r ’’ ' v! v ' y ' Eg, fete SnRJ IJ 1970 CLASS OFFICERS Richard O’Brien, President Diane Smith, Vice-President Linda Berthiaume, Secretary Leo Murphy, Treasurer The 1970 Maroon Leicester High School Leicester , Massachusetts I Administration Mr. Edward L. Skelley Principal Mrs. Pat Bukoski Clerk Mr. Edward J. Boule Asst. Principal Mr. Edmund F. Tierney Superintendent Mr. John E. Comer Asst. Superintendent Dedication ■HH Each year the senior class dedicates its yearbook to some deserving member of the faculty. This year is no exception. Seldom do we find a teacher so involved, concerned, and willing to help the students. His contributions to the Class of 1970 and, in fact, to all classes are myriad. As these words are wholly inade¬ quate in telling what he has done so, too, they fail in expressing the appreciation we feel. It is heart-to-heart when we say: The Class of 1970 could only have picked one teacher to whom to dedicate our yearbook—Mr. Normand LaPlante. NORMAND W. LaPLANTE The moment of truth arrived Class Day when President Richard O’Brien consummated the wish we expressed in late October. ofadUJidJohKSonj ihbert rcoh oJoyaelSurtfr arnaS renmio MamyGMcomet Jliari fiaruukemc-z lcha tO ' Bi QjohnQuy.

Officers Student Council Only in its second year the Student Council, under faculty advisor Normand LaPlante, has become a power¬ ful instrument in school policy-making. For instance, students who maintain an academic average of 88, are excused from taking mid-year and final examinations. Such constructive action in all facets of school life here at LHS has earned for this group the respect and admiration of the entire student body.

We ' re the second greatest with a sparkling 7-2 record. Hennessy, Rollins, Laventure, S.

Our pro style T-attack had Steve Corley at quarterback, Barney Hennessy and Joe Rollins at the half back slots, and Bob Pietro at fullback. Ends were Mickey Cooney and Brian Corley, Ellie Burtt and Paul Laliberte, tackles, Dave Miller and George Laventure, at guard and Leo Murphy Center. !P« 53 right, Hudson By their defense you will know them Those lousy penalties ' “Rollins is busting out all over and makes a trip to the promised land” 54 Harlan Dunn (20) lowers the boom on Hudson Catholic’s Jim McPartland. 55 Trans-Caribbean Scout Barry Lyon discusses prospects with Co-Cap¬ tains Bob Leno, Tom Lauder, and Steve Rowden.

Football The 1969 jayvee edition experienced a victory drought, but there was no faulting the club’s spirit. Coach Bob Nelson really cultivated this green-as-grass troupe as the season progressed. Too, the varsity ' s winning ways had a positive effect, generat¬ ing oodles of enthusiasm, especially with the fledgling frosh. So, it’s “SWCL, Be¬ ware” for 1970. These youngsters will be on the prowl and their scent is particularly sensitive to Pirates, Woolies, Spartans, Panthers, etc. Thus, Mr. Hippert will be the beneficiary of a ferocious wolfpack a season hence.

Cross Country The main topic of conversation along Sports Street here at school this year was the astronomical rise of our varsity foot¬ ballers to prominent heights in the tough Central Mass. Class C sledding. Few were aware that the serenity of our surrounding hills was being disturbed daily by a talented pack of plodders, Mr. Hamley’s X-country- men. And they were piling up points every bit as profusely as were Brian Corley and Barney Hennessy on the gridiron. Ever hear of Timmy McGrath. You will!!! Mark our words. This descendant of Mercury may well one day break the 3:50 barrier for the mile. And breathing down his back will be stretch-kicking Ron Sutkus. The crystal ball predicts a bright future for Hamley’s Harriers. Geritol’s Richie O’Brien relaxes after an exhaust¬ ing day in the rarefield air of Aksnebumskit Hill in Paxton.

Coach Ed Hippert proved again he has a magical wand. Our front- liners were forced to the limit of endurance, a situation necessitated by a shallow bench. That the starters persevered to the Lunenburg demise in the District III playoffs was in¬ deed a remarkable feat. Now there’s that fabulous jayvee legacy (17-1) to crow about. Don’t worry, all signposts read, “Boston Garden, 1971.” Coach Ed Hippert conducts a powwow with Co-Captains Steve Corley and Barney Hennessy. “Quintessence” is the word that we have taken to describe the 1969-70 basketballers, shown, seated, from left: Joe Rollins, Richie O’Brien, Steve Corley, Coach Ed Hippert, Barney Hennessy, Mickey Cooney, and George Laventure.

Be¬ cause these are the ’69-’70 holdovers who will, we believe, amply fill the voids left by the departure of such acknowledged brilliants as Richie O ' Brien, Steve Corley, and Dennis Hen- nessy. No doubt about it, the varsity was decimated by June graduation. Scripture says, “With faith you can move mountains,” and the players pictured here are certainly among the faithful. Therefore, the might and main of Hippert’s Hustlers will continue to echo around the surrounding hills. Paul Laliberte—6-0, 220 J.V.

That was nary the case this season with Coach Joe Carlo- magno’s star-studded collection. “Hanging from the rafters” was the only way to describe the tournouts that saw these fledglings roar to an amazing 17-0 record before Wachusett, dad-rat-’em, provided a rude hump in the finale. Coach Ed Hippert’s steaks will never taste any juicier as he envisions implementing his shat¬ tered varsity corps with these mini-Maraviches.

And the molder? None other than Coach Connie Salminen who had these kids soaring higher than Neil Armstrong and the boys. This Le¬ merise gal, though, is something else—a selection to both the Sutton and Deerfield All-Star teams, she was awarded MVP at the latter invitational. Kudos, Nanc, and to all your teammates for the far-flung fame that has come our way because of your sparkling exploits. Also, a last and well-deserved hurrah for Miss Salminen, the prime architect of this near-invincible juggernaut.

Before the season started, Coach Hamley went to a clairvoyant who had this team forecast: “Worse disaster than the Johnstown Flood.” Unshaken, Mr. Hamley prepped his underlings on the Holy Cross boards and the boys began to think big- time. They acted that way once the season be¬ gan. Even Inter-High power North High, run¬ ning back-in-the-pack, still has boys with dam¬ aged retinas from an excessive amount of kicked-up cinders. We can only hope that this front-running habit will now repeat itself from year to year. t i Coach Hamley and three solid reasons — Richie O’Brien, Leo Murphy, and Jay Doherty—why Leicester’s track fortunes are on the upswing.

K+M H‘i ' IPw ’■ jyi iPPygKLj i ' ,.- i i2L II Nina Hyytiainen Historian Class History As we near the end of our four short years at Leicester High School, we find that there are many experiences we may never forget. We entered as timid freshmen in 1966, fully unaware of what we may have gotten into if we followed the advice of the upper¬ classmen. With the help of Mr. Hippert, we elected our class officers: President —Steve Corley Secretary —Richard O’Brien Vice-President —Gail Vancelette Treasurer—Laura Dudley I can still remember Mr. Hippert’s words, “The freshmen mere¬ ly exist.” So we existed thorough our first year although not completely unnoticed, for 22 varsity and 17 j.v. positions were held by members of our class. This was the year in which the varsity basketball team was led into second place in the Districts by Mr. Hippert. Al¬ though no positions on the team were occupied by members of our class, we still were proud to be a part of a victorious team with a record of 17 wins and 8 losses. The year ended with thanks and we relaxed through the summer. All too soon September arrived and we began as sophomores. With Miss Mulvihill as our class advisor, we elected: Joe Rollins —President Bruce Magnuson —Treasurer Peggy Mercer— Vice-President Linda Berthiaume —Secretary The year’s sports season was superb. First of all, the foot¬ ball team, with six members of our class supporting it, ended with a 4-4 record. The girls’ basketball team, with Nancy Lemerise as our con¬ tribution, captured the SWCL title ending with a remarkable 14-2 record. The girls again flabbergasted everyone with the softball team winning the league championship. The baseball team earned the second-place trophy in the league with the help of eight members of our class. The cheerleaders chalked up second place as Frontier Regional and first place at Prouty with the assistance of Peg Mercer, Cindy Culver, and Kathy O’Neil. The golf team, with three members of our class, ended with a 4-4 record in only their second season. And last, but certainly not least, our boys’ basketball team reached the highest honors of all. Not only being champions of the Clark Tournament and gaining the SWCL title but also winning the District III Playoffs, which qualified us for the State Championship Semifinals at Boston Garden. Three mem¬ bers of our class had a part in these victories. Our opponent at the Garden was Westford Academy who, in the final seconds of play, downed us, leaving the score, 55-54. The loss was heart-breaking but was sadly accepted with the thought that we’d done our best. The spring came and we found it was time to order our class rings and to make arrangements for our class picnic at Whalom Park. We spent a pleasant afternoon going on rides, roller skat¬ ing and overindulging in hotdogs, ice cream and tonic. Summer returned. With our arrival back in September, we realized that we were beyond the halfway point. Again with Mr. Hippert as our class advisor we elected: Richard O ' Brien— President Sharon Schofield — Treasurer Laura Dudley— Vice-President Loe Murphy — Secretary As in the past two years the sports seasons were outstand¬ ing. In basketball, the girls’ record was 13-2 with Linda Berth¬ iaume and Nancy Lemerise as our representatives. The boys’ final record was 22-2. Their accomplishments: SWCL title, champions of Large Schools Division of Clark Tournament, and second-place holders in the districts. In baseball and softball, the boys ended with an 8-5 record and girls, 9-3. The football team, with 11 members of our class, recorded 2 wins and 6 losses. The cheerleaders again walked off with first place at Prouty and second at Frontier Regional. The golf team, in their third season, is deserving of recognition with their record of 8 - 1-1 and the track team tried hard. Several class meetings were held in preparation for the Jun¬ ior Prom. It was held at the Bancroft Club, Auburn, on May 9. Peggy Mercer was chosen as queen, and in her court were Bonnie Richer, Nancy Hadley, Cindy Culver, and Laura Dudley. The prom marked our last important event of our junior year. The summer, as usual, passed much too quickly and the return in the fall was perhaps the most frightening of all. With the thought that we were now the big guys, we embarked upon our senior year taking new responsibilities upon ourselves. With Mrs. Bosse and Mr. Sullivan as class advisors we elected: President Richard O ' Brien Secretary — Linda Berthiaume Vice-President — Diane Smith Treasurer —Leo Murphy Early in the year, it was time to begin work on the Senior Class Play. Under the direction of Mr. Sullivan, “Brides To Burn,” came off beautifully thanks to our troupe of illustrious actors and actresses. They were Tim Comerford, Stephen Pro¬ vost, Linda Berthiaume, Karyn Lemerise, Peter Hennessy, John Quy, Peggy Mercer, Kathy Plaud, Mickey Cooney, Diane Smith, and Mary Lou Vinlove. If a beauty contest were held, 1 think it would he a tie be¬ tween Tim Comerford and Steven Provost (who is better known as Princess Boogie-Woogie). The Class of 1970 will remain as one of the most outstand¬ ing groups, not only for being great athletes but also noteworthy scholars. There are 17 senior members of the National Honor Society. Other honors were awarded to Lianne McCallum, DAR Representative; Susan Cherry, outstanding Business Student Award from State Mutual; Diane Smith, Student Gov¬ ernment Representative; and Nina Hyytiainen, Women’s Club Creative Literary Achievement Award. Richard O’Brien, Leo Murphy and Russell Anderson were chosen to attend Boys’ State and Nancy Lemerise to attend Girls’ State. During November, the Student Council went to the School Committee with what we thought of as a “We might as well give it a try” idea of going to Washington on a class trip. To our amazement, they came hack with the idea of being not so out of the question. On April 20 th at 7:00 in the morn¬ ing we started to Washington on the most exhausting trip ever. When we arrived, there was quite a problem getting settled in our rooms. Each morning, we started with a hearty meal and began a day of sightseeing. When we returned from the tours, we went straight to our rooms to rest for the next day. A great deal of thanks goes to our chaperones: Mr. LaPlante, Mr. Baziliauskas, Mrs. Avedian, Miss Gleason, Miss Salminen, M iss Debs, Mr. Moore, and Mr. Sullivan. With such a spectacular record in sports so far, our last year is no exception. The boys’ basketball team ended with a 16-5 season’s record, winning the SWCL title and qualifying for the semi-finals in the District and three playoffs. The girls’ basketball record, an overall 20-3, was just as great. Nancy Lemerise earned the MVP award, winning the foul¬ shooting contest and the honor of making the all stars. The football season was an outstanding record of 7-2 with George Laventure making the All Stars (.lass C and Joe Rollins and Barney Henessey gaining honorable mention. The golf team placed first in the league and the track team had its most impressive season ever. Richard O Brien won top honors in the Districts by throwing the discus 126 feet. The cheerleaders competed at Prouty and had another success¬ ful year by capturing third place. As we leave Leicester High School, the 184th graduating class, we would like to express our appreciation for the help and advice given us through our four years by our teachers, parents, and friends. 33 Class Will We, the inmates of the Class of 1970, not having any lawful amount of intelligence, being of warped mind and crippled body, hereby testify this to be our Last Will and Testament.

It was our first flight on the 747 and our pilot, Charlie Ent- wistle, gave us our orders to have the people fasten their seat belts for take¬ off. Our first destination was to be New York City, having a stop-over of about three days. I learned that a num¬ ber of executives and their secretaries were on their way to a convention to be held at the Waldorf Astoria. In¬ cluded in this group were Mark Day, president of the Sleepytime Mattress Company, and his secretary, Nancy Bis- cornet. About five seats down sat John Campbell, who was the chief of the be ans and franks department at the Campbell Soup Company. As I con¬ tinued down the aisle, I heard the un¬ mistakable voice of George Laventure who told me that he owned a turkey farm in Louisiana. One of his farm¬ hands was that Southern belle, Diane Smith, who was the chief cotton picker of the plantation. I guess her dream of wanting to work in the sun had come true after all. George also told me that Peter MacDonald owned a pig farm in a nearby county. As I made my way down the aisle, I was suddenly overcome from behind. It was Kevin Kristolaitis and Phil Mill- ette who had decided to hi-jack the plane to Alaska where they expected to meet Dale Dufault, who was wanted in nineteen states for bigamy. On ar¬ rival in Alaska, I learned that Russell Anderson owned a rabbit farm close by, and that he and Jay Doherty were working closely together on a thesis entitled “How to Overthrow Everything In One Easy Lessen.” They had re¬ ceived much of their material from George Savage who owned a respectable book store. On the way back the pilot decided to make a two-day stop at Hawaii for fuel. With two days off I decided to go to the surfing champion¬ ship which was being held during that time. The defending champion was Scctt Munson who was expected to take the title again. He was competing against Dennison Earle who was a newcomer to the sport. On the way to the airport, I picked up some souve¬ nirs at a neighborly pineapple stand which was owned by Charlene Canane. On returning to the mainland we had a four day stop-over at Los Angeles. I decided that this was a great time to see some of Hollywood. The first place I went to was a discotheque on the Sunset Strip owned by Ken Schold. Some of the go-go girls were Roberta Provost, Dcnna True, Marie Fitzpatrick, and Kathy O’Brien. The main attrac¬ tion, though, was a group which called themselves Pontius Pilate and the Cru¬ cified, headed by Phil Joinville as Pontius Pilate. As I was leaving the night club, I noticed a great commo¬ tion in the far end of the parking lot. I ran to the scene only to witness the appearance cf a mo torcycle gang who called themselves ‘ The Poison Cobras.” The Easy Rider of the gang was Paul Colby on his chopped-down Harley 50 cc. Some of his followers were the notorious Dennis Ward, Tom Doane, and Mike Martin. Soon, they left, and ' I decided to take in a movie before having dinner. It was an Italian film starring Boh Pietro, who was a cross between Marcello Mastriani and Mick¬ ey Rooney. Co-starring was Peggy Mer¬ cer as his leading lady. Before the movie, I bought a soda from Peter Williams, the soda jerk. He told me about a great new coffee house down the street which was run by Gloria Croft and Marilyn Flint. Bonnie Rich¬ er and Jim Minckler supplied the entertainment. On special occasions they had George Duquette who played a mean bongo drum. After the movie I was hungry, so I went to one of the better known restaurants which was owned by Lianne McCallum. When I arrived at the door, she greeted me and showed me to my seat. She told me that on her off days she was an assist¬ ant to the galloping gourmet. After what I considered to be a fairly atro¬ cious dinner, I went back to my hotel. Te next day was beautiful, so I decided to go shopping. I had heard about a little shop which was owned by Robin Mierzejewski. When I arrived, I was shown several of the spring line by one of the salesgirls who was Debby Progin. On leaving I literally bumped into Laura Dudley who had gotten into the revolving doors backwards. She told me that she was going to buy a dress in which to go to prison. She was being sued by the State of California for knocking down twenty-five tele¬ phone poles in a row. The pro secuting attorney was John Quy who was world renowned for his great ability to argue any point even if there wasn ' t one. The counselor for the defense was the fabulously wealthy Peter Hennessey, who was known for his sarcasm and dry wit. The next day was my last on the West Coast, so I went to Las Vegas. I went to a well-known gambling casino which was owned by the Frazier Brothers. When I went in, I left my coat with the hat-check girl, Rene Cohen. I went into the game room when all of a sudden the lights went down real low. Out came Bobby Brooks who was the casino’s answer to Tom Jones. All of a sudden there was a rush of girls from the back of the room who tried to get to the stage where Bobby was performing. Fortunately, they were restrained quickly by a cop, Gary Whit¬ ney, who was cn duty at the time. Among those in the group were M rie Bergin, Madeline Mahaney, and Linda Greenleaf. As soon as they were taken away for disturbing the peace, I con¬ tinued to watch the show. All of a sudden a huge noise came from the back and in came a group of ex-ecn- victs like gangbusters. Big Kev Gleiek was the leader of the gang and some of his accomplices were Kevin Goodrow and Danny DeStratis. Kate Plaud was Kevin ' s gun-moll. They took all of our valuables and started to leave when that Super Sleuth, Sue LaMotte, came in and ordered them to return every¬ thing in the name of the law. She was an agent for the F.B.I. When I arrived at the airport, I noticed a small commotion at the gate. There were television cameras and newspaper reporters. One reporter, Sharon Schofield, was interviewing a guy who was planning to be the first man ever to run all the way across country. It was Leo Murphy, the All- American track star. Jim Poirier and Tom McNamara, the cameramen, were busy taking close-ups of Leo’s feet which were to he the first feet to run across the continent. We were finally on our way back east, and I met some more of those people who were attending the conven¬ tion. One was Richie O’Brien who had been given the sole patent on artificial neck braces. Another was Gerard Cullen who showed me a gadget which he had recently invented. He 86 explained that you dial a number and you can get anyone in town on the other end of the line. I felt sorry for him, so I didn ' t venture to tell him that a guy named Bell had already in¬ vented the telephone a little over fifty years ago. Another was Dennis Cherry who was the dean of administration admissions at a well-known commercial art school on the east coast. As I walked down the aisle, I saw Ricky and Ronald Dennison, who told me that they owned an auction house, and that they had been collecting items all over the country for their next auction. They gave us a demonstration and, before we all knew it, we had auctioned off all our valuables at ridiculous prices. Then I recognized Sue Lajoie who had recently been ap¬ pointed commissioner-in-chief of plant¬ ing flowers on all the medians of the highways across the United States. She, together with Denise Laperle, Cail Van- celette, and Linda Poirier, were on a “Keep America Beautiful” campaign. They worked especially well with the problems of smog and air pollution. There was a small comm otion at the back of the plane. It was Michael Soo- jian who was the president of all the Brownies in the world, taking one of his troops on a trip. Evelyn Knight was traveling with him as an assistant. Our next stop was to be Chicago. On arrival at the airport, there was a great demonstration going on. Lee Hestad and Richie Tobin, the heads of the S.D.S., were in the middle of the riots. People were being pushed and shoved, and brutally beaten. There seemed to be no end to it until Cap¬ tain Karyn Lemerise and the National Guard came in and took care of the matter. But it couldn’t have ended with¬ out me being clobbered on the head and taken unconsciously to the nearest hospital in an ambulance which was driven by Walter Southard. Forry Irish was the stretcher-man on duty. It seemed that the siren was broken, so Walter had to use his own sound ef¬ fects to warn oncoming traffic of his whereabouts. The next thing I remem¬ bered was a nurse who was trying to find out my name and address despite the fact that I was feeling groggy from all the anesthesia. It was Gail Pat¬ ricks. I continued to recover through the superb efforts of Doctor Donna Dryden and her mental and physical therapist, Joe Rollins. It seemed that Joe had spent so much time at the hos¬ pital for car accidents that he decided to get a job there. On my last day at the hospital, Sue Lever who was the out-patient nurse, wheeled me out to my taxi which was driven by Wayne Mallet. We arrived at my hotel in a matter of minutes, even though the hotel was twenty miles away, and the bell boy, David LaPine, took my bags to my room. I had missed the plane home, so I decided to take in some sights. I went to a fight which was for the middleweight championship of the world. The contenders were Mickey Cooney, managed by Sharon Vancel- ette, and B. J. Lamb with Joyce Burtt as her sparring partner. The odds were that B. J. had a strong edge over Mickey. The next place that I went was a fashion show in which Karen Handley, Cindy Culver, Emily Carlos, and Kathy O ' Neil were top models. After the show I went back to my hotel and listened to the sports news given by Big A1 Baniukiewicz. It seemed that Brenda Barney had taken first place in the Kentucky Derby. Don¬ na Pomeroy came in a close second, but was disqualified for giving her horse pep pills. Elsewhere in the sports world, Sue Cherry had been selected most valuable player in the N.B.A. play-offs. Sue, the center for the New York Knickerbockers, was selected for the award almost unanimously. Also, in the baseball category, Nancy Leme¬ rise, the only girl shortstop in the major leagues, wounded Kenny Hawk Greenhalge fatally when one of her stinging line drives came to him in left field and hit him on the nose. On the golf scene, Don Gagncn won the U.S. Open, making it three major wins in the past year. The next day I was on my way back to New r York where I was to meet my plane to take off for Africa. When I arrived at the airport, I saw Leo Murphy running down the runway, panting. He only stopped long enough to say hello and recite a stupid poem and then took off again. When I arrived in New ork, I had to wait a day or two before leaving for Africa. I decided to look around and see some of the town which I had come to know so well. I went to the United Nations building where I received a guided tour from Nina Hy- ytiainen, a sort of girl page to the Finnish Ambassador. In my travels I met Alan Symonowicz who was serving as the Irish Ambassador? On leaving, I recognized Steve Grimshaw far above me. He was painting the flag poles of all the countries represented in the U.N. The next place I went to was a little art shop owned by Mike Shea. When I entered he was standing on his head in the corner reciting Hamlet’s soliloquy “To Be Or Not To Be. The next stop was the pharmacy for some medicine where Wayne Horne was the proprietor. He told me that Dennis Lamarche owned a chain of Stop and Shops around the country. Later on I decided to have my hair done at a shop owned by Joan Mantha and Nancy Garabedian. Judy Johnson was under one of the dryers, and had a lot of gossip to tell me. Don’t ask me how she knew that Tom Brennan was vice- president of a new playboy club, but she knew! On my way back to my hotel to pack, I noticed Walter Ku- zawa trying to bribe Diane Layte, a meter maid, to let him go without giving him a ticket. His charm and wit didn’t seem to be working, so finally he gave in and paid the fine unwill¬ ingly. As I walked down the street, I noticed a gypsy tea room and the name looked familiar, so I w T ent in. Madame Vinlove was analyzing Steve Corley who couldn’t understand why he had de¬ cided to coach the first all-girls’ foot¬ ball team in the N.F.L. Back at my hotel I turned the T.V. set on in the nick of time to see Tim Comerford. He was modeling kilts for a well-known name brand, but whenever he sat down in it the whole audience cracked up. Then some guy came on and whispered in Tim ' s ear. Tim quickly took the hint and sat in a ladylike position. All of a sudden a newsflash came on and they announced that Leo Murphy had run himself right off the end of a pier in New York harbor, but there was nothing to worry about since Barney Hennessy and his Fighting Irish rescue squad came along and fished him out. Leo was said to be resting comfortably in a nearby hospital. It was finally time to leave for Africa, and I took my place at the gate to greet the passengers. I met Nancy Hadley, a world-renowned gossip columnist who was on her way to Egypt to get the exclusive story of why Mark Hobby was tearing down the Creat Pyramid and rebuilding it. I chatted a while longer when I recognized Louise Perodeau. It seemed that her name had been changed to Sister Louise, and that she was on her way to the deepest, darkest jungles of Africa where she expected to meet Brother Provost, a missionary from the Fran¬ ciscan Order of Monks. As I boarded the plane, I realized that I had seen or heard about all of my friends from Leicester High. As the Statue of Liberty slowly began to sink into the horizon, I was glad that every American had the chance to choose their own way of life. 87 Late arrivals at Webster’s Treasure Island.

Senior Dinner-Dance 89 i� : TH E WH ITE HOUSE WAS H t N G TON TO THE 1970 GRADUATING CLASS LEICESTER HIGH SCHOOL It is traditional on commencement day to congratulate the senior class and to address all of the graduates in terms of what the future holds for then. I am breaking that tra¬ dition, and instead of congratulating and addressing the class as a whole, I would prefer to direct my thoughts to each of you individually, through this letter. If I had the opportunity to greet each of you individually, this is what I would say: Congratulations — on being who you are, a unique human being capable of making a special contribution to our nation and the world. Congratulations on being fortunate enough to have parents and teachers and administrators who care deeply about you. I don ' t have to tell you what the future holds for you. You know that life hus responsibilities as well as rewards, failures as well as successes, tragedies as well as joys. You know that our nation offers splendid opportunity -- and faces grave problems. On your commencement day, then, the important question is what you hold for the future. I am confident that your special and irreplaceable qualities of mind and heart and spirit will contribute to the building of a strong, free and just nation and u peaceful world. As you go forward you take with you best wishes and highest hopes. Awards . . . Members of the National Honor Society. 92 . . . Honors Gerry Cullan—Police Assn.
