Mr. Leonard A. Yarrows has always answered our call with friendly advice and guidance. It is there- fore with deep appreciation that we, the Class of 1964, dedicate our yearbook to him. IN MEMORIAM Suzanne M. Novak May 10, 1946-March 17, 1961 Your gentle face and patient smile With sadness we recall You had a kindly word for each And died beloved by all. The voice is mute and stilled the heart That loved us well and true, Ah, bitter was the trial to part From one so good as you. You are not forgotten loved one Nor will you ever be As long as life and memory last We will remember thee. We miss you now, our hearts are sore. As time goes by we miss you more, Your loving smile, your gentle face No one can fill your vacant place. JOHN F.

In this way it can preserve the best of its traditions while building for the future by intelligent adap- tation without any compromise to expediency. Education was once a series of streams. Now it has become one big river. You have already started your voyage on this river, and while you all have different goals, you are heading in the same direction. The river is becoming broader and traffic is becoming heavier. The journey is stimulating and the river endless. Keeping the above thoughts in our minds and close to our hearts, our wishes for success and happiness go out to the Class of 1964. May your voyage of life be exciting and successful. We can only hope the foundations that you have gained during your stay with us have prepared you for the many storms you will encounter during this voyage . It is with confidence and hope that we successfully launched your ship of life. Sincerely yours, a 15 M WB : Y i i - ■ DOROTHY BACESKI Dottie Northampton; Commercial; Class Secretary 1; Class Treasurer 2,3,4; Glee Club 1,2,4; Thespians 3,4; Yearbook 3,4; Pro Merito 1,2,3,4; Washington Trip 4.

As we find ourselves looking forward to the conclu- sion of our high school days, we sadly recognize that the time has come when we must bid farewell to our classmates and friends. The thoughts of future chal- lenges excite all of us, but we are equally sad as we recall all of the memorable experiences that we have shared together at Smith Academy. Our four years have passed almost too swiftly, but while we shall be beginning a new and different life, we can assure our- selves that we have been well prepared. Our minds have grown broader with knowledge and understanding through the help and guidance of our teachers, and our plans for the future have been made upon this foundation. Although it is with a heavy heart that we leave Smith Academy, we know that our memories of the years we have spent here will always remain with us. It was in September of 1960 that our class of thirty - eight boys and girls first entered Smith Academy, and we were anxious to discover what awaited us in high school. We had a feeling of distinction when we first entered because we knew that we would be the last class to graduate from the eighth grade, and the last class to enter Smith Academy as Freshmen. With Mrs. Mary Holdsworth as our faculty advisor, we held our first class meeting and elected the following students as our class officers: President, John Beattie; Vice- President, Robert Santoni; Secretary, Dorothy Bace- ski; and Treasurer, James Mullins. We next faced the worst ordeal of our freshman year, initiation, which came at the end of September. After this ex- perience we became more self-assured, and we spon- sored our first fund-raising function; a book sale that was held in the school auditorium. The book sale was a great success. On March 17, 1961, we were all shocked at the tragic death of our classmate, Suzanne Novak, who was struck down and killed while crossing the road to her house. We all felt the great loss in our class. In April, we held our first social function, a dance entitled ' April Showers. The gym was trans- formed into a romantic evening scene which included a small pond with water lilies and park bench all set under a large yellow moon. Music for the event was provided by Bud Stone. More quickly than we could have imagined, we found ourselves adjourning for summer vacati on, but eager to return in the fall for our second year. The next year, returning as confident sophomores, we quickly held a class meeting with our new advisor, Mr. Leonard Yarrows, and we chose the following stu- dents to guide us through our second year: President, John Beattie; Vice-President, Linda Kempisty; Secre- tary, Jane Pelc; Treasurer, Dorothy Baceski and Stu- dent Council Representatives, Mary Ann Romance and Robert Santoni. Edward Mitchell did not return in September with the class, and early in the year Wesley Prusnal transferred. We did, however, wel- come two new class members: Katie Maricle, a graduate of Clarke School for the Deaf, and Patricia Edwards, a transfer from Northampton High School. On October 27, we sponsored a Halloween record hop aptly entitled Bewitched. The gym was deco- rated in autumn colors. The highlight of our Sopho- more year was the arrival of our class rings, which we had ordered from the Josten Company in early November. Some of the class received the new college style rings, while the other members ordered the standard type. June approached swiftly, and we again departed to await the fall and begin- ning of our first year as upperclassmen. In September, we returned minus a classmate, Katie Maricle, who left to attend Northampton High School. During the course of the year, John Snyuer, a transfer student from Iran, joined our class but later left to attend Monson Academy. We promptly held a class meeting and selected as class officers: President, Are . . . Robert Santoni; Vice-President, Linda Kempisty; Secretary, Jane Pelc; Treasurer, Dorothy Baceski; and Student Council Representatives, John Beattie and Carol Maciorowski. On October 27, we held a successful record hop called Let ' s Dance, with Phil Dee providing the music. In the spring, we pre- sented our long-dreaded declamations before the entire student body and faculty. For the second con- secutive year, the juniors were required to write their own speeches. Of the ten chosen to speak at the Town Hall, Mary Ann Romance and John Beattie emerged as first place winners. After weeks of plan- ning, we finally held our junior prom on May 25 at the Whale Inn. Music for Some Enchanted Evening was provided by Paul Collins and his orchestra. It was voted by the class that any girl attending the prom made sure everyone at the Town Hall had an enjoy- able evening. Our senior year was a blur of activities starting on November 1 5 with the hilarious success of the Skeleton Walks. Throughout the year we held various fund-raising projects such as the Christ- mas tree sale and the cai wash which greatly helped increase our treasury. Mary Ann Romance was elected our Good Government Representative by the student body, and she made her trip to Boston on April 10. Early in the fall senior pictures were taken at Arlene ' s Studio. During March graduation announcements were ordered from the Josten Company. Linda Kemp- isty was the DAR girl, chosen for good citizenship. April 20 marked the day we had been waiting for since the beginning of the year -- the Washington Trip. Three days were spent touring the highlights could reign as the queen. Chosen to reign was Marcia of Washington and on Thursday the group left for Goclowski, a sophomore, and as her attendants: New York. A day was spent viewing the 1964 Cessie Cybulski, Linda Kempisty, Patricia Cahill, and World ' s Fair and on April 25 the very tired seniors Barbara Yarrows. All who attended the gala event enjoyed a memorable evening. In late May, the fac- ulty announced that Carol Maciorowski and Robert Santoni were to be delegates to Girls ' State and Boys ' State. As our Junior Year came to an end, we assured ourselves that we would return to our final year with much ambition and enthusiasm. At last fall came and along with it our last and returned home, feeling that all their four years of hard work and fund raising had been worthwhile. Commencement activities began with the class banquet. Class Day was held on June 16. June 17 was graduation day and early that morning the whole class went to a Mass held in the intention of their late classmate, Suzanne Novak. The graduation exercises were held in the evening at the Town Hall with di- most memorable year at Smith Academy. We selected ploma presentations made by Mr. William H. Dickin- as our leaders for the final year: President, Mary Ann Romance; Vice-President, Jane Pelc; Secretary; Cessie Cybulski; Treasurer, Dorothy Baceski, and Student Council Representatives, Linda Kempisty, John Beattie, and Robert Santoni. During the year our class welcomed two new members, Maureen Stine- ford, a transfer from Frontier Regional, and Walter Sheremeta, a transfer from Springfield Tech. The pleasures of initiating the sophomores was placed in the hands of the seniors, and in early November we son of the Board of Trustees. Now as our senior year draws to a close and brings us face to face with the adult stage of our lives, we prepare to meet the future and accept whatever it has to offer. Our four years at Smith Academy have given us the knowledge and confidence that we shall need to take our places in the adult world. It is with excite- ment and regret that we bid farewell to our happy high school days. 29 Made of . . . t I ? f f t J t H b H a F M HFTH sHt BL : ■ HUM ' - ' ' ?bM IDl f i f 1 111 a, f vj HeP -« ■ I M MJKMl Ml 9ff0 Then and Now.

SOPHOMORE HI-LITES On September 4, thirty-five sophomores entered Smith Academy. Shortly there- after, Cherron Lashway left our class. The first class meeting was held with Mrs. Florence Muller as our appointed class advisor. The following officers were elected: Elizabeth Petcen, president; David Sikorski, vice-president; Martha Belden, treasurer; Lynne Babbee, secre- tary; Alan Prucnal and Patricia Kempisty, student council representatives. The standard college style rings were ordered by the class in October and were received in April. The sophomores held their annual dance on November 29 with Jim Labbee as disc jockey. L to R: M.

This was Mr. Richard Nadolny, who, incidently, is quite a pro himself. By no means could it be called a poor season, because every game was a battle right down to the last gun. The captains of the team were Thomas Burnikas and Richard Slysz. The team ended the season with a 6-4-4 record, finishing in the Hampshire League. The Falcon who split the uprights, was Ray Rudy who got 14 goals. Next were Richie Slysz and Jimmy Mullins with 4 goals each. Ray Rudy and Thomas Burnikas made the Hampshire League AU-Star Team for added honors. ROW 1; T. Kostek; D. Flouton; R. Symanski; R. Slysz; J. Mullins; W. Skorupski; T. Burnikas; R. Rudy; E.

BA SEBA LL TEA M IMPR VES This year the Falcons received a very capable crop of freshmen; Mark Vachula, Danny Desmond, Jay Wilkes, Bobby Pelis, and a very good shortstop, Tony Barschenski, out for his first year of baseball. All five were starters. Dave Flouton, who did a good pitching job last year, was lost to the team for the entire season due to a hip operation. This, however, was compensated for by the pitching of sophomore Dave Sikorski and another promising freshman, Larry Prucnal plus the usually fine perfor- mance turned in by the three-year veteran Bob Burke. The only word that can be used to compare last year ' s team with this year ' s team is improvement. The future looks good for coach Andrew ' s Falcons. r r 41 W J A ' i 4 41 «C ROW 1: R.

VARSITY TIES FOR SECOND The Smith Academy basketball Falcons completed the 1963-1964 season with an admirable 13-5 overall record. Under the direction of Maxwell Moczulewski the team tied for second place in the Hampshire League and was runner-up in the Small Schools ' Tournament, the Main Division. The Falcons lost to Amherst Regional High School in the final game of the tournament by a score of 44-42. The starting line-up consisted of Bob Burke, Jim Mullins, Carol Ostrowski, Richard Slysz, and Bob Symanski, who substitued for John Beattie who was forced to leave the team because of an ankle injury sustained early in the season. This season can always be remembered as a very fine and successful year for the Falcons. P i IB 5 P vJh . ' . ■ i •■, JM l2 L ■ ML 4 WwE Jp yt i I H 43 L. to R: ROW 1: L. Prucnal; R. Sliwoski; W.

CHEERLEADERS TAKE FIRST The Smith Academy Cheerleaders, together with their advisor, Mrs. Muller, and loyal basket- ball fans, led the team to a top position in the Hampshire League this year. The entire squad con- sisted of: Sandra Baceski, Donna Donnis, Cessie Cybulski, Helen Sikorski, Margaret Yanginski, and Suzanne Yarrows, Varsity; and Nancy Michaloski, Kyra Petrick, and Patricia Cahill, Junior Varsity.

On behalf of the squad, the captain, Cessie Cybulski, extends thanks to all those who made this season a season to be remem- bered. k21 A 1 ■ p W. .Ja k J w IB WORK, SWEAT, FANS . . . issBHi A ctivities L to R 1st ROW: Mr. Naumowicz, Kempisty, Pelc, Cybulski, Petrick, Michalowski, Fitzgerald, Yarrows, Godek, Adam- ski, Olszewski, Jaworski, Sikorski; 2nd ROW: Ma- ciorowski, Fitzgerald, Edwards, Baceski, Donnis, Cahill, Sikorski, Labbee, Slowikowski, Kempisty, Kochan; 3rd ROW: Shaw, Michalowski, Cernak, Baceski, Yanginski, Zgrodnik, Petcen, Cant- well, Nartowicz, Ro- mance, Jackowski, Maslanka; 4th ROW: Belden, Belden, Baye, Zembiski, Stempel, Ryan, Goller, Maslanka, Backiel, Smith, Go- clowski, Geryk; 5th ROW: Kabat, Waskiewicz, Sperry, Michajluk, Bur- nickas, Glenowicz, Ostrow- ski, McKay, Korza, Malinowski, Flouton, Ce- chvala, Brennan. PLATS ARE BIG SUCCESS This year the Thespian Society success- fully put on two productions. Officers for the season were Linda Kempisty, president; Michael Cechvala, stage manager; and Jane Pelc, secretary-treasurer. In November, the annual senior play, a comedy-mystery, The Skelton Walks, was presented under the direction of Mr. John Naumowicz of the English department. Later on in the season it was decided that an experiment would be tried within the Society. The Thespians, who have presented mainly mysteries and comedies, this year tried their hand at drama. In May a trilogy of one-act plays, Beware the Bear, The Balcony Scene, and Jacob Comes Home, in which two dramas were presented, was produced and was indeed a big success with the school and townspeople. Officers: J. Pelc, L. Kempisty, J. Naumowicz, M. Checvala. 50 H r ' ' t JACOB COMES HOME BEWARE THE BEAR BALCONY SCENE 51 THE SKELETON WALKS 4 1. ' ' ' tlX kWmf - y Random order: A. Prucnal; N.

ECHO CONTINUES TO IMPROVE The yearbook staff of Smith Academy proudly presents the 1964 Echo, a pictorial review en- compassing the wide activities and events of this school year. We hope that this book will give every- one an idea of the life within our school and pro- mote a better relationship between the community and the school. This yearbook, with its innovations such as the color tip-on, was advised and aided by Mrs. Mary Spakowski. Long hours were spent in getting ideas and laying out this book. We the staff sincerely thank anyone who has contributed in any way to- ward making this book possible. We hope it meets the expectations of its readers and that it may serve all as a treasure chest of pleasant memories. The Editors, L to R: C. Maciorowski, Photography; J. Michajluk, Art; M.

NEW REGULA TIONS FOR YOUTHFUL DRIVERS This year a large group of students took the school ' s driver educa- tion course . It was again under the supervision of Mr. Skarzynski in the classroom and Mr. McGrath on the road. This year the students were faced with many new regulations in addition to the special one o ' clock curfew licence for those under eighteen. Now, in order to begin behind-the -wheel driving, a student had to have a driver ' s per- mit. The driver ' s permit was secured by an examination which con- sisted of twenty-five questions, multiple choice, twenty of which had to be answered correctly. Upon receiving his driving permit, a student could practice his driving, then take his road test without additional testing. If the road test was passed, you then received your licence.
