Longmeadow High School - Masacksic Yearbook (Longmeadow, MA)

Text from Pages 1 - 192 of the 1963 volume:

wen IT IS A ROUGH ROAD THAT LEADS HEIGHTS OF GREATNESS ' ■ Vy: ' • , Jfflagacfesitc In the beginning, we were a school with no symbol. A spirited Latin de- partment competition produced a motto. Imaginative students and teachers en- visioned the Lancer in Jet and White and gave him a place of honor upon a shield designed in the shape of the school auditorium. Thus, the Long- meadow High School seal was born. Sebtcatton 3 i %9 m MISS LILLIAN ERICKSON I Needle-art for the evening hours Miss Erickson, we ' ve got to get these posters up before the end of school today. Could you drop everything and make them up for us? This type of request has never been ignored by Miss Lillian Erick- son; she is always ready to help, anywhere in the school. Together with Mr. Suher, Miss Erickson has worked each year as adviser in the production of the Masacksic. In the creation of the school newspaper, Miss Erickson performed the almost incredible task of printing the first few issues of the jet ]otter in the art room. Although Miss Erickson would be the first person to object, we feel that she is a vital factor in the spirit of our school. The unique relationship which Miss Erickson maintains with each student is one of her most amazing strengths. As an artist, she knows what must be done to correct a picture; as a teacher, she has the patience and restraint, rare in artists, to let the student carry the final responsibility for his work. This combination of abilities is the key which has helped many students develop the confidence that fosters creativity. Looking back on our school years at Longmeadow High School, we, the Class of 1963, wish to express our appreciation for the hours Miss Erickson has spent working with us and for us to make our life at this school more enjoyable. A private place for creative art. I: Vi A good team forgets its last game; let ' s get out lere and show them who we are today! Implicit 1 i this statement are both the spirit which is Maurice J uher ' s and his desire to instill this spirit in the SJ linds of the varsity soccer players. Striving to produce an outstanding yearbook takes erseverance. Each year Mr. Suher spends many hours iking pictures and re-checking ads to make sure lat both meet the high standards he has set and laintained since he was first associated with the lasacksic. Another of Mr. Suher ' s outstanding traits is his ;nse of humor. His witticisms bring laughter and mjoyment to both students and faculty. In the Funday roduction — another responsibility he has shouldered )r several years — Mr. Suher puts his humor to good se, as the proceeds from this hilarious event benefit le Student Council scholarship fund. No description of Mr. Suher would be complete ' ithout including the two qualities which we, the ilass of 1963, appreciated the most — his continual elp and friendliness. The guidance which he offered ) us in our studies, on the athletic field, and in ie production of the Masacksic, aided us greatly iroughout these last four years. Certainly, we wish ) express our appreciation for this help, but even lore important than the help is the way it was given, laurice Suher treated us, not as an adult showing what to do, but rather as a friend sharing each xperience with us. 3 $ A kM MR. MAURICE SUHER A spot of tea? Jforetoorb Tradition and spirit are strong at Longmeadow High School although only eight years have passed since the Jet and White first appeared, the Lancer first charged, and Veritas, Virtus, Vigilia first shone on the shield. The spirit of the first year has grown with the students and activities of the school to form the strong traditions reflected in this Masacksic. a. Jf acuity Cable of Content emors 38ttkrcla smen .• ■ Icttotttes; « ■cmor Week Alette Caricatures! glbtoerttsiementsi MR. RICHARD N. HOLTER Chairman MRS. CHARLES W. CARTER Tradition and Spirit are nebulous matters. They are not like buildings, or equipment, or playing fields, or staff members. They are tremendously important, how- ever. They are the difference between a good school and a mediocre school; the difference between a school that is outstanding and one that is unknown. Longmeadow High School quickly developed outstand- ing spirit. Its athletic teams, its musical organizations, and its dramatic and literary activities have had excellent student and community support. It is developing a tradi- tion of high standards in scholarship and responsibility. As a school gets la rger and more impersonal, such qualities sometimes are lost. Let ' s all determine to do all we can to build the tradi- tion and maintain the spirit that will continue to make this high school outstanding. MRS. RUSSELL P. DALE, JR. MR. ROBERT BRIGHAM FACULTY COUNCIL No organization, whether busi- ness, governmental or educational, can go far in the pursuit of excel- lence without effective internal communication of ideas. The Fac- ulty Council is essentially a com- munications center. All areas of our educational program send a representative to make up this group. Within this group the pres- ent and future educational needs of our students are discussed. Every recommendation for improvement or revision of our program is con- sidered, weighed, and debated at length in order that we may con- tinue to offer to the youth of Long- meadow the finest educational plan we can devise.

This year the Longmeadow High School Student Council continued its active participation in the life of our school. Two new and difficult tasks were undertaken. In the fall the Council held a Dad ' s Day, a day on which it invited all the fathers of football players to attend the Minnechaug game. At halftime, the fathers were honored by the performance of the band and drill team. The Council also sponsored an Alumni Reception in December, working toward the goal of forming an alumni organization from those classes that have graduated. The work for this reception was done by Meredith Mudgett, Pamela Stone, and Mary Alice Astaldi. The project rounded out a highly successful 1962-63 Student Council program. To the Longmeadow High School Graduates of the Class of 1963: Congratulations to you for having suc- cessfully met the requirements for gradua- tion from Longmeadow High School. You well deserve these congratulations for I know that as a class you have had to work harder for your diplomas than has any class that preceded you. Your high school years have been critical ones in world his- tory. The problems raised by Communism, the emergence of new nations, the European Common Market, and the dawn of the space age have created a new awareness on the part of all Americans of the vital need for qual- ity education in our schools. Because of this realization, your course of studies in Long- meadow High School has been marked by many changes in content and depth and the utilization of new teaching materials and methods. Increasingly strict standards of per- formance have been required of all students. These challenges you have successfully met and you richly deserve your hard-won gradu- ation certificates. The Class of 1963 has been a credit to our school and town. Good luck and may God bless each of you in your future endeavors. ROBERT D. RUSSELL Superintendent J Superintendent of Schools A. foujrS . $u j4 What is the spirit of Longmeadow? is a question each one has to answer for him- self. To me, the spirit of Longmeadow High School is a lively and active one which chal- lenges and exercises the mental abilities of everyone who comes under its spell. The student who spends many hours in the shadow of the spirit, the teacher, who feels its influence as he instructs, all are affected. In a short eight years Longmeadow High School has developed a strong tradition. You, the class of 1963, will carry this spirit and tradition with you, for it has become a part of you. An integral part of the Longmeadow tra- dition is an insistence upon thinking of a high caliber. As the lancer of old honed his sword to a keen edge, you have sharpened your mind ' s ability to think, to make deci- sions. Keep it honed and sharp. Do not let rust gather on it by accepting the thoughts and decisions of others as your own. When the challenges come, as they will, you will be ready to make the decisions and strong enough to accept the responsibility that goes with them. EDGAR G. CRAVER Principal C %2j School spirit is the heartbeat of any strong and growing student body. What can be more important? If spirit is high, academic achievement and participation in the extra- curricular program will follow naturally. It is my hope that after graduation you will continue to show the same enthusiasm, loyalty, and sincerity to your college or place of employment that we have seen at Long- meadow High School during the past four years. Attempt to awaken the sleeping spirit that may be lying dormant in others; encour- age the eager to do more and lend a sup- porting hand to the unsteady. Light candles; in later years many will shine back to cheer you. If you exhibit interest and enthusiasm in whatever you do, people will soon realize that you are alive to your opportunities. If you live and work in a spirit of utter sin- cerity, you will add significance and a spar- kle of color to your daily lives. Don ' t ever lose that sparkle. RALPH L.

Good leaders are necessary to govern a class of this size. The sopho- more class found such leaders in President Clark Shattuck; Vice-president Roger Wilson; Secretary Carol Feldman; and Treasurer Margie Lauer. Under the guidance of Mrs. Dolgin and Mr. Whit- taker, the class advisers, the sophomores conducted their class dance, Soiree d ' Etoiles. Assisting in the production were the following committee chairmen: art, Connie Ramberg and Frank Coes; refreshments, Marion Bartlett; tickets, Carol Feldman; invitations, Judy Ryan; and clean-up, Steve Keiser.

How much did the stocks drop today? 63 The largest class in Longmeadow ' s history entered the school in September. Under the leadership of Bart Frisbie, president; Sandy Pool, vice-president; Anne Wallace, secretary; and Holly Clark, treasurer, the freshman readied themselves for the four hard years to come. Aided by its advisers, Miss Charkoudian and Mr. Reppucci, this class was responsible for a number of innovations, such as a freshman soccer team and a cheerleader group. Another success was the spring dance. 1963 has prepared the freshmen well for the coming years of high school. f s Freshman Class Advisers - Miss Charkoudian and Mr. Reppucci Freshman Class Officers - Anne Wallace; Sandy Pool; Bart Frisbie; Holly Clark s .

Editor-in-Chief Karen Stothert shows Literary Editors Rich Page and Judy Waskiewicz the first draft. -MM - From September through April, determined to once again receive honors at the Columbia Scholastic Press Conference, the staff of the 1963 Masacksic worked to produce a better yearbook than ever before. With the aid of Mr. Kirby Judd, Miss Lillian Erickson and Mr. Maurice Suher, the faculty advisers, work proceeded smoothly arid on schedule. For the first time, a Masacksic home- room was created to serve as a center for the staff, and as headquarters for uniting the var- ious departments involved in the book ' s crea- tion. This room housed the editor-in-chief, Karen Stothert; the literary editors, Richard Page and Judy Waskiewicz; the art staff edi- tors, Linda Silverman and Brooks Young; a business staff representative, Sue Dale; and the entire literary staff. A novel theme, School Spirit was introduced, centering about the school ' s symbol, the Lancer. All members of the staff hope that this year ' s Masacksic will serve as a memento of an active school year at Longmeadow High School. Yearbook Advisers — Mr. Suher, Miss Erickson, and Mr. Judd. The Art Editors — Brooks Young and Linda Silverman 72 The Business Heads — Louise Freedman, Jim Sagalyn, Sue Dale and Nancy Almgren. sf JET JOTTER The 1962-63 Jet jotter was completely reorganized under the editorship of Suzanne Valliere and Elinor Shatz. Since the staff and its adviser, Mr. John Lynch, have been placed to- gether in Room 30, concentrated work has produced a more informative and popular newspaper. Among the innovations were the printing of a new name plate and more pictures, and the restricting of all advertisements to page four. A new system of organization was devised: the first page, edited by Judy Leers, was restricted to school news; the second page, under the supervision of Peter Cherbas, was reserved for literary and editorial articles; the third page, under the editorship of Greg Pearson, was the sports page; and the fourth page, supervised by Janice Siegel, consisted of alumni news by Janice Holter, and American Field Service reports by Mary Alice Astaldi and Roy dela Cruz. i 74 £ NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY 21 Election to the National Honot Society is both an honor and a chance to serve. Admission is limited to juniors and seniors, and is based on the student ' s yearly averages. Tutoring, the Society ' s main function, was headed this year by Martha Galbraith and Marjorie Fox. Under the leadership of Richard Page, president; John Baron, vice-president; Deborah Frisbie, secretary; and Judy Waskiewicz, treasurer, the Honor Society checked coats at school functions and held its annual alumni tea. In order to aid its members in choosing a college, the so- ciety has arranged for visits between members now in high school and former members now at college. National Honor Society officers: Debbie Frisbie secretary; John Baron, vice-president; Richard Page president; Miss Maclntyre; Judy Waskiewicz, trea- surer. What ' s so funny about the alumni tea? THE AIDES Library aides check out books to L.H.S. ' s avid readers As our school expands, all jobs can no longer be done by the adult members of the staff. Student aides have become more and more important to the func- tioning of the school. In their own way, the office, cafeteria, library, supply, and language laboratory aides provide valu- able assistance. They deserve credit for volunteering their time to keep the school operating smoothly. Cleanup time for the cafeteria aides Cafeteria Aides Faculty members and students share a joke in the language lab. 77 CYCLORAMISTS s The Cycloramists is a service club under the direction of Miss Erickson which decorates bulletin boards, the library and the cafeteria, makes special diagrams or illustrations requested by the faculty, and produces the posters needed to advertise school functions. Each year Cycloramists also prepare the gay Christmas decorations in the office windows and construct scenery used in the school play. This year the most spectacular achievement of the club was the creation of the exotic scenery for South Pacific, The colorful tropical settings delighted the audience and added to the success of the play. By creating a dynamic and imagina- tive atmosphere through their work, the members of the Cycloramists have helped to make our school setting more pleasant.

In addition, they have as- siduously checked the passes of transient students during G block, and have aided faculty members who were on duty in the cafeteria. Mr. Shindler, the faculty adviser, was assisted this year by senior co-captains, Rich Page and Dave Streeter. Each year the Traffic Squad is com- prised of junior and senior boys whose academic ability and persuasiveness make them competent in this job. C. J. asleep in the deep The stalwart coordinators of traffic co-ordination An intellectual movement is surging through Longmeadow High School. Under the guidance of Mr. Walter Rep- pucci, a Great Books Club has been organized to acquaint students with some of the great books in world litera- ture. The members meet informally to discuss the works of Aristotle, Shakes- peare, Milton, and Thoreau. For variety, the club plans to study the Declaration of Independence and the Federalist Papers. Throughout the past year, for one night a week after school, a small group of boys have met secretly in rooms 22 and 23. While their friends were enjoying themselves, these dedi- cated young scientists were diligently working out scientific problems. They toiled late into the night, poring over ancient and dusty vol- umes, probing the mysteries of science. Then, whenever the janitor mustered up enough cour- age to tell them to leave, he was usually con- fronted by several cold stares and perhaps a hex or two. Being an outsider, I had been curious as to their intentions. One day I managed to corner one of them, and in answer to my questions I was told simply, For Science and our glorious leader, Mr. Pratt! I had not known Mr. Pratt very well, but he had never seemed to be a dictator. Later, dur- ing an interview, his mild manner put me at ease, and I found that he was the faculty ad- viser of the Science Club. Mr. Pratt himself told me that this new organization had been created to stimulate student experimentation outside of the classroom. Members were per- mitted to use school equipment for individual projects. I came away from this interview convinced that the Science Club was not a clandestine group organized for subversion, but a construc- tive addition to the extracurricular program. Mr. Pratt says, Wait until you see this one. AMERICAN FIELD SERVICE A.F.S. Candidates anticipate future travels. In October, the Longmeadow Chapter of American Field Service began the an- nual task of selecting four students from the Junior Class to apply for the summer exchange program. Mrs. Charles Carter headed the selection committee which was assisted by Mr. Orsen Joly, faculty adviser, and by Mary Alice Astaldi and Judy Leers, student representatives; the committee ably handled the hard selection task. Last summer Mary Alice Astaldi, as the Longmeadow representative, jour- neyed to the Philippines; this school year, we are proud hosts for Roy dela Cruz of the Philippines. A town committee is considering expanding the program to include sending a student abroad for an entire school year. Are Roy dela Cruz and Mary Alice Astaldi doing the Philiipine twist? Mr. Ness, the head of the mathematics department, this year inaugurated a chapter of the National High School and Junior College Mathematics Club. The members have chosen the chapter name Mu Alpha Theta. In order to belong to this organi- zation, a student must be a junior or senior and must have at least a B average in his high school math courses. The club ' s purpose is to create interest in the new ideas in mathematics; therefore each member is ex- pected to present a lecture to the club on one of these innovations. With John Baron, president; Roy dela Cruz, vice-president; and Jim Sagalyn, secretary, the club should have success in creating new interest in an old subject. Bob Patterson Through the efforts of the Longmeadow High School Business Club, an innovation has been made in the school this year. This is the high school book store which specializes in paperback books for edu- cational and informal reading. In addition to management of the Lancer Book Store, the club, which consists of twenty-four mem- bers, assists the office staff and faculty with typing, mimeographing, and stencil work. The club ' s officers are: Nancy Milton, president; Francine Joyal, vice-president; Linda Taft, secretary; Jean Cantwell, treasurer; and Steve Marcus, sergeant- at-arms. In addition to its regular activities, the year was highlighted by a field trip to the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company where the members of the club were afforded a better understanding of large business operations. Francine Joyal, Mr. Dankevich, and Nancy Milton plan book- store operations. Well, I don ' t know, Pam. J RED CROSS CLUB This idea was instituted by the year ' s slate of officers: president, Karen Hardy; vice- president, Joyanne Marcus; secretary, Cyn- thia Tebaldi; and treasurer, Helen Savio. Among the club ' s other activities were: a fund drive conducted throughout the school to promote membership in the club; a drive to collect gifts for the children at Monson State Hospital; a drive to collect cosmetics for the patients at Northampton Hospital; and the decoration of the Holyoke Soldiers Home and Northampton Hospital for several parties. This year Mrs. Blake- borough again served as sponsor for the club. This year the Longmeadow High School Red Cross Club has achieved its two objec- tives — to perform services for hospitals and the less fortunate and to do some kind of service for the school. The organization of a Student Aid Program, a group of stu- dents who assist newcomers to the school, was the year ' s major school service project. The arrival of a high school nurse, Mrs. Joan Low, and a grow- ing enthusiasm in Longmeadow High School for careers in the medical field are the reasons for the formation of the Future Nurses Club. Led by Sue Thompson, president; Fran Sciutto, secretary; and Sue Pierson, treasurer, the club planned many activities, the first of which was a bake sale to raise money for field trips to various hospitals. The club ' s main objective was to familiarize students with the number of different job opportuni- ties within the medical field, such as dental hygienist, medical secre- tary and physical therapist, and to further develop the interest in medicine that is already present.

They presented movies, lecturers, and discussions. Also, the club visited the University of Massachusetts, where they observed teaching-in-action in a school build- ing especially designed for observation. Early in the year, under the supervision of their adviser, Mr. Edmond Houle, the club elected the following officers: Sandy Dyson, president; Louise Adam, vice-president; Jane Charles- worth, treasurer; Carol Sunter, secretary; and Carol Feldman, librarian. Raising money for their scholarship fund was a major goal of the Future Teachers. The club held a bake sale and also sponsored a stu- dent-faculty volleyball game. At the end of the year some deserving senior, who wishes to be a teacher, will receive the same scholarship of $150 that Betty Hernberg, of the Class of 1962, enjoyed this year.

Under the supervision of Mrs. Gertrude Blakeborough, Les Cuis- inieres, twenty-five girls, each deft in the art of cooking, are prepared to whip up fancy cakes, cookies and tea sandwiches for such affairs as P. T. A. meetings, school recep- tions, and class dances. As its first project, the club baked Christmas goodies for the one hundred and fifty people who were to attend the Honor Society tea in December. Responsible for the success of this effort and those that followed were: Joyce Raymond, president; Marjorie Lauer, vice-president; Susan Pierson, secretary; and Judy Memery, treasurer.

EC FRENCH CLUB a Bonjour! was the greeting that everyone received from Mr. William Whittaker, as the first meeting of French Club came to order. Les Bavardeurs, as the club is called, has these officers: Judy Leers, president; Betty Fein, vice-president; Janice Siegel, sec- retary; and Penney Graham, treasurer. All members have signed a gage d ' honneur to speak French at all times. Therefore, Mr. Kirby Judd presented a pro- gram about his teaching exper- iences in France in French. Les Bavardeurs are learning that speaking French is fun. Sourirez, s ' il vous plait Domina Leab dictates Forum Romanum policy. Officers: Seated: Deborah Frisbie; John Baron. Stand- ing: Clayton Kimball; Deborah Noone. Under the direction of Domina Gladys Leab, the Forum Romanum held a most successful Latin Ban- quet this year. The gala event took place in the spring. Underclassmen arrived garbed in the simple tunic of the slave. The upperclassmen, lavishly dressed in purple and gold-trimmed tunics and bedecked with jewels, represented the Roman aristocracy. During a typical Roman feast of various fruits and wines, the guests were entertained by singing, dancing and a spirited gladiatorial fight. Prizes were awarded to those guests wearing the most elaborate costumes. The officers were: John Baron, president; Deborah Frisbie, vice-president; Deborah Noone, secretary; and Clayton Kimball, treasurer. Early this year, the members of the Chess Club lived through a crisis. Regular attendance at club meetings dropped until only a handful of loyal players remained. Robert Yodlowski, the club ' s executive secretary, led the chess players in a drive to find new mem- bers, but only a few were found. Even Mr. Ahern, the faculty adviser believed his club ' s activities might come to an end for lack of interest. Fortunately, the enthusiasm of these half-dozen supporters con- vinced Mr. Ahern to maintain the club. Since then, the Chess Club has arranged a schedule of meets with several local high schools. This year ' s members have pre- served the Chess Club as a regular part of Longmeadow ' s extra-curri- cular program. A new recreational club has been introduced to Longmeadow High School this year. Mr. Robert Homer is the adviser and chaperon of the Ski Club. On every Friday afternoon during the winter months, when weather permitted, the club, con- sisting of nearly two hundred members, clambered aboard buses packed with ski equipment and excitement. These trips make lessons available to each mem- ber, and provide a time for socializing on a large scale. Meredith Mudgett, president; Dave Sinish, vice president; Ann Lincoln, secretary; and Frank Weitzman, treasurer; helped make Mr. Homer ' s job of organizing these trips easier and provided a base for future activities. Mt. Tom, here we come! Gary Twin; Brooks Young, Robin Atkinson and Mr. Homer won ' t get far with 85 one pair of skis!

Another secret meeting is uncovered and recorded by the can- did camera of the Longmeadow High School Photography Club. The photo will be sent to Room 30 or Room 26 where the meeting will be immortalized on the pages of the Jet Jotter or Masacksic. Responsibility for this rapid work may be credited to the twenty members of the club and their supervisor, Mr. John Rossiter. Officers include: James Sagalyn, president; Robert Dor- man, lab chief; and Ted Lyman, secretary. In addition to taking pictures for the Masacksic and Jet Jotter, the club is respon- sible for films of the football games. The members learn proficiency in photog- raphy and provide a great service to the school ... so keep that in mind next time you slip into a dimly lighted corner of L.H.S. The world comes to Longmeadow High School through the activities of the World Affairs Club. Under the direction of its adviser, Mr. Joly, the club met Tuesday afternoons and discussed such topics as Communist China, the Cuban Crisis, and the Common Market. Highlighting the list of speakers were Istvan Moldovan YI, a Hungarian student at Springfield College, who related experiences of the Hungarian Revolt, and Mr. Richard Usher of the State Department, who spoke on Southeast Asia. During the year, members attended the Model Gen- eral Assembly at Harvard University, the Model Security Council at Amherst College, and the A.I.C. Model Congress.

Dave Charlesworth, serving as Master of Ceremonies, introduced such acts as Nature Boy Bill Matuelewicz and Nature Girl Leslie Harkless, Gail Russell ' s impression of Liberace and Marilyn Monroe, and Mary Alice Astaldi ' s rhumba with Jack Egan and Bill Sunter. The act which will be remembered the longest was School Daze, featuring the antics of such noted scholars as Kitty Kaynor, Carolyn Cummings, Mugs Silansky, and Joey Ro- land. This performance was highlighted by Gilla Richter ' s leading the class in song — German style! m -i-ji Maintaining Longmeadow High School ' s partiality towards Thornton Wilder ' s plays, the 1962 Dramatic Club presented Wilder ' s wryly philo- sophical The Skin of Our Teeth. Set in various epochs of mankind ' s history, the play chronicles the growth of the Antrobus family and at the same time satirizes the priggishness of man. Leading the large but skillful cast of amateurs were Andy Cox as Sabina, the scatterbrained maid; Al Wood as George Antrobus, the eccentric, stormy politician; Pam Carson as Mrs. Antrobus, his prim wife; and Bill Ferris and Margie Fox as their two angelic children.

Only those in the music department, under the direction of Mr. Wilfred Burkle, know how true this can be. Never- theless, all of the hard work comes to fruition when the music organiza- tion appears in school activities. Pep rallies in the early fall provide the first opportunity for the band to perform. The preparation for the marching at half-time constitutes a large part of the band ' s work. December finds the entire music department preparing for the annual Christmas assembly. In this program the band, orchestra and choral groups perform popular pieces as well as some that are less well-known. After this our musicians depart, with the- rest of us, for a well-earned vacation. The spring months set the stage for the next major music presentation. The program, featuring the Lyrics, Glee Club, Band, and Orchestra, is the culmination of their winter rehearsals. A unique program was initiated in the spring of 1962; this was an exchange concert with Niskayuna High School of Niskayuna, New York. This is the first time that such a program was attempted in this area. Because of the success of this program, it is hoped that it will become an annual event. r n iffi ' iiii r f ffi rfxm Twiddle-dee and Twiddle-dum. Three excellent Stradivarii.

Mary Alice and Jim with their court Mary Alice Astaldi and Jim Finn reign at the Prom JUNIOR PROM On the evening of February 3, 1962, the gym was magically transformed into a medieval setting to corres- pond to the theme of the Junior Prom, Camelot. The castles, the flowering trees, and the lily pond with flowing water, demonstrated the artistic ability of the decorations committee which had been guided by Judy Leers and Linda Silverman. Another feature was the music, provided by Tony Ravosa ' s band. Although far from medieval, the music appealed to everyone at the Prom. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of Jim Finn and Mary Alice Astaldi as king and queen. The success of the prom can be attributed to the gen- eral chairmen, Nancy Almgren and Jim Finn, and their committees. So that ' s Sir Lancelot!

The dan- cers moved in a setting of magnolia trees and Spanish moss, under the magic of a large yel- low moon. Dominating this romantic scene was a stately southern mansion. These beautiful decorations created by Miss Erickson and the art department were tangible evidence that the work of the various com- mittees under the direction of Prom co-chair- men Barbara Benton, William Ferris, and Neil Markson had been successful. We are sure that the class of 1962 enjoyed their Senior Prom, but were saddened with the realization that it was the last social event of their high school careers.

The Senior Banquet of the Class of 1962, held at Wiggins Tavern, was no exception. Miss Baird and Mr. D ' Agostino, as recip- ients of the Masacksic dedication, accepted the first yearbooks from Virginia Shakour, the editor-in-chief. At the close of the festi- vities, Gilla Richter, the exchange student from West Germany, personally thanked the students and faculty for including her in the life of our school and community. Although it was a happy occasion, there was some sadness, for every senior realized that this was one of the last events at which the class would be together. Mr. Climo is honored by the Senior Class A mixture of emotions Last year, the weatherman was good to the Class of ' 62, favoring them with a mild and balmy day for their outdoor graduation, a most successful first at Longmeadow High School. Parents and friends of the graduates found the extra room and fresh air a pleasant change from the crowded auditorium. The Seniors, dressed in black and white caps and gowns listened attentively to guest speaker, Dr. Herold Hunt, of Harvard ' s Graduate School of Education, who spoke on Life ' s Priorities. This speech and the one made by Tom Clarke, president of the Class of 1962, held a deep and unforgettable meaning for each senior about to leave the familiar world of Longmeadow High and enter the world of college or career. This graduation was also a solemn occa- sion for Marshals Anne Murphy and Jim Finn and Ushers Mary Alice Astaldi, Sue Dale, Debbie Frisbie, Meredith Mudgett, Louise Siegel, Rick Cowles, Ronnie Kuzon, Rich Page, Steve Parker, and Joe Rowland, for it served as the introduction of their class to the responsibilities of senior year. f|H w T V,., ' t, ' V ' A smile and a handshake Words to be guided by sfsrsi aj 8 ;i ' n Pomp and Circumstance — the march they will never forget. 99 atretic wtrnmm H 232-40 41 FRONT ROW: Mr. Ursprung; Wells Chandler; Bill Diver; Don Temple; Steve Parker; Steve Goldberg; Bob Cohen; Steve McNaught; Mr. D ' Agostino.

FOOTBALL The Lancers finished the season as the only team in Western Massachu- setts with a record of no defeats and no ties. The big game was the first, against Enfield, the defending Subur- ban League Champions. In defense, Steve Parker, John Potter, and Steve Baldwin halted the Enfield passing attack, and the Raiders had to resort to a ground game for both T.D. ' s. However, quarterback Don Green- well ' s two touchdown runs and Steve Baldwin ' s conversion enabled the Lan- cers to come from behind and defeat the Raiders by a score of 14-12. With Enfield down and out, the Lancers were going all the way. In rapid succession South Hadley, Palmer, and Minnechaug fell to the tough Longmeadow squad. Co-Captain Steve Goldberg In Longmeadow ' s final game of the Suburban League, quarterback John Potter led the Lancers to a 20-6 victory over arch-rival East Longmeadow. The Spartans had possession until Baldwin tallied for the first touchdown on an East Longmeadow fumble. Later, he and Steve Parker scored for two more, and Don Temple supplied the conversion. The Lancer defense, led by Steve Goldberg, held the Spartan offense to only one touchdown. In the classical game Don Greenwell, recovering from a sprained ankle, came off the bench to win the game, passing to Baldwin and rushing twice. Because of their outstanding perfor mances during the season, Joe Chiusano, Bob Mauterstock, Steve Parker, Bruce Sutherland, and Gil Upson were selected for the All-Suburban-League team. Rugged lineman Bob Mauterstock was named All Western Massachusetts tackle. Co-Captains Steve Baldwin and Bob Mauterstock, assisted by many lettermen who will return next fall, look forward to another fine season — and another title. Suburban League Champs — that ' s something to be proud of.

SOCCER To quote Coach Suher, The 1962 soccer team was one of the finest teams ever assembled at Longmeadow High School. Its chief asset was the depth of the squad. At fullback, co-captain Rick Cowles, Bob Chaffee, Al Cowles, and Peter Leven played aggressive, hard-checking ball and at halfback, the hustle of co-captain Jim Finn, Pete Miller, Harry Ehrlich, and Art Bloom added to the effectiveness of the squad. Playing in the line were seniors Dave Streeter, Gary Gib- bons, Ron Kuzon, Rich Page, and Reed Cruess. Streeter was high scorer of the team with ten goals, followed by Gibbons with nine. Streeter was the outstanding player on the team as he could move the ball quickly down the sidelines, cross with either foot, and score. Co-captain Rick Cowles 104 The team started the season well, winning seven out of its first eight games. However, the squad was disappointed at the end of the season when five of the last six games were defeats, and the team ended with a record of 8 wins, 6 losses, and 2 ties. The most exciting game of the season was the game with Ludlow, played on their home field. It was a miserable, rainy afternoon and Ludlow was leading 2-1 near the end of the third period. With only seconds to play, the Lancer line rushed the Lud- low goal. Gary Gibbons headed the ball into the crossbar. It bounced off and Dave Streeter kicked it back, unluckily hitting the cross bar for the sec- ond time. As the ball rebounded, Rich Page drove it into the mouth of the goal, but a Ludlow player managed somehow to deflect it, and the game was over. Ludlow had won the hard-played game by a score of 2-1. In the post-season selections for the Pioneer Val- ley All-Star Team, Rick Cowles and Dave Streeter were placed on the first team, Jim Finn on the sec- ond team, and Bill Matulewicz, who was an excep- tionally fine goalie, received honorable mention. Next year ' s co-captains will be Harry Ehrlich, Bob Chaffee, and Al Cowles.

The squad lost its first game to Enfield by a score of 14-6 and tied its second game with West Springfield. The team ' s most satisfying game was their 24-0 defeat of Min- nechaug. Despite losing to Ludlow by 8 points, this was the first team to score against the Ludlow J.V. in three years. Throughout the season the team, with the strong performances of such players as Brian Margolis, Dave Blakeman, Bruce Van Dolson, Ben Boynton, and Don Ferris, worked hard to gain the experience needed for future varsity competition.

Under the coaching of Mr. Ryder and Mr. Burke, the freshman team played only three games, because of injuries, but many of its members played in J.V. 106 games. The squad tied its first game with Palmer with a score of 6-6 but lost its last two games with Ludlow and East Longmeadow by scores of 16-6 and 28-8 respectively. The team was supported by the outstanding playing of Jeff Diamond, Bart Frisbie, Al Gorrod, and Jim Martin.

The Junior Varsity Soccer Team, coached by Mr. Climo, ended the 1962 season with a fine record of eight wins, three losses, and one tie. The team ' s success may be attributed to a number of factors. Outstanding plays by Jeff Lyman, Robert Conti, and Dave Tomassetti sparked many winning games. The high scoring of George Busby often made the dif- ference between a win and a loss. The capable man- agement of John Smith and Robert Lezinski cannot be overlooked, as they contributed to the logistic support of the team. A notable achievement was the team ' s two victories over Southwick, rivals from the previous year. The fact that over three-fourths of the team con- sisted of sophomores seems to indicate that next year ' s varsity and junior varsity soccer teams will be ones to watch. ftt FRESHMAN SOCCER FRONT ROW: Kevin Donnelly; Bob Busby; John Down- ton; Ken Cohen; John Gushue; Peter Adriance; Bob John- son; Bob Lincoln; Robbie Ranahan; Reed Gramse; Clint Paige; Rich Johnson. Enthusiasm reigned supreme on the Freshman Soccer Team during this season. Although they did not enjoy a winning year, the boys made an excellent showing considering that they were matched against junior varsity teams from other schools. However, many schools are going to initiate freshman soccer teams, so in the future our frosh teams will be more equally matched. BACK ROW: Mr. Teixeira; Jim Sullivan; Scott Baird; Richie Kagan; Bob Goodhue; Chip Donahue; Frank D ' An- gelo; Charlie Ferguson; Eddie Merriam; Mike Finn; Steve Trepp; Dick Flint. Coach Teixeira sees a bright future for these spirited boys, as they showed real interest in per- fecting their ability. Outstanding performances were given by Scott Baird, Robbie Ranahan, Reed Gramse, Frank D ' Angelo, and Eddie Merriam. Longmeadow High School is looking forward to seeing the mem- bers of the Freshman Soccer Team spurring future junior varsity and varsity soccer teams to victory. 107 Mr. Josselyn; Bill Matulewicz; George Beilby; Mike Bet- ley; Bill Dyson; Clark Shattuck; Bob Russell; Gary Gib- VARSITY BASKETBALL bons; Jim Purdy; Steve Parker; Steve Baldwin; Gerry Shel- don; Wells Chandler. BASKETBALL The 1963 Longmeadow Basketball Team finished the season with a record of six wins and thirteen losses. It was only the second team in seven years to finish without a winning season. The main factor in the poor season was that the team lacked depth with only two returnees from last year ' s team. The brilliant ball-handling, shooting and rebounding of Captain Bill Matu- lewicz inspired the team to victories in six games. The starting team consisted of guards Gibbons and Beilby, center Matulewicz, and forwards Parker and Shattuck. The opening game against Ludlow was the worst of the season because the team was unsure of its cap abilities. The second, played at Minnechaug, was a spirited game as the score was tied in the last half minute at thirty-nine points. During the Christmas holidays, the team had the chance to avenge its first losses by playing Ludlow and Minnechaug in the Springfield College Invitational Tournament, but the loss of Bill Matulewicz through excessive personal fouls, left the team without the leader it needed. The highlights of the season were the games played with Agawam. In the first game Bill Matule- wicz had thirty-six points and led the team to a 62- Steve Parker 46 victory. In the rematch of the two teams at Aga- wam, Longmeadow won 70-69. Gary Gibbons and Steve Parker were high men with twelve points apiece. This game was a victory for team work and did not depend on the regular starters: Matulewicz, Gibbons and Beilby all fouled out, and Steve Baldwin, Mike Betley and Wells Chandler were the reserves that came off the bench to spark the victory. Next year ' s prospects look bright with the return of Clark Shattuck, Wells Chandler, Jim Purdy, Gerry Sheldon, Steve Baldwin, and Bill Dyson.

Under Coach Teixeira ' s firm, but gen- tle guiding hand, this year ' s junior varsity squad re- versed last year ' s record of four wins and ten losses, by battling their way to a record of ten wins and six losses. With skill and endless hours of practice backing them up, the squad made good use of clock- work plays and the fast break. An interesting note is that the J. V. team lost six games by an average of only 3.8 points per game — a very slim margin indeed! It is evident from this year ' s improved record, that the 1963-64 varsity team should begin the season with some good material. 109 WRESTLING FRONT ROW: Steve MacNaught; David Blakeman; Fred Hoekstra; Peter Graham; Roy Lithwin; Steve Wilson; Jeff Chandler.

Thanks to the efforts of Coach Har- BACK ROW: Skip Shatzer; Greg Dawson; Paul Rigali; Bob Mauterstock; Wayne Trebbin; Chip Arnold; Bruce Sutherland; Alan LaRose; Bruce Cantwell; Guy Lithwin; Mr. Harris. ris, the team gained much valuable experience in both practices and unofficial matches.

Although the hockey team ' s record of 1 win, 10 losses, and 4 ties is certainly not impressive when taken as cold fact, what they lacked in skill, they more than made up for in spirit. This spirit was shown in the way they jumped onto the ice, and in the way each of their hard-fought points was tallied. High scorers for the Lancers were Don Temple and John Potter. Next year ' s team, although es- sentially the same as this year ' s, will be hurt by the loss of seniors Don Temple, Bill Diver, and Dave Streeter.

Leading the Lan- cer sluggers was Don Greenwell, who finished the season with a fine batting average of .385. The team ' s batting average for the season was .291. We may well anticipate a great team for 1963, with the return of several varsity veterans and other able players taken from the 1962 jayvees. 112 Gary Gibbons Ronnie Kuzon Reed Cruess VARSITY BASEBALL Longmeadow Visitors 7 Classical 4 14 Palmer 13 3 South Hadley 7 5 Ludlow 6 16 Trade 20 Commerce 6 4 East Longmeadow ... 2 8 Minnechaug 9 10 West Springfield 2 8 Classical 9 2 East Longmeadow 9 13 Trade 3 5 Minnechaug 4 14 Ludlow 4 Tom Donnelly Jim Finn Batter Up! 113 JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL FRONT ROW: Bruce Van Dolson; Gerry Nannen; Chip Fossa; Jeff Lyman; Neil Rivchin; Paul Rigali; Dick Bond.

Although one of the most promising pitchers, Neil Rivchin, moved away this year, the remaining members of the J.V. squad will add strength to this spring ' s varsity team.

Winning only the last of seven games, the 1962 Freshman Baseball Team had trouble finding vic- tories. Although the record was disappointing to most fans, they rejoiced to see many promising play- ers begin to develop. Brian Margolis, the slugger of the team, had the highest batting average and the most home runs and triples. Dave Blakeman, Clark Shattuck, and Fred Varney developed the wizardry of future Warren Spahns. The last game of the freshman squad redeemed the season for many of the players and fans. The team ' s trouncing of West Springfield, six runs to three, ended their season on a note of hope. 114 GOLF GOLF Mike Betley; Craig Jackson; Frank Kraft; Steve Roberts; Dave Nissenbaum; Bob Patterson; Dave Streeter; Mr. Haskell.

Longmeadow ' s most striking win was over Minnechaug, a 9-0 victory. Top man in 1962 was Jay Deeley. He was backed up by Bill Simons, Jim Bateman and others who con- tributed their skills and energy to make the tennis team a fine squad. The highlight of the spring was our entering the Western Massachusetts Interscholastic Tennis Tour- nament, where we made a good showing: Jim Bate- man was not eliminated until the third round. 115 i I J VARSITY TRACK FRONT ROW: Dick MacGregory; Muggs Silansky; Chris Smith; John Hitz; John Puffer; Ron Finn; Dave Charles- worth; Mr. Ursprung.

TRACK Although several track records had been set dur- ing the year, and despite gruelling practices and tre- mendous team effort, the 1962 Track Team ended the season with one win, one second place, and six losses. Mr. Ursprung ' s fine coaching was exempli- fied by the individual accomplishments of three boys. Dave Charlesworth, the high scorer of the team, set a record of 10.4 seconds in the 100 yard dash and 53.3 seconds in the 440. His record in the 440 was set at the Western Massachusetts Track Meet and later Dave became the first Longmeadow trackman to participate in a state-wide meet held in Boston. Weightman Bob Mauterstock put the shot 46 feet 11 inches, and Bruce Sutherland threw the javelin 145 feet 1 inch. Now that the 1963 year is beginning, the team looks forward to a successful season. Finn Charles- worth and Daryl Richter look promising in the jumping events, while Bruce McCullough contri- butes to the shot put effort. Runners are Chip Ar- nold, Bob Fagin, Garry Twing, and George Busby. Rich Thai will throw the javelin. Mr. Ursprung feels that the experience gained in 1962 has trained this year ' s squad so that it will reverse some of these losses. 116 H ■ Bob Fagin Chris Smith VARSITY TRACK Longmeadow Visitors 39 Amherst 67 25 Agawam 84 411 2 East Longmeadow HVj 43 South Hadley 74 28 East Longmeadow 47 Vi 28 Minnechaug IV2 221 2 Cathedral II6 2 22i 2 Southwick 3 28 Agawam 89 92 3 Minnechaug 2A 2 A Al LaRose Steve Alport KJlP Ar) o 4- 4 H4H ' 1 FRONT ROW: Joan Finn; Margie Lauer; C.

Exceptional athletic ability marks their cheers, which often include cartwheels and handsprings.

GIRLS ' GYMNASTIC TEAM An enthusiastic gymnastic team was a most pleasant surprise to Longmeadow High School this year. Taking part in a tri-school meet with Minnechaug and East Longmeadow, our team won a sec- ond place, only a few points behind the winning school. The most im- pressive performances were given by Pam Regan on the trampoline, Mary Alice Astaldi on the balance beam and horse, and Candy Rock in free exercise. This first meet, held at Longmeadow High School, was a great success due to the large audience of Longmeadow students (mostly boys!) and the excellent showing made by the team. r .. ►?

DRILL TEAM The Longmeadow High School Drill Team is a team in the true sense of the word. Under the lead- ership of Captain Nancy Almgren, and Co-Captain Ann Jackson, the girls practiced diligently, morn- ings and afternoons, to perfect routines for all home football and basketball games. To increase the team ' s pulling-together spirit, a change was made this year. Instead of the captain ' s composing all the drills, some of the routines for bas- ketball season were made up by the members. At Dad ' s Day, sponsored by the Student Council, the Drill Teamers did their part by greeting, and seating the football dads.

The Girls ' Bas- ketball Team met faithfully each afternoon as Miss Kyle ass isted the girls with shooting, passing, and many other skills in which a varsity team must be proficient. The team ' s efforts were rewarded as they gave strong performances in two games with Suf- field. The promise for next year is excellent too. as this talented team is made up of many juniors who will be able to play again. 119 =o ' ' -, 2SBlLl3L w. ; X - 4 LEADKRS CLUB umUmML.

The girls have shown originality both in the cheers they use and in the choice of their uniforms — black skirts and white sweaters, instead of the traditional Lancer plaid. Cheering on the freshman squad will provide valuable expert ience for future varsity cheer- leaders. Tifc i ■ . t i 1 4  i iiii.

Made up almost entirely of girls who were playing their first season of field hockey, the team made impressive showings against such formidable opponents as East Longmeadow and MacDuffie. Facing frigid temperatures as the season entered November, the team was forced to wear football coats and earmuffs at one of the games against MacDuffie! Longmeadow High School should be proud of these girls who represented our school with skill and sportsmanship.

We were already anticipating the day, three years hence, when we would be mighty Lancers. Yet, we still cherished our newly-acquired positions as high school students. While we were staggering under the unaccustomed burden of high school work, our class advisers, Miss Baird and Mr. Joly, aided us in conducting class elections. We chose Charles Carter, Steve Parker, Meredith Mudgett, and Bar- bara Licht to lead our class. Next we cast our ballots for Meredith Mudgett, Mary Alice Astaldi, Frank Kraft, and Charles Carter, as our representatives to the Student Coun- cil Round Table. Our duties as Pages included serving as slaves and glad- iators at the Latin Banquet. Also, nine of our girls, Sue Dale, Jean Summersgill, Sue Henry, Sandy Dyson, Mere- dith Fordyce, Sue Sterritt, Liza Stokes, Carolyn Snow, and Karen Stothert, appearing as Vestal Virgins, sang Latin chorals. However, we freshmen soon proved our mettle in com- petition with upperclassmen. In the annual Science Fair, David Barrett and Gregory Pearson received Honorable Mention. David ' s project, Preparation of Organic Dye- stuffs, involved the arduous preparation of polychromatic dyes. In his detailed work, Phase Equilibrium, Greg plotted the freezing points of various salt-water mixtures. In the field of dramatics Karen Stothert distinguished her- self as understudy for Mama in Papa is All. Carrying our colors, many of our freshman boys dem- onstrated unusual athletic ability. Steve Goldberg, an out- standing football player, was selected for the varsity foot- ball team. Steve Parker excelled in football, basketball, and baseball; Charles Carter in football, hockey, and baseball; and Gary Gibbons starred in soccer, basketball, and base- ball. Among our other champions were David Streeter and Rick Cowles, who excelled in soccer; and Frank Kraft, who did the same in hockey. En masse, we freshmen displayed our school spirit by cheering for our varsity basketball team at the exciting Small School Invitational Basketball Tournament in March. Our team tried valiantly to beat Amherst Regional High School, but we missed the victory by three points. Finishing the year with a flourish, we staged a success- ful dance, Spring on Wings. Then we fastened our hopes on the next year, when we would don the garments of older, wiser, and more sophisticated Squires. The next fall, eager to make our mark at Longmeadow High, we plunged enthusiastically into school activities. Once again we elected class officers: Steve Parker, presi- dent; Charles Carter, vice-president; Meredith Mudgett, secretary; and Kathy Kelly, treasurer. Our new leaders quickly began preparations for our annual class dance, which this year had a wintry theme, Ice Palace. During this year we found many new opportunities to prove our merit. In March, a Model Congress assembled at A.I.C., with Peter Cherbas, David Arlen, Guy Lithwin, and Aron Kronenberg as our representatives. Each dele- gate presented a bill; the Congress passed Aron Kronen- berg ' s bill concerning the licensing of foreign radio ama- teurs in the United States and its possessions and terri- tories. A similar venture, the Model United Nations at Wellesley College, was attended by sophomores Karen Stothert, Kathy Kelly, John Baron, and David Barrett as delegates from Thailand. Before going to Wellesley, this group visited the United Nations at New York, in order to confer with the ambassador from Thailand about Thai policy. At the Science Fair, we Squires proved that some know- ledge was seeping through our iron helmets: Linda Silver- man won first prize in the general science division with her project, The Science of Clocks and Calendars ; in the field of physics, Peter Cherbas ' explanation of The Value of Pi received honorable mention; and Fridel-Crafts Syn- thesis by David Barrett placed third in the chemistry division. To add a light note to the year, our Student Council rep- resentatives, Mary Alice Astaldi, Meredith Mudgett, Steve Parker and Charles Carter, helped to sponsor a teachers ' baby-picture contest. Miss Gadaire and Mr. Suher were crowned queen and king of Babyland, amid general hilarity and rejoicing. The great success of Lancer sports this year was naturally due to the addition of several sophomores to the varsity teams. Steve Goldberg was an outstanding member of the football team, the only undefeated team in Western Massa- chusetts. Bill Matulewicz helped the varsity basketball team to win every game except one, while Steve Parker led the junior varsity. First place in the Suburban League was won by our excellent hockey team, assisted by sophomores Dave Streeter and Frank Kraft. Lancers were also well represented at the Western Mas- sachusetts Small Schools Tournament, where our twice-vic- torious basketball team lost in the third and final round to Ludlow by the disappointing score of 41-39. Although there was no Girls ' Sport Night, Pam Regan, Mary Alice Astaldi, and Barbara McGuire successfully rep- resented our school at several gymnastic meets. At the end of the year everyone flocked to the very successful production of Oklahoma! which was under the direction of Mr. Burkle and Mr. Warner. Elinor Shatz as Aunt Eller, and David Streeter as Will Parker skillfully represented our class in leading roles. Charles Carter, Steve Fox, Steve Parker, and Craig Jackson also played well in supporting roles. As we grew in years, so we grew in importance until we reached our experimental period — that of Standard Bearers. In this capacity it was our responsibility to aid our upperclassmen, and to prove ourselves worthy of the posi- tion we would assume as seniors. Leading our class were our efficient officers: Steve Parker, president, Jim Finn, vice- president, Meredith Mudgett, secretary, and Nancy Almgren, treasurer. In junior year we felt the growing responsibilities of leadership. Our last two years spent- as Pages and Squires seemed, in retrospect, to have been carefree and gay. We rose to this challenge; many of the members of our class brought us fame. Karen Stothert was chosen as the co- editor of the Masacksic, training for the full responsibility she would assume in senior year. In the field of entertain- ment, Greg Grandison and Dave Streeter received parts in 1963 the school ' s production of The Skin of Our Teeth. In girls ' sports Mary Alice Astaldi and Karen Hardy were elected to carry the standards into the Jet and White fight. Nancy Almgren and Pam Regan served as co-captains for the Drill Team and Cheerleaders respectively, waving our banners at all the competitions- Unwilling to let our predecessors outdo us, our class took an active part in the American Field Service pro- gram. From a distinguished field of semi-finalists (Greg Pearson, Meredith Mudgett, and Louise Seigel), Mary Alice Astaldi was chosen to represent us in the Philippines dur- ing the summer. Heading the AFS drive and serving on the selection committee were the two student representatives, Greg Pearson and Judy Leers. Spurred on by praise, we raised our banners even higher, and our Student Council sent Meredith Mudgett as its representative to Student Government Day. Funday also brought us merit as Jim Finn and Steve Parker arranged the show in which juniors participated. The culmination of our activities as Standard Bearers came with the presentation of our Junior Prom, Camelot, organized around a medieval setting by co-chairmen Jim Finn and Nancy Almgren. Reigning as king and queen were Jim Finn and Mary Alice Astaldi. Our prowess in the field of sports was shown by the members of the junior class who were honored for their ability. Spurring our football team to victory were Steve Parker, Bob Cohen, and Steve Goldberg; and playing on the soccer team were Dave Streeter, Rick Cowles, Jim Finn, Rich Page, and Gary Gibbons. Winter sports were also dominated by our class members: Dave Streeter and Frank Kraft in hockey; and Steve Parker, Tom Donnelly, Bob Patterson, Steve Goldberg, and Bill Matulewicz in basketball. In the spring our baseball team was bolstered by Reed Cruess, Ron Kuzon, and Tom Donnelly, while our tennis team included Jim Sagalyn, Rich Page, Jim Bate- man, and Steve Fox. Rounding out the sports scene was the golf team with its members Dave Streeter, Frank Kraft, Mike Betley, Steve Roberts, Bob Patterson, and Craig Jackson. Our endeavors as Standard Bearers were rewarded at the final assembly in May, when book awards were given and Honor Society members were honored for their achieve- ments. Meredith Mudgett and Suzanne Valliere were se- lected as representative and alternate to Girls ' State, and Mary Alice Astaldi, as Honorary Host to the Governor at the Eastern States Exposition. Completing our busy junior year we found ourselves ready for the big step that awaited us. We would now ex- change our positions as Standard Bearers for those of Longmeadow Lancers. With the addition of a large freshman class to Long- meadow High School, we seniors witnessed several inno- vations in the school routine. To accommodate the increased number of pupils, the school administrators, directed by our new superintendent, Dr. Robert Russell, added a fourth lunch period and changed the two activity periods at the end of the day to a shortened G-Block. Also they trans- formed the Student Activities Room into Classroom 37. The language department installed a language lab for supplementary French, Spanish and Latin instruction. The Business Club, under the direction of Mr. Dankevich, in- troduced a school bookstore. Lastly, the student body es- tablished three new clubs, the Ski Club, the Riding Club, and the Great Books Club. As the year progressed, the bulging school population neccessitated additional classroom and cafeteria space. Plans for these needed additions were drawn up and passed at the town meeting in March. Ably leading the pupils of Longmeadow High School in the Student Council were three members of our class, Steve Parker, president; Meredith Mudgett, secretary; and Mary Alice Astaldi, treasurer. Serving as senior class officers were Jim Finn, president; Richard Cowles, vice-president; Meredith Mudgett, secretary; and Nancy Almgren, treasurer. Our class proved itself composed of brilliant scholars and accomplished musicians as well as capable leaders. Four of our members (John Baron, Peter Cherbas, Martha Gal- braith, and Frank Weitzman) reached the finalist stage of the National Merit Scholarship Competition. Twelve sen- iors (David Arlen, David Barrett, Judy Leers, Chuck Long, Richard Page, Greg Pearson, Robert Russell, Jack Settle, Janice Siegel, Karen Stothert, Freya Wolk, and Peter Yea- ger) received letters of commendation. Also nine seniors (Martha Galbraith, Carolyn Zwirn, Jack Settle, Sandy Dy- son, Mary Lane, Taffy O ' Donnell, Meredith Mudgett, Judy Waskiewicz, and Frank Weitzman) won awards for their essays on patriotism submitted during their junior year. Representing the senior class at the Western Massachusetts District Concert were eleven of our members: in the chorus were Sandy Dyson, Craig Jackson, and David Streeter and taking part in the orchestra were John Baron, Ronni Bloom, Roy dela Cruz, Gregory Pearson, Karen Stothert, and Peter Cherbas. Peter, a talented violinist, also qualified for the All-Eastern Orchestra. Debbie Frisbie represented Longmeadow in the District Band. The fall football tourney was dominated by our team, led by Steve Goldberg, Bob Cohen, and Steve Parker. We won every game; thus we completed the school ' s second undefeated season in a row and became the only western Massachusetts football team to do this. We carried the Suburban League Crown to our great hall and placed it with the other trophies our champions have won. In soc- cer, our team placed second in the Pioneer Valley League, sparked by the excellent playing of Richard Cowles, Jim Finn and Gary Gibbons. In basketball, Bill Matulewicz, assisted by Gary Gibbons and Steve Parker, boosted our lagging team. David Streeter, powerful defenseman, helped our fledging hockey squad. Many of our number also took part in South Pacific, the school play. Leading the cast of amateurs were Ronni Bloom as Nellie Forbush, David Streeter as Lieutenant Cable and Mary Alice Astaldi as Liat. Steve Fox, Bob Pat- terson, Craig Jackson, Gene Sokolowski, Sue Hulit, Sandy Dyson, Libby Pierce and several other talented seniors played their parts in making this musical production a success. As seniors, we proudly carried on the Lancer tradition. In our studies and extracurricular activities we proved ourselves capable leaders. Having passed the successive ranks of Page Squire, and Standard Bearer, we now as Lancers, merited the accolade of graduation.
