As the years went on, we came to know each other in a more sensitive way and we grew closer. ry We grew with each other, shared dreams and ideas, and made many friends. Some we will keep close forever, Some we will keep only in memories. 4 We soon saw ourselves‘as a class, instead of as separate individuals. So we formed a special, golden bond that held us together with security and a sense of pride in all our reminiscences. apnea NHS: a At times in the last year of our journey we strayed from the path. We were the victims of change; we faced a testing. By our reactions new ideas were tried, new rules were made, new paths were charted. As the last of our moments together grew near, we sensed the peace of quiet reflection and the value of old friends. Suddenly our memories acquired distinctive meaning. They were all we would have - throughout our lives they would link us to our past, and become a bridge to thoughts of our youth. At the crossroads of life we were thrust into a new and unfamiliar world. Here our successes and failures would depend upon thoughtful planning and careful decision. The skills and experience we had gathered in our yesteryear were now a bare foundation. We stepped into a world to find our own ways to live, our own steps to take, our own journeys to travel.

Many more come after us, each making new changes, charting new paths. 11 12 We fashioned beautiful memories in our years, times that will always be treasured, times that will linger forever through endless echoes in the halls of Ludlow High. 14 Cheryl Abair Deborah Bello Carlos Alves Angela Bellorini David Alves Maria Bartisra Jeffrey Bernarowicz Theresa Berrhiaume David Blais Marie Bradway Tina Brodericls Mario Carneiro Antonio Carvalho Louis Casagrande Janine Charbonneau 15 16 Jay Crescentini Anronio Crespo Domingos Crespo Paula Crerella Helder DaSilva David Dube Donna Dubour Marc Denetre Barbara Duquerre Tina Desaurels Michael Duquerre 17 Judy Dymon William Ellison Helen Emery Linda Fabbre James Ferrara Fernanda Ferreira Roslyn Fidalgo Regina Fillion Donna Fioravanti Noreen Fitzpartricls David Flowers Jeffrey Fontaine 18 Robert Fonraine Heidi Gallo Kim Gaughan Fernanda Gomes Martha Frederre Maria Ganho Se Grace Gomes Pamela Garrow Timothy Giza Fernanda Goncalves Jose Goncalves 19 20 Maria Goncalves Nancy Hegy Mary Ann Hoover Ann Hilbert Janice Howard Catherine Hill Tracey Hughes James Haluch Kimberly Hill Michael Hurley John Hurst , SNS Brian Jarvis Michael!

Under the inspirati on of its three faculty advisors, and Tim Mullins as President, the freshmen were involved in a myriad of activities, including shows, dances, and community service projects. And whar freshman will forget those towels, or the trio to McDonald's? Indeed the ‘little brothers and sisters’ had a very promising beginning of their high school years. 36 CLASS OF 82 es es By definition, sophomore is a Greek compound meaning ‘wise fool.’ Once again, however, no fools these sophomores be. They became very visible and valuable members of many school athletic and extracurricular activities. The faculty advisors and class officers, with Danny Lavoie serving as President, organized the traditional Sophomore Banquet foward the end of the year. The sophomores are now ready and anxious fo begin the second half of their high school years. 38 40 CLASS OF 81 Although the Latin root of the word junior’ means ‘lesser’ this year’s Junior Class was not af all suited to such a definition. With the help of four faculty advisors, and led by class President Mary-jo Perella, the juniors conducted successful fundraisers, and held the traditional Junior Dance. Two highlights of the year for the juniors occurred in the spring. The Junior Prom, held ar Chez-Josef was as beautiful as the weather of the evening itself. Larer, more than half the class particjoated in ''The Rose”, the traditional Senior Assembly given by juniors on the 29th of May — and the seniors agreed it was one of the best ever. The Class of 1981, with continuing enthusiasm and creativity should enjoy a 'super’’ senior year. al . , ‘ . . . 4] 42 44 “GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED” AARAEES weantl MAE Y i Y — Goespvl) Z oa = 7 be oe ee ew = g gk After thirty -four years in education, John J. Hurley, Principal of Ludlow High School has come to his retirement. Although we are happy that many of his worries will be over, we are sad fo thins that he will no longer provide us with his intelligence, compassion, and guidance. John J. Hurley is no ordinary man. He is a man who has spent his life achieving significant goals. His heroics in WW Il, his winning ways as an athletic coach, his uncanny ability to reach students in his classes are few reminders of the kind of person who has served as the administrative leader of L.H.5. for fourteen years. As Principal, Mr. Hurley survived well fhe turbulence in education which has beset this nation for more than a decade. He survived because he never tolerated the ridiculous, yer was never guilty of the same himself. He has been loved and respected by generations of students. As principal, he earned the firm confidence of the school staff. Head Ceach 1946-1780 Ludlow High RETIREMENT PARTY Perhaps as life goes on af Ludlow High, and as the Class of 1980 becomes a number in the history book of this school, a final word in tribute to John J. Hurley is in order. Whar will the record show? John Hurley inspired us to go abour our business, to get the job done, and to think about our own furures. Through his character, we might have learned to laugh a little, to understand people berter, and to try something new. Above all, John Hurley's single Most impressive quality in his thirty-four year fenure has been humility. 45 46 He could never be unkind, never selfish, never arrogant. He has done all that a man can do in this life to make a positive maris. Those of us, the young, and noftso young who worked under his leadership, should rejoice that one who has worked so hard for so long will now have abundant time to spend with the family he loves. Bur John Hurley willl remember for as long as he reads this, thar Ludlow High School will surely miss him — the man who has been the proverbial ‘father’ for us all. Now we wish him thar which he has always wished us: ‘'Good luck and Godspeed!’ Mr. Charles A.

Coach Mar- ino inherited an inexperienced offensive unir in his first year af the helm. Bur the defense, led Co-capr. Buddy Ellison, Mike Carolan, Joe Harrington, Chucis Narario, and Milke Hurley, was hard-as-nails tough. The quar- terback of this ygar's squad was sophomore Steve Gosci- minski.

One bright spor, however, was the spirited play of Brian Clough. Brian, a 6'3” senior center led the Lions with a very resspecrable 12.4 points per game average. Another was two year varsity forward, Len Gonyea, who will be back fo lead the Lion squad nexf season. Other strong efforts were rurned in by senior Angy Casagrande, sophomore Doug Anderson, junior Tom Dumaine, and the remainder of underclassmen who played both varsity and junior varsity. With a very talented group of freshmen and sophomore players coming up and the fact thar Ludlow had the youngest starting five in the Valley Wheel, there is a strong hope thar the Ludlow Lions could be the strongest surprise in the loop next season.

Re 123 124 HOCKEY This year's edition of the Ludlow High School Hockey Team survived an up and down year on an upbear nore. After struggling early in the season, the pucksters pur on a charge and finished with a 14-5-1 record in the comperitive Fay Division. This was good enough for third place behind Minnechaug and Longmeadow. Because the fournament committee thought there were many good, division fwo teams, Ludlow had to play East Longmeadow to ger into the final eight. They han- dled a stubbron Spartan team 512 to earn the 7 seed and a meeting with 2 Pittsfield. With the largest crowed of the season and the newly-formed hockey cheerleaders leading them on, the team gave a spirited effort bur lost 4-3. Giving fine performances throughour the season were all-Vestern Mass. defensemen Steve Garrow, the leading defensemen scorer; Larry Holdsworth, who was among the top five division socrers; and Pete Miccoly, who was among the top ten division scorers. Strong jobs were turned in by underclassmen Kevin Picard, Dan Lavoie, Ken Mastalarz, Dean Adams, David Rossi, and frosh Scorr Rertew. The upperclassmen gave fine efforts also, while providing needed leadership. Chris LeBlanc, Steve Sady, Jeff Santos, Jim Machado, Dennis Baillargeon, Joe Ra- mage, and Steve Garrow led this team by setting an example for the younger players. Coach Milse Parent feels he has the falent and enthusiasm fo have an excellent ream next season ...

In one meer, Ludlow finished a strong second, and if nor for some untimely injuries, might have improved upon its finish.

The ream strug- gled for much of fhe season as some inexperi- ence showed. The team went much of the year with three sophomore outfielders who showed great improvement by season's end. Although the record did nor indicate positive signs,.. many players did have good streaks and or seasons. Steve Garrow wenf an in- credible 20 at bats in a row where he reached base. Also, he had a fine season af shortstop which is a key position. Jeff Bernatowicz was an iron man on the mound and suffered many tough breaks during the season. Orher seniors who played big roles were first baseman Don Frigan, second baseman Angy Casagrande, pitcher Ken Young, and utility players Brian Clough and Chuck Narario. Many underclass- men earned varsity letters, while the JV and Frosh were solid.

The girls started quickly as they won their first three games over Commerce, Putnam, and Longmeadow. Then came some tough losses until fhe team bear East Longmeadow. The second half of the year was nof good to the girls as they lost tough, one-run games fo Amherst, 7-6 and 1-0, and East Longmeadow, 9-8. One of the best efforts was turned in against Valley League powerhouse, Chicopee, buf if was nor to be as Chicopee won 12-8. The ream was always competitive which showed thar Coach Sullivan and the four captains, Denise Lavoie, Debbie Sr. Peter, Cindy Colucci, and Hayley Dias all did a strong job.

Although the team did nor go unde- feated, it did finish with a 12-6-1 record and a share of the Valley Wheel crown. Then, at fhe Western Mass. Cham- pionshio, the Lion Linsmen swung their way fo a four shor victory over Longmeadow and 14 other schools. The home course advantage turned our to be big as John Henriques and Wally Les both fashioned 76's over the shortened Westover Golf Club layour. Also ‘'chipping in” were Curk Burgess and Ricls Burels, who had 80 and 83, respectively. The team then journeyed to Worcester and the state tourney, bur the team finished a disap- pointing seventh. In individual events, both Wally Les and Curk Burgess tied for fourth in the Western Mass event and placed well in the state tournament. Making strong contributions to the feam were Larry Holdsworth, Ray Fioravanti, and Mike Laurin. These three, along with John Henriques and Wally Les give Coach Holdsworth much hope for next season. above left: The 1980 Ludlow High School Golf Team below left: Curls Burgess shows how fo gef spin our of the sand below: Ricks Burek shows a feathery putting rouch above right: Wally Les shows some near flawless form below right: The coach of the team, Larry Holdsworth right middle, top: John Henriques makes a tough putt right bottom: Ray Fioravanti puts everything into his drive far right: Larry Holsworth, Jr. bombs this one with a strong effort. 133 134 TRACK The 1980 Ludlow Tracls Team had a very encouraging season. The team's record did nor reflect the actu- al competitiveness the athletes showed. No less than five meefs went down to the final event. Tracls is a very individual sport and many goals were reached. Two school re- cords fell; one in th e high jump and one in the pole vaulr. Fred Rebstocl leaped 511’, while Chris Sr. Peter and Frank Molé vaulted 11'6’’. Also, in the Western Mass and Valley Wheel meets, some Lions did very well. In the Valley Wheel meer, Alana Bor- den won the 2-mile run for girls, Bill Comtois finished second in the shor put, while Fred Rebsrocis, Rob Barzcz, Jim Haluch, and Craig McKay finished fifth in their events.

Thanks to the wit and thoughtfulness of their advisors, Mrs. Cavallo, Mrs. Girard, Mr. Dzuira, and Mr. Corti, the seniors were given a week of roral frivolity entitled ‘The Final Five.” Ir all started in December, when at the Senior Christmas Party the senior class advisors gave the class a present wrapped in a huge box. When uncovered, all that was found inside was a plaque with five compartments, all sealed by a padlock on one end. Mr. Dzuira explained the rules; in each compartment of the plaque, there was concealed a message ex- plaining a different event for each day of the seniors’ last weels at Ludlow High. The week of ''The Final Five” finally came and it proved to be one of the most exciting five days ever to hit Old Ludlow High. On Day One,” the seniors were treated to Sundaes served by the administra- tion. ‘Day Two” was button day. To obrain a button, the student had to figure our rhymes describing a specific teacher. Then if fhe student gor to one of the teachers on the list in time, he or she was given a button with a number on the back. The student receiving the luclsy number won a pair of tickets fo the Yale Bowl concert. Debbie Johnson was the lucky recipient of the two tickets. On ‘Day Three’ the advisors gave us a memory box for our fifth reunion. The box consisted of paraphernalia collected during the four years af Ludlow High. “Day Four’’ was Senior Olympics,’ a day of different events. Seniors had to pair up to be part of the events. First, Second, and Third place finalists in each game were given points. The ream with the highest point toral was awarded four tickers to the Yale Bowl concert. There was a close battle; however, the team of Clair Myers and Tony Nogueira emerged as victors. ‘'Day Five,” the last of ‘The Final Five’ put a few pounds on all of us. This time the seniors were treated fo pizza and grinders from the Indian Orchard Pizzeria. If was a day of relaxation, fest, and music; a great ending fo a great weels. Thanks, advisors!
