Smith, a teacher who has been one of the greatest assets our school has known. During the six years he has taught here, Mr. Smith has demonstrated excellence and sincere personal concern for students — in his business classes and in his voluntary contributions to their extra-curricular activi- ties. He has consistently donated his personal time by selling tick- ets at football games, timing the varsity basketball and wrestling matches, chaperoning our school dances, and by attending all of our stage productions. Mr. Smith, whose generosity extends into the community, is active as a member of the Parent-Teacher’s Organi- zation and bas served in the capacity of President of this organiza- tion. Mr. Smith has had an extremely diverse and interesting educa- tional background. He attended Omaha University and Iowa State College and was later commissioned in the Navy in 1945. Mr. Smith graduated from the United States Naval Submarine School in the same class as President Carter. After graduation Mr. Smith com- manded the Submarine U.S.S. Toutta and the U.S.S. Cadmus, a repair ship. Having graduated from the Naval War College, Mr. Smith taught at the Submarine School and at the U.S. Naval Post- graduate School in Monterey, California. In 1971 Mr. Smith retired from the Navy and enrolled at the University of Rhode Island to continue his educational career. By 1975 he had earned both a Bachelor’s degree in Business Adminis- tration as well as his Master’s Degree in Business Education. His academic excellence is demonstrated by the fact that he was inducted into three honor societies at this time. During all this activity Mr. Smith, with the help of his wife, has raised three daughters and a son, and is now the proud grandfather of three boys. We are grateful for the work Mr. George Smith has done for us at Narragansett High School. We will always be appreciative of his compassion, generosity, and sincerity and w-e hope that he will con- tinue to enrich our school with his time and attention for many years to come. 4 Dear Members of the Class of 1981: A popular quotation came to mind when I was asked to write a few brief lines for your yearbook. It goes as follows: “There are two lasting gifts we can give our children — one is roots, the other is wings. ” As a father of a graduating senior and as a local educator, it is my hope that your experience in Narragansett High has provided you with many rewarding experiences, friendships and a sense of growing self-confidence — the sort of memories and understandings that will last a lifetime and always be a part of you. It is also hoped that you have learned many things about yourself, your abilities, your interests, and your aspirations and are now ready to exercise the independence necessary for responsible adulthood. Best wishes and Godspeed as you begin to use your wings. Sincerely, WILLIAM R. HOLLAND Superintendent of Schools 5 Dear Graduates, Among the firsts at Narragansett High School, the Class of 1981 is the first graduating class to have spent all six of their secondary years at this school. On reflection, one realizes that you have lived one third of your life within the influence of Narragansett High. It is my hope that during these past six years you have gained a sense of your own worth and a feeling of concern for your fellow citizens. As you disperse to many different life careers, take with you the thought that the faculty of the school and citizens of this town have cared about you and are proud of you. We look forward with hope for successful and productive lives for all of you. Sincerely, JEROME R. MCARTHY Principal 6 MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1981 The decade of the 1980’s will reflect the social values of the school graduates of the 1960’s and the 1970’s. However, succeeding decades will be molded by the values and ideals found by the Class of 1981. Both an immediate and long range responsibility of the members of the class of 1981 should be to establish a personal social consciousness towards the key issues of our times. Your futures will be the product of collective attitudes. Good luck in all your endeavors. Sincerely, TODD D. FLAHERTY Assistant Principal 7 Having walked through the blue and orange halls of £ Narragansett High for six years, the Class of ’81 is the first class to complete junior and senior high school here. It is taking its final exit from the school doors this spring. Our class has produced the most outstanding j array of athletes, scholars, and statesmen ever to gradu- ate from Narragansett. We have grown devoted to our school and its faculty and administration during the past six years. They have been a part of all our memories that remain enhanced in our minds forever. Everything from victory rides and wild parties in the Fall, cramming the night before exams, searching frantically for prom dates, and getting dressed up as Coneheads for Charac- ter Day all remain vividly clear in our hearts. Who can forget the Class of ‘81 in our Freshman year,™ newly organized and full of spirit under Mr. Gallman’s control? You can still hear our cries and cheers echoing in the gym from pep rallies long ago. Led by Sue Hinck- ley as president, Mac McGilvery as vice-pres., Terry O’Neill as secretary, Matt Aitkenhead as treasurer, and John Millen and Doris Constantinides as Student Coun- cil representatives, our class held various successful functions. Our Seventh Grade Initiation Ceremony was an attempt to orient the younger students to Narragan- sett High and make them feel comfortable at the same time, without getting trampled on by oncoming seniors. This become a freshman tradition, while our Sadie Haw- kins became a Class of ’81 event, looked forward to annually. Our most rewarding activity all year was sell- ing visors to all. Our sophomore year’s most outstanding accomplish- ment was our Homecoming float. The lighthouse, a maj- estic tower that took hours of devoted attention to com- plete, reflected the pride we have in Narragansett. Our class officers were Pres. Michelle Dodge, V.P. — Amy- White, secretary — Kathy Holland, treasurer Robin Aiello, and Student Council representatives John Millen and Doris Constantinides. In our sophomore year we also began our trips to the elementary school with Santa and his elves passing out candy and X-mas spirit. 10 Our Junior year started off with our class elections. Our class officers were Pres. Terry O’Neill, V.P. Donna Lavimodiere, treasurer — Tim Clays, secretary — Kathy Holland, and Student Council reps. Jane Carter and Michelle Dodge. The first thrill of the year was the purchase of our class rings. We proudly displayed them for weeks, proving that we were officially upperclass- men. Santa Burroughs visited the elementary school along with his cute elves, and by then pre-prom paranoia had begun. Prom talk began with everyone concerned about who was going with whom and what the prom would be like after months of anticipation. The night of May 16 was heavenly, with “Wishing On A Star” as our theme. Everyone looked elegant and we all walked around with stars in our eyes. The Junior Variety Show, “All That Jazz”, was the final performance of the Class of ’81 in our Junior year. It was extremely entertaining and nobody will ever erase the picture from their minds of the Junior class on stage singing, We don’t need no education, we don’t need no thoughts controlled”, with every sign of anger and emotion they could muster up. We have a feeling our Senior year will be truly unfor- gettable. “Senioritis” is apparent walking down “senior hall” and listening to the conversations oriented towards the seniors concerning SAT’s, colleges, and research paper. We have numerous projects coming up this year, such as our Santaland, Valentine’s Dance, Senior Prom, and of course . . . Graduation Day. Our Senior class offi- cers are Pres. Matt Aitkenhead, V.P. Jeff Krul, Secre- tary Michelle Dodge, Treasurer John Carlone, and Stu- dent Council reps. Sue Hinckley and Terry O’Neill. The final farewell will be forthcoming in June, but will never forget the valuable friendships and experiences we have all had together. Years from now we will all meet again — same faces — different people inside — for there remains a world out there to be discovered and so much to be seen. Au-revoir ... The Class of 1981 had no difficulty in deciding to whom they would dedicate the Senior section of the yearbook. We have decided to honor our two faithful and inspiring advisors, Mr. Ulysses Gallman and Mr. Edgar Brown. At the beginning of our freshman year, Mr. Gallman helped us start our first class council. His enthusiasm and vivaciousness excited and encouraged us to try many activities with great success. Dances, which everyone looks forward to, were one of the most important fund raisers of our class. We will be forever indebted to Mr. Gallman, who is teacher by day and disc jockey by night. He has played the music for most of our dances and without him, our dances would not have been as successful. In our junior year, Mr. Brown, much to the delight of the class, became our advisor. With him came many new ideas for continuing the success of our class. Mr. Brown, an experienced teacher, was indespensable in helping us organize the annual junior class Variety Show, as well as the Junior and Senior Proms. To both of these men we owe our sincere thanks and appreciation and hope that they enjoyed guiding us as much as we enjoyed learning from them. 12 The senior Class Council had many great ideas to make our senior year the best. In 1981 we were led by Matt Aitkenhead — President, Jeff Krul — Vice President, John Carlone — Treasurer, and Michelle Dodge - Secretary. Together, with the rest of the members of the council, they held many activities, such as our first Christmas Dance, the annual Christmas time visit by “Santa Claus” to the elementary school, bake sales, a spaghetti supper, and the unforgettable Senior Prom in Newport. The Prom, which requires planning, telephoning, and luck, was a memorable evening for all that we will never forget. The Class of 1981 has had a most productive and educational four years at Narragansett High. Our class advisors, Mr. Gallman and Mr. Brown, the administration, the teachers, and the seniors, themselves, have all helped the graduating class to be one which will be remembered by all. 16 SENIORS Edward Allen Jonna Avella Terry L.

It was held at the Quidnesset Country Club on a lovely spring evening. May 16,1980. The preparation for the big night for months prior to the event brought everyone to an excited peak of both nervousness and anticipation. The girls had fussed for hours in choosing their gowns while the boys had to take care of renting tuxedos and matching flowers to their date’s dresses. Finally, the enchanting evening began. Compliments circulated in the foyer while pic- tures were snapped away as momentos and pre-prom paranoia was forgotten in the night’s splendor. The band “Malloi” provid- ed the evening’s musical entertainment with assorted tunes while everyone ate a delicious meal. The delightful dreams of prom night reflected upon for months were finally becoming a reality. 46 The prom court was soon announced consisting of: Colleen O’Donnell, Kathy Holland, Lori Kapinos, Patty Mancini, Terry Allen, and Wendy Hermes, who selected the red rose, thus being crowned Junior Prom Queen. Everyone proceeded to dance the night away, with “Wishing On A Star” by Rose Royce as the prom theme. It was a sorrowful moment indeed when twelve o’clock rolled around and everyone had to leave the Club. The heavenly evening was far from over for many of us though. Parties were abundant and well attended as well as private haunts in and around town. The memories of that unforgettable night will not escape our thoughts for years to come. However, we know that this year’s Senior Prom to be held at the Sheraton-Islander in Newport on June 9,1981, will be just as exhiliarating as last year’s prom ...

They had one of the better floats in the Homecoming Game. Their bake sales and sale of Christmas stockings helped to raise funds for the class of “84”. Their future plans and major goal is to provide different and more creative types of activities.

With the direction and assistance of Mr. Hilley, their advisor, they have presented the 7th and 8th graders with many activities. Fall elections placed Stephanie Cicilline as President, Robert Mignanelli as Vice President, Darcie Shuman as Treasurer, and Anthony Richards as Secretary. Assemblies sponsored by the Council included very competitive street hockey games and also a grueling backgammon tournament. Among the social events were two very successful dances. Although most of the Council will be graduating from •Jr. High, and going on to High School, many members will be returning next year with their experience to help the new members develop into leaders. 66 Eighth Graders Show Pizzazz Viswanath Akella Hanna Aldrich Elizabeth Allen Jeffrey Alves Claudia Aushander Susan Baccari Christine Bailey Maria Beatrice John Bentre Robert Bood Donna Boudreau April Bourbonnais Catherine Brooks Stephen Brownell David Caprio Linda Cardeli Dean Carlone Kelly Carmody Kristen Carr Michelle Carter Karen Chalifoux Lisa Christofaro Stephanie Cicilline John Cinquegrana Frank Como Howard Conley Brian Conlin Kristine Connery Pamela Cook Sue Cook Gretchen Cunninghar Jennifer Davey Lindalee Davis Tara Delodzia Joseph DeSantis Clint Downey Laurie Dragon Michael England Robin Enloe Harold Everett Toni Everett Thomas Farrell David Gallagher Eric Gilbert 67 John Giramma Carlos Girardi Mike Girardi Steve Goederies Dawn Gould Jennifer Griffin Terry Handrigan John Hart Robert Heidersbach David Hempe Geoffrey Hewitt John Hickey Kelly Holcombe Trade Hunt Mathew Huntly Kim lemma Paul Indeglia Andrea Lawrence Leslie Law John Leeming Sean Lenahan Christine Lennon Erick Lindewall Jennifer Laufflin Trissa Luzzi Mike Marchetti Steve Martel Daron McConnell Beth McDermott Scott Mceneaney John McGilfrey Pat McMann Suzanne Menard Steven Mollo Christopher Moore Jimmy Mulkehy Kenneth Munroe Paula Nason Michelle Nicoll Dan Nolan Thomas Northup Kerry Oldham John Panzica Melissa Partridge John Pearson Peter Pecuraro Heather Petri Hollis Petri Leslie Petrone Jeffrey Piccoli Christopher Poirier Noelle Provost 68 Frank Pulito Martin Revens Douglas Ricci •lames Russo Kathryn Sands Cynthia Saaw Darcy Shuman Eddie Sylvia Sabrina Sixma Mathew Smith Steve Smith Michael Souza Sean Stanton Stephen Stearns Debbie Suggs John Sullivan Sean Sullivan Susan Theriault David Turco Louis Valentino Keith Vellone Lynn Verrier Christine Walpole Jennifer Walsh Justin Walsh Russel Wheeler Ronald Woiick Frederick Wright Kai Yu Christine Zanella Jimmy Zeurcher 69 John Abrahamson Kevin Allen Peter Alter Jennifer Amoroso Aaron Arnold Debbie Baffaro Michael Baker Norman Beauregard Kristen Benoit Homer Blake LeeAnn Blankenship Traci Bolander Matthew Brown Kerry Buchanan Melissa Buonanno James Burns Susan Camp Vincent Carvalho Gavin Casey Kim Chalifoux Cecile Chirchester Amy Clark Beth Clark Miles Cogswell David Cohen Jess Conrad Greg Cunningham Matthew Davis Russell Degideo Kelly Degnan Stephen Degroote Sherrianne Dexter Adam Diaz Christopher Dillon Kimberly Disalvo Patrick Donnelly Sean Donnelly David Downs Joseph Drezek Doug Downs Jeanne Dunn Lisa Edwards Brian Fagan Alison Falk Brian Ferrare Todd Flynn Gina Foizey Robert Freestone Victor Gaboury Robert Gallucci Chris Genereux Peter Giuliano Steven Goldereis Jennifer Goldstein Steven Gordon Kristen Hargraves John Harrison Krista Heidersbach Aaron Houle Eric Howe Allana Huit Vincent Hull Christine Kim Steven Krul Michael Langer Roger Leeming Steven I eeming Dawn Letourneau Eric Long Christopher MacDuff Arwen MacPhee Michaela McGuire 71 Timothy Maguire Martha Manning Mark Maranci Sharon Martel Robert Mathieu Christopher McCarthy Laurie McCormick Scott McDonough William McGraw Eileen McGuire David McKendry Anne McNaughton Heather Menard Robert Mignanelli Tina Millen Billy Mitchell Mark Morancy Mark Morrison Chris Mossey Melissa Mulcahey Melissa Nathaniels Patricia Newbold Darryl Nitschke Karen Oldham Adrian Owens Johnathan Owens Joseph Paglia Ann Panzica Andrea Pecoraro Michelle Pellstier Robert Phelps Stacy Piccoli Deborah Pinkos David Plouffe Julie Potter Kimberly Poyton Martha Pulito Joe Radkiewich Patrick Reardon Ellen Reynolds Anthony Richards Shelly Ritacco Michael Roberts Michael Roberts Kerri Sahagian Jessica Sandel Diane Sanford Jill Shelly Joseph Sawyer Robert Shola Steven Skuce Carlene Sliney John Smith Risa Smith Roland Smith Timothy Smith Christina Snell Donald Souza James Speights Susan Sprague 72 Kelly Stephenson Neil Stuart Kristine Sullivan Patricia Sumner Geoffrey Suprenant Robert Taylor Marsha Thayer Alfred Tingley Christine Trillo Jamie Trillo James Tshudy Matthew Turco Dana Varrechione Todd Verrechia Deon Walmsley Paul Webb Not Pictured: Richard Adams Tina Hopkins James Iasimone Joe Lennon Wendy Naysnerski Robert Walls Kerri Wholey Martin Wiliford 73 74 Faculty Zeus ... leading god of Olympus; center of community; the supreme ruler and maintainer of moral order Hail, the Chiefs!

Vice-President: Mark Needham The new B-52’s? YAD SDRAWKCAB This year’s Student Council started off with a bang. September meant campaigning for office. The election returns found Susan Hinckley in the Presidential seat, Mark Needham in the Vice-Presidency, Stephanie Huckins as Recording Secretary, Jane Carter as Treasurer, and Amy White as Cor- responding Secretary. The Welcome back dance put everyone in a good mood, an- ticipating a fun year. Another annual celebration, Homecoming, was a success, especially when the four beautiful floats encircled the field where the football team was humiliating North Smithfield. The celebrating continued that night at the jubilant Homecoming dance. Something new was added to our activities in Nov., when we conducted a canned food drive against S.K. Students throughout the school donated all sorts of food, which was then delivered to the South County Community Action, Inc. We were not quite as successful as “the enemy”; however, it was a first of hopefully a long line of generosity. Heart Fund Sunday proved interesting as student volunteers went door to door ask- ing for donations. An attempt to add school spirit to the hearts of both the students and the faculty was made when a movie was rented from the R.I. Student Council. “Together” was an inspirational film which kicked off many other school activities. This council had it’s “ups and downs” but with the help of a few additions to the constitution, next year’s council should have a great time! A Tribute to “Pan” — Yearbook Work Is Chaotic The 1981 Maritimes staff did a stupendous job in completing a book that will be a fond reminder of Narragansett High School for years to come. The staff was dedicated in this time consuming effort; The 1981 yearbook staff was represented by grades 9 through 12, and although many were inexperienced, they caught on quickly. This year’s book has more pictures and less ads, thanks to Peter McHenry, who worked hard as business manager to deliver our school more for their money.” In addition, a unique feature of our staff is that it is continually “torn into so many directions because of the many diverse talents of the members — our thanks to Terry O’Neill and all the hard effort contributed by our 23 member crew. Maritimes 1981 is a book written by a commit- ted group; however, we attempt to represent everyone in our school. Good-bye Seniors, and thanks Mrs. Phillips!!! The Press Rolls On The Compass is Narragansett High School’s student newspaper. It publishes articles, photos, poems, complaints, and anything else students wish to submit. This year’s editor, Maureen Grady, along with the advisor. Mr. Kimball, worked hard to put all these together into a newspaper. But the Compass needs your help. It’s your contributions that make it a newspaper. In recent years it has been suggested that newspaper and yearbook production be a credit course. This would be an excellent chance for a student to learn about journalism, and would make both more of a learning ex- perience instead of a chore. Photograph editor. Brian Falvey The typist, Michelle Dillon National Honor Society In June of 1981, fourteen juniors were inducted into the National Honor Society. These students were chosen because of their outstanding academic averages and their participation in extra- curricular activities. Under the guidance of Dr. Jeffrey Champlin this group of students, now seniors, have helped out in the learning center as aides. They are: Amy White, Doris Constantinides, Paula Marcac- cio, Tim Clays, Michelle Dodge, Maureen Grady, Terry O’Neil, Mike Jordan, Kathy Holland, Mathew Aitkenhead, Joy Russo, and Stephen McCaffery. 95 Project “Close-Up” is a fantastic journey into the exciting political and cultural worlds surrounding Washington D.C. You visit famous sites in Washington, including the Capitol, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, and Arlington Cemetery. You also have the opportunity to tour some of the lesser known, but extremely interesting places in the area, including the FBI building, the National Archives, and Georgetown University. Your trip consists not only of sight- seeing, but listening to and questioning many influential leaders and political experts. Additionally, it is an opportunity to meet people of your own age with the same interests and hopefully create some long-lasting friend- ships. This year we were fortunate to go with many students from R.I. so we were able to keep in close touch. Close-Up is an experience not to be missed!

It is a process that begins in September with the researching, writing, and re-writing of bills, legislation that we feel is especially important to our state and community. These bills are then sent to the “mock legislature, which is held in February, where they are fought over in committee, discussed on the floor of the House and Senate, and then hopefully, passed with flying colors. Model Legislature often acts as a nice way to meet people from all over the state and work with them in improving our surroundings. It’s a great chance for students interested in government to test themselves in the political arena.

Art Park is a day at Narragansett High School to show the students, teachers, and community how the Arts are related to every area in life. The Art Department displayed photographs, pottery, and plants, while a visiting rock band and the school’s jazz and concert bands performed, and ex- hibits of Shop, Home Economics, movies, and other projects were shown throughout the building. The Art Department created a unique experience which will not be soon forgotten. “Who’s next?” “How’d you get so funky?” “So what are you doing May 1?” “Oh baby!” “Who’s that little girl?” 103 I wish they’d stop watching me.

Spirit Week events drew upon the entire student body to contribute. So when Friday finally came, everybody was ready to give their team all the support they needed to lead them to an easy victory over North Smithfield. Students planned their costumes far in advance for Spirit Week and were all prepared for the week’s events. The week’s special days were 50’s Day, Backward’s Day, New Wave Day and Red and White Day, followed by a Friday afternoon pep rally. Wrong Day! 108 Spirit Week Leads We are living mistakes. Us to Victory . .. No wonder teachers go buggy! 109 Homecoming Week ended spectacularly with the football team beating North Smithfield 23 to 0. As the Spirit Week activities came to a close, Terry Allen was chosen as our Homecoming Queen. The week of festivities ended with a very successful Homecoming Dance. Our thanks to the Student Council for making this Homecoming a memorable one. Court Members: Donna Lavimodiere, Terry Allen, Colleen O’Donnell, Donna Garlick, Monique Savoie, and Stephanie Huckins. 110 The Mariner Marching Band displaying their colorful uniforms to pep rallies, football games, and parades, dazzled everyone. Under the direction of Mr. Cifelli, and led down the field by Paula Marcaccio, the Mariner Majorette, the group marched proudly in their newly purchased uniforms. The thirty piece band sounds were much appreciated as they rallied on the spectators and the players. 112 The concert band this year did many new and interesting things. The band once again sold cheese and sausage to raise money for later in the year followed by a very successful spring dance in March. Finally to top off the year the band did the first ex- change concert traveling to New York for a weekend in April.

The choir par- ticipated in two concerts this year, the Christmas concert, and the Spring concert. Both concerts were a great success, due to the skilled director, Paul Hutchins, and the talented students. Also, those outstand- ing students that qualified, par- ticipated in All-State choir. 119 Athletics Heracles ... the Greek hero, the favorite son of Zeus; the strongest man who ever lived. 121 Mariners Make Championship Bottom, 1st Row, Left to Right: Tim Clays, John Millen, John Timpson. 2nd Row, Left to Right: Mike Sprague, Vinnie Varrechione, Steve McNiff, Jeff Woodmansee, Steve Zwick, Brian Turnbull, Mike Prin9, Bob McNiff, David Cunningham, Brian Vanley. 3rd Row, Left to Right: David Lineham, Dale Clifford, Bruce Nathaniel, Bob Sekator, Peter Blessing, Chet Duff, Ronald Oshberg, Andy Nota, Kevin Conlin, Brian Rawlings, Mark Shuman, Brad Cup- pies. 4th Row: Kevin Griffin, Mike Sherman, Dave Ferraro, Brian Timpson, Mike Griffin, Pater Clays, David Webb, Mark Kearney, and Tom Bartolomeo. 123 1980 proved to be the most exciting year for the Nar- ragansett Mariners. Head coach Jim Zepp and assistant coaches Todd Flaherty, and Mike Chadwick coached the mighty mariners to a 11-0 victory and then headed the mariners into the Class BB Championship. Unfortunately, this was the Mariner’s 1st loss, 16-20. Six mighty Mariners were chosen to be in the “All-league”. Receiving these honors were seniors: Steve Zwick, Vinnie Varrechione, Tim Clays, Mike Prins, John Millen, and junior: Mike Wallace. Tim Clays also received the honors of “Coaches’ All-State” and “Journal Bulletin All-State”. Additionally, Vinnie Varrechione was honored by the “Journal Bulletin All- State”.

Coach Irene Hyland Capt’s. Michelle Palumbo and Terry O’Neill It wasn’t a rock ... It was a ROCK LOBSTER!! The Girls Tennis team finished the season with another outstanding record of 12-0. This is the first time in the history of the school that any sport has had a winning streak of 24 straight games. We began the season with a tough act to follow. Having won every match last year, we were concerned with being able to main- tain our undefeated record, but with our new coach Mrs. Hyland and the spectacular performance of all the girls, our concern was un- necessary. We did have some very tough matches though, especially against the Warwick Vets team, winning both times with a close 4- 3 score. Next year, unfortunately, the team will lose nine seniors, but the talent of the underclassmen will certainly bring us an exciting and victorious season next year. 127 Running is one of the oldest forms of physical competition. The ancient Greek’s most important Olympic event was the Marathon. From this grueling race, the Cross-Country team gets its roots. Because of a rising interest in soccer, the Cross-Country team was almost eliminated from the 1980 season; However, because of the loyal supporters of Cross-Country, the team was reinstated as a co-ed team for the 1980 season. The School Com- mittee will consider the continuation of a Cross-Country team in future years. This year was a very successful year due to the expert coaching of Ed Gray. Though the team was hampered by numerous injuries, an excellent performance, including a key victory over rival North Kingstown, was achieved. The Cross-Country team hopes that through our efforts of the past season, the sport may be reinstated as an integral part of the sports program. What do you want? We’re Seniors! It must be broken, I ran faster than that! Cross Country Is Hopeful... This is fun? 129 Girls Soccer — on the Move Front Row, L to R: Karen Wronoski, Jean Rossi, Margie Dodge, Aimee Surprenant, Wendy Broome, Andrea Morrison, Kerri Bivona, Debra Genereux, Sue French, Rhonda Carlone.

The Narragansett Girl’s Soccer team completed another successful season for its second year in competition, with a record of 8-3-3. The team was lead by the excellent coaching of Richard Adham and by their tri-captains Kathy Holland, Colleen O’Donnell, and Joy Russo. The season was filled with hard work and excitement which resulted in a winning season. One of the team’s highlights was the “first annual soccer night” at Sprague Field, where the Mariner’s defeated Wheeler 1-0. Next year the team is going to feel the loss of six graduating seniors; Joy Russo, Kathy Holland, Mary Lou Farrell, Cooleen O’Donnell, Virginia Dawley, and Kim Dietrick. However, the girls are determined to come back with more experience and enthusiasm in having a better season than ever before. 131 'I feel so masculine in these shorts!” Boys’ Soccer Kicks Off First Year Sitting: Dave Archambault, Chris Stevenson, Bill Harrison, Dan Orsini, Majid Ashtari, Kurt Niles, Forrest Cary.

The 1980 Fall Sports Curriculum added a new dimension to the program; a boys soccer team. The 21 member team followed the advice of their coach, Tom Ashley. Throughout each of their 18 games, the team demonstrated their outstanding dedication. The qualities of Dean Harrison and Willis Kim were much appreciated as they defended the Narragansett goal. At the end of the season, Bill Harrison earned a forward position on the All- Division first team. Next year, the team will be missing the assistance of the graduating seniors; Dennis Hughes, Steve Ricci, and Forrest Cary; but the remaining players are eager and look forward to their next season. Coach Ashley 132 133 A Team to Be Reckoned With The Mariners, once thought to be the League door- mat, are now considered a prime power in the league. It took a lot to live up to last year’s fine 18-4 season, but the Mariners did it. “League-leading” Ponagansett came to Narragansett expecting an easy win. But what they got was the closest game of their season. The Mariners held them to within 1 point for most of the game. Guiding this year’s team are coach Steve Chadwick, and captains Tim Clays and Peter Podedworny. I told you, the other basket... 134 I swear I didn’t touch her! That’s easy for you to say.

Under captains Jane Carter and Nancy Sprague, the girls were an enthusiastic boost to the entire season. 136 Jr. High Basketball — A Great Future The Captains This year’s Jr. Mariners have put Narragansett on the map in the Jr. High league. Coach Tom Ashley, guided the team to a winning season and a possible playoff spot. Two of their losses were by only one point. The Jr. High Girl’s Mariners shouldn’t be forgotten either. The girls also had an excellent season, finishing with a winning record. Coach McKenna did a great job in building the team into a league power. 137 Bottom to Top: Lisa Christafaro, Karen Chalifoux, Kelly Carmody, Pam Cook, Stacey Piccoli, Kelly Stephenson, Ann McNorton, Jamie Trillo, Gretchen Cunningham, Kathy Brooks, Beth Allen, Michelle Carter.

To most, it would seem as though the girls had a bad year. This; however, is not so, for the girls broke the team’s historic record; This was their first year out of the cellar. They placed fifth in their league. Mr. Bob Anderson experienced coaching a girl’s team for the first time. The girls initiated him into his new job with the help of the locker room showers. Junior Varsity’s winning season will prove important to the success of next year’s team since ten members will be returning. 139 The Mariners Have a In ancient Greece, the wrestling match was considered a necessary event for any athletic competition. The test of each wrestler, pitting strength against strength, was always ex- citing to watch. The same still holds true in modern times. The Mariners have upheld this tradition in their ’80-’81 season. The Mariners have compiled another outstanding record for this season. Several of the Mariners have also made All-State. Although five experienced wrestlers will be graduating this year, the Mariners are looking forward to another successful season in ’82.

Divisional meet) In ancient Greece, track and field events were the ultimate tests of an athlete’s abilities and endurance. The Mariners learned the full meaning of this through their first year of interscholastic competition. The Mariners put forth a fine showing in their division, and had several team members qualify for the Class Meet, held at McCoy Stadium.

Southern Division Champions.” From there they went on to achieve further excellence by competing in the State Championship, where they took second place. Special mention should also be given to Michelle Dodge, Joy Russo, Sue Zwick and Patty Monteith. Michelle made “All State” and was voted “Most Valuable Player — All South County”. Joy and Sue made Second Team All State” Patty Monteith was voted the team’s “Most Valuable Player” and all four girls made “All Division”.

Victory Results The boys 1980 tennis team had a very successful season under the leadership of coach Hyland and the team Captain Scott Denelle. Mrs. Hyland had a great disadvantage compared to most coach’s — she spoke mainly French and this was her first year teaching tennis to a high school team in the U.S. The season record was a solid ten wins and two losses, highlighted by victories over South Kingstown and West Warwick. Scott Denelle was awarded the title of “Most Valuable Player” for 1980 season, not only for his contribution to the team record, but also for the sense of responsibility he demonstrated throughout the season. The Mariners will undoubtedly miss the fine performances of seniors Glen Babich, Scott Denelle and Scott Burns. Top Six Players 1. Glen Babich 2. Joe Cohen 3. Scott Denelle 4. Dale Denelle 5.

Laura Turgeon Barbara Hull Volleyball If there were ever a prize for a team that enjoyed what it did, this year’s volleyball team would take high honors. From practice sessions (some against cooperative senior boys), through numerous season matches, and despite many nail-biting bus rides, this stalwart group exhibited great stamina, and claims to have had a tremendous time! The very high-spirited team, captained by Sue Hoyt, and coached by Louise DeGrass, gathered many moments of personal satisfaction, not the least of which was the triumph of defeating arch-rivals from Prout three times out of four!

In fact, they sported a fine record of 7 wins and 5 losses. Besides the victory over South Kingstown, the squad squelched Johnston, top-seeded team in the state! The varsity team was very clearly led by captain Gary Curhan, who was named Number One All Class C! Coach Marie Kojian, a familiar face to those who attended the junior high school in past years, promptly won the admiration and respect of this very successful varsity team, for her sharp insight and watchful persistence. Eric Barszcz Coach Poirier lays out the strategy during Chariho game. Softball Sporting a fine 6-4 record, the Mariner softball team has been one of the most successful Narragansett varsity squads yet. Coach Dave Poirier and Co- Captains Lori Mcader and Fran Sherman led this dynamic team to a second- place tie, in a race for the championship that went right down to the very last game, against a strong Chariho team. The girls, competing in a relatively new interscholastic sport, found that the excellent Little League Softball program had provided a strong foundation. Freshman Pat Monteith filled the all-important post of pitcher very capably, and sophomore Kelley Cronin led the team in batting. Besides defeating the many division teams, our girls proved themselves competitors in any league: they defeated the South County Merchants, an American Softball Association team, in May, for which a trophy has been awarded to the school.

Who struggled against the handicaps of inexperience and the limitations of a small student body? Our Mariners! Who kept up a high spirit and fought through so many close games? Our Mariners, of course! Captain Pat Creamer and Coach A1 Christopher were instrumental in keeping things going, despite the disappointment of those early season losses. An optimistic team throughout the season, the Mariners earned the satisfaction of defeating first-place and undefeated Chariho in what was undeniably the upset of the season. Pitcher Herb Reslock, who also had the highest batting average for the team, was nominated to the Southern Division All-Star team. The first and only home run yet to be hit out of Sprague Park came off the bat of senior Bob Rattcnni. Pat Creamer KNEELING (1. tor.) - G. Kirwan. M. Eldridge. D. Shields. J. Clays. R. Shields. P.

With a cast, chorus, and crew of nearly forty people, this project required endless hours of time as lines were memorized, songs were learned, and dances were choreographed. People who had never even tried to dance before suddenly learned how to tap dance in less than two months, as costumes were hurriedly sewn and sets were precariously nailed. Eventually, everything was put together and the N.H.S. stage came alive with such classic songs as Tea for Two and I Want to Be Happy.

So, on May 18, the Class of '77 presented The Senior Revue (admission price: 77 cents). Emceed by Gary Curhan, the show contained such incredible acts as Samurai Librarian, Who Done It and To Tell the Truth, starring Robert A. Petro. The show was fun for everyone involved and we hope to have created an annual tradition. RREVUESENIORREVUESENIORREVUESENIORREV Kiss Today Goodbye As we all began to realize that our high school life was almost over, we came to another milestone - the Senior Prom. Held on June 10 at the Cranston Hilton, the prom featured music by Windbourne, and our theme, Kiss Today Goodbye,'’ reflected the sadness we all felt, knowing that it was one of the last times we would be together. But more importantly, the prom was a very happy occasion, especially for our prom queen, Maureen McGuire. Other members of the court were Christie Denelle, Cheryl Handrigan, Jeanne Poirier and Robin Schmitt. The prom was over only too soon, but our memories will always remain.
