our foreign policy and aid, to help solve the population problems. Z.P.G.’s ideas should form the basis for an international movement. I urge that everyone at Kingswood-Oxford consider both the problem in general and the possibility of joining us to help solve it. 1st Row: Hanley. Collamorc. Dunsmorc. Atwood.

The World Affairs Club, purveyors and analysts of world problems, participated in the annual trip to the United Nations this year as well as holding regularly scheduled meetings to discuss recent political developements. The format of discussing one country or geographic area at a time was continued, with in-depth coverage of each country’s problems resulting. President Howard Kruger, the founder and original organizer of the club, continued to intro- duce world affairs problems to the Kingswood student body by making frequent pronounce- ments on problems of the day in the Kingswood News. Other leaders of the club were Secretary Doug Lawrence and outspoken Rich Wolf. The increasing importance of world affairs to the concerned high school student was cited by Howard Kruger’s letter to the News when Kruger stated “The high school student must know world affairs or be considered a hermit.” Chairman Kruger prepares the agenda for the next meeting. Entering in the fourth form, Kruger found need for a club involved in world politics. Since last year, membership has doubled 42 ADVERTISING CLUB 1st Row: Virgien, Flynn, Nweeia. 2nd Row: McEnroe, Mr. Best, Moller, Lewis. The Advertising Society, formed due to the in- spiration and dedication of President Bruce Moller, provided posters, announcements, and word of mouth publicity for many Kingswood functions. Operating under Moller’s assertion that “We’ll publicize any and every legitimate activity or function of any Kingswood or Oxford group” the society, or club as they were more commonly referred to, were kept busy designing appropriate advertising copy. Exciting slogans devised by the club included “Come to the Comedy Hit of the Season! Come to the benefit performance of Love Story! Laugh! Laugh! Laugh!” and “Hear the great ‘mystery’ band this Saturday night! (We don’t know who it is yet)” Other participants besides Moller were Literary Director Colin McEnroe, Art Director Scott Lewis, and Oxford liason Cindy Maltby. Assistance was rendered by advi- sor Frank Best. DANCE COMMITTEE 1970-71 saw a change for the Dance Committee from a group that engaged in hard sell cam- paigns of dance subscriptions to every ambula- tory member of the student body, to a simpler group that held several dances with a pay at the door financing. Chairman Stuart Peaslee led a group that provided well-decorated dance floors, refreshments, and bands that ranged from very poor to very good. Student reaction to the new format was one of restrained enthusiasm, some preferring the more lively dances where every person had to have bought a subscription. On the other side many students felt pressured to buy tickets for every dance in the old format, and preferred the pay as you come system. The Dance Committee tried to present the very best in dance entertainment in a simpler format, and succeeded to a large degree. Mr. Doyle, Bergen. Austin. Cotton. Peaslee.

Feinstein was invaluable to the staff as he made the final copy of the entire book. Kinnicutt. Kaprovc. Sack. Brennan. Novarr. Editor-in-Chief Sack ponders over the layout of the yearbook. Sack reorganized the Black and Crim- son staff by putting himself in charge of all aspects with the exception of photography. Photogranhy Editor Kinnicutt's photographic ability •ombinea with that of senior Bill Thomson s and Editor Sack‘s to provide the yearbook with excellent photo- graphic quality. The Black and Crimson is a new publication this year, as it is every year, due to the infusion of a completely new staff with new ideas and new methods of making a yearbook. Editor-in-Chief Gerry Sack’s idea for the yearbook was it to be “More of a magazine than the traditional photo with stream of consciousness type of yearbook. I would like to see it made into a complete news-magazine in a couple more years, but I’m content with just including a feature section and deleting some of the more puerile aspects found in most yearbooks.” Besides Sack, the only other recipient of an editorial position was Photography Editor Zip Kinnicutt, whose talents with lay-out, as well as with a camera, contributed enormously to the yearbook. Other positions, all appointed by Sack, were Chief Draftsmen Doug Feinstein, who drafted all final lay-outs, the lay-out staff, which included Feinstein, and Kinnicutt, and the photography and literary staffs. Although minor contributions were made by several others, the vast majority of the photographs were taken by Kinni- cutt, Bill Thomson, and Sack. Business Managers Dennis Brennan, Michael Kaprove, and Daniel Nuvarr, watched over the finances and handled the advertisements section. Sack summed up the aims of the 1971 year- book by saying, “It’s something for you to cry over when you’re old and grey.” 45 Tom Redden leads the way for fullback Ijee Finley. Finley set school records carrying the ball 44 times for 228 yards in the A von game. FOOTBALL The 1970 Kingswood gridders, sparked by indi- vidual and team record performances, outplayed all opponents in compiling an excellent 6-1 ledger. A devastating ground attack, combined with a stingy defense, was the key which enabled the Wyverns to outscore their rivals by a total of 125 points. Spearheaded by senior tri-captains Lee Finley, Dick Screen and Tony Dunne, the team proved to be one of the best anywhere on the secondary school level. At year’s end the con- tingent was honored by the New Haven Register, which ranked it second best of Connecticut’s Prep School teams. Head coach Joel Lorden was extremely pleased with the squad, calling it “the best I ever coached — at Kingswood or anywhere else.” In its only loss, 27-19 to powerhouse Peddie, the Wyverns dominated the statistics but were guilty of some costly miscues. Falling to the Wyvern onslaught were Taft, Williston, Westminster, Trinity-Pawling, Hopkins and Avon Old Farms. Fullback Finley set two school records in the Avon game, as he lugged the ball 44 times for a total oi 228 yards. All through the season he was used to grind out the tough yardage in the mid- dle of the line. Tri-captains Lee Finley (32), Dick Screen (II), and Tony Dunne (66 greet opponents. Leadership, ability, and spirit were the trademarks of th three seniors. Junior halfback Donnie Lambert, used effec- tively on end sweeps, established a personal scoring mark for Kingswood as he crossed the goal-line fifteen times during the year for 90 points. The high-poWered offense set still another record with its yearly total of 216 points. Senior quarterback Gregg Mastriforte receives snap from center EarI Biscoe, also a senior. Both were praised by Coach Lorden for their flawless play '.execution. The team’s rushing yardage (2235), the personal running total of Finley (822 y'ards), and Lam- bert’s amazing 11.4 average gain are in all proba- bility school marks. Incomplete records of past teams, however, prevent complete verification. The offensive back field was commanded by quarterback Greg Mastriforte, one of fourteen seniors departing from the team. Although lim- ited in his passing game by the potent ground attack, he connected four times with Lambert on scoring aerials. His excellent ball-handling kept the Wyverns from suffering costly fumbles. Joining Finley and Lambert as a running back was sophomore Tom Redden, a fine blocxer as well as a powerful runner. Although often over- shadowed by the heroics of his running mates. Redden averaged over six yards a carry and scored 24 points himself. Much of the credit for the offensive showing must be given to the senior-laden offensive line. It was these players - center Earl Biscoe, guards Jon Cotton, Charlie Hartigan and John LoPresti, tackles Chris Mooney and Bill Stack, and ends Larry King. Andy Russell and Phil Hartigan — who provided the blocking so necessary for an effective rushing game. A statistic which reveals the potency of tne line is that in Finley’s 204 car- ries through the interior, he was dropped for a loss only twice. 1st Ro ■: Mastriforte, Barrows. Watkins.

The defensive line was headed by tackle Dunne and senior ends Rick Watkins and Frank Bar- rows. Lorden was able to count on them for a solid effort every Saturday. Dealt a hard blow in early parctice by an injury to starter Doug Feinstein, the line recuperated from the loss to allow only 709 rushing yards for the year. Bruce Powell, Ben Dana, and Lee Nordstrom comple- mented the seniors in the trenches. Sophomores Larry Kenney and Jim Corth- outs, in their second year as starters, handled the linebacking chores flawlessly. The talented performers had both the physical strength and the speed vital to the position. The defensive backfield contained junior half- backs Greg Stratos and Craig Jones, along with safety Screen. Senior Gary Kolakowski ably backed up the well-drilled unit which combined with the rest of the defense to limit rivals to 55 first downs. A unique platooning system was initiated suc- cessfully this year under the laudable tutelage of the Kingswood coaches. During the week the offensive and defensive squads practiced inde- pendently of one another. Each platoon was further split up, with Dave Van Dyck handling Swift running buck Don Lambert follows blocking back Tom Redden (21) on his way to another long gain. the offensive backs and J. L. Gorham Smith running the line. Graham Brown worked with the defensive line, Coach Lorden with the defen- sive backs. Next year’s team, to be led by co-captains Lambert and Corthouts, will have a solid base of talent, but there is little room to improve on 1970’s tremendous showing. The Wyvern's stalwart defense cheats arch-rival Peddie out of another gain. Sophomores Ben Dana (51). and Jim Corthouts (22), smother Peddie running back Jack Todd Junior Bruce Powell (76), is also in on the play.

Smith. “Aside from shoes, no equipment is needed and practice can be done right on campus.” Assured that the implementation of a cross country pro- gram at Kingswood would be simple and financially feasible, the Athletic Department gave the go-ahead, and this Fall saw a rennaissance of cross country for Kingswood. Sparked by the Letter to the Editor of the Kingswood News quoted above, written by Sen- ior Mike Kaprove, cross country saw a surpris- ingly large number of prospects turn out for the miles and miles of running a top varsity group would have to do to get in peak condition. Coached by Mr. Mark Doyle, and led by team originator and Captain Mike Kaprove, the har- riers soon gelled into a solid squad. Weeks of grueling practice and scrimmages marked the way to the squad’s first meet, a 30.5-25 victory over a veteran Suffield team. Harder times soon followed, however, as the har- riers fell to Avon and Loomis in ensuing con- tests. Junior Jere Carangelo ran first, as he had done all season, in the Wyvern’s final meet, a rematch victory over Suffield. Other strong runners were Captain Mike Kaprove, Jim Alderman, and Chris Hanley. Captain Mike Kaprove works out in daily practice. Senior Kaprove originated the cross country spirit at Kingswood in his Letter to the Editor of the Kingswood News. Responded to favorably by the Athletic Department. Kaprove's suggestion became reality this Fall. SOCCER Captain Jim McDonald prepares to cross the ball to willing teammates. Making a successful transition to a defensive position. McDonald provided an invaluable backstop against the charges of opponents. Acting as a compromise between a center halfback and a center fullback. McDonald would create his own position according to the demand% of the particular situation. Injury, disappointment, and inconsistent efforts marked the 1970 season of the Varsity Soccer team. Led by Captain Jim McDonald, the team’s top scorer in two previous seasons, and veteran Coach Alan Flynn, the group tallied a disap- pointing 5-7 record. Although it was felt in pre-season practice that the squad had great po- tential to better 1969’s winning record, bouts with the flu, injuries, and a feeling of being down in many key games put a damper on team hopes. The season began with a well deserved 2-0 vic- tory over Taft. Goalkeeper John Schneider and newcomer Dan Novarr ably protected the scoring efforts of Bill Drakos and Stu Peaslee. A early scheduled contest against soccer power Suffield followed, with the Wyverns bowing 5-2. A satisfying victory against Westminster ended 3-0, but eventual league champion Kent stopped Kingswood with a 2-0 squeaker, a game that could have gone any way until a fourth quarter injury of goalie Schneider. Left wing Sandy Watson helped the team to victories over Pomfret, Trinity-Pawling, and Avon, with able assistance from Wes Chot- kowski. Losses to Choate, Williston, Hopkins, Berkshire, and Wilbraham provided the losing side of the Slate. Injuries to McDonald, halfback Gary Lattanzio, forward Bill Drakos, and for- ward scoring ace Bob Swain allowed a spiritual as well as physical morass to plague the team. Senior Gary Ijaltanzio prepares to head oncoming ball at fullback John Thomas backs him up. Other defensive stalwarts included fullbacks Dan Novarr and Mike Tomasso. halfbacks Steve Twitchell and Dennis Brennan, and goalkeepers John Schneider and David Rosenthal.

AIthough Kingswood lost, the Wyverns recovered to post a 18-5 record and take second place in the New England Class B Cham- pionship. We had but four returning lettermen from a squad that had garnered a 13-8 record the previous year. We lacked a tested big man. We lost a starting forward early in the season. We averaged a diminutive six feet and one-third inches. Wc faced one of the toughest schedules in years. We were 18-5. We placed second in New England in our class. We captured second place in the Saint Stephens Invitational Tournament and third in our own KIT. Enough said? Hardly. At the season’s start we knew that we would be fast and that our defense would be a pressing, harrassing defense. Would we be able to hold our own against taller, more physical teams? Our big men were equally lacking in experience, thus giving us one large if. Maybe we could slip into the KIT undefeated with a 3-0 record. Kingswood 81, Wilbraham 52. Kingswood 84, Hopkins 73. Kingswood 104. Taft 72. We made it. After disposing of Westminster in the initial KIT round we locked horns with defending cham- pion Adelphi Prep. With four returning starters, including 6'6 Carlos Bermudez and 6'4 Allen Martin. Adelphi placed the Wyverns in the role of the underdog. We saw the lead stolen from us in the closing minutes, as Adclphi’s 78% shooting was too much for the Black and Crimson. It’s nice to say that you lost to the champs at least, and almost as nice to beat Loomis and place third. Our walloping of Choate was merely a prelude to the showdown with crosstown rival Rooinson. In what was billed as “the championship of West Hartford” we again saw victory snatched away in the closing moments. We entered the game with the standard lineup of Don Lambert, Greg Stratos, Dick Screen, Dave Gelles. and Dan Novarr. We emerged without Novarr, the victim of his oft- offending elusive shoulder. That wrapped up the season for the husky rebounder. Three more relatively easy games before the next emotional peak, the Trinity Freshman Squad. With our drubbings of Pomfret, Williston and Suffield we entered the Trinity gym with a 9-2 slate. Don Lambert’s 42 points weren’t quite enough as we fell to a far more physical team 72-68 in an overtime thriller. Our lack of size forced us to foul heavily, which dissipated our ranks considerably. Playing the extra stanza with one six-footer saw us seriously out-manned. Continuing the three easies and then a hard pattern we clobbered Westminster. Kent, and Cranwell wc prepared ourselves for Loomis. Hav- ing earlier defeated this arch-rival, we expected a tough game. After Loomis’ early 8-0 lead we saw fit to come back and take a commanding lead in the third quarter. When Loomis attempted a come back it was Dick Screen's hand that saved it for us. We went on to win 89-74. The yearly trip to Washington saw Don Lam- bert shatter scoring records galore including an opening game 52 point performance in the crush- ing of Bullis. A day later, clutch foul shooting and strong rebounding sent the Wyverns past Good Council, the team that had eliminated us the previous year. As we faced tournament favorite Georgetown Prep in the finals we garnered en- thusiastic fan support in a “foreign land.” How- ever we droppea a 73-67 decision and finished second in the tourney. Tuning up for the New England Class B Cham- pionship Tournament we faced Avon. Try as we might we could not make it any closer than 91-45. We then eliminated Trinity-Pawling (no they weren’t in New England). we traveled to face a powerful Windsor Moun- tain contingent, a team that was supposed to destroy all competition. Suffice it to say, we won. Don Lambert was superb, as was Larry King’s rebounding and Dave Gelles’ rebounding. We earned the right to face New Hampton at Brandeis University in Waltham, Mass. Did we choke? Were we outplayed? Were they better? We lost, ending a terrific honor-filled year. Greg Stratos puts in an easy one as his opponent helplessly watches.

A talented group of juniors provided the wrestling squad with strength as well as expertise and spirit. After opening the season with a last second victory over Hopkins, the 1970-71 wrestling team survived the flu epidemic and posted an improved 6-5 ledger. Following the Hopkins match the Wrestling team was muscled by yearly rival Loomis. After this match the flu thinned the members of the team to a point that the Gunnery match was postponed. But the wrestlers rebounded with wins over Taft and Trinity-Pawling before falling to perennial powerhouses Choate and Suflield. In the Connecticut Intcrscholastic Wrestling Tournament the wrestlers placed three wrestlers in fourth, one in third and one in second thus placing the team sixth overall. Sophomore Dave Reynolds and Juniors Dave Bradley and Bruce Moller all placed fourth in their weight classes while Allen Petersen defeated his opponent in the consolation round thus capturing third place. Phil Hartigan capped the Wyvern’s tournament show- ing as he dropped his championship match to his Loomis opponent. Others who contributed to the Wyvern effort were Captain Tony Dunne and Charlie Hartigan the only seniors on the squad. The remainder of the team was made of A conglomeration of sopho- mores and juniors such as Scott Haskell, Rich Preston, Bob Kaplan, Ben Dana and numerous others who filled in as the need arose. 54 Junior Dave Bradley struggles with an opponent. Sophomores and juniors were the mainstays of the 1970-71 wrestling team, with only two seniors on the squad. With a wealth of talent coming up. this season's 6-5 ledger is expected to be improved upon in coming seasons. Junior Phil Hartigan grapples his Suffield opponent.

SKIING Senior Captain Stu Peaslee led the ski team to an amazing record of 74 wins and 6 losses and the championship of The Berkshire Ski League. In one of the most successful seasons in Kings- wood history, the Ski Team compiled an amazing record of 74 wins and 6 losses to capture the Berkshire Ski League crown for the first time. Sparked by Coach Peter Kaminsky and Captain Stu Peaslee, the team came back after an erratic start to catapult to the top of their league. The final meet, the annual Berkshire Ski League Championship race, proved to be the highlight of the season. By placing first in both the special slalom and the giant slalom, the team guaranteed itself the number one spot in their league. Junior Dave Virgien’s performance at this event sur- passed all expectations as he copped first place in the special slalom and second in the giant slalom out of a field of nearly 70 racers. Another outstanding meet was the Berkshire Interscholastic race earlier in the season. Compet- ing against 20 teams, the Wyvems placed first in the special slalom race and second in the down- hill. Sophomore Winslow Ayer led the Kingswood five in the downhill with a second place finish while Dave Vigien placed third in the special slalom. Practicing for the better part of two hours every day this winter, invariably under hazardous conditions, the six skiers’ fine record is an ex- ample of teamwork which will long be remembered at Kingswood. The other key to this team’s suc- cess was an underlying optimism which never once wavered during the course of the season. Background: Becker. Waters, Virgien. Barrows. Ayer, Coach Kaminsky.

The season started with a successful 900 to 853 win against Suffield as freshman Dave Roosa and senior Harry Collamore turned in solid perfor- mances. A disappointing loss to Loomis followed as an inconsistent effort plagued the squad. A loss to Avon soon followed as only Captain Jeff Ridout garnered a good score. Rebounding from these losses, Kingswood set- tled down to win its next three matches. Choate, Suffield, and an upset victory over Avon Old Farms elevated the Wyvern’s record to 4-2. Suffering from a psychological letdown follow- ing their upset victory, the Wyverns dropped the remaining two matches. Monson and Loomis were the victors over the Wyverns in those matches. Next year’s squad will be led by Captains David Grant and Phil Vogel. Other experienced per- formers returning will be Chris Gillette, Rob House, and Dave Roosa. Graduating seniors Gary Allport. Steve Putnam, Ridout, and Collamore will deplete the depth of next year’s riflemen. Inconsistent efforts, psychological letdowns, and a feeling of never really gelling as a complete squad plagued this year’s rifle squad, despite a experienced junior and senior laden team.

Many a sunny day saw KingsH'ood and Oxford students relaxing and studying on a grassy knoll or in a empty room. Although there wasn't much co-education as many students would have liked, the number of girls and boys on a friendly basis is steadily increasing. BOYS AND GIRLS . . . In September of 1969, two very distinct educa- tional institutions, Kingswood and Oxford Schools, each with over a half century of different traditions and identities, merged in a system of “co-ordinate education.” The difference between “co-ordinate” and co-education was quickly made clear to the stu- dents when they returned in the fall of 1969 to find that less than thirty boys were to have any integrated classes. 1969-70 was a year of defen- sive reactions, frustration, and disgust on the part of students, faculty, and administration alike as each school’s struggle to insure the protection of its own identity combined with practical difficulties such as different schedules and trans- portation problems to keep the two schools apart. Another year has now passed, and 1970-71 has been a year with defensive reactions, frustration and disgust, but it has also been a year of prog- ress. In one of the most important developments of the year, the schedules of the two schools were co-ordinated. With the system of having Oxford’s periods start twenty minutes after Kingswood’s, it was no longer necessary to have the three conse- cutive free periods that had been required to take a course at the other campus. Another development of great importance was the introduction of the “magic bus” to the Kings- wood-Oxford scene. From Christmas vacation on, the bus provided the first reliable means of transportation between the two campuses. From the Administration’s point of view the bus, in Headmaster Lazear’s words, was, “the first step in making more opportunities possible.” But, perhaps just as importantly, to the students of Kingswood-Oxford, the bus and its unique driv- er, Charlie, became the first real joint institution of the two schools. The “magic bus”, with all the tales that have grown up around it, is one of the first real parts of Kingswood-Oxford’s joint iden- tity. The importance of improved scheduling and transportation was seen by an increase of inte- grated classroom situations. Classes in Russian and Japanese history, Latin, English, math French, and Spanish were all integrated, at least partially, for the first time. Three members of the Kingswood faculty also taught courses at the Oxford campus, and Kings- wood teacher Mike Wade was named as Chair- man of the Oxford Science deaprtment. The greater accessibility between the two schools also led to important new contacts be- tween the two student bodies. The Oxford girls began to take a real interest in and support readily the Kingswood athletic program. They cheered for nearly all of Kingswood’s Varsity teams, and girls often outnumbered boy specta- tors at games. The most successful fair ever held at Oxford was a joint venture by the two student bodies in which nearly $3,000 was raised for charity and the two groups learned more about each other. In the field of music, the Swing Sixteens, an integrated singing group under the leadership of Dan Lyons appeared on the scene and enter- tained both student bodies. Meanwhile, the Eco-action Committee moved to include girls in its efforts to save our environment. Yet, despite these signs of progress, the slow move toward co-education often placed a great strain on the students of the school. Murphy and Cindy Maltbie look on as Kingswood-Oxford Science Chairman Michael Wade explains an experiment. Integrated science ; was one of the more apparent and concrete manifestations of co-ordinate Education. Two ready examples are those of the Kings- wood NEWS and the Student Council. The NEWS was distributed to Oxford girls for the first time this year and became, “The Newspaper of the Kingswood-Oxford School.” This meant that events at Oxford had to be covered just as they were at Kingswood. Here all the difficulties of different traditions combined with those of simply communicating with someone on the other campus to create a friction which served to arouse, at least for a time, animosities, and place a strain on the or- ganization. The Student Councils of the two schools were also placed in a very difficult position which could serve only to undermine their effectiveness. The two Councils are established on different basises, are organized differently, and perform different tasks. Yet, they were expected to be able to work jointly to promote activities for the benefit of both student bodies. Speaking of the students part in the present system of Co-ordinate education. Council Presi- dent Bruce Smyth represented the opinions of many others who held leadership positions when he said, “From the beginning of the year, we’ve had the worst of both sides.” Next year will see, barring any unforseen difficulties, the merger of the two English depart- ments of the school. Under this new program. Kingswood and Oxford Upper schoolers will be able to choose any course on either campus that they can fit into their schedule. Thus, the steps toward a closer bond will continue. And perhaps it is true, as one faculty member put it that the system of co-ordinate education will, “grow very naturally until the two schools are almost indis- tinguishable.” And perhaps then there will be no questions left about whether co-ordinate education was a wiser choice than some sort of complete co-education on one campus. But, at least for those of us who are leaving this year, the bitter taste of the frustration of a great opportunity lost will be the dominant memory of Kingswood’s move toward co-education. • • • TOGETHER? A BUILDING GROWS AT KINGSWOOD Neat plans on blue paper, awarding of contracts, and even news of a $1,000,000 gift all seemed distant. But then, it was all very real, very close when we returned in September. There it was, a big hole in the ground, familiar trees gone, one less soccer field, the Headmaster’s house seem- ingly about to totter into a pit, and even the ine- vitable Brownie’s Chemical Toilet. “How do you get to the soccer field?” “Park along Outlook? I got a ticket there yes- terday.” A little rain, and then mud. Everywhere. And big, deep holes being dug down to the solid rock that the future will rest upon. “No water for showers? —, I smell like — !” “What’s his room?” “221, hah, hah.” Lower schoolers cutting across a path on the Green. Then the grass is resown and the side- walk is used. A ten foot wide lake is dug by a stuck dump truck. Students rumored to have caught 6 inch bass. Meanwhile the football team is demolishing everyone. The holes are arranged and rearranged and cement steps, to big for one step at a time and too small for two, appear beside the gym. “Where’s the electricity?” And those hug cement rucks start rolling in and pouring foundations. A major new spectator sport is developed. One monstrous Tomasso truck teeters on the edge of rolling sideways into a hole. Another comes and pulls it out. Ap- plause. Lots of rain. Lots of mud. And we got to know the workers. A new addi- tion to the school. “Hey, get me a soda at the catering truck.” More and more cement. “Hey, look how they get the air bubbles out. I wonder if liquid cement would crush you?” The parking lot is finished, well, not finished but made usable. “I have to get up five minutes earlier to get there now.” More mud, and plans are changed. A different Common Room. And more cement. Another $125,000 grant and the snow fell. “In the end it will probably cost 13,000,000.” Ice came. “God, you should have seen it. I almost went off the road down the hill trying to get out of the parking lot.” The foundation’s finished. Everything on sched- ule. But it’s too cold to watch anymore. “How do the workers stand it?” A crane arrives. And big long thick pieces of steel go up. Men up there, sinking those hot bolts. Worth watching despite cold. A lattice work of a school’s future rises. Spring is here. Mud and more mud. “I watch them work to keep my mind off getting in to col- lege.” “You can see the shape. There, that’s where the auditorium is going to be.” “Yeah, hah, I got in!” The mud dries. Steel still rises. Bricks appear. The end is coming fast. “What do you think they’ll do over the summer?” “Two undefeated Spring teams?” And commencement. It’s all over. $300,000 still needed. “We’re Old Boys now.” 1972 is still pretty far away. But we have watched a building rise and as it has, so have Kingswood’s hopes for the future. THE CHANGING CURRICULUM These arc times that demand change. For all of our present society’s institutions, including edu- cation, constant evolution is a necessity. This fact is one that has been recognized at Kingswood in the continual move to improve and expand the curriculum. Students have changed. They are no longer willing to blindly accept what is told or taught to them. They question, challenge, demand relevan- cy, and want to have a voice in determining what and how they arc taught. This year, as in the past two, this desire for a student voice in curriculum matters has been represented by the presence of student members on the Curriculum Committee. The Chairman of the committee, Mr. Frank Beatty, says of the students who have been involved, “Their think- ing, their ideas of what works and what doesn’t have been extremely valuable.” Photography became an increasingly popular course this year as an enrollment of 46 almost tripled the number of students in previous years. Crowded laboratory conditions failed to diminish the enthusiasm of the photographers from Kingswood and Oxford as developing film and printing (as Mark Kinnicutt does above) became useful skills through practice and teaching. Andy Chapman, who along with Gerry Sack, John Montgomery, Gordon Bergen, and Mark Fisher is one of this year’s student representa- tives, while stating that the seeming inefficiency of the committee is often frustrating from the stu- dent’s point of view, commented, “I think the students on the committee have helped in devel- oping new courses by representing a different viewpoint from that of the teachers.” If a generalization were to be made about new developments in the past year’s curriculum, it would be that the move toward a wider variety of courses and thus more choice for the student, has continued. The English Department, in the second year of its Upper School elective program, added five new courses and divided another into different sections to bring the total number of choices for an Upper Schooler to 34. The new offerings, in- cluding such possibilities as contemporary mime, sin and redemption, and the supernatural further enlarged the existing spectrum of tri-mester courses. For any given term, a student could have been faced with choosing among such di- verse offerings as film making, war in literature, freedom and authority, Shakespeare, and play- writing. Also under English Department auspices, sev- eral independent study projects of note were car- ried out. Films were made, one student studied psychology and then established a discussion class on it, another read over seventy-five science fiction novels and worked out a course on science fiction theory, and in the culmination of one proj- ect in journalism, a story was published in a commercial magazine. Commenting on these projects, Mr. Beatty stated. “I think this is the direction we will be going in more and more.” One of the students involved stated that he felt. “I got more out of my project than I could have from a regular class because the fact that what I was doing interested me led to me work- ing especially hard.” The effects of a greater variety of courses was readily visible in the Math Department this year. The newly arranged elective system for Seniors and qualified Juniors, which included offerings in different levels of calculus, navigation, econom- ics, computer science, and problems and statis- tics, resulted, according to Mr. William Roberts, in a larger percentage of Seniors taking math than ever before. I Computer Science was a lot of fun, and really worthwhile; it’s a different kind of math experience. We spent long hours at Trinity, but the satisfaction one can get from beating the computer in tic-tac-toe. and suc- cessfully completing a program, makes up for the time. ” The Science Department also continued to in- crease the variety of courses offered to students. An advanced chemistry seminar was added this year, while other recently developed courses like ecology were offered during each tri-mester rather than in only one. Mr. Jack Emery com- mented that the Science Department was now offering as many courses as possible in the pres- ent crowded conditions, but that the new Rob- erts Science-Arts Building, which will house ex- tensive lab space, would open up many new pos- sibilities. Significant changes marked the History De- partment offerings during the past year. Courses in U.S., Russian, and Japanese History were made two-term courses, and a group of one-term electives for the final tri-mester were added. For those taking U.S. History this choice included Black History, contemporary issues, domestic is- sues since 1945, and foreign policy since 1945. Courses in Japan today, Russia today, and con- temporary issues were offered to Seniors who took the two-term Russian history, Japanese his- tory, and contemporary issues courses. ‘White Politics’ is what he’s doing by jim McDonald Both groups could also take independent study, or design and work on a group project, while sixth formers could fulfill their history require- ment through community service. The Arts Department, also anxiously awaiting its facilities in the new building, continued to expand this year. Courses in photography were an example of the response new offerings in art and music got, as almost three times the number of students signed up this year than in the pre- vious ones. An uncredited, but long-awaited typing course was also established this year. Although offered on a fairly makeshift basis, with students supply- ing their own typewriters, the program, which ran for two separate tri-mesters, was a start and offered many Kingswood students a useful skill. 1970-1971 was a progressive year for the Kingswood curriculum. Hard work and a flexible attitude on the part of the faculty led to a greater variety of courses than had ever been offered before at the school. It was a year of continued change and hopefully a year which established the need for constant change as Kingswood moves into the future. The headline to the left is from an article published in the Sunday Courant Maga- zine written by Senior Jim McDonald. Jim was working on an independent study- in journalism with Kingswood News advi- sor Mr. Warren Baird when he submitted an article on Let’s Vote 18 chairman Ed Forand to the Courant magazine. The ar- ticle was accepted, and saw print in the November I issue of the magazine. Rah, rah. Rah Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah! Rah Rah Rah! RAH! RAH! RAH! SO WHAT! So what? So what is school spirit? Is is merely the yelling and screaming at a football game? Or the defen- siveness when someone talks about “Kingswood boys”? Or is it more? One day after a basketball game three rather unruly students from the opposing school ac- costed me outside the gym and shocked my sen- sibilities with a rather harsh and rather obscene denunciation of my school, my life, and my body. I didn’t understand why they were so up- set. After all, I had only watched the game. And after all, it was only a high school basketball game. And after all. it doesn’t really affect me as an individual except for some brief disappoint- ment. And after all, their team had won. What I did was I walked away without uttering a word. Moral of the Story: Don’t lose any basketball games. High school athletics is like a James Bond novel. You can get your jollies very safely by reading (or watching) other people get theirs knocked about. And again, like a James Bond novel, you can’t take it too seriously or you’ll be stuck in a dream world. School spirit is allright, I guess, as long as you don’t really believe in it. Brian was a Assistant in charge of Ropes and Wires for Wilma the Wonderful Wire Walker. He frequently got very depressed. John was an Algerian slave trader who corres- ponded with his sister who lived in Cleveland. John’s sister was a belly dancer at Rocco's Alge- rian Emporium, a sleazy Cleveland dive. John’s sister’s name was really Miriam, but for business reasons she changed it to Bubbles. She had heard that all belly dancers were named Bubbles. One day John received a letter from Miriam (Bubbles). The letter said “Cleveland is a great place to live. You should give up slave trading and move here. There are lots of nice girls and you can settle down and raise a family.” John saw the logic in his sister’s proposal and liquidated his holdings and prepared to move to Cleveland. Unfortunately, one of the slaves John had traded escaped from her master and killed John. Moral of the Story: Don’t move to Cleve- land. What I’m trying to say is keep things in per- spective. Realize that your first loyalty is to your- self and your own sense of values. Cheer and yell, sure, but always remember that you come first. School spirit has a role in the seventies, but its just not as important as it used to be. Today’s students are more aware, more concerned, and more individualistic than ever before. Mass senti- ment is on its way out. Individual responsibility (is on its way in. Today's students realize that there are other priorities more important than turning out for the game against the arch-rival. Perhaps there is a pollution hearing at the state capital the same day. Which is more important? Students will have to be asking themselves that question many many times. A balancing of prior- ities. Its nice to have a good team, but its a little nicer to have a nice school, and a nice world. School spirit just won’t be that important any- more. That doesn’t mean that the crowds or the enthusiasm will diminish. Just that students will realize their relationship to the team and the school and evaluate it in comparsion with their values, hopes, opportunities, and ideals. Rah. rah, rah will be around for quite a while.
