Class History Try To Remember . . . We climbed the worn stairs to our homerooms on the third floor. Freshmen.” We looked for new friends; we wanted to belong, to be a part of Turners Falls High School. We were initiated into the social world as the upperclassmen welcomed us at the Freshman Reception. Eager to show our class spirit, a few of our classmates formulated a motto which we won’t forget: ’68 is Great! Proudly, we carried this motto to our first Thanksgiving rally. As the months passed, we begin to mingle with the upperclassmen. We prepared to cast off our title of Freshmen.” When You Were A Gay And Callow Fellow , . . We returned as upperclassmen; we gained new confidence. Sophomores.” The man who had first guided us, Mr. George F. Wrightson, had resigned the previous spring. We now looked toward a new leader, a new friend — Mr. William Cook. We, too, became new leaders. We stepped toward unity with the election of our class officers: Dennis Richotte, President; Richard Dobosz, Vice-President; Debra Campbell, Secretary; Anne Gamelin, Treasurer; Carol Novak, Historian. We were caught up in the excitement of the Turkey Day game. Desire” was the word our boys desired victory. We cheered ourselves hoarse as our team smashed through the green wall” for a 28-14 win. After fifteen years of waiting, victory was ours! We began our first class project — the Sophomore Social. With candy canes and paper reindeer, we disguised the gym as a Christmas Wonderland.” Our successful evening was completed by the triumphant escape of Santa Claus from the evil plots of the master spy Coldfinger. As our second year ended, we elected several classmates to represent us on the first Student Council. Another year behind us — we remembered, but we looked to the future. When Dreams Were Kept Beneath Your Pillow . . . Eager to resume our former activities and anxious to meet new challenges, we once again entered the halls of T.F.H.S. Juniors.” This year was one of change for us. Our enviable 1 o’clock dismissal time was changed to 2:30; a nutritious bag lunch program was introduced. Prune whip and raisin salad were tops” on everybody’s list. Early in the year we elected our class officers: Dennis Richotte, President; Richard Sojka, Vice-President; Sharon McCarthy, Secretary; Patricia Ouellette, Treasurer; Joanne Long, Historian. Their job was to lead us in this year of challenge and change.
