You got it. Of course, we ' re talking about the school lunch. Today ' s divine delicacy is the manag- er ' s special. Well, what that really means is you dump all the week ' s leftovers into a colossal pot (there ' s a lot o£ leftovers when you ' re dealing with the School lunch) pot and boil. Serves 5,395. Feeds three. But, seriously now, lunch isn ' t all that bad. If you ' re lucky you may get pre-drained piece of pizza and maybe if you tell them it ' s your birthday, you ' ll get some milk that only recently expired. The true fun about lunch is the people. The Cat. is really a hodge-podge-mumble-jumble of faces, pretty and plain, and voices, little and loud, and your friends (probably the loud of little and loud ). Lunch is a great time to catch a not-so- subtle peek at that gorgeous guy you sometimes accidentally bump into in H-Hall (great hall, that H-Hall), or to see your new girlfriend who, unfortunately, couldn ' t be in any of your classes cuz you ' re an Honors whiz kid and she ' s out of Remedial Homeroom, or to exchange tidbits of life- or-death views and opinions with your gang (who dumped who, last block ' s huge Chem test, you studied the wrong chapter for, new tortures devised to embarrass your worst enemies, etc.). Lunchtime- A time to laugh, a time to live, even a time to love. So what? We ' ll find a time to eat later.

Roncalli (V.Pres.), A. Tenbrooh (Treas.). Beginning with the kick-off dance and all the way to graduation day, the senior class officers worked together to create a memorable and ex- citing year for us. The four officers, along with the advisor began planning this year ' s events long before September. All four contributed very much of themselves and their time to make everything happen. Very vast responsibilities were placed on them also, ranging from turkeys to caps and gowns. They took on a lot to make this year special, and we have a lot of good memories thanks to them. The Class of 1 985 has many people to thank, both students and faculty. But, we owe more thanks to Mrs. Streeter, our class advisor, than anyone. Due to her help, the Class of 1985 has had four completely successful years. Freshman year, Mrs. Streeter and class advisor Mrs. Albano helped us to plan successful events such as Freshman Spirit Week and the freshman eighth-grade dance. We also held the button sale and raffle for fund raisers. Unfortunately, Mrs. Albano left Minnechaug, and Mrs. Streeter was to take on our sophomore year by herself. She helped us in our major fund-raiser, the chocolate bunny sales. Due to these sales, we made over $2,000! Junior year began with the work weekend. Although few yards were raked, we made profit and had a lot of fun in the process. Our most successful fund-raiser was our magazine drive; we made over $6,000!!!! The Class of 1 985 is able to brag about having few problems in our four years. Our senior activities, the prom, the banquet, and our senior dances, would not have been possible without the help of Mrs. Streeter, our organizer, our friend, our advisor. The entire Class of 1 985 thanks you. 11 Laura Abar 35 Walnut Rd. Hamp. Teresa Joanne Agnew (T.J.) 10 Stonegate Circle, Wilb. Swimming (1,2,3,4) Track (3), Band (1,2,3,4), P. V.

Chairman Language is the light of the mind. John Stuart Mill Hola! Bon jour! How ya doin!! This year the Foreign Language Department, headed by Miss Fey, developed a new outlook on the usual curriculum. Much more emphasis was placed on the art of foreign rapping in addition to grammatical and writing skills. It ' s important that the stu- dents can actually use the lan- guage effectively, explained Miss Fey. Conversational skills are go- ing to be very important for those people looking at the job market for an area in communications. Some colleges are now using a sys- tem of proficiency rating to see with how much ease the student can use the language. Now, students at Minnechaug are also learning about the people and cultures of other countries. They are being encouraged to see that not the whole world thinks the same way, although in some aspects we are all very much the same. Thank you to the foreign language department for helping us learn that. By Tina Desai.

Albert Schweitzer Perhaps you have looked at Sci- ence as a great mystery, a puzzle missing a few pieces, an impossi- bility to conquer. Or, perhaps, that ' s how you ' ve looked at your science tests. But wait — science can be fun. Freshman year was Earth Sci- ence. You remember — identify- ing rocks. When all you know about rocks is soft rock, hard rock, and punk rock — it can be tough. You may also select courses such as Biology, Human Physiology, Chemistry, First Aid, Physics, General Geology, and Indepen- dent Study.

The Minnechaug library is a great place for books with everything from Customs of Old New England to Seventeen . The place is just crawling with reference ma- terials, dictionary, encyclopedias, almanacs, etc., and the librarians are a super group, eager to help you with that 40 -page term paper on Buddhism due next block that was assigned that month you for- got to pay attention.

Lyndon B. Johnson Cooperative Education courses are offered to juniors and seniors interested in learning about ca- reers and opportunities through classroom activities and first- hand experience. The students w io are seen sell- ing candy and sweatshirts in the school store are a part of the dis- tributive education program. They also sell things such as note paper and stationery from door to door, learning about the proce- dures used in selling. The student is a part of the work study program if he or she is employed within the first two weeks of the quarter. Provided scheduling and credit responsi- bilities are taken care of, the stu- dents can leave school early each day. By becoming involved in coop- erative education the students are starting to plan for their future. This is just one of the ways that Minnechaug helps its students.

Here, stu- dents learn the skills needed to become clerks and businessmen by taking courses from three ma- jor areas: secretarial, accounting, and clerk typist. Courses in typ- ing, steno, transcription, ac- counting, economics, and busi- ness law, clerical and business math, office procedures, and in- dependent study help prepare the student for a career in the world of business. For example, in ac- counting, the student learns how to keep a checkbook, prepare a balance sheet, and to journalize transactions. All business courses are open on an elective basis for college prep students wishing to develop these types of skills for either profes- sional or personal use.

It offers six different courses for freshmen through seniors. There ' s a place for the student who ' s interested in Art as a hobby as well as the student who intends to make his career in the Arts. Students enrolled in these courses learn not only by doing craft work but also through reading, lectures, films, and dis- cussions. The relaxed atmosphere of Minnechaug ' s art courses help to make them very enjoyable for the student, but the graduates of these programs can look back and realize they ' ve learned a great deal about technique, art history, craftsmanship, creative thinking and many other aspects of art.

Instead students ' voices signing in harmony drift out into the hallway. The altos and basses are low and resound- ing, while the sopranos and ten- ors are high and sharp. The scene changes and the MRHS Football team has just scored a touch down. The band suddenly starts playing the school song. The cheerleaders sing, Give a cheer for Minne- chaug.

Other outstanding contributors were three-year starter Pete Alberici, Dave Mitchell, Curt Rahilly, Dave Fredericks, Steve Kroll, Brian Lucas, Pete Squelia, Reid Greco, Adam Morgan, and the exceptional play of new- comer Steve Work. With underclassmen Mike Chambers, Glenn Henningsen, Matt Silva, Mark Macero, Pete Siciliano, and Mike Alberici the Falcons winning tradition is sure to continue.

The offense was sparked by the all-junior line of Jeff Jones, Craig Carrigan, Mike Moretti, and Bill Hick. The halfbacks controlled the middle of the field virtually ev- ery game with the aid of Brian Howard, Ed Presz, Mike Voigh t, and Brian Halloran. Captain Dave Havican led a ferocious defense along with Chris Den- nis and Colin Bachelder. Doug Badger and John Voight, an All-Western Mass. candidate, took on the goalkeeping duties. Congratulations on a challeng- ing season and good luck to the CRUE of next year. By Jeff Jones BOYS ' J.V. SOCCER - :. Jim Bibens goals for it! No! You can ' t have it! It ' s mine! 101 For the third year in a row, the J.V. Boys ' Soccer Team compiled the best record in Western Mass; a mark of 9 wins, 2 losses, and 5 ties. The team ' s key to success was experience. Junior co-captains Jim Bibens and Loel Tronsky, along with other second year J.V. players, Bill Moreno, Rich Blomstrom, Jeff Dennis, and Pete Folvi, led a blanced attack. The offense tallied a total of 4 2 goals over a season of sixteen games, while the defense yeild- ed a mere 1 2 goals, including 8 shut-outs. Although many influencial players will be lost to varsity next season, a strong nucleus of sophomores and incoming freshmen should make the 1 985 squad as strong as ever.

The Fal- cons were led by first-year (ever) coach Martin Kibbe, co-cap- tains Brian Siddel (a promising goalie) and Jeff Robinson (a skilled speedy offensive player and the teams top point tal- lier.)

Leading scorers Sue Buchholz, Steph- anie Bennett, and Wendy Hick were also very important in leading us to many of our victo- ries, as was our defense.

No longer can Minnechaug rank on its field hockey team. Don ' t call us a losing team or ask us if we are going to win a game, because this year we made a long-awaited come- back. We fought hard and it worked! Sharon Kane slammed in four goals, Diana Grover scored one, and Mad Dog De- sautelle gave us six shutouts. We ended the 1984 season with a real record of 4-7-3 and placed fourth in our league. Our seniors will be sorely missed, not only for their work on the field, but because they, along with Madonna, kept us going all season. Oh, my God- noo! By Maura Donovan First Row: N. Desautelle, S.

FIELD HOCKEY When the field hockey season began, the junior varsity team faced a poor turnout of eleven players, only four of whom had ever played the game before. The outlook was not promising, but within a few weeks five more first-year players came out. Skills and drills were taught and reviewed by Coach Sue McFadden. Soon, some real talent became evident. Due to a lack of J. V. teams in the league, they were only scheduled for five games. But they got to- gether three scrimmages and had a final record of 1-4-3. Good-job, Donovan guys!!!

With, sweat pouring down her face, muscles screaming with pain, and lungs gasping for breath, the Minnechaug cross- country runner once again came through with a victory over her competitor. The 1984 record was 10-2, with a tough loss to Cathedral and a loss to Amherst after defeating them a few weeks earlier. The team will miss seniors Sue Counos and Anne Szymanski. Anne could always be counted on to place well for the team. Sue holds two course records at Minnechaug and Belchertown and competed in the State ' s Competition- 1982. Contribut- ing to the success of the team was the steady guidance and support from the caring Coach Hal Miller.

Jump ball! Congratulations to the Minnechaug Cagers for their best season ever. The team posted a 13- 6 record in route to their second playoff berth in as many years and its first number one ranking. The team played a tough schedule but started quick and never cooled down. An eight-game winning streak enabled the Falcons to maintain first place throughout the season as they rolled over the likes of Longmeadow, Putnam and So. Hadley. The hoopsters were led by all-Western Mass. Co-captains Bill Sullivan and Dean Dickinson who played superbly all season long at the for- ward slots. Senior center Mark Fegley held his own in a new position on both offense and de- fense. The backcourt was made up of three-year player Brian Lucas at the shooting guard posi- tion and Mike Stuart, a first year player, at the point and directing the offense. The Falcon bench wasn ' t a weak spot with Senior sixth-man Scott Kaczmnarski and Ju- nior Mark Lowry contributing heavily to the Falcon onslaught. The rest of the fine-pine crew was rounded out by Seniors Tim Brown, Tom OBrien, and John Mcllvain. Next year ' s re- turners include Ted Sherman and Bob Callahan providing a strong foundation for Coach Girotti to continue his winning ways. 114 Senior Mark Fegley goes up for turo.

The team jumped out early in the season with three quick victories including a big win over the league powerhouse Cathedral Pan- thers. Their streak was ended when the Falcons dropped the next three games. After this set back, the Falcons put their heads together and went on to tear up the league and finish off the season with an im- pressive record and a berth into the playoffs. This year ' s team was led by sophomore Brian Hal- loran and seniors Kurt Jones, and Rob Smith. Back- ing them up was the awesome defensive duo of Matt Rogers and Don Rostowski. The second line was head- ed up by Dave Hartin who was said to have the best move in the league. Helping him were juniors Pete Siciliano and John O ' Shaughnessy. Senior Jeff Ba- chand and sophomore Jay Henriques backed up this with steady defensive play. The third and final line featured a cast of juniors including Mike Philips, Scott Makuch, and Dave Reed. Helping them out on defense was senior Dave Cowee. The surprise of the year came from sophomore Andy Brown. Andy ' s league leading goal tending shocked every team in the league. Andy ' s back up was senior Dave Mitchell. The team would like to thank Coach Martin Kibbe for all of his guidance and support.

This year for the first time in a decade the club has 89 members. It ' s main goal is to promote the classics, but fortunately this can be done in a fun way. There are three competitions that the members will parcipitate this year. The state competition was the catapult contest held in Waltham, Ma. Minnechaug placed first at this competition. There is another state competition in May at Winchester High School where the JCL competes in art, athlet- ics and academics. This years high lights is the national convention at UNH. Our biggest project as co-hosts will be to plan the opening performance to welcome the other states to New England. Members include T. Auslander, L. Azar, R. Belcastro, N. Bernardo, H. Broderick, A.

This annual event is sponsored by the Junior Classical League and always has a large turnout. This year ' s band was Fi- asco, who kept everyone dancing from eight to eleven. 139 ONE ACTS An overdose of applause spilled forth the night of Nov. 1 6 as the Falcon Players slid successfully through yet another quartet of plays. The First, Farmer ' s Daughter, warmed us up with a lighthearted tale of a piano-playing country girl who dreams of making it big in the city and falls prey to a sweet-talking cityslicker who promises to help her but is, in reality, after just one thing — her money. An Overpraised Season blew in next, truly hitting home. This 40-minute play dealt with the problems facing today ' s tears. Then, in slipped A Visitor from Forest Hills by Neil Simon. It was definitely the smash of the evening. This was a beautifully done comedy where a young girl locks herself up in the bathroom minutes before her wed- ding is to take place and refuses to come out. Her hysterical parents ' at- tempts at persuading her to emerge in loads of laughter from the audi- ence. And finally, Chapter Two, an- other Neil Simon play where a man must learn to love again after losing his beloved wife of 12 years. His brother ' s flame ' s friend is the new love interest in his life. Visitor From Forest Hills: D. Badger, C. Roj, J. Horacek, S. Gentile. Behind the scenes. Tim McKenna, Technical Advisor.

Montalban. Missing: K. Griswold. Students Cindy Roy, Lisa Montalban, Ka- ren Griswold and Linda Fortin, comprised this year ' s group of business aides. These lend-a-hand teens run errands around the Business Department, such as, typing bud- get work and letters and running off copies of worksheets. Thanks to Mrs. Jeserski, Mr. Verani, Mr. Deely and Ms. Guziec, these girls gained much experience at working at a job, and the business teachers had less worries to bog them down. -Tina Desai 142 MODEL CONGRESS Each year high school students from all over New England jour- ney to AIC for Model Congress. Each school brings a bill that they feel would make a good law. These bills are debated in various committees and then redebated in the Senate and House of Repre- sentatives. Model Congress gives those students involved a better understanding of how our govern- ment works and how laws are made. It also gives them a look at the many difficulties that there are in succeeding to pass a bill into the law. Minnechaug won the competition last year with their Lemon Bill. -Steve Maselli First Row: J. Barufaldi, J. Miller, D. Howell, P. McDonald, S. Sherman. Second Row: M. Fegley, C. Rymsza, K. Zachary, S.

Who cares? The As Schools Match Wits team does! Any mem- ber of the team could tell you that and the answer to many other dif- ficult questions as well. The team, coached by dauntless leader Ray Musselman, spends weeks preparing for the big match on TV. by memorizing cards and quizzing one another. Then the big day arrives and the team goes to TV 22 for the match. With a little bit of knowledge (and a lot of luck), the team tries to last three matches to go the play-offs in the spring. Nerves were run ragged before the match, Minnechaug was to go against an undefeated Pittsfield, who needed just one more match to go to the play-offs. Although Minnechaug lost, they gave Pitts- field a hard match, losing by only 30 points. By Gregg Lannon First Row: J. Holland, Adv. Mr. Mussleman. Second Row: K. Zachary, G. Lannon, D. Badger, J.

The PE leaders are students who in their first two years as P.E. stu- dents have shown leadership and interest in this field. These leaders aid the teacher in var- ious tasks such as saving a floundering student in fresh- man pool or belaying a hanging sophomore in Project Adven- ture. Being a P.E. leader can be a very exciting alternative from regular gym classes for the mo- tivated PE. student. -Kathy Mullett MATHLETES Mathletes First row: R. Pruett, E. Karplus, K. Zachary, J.

There are meet- ings twice a week and Mr. Granaudo, their dedicated ad- visor, is always at hand and ea- ger to help them with any diffi- culties they may have. And for all you unmathletic kids out there, mathletes isn ' t only for Einsteins.

Laughing Brook, Channel 57 and the Wil- hraham Children ' s Museum are just a few groups that have re- ceived donations from PAVAS in the past. This year ' s planned activities included a fall car wash, an Elec- tion Night Bake Sale, a Christmas Mistletoe Sale, a Gift Certificate Raffle, and a second car wash in the Spring. In addition to this, PA VAS members also work as vol- unteers, working for such organi- zations as WGBY, Channel 57 and the Wilbraham Arts Council. With all of this going on, PAVAS is undoubtedly one of the most active clubs at Minnechaug, yet it is for being a club that is all work and no play! The club spon- sors yearly trips to New York City and Stage West in the spring and at Christmas time they hit the streets to sing Christmas Carols. -Greg Lannon 4 145 . YEARBOOK First Row: K.

They ' re super girls! - Tina Desai 151 BAND The clarinetists practice for the big show. The Minnechaug band, directed by Mr. Beeler, consists of ninety- six dedicated musicians who have practiced and taken musical les- sons for a minim um of four years. This year the band raised mon- ey with their annual orange and grapefruit jamboree. The money gained from the fruit sale was used for a day trip in the spring. The Band also helped psych and support the football team with their go-get-em spirit at the games. Concerts performed this year were the Winter Concert and the Pops Dinner Concert. The band wrapped up the year with its per- formance at Graduation - a spe- cial farewell to the Seniors. Mr. Beeler leads the talented musicians. 152 CHORUS J. Holdswrorth, M. Kanzinger, C. Mathews, M. Donovan and H. Congo, part of the soprano section. Chorus You probably think you ' re a great singer. Come on, we ' ve heard you belting it out at 6 a.m.. in the shower. I also used to think I sang just like Madonna, and then some- one introduced me to a wonderful gadget called the tape recorder. I sounded like a strange cross be- tween the Chipmunks and weird Al Yankovic. Now, here ' s three groups of peo- ple I ' m sure have never burst into tears when they heard a playback of their tra-la-la ' s. First, Chorus. No prerequisite is required, and cho- rus members are trained in tone production, breathing, and vowel and consonant use. There are the spring and winter concerts as well as the Pavas Arts Symposium. The madrigal singers are trained in the most demanding type of unaccom- panied singing with 1 6th and 1 7th century music. Some madri- gals also participate as leaders in the Concert Choir. Performances by the Choir include Open House, The Choral Festival, and Graduation. -Tina Desai Junior, alto, Noel Rihm giving it her all!

Twice a month the student gov- ernment gathers together to dis- cuss activities that range from school dances to school rules. It may seem like missing a class or getting out of a study, but togeth- er they -work very hard at sponsor- ing and planning events to hap- pen during the year. The Student Government sponsored many ac- tivities such as the annual Semi- Formal Dance, donating $500 to the Minnechaug Scholarship fund, and sponsoring the Copy Cat Dance to help raise money for the Yearbook Committee. They also, helped raise money to send to Ethiopia by organizing a school fast. Minnechaug was able to send over $750 to Ethiopia thru an organization called Oxfam.

John O ' Shauganessy, Kathy Mullet, Su- zanne Singiser, and Mike Sauve. Two swinging singles, Kurt Jones and Bri- an Lucas. The Christmas Semi-Formal, spon- sored by Student Government, was a su- per success as always this year. The guys were a streak of style, the girls, a drizzle of dazzle. The mien of romance was hard to miss as the couples danced the night away to the music of Syren. But the night, when over, was greatly missed by most. One day limp white bou- tennieres and faded carnations tossed into memory boxes will remind many of this very special night of the Christmas of ' 84.

We would like to thank those who have helped us achieve our goal — the 1985 Falcon Yearbook. To our advisor, Mrs. Jeserski, we can never thank you enough for all of your time, patience, and personal sacrifice that you have given us over the past three years. You were the one solid person we could depend on when most others let us down. God, how did we ever get through some of those excruciating moments? Through our three years of work together you ' ve become more than our teacher and advisor, you ' ve become our friend. Without your guidance and support, there would probably never have been a 1985 Falcon. Thank you so much! Mrs. Gordon, thank you for your time and commitment as our business advisor for the past three years. You really helped us last fall when things were still up in the air. Mr. Badger, thank you for your concern and for taking the time to meet with us whenever we needed assistance. Jim McDonald, thank you for your technical help with the 1985 Falcon cover. Don Lendry, our yearbook representative, our thanks to you and your assistant Bob Sasena for your work in putting the Falcon together. Valley Photographers, thank you for all the last minute trips and loads of patience. The Falcon Staff, thank you for all of your time and effort. We finally made it, guys! Kiersten Karplus, thank you so m uch for the different jobs that you did for us without a second thought. Student Government, thank you for your support with the Copy Cat Dance. Mrs. Streeter, thank you for donating a portion of our class money for the baby pictures. Drew Dernavich and Chris Dennis, thank you for your artwork contributions. Shelia Gentile and Joe Horacek, thank you for your help with the Copy Cat Dance announcements (along with the grief you took) and the raffle. Thank you to Linda Fortin and everyone else who helped type copy for us at the last minute. We would like to thank the faculty and students of Minnechaug for their help and support with the 1985 Falcon and the senior class parents for sending us baby pictures and patron money. Last but not least .... a BIG thank you to our families and friends for supporting us through the good times and the bad times.
