WEBTIDE 1979 Armenia, New York It is with great respect and admiration that Webtide 1979 commemorates Miss Violet Simmons for her forty-five years of dedication to students and teaching. 2 THE FACULTY Teachers play an important role in shaping our lives, both in school and out. They offer extra help to students in need and advise our eighth period activities. Others coach our interscholastic sports and extra curricular activities. Without their continuing support, our participation in such events would be limited. The Webutuck faculty was captured in various poses and moods on the day before school started. The following pictures con- vey the casualness and informality of the atmosphere at Webutuck. This year there were a number of new teachers.

Soren Kierkegaard CLASS HISTORY In September 1973. a group of over 100 scared seventh- graders entered Webutuck Central School. Isolated in the portables, few of us knew what was going on in the high school We were preoccupied with our studies and activities. Our first dance was a record hop sponsored by the eighth grade. We elected Dicky Valentine as President. Jim Dun- can as Vice-President. Lauri Honour as Secretary. Jim Kreil- ing as Treasurer, and Tom Romano and Tom Cole were the Student Council Representatives. Mr Thompson was our advisor in both seventh and eighth grades, and we opened our bank account with proceeds from a bake sale. Eighth grade found the Class of '79 a little more settled and secure—a bit more comfortable in the big halls. We sold candles and brought in over $100.00. which seemed like a significant amount at the time. We continued our bake sales. Mr Thompson and Mr Holt took a group of us to Washington. D C. that year, and we had a lot of fun. The class officers were: Pat Fernandez. President; Sharon Webb. Vice-President; and Susan Flinn. Secretary Mike Miller and Tom Flood were the Treasurers, and Jim Duncan and Cathy Phillips served on The Student Council. Ninth grade brought us into the High School world. Some- how. an awaking came upon us. and we began to know more of the upperclassmen. We were finally able to go to Senior High dances. We took our first Regents. It was not an ac- tive year for the group as a class, but we discovered other things, such as interscholastic sports. Gary Murphy was President. Dan Merwin was Vice-President. Aileen O'Hara was Secretary, and Tom Flood was Treasurer. Lauri Honour. Jim Duncan and Cathy Phillips was Student Coun- cil Representatives. Mr. Kelly was our advisor. The 1976-1977 school year was one that many will re- member for a long time. Due to an austerity budget, inter- scholastic sports were run by the Booster Club. School morale was very low. although the Student Council tried hard to lessen feelings of apathy. One thing that was ac- complished was the Final Exam Exemption Policy. Eighth period was made voluntary, and we were able to leave school at 2:30. Under the direction of President Susan Flinn. the Class of '79 sold Webutuck Warrior Bic Pens and Reeses Cups. Sharon Webb was Vice-President. Teri Flanigan was Secretary. Rayme Callahan was Treasurer, and Lauri Honour. Jim Duncan and Gary Murphy were Student Council Repre- sentatives. In the following year, as Juniors, we became frightfully aware of just how much it would take to finance a prom. We held many fund-raising activities, including a record raffle, bake sales and selling Reeses Cups. We began to realize how time flies, and began to think about the future. Ken Walsh was elected President. Andrew Erskine was Vice-President. Karen O'Connell was Secretary, and Rayme Callahan was Treasurer Susan Highley. Tom Romano and Jim Duncan were Student Council Representatives. Aileen O'Hara was Prom Committee Chairperson and Mr Merwin was the Class Advisor. Can it be true? We re finally Seniors. It seems that the years have gone by so quickly. Frank Collier served as President. Tom Romano was Vice-President. Karen O'Connell was Secretary and Tom Flood was Treasurer. In the fall, we held the annual magazine drive. We raised money by selling lobsters. Our class advisors were Mr. Riemer. Mr Reagon. and Mr Waldinger. 51 We, Webutuck’s Class of 1979, do hereby proclaim our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT: Laura R. leaves her sister. Marcelle, to carry on the memories of Webutuck.

Kam UP THE DOWN STAIRCASE Calvin Coolidge High School came to life in May 1978 when Webutuck performers presented “Up the Down Staircase. Superb acting by the whole cast, under the direction of Mr Riemer. made the play a smashing success. Susan Hutchinson, who had the female lead, played Sylvia Barrett, a young teacher. The curtain opened with Sylvia about to teach her first class. Through- out the play she has resilient enthusiasm and genuine concern for her students. Joe luliano played the part of Joe Ferone. Ferone is a hostile, insolent student who gives Sylvia nothing but problems. She finally does get through to him. This becomes apparent when Joe begs her to teach him an shouts. “I’m tired of going up the down stair- case! Jay Shoifet played Mr McHabe. a domineering assistant principal, whose only motto is discipline. Ann Heinsohn had the role of Bea Schacter. an experienced teacher, who encourages Sylvia to “get to what the students are really saying. Some of the faculty roles were taken by David Shufelt. Wally Murphy. Dan Merwin and Laura Shoifet. All of the students were sensational. Excellent per- formances were carried out by Kenny Walsh. Richard Cummings. Bernadette Anderson. Jim Dunca. and Carla Ciancio. International'Intercultural Programs Programmes Intemationaux Interculturels l rogrunuis Internationales Interculturuies Dear Webutuck: This has been a very special year for me. A year in which I have seen so many new things and gotten to know so many new people. Both have been fantastic Webutuck has the good fortune to be placed in such a pretty area. I love the high hills. The fall was very nice; the winter I also enjoyed. We are having snow in Denmark too. but the conditions are not too good for skiing. Webutuck is a nice little school and I like being able to choose some of my subjects. Everyone has been very good and helpful to me and I would like to thank you all. Love. Bente Last summer Pat Fernandez visited Israel with AFS’s Americans Abroad Program. After staying briefly in London and Athens, she received a week of orientation in Tel Aviv and met her ••Family’'. Pat lived in Hadera. Israel, and en- joyed a relating summer swimming in the Meditteranean. trying to learn Hebrew and traveling around the country. Her AFS brother was also an exchange student and came to spend the Christmas holidays with the Fernandez family. Pat feels that the experience was an excellent one - she became more aware of other people and other cultures. Her Israeli family was very understanding and helped her to become familiar with the country and its peculiarities - one of which was the air raid shelter to avoid enemy bombings. Susan Highley went to Italy last summer on the AFS Americans Abroad Program also. The town she stayed in San Gimignano, is a medieval city located near Florence. Instead of staying with AFS family, she and four other Ameri- cans. from other parts of the United States, spent the sum- mer at a work camp, with an Italian brother”. They work- ed at a summer camp for small children for three weeks and gave English lessons to residents of the town. Susan spent the second half of her summer in the cobblestone city as an apprentice to a brass bed craftsman. The group ventured away from the thirteen ancient towers of San Gimignano to spend a few days in Florence and a week in Rome. Friendships formed during this important summer have been continued through letters and visits. 87 FRENCH SPANISH CLUB Under the direction of Mr. Ernst, these language clubs meet eighth period. They experienced other cultures by preparing dishes that are native to French and Spanish speaking countries. A.F.S CLUB Through A.F.S., Webutuck has been enriched by welcoming students from abroad. Two students from Webutuck were able to spend an enlighting sum- mer overseas, and shared their experi- ences with out community. Every Friday night during the winter, a bus took students to Cata- mount. Many took lessons and everyone had a good time. SKI CLUB QUIZ TEAM Webutuck's Quiz Team lost in a close contest against Schlamont. Later in February they were fea- tured on a radio program 89 X TUTOR CLUB Many concerned students have offered their assistance to help fellow peers academ- ically.

Putting this book together has been a worthwhile endeavor that the Webtide staff will long remember. We would like to thank Mr. Riemer, who gave his time and talent of photography. Mrs. Bartel deserves our gratitude and much more, for without her we would have been lost. The staff hopes that everyone will treasure this book and the memories it holds. Raynie Callahan Beth Killmer 143 As imperciptibly as grief The summer lapsed away, Too imperceptible, at last, To seem like perfidy. A quietness distilled. As twilight long begun, Or Nature, spending with herself Sequestered afternoon. The dusk drew earlier in. The morning foreign shone, A courteous, yet harrowing grace, As guest that would be gone. And thus, without a wing, Or service of a keel. Our summer made her light escape Into the beautiful. —Emily Dickinson
