We are proud therefore, to present this yearbook to the entire school. At the same time, we have kept foremost in our minds the theme which motivated the structure of this yearbook - our changing school system. We have tried to show how the West Babylon of the past has been transformed into the West Babylon of the present. Examples of this modern era in which we live friendship . . . 5 I t N 1 1 S are the photographs which appear at the beginning of each section in the '61 Eagle. ln contrast to the art work on these pages, they are in- deed a new approach, and are strik- ing in that they truly show the dif- ference between the years that were and now are. work . . . X WK x West Babylon has only recently been able to rejoice in the priv- ilege of having its own high school building. Many of us re- member the closeness of the Ol' Main Building, and the double sessions at the junior high school. The reality of our own building did not become apparent until the early spring of 1960, when work- men rushed to meet a deadline. April 13, 1960 was a warm and truly vibrant day for us. The long caravan of yellow school buses initiated a feeling of complete sat- isfaction for having at last found a long sought for dream. vit Mr. William McHenry, here speaking at the dedication ceremonies at the new high school building, has the especial respect and gratitude of all for his part in the realiza- tion of a dream. Though many admire the face of our own building, only a leg- weary excursion throughout the maze of corridors can reveal the exactness of our educational fa- cilities. Yes, we have come a long way. And perhaps it would do well, at this very point, to pause and reflect upon the energies ex- pended within this community by men of good will so that its young citizens might be led, fully quali- fied, into the complexities of the world of today. To applaud each name should be our desire, however, the names to be listed would be without end. Our heart-felt thanks go out' to everyone. We simply ask that as the many pages are turned and the words digested and the photographs remembered that we never forget what has been done for us by West Babylon. Mr. Van Brunt proudly presents her di- ploma to Angela Frangipani, a member of the class of 1960, which was the first group to be graduated from the new high school building.

Beasts Sevemml Tony Milidantri may be somewhat prejudiced as he shows Arlene Walbroehl a good pictureg he and Fred Johnson furnished many of the in- formal shots for the yearbook. Arlene's job was to identify the pictures. Marfgraf A well-earned feeling of pride is shared by all those who have given their long hours of work and pa- tience in putting together a yearbook that is in sev- eral ways, the Hrst of its kind at West Babylon. This year's Eagle has a custom cover embossed from a special cut die. The design for the cover was re- produced frorn a picture presented to the school by the L. G. Balfour Company. Also a first', for 1961, the Eagle has a two-page spread of full color. As a result of a new process de- veloped by the American Yearbook Company, it is now possible to include full color in high school yearbooks, whereas previously the cost was prohibi- tive. The 1961 Eagle is truly a yearbook to be proud of. X X. fx'-TTT., K5 'hm P 5? I if ,G Vi :fi ft Editor-in-chief . . Copy editors . . . Boys sports ....

X Y Janet Litwa Elected Senior ueen Initiated last year for the purpose of raising addi- tional funds for the yearbook, the senior queen con- test was accepted so well by everyone, that it was decided to hold it again this year, not only to help publish the yearbook but also to give some lucky girl the opportunity to experience the honor of being elected queen. This year,s candidates were nominated by a commit- tee of nine students and faculty members on the basis of general appearance, service to class and school, talent, and scholarship. All of these attractive girls are well deserving of having been selected candidates and any one could have reigned with grace and dignity. Seated on the sofa in the luxurious reception room of the Huntington Town House are candidates Judy Hoernel, Janet Sheridan, Janet Litwa, and Linda Greene. ln front of the sofa are Elaine Forand and Pat Walsh. 1 i I fl ,WY dr rw, fir, ,Y ' f' U LM SEN IORS f iffif-.iff ,ff Discussing future plans for the Senior Class are oflicers John Pape, vice-presidentg Barbara Forman, treasurerg Veronica Maggio, presidentg and Susan Maleshko, re- cording secretary.

Features Canine Actor Cheaper by the Dozen is a three act play based on the real-life experi- ences of the Gilbreth children in relation to their father, who was an ef- fiency expert. Beautifully done by a rnost enthusiastic cast, the play was well-received by the audience, who found it not only humorous but touched with real- life pathos for contrast. ' The parts of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbreth were most difficult, but a really excellent bit of portraying was done by Anthony Milidantri and Arlene Calabria. They were ably supported by a fine cast. One character which rnust be mentioned had no lines, but made several very eHective entrances. This was the dog owned by the Cilbreth children - a pup that never failed to hound father, who disliked all dogs in general and this one in particular. The audience particularly enjoyed this bit of realism. 54 ,fri f .,.,,.. 5 'V P1 ,.,. , I , ,,,,,. ,,.,A r' 2416: A 1 ? v 4 4,0-',,f' f ., ' -4 5 S L l r Y ,, 4, While father Tony Milidantri seems appalled that his daughter Judy Hoernel would consider wearing Teddies, other members of the Gilbreth family - Arlene Walbroehl, Don Birch, Pete Dallara, Joe LoPiccolo, and Linda Greene -- look on with amusement.

Seniors Present First Mystery Home Sweet Homicide, the First Who- Dun-It ever produced by a West Babylon Senior Class, was a hit on all counts - performance, new outdoor set, complete with live shrubberyg and program, with its cover by Tony Ange- lora. The story concerned three youngsters whose mother was not only a mystery writer but an attractive widow as well. The children wanted to see her acquire fame - and a husband - by solving a real-life mystery. Conveniently, a murder was committed in the house next door, and the young- sters set about linding the murderer and achieved both their purposes in the process. Kid brother Don Birch's resentment of being ordered around by older sister Judy Hoernel takes on a violent form. Big sister Linda Greene's intervention will bring peace and quiet to the Carstairs home once more - for about ten minutes. Queen Janet with proud es- cort, Eric Kraft.

Seniors Play Cupid at St. V316HtiH6,S Formal Though the weather outside was stormy, there were happy goings-on inside as the third annual Sweetheart Ball was presented by the Class of '61. Adding to this warm and friendly atmosphere was the music of The Royalaires and the entertain- ment provided by The Tunisians. Climaxing the night was the crowning of the Sen- ior Queen. The suspense which had been growing for several months finally came to an end with the revelation that Janet Litwa would occupy the throne, The new queen was presented with a bou- quet of beautiful long-stemmed red roses and a sparkling crown. The other candidates also re- ceived tiaras and old fashioned bouquets of red carnations. The attractive surroundings, the friendly couples, and the lively music made the ball a memorable experience for all. Long months of wondering and waiting ended finally for six deserving senior girls with the crowning of Queen janet, here surrounded by Linda Greene, Pat Walsh, Elaine Forand, Judy Hoernel, and Janet Sheridan. Juniors, too, enjoyed dancing to the music of The Royalaires. ,y..1.a.

Contributing to the color of the production were the set and cos- tumes, created by the industrial arts, art, and home ec depart- ments.

Realizing already the needs of their senior year, the Sophs came out on top this year by sponsoring several skating parties, each one a definite suc- cess. They also held monthly cake sales and sold blue and gold class buttons throughout the year. Following up a fabulous freshman year, ,63 is well on the way to success. Mr. Raymond Kearns, advisor, and sophomore class ofiicers Geraldine Welch, secretary, Mary DeLucia, vice-president, Carol O'Bremski, treas- urer, and James Meisenheimer, president plan the agenda of the next sophomore class meeting. 69 v W Due to the crowded Student Council agenda, the freshman class - the largest in the history of West Babylon High School - has not had much of an opportunity to schedule activities. Nevertheless, it has be- come apparent that there are in the class many good workers, who contributed to the success of their cake sales and skating par- ties. The Class of '64 has a great deal of potential, and everyone will be looking for great things from them in the future.

Under the supervision of Mr. Payne and its officers - Eric Kraft, president, Michael Kane, vice-president, julie Gomez, secretary, and Jean Manzi, treasurer, Student Council this year has had an unusually busy schedule. It can proudly boast of a successful first in the history of West Babylon High School. In order to promote top school spirit for the last game of the foot- ball season, a non-league tilt with arch-rival Babylon, the Council organized a motorcade from W.B.H.S. to the Babylon field. This proved a big boost to morale and was well received by all. At Christmas time, Student Council collected money from the student body and bought gifts for a needy family. It is also engaged in raising money for the foreign student fund. During the winter season, it sponsored a Roaring Twenties Dance to raise money for an Alumni Dance, which was held during Easter vacation. It was open to past graduating classes and this year's senior class. The dance proved to be a wonderful opportunity for re- newing old friendships and making new ones. All in all, the Council has accomplished much in the line of bringing our students together in educational and social activities. One of the rnost successful events of the year was the motorcade to the Babylon football game sponsored by Student Council. Atop Dave Van Bruntls station wagon Kurt Sautter, Bob Seg- ura, Paul Rossitto, and Billy Bell provided the enthusiastic participants with some music? Mrs, Shelfo followed Dave's overloaded car with the varsity cheerleaders. . . . lumni Dance and otorcade Diane Buono put the finishing touches on the traditional Loyal supporters, even if they did have to walk. The but- Christmas tree purchased by Student Council, while Paul tons, shakers, and banners displayed were an indication of Fischer, Judy Hoernel, Bob DeSoto, Nancy Smith, and the boundless school spirit of these West Babylon students. Tina DiBartolo tried to decide how to decorate the wall. , .-.,. 1 z 4-is- J liT' 'LZ5E'3HfJflffi.f?x!fJfSk:'2IK1iZ'L-.izfzrl .f..q1z..,.-gtg i.zL- r- Q- W---1, --V --W I Frances Saia, Janet Litwa and Mr. Elms.

Eagle Echoes Takes New Format The many hours of hard work and plan- ning that went into every copy of Eagle Echoes have proved to be hours that were very profitably spent. Largely due to the efforts of Trudy Gunst, editor-in-chief, and Mr. Payne, its advisor, the students at West Babylon have found the newspaper to be an excellent review of past activities and an exciting bulletin of things to come. The new process by which it is printed, olf- set lithography, has rnade the printing of the newspaper lessexpensive, because rnost of the work is done right here at W.B.H.S. Both staff and readers are particularly grateful to Mr. Gunsalus, graphic arts in- structor, for his help. Spot-checking a Hnished page of the Ghristrnas issue of Eagle Echoes, Mr. Payne finds something amusing to show to Mr. Gunsalus, Danny Jones, and Wally Van Meter, while Trudy Gunst takes the job a little more seriously.

The Eagles combined a great deal of spirit, hustle and light to compile a fine record of 4 wins, 3 losses and l tie. Highlights: EAGLES - West Islip - Great team spirit evident as Eagles came from behind for an exciting 1-point victory. The running of Henry Zukowski and John Salvaggio sparked the team. Also a major factor in the victory, the great line-play of Len Sears. EAGLES - Patchogue - The play of the defensive line and a key pass interception by Phil Bassi, together with the great all-around play of Mike Kelly, told the story in this victory. EAGLES - Lindenhurst - The block of a Linden- hurst punt by Len Sears, setting up the tying touch- down, was the high-point of a clean, hard-fought game played under the lights in a deep fog. EAGLES - Bay Shore - Bay Shore's all-around speed proved too much for the Eagles as they suffered their first loss.

EAGLES - Amityville - Eagle comeback in second half fell short as early Amityville lead prevailed. The passing of Phil Bassi and the receiving of Jeff Fallon and Warren Kelly were outstanding. EAGLES - Gopiague - The overall speed of the Gopiague backheld proved the downfall of the Eagles. Line play of Len Sears again tremendous. EAGLES - Babylon - Great Eagle spirit evident once again, Outstanding performance from quarter- back Phil Bassi, despite a broken ankle. Only score of the game came on a pass from Bassi to Fallon and then a lateral to Henry Zukowski who sprinted 30 yards for the touchdown. f. 'Q-, , fy -K in I V , V f-f,.

Seven Soccer Ea les Make All Star Teams Entering its second year of varsity competition, the soccer team, coached by Mr. John Sciortino, began with an inspiring streak of four victories. This streak was Finally stopped by Brentwood by a score of 5 to 3, though the Eagle booters out-played and out-fought their opponents.

Basketball Eagles Score In League Competition Hindered by early season injuries, the West Babylon varsity basketball team came on strong to win 8 out of its last 10 games to Hnishsthe season with a record of 10 wins and 8 losses. In A-2 league competition the Eagles posted a won 6 lost 4 record, good enough for a third place finish and only one game away from a playoff berth. Coach Hemendinger's Varsity Eagles were paced this year by the rebounding of Len Sears and Jeff Fallon and the prolific scoring of Jeff Fallon and little Bob McFadden. As was the case this year, next yearls team will consist mostly of experienced veterans, as only three members will be lost via graduation. This will leave twelve returning lettermen to compete in what is anticipated to be a highly successful season next year. 92 Eagles In Action The other half of the Varsity Eagles' rebounding strength, Len Sears, clears the boards to start fast break. Jack O'Donnell drives under basket for backhand layup during North Babylon Game. Jeff Fallon, West Babylon's highest flying Eagle, soars for crucial rebound.

It is everyoneas hope here in West Babylon that the 1961 baseball season will be the unext year that we have talked about and hoped for so often. The fact that this yearns team will consist of every member from last year's is encouraging, and such veterans as Chuck Ohlmiller, Richie DePuy, Phil Bassi and Gerry Giesler, who are returning from their third season, should help considerably. Coach DeLucca is not letting last year's disappoint- ing record sway his prediction that this will be the yearl' for West Babylon in baseball. The team, last year, finished last in the A-2 League, in which they will compete this year with hopes of bringing a championship to West Babylon. The im- portant base hit or the big fielding play which was so often missing in the past should occur much more often this season with the experience gained by every player from last year. All in all, the Varsity Eagles will prove to be a much more potent ball club and a tough opponent for the powerful teams in Suffolk County. A az QBARpai 4: am? sri? MAB, Fwd BA Bi? FRONT ROW. W.

Nagengast, Under the guidance of Coach Robert Cary, the var- sity track team made a fine showing in 1960. Led by a crack relay team, the distance running of Len Sears and Jeff F allon, and the work of jim Weita in the discus, West Babylon became well-known in Suffolk meets and was Well-represented in both the league and county Hnals. Although many of last year's standout performers have been lost through graduation, just as many have returned in an effort to continue the fine work started last year. FRONT ROW: W. Crockett, V.

A fine job done by Kim Fernandez and also by Fred Hall in placing Well in all the meets must be labeled as the highlight for this year's team. Many of this year,s runners will return for next year's cross country team. Coach DeLucca predicts a much more rewarding season for this reason. ROW: E. Steppe, M. Bourque, R. Paltiel, E. Valeo, R.

The rousing school spirit of the stu- dent body at every football and basket- ball game is spurred on by nine cheer- leaders - varsity, jayvee, or freshmen. Each June the varsity and jayvee squads are chosen. The gym is filled with enthusiastic freshmen, sopho- mores, and juniors who must learn three cheers, then these ambitious girls are judged on jump, voice, appearance, personality, and group co-ordination. At the end of each year, different awards are given to the girls depend- ing on how long they have been cheer- ing. The first year an embroidered felt is awarded 3 the second megaphone term a pin is given 5 the third time the cheerleader receives a silver megaphone on a chain 5 and the girl who has been leading cheers for four years becomes the owner of a trophy. q,,,N,, JoAnn Connor Clockwise from top: Linda Boyn, Ginny McAteer, JoAnn Connor, Janet Litwa, Tina Di Bartolo, Joan Lavine, Diane Buono, and Kitty Rienzo. 4, Y vi . 1' Linda Wendt, Eileen Mary DeLucia.

Judy Birkett, Dalsha Morris, Peggy Armour, Ginny Mayer, Mary Pachla, Armour, and Sheridan Scores for . . Their determination and drive made West Babylon's hockey team a formidable opponent to all Challengers. This was evidenced by the scores of the intramural games, when the girls defeated Sachem 3-1 and Northport 2-1, and tied North Babylon 1-1. Janet Sheridan, the captain of the team, did a good part of the scor- ing. The girls fought even harder at the hockey playday to defeat Huntington and Northport. The last game against Copiague was close and resulted in a tie which ended the chance for the 1960 hockey banner. The team was coached exceptionally well by Mrs. Shelfo, and in many opinions was the finest team in Suffolk County. W. B. Girls Win Basketball Banner At the annual Suffolk County Girls' Athletic Association Play- day held at South Huntington, the basketball honor team won all its games and brought home West Babylon's first basketball banner. This banner is a symbol of vic- tory and is generally well-respected by all other girls' teams. lt repre- sents a season of hard work and achievement and deserves a place of honor in the W.B. gym. In beating South Huntington 25 -14, Northport 22-9, and North Babylon 15-10, two mem- bers of the team were chosen out- standing players - Janet Sheri- dan, who scored 31 points, and JoAnn Connor with 25 points. Lilka Hall, Mary Jane McCahill, Janet Sheridan, Ronnie Maggie, Leslie Feuille, JoAnn Con- nor, and Michele Bourque. When the words play your position are echoed in the girls, gym, itis fairly certain that volleyball season has begun. This year's intramural schedule was very heavy due to the fact that there were twelve teams 5 giving each team enough playing time was a difficult task. On the interscholastic level there were four teams, one for each class. The seniors, defeat of Copiague in November opened the way for a very fine season. Under the direction of Mrs. Fiorillo, the volleyball playday team made an excellent showing, losing only one of its games. Co-captains Janet Sheridan and Ronnie Maggio received awards for being the most outstanding players. Since the team was made up of several undercalssmen, West Babylon should soon be bringing home the SCGAA volleyball banner. 2 Having had a good season, the softball playdav team returned home most successful with the coveted SCGAA softball banner for 1960. Janet Sheridan, the teamfs captain, pitched tremendously, giving up only one hit in a series of three games. Janetas batting power was also felt by West Babylon's opponents, but it was teamwork that contributed most to the vic- tory. When the 1961 team is formed, it will have to work hard and long to protect West Babylon's softball championship. Certainly this team will show the skill, courage, and determination that all of the girls, teams have shown. This, along with the outstanding sports- manship and fair play evidenced by the girls, has helped to make West Babylon's teams feared and re- spected in league competition.

Wilensky Appointed Assistant Principal With the steady growth of the community and the increase in the number of enrollments for each school year, it Finally became a necessity for an aid to carry on efficiently the workings of the high school. Mr. Wilensky, former head of the English depart- ment, was chosen assistant principal. Having taught in the West Babylon system, he is an excellent choice for this important position. He has had the experience of associating with the stu- dents and members of the faculty, both old and new, thus enabl- l ing him to deal with the many problems occurring during the school year. Another well-liked and respected member of the administration is the high school principal, Mr. Van Brunt. In addition to his duties as principal, he instructs special courses for college prep- aration and is Adjunct Professor of Educational Law at Hof- stra College. He is the author of a six volume work, Eminent TAIR. .9 Domain, a recognized authoritative treatise on the subject. The major project of West Babylonls busy supervising princi- pal, Mr. Petersen, and the Board of Education this year was to introduce and gain approval for their plan to erect the new, much needed Tooker Avenue Elementary School.

Directed by its new chairman, Mr. Mangone, the science de- partment this year saw many changes. After having completed a one-year scholarship at Syracuse University, Mr. Olsen returned to Vv'est Babylon to teach a new course in advanced biology. Students are able to take this course only if they are recommended by both the science and guidance departments. The major purpose of the course is to develop laboratory techniques. Mr. Hoernel and Mr. Gange, new to West Babylon this year, are graduates of Dartmouth College and St. Johnls University respectively. Mr. Hoernel taught general science and health and Mr. Gange taught general science.

Entry 5 f R ..,. ,J 111 Language Lab Installed French student Virginia Jones re- ceives individual help in the lab from Dr. Tarrant. She and other senior language students serve as lab aids to teachers who are not me- chanically minded. Making good use of the new lan- guage lab, Mr. Elms reads in Ger- man to his students, while they re- peat what he has read. The whole process is recorded on tape, so that later they can listen to themselves and thereby improve their pronunci- ation. Members of the language 'department are Mr. Richard Elms, Dr. Patrick Tar- rant, chairman, and Mr. Frank Mulawka. Missing from the picture is Mr. Frank Figueroa. As the world becomes smaller through improved and swifter means of transportation, the need for conversing and conveying ideas is very great. The language department is therefore utilizing a new oral method of teaching foreign languages, which has re- placed the old system of teaching mainly grammar. Another completely new addition to the language department is the language lab. The lab has thirty individual booths equipped with headphones and tape recorders. By listening to the voices of native speakers and then repeating after them, students improve their pronunciation. Language instructors include: Dr. Tarrant fFrenchj, Mrs. Foley, CFrenchl, Mr. Figueroa CSpanishj, Mrs. Robinson CFrenchl, Mr. Mulawka fLatinj and Mr. Elms CGerman, Frenchj. Mr. Mul- awka, although he is not a new comer to West Babylon, is new to the language department this year. West Babylon is very proud of Dr. Tarrant, chairman of the lan- guage department. After iinishing six years of hard work, he re- ceived his doctorate degree from Columbia University this summer. ,'.- V ,f 1 -g ,.

This year the business department has grown to be one of the largest departments in West Babylon High School. It is con- veniently located all on one floor with glass partitions between each room, thus, stu- dents become adapted to working in large offices. Mr. Dailey, a newcomer to West Babylon's business department, supervises the school store and teaches classes in distributive edu- cation. Also new to the department are Miss Hische and Mrs. Obszarski. Miss Hische taught Office Practice 1, personal typing, and Introduction to Business, while Mrs. Cbszarski taught Business English, Book- keeping 1, and business law. Because college work very often requires the student to be able to type, non-business majors were enabled to take a course in personal typing for one half-year. Another new course offered this year was steno- graph, which trains steno-typists to prepare for careers as court stenographers.
