There are many activities and events to get involved in during and after school. Maybe you enjoy dancing, and if so, you could have gone to the first annual Homecoming Dance, The Cotillion, The February 11th Dance, Club 78, and the Prom, just to name a few. Senior Class children lovers got involved in planning and running Halloween Day, and flower lovers had many chances to buy carnations and roses for their sweethearts. If music was for you, a concert by Ed Sullivan, or your fellow classmates performing vocally could keep you busy. The Music Department went on an Exchange trip to Canada, in addition to Foreign Language stu¬ dents who traveled to Martinique and Venezuela. Thespians had many Wellesley High ' s own panda bear (David Bales) chances to show their talents in The Real Inspector Hound, Rum- plestiltskm, and The Good Doctor, which made it to the semi-finals in the Massachusetts State Drama Festival! Rallies and spirit week allowed for real “school” spirit to surface along with all the snowmen built during the free week supplied by the Blizzard of 78. The Up With People cast performed for us during Easter weekend. Students were rewarded for their accomplishments with member¬ ships in the National Honor Society, Who’s Who in Music, the Academic and Athletic Awards Assemblies, and elections to the All-Star Teams.

Skits which were pro¬ vided by all classes, the cheerleaders, the twirlers, the Senior Squaws and the Key Club were as crazy as ever this year, and gave everyone a good laugh. The All-Sports Rally was emceed by Lauren Griffiths and Robert Donohue. Honoring all Autumn Sports, this rally was a success and a pleasure. The Annual Thanksgiving Rally, led by Mike Tavis and Nancy E. Miller, was filled with laughs and memories for all involved. The highlight of the Thanksgiving Rally was the traditional Spirit Award, given to the class that showed the most enthusi¬ asm during Spirit Week. Needless to say, the seniors won. Ghosts and witches, old bums and red devils, descended upon Wellesley’s elemen¬ tary schools. What did it mean? Only, of course, that the Senior class was once again sponsoring a Halloween Party for the Wellesley community. For one afternoon, Friday the twenty-eighth of October, the WHS girl’s gym was gaily transformed into the site of the Halloween happening. The room was filled to the doors with Wellesley’s elementary school children. There were goblins and cowboys; even a tiny R2-D2, all wandering from booth to booth. Long lines marked the favorite stations, such as the haunted house, the fortune teller, and the football toss. The party was a lot of work for the cos¬ tumed senior hosts, from preparing bal¬ loons with shaving cream to baking goods for the accompanying parents. Many help¬ ers admitted, however, to enjoying the party as much as the guests. Halloween Day also served as one of the first “traditional” activ¬ ities in which the class could feel the special togetherness that would be enjoyed throughout the many projects of Senior year.

Present students and Wellesley High School alumni were invited to the first annual Homecoming Dance, sponsored by the Senior class. Due to the kind contributions of many parents of seniors, the dance was well chaperoned and was a great success. The attendance was good considering that this semi-formal homecoming dance was the first event of its type to take place at Wellesley High. Hopefully during the coming years, this dance will become a meeting place for all alumni, in keeping with the Thanksgiving game spirit. 26 DANCES AND THE CHRISTMAS COTILLION This year, the Christmas Cotillion was a great success. Romance filled the air during this special evening which involved cocktails, dinner, and dancing. Although the enthusi¬ asm for school dances has waned over the past few years, the 1977 senior and Gridiron Club dances regained some of their original popularity. Both dances were highly successful. At the senior class dance everyone “boogied down to the sound of “Graham Cole,” while “What ' s Next 7 ” played some lively tunes to jive to at the Gridiron Club Dance. Hopefully, with their increased popularity, dances will again rank high on our activ¬ ity lists.

Many of the most down-to- earth students were caught in the air, displaying the immense talent that makes the Gym Show so popular. New on the scene were Gumbies, an act never to be forgotten. Emcees Dottie Nicolo and David St. Jean even displayed their own brand of talent and or humor. All in all, the Gym Show was a night never to be forgotten. Kirk’s always horsed around.

Under the direction of Jay Jostyn, Bob Donohue, and Dave Bates, the featured acts performed smoothly with a high degree of professionalism. Emcees Nancy E. Miller and Bill Hayes provided some excite¬ ment in between acts, introducing several tableaux which parodied the Gym Show. “Southbound” and “Judas” both executed several numbers, while Sue Foster, Janet Piro, Lynn Coyle, and Linda Paltrineri all delighted the audience. The quartet of Sue Odden, Barby Buzzell, Janice Cleveland and Jackie Davies choreographed their own jazz music. The Baldrineri Sisters were the only disap¬ pointment, being forcibly removed from the stage, for even the Calendar Girls proved not to be a dated act. The considerable earnings were used by the Student Government to fund “Project Adventure,” an outdoor skills course to be used as a gym class offering. 32 Variety Show 33 The academic year of 1977-78 was the culmination of our three years at Wellesley High School During our high school careers, we just barely managed to complete our years of senior high school before a final decision was made on the accreditation, something with which previous classes had not been confronted. The effort to retain accreditation became an important part of our school experi¬ ence. However, we were able to concentrate on academic work even as the issue of accreditation hung over our heads and the din of ren¬ ovations drowned out the voices of our teachers. We spent many hours in various academic pursuits, preparing for tests and papers or worrying about not being prepared. The very brave went to class unprepared and the rest of us did at least the minimum of studying or mysteriously forgot our homework. Period by period, we got by. Whether it was in languages or history, industrial arts or independ¬ ent study, the class periods added up to days, the days to weeks, and the weeks to a unique three years. With the approach of April 15, we anxiously awaited the rewards of our time spent over books in the form of college acceptances and, for some, job acceptances. The worth of our years of academic work was evaluated in each letter we received from colleges. In some cases, the value added up to acceptance at the college of their choice and in others, disappointment. As May arrived, followed by graduation, we realized the many things we had learned and how close we had become to each other while pursuing knowledge. Mid¬ years and finals were behind us as were surprise physics quizzes and English term projects. Even homeroom announcements and A period gym classes seemed like long forgotten nightmares. All the work, frustration, excitement and boredom suddenly seemed worth it. As we left, we hope¬ fully retained this feeling and were on our way to many bet¬ ter things for which our experiences at Wellesley High had prepared us.

These profes¬ sionals were appointed by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges to assess Wellesley Senior High’s educational programs and accreditation status. For the past few years, Wellesley High had been placed on probation for accreditation by the Association, primarily because of poor facilities in the Library and Industrial Arts areas. However, on April 3rd, the town finally approved the 4th addition plan (since 1971) in a townwide referendum, so that a correction of the building deficiencies was assured prior to the visiting committee’s onsite evaluation. During the second week in June, the full written report was distributed to the fac¬ ulty, School Committee and the town. According to Principal Connors, the findings of the report were 24 separate areas that the committee evaluated indepth ranging from school-community relations, the entire curriculum, student activities, the school’s facilities, the staff, administration and guidance. There were 101 commen¬ dations and 177 recommendations (80 of which refer to building deficiencies or health and safety concerns.) Their lenghty report is available in either Mr. Connor’s or Mr. Vasaturo’s office for any citizen interested in reading it. UPPER RIGHT: Is that the “M” drawer for • ' men?

The three courses having the greatest enroll¬ ment, “English Skills,” “Analytical and Expository Writing,” and “Let’s Write” are all highly recommended by the department. This year, the enrollment in Phase I courses also increased slightly. The other opportunities open to juniors and seniors are the Phase II, III, and IV courses, which vary in the degree of difficulty and the amount of work. Sophomores are tracked into levels according to recommendations made by past teachers. Some literature courses were not subscribed to by students, such as “Women in Literature” and “Survey of English Litera¬ ture.” In the future it is hoped that thesecourses will become more popular. Other hoped for change s includethe institution of a writing lab, and better facilities for speech, debate, and drama classes. For next year, a new course in “Journalism” was added.

For students needing help in reading, whether it was speed or comprehension, the Reading Department was the place to be. A new study method developed by Miss Gor¬ don reiterated the main goal of the department, which was to make reading more pleasurable for everyone. BOTTOM: Meg Bryant.

FLUENCY IS IMPORTANT AND POPULAR Although no new courses were added to the foreign language curriculum, the department did welcome a new teacher and an increase in the enrollment in Latin. Mr. George Harrington became part of the staff to teach both French and Spanish. SLu- dents showed a renewed interest in Latin as additional classes had to be created to accommodate everyone. Through the use of field trips, the language lab, and literary class discussions on a variety of subjects, interest in all of the foreign language offerings was maintained. With the help of these teaching aids, the faculty tried to make the students as proficient as possible in their chosen languages, thus preparing them for college language requirements and promoting international understand¬ ing. foreign languages 43 BELOW: The band members rehearsed for a concert. MUSIC MOTIVATION This year’s music department once again enlightened the atmosphere at Wellesley High School. A new choral group called Concert Choir added a melodi- ous sound to the concerts, joined by the veteran choral groups, A Capella Choir, the Madrigals and the Lyrics. The marching band and stage band added a spir¬ ited note to several musical and athletic performances. During this past year, the music department has experienced many suc¬ cesses. One of these was the new practice room which is used regularly by the students. A new course this year was electronic music which entailed learning and working with a synthesizer. This turned out to be enjoyable and interesting for the students. The musical groups shared their talents with others as they performed during their annual exchange trip to Ontario, Canada. Also, fifty choral students per¬ formed in a special program with the Greater Boston Youth Symphony orches¬ tra. The hard work by these students throughout the year proved to be worth¬ while.

These offerings range from crafts and photography to fashion design and dance. Included in the program are courses concerning career possibilities in the field of art. The Art Department’s main goal is to draw a relationship, wherever possible, between all arts and academic subjects. It is the staffs hope that they help their art students to better cope with life and have more pleasure in being. TOP LEFT: Making mud pies, Laurie 7 (Laurie Donahue) TOP RIGHT: Ready, aim, fire!

Modern European History was offered for the first time on a level one basis, and A.P. United States History completed its second year. Both were popular classes with large enrollments. The survey courses were popular among Juniors fulfilling U.S. History requirements, while topical electives such as U.S. Foreign Policy and The American Military were cancelled because of lack of interest. Difficulty in scheduling of Social Studies electives contributed to the overall drop in enrollment. However, those students who did choose courses such as Political Science or Contemporary Affairs, discovered new dimensions of politics, sociology, and economics. Though the size of the faculty is decreasing, the department hopes to con¬ tinue to enlighten students on historical facts as well as contemporary issues.

Miss Leonard met with students to discuss several opportu¬ nities for occupational interests, one of which was job exploration in the community. This option involved actual participation by students in the vocation of their choice. Another option open to students was mini¬ courses ranging from animal care to auto repair. These courses lasted for six weeks and were set up to give the students a chance to experiment with an interest which they may wish to pursue in the future. There is hope of expanding these mini-courses. A special opportunity extended to students this year was the chance to attend the Career Day sponsored by the Wellesley Jaycees and Margaret Heckler’s office. At this event, general information about a wide range of occupations was presented. Miss Leonard’s main goal is to get more students involved with the Career Education Program and to consequently give them some direction for their careers.

(Mark Ledemos, Maria Gavris, Margaret Heckler) BOTTOM LEFT: Having a career can be fun. (Cathy Hankin, Kate Clauson, David St. Jean) PHYSICAL EDUCATION BECOMES COEDUCATIONAL Although certain selections in the Physical Education Department have been coed in the past, this was the first year that all offerings were made available to every student regardless of sex. The teachers had to spend extra time organizing the coed units, but the students seemed to appre ciate the change and the wide variety of choices. These options ranged from units such as aerobic dancing, weight training, and jogging to more traditional sports such as soccer, basketball and softball. Another change which made the students happy was the abolition of gym uniforms. Through these changes, the Physical Education Department made the mandatory physical education requirements more enjoyable and continued to help students develop skills and interests in a variety of sports. TOPICS IN HEALTH TOP LEFT: Mr. St. Cyr instructing his class. MIDDLE RIGHT: Building muscles in the weight room. BOTTOM RIGHT: Laura Sullivan smiling because she’s in good “Health. BOTTOM LEFT: Andy swings again. (Andy Fay) career ed health p.e. This year marked the third year that the sophomore health class was required at Wellesley Senior High School. Over the past three years, several changes have taken place in the course. One major change this year was the switch from a pass fail to a standard letter grading system. This alteration was made because the previous method did not award the above- average or excellent student. Mrs. McCaskill, who has taught this course for three years, said the curriculum was also less difficult than last year’s. This year’s course dealt with physical, mental and social health. It covered such topics as the circulatory, respiratory and muscular systems, sleep, mental illness and first aid, including some fundamental life-saving techniques. Attendance levels in the classes have improved since the course began two years ago. In future years, it is hoped that with the increased number of students, facilities will be improved. THE BUSINESS WORLD The Business Department gave many students the chance to prepare for col¬ lege and careers in business by develop¬ ing skills such as accounting, shorthand, and typing. Its course offerings were very popular with over 50% of the stu¬ dent body enrolled in at least one course. The most popular classes seemed to be typing, Law U.S.A., and Introduction to Accounting. Throughout the year, stu¬ dents were forced to contend with cramped and crowded classrooms. In the future, the department hopes to get approval for a school store which would offer a greater amount of practical expe¬ rience to those students planning to enter business immediately after gradua¬ tion.

This year, as in the past, the library offered students a large collection of books, magazines and records for their enrichment and enjoyment. The space available for this collection was limited, but the library staff still provided services such as teaching sophomores how to use basic reference materials and instructing senior history classes in the use of sophisticated reference materials. One change made in the library was the conversion of the back room into a reference room and a room for use by classes visiting the library. In addition tothis room, the Audio-Visual room across the hall supplied equipment such as microfilm viewers to supplement the library resources. In spite of space limitations, the library was proud of its wide collection which included almost 25,000 volumes, over 1000 records, and over 200 periodicals. business library 5 I TOP LEFT: Beverlee and friend.

A new curriculum was instituted in the Home Economics Department this year, and it met with great success. With the awareness that Home Economics is not just cook¬ ing and sewing, the department developed its new curriculum around the theme of preparing students for adult life. The new curriculum brought about a tripling of the enrollment in home economics courses, along with an increase in male enrollment. The five disciplines of home economics are: human development, housing and interior design, consumer education, clothing and textiles, and food and nutrition. The new courses developed from these basic disciplines offered a broad range of interesting and relevant courses. With the new curriculum, came a new department director, Lynne Novogroski, and a new staff member, Barbara DiGuiseppe. In the coming years they hope to add even more courses, including Surviving Independent Living, Issues in Child Develop¬ ment, and a sequel to Housing and Interior Design. The new curriculum has helped to change old images of home economics and stu¬ dent interest and support have confirmed this idea. 52 LACK OF FACILITIES STILL A PROBLEM FOR INDUSTRIAL ARTS Faced with inadequate facilities, the Industrial Arts Department continues its program with an adequate budget and well qualified teachers. There was a sta¬ ble enrollment, but no new courses or teachers were added. This department was one under close scrutiny as failing to meet the needs of all students. Courses not represented could not be offered because of a lack of space, and those courses already imple¬ mented were severely limited by the facil¬ ities. For one course, Electricity-Electron¬ ics, the participating students had to go to the junior high school. Industrial Arts courses are organized for the purpose of helping all students cope successfully in our technological society by exploring interests and apti¬ tudes, learning about various careers, preparing for college, preparing for fur¬ ther technical training, preparing for work, and gaining consumer as well as vocational values. The department wishes to better meet the needs of all students. TOP LEFT: Building a house. MIDDLE LEFT: Did you hit your thumb already 7 (Tommy Doherty) MIDDLE RIGHT: Designing a house?

CONTINUES RADICAL TEACHING The Math Department continued to offer the complete and flexible program which it has had in the past. In addi¬ tion to the Geometry, Algebra, and Calculus courses, several elective courses were available, including “Matrix Algebra,” “Probability and Statistics,” and several com¬ puter programming classes. A change in this year ' s department is the absence of Ross Hunter who is on a one year’s leave. Mrs. Jennifer Carmody is filling in for him until his return. This year’s enrollment in Advanced Placement Calcu¬ lus was larger than ever before. In the future, however, the department would like to offer a non-A.P. Calculus course and a semester course to prepare students for SAT’S. Another improvement hoped for in the future is the institution of a Math Lab Resource Room to be used for giving extra help to math students. 54 TOP LEFT: Thelightattheendof the tunnel.

Jose phine DeVincenzi, a familiar face to the high school, became a part-time biology teacher as well as a part-time gym teacher. David Kahn also joined the ranks as a teacher of natural science and Chemistry 23. Replacing the departed Richard Hayes, Ray Scannell, Jr. was the popular teacher of psychology. Since there were no new programs this year, A.P. Chemistry and Astronomy had a chance to plant their roots. The department was a strong one as indicated by the results of Achievment Tests. Two factors inproving scien¬ tific study were the addition of two laboratory classrooms, and the extension of advanced placement courses from five periods per week to six. The latter recommendation was made by the College Entrance Examination Board. The Science department of the Wellesley High School sees as one of many of its goals the preparation of scien¬ tifically literate students for the world at large and for col¬ lege level science programs. A diversity of science offer¬ ings, with a stress on the spirit of inquiry, will hopefully stimulate student interest in scientific careers and make students aware of the cultural impact that science has on the total society.

Under the direction of coordinator Earl Kelton, the program did very well. The purpose of the program is to provide the same services and treatment for the Metco Students as the Wellesley resident students, and to have the participants become a vital part of Wellesley High School. It is hoped that through the program, black and white students will accept each other as equals. The organization had numerous field trips, highlighted by one to N.Y.C. In the city, the group visited the United Nations building, Harlem, and went to see the broadway hit, “Bubbling Brown Sugar.” The students also visited Fitchburg State College in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. This was an excellent chance to view the cam¬ pus and discuss post-graduate options and college opportunities.

Living at Norfolk Terrace, this year’s seven A.B.C. girls originate from the Northeast and Midwest primarily, but have successfully become an integral part of Wellesley High School, and have left a lasting impression on all those fortunate enough to have met them.

The students involved in this program go to school in the morning, and are employed in the community in the afternoon. The students are paid for their work. If they have met the requirements for this program, they receive credit towards their high school graduation requirements. These students must meet with Mr. Rockwood Edwards, the Work Study Coordinator, once a week for any needed information or counseling they are encouraged to schedule at least one course which is related to their job experience.

(Frank Noyes) 58 Through independent study, students were given the opportunity to reach out beyond the perimeters of Wellesley High School to learn by means of personal experience. The various programs which were offered under independent study provided a diverse selection. Among the choices offered was a ten week seminar on Marine Biology. This included visits to an underwater laboratory at Woods Hole and to the Whaling Museum in New Bedford, along with experi¬ mentation on Cuttyhunk Island. Another offering was an expedition in Colorado for three weeks. Ten students explored natural history and the history of the West while backpacking and visiting National Parks. A third program available to students involved studying and work¬ ing outside of the school. This year, among other things, students were involved as Big Brothers or Big Sisters and as teachers’ aides. Others worked at the State House or in hospitals or took classes at Wellesley College. Whatever they did, the students participating in independent study programs gained a knowledge of the outside world and of themselves. They acquired a self-confidence and personal responsi¬ bility which only this unique experience could offer. TOP RIGHT: Physical Therapist Laurie Gregg. BOTTOM LEFT: “It ' s Greek to me! (Beth Sullivan) independent study work study 59 Alternate Semester The Alternate Semester program has completed its last year. In future years, it will be run in cooperation with Independent Study, and regarded as an internship. The student’s schedule will be constructed around the internship, and the experience will be similar to an extended independent study. This year, three students participated in the senior elective program: Stephanie Sunn, Andy Lovett, and John Dillabaugh. Stephanie worked at the Engineering firm of “Melcalf and Eddy” in the financial and engi¬ neering departments. She chose this area in order to explore both the engineering and accounting fields. Andy served as a tutor at the Multi-Service Center working with ele¬ mentary school students. His students are referred to the center on an out-of-school basis. Mr. Lovett also worked with the psychologists at the center, observing their methods and engaging them in discussions. Being a production assistant was good introduction to the communi¬ cations industry for John Dillabaugh. Working on sets and performing other odd jobs at station CPTV (public television) in Hartford, Connecti¬ cut, John gained insight into broadcasting. This allowed him to expand his horizons and determine whether or not his work in the communica¬ tions field was worthwhile. In sum, each of the students fulfilled the goal of Alternate Semester: to expose a student to a particular job field and allow the student to judge whether that field was a realistic option for the future.

(Charlene Gigliotti) Distributive Education Distributive Education is a retailing and merchandising co-op course which provides students with the ability to properly run a business. The students enrolled in distrib¬ utive education are employed by various businesses throughout the community and work approximately fif¬ teen hours a week. The classroom discussions are directly related to the students’ jobs. Several business approaches are discussed in class such as: “What to buy ’ “When to buy ’ “How to sell a product ' and “Why people buy.’’ Students are usually enrolled in this program for two years. After completion of the course in their senior year, they are well prepared for either college or a business career.

Although losing friendships built over the past three years, the faculty is as usual well prepared to handle the challenges of the upcoming underclassmen. Regardless of the fact that the staff often remains until late at night tutoring students or coaching one of Wellesley ' s athletic teams, the faculty still has time to persue individual interests. Teach¬ ers too have lives of their own, and as a group have many diversified talents. They include bicycling, skiing, tennis, swimming, gardening, gourmet cooking, travelling, and sailing among others. Wayne Had- lock ' s “School of Nautical Floating, and Gerry Murphy’s “Put and Blub are two of the more unusual interests, while Mr. Crockett ' s gardening skills are world famous. Ray Scannell and David Webster have both run in the B.A.A. Marathon. Bob Davis, a concert trombon¬ ist, can often be seen at the Chateau deVille, and Gardner Mar- chant’s toy soldier collection is the best in New England. Overall, the Wellesley High staff is a diversified and multitalented group, and in the following pages the Wellesleyan editors would like to show you their personal side. 62 OPPOSITE PAGE: UPPER CORNER: Uncle Fester (Mr. Davis) LOWER LEFT CORNER: Our Own Mr. Vasaturo LOWER RIGHT CORNER: Another Polish Joke?

Over 250 students, both male and female, have set new records, received cov¬ eted All-Star awards, and conquered league titles. For three years, the boys’ soccer team made the State Tourney and the girls ' soccer team reached the ’77 state finals only to lose to the arch rival Needham. The girls ' Field Hockey team made the states all 3 years finish¬ ing 2nd in our junior year. The fall also produced a much finer cross-coun¬ try team in ' 77. After 3 cold winters at high school, the class of ' 78 managed to strengthen the winter teams to positions never previously attained. The basketball team went from 8th place our sophomore year to 4th place our junior year. As seniors, they finished second and qualified for the State Tourney for the first time in nine years. The hockey team finished in ' 78 with their first .500 season in 3 years. Our fine wrestlers conquered two Bay State Titles and many individuals placed quite well in the state compe¬ tition. The girls b-ball team placed 3rd in the Bay State and reached the semi-finals of the states — an unprecedented march. The spring of ' 77 brought the finest golf team in Wellesley history as they were undefeated in Bay State Competition, victors of the E-Mass Tourney and 12th in the entire state. Our excel¬ lent lacrosse team managed top of the league finishes every year. All in all, the class of ’78 came with talent that improved Wellesley’s athletic program many times over. Our class can leave without regretting anything about high school sports, because we have produced and enjoyed som some of the finest and most memorable times of our lives.

The team took on a new look when the former J.V. coach, Peter Loiter joined Phil Davis in coaching the boys’ varsity soccer team. Perhaps the reason for the team’s successful season can be contributed to its all-around bal¬ ance. Three sophomores on the Varsity squad, Alan Cathcart, Brent Miklavic, and Juan Pardo did an excellent job facing their first year of var¬ sity competition. Pardo, a student from Spain, turned out to be the team ' s finest offensive man. However, he could not have been the leading scorer without senior full-back and co-captain, Andrew May at defense and the other co-captain Dwight Garland at midfield with his consistent passing. Theteam had become an efficient and well-pol¬ ished unit when last year’s leading scorer, Char¬ lie Cathcart, returned from a knee injury halfway through the season. The starting unit of All-Star Co-Captains May and Garland, Jon Glass, Mike Tavis, Joe Bacola, Jay Cody, and Andrew Fay confused many opposing players with their crisp passing and potent shots. Juniors Chip Kerber, Dave West, and Steve O’Leary also played con¬ sistently fine offense. The defense was led game after game by Keith Greenfield in goal. Greenfield had a superb season and aver¬ aged about one goal a game. The Raiders bowed out of the State Tournament in the first round as they fell prey to Danvers. With solid talent return¬ ing, the Wellesley High Soccer Team is sure to keep up with their superior tradition. • vVr va .V j left to right: Marty Kinkead, John Levy, Jon Glass, Charlie Cathcart, Keith Greenfield, Andy May, Dwight Garland, Juan Pardo, Kirk Miklavic, Dave West, John Noble, Jay Cody.

For the past two years, the Cross Country Team had won a total of only six meets. This year, they turned the tables around and went undefeated to clinch the Bay State League Championship. The main reason for the Varsity Cross Country Team’s success this year was their experience and hard work. The top five Wellesley runners were all seniors. Four of the top five runners had been running since their sophomore years and therefore, gained the valuable experience needed to win. The Cross Country Team worked seven days a week, rain or shine. Another reason for the Cross Country Team’s success was due to the superior coaching. Coach St. Cyr always kept the team motivated and work¬ ing hard. The Wellesley runners had complete confidence in Coach St. Cyr and they knew that he could coach them to a championship season. During the course of the season, one could see much improvement in each of the Wellesley run¬ ners. Senior Co-Captain Bill Bolles was the most improved runner. This year Bill surprised many teams with his superior performances. Senior Co- Captain Shawn Whalen was also an irreplaceable Wellesley runner. This year was Shawn’s third year of cross country and he consistently finished as a front runner. Seniors Emmet Seaborn and Ed Mitchell were a couple of the hardest working individuals on the team. They also were three year veterans and steadily improved throughout the year. Senior Paul Murray had an excellent cross country season. Paul finished first in almost all the meets and broke the all-time course record by nine seconds, set in 1965. His time was 12:09. Varsity runners returning next year are Tim Morrison, Jack Wrobleski, Paul Sackley and Peter Foley. Under the leadership of these four run¬ ners, things should look good for a successful season in 1978.

Co-Captain Janie Keefe ponders with Coach Phillips. M.V.P. Allison Pruyne Although the girls’ soccer team is only two years old, they have shown that age is not required as long as there is talent. Led by their all-star captains, Lauren Gregg and Janie Keefe, and the coaching of Betsy Phillips, they forged on to an unforgettable season. During the regular season, the team was led offensively by Dottie Nicolo, Paula Kilmain, and Anne Hadley, and defensively by Linda Litle, Lau¬ ren Griffiths, and Lisa Andersen. The unmatched performances of the team resulted in an impres¬ sive 11-1-1 regular season record. This was only the beginning, because the first year of the East¬ ern Mass. Tournament was still undecided. The quarter-finals against Newton North proved a tough match. Super Sophomore Beth Carrillo and Junior Stephanie Fernald were strong assets in this game. After standard over¬ time and the beginning of sudden death, Lisa Berdan pushed in a penalty shot for a 1 -0 victory. The semi-finals against Foxboro were led by the offense and goals from co-captain Laurie Gregg and Sophomore Sarah Bierbaum. The entire sea¬ son was climaxed by the inevitable match-up between Wellesley and Needham. The game was an entire team effort, with standout perform¬ ances by Deirdre Sisk and defensive M.V.P. Ali¬ son Pruyne and goalie Lee Cattanach. The cohe¬ siveness of the offense was hurt by the lack of co¬ captain Janie Keefe due to an injury. The players pitched in individually to make it the finest team effort. The game ended in a 0-1 loss in triple overtime without goalies. The future looks bright for girls ' soccer because of strong support and rising sophomore and junior stars on the unde¬ feated J.V. team.

Despite numerous injuries and a lack of players to fill needed positions, the hardworking team pulled through with a final 4-6 record. Led by their able leader. Jack Pilecki, the Raid¬ ers displayed marked improvement over last year ' s team. This improvement was especially visible in the area of defense, whether blocking punts or sacking the rival quarterbacks, Charlie Gorman, Karl Johnson, Mark Lederhos, Mike Marchetti, Paul O ' Glishen, Aaron Singer, and Chris Wales always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. The offensive line also proved to be outstand¬ ing blockers. Opening the holes for the running backs were Peter Anastos, Andy Bigham, Nick Carazza, Terry Cunningham, Jack Ferguson, Bruno Perdoni, Jack Pilecki, Matt Moyes, Mike Thorn, Jeff Sears, and Tim Wilkinson. Leading the Wellesley attack was sophomore quarterback Dave Paltri- neri. When not passing to ends Scott Sherman and Michael Marchetti, Dave often handed off to running back Mark Lederhos. When Mark wasn’t running either Bob Montalto, Joe Spez- zano or Mike Thorn would strive for valuable yardage. Overall, it was a great season for Wellesley High football. Three of our play¬ ers, running back Mark Lederhos, Lineman Andy Bigham, and defensive back Dave Paltrineri were selected as members of the Bay State League All-Star Team. Although we were defeated this year by Need¬ ham in a close Thanksgiv¬ ing Day game, hopes are high for a victory next year, when 15 returning regulars will help build the team into one of the most outstand¬ ing football teams in the rough Bay State League.

They added color and spirit, on and off the field at football games, rallies, and parades. For the cheerleaders, it began like any other season. Practices commenced upon the first day of school in September and the cheerleaders could be found practicing their cheers and marches in just about any available space: the track, the mezzanine and even the parking lot. The squad, captained by Dana Morel and coached by Mrs. Marilyn Montalbano, faithfully and enthusiastically supported the soccer and football teams. But this year for the first time, a second squad was chosen to cheer for the winter season. Several of the former cheerleaders rejoined the squad, but five new members were added to the ranks. The squad of fifteen took on a new look when they donned bright, new uniforms and saddle shoes. A new coach, Mrs. Shirley Sullivan, spent many hours with the girls obtaining the new uniforms and attending almost all the basketball and hockey games. Under the leadership of captain, Leslie Larocca, the team cheered four or five nights weekly and also entered the Bay State Cheerlead¬ ing Competition in March. A letter submitted by senior Louise Chauncey, to WBZ’s Evening Magazine was the beginning of an exciting experience for an Evening Maga¬ zine segment aired on TV in April.

With a final record of 12-2, the girls were first in the Bay State League. First year coach Wendy Coleman demon¬ strated her fine coaching ability, leading the team all the way to the State Tournament. Co-captain Karen Brody, who was elected All-star player for the second year in a row, held the team together with excellent steady playing. Spikers Dori Keilt and Co-captain Patty Kane helped provide the aggressive offense. Also spik¬ ing were first year players Sue Carey and sophomore Bar¬ bara Browne. Mary Kay Browne was the second setter. Lau¬ rie Linnell provided strong serving and steady defense. The Junior Varsity team is to be highly congratulated for its 13 1 record. Setting for JV were Missy Cleveland and Laura Walsh. Spikers included Senior Julie Hodson and Patti Furb ush, Marianne Hill, and Sue Impallaria. Among the jun¬ iors spiking for JV were Karen Liepman, Patty Neville, Sue Sidd, and Georgianne Zaglakas. Unfortunately, the team sustained two injured players, Karen Ziegleman and Jackie Beckwith. Seeing that in its first three years the team has been league champs twice. The future looks very good for girls’ volleyball. First year spiker, Barbara Browne.

The multi-talented team, with its sensational 10-1-3 record, completely outplayed every one of its opponents for the entire season. The league All-Star game was one highlight of thrilling season. Three Wellesley girls, Heidi Man¬ chester, Kathy Reynolds, and Martha Sullivan, were chosen to the extremely selective and tal¬ ented squad. Wellesley contended with the All- Stars for one half of the All-Star game and played a brilliant game of field hockey, with the final score being a 1-1 tie. Post-season play was an additional source of excitement for the field hockey team, as under the guidance of its superb leader. Coach Chris¬ tine Burns, the squad advanced to the District Semi-Finals. The consistently fine play of both the offensive and defensive lines made every game a genuine team effort. The 1977 season was a memorable one, for despite only six returning veterans, the squad advanced far into the tournament play. It was an exciting, enjoyable and victorious season, as the Wellesley Field Hockey team proved again that it “doesn’t mess around.” Kneeling: Kendra Tremble, Christy Mitchell, Martha Sullivan, Heidi Manchester (co-capt.), Kathy Reynolds (co-capt.), Karen Johnson, Amy Boyd, Sue Langdon.

The boy’s team, coached by Ed Touhey, had a record of 7-2. The whole team put out their best and five boys were named Bay State League All Stars by the Boston Globe. They were: Scott Goe- mans, John Levey, Adam Sutton for the 200 yard med¬ ley relay, and Hunter Adams for the 100 yard back- stroke. Scott Goemans also broke the 100 yard breas- troke record with a time of 1:07.1. The girls’ swim team was coached this year by Mrs. Mary Reuland. Their overall record was 4-4. With the leadership of co-captains Linda Paltrineri and Carolyn Elliot, the s wim team had an excellent season. The girls swim team also participated in a relay carnival. Seven teams were in this relay and Wellesley, after an outstanding display of talent, came in first. Wellesley’s swim teams again did very well this year and everyone has hopes for an even better upcoming season.

(Laurie Greeg) The girl’s basketball team started this year’s season with little experience, but much determi¬ nation. Each girl had to work hard to earn a start¬ ing position as there were no returning starters. The five starters finally chosen we re co-captains Laurie Gregg and Alison Pruyne, senior Lee Cat¬ tanach, junior Sue Carey, and sophomore Alison Fay. With so little previous experience it appeared to other teams that a year of revenge was in order against the traditionally strong Weliesley teams. With the help of Coach DeVincinzi, they were molded into yet another great team. They ended the regular season play with a 13-5 record; third in the Bay State League, and good enough to qualify for states. During this time, sophomore Alison Fay was leading scorer in the Bay State League with 301 total points. The team was seeded twelfth out of thirteen in the states. They first met up with fifth ranked Barnstable. The Wellesley girls dominated the entire game ending with a 51-42 score. Wellesley was once again following tradition as they pushed beyond their pre-season potential. The next game looked as though it could be a heart- breaker as they were meeting up with Needham for a third confrontation. The first two meetings had ended in defeat for the Wellesley squad. The game started with all the high-pitched tension of any game with arch-rival Needham. The Wellesely team was behind in the opening min¬ utes, but through the consistently strong play of Lee Cattanach and co-captain Alison Pruyne and the shooting of Laurie Gregg, came from behind, took the lead, and never lost it. The final game was against Silver Lake Regional, who appeared unstoppable after gaining a fourteen point lead in the first quarter. The Wellesley girls could not erase this early deficit. Things look bright for next year’s team, as there were only three seniors graduating.

They wrestled to an undefeated season of 16-0 and first place in the Bay State League for the second year in a row. The Raiders took a third place in the Division I Central Sectional Tournament while four of the wrestlers placed in the finals, and two in the consolation finals. Mike Murphy, Kurt Felix, and Mike Thorn wrestled tough matches and came up with second place titles. Sophomore heavyweight Bruno Perdoni walked away with a first place and the Most Valuable Wrestler award after defeating the defending champ in the finals. Ed Reinhard, Bob Montalto, and Kirk Miklavic captured fourth places. Andy Gulovsen, Jeff Knott, and John Quinn each took a fifth place, while Chuck Doherty came up with a sixth place win. Seven wrestlers and three alternates went to the State Competition in Springfield. Bob Mon¬ talto, in 157 lb. weight class, captured a third place while John Quinn and Mike Thorn each came won fifth place. The undefeated Junior Varsity team contains much potential, and their talent along with those of seven returning varsity wrestlers, all under the excellent coaching of Paul Donovan, indicates another promising season ahead for the Raiders.

The team had plenty of talent, but didn’t have the depth needed to win. Wellesley had only about twenty competitors, while other teams showed up with sixty to seventy competitors. The twenty competitors Wellesley did possess were hard workers right to the end. Wellesley showed strong performances in the two mile run, with Bill Bolles consistently taking first place. Co-Captain Shawn Whalen also had a good season consisting of many strong runs in the two mile and one mile races. Underclassmen Peter Foley and John Williams, worked hard all year and ran personal bests in the mile and two mile competition, respectively. Other hard working individuals were Meg Randall, Amy Hurley, and Missy Cleveland. The highlight of Wellesley’s Indoor Track Team came from the performances of Dave Anderson and Co-Captain Paul Murray. Dave Anderson, Wellesley’s fifty yard dash man, ran well all year in Bay State League competition and also captured fourth place in the State Class B final. Pual Murray also achieved an excellent record. During the season, he broke the Bay State League record in both the 600 yard run and 1000 yard run. He also broke the high school record in the indoor mile. At the end of the season, Paul also won the State Class B 1000 yard championship. Next year ' s team, with the return of their fine coach Neil Coleman should be able to look forward to a winning season and vast improvement in their record.

The Raid¬ ers maintained a .500 or above percentage throughout the season, ending with a 7-6-4 record. Led by captains Jon Glass and Dick Duddy, Wellesley was recognized as the most spirited, hustling and underated team in Bay State League. The suce ss was due to greatly improved coaching by Coach Heller, Coach Haskins and Richie Howard, along with a feeling of togeth¬ erness and a positive attitude displayed both on and off the ice. There were many high points during the season but the greatest was the 4-0 shutout against Framingham South, who hadn ' t lost to Wellesley in over 10 years. The Raiders stun¬ ned the Flyers with strong defensive coverage and astounding goaltending by T. J. Palmer. Wellesley tied South in their second confrontation when the Flyers managed to squeeze one by T.J. with only 1:57 left in thegame. Thefinal scorewas 2-2. Another high point of the season was tying the defending Bay State League champions, and State Finalists Needham 2-2. A positive attitude has been generating during the past couple years on Wellesley’s squad. This year’s success makes only the beginning of a very successful era in Wellesley hockey. Next year’s goal is a birth into the playoffs. Top Photo: Front row left to right: Greg Elms, Jim Heskett, Craig Smith, Co-Captain Dick Duddy, Co-Captain Jon Glass, Gene McAuliffe, Bill Kapinos, T.

(David Twyman) Despite a great deal of talent and potential, the girls gymnastics team suffered a disappointing season. Inju¬ ries plagued the team throughout the winter. The major blow to Wellesley’s team was the loss of co-captain Dottie Nicolo, who suffered a broken arm. Co-captain Karen Cahill, and sophomore sensation Ellen Quinn showed grace and strength performing all-around on vaulting, floor exercise, bars, and beam. The other sen¬ iors Cathy Ludlum and Janet Piro added style competing as second and first year team members respectively. Cathy competed on floor, beam and bars; while Janet per¬ formed on floor and vaulting. The team was rounded out by next year’s co-captains Tracy MacDonald and Susi Idzal, and sophomores Sue Bailey and Cathy Conner. The girls should by looking for¬ ward to a successful season next year. The boy’s gymnastics team also had a disappointing season. Junior all-around Dave Twyman and junior Doug Bergstrom missed most of the season with injuries. Cap¬ tain Kirk Pfister, who had competed on varsity for three years, again showed strength and determination. Senior Ron Burns and juniors Paul Andrew and Peter Sterns com¬ peted as third and second year varsity members respec¬ tively. The team was rounded out by first-year varsity members, junior Bill Frazier, and sophomores Sean Finn, Jeff Sanger, and Charlie Huang. OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP LEFT: How do you get off this thing?

The team made it to the Eastern Massachusetts Quarterfinal round of the South Division before bowing out to a powerful Framingham South team and ending up second place in the Bay State League and a 16-6 overall record. Much credit goes to second year head coach Jim Sullivan and his fine assistant Bob Hart, for molding the ball club into one of the best teams in Wellesley’s history. One of the team’s main reasons for success was that everyone on the team worked as one unit. Each person knew what his role was and worked hard to fulfill that role. The team was led by the two Bay State League All-Star picks, junior Mark Green and Co-Captain Kevin Roach. When you combine the great scoring of Mark Green along with the slick ball-handling of Kevin Roach and then add the rugged rebounding of John Willis, the defensive prowess of Steve Brown, the outside shooting of Co-Captain Mike Tavis, and the all-around play of subs Peter Sheehan, Mark Tucker, Bill Hayes, Dave Mackie, Scott Wheelock, and Bob Dunlap, then you have the makings of one fine basketball team. Overall, it was a great season for the Wellesley High Red Raider basketball team. With the varsity bringing back five returning lettermen next year and the jun¬ ior varsity compiling a 17-3 record and first place in the Bay State League, it looks like a promising season ahead for Jim Sullivan’s hoopsters of Wellesley.

Guided by the flam- buoyant Mr. Charles Burgess, the boys had two matches per week, with one practice in between. Senior Ed McHugh impressed all spectators with his strokes, while Charlie Cathcart showed off his remarkable putting ability. Sophomore Sandy Sutherland was perhaps the team’s most consistent per¬ former, and Jim King added his brilliance to the fairways. Doug Keefe, Keith Greenfeild, and Steve Sexony rounded out this year’s squad, supporting the team with excellent scores throughout the year. li vS laf 1 j f J.yjf lUfi £ Front left to right: Doug Keefe, Keith Greenfield, Eddie McHugh (captain), Charlie Cathcart, Peter Mackie.

Both girls were on offense and both helped the Wellesley cause by scoring many goals. The team completed its season with a rather dismal record that certainly wasn’t an accurate indication of Wellesley’s overall good playing. The outcome of the first two games of the season provided team spirit and confidence as the scores were 18-3 and 20-2, with Wellesley far out playing the opposing team. The stick work of offensive players Amy Boyd, Susie Sluyter, Susie Kimball, Liz Grover, and Mary Nickerson was a strong point in the girls’ game. And the defense, Beth Courville, Beth O’Hara, Sarah Fortune, Jamie Maerder, and Lauren Griffiths kept the scoring of other teams to a minimal. Unfortunately, the defense and offense couldn’t seem to connect; therefore, the offense was limited to its shots on goal. Next year’s players are looking forward to a better season next year, but everyone definitely enjoyed this season. 1 a i U ' ilWMI . 1 1 £ 1 Si 1 1 i - I - —T W Back row: Amy Boyd, Stephanie Fernald, Jamie Maerder, Linda Berkman, Beth Courville, Beth O’Hara, Katie Dunn, Jenny Greeley, Coach Burns.

New Coach Neil Coleman directed the team, but a lack of depth in all events left a poor showing overall. Although the team did not perform as well as they had hoped, individual per¬ formers turned in excellent times in several events. Peter Morris, a junior who spent the majority of the season on crutches, finished fourth in the class B tourney in the pole vault. Bill Bolles had a consistently good season, with a fantas¬ tic 9:52 in the two mile. Senior Paul Mur¬ ray broke the school record in the 880 with a time of 1:56.4. Other members of the team including Shawn Whalen, Ed Mitchell, and Peter Foley ran well throughout the year. The field events were strong this year with Eric Kehoe and Jack Wrobleski in the high jump, and Bill Hayes and Howard Samuels in the discus, and Alex Strzetelski in the javelin.

The Wellesley High School Red Raider Baseball Team had a rough season this year, finish¬ ing with a 6-12 record. Coach George Kerivan, Sr. had a difficult time organizing and develop¬ ing the talent that the team possessed. One stellar performer was sophomore Dave Paltrineri, who was selected as a Bay State League All-Star at the end of the year. Pitchers Scott Wheel- ock and Dick Duddy turned in several good games each, but lacked control in a few also. Sen¬ iors Jim McPhee and Mark Lederhos in the outfield played consistently good defense, while providing the best offensive performances at the plate. Underclassmen Mark Tucker, Mike Thorn, and Jon Wiles played well in the field, with John McDermott pitching well in relief.

The team was under the leadership of coach Donald LaBourne and tri cap¬ tains Amy Hurley, Dottie Nicolo, and Karen Cahill. Tri-captain Amy Hurley distin¬ guished herself as the backbone of Wellesley’s team by consistently fin¬ ishing first in the 220 and 100 yard dashes. Amy also broke records in the 100 and long jump. Record holder Missy Cleveland and tri-captain Dottie Nicolo gained valuable points in the 880 as did milers Alison Pruyne, Dawn Greene and Alison Eld and hur¬ dlers Karen Johnson, Meg Randall and Susie Noble. Two-milers Ann Capabianco, Jennifer Claire and record-breaker Janice Cleveland per¬ formed exceptionally well while Beth Carrillo, Martha Sullivan and Wendy McGrane placed consistently in the 440. The unsung heroes of the Red Raider team were the field event peo¬ ple. Captains Amy Hurley and Karen Cahill, and sophomore Beth Carrillo consistently swept the long jump, while record breaker Meg Randall and Beth Carrillo placed first and second in the high jump. Record holders Tracy McDonald in the discus and Janet Cranshaw in the javelin rounded out an exceptionally well talented girl’s track team. Next year’s team looks promising as it will be tri-cap- tamed by Meg Randall, Missy Cleve¬ land, and Tracy McDonald.

Mr. Goddard attributed the team ' s success to strong power in the singles along with experienced depth in the doubles. Mike Bodden went 16-1 during the season. Mike, ranked fifth in the 16 and under and eighth in the 18 and under age groups, won the prestigious Eastern Mass, title for singles, and he was run¬ ner-up in the State Championship. Sec¬ ond singles was held by senior Tri-cap¬ tain Lance Tucker, who ended with a 16- 2 record overall. Lance had many key wins during the season, and was respon¬ sible for victories over Framingham and Needham. Third singles was played by either the quick sophomore Warren Avery or junior Bjorn von Rosenvinge. First doubles, led by senior tri-captains Dwight Garland and Mike Tavis, com¬ piled a 39-1 record over three years. Sec¬ ond doubles was comprised of Bruce von Rosenvinge and Ted Simonides.

Under the leadership of Coach Devinsenzi and co-captains Laurie Gregg and Janie Keefe, the team gave it a supreme effort. Laurie took over the pitching position leaving her previous third base position vacant. This position was filled by sophomore Eileen Neville. Janie continued to play a superb short¬ stop while adding a little relief pitching on the side. Alison Thorn kept up her consistently fine play at first base. A first year senior member of the team, Karen Brody, showed superb skill coming in at second base. With the likes of veteran outfielder Heidi Manchester and all-stars Laurie Gregg and Janie Keefe it was hoped the team could have faired better.

The answer is simple — involving themselves in one or more of the numerous clubs offered at our school. Imagine yourself hiking in New Hampshire, singing in Boston, or living in South America. Involved students in every grade experienced these activities and more by being a member of such organizations as the Outing Club, the Glee Club, and the American Field Service. Many of the clubs offered activities to benefit the entire school. Sub Day, Plaid Day, and weekly film features were among the many contributions of the clubs and organizations at Wellesley High School. 138 OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP LEFT: Alison Coleman involved herself with her music.

They discussed many topics, the high school accreditation question having top prior¬ ity. Peter Gherardi and Mr. Ellis look on. B % Liz Grover checks out the situation. REGIONAL STUDENT ADVISORY The Regional Student Advisory Committee is an organization unique to Massachusetts. The regional student councils advise the State Board of Education and the Department of Education about their educational needs and concerns. Delegate Sandy Augustin and Alternate Karla Goldman worked on bills that were submitted to the State Legislature such as gym excuses for the Varsity and Junior Varsity team members. LEFT: Karla Goodman and Sandy Augustin are the Wellesley High representa tives to the Regional Student Advisory Committee. 140 It was a busy and eventful year for the Student Government. Under the direction of officers Linda Paltrinery, Deirdre Sisk, and Lydia Mason, the group organized many activities. In September, the Student Govern¬ ment began to plan for the Student Caucus held in November. For the remainder of the year, the group was busy implementing the articles passed during the Student Caucus. During Thanksgiving, the Student Govern¬ ment sponsored the OXFAM — World Hunger Fast. Many students partici¬ pated in this international event by fasting or donating money. Deidre Sisk — Co-President of the Student Gov¬ ernment and member of Student Advisory Board. STUDENT GOVERNMENT STUDENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE Every Spring, five students are elected to serve on the Student Advisory Board to the Wellesley School Committee. Seniors Curt Felix and Deirdre Sisk, junior Rob¬ ert Quinan, sophomore Peter Mackie and freshman Paula Ay I - ward represent the student body at School Committee meetings. This year, the issue of the high school accreditation is one of the topics of concern to the School Committee. Mr. Connors Curt Felix, Rob Quinan, Peter Mackie, members of the Student Advisory Committee. clubs organizations 14 Isbeha Martinez, Nona Melo, Rosita Mendoza, students from Venezuela, performed at Wellesley High School. FOREIGN LANGUAGE CLUBS The Foreign Language clubs served as a source for extra-curricular activities to help students broaden their knowledge of the language they have been studying. The Junior Classical League, under the direction of Mr. Paul Esposito and club presi¬ dent Maureen Kelly, had bi-monthly meetings to discuss and learn more about Greek and Roman cultures. Activities included Christmas caroling at a senior citizens home, and the annual volleyball game against the other foreign language clubs. The Spanish Club, under the leadership of Mr. Paul Brown, and Club President Yvonne Ciardiello, began the school year by hosting ten Venezuelan students for three weeks during the month of November. Spanish parties and a trip to Boston concluded the successful exchange. Several American students from Wellesley spent three weeks in Venezuela in March. Other activities included a visit to the Museum of Fine Arts and a Spanish weekend at Cape Cod in May. Le Cercle Francaise with advisor Karen Morris traveled to Quebec in October where they toured Quebec City and visited a French Canadian High School. A French dinner prepared by the members and a visit to Martinique finished a successful year. The clubs had a total membership of over forty students. Perhaps in the future, more students will become actively involved and take advantage of this learning experience. 142 “I’m the Rhinestone Cowboy” (Pablo Calderon, Edurado Moros) foreign language clubs 143 1978 Wellesleyan Producing a high school yearbook involves much time, effort and patience. Late night meetings as well as all night meetings were held before each deadline. In addition to meetings, editors spent hours creating new and different titles, captions, and lay¬ outs. Perhaps the hardest part was remaining sane through each deadline. Each staff member can recall such problems as unfin¬ ished articles, wrong or no pictures, missing members, and bro¬ ken typewriters. As each problem was tackled, each staff member learned something more about one word — responsibility. Copy and Index Editors: Cindi Miller, Sharon Campion, Deidre Sisk, and Lisa Mur¬ dock.

Perhaps one of the most exciting adventures was organized by Mr. Ray Scannell Jr. His class along with Mr. Kerivan Jr., joined together for a week of seminars ending with an enjoyable overnight. m Mr. Kerivan takes his pet butterfly for a walk. “With a little help from my friends.” Mr. Kerivan faces the firing squad.

Under the leadership of President Brian Broderick, Key Clubbing in Wellesley regained its long lost respect and prestige. Wellesley seniors will never forget those tasty hotdogs . . though neither will the emergency room at New- ton-Wellesley Hospital. Or how about that now historical Ed Sullivan concert in the cafeteria 7 The Key Club Bulletin Board was always good for a couple of laughs — Mr. Vasaturo was always trying to censor it, but could rarely figure out how to unlock it. To top off the year. Key Clubbers attended the always solemn and dignified Key Club Convention. There they learned many new things, none of which can be men¬ tioned here. The Club also received the first place award in the New England Dis¬ trict of Key Clubs for all around improvement in Key Clubbing. One notable absence this year was the lack of visits to Dana Hall. Brian Broderick and Tom McGrath receive award for outstanding service. Key Club’s Finest outing club key club 147 Students Really Get Involved!

The 1 977-78 Film Society ran such classics as True Grit and Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid. Young Frankenstein was the most popular film and it was even shown twice because of its popularity. Advisor Jack Rutledge and staff offered a low admission price of $1.00 — a rare bargain. Many students enjoyed these weekly features for only a share of their allowances.

WRSB 88.3 FM produces over sixty hours of music and school news weekly.

Members were chosen for their exceptional scholarship, leadership, serv¬ ice, and character. President Kim Davies, Vice-president Karla Goldman, secretary Alison Pruyne, and treasurer Carolyn Elliott coordinated the activities of the society. As in the past, the NHS tutored students all over Wellesley. The members served as ush¬ ers at various activities such as graduation. President Kim Davies welcomed new members. Front row: J.

Advisor: Jack Rutledge The Bradford, Wellesley High’s popular bi¬ monthly newspaper, completed yet another suc¬ cessful year in the field of journalism by receiving the first place award from the B.U. School of Pub¬ lic Communications. In addition to this regional award, it received first place from the Columbia University School of Journalism. Supervised by Jack Rutledge, the Bradford allowed over sixty students the opportunity to express their opinions while reporting on social and current events. Winding up their year as co-editors, Gordon Kingsley and Stuart Sproule proved that two minds are better than one. As a result. The Brad¬ ford proved to be an important part of both stu¬ dent and faculty life. 154 Co-Editor Gordon Kingsley Something for Everyone ' s Palette A Mirrow Reflection: Sue Carey. Under the leadership of co-editors Lydia Mason and Dorie Keilt, the Fine Arts Magazine staff produced an outstanding issue. Advisors Joan Lanza and Mirian Stoddard assisted the staff in choosing the best poetic and artistic work in the school. In addition to the magazine, the staff designed and sold tee-shirts to the student body.

Ever thought of becoming the next Barbara Streisand 7 Or the next Frank Sinatra 7 The opportunity presents itself every weekday when the various music clubs get together for rehearsal. Under the talented leadership of Don Sullivan, students with vocal and musical ability enrich their lives while enter¬ taining others by performing yearly concerts and recitals. This year, several of the music clubs participated in an exchange in Ontario, Canada. All who took part in this yearly activity agreed it was one of the most rewarding experiences of the entire year. Becoming a member of a music group at Wellesley Senior High School is like making a home away from home. “We’ve only just begun to sing. (Mr. Sullivan conducts the Mixed Ensemble) On Stage.

Rehearsals during lunch periods filled the corridors with lively tunes, serving as entertainment to those strolling in the halls. Wellesley will miss the special talents of Mike “Bongo Vanderley and David Bates. Not only did they present several special assemblies and concerts, but provided musi¬ cal background for the variety show and Grad¬ uation, a part of school life none of us could do without. “A Bird ' s eye view.” (Mr. Davis leading The orchestra) “We really work hard, even in rehearsals.

Music 159 HALF-TIME PERFORMERS Does lively, well performed music add to the excitement of a football game played on an autumn afternoon? According to some 50 Wellesley High School musicians, the answer is yes. In spite of freezing temperatures and rain, the March¬ ing Band, under the direction of Robert Davis and Drum Major David Bates, played their hearts out at games and ral¬ lies “Drumming” up support for the entire school. The Senior Squaws, Flag Unit and Color Guard also con¬ tinued to contribute to the enjoyment and enthusiasm of the spectators with their well-coordinated routines during the half-time ceremonies. Each half-time was enjoyable due to the all-around excel¬ lent display of the half-time performers. Band Sergeants: Standing: P. Cox, D. Bates. Bottom row: M. Vanderley, D. Burzillo, R.

Under the leadership of President Liz Grover, Vice-President Nancy E. Miller, Treasurer Sharon Smith, and Secretary Sue Stiles, the class held the first Senior Prom ever to be located in the Quincy Market Place, under the Great Dome. Senior Skip Day singlehandedly boosted the third quarter earnings of the Miller Brewing Company by 230%. The infamous “Wellesley Four, a neoterrorist Senior group, demonstrated the use of machine squirt guns, while water balloon day was a splashing success. Traditional Senior events such as Club ’78 taught everyone how to get to third base, and the All Night Party showed parents and faculty the effects of sleep¬ lessness on the Seniors. Academically, the class of ’78 persued primarily secondary education, with a large number interested in travel, work, and other fields. The Senior Class had the largest number of National Merit Scholars in recent years, while in addition the National Honor Society had a severe case of Senioritis, and was outperformed academically by the Key Club. Overall, Seniors have dis¬ tinguished themselves thisyear in many fields. 162 CHEESE!

If their boundless spirit and energy are any indication of future achievement, these two classes will probably have a profound influence on Wellesley Senior High in later years. Led by President Beth Carillo, Vice-President Sheila Fagan, Secre¬ tary Tricia Dolph and Treasurer Cheri Brand, the sophomore class proved their money making initiative through activities such as a car wash, bake sale, two ski trips, and a Carnation Day. Their aim during the next two years is to achieve, if possible, a greater degree of class spirit. The junior class, under the leadership of President Peter Gherardi, Vice-president Peter Sheehan, Treasurer Sandy Augustine and Sec¬ retary Ellen Moynihan (who subsequently moved and was replaced by Carrie Larocca), also presented an unlimited supply of ideas for class projects and spirit activities. Listed among their accomplish¬ ments for the year were a car wash, the Thanksgiving Raffle, Carna¬ tion and rose day, a spring dance and a class trip. Although the Class of ' 78 seem to feel that it would be virtually impossible for any class to follow in their footsteps, it appears that they will encounter some very tough competition from the Classes of ' 79 and ' 80. 202 OPPOSITE PAGE: UPPER LEFT: Lloyd “Masked Marvel” Henley MIDDLE LEFT: Junior Class Officers.

The most notable event being the trend setting prom at the Great Dome at Faneuil Hall. No other high school had ever held a prom at that location. Therefore, the publicity even reached the pages of the Boston Globe and the Boston Herald American with stunning photos of the stylish dress that was much in evidence that night. Everyone was incredibly excited when the news of our guest speaker at graduation was announced 1 Jane Curtin of “Saturday Night Live.” She delighted the seniors with her unorthodox address which was sprinkled with many anecdotes of her younger years in Wellesley. Although these two events were perhaps the most unusual in the long oist of senior activities, no one could overlook the memories of countless other enjoyable times we shared together. For example: The Cotillion, Club ' 78. banquet, halloween day, skip day, the all night party, and the numerous daily activities planned for the ' Merry Month of May.” With all the memories of twelve years together, the seniors completed another revolution in the unending cycle of traditions. 212 Susie Peirson Jodi Goldberg, Karla Goldman and Linda Fosberg “Pomp and Circumstance” Ellen O ' Conner ■ Bill Cranshaw and John Riley.

After graduation, the seniors gathered until dawn for the last time in the cafeteria, mezzanine and gym of Wellesley High for an evening of dancing, entertainment, card playing, and pinball machines. The parents’ committee had approached numerous businesses for contributions and, as a result, approximately two thousand dollars of prizes were given away during the night. Everyone had plenty to eat: hot dogs, hamburgers, coke, donuts, etc. were freely available for anyone who was the least bit hungry. Although security was very tight in the parking lot and at all entrances, everyone had a great time. Graduate Smiles: Susie Peirson, Debbie Porter, and Sue Tur geon.

The Class of ’78 said goodbye to Wellesley High with an exciting evening under the Great Dome at the Fanuiel Hall Marketplace. For the first time ever, the senior class broke the tradition of a prom at a nearby country club. They went into Boston to celebrate with elegant dinners at some of the city’s most famous restaurants: then they arrived shortly after nine p.m. at Fanuiel Hall Marketplace to dance till midnight under the Great Dome to the music of the Graham Cole Band.

Nearly all 450 members of the class (along with six tables of parents and teachers) gathered at the Marriott Hotel in Newton for a last reunion prior to graduation. The four class officers presented a program that included: presents to Mrs. Plati (in her last year as Senior Class Advisor), Mr. Connors and Mr. Vasaturo: thanks to their parents; a reading of a few messages in the will; and, finally, a moving “Memories of the Year” in a slide sound show produced by Lisa Watts, a talented photographer.

The class was recognized by the school and the adminis¬ tration, who congratulated the graduates through the persons of Mr. John Lloyd, Dr. Gordon Bruno, and Mr. Timothy Connors. Liz Grover, Class President, expressed her public and personal grati¬ tude to her classmates, teachers, and especially her parents. The prestigious Senior Cups were awarded to Bill Haves and Liz Gro¬ ver. The highlight of the ceremony was the speech delivered by the guest speaker, Jane Curtin.

The charisma and camaraderie that the students have brought forth and demonstrated to their parents, the faculty, and most importantly, to themselves have left lasting impressions. These impressions, the memories we now have, will never be forgotten. We dedicate this yearbook first to these people who have themselves created the memories, those students of Wellesley High School that in the future shall look at these pages and remember the experiences that shaped our lives. We also dedicate this book to Mr. Timothy Connors, whose unique personality affected us all and brought the Senior class closer than ever before. We also would like to thank Mrs. Steeves, who after 23 years and four principals, has finally graduated with the class of ’78. We dedicate it to the entire faculty, especially to Mr. Gerald Murphy and Mr. Wayne Hadlock whose energy and ability to understand sets them apart. Similarly, Mr. Ray Scanned, Jr., set a new tone in student teacher relationships. Whether teaching in the classroom or counseling after school, he proved himself to be an exceptional person. An important part of the 1978 Senior year were the Senior class offi¬ cers. Liz, Nancy, Sharon, and Sue put in a determined effort which allowed every class event to run smoothly and without flaw. Also, Mrs. Susan Plati, who ended this year as class advisor, can now be seen as the basketball coach of the Joshua Bombers. Mrs. Plati deserves much credit, and those that know her realize her genuine warmth. Probably the most important group that should be recognized is the 1978 Wellesleyan Staff. They learned how late night deadlines were more than a fantasy, and the dedication of certain members of the staff far outweighed the lapses in responsibility of others. To the editors: Sarah, Nancy, Alison, Martha, Karen, Susie, Kevin, Cindy, Lisa, Bar¬ bara, Nancy E., Lee, Carolyn, Kim, and Paul — a special thank you. To the rest of the staff, thanks again. Lastly, we would like to thank Mrs. Janice Barrett. Her contributions have been overwhelming, however, that is not what we shall remember most. Mrs. Barrett is a warm, genuine, and wonderful friend. She is a person whose personal strength is tremendous, and it was because of her character and her efforts that we completed the 1 978 Wellesleyan. To finish, we must say goodbye. This yearbook has meant a great deal to us, and we hope the memories of the Class of ’78 will remain strong through this book. Lauren Griffiths Bill Hayes As usual, Mr. Connors is friendly with everybody. CLfcSLtY tNIORf Clubs p. I 38 Seniors p. I 62 T raditions p. 212
