' I 11! ■ lfcSs onamectaow f r t y.M H B . ,VJ tvladack adacRdic 1961 A MR. RALPH L. SHINDLER H cJjedi tu iccLiion The Senior Class wishes to recognize you, Mr. Shindler, for the guidance and exemplary leadership which you have demonstrated as a teacher and later as Longmeadow High School ' s first vice-principal. As advisor to the Student Council and the Traffic Squad, you have helped to foster our sense of unity and discipline. We are indebted to you for your patient understand- ing and your loyal friendship; no minute problem of ours is too small for your attention. We shall always appreciate your interest in us as individuals and with sincere admiration we shall associate you with our four years at Long- meadow High School. As members of the Class of 1961, you have been a most enthusiastic, in- spiring, and interesting group. Your contributions to Longmeadow High School were varied and many. In aca- demics, sports, music, newspaper, year- book — any field of endeavor — the Class of 1961 has shown great spirit and leadership. You have been a tremend- ous help in making the extra-curricular and academic programs stable and strong. Working with you has been truly a pleasure. I ' m sorry to see you go, but time marches on and we must move with it. For the past twelve years your lives have been considerably regulated and controlled by both home and school. Maybe too much so; but that twelfth step has been reached in the stairs of life and you are now ready for the next one. It is a big one and whether you step off into outer space or into a very secure position, it is my belief that you will know where you are going. Life has always been unpredictable and what it holds for each of you, no one knows. However, develop and maintain right-thinking — sane attitudes — in the face of the events that will crowd your days. Face the future with the same spirit, willingness, cooperation and enthusiasm you have shown at Longmeadow High School in the past four years and your rewards will be many. May God bless you. Respectfully, RAI RALPH L. SHINDLER The world, the race, the soul — in space and time the universe, All bound as is befitting each — all surely going somewhere. Walt Whitman J-oreward The world offers an infinite number of opportuni- ties for achievement. To attain personal satisfaction and permanent success, it is each person ' s responsibility to select and pursue a specif ic ' field of interest. Therefore, one must not only conquer physical space but also de- velop one ' s mental capacities to the fullest extent while striving for perfection as an individual. ■ JJ onorar y oDeai tli icaiion With sincere admiration and respect, we, the Class of 1961, proudly award this honorary dedication to Mr. W. Henry Cone, who has so capably performed his duties as Superintendent of the Long- meadow School System. We wish him as much success in the future as he has enjoyed during his first year. On our earth today a population explosion is taking place. Knowledge in many subject matter fields is growing at an ever increasing rate. Bold new scientific and technological developments, such as space flight, no longer greatly surprise us. As persons, we tend to see ourselves as being smaller and less significant than in the past. But, think a minute! Each of us is still significant, still important! A crowd is always made up of individuals — people like you and me! There is and always will be others, friends and loved ones, who depend upon us, who need us. Our friendly smiles and kind words will always warm the hearts of those with whom we share them. To live wholesome lives in today ' s exciting world, we cannot ignore the broad social and scientific forces which are changing our environment. We must have more knowledge of them and know how to deal with them effectively. These challenge the minds of all peoples. By the same token, we must not forget the meaning of friendli- ness, truthfulness, dependability, honesty, graciousness, humility, tolerance, and forgive- ness. These are matters of our hearts, the lifeblood of our souls. To the graduating senior, my congratulations and best wishes. Sincerely, Sincerely, • sj. W. HENRY CONE Superintendent of Schools ■ H SCHOOL COMMITTEE Mr. Richard Holter; Mrs. Charles Carter; Mr. Henry Frisbie; Mr. Quentin Reynolds; Mr. Robert Brigham. 1 The Longmeadow School Committee aims to provide Longmeadow youngsters an educational program which anticipates the conditions which they are likely to face as they go on to college or take on immediately their responsibilities and develop their opportunities as citizens in the American Community. However much old situations shift and new ones develop, as we stand at the threshold of the space age, this objective remains. Much new knowledge must be appropriately introduced into the curriculum. Em- phasis in accepted subjects requires adjustment to make room for additions. New teach- ing methods constantly become available — usually more quickly than do teachers equip- ped to apply them. Possible adjustments in the school program are constantly being scrutinized and studied by the Administration and considered by the School Committee. Because our youth pass through the school system only once, and deserve sound, proved instruction, adjustments are made in the curriculum with adherence to the old and prov- ed admonition: Be not the first by whom the new is tried, nor yet the last to lay the old aside. QUENTIN A. REYNOLDS Upon entering high school, each freshman class is assigned a member of the Guid- ance Department as an academic advisor. It is through the able assistance of these guid- ance counselors that the individual student learns to adapt himself to his new surround- ings and participate in all phases of the high school curriculum. Any particular problems which might arise are efficiently solved by informative conferences between the coun- selor and the individual. . ' .- ■ Space — that which is characterized by extension in all directions — boundlessness] And here we are, each occupying his share of it, each moving at his own pace in the direction of his own choosing. Never in history could one man ' s aim affect more profoundly the future of his fellows. Never was one individual more surely the potential savior of his world. Let us move wisely, now realizing our place is not bounded by town or state or nation, but reaching out, in mind and spirit to encompass all mankind. H. O. MACFARLANE Space has been defined as, That which is char- acterized by dimension. You, as graduates of the Class of 1961, have taken on dimension. During your twelve years of formal education, you have filled your space with knowledge, friendships, ideals and vis- ions of truth. For you, graduation is not the end of learning. Like the butterfly, which by continuing growth bursts its chrysalis and emerges a radiant creature, you will take on new dimension in the fields of business, the arts, science and technology. For you your position in space is where you wish to place it, and your dimension will be determined by ambition, courage, skill, enterprise and faith. WILLIAM A. DEXTER x:m, C naiidk MR. JUDD ' When I was in Europe . . MR. WARNER My wife didn ' t give me lunch money. Each student at Longmeadow High School patticipates in a comprehensive English program designed to develop and improve his composition, speech, and thought. Literary appreciation is in- troduced early to freshmen through the study of the short story and through generous samplings of world literature. The development of American literary and philosophical thought is traced in the sophomore year. To instill an un- derstanding of alien culture, the jun- ior classes concentrate on representa- tive English literature and thought. To complete a world survey, important literary works of various ages and na- tions compose the curriculum of senior English. MRS. WANEGAR Be careful what you want, you might get it. 12 MR. BARNUM I don ' t make the rules. I ' m not running a popularity contest. MR. BURKE ' There ' s a famous man in Russia, ' Nut Kita! MISS EATON In intellectual circles today The Longmeadow High School li- brary facilities are constantly expanding, and at present approximately three thousand volumes and forty periodicals are available for student and faculty use. With the assistance of Miss Baird and the Library Aides, material for re- search projects and books for arm- chair pleasure can be found. MISS JENSEN ' Let ' s look at this rationally.

' MISS MacINTYRE Oh, pauvres petits! My little Cherubs! MRS. LEAB Let ' s not have a knock-down 1 . drag-out fight! MRS. ALONZO BeQ-U-I-E-T! An excellent staff of instructors provides Longmeadow High School with its fine com- prehensive language curriculum. An inter- ested student may complete four years of either Latin or French. Each course gives insight to another age, culture, and tongue and creates respect for other people ' s ideas and customs. The first two years of each language concentrates on the mechanics of expression and pronunciation. The third and fourth years of study offer a broader scope of history and philosophy through the study of literary works of the greatest men of France and Rome. One language studies an ancient civilization, the other opens a path to a contemporary country. MR. HOULE Let ' s we correct our homework papers. To complete a student ' s secondary education the history department offers several basic courses. The first year is divided equally between a study of the three major levels of the American governmental system and a study of the geography of the -world. In the sophomore year, a detailed study of the development of western civilization is offered. A comprehensive course in American history is required of all jun- iors. In the final year, seniors may elect Modern Problems, a course covering the major political, social, and economic problems of America. Senior students showing aptitude and interest in Ameri- can history may substitute for Modern Problems a Contemporary Civilization course which is a study of international relations. This history program is de- signed and administered to develop an understanding of the world, its people and its problems, and to emphasize the continuity of history. MR.

MacTAGGART Okay, gang! MR. ALDRICH ' When I was in college — about 97 years ago . . . Longmeadow High School is extreme- ly proud of its extensive program in mathematics. Each student can find in this curriculum courses to fulfill his in- terests and needs. Freshmen elect Al- gebra I or Applied Math I. Plane Geo- metry or single semesters of Applied Math II and Business Math are avail- able to the Sophomores. Juniors con- centrate upon Algebra II, while Seniors may select either Senior Math or Math IV. Senior Math, a new course this year, provides further enrichment in Algebra II and in Plane Geometry as well as in Trigonometry. Math IV, in- tended for those interested in engin- eering, sciences, and higher college mathematics, is a combination of trigon- ometry, solid and analytical geometry, and an introduction to the calculus. Students may acquite either basic or pecific scientific backgrounds at Long- neadow High School. Required fresh- nan general science, applied and college reparatory biology, chemistry, and phy- ics are included in the curriculum of he science department. An excellent eaching staff, using the facilities of nodern laboratories, provides a concise dew of the world and creates a basis or more concentrated scientific study in ollege and for later scientific careers. ■ MR.

ZAPSALIS You flunk! 17 udinedd The commercial curriculum prepares the stud ent either for business schools or for immediate business vocations. A general introductory course is designed to give the student the background and the basic knowledge of national and personal business concepts. The study of bookkeeping and office practice becomes more involved and enlarges upon busi- ness practices and procedures. Typewrit- ing and stenography are required courses for the business student and are designed to increase his clerical skills. L cLucutLon Physical education offers the student recreation while he masters the skills of various sports. Stressing sportsmanship and leadership, this course prepares the pupil both physically and mentally for maturity. Included in the course are written and skill tests which are admin- istered at the end of each unit of work. An annual fitness exam is conducted in order to determine each pupil ' s physical potential. MR. DANKEVICH- ' Don ' t forget to push in your chairs! c V) (To; •MR.

Looking back to September 1957, we ob- serve the spaces that have been filled by the Class of 1961. As the years progressed, we have assumed responsibility and filled the ranks left by each preceding class until, as seniors, we became the leaders at Longmeadow High School. Now we realize that the future we face is even greater than what we had perceived as freshmen. Upon entering Longmeadow High School in 1957, we were placed under the watchful eyes of Mrs. Pelczarski and Mr. Climo (the latter whom we leave a little balder). One of our first obligations as freshmen was to elect class officers: President, Elaine Guistina; Vice-Presi- dent, Bob Barker; Secretary, Carolyn Morner; and Treasurer, Charlotte Carlson. Immedi- ately we were beseiged by seniors imploring us to buy Jet Jotters , student athletic activity cards, yearbooks, and library passes. The male members of our class tried out for freshman athletic teams as four-foot-eleven, ninety-seven pounders, while the freshman girls vied for the attentions of the accomplished athletes. Not accustomed to the sophisticated atmosphere of high school, we made extensive plans for the Lolli- pop Hop. The dance was a social success due to the number of upperclassmen who attended when they learned of free lollipops promised to all guests. The smooth run- ning order of events at LHS was interrupted when some rebellious soul reported a bomb in the school. School was dismissed at 8:30 with a reminder that classes would be held the following Saturday. The announcement of the unfamiliar ritual of mid- years was added to a notification from the Longmeadow Men ' s Club informing us of the Freshman Essay Contest on the subject, Our American Heritage. Later, at a spe- cial assembly, Dr. Malkasian, chairman of the contest, awarded a typewriter to Virginia Dondy, author of the winning essay. Spring activity periods were spent observing the construction of the new classroom wing which would be ready for use in the fall of 1958. In 1958, Brian Edgerly headed our slate of officers; Alan Stewart became Vice- President, Sallie Baldwin, Secretary, and Charlotte Carlson, Treasurer. The first dance of the year, Manhattan Holiday , was held by a more sophisticated Sophomore Class on November 22. This dance was even more successful than the last, financially, since we did not have the added overhead of lollipops. Students were now occupying the new wing using coats, scarves and handwarmers. The frigid conditions did not dull our spirits, although we encountered fountain pen freeze-ups, frost bite, and numerous cases of exposure. In the sportlight was our victorious football team which lost only one game, and our hockey team which captured the Suburban Title and went to Boston to compete for state-wide honors. Illness of a first string player brought Bill Sproul into the goalie cage. Bill, supported by class mates, Pete Clarke, Brian Edgerly, and John Mayock, held the opponents to a close victory. Many innovations were recog- nized this year including Honor Study Hall, the French and Latin Clubs, and a new cafeteria system. All of these projects were approved by the student body except the new cafeteria routine. For some reason, the cashiers lost their ability to count change and the dieticians, to scrape plates. At lunch, we are still obtaining exact change, but we are NOT scraping our own plates! Wyman Howard was elected our President in 1959; when he transferred to Ar- lington High School, Brian assumed the presidency, and Bill Sproul was chosen as Vice-President. Joni Childs and Claudia Buchdahl were elected Secretary and Treasurer respectively. A change was made in the regular schedule of social events when the Class of ' 61 held the Junior Promenade on February 13. This dance had formerly been held in the spring, which put a financial strain on those who would be attending the Senior Prom. The class chose Elaine Guistina and Allan Low as the dance chair- men, and Dave Stockman and Sally Martin as co-chairmen of decorations. The gym, transformed into a classical setting, formed a perfect background for the crowning of King Allan Low and Queen Sallie Baldwin. The school play, Papa is All , featured Carol Beaver and Ed Epstein. Mr. Lopes rewarded the played-out cast with a free dinner at the Log Cabin. Because of a change in school policy (or perhaps be- ) cause of our literary talents), the Class of 1961 was again asked to write an essay for the Longmeadow Men ' s Club, this time on the subject American Democracy versus Communism. Diane Terry, the second place winner of our Freshman Essay Contest, received first prize. The problem of keeping our athletes scholastically eligible for their respective teams was solved by the new tutoring system sponsored by Miss Maclntyre ' s National Honor Society. This group helps students and teachers alike: students, by tutoring in troublesome subjects, and teachers, by correcting long forgotten tests. The Junior Class, under the leadership of Debbie Poole, helped to bring Longmeadow High School its first exchange student. The student body campaigned diligently and was rewarded with the approval of the School Board and the financial support of the townspeople. The basketball team was again invited to the Small Schools Tournament where they lost the winning title in the final game with Amherst. The Drill Team also made a fine showing at all the tournament games (Never let it be said that Carolyn wasn ' t counting! ) An Awards Assembly in June recognized various members of our class: Bill Sproul won the Dartmouth Book Award and was chosen as an alternate to Boys ' State; Phyllis Ciciarelli was selected to go to Girls ' State with Carol Beaver as an alternate; Paul Valliere received the Harvard Book Award; Brian Edgerly was selected to go to Boys ' State and was recipient of the Williams Book Award and Charlotte Carlson was chosen as Governor ' s Aide at the Eastern States Exposition. As the I960 school year came to a close, members of our class were being selected to fill prominent positions in school activities in 1961 Ginger Dondy and Phyllis Ciciarelli became Edi- tors-in-chief of the Jet Jotter , and Sallie Baldwin was chosen as Editor of the Mas- ackie. In sports, Al Stewart and Tim Purdy were elected Co-captains of the football team, while Phil Collins and Brian Edgerly received similar honors as heads of the soccer team. In the realm of girls ' sports, Pam Barnes and Charlotte Carlson were chosen as Captains of the Jet and White Teams respectively. Senior year at last! However, we are somewhat disillusioned as we now realize that there is more to being seniors than merely organizing extra-curricular activities and spending all free time in the library. Although the oldest members of the school, we are faced with many new tasks getting classes changed to get enough credits, graduation pictures, college interviews and applications, and Mr. Haskell. Adminis- tration and faculty members found themseves in different positions this year: Mr. Cone, former Assistant-Superintendent, became Superintendent upon the retirement of Mr. Herrschaft; Miss Eaton was assigned the English 411 class when Mr. Lopes enrolled at Harvard to learn more about the Boston accent and tennis coaching. We were soon introduced to Sheila Malone, our exchange student from Enniskillen, North- ern Ireland. Sheila was fast to make friends and we will long remember her for her rosy cheeks and her jolly good British expressions. Senior Class representatives in Student Council for our most important year are: Allan Low, President, Carol Beaver, Paul Valliere, Phyllis Ciciarelli, and Shelia Malone, honorary member. Class officers were also elected with Brian Edgerly, our perennial favorite, coming out on top. Bill Sproul was named Vice-President, Joni Childs became Secretary, and John Sellers, Treasurer. The Senior Class inaugurated the season ' s whirl of social events with a dance on October 13 which was ingeniously named, Don ' t Miss It . Evidently, not many people did miss it as the dance was our biggest financial success. We collected inheritance willed to us by the Class of I960, when we defeated the Classical football team for the first time in the history of LHS. Senior stars John Sellers, Dale Richter, and Al Stewart led the Lancers through an undefeated season. As the winter sports season, college boards, mid-years, and Masackie deadlines approach, we stand at a vantage point to review the past and express a concern for the future. At Longmeadow High School we have enjoyed our share of fun and work and we realize that our school career has provided us with important experiences to meet the future. However, we will use these last four years as a basis; not as an end, just as a means. HOW ' BOUT THAT! One of Zane Mirkin ' s cars went over 30 m.p.h. Nancy Blake ate at Howard Johnson ' s.

JAMES CLIMO ANN PELCZARSKI ADVISORS tY ' m 59 AunlorA 1962 By class vote, Tim Paige was elected presi- dent; Bob Rossow, vice-president; Carolyn Young, secretary; and Carolyn Cummings, treasurer. As faculty advisors to the Junior Class, Mrs. Wanegar and Mr. Aldrich were of invaluable assistance in making this year outstanding. The class became active participants in an American Field Service plan to send one member abroad for the 1961 summer months. A committee consisting of school department, faculty, and adult members of the Longmeadow Chapter of the A. F. S., chose Jeri- anne Alberti, Pam Carson, Tom Clarke, Cynthia Moyer, Dede Wiley and Carolyn Young as the six candidates for this proposed summer abroad. A special highlight of the year was the spectacular Junior Prom, the Mardi Gras Ball, over which David Charlesworth and Patty Thomas reigned as king and queen. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS Seated: C.

As a result of this election, Steve Parker became president; Charlie Carter, vice-president; Kathy Kelly, treasurer; and Meredith Mudgett, secretary. The new officers immediately initiated plans for the approaching sophomore dance. Thanks to the combined efforts of the entire class, Ice Palace, held in the early part of December, was a great success. Class advisors play an important part in the work of any class, and the sophomores consider themselves most fortunate to have Miss Baird and Mr. Joly assisting and directing them.

Their class advisors, Mrs. McTaggart and Mr. Drossel, immediately encouraged their proteges to participate in school activities. First on the year ' s agenda was the selection of officers. Jim Purdy proved the most powerful vote-getter for the presidency, and Jeff Lyman was chosen as his assistant. The class elected Pam Stone as secretary, while Laurie Ronaldson became official head of the treasury. With this important business conducted, class dues were collected, but main emphasis was placed on plans for the spring dance. Now in June the youngest class is ready to ascend the ladder, for in three years time it will become the Graduating Class of 1964.

The first of these dealt with the I960 presidential elec- tion with emphasis on political plat- forms rather than on candidates. At this same time the Club held a mock elec- tion on issues, the results of which proved that over half the student body voted inconsistently for one candidate and for the opposite platform. At the second assembly, held later in the year, the Club presented Sinear Okoro from Nigeria who spoke on the politics and people of Africa. In their regular meetings, the club members held lively discussions on cur- rent problems, election issues, the United Nations, and Great Decisions of 1961. They were led in these debates by Ed Epstein, president; Peter Cherbas, vice-president; Joan Marcuson, secre- tary; and Karen Stothert, recorder. i reative UUritina i -lub 9 The Creative Writing Club, under Miss Eaton ' s supervision, stimulates an interest in student literary accomplish- ments and provides a forum for dis- cussion and criticism pertaining to the literary efforts of its members.

The Glee Club, Freshman Girls ' Chorus, and Lyrics com- pose the vocal groups, while the band and the orchestra make up the instrumental sections. In numerous rehearsals the department pre- pares for school concerts and participation in the Western Massachusetts Music Festival. The school band provides marching music for the Drill Team at football and basketball games, notably increasing school spirit. Christmas and spring concerts give the members of the or- chestra, as well as the vocal groups, an oppor- unity to display their talents by entertaining their schoolmates. Motivated by popular inter- est in jazz, a new group known as The Dixie- land 5 was formed. The repertoire of these talented boys offers a delightful change of tempo. Another first at Longmeadow High School was attained by this capable depart- ment which produced the highly successful musical comedy, Oklahoma , for public pres- entation. Through the combined efforts of all mem- bers of the department and of their industrious director, Mr. Burkle, Longmeadow High School may again boast of its outstanding musical groups.

Judged by science teachers of area high schools and pro- fessional researchers, Jay Wiley ' s Thermoelectric Genera- tor was awarded first prize in the physics division. In biology, Bill Cox and Doug Ellis received first prize by transforming chickens into roosters through the effect of male hormones. Roger Simon ' s project, Food for a Grow- ing Population, won first prize in chemistry.

In addition, the steady hitting of Al Stewart, John Mayock and Jim Walling contributed a great deal to the offensive power of the team. Hard-won victories over South Hadley, Classical and West Springfield, and double victories over Tech and Commerce highlighted the season.

The season was highlighted by many outstanding per- formances on the part of the individual team members. Dale Richter was a consistent winner in the 220-yard dash and the low hurdles, and Bob Taylor excelled in the 100-yard dash. In the weight division, Charlie Hollister led the team with fine performances in the shot put and discus event. High point man on the team was Ken Clark who ranked as one of the best pole vaulters in Western Mass. and continually placed in the broad jump and 880-yard run as well. Other high point men on the team were Jim Thompson at the javelin, Bruce Aldrich, Longmeadow ' s miler, and Dave Charlesworth, a promising runner, in both the 880 and the mile.

Dale was al- so selected by Scholastic Magazine as one of the All-star football players from the nation ' s high schools. In addition, John Sellers, Dick Moran, and Tom Clarke were listed for All- Independent honors. The many returning varsity players under the leadership of Tom Clarke and Jeff Hop- kins, co-captains, promise to produce another successful season for the Longmeadow Lancers. Longmeadow rolled to an easy 36-12 victory over an inexperienced Minnechaug team. Long- meadow ' s scoring was highlighted by Steve Goldberg who caught passes good for 14 points. Palmer, previously unbeaten, was the next victim of the black and white tide as they bowed to the Lancers, 20-0.

Treb- 129 H ■ Entail Schools Ji ournamen For the fourth consecutive year, Longmea- dow has been honored by being invited to the Western Massachusetts Small Schools Tourna- ment; and for the third year the Lancers were defeated in a low scoring finale. This year Long- meadow ' s first victim was Turners Falls who bowed out to the Lancer ' s steady pressure 65- 45. On the second night, South Hadley, after leading most of the game, succumbed to Long- meadow ' s fourth quarter onslaught to go down to a 61-52 defeat. This victory earned the pre- Tournament favorite Lancers the right to op- pose Ludlow in the finale. The Lions pulled one of the year ' s biggest upsets as they edged disappointed Longmeadow 41-39- Although the Lancers lost in the final round, they deserve much credit for the fine basketball skill and sportsmanship which they displayed during the tournament.

Leading the Lancers to their excellent record of 10 wins, 2 losses and 3 ties were senior co-cap- tains, Phil Collins and Brian Edgerly. Outstand- ing defenseman Dave Purrington, forwards John Mayock, Pete Clarke and Don Temple, and goalie Bill Sproul aided Longmeadow ' s Hockey squad in compiling its impressive rec- ord. The Lancers held the opposition to thirty- one goals in fifteen games; the Lancers however penetrated their rivals ' defenses for fifty goals. The highlight of the season was a hard won 7-6 victory over Chicopee. This victory made possible the Suburban League Title and a berth in the Massachusetts State Hockey Tournament. With the return of several of this year ' s starters and a strong bench for support, Longmeadow looks forward to another successful season next year. HOCKEY CO-CAPTAINS Phil Collins, Brian Edgerly.

Bill Niemi Pete Clarke Phil Collins ■ fry, rrocKeu tournament The Longmeadow High Hockey team, as Suburban League leader, was selected to play in, the Massachusetts State Hockey Tournament as a representative of West- ern Massachusetts. Although losing to Woburn 7-2, in the first round, the team gave a fine account of itself. The Lancers put everything they had into a rousing first period w hen they grabbed a 2-0 lead. Brian Edgerly and John Mayock fired in the two goals as they made the most of the team ' s few scoring oppor- tunities. However, it was strictly Woburn in the final two periods as the North Shore team, led by Ed Calla- han ' s hat trick, scored three goals in the middle session and four more in the finale. Despite the game ' s result, a great deal of credit goes to goalie Bill Sproul who turned back 27 shots in the face of Woburn ' s tremend- ous pressure. £f The I960 Lancer Golf team, coached by Mr. Haskell, ended the season with a winning eight and four record. Smooth-stroking Phil Collins was high man on the team. He was followed by Zane Mirkin, Skip Baird, Neil Day, Jim Gould, and Dave Streeter. Highlighting the season was an upset victory over Tech, one of the best golf teams in Western Massachu- setts. Phil climaxed the successful season when he placed seventh in the Massachusetts State Schoolboy Golf Tournament. 3 enniA The Longmeadow net men finished their season with a four-win, two-loss record. Barry Kittredge, who was seeded as first man, led the team to its successful season. Jay Wiley, Ed Zinn, and Steve Parker also gave impressive performances. Highlights of the season for the team, and their coach Mr. Lopes, were two victories over Technical High of Springfield. GOLF TEAM First Row: J. Gould, P. Collins, D. Streeter.

In addition to performing at home football and basketball games, this year ' s Drill Team has participated in pep rallies and drill team competition. The girls were again asked to perform on television in a preview of their Small Schools Tournament halftime show. Due to the many hours of practice under the supervision of Mrs. Wells, the Longmeadow High Drill Team executed its performances with both spirit and skill. rm BH5? flf ?L ' r 3lt. 55, J SESfeTr y ,v 4 [ 1a 3%- ffi j r . 136 :; £, w First Row: C.
