Suffield High School - Sagitta / Kaleidoscope Yearbook (Suffield, CT)

Text from Pages 1 - 122 of the 1965 volume:

THE 1965 SAGITTA Presented by THE SENIOR CLASS SUFFIELD HIGH SCHOOL SUFFIELD, CONNECTICUT Learning comes not entirely from the text; it is gained through the enrichment of personality in a social setting. Thus we strive to meet society’s demands for the develop¬ ment of character. It is the presence of enlightening professors, books and catalytic thoughts that encourage us to delve deeper into the macrocosm of which we are a fragment. 2 DEDICATION In 1939, Suffield High School was built under President Roosevelt’s WPA plan. In 1957, a wing was added to in¬ clude a junior high school. Undoubtedly we have grown ac¬ customed to this school and it has become a part of us. Through the years we have looked on it as being the one constant symbol that we have associated with growing up. In the period of four years many changes occurred. It is difficult for us to leave, knowing that the tradition which we have been brought up with will no longer be carried on as it has been for so many years. However, we realize that the facilities and courses of the new school will provide an en¬ vironment for greater learning. It, in turn, may become the unchanging symbol of growing up for future generations. Many classes have graduated from this high school and we have the honor of being the last. Never again will we walk down the halls of the high school and nevermore will there be a Suffield High School as we knew it. Therefore, we feel it is only fitting that we dedicate our yearbook, the 1965 Sagitta,” to Suffield High School—may it live for¬ ever in our memories. 3 APPRECIATION Four years ago we entered Suffield High School as freshmen. At this time, four faculty members were chosen as our advisors; their purpose being to guide us and to see that our expenditures did not exceed our budget. However, they surpassed these duties by helping us overcome obstacles—some of which have been encountered by every class and others which were unique to ours. We thank Mrs. Corcoran for her assistance in balancing our books and her constant encouragement throughout our magazine drive. We thank Mrs. Ganley for her willingness to lend a helping hand. Through her enthusiasm she aroused in us loyalty and school spirit. We thank Mr. Regalbuti for all time and effort he contributed to the “1965 Sagitta.” Without his constant supervision and guidance our yearbook would not be what it is. We thank Mr. Shields for his unparalleled play directing which enabled us not only to boost our treasury but also to gain an appreciation for one of the fine arts. It is to these advisors that we express our deepest gratitude not only for fulfilling their duties, but more important, for demonstrating to us by their own example the qualities needed to accept the challenge of the world today. 4 ADMINISTRATION V YHp ADMINISTRATION DR.

The rolling force of great speeches, the striking beauty of poetry, and the witty use of words in an essay are joys too great to be missed. English has so many facets and every one of them is so enjoyable that whether it is prose, poetry, or drama that a reader chooses, he will always come away satisfied. ELIZABETH A.

Latin II, III, IV LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The language department has a view on the world. The study of languages reveals to the student new areas of past and contemporary culture and brings about a closer rapport with other peoples, a pressing need in today’s interdependent world. As he progresses in this study, he comes to see what a precious cultural heritage is his own native tongue, and, to understand better the building blocks of his own language. Aside from all utilitarian considerations . . . college admissions requirements, future vocation, foreign travel, etc. ... the acquisition of language skills is an enjoyable and rewarding experience for those who will put forth the effort. Suffield offers a solid background in three languages. One may take four years of French, Latin, or Spanish. In his sophomore year he may add a second language and carry it through for three years. As we develop our program, we hope to prepare our students to face today’s complex world as well-rounded citizens. MARY C.

In studying the results of Napoleon’s campaigns, the causes of the Civil War, and the working of inter¬ national justice, each student appreciates more the ac¬ complishments and failings of the past and under¬ stands better the happenings of the present. History gives the key that will open the doors to the build¬ ing of a more productive and peaceful future and affords the golden opportunity of appreciating the ideals, heritage, and goals by which Americans live.

S.H.S. students plunging into this busy sphere are prepared to meet with its many problems. Through the study of business mathematics and bookkeeping, the student learns the detailed work of accounting and management. Typ¬ ing and shorthand, the basic essentials of secretarial work require concentration and precision. Office Practice perfects the student’s skill as a secretary and acquaints her with the responsibilities to her future employer. Our business depart¬ ment at S.H.S. affords her the opportunity to view the practi¬ cal and systematic method of business at work and to orient herself in advance to the world in which she will soon take her place.

Art ART DEPARTMENT As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life.” Sir Lubbock, Lord Avebury Beauty must not be lost in this world of automa¬ tion. The purpose of art is that of inspiring people not merely to look, but to see into the life of things. Our art department, led by Mr. Christopher Horton, believes that creativity should be a facet of every student. Whether building a book end or painting an original oil and reaching beyond, formal knowl¬ edge gained in art courses are the key objectives. RAYMOND H.

Through a planned program of activities in listening, singing, reading and creative areas in music; and through the establishment and maintenance of choirs, bands and ensembles of outstanding quality, and by offering a sound general music course featuring a variety of music activities at the Junior High level; and by offering electives in music theory and music appreciation at the High School level, we hope we are providing the maximum musical opportunity for all Suffield students.

INDUSTRIAL ARTS In our Industrial Arts classes we endeavor to train the hands ... as well as the mind. Within the walls of the Industrial Arts classrooms . . . boys, or young men ... are learning to make a piece of wood or leather come alive and take form. These men may build our roads . . . construct our bridges, or simply provide the ebony lamp for our den. No matter how large or small the job . . . their task is important for themselves ... as well as others.

Wesleyan College B.A., Librarian Physical motion—co-ordination of the mind and body Before you is an athlete, moving gracefully. His hands, feet, eyes, and brain are all part of a complex organism. Each must do its job smoothly and efficiently for the organism to function properly. TEAMWORK. The ath¬ lete himself uses this idea in his games. Only when he moves smoothly and efficiently does he aid the co-ordina¬ tion of his team. The athlete works hard to gain skill and precision. PERSEVERANCE. From September to May the athlete department of Suffield High School has brought honor and recognition to its students; and it gives character and sportsmanship to all those concerned whether they were members on the field or members in the stands.

Our President was Pam Fleming, our Vice-President was Donald Pratt, our Secretary was Pat Duni, and our Treasurer was Betsy Zera. During Latin initiation we found ourselves walking around with pigtails, ribbons, two different socks, and pillowcases filled with books. What a sight we must have been! To get some money in the treasury, we had a booksale and an Oldies But Goodies record hop. We profited largely by these two projects. Pat Bulat worked very hard in organizing the decorations for the Pep Rally. On May 23 we spent a night In An Oriental Garden, which was the theme of our Junior Prom. The Connecticut Hightones chose Barbara Schiessl as the queen. Her eight attendants were Linda Nasiatka, Evy Tkacz, Barbara Horanzy, Pam Domin, Marie van Gelder, Carol Liss, Julie Taylor, and Betsy Zera. Members of the probationary National Honor Society were Patti Borys, Donald Parsons, Carol Liss, Stanley Wojno, and Marleene Link. To start the basketball season off, the annual Pep Rally was held. That year each class made decorations and competed for school spirit. Pam Fleming was chairman and we all helped her to pro¬ duce some fine looking decorations. We returned the next year as Sophomores. Again officers were elected. Richie Wolak became our new President, Deane Moulton the new Vice-President, Billy Phelps took over the money situation and Pat Duni still was Secretary. In the late fall, the day everyone had been waiting came. We received our class rings! The two class projects we had added more money to our treas¬ ury. We sold candy bars and put on a play entitled The Remark¬ able Incident at Carson’s Corner.” The play was directed by one of our advisors, Mr. Shields. The cast worked hard and put on a fine performance. Basketball season rolled along and everyone was working hard under the supervision of Linda Nasiatka to make the decorations for the Pep Rally. c over the money ' i aiting for finally Pat Duni was chosen captain of the Varsity Cheering Squad. Barbara Schiessl, Barbara Banach, Patti Borys, Julie Taylor, and Evy Tkacz joined her to help cheer our team on to victory. During the summer, Patti Borys had the privilege of attending the University of Bridgeport and taking a 7 week course in Biology. Also Bobby Suzenski went to Assumption Prep where he studied math for 6 weeks. Richard Turner went to the Uni¬ versity of Hartford for 5 weeks to study Spanish. Our Senior year finally arrived! Our officers were Richie Wolak, still holding the Presidency, Tom Slasinski, taking over the office of the Vice-Presidency, Pat Duni still writing letters and takiog notes at our class meetings and Billy Phelps, trying to get everyone to pay his dues. V “ Our y supervise Varsity Cheering The s Our main project was the magazine drive. The captains were our four class officers. Pat Duni ' s team was tops. The four top salesmen were Barbara Horanzy, Pat Duni, Ronnie Szoka, and Billy We were proud to have Pat Duni on the Squad. A Junior Varsity Cheering Squad was formed that year and Patti Borys and Barbara Banach were happy to be on it. Bill Turek was the only Sophomore to make All State Band. , Our Junior year arrived and many exciting things were in store for us. We started off the year by electing class officers. Richie Wolak was President again, Tom Mandirola was Vice-President, and the offices of Secretary and Treasurer were still held by Pat Duni and Billy Phelps respectively. In November, the trip we had been waiting for finally arrived. We boarded buses at school bright and early in the morning and were on our way to New York to visit the United Nations Build¬ ing. After a number of guided tours and dinner at the U.N. Dining Room, we were able to wander through the big city until parting time. Q: Sharon Bruce and Bobby Suzenski joined Bill Turek in repre¬ senting S.H.S. in All State Band. Another play entitled Tevya and His Daughters was per¬ formed by some of our fine actors and actresses. The delegates to Girls’ and Boys’ State were chosen. Karen Jorgensen and Pat Duni were to attend Laurel Girls’ State and Richie Wolak and Richard Turner were to attend Nutmeg Boys’ State. r yearbook was beginning to get well underway under the ision of Karen Jorgensen, the Editor-in-chief. students accepted into the National Honor Society were Kathy Austin, Sharon Bruce, Stanley Wojno, Donald Parsons, Frances Gould, Carolyn Peterson, Carol Liss, Marleene Link, Richard Turner, Mary Ann Trommer, Karen Jorgensen, and Patti Borys. i Evy Tkacz and Julie Taylor were the organizers for our Pep Rally. After four years of hard work we finally became the class with the most school spirit and the best decorations. Pat Duni was the recipient of the DAR good citizenship award. r A v ' 4 N On February 13 we held our Senior Ball, Moments to Remem¬ ber.” We danced with hearts and cupids surrounding us. Eddy Walenta’s Orchestra provided the music and picked Carol Liss as the queen. Barbara Schiessl, Linda Nasiatka, Pam Domin. Kathy Austin, Susan Canfield, and Claudia Babb were her attendants. m 7- I Y This year the play The Importance of Being Earnest was performed. For the Seniors this was the last time they ould display their theatrical talent at S.H.S. June 16 was the date of our graduation. Some of the seniors were glad to leave Suffield while others were sad. Now that we have all graduated, we have a whole new future ahead of us. We will venture into the wide new world to look for jobs while others will further their education. Whatever the future may bring, we will always remember our classmates and our advisors, Mrs. Corcoran, Mrs. Ganley, Mr. Regalbuti, and Mr. Shields. j 7 7 7 V 59 CLASS We, the Class of 1965, being of sound mind and body, hereby bequeath the following: To the Administration we leave the memory that as the last class to graduate from Suffield High School, we have done our best to fulfill the standards set by the Administration and Fac¬ ulty.

ORGANIZATIONS v STUDENT COUNCIL Suffield High proved this year to be truly demo¬ cratic since voting machines were provided on elec¬ tion day and campaign speeches were delivered to the entire student body by prospective officers. Membership in the Student Council is one of the greatest responsibilities and highest honors a student may receive. The Council serves as a direct link between the pupils and faculty. This organization feels that its ideas and recommendations are looked upon with respect by the administration. HIGH SCHOOL RED CROSS We believe in service for others, for our country, our community, and our school, in health of mind and body to fit us for greater service and for better human relations throughout the world. We have joined the American High School Red Cross to help achieve its aims by working together with members everywhere in our own and other lands. Sitting: R. Holdridge secretary; L. Nasiatka, Pres. Standing • S. Wojno, V.P.; M. Wilson, Treas. 84 EDITORIAL STAFF This year the Reader s Reflection is celebrating its 25th anniversary as the official news magazine of Suffield High. During World War II copies were sent to local boys serving their country overseas. For two decades the paper has won a first place rating from the Columbia Scholastic Press Associa¬ tion. The Reader’s Reflection desires to strengthen the ability of students to express themselves in logical form. READER’S REFLECTION STAFF Books are the source of knowledge; the key to a better world. Moreover, they afford entertainment and a great deal of pleasure. ■ ■ MBP L to R: L. Johnston, Lib.; R. Holdridge, Pari.; R. Rossi, Treas.; C. Harriman, Hist.; S. Waterman, V P.; M. Trommer, Pres.; A. Seidler, Sec. This is our third year of intensive dramatic pro¬ duction at Suffield High School, we are proud of our growth. Good theatre is our aim. All the people involved in Suffield High School’s theatre are com¬ mitted to the ideals of sound dramatic performances and to give a performance worth more than the price of the ticket. We constantly strive to please our audience because it is for them t hat we perform. “The Remarkable Incident at Carson’s Corner” FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA CLUB The Future Teachers of America Club originated in 1962. They chose the name, Delmar F. Sisson Chapter in honor of one of Suffield’s past princi¬ pals. In 1963, Mrs. Corcoran became advisor. A student teaching program was established. This year a Regional Conference was held, and interesting speakers delighted the members with their lectures. CLASS PLAYS SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club of Suffield High School consists of students who wish to obtain a deeper knowledge of the sciences. In the spring a fair is sponsored by the club. This competition is held in the gym with students entering projects which they have conceived and illustrated. At the biweekly meetings, either a scientific movie is shown or one of the. members explains a subject he has explored. Independent study is the by-word of this organization. AUDIO-VISUAL CLUB L to R: S. Waterman, Sec.; P. Fasoli, Treas.; B. Leahey, Pres.; D. Andersen, V.P Barbara Schiessl—Maj. 87 LATIN L to R: K. Jorgensen; Sec.; S. Graves, V.P.; A. Grimmiesen, As. Sec.; S. Kelly, Treas.; A. Seidler, Pres. The Roman Banquet is one activity that no Latin scholar ever misses. For this evening, every year, the gods and goddesses come down to earth in mortal form and it is not unusual to see Venus nibbling a carrot stick or Apollo struggling with a loaf of bread. Even Caesar would have approved of the authenticity of the banquet, but it is the fun that makes it memorable. “Finis Coronat Opus” FRENCH CLUB The mirthful enchantment of Paris, the buoyant friendli¬ ness of provincial countrysides, and the awesome beauty of medieval cathedrals subtly intermingle in the study of French. It is here that the student becomes acquainted with the flowing language and cultural environment of the French people and grows to a deeper understanding of their significance. L to R: B.

Spain, that mystical land across the sea . . . full of bull fighters and colorful dancers. In room 14, about 20 Spanish students meet to forward a knowledge of culture, customs, daily life, and interests of the Spanish speaking people. By understanding these we do far more than just learn a language. We learn about the people themselves and their gifts to the world through their language. 89 HIGH SCHOOL BAND Mr. Tanguay—Director of Music ALL STATE TRAINING BAND “B” Music brightens our lives”, is the philosophy of the music department, under the direction of Mr. Tanguay and Mr. Pacocha.
