SAYREVILLE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY 1050 WASHINGTON ROAD PARLIN, NJ 08859 Volume 43 Soyreville War Memorial High School Washingron Road Parlin, NJ 08859 LOOKING AROUND Introduction 2 Spring ’83 16 Sports 33 Student Life 66 Faculty 122 Academics 132 Underclass 142 Seniors 160 Closing 200 Stride by stride, Amanda Postre appears serious enough about gym class to be preparing for the 1984 Olympics. With every year a championship year, Olympians of the Mind Nora Farrell. Rich Butchko, and Paul Travisano hud- dle with Ms. Sutherland to attempt to continue the winning tradition. Looking through the eyes of SWMHS students, the lower A wing is the least round-about way to get almost anywhere in the building. 2 Introduction ROUNDING-OUT '84 Life is a kind of a circle composed of the past, the present, and the future. School, a microcosm of life, is a dizzying “round” of homework, classes, extra curricular ac- tivities, all necessary for a “well-rounded” school experience. Circles can be found through- out the school-the locks on our lockers, each “cir- cle” of friends, clock faces, school rings, and even the football huddle. How many times has an English teacher had a group “form a circle” to discuss a book? How about the circular contours of teachers’ mouths as they respond to those little unexpected happenings? There’s an often round pizza all the students look forward to for lunch. And what about the classroom lights that look like fans that should go round and round, particularly at the beginning of this school year as temperatures hovered around one-hundred degrees? It’s time to stop talking in circles and time to get moving on Quo Vadis ’84. Best of luck to those sophomores and juniors currently “rounding the bend” toward gradu- ation. We’ll be around A well-rounded school offers more than sports. Here Robert Rudowski sits tall after a hard session on the weights. An early season match found Tony Viola trying to get the ball around some solid Panther defense. Introduction 3 READY, AIM, GO-AL FOR IT! Throughout a lifetime, any individual works toward a variety of goals, and essentially the process is always the same. First, the individual must define that goal, whether great or small. Per- haps it is an A on an English paper, the winning touchdown at Saturday’s game, or perfecting a difficult musical arrangement. Maybe it is to score 1250 on the SAT or to set up one’s own medical practice. The next necessary step in achieving this goal is taking careful aim. That means, perhaps, carefully rewriting of that paper, running an extra mile after a grueling football scrimmage, or put- ting the whole family through endless hours of painful “sour notes.” It could mean giving up one night a week to take a preparatory course or even dedicating up to eight years of adult life to serious study. Once the target has been clarified and the steps taken to bring it into reach, the test becomes to remain fixed on that goal, and that is the func- tion of education. Aims, targets, and goals are familiar concepts to high school students. In fact, they are a way of life for faculty and students alike. Some students just aim at getting out with a diploma. Others focus on inter- mediate targets such as activity par- ticipation that will inevitably mold them into community leaders. All share in the goal of making their years at SWMHS the “biggest and brightest” possible. Certainly the ’83-’84 students have demonstrated working toward that goal. Goals are a necessary part of any endeavor. Spring gym class found Lori Tomlinson aiming for this bull- seye. BELOW: Are goals really the key to success? For Mike Bouchard's interception and attempt to score for the Bombers, this is clearly apparent. RIGHT: It’s not whether the game was won or lost but the quality of the half-time performance that concerned Wendy Holsworth during this exuberant routine accompanying trumpet solo Sirocco. BELOW LEFT: The blaring notes of Joshua from Don Kintz's trumpet can't break Shaun Ferguson and Mike Jaffe's concentration on the football team's last attempt for that extra point. BELOW RIGHT: English is not the subject Lori Chernow has on her mind as she not-so-patiently totals up the minutes she has left in the library. Introduction 5 SWMHS—Always In Season ABOVE: Cheering in the football season not only warms up the crowd, but seniors Sheri Szvarvus and Joanne Markulic who have the winter sports cheering season ahead. RIGHT: Hard at work in August, Editors Cindy Harrigan and Susan Miller pooled their efforts to make Quo Vadis '84 the best ever! Like the four unpredictable seasons, the activities in school go on year round. Ironically, it's only when nature starts slowing down that things start speeding up at SWMHS. The sports teams have their first games, and clubs begin to meet. Contrary to popular opinion, snow days and Christmas vaca- tion are not the only exciting things going on during the winter. For instance, all language clubs get together to hold a festival with lots of food and prizes. To further highlight the holiday season, SWMHS hosts a variety of musical shows. The school year is backwards once again; as students wind down, nature is just starting up. Spring fever hits everyone. This reverse hibernation often called senioritis, can affect anyone from seniors to teachers. Summer signals the end of the school year, and many activities stop until next September. Things don't end completely, though, as groups like the band, Quo Vadis staffers, and the Student Council all have things to do over the summer. Finally, everyone prepares for another year of . . . four seasons. 6 Introduction Not only do they have to keep warm dur- ing those cold football games, the band even warms up for their summer band camp! Sitting on the job? No, not Darren Locklin and Cindy Fin- gerlin, Student Council members, whose jobs seem to last throughout the summer. LEFT: With the fall production of “Our Town underway, Mr Piccuirro's work is far from over. He is reminded that theater is year round work as he and Leila Tadros discuss choices for the spring musical. ABOVE: The autumn leaves on the ground add to a romantic mood demonstrated by an arm in arm Tony Viola and Bunnie Thomas. BELOW: On a snow covered morning, cars in the parking lot destroy the students’ hopes for a day off. Introduction 7 Everyday Cycles What time is it? Oh—, only two min- utes since I last looked. Oh well. Clock-watching is a normal routine in any school day. It isn’t the only daily cycle in school, though. There are the lockers in that “lovely” shade of green, the ultimate destina- tions for all those pit stops between classes. Who in the class of '84 could ever forget Junior High orientation, when Mr. Adams stood in the cafeteria with his giant cardboard combination locks? Perhaps the most favored school cy- cle, though, is the time-tested school to homework to back to school. Speak- ing of back-to-school, the first day of school usually is interesting, the day after is okay, but then there’s the day after that, and the day after that . . . Come to think of it, school wouldn’t be so boring if it wasn’t so cyclic. There is one overall cycle that’s pret- ty neat, though - orientation to gradu- ation. School is of course not the only place one finds cycles. There are 9 to 5 jobs, sunrise to sunset, high tide and low tide, and of course, bicycles. Bicy- cle wheels are like cycles, going ‘round and’ round .... TOP: At 2:25, Mike Chiofalo looks more like a plant undergoing photosynthesis than a student studying it. But how much energy will he have when his weekend begins at 2:30? CENTER: Round and round he goes, Kara Peterson takes a relaxing ride, on her bike after a long day of school. 8 Introduction A beat” Mike Zie- linski takes a break from his busy routine . while Suzanne Potts gets her “licks from a large lollipop. The time spent waiting “a-round for pizza will balance out as a square meal for Ralph Howardson, James Okamura, and Lori Jarusiewicz. With no time to spare between 1st and 2nd periods, Darren Locklin “goes in circles searching for the right combination. Introduction 9 As new students to the school, this group of sophomores takes some time out to discuss last period's Algebra quiz. The sunlight streaming down upon JoAnn Markulic and Steve Haspel, shows that true friends do go ’round , even Saturday after- noon shopping at Woodbridge Center. 10 Introduction Circles Of Friends This article is for everyone within any circle of friends, those groups of special people sometimes necessary for survival of those hectic high school days. In other words, this is for everyone. Remember trying to squeeze through the hallway before the first homeroom bell rang, and trying not to merge permanently with those boundless groups of people you'd like to disband? But, of course, twenty feet further is your own group, your circle of friends, and who cares whose progress you might be impeding? All those due homework assign- ments and late term papers—how your friends consoled you. Natural- ly, a weekend party was the only cure. After the weekends, the Monday doldrums usually set in character- ized by dark circles under the eyes and the bored, tired yawns. But Sayreville War Memorial High School offered a cure. Each group with common interests came together— those intense circles of friends dedi- cated to a single cause: the Spanish, French, and German clubs, Games Club, Reading for Pleasure Club, Math Club, Women’s Varsity Club, FBLA, FTA, DECA . . . the circles are endless. “What would the world be without circles—of friends? “Rather square or flat, I should suppose.” BELOW: More than a circle of friends” gath- er during Band Camp to tune in on Mr. Shaner's plans for marching into the winner's circle. ABOVE: Ken- nedy Park is not the only place this group of fris- bee fanatics can catch spring fever. For Tony Be- atrice, Jason S p r i n ga r d , Barry Rosen- kopf, John La- kowski, and K o Chin Chang, the school grounds fit their purpose of having fun. 11 Introduction SWMHS: A Professional Building When it comes to vocations, SWMHS means business. A tour of the many wings of the school reveals the diversity of the elective programs. Expert doodlers develop their skills in drawing classes. Other students choose to cre- ate projects of metal, wood, plastic, ceramics, or other ma- terials, all under the supervi- sion of skilled faculty. Executives-to-be get their starts in the lower A-wing. Classes focus on marketing, accounting, secretarial skills, and more. The best part of the program may be that students apply what they learn on the job. Whether they prefer working in an office, a beauty salon, or a garage, there’s something for every vocation-minded SWMHS student. Often just taking a course helps a student decide if he or she wishes to go further in a particular field. Measurements and calculations are checked precisely by Dave Malik. Is he using that same precision in planning his future? ABOVE: Two years of auto mechanics gets Tony Geleti s career rolling. His professional body work will depend on his auto shop experience. 12 Introduction LEFT: Could this shot be from the movie Nine to Five? Possibly, but more likely they are students practicing their skills in Typing II. LEFT: By the look on Vicki Grasso's face, it seems that she and Billee Jo Brown are cooking up more than lasagna. Could the thought of a culi- nary future be brew- ing in their minds? BELOW: A circle of Sayreville's up-and- coming beauticians can always be found in room D-18 hard at work on new ideas in hair design. Introduction 13 IT'S A SMALL WORLD Even if extraterrestrials and “space cadets” are counted, there are still a number of people in SWMHS who are not from the United States. In fact, there is a student here who was born above the Arctic Circle, and one from below the equator. Many of them speak different languages and have had to accustom themselves to the “crazy, everyday American way of life,” SWMHS -style. Most of the students’ families moved to the states seeking a better education and job opportunities. Those who attended school in other countries agree that American schools are both easier and less strict. In Thailand, according to Vi- sanu Agvateesiri, the students wore required uniforms, went to school on Saturdays, and never chose their courses. Janusz Badach says that in Poland, the only subject a student can choose is which foreign language he will study in high school. In Taiwan, the teachers are far more strict, and students more obedient, as senior Deborah Sun revealed. As a second grader, Debbie remembers class- mates who had not done their work being struck. Janusz Badach, whose family came to the United States because of his father’s political beliefs, says that he was shocked to find so much crime in such a rich country. Used to a “calmer” European society, he feels that the television is of too much im- portance to most American teen- agers. Then again, Margaret Gochango from the Philippines, appreciates the hustle and bustle of American life. She enjoys the freedom of American thinking and the glamour of New York. Freedom also drew the Egyp- tian family of Souzy Sawiris who ex- plained that the Moslems have con- trol of the government in Egypt, and therefore, blocked the vocational promotion of Christians. Neville Udwadia of India recognized the increased opportunity in the U.S., both educationally and vocational- ly, but admitted to missing old friends. One special person at SWMHS this year was Monica Sivertsen, exchange student from Norway. The sheer size of the country overwhelmed her at first, yet Monica enjoyed being here for a year, She looked forward to a possible vacation here, but she also missed family and friends. One of the hardest parts of moving was leaving family. Satinder Aujla often thinks of his relatives in England, and Roland Munoz noted the lack of a generation gap among his relatives in Ecuador. Perhaps we might all go back to the Philippines with Rich Fernandez and be in college already. With the whole world in his hands, Roland Munoz enthu- siasticlly relates details about his home and Equa- dor. 14 Introduction Hard work is not foreign” to Janusz Badach, who remembers having to work even harder in Poland's classroom. Preparing for college is a tough job for Souzy Sawiris who, com- ing from Egypt, must work extra hard to expand her English vocabulary. While Miss Sowa gives extra help to Debbie Sun and Margaret Gochangco they discuss the better education system in this country.

Not as much of a pushover” as he'd hoped, Judy Berardicelli fights off the avid attentions of Joe Geleta. Even though all attention is on Joe Geleta, little credit is paid toward his tall tale. As Todd Fenstermaker serenades his wife-to-be, Judy Berar- dicelli dreams of marital bliss. Despite their heavy costumes and complex dance routine, the chorus of Carousel creates the illusion of whirling with ease. CAROUSEL More Than A Merry-Go-Round “The carousel's in town! And so the people came and the stars shone and a great light filled the audito- rium ... for this year’s annual spring musical, Carou- sel. With its kaleidoscope of colors, music and dancing, the musical rivaled even June in “bustin' out all over.’’ Hours of work went into this production, even more than with past plays directed by Mr. Piccuirro. The dance steps were demanding—especially for the girls, whose dresses weighed about thirty pounds each. As Mr. Piccuirro said, “That’s like dancing with regular clothes on, plus a cinder block.’’ The sets took longer than usual to create, as no one knew how to make the carousel move. Manpower—locked inside the carou- sel—proved to be the answer. Then, with some seri- ous acting and voices that “come along once in a blue moon,’’ it all came off beautifully. The stars in the heaven scene were not the only stars lighting up the stage in Carousel. Kevin Ferguson, Lori Foster, Judy Berardicelli, Andrea Spiegel and Joe Geleta all were fantastic, and the rest of the large cast provided great support. Just as important was the work done by the makeup, lighting, costume and stage crews. Led by Mr. Shaner, the Pit Band performed with its usual style and finesse. All in all, Carousel was a ride to remember. Spring Play 19 JUNIORS GET As all those at the Junior Prom on May 7, 1983, will agree, there were some truly precious mo- ments. The familar, old SWMHS cafeteria was transformed into a magical garden for the occasion. Real trees, plants and flowers were brought in to compliment the streamers and “stained- glass” windows. Kicks, a popular band, provided Fred Oieker’s stern look man- aged to send the Quo Vadls pho- tographer away — but not be- fore she captured this embrace of Fred and Jill Petroski. Caught in an awkward posi- tion, Jim Gelder attempts to explain to Dave McDowell his new headdress and the lady's shoe under his chair. But where are their dates? THEIR KICKS the music for some very excited juniors. Bunnie Thomas also sang a song, accompanied by Jennifer Minnick on the piano, but the highlight of the evening was when Lisa Cooney sang the theme song, “Truly”. Sayreville Bar provided a deli- cious hot and cold buffet for the occasion. Food was necessary to replenish the strength of dancers who continued until one a.m.! To quench their thirst, the juniors enjoyed liquid refreshment from their favors—wine glasses for the girls, and Pilsner beer glasses for the boys. As the night wound down to an end everyone agreed the Junior Prom had been replete with “pre- cious moments.” The grin on Bunny Thomas’s face expresses the way she regards her date, Fred Astaire lookalike, Tony Viola. The pace of the dancers on the floor slows to the tempo of the mu- sic, a romantic end to the '83 Junior Prom. 20 Junior Prom A born leader, Tom Reagan takes hold of the bandstand in spirited accompaniment of Baby Blue. The smiles on the faces of Stephanie Skibicki and her escort show that nothing is going to stop them from having an outrageous” time at this year's senior prom. Dobv Dlue And Sets Of Two Q. What was Baby Blue, had a gorgeous view and came in formal sets of two? A. The Senior Prom, of course. It was the evening of May 20, and the Shore Casino in the Atlantic Highlands stood ready and waiting for the night's guests. Farther north, traffic was stopped from Washington Road in Sayreville to Route 9, wait- ing for the line of charter buses to pass them. What’s this? Was the President passing through? Or was it some visiting head of state getting the V.I.P. treat- ment? Nah. Those on the buses were true Sayrevillians—the senior class of 1983. The event was the prom. Held in the elegant Shore Casino, with a gorgeous view of the bay, the prom lasted until 2 A.M. Old friends, the As the prom continues seniors such as Pam Richel enjoy one of their last social gatherings. impending graduation, and thoughts of the future were what the theme, “Yesterday, Today, and To- morrow was all about. Not hampered by the small dance floor, the seniors danced right out in the aisles, stopping only for the soup, salad, prime rib, and parfait. Line dancing was especially popular. (One poular step was unidentifia- ble—the “Squirrel swirl has been suggested; it was certainly a lot of fun!) For the advisors, the highlight of the evening was receiving roses from the seniors. The seniors, though, will always remember when Tom Reagan got up to sing and dance with the band. The hours flew by, and it seemed that in no time at all it was time to gather up the garters, carafes and wine glass favors and board the buses or the quiet ride home. As they take a breather from the night's excitement Jill Polmy and her date flash a smile for the photographer. Senior Prom 21 Da Vinci In The Spring Masterpiece Moves To Michigan Anytime the school administration allows a group to take a few days off to go traveling there has to be a catch. And for seven SWMHS stu- dents and their advisor it turned into an “Olympian feat. Sayreville’s Olympics of the Mind Team, represented by Paul Travi- sano, Bill Burgermeister, Sue Pas- ternak, Maritza DiSciullo, Patti Tauber, Tom Miglin, and Peter Burg- er competed with thirty-five teams from all over the United States and Canada. The division of competition, in which this team competed and placed fifth was The Leonardo da Vinci Springcar. Bill derived the ba- sic formula by connecting a spring to a wire which in turn was attached to sprockets to the back of the bike. Sue's contribution was a refinement of that formula. Although they only placed fifth in the competition, the team ranked second in their style of acting and adaptation to the story. After the competition, a relaxed Ms. Sutherland looked to yet an- other “Olympic year with hopes that the 1984 team would also “go far.” Olympics of the Mind’s Bill Burgermeister demonstrates his skill on an oversized tricycle? No, he's exhibiting his latest masterpiece. 22 Olympics of the Mind The school’s parking lot marks the starting point for OM spring car team's road to the international meet. In anticipation of his confirmation into the society. Jeff Hollender eagerly watches Cindy Harrigan set her candle aglow. Two special friends, AnneMarie Steiner and Laureen McHugh, share an exciting moment on the eve of the NHS induction cere- mony. Illuminarim One of the largest NHS groups ever had its induction ceremony in March of 1983. Al- most all 119 members participated in a beau- tifully symbolic cere- mony, as each member lit his or her candle from the candle of knowledge. A small presentation was made by the offi- Intelligence cers of the NHS, as each recited a quote from the four qualities of a National Honor So- ciety member-charac- ter, leadership, service, and scholarship. Presi- dent Matt Pachkowski invited Dr. Parnell to be an honorary member of the NHS because there was no estab- lished Honor society at the time she attended high school. Inspiring performances were made by Judy Berardi- celli as she sang “Over the Rainbow and Ke- vin Ferguson sang “You’ll Never Walk Alone. After the ceremony, faculty, parents, and in- ductees took a well-de- served break and en- joyed a buffet assort- ment of snacks and desserts supplied and served by the high school Home Econom- ics staff. As new members of the Na tional Honor Society. Kelly Bolton and Rich Butchko take part in the traditional candle lighting ceremony. NHS Induction 23 Jr Just before the ceremonial march began Steve Grabas and John Zac- zek held onto the moment. An important part of the graduation ceremony is the distribution of awards to outstanding graduates. With a smile of gratitude. Jessica Bauer accepts a yearbook service award. A serious Matt Pach- kowski addresses his class on challenges, past and future. Not even the in- door ceremony ne cessitated by the inclement weather could dampen the spirits of the 1983 graduates. 24 Graduation Moving Up A storm cloud with bad timing forced the gradu- ating class of 1983 indoors on June 20th. The decision to hold the commencement ceremony inside was made at 1:15 p.m.-just hours before the event, and senior advisors Mrs. Moore. Mrs. Lasko, Mrs. Gola, and Mrs. Groncki with the ex- perienced aid of Miss Lamprecht and Miss Sunski had to rush to get everything set up. Mrs. Moore summed the evening up: “It was an experience . . . but not a terribly negative one. Speechwise, this commencement ceremony was a very positive one. While salutatorian Carol Kowzan looked back on the past and thanked parents and teachers, valedictorian Matt Pach- kowski focused on the future. Administrators and board members also commented on the many strengths of the class and hopes for the future. The members of the class of 1983 had other things on its mind, though, as they batted aroung beach balls and balloons. Some of the boys gave standing ovations to singers Judy Berardicelli and Melanie Fallon; or was that because there weren’t enough chairs? Like the helium-filled bouquet of balloons that one family presented their daughter, or the hot- air balloon another family set up on the practice football field, the Class of '83 was looking forward to moving up.

For freshman Eddie Chin, being the youngest member of the team was to his “advantage”. He not only gained experience but became the sec- ond best player on the team, causing top rated Steve DiAngelis to work even harder. Along with some new faces came wins against tough SWMHS opponents. One team, Madison Central, had earlier beaten SWMHS 5-0. Sayre- ville, though, “bounced back” successfully with a 3-2 win. Although several of the starting players gradu- ated, Coach Nicoliason is confident that he has enough talented players returning to produce a 1984 season full of “aces.” t BOYS VARSITY TENNIS SWMHS OPPONENT 0 East Brunswick 5 0 Madison Central 5 1 Woodbridge 4 1 St. Mary's S.A. 4 1 South River 4 1 St. Mary's S.A. 4 1 Cedar Ridge 4 2 Edison 3 0 East Brunswick 5 0 St. Joseph's 5 1 J.P.

KEEPING TRACK 1983 was a good year for the Girls Track Team as they ran, jumped, hurdled, tossed and threw their way to 5 wins and 3 losses. One of the team’s most outstanding members was Gail Kupcha, who captured a Second Place in the M.C.A.C. Gail was superb in the 1600m, breaking her own record six times this season. She also held the record in the 3200m until Patty Lynch broke it-four times. Other outstanding runners for the team included AnnMarie Macaluso, Rachelle Rom- pola, Laurie Wedekind, and Karen Chaplin, a 100m, 200m and javelin specialist who made the Second Team All Con- ference. Coach Mauer was confident that as long as girls continue to come out for the team and run, the team will continue to get better.

Although there seems to be no end to the outstand- ing runners on the team, one person is generally considered the most improved. Over the season, Sophomore Donald Vansader has worked to drop 15 seconds from his time in the half mile. He’s definitely one of the team’s hot prospects. In the field, veteran Chris Ryan also racked up points for the Sayreville team. Several team members indicated that being a part of this team was much work and much play, with a focus on their archrival East Brunswick, sure to con- tinue into the ’84 season. Coach Doll and Coach Scar- ola were positive the team will be even more success- ful next year. As they round the track, Ralph Howardson and Dave Parinello, make their move on winning the race for Sayreville.

Although there were many good players returning from last year, the team just couldn’t seem to get past their tougher opponents. Fully eight games were lost by one or two runs. That’s not to say that the team didn’t have good points. Ed Condiracci had a .273 bat- ting average, with most im- proved player, Tom Lasko fol- lowing at .258. The best game of the season, though, was when Kurt Wenzel pitched a one-hitter against Cedar Ridge for the team’s only shut-out. Kurt and fellow pitcher Joe Brand won partial scholarships to Rider College as a result of their season performances. Coach Gozora foresees a chance for an improved record next season as many of the hard-hitters will be returning. With bat in hand, Sean Gallagher awaits to wind-up in the batter's box. For slugger Tony Esposito, the batting box is the key to winning a ball game. VARSITY BASEBALL: Front: John Mazurkiewicz. Jim Hauber, Mike Tra- vato, Tom Lasko. Middle: Jeff Holsworth, Chris Mohr.

SUCCESSFUL SWINGERS An approaching runner’s attempt is stopped by a quick-handed Caryn Lukie. Experience paid off as the girls Varsity Softball team once again had a success- ful season. Seniors Lori Blaszka and Col- leen Crozier were dual threats both on the mound and in the batting box, as they helped the team win its many victo- ries. Another important ingredient to success was senior Barbara Matthews, who led the team in RBI's and home runs. Although a majority of the team has graduated—including the entire pitch- ing staff—the Bomberettes cannot be counted out yet. The team still has many good returning players. One, sophomore Vanessa Carney, began to prove her worth, in a tough game against Woodbridge. The team won 10-6 on Vanessa’s eighth inning grand slam. The whole team handled itself well, as they proved in their most challenging games of the season, against Wood- bridge, East Brunswick, and Colonia. The losses incurred at East Brunswick and Colonia didn’t dampen the team's spirits, though. They went on to play well in other games, however. For the girls, having fun and being able to take pride in the team are always the most important things. The intense concentration of Colleen Pitching Veteran Lori Blaszka releases a pitch Crozier shows as she waits for the that could turn the game around, chance to move to second base. Girls' Varsity Softball 31 SOLID SEASONS This was the year for JV teams as yet another one had an excellent season. The JV Softball team went 13-7 in 1983, and they’re looking for another great year in '84. The team had an outstanding de- fense. With star pitcher Shelley Mayer- nick on the mound, and players like Patty Cumber, Terry Lockwood, Melis- sa Kimmel and Lori Shouldis in the field, Sayreville was a team to watch out for. The previously undefeated Edi- son team learned that the hard way, when they Isot 15-14! With this solid season behind them, and the prospect of more freshmen coming out for the team next year, Coach Popowski had high hopes for the future. The closest thing to a real bomb is the heavy hurl of Gerard VanPell. Keep your eye on the ball, and swing thinks Terri Lockwood as she awaits the pitch. “The team was the most cooper- ative, talented group that I have ever had the pleasure of coaching, and as their 13-7 record attests, will assure Sayreville of baseball success in years to come.” Those were the words of JV Baseball coach Mr. Burkehart at the end of the '83 season. Proud of his team, the coach went on to name nearly half of the team to the “outstanding players list, includ- ing such notables as Kevin Houra- han, who had a .404 batting aver- age, and was 3-0 pitching and mas- ter pitchers Scott Spiecker and Ge- rard Van Pell. The most improved players were outfielder George Christie, and pitcher Gary Wysocki. One week in particular stands out in retrospect-the week when the team defeated East Brunswick, Colonia, and Carteret-the three top teams in the county-one after the other. With the team batting average of over .300, tight de- fense, and control pitching, Sayre- ville had virtually no weak points. With this great season, and the ex- perience it provided, it looks like Sayreville’s baseball future is very bright indeed.

A Record Thar Speaks For Irself The Varsity Field Hockey team had another successful season as they captured the county championships for the second consecutive year. They finished with a 13-3-2 record, sending three girls to the first team All County, and another three to the second team. The team was led by an outstanding group of seniors. Caryn Lukie, Ellen Lockwood, and Katie Briody kept the actual scoring high, and Katie, Ellen, and Chrissy Romel had the most assists. When asked to name the outstanding players, Coach Sunski named all the seniors “because they were the key players.” The girls’ strength on the field was painfully obvious to their opponents: 10 out of 18 games were shutouts, with Sayreville shooting 37 goals to their opponents’ 12. Next year should be another good year for the girls, with players like Terry Lockwood, Joyce Winkler, Vanessa Carney, and Kellie O’Brien re- turning. The team beat Middletown South for the first time this year and next year’s team is aiming to defeat their toughest rival, Cranford. After three years of coaching Varsity Hockey, Coach Sunski has fielding the imposing record of 33-15-3. 34 Field Hockey LEFT: With the possibility of an extra point.

Field Hockey squad. With only two returning juniors in the line up, it was clearly experience which was lacking and not skill. Despite a disappointing record, the girls showed an increasing amount of talent blended with enthusiasm throughout the season. The ex- perienced captains leading the squad were Ju- niors Veronica Brodzinski, Denise Valinotti, and Sophomore Christa Delucia, all contributing their skills in the halfback position. Active on the front line was Sophomore Shelly Mayernick and Freshman Sue Shann. Another key player whose presence was notable in the midfield was freshman Christie Gwosdz. To top off the line up, there was sophomore Lori Shoul- dis who proved her courage at guarding the cage. Considering the outlook for next season, Coach Popowski optimistically stated, “The team con- sisted mainly of freshman and sophomores. They gained experience and knowledge of the game this year, so next year should be successful!” LEFT: In an attempt to retain possession of the ball, J.V. forward Denise Valinoti goes head to head against a South River player.

Soccer team even better than their first. With their 9-4-1 record, the team tied Coach Inman’s 1981 “Blue Wave” for the best season in Sayreville’s J.V. Soccer history. The talent was much in evi- dence as Allan Fulmer led the Bombers with 12 goals to his credit, and the two O’Connors, Chris and Tate, tied for the most assists. Coach Ciszewski named Junior Marc Caruso the most im- proved from the beginning of the season. With everyone taking turns as team captains, though, teamwork became the Bombers best defense. The team posted five shut outs in a row and won both their games against rival Hoffman. Most memorable was the win against St. Mary’s, howev- er, as it was a joint victory with the varsity squad. With cautious optimism, Coach “C” 's prediction for next year is “hopefully successful’’ with a goal of winning the country tour- nament. A growing interest in soc- cer is the kind of support the J.V. team needs to keep its winning tradition going.

MOST VALUABLE TEAM When asked to name the Most Valuable Player for the 1983 season, Coach Inman’s reply was, “The whole team.’’ He went on to explain that the team improved together-for two reasons: each player’s un- selfishness and the gain of playing experience togeth- er. The coach himself helped to promote this attitude amongst the team by naming different captains each game. But getting playing time together contributed the most to the team's improvement. After being 0-6 at the start of the season the team came back to play near .500 ball in their last 10 games at 4-5-1. This finish was the best in Sayreville Soccer since 1979. The team did have its moments of glory, defeating Hoffman and Woodbridge. The Hoffman victory came against a 10-0 team which at the time was ranked 7th in the county. Sayreville hosted a tough Group IV Con- ference game, after trying unsuccessfully for two years. The close game was won in the second half by the score of 3-2. The team had its share of award-winning players. At graduation, center halfback Shea Patel and leading scorer Shawn Scherer will receive the MVP awards from the soccer team. Another award presented was the Student-Athlete of the Month Award from Preview magazine. The award was given to Jim McCracken for his achievements in academics, athletics, and commu- nity involvement. The team’s outlook for next year remained optimis- tic because many sophomore and junior members have Varsity experience. RIGHT: Spotting a hole in the Panther Defense.

Flipping Over The Finals What could four seniors, three ju- niors, and two sophomores, all inter- ested in flipping over bars, tumbling on mats, and achieving perfect balance on a skinny balance beam do? Well, for one thing, they could become an acro- batic act in a travelling circus. Or they could call themselves the Girls’ Gym- nastic team and compete with other area gymnasts. Since Coach Carney encouraged the latter, and with great success, we suspect it is a fad that will soon catch on. Despite a lot of injuries, the Girls’ Gymnastic team pulled through to fin- ish with an 8-2 record. Leading the team was senior Captain Joni Mayer. Under Coach Carney’s tutelage, Joni and junior Diane Garbowski made it to the States, with Diane going as far as the finals. Although almost half of the team will graduate this year and Coach Carney will retire from coaching, the other half of the team is confident enough to feel they will have a good season.

CHALLENGING HIGH MARKS As expected, the Boys’ Gymnastics Team achieved high marks all season, fin- ishing with an impressive 8-4 record. Not content with beating only district oppo- nents, the team went on to place sixth in the State Tournament finals. Known for his parallel bar routines, Sen- ior Captain Tim Coman became a valuable all-around competitor. Tim won many medals and was selected to the Coaches’ All-State Team on the paralles, but his most glorious moment had to be winning a Second Place medal in the state finals. The other Senior Captain, Shaun Cochran, was the team’s manager as a sophomore, and a beginner last year. This season he im- proved tremendously, qualifying for the sectionals in two events. The team’s most memorable moment was their nerve-wracking meet with Toms River North. In the middle of the meet, Sophomore Joe Vitale was injured, slightly denting his teammates' optimism. The squad pulled through, though, and won the meet by a slim two points. With up-and-coming sophomores like Joe Vitale, Jim Reynolds, and Ed Chin re- turning next year, Coach Hefelfinger says the team’s future chances are, “Excellent! . . .

In maintaining their winning tradition, the Boys Cross Country team repeated what has come to be an annual performance. Under the leadership of Coach Doll, and Senior Captains Dave Parinello and Ralph Howardson, the team ran off with seven victories. Their two losses were both to teams rated in the state’s top ten. In addition to an impressive record, the squad fin- ished third in the county and fourth in the state. A number of juniors turned in outstanding performances, most notably Tim Newsome, Tom Luther, and Don Van Saders. Luckily for Coach Doll, his top five runners will be returning. Looking forward to the next season, Co- Captain Dave Parinello said “I wish I could be here next year to see the team win the counties. Taking over for Coach Doll as head of the Girls Cross Country team was newcomer Gus Noble. Faced with a new coach and only two seniors on the squad, the girls wound up with a 3-5 record. The team's captain and star runner was senior Gail Kupcha, who finished fifth in both the county and sectionals, and thirteenth in the state. Gail was named All-Conference and All-County, and left many records for future teams to break. Although all the girls worked hard to stay in top shape, Coach Noble singled out Cami Baranowski, Lori Halcomb, and Laura Polidori as the most improved. As Gail said, ‘‘I feel this year’s team was the best ever. Even though our record doesn’t express that, each team member gave 100% of their effort. With that kind of dedication and a better knowledge of his run- ners’ potential, Coach Noble looks for next season to be successful indeed.

Aces Dear Pairs Despite their 6-14 record, Coach Nicolaison felt good about the 1983 Girls' Varsity Tennis Team, and for good rea- son. The Star-Ledger ranked the girls tenth in the county for three consecutive weeks, and the team qualified to play against East Brunswick in the State Tournament. Some outstanding play can be credited to Second Doubles team members Judy Milligan and Karen Leber. The two ju- niors had the second best re- cord on the team, and were no- minated for All-Conference. Leading the singles players was sophomore Joanne Chud- kowski, who finished with a 16- 7 record for the second year in a row. She also qualified for the State Singles, was seeded fourth in the county tourna- ment, and received first singles second team selection in the Middlesex Athletic Conference. “For the second straight year the team has shown im- provement both in record and individual performances. On several occasions we came close to upsetting better ranked teams, commented Coach Nicolaison. With a full seven starters returning, he was very optimistic regarding the 1984 season. With a strong return to her competitor Connie Spolowitz puts the match in full swing. Girls Tennis 47 The First Down To A Goal After winning the first game, many Bomber players and fans were optimistic. Opponents were just one of the obstacles the team had to face, though, and I earning a new system was an- other. Not always reflected in the final scores were all the hours of hard work and practice. Still, the new Head Coach Milt Theodasatos feels the players have developed “better tech- niques and finesse. Despite a 1-8 record, it was obvious that “Coach Theo brought more than experience to the Sayreville football program. This year’s play- ers looked and acted more like a team than they had in the past seasons. One example was the pride they took in wearing the red berets, award- ed for “outstanding clean aggressiveness. Regu- lar wearers were Joe Dino, Mike Bouchard, Dan Armetta and Mike Battaglia. Leadership devel- oped as captains varied from game to game. De- termined not to lose players to grades, the coach kept a close eye on their marks, promoting the team members to do as well as they could in class. Coach Theo also got involved with a winter strength building program. Hopefully, next year’s team will be in top shape when the ’84 season starts. Most people chalk up this season’s record to experience, as well as getting used to a new coach and a new philosophy. Team members named the victory over Perth Amboy and suc- cessful interference run on the Edison team as high points of the ’83 season. When the Bombers next have a winning season depends, as Coach Theo sees it, on how much the Bombers improve, their opponents’ strength, and luck. Although this season was somewhat of disappointment for the overall team, many individual players did receive honors and awards. Among them four All County Honorable Mentions were received by Mike Bou- chard, Mike Battaglia, Bill Peschler, and Chris Ryan.

Football 49 BUILDING WINNING CHARACTER Disapproving Vince Lombardi’s theory that winning is the only important thing, Coach Zaleski was pleased with the '83 season because the football players played to the best of their ability. This attitude carried over to the players who hope to move up next year and play varsity football. Over the year the players have been training and with the start of next season they expect to be much stronger, both mentally and physical- ly. The most important aspect about this year's teams was that they developed a winning character. To build up this appearance and character of being winners the coaches have employed two different techniques. As a means to develop a more disciplined team, the coaches set up a more definite practice schedule. This also led to a con- tinuity that helped the players look and act like winners. To motivate the players further captains were chosen from the previous week’s game and practices before the game. JV players named the midseason win against East Bruns- wick as the season’s high point and the sophomore team named their 32-12 victory in the cold, rainy weather as its most memorable moment. With the way the teams seem to be developing, the 1984 season may see that winning attitude enacted in their perfor- mance. BELOW: Sidelined Bombers share in the tension of 4th down and goal to go.

Finishing third in the Counties, the team named this as both their most memorable mo- ment and their biggest disappoint- ment. The team swam well to achieve this mark, but they were somewhat disappointed at only placing third. Leading the individual achievements was Captain Chris Block who won first and second in the butterfly and 50 yard freestyle while Reyne Borup placed 1st in the Counties and 3rd in the States for diving. Janet Poetsch, Alicia Ander- son, Stacey and Jaime Jablonski, Ann Marie Feraro, and Lynn Pachkowski re- cieved medals in the county meet. With only five team members gradu- ating, the team is looking forward to a good year with a dozen returning letter winners. The team is also hoping for greater school support next year.

As usual, the record didn’t reveal all there was to know about the Varsity Wrestling season. Under Captain Tony Viola, the team won the Wood- bridge Tournament for the second year in a row, placed fifth in the Middlesex County Tournament, and missed first place in the District 20 Tournament by just four points. Both Tony Viola and Mike Bouchard placed first in Conference and County. Last but not least, Coach Za- leski was named Coach of the Year.

BELOW: To begin the match on the right foot, Coach Fischer relies on leadoff man Mike Bell to give the Bombers an early advantage. Bronze In '84; Gold In '85 Considering the JV squad’s lack of returning wrestlers and their incomplete line-up, the season unfortunately began with little promise. Nevertheless, the wrestlers put in suffi- cient time and energy to turn the tables and end with a (3-5- 1) season, just one win shy of a .500 record. Providing the Bombers with impressive victories through- out the season were experienced wrestlers Lorenzo Fernan- dez (129), captain Glen VanPell (135), Gerard VanPell (141), Roland Munoz (148), and Gary Wysocki (158). Other nota- ble wrestlers were Joe Mascali and Tony Carlesimo, both of whom walked away with bronze metals at the novice tourna- ment. In spite of such combined talent and effort, the squad’s record was a losing one. Evaluating the team’s potential, Coach Zaleski gave his positive opinion of the team’s outlook. “With a good fresh- man class moving up and 1st and 2nd year wrestlers return- ing, the JV squad will improve tremendously.’’ With arm raised and fist clenched. Lorenzo Fernandez enjoys the result of a hard earned victory. r SWMHS J.V. WRESTLING OPPONENT 18 East Brunswick 39 30 J.P.

Tracking Down Winners The 1984 season for the Boys and Girls Win- ter Track team was a “rebuilding year” in sev- eral ways. First of all, 95% of the team were underclassmen. Secondly, the teams were at the disadvantage of running in all away meets. The coaches predict that as soon as the all weather track is completed, a notable upswing will occur. However, there were a number of team members who placed well throughout the sea- son. In the county meet Gail Kupcha and Lori Wedekind both placed 5th in this 800 meter and the 55 meter dashes. Another 5th place finish for the girls was gained in the 1600 me- ter relay by Cami Baranowski, Sue Kiernan, Gail Kupcha, and Lori Wedekind. The highlight at the counties was when the boys captured 1st in the 1600 meter relay. Members of the winning combination were Don VanSaders, Ralph Howardson, George Evanego, and Tom Luther. In addition, Coach Doll and Coach Noble named Laurie Halcomb and Greg Cavaliere as the most improved runners; as stars, the coaches pointed out Tom Luther and Gail Kup- cha. Thus with many runners returning and hopefully a new track next year should be a winning one. GIRLS WINTER TRACK TEAM: Front: Valerie Jastrzebski. Joanne Esposito. Kathy Esposito, Kim Brown.

Nearly Tough Enough With only two returning lettermen, the Boys Varsity Basketball team knew it would be a tough season. It got even tougher when one of those lettermen, Scott Jurkiewicz, injured his leg, and spent the balance of the season on the bench. This year’s captains Shea Patel and John Mazurkiewicz, worked hard to toughen up their rookie squad. Coach Grzywacz summed up this building sea- son: “The team gained experience and learned more as the season went on. The high point of the season was their game at the Meadowlands. Be- sides being a great experience, it en- couraged the team to improve their re- cord. They won two out of their last three games against Cedar Ridge and South Brunswick. Coach Grzywacz named Juniors Rich Nehila, Ken Gaasbeck, and Jim Oka- mura as most improved players. With nine lettermen returning, next year’s season will be sure to end with a better record.

Boys Varsity Basketball 61 Winning Team Effort The Boys JV Basketball team’s record of 10-11 didn’t properly reflect their potential or their perfor- mance. A full five games were lost by just a few points, commented Coach “C.” Team effort kept up the team's score as well as spirit. Named most Valuable Players, Ron Prusarcyk and Bill Stankan were responsible for that effort. Ron also led the team in assists. He and John Clayton tied for the most steals. John also received the distinction of being the team’s high scorer, with a total of 421. The team’s best effort and therefore the game that team members will remember longest was the second round of the county tournament when they eliminated St. Joseph’s. Indicating future strength, Coach Ciszewski pointed to a strong Sophomore bench composed of Chris Cook, Steve Steiner, Brian Dzergowski, and Brian Zajac as insurance of a good season in '85.

It's called a team who uses fundamentals and conditioning to build to a varsity level. This year, it was also called the Girls JV Basketball Team. With outstanding players such as Rachelle Rompola, Lisa Grankowski, Shelly Mayernick, and Stacey Gar- dener, the JV Squad produced an 8-11 record. The battle of the boards proved successful for Chris loan- nides and Shelly Mayernick with 154 and 151 rebounds respectively. “Stopping and popping were guards Lisa Grankowski, 107 pts., and Rachelle Rompola, 221 pts. “Stealing the show was Shelly Mayernick with 85 steals and 46 assists. Improved players such as Stacey Gardener, Chris loannides, and Nancy Ferguson helped the Bomber squad overcome a tough East Brunswick team by a 45-43 overtime score. After the hard season was finalized, Coach Ryan expressed satisfaction with the team's effort and abili- ty. “At the beginning of the season, I really didn’t think we would hit a .500 season; toward the end, we lost our intensity.

This year, though, the Student Council reversed the trend by encouraging class rivalries in order to increase school spirit. Their slogan, Who Will be the First to be the Best?” kept Sophomores, Ju- niors, and Seniors interested year-round. It all started at the Fall Pep Rally when one team from each class lined up for the infamous orange pass. The Winter Assembly was a little more athletic, with two homerooms from each class competing in a tug- of-war. Sophomore teams A201 and A210, Juniors A91 and A90, and Senior Team B3 all tried their best, but it was Seniors homeroom B4 that won. The underclassmen got their chance to get revenge in February when a showcase decorating contest was introduced. The most fun, though, came in the spring. The traditional School Spirit Week was topped off by an Almost Anything Goes Assembly, a last chance to earn competition points. A trophy stood ready to be award- ed to the class that accumulated the most points over the year. Every class knows that their class was really the best, but the Student Council’s timing” test turned out to be an effective school spirit booster. Who was the first to be the best? As victory slowly slips from their fingers the Juniors reach “the end of their rope. The pride of Senior homeroom B4 is reflected by this ecstatic display of energy led by Mr. Osborne Class Competition 69 Week-Spirir Who will be the first to be the best? At the onset of the highly anticipated Spir- it Week, the scores stood at Seniors 65, Ju- niors 80, and trailing Sophomores 50. Monday's Blue and Gray certainly didn’t set a matching mood, but “Spirited up fac- ulty and students alike for the events to come. Many comfortable, but “sweaty people attended SWMHS on Tuesday, with probably the SWMHS hooded model being the most-sported as well as most spirited item of apparel. Wednesday had some students confused about just how to show their spirit, as Sen- iors borrowed concert T-shirts, and Sopho- mores were clad in up to twenty bandanas each. (Too bad it didn’t matter how many each sophomore wore!) Almost everyone agreed, however, that the Juniors had it ea- siest, with their “Spirit accessory named as shades. Thursday was everyone’s traditional fa- vorite, Hat Day, and the proud participants donned everything from Mickey Mouse Ears to Susan B. Anthony hats, and bunny ears to Godfather specials. Even a few faculty got involved! Traditionally, each day Student Council representatives took homeroom counts crediting the participation points to the ap- propriate class. (You never knew you could get a participation grade for homeroom, huh?) These points were added on top of the totals posted at the beginning of the Almost Anything Goes assembly, which was . . . . . well, another story. Rules are rules in the library, but Dara Engelhardt got a bit “unruly when captured by the yearbook photographer. 70 Spirit Week Always up-to-date, Chris Slavin makes sure her ears are on for Spirit Week.

Underclass The Almost Anything Goes Assembly scheduled for March 2, 1984, had been anticipated as one of the year’s most enjoyable events. Although only ten class members actually compete, every stu- dent becomes involved as a fan. This year, the tension mounted higher than ever, as Student Council had expanded their class competition scheme and introduced the goal of being the first class to be the best. Surprisingly, the Seniors entered the assembly as the underdogs with just 10 points to the Ju- niors’ 30 and the Sophomores’ 20. The day proved to be very competitive with the leads changing hands many times. In the Sack Race, the Seniors began well and thanks to Steve Chudkowski, nearly emerged victorious from the event but were disqualified because they hadn't gone in the right order. All teams had their mishaps, but everyone seemed to have fun competing. The traditional question was asked by participants and observers alike as the obstacle course was run: When is the Student Council going to oil that tricycle? The Juniors finished enthusiastically victorious and the week's events came to an end, no doubt predicting a good year for the Class of '85 next year. Almost Anything Goes Assembly 73 A Nore-Worthy Performance February 14th, 1984 turned into a sweet exper- ience for the SWMHS Jazz Ensemble, directed by Mr. Shaner. The auditorium reverberated with such favorites as “You Needed Me and “The Flintstones Theme.” So accomplished were the soloists, it was near impossible to name a single outstanding perfor- mance. Certainly Joe Caruso’s rendition of “Georgia on My Mind” touched the blues lovers in the audi- ence and convinced everyone that he deserved his All-State Band status. Joe Kachurick maintained the mood and picked up the rhythm with his “Night Train” solo. Junior High instructor Mr. Donelon ad- ded the deep tones of the Baritone sax to the al- ready diversified repertoire. Almost as a grand fina- le, Mr. Shaner simultaneously participated and di- rected one number. The audience received the concert so well that even an encore was demanded. Commendation goes to the entire ensemble.

It may have been the Winter Concert, but the Jazz Band members, Joe Kawalek, Gregg Pachkowski, Paul Caruso, and John Mazurkiewiez were warmed up and blaring to go. 74 Jazz Ensemble Sucess To Scale Playing “Yankee Doodle Dandy” just as well as the patriots marching off to war, this year’s Pit Band helped to bring back the spirited medleys of “George M.“ As a result of their practices held three times a week since January the pit band favored their “Popularity.” They also practiced above and beyond for the Over- ture which was very long and contained many key and meter changes. Mr. Shaner responded to this by saying, “The difficul- ty of putting together a show is the co- ordination of all the elements.” On any scale, the harmony of these in- dividuals rounded out the patriotic perfor- mance of a very talented cast. The cur- tain came down on a very high note, and the audience could be heard humming their regards. Pleased with their rehearsals the pit band demon- strates the beauty of harmonizing brass and wood- winds. STAGE CREW: Front: Steve Maldony, Shannon Scully, Valerie Jastr- zebski.

And No Stage Fright Behind the scenes, but always up on what’s happen- ing was this year’s stage, make-up, and scenery crews. As usual the success of both productions were depen- dent upon these groups of dedicated workers for smooth productions. The crews’ advisor, Mrs. Moore, met with the group once a week for a month, and every other day during the two weeks before the performances. The crews participated in fundraisers for the produc- tions as well as taking responsibility for their particiap- tion to be a way to become involved in the play, with- out the worry of stage fright. Drama Adjuncts 75 OUR TOWN HITS HOME “Our Town’’ may be Sayreville, but it was also the most successful fall drama in recent years. The biggest crowd in four years turned out to see the fall drama. “For me it was the greatest experience to direct it,’’ said Mr. Pic- cuirro. “It is quite possibly the greatest American drama.’’ Naturally, our town doesn't need stage props to be real, and neither did “Our Town”. A minimum of scenery and props was used, but the effect was still surprisingly real. A stage manager narrator played by Rich Butchko, pro- vided the link from scene to scene. Perhaps because “Our Town is a sto- ry of ordinary people, love and mar- riage, life and death, the lead character was the town itself. To make the town come to life there was a large cast of twenty including Elissa Unkel and Paul Travisano as a young couple, and Lori Anne Foster, Tim O’Connell, Lisa Cooney, and Erich Bremer as their par- ents. Since the past two fall dramas were comedies, Mr. Piccuirro said this was the “first that they had to do seriously, and they were fantastic!’’ As an apprehensive bride, Elissa Unkel listens to some supportive advice from her father Tim O'Connell. 76 Fall Drama While neighbors George and Emily work out These citizens of Grover's Corner prepare for opening night under the leadership of not-so-sober choir master their math problems, their feelings for each jQe Condiracci. other multiply.

Fall Drama 77 Give My Regards To George This year’s spring production brought to life the story and works of George M. Cohan. Such patriot- ic tunes as “Yankee Doodle Dandy” and “Over There-Grand Old Flag” and popular favorites as “Give My Regards to Broadway” enamored every- one in the audience to the classic musical. Minimally, practices ran from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. five days a week beginning in January in prep- aration for the April performances. This kind of dedication from the entire cast can be found in very few schools, according to Drama Director Mr. Piccuirro. He named not the extensive, demanding tap dancing routines as the real challenge to this year’s very unified group, but instead the demand- ing fundraising required to cover their overhead. One of the show’s highlights had to be when a teenage Cohan turned down a powerful producer’s offer simply because it wasn’t big enough. And no one can forget the cast’s exodus through the audi- ence singing, “All Aboard For Broadway.” George M. turned out to be a memory-making as well as a memory-provoking production. Two may be company and three a crowd, but Dana Jacoby, Paul Lytkowski and Sue Howardson, the more the merrier for bringing in 1907. Not only did good cheer come in with the New Year, but “good fortune as George M. hands over his earnings to his family. 78 Spring Musical ABOVE: The excitement of New Year's Eve was highlighted by Todd Fenstermaker's reading telegrams congratulating George Cohan for his fine performances. BELOW: A New Year’s toast to the glassless Colie Brice, Pat Devlin, Sue Boehm, and Sheyn Brezniak, as Aldesman Haley, the Mayor and spectators, demonstrate the true test of their acting ability. A Concerred Effort Like a finely-tuned instrument, this year’s chorus sounded good under any circumstances. At the December concert at Woodbridge Cen- ter, the chorus had to wait a half-hour before being led to an impossibly small “stage.” There they were to be accompanied by an electric synthesizer instead of their usual piano. Weekly practices, however, had developed the chorus’s performance skills and their voices so that the show was as successful as all their other con- certs. The group, naturally, devoted itself to singing. Money from candy and wrapping paper sales was spent solely on transportation and costum- ing. Besides Woodbridge, the Concert Chorus performed in a half-dozen or so other shows, ending with a high note at the school’s Spring Concert. As Mr. Tripold said, “We’re not any different from any other club; we also want to be the best.” To ensure the concert’s success, the Chorus and Concert band ended their perfor- mance with the “Hallelujah Chorus. 80 Concert Chorus The upcoming concert brings the chorus together for yet another practice. The baritone voices of Todd Fenstermaker, Matt Bauer. Paul Travisano. Shaun Ferguson, and Joe Condiracci were the “highlight” of “Amo Amas.” The holiday concert was a big success, partly because of the time spent rehearsing the various musical roles. Pianists Re- nee Blanda and Debbie Jacheo start yet another practice session. Concert Chorus 81 Squeezing Inro First Place Full of action, excitement, conflicts, some comedy, and a happy ending. Sound interesting? Well, the description above explains this year’s Fall Pep Rally. The gathering of the whole student body and the faculty in the football stadium, the announcements of each sports team, the spirited music of the Bomber Band, and the Bad Cat Competition set a highly spirited mood. New this year, the Class Competition’s “pass the orange’’ event, was a “rip roaring’’ success for Seniors. The Bad Cat Competition brought out the loudest in the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore classes. The Seniors, excited about gradu- ation, strutted out of the Pep Rally with the Bad Cat Award. . Not satisfied with winning one competition, they proved to be the true heroes as they “squeezed into first place for the Class Competition. So far the Pep Rally seemed quite vicious, but the en- trance of the five leading ladies, Homecoming Queen candi- dates; Elissa Unkel, Lynn O’Sullivan, Barbara Fulham, Sher- iann Squicciarini, and Michele Dzergoski, brightened the day and provided relief for sore throats. Adding comic relief were a variety of sophomores, juniors, and seniors dressed up according to the theme of their floats or their favorite Halloween “spirits . As usual, the only “low moment was the announcement to return to classes. Hey Steve! But which one? Steve Koprovich, Steve Chudkowski. and Steve Haspel could all be answering this call while they participate in the 1983 preHomecoming Pep Rally. LEFT: Why are these people so happy? If you were a member of the County Championship Girls’ Field Hockey Team you’d have something to cheer about too! Above: “Orange-ya Smart?” Winning one of the class competition events not only took brains, but the coordination of Jim Barkowitz and Senior Advisor Mrs. Carosh. 82 The frigid weather didn't lower the spirits of the sophomores; if anything they souncfed S-U-P-E-R. The Class of ’85 attempted to shake up the sen- ior advantage and explode into the lead of the class competitions as they rallied for the Bad Cat Award. Pep Rally 83 The newest Mickey Mouse Club turned out to be the best as the Junior Class worked together to win the Homecoming float competition. Whar Is Homecoming? What is Homecoming? A good game, some pretty smiles, a colorful parade of floats, and a few memo- ries. How will Homecoming ’83 be remembered? The Bomber football team gave an aggressive ex- hibition in their play. Although the final scoreboard favored Woodbridge the crowd caught the Home- coming spirit and cheered their support throughout. Spectators really came alive during halftime of the football game. The Bomber Band presented its regular halftime show, simultaneously featuring brass solos, a flag toss, and flashy marching maneu- vers. Meanwhile, the class floats lined up for the judg- ing. The theme of each float depicted popular car- toon characters. The smurfs sophomore class float donned the home color of Bomber Blue. Mickey Mouse, the junior class production enthralled the spectators when its multi-colored balloons were re- leased, foreshadowing their win. The brightly col- ored senior crayons accompanied the senior Peanut creation. Last but not least, Strawberry Shortcake ap- peared in the person of newly crowned and tearful queen. Elissa Unkel. The alumni were the last to leave, perhaps savoring some of the festive atmo- sphere once again. An expectant Lynn O’Sullivan traversed the aisle, hopeful of victory as homecoming queen. After having just been named Homecoming Queen '83. and overjoyed Elissa Unkel flashes her victory smile. 84 Homecoming This fall, the Peanuts Gang turned out to cheer on the Bombers, with a little help from the senior class. After seemingly endless hours of hard work, the Sophomore float committee proudly dis- played their masterpiece, Smurf Bowl.

The greatest achieve- ment these students gain is state or even National recog- nition. This year these students sold case after case of candy, not for a party or a trip at the end of the year, but to pay the costly fees that are required to take tests and to fund end of year awards. “This group is the only place outside of a math class where a student can deal wholly with mathematics, its concepts and applications,” commented advisor Dr. Evanovich.

Marching To The Dear Of Achievement There is one group of over one hundred students whose activities keep them busy all year round, sometimes requir- ing as much as five meetings per week at two or more hours per meeting. Because of their musical affiliations, however, they cannot be termed “unsung, particularly not for this year's achievements. The Bomber Marching Band culminated its season in April with a trip to Toronto for the International Music Festival. After scoring their highest ever, a 67.4, and earning two second places, band and band front members rallied togeth- er for more hard work and more than a little fun at this opportunity to travel and make new friends. It almost made their fundraising efforts of brushes, bumper stickers, candy, and cheese worthwhile when many band members went without having to personally finance the trip. Head Director Mr. Shaner attested to this year’s band being the best in his career at SWMHS and emphasized that the best part of the year was “seeing and hearing the end result of months of hard work applauded sincerely by a caring audience.

Primarily, they take responsibility for keeping the SWMHS community cognizant of its environment. Student members learn more about nature. Finally, the group works to create a more pleasant and attractive place in which to be. Candy sales and ecology-minded plant sales at the Arts fair funded the club’s efforts. Altruistically, the club donated flowers to Senior citizens, and provided wreaths for the offices of Dr. Parnell and Mr. Dill. Leftover funds earned club members an in- depth look at the Aquarium in Brooklyn. Ecology club members encourage fellow SWMHS citizens to keep the school clean and attractive. Advisor Mrs. Mackin felt that the positive attitude promoted by the club and the aid the club provided in promoting lifetime friendships were its strong points.

At first glance the club members seem ordinary enough, just a group of students meeting once a month to decide what they want to do. Once the decision is made, though, their scientific minds come to the fore. Taking advantage of the club to do things that there was no time for in class, the club members have already experimented to see the ef- fects of radiation on seeds, and have dissected cow’s eyes and sheep’s hearts. President Beth Kwiatkowski and treasurer Jacque Kuran also led the group on a trip to the museum of Natural History, and sponsored a M M sale to raise money for graduation awards. When asked what she felt made her club different from others, Advisor Mrs. Romano replied, “We combine scientific ex- periments with social interests.’’ BIOLOGY CLUB: FRONT: Neil Patel.

Science Clubs 101 An Olympic Evenr In SWMHS The sports Olympics isn't the only big event taking place in 1984. There is, of course, the Olympics of the Mind competition. Since October, the creative, far-sighted OM members have been working toward the spring competition with open minds and busy hands. Divided into teams, each group was assigned a long term problem. Solution found, they spent hours drilling their solutions to their problems. Confusing? Well, some long-term problems the '84 OM team had to conquer were “The Chariots of Rescue’’ in which a chariot was to be constructed using the weight and limited body movements to operate it. Then a method of rescuing the endan- gered objects is to be formulated. SWMHS’s “Greeks’’ riding and designing the chariot were Matt Bauer, Rich Butchko, Paul Travisano, Jeff Reagan, Shaun Ferguson, and Gail Travisano. Another group’s project included the Strategy Structure that was to be designed out of balsa wood and glue. Racing against time to be perfected was the object of the project called the Mousemobile Relays in which a vehicle was to be constructed and ener- gized by a mouse-trap. The faster and more accu- rate it was, the more points were scored. Another problem solved by an OM group was the rewriting of Moby Dick. Using slides, paintings, and sculptures, 136 chapters were realistically visualized. With the solutions found and the teams in con- stant training the '84 Olympics of the Mind team will be fit to repeat its outstanding performance of last year’s world competition. 102 Olympics Of Olympics of the Mind: Front: Mark llerdi, Peter Berger, Patty Tauber, Paul Travisano, Shaun Ferguson, Jim Curotto, Marc Weinstein.

Considered a volunteer service or- ganization by advisor Mrs. Simko, Li- brary Council members spent their homeroom, study, and or lunch periods keeping the library running smoothly. In addition to delivering overdues, checking in and stamping out books, and tending to the “Book Hospital, every member was as- signed a particular stack or group of books to keep in order. Twenty-five sophomores, juniors, and seniors made up this year’s council. Officers are chosen every spring so the club can get down to business early in September. President Tina Castello, Vice President Lisa Von Tish, Secretary Cindy Hahn, and Treasurer Cindy Harrigan collected dues and ran two candy sales and a bake sale. That brought in enough money to pay for a bus and tickets to see the Broadway play 42nd Street, the Christmas buffet, and the end-of-the-year party. The trip and parties may sound like a lot of fun, but there was always much work to be done in the library. “I couldn't run it by myself, com- mented Mrs. Simko, “these kids are the best!

The Future Secretaries of America is an organization aimed at developing professional social skills. The FSA, be- ing different from other clubs, consists only of seniors. They meet once a month to organize and plan class relat- ed activities. For instance, this fall, they had a representative from Mary Kay cosmetics visit the school to dis- cuss some of the responsibilities in- volved in the secretarial jobs. With the money raised from a candy sale, the FSA plans on having an em- ployee employer banquet in the spring. An early highlight of the year was a theater trip to see “Annie.” Just belonging to the FSA provided students a chance to talk to profes- sional business people and learn more about the business world. This gave FSA members a headstart on the com- petition once again. A high school organization called the Future Busi- ness Leaders of America under the guidance of Mrs. Whalen have truly outdone themselves this year. At their first attempt at the Regional Competition at Rider College, FBLA went home victoriously with nine winners. FBLA was primarily designed to develop leader- ship qualities and a sense of accomplishment in the complex area of business studies through diversified competitions. Most of the time, the members of FBLA are busy at their fundraisers, such as candy sales, holiday and fall wreaths, and a carwash in the spring. The money raised went toward regional and state competitions, leadership conferences, com- munity projects, and an end-of-the-year party and trip. The wreaths were made as a community pro- ject for the senior citizens. Added to their yearly events were visits to various community businesses which has given FBLA members a broader view of business administration. According to Mrs. Whalen Members develop a sense a responsibility and acquire both leadership qualities, and a sense of community involvement.” At the start of this year’s FSA induction, President Beth Brady lights an inspirational candle.

Who needs Taylor Business Institute when Sayreville’s own DECA program provides a seemingly equal prepara- tion for the business world? Headed by advisor Miss Car- osh, students involved in DECA received practical under- standing of the business world, and realistic views of their roles in their future fields. In-class instruction and on-the-job-training not only prepared the students for regional competitions, but mo- tivated them too. Such motivation led the students to sell stuffed animals, candy, poster calendars, mugs, and musical Valentine cards. The money earned from these sales went towards their participation in the Regional Competition at the American Resorts Hotel, the N.J. Competition, the Employer Employee dinner at the East Brunswick Chateau, and certificates awarded to honor- able members and their employers. This spirit also brought awards and pride to the DECA program as they competed successfully in the Regional and State competitions. Out of the 49 schools that at- tended, 18 SWMHS students were winners. Some overall winners were Georgina Macaluso in Finance and Credit; John Bardowski in Food Marketing; Debbie Baron in Gen- eral Marketing; Gary Bialkowski in Service Station Retail- ing; and lastly to Nanine Climber for Accounting. Such displays of productivity will make any DECA member a success in the business world. New Bestseller How did the New Reading for Pleasure Club come about? “It grew out of common interests, Mrs. Lasko, the club founder and advisor, replied. Dozens of students, whether voracious readers or not, re- sponded enthusiastically to Mrs. Lasko’s pioneering. Each meeting consisted of no less than twenty members, often as different as the books they read. The club’s most beneficial aspect, Mrs. Lasko felt, was the opportunity it offered students to share their ideas and individual opinions. Besides meet- ings full of discussions, the group's most important event was a school wide book fair held in February, planned to be repeated in '85 because of its suc- cess. Other fundraisers included stuffed animal and bookmark sales, which funded new books and mem- bership cards. In addition, the school’s avid readers were involved in a much awaited “cultural trip. When asked about what books to order for February’s book fair, Mrs. Lasko was quick to suggest her favorites. READING FOR PLEASURE CLUB: FRONT: Dawn Warren, Mary Markulic. Robin Malik.

Pleasure I w The membership of the Women's Varsity Club may be big, but the opinion of its members is always welcome. Sports Women Unite A club initiated in '82 is thriving in it support of women’s sports teams. Called the Women’s Varsity Club, it was, in Miss Lamprecht’s words “a group for women’s sports, both participants and advocates, with the dual purposes of unify- ing and supporting all the school’s female athletes.” The Varsity Club originated at first, with just 24 girls drawn from the field hockey, basketball, and softball teams with the sole purpose of financing their seasons. In the 83- 84 year, this club received a formal title and expanded to include cheerleading, swimming, track, tennis, coaches and just plain fans. As the Women’s Varsity Club expands hope- fully the support and interest in women’s sports will follow. The money made selling candy, mugs, weepies and re- freshments at the girl’s games went for end-of-the-season dinners and banquets, team jackets, and club shirts, finan- cial assistance at sports camps, and a camping trip. Some of the money was also set aside for scholarships. The Women's Varsity Club provided some much-needed support for wom- en’s sports teams. When President Heidi Klein has the floor, everyone in the Women’s Varsity Club participates. Collecting candy money from Dara Engleheart is just one of the duties of advisors Miss Ryan and Miss Mauer of the Women’s Varsity Club.

Uno, Deux, Drei For All, And All From SWMHS With a little help from Pattie Chirico, Dawn Warren, and their friends Dr. Pepper and Coke, the Spanish Club Fiesta was a success. The Spanish Club was a great discovery to all those who attended the Columbus Day Party. The hard work of its seventy-two members throughout the year not only insured that fun was had by all, but the Spanish Club maintained its reputation for getting things done. Each member was given a membership card and every Spanish class was equipped with a Spanish dictionary, compliments of the group’s fund raising efforts. High points of the year were many. First, the arrival of Circulo Espanol shirts, in grey with red lettering, brought the group enthusiastically together. Then club members had dinner at ChiChi’s, for more than a taste of Spanish culture. The annual Language Festival found Spanish Club members “up” for the occasion, actually up and dancing. (Didn't want to be outdone by the French Club, huh?) Finally club mem- bers presented their own Spanish version of The Wizard of Oz to the junior high during Foreign Language Week. When asked what was the best aspect of the year, advisor Miss C. Kwiatkowski reponded that despite its large enroll- ment, all members seemed to be involved this year.

Parlez-vous francais? Eloquence in spoken French is not a requirement for member- ship in the French Club—just having an interest in French culture is enough. A favorite cultural as- pect with club members has been producing and devouring French cuisine. Perhaps running a close second has been maintaining international penpals. Officers Tom Miglin, Joanne Seminaro, and Marc Weinstein set the festive pace of the year with a “Jour de la toussaint, otherwise known as All Saints Day party in October. Not only did club members prepare the food for this celebration, but for December’s annual Language festival, they produced entertainment as well, in the form of a costumed can-can. The fun didn’t stop mid-winter, however, as club members worked hard selling candy to earn a gourmet evening in New York. Advisor Mrs. Parks summed up her feelings about the year, “It's wonderful to see a group of students work hard toward a common goal, and have fun doing it.” FRENCH CLUB: FRONT: Tracy Janco, Lisa Silva, Lisa Cupo, AnnMarie Ferraro, Regina Ferraro, Renee Borup, Loretta Bird, Susan Miller.

It’s a traditional message around SWMHS every fall, and could be the trademark for the group that uses it. Perhaps you’re even a sweet-toothed Goldbaren- Lieber yourself? Of course, Gummy Bears aren't just for sweet- tooths; they're for animal lovers, and fun loving Ger- man club members, too. Why did these fun-lovers choose to sell Gummy Bears, taffy, and lollipops? To have even more fun, especially at the Foreign Lan- guage Festival and during the trip to the New York City theatre. How did Advisor Mrs. Hazners feel the club dif- fered from others? “We’re concerned with foreign lifestyle and culture,” replied the natively European advisor. She felt that membership in such an organi- zation assisted students in gaining maturity as well as just enjoying themselves. Language Clubs 111 ABOVE: The elusive Bomber obviously enjoyed this year’s Language Festival.

Language Clubs 113 Images Of Creative Talenr Meeting “when all materials are in and whenever necessary” Mr. Pat Mar- otta established a deceptively relaxed pace in his first year as Images advisor. Actually the work wasn’t always that easy, as the staff of Images had to de- cide what poems, stories, and artwork would make it into the annual literary magazine. Helping Editor-in-Chief Jon Persons with the work were the following edi- tors: Robin Malik, poetry, Mary Marku- lic, short story, and Wayne Schwartz, art. Unlike most other clubs, the Im- ages staff had no fund raisers, but in- stead concentrated on their literary work. The staff was rewarded at the end of the year with a party and dinner. In this club, although only a small group of students was actually in the staff, working on the magazine, the whole school was encouraged to par- ticipate. “The final product is a show- case of the students' writing talents,” Mr. Marotta commented. “It gives the students an opportunity to gain expo- sure for their work.” 114 Images Group input is what makes Im- ages a quality publication. Here the staff holds a regular meeting to review the latest submissions. With the cover of Images the ob- ject of today's meeting. Art Edi- tor Wayne Schwartz contributes an idea.

Since an editor-in-chief's work is never done, eight people were chosen by for- mer advisor, Mrs. Shur, to be editors of different areas. Current adivsor Mrs. Mischne described these editors as “super.” To produce a quality paper, editors and staff checked in with each other daily and attended regular staff meetings once a month. The editors also met daily for a week of proofing and laying out before each issue was distributed to the stu- dent body. The staff held continual candy sales to cover the cost of typing paper, film, printing pa- per, and pizza parties for occasional late sessions working toward a deadline or polishing an idea. The rewards for all this hard work may not appear great, but Mrs. Mischne was quick to point out that the students had a marvelous opportuni- ty to express themselves, whether seriously or humorously.” ABOVE RIGHT: Not only are the opinions of SWMHS’s stu- dents published, but with the help of Editorial Editor Paul Travisano, Art Editor Traci Lecesse can “picture them too.

Running Around The Year-Book Quest for Unifying and Opening our Views As we aspire and Devote to Improve our Sentient outlook in Life. Good things, like the yearbook, may come out only once a year, but the staff worked the year ’round towards completion of Quo Vadis '84. Beginning in April '83 this years' staff was assem- bled and meetings were held weekly or semiweekly. Although school let out in June, Quo Vadis staff met in July and August to get a head start on their first deadline. Being that it was around 90 during the Au- gust meeting the Quo Vadis staff made a big splash in Laura Krajewski's pool. Fall turned staffers into eager salespeople circulating such fundraisers as candy sticks, calendars, greeting mats, and stationery. October and November put such quotes as “Jim, there's spaghetti on my leg,’’ and, “There is a perma- nent hole in my dead,’’ down in Quo Vadis history. Layout Editor John Darroch continued to amuse the staff by donning paraphernalia like a gas mask, a pair of bunny ears, and his “Mush melon hat. Assistant Sports Editor Heide Klein surprised everyone when she wrapped herself up as a birthday gift for Editor-in- Chief Susan Miller. December 22 was an important date for Quo Vadis, as it marked the first major dead- line and a “Thriller of a Christmas party. Much holi- day spirit abounded when jolly Bob Damato showed up with everyone’s favorite food, PIZZA! The night ended with a walk in the snowy park and plans to go ice skating the following week. January and February meant hectic deadlines, but as usual the staff pulled together and had a decent time doing it. As March rolled around so did the last yearbook deadline, bringing the circle of friends that had formed within the staff together with increasing anticipation of seeing the finished product.

And Early After battering their brains on oral and written exams, the twelve select team members tensely awaited the BRITE event, it being their participation in the Bridgewater-Raritan Invitational Tournament of Excellence. After in- tense preparation through individual study and group brain-storming ses- sions, the teams were then power matched (lowest against highest) where they eagerly looked forward to the three competitive rounds, each oc- curring on successive Thursdays. The second tournament, The Perth Amboy Second Annual Decathalon of Knowledge, started bright and early at 8:00 on Saturday morning. They com- peted right up until 5:00. Here com- petitors were randomly matched, giv- ing each group a better chance to ex- cel. The prize for the winner was a $1000 Scholarship, which was award- ed to the person the winning school deemed most deserving. All twelve team members, Captain Matt Bauer, Rich Butchko, Cindy Harri- gan, Dave Parinello, Paul Platkin, Jo- seph Volosin, Joe Condiracci, Tom Mc- Carthy, Alak Prasad, Marc Weinstein, Ian Weisberg, and alternate Jim McCracken shone brightly throughout the competitions, calmly facing the most mind boggling questions present- ed to them. In the words of Mrs. Sutherland, “Competitions like this bring only benefits, they expand the students’ general knowledge and make them think quickly under pressure, which is the truest test of the intellectual mind.” LEFT: During ACT tryouts, Jim McCracken and Joe Condiracci lis- ten carefully to the questions. BE- LOW: During tryouts, Alak Prasad, Larry Reisman, and Steve Maldony aggressively competed for an op- portunity to represent their school. All In A Day's Work Being the superintendent of a school system is not a job just anyone can handle. It takes pa- tience, dedication, and much I more. It involves dealing with I many people, from students I and teachers to officials from I the state department, making I reports, visiting each of the I schools to see what is going on, I looking in on classes, and at- I tending many meetings. In the past two years at this I job, Dr. Parnell has progressed I toward some of her aims. She I explained, “It takes a long time I for some of these goals to be I reached successfully.” For in- stance, she hopes to consoli- date the schools, make the overall school system as effi- cient as possible, and meet the challenge of declining enroll- I ment. Dr. Parnell recognized I the severity and possible per- I manence of the latter situa- I tion. ‘‘It’s sad ... As principal I I had the problem of having too many students. It is just the op- I posite now,” she commented. I In the future, Dr. Parnell I would like to improve the cur- I riculum. She pinpointed ex- panding the computer program and strengthening mathemat- ical and writing skills as short term priorities. She’d also like to encourage the appreciation of art and add a string program to the music offerings. Dr. Parnell cited the variety of regular workday affords as a positive aspect of her position. Another advantage of her job is setting the scene for new projects and then watching their realization. wamm Mrs. B. Anderson Mr. C. Boehm Mrs. B. Bowes Mr. R. Corman Mr. F. Fingerlin Mrs. G.

Can you name all nine muses? To clear up any mythological legend, visit room A237 and ask for SWMHS's expert, Mrs. Marie Carltock. A love of mythology and folklore came quite natu- rally to Mrs. Carltock. Choosing to study Latin, Greek, and ancient civil- izations in high school and college, she came across the myths of the Greeks and Romans again and again. Mrs. Carltock enjoys the positive student re- sponse she observes in her Mythology students. In fact, she would like to see Mythology expand to a full year course at SWMHS so she could in- clude folklore from around the world. She would also like to teach foreign languages, but she realizes that not too many SWMHS students are in- terested in Latin. Mrs. Carltock’s interest in Mythology extends far beyond the classroom. She has already visited London and explored the British Museum. She would especially like to visit Greece, but she ad- mits that it would take at least two months to do and see everything. Until she can make the actual trip, Mrs. Carltock will continue to enjoy Greece through the literature she covers as part of her teaching. Being the director of Sayreville's theatrical productions as well as an English teacher, Mr. Piccuirro often expresses his thoughts through a dramatic quote, such as, “All the world’s a stage and the men and women are merely players .

Faculty 127 Teachers Are For those of you who day- dream during class instead of paying attention, have you ever wondered about that person in the front of the class? If you have thought that these people were born and raised in the teacher's room, you’re wrong! What could have motivated these menacing mentors into the teaching profession? Quo Vadis surveyed the school's teaching body for some of the answers. For instance, Mrs. Kadi became interested in working with children when she began babysitting as a teen. Loving school since she was a little girl led Mrs. Ludlow into the teach- ing profession. They may scold, sometimes and often give an overabundance of homework, and detention, but most of the staff here at SWMHS agree that the opportunity to be with teens and sharing their ideas and pro- jects led them to teaching. But what if there was no need for teachers, then what would some of SWMHS's teachers have done? Her love for animals made Miss Sunski consider be- coming a veterinarian. Miss M. Kwiakowski feels that her avid interest in the world of science might have recommended a ca- reer in medicine. A little food for thought Mr. P. Marotta's decla- ration that he would have gone into the restaurant business. Ms. Sutherland might have gone down in history as a breeder of thoroughbred horses. Everyone knows what we stu- dents do over the summer-work, go to the beach, lay around, but what about the teachers at the SWMHS? Don't they stay here all summer and think of all the work they can give us students next year? In fact, faculty sum- mer activities seemed to be as diversified as those of the stu- dents. It’s far from ironic that Librarian, Mrs. Simko, took her nose out of travel books and maps and actually visited Eur- ope this summer. Nine monthr of teaching wasn't enough fo Mrs. Kaskoff, Miss Lamprech and Miss Johnson who taugh summer school. Recreatione athletes, Mrs. Kadi, Mrs. Moore and Mr. Shaner spent much c their summers sailing, golfing and playing tennis respective!) Believe it or not, not one facult member mentioned preparin for September as a major acti' ity yet the most popular activii practiced by SWMHS’s faculi was relaxation. (Wait a minu1 they sound like real people. Ho did that happen?) 128 Curriculum People, Too! Not only does Mrs. Nardino plan on allowing her students practice in baking cookies this week, but this advice on how to be successful may be useful: Nothing wonderful has ever been achieved by those who did not believe that something in- side them was superior to circum- stance.

Faculty 129 Sunshi's Travels Everyone knows the in- school Miss Sunski as the gym teacher who makes sure everyone runs around the goal posts. Likewise, the after-school Miss Sunski is reputed as a coach whose teams win. Teachers are people too, though, and some of Miss Sunski’s favorite “extra curricular activities are camping and fishing. Every summer she spends six weeks camp- ing. Over the years she’s visited historic places like Harper's Ferry, and re- sort areas like Tampa and Daytona Beach. With her van, her dog, and a trusty 10’ x 8’ cabin tent, Miss Sunski has traveled all over the country, and plans another cross-coun- try trip this summer. “Camping, she says, “is a great way to relax, and it doesn’t cost a fortune. Miss Sunski first en- joyed camping with her family when she was young, but she didn’t real- ly get serious about it until she was out of college. She’s currently planning to try cross-country skiing and winter camping. When asked if she ever caught any fish worth tell- ing about, Miss Sunski said, “No! She does like to fish for flounder and trout, though. Once she was in Yellowstone when she came upon a moose in a stream, and got close enough to take a picture. It wasn’t until later on that she found out that moose can be very unpre- dictable, and one shouldn’t get too close to them. Another time, when primitive camping, all her food was up in a tree except for a loaf of bread. A raccoon came along and dragged the loaf away, and growled at Miss Sunski when she went near it. Predictably she spent the rest of the trip “breadless.” 130 Faculty Miss J. Ryan Physical Ed. Mrs. J. Sforza Humanities Mr. K. Shaner Humanities Mrs. D. Parks Language Arts Mr. J.

I know that this is a high school. I realize that Sayreville uses “the bomber” for its mascot. Unfortunately, I believe I am the victim of circumstance, or, of a hearty practical joke. While walking, or might I say running, to my homeroom, I came across a . . . well, a being. Not human, kind of like a bomb. He was scampering to the C wing, where most of the workshop classes were being held. I felt it my duty, and my responsibilty to cut all classes to see what was going on. Little did I know that I might regret it later. This funny, little blue-gray bomb, with stubby legs, clean sneakers, skinny arms and gloved hands, scampered to the first few classrooms, as I cautiously peered after him. This creature of wonder’s facial features (or should I say bomb features) crinkled into a look of surprise as he ob- served Mr. Resh’s Stage Design class busily working on their next project. Waddling on, he was scared into a few hops, skips and jumps as he passed the woodshop and metalshop equipment humming loudly. He was really moving, so-to- speak, so I assumed the metalshop equipment might have been very threatening. Bad memories, I reasoned. The little bomber paused near auto shop, seemingly awed, by the large cars; again he scampered on. Electronic shop seemed to be even more of a shocking experience: the bomber jumped back just as Mr. Riker connected a couple of live wires and the the bell sounded. During the rush between periods, the bomb disappeared around the corner. A circular discussion gives each of these A.P. English students an opportunity to express their feelings on different topics. Fueling up for the rest of the day. the hungry Bomber indulges in an SWMHS special- The Super Bomber Instead of giving Joyce Winkler the answer to her A.P. History question. , Ms. Sutherland helps her go through her notes to locate it herself. 134 Curriculum Taking a minute to display his directing expertise, Mr. Piccuirro uses every chance he gets to perfect the performance. Fun with a frisbee is in Mr Helwig's lesson plans for his spring classes. I hurried around the corner, worried I would lose sight of the bomb. The B hall was filled with students hurrying to class, stopping at their lockers, trying to catch a minute with their friends. I couldn’t see the bomber among the crowd, so I tried jumping up—that didn’t help. I ducked down to see if I could glimpse his feet, and sure enough, there they were, those skinny little legs and white sneakers heading straight for Mrs. Mackin's Biology room. After the hall had cleared, I looked again. The bomber was waddling towards B12 leaving a blue-gray smudge on the glass of the door to B6. He disappeared into the Chemistry room, but came running out in a cloud of smoke. What? As he put the small fire out and cautiously looked in on the Physics class next door, I took a peek into Miss Kwiatkows- ki's room. A-ha! They use bunsen burners during Chemistry labs. Close call. The bomber stopped a minute to look in on Mrs. Ro- mano's Biology class, too, but he was still a little nervous from the bunsen burners. He scooted around the left to explore the lower A hall, I almost had to run to keep up . . . During a mutual planning period Mr. Koenigsberg and Mr. Malanowski work together to round out the vocabulary section of the English 203 exam. Curriculum 135 We made it to the first Spanish classroom before the bell rang. Standing by the door was Miss Kwiatkowski, and the bomb and I paused by her side to watch the A- B intersection. Fascinating! When I turned back to in- troduce myself to the bomber, he was gone. I searched all around me. but he was nowhere to be seen. At first I stood there perplexed, then decided to ask around, I interrupted Mrs. Ludlow’s Spanish II class, “Pero la profesora no lo veo, she replied. I couldn't understand that, but Mrs. Ludlow shook her head as she said it, so I figured it meant she hadn’t seen him. After that experience, I avoided Mrs. Kaskoff’s Spanish room and headed for the German class. Mrs. Hazners hadn't seen him, either, and the gym teachers were busy watching a ferocious line soccer game. (The sen- iors were winning, need you ask?) I didn't ask the nurse, either, because a line of battered, grinning gym evacuees blocked the door to her office. In desperation, I headed back to Miss Kwiatkowski’s room. There I found out that the whole time I had been looking for him, the bomber had been in Miss Kwiat- kowski’s room, looking at the Spanish articles and pic- tures on her bulletin boards. After being exposed to a variety of new languages, the confused Bomber's attempt to communicate fizzles. When looking for help explicating a part of Hamlet, John Miskell turns to none other than Sharon Chiavacci. 136 Curriculum The bell interrupted Miss Kwiatkowski, “Para manana, aqui esta la tarea and the bomber evaded my vision once again. He couldn’t believe all the different business classes going on in our school! At least. I think that was an expression of amaze- ment on his face. (Is that a face?) Never mind. He skipped around from class to class, sticking around as long as he could make sense out of the conversation. The Data Processing room’s comput- ers fascinated him. and I saw him count all of the typewriters at least twice. He spent ten minutes listening to Ms. Carosh teach her Marketing and Distributive Ed. classes, and another fifteen minutes trying to puzzle out the adding machines in Mrs. Haltli's room. At one point, I thought the bomber was actually going to try his hands at Steno, but the bell rang, and he took off towards the auditorium. ABOVE LEFT: Unable to relax like this in their regualer curricular schedule, Tom Whitaker and especially John Lakatos take advan- tage of the informal atmosphere of the Fall Pep Rally LEFT CENTER: As was expected, the Spanish Club's Columbus Day Fiesta offered an opportunity for students and teachers to cele- brate an American holiday. LEFT: Applying his favorite quote. “Action speaks louder than words, Mr. Simko shows the mea- surements required for Dennis O'Leary’s drafting project.ABOVE: Only an interesting article in Kerrang! could keep Junior Jim Kiernan from the lunch line. ABOVE RIGHT: Teaching five classes a day may be rough for some teachers, but Mr. Szabo’s free 8th period provides him with the perfect time to relax and get some research done for next week’s lessons. Curriculum 137 After the hustle and bustle of the business classes, I needed to take a break. Luckily for me the bomber decided to investigate the Arts wing next. He headed for Mr. Tripold’s room, where the Concert Chorus class was preparing to sing. They weren’t quite ready yet, though, so the bomber skipped over to the auditorium, sending mild shock tremors through the build- ing. There Mr. Piccuirro’s Theatre II class was working on a play one of them had written. Fifth period was Mr. Shaner’s lunch period, so the bomber couldn’t peek in on any music classes. To give the chorus a little more time to warm up, he ran over to the E-wing to see what the art classes were up to. Along the way he stopped to look in the display windows in the E- windows. I wanted to stay and look at them a little longer, but the bomber had already gone into Mr. Resh’s Fine Arts class. When I got there, one of the students was trying to get him to sit for a portrait, but the bomber was in a hurry to hear the chorus before the period ended. He turned around and ran back down the hall. There was just time to hear a song before the period ended. The bomber hung around the room until the band members began to arrive next door. Humming to himself the bomber waddled to the nearest staircase, and climbed them quickly especially considering all of his weight. I followed more slowly. I wasn’t sure I'd make it through eight periods. Whew! ABOVE: The lives of Library Council members are no open and shut book. Mrs. Simko takes pride in teaching Stacy Jablonski and Janet Poetsch the correct way to locate a card in the overdue file. BELOW: With a full day of school ahead, the lonely Bomber dreams of some extra- curricular activities. 138 Curriculum As Miss Joseph helps Lisa Klein find some appropriate quotes for her essay, she points to one of her favorites by Oscar Wilde: “We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars. Still humming, the bomber popped into the upper A hall just as the bell rang to begin sixth period. The bomber looked on in amazement as five English teachers stum- bled wearily out of their rooms to take a lunch break. Mr. Piccuirro, Mrs. Carltock, Mr. Koenigsberg and Mr. Marotta made their way down the hall slowly enough, but for the fifth teacher, walking was an obvious effort. She was the battle-weary Mrs. Cop- pinger, who needed the time to recover from her fifth period AP English students whom she lovingly refers to as “apes. She mumbled something about Ms. Joseph be- ing lucking enough to have her junior “ape class eighth period, allowing her the whole day to recuperate. Sobered by this glimpse of how SWMHS teachers look after forty-three minutes of coping with us students, the bomber and I tiptoed to the door of Mrs. Jardula’s sopho- more English class, then across the hall to see Mrs. Mischne's juniors. Going a little far- ther down the hall, the bomber visited Mrs. Bodnar's study hall and senior detention, always a popular class. We found out that Mrs. Lasko, that brave soul, was downstairs taking a one-period break from English to help the nurse (all those grinning, bloodied line soccer players again.) The bomber did stop to peek in on the various activities in Mr. Malanowskj's and then Mrs. Mills' classes, however, be- fore the period ended. In appreciation that his last contract is corrected, Mr. Doll sits back to relax and looks forward to the rest of the day. Right: All work and no play makes a dull faculty? Mr. Dill and Mrs. Parks take a few minutes to unwind at the French Club party. Curriculum 139 After checking out the English classes, the bomber looked a little overwhelmed. (He should try writing my Hamlet essay.) He seemed to perk up a bit, though, as he waddled off down the hall and disappeared into a room. Who’s room is that? Wait, he’s coming ... gee, that baseball cap looks silly perched on top of his head like that. Mr. Gozora’s period seven U.S. History I class must be in full swing. The bomber took a quick tour, running in and out of Mr. Doll’s room, and popping into Mr. Cheskin’s class for just a minute before heading over to A228 to learn about Henry Clay’s contributions to American government. With just a few minutes left in the period, the bomber hopped around to see the few history classes left. I wondered if he realized he was probably making SWMHS history right now. I let him go off on his own while I rested my aching feet. When the bell rang to end 7th period, I got up and stumbled after the bomber. Keep- ing up with him was turning out to be as much work as a regular day of school. Above: Being willing to get involved is a good quality in a teacher. Here, Mrs. McCormack joins an after school circle of students. TOP: Always eager to help, Mr. Os- borne gives Carolyn Butitta an encouraging smile, along with her test. ABOVE: After a long day of teaching, Miss Weir and Mrs. Romatowski welcome the beginning of their weekends. ABOVE RIGHT: The opportunity to trade may be rare at SWMHS.; however, Shaun Cochran attempts to explain a computer error in his program to Mr. Gifillan. RIGHT: Not only are his calculations blown out of proportion, but the Bomber will be too if he runs out of time. 140 Curriculum Throughout the course of the day Ms. Lamprecht does far more than just teach Biology. She always makes time to talk to students like Vanessa Carney who could wander in to ask about the next Varsity Club Meeting, pick up candy, or just say “hi as they go about their daily travels through the SWMHS. The bomber had still not visited any of the math classes, so to start eighth period, he popped into Miss Sowa’s Alge- bra II class, then into the computer room where Mr. Brown was teaching his class how to do “loops.” In the next room, the bomber took in a few minutes of Dr. Evanovich's Trigo- nometry class. On his way to Mr. Osborn’s Geometry class, the bomber almost waddled right into Mrs. McCormack and Miss John- son, who were using their planning periods to make a test up for their Algebra II classes. They had just come from the C corridor, where Dr. Marotta was using his period of hall duty to explain his theory of life. The bomber was intrigued by his ideas at first, but he opted instead to take a peek into Mr. Gilfillan’s study classroom. As the period came to an end, there was enough time for the bomber to visit Miss Weir’s room. I thought he would stop then, but he took off again, dodg- ing in between students in the crowded hallway. Where was he going now? I gave up as he neared the boys' locker room. My day with the bomber was over . . . Writing requires more than physical effort as demonstrated here by the English 402 students Donna Callahan, Lisa Daidone, Erich Bremer, and George Janson.

What would you do in preparation for this most excit- ing day? Maybe you would go clothes shopping or possibly start stacking up your pens and pencils? Or maybe you would just make sure you were dressed and on time? When questioned, most incoming sopho- mores agreed that they would probably come to school with either: A) An open and eager mind B) A brush, a comb, makeup, and all of the basic beauty essentials C) Gum, candy, or their nails for easy access when under pressure D) Not even come to school until the next day At what time would you set your alarm clock? Most replied, the usual 6:00 or 6:30, but two worldly wise sophomores exclaimed, “We don't have an alarm clock: we have a mother!’’ What is the best thing you've heard about SWMHS? Of course most agreed that it was either the freedom, the sports, or the Senior half days, but a few ironically implied that they liked the idea that they would again be getting a fresh start. As for the worst thing about SWMHS, more homework was the top vote followed closely by harder courses and mid-year exams. Altogether, the unanimous reaction to the first day of SWMHS was that it wasn’t too bad after all. The vibrant new class of ’86 seemed as full of promise as their upcoming years at SWMHS. 144 Underclass ABOVE: Fighting off cold weather while playing It Was Almost Like A Song wasn't an easy task for Ann Marie Lajewski.

Sophomore Adrienne Ciavarro has and is trying to turn her dream of becoming a professional dancer into a reality. Adrienne has been taking dancing lessons for seven years, beginning with tap and most re- cently concentrating on jazz. Serious about performing, Adrienne has worked hard toward perfecting her craft. She practices from one to one and a half hours a day at home, three and a half to four hours on Tuesdays at dancing school, plus time spent participating in recitals, competitions, or char- ity events she is invited to perform in. Of all her performances, the most memorable she named as the annual Sayreville Talent Shows (where, over the years, she’s received six first places and two second places) and the invita- tional Garden State Teen Arts Festival in 1981. Why is Adrienne willing to work so hard? She cites personal rewards, such as “People learn more about me when I’m dancing because I’m more expressive.’’ She also projects such fu- ture goals as admission to the High School of the Performing Arts. She’d like to attend Doug- lass College to major in dance, and of course, after college she would like to get a job on Broadway or open her dance studio. ABOVE: Is Kim Oshiro trying to hide her frustration over radicals, or is this how she eliminates the dis- tractions that might call her attention away from Miss Sowa's guidance?

Beyer, Mrs. Nardino, Mrs. E. Whalen, and Miss H. Suli- kowski, began the year’s fundraising efforts with a successful November sale of assorted jewelry. The advisers had carefully chosen this item for this time period to take advantage of pre-holiday gift sales. The sophomores boosted class spirit at both pep assemblies. Although Mr. Szabo encour- aged his homeroom tug-of-war team by don- ning green for the occasion, they were defeat- ed by the assemblage from A201. All those involved, in near hysterical laughter, agreed it was fun, well, to try again next year. Ably led by President Mishyl Krall, Vice Presi- dent Michele D’Alessio, Secretary Suzanne Stevens, and Treasurer Stephanie Smith, the tenth grade class planned second semester candy sales in order to build class “reserves.” All the officers agreed that the highlight of the spring would be the placement of class ring orders.

Sophomores are usually treated like the new kids on the block, who must take a back seat to the juniors and seniors. This “kid,” though, is the focus of a lot of attention. He's Mike Bouchard, one of the football team’s newest defensive standouts. Mike started playing organized football in eighth grade at the junior high. He feels good about this past season, saying, “We are win- ners, no matter what.” Next year, Mike plans to play football again. In the meantime, though, he is concentrat- ing on wrestling, and in the spring he’ll go out for track. Mike has made All County in wres- tling twice and has also won other medals. He’d like to make it to the States in wrestling. Mike would also like to see Sayreville win the State Crown in football, a feat that he doesn’t think is impossible. With a new coach, “who doesn’t fool around,” as Mike is quick to point out, behind him, Mike is likely to reach his goal. Refreshing himself during a timeout, Jim Hanvey also gets some defensive advice from Coach Ciszewski. 150 Underclass Andrea Switzer Ron Szatkowski Valerie Szkodny Leila Tadros Roberta Targonski Rene Tatone Hillary Tischler Kellye Tisdale Christine Toglia Dawn Tomko Lindsay Tran Gail Travisano Marcy Treat Charles Treihart Lisa Tremel Mike Tupkielewicz Neville Udwadia Cathy Ullman Ernie Ulrich Mike Vail Karen Valentine Jim VanWagener Sal Vasile Anthony Vermeal Tom Viola Joe Vitale Dave Volker KellyAnn Vroom Laurie Wedekind Elise Weisberg Liz Weshnak Paul Westbrook Ray Wingerter Bill Wolf Bruce Wolski Melanie Yanas Brian Zajac Stephanie Zalewski Carol Zamorski Laurie Zezenski Ray Zimmerman Ron Zimmerman Carol Ziola Greg Zrebiec Underclass 151 Kenneth Adams Michael Addesso Visanu Aguateesiri Dawn Anderson Andy Antoniewicz Janel Applegate Judy Applegate Sonny Aujla Lori Balas Kevin Bara David Batko Antoinette Baumann Eric Basuino Cindy Bayus Tony Beatrice Louise Becker Lori Bell Debbie Bender Paul Birardi Renee Blanda Bob Bogan Tom Bohling Reyne Borup Doreen Brander Melissa Brandon Veronica Brodzinski BilleeJo Brown Kim Brown Steve Bruno Joey Bruzauskas Danny Buckler Kim Buckley Al Budny Ellen Bulla BettyAnne Burke Maureen Burns Lisa Camerato Vanessa Carney Brian Carr Mark Caruso Steve Casano Jeff Casella Mary Casey Dominick Castlegrant Hanging Around SWMHS Did you ever ask yourself to which group around this school you belong? There are many different hangouts with these respective crowds. For instance, Mrs. Bodnar’s room har- bors its yearbook staff and friends. Some- times, late in the evening, strange sounds are heard in the area of A207: the tapping of typ- ists, the shuffling of shoeless feet, and the an- guished cries of layout editors. Another such hangout is the music wing co-hosted by Mr. Shaner and Mr. Tripold. These areas harbor the actors, actresses, instrumentalists and chorus members. Here, the students meet at I various times of the day, (preferably in the morning,) and discuss just about everything. Conversational topics range from the Fall Dra- ma and the Spring Concert to more personal topics. Or maybe you find yourself sitting around BIO, which is Miss Lamprecht’s room. Varsity Club members are the most numerous regu- lars, and they usually gather around Miss L's desk and ramble about sports, school, and everyday life. There is another attraction in BIO however; if anyone is selling chocolate, Miss L’s group is. Perhaps you don’t like sitting yourself in a room. Many “student bodies’’ find a leisurely walk around the halls is more relaxing. Rather than meet at and stay in one room, these “wanderers” would prefer to walk around the school or check out the outdoor crowd. How about you? t 152 Underclass ABOVE: A quick four minutes between classes gives Scott Piccione, John Tillem, John Narleski, and Jim Starek the chance to pose for the Quo Vadis photographer.

Todd doesn’t find much time to sit down for an inter- view, with accomplishments and activities ranging from play tryouts to band practices to voice lessons. When I finally caught up with Todd, I found him quite an interesting junior, however. Todd was very easygoing during our inter- | view, probably due to his six years acting ex- perience. Todd explained, “I think acting has I been a good experience for me. I'm not afraid of getting up in front of people anymore.” Todd’s hopes of being involved in theatre were realized when he tried out for the Plays in | the Park’s Carousel when he was in the 5th j grade; he got a part in the chorus. Todd contin- '! ued his acting for Plays in the Park in their productions of Gypsy, Oliver, and West Side Story. If that wasn’t enough, he has also ap- peared in Working at Bloomfield College, and the production of Carousel in our own SWMHS. Todd certainly has never shied from the limelight. He’s had the leading role in Oliver. Broadway lights shone of Todd during his tryouts for Evita. He reminisces, “Trying out for a Broadway play was a great experience.” When Todd's not on stage, he can be found in the band room, where his six years of trum- pet playing can be appreciated. It's also possi- ble to find Todd in the chorus room sounding off his voice lessons. Of course, he could be expressing his intelligent, inventive, and cre- ative ideas in Olympics of the Mind practice. College is definitely in the stars for Todd, he claims. His possible majors include Computer Science, Engineering, Theatre, or Vocal Music. For now, Todd is satisfied with a successful high school career. 154 Underclass Roxanne Guzman Andrew Hain Joseph Haines Derek Haley Liz Hall Lisa Harkins Jack Haran Brian Hartman Anthony Haynes Maureen Hays Dawn Heimall Janice Herrick Chris Hill Nancy Hockenjos Nancy Hoehman Helen Hogan Steve Hollender Wendy Holsworth Karen Hong Butch Hoover Fred Hoover Kevin Hourahan Nancy Hufford Jennifer Jablonski Stacy Jablonski Debbie Jacheo Dana Jacoby Tracy Janco Jessica Jorge Joe Kachurick John Kampo Andy Kapsky Matt Kausch Joe Kawalec Jackie Kenny Jim Kiernan Kim Kirk Brenda Kobstad John Koons Renee Kost Leon Krajewski Rich Kranz Pam Krelik Shirley Kulesa Underclass 155 Barry Kupsch Sue Kupsch Jacqueline Kuran Ken Kurczeski Chris Kurtz Ann Marie Lajewski Tom Laniewski Paige Lany John Lapa Dana Larsen Robert Lasko Tom Lasko Karen Leber Traci Leccese Greta Leigh Bill Leonido Michele Lewis Katrina Lloyd Terri Lockwood Sandy Loeffler Richard Lucas Renee Ludwig Charlie Lukie Tom Luther Barbara Lynch Matthew Lynch John Lytkowski Kathy McCartney Tom McCarthy Kevin McFeeley Eric McMillen Barb Malaspina Marie Maliszewski Diane Maloney Greg Mancini Theresa Marino Sheri Martin Joe Mascali Mike Massa James Mathis Jill Mergel Sheri Meyer Suzanne Monopoly Michael Moran Fun-Raising A main concern of the up-and-coming class of '85 has been successful fund raising all year. They sweetened the early months by offering Skittles, Crackles, and Whoppers. A more bal- anced selection was offered after school- —Cheese Doodles, Yankee Doodles, Dipsey Doodles, and Ring Dings. Of course, those Juniors weren’t just doo- dling” around when they won the annual Homecoming float competition, again, with their ducky” rendition of some of Disney’s favorites. (Will they be able to top that again next year?) Just when the Juniors felt that this year was going to be all work and no play, classrings arrived. What a boost to morale!—Enough to inspire pre-holiday fundraising enthusiasm for the Christmas cookie tins and the Valentines Day chocolate heart lollipops. Head advisor, Mrs. J. Sforza cited all the officers as hard workers with overall ’83-’84 goal of a successful Junior prom spurring them on. Those officers included President Tami Strouse, Vice-President Matt Lynch, Secre- taries Janet Poetsch and Jackie Whitton, and Treasurer Paul Birardi.

Or maybe how she stays j so limber? Well, here are the answers. Diane has been on the Girls Gymnastic team since she was a freshman; yet her involvement in gymastics began when she was six years old ; when her father signed her up for lessons. He wanted to help her develop her already strong body. Diane’s most vital supporter is her mother. She says Diane also cites her coach and team- mates as vital to keeping her enthusiasm up, through both high and low moments. What have been Diane’s lowest moments? I One was when she found out she needed sur- gery for her wrist. Later she faced another j hospital stay for repairs to an injured ankle. These impairments did affect her participation because temporarily she could not compete, and was forced to miss a whole year of prac- tice. Diane boasts making the interstate competi- tion level three years in a row. She was espe- ■ dally proud because only two girls are chosen from each age group for this competition. Diane hopes to get a full scholarship to UCLA. As early as fall '83, she had received offers from several colleges. Diane also has a goal to make it to the Olympics in 1988. Diane enjoys helping others and feels gym- nastics has a great deal to offer. She named the following benefits: “It helps me discipline myself, keeps me in shape, gives me a sense of competitiveness, and develops responsibility.’’ No doubt Diane’s dedication has proven worth- . while. 158 Underclass The Juniors really “shook up” the Pep Rally with their wild enthusiasm and school spirit.

V______________________________________________________ 2001 School Days A Biased Account Although after more than two thousand school days it might be expected the members of the Class of '84 to have suffered from severe senioritis, this year’s sen- iors kept their school spirit right up until the end. To keep the cost of the prom down, energetic seniors ran both the football and basketball concession stands, and sponsored a half dozen different kinds of sales. President Michele Dzergoski, Vice President Barbara Fulham, Secretary Ann Marie Steiner and Treasurer Joni Mayer also led their fellow students through nu- merous class competitions-a traditionally strong as- pect of the senior class. Of course, they could be a bit biased, but the senior class advisors felt that the Class of '84 had even more school spirit than the seniors of '83. According to head advisor Mrs. Jardula, the best class memories were of preparing for the Junior and Senior Proms, and the sophomore float competitions. And the worst? “Watching the seniors leave after graduation knowing I won’t be seeing them again. I shall be happy knowing, however, that they are going on to something new and exciting. While reminiscing about their soccer days, sen- iors Mike Eckstrom and Tony Viola discuss what they will be doing at this time next year. 162 Seniors [)AWN ACEVEDO: 10-9 Skytop Gdns., Parlin.

Bulla r Most people have read comic books, although few consider it an im- portant pastime. Nevertheless, senior Rich Butchko has been reading and collecting them since fifth grade when his brother, Robert, started the hob- by. Over the years, he has expanded his collection to include an estimated 4,500 or 5,000 comic books. He pur- chases about twice a month from a specific mail order firm at the average cost of $20. An interesting item in Rich’s collec- tion a 3-D comic book which requires the reader to wear a pair of glasses. The oldest book from his collection in the Katz of Jammer from 1942 and the most expensive, Ex-Man 94, val- ued between $50 to $75. With an enormous choice to select his favor- ite from, Rich picks the Dracula series as “the fantasy framework that tells stories about real people with intense human drama.’’ It may be hard to believe but Rich finds comic books educational. He holds comics directly responsible for his excellent verbal SAT score. In ad- dition to providing exposure to a wide variety of terms, the comic books have also familiarized Rich with many scientific and abstract concepts. Rich sees no reason for stopping his hobby when he enters college. In fact, he justified his reading comics as “an escape from the mundane world we’re too often stuck in.” COMIC RELIEF DONNA BELL: 8 Guilfoyle Terr., Sayre. COE 4. LARRY BELOTTI: 23 Scheid Dr. Parlin.

Castello Ralph Chance Motocross maybe perilous, but Scott Orgonas manages to override his fears by making this successful jump. A Dangerous Sport What is motocross? It is a sport that requires an individual to ride a motor- cycle over different ter- rains, with jumps, hills, and hairpin turns. Who would want to do some- thing like that? Well, sen- ior Scott Orgonas com- petes in motocross every Sunday at tracks all over New York and New Jer- sey. Scott started riding mo- torcycles at the age of twelve when a friend taught him the basic tech- niques. By the time he was thirteen, Scott has succeeded in convincing his parents to let him race. Although Scott broke his leg in ’81 he feels that the “individual- ity and the satisfaction of winning has compensated for all the hours of ag- ony.” There are forty com- petitors in one race, all trying to accumulate the most points at the end of two “motos” or events. Scott's goal for next year is to gain 60 points and advance to the 125 Ex- pert group. He’d like to see more people partici- pate in this sport, which does not bet much public- ity or recognition. Who wouldn't enjoy moto- cross? Scott emphatically admits that motocross is not for people who fear speed. 166 Seniors -----------------------------------------------------------V ALBERT BURDYNSKI: 21 East Kupsch St.. Sayre.

Dell A craze that is sweeping the nation and affecting every SWMHS senior is MTV fever. Most seniors find watching videos relaxing and good rock enter- tainment. As MTV conducted its daily video fights, Quo Vadis administered its own informal September fight for favorite video. Any rock group or star was quali- fied and Def Leppard with its dual “Foolin and “Rock of Ages came out as the landslide winner. The group’s winning perhaps signified that the ma- jority of the senior class likes heavyme- tal. The new arrival, Quiet Riot, with its new video, “Come on Feel the Noize was tied for the second place with ZZ Top’s “Sharp Dressed Man.’’ Although rock groups dominated the top spots, some individuals did ex- tremely well in the poll. For example, Michael Jackson's “Beat It’’ was ex- tremely popular, probably due to the excellent dancing routines. Another fa- vorite was “Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler.

I agreed and we went to my neighbor’s house, where the first owner had hung herself from the stairway to the second floor. We started the seance and went through the regular procedure to contact a spirit. They decided to contact John Belushi. When we thought we were successful I asked him to give us a sign by making some sort of sound. At that moment dogs outside howled-not barked, howled- and a gate in the corner of the room fell over. My friends all screamed and ran ... I just calmly walked down the stairs after them. Richard Jastrzebski got interested in metaphysical activities when he was in eighth grade. His father bought him Tarot cards, and books in Tarot reading. Although his spe- cialty is reading Tarot cards, Richard has learned the arts of psychome- try, palmistry, the use of herbs, nu- merblogy, seances, and using a cry- stal ball. He also practices a wish- giving ritual called candle-burning, in which incense, chanting and colored candles are used to express a wish and ask for help in fulfilling that wish. — Personally Richard employs medi- tation and self-hypnosis “to find peace of mind after a tense day. He has disciplined himself to meditate daily for at least an hour. Famous around SWMHS, Richard has revealed pasts, presents, and fu- tures of many believers. At times he says that his readings were right. In one case, Richard read from his cards that Bill Cleverley, a fellow senior, had made a choice between two different lifestyles and two dif- ferent sets of friends. When a sur- prised Bill revealed he has made similar decisions recently, Richard also foretold that Bill would find he had made the right decision. For now, Richard seems content to be just another everyday, ordi- nary, slightly mystical teenager. But in the future, who knows?

So, what I did was I pulled everyone else’s beard and said ‘Admit it—you can’t grow beards either! Well, niether can I!’ and I pulled my beard too. It was great! We really got a big laugh out of it. This was a scene from Thur- ber Carnival in Paul Travisano’s ju- nior year when he played General Lee. Paul’s acting career didn’t start or stop at this particular play though. His career took off when he took theater class during his sophomore year when he didn’t know what else to take. Besides being in many of the school plays such as The Good Doctor, Bye Bye Birdie, Thurber Carnival, and Our Town, Paul has been developing his talents over some of his summer breaks. During sophomore summer vacation, which Paul designated as the high point of his dramatic experiences thus far, he starred as Tony in West Side Story in Fords and performed in Brigadoon and another West Side Story production sponsored by Plays in the Park in Edison. Last summer, Paul played Joseph in the written play Joseph and the Amaz- ing Technicolor Dreamcoat by the South River Stage Crafters. With all this, Paul still finds time to take voice lessons from the Middlesex County Arts High School, an adjunct school for stu- dents gifted in the arts. He was also selected for New Jersey's All State Chorus for two consectutive years. The plays I was in prepared me for what will be expected of me in the theater and it really gave me good experience in both acting and sing- ing, he commented. A PLAY PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT As George Gibb in Our Town, Paul Travisano shows concern over Emily Webb's feelings.

Joe explained the emblem as “the number stands for the day my father, my broth- er, and myself were born although in different months, and the letter J stands for the first letter of each of our names which are Jim, Jim, and Joe.” Hearing Up The Track Dirt tracks are a familiar scene for senior Joe Hauser who got interested in racing cars when he was 14. At this very early age, he started building cars from the ground with his father’s assis- tance, who coincidentally was a former car racer. Most of Joe’s car parts came from junkyards and Julian’s Body Fender. Joe currently owns two Ca- maros with 399 and 316 cubic inch Chevy engines. Joe Hauser, at 17, belongs to a rac- ing club called the “Dirt Track Stock Car” where he is currently the youn- gest member. The group races April through September of each year. Joe relates that in these races the cars re- semble late model stock cars, very much like those driven in the Daytona 400. One event, called a heat race, is a ten lap run on a half mile dirt track. Fifteen cars usually try out for a heat race, but only ten quality. Following the heat races is the feature or main events in which the racers drive a 15 lap race on a one mile track. Speed in this feature event averages about 104 mph and tops around 160 mph. Joe Hauser won 3rd place in a 1983 feature event which took place at East Windsor Speedway. He has also competed at Flemington Raceway in Flemington and Nazareth National in Pennsylvania. At the end of the season, Joe and his brother Jim do a hundred lap race where they alternate drivers at pit stops. Joe spends the off season work- ing in this father’s garage, and looking forward to another season “on the Seniors 175 Ellen Hoyberg Bob Hummel Wendy Ann Hunt Calvin Hunter Michele Incontrera Michael Jaffe George Janson Lisa Jaronsky Lori Jarusiewicz Diedra Jarvis Maureen Jasovsky Richard M.

Keller Richard Kemple Kevin Kennedy Lisa Kennedy r “I enjoy running,” declared Gail Kupcha. A serious competitor from the start, Gail has been running since seventh grade, when she joined the spring track and cross country teams. To keep in medal-winning shape, Gail runs six miles every day, and lifts weights to increase her strength and endurance. Her dedication has paid off. Besides numberous other awards, in eleventh grade Gail won fifth place in the state sectionals from spring track, and re- peated the feat the following year in cross country. Graduation won’t keep Gail “off the v track” either. She plans to attend ei- ther Northeastern, Farleigh Dickin- son, or the University of Delaware. Wherever she ends up, though, Gail has definite plans to join the universi- ty track team. Although Gail works hard to achieve the goals she sets for herself, some- times she loses. “I love winning, eve- rybody does, but to my dismay I also lose. On the other hand, losing makes me work harder.” As an athlete, she knows how to learn from defeat. A true winner, Gail barely finishes one race before she starts preparing for the next. f S ELLEN HOYBERG: 24 Louis St.. Parlin. Spanish Club 2 BOB HUMMEL: 84 Pin- eTree Dr..

Almost all the seniors questioned on the topic showed an interest in taking the course or owning a personal computer. Those fortunate enough to get into the course, (and things had sure improved in that area since last year), began by learning BASIC, Beginners All-Pur- pose Symbolic Instruction Code, the first computer lan- guage designed to be easily mastered by anyone. Most seniors found BASIC instruction both interesting and fun. Aside from mastering simple computer concepts, stu- dents gained the skills needed to manipulate the school’s TRS-80 boxes and the know-how to write programs, the most popular being game programs. Is there life after BASIC? The seniors questioned “ran (past of RUN) with the idea’’ and cited PASCAL, MACHINE LANGUAGE. ASSEMBLER, and COBOL as familiar sys- tems of communication, and named LOGO as the new language of choice. Why? Well, no difficult system of encoding and decoding was required of this very “plain English. Great minds in the computer field have long been ask- ing whether “thinking machines develop emotional re- sponses. Well, SWMHS seniors weren’t questioned on ex- actly that subject, but many did indicate that they had gotten “quite attached to their personal software. Why? These Apple, Commodore, and Adam models had be- come helpmates for school assignments, of course. A printer had eliminated the grueling job of typing and a disk called WORD STAR proved superhuman at proof- V_______________________________________________________ reading that infamous assignment, THE TERM PAPER. It seemed that the more disks one had, the more possi- bilities for help one had. This led to the concept of “com- puter buddy” meaning someone who would loan or trade a piece of software for a particular task. Jeff Hollender summed up his own experience with, “It makes my life a lot easier. Most of my schoolwork doesn’t take that much of my time anymore. ... From a SWMHS perspective, it seems BASIC that the computer is an established part of today's PROGRAM. As he types on his keyboard, Jeff Hollender shows that his computer is truly the “Apple II of his eye. 182 Seniors DAVID MALIK: 18 Frazee Ave.. So. Amboy Winter Track 2, 3; Spring Track 2.

After more than a decade of hard work (close to 2,000 school days,) we settled down for our last, most important year in high school. Start- ing at the end of our junior year, many of us have been plagued with the problem of choosing a college to attend. As a result, most of us had to take the notorious SAT’s. We were told we really couldn’t study for these tests but yet many of us sweated over “How to take the SAT’s” books for weeks. All of this work just to be maybe admitted by the college of our choice! Is it worth it? As if that isn’t enough, way back in ninth grade we were told we should take college prep courses if we planned to go to college. Conse- quently, in our senior year we strug- gled to pass courses like Mrs. Alban- y's Physics and Dr. Evanovich’s Cal- culus. After heaps of college brochures and guidance appointments, and even some financial advice, we were able to eliminate some colleges. The first and second semester of our senior year we spent filling out appli- cations for colleges and scholar- ships. Were we surprised to find out there was a cost in an application $15.00, $20.00 . . . ! Then we waited . . for weeks, maybe months before we are told the college’s decision. Meanwhile, most of us recognized the severity of next year’s financial crunch and went to work, literally, to save a little money—McDonalds, Baskin Robbins. Roy Rogers, etc. Right before the holidays, or right after, or even as late as February, the answers came in. Ready, set we're ready to go . . . well, maybe it was worth it. . . .

Ploskonka Michelle Podlesny Joann Poll William Polochak Lynn Michelle Powell Michael Pozai Michele Renne Pozai The Trick Of Being A Magician Senior Bob Hummel has turned the phrase “the hand is quicker than the eye” into quite a lucrative hobby. It all began when Bob, at age 12, bought a simple trick called the linking rings. By constantly fiddling around with it, Bob learned how to perfect it. A friend of the family then hired Bob to perform at a birthday party. This encouraged Bob to both study and practice and in no time at all he appeared at several school banquets, birthday parties for children, holi- day parties, and many celebrations held at McDonalds (Rt. 18), Burger King, and Carvel's. At the present time, Bob has been doing benefit shows for numerous libraries. Bob comments, “I love the thrill of being in front of an audience.’’ So as not to make a mistake during one of his shows, Bob practices a minimum of an hour a day and whenever he can find time to fit it in his schedule. He is also constantly renewing ideas for his skits to be worked into his shows for when “I’m performing professionally.’’ In order to polish up his act, Bob joined a club called IBM, International Brotherhood of Magicians, where avid magi- cians trade simple tricks in order to help their fellow-magi- cians. Eventually, Bob plans to work up his act from being a youth’s act to a professional adult show. He plans to do his shows in various skits similar to his favorite magician David Copperfield. Does Bob Hummel know every trick in the book? His demonstration of magic illusions proved his talent was “no trick. y t The Answer To A Plaguing Question Hey you! Do you find yourself sleeping in class, dreaming of graduation, or getting the incredible urge to go to the beach? If you answered yes to at least one of these activi- ties you've got the SWMHS form of Senioritis. As it is not found in any medical books, Quo Vadis looked toward the class of '84 for the definition of Senioritis. There are almost as many interpretations of Senioritis as there are seniors. A nervous disorder caused by overexpo- sure to rude sophomores and Hamlet was one senior’s defi- nition of Senioritis. Other answers were: something you get when you’re a senior; a disease which destroys your ability to exist in society; a mental block you get after the massive attack from mid-terms; 5 periods and having first choice of all the girls (a stud’s interpretation); a new social disease which affects 17 and 18 year olds; and most importantly having the best year of school. If you think the definition of Senioritis is strange, how us seniors caught it is even more intriguing. The most popular method of transmission was becoming a senior. It’s been said that the moment you step into SWMHS in September you’re a goner. Some seniors caught senioritis last June when they found out they passed 11th grade. Late bloomers caught it after mid-terms were taken and passed! Now that you've got Senioritis, what do you do? Do you do more homework? Not according to the Class of ’84 you don’t. When the Senioritis epidemic hits, such effects like sleep- ing in class, leaving your homework in your locker, constant- ly dreaming of graduation, and just hanging out result. One severe effect was that of turning into a couch-potato! One senior avoided eating meat and collard greens for a full month. What if you don’t like having Senioritis? Is there a cure? According to some seniors there isn’t a cure for Senioritis. But there are always some who hope to cure Senioritis. Their suggestions were—graduation, much sunshine, rock n’ roll, the beach, time, and going to college. One philo- sophical senior foresaw a cure in the badlands of Mexico. Whether there is ever a cure for Senioritis, enjoy it while you have it because you’re only a high school senior once. JULIAN PUDICK: 18 Schmitt St.. Sayre. Track 2.

The book was entitled 1984. During their last high school year, the Class of '84 brought with it some unforgettable trademarks. Female '84 graduates will sure remember the leg warmers and animal slippers, as well as abbreviated Maniac and Flashdance shirts. Loungewear included donned spiked leather belts, matching brace- lets and more earrings. Some truly young at heart seniors caught Cabbage Patch fever. Also, Apple computer systems moved into many Sayreville homes. Their wonders, however, were no com- petition for the sequel of Star Wars- Return of the Jedi, exciting Police Con- certs, the David Bowie videos, or Mi- chael Jackon’s “Thriller.” But fads and entertainment weren’t all that was happening for the school year of '83-’84. It brought the tragic incident of the airline tragedy of flight KAL 007 and the bizarre event over George Brett’s pine tar bat. The year also gave way for the controversy con- cerning the Marines’ stay in Lebanon and the aggressive bombing of their barracks in October. It was also the year that “The Day After” aired on television in an attempt to enlighten the public of the possible catastrophic potential of a nuclear war. On a lighter note, 1984 also brought the winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yu- goslavia, and the start of a Presidential campaign. (But to the Class of '84, will anything compare to graduation?) The month of December 1983 was special for Laura Bogan and Jim Gelder as they announced their newly adopted Cabbage Patch Doll. Minaldevi Shah Christine Sharrock Sue Shortino Jeff Shouldis Greg S.

As a mem- ber of the Sayreville Police Reserves, Richard “has full police powers allowed by law only in the actual performance of duty.” In 1982, he had attended the Police Academy Reserve from Septem- ber to December. At that time, he had learned about patrol functions, traffic control, arrest and seizure, criminal laws, and first aid. With these new skills and knowledge, Richard began to di- rect traffic on Sundays at St. Stevens and O.L.V. and control the crowds at high school wrestling matches. Accom- panied by a partner, Richard some- times writes tickets and does routine patrols. By 8th grade, Rich began to pursue his interest in police work seriously by becoming a marine cadet. In this pro- gram, sponsored by the U.S. Army, Richard learned about survival training, handling weapons, and safety. More importantly, he learned to respect the authority and importance of responsi- bility. By age 15, Richard had phoned the Sayreville police to express his interest in learning about law enforcement. The policeman informed Richard of a pro- gram that was no longer in existence because of lack of interest. Fortunate- ly, he got a couple of his friends togeth- er and reinstated the Sayreville Police Explorers. The group met about twice a month and offered the chance to learn the functions of a police department. After high school. Richard plans to join the U.S. Army to become an M.P.; an alternate goal is becoming a state trooper. Richard is following his own advice regarding pursuing his goals: “get as experienced as possible and don’t let any obstacles get in your way.” MINALDEVI SHAH: 42 Haven Terr., Parlin.

LOVE CONQUERS ALL Every high school student seems to have one thing in common with every other high school student, and that is having someone special. It may not be as highly publicized as the romance between Bogart and Bacall or as ruggedly exciting as Tar- zan and Jane, but it’s very special to both parties. Whether the attraction was trig- gered by a physical attribute, a per- sonality trait, or a common interest, the magnetic occurrence always seems (pardon the cliche) magical. Who could forget those senior cou- ples who insist on walking hand-in- hand even in the busy corridors be- tween periods, occasionally even stopping for a more intimate em- brace? In reality people spend a great deal of time together away from school? Yes, but this year, most couples didn’t have it so easy. In- stead they felt the notorious pinch of inflation. Movies alone ranged from $2.00 to $4.50 per person and that didn’t even include gas and food costs. Most seniors, however, coped with inflation by taking on employ- ment: this created a new problem- the limitation of time to spend to- gether. Denise Meyertons and Tom Nowicki synchronized their sched- ules to maximize their time togeth- er. Denise also reported that she and Tom enjoyed many quiet even- ing watching MTV, an essential get together. Many seniors agreed that visiting inexpensive places as parks or malls and watching cable TV or old movies were pleasurable ways of spending time together. 194 Seniors Peter Tevis Bunnie Lynn Thomas Elizabeth Thompson Kelly Thompson John Tillem Keith Tomaszewski Lori Tomlinson Paul Travisano Nick Tsaptsinos Victoria A.

Wrong, at least for several mem- bers of the TAG program. These seniors worked hard this year on projects, fo- cusing on writing, music, people coordi- nation, and teaching in a variety of ways. The writing projects included the pro- duction of TAG Tales, a newsletter of interest to all TAG members. Editor-in- Chief Laura Morgan organized her staff of Seniors Wendy Hunt, Laura Krajewski, and Beth Kwiatkowski and Junior Judy Milligan. The group planned, wrote, and processed the composites of booklists with recommendations, special interest articles, spotlights, and announcements, and learned a great deal doing it. Independently, Beth Kwiatkowski wrote a screen-play titled “The Sword of Eden starring the famed Indiana Jones. Beth has hopes of seeing Harrison Ford recover the sword meant to guard the Garden of Eden. Another kind of composition “com- posed Kurt Boehm's project. The song, “Donation, and its musical arrange- ment were his original projects aimed for performance by the school’s Jazz band. Teaching-learning projects have al- ways been popular in the TAG program.

Ms. Sutherland recognizes the similar- ity among her own special TAG mem- bers, diversified as their projects may sound. “They are each alike in the way that they are pursuing their own concep- tion of an individual educational exper- ience,” she summarized. ___________________________________________) V.

V____________________________________________ 198 Seniors A Circle i i i. Of Scholars Contrary to the common belief that any top ten is merely a collection of bookworms, 1984’s forerunners were indeed a group of accomplished, “well rounded students, ready to express their views. Valedictorian Matt Bauer overviewed the school. “When I graduate, it is not the building itself that I will miss, but the school. A school is not merely a building, but a place with people and ideas. Computer minded Jeff Hoi- lender looked to the future when asked to comment, “Now is when it all begins to pay off. Not even a native English speaker, Debbie Sun’s accomplish- ments included being ranked third in her class. She commented, “Graduat- ing in the top ten is a great way to commemorate my tenth year in the United States. Revealing his sportsmanlike attitude Paul Platkin cited a passage from a Po- lice recording, “Sometimes it’s not so easy to be the teacher’s pet. In a jok- ing manner, fifth ranked Rich Butchko responded, “I only wish that my rank was lower than my age! Also light heartedly, sixth ranked Joe Volosin commented, “I found it a great honor to be the tallest member of the top ten. Always busy, Chris Slavin was pleasantly surprised by her rank of sev- en. “What can I say? I’m in seventh heaven! A classically minded Nora Farrell cited Oscar Wilde, “We may all be in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. Contented with her ninth position, Laura Morgan mused, “Not everyone can be a ten, I guess. As a fitting closing, tenth ranked Lin- da Tynan summed up everyone’s feel- ings, “I’d like to thank all the little peo- ple who made this possible. A sense of accomplishment put a smile on the face of Valedictorian Matt Bauer. At the head of the Senior Class, these academicians rounded out this year's top ten. FRONT: Debbie Sun. Paul Platkin. MIDDLE: Chris Slavin, Rich Butchko, Joe Volosin. BACK: Linda Tynan. Laura Morgan. Nora Farrell. Only second to one, Salutatorian Jeff Hollender more than proved himself in his years at SWMHS. « Seniors 199 One Final Look Around Well there were Green Days and Rap Days and everyday was Moo Day. Ho dressed up and we did yoga and mopped the floor and made people out of quarter-pounder containers . . . the UFO top wouldn't light and John’s gas mask mysteriously disappeared, but somehow the bunny ears made up for it all. Nivals and Crackers even tried to set a new trend wearing their ice cream suits to meetings. Then let’s see, there were always ex- tra photos and lost captions and never enough copy when it was needed. (“Deadline, what deadline?’’) Once again, Ms. B. has proved she can made order out of chaos, molehills out of mountains, and sense out of stu- dents-at least when that nasty desk of hers refrains from eating all her pa- pers. Since a little B is on the way and Mom B won’t be back next year, we QV Seniors hope that the underclass staff- ers find someone to fit the traditional advisor’s straightjacket. (Ms. B., why are you clinging to that tissue?) RIGHT: After missing many important yearbook meet- ings, Margaret Gochangco masks her face in shame.

A friend gives a helping hand When so much is in demand. A friend is someone you can trust Especially when it's a must. A friend is always there Whenever you are in despair. A friend is someone who understands And tries to make amends. But when you feel low They are there to console. A friend doesn't make you cry By telling you a lie. A friend shows a precious love Just like that of a dove. A friend to me As anyone could plainly see Is a special someone With a little bit of everything rolled into one. Stephanie Wasik Yearbooks are very useful if they may say so themselves. For Seniors, the yearbook provides a chance to take one last look around SWMHS and see how they’ve come full-circle, from “kids” in tenth grade to being “adults” in twelfth, now ready to take their places as the newest members of the real world. For the underclass, it’s a way to remember all the clowning around they did, and a look back be- fore rounding the next corner. Every WELL-ROUNDED yearbook starts out as a bunch of ideas, which have to be shaped and polished until they’re absolutely brilliant, or at least pretty good. Many people helped us along the way, and we’d like to thank them here; Thanks .... to Phil Klein, our Busi- ness Rep from Jostens, for deciding we were the opposite of crazy and sticking by us ... to Shirley from Lorstan- Thomas Studios for rushing film when we needed it most ... to Ms. Suther- land for her tips about what was going on around school ... to Mrs. Beyer for the loan of A81 ... to all the people who on short notice let us take their picture or gave us an interview ... to Mr. Dill and the rest of the administra- tion for its continued understanding ... to the faculty and students for support- ing our fundraisers . . . and finally, to Mom and Dad, for everything. It was a do or die” dilemma when Quo Vadis adviser Mrs. Bodnar was forced to wear John’s “Mushmouse’’ hat to keep up staff morale. A Round Of Applause I Colophon 201 Wee gates Frownline?
