We know our class will always maintain close friendships with the people with whom we have spent 4 or more years growing up. There have been hard times but the friendships that have bonded have endured. We will always remember the good times, and the people that made those good times the best. As officers, we have tried to make this last year together special, but it was each of you who made it special for us. We ' re beginning a new phase of our lives now; whether we go on to college or begin a job, the memories of Wellesley High School and our friendships with each other will stay with us forever.

Despite tremendous injuries to its starting lineup, the corps managed a respectable 8- 5-5 record in league play this fall. But even with lingering injuries, team members came very close to qualifying for the MIAA Sectional tournament. Rival Needham tied the Raiders 1-1 on November 3, ending Wellesley ' s hopes for post-season play. Needing only one win and a tie in the last two games, Wellesley tied both, missing tournament play by one mere point. Coach Loiter predicts next year will be different for his hard-working, gusty team - a team that didn ' t give up when the going was tough.

Coach Seiger who was named Coach of the Year by the Boston Globe, was again very instrumental in the team’s outstanding record. On the whole, everything went well for the girls tennis team. The secret to Wellesley’s success was due to team unity. Outings such as go-carts, panty raids, miniature golf, McDonalds and going to the Cape; brought the team closer together. Good luck next year.

Stu¬ dents opting to enroll must follow a rigorous, comprehensive cur¬ riculum throughout their high school years in preparation for extensive testing in the senior year. The Baccalaureate diploma is recognized by top universities around the world and may even serve as an automatic acceptance. Many of these schools offer individual course credit for successful completion of IB exams. As a result, graduates of the program can enter some colleges as sophomores.

Zola Porter SHAKESPEARE DAY — April 28, 1988 BY SHAKESPEARE COMPANY Horatio (Robert Biggs) holds the dying Hamlet (Peter Wittrock) On April 28, 1988, Shakespeare Company presented Shakespeare’s drama Hamlet to Wellesley High School students. This production of the play was designed for touring to schools. It involved 6 actors playing 12 different parts. The company set the play in the Middle Ages of another time, possibly a future time. The kingdom was called Denmark, as from the original drama. The influences of philosophy, politics, morality, and religion are of a certain quality as the masculine forces of this play are in ascendence. Multiple realities of time and place were often preset onstage. As in many of Shakespeare’s tragedies, the backdrop was war. The company performed at the invitation of the English Department, supported by School Improvement funds, a CWPE grant and a Crockett fund grant. Students attended with their English classes and the community was also invited. 148 He ' s just a wild and crazy guy. (Doug Riseberg) I want ... that one!

It was to Attitash Mountain, and everyone seemed to enjoy the trip. The freshmen class had a few bake sales and sold towels to raise money for the class. Some money was used for their Semi-formal at the end of the year. The majority of the freshmen were there to enjoy it. The Freshman Stereotype: Study, Study, STUDY!!!

Meeting three deadlines, the job consists of layout and page design, pho¬ tography, and journalism and producing this 240 page book involves a great deal of organizational skill. It needs the support of many in order to be a complete coverage of the school. The yearbook, coordinated by co-editors-in-chief Norah Mogan and Greg Yaitanes, provided an excellent oppor¬ tunity to produce a lasting tangible memory of the 1988 school year at Wellesley Senior High School.

GERMAN EXCHANGE jfjBf M 1 • 11 l] 1 J 1 U1 � Ui fifl The German Exchange took place in Munich, Germany. The students visited Berlin and are allowed to see the East part of the city. Many de¬ scribed this trip as the most interesting. The trip took place during the summer months and the German students came here during the school year. 178 SPANISH EXCHANGE Hola! The Spanish Exchange took place from February 10 to March 3rd this year. Sixteen Spanish students went, and the chaperones were the Ubaldino’s. The first four days were spent traveling and seeing different cit¬ ies such as Salamanca, Segovia, and Arila. The next two and a half weeks were spent in Madrid living with fami¬ lies, and taking day trips to Toledo and El Escorial. The trip was a wonderful experience for everyone. Thanks to all who helped make it possible! Top: Mrs. Grodberg, Peter Chira, Adam Baker, Pat Kealey, David Kott, Kristen Crowley, Beth Conners, Ane Heffernan, Lisa Boveroux, Mr Ubaldino.

The club also helped the ABC house to organize a welcoming party for the French exchange students in the spring.

George Gauhn. Gregory Yaitanes Norah Mogan Unbelievable ... It ' s finally over. A senior class that has lost 60 students over the last two years has graduated. Congratulations, we wish you the best of luck. Putting together the masterpiece you’re holding in your hands, was by far no easy task. Janice Barrett’s and Ralph Bowman’s dedication and devotion to the book was instrumental in its completion. Outstanding staff members — Kris Kingery, Brittany Collier, Heather Dadourian, Keri Kotler and Leah Verrant; were all great assets when times got difficult. Thanks for all your help, and good luck to Brittany and Leah who will be next year’s editors. Editorial and Photography Advisor Janice Barrett (not shown — Financial Advisor Ralph Bowman) 240
