FRIENDSHIP Oh, the comfort—the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person Having neither to weigh thoughts, Nor measure words—but pouring AU right out —just as they are— Chaff and grain together— w Certain that a faithful hand will trrV'” ‘ Take and sift them— V-n r-' 3 ,}j Keep what is worth keeping— And with the breath of kindness '� .Vv - .' Blow the rest away. ! V SP ■' v. ? Dinah Maria Mulock Craik ’ V, v � r f, , W — ■ V ;• '� .V . 'r THE SENIOR CLASS OF MERCY HIGH SCHOOL RIVERHEAD. NEW YORK PRESENTS THE 1968 MONARCH VOL. IX FOREWORD FRIENDSHIP . . . One of the greatest feelings man can experience is friendship. Friendship is essential to us as Chris- tians because to know and love God, we must first know and love man. It is not necessarily a one person- to another relationship. In essence, friendship must become a communal mentality if we are to exist on this earth in peace and harmony. It is here at Mercy that we have learned to live as a community of fellow men. Each one of us has given something to another ... the untangible reality of friendship. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye.” Because of the importance of this quality, we, the class of 1968 have chosen friendship as the theme of our yearbook. Friendship does not exist at Mercy only after school, at dances and games. It is existent all during the school day. Without friends, a person can not exist ... for no man is so important as to be able to live as a complete individual, in- dependent of everyone. Friendship is a treasure ... let us hope that we will always have this wealth, and will share it with others. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION..

PAGE 122 HIGHLIGHTS PAGE 154 FACULTY What is a faculty without spirit or without an honest interest in its students? We at Mercy couldn’t say, because our faculty has this spirit and concern for all. The faculty shows friendship, not only toward each other, but toward the students as well. How many times have you seen a group of students crowded around a mem- ber of the faculty, laughing and joking? How many times have the busloads of students gone around the convent twelve o’clock at night, shouting, We won! and waited for that well-known click of the light saying, Well done! This is an extraordinary friendship, found in few schools, between the student body and the faculty. Yet, coupled with this friendship, there is also a firm respect, on the part of the students, for the faculty. It is on this foundation of friendship that the success of M.H.S. lies. 5 HIS HOLINESS POPE PAUL VI Necessary is the deep thought and reflection of wise men in search of a new humanism which will enable modern man to find himself anew by embracing the higher values of love and friendship, of prayer and contemplation.” Pope Paul’s Encyclical— On the Development of People 6 His Excellency the Most Reverend VINCENT J.

In our first three years, friendship meant people to have fun with, people to trust, and to confide in. Finally, in our Senior year, this feeling of friendship deepened into a firm respect for one another. With these friendships, we have felt the warm light of joy, and occasionally the cold darkness of sorrow. These have helped to temper our characters for our journey through life. Friendship has opened a door for us ... it has made us involved. Through involvement, through friendship, we will reach a suc- cessful outcome of all our endeavors. This year, all our freshman dreams, sophomore hopes, and junior antici- pations came true. All of us, as friends, have finally reached our climax ... the successful end of our career at Mercy.

CLASSES There are fifteen totally different homerooms of underclassmen in Mercy High, yet in each one of those classes, there is one unifying bond. That bond is friendship. No matter how different the juniors are from the sophomores, and how more sophisticated” the sophomores are than the freshmen, in one quality they are equal. Friendship makes them equal. Friendship unites the three grades. As friends, they look towards their Senior year and look forward to all the privileges they will have as upper- classmen. The classes of ’69, 70, and '71 are striving toward one goal, one fulfill- ment. Together they are working towards Senior year, towards graduation. They are working as friends and as friends they will succeed. No student can do it on his own. No single person is so capable that he need not rely on other people. United by the bond of friendship, however, the underclass- men will succeed. • JUNIORS ANTICIPATE THE The dream we have had for three years is approaching reality. In Junior year we must make the decisions which have been of our least concern in previous years. All that we have learned, the abilities we have developed, and the interests we have acquired must be considered in planning our future. The desire to increase our knowl- edge must be present if we wish to go on with further study. But not everyone expresses that desire. And no less laudable are those who choose to enter the business world. At Mercy we are presented with courses that allow us to select either field confidently. Another very important factor in the selection of an occupation, whether it is college or business, is our ability to communicate with and react among people. As Juniors at Mercy we should have a good background of association with people. The students we have been with constantly for three years are of varied dispositions. Some have become very dear to us and others are casual acquaintances. But the mere fact that we have spent time with one another has had an effect on us. Our consideration for and attitude towards each other during these years will influence our success or failure in future years.

Now as sopho- mores we have become established members of the student body. We are well acquainted with Mercy's rules, regulations, faculty, curriculum and lay-out. We have had opportunity to renew old friendships and make new ones, many of which will last for a lifetime. Through these friend- ships we have learned the value of trust and co- operation. Sophomore year is the midpoint in a student's high school career. It is in some cases the most difficult of the four years. Hard work and study is a must at this time. If a student produced poor grades as a freshman, there is still time to bring them up; on the other hand, if he has been a good student, continuous study is still necessary. All in all, sophomore year is the year to grow up , to mature, to have more serious interests. An important part of this change is friend- ship. Our friends will make the job easier, and more rewarding. Joe Cartoski asks the cameraman to please include him in the picture.

Fresh- man year has so much to offer, and there is so much to be learned. The variety' of experiences lived through by the freshman is immeasurable. One of the most important things that a freshman learns is how to get along with people. In later years, the knowl- edge and training we have acquired will aid us in attaining success but what will count most is our ability to relate to people. Life revolves around people, there- fore, what better place is there for learn- ing how to be a friend, and what friend- ship really is, than in high school. This is a lesson we freshmen learn almost immediately. Throughout all the classes, English, science, religion, world geography, al- gebra, and Latin, one feeling, one quality pervades. It was during this year that a tre- mendous amount of growing up was accomplished. It was in this year that students appreciated what true friend- ship really entails. Top row, left to right: T.

Part of the knowledge, experience, and responsibility acquired in high school is learned in extracurricular activities. In a club, those of similar likes and dislikes can work together. Students with the same talents are united through activities, where strong and lasting friendships are born. By associating with people with whom we have something in common, we naturally make friends. As time goes on, through these friendships, we form a wider outlook on life, and become interested in various fields. All of this takes place after three o’clock each afternoon in Mercy High School. Whether it be Chess Club for the serious minded, Art Club for the creative, or Dramatics for the talented, each of these activities has in common its ability to bring individuals together and unite them. Friendships are the outcome of such a variety of activities. 89 THE LIGHT OF KNOWLEDGE SHINES The President of Mercy's National Honor Society, Peter Malet, conducts the induction ceremony. The Mercy chapter of the National Honor Society consists of students who have been selected for their outstand- ing accomplishments in the qualities of leadership, scholarship, service, and character. The purpose of this society is, not to praise those who have achieved these goals, but to accentuate the im- portance of these qualities through the example of the members. Under the direction of Sister Mary Gerard the National Honor Society members, through scholarship programs, hope to inspire students to apply them- selves in their school work and to devel- op their characters.

The Mission Club provides the kinds of activities which build students into mature and aware adults. Sue Gillespie and Sharon Bangston listen as Sr. Mary Anacletus explains about the missions. Georgianna Gregor hopes that the box is large enough. MUSIC IS THE POETRY OF SOUND Mercy's answer to the Beatles. This year Mercy tried again; the Band was included among the list of extracurricular activities. Through the skilled direction of their conductor, Mr. Ralph Springer, and the guidance of Sr. Mary Leo, the members were inspired to do their best and to express themselves through their music. The club has fulfilled its main purpose, to offer to those interested in music a chance to play and to develop their musical talent. And a one, and a two, and a one, two, three,” directs Mr. Springer. George Halsey is a fine example of the band's deter- mination to succeed. The Legion of Mary is Mercy’s re- ligious society. Through a special devotion to Mary as the Mother of God, the Legion, under the direction of Sister Mary Lucia and Sister Mary' Andrea, aids in propagating the faith and of- fering assistance to the needy. In view of the many liturgical changes in the Church, this year the Legion has re- vised itself. Tradi- tional prayers have been omitted, pro- gress reports are not mandatory and more informal dis- cussions are held. This new format has worked very well and will most likely be continued in the future.

Because of the efforts and hard work on the part of the Yearbook staff, the student body is able to look back on the past year and mingle laughs with tears as they remember the joys and sorrows of all the growing up done this year. The Yearbook is something to which the students look forward all year long, and so Sister Mary Pia and the staff have attempted to include, within its publica- tion, all the special events which have occurred in classes, clubs, and during social activities. These are what make up a school; these are what make up Mercy High School. These dedicated members of the staff, Kathy McGee, Sue Doroski, and Kathie Raynor, work overtime to meet the deadline. 98 A VOLUME OF MEMORIES Jon Platt works on an enlargement in the dark room.

Through its award winning newspaper Mercy Highlights, it has captured key moments of defeat and victory. The aim of any good newspaper is to inform its public, and that is exactly what Mercy High- lights has strived to do. By switching to offset printing, getting more pictures and better arti- cles, the paper has become bigger and better this year. George Alberti finds the photographer more interesting than the newspaper business. 103 These scissors are sharper than I thought! exclaims Sister Mary Venard. ART IS THE CREATION OF Nobody believed me when I said it was a polar bear in a snowstorm , sighs Regina Romanowski.

The main objectives of this special group, besides singing for their own enjoyment, are to acquire a deeper appreciation for the art of choral music, and through performances, to share their talent and enthusiasm with others.

Stefne Jurgielewica, Susan Carlone, and Denise Buckheit reply, good things come in little bottles. When Kenneth Kinman and Joe Zaremba are involved, two heads are better than one. SPEECH - Now, that's a good point to bring up, says Paul Verderese. Mercy's Forensic Club was founded to give the student at Mercy the opportunity to devel- op skilled, articulate speech. The Club, moderated by Sister Mary Joachim and Sister Mary Leonie, works in areas of Ex- temporaneous Speech, Original Oratory, Oratorical Declama- tion, and Dramatic Interpreta- tion. As a member of the Rock- ville Center Diocesan Catholic Forensic League, Mercy’s For- ensic Club participated monthly in the tournaments sponsored by the League. 110 It works! exclaims Sister Mary Joachim to Julie Ritzer and Thomas McKay.

The Chess Club, moderated by Sr. Mary Li- guori, has had a very good year. The club gathered to challenge opponents to friendly wars of trained minds and proven military stratagems. Each move had a significance and every piece on the board was valuable. The game is es- sentially one of predictability—knowing when to move from defense to offense, when to use a piece to the best advantage. Each chess player is a military commander deciding when and where to strike, when to retreat and when it is necessary to take a risk. The ultimate goal is victory, to capture the king, to say the word your opponent dreads— CHECKMATE! GIRLS’ SPORTS DEMAND LEADERS Standing, left to right: N. Flaherty, K. Warner, H. McKay, S.

For the purpose of the in- formal meeting” is to cultivate special inter- ests outside of the classroom. Under the guidance of Sister Mary Jere- miah, the club mem- bers have delved into various forms of Span- ish literature and have increased their knowl- edge of Spanish cul- ture. Jimmy Gatz shows some of his skill as a Spanish dancer. Sister Mary Jeremiah, moderator of the Spanish Club, leads the members in a reading of the Spanish newspaper La Luz . 117 FINE ARTS COMPLETE THE WHOLE PERSON Another one of Mercy’s firsts is the Literary Club which is a cultural experience. Organized and directed by Sis- ter Mary- Fides, its aim is to give its members a greater and deeper appreciation of the Fine Arts. Its activities include a com- bination of reading good books, film study and discussion. These provide the students with a greater understanding of contemporary culture, while at the same time aid in their development as typical, well- rounded Mercy-ites. Sister Mary Fides tries to bring culture into the lives of the members of the Literary Club. I 18 Patricia Fuchs and Pat Stephani sing along with the record. Walter Vail prepares his report for club members. OUR LETTERMEN - THE POWER BEHIND SPORTS Those students, boys and girls alike, who have ex- celled in one or more sports and have earned a Varsity letter, are eligible to join the Varsity Club, moderated by Sister Mary Cletus. The purpose of the Varsity Club is to assist the sports program and to promote interest in all the sports events at Mercy. Although the Club has existed for only two years, it has accomplished much. They have donated equip- ment to the athletics pro- gram and have rendered their services at various sports functions. Walter Bonczyk and Pat Lannon take tickets at basketball games. While Libby McGarvey opens sodas, Kevin Conklin sells potato chips. THROUGH BOOKi In our Library, Sister Mary Hugh, the librarian, seeks to make books our friends. Through Sister’s direction our shelves have become stacked with their paper treasure. Novels, biographies, non-fiction, magazines, and recordings all aid the Mercy student in his studies or enjoyment of reading. Critics Steve Bieniewicz and Bruce Kasold leaf through current paper- backs at the Library Book Sale. 120 Kathy Ryan shows Marie Kotasek how to use the duplicating machine.

SPORTS Of all the extra-curricular activities offered here at Mercy, sports have been the most popular. The sports program has offered activities from September until June, and a good proportion of the students this year have taken advantage of this. As always, there is one quality that has been part of our athletes, and that. is good sportsmanship. Whether they win or lose, our teams have always portrayed an outstanding spirit, and this is due only to the training they have received from our coaches. The competitive spirit and the energy spent this year, proved once again to the United Parents of Mercy, that we do appreciate the athletic field and. equipment they bought for us. Thanks to them and to the administration, the excellent education offered at Mercy has been complemented by facilities for an excellent athletic program. Both the boys and girls who have participated in sports annually realized this and appreciated the program that was offered to them. THE REIGNING MARTY SIDOR Under the competent coaching of Jack Hussnatter, Mercy's Monarchs have, for the third straight year, become the Suffolk County Catholic School Champions. Mercy boasts an overall record of 14 and 4, winning eight out of eleven league contests, and scoring an impressive six wins, one loss in non-league games. Mercy attributes much of this year's success to their fine sluff-off”, man-to-man defense which has held their opponents to some very low scores. Combining this defense with good outside shooting and a great deal of rebounding strength, Mercy’s Monarchs were able to complete another successful year.

THEY SHOWED THE SPIRIT Mercy's basketball cheerleaders, under the super- vision of Sr. Mary James, have always provided the team with that extra something needed to spur them on to victory. This year was no different. In their new uniforms the Varsity Squad gave the team all the support they deserved. During the crucial moments of many exciting games, the boys knew they could count on the cheerleaders for an extra vote of confidence. The student body, parents and sisters have also shown their whole-hearted support of the cheer- leaders by their faithful attendance. Sue Kreitsek gets a lift from Chris Kostuk.

The cross-country posted its first winning record this season with seven wins and five losses. The season was highlighted by a shut-out over La Salle and a trouncing of Greenport, the P.H.S.A.A. League Five champs. This winter, Mercy started the Indoor Track Pro- gram. Despite the fact they only had nine varsity runners, they still wound up with a league record of five wins and five losses, and an overall record of eight and twelve. The spring track team had one of its best seasons ever, as the Monarchs placed first in many events with particular strength in the middle distance races. This year, Mercy's runners made a good showing against the opposing runners at Van Cortland Park and at the Armory in New York City. In these city meets they competed against runners from four states of the Northeast. Tim Brown never did like pitching pennies. THROUGH THE WOODS Don't look now, Seton, but our man Mike Mickaligcr is one step ahead of you. Bottom row, left to right: Jon Platt, Tom Twomey, Bob Mangel, Peter Malet.

BASE Last year Mercy put together its first winning season. Hard work by the players, fine coach- ing by Mr. Jack Seery, and de- termination by both, were the ingredients used to obtain it. Though a good deal of talent was lost because of graduation, an excellent nucleus remains, and that, combined with players coming up from the Junior Var- sity, should provide Mercy with another winning season. 136 Brian McGrath will soon have this situation in hand. BALL Ken Hawkins chalks up another hit. Baseball players sometimes get that caged in ’ feeling. 137 A SWINGING Twenty-five over par isn't bad for the fourth hole , thinks Steve Krumfolz. Mercy's golf team has finished another successful season. Once again they proved that they can hold their own against worthy competitors. Under the competent supervision of Mr. Murray, the team has concluded the season with 12 wins and 6 losses. 138 Mr. Murray shows how to play the game. 'Sam Snead should see me now ', says Mark MacDonald. 139 Craig Kasold returns the ball to his opponent. I'or the third straight year Mercy's tennis team has continued strongly. In this final year of Larry Chizever's coaching, the team has shown its skills in defeating such formidable foes as St. Dominic's and St. Anthony's, and finishing third in the league. The current team is being coached by Mr. Edwin Leaverty. With the prospects of a new season in mind, let’s hope that the team moves higher in the league. Perfect form is shown by Bruce Kasold. Did I hit a bird? wonders Joe Wynne. TENNIS Watch this sneaky backhand , says Paul Verderese. MERCY BOWL It looks as if Mr. Dorman has a strike. Each Monday afternoon marks another meeting of the Bowling Team at Riverhead Lanes. Under the direction of Mr. Michael Dorman, the boys endeavor to improve their skills while they enjoy a sport in which they are particu- larly interested. The members are divided into groups of three, and through competition among these teams, the boys learn the value of perseverance and good sportsmanship. 'Skating' at the bowling alley can be fun, muses John Maloney. 142 Tom Rollc wonders how to begin. HEM OVER Mr. Dorman shows Tom Rolle the art of adding a few pins to his score without really bowling. No, Wesley, you can't call the ball back! Tommy Horn points the way to another strike. This was Mercy's second year of football competition, and the first of Varsity football. The three teams, Freshman, Junior Varsity, and Var- sity, practiced rigorously in prepara- tion for the football season. Al- though the Varsity team had a losing season, the spirit, perservance, and will to win on the part of the play- ers and the coaches showed that the team really wanted to play football. Next year Mercy should show more skill because of the experience gained through this year's competi- tion. Football encourages many opportunities for friendly discussion. TOUGH COMPETITOR I've heard of working like a dog, Coach, but this is ridiculous!” 144 «lONARCHS PROVE The members of the Varsity team: First row, left to right: E. Dull, B. White, M. Hartmann, A.

Condzella—Co-captain, C. Patrick, and S. Doroski—Captain, Kneeling: K. Dolan, P. Miloski, M. Flynn. Whether it was fifty degrees or fifteen, or whether the sun was shining or it was pouring rain, one could always find Mercy’s Football Cheerleaders at every football game. No amount of cold could lessen the heat of their enthusiasm and no amount of rain could dampen their spirit. This past year Mercy had its first Varsity foot- ball team. The amount of spirit possessed by that team was unsurpassed by any other. And no one could deny that much of that spirit can be at- tributed to the hard-working cheerleaders who suported their teams. Captain Sue Doroski seems to be praying for a victory. The Jr. Varsity Cheerleaders, standing, left to right: M. Komosinski—Co-captain, D. Scheu, C. Harrison—Cap- tain. Kneeling: D. Peebles, K. Nostrom. 148 OUR GIRLS PLAYED FOR VICTORY The sports program at Merc)' has included the girls for a few years. This year the female sports enthusiasts were able to display their athletic talents at various sports such as softball, field hockey, soccer, basketball, and tennis. Mrs. Lessard, the coach-of-all- trades , emphasized the importance of physi- cal fitness for the girls, and was eager to develop the girls’ sports program. Now what do I do? asks Kathy Warner. Up, up, and away,” sings Wendy Fitzsimmons. And here we have one of the inmates, Joanne Basini, during recreation period. 149 Kathy Nostrom and Snoopy enjoy being referees. ISO That was one ball they retrieved from the pond. 152 Mrs. Lessard keeps a watchful eye on the graceful play of the girls' basketball game. HIGHLIGHTS It is in the Highlights Section where one may truly see the friendship that exists among us. The real highlight of every school year at Mercy is friendship. The excitement of the Homecoming Game and the enthroning of the Queen concluded another Mercy first . As in the past years, Mercy's seniors stormed the Capital for an unforgettable three days. Once again Mercy was a host school for College Day. The United Parents continued their generous support to expand our school’s athletic facilities. Then there were the dances and other after-school social activities where we got together to enjoy ourselves. Either in the classroom or after school, friendship is one of the keys that opens the real Mercy to its student body. 155 Ronnie Alchermes and Pat Gregor check the dimensions of a human triangle.

UNITED PARENTS The United Parents of Mercy is an organization which was formed to aid the athletic program of the school. In addition to the monthly Booster Club, the members sponsor numerous social events, such as, the semi-formal dance for the students, the covered-dish sup- per, the spaghetti dinner, and the sum- mer card party, in order to support this program. The officers of the United Parents are: Mr. Joseph Coleman, President; Mrs. James Hagen, Secretary; and Mrs. Robert Joseph, Treasurer. Let's see now. One for me and one for you, two for me . . . says Mrs. Soyars. COLLEGE DAY George Alberti receives information from the representative of the college. On this day those who are striving to enter college are able to see representatives of various schools in which they are interested. The students are able to have their questions about different colleges an- swered and receive other vital information. This day is important because it helps the students to plan their futures. r This representative seems anxious to have Paul Verderese interested in his college. 160 HOMECOMING This year something new was added to Mercy’s long list of achievements, the homecoming game and dance. Since it was Mercy's first year of varsity foot- ball the homecoming game was a big event. The game was exciting and showed the terrific spirit of the students in support of the football program. The day was climaxed with a dance to which many students came to honor the reigning queen and her court. Sue Kreitsek laughs at the idea of Maureen Flynn playing peek-a-boo with the camera. Two members of the Queen's Court are Sue Kreitsek and Maureen Flynn. Mike Mensch pays a visit to Queen Peg Kukla. 161 George Alberti seems to be looking for a dance partner. I think Danny Tuthill has had too much Coke” says John Patrick. A typical group of Mercy students at one of the dances. SENIORS Tradition says that during his last year a Senior should visit Washington ... and so we did. For three ex- hausting, but enjoyable, days we made a pilgrimage to our nation's capital. Without a doubt the Class of 1968 was impressed by the federal buildings, various monuments, and his- toric sights. Kathy Ryan applies the power of concentration in hopes that her dinner will disappear before Diane Simons, Bob Reyer, and Dave Dominski notice. Colleen Kelly makes sure she's in the picture with Sr. Mary Eugene and Sr. Mary Thomasina VISIT WASHINGTON This is truly a candid shot of Geri Manilio, Sue Gillespie and Kathy McGee! “No one told us the Washington trip would be so exhaust- ing!” sighs the Class of 68. Mercy Students wonder at the perfect concentration and precision of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. 165 FRIENDS OF MERCY REV. EDWARD A. FUS J.C.D. 75 Greene Avenue Brooklyn, N.Y.

Arbor Road, Shoreham, N.Y. 11786 183 In freshman year it was awe; we came, we saw, we wondered at high school life. In sophomore year it was spirit; we were wise and sure; we knew we made it; we were finally a part of it. In junior year it was apprehension; we were more serious; we were maturing; we were getting ready for the big step. In senior year it was happiness—it was sorrow. Wei formed deeper friendships; we looked at ourselves; w« thought about our futures. ■ It all happened so fast. It’s really not fair. All the things we dreamed about have happened. It's time to say goodbye. We will carry our memories with us forever. Nothing can ever dim the joys we've experienced here—not even time. 1968 MONARCH PUBLICATION STAFF Editor: Steve Forgione, Assistant Editor: Peggy Kukla, Photographers: Vic Prusinowski, Dan Nclan, Jon Platt, Bruce Kasold, John Donnelly, Bill Fawcett, Craig Kasold, Staff: Carol Brunone, Liz Carr, Sue Czlatha, Bob Devery, Sue Doroski, Margie Long, Kathy McGee, Ileana Ordaz, John Patrick, Kathy Raynor, Diane Simons, Martha Tribuzio, Mike Zolkoski, Lynn Schubert, Ronnie Alchcrmcs, Diane Clausen, Tom Kukla. 184 — FRIENDSHIP Oh, the comfort—the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, Having neither to weigh thoughts, Nor measure words—but pouring them All right out —just as they are— Chaff and grain together— Certain that a faithful hand will Take and sift them— Keep what is w orth keeping— And with the breath of kindness Blow the rest away.
