Macfarlane Principal Wfyt Bebtcatton We, the class of 1959, dedicate with gratitude this volume of the MASACKSIC to Hugh O. Macfarlane. His direction and encourage- ment have developed in large measure the students ' responsibilities as citizens of school, community, and nation. Jfflesigage You have chosen a very significant theme for your Yearbook, for Time is a commodity mote precious than gold. Without it the finest laboratory is useless to the scientist, and the costliest paints are worthless to the artist. Without it no lesson could be taught, no business built, no illness cured. It is the one indispensable ingredient in any undertaking. Perhaps lately you have wondered, Where has it gone, this year? Time never went so fast before. I say to you that from now on each year of your life will rush by more quickly than the one before with little time to learn, to accomplish, to cherish family and friends, to see the world, to succeed. How priceless, then, is this gift of time! How foolish it is to waste any moment! In this space age we have been able to shorten time. We can circle the globe in hours, we can speak to the world in seconds, but we cannot stop time. We can use it, we can save it, but there is only one way we can keep it: spend time wisely and it is yours forever, held fast within you in the form of knowledge, good memories, emotional maturity, spir- itual depth, and success attained; squander it, and it escapes you never to be recaptured. And so my highest hope for you, the Class of 1959, is that you make good use of the time that stretches out before you. Sincerely, Htt jforetoorfc Time alters and transforms our lives both physically and mentally. As children, we see life as a curiosity, and the learn- ing we receive is transmitted to us through our parents and immediate surroundings. We grasp at new ideas and stumble over the obstacles in our narrow paths. Time passes, and we mature. We become the youth, the leaders of tomorrow. This giant step from childhood to youth presents many problems, and we often become confused and frustrated. Our private and secluded lives disappear and a new, bigger world opens its doors to us. We seek the meaning of these new horizons and desire to become a part of them. Our curiosity develops into reasoning and logical thinking, and the complexities of life become an intimate part of our selves. Developing from this trying stage into adulthood is difficult. We examine our lives and our ideals; we discard many prejudices; we look toward farther heights. Time fashions our lives; it nourishes and strengthens our knowledge, and it gives life a deeper meaning. Thus we develop from the awed child to the mature adult. On the threshold of our challenging world, life becomes a reality. We plan our future education and careers which will make us a part of this modern age in which Time plays its important role. Have you carefully thought of the most apparent aspects of this year ' s theme, Time ? Are not the past, the present, and the future equally important to each of us? Have we not learned from the past, are we not engaged in the present, and do we not hope for the future? Is not education concerned with just this? Only as we profit by past human experience, as we apply ourselves diligently to what we face in the present, and as we plan for the future, can we hope to assume our proper places among the select company of nature ' s highest creation, Man. As we travel forth through this maze of time, our hopes are for a bright and success- ful future. May that brightness and success be in God ' s will for each of you. HOWARD G. HERRSCHAFT One probably realizes most acutely the value of time when he looks back at op- portunity to which he failed to respond adequately. Fortunately, most of us have long years ahead in which lost opportunity can be reclaimed and developed. Time is one factor, only, in the develop- ment of the opportunity which is ours. Basic to true happiness are determined, purpose- ful work, faith in the worthiness of our goals, hope in the outcome of our efforts, respect for ourselves, and love for our fellows. I wish true happiness for each of you. HENRY CONE The class of 1959 will soon terminate its formal education in the Public Schools of Longmeadow. You should now be looking forward to opportunities for further achieve- ment and more worthy self-expression. Dur- ing the past four years, you have made new friendships, cultivated new tastes, and ac- quired fresh visions of truth. With these tools you face opportunities of a glorious age. Whether this glorious age is made or marred will depend on habits which you have acquired in the home, church, and school. In addition to the education you have attained in school, take friendship, co-opera- tion, and service into the future; and your glorious age will be transformed from a vision to a reality.

With his excellent guidance, the Class of 1959 has established many precedents which we hope will be of benefit to the school. We are truly indebted to him for making our years at Longmeadow High School most successful. Miss Hoxie, one of our former teachers, and Miss Baird, our school librarian, have worked with Mr. Josselyn directing our class and have been of invaluable assistance to us.

Along with the hammering and riveting in the almost completed building, the freshmen added to the confusion. Yes, we were those freshmen. We managed to keep stiff upper lips throughout that first grueling year and we finished the year with flying colors. Our first project was to organize our befuddled selves. Oh! what bewildered and pathetic creatures we were! How we remember those months of frustration when ... we suddenly realized that we had taken the wrong lunch period; we forgot what class was next; we wandered about looking for room seven and our science class. So you see, we did need some general organiza- tion. Under the wise guidance of Mr. Louis Josselyn, we held our first class election in October. Ed Mulkerin became our first class president and Sally Wilson, the invaluable vice-president. Our efficient secretary was Sue Streeter, and the always calculating John Twigs Cox headed the financial department. During December the History Department held the Freshman Essay Contest in co-operation with the Long- meadow Men ' s Club. Louise Tincher, Elaine Rachele, and Vonla Burman received the first, second, and third awards, and ten other noteworthy freshmen won honor- able mentions. Among other highlights of the year were the extra- ordinary lunches that were prepared with delicacy. Oh, the day Spanish Lima Beans were our rations for lunch! Can we ever forget that? We really can ' t com- plain too much though — we haven ' t had them since! Between boycotts and can we have a second helping, please? , our cafeteria staff managed nobly. Thanks for putting up with us little monsters. 1956 was ushered in joyously. The new year brought with it midyear exams which came and went, not any too soon for most of us. When the results of these tests were received, the change was amazing — freshmen were actually studying during free periods. Sorry, have to talk to you after I finish this algebra problem, be- came a familiar refrain. The first annual Girls ' Sport Night was held in April under the able direction of Mrs. Janice Wolcott. All awaited the event with great anticipation, especially the boys whose curiosity was aroused by the daily notice: Please bring your flashlights to practice tonight. In- cluded in the program were tumbling, folk dancing, and the pressure-packed basketball game. The evening was a tremendous success, climaxed by the awarding of the trophy to the White Team. In May we began preparations for the Spring Swing , the first freshman dance at the High School. As we danced around the newly- waxed floor of the cafeteria that unforgettable night, we were slightly con- scious of the aroma of Friday ' s filet of sole. Nevertheless, a good time was had by all and the dance put us into the black financially. It was our final swing out of a successful but slightly haphazard freshman year. We left for our summer vacation in June with the blessing of our teachers and hope for a rewarding sophomore year. SOPHOMORE YEAR Our sophomore year got under way with the class elections. Ed Mulkerin became our president for the second consecutive year; Mike Canter, our diligent vice- president; and Sue Streeter was re-elected secretary. The still calculating Twigs Cox returned to his position as treasurer. Establishing the tradition of receiving class rings while sophomores was the highlight of the year. Natur- ally, the seniors were not too pleased by the thought that lowly underclassmen would be wearing the same school rings as they had; however, we were very proud of our- selves. To celebrate a successful football season, our class sponsored a Touchdown Twirl. Again we came out on top financially and we added to our already sumptuous treasury. On April 12 we visited the Land of Dixie. The second annual Girls ' Sport Night revolved around a south- ern atmosphere. It was highlighted by performances on the apparatus, tumbling, and a basketball game. The 49 evening was concluded with the victorious Jet Team receiving the trophy. As the end of our sophomore year arrived, thoughts of becoming upperclassmen were foremost in our minds. For two years we had been the underdogs ; soon it would become our privilege to join the seniors as the school ' s leaders. JUNIOR YEAR Our junior year! What a year to remember ! The class officers were elected in the fall. Ed Mulkerin re- turned to his perennial office as president, with Bob Kittridge as his capable vice-president. Pert Kathy Wells was elected as secretary, and Twigs Cox, with that dollar sign still showing, again settled back to the office he had occupied during the past two years. A new policy was initiated this year. An executive committee was founded to conduct class business more expediently. In the field of school activities the juniors kept very busy. Under the leadership of Amy Young, the Red Cross Club had its first successful year; Miss Erickson organized the Cycloramists, who created the scenery for the annual play; the first debating society of Long- meadow High School was started, with two junior class- men holding prominent positions: Jerry VanVoorhis be- came the president and Sheila Christie, the secretary. During the course of that year, many debates were held, and interest in the club grew. In the spring, three rep- resentatives, John Kane, Ed Kaufman, and Jerry Van- Voorhis were sent to the Model Congress held at Ameri- can International College. Representatives from all parts of New England met to introduce individual bills to the Congress. Jerry received honorable mention at this con- vention for his bill entitled Presidential Disability. In the realm of sports the football team had a some- what depressing season; however, the basektball and hockey teams, with excellent records, compensated for it. In spring sports, the baseball team brought Longmeadow High School into the limelight with an undefeated season. During that year the teams from the high school were chosen to enter the Massachusetts Small School Tournament and the Pioneer Valley Soccer League, both honors stimulating school spirit and pride. There was much spirit, too, in our first high school majorette, Car- olyn Gregory. In keeping with the winter season the Dramatic Club presented January Thaw . The unforgettable Peter Russell played the lead role, and other juniors — Jerry VanVoorhis, Wendell Schmidt, John Kane, Mike Canter, and Sheila Christie were in the supporting cast. The spring of 1958 was a glorious one. We held our Junior Prom on May 10. Elaborate decorations were designed and extensive publicity aided the overwhelming ticket sales for the dance. Howie Nannen was kept busy as the chairman of the prom. At 8:00 P.M. Saturday night the girls were gallantly escorted to An Affair to Remember . Pretty Carolyn Gregory was crowned Queen, and her date, the proud King. Mr. Ward, the new director of music, held a Spring Concert, which was a milestone for the Music Depart- ment. Included in the program were selections by the Glee Club, Freshman Chorus, Band, Orchestra, and sev- eral soloists. Distinguished among the latter was the performance of Jean Norton, a very fine pianist. The outstanding talent of Richard Levine was given expres- sion in his beautiful hymnal composition, which was sung by the Glee Club. As another part of the activities in the Music Department, the Girls ' Chorus had the pleasure of entertaining both Blueberry Hill School and the Junior High School at separate concerts. The music for those programs was written by Rogers and Hammerstein. On April 15, 1958, the girls took a trip Around the World in One Hundred and Twenty Minutes . The third annual Sport Night, supervised by Mrs. Wolcott, was heralded as the climax of the girls ' athletic program. There were such highlights as performances on the ap- paratus, gymnastics, and the unforgettable tableaux. What a beautiful sight these statues were — but that ' s not the half of it, is it, girls? Many members of our class had become outstanding students. These people were honored during the junior year with special awards. Jim Lawsing received the Harvard Book Award; Carolyn Gregory was selected as the Governor ' s Aide for the Eastern States Exposition; Bobby Kittredge was awarded the Williams Book Award; 50 Jerry VanVoorhis and Jim Lawsing were chosen to rep- resent Longmeadow High School at Massachusetts Boys ' State and Kathy Wells, Lucy Alspach, and Alyce Atwood were chosen for Massachusetts Girls ' State. The Graduating Class of 1958 selected Kathy Wells and Ed Mulkerin as the Marshals for their graduation. This was an important event for our class. Next year we would be selecting class marshals from the Junior Class to lead our own graduation procession. SENIOR YEAR Our year to shine had finally arrived! We were top brass at last. The oft-mentioned graduation saddened us a bit; nevertheless, here it was, our final year in high school, and how we were going to enjoy it! That wonderful year we had long awaited was altered a bit by the frustration of preparing for college. The signing of applications, the reports from the colleges — these problems filled our year with anxiety and restless- ness. We did, however, manage to pull through and end the year with a memorable graduation. The leaders of our senior class had already become solid foundations in the building of the class. Ed Mul- kerin held the position of president for his fourth year; the statesman, Jerry VanVoorhis, was elected as vice- president; and Kathy Wells returned as secretary. Twigs Cox, the still calculating and ever popular treasurer, once more settled back into his honorable posi- tion, which he had so capably handled for three years. The Honor Society, under the guidance of Miss Maclntyre, elected Jerry VanVoorhis as president, Jim Lawsing as vice-president, and Ed Mulkerin as treasurer. This upper strata of intelligence held its alumni tea on December 22. Many graduates talked over old times with the present members and the faculty. The 1959 Yearbook staff had a difficult time, to say the least, getting the fourth edition of the MASACKSIC to press. Kathy Wells was a most efficient editor along with her staff editors, Lucy Alspach in the Literary De- partment, Pat Ashton covering sports, Nancy Carruthers, Art Editor, and John Kane in charge of the Business De- partment. The versatile literary staff seemed to be the pet peeve of the whole yearbook; they just never quite agreed on such subjects as QUOTES! Joan Bachulus and Jerry VanVoorhis became the out- standing editors of the Jet jotter, and through their hard work and originality, the paper reached its climax. With the able assistance of many Senior classmen, new ideas were incorporated in the paper and progress became their most important product. Another phase of our school activities was the ath- letic program. The football team lept through an un- defeated season! Good work, fellows! Paul Brouwer and Ed Mulkerin, the two co-captains, left the team that year; but their valuable know-how has been transmitted to the other members of the team. Everyone is confident that in following years success will be their motto. Out on the soccer field, Alex Klutch and Jim Lawsing led the bandy-legged team through a dynamic season. Who can forget our cheerleaders? Faithfully they appeared at every soccer and football game, spurring the boys on to victory. Vivacious Sue Lawsing was captain of the cheerleaders, and Nina Brecht and Penny Clarke were the other seniors on the squad. One of the most outstanding seniors was Bob Stahl, who received a certificate of honor for his exceptional work in the Merit Scholarship Examinations. Time marched on, and we approached the end of the long highway. We felt honored to have been the first class to spend all four years at Longmeadow High School. We had taken part in establishing the traditions of our school, proudly realizing that long after our names had been forgotten and our faces had grown dim, these ideals and traditions would continue to live in the corridors and classrooms of Longmeadow High School. As we, the Class of 1959, pause to reminisce about our years at Longmeadow High School, one bit of phil- osophy seems to stand out in our minds. Thus, as the departing seniors, we leave to you, our successors, this one epigram: Freshmen know not and know not that they know not. Sophomores know not and know that they know not. Juniors know and know not that they know. Seniors know and know that they know. 51 ttC ' ROZ jffl : : : K ' : ' ::: ..K m I v , J v JUNIORS 1960 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS P. Strople, Vice-President; J.

' MASACKSIC The staff of the 1959 MASACKSIC began its year ' s work with the selection of a timely theme. The individual departments, under the direction of Mr. Suher, Mrs. Pelczarski, and Miss Erickson, then planned their schedules accordingly and began burning the midnight oil. Advertisements were solicited by the Business Department while the Literary Staff prepared the Senior Section. The Art and Photography De- partments then co-ordinated this material in the layout designs and the formal and candid photographs. Congratulations to each staff member and advisor for his untiring efforts and contributions to the 1959 MASACKSIC. 70 MASACKSIC CHIEFS K. Wells and S. Shatz.

JET JOTTER This has been a year of firsts for the Jet Jotter. Through the efforts of Jerry Van Voorhis and Joan Bachulus, the following projects were initiated: the lengthening of the newsprint, adoption of a new masthead, and notable improvement in the articles. During the winter months, preparation was made for the commercial printing of the newspaper, and finally, in February, after arrangements had been made, the Jet Jotter issued the newspaper ' s first printed edition. With the invaluable assistance of the faculty advisors and the two editors, Jerry and Joan, the staff wrote, edited, and published many outstanding editions of the Jet Jotter. 72 JET JOTTER CHIEFS J.

STUDENT COUNCIL The 1959 Student Council directed several programs which in- creased the Scholarship Fund. Among these were the sale of mono- grammed sweatshirts and Longmeadow High School banners, as well as school book covers. As additional projects, the Council sponsored a talent show, the honor study hall, the publication of the Student Handbook, and Play Day. With the capable assistance of Mr. Shindler and Mr. Joly, their program was not only financially successful, but also of great benefit to the students. 75 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY First Row: A.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY In the fall of 1958, the sixteen members of the Longmeadow Chapter of the National Honor Society conducted an initial meeting with Miss Maclntyre, their advisor. Under her supervision the follow- ing officers were elected: Jerry Van Voorhis, president; Jim Lawsing, vice-president; Joan Bloom, secretary; Ed Mulkerin, treasurer. The members of the society are chosen by the faculty on the basis of scholastic achievement and personal merit, the members being re- stricted to outstanding students from the Junior and Senior classes. Throughout the year the Honor Society has sponsored such success- ful projects as the ■ December reception for alumni, members, and faculty and the coat check service at all school functions. Profits from the latter project supplemented the Honor Society Scholarship Fund which had been established at the beginning of the year. Activities for the future include a tutoring system, an orientation program for freshmen, and special initiation ceremonies for new members of the Honor Society. 76 HONOR SOCIETY OFFICERS J.

This controversial resolution was the theme around which the Longmeadow High School De- bating Club centered their year ' s program. Ki lf DEBATING CLUB OFFICERS D. Richter, Treasurer; S. Flint, Secretary; D. Poole, Vice-President; E. Kaufman, President. Under the leadership of Ed Kaufman, president; Debby Poole, vice-president; Sue Flint, secretary; and Dave Richter, treasurer; the group met weekly to discuss debating procedure and to participate in after- school debates. Once again, select members entered the American International College Model Congress which enabled them to apply their general knowledge in competitive debates. Their advisor, Mrs. Harrison, deserves much cred- it for the success of the group; her encouragement has stimulated continued interest in the Society. 77 DRAMATIC CLUB Thornton Wilder ' s farce, The Match- maker , opened the season for the Dra- matic Club. Mike Palmer in the role of Horace Vandergelder proved his talent admirably, and supported by the entire cast, did a commendable job. It is hoped that in future years weekly club meetings will be held and two pro- ductions Will be presented during the year. For his invaluable advice and master- ful direction, Mr. Lopes deserves much praise. DRAMATIC CLUB First Row: A. Leers, S. Baldwin, N. Benton, J. Raffeld, P. Carson. Second Row: J. Bloom, C. Reed, G.

Day 79 MUSIC The Music Department this year has had the opportunity of working under the direction of Mr. Burkle. He sponsored a Christmas program and several en- joyable spring concerts which included the performances of the Glee Club, Band, Orchestra, and individual talented students. A new policy of the department provided for the election of student directors, section leaders, and librarians for the aforementioned groups. The Glee Club has a membership of interested students from grades ten through twelve. This club rehearses twice a week, at which time either Mr. Burkle or the student director conducts the session. A Select Vocal Group, with a membership of twenty-five, was an outgrowth of the Glee Club and a new addition to the music curriculum. It has parti- cipated in the community school program and the Western Massachusetts Festival. The Band and Orchestra are two of the most important organizations within the department. The Band participated at all football and basketball games at the school. With the Orchestra it performed at the annual Christmas and spring concerts and the Massachusetts Festival. In addition to these activities, select ensembles performed at the dedication ceremonies of the recently completed section of the high school building. Also newly organized this year was a school dance band, which gave a special performance for the students as an introduction to their group. The Music Department has incorporated the interest and enthusiasm of the students, displaying their talents in their varied musical programs. 80 GLEE CLUB First Row: K. Evans, B. Burbank, J.

AUDIO-VISUAL AIDES CLUB Through the efforts of Mr. Pratt, the Audio-Visual Aides Club has become a significant school activity. Its main purpose, service to the faculty and student body, is evident in its many activities. The members are taught the methods of operation of motion picture projectors, tape recorders, and slide projectors and the principles underlying these devices. This modern equipment is available to these students during the week when initial training is given and skills are attained. These skills include the arrangement of sound and lighting systems, through which an interested student applies his knowledge in practical projects. 84 PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB First Row: E. Bloom, D.

The thirteen members of this year ' s club have been instructed in the fundamentals and fine points of photography and development of films. Two of the more enterprising members, Dave DuBuisson and Duncan For- dyce, have begun an extensive project of darkroom work and have done some color developing. The services of this club are available throughout the school to the students and faculty for scholastic and extracurricular activities.

RED CROSS CLUB This year the Red Cross Club launched their annual drive by initiating a novel campaign for funds. By nomina- tions of the students, three seniors were selected for both king and queen to be crowned at the first all school dance of the year. From these six candidates, the two finalists were elected through votes by donations from the student body. After the final tabulation, Steve Balthaser and Sue Lawsing were honored as the king and queen. Through funds from the drive, the group presented Christmas gifts to the children of the Buckingham Study Home and spon- sored a party at Monson State Hospital. Through the efforts of Mrs. Blakeborough, advisor, and Joanne Talbert, president of the organization, the Red Cross Club enjoyed a very successful year. 89 AIDES The many service organizations at Longmeadow High School have been invaluable assets to the students and faculty. In the library Miss Baird was assisted by interested students who undertook many routine tasks necessary to the physical operation of the library. Charging books, preparing new books for circulation, and properly shelving those returned were among the prin- cipal duties of the student assistants. As the year progressed, further responsibilities to aid in the efficiency of the library routine were added to the members ' duties. The students who participated in cafeteria work performed such duties as cashiering during lunch periods, making change and counting the receipts after each lunch, and serving lunch to the faculty members. In the main office one finds several students aiding the staff by operating the switchboard, ditto machines and telephone, and by sorting mail, typing, and filing reports. These student aides were greatly appreciated for their invaluable assistance in the library, cafeteria and office. 90 OFFICE AIDES Seated: C. Artioli, J. Bouffard. Standing: P. Mucha, P. Moriarty, E.

The French Club of Longmeadow High School was a noteworthy addition to the extra-curricular activities of the school. Under the direction of our three French teachers, Miss Maclntyre, Mrs. Alon- zo, and Mr. Houle, the club held its first meeting in February and elected the following officers: Mike Mazer, president; Ed Kaufman, vice-presi- dent; Andrea Leers, secretary; Liz Katten, treas- urer. Membership was extended to interested students taking courses in French. Highlights of the year ' s program included mo- tion pictures, slides, and lectures about France, the presentation of original skits, a pique-nique, and correspondence with French pen pals. These activities stimulated much interest and through the use of spoken French, the members have be- come les maitres de la langue. 92 LATIN CLUB First Row: J. Lanciaux, C. Morner, B. Milner, S.

FOOTBALL We, who were associated with Longmeadow High this year, witnessed the development of individual play- ers from all four classes into a well integrated and highly talented football team. This past season has been the most successful we have ever had on the gridiron. The Lancers finished the season with a record of five wins and two ties. The ties were the outcomes of the first four games, a fact indicative of the fine progress made by the players with the aid of Mr. Ursprung, Mr. D ' Agostino, and Mr. Harris of the coaching staff. In the next three games, the Lancers emerged victorious and went on to an undefeated season. This was no great surprise to those of us who closely followed the squad ' s progress. The fine exhibition of talent and sportsmanship on the field of play made all of us proud of our vic- torious football team. The first game on the Lancer ' s schedule was played against Commerce. Due to good blocking and running, the Lancers won an impressive 30-6 victory. Sophomore Al Stewart clicked for three T.D. ' s and averaged about six yards a carry. Quarterback Paul Brouwer ' s passing added considerably to the number of yards gained. On their next outing, the Lancers played to a 6-6 dead- lock against Lee. Offensive end Glenn Snyder, defense- man Dick Murphy and linebacker Bob MacDonnell played brilliant ball during the hard fought contest. Fi- nally Paul Brouwer ' s aerial to Dale Richter broke Lee ' s twenty game winning streak by tieing the score. The Lancers ' next game with Classical was a thriller which ended in an 8-8 tie. Once again sophomore full- back Al Stewart churned out the needed yardage for the only Lancer tally which was the result of a pass from Brouwer to Snyder. Brouwer then converted for the extra points by scooting around end. The following Saturday, the hard-charging Lancers met Palmer in a 22-0 victory. Paul Brouwer ran for two touchdowns and Dale Richter scored on an aerial from Bob MacDonnell; Eddie Mulkerin and Denny Robb added the extra points. In the fifth game, the Lancer eleven played host to the green of Enfield. Ed Mulkerin, Denny Robb, and Al Stewart scored behind a wall of excellent blocking set up by linemen Ron MacGregor and Mike Flemister. Paul Brouwer then threw a 20-yard aerial to Glenn Snyder for the final tally, resulting in Longmeadow ' s 24-12 victory over Enfield. In the last game of the season, the Lancer gridmen defeated Leicester 28.0. Quarterback Bob MacDonnell and halfback Bob Kittredge played a brilliant game. Paul Brouwer threw two touchdown passes to add to Al Stewart ' s and Ed Mulkerin ' s touchdown plunges. Post season selections for an All-Independent team in the Western Massachusetts area put Glenn Snyder and Paul Brouwer on the first team while Dale Richter, Al Stewart, Dave Harper and Maury Jocobson received sec- ond team honors. The many returning varsity players under the leader- ship of Denny Robb and Bob MacDonnell, co-captains, promise to produce another successful season for the Longmeadow Lancers. 108 PAUL BROUWER MAURY JACOBSON Coach Ursprung, Co-Captains Paul Brouwer and Ed Mulkerin, Coach D ' Agostino. 109 RON MacGREGOR JEFF GU1DETTE Ill • tt fc ■ «„ ' • ' • ' ' ' ■ ' ■■ - _ ' ' ■ ' l ■ ' .

SOCCER The 1958 Lancer soccer team was selected as one of the original members of the newly formed Pioneer Valley Soccer League. In addition to Longmeadow, the League consists of teams from West Springfield, Ludlow, Monson, and Chicopee. The Lancers, coached by Mr. Suher, finished the season with a very good record of eight wins, five losses, and two ties. This record is deceptive, however, as all five losses were by scores of 1-0 or 2-1. The highlights of the season were the Lancers ' 1-0 victory over Monson, which spoiled Monson ' s quest for the Pioneer Valley title, and the 1-1 tie against Ludlow, the final victor of the title. The Longmeadow team set two league records during the course of the season. Against Chicopee, Alex Klutch made the most goals in one game — 5, and in the same match the team scored the most goals in any one game — 8. Post season selections for the Pioneer Valley League All-Star team placed three Longmeadow players on the first squad. Co-captain Alex Klutch, Howie Nannen, and Dick Zanolli were the players chosen. Co-captain Jim Lawsing, Ed Mazer and Phil Stone were selected for the second team. 112 m i- :jt ' V- SENIOR SOCCER TEAM MEMBERS First Row: H. Nannen, J. Lawsing, A. Klutch, D. Zanolli.

FRESHMEN SOCCER The Freshmen Soccer Team, coached by Mr. Climo, finished the season with an undefeated record.

Cox, BASKETBALL The Lancer quintet, finishing fast with significant wins over Monson, Agawam, and Ludlow, ended the 1958-1959 basketball season with an 11-5 record. Longmeadow was led by senior captains John Twigs Cox and Paul Brouwer, outstanding guard Glenn Snyder, and sophomores Dale Richter and Ned Cummings. Senior reserves Howie Nannen, Jim Lawsing, Jeff Guidetti and Ed Mulkerin, plus junior Dick Murphy completed this year ' s Lancer squad. In reviewing the season ' s games, one comes to mind as the most exciting. Commerce, a top city team which reached the semi-finals of the Western Massachusetts State Tourney, narrowly won over Longmeadow, 52-51. Johnny Cox with 15 points, Paul Brouwer with 10, and Ned Cummings with 12 played sensa- tional ball. This game, and many others, proved that Longmeadow, coached by Mr. Haskell, was one of the toughest squads in the state. Other highlights of the season included an 80-point score against East Wind- sor and an invitation to play in the Western Massa- chusetts Small School Tournament. The statistics at the end of the season showed that Glenn Snyder was high scorer with a total of 231 points while Dale Richter was a close second with 202 points. John Cox was third with 183 points, Paul Brouwer fourth with 137 points, and Ned Cummings fifth with 131 points. 116 PAUL BROUWER JOHN COX HOWIE NANNEN JEFF GUIDETTE JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM First Row: J.

Sophomore Al Stewart and Juniors Mike O ' Malley, Bill Craft, Bob MacDonnell, Tom Astaldi, and Mike Palmer aided the team in setting its impres- sive record. These players appear to be good material for a tournament-winning varsity team next year. 118 FRESHMEN BASKETBALL The Longmeadow Freshman Basketball team, coached by Mr. Suher, ended the season with an impressive 7-4 record. High scorers for the team were Jim Pool, Jim Duval, and Bill Sunter. The team ' s record indicates that next year ' s Junior Varsity team should be out- standing.

Longmeadow ' s first opponent, Arms Academy, put up a stiff fight, but was finally overcome by the Lancers, 40-38. On the second night, Amherst Regional became the victim of Long- meadow and was defeated 47-38. This victory earned the Lancers the right to oppose Saint Joseph ' s in the finals where they were finally stopped by a score of 45-35. Although the Lancers lost out in the finals, they deserve much credit for the fine show of basketball skill and sportsmanship that was displayed throughout all three games. 121 HOCKEY TEAM First Row: K.

HOCKEY The Lancer Puckmen charged to a gallant finish and ended out the 1958-1959 hockey season in fine style, capturing first place in the Western Massachu- setts Suburban League. Longmeadow was led by senior captains, Alex Klutch and Bob Kittridge. Outstanding defenseman Dick Zanolli and sophomore forwards Phil Collins and Brian Edgerly completed the starting lineup. Don Jacques also contributed greatly on both line and de- fense. Senior Phil Stone and sophomore Bill Sproul, sharing the goal-tending duties, held the opposition to a total of twenty-six goals in thirteen games; the Lan- cers, however, penetrated their rivals ' defenses for forty-six goals. Highlights of the season included two wins over Holyoke and Chicopee. The latter victory made pos- sible the Suburban League title and a berth in the Massachusetts State Hockey Tournament. The Lan- cers were selected along with two other Western Mas- sachusetts teams and their performance in the tourney was the best of the year. The outlook for next year ' s team is very promising. Returning to the squad will be leading scorers, Phil Collins and Brian Edgerly, hussling Skip Baird and rugged John Zacheus whose efforts will produce another successful season. 122 ROGER WESTCOTT DON JACQUES CO-CAPTAINS ALEX KLUTCH AND BOB KITTREDGE 123 PHIL STONE BOB NEWELL ALEX KLUTCH BOB KITTREDGE HOCKEY RESULTS Longmeadow Chicopee 2 Longmeadow 4 Agawam 1 Longmeadow 4 Agawam Longmeadow 3 Holyoke 4 Longmeadow 4 Chicopee 3 Longmeadow 8 Agawam 3 Longmeadow 4 Holyoke 4 Longmeadow 7 Agawam Longmeadow 5 Chicopee 3 Longmeadow Holyoke 2 Longmeadow 2 Holyoke 1 Longmeadow 5 Chocopee .: 1 State Tourney Longmeadow Wakefield 2 i 124 125 ■ HOCKEY TOURNAMENT The Longmeadow High Hockey Team was selected, as Surburban League Champions, to play in the Massachusetts State Hockey Tournament as a representative of Western Massachusetts. Although they lost to Wakefield, 2-0 in the first round, the team played an outstanding game. In the first period both teams were held scoreless. This was due to the fine fore- checking of Skip Baird and Alex Klutch. After a twenty minute rest the Lancer puck-men returned to the ice with an even greater desire to win. Half way through the period Wakefield found an opening in the lower right hand corner of the net and connected for their first goal. The fine defensive checks of Dick Zanolli and the outstanding saves of Goalie Bill Sproul kept the team alive to enter the final period. This period was the clincher for Wakefield for ; with five minutes remaining, the skaters from Wakefield came up with a picture goal from the left side for their final tally. Longmeadow had many fine point blank shots and was only stopped by the excel- lent goal-tending of Paul Hubbard from Wakefield. Bill Sproul is especially deserving of credit for his fine job in keeping the high scoring team from Wakefield to only two goals. The Longmeadow Team was very grateful for having the opportunity to participate in this tournament and was also grateful for the visit of the Bruin ' s defenseman, Bob Armstrong, before the game. 126 127 ' ■ ir i i ft o ijjjS , V: C m P P iff}.

Last year ' s season marks the first time in Longmeadow High School history that an athletic team has been undefeated. Each game during the season was a warmup for the next successful game, for the pitching improved and the batting became more accurate. Alex Klutch, Dick Schneider, and Glenn Snyder shared the spot on the mound. Klutch with a four-win record and Schneider and Snyder with three wins apiece halted the opponents. Dick Zanolli, Ed Mulkerin, and Dick Schneider led in the total hits department. In post season selections, Longmeadow High placed two men on the Western Massa- chusetts Honorable Mention List. Versatile Glenn Snyder was picked for his fielding and pitching, while Dick Zanolli received recognition for his hitting and also for his fielding in the hot corner. This year, eight of the nine starters will be returning with hopes for another perfect season. ■ ■ 128 ALEX KLUTCH DICK ZANOLLI TOM EWING PAUL BROUWER ROGER WESTCOTT ED MULKERIN J Jg WK V V 1 ft i HI W JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL TEAM First Row: J.

Although as a team they were not victorious in any of the meets, certain individuals were consistent winners for the team. Bob Kitt- ridge in the low hurdles division and Bruce Aldrich in the mile run continually earned points for the team. The Lancer relay team, composed of Bill Cox, Doug Forth, Don Robb, and Dave Taylor, placed in the 880-yard relay of the High School track meet. The majority of last year ' s team will be returning this spring with much experience, and hopes for a victorious season are high.

Although the netmen did not have much practice because of bad weather, they still accumulated a fine record. Both losses were suffered at the hands of the Springfield College Freshmen. Don Drinkwater, who piloted the team to a successful season, was honored by being seeded as first man. Other men, including Jeff Guidetti, Sam Cady, and Don Baird, also compiled impressive records. Motivated by the same spirit and aggressiveness on the courts as shown last year, Longmeadow ' s tennis team can look forward to another successful season. TENNIS TEAM First Row: D. Baird, T.

GOLF During the 1958 golf season, the Lancer team was in its formative stages, for, out of the six men who played the scheduled matches, only two had any previous competitive experi- ence. However, as the season pro- gressed, the new members of the squad showed marked improvement and aided the team to compile a five win, three loss record. Promise of a victorious 1959 season rests in the talents of Phil Collins, Neil Day, and Zane Mirkin, and the enthu- siastic efforts of the coach, Mr. Haskell. 132 GOLF TEAM Mr. Haskell-Coach, P.

Regular bowlers were Sam Rickless, Richard Kagan, Mike Parker, Bill Buckley, Barry Kittredge and Dave Christensen. These same team members will be returning next year with hopes for a winning season. 133 LEADERS CLUB First Row: K. Wells, S. Lawsing, B. Chapin, S. Shaw, A. P. Brouwer, R. Kimball, S. Shatz, J.

The members have gained considerable leadership training which will serve them throughout their lives. In October the Leaders ' Club Sock Hop was held and, as usual, was one of the most popular events of the school year. A large percentage of the student body attended and enjoyed the informal recreation and dancing. In May, the Club planned an outing for a day at Ted Hilton ' s resort in Moodus, Connecticut, where all types of recreation were enjoyed by the members. Al- though the water was very cold, the outdoor swimming pool attracted the majority of the members for a splashing good time. This trip proved so successful that every- one hopes to return. The Leaders ' Club deserves a great deal of credit for its able assistance in the Physical Education Department. Miss Kelsey and Mr. D ' Agostino are most ap- preciative of the member ' s aid. 134 GIRLS ' SPORTS On February 11, the Girls ' Varsity Basketball Team played a game against MacDuffie School for Girls at the Trinity gym. This thrill- ing game ended in a 26-25 victory for Longmeadow. Alyce Atwood was the high scorer for the Lancerettes with 14 points. Betsey Burbank and Jo Peters had 5 points apiece and Kathy Wells added two points to complete the scoring. In a Junior Varsity game, MacDuffie emerged victorious by a score of 27-5. The following Friday, February 20th, the girls scheduled another game with MacDuffie, this time in the gym at the high school. The home gym proved unlucky to the girls, however, as MacDuffie won the game by a score of 25-16. On March 20, the Girls ' Volley- ball team held a playday with Mac- Duffie, South Hadley, and Westfield in the high school gym. Two teams represented each school in a round- robin tournament.
