SPINDLE DEDICATION The members of the class of 1985, Each of us knows a special person who really helped one see; What life is really like out there, and to decide what one wants to be. That person may be a teacher, a parent or a friend, Just someone we know, on whom we can depend. The help may have had nothing to do with a test or grade, When we just needed a friend you always came to our aid. To all you special people this book we dedicate, your help and kindness we do appreciate, Here ' s a little poem to each and everyone, Of those very special people for everything you ' ve done. As a part of the class of ' 85 Here are thanks from me to thee. To everyone who ' s helped me out. You taught me what life ' s all about. When I was down and needed a friend, A hand you were always willing to lend. When the team was losing the game, You cheered them on, just the same. My four years at Methuen High Were not easy, I can not lie. But you ' ve really helped me through, So thanks again, for just being you!!! POWDERPUFF This year ' s powderpuff game was extremely controversial. The 13-0 loss for the seniors took place o n November 9th. Several eyewitnesses have reported seeing an exchange of money taking place between refs and underclassmen at the rock prior to the game. The names can ' t be revealed due to lack of evidence. We know who you are B.I., T.M., and S.T. Holly and Laural II IT! m 4 HOMECOMING The Homecoming Game was played on October 27, 1 984, against Wilmington. The Rangers came out on top by a score of 21-9. Before the kickoff, the three finalist for Homecoming Queen: Lynn Bodenrader, Melissa Camacho, and Debbie Siggens were escorted onto the field by senior class president, John Bres- nahan; vice-president, Normand Vermette; secretary, Eric Boes; and treasurer, Tim Waites. The lucky winner Lynne Bodenrader was crowned by last year ' s Homecoming Queen Ellen Endyke.

We hope that he will have con- tinued success in his future years here at Methuen. GOOD LUCK MR. JARVIS! 11 HUBBUB THANKSGIVING DAY RALLY The Thanksgiving Day Game was all Methuen had left for a ticket to the Superbowl. You could feel the spirit in the air when we had our first night rally. The cold temperature didn ' t stop Methuen fans from rooting on our team. AN ORDINARY DAY AT M.H.S 13 ty jmsfj ?% ..WJ3 HALF TIME CLASS 14 mfiJjr.4 Ck iV7 ' f Hre-i J .J The Methuen Ranger Marching Band marched its way not only through the half-time shows for the football games, and, of course our Superbowl Game, but, also, won 14 trophies in marching band competitions. The trophies included best drum major, colorguard, drumline, and music with a placement of first, second, and third overall. These efforts couldn ' t have been completed without the help and support we received from our new band director Mr. Richard Bowers. At this time, the senior members of the band would like to thank Mr. Bowers for a wonderful season and good luck in the future.

Many students offered to take time out of their classes for the cause, and everything ran smoothly with the help of many seniors. The volunteers spent their time typing, taking temperatures, carrying pints of blood, or just talking to students while it was their turn to give blood. 17 . 4 A DRIVING LESSON Methuen High Seniors were given a demonstration on drunk driving on May 13, sponsored by the Methuen Police Dept. The three volunteers were Debra Battaglia, Bill Lambert, and Bill Ganley. When they got behind the wheel of the car, everyone moved away — No one wants to be in the way of a drunk driver. Please, be smart, life is short — don ' t drink and drive. S.H. ■H (2 J he claM Of 4385 would it ce to thwnlc the mllowfina fe .

There was quite a selection of egs on display. We also had special guest leg appearances by Mr. Nick and Mr. Jarvis. Stormin ' Normand added some controversy when he attempted to bribe Judge Hiller by taking off his . . . shirt! The crowd went wild when Gerry Blais ' legs were chosen as the hottest legs around. And the chant for him to flex had soon begun. All in all it was great fun!!!

Seniors heading this group into the season were Co-Captains Dawn Salvo and Carrie Callahan, along with Laura Grelle, and Rosemary Duerr. Exceptional players who made the All Star team were Dawn Salvo and Lisa Mignault. 78 1 CROSS COUNTRY mmm a | 1 i The boys cross country team led by captain John Kelley and seniors Mark Sullivan, John Wajda, and Lou Santosuosso ended with a 5-4 record, they also had three team members on the All-Star team: Tim Difalco, Dave Moynihan and Dave Flanigan.

They didn ' t know just how good they would be but Coach Klimas taught them that hard work and dedication would pay off and put them on the road to success. The Rangers were off to their best season ever winning their first 9 games. Soon the student body and the entire town started finding their way to the stadium to cheer on a simply super team. Then everything was put on the line as Methuen met rival, defending champs Dracut at the annual Thanksgiving Day Game. i SL S3 84 m 85 MVC SHOWDOWN vmja M t _ v3KPw 6uB mt zNu ftfc v ' S ££ i iftC] [m r ' ■ i BP Q  i L. . 3 .- -r ' J jF P, • ■- rv M. M J «■• • «_ .. - ' I It came down to this game, the biggest and most imp ortant in the area ever! The winning team would reign as MVC Champions and gain a berth to the superbowl. The gates opened at 7:30am. and the stadium was filled by 8:00 there was a record crowd on hand, in all 10,000 people jammed the stands to watch one of the most exciting match ups in many many years. The Rangers were the first to strike as they went up 7-0 then 14-0 then 20-0 as it was apparent that their dream would finally be realized. The final score was 20-7. The celebrations began and so did preparations for the Superbowl. 86 SUPERBOWL w December 1 . . . Superbowl Saturday was here. On the long ride to Sullivan Stadium tension mounted as this club knew that Plymouth Carver was the final test. It seems like the entire town went to watch as the Rangers took part in their first Superbowl challenge in the history of Methuen High. The First half inspired much hope as the team was up 14-12. The second half was not as promising as the Rangers found theirselves in an unfortunate position. The final score of the game was 14-18 in favor of Plymouth. Despite the final outcome of this years team was by far the finest ever and certainly one to be proud of. The example set by this years senior will be hard to follow due to the fine efforts of Chris Flanagan, Jay Tardugno, Mark Jozokos, Normand Vermette, Roger Hardy, Brian Smith, Bob Scarelli, Mike Collizzi, Jeff Baker, Tom Donovan, Dave Ramirez, Sean Caudet, Chris DiBenedetto, Sean O ' Neil, and Tim Waites. 87 WRESTLING The wrestling team came up with a surprising season this year as they missed winning their second league championship by one loss to Chelmsford.

I m BOY ' S BASKETBALL The boys basketball team had a fine season this year, their final record was 9-1 1 . The team just missed qualifying for the state tourney by one game.

Other seniors were John Wajda, Mike McGreevy, Chris Flanagan, and Sean O ' Neil. 89 GIRL ' S BASKETBALL The girl ' s basketball team, coached by Mimi Stott, had an excellent season with an undefeated record of 18-0. This giving them the MVC League Championship and a spot in the State Tournament in which they made it to the semi-finals.

Among the greatest: the feelings of being exceptional, respected, and acknowledged. Every year the actors must unite to make the show a success. This year ' s play, UP THE DOWN STAIRCASE, challenged a comprehensive cast to work in unity — it is this experience that makes Ma ' s plays so special and heartwarming. It is a time when the cliques dissolve and only togetherness remains. It is, the Senior Class Play, an actual reflection of Ma Hovanasian ' s loving and caring nature.

The graduates of Methuen High School left that second day of June nineteenhundred and eighty-five with a Touch of Class. S.H. 153 THE WINGS OF SUCCESS It ' s 7:30 a.m. The day has just begun. Let ' s imagine that a graceful bird flies above us as we sit in Methuen High School ' s auditorium tor the last time. As the bird hovers over us he circles and watches below . . . from his point of view he can see the divisions of the class of nineteen hundred and eighty-five. As I look out into the audience I can visualize what he must see. And if all of you look to your right, to your left, and in front and behind, you should be able to see the difference as well. In our audience this morning, people who have similar interests are sitting together. This is what the bird would see: Well, a good question would be: Who has been the most successful in our class? Who has gotten the most from his four years here at Methuen High? Are the successful people the ones who got all A ' s, or the ones who threw the football the farthest? The person who went to the most parties? Does success belong to the in-crowd or does it rest with the out-crowd? The answer is simple: if you have made at least one friend here at Methuen High School — you, then are a success, because the only thing that endures the ravages of time is the bond between one person and another. NO monument is a better tribute to man ' s existence than the fond memories of a friend. Who can doubt the value of some friend to laugh with and share good times? Who cannot appreciate the support of another shoulder to lean on when times have been bad? We all have a special magic within us and the more we share this magic with others, the more we will be able to share one another ' s dreams. And, yes, tomorrow is yours if you dare to dream, for remember that man ' s source of strength is not brain nor brawn, but his heart, which is filled with the will and determination to live and fulfill one ' s goals. We will leave here today and many of us will never see our friends again. We will have the happy memories of these days to reflect upon ... As we go through life we must let the bad times fade away and let the good times linger — the friendships that we make shall last all our lives, but the memories of our friendships shall last as all as the stars shall shine. In a hundred years we ' ll all be dead, and people not unlike yourselves will be sitting in the very seats you ' re now occupying. So the same bird will be flying over the class of Two Thousand and Eighty-five. And, he ' ll give them all the same advice he ' s giving you today: whatever you seek for your future, whatever you hope for, aim high . . . Your dreams are the wings of your spirit, and as long as you dream, you can fly ... Jeff Piazza Class Day Orator Class of 1985 154 SELF-RELIANCE Honored guests, parents, friends, and fellow graduates: We are gathered here for the last time as the Class of 1985. We cannot help having feelings of pride, accomplishment, hope and maybe sadness, as we realize that we are leaving behind what has been our world for four years, and beginning the next phase of our lives. We have been very fortunate to have been students at Methuen High School. We ' ve had different opportunities to learn, we ' ve had many excellent teachers, and we ' ve made good friends. Everything we have experienced here has influenced us and left its meaning. All of us, as graduates of Methuen High School, share a common background; we have spent the most important, growing-up stage of our lives together. No matter what the future brings, we will always carry the memories of our sports ' victories, our favorite teachers, and especially of today, our Graduation Day. Before I leave you, I wish to urge you, fellow graduates, to remember to keep your individuality as you leave high school and enter college or the work field, you may find that for the first time you must make decisions without the help of family or friends. Do not be affraid to be different or try something new. If you take the risk, you will never have to look back on your life with regret. Be optimistic, and don ' t be afraid to aim high. If you have been influenced to a great extent by friends or parents during your high school years, now is the time to rely upon yourself. This is an exciting time in our lives. Many of us will be making that first break away from our families and starting a new life on our own. There may be confusion, unhappiness, and mistakes the first year, but remember to have faith in yourself and you will not fail. I leave with you the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, who wrote in his essay Self-Reliance : What I must do is all that concerns me, not what people think . . . Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. I wish you all, the Class of 1985, the greatest success and happiness as I bid you, farewell, Thank you, Cherie Anne Parkhurst Valedictorian, Class of 1985 l s THE FIGHTING OF THE UNKNOWN Faculty, administration, friends, relatives, guests, and fellow classmates welcome to the graduation of the Class of 1985. We face today with mixed feelings. Sadness, happiness, fear and apprehension are each desperately grasping and eating away at our minds and hearts. It is difficult to believe that four years of high school have gone by, and we face the uncertain future with apprehension. For four years we have been very secure, but now we are on our own and forced to make our own major decisions about our lives. I am not saying that during our high school years our minds have been stagnant. We have already made some tough, soul-searching choices, such as going to college, joining the military, or entering the working world. But now, however, without the aid of family and teachers, we must solve even tougher problems. Hopefully, though, the various people whom we have met have taught us how to consider, with independent and open minds, the options now are open to us. Security was fun while it lasted, but now we must proceed, not with fear, but with the knowledge and wisdom we have already gained. Today, we have basically tried to push the future into the back of our minds, for why have something so dreadful ruin our day of happiness? However, we can ' t hide from stark reality forever. To bring some measure of comfort, I leave you with these inspiring words of Channing Pollack: None of us know what is ahead . . . The important thing is to use today wisely and well, and face tomorrow eagerly and cheerfully with the certainty that we should be equal to what it brings. Thank you, Joseph Gregg Salutatorian, Class of 1985 156 GRADUATION — A NEW BEGINNING Members of the faculty, administration, parents, friends and fellow classmates: Today, June 2, 1985, we all start a new life — our own. Up to this point we have not really been in control of our lives. During the past 17 or 18 years we have been guided through life by our parents, families, teachers and friends. Today when we come up to this platform and accept the white scroll, it will become our turn to run the race; the baton is being put into our hands. Whether we make it to the finish line with many laurels atop our heads or we stumble and fall by the wayside, will be our own making. The future will hold many good times and memorable events for all of us, but we are all sure to encounter some bad times, when the road of life becomes rocky. We have been well prepared to face the future. During the past four years, the teachers at Methuen High have done their best to educate us and prepare us for what lies ahead. Our peers have shaped our lives and have contributed to our learning experience. We have also gained much knowledge from our families. This knowledge will be our most valuable asset, and we will use it for the rest of our lives. We must use the knowledge we have acquired to light our paths in the coming years. When we encounter hard times, we must use this knowledge to discern between right and wrong and to lead us to solutions to our problems. So my fellow classmates, let us enter into our new lives with courage and determination, realizing that we now rule our own destinies. Let us put forth the knowledge we have acquired to guide our lives and to pursue our dreams. I wish you all the best. Thank you, David Ouellette Honor Essayist Class of 1985 157 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1985 By Tom Fyrer Lynne Habib It all started in September of 1981 under the reign of our old Principal, Mr. Doloff. When we walked into the building of orange and blue, we felt that we needed a compass to locate the north and south houses. When we received our schedules during homeroom, the question which tracked through our mind was, which way do we go? We then pulled out our compasses, and we were all set. Our sports teams have been outstanding since our freshman year. The girls freshman basketball team went undefeated; leading the way were: Laural Perusse, Kathy Donnelly, Dawn Salvo and Holly Homsey. The football team also went unde- feated with memorable performances by Mike Colizzi, Mark Jozokos, Jay Tardugno, Jeff Baker and Dave Rameriz. The political aspect of the Freshman Class was the election of the officers. The people who were chosen to represent the freshmen were Sue Perry, Elizabeth Crabtree, Michelle DeMonico and Lisa Talbot. With one year under our belt and three to go, we were becoming more familiar with the school and its teachers. Mr. Francis was starting to get to know us, especially Mark Zraket, Joe Allain, Ricky Tardiff and Paul Donahue. Miss Cunningham was beginning to become well acquainted with Colleen Keough, Kathy Brien, Colleen Welch and Lynne Fortin. In boys ' sports, the wrestling team had an impressive season with sophomores Eric Boes and Mark Jozokos qualifying for States. Jeff Baker, John Kelley and Bob Scarelli were members of the spring track team which finished with a record of 6-1 . In girls ' sports, the swim team splashed to a 4-0-5 record with sophomore members Kim Kuzmitski, Stephanie Hoseter- man, Susan Ventre, Jennifer Golec and Martha Kelley. Under the direction of Mr. Isadore, the band travelled to Florida and received outstanding ratings in competition with bands from the Midwest and South. The sophomore members were Lou Farrell, Jill Black, Bruce Whipple, and Shellie Fone. The Sophomore Class officers were Kathy Kowal, president, Sue Perry, vice president, Lisa Talbot, secretary, and Paul Martineau, treasurer. Junior year started off with a bang, and we mean a bang. Steve Berube and his souped up 71 Chevelle travelling 100 m.p.h. decided to test how fast he could stop and applied his brakes ten feet in front of a blinking light. Unfortunately, the blinking light did not get out of the way. Having viewed the sports scene, we found our soccer team finished its season with a record of 15-3. Contributing to the victories were Tom Fyrer, John Bresnahan, Kevin Bresnahan, Kevin Bretton and Mel Weagle. The wrestling team recorded its finest season in school history with an undefeated dual season at 14-0. Tim Waites, Doug Boes, Eric Boes, Mike Colizzi and Mark Jozokos all performed beyond expectations. The varsity softball team captured the M.V.C. championship and qualified for the States. Outstanding performances were given by Kathv Donnelly, Paula DeCesare, Rosemary Duerr, Diana Shaheen, Debbie Siggens and Diane Campochiaro. The Junior Prom was coordinated by the class officers, Robin Mello, president, Normand Vermette, vice-president, Tim Waites, treasurer, and Eric Boes, secretary. At the end of the junior year we elected the class officers, John Bresnahan, president, Normand Vermette, vice- president, Tim Waites, treasurer, and Eric Boes, secretary. The beginning of our senior year marked a change in administration. Mr. Doloff became assistant to the superintendent, and we were welcomed by our new principal, Mr. Jarvis. Along with Mr. Jarvis came many changes. The so-called senior privileges were no longer in existence. We were the first class in the history of Methuen High School not to have Senior privileges. Mr. Jarvis has also installed fences around the outer area of the school so that no one will escape. The girls basketball team had a superb season by going undefeated, winning the M.V. C. and making it to the semi- finals in the state tournament. They were led by captains Laural Perusse and Kathy Donnelly. To phsyche the school for the Thanksgiving Day fo otball game, there was the first pep rally in twenty years. For the first time in the history of Methuen High, the football team gave Methuen High its first superbown berth; backed by the captains Mark Jozokos, Jay Tardugno, Jeff Baker, Tom Donovan and Mike Colizzi. The second annual Hotlegs Contest starred Gerry Blais, Mr. Nicholson, Jim Hamaoui and our beloved principal, Mr. Jarvis. This also was the first year in many years to have a school newspaper and a dedicated staff. Senior members include Amy Robillard, Cathy Wnek, Lee Ann Gearin and Michelle Davignon. On May 3rd, 1980 Seniors decided to visit Salisbury Beach. Many teachers were disturbed over this excessive absentee- ism which resulted in many tests. Senior year was closing out, and it was time for the class play. Star performers were Jeff Piazza, Sue Zraket, Cherie Parkhurst, Debbie Diorio and the unforgettable Paul Martineau. Although we are still being referred to as spoiled, pampered and mollycoddled children, the time has come for the class of 85 to bid farewell to Methuen High School. 158 PROPHECY OF CLASS OF 1985 By Eric Boes and Holly Homsey The year is 2010 and the event is the 25th reunion of the graduating class of 1985.
