The final year for senior does not mean that seniors are the only people in the school It seems that Stacy Leefe cannot manage to smile without closing her eyes. If she smiles often as she goes down the corridor, how does she ovoid walking into other students or even the lockers? During the speeches for the class elections. Maria Pohtano hod to have the microphone adjusted to her height Although she may not be as tall as many of her classmate in stature, she makes up for if u'ifh the fantastic amount of work she puts into all the activities m which she participates At the Science Awards Ceremony held in the au ditonum of the John F Kennedy Presidential Library.

Tg uuvtcAitu?; Being a Senior M dliy people have asked, What's it like being a senior? Or they might have said. You must be psyched. You’re a senior! 1 can't wait until I’m a senior! But what is it like being a senior anyway? Is it being psyched? Is it the party year? Does it mean no more school? To each senior, ’Being A Senior' means something different. Most of all. being a senior means saying good bye to Quincy. For four years, we have been saying, I can't wait! I can’t wait! Just four more years! Each year comes and goes and it is the same line over and over. “I can't wait! I can't wait! But now one comes back for this our final year and it's a whole new attitude. I don't want to leave” or “I’m scared of what the future will bring!” But why the sudden change? Why the new attitude? Quincy High and Voc-Tech look the same. A feww new teachers here and there. but it’s still the same old stuff; sports and homework. So why do we suffer these new feelings? As long as there is a Quincy High and Quincy Vocational Technical School, there will always be memories. Quincy is a part of us, just as we are a part of our schools. We are seniors now and we always will be. That’s the way that everyone will come to remember us, not as the ugly duckling fresh- men. nor as the too smart for our own britches sophomores, nor even as the ne’er do well juniors. The only year we will be remembered for will be our senior year. And as that senior year gets closer and closer to a final end. it means that we will become memories for all the people we have gotten to know. We will have become the Class of 1988, and isn’t that what we always wanted to be anyway? During one of our locker clean outs. Ms Nancy Kelly makes her way back into her room (310) passing waist baskets overflowing u’ilh old homework assignments and the remains of the last M M sale Armsher Johnson also circles around the piles which await remota! by the custodians With the senior class in the background awaiting their election speeches. Stuart Slicis. Jennifer Mulhn. Maria Polita no and Suzanne Shea anxiously contemplate what they will be saying to the class. It uasn't a tough election, most were unopposed for their posts Sometimes students planned on eorty arrival at school in order to benefit from the quiet times of the early morning Catching up on some uncompleted homework assignments were Debbie Thomson and Juhe Munn Thank goodness the heat came on early in the morning or the floors would hove been icy. Intent on the completion of their experiment, measuring the velocity of a moving cart.

'Re£eaic6iity: All Hallow’s Eve it was that time of year again when everyone could dress up and show their true selves. Roaming the corridors were ghosts, vampires and even bunnies and cats. The dev- ilish Tracey Thornhill went around sticking peo- ple with her pitchfork while Nicole Manton was just clowning around trying to make people laugh. Maureen Hennebury was seen dancing in the halls with the rest of her 50’s friends. Searching for a delicious little birdie to sink her chops into was Lisa Triandifolis dressed as Sylvester the Cat. The best Lisa could do however was find a pink bunny named Kathy Cahill. Rick Morris was the typical 1920’s style gangster dressed entirley in black and carrying an automatic water rifle which he used to get revenge on a number of teachers including Mr. Charles Gliniewicz, Mr. John Harrington and Mr. Bruce McDonald. Rick wanted to shuffle Rob Buttomer, the Ace of Spades, and start a poker game in the cafeteria. Lisa Connolly was a cute little cat that trav- elled with dracula, Christine Childers. Tanya Innello was cannibal in search of good eating like pirate Amy Nourse or Indian Leanne Peter- son. Beth Vacca, a safari guide hunted the likes of Heather Shanahan, a cat. There were also some cute sights like senorita Maria Politano, elf Lori Swanton and even devil Dawn Hartnett. Jennifer Fay, a football player dressed in Sean Munroe’s uniform (Surprise!) helped Sharon Goodman, a tube of Crest, tackle the cavity creeps. Jim Kimmell, acting like a true priest, tried to reform punk, Marion Miller. Dr. Jack Me« rill asked maids Lauren McNamara and Roberta DiTullio to clean his room, but they replied, “We don’t do windows!” Laurie Woodford was the vampire who kept trying to locate the perfect neck to bite. It was Scoot Logan dressed as Freddy Kruger who found her first though. Kristen McGhee was another ghostly sight and wih Mr. John Scanlan, another dracula spooked everyone in the halls on the second floor. Julie Munn was a green-faced witch trying to fly her broom from class to class. Mark Wisnes was a fearsome gorilla. Sometimes he removed the mask to escape the heat of his costume and became even more scary. As another Halloween passed into memory, the yearbook staff handed out awards to those ghouly characters who came to the Q.M.C. to be judged at 2:30. Mark Wisnes. Patty Morrell, Gayle Morrell. Rob Buttomer, and Lisa Tri- andifilos each collected a small tin of candy and a ten dollar prize. The winners of the yearbook costume contest were Gayle Morrell os Raggedy Ann. Potty Morrell os Raggedy Andy. Lisa Triandifilos as Sylvester the Cat. Mark Wisnes as a gorilla, and Rob Buttomer as the Ace of Spades.
