He has played a very important role in our lives as a class, and as individuals. His time, dedication, and help will always be remembered and treasured by all. During our senior year, Dave constantly pushed us toward success. He was determined to make our class the best to pass through Millbury High. He has left a lasting impression on many of our lives. The seniors of 79 leave Millbury High with CLASS, and we owe it all to Mr. Wilbur. We wish him all of the success and happiness at his new teaching position in North Brookfield; he truly deserves it. Good luck Dave, and thank you for giving so much to the Class of 1979. We would like to extend our deepest appreciation to Mr. Martin Roach for his 41 years of service and dedication to the Millbury School System. His patience, understanding, and good-natured advice will never be forgotten. Mr. Roach has done so much for the school and for the students, yet, he asks for so little in retumn. The memories of his friendship will be treasured forever. Mr. Roach has been an important part of our four years at Millbury High. He has left an indelible mark on many of our lives, we thank him for this. Mr. Martin Roach is a highly admired man and truly a person worth knowing. We wish him all of the happiness in the world; he deserves this and more. Millbury High will never be the same without Mr. Roach in its halls, but his conscientiousness will always be remembered. Thank you Mr. Roach, for being our friend.

The class of “79” exemplified all the traits any advisor could ask for. The class involvement, dedication, sacrifice, leadership, and achievement were truly outstanding. So many of you worked very hard to make all the senior activities a success, and that was one reason that all your activities were fantastic. The direction of the class officers, homeroom captains, and other individuals made my job so much easier. To these people I heartily thank you. You overcame many obstacles and worked out every detail as I hoped you would — with “CLASS”. Personally Id like to thank each of you who countlessly gave of your time. I have become an admirer, and hopefully a friend of many of you. I will never forget each of you, especially those who really cared. I truly hope you keep in touch with me as you enter a new stage in your lives. I would also like to thank you for being so kind to me through your dedication of the yearbook and the nice chair. I wish you all the best in the future and please remember that if any one of you need me, Ill always be willing to help to the best of my ability. Thank you for the great memories!!! Grad E Wilbur David E. Wilbur I wish to thank and congratulate for a job well done all the seniors and underclassmen who contributed their time drafting layouts, writing copy, typing, taking photographs, soliciting advertisements, cropping pictures, and completing a the other various tasks needed to complete this yearbook. The Class of 79 produced an industrious and conscientious group of editors who were extremely dedicated and worked many hours to create a memorable yearbook. This group of editors mirrors the outstanding accomplishments and spirit efiie Class of’79. I wish the members of the Class of 79 much continued success in your futures and hope you will enjoy recalling the memories you made by reading and rereading this yearbook. Paul P.

The Home Economics Club set out to prove that not only does M.H.S. build superior academic minds, but superior preparers of cuisine as well. Once they “got cooking’, they were astounded at their formerly undiscovered talent and proficiency in this fine art. However, their own good nature and willingness to provide assistance to others caused their demise. On one occasion, they decided to sample others’ wares in order to evaluate the goods and offer possible suggestions as to improvement thereof. The ingrates who produced these concoctions informed the valiant members of this honorably-intentioned club that they did not appreciate the subjection of their foodstuffs to alien tastebuds. Thus, the club disbanded, vowing to save their skills and experience for later situations in which they would be more appropriately appreciated. Who do those people who think Row 1 (Lto R): D.

Under Dave Wilbur’s guidance, these four successfully provided the leadership for our super senior year and helped to bring the treasury from almost nothing to just enough to pay for the high cost of senior year expenses.

Junior is the year when class activities begin to increase, and this year’s class was no exception. Advised by Mr. Dennis Leonard, their fundraisers included a cake sale, the sale of cloth calendars and two-year planners. The class also ran the Coke and candy concessions at the High School gym during the basketball season. The Juniors won the Winter Carnival Competition, and were responsible for sponsoring the record hop at the high school in March. The most prestigious event of the junior year, the prom, was held on May 18 at the Sheraton Yankee Drummer, and was a great success. anita. nee { Pi % a et tn gor CS The Class of ’81 Officers included: Lorraine Gauthier, President; Miriam Nash, Vice-President; Patricia Dunn, Treasurer; and Maggie Phillips, Secretary. Advised by Mr. Gary Robinson, the sophomore class sponsored many fund-raisers this year. These events included: a car wash, bake sale, Christmas Dinner, Night on the Town Raffles, another “Almost Anything Goes”, and a dance. Sophomore year is the year when the class orders its rings. The sophomores voted to allow an individual choice of stone colors. Lorraine Gauthier, Pat Dunn, Maggie Phillips, Miriam Nash. The Class of 82’ was advised by Mr. Robert Evers, and they soon learned that fund-raisers are necessary if a class wishes to have a good senior year. The freshman have organized a car wash and a dance; and they have been as active as past freshman classes. They are off to a good start and we wish them the best of luck for the future.

POTPOURRI STATE STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY REPRESENTATIVE Todd Mogren was elected as our Representative to the State House for Student Government Day during the junior year. Todd traveled to several workshops on government before the day. On April 7, 1978, he represented Millbury in the State Senate, taking the place of Senator Foley for the day. He participated in a mock Senate meeting and took part in debating several bills. Todd enjoyed his day of power, and he has stated that it has increased his desire to run for President (or maybe for God) someday in the future. MEDIEVAL BANQUET On Friday, December 22, Mrs. Dias’ and Mr. Wadsworth’s senior English classes prepared and ate a medieval meal. The menu consisted of cream of cucumber soup, roast beef in sauce Robert, and fried herb puffs. Also, venison and pheasant stew were supplied by Brian Wilczynski. To go along with medieval ways (which were being studied in class), all food was served and eaten with the fingers. All the foods were served by some of Mr. Wadsworth’s juniors (also known as slaves). PRESIDENTIAL CLASSROOM Every year for the past four years, Millbury High has sent four seniors to study for a week in Washington, D.C. in the Presidential Classroom Program. The students take tours of the historic sites of our nation’s capital and participate in seminars dealing with various aspects of American Government. Some of the speakers this year included Senator Muskie of Maine, Chris Wallace of NBC News, and General Bernard Rogers, Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army. In addition, the students also gain the unique experience of mingling with people from all over the United States and from all cultural backgrounds. The seniors privileged to go this year were Karen Bernier, John Greene, Bob Hebert, and Linda Sauer. POTPOURRI NATIONAL MERIT FINALIST For the first time, Millbury High finally had a finalist in the prestigious National Merit Scholarship Competition. John Greene achieved this honor by his high scores on the PSAT NMSOQT given in October of the junior year. Although he did not receive a scholarship, he did receive a Certificate of Merit for this high academic honor on Academic Awards Night from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. Only one-half of one percent of the students taking the PSAT achieve the Finalist ranking. ZOO CREW A new group appeared on the scene at basketball games this past season. Calling themselves the “Zoo Crew”, they rocked the gym with deafening yells and off-color cheers throughout the season. Although some people thought them overly rowdy, the Crew really did help to boost school spirit and the morale of the basketball team. Zoo Crew members could be identified by their bright red shirts, which had nicknames such as “Poo Bear,” “Toodie,” and “Father B” on the back. HORACE MANN SOCIETY The Class of 1979 clearly demonstrated its academic superiority by having eight of its members selected for the Horace Mann Society. This is Millbury High’s highest academic honor, and is only given to those students who have maintained an average of 90 or above for two years. The seniors in Horace Mann are Raymond Bricault, Judy Dudley, John Greene, Robert Hebert, Thomas Lowe, Patricia Markey, Paul Pelletier, and Linda Sauer. Juniors who have gained membership are Lynn Ethier, Martha Norton, and Joyce Ostrowski. 37 SPECIAL EVENTS Junior Prom Halloween Pep Rally Fruit Sale Me AtS H Fashion Show Winter Carnival Project Fair Student Government Day N.H.S.

The night passed quickly as pictures were taken and dinner was served and eaten. As the Junior girls paraded around the floor, the court and queen were chosen. Pam Carrigan was chosen queen, while Karen Belliveau, Karen Bernier, Cheryl McDermott, Monica Seaver, Pam Weaver and Donna Wiberg were chosen for the court. Everyone enjoyed dancing to the theme song “How Deep Is Your Love’, played by the band “Flight’. The night was perfect. . . well, almost perfect. As everyone proceeded to the parking lot after the prom, Todd Mogren realized he had a serious problem. He couldn't find his car. As the lot emptied, Todd accepted the fact that his car had been stolen. 40 How deep is yourlove?

HALLOWEEN On October 31, 1978, strange things occured at Millbury High School. The seniors paraded through the halls in their crazy and bizarre costumes while they collected two hundred dollars in donations. Todd Mogren, Bob Hebert, Bill Lucey, Kevin Higginbottom, Dan Gonyea, Alan Rudge and Ken Mardirosian, all posing as members of the Mafia, could be heard “shooting up” the halls. Other creatures inhabiting the dark passages included scarecrows, gypsies, a conehead, clowns, and monsters. The crazy costumes drew much laughter and applause, but the funniest occurence was P.J. Salois, dressed as a cheerleader, staging cheers in the cafeteria and school lobby. At the close of the day, the seniors assembled to have a class picture taken. Much spirit was shown by the class. This was the first time anything like this had occured at M.H.S. The entire school came alive on October 31, 1978, and it will be a day that no one will ever forget. Moret = Cad acer Who did it?

It was the largest play ever to be staged at Millbury High, as its cast and stage crew numbered nearly seventy people. These students, in addition to putting in long hours of rehearsal and preparation, also learned about the fun and joy involved in presenting a play. Seniors in the play included: Neal White (Hawkeye), John Greene (Frank Burns), Todd Mogren (Radar), Mark Cormier (Duke), Karen Bernier (Bridget), Alan Marquis (Boone), and Chris Dawson (Devine). In addition, Ken Mardirosian made a special, unforgettable guest appearance in the role of the crazy Corporal Klinger. Many others seniors were active backstage in preparing the sets and scenery. M A S H was co-directed under the talented supervision of Mr. Roger Desrosiers and Mr. Frank Morrill. Mrs. Sylvia Stepien, Mrs. Frances Dupont, and Mrs. Claudette Desrosiers also provided invaluable assistance. Besides entertainment, M A S H also helped to further rebuild school spirit and pride. 46 SPRING KALEIDOSCOPE The annual Fashion Show put on by the Advanced and Intermediate Clothing classes at Millbury High was held on May 9, 1979 at seven thirty in the evening. Debby Pacheco, speaker for the evening, introduced and described each garment modeled by each girl. The fashions included gowns, dresses, slacks, skirts, blazers, down vests, � “Up Front” and makeup was swimsuits, and short sets. Accessories were supplied by supplied by St. Cyrs. At the end of the fashion show, Laurie Bratiotis presented the Clothing teachers: Mrs. Stepien, Mrs. Harrington, and Mrs. Perry, with a bouquet of roses. EB om , :S ‘ } J FEBRUARY 1979 CARNIVAL CRIER SPECIAL EDITION CLASSES CRASH IN CRAZY CLASH SENIORS BURIED AT BOTTOM OF PILE As the dust cleared in the First Annual Winter Carnival competition, the Junior Class had taken first place. Led by class advisor, Mr. Leonard, the Juniors staged a tremendous rally on the last day to edge out the other three classes. After trailing most of the way, the Juniors combined victories in the Almost Anything ‘Goes and the skits with a second place finish in the murals to come out on top with 300 total points. The young and spi- rited Freshmen Class took a surprising second place under the lead- ership of the somewhat boisterous Mr. Evers. He stated, “It was our youthful spirit and fight that carried us to such an outstanding record” Taking third place, a mere 10 points behind the Freshmen, were the Sophomores. Under the guidance of Mr. Robin- son, they came on strong but faltered in the end (a disappointing 4th in the skits). Trailing the pack 35 points behind the Ju- niors were the igomini- ous seniors. Dave Wil- bur, senior advisor tried desperately to rally his troops but it was all in vain. SENIORS SLUMP Those super Seniors were the dissappoint- ment of the Winter Car- nival as they took a dis- mal fourth place, 35 points behind the win- ner. Ironically, the Se- niors led most of the week but “choked” on the final day and were overtaken by the other three classes. Finishing last in the murals and third in the skits didn’t help their cause. Class advisor Dave Wilbur was overheard to say, “Our skit got the shaft! I thought I saw Evers slipping fat envelopes to the three judges!”’. ALMOST ANYTHING. WENT AT A.A.G. The Almost Anything Goes contest which has often been used as a successful fundraiser in the past was added to the Winter Carnival, and a point scale of 50 CARNIVAL TERMED A GREAT SUCCESS The week of Febm- ary 12-17 was the week that revived school spirit at Millbury High, for it was the first time in the history that a Winter Carnival had been held. The en- thusiasm generated throughout the week was incredible. Mrs. Frances Dupont said, “Never have I seen the school so alive! The re- sponse has been unbe- lievable!!’”’. for first place descend- ing to 20 for fourth place was used. The Juniors and F reshman tied for first in the zany contest.

The events consisted of paper airplane throw- ing, bubble gum blow- ing, human pyramids, hula hoop, house of cards, balloon blowing and the limbo. The mighty senior class won this event and earned 50 points. The LOCAL NEWS sophomores took sec- ond, the juniors third, and the freshman class came in last. One of the most excit- ing events was the human pyramids. The seniors, led by the zoo crew captured the title. Overall, Toodie Wilczynski won two events. He captured the balloon blowing and the paper airplane toss. Mark Cormier won the limbo with an amazing walk of 2’4”. SOPHS TAKE MURALS The mural contest was a way for the great artistic talent here at Millbury High to show off. The catwalk win- dows were selected as the perfect spot to dis- play the murals, which had to relate to the Win- ter Carnival theme of “My Special Valen- tine’. Each class was al- loted two to three panes of glass with which to work. The very talented Sophomores were vic- torious, gaining 75 vital points for the over-all Winter Carnival Com- petition. The Juniors were a close second, eaming 60 points. The Seniors’ mediocre ef- forts gained only 30 points, finishing behind the Freshmen who had 45 points. The judging of the murals was based upon both inside and outside appearance, color coor- dination, detail, origi- nality, neatness, and pertinence to the Win- ter Carnival theme. The murals were judged on a scale of 0 to 10. The balloting was very close with the Junior class and Sophomore class separated by only 5 points. The quality and appearance of all four murals was well above average and all of the classes should’ be praised for their tal- ented efforts. SIN ORE EVENT Limbo “House oF Card a (54 cards) .

The Sophomore class had an amazing 92.65 percent of students wearing the maroon and white. The Freshmen placed a close second iwth 90.07 percent. Seniors achieved a dismal and disappointing third place with only 78.76 percent in school colors. The Junior class trailed the pack with only 65.44 percent. Overall, 82.59 percent of the student body was clad in our school colors. This was a very impressive out- come for an event which some students said would be lucky to draw even 50 percent. This event more than any other showed the tremendous boost which the Winter Car- nival has given to school spirit. The whole school should be com- mended for a job well done. FINI SH.

These skits were crucial, as the | winner received 75 | points. The judging of each skit was based on the following factors: | writing, acting, technique, raw courage, and pertinence to the | Winter Carnival theme | of “My Special Valen- A.A.G. This proved to be a very exciting, entertaining, | and enjoyable event for all those who attended on Friday night. The _ games included an obs- ) tacle course, a Go Back _to Bed event (in which | the contestants live jan entire day at ) hyperspeed), and a Blind Bike Race. The | Senior team of Diana | Boire, Moe St@y, Todd | Mogren, and _ Stan | “Toodie’’ Wilezynski ) were in the race for the | victory all the way but | faltered at the end.

BRING FITS tine. The juniors again made a strong showing easily defeating the other three classes de- spite the heavy compet- ition. Their skit about an insane asylum on Valentine’s Day was truly outstanding. Star- ring in the skit were Mark Chabot, Janet Sherman, and the un- forgettable Jane Jagielski. The Freshman Class’ superbly acted skit placed second with 60 points. It starred Donna Gover and Kathy Sylvia in a perfect example of type casting. The Senior Class ef- fort finished third, gain- ing 45 points. The skit brought down the house with its “high” school humor but failed to im- press the judges. Chris “Flounder” Dawson provided a memorable moment when he slid totally off the stage, and landed on his belly on the concrete! The Sophomore Class, which received 30 points featured a skit starring Tom Tribandis and Bob Hamilton as the hilarious body- guards for Jackie Onas- sis. sn fErx € § he ies Coe f € Gs sy €% © ¢ ROCK N ROLL DANCES On Wednesday and Saturday nights, dances wer e held as part of the festivities of the winter carnival. Wednesday saw a 1950's “sock hop” with DJ Dr. John. This proved to be one of the best dances ever held at Millbury High. The highlight of the evening was a dance contest with nearly every per- son in the gym par- ticipating. Mr. Bill Rosen was quoted as saying “I can’t believe my eyes, everyone is ac- tually doing the dances I boogied to when I was in high school.” Saturday night brought an event un- familiar to most stu- dents, a Sadie Hawkins dance. For once the girls asked the boys for dates. The night ended with the awarding of the Winter Carnival win- ners, the junior class. p.4 OPINION Michael Baldwin Bruce, Editor EDITORIALS A BOOST IN SPIRIT The school spirit developed during the Winter Carnival has been truly amazing. For the first time, it seems that the students are proud to say that they attend Millbury High and that they are a member of a particular class. Although Senior classes have traditionally been high spirited, the Carnival showed the underclassmen developing their own sense of unity and pride. The corridors have been much more spirited, lively, and exciting over the past week. The Carnvial has definitely proven to be a major step in the renovation of Millbury High’s spirit, which is as badly needed as the phys- ical renovations. We are greatly in favor of the Win- ter Carnival, and we hope that future Carnivals are as successful as this year’s experiment proved to be. NEW RULES NEEDED The problems of cheating did arise during the week’s events. Accusations flew in the tug o’war contest and the volleyball matches. In the future, we hope that a clearer set of rules for each of the contests will be established and that an impartial board of faculty judges will be created to settle any disputes. A related problem deals with the class advisors. They became overly involved with many contests, and their emotional appeals and exhibitionism may have altered the judgements of the referees. We would suggest that next year class advisors not be allowed to badger the referees and be restricted from the gym floor. Although their spirit is com- mendable, Their interference is unwelcome, un- fair, and a general nuisance. ACADEMICS HURT? Millbury High’s faculty deserves a round of applause for its cooperation and enthusiasm during the Winter Carnival. The majority loved the idea and eagerly supported it. To the critics who felt that it would interfere with academics, we respond by noting that developing character, sportsman- ship, and spirit are also important parts of an edu- cation. Overall, the obvious benefits of the past week have far outweighed any minor lapses in ac- ademics. 52 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: I think that it would be of greater advantage to the students to think of the academic “well- being’’ of the school rather than spend an en- tire week in such a frivolous undertaking. I believe that a school should function mainly for the academic needs of the student, not his social needs. Guess Who? To the Editor: We wish to inform you that we take offense at the Juniors’ having taken the liberty of ste- aling condiments of the school lunch to use in their stupid skit. ““My Crazy Valentine.” First of all, they are depriv- ing needy students of their established daily requirements of meat by-products and sec- ondly, our own private wine stash was suspi- ciously depleted during this little caper. The Cafeteria Ladies To the Editor: As a member of MHS’ Senior Citizens’ Com- mitte, I would like to suggest that fair con- tests be established for those of us whose bodies are too weak and decrepit to engage in more strenuous ac- tivities. Such events would included wheel- chair races, the 100-yard crawl, rocking chair marathons, and that all- time favorite — Pin the Rap on the Student. This would make us old folks a lot happier and less inclined to grumble over the Winter Carni- val. Fred Wadsworth yous, vw ARTS ENTERTAINMENT |. SKIT REVIEW MHS’ Winter Carni- val skits proved to be very unique. The Se- niors’ ““My Desperate Heart” involved a gang of hockey players who after having imbibed excessively pick up three creatures whom I believe were meant to have resembled “foxy ladies.” Rather grotes- que, at best — as was the skit. The Sophomores chose a political theme. “Jackie O” was set ata bash with such per- sonalities as Jackie O (Diane Stowe), Jerry Ford (Bob Anthony), Betty Ford (Deb Dufault), and two ar- dent slapstick body- guards (Tom Tribandis and Bob Hamilton) who jump an old lady (Sha- ron Chasse) at the punch bowl. Making a surprise appearance was the infamous “Un- known Flasher” (Gregg Woodward). This skit was definitely under- rated. “Love is A Many Splendored Thing,” by the Freshmen was an all-out war between Erin (Donna Gover) and a character well played by Kathy Sylvia for a date to the big dance. The winners were the Juniors, with a farce en- titled “My Crazy Valen- tine” in which a band of loonies dissect a nurse. They continue by ex- tracting intestines (hot dogs), a liver (raw meat), and other de- licacies in their Valen- tine’s Day search for the “heart”. Although an original idea, I found it to be overly graphic and most distasteful. MUSING ON MURALS Art is one of our cul- ture’s most effective methods of displaying one’s inner self, and the murals provided shock- ing revelations into the psyche of each class. The Freshmen _por- trayed a kissing couple framed in hearts and ribbons, illustrating their still innocent faith in the concept of ideal love. The Juniors chose as their subject Disney characters, voicing their inner desires for a life more simple than that at MHS. The Seniors con- structed a self-portrait; hearts (symbolizing souls) flying high above a warped rainbow, searching for that final pot of gold (labeled ’79 — themselves). How- ever, since the Sopho- mores masterpiece was the most accurate por- trayal of life as it RE- ALLY is, they won the competition. Their de- piction of arrow bearing cherubs sig- nifies that they are al- ready aware that the key to survival here is hos- tility. W.C. DELICACIES Haute cuisine arrived with all the impact of a pie-in-the-face during the Winter Carnival week. I'm referring to the Pie Eating Contest, which caught the atten- tion of famous “‘pig- outters’” worldwide. They flocked to our gym to watch the event, which climaxed in a 3-way tie with the Se- niors, Sophomores, and Freshmen all waddling away with the coveted title under their belts. Commented one faculty member, “‘Sort of re- minds me of the scene in the Teachers’ Lounge at lunch- time...” John Picking attri- buted the Seniors’ fai- lure to dominate to the fact that “‘they didn’t have any Big Mac Pies,” and anyway Deb Malesky didn’t want to ruin her dress. After the contest, the crowd looked on in horror as Tim Brady stumbled off to eat a large lunch. However, a great time was had by all who at- tended. 53 p.6 SPORTS BEST EVENTS By Jock Higgins The intermural contests were an im- portant part of this years Winter Carni- val. The activity period was waited for anxiously every morning and talked about for the rest of the day. Mrs. Julian remarked, “The stu- dents were flying the rest of the day!” School spirit tripled because of this one event each day. Class spirit also was very high, and sometimes took precedence over school spirit. The four events (pie- eating, tug of war, volleyball, and floor hockey) were always ‘close, with no class dominating any of the events. One event, pie-eating, actually ended in a three way tie for first place among the Seniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen. THE SCAM By Jock Higgins Throughout this zany Winter Carnival many differences of opinion arose among the classes. Since this was the first carnival, problems should be expected, but some people had the gaul to criticize individuals who cheered, fought and scraped for every point. These people argue that the school comes before the class. I believe that strong class spirit leads to strong school spirit. Competition provokes this spirit which was so heartily expressed. The en- thusiasm of the stu- dents and that little added entertainment from the class advi- sors, helped unify not only the individual classes but also the school. It was readily evident in the in- creased school partic- ipation over the re- mainder of the school year. If the winter carnival is to become an event held each year, which I hope it is, this school will be helped by the to- gethemess it gives to each of the classes. SENIORS COP HOCKEY IN YOUR FACE The pie eating con- test has to be the one event that everyone will always remember. The looks on those hungry gladiators when the eat- ing was over will live forever in the minds of the people who wittnessed this out- rageous event. This was the only event to pro- duce a three way tie for first place. The Seniors, Sophomores, and I} sone OR For their last hurrah, the Seniors finally won an intramural event out- right — Floor Hockey! Led by Linda Kulig, PJ Salois, and goaltender Tom “Nose” Galanos, the Seniors breezed to their first win in the four events, gaining 25 points. The Juniors, who were defeated by the Seniors in the finals, ended with 20 points for their efforts. The Freshmen were third with 15 points, while the Sophomores trailed the pack with only 10 points. Freshmen all received 20 points with the last to their total. The in- tense rivalry between senior John “‘Mac’s’’ Picking, sophomore Tim “Tank” Brady, and freshmen Frank “Ralph” McNamara was phenomenal. Their eat- ing partners were De- borah Malesky, Ann Evans, and Peggy Hin- son respectively. =e Oe ee a ee {Fe VOLLEYBALL The intramural con- tests of the Winter Car- nival began on Monday with a very hotly de- bated volleyball win by the Freshman class. A clause in the rules forced the Seniors to forfeit a game that they had clearly dominated. Although a last-ditch protest was made by the Seniors, it proved to be futile. Dave Wilbur, Senior Class Advisor, said “‘If they have to cheat to win, let’em do it — we'll outplay them anyway!’ Mr. Rosen then commented, “Who cares?” In any case, the forfeit gave the Fresh- men the volleyball championship and 25 points. The Seniors fol- lowed with 20 points and the Juniors re- ceived 15, with the Sophomores getting only 10 points. Mr. Bob Evers, Freshman Class Advi- sor, provided some other fine entertain- ment during the games as he hopped up and down in the air, pes- tered the referee, and incited his class into a near-riotous state. The fiercest battles of the Carmival week was seen on Tuesday in the famed Tug o War event. Each class selected students until a weight limit of 2,500 pounds was reached. At this point, a superb tac- tical move was made by Mr. Leonard, Junior Class Advisor. He slyly placed more people on the rope by selecting students that weighed less. This move, which increased the man- euverability and friction of the Junior team, led to an easy victory over the Freshmen. The Seniors tried the opposite strategy, selecting the class’ strongest and heaviest individuals, thus reduc- ing the total number of the people on the rope. This strategy proved to be fatal, as the Seniors were quickly. dis- patched by the Sopho- mores and only barely managed to beat the Freshmen in the conso- lation match. — is ae In the final match, using their scientific strategy, the Juniors easily defeated the Sophomores to gain 25 p. 7 The received 20 points, followed by the Seniors with 15 and the Freshmen with 10. points.

At eleven o'clock, all students returned to a selectmen’s meeting and then went ona tour of the Town Hall and Police Station. Finally, everyone proceeded to the Asa Waters Mansion for a luncheon where certificates and bicentenial medals were awarded to each student. The day proved to be interesting and informative to all students. 58 | i “= : ‘ = _ = _— = = _— E = 59 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY INDUCTION The National Honor Society Induction was held on March 23, 1979 at eight o’clock in the evening. A welcoming speech was given by our president Karen Bernier.

Twenty new members were inducted by the present members which included twenty-one seniors. Two special events also took place as the ceremony proceeded. Our Assistant Principal, Mr. Martin Roach, was inducted into the Honor Society for his many outstanding years of achievement and help he has provided for our school. Also, to show our thanks and deep appreciation for our N.H.S. Advisor, Mrs. Fran Dupont, Alan Marquis and Cathi Modig presented Mrs. Duponta sterling silver platter engraved with words of appreciation and a bouquet of red roses. The night ended with refreshments served in the cafeteria, where congratulations were extended to all members of the N.H.S. by family and friends. e : NATIONAL —— eer eer [ } 4 r a 61 SENIOR SUPPER Our Senior Supper was held on May 10, 1979 at the Hogan Center, Holy Cross College in Worcester, from seven to twelve o'clock. Chaperones attending this event included Mrs. Dupont, Mr. Healy, Mr. Morrill, Mrs. Saucier, Mrs. Stepien and Mr. Wilbur. The evening began with the presentation of class gifts, some which caused embarassment for the recipients and evoked quite a bit of laughter from everyone else. After this was done, the meal was served which included New York sirloin. Following the meal the band, “Joshua Tree’, provided the music and the dance floor came alive. The band played selections from Fleetwood Mac, Queen, Linda Ronstadt, Elton John, And E.L.O. Our Senior Supper was a great success, and although the night passed too qucikly, a good time was had by all. 62 63 The Senior Class Trip was held at the Oak N’ Spruce Resort in the beautiful Berkshires on May 29, 1979. Chaperones for the day included Mr. Capparelli, Mrs. Dupont, Mr. Desrosiers, Mrs. Sinkus, Mrs. Stepien, Mrs. Saucier, and Mr. Wilbur. Various activities occured throughout the day. These included baseball, indoor and outdoor swimming, volleyball, frisbee, horseback riding, pinball, bumper pool, and golf. After these activities and many others, a relaxing sauna was available to all. A hamburger and hotdog barbeque was offered for lunch, while a chicken barbeque was more than welcome for dinner. This years trip proved to be enjoyable to everyone. ieee ey ini ate . On the evening of June 6, Millbury High held its annual Academic Awards Night which honors and recognizes outstanding students for their achievements in the classroom. Local scholarships, academic awards, and departmental awards were presented by Mr. Drake and a number of interested townspeople. In addition, Mr. George Wells, former Mayor of Worcester, gave a fine talk as guest speaker. Thirty-four organizations and individuals gave much needed scholarships to a large variety of seniors. The evening also saw Judy Dudley become the eighth Horace Mann student in the Class of ’79 and saw Chris Bien get a rousing cheer upon receiving the Physical Education Department Award. j it i] ) i t The Athletic Awards Banquet was held on May 24 at the Elmwood Street School. After a fine meal, the evening’s activities began with the presentation of a multitude of JV awards. The IAABO Award was presented to the school by Mr. John Murphy. This award signifies excellence in sportsmanship. With the aid of Mr. Morrill and Mr. Wilbur, Mr. Garabedian then gave out the various varsity awards. Over 80 first year varsity letters were awarded. Linda Kulig received an unparalled 3 MVP awards for Girls Track, Basketball, and Field Hockey. The MVP’s for Millbury’s new sports were Stanley Wilczynski for Winter Track and Chery! Warren for Girls Cross Country. 67 On June 15, the last day of school for underclassmen, an assembly was held at the end of the day. Its purpose was to bid farewell to a longtime friend of Millbury Memorial High School — Mr. Martin J. Roach. After a long standing ovation, the class presidents came forward to present Mr. Roach with some very nice gifts. For the Class of 1982, Darlene Mangiulli presented our assistant principal with a beautiful pen and pencil set. Lorraine Gauthier gave him an engraved key chain on behalf of the Class of “81. For the Class of 1980, Doreen Webb presented Mr. Roach with a weekend at the Cape, a rather large cigar, some “wild and crazy” sunglasses, and a roll of fortune cookie-type toilet paper.

Leonard, J. Dwinell, P. Pelletier, A. Belliveau, M. Lavallee, Coach D. Sullivan, Coach S. O'Neil. Seer eT The football team of 78-79 was a team that surprised fans and faculty alike. The change to a coaching staff under the leadership of head coach Bob Hayes and assistant coaches Dennis (Ready-Go) Sullivan and Steve (Up-Downs) O'Neil did not at all dull the spirit of winning in the 77-78 season. The leadership of team captains Bob Hebert, Todd Mogren, and “ae Rudge was strong enough to tum 35 individuals into one united team. The Woolies were sparked into a sen- sational season’s start with a victory over Bay Path. Although Millbury lost the next game to West Boylston, they bounced back to an incredible victory over heavily favored Bartlett High and proceeded to win decisively its next three games. Although many key players were out with crucial injuries, Millbury wouldn’t die as they battled out their next four games and the team’s determi- nation startled all who watched the Laem 36 High game. Down 6 to 0, Millbury forged back to Northbridge’s 6 inch line, where fate stole away a much earned and desired victory. Even though Millbury ended with an impressive 5-5 season, the Woolies displayed the desire, determination, and fortitude of a cham- pionship team.

The cap- tains of this year’s squad were Linda Kulig, Karen Bernier, and Marcia Gil- bert, who incidently were the only 3 re- turning varsity players. This year was supposed to be a rebuilding year but the girls turned it into a winning season. The MVP selected by the Athletic Association was Linda Kulig, a 3 year starting varsity player. This year a new award was given to the varsity player who didn’t play up to Miss Harrington’s liking. The hicky recipient of the Little Old Ladies Award was Judy Stickney. Having lost all but two starting per- formers from the 1977 field hockey team, this year’s team proved that working to- gether and having the will to win, could produce a team worth watching. Next years team is looking forward to an equally successful, if not better season with captains, Lynn Ethier, Wendy Simpson, Judy Stickney, and Brenda Belsito leading the way.

However, this was not enough to win the Southern Worcester County League Championship. The boys ran into trouble when they met West Boylston, Grafton, and Northbridge. Led by senior captain Tom Lowe, the team proved to be a strong contender and threat in the SWCL league. Along with Tom, sophomore Brennan Wall, the team’s MVP, and junior John Hachey paced the Woolies to its winning season. Also contributing to the team’s fine sea- son were Brian Blondin, Paul Salois, Pat McGrath, David Bordeau, James McNamara, Greg Woodward, and Ken Wood. The team as a whole achieved a fourth place finish in the league meet. This years team showed the ability to run in- dividually as well as the ability to work as a team.

Pierce, A. Bourdeau, M. White, and M. Leonard who each scored over 20 points each. Key team members were B. Blondin, A. Marquis, R. Bricault and V. Taft, who ran different events each week in order to help the team win. The team members selected Maureen Bubon, Robert Wilbur, and Stanley Wilczynski as the Most Valuable Players and the Millbury Athletic Association selected Stan Wilczynski as its MVP. a shuattA st) SUPP Nhelveneenstrine tee oe Team M O Lunenburg ol 55 (B) Gardner 34 52 Narragansett Ya 65 David Prouty 36 50 Lunenburg 28 58 Oakmont 17 69 North Middlesex 4] 45 Groton-Dunstable 72. 14 Coach David Wilbur PY Ee. all a eee a ao —_— ee % ee Ee } WLPURY LR ag lig’, L-R Row 1: B.

Coach Ray Greenwood, Assistant Coach Jerry Shepard, and senior captains Bob Hebert, Brian Wilczynski, Todd Mogren, and Kevin Higginbottom, were the in- strumental leaders in the overall season. Also contributing to the team’s fine efforts were Nicky Di- Carlo, John MHachey, Steve Erickson, Matt Methot, David Picard, Harry Griffin, Dennis Leonard, Ron Brunelle, and Mark Lavallee. Millbury also achieved a position in the District III Division II Tour- nament. Unfortunately, the team fell short to a tough Worcester Voca- tional team, the eventual winners of the Division II title. For the past two years, the MHS baseball team has eared a position in the District Tournament and hopefully next year’s team can con- tinue this achievement of success. a Seip ca ee m, Rat MS, retin a Se Team Hopedale Grafton Northbridge Uxbridge David Prouty Leicester West Boylston Oxford Grafton Northbridge Uxbridge David Prouty Leicester West Boylston Oxford Aubum Bay Path Tantasqua District III Worcester Voke NUAWSOSCHAWAOUMUAMAMwWHH PHO ei 4 � | ( L-R Row 1: K.

This year’s softball team went through a rather disappointing sea- son with a record of 2 wins and 13 losses. Having lost six seniors from last ears squad, the team had to re- build and learn how to work to- gether. Unfortunately, the team didn’t pull itself together in time to turn out a good season. Coached by Ann Harrington and led by co-captains Darlene Cristo, Marcia Gilbert, and Manager Dolly C., the team kept up its spirit through every game that was either won or lost. Although it was a disappointing season, the team made the best of it, with water fights and the Peach Basket Award. The Peach Basket Award was another wacky award given by Miss Harrington that was given to a player who made the most errors in a single game. This years MVP award went to Marcia Gilbert and a special coach’s award went to Darlene Cristo. Next year’s team is looking for- ward to a much better season along with all of the fun that this year’s team had.

GILL Ap tt om oh eth� ; rae - : Tea The 1979 boys track team ac- complished the ultimate in going unde- feated this season. This year saw the first unbeaten team that had more than ten meets and the first Millbury victory over Shepard Hill. The season’s accomplish- ments depended on the versatility of all the team members. All of the athletes put the team first and themselves second in helping the team to a 15-0 record. Led by Bill Stairs who scored 302 points (a single season record), and seniors Stan Wilczynski and Bob Wilbur, and ba- lanced scoring from the other teammates, the team was able to win many close meets. A remarkable fact was that all the boys on the squad scored. School records were broken this year by Stan Wilczynski in the triple jump with a leap of 415”, Bill Stairs in the 120 yard high hurdles in 15.8 seconds, and by the mile relay team of Bob Wilbur, Mark Leonard, Tom Lowe, and Bill Stairs with a time of 3.31. The MVP selected by the Athletic As- sociation was Bill Stairs. The team also captured the SWCL dual meet champi- onship for the third time in four years, the SWCL league meet for the second time in three years, and they placed sec- ond in the District III Class B meet and ninth in the District III All-Class meet. This was truly an enjoyable season for Coaches John Graham and Dave Wilbur and especially for the team members. ies Wa ETE ‘bebe ‘i tre) q steven His ne fidjsasessad Rerenrrenvee te ce iy bikie SRN 4 Team Tahanto Clinton Grafton Nipmuc Northbridge David Prouty West Boylston Oxford Leicester Blackstone-Millville Tantasqua Blackstone Valley SWCL Meet Shepard Hill Westboro Hudson Catholic District III Class C District III All-Class ee K.

The season also included a second place finish in the District III Class C Relay Meet and an excellant fourth place finish in the All-Class Dis- trict Meet. Six school records were broken this ear and the following senior members ‘leave holding these records: Linda Kulig — high jump, 880 yard run, and the mile relay; Karen Belliveau — 100 yard dash, and the 4 by 110 relay; Maureen Bubon — 440 yard dash, and the mile relay; Susan Bianculli — the mile relay. MVP Linda Kulig concluded an excel- lent career compiling 648% points and she holds the number one position on the all-time scoring list. Karen Belliveau, Sue Bianculli, and Diana Boire also completed fine careers finishing 5th, 6th, and 7th, respectively. Seniors Dian Goyette and Vicki Taft also helped a great deal and were ap- preciated for their dedication, en- thusiasm, and for the fine examples they set for the younger team members. Coaches Robert Nicoletti and Julie Mor- ris did a fine job in leading these girls to their victories. tony a meena HHI CET Team Blackstone- Millville Grafton Auburn Southbridge Northbridge Shrewsbury Algonquin West Boylston Oxford Assabet Tantasqua David Prouty SWCL Meet Shepard Hill Tahanto District III Div. 3 36 35 61 56 88 48 43 42 59% 40 a8) Ist ot PAS Ist L-R Row 1: W.

For the third year in a row, Coach Richard McGrail’s golf team won the Southern Worcester County League’ golf championship. Millbury’s impressive 17-1 record can be attributed to the fine playing of senior Bill Lucey, Bob Bekier, Dave Bourdeau, Ken Wood, Scott Bernier, and Bob Townsend. Bill Lucey was chosen as this years M.V.P. Bill, Bob Bekier, and Ken Wood were selected to play in the District golf tournament. Bob and Ken played, but both missed the state qualifications by 1 shot. For 13 years, the MHS golf team has had a winning season. We are sure that this success will continue in the future.

For the majority of us, these experiences began to play a role in our lives as our class started to form in September of 1975. Being Freshman in high school was somewhat different from what we were used to. At that time, there was more responsibilities that required our individed attention. During that year we really had no class advisor, although Mr. Bomengern did try to help as best he could. During that year we took part in the annual magazine drive; and Mike Wackell and Bill Lund showed us their artistic ability in the Olympic Mural contest by winning third place. We elected class officers and those chosen were: Pam Carrignant as President, Mary Foley as Vice-President, Mary Jo Welcom as Secretary and Elizabeth Jung as Treasurer. Having had an easy freshman year, many things seemed to make our sophomore year just a bit more difficult. Once again we elected class officers. Voted into office were: Karen Bernier as President, Mary Foley as Vice-President, Donna Wiberg as Secretary and Patricia Markey as Treasurer. As our first advisor, we were privileged to have Mrs. Mary Anne Anderson. Under her advisement, we sponsored a Donkey Basketball.game. We also had our first car wash which was held on what had to be the coldest day of that year. We then took part in another mural contest in which our class came in first place — thanks to the help of Mike Wackell, Mary Foley, Pam Shaffer, Donna Wiberg, Sue Bianculli, and Maureen Stacy. That year, the senior class of 77 sponsored an “Ugliest Couple Day”, and from our class Donna Wilbert and P.J. Salois entered — taking second place. During this year we also selected our class rings. During our junior year, our class was advised by Miss Julia DeFeudis, Mrs. Donna Saucier, and Mr. Daivd Wilbur. Those who were voted into office were: Karen Belliveau as President, Diana Boire as Vice-President, Laurie Bratiotis as Secretary, and Debbie Malesky as Treasurer. The activities of this year included a car wash combined with a pancake breakfast and a yard sale. We also participated in the Almost Anything Goes competition. One of the most important activities — which we long awaited — was our Prom. It was held on May 12, 1978 at the ITAM Club in Worcester. The band was Flight and even though they didn’t know our theme song, “How Deep is Your Love’, they still were pretty good. Pam Carrignant was chosen as queen and her court consisted of Karen Bernier, Karen Belliveau, Donna Wiberg, Monica Seaver, Chery] McDermott and Pam Weaver. One exciting and surely unforgetable event was that Todd Mogren’s car was stolen from the parking lot. We all seemed to have a good time anyway. This year, we did many things that we will never forget. Because of a tremendous hole in our pockets, this year’s seniors raised class dues from the usual two dollars a person to ten dollars. Even though this raised our financial spirits somewhat, we still needed much more to enable the accomplishment of our expensive endeavors. Included in our fund raising activities were a fruit drive, concessions at both football and soccer games, a film festival, jewelry sales, a Halloween Party for the children in town, a benefit basketball game between the Millbury and Worcester Police forces. At this time we would like to thank Mrs. Stepien, Mrs. Dupont, and our special friend Mr. David Wilbur for helping organize many of our fund-raising activities. Our Senior Supper was held on May 10th at Hogan Campus Center at Holy Cross College. The bend was Joshua Tree and although the temperature was exasperating, they managed to have the seniors dancing the whole night. We presented the traditional class gifts and shared the rest of the evening with our fellow classmates. One unforgettable event was the presentation of a crown to our President, Maureen Stacy. For the first time in the four years we have know her, Maureen was absolutely speechless. On May 29th, we had our class trip. As was done in previous years, our class voted to go to the beautiful Oak Spruce Resort located in the Berkshires. Although there was a brief shower in the afternoon, we made sure it didn’t put a damper on our fun. The excitement we all felt as the days toward graduation grew nearer brought us all closer together. Our class took part in many other activities which we cannot elaborate on. These include Student Government Day, the play M A S H, in which Mark Cormier and Neil White had lead roles, the Spring Fashion Show, a Winter Carnival, and many sporting events. This year, four members of our class were chosen to participate in the Presidential Classroom. Our classmates Karen Bernier, Linda Sauer, Bob Hebert, and John Greene were given the opportunity to lean about government first hand. What better place to study about law first hand than Washington D.C., where each student spent a week. A lot of money was raised over the last four years thanks to the cooperation of many members of the class. The tremendous help we received from our yearbook advisor, Mr. Paul Clancy, made it possible for a yearbook containing all of the memories that we will value in years to come. We are proud to say that forty-one members of our class are graduating with honors, twenty of which are members of the National Honor Society. We would especially like to take this time to congratulate our Horace Mann Students. These students have averaged 90 or above for two consecutive years. They are Raymond Bricault, Judy Dudley, John Greene, Robert Hebert, Thomas Lowe, Patricia Markey, Paul Pelletier, and Linda Sauer. Along with the memories, Mr. Drake and Mr. Roach are to be congratulated for making it through these four years with us and having the courage to continue on. Dr. Sylvia and Mr. Garabedian, who helped support many of our class activities are also thanked. We would also like to thank the rest of the faculty and administration for the encouragement and assistance they have given us over the past four years. We would especially like to thank our advisor Mr. David Wilbur who was always there to help us when we needed him. Without him to push us, we never could have had as much fun as we did this year. We would like to take this time and dedicate it to Kenneth Mardirosian who is unable to be with us here today because of an unfortunate accident which has put him in the hospital for a long period of time. Called “Mardy” by his friends, Ken was an active member of sports and other activities that went on in school. We are sure that Mardy knows we will all be thinking of him on graduation day. Our high school years are now over and all of our ties with Millbury High will soon be broken. However, even though we may not have shown it too frequently, we all appreciate what Millbury High has given us and we will carry its riches with us forever.
