But most of all, the memories bring us closer. — Josh Kahn 1989 UNDER AN ANGEL The black box goes riding through the pleasant afternoon Followed by others, it carries their love Each of these crying, with tears for a friend, Whose destiny has arrived but he meets no end. They stand in a group, all united and together, In their feelings for this bird who has received another feather, He has used this advantage to fly up high, To the eternal peace found in the sky. He is content there now and he waits for his peers, Who have become hopeful to dry up and shed all of their tears, And fixed on the future of joining him there, They dedicate a lifetime in order to share, The existence he knows and enjoys with no regret, Because all of his friends and family remember him yet. His closest friends live with a view, of Adam the man with wings on his shoes, He allowed me to borrow them to boost my enthusiasm, And now I may live under an Angel named ADAM.

BOYS SOCCER The 1988 Boys’ Soccer team finished in fifth place in the Bay State League. With 17 seniors from the 1987 team lost to graduation, the Raiders faced a rebuilding task, and strong competition in their league. Although the season began poorly, losses in the first two games and only one win in the first six games, a great deal of hard work and a lot of progress resulted in a final record of 8 wins, 6 losses and 4 ties. The second half of the season saw the Raiders achieve a record of 5-2-2, highlighted by an exciting final game 1-0 win over rival Needham, ending the year on a high note. Scott Morrison and Alex Smith were voted to the Bay State League All-Star Team; and Mark Wolf, Jeff Flynn, and Chris Doorley received Honorable Mentions. With 14 returning lettermen, the Raiders Soccer team is looking forward to a return to the M.I.A.A. Tournament in 1989.

The next three years and beyond will be very exciting for Wellesley Wrestling. Assistant Coach Dave Paltrineri has built such a great training ground with his youth league program that the incoming freshmen will be very competitive for starting jobs. This is Coach Thorn’s last year at the helm of the Wellesley matmen and he stated, “It was a most satisfying season because of the personal growth and improvements of so many of the wrestlers.” Roll over.

After starting off with two wins in their first two games, the Raiders had major difficulties. An inability to put the puck in the net had them outscored 104-14 in their 18 BSC games. The season was, however, an exciting one. Led by tri-captains Mark Fallon, Matt Lucarelli, and Pete Sarmanian, the Raiders showed hustle and determination which kept most of the games close through two periods. Nine players will be lost to graduation from the 1988-89 team which brought Wellesley one step closer to respectability in the Bay State Conference.

Finishing with a 6-0 league record and an 8-2 overall record, the team compiled its best record in 10 years. The team owes many of its accomplishments to the work ethics installed in them by Coach Hunter Adams, a former WHS swimmer himself.

This year’s inexperienced team, led by senior captains Heather Dadourian and Scott Muzzy, improved tremendously throughout the season. Downhill racers Scott Muzzy, Bob McCusker, and Doug McGregor did extremely well throughout the season. McGregor was the only racer to qualify for the states. Two returning cross-country skiers who improved greatly from last season were Rob Seymour and Ed Wilkinson. Everyone worked very hard during the season and improved greatly. It looks as if the team will be very strong and successful next year in both downhill and cross¬ country. Ski Team goes!

Scott Darwin was the only senior, who played power hitter and strong side back row defense. Matt Godrick and Mark Wolf were the 2 middle hitters. With hitters like Frank Truslow and Dave Snelling, the team was able to adjust. Frank Truslow often kept the team in the game with his back row defense. Matt Godrick, in the coaches mind, was the one player who stood out the most in the game. Although the record was not too great, the returning players for next year’s team, are looking for a strong season. WEYMOUTH S. L 1-2 BRAINTREE L 0-2 BOSTON L. L 0-2 DEDHAM L 0-2 WEYMOUTH N.

Behind 1st singles Hal Lyden, 2nd singles Chris Sheehan, 3rd singles Eric Snyder (most of the year undefeated) and 1st doubles Malcolm Dunklee and captain of the team Kevin Leach, Wellesley played tough every match, until the injuries got the better of the team.

Head Barry Benson Martie Fiske Ronna Frick ENGLISH As always, the English Dept., headed by Brooks Goddard, offered an interesting course selection. The department established a firm base for writing and analytical skills. Juniors and seniors have a wide selection of course offerings, ranging from literature to mass communications in the elective program. Mrs. McCoy Janice Barrett Elaine Dixon DeLaurice Fraylick Susan Gartrell 126 FOREIGN LANGUAGE Foreign Language teachers are continuing their efforts to make language learning a more exciting experience for students. It is the second year for the new French program in which students spend more of their time learning the language by doing than by studying about, and which student materials reflect this new emphasis. With time, similar materials will be available in the beginning Spanish and German programs to facilitate the work that teachers and students are already doing. This is also the second year in Wellesley for Ms. Sylvia Malzacher, French teacher. Mr. Frank Droney has moved from the Middle School to teach Spanish at the High School. Sylvia Malzacher Juliette Avots Francis Droney Miriam Grodberg Karen Morris Marlies Steuart Peter Haggerty Dept. Head Paul Brown Paul Esposito Sylvia Malzacher Cosimo Ubaldino 127 MATHEMATICS Jim Sullivan Dept. Head Elizabeth Black Donald LaBorne Roderick Spurr Ted Tripp The Mathematics Department continues to strive towards its goals of imparting knowledge and skills to students consistent with their interests, abilities, and backgrounds. These goals can only be achieved with a highly competent and motivated faculty dedicated to the education of our young people. We are quite proud that 98% of the student body is taking math this year, even though only two years are required. We will continue to offer students sound programs in mathematics necessary for future en¬ deavors. Mr. LaBorne Mr. Horsman and Mr. Sullivan James Barr Micheal Craig Randall Horsman Andrew Levin Ronald Tiberio Gerhard Wichura 128 Phil Whitbeck Dept. Head Sue Gratten-Richardson George Kerivan Jr. Gerald Murphy Curt Stiles SOCIAL STUDIES Donald Campbell The Social Studies Department has been actively involved in a number of activities this year. Through the “Facing History and Ourselves course, contacts were made which began an exchange between W.H.S. America class and their counterparts from South Boston High. Meetings have been held at each school and in common at historic sites in Boston. The Junior Achievement program has brought leaders of business into the Exploring Social Science course to share their knowledge with stu¬ dents on a regular basis. The department introduced a new course, “the Soviet Union,” this fall. This appears to have been a particular timely move given the revolution which is occurring in the Soviet Union, the opening of the country itself, and the improved relations between the United States and the Soviet Union. Eileen Johnson Mary Lynn Mr. Whitbeck John Whittaker 129 SCIENCE The Science Department has continued to supplement an already strong program in the three major science disciplines with an increased use of technology and other problem-solving techniques in the classroom. The most notable examples this year were DNA labs in biology, computer exercises and experiments in physics, the use of Laser discs in the Introductory Lab Science course, and a variety of problem-solving and research projects in many courses. The Science Fair and the Science Olympiad Team have given hard working students an opportunity to solve interesting problems, compete on a state level, and succeed against many other talented students. Each faculty member is dedicated to remaining up-to-date on advances in science. This dedication results in both student academic success and also in increasing student awareness of the importance of science in our world. Dr. Stephen Rumsey Dept.

Head Robert Callahan ART The 1988-9 school year started on a bright note with Mr. Robert Callahan joining the high school staff, replacing the one and only, Mr. George McGoff who retired after 27 years of valued service. The great white way (three new showcases installed over the summer) helped illuminate the main hall with student exhibitions throughout the year. The new course, Art Studio, met the individual needs of each student. John Rutledge PERFORMING ARTS w Carol Devendorf Rya Lory Performing Arts are taught by three teachers, two of whom are new this year. Mrs. Carol Devendorf (director of the Drama Society) joined the staff in a new position of Choral Drama teacher. Ms. Lory continued to direct the advanced dance ensemble, the Moving Company. Mr. Robert Davis continued to be the director of instrumental ensembles. The three performing arts collaborated to mount a major musical, “The Wizard of Oz,” in December. This performance was creatively staged by Mrs. Devendorf and Ms. Lory with instrument accompaniment directed by Mr. Davis and technical direction by Mr. Jerry Lory. It was a smashing success! The entire program of studies was refreshed and updated in order to provide a balance of experiences in music, dance, and drama. Major concerts were presented in December and May. WHS again entered the Globe Drama Festival. The music department took its instrumental and choral students on tour to Washington, Williamsburg, and Busch Gardens in April after successfully raising funds for the trip. The year has been rich indeed for students of the Performing Arts. 131 PHYSICAL EDUCATION School Nurse Mrs. Albertini Mr. Mastro NURSE Gail Albertini Mrs. Poitras READING Mr. Parsons and student METCO Nazaleem Smith-Prioleau Some Metco Students have had the opportunity to be enrolled in the Babson College Tutorial Program this year. 133 Mary Carpenter Chairperson Eleanor Donahue Dee Messer Natalie Keefe Secretary LIBRARY 134 Mary Plunkett Secretary Mrs. Messer SPECIAL SERVICES Priscilla Bigwood Sec.

High School students run an education program for 3 and 4 year old children three days a week. International Foods students created an international Thanksgiving for their teachers. The Gourmet Goose student-run cafe offered a changing menu of interesting offerings throughout the year. The department also offered two occupational programs in culinary arts and child development. Miss Ritter Adrene Gorman Jean Ivers Marcia Ritter INDUSTRIAL ARTS Donald McAleer Dept. Head The Industrial Technology Department is in the transition process of moving from a traditional industrial arts program to a technology education department. This change means moving from a project oriented curriculum to a problem solving, interdisciplinary approach to education. This is a national trend. It is the intent to maintain the partnership between Lee Imported Cars and the W.H.S. Automotive Program whereby senior students may receive a full scholarship to Franklin Institute of Boston paid for by Lee Imported Cars of Wellesley. An after school industrial technology club has been started and students participating in this club used the department’s facilities to design and build projects that solve problems. They used math and science concepts to do so. Jim Cummings Eugene Varley Terry Veitch 136 BUSINESS EDUCATION Susan Copell Dept. Head Ann Hickey Kevin Shaw The Business Administration and Technology Department has as its primary objective the prep¬ aration of students for the technological age of the 1990’s. Development of skills in communications, problem solving decision making, human relations, computer literacy, career planning and an un¬ derstanding of basic economic concepts are integrated throughout the curriculum. A new course has been developed for this school year, Business Administration, which gives students a comprehensive look at the business world by assuming the business manager’s role in addressing the daily operations of inventory control, cash flow, budget analysis and human relations. The course revolves around the Junior Achievement Applied Economics program. This multimedia program is an introduction to the study of business and features the Student Company through which students actually operate their own firm. During the first half of the course, students conduct market research, raise capital through the sale of stock, produce and sell a product, and maintain company records. They work with a business consultant from the community, who visits the class once a week. The Business Department is also responsible for the School Store, which serves the entire student body. The store is opened during lunch shifts and is operated by students enrolled in the Business program. These business students make all the management decisions, including purchase, cost, and sales.

Keri Kotler Kaz Tanaka INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE Top: Naomi Priver, Kellen Glass, Cassandra Johnson, Mrs. Bourne (advisor). Bottom: Anna Rylander, Pam Kocher. The I.B. Program was directed this year by Mrs. Bourne. This program offers challenges to academically tal¬ ented students. Students who opt to enroll must follow a rigorous, com¬ prehensive curriculum throughout their high school years in preparation for extensive testing in their senior year. The I.B. Diploma is recognized by top universities around the world. It may serve as an automatic accept¬ ance to some colleges or it may be used to replace freshman year in col¬ lege. 147 ACADEMIC AWARDS 148 149 I 151 JUNIORS Where ' s Chris??

Only with their hard work and dedication were we able to complete this 240 page book. Much time and effort was put into meeting our three deadlines — we would like to thank all of the people who helped us out when we really needed them. Although creating this year¬ book brought us much frustration, it also brought us happiness and many good times.

With sixteen to thirty-two page issues appearing monthly, the Bradford was able to offer a depth and quality of material the likes of which this school has never seen. The paper purchased a scanner which not only benefitted the school (as the Bradford staff used it to layout the “Wizard of Oz” program), but also allowed the paper to utilize more photographs for publication. Through the regular publication of various Bradford ar¬ ticles in the Wellesley Townsman, the community became more readily able to un¬ derstand school-related matters from the perspective of students. Led by editors Vineel Shah and Brad Simon, the Bradford provided layout services for the newly revived arts magazine, Kaleidoscope, and other school activities. More than ten members attended an all day journalism seminar and awards ceremony. The Bradford ' s quality was noted in many nation wide newspaper contests.

The chapter was one of the three SADD Chapters in MA. that was invited to attend the National SADD Convention in Washington. SADD has found many creative ways to spread the word about the dangers of drinking and driving. For example, The Veterans Day Parade, the SADD Tee- Shirts, Project Red-Ribbon, mittens for a Bridge Over Troubled Waters, and Drug and Alcohol Awareness Week. They also spread the word through many exciting events such as the Male Fashion Show, Save-A-Sweetheart, Dunk Drunk Driving, the Girls Hockey Game and the Dating Game.

The club sold French chocolate mint candy bars which raised about $200. The club also played floor hockey against the German and Spanish clubs. In December, the club sponsored a holiday fondue party during which both fondue au chocolat and fondue au fromage were enjoyed. C’Etait bon! In May, the club attended a performance of Maliere’s the Miser at the American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge. FRENCH EXCHANGE FRENCH EXCHANGE 1989 was the sixth year that there has been an exchange between Welles¬ ley High School and Lycee J.B. Corot in Savigny-sur-Orge, France. This year six Wellesley High School students, Julia Daly, Martha Elliot, Adriana Lomuto, Becca Mandell, Laura Nash, and Mary- Cate Riley were accompanied by Mr. Peter Haggerty and his son, Eric. The group traveled through Normandy with other American students, stayed with families living in the area of Savigny- sur-Orge. Eight French students arrived in Wellesley at the end of March, and two additional Wellesley High School stu¬ dents hosted them.

Ini¬ tiation takes place early in October with the Kaffeeklatsch. These Kaffeeklatsches are meet¬ ings held at someone’s house so that new members can be initiated by the elders. Members play games in Ger¬ man and get to know each other. Later, in November, members par¬ ticipate in exciting round-robin floor hockey games against other clubs. Before Christmas vacations, mem¬ bers have a party at a member’s house and exchange gifts. We also discuss fund raising plans for the activities taking place when the Ger¬ man Exchange students arrive from Munich in the spring. This year the club held a very suc¬ cessful fund raiser raffle. Tickets for a dinner and a night at the Ritz were the prizes. The German American Partnership Program at WHS has been in existence six years. The partner school, Thomas Mann Gymnasium is located in Munich. The program is so popular that the Ger¬ man partner teacher has over fifty ap¬ plicant for only twenty spaces. The twenty Wellesley students who go on the exchange spend four weeks in Germany over summer vacation. Three weeks were spent with the part¬ ner school, living with a German family, attending school, and participating in many cultural activities. These have in¬ cluded visiting Neuschwanstein Castle, the Paulaner Brewery, Salzburg, the fa¬ mous salt mines in Berchtesgaden, a weekend mountain hike, and many oth¬ ers. The students also spend five days in Berlin. A visit to East Berlin is always included. In May and June the German stu¬ dents spend three weeks in Wellesley. They visit such sights as Newport, Plymouth, Salem, and the Freedom Trail. A pot luck dinner and square dance are always on the program, in addition to school activities.

Both Amer¬ icans and Spanish students enjoyed a full round of activities in school, in the com¬ munity and on local trips of cultural and historical interest. Activities for the three weeks include classroom discussions, vis¬ its to Plymouth Plantation, Salem, Newport, Boston, dinner at the Rotary Club, house parties where we learned Spanish dances, and many other interesting events. In February, a group of nine Wellesley High School students spent three weeks in Spain visiting their Spanish brothers and sisters and enjoying school and community life Spanish style. The participating stu¬ dents this year were Jen Civetta, Tiffany Coffey, Barnaby Donlon, Jennifer Hume, Becky Pruslin, tvan Reeves, Geo Snelling, James Walsh, and Ed Wilkinson. While in Spain we visited many Spanish cities such as Salamanca, Segovia, Avila, and Toledo. Strong bonds of friendship and internation¬ al understanding were made through this years program.

More than $5000 was raised for the National Heart Association Phone-A-Thon in a record breaking effort at the Newton Wellesley Hospital. Several visits to the Newton Wellesley Nursing Home were a particularly favorite activity of the membership. Money was also raised in the Kids Fair and a car wash for the benefit of the National Honors Society Scholarship. The NHS would like to thank President Emily Kalejs and advisor Mr. Paul Brown for the many efforts made in behalf of the National Honors Society. 185 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council took an active stand towards issues facing Wellesley High during the 1988-1989 school year. Student Council voted and made statements concerning the red Raider mascot issue and the School Committee WTA contract negotiations. Student Council sponsored the Red Cross Blood Mobile and the school-wide Mock Election. Also in November, the Student Council sponsored a Student Caucus at which articles written and presented by members of the student body were voted on and passed to become items on the agenda for the year. The Senior Project option, Morning Announcements read by students, and Library Archives were three main offerings initiated by Student Council during the school year. Student Council members also worked diligently on the Seminar Day held in March. Next year, Student Council will work at continuing the efforts made to begin both a Paper Recycling program and a Peer Leadership at the high school.

Other leagues require ten or more team members, so more student 187 participation is desired. CLOSE-UP Close Up The Close Up group had a fantastic trip to Washington D.C. Some went to the Ollie North trial, others sat in on a terrorist committee meeting about Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses. We were so close to real politics, one could almost smell the power, corruption, and intensity. Most of us went to see Barney Frank on Seminar Day since we had heard him speak one week before in D.C. Sorry all you history book buffs, but no amount of ink can teach you what we learned on Close Up! Jennie Owen, Brian Doyle, Pam Kocker, Rep. Joe Kennedy, David Giroux, Sara McLaren RUSSIAN EXCHANGE In April, the first social studies exchange between the Soviet Union and Wellesley began when ten students, their teacher, and interpreter landed in Moscow for five days of sightseeing. At the end of that time, everyone boarded an overnight train for Len¬ ingrad, where the actual exchange with school 185, and English intensive school, began. Students lived in the homes of their Soviet hosts and attended classes in the morning six days a week for the two weeks of the exchange. Trips to nearby towns, pal¬ aces, and museums filled the afternoons, and theatre, ballet, opera, the circus, and free time occupied students in the evenings. The ten students: David Collard, Anton Janik, Jill Kateman, Sara Korn, Matt Parsons, Alison Purinton, Erik Sanner, Robyn Smith, Kathryn Ward, and Anne Whitman, along with their Soviet Union class teacher, Mr. Whitbeck, were impressed by the warmth of their reception, the overwhelming hospitality and generosity dis¬ played by the Soviet people as they stood in a seemingly endless number of lines waiting to buy the few goods available. Everyone looks forward to the visit of the Soviets to Wellesley in November and the anticipated establishment of an annual exchange with our newly made friends at school 185.

In my family, I had a 13 year old sister, Andrea, and two little brothers. I went to school on the days that there were no bomb scares or teacher strikes. Most of the time I would eat, play pool, and party, especially on the weekends when we would go out from 1 AM to 6 AM. I had a blast and I’d love to go back. — Anne Beaven (Argentina) Anne and her host sister. Picture Not Available Julie Bresnick (Australia) I spent this past summer living with a Japanese family in a suburb of Tokyo, Japan. The first month of my stay I com¬ muted into Tokyo daily to my language school where I studies Japanese. The second month I vacationed in the moun¬ tains and went to summer camp near Mt. Fuji, among other things. I met wonderful people and experienced many new and exciting things. Japan is super — I hope to return sometime in the near future! — Britt Collier (Japan) I went to Japan for 10 weeks last summer. I lived with a Japanese fam¬ ily outside of Tokyo. I was fortunate enough to have a sister the same age and a ten year old brother in my fam¬ ily. I was enrolled in the language pro¬ gram and attended school for 4 weeks to study Japanese. My expe¬ rience in Japan will be one I will never forget. I have good memories and friends that I will always feel close to. — Kim Donohue (Japan) Britt and her host parents Kim and her host sister. I spent 9 weeks on the homestay program with a wonderful family in Songkhla, an important city in the southern part of the country. I attend¬ ed a school of 5,000 students from grades 7-12, where I was the only Caucasian. The people were friendly and accepting. The food was exotic and extremely spicy, but delicious, and despite not knowing a word of Thai upon my arrival, I had a won¬ derful time and learned an enormous amount. — Lindsley Hand (Thailand) Jen in Germany. During my AFS stay I lived in Germany for 8 weeks. Half of the time I was with my family and the other half I was in a lan¬ guage program. This was the best and the most rewarding experience I have ever had. I learned a totally new way of life while meeting new people who have become my second family. I had the best time and I encourage anyone to do it. Jen Hicinbothem (Germany) Lindsley in her school uniform. I lived in Liberia, West Africa, for 2 months last summer. Big families are the best! There were ten children in my host family, and all of them African — friendly and so eager to show me their country. Africa is amazing — I’m moving back next chance I get! — Emily Kalejs (Liberia) I spent my summer in a town called Moide on the West Coast of Norway. I stayed with the Thomas- gards, a family consisting of parents and two teenage brothers. I went hik¬ ing in the Alps, sailing, fishing, and swimming in the Fjords, and ate plen¬ ty of fish, homemade bread, cheese, and chocolate! — Margy Langfold (Norway) Emily and her host family. Margy and her host grandma. 190 American Field Service is an organization which sends Americans to foreign countries for either the summer or for a full year. Last year we sent 15 people to countries such as Australia, Finland, and Liberia. In addition to sending Americans abroad we also host foreign students. This year the Wellesley AFS chapter hosted Mareika from Germany and Hiroki from Japan (year students). This summer students will be going to countries such as Germany, Finland, and Australia. My summer in Italy was awesome! One of the places that I visited was Pompeii. Pompeii was really incred¬ ible — there were so many things to see! What really caught my attention were the petrified people. (See pic¬ ture). — Liliana Lopez (Italy) During my AFS experience I stayed in Izmir, Agvalik Kugadasii, and Iztanibal (in Turkey). Here, in this picture, I am with 2 of my friends GokhCn and Elif in Agvalik, Turkey. — Omayra Marrero (Turkey) Omayra and friends. I spent the summer of ' 88 in Van, a small village in northern Malaysia. My AFS father was a fisherman and my mother was a teacher at school. Most of the time I was in school trying to learn Malay and helping teach English, saya tidak lupa Malaysia dan saya bolen chakap bahasa Melayu. — Jay Negro (Malaysia) I I went to Finland for the summer. I lived on a farm for a month and then in a city quite like Wellesley. In my second family I had an 18 year old brother, a three year old sister and two parents who were both teachers. I had a great time with my school family and hope to go back some time in the future. — Jen Olsen (Finland) Jay at school. Jen and her host sister Matt wearing his Tunisian costume. I spent my AFS summer in Tu¬ nisia, North Africa. Staying with a Muslim host family, I was given the unique opportunity to learn French and Arabic from my siblings, Khaled, Karim, and Alya. Carthage, Muslim rituals, night-clubs, and wind-surfing were also a part of my fabulous ex¬ perience. L’hamadullah! — Matthew Parsons (Tunisia) Cammie and her host sister. My Turkish mother, father, 21 year old brother and 13 year old sister lived in Eskisehir, Turkey and owned a summer house at Datca on the Mediterranean Sea. I observed ancient ruins, mosques, Moslem religious festivals, village life and traditional Turkish dancers. I also saw historic spots in Izmar, Ephesis, and Is¬ tanbul. Neither my mother nor my father spoke English, while my brother and sis¬ ter had a limited vocabulary. Being able to communicate in French with my father, I learned enough Turkish to converse with my mother and friends. For eight weeks I never saw a single cloud, and came home looking like a native Turk. — Cammie Preston (Turkey ’89) Last summer I went to Italy. These are some of the people I met al ong the way (see picture). I spent five weeks in Milan and three weeks in San Ginignano learn¬ ing to speak Italian. — Julie Preston (Italy) Bob Waugh spent his summer in New Zealand. He lived with a host family for 6 weeks at the beginning of his stay. During this time he attended a private boys school. His next 3V2 weeks were spent on the outdoor program on South Island.

Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don ' t hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don’t take things that aren’t yours. Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before eating. Flush. Warm cookies and milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in plastic cup. The roots go down and the plants goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup — they all die. So do we. And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all; LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and sane living. Think of what a better world it would be if we all — the whole world — had cookies and milk about 3 o’clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other nations to always put things back where we found them and cleaned up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together. by Robert Flughum Seattle, Washington Kansas City Times 218 Thomas Sneed and Mike Pinckney Smile the food’s great!

DAVIS 579 WASHINGTON STREET, WELLESLEY 239 Britt Collier and Leah Verrant WHAT IS SUCCESS? To laugh often and love much; To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children. To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends To appreciate beauty. To find the best in others. To give of one’s self without the slightest thought of return. To have accomplished a task, whether by a healthy child, a rescued soul, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition. To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exaltation. To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. — Anonymous We would like to wish the class of 1989 and all of our friends happiness and success in their future endeavors. Special thanks and good luck to Ms. Barrett who has not only been our advisor but our good friend as well. We couldn’t have done it without her! Thank you to all of our outstanding staff members. We are confident that Michelle Gobiel and Kim Welburn, co-editors of the 1990 Wellesleyan, will do an excellent job next year. 240 - ' ' f v . • c V v -•V k ' %• ♦ • U- , V , -.i SA_ _ ' w ' vr.rV V - 5? • •. v A. . . v ■ •« T ' vt Ak � . a i i v v V K vV - ' % -■ ■-. , ' s . . 5 v 1 V ’ • C r% „ - 1 j H i ' ■ ' j ' A •■ . v k -■� 3R‘ ;• r; w ‘ i? „•,:A • - aU 3 4 W K ' - s.. ..?
