Text from Pages 1 - 172 of the 1978 volume:

CHIEFS 1 As our high school years draw quickly to a close, we pause to give brief recognition to a most important, deserving individual. Although new to Nonnewaug in 1975, she took on the job as our Sophomore class advi- sor. In the three years she has held this posi- tion she has helped us develop as a class as well as individuals. She has watched us laugh and cry, grow and falter, succeed and fail. Yet, she stood by us through the trials and tribulations we have encountered. This wonderful, caring person is our long- time friend, teacher, and advisor: Mrs. Joan Dandurand. The Class of '78 thanks Mrs. Dandurand for her help, advice, and patience. We wish her the best of luck in her future at Nonnewaug High, and hope she will be proud of us as she hears of our achievements later in life.

KAREN ELIZABETH ANDERSON The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one. Let us therefore make the best of our friends while we have them; for how long we shall keep them is uncertain. He that has lost a friend has more cause of joy that he once had him, than of grief that he is taken away. Seneca KEITH ANDERSON 35 DENISE BAILEY Go placidly amid the noise and haste.

Edward Everett Hale 76 Maurice Paul Quesnel Bethel Alice Pierson Science Fiction Club Co-President 3, President 4 Drama Club 2. 3 Computer Club To be different is not to be wrong. To buy something for the only reason Everyone else has one is wrong, as is refraining from doing something you really want to do for the reason that you have never seen anyone else do it before. Don t worry about losing friends if you do something out of the ordinary, for any person who drops you as a friend with such a small excuse was never really your friend at all. Always remember this; it is better to have one very good friend with whom you can trust your deepest secrets than to call everybody a ifriend and nobody lends you a buck.
