contents In memory of Mr. Bill O'Brien, whose constant understanding, warm smile, and sound counsel supported so many of us at North Haven, we, the senior class of 1974 dedicate our yearbook. Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star 9 • And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game. seniors We've walked both sides of every street. And through all kinds of windy weather. But that was never our defeat. As long as we could walk together. So there's no need for turning back, Because all roads lead to where we stand. And I believe we'll walk them all. No matter what we may have planned. Submitted by: Constance M. Culliney Pamela Ann Dunn There is a child to be born He is an infinite sea that knows no bounds.

Submitted by Ruth Gould A WORK OF ARTIFICE The Bonzai Tree in the attractive pot could have grown eighty feet tall on the side of the mountain till split by lightning. But a gardener carefully pruned it. It is nine inches high. Everyday as he whittles back the branches, the gardener croons. It is your nature to be small and cozy, domestic and weak, how lucky, little tree, to have a pot to grow in. With living creatures one must begin very early to dwarf their growth: the bound feet, the crippled brain, the hair in curlers, the hands you love to touch. Marge Piercy Submitted by Kathleen Keefe My aunt I no ... once said to me, when I was desperately lonely and blue, that our life is like a land journey, too even and easy and dull over long distances across the plains, too hard and painful up the steep grades; but, on the summits of the mountain, you have a magnificent view — and feel exalted — and your eyes are full of happy tears — and you want to sing - and you wish you had wings! And then — you can't stay there but must continue your journey — you begin climbing down the other side, so busy with your footholds that your summit experience is forgotten. Submitted by Sue Hoyt The man that hath no music in himself nor is moved with concord of sweet sounds is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.

Elected co-captains of the 1974 team, Ann and Mary Jean led their teammates to still more victories. Senior Denise Massini consistently contributed her points, particularly in vaulting, while sophomore Lisa McCafferty contributed points in all four events. The girls on the Gymnastic Team deserve praise for their continued dedication and success this year under their new coach, Arlene Burke. Gymnastics.

Four of the team's members: Scott Fisher, Peter Benda, David Alpert, and John LaViolette, participated in the C.I.A.C. Tournament. They set new standards in tennis at North Haven which future teams promise to continue. GIRL'S TRACK AND FIELD For the past two years, the North Haven Girls's Track Team has held the State Championship Title. The combination of coach Lauren Andersen, who was twice selected Coach of the Year , and such taleted team members as Jackie Cipollini, Pam Kinsella, Mary Jean Luppi, and Denise Massini has made the school's largest girl's interscholastic squad so very successful. It is the team's spirit and hard work which has made each member a State Champion. 178 I asked God for strength. That I might achieve I was made weak, That I might humbly obey. I asked for health. That I might do greater things I was given infirmity, That I might do better things. I asked for riches. That I might be happy I was given poverty. That I might be wise. I asked for power, That I might have the praise of men I was given weakness. That I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things. That I might enjoy life I was given life. That I might enjoy all things. I got nothing I asked for, but everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered I am among all men Most richly blessed. submitted by Deborah Lynn Hatch. Breathe deep the gathering gloom. Watch lights fade from every room.

Officers: Eric Brown. Les Gingell, Billy Goward. Nancy Mendillo. Robbie Meyer Yf This year, the Ski Club had little luck with the ski conditions, but was financially prepared to take several all-day trips to Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont. They started the year by selling candy, and also by holding a highly successful car wash. The money raised each year by such activities is used to reduce the cost of transportation and lift tickets for all members of the club. In addition to lowering the cost of skiing, the club's purpose is to give its members access to a wide variety of ski areas. The Ski Racing Team was initiated this year in an attempt to exploit some of North Haven's skiing talent and widen the school's sports spectrum. It may presently be one of the most talented teams in the school. Each skier has racing experience, some in such places as Chamonix, France, Kitzenbuhl, Austria, Snow Bird. Utah, and local places such as Loon Mt., New Hampshire. It is our expressed hope that underclassmen will attempt to keep this team going in future years. Kirt Barker. Eric Brown.

Through its study, students can enhance their appreciation of all the arts and become particularly aware of the communicative potential of the instrument of dance: the body. The Modern Dance Club assists students in discovering movement as a medium for the expression and development of ideas. Each dancer evolves her own ways of moving, extends her perceptions of space, rhythm, design, quality and style, learns to think, feel and move freely, develops integrity and sincerity, and grows to appreciate genuine artistic endeavor.

Every Latin student in the school is a member and all activities are related to the study and appreciation of the Roman and Greek civilizations. In the past few years, activities have included a trip to Rome, museum excursions to Boston and New York, gravestone rubbing, celebration of the Saturnalia, as well as Roman and Greek dinners and banquets. 192 The officers of the Italian Club are: Michele Schomburg, Patty Stellavato, Gail Vendetto, and Louis Piccirillo. The remaining club members are all students in the Italian classes at the East and West campuses. Ciao, Italian was one of the new languages to enter North Haven High School this year. The Italian Club decided to experiment with the intricacies of the Italian language, culture, and people through field trips to New York and Boston where Italian painting, sculpture and mosaics are displayed, and through spaghetti dinners, where they tasted typically Italian food, and meetings with various Italian people. The ultimate goal of the club is to visit the land and the peoples they have studied. F.I.D.L.E. (pronounced fiddle) is the fledgling foreign language newspaper started just this year by a group of interested language students. It includes articles, word puzzles, comic strips, recipes and class news, all written in the five languages taught in the school. These Languages: French, Italian, German (Deutsch), Latin, and Spanish (Espanol) give the paper its name. The faculty advisor is Mrs. Diamond, and the help of the other language teachers is enlisted when necessary. Although F.I.D.L.E. is new this year, it is already doing a great deal to promote the idea that foreign languages are not simply for classroom use, but also to be enjoyed.

My host family consisted of four people; my parents and two sisters, Maria Amalia, 16, and Maria In6s, 18. Due to the reverse seasons, I arrived in mid-winter and was attending the eleventh grade with Amalia and carrying the normal seventeen course load. I also attended such classes as French, folk dancing, and I taught English classes at a university branch. Living in the heart of the pampas provided an interesting contrast between city and country life in Argentina. I learned to appreciate all the gauchesque folklore and to witness the simplicity and contentment of the people there. No matter where you go in Argentina, you can't help but love the people for their friendliness, vivacity, and pride. They're proud to be Argentines and are very demonstrative and willing to share their numerous folk songs and dances with anyone who shows an interest. Being involved in this program, proved to be the most valuable experience of my life. I learned to understand and communicate in a foreign language and culture, and more important, I formed invaluable relationships within my family and among friends. I am very grateful to A.F.S. for affording me this opportunity. Laurie Hart I'm Lucas Joseph Samomai from Micronesia. I feel that living here in America, especially in this wonderful part, is really great. It is a busy life, but I think I can manage it somehow. The ways of living here are a lot different than the ones I have left at home. This year everyone has been nice to me which I'd say is really very kind of you all. I've made friends with a lot of students at North Haven High. The way I did this is by entering and getting involved in school activities. I'm in A.F.S. Club, Library Club, and on the North Haven Varsity Swim Team. I enjoyed being in the three of them very much. Lucas Samomai 196 Congratulations from North Haven Carvel Ice Cream 101 Washington Avenue The American Field Service Club works to achieve two goals; to have its members attain an awareness and appreciation of other cultures and to develop understanding and friendship within the group. The group has grown considerably in size and consequently in active participation. One of our projects is earning money to send students abroad and therefore, we've had various fund-raising activities. These include dances, bake sales, and the taking of the town census. We've also had an international dinner and Halloween and Valentine's Day parties, which were attended by members, their guests, and foreign students in the area. In recent years we have had several new involvements. We have developed a domestic exchange program where members in our group host another A.F.S. group. This year we had an exchange with Lancaster, Pennsylvania. We have also sponsored speakers; including a Yale student who is an expert in flamenco. Involvement in this group has proven rewarding for each member and has helped to make the year a success. Jennifer Baerman, Dave Ballatto, Dawn Bartlett. Janet Barton.

It was originated in order that North Haven might be represented at the Harvard Model United Nations held in Boston during December. This was a mock United Nations conference made up of delegations from schools all over the country, each representing a separate nation. The goal of the conference was not to try to solve world problems, but rather to encourage students to think in terms of these problems and thus, to increase their awareness of the world situation.

The production of the yearbook seemed a rather large task when we first considered it, and within a short time we were overwhelmed by what appeared an impossible responsibility. Our one consolation was the advice and encouragement which we received from Mr. Dean and Mr. Fiore. Together, they represented one of the single most important factors in making the 1974 SACHEM a reality. 202 Compliments of the H. Pearce Company Realtors 393 State Street Tell me why you're crying, my son, I know you're frightened, like everyone. Is it the thunder in the distance you fear. Will it help if I stay very near: I am here. Do you ask why I'm sighing, my son, You shall inherit what mankind has done. In a world filled with sorrow and woe. If you ask me why this is so, I really don't know. Tell me why you're smiling, my son. Is there a secret you can tell everyone. Do you know more than men that are wise. Can you see what we all must disguise, Through your loving eyes. — P. Yarrow submitted by Bill Sheffield I come from far. I left my home over thousands and thousands of miles away. I came to a strange land, where I was convinced to forget my custom behaviour. I am changed, I am totally changed. I have forgotten to twist my hair the way my mother used to do it. I have grown into a foreign language called English which is strange to my mother. I have forgotten my mother tongue. I am copying everything from this land. Ge! I am lost. I am black, not beautiful, not clever, but an intelligent African girl. I come from a small, poor country named KENYA. It is not as big as U.S.A., but it is by far more beautiful and we are very proud of it. Je! Waona je? HAKILI MOIYE MALI. submitted by Mary Ogindo Against the thick current I was born to find. That among a school of many There's only one of my kind. You're soaked in a smile while I'm flushed with fright, Riding the same wave. Though we differ in wrong and right. Onward I flow through the sea of confusion. Following what I feel. For what I see is an illusion. To possess the Pearl I must try. For the swim is short And my life must die. Submitted by Mary Ann Papa I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes: nor would I be content with converting my tears, invited by my agonized self, into calm. It is my fervent hope that my whole life on this earth will ever be tears and laughter. Tears that purify my heart and reveal to me the secret of Life and its mystery; Laughter that brings me closer to my fellow men; Tears with which I join the broken-hearted: Laughter that symbolizes joy over my very existence.

THE CIRCLE GAME - Joni Mitchell Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragon fly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star. And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game. When the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like, when you're older, must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams. Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to carwheels thru the town And they tell him, take your time it won't be long now. Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down. So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams, and plenty Before the last revolving year is through. 1966 SIQUOMB PUBLISHING CORP All Rights Reserved Used l v permission
