It is with inexpressible appreciation that we dedicate the 1969 Lion’s Roar to: MR. JOHN F. GAUMOND “... and student alike ...” 4 ib 6 Lion’s Roar Staff EDITORS AND CHAIRMEN Kneeling: C. Salter, G.

Our Emperor, Tim Maki, reigned with the noble assistance of Bruce Rankins, Cathy Stiles, Judi Snow, Chris Wilson and Heather Graham. Our Roman orgy, a freshman dance, was made a success by a band from school, the Abstracts. Roman gladiators from our empire excelled in games of Soccer, Basketball, Tennis, Golf, Baseball, Field Hockey and Softball. Cheering on our gallant men of the court quite vocally were Jim Larrabee, Don Smith, and Wayne Holmes. Our Arts were not neglected; Brad Rice, Kris Bertelsen, Sally Shubert and Ben Hagopian added to our cultural lives while Donna Rousseau, Tim French, Dick O’Neil, and Deb Laurin soared to new musical heights. Our chorus would not have been the same without Carol Wyman, Marlene Smith, Karen Vail, Judy Shusta and Sheila Kyes. Our burning lamps of knowledge, Adrienne Butler and Mark Mooradian had been lit, to lead us through the dark years to come. Strangers who came to our empire and stayed are, Robert Noyes and Mark Fratantonio. We ride off into the dust in our chariot, entering the darkest years of our high school career — the Medieval Year — the Dark Age: Our sophomore year. Our great empire diminishes to a feudal castle. During the Sepavich Dynasty, Robert the Spirited ruled and was supported by his aides Kit Salter, Cathy Stiles, and Sharron Atchue. Our envoys to the Student Counsel in the capital were Sue Simon and Heather Graham. Our sporting men who shone on the soccer field were Jeff Siam, Gary Orciani and Stephen Sher- wood. The Royal Knights of the (basketball) court, did admirably in battle with other teams, with Ed Connor and Bob Brustlin leading Eld LaVigne, John Dylewcz, Dick O’Neil, Ronald Bohlin and Dick Butler to victory. Our baseball players Ed Connor, Ed LaVigne, and Ed Parzyck as well as our golfers Mike DeLiddo and Tom Forsberg also earned merit for our tiny castle. Emerging from feudal darkness, we entered our golden age of culture, the Rennaissance: Junior year. Our glorious monarch, Chris Salter, reigned triumphantly surrounded by his perennial but beauti- ful court: Cathie Stiles, Sharron Atchue, Deb Condon, Sue Simon and Heather Graham. During the year, members of the kingdom contributed to the flourishing of culture, by assisting the Fall Frolics and Spring Concert. Physical Strength and Agility were demonstrated by those on athletic teams. To add to the wealth of the treasure-house, members of the palace guard and many loyal subjects sold zip code books and candy at royal basketball games. Climaxing the year was the royal ball, “Follow the Yellow Brick Road,” which was the highlight of the social season. Queen Cathy Judd and her Court, Linda Johnson, Mary Jane Mulryan, Marlene White, and Judy Allen were fitting representatives of royal beauty. At this point we are found in the new-born kingdom of our Senior year. The king, Kit Salter sat majestically looking over his faithful subjects Cathie Stiles, Vice-President, Sharron Atchue, Treasurer, Debbie Condon, Secretary, and Heather Graham and Sue Simon representing the Student Council. Royal entertainment, highlighted during the season, by the traveling Fall Frolics Association, brought a talented show reviewed by people from nearby states. The sporting events, common interest of people near and far, marked a successful and triumphant season for the Cross Country Team, lead by light-footed Mike Condon, Soccer, lead by Bob Brustlin and Tim French, and the Royal Women’s Field Hockey Team commanded by Marie Cronin and Della Leonardi. As the kingdom rose to great heights and flowered into a successful and great kingdom it filled all the hearts of the people with “The Impossible Dream” at the Holden House, November 27, 1968. 44 The Princess, Pat Howard, rose radiantly above her deserving court, Sharron Atchue, Christine Wilson, Sue Chapman, and Mary Matulis, while Prince Jimmy Cairns stood faithfully by his princess in her moment of triumph. A new discovery marked the rise of the common people. With great acting and hard work, a sub- ject of the Dramatic Acting Co., Marcia McKeogh led the audience with laughter and acclaim in the production of “Suds In Your Eyes.” Although unfortunate circumstances prevented Mark Moorad- ian from performing, Debbie Condon filled the shoes of Chinatown. With the added help of Nancy Martin and Elaine Carlson, the staff, crew, and producer, the senior play was a great success. The remaining season was dominated by the Royal Courts of Basketball, for the ladies, Duchess Jane Marsolais and Sue Chapman and the men led by Dukes Ed Connor, Ed LaVigne and Dick O’Neil, to winning seasons. Turning to look back at the castle that we have built in our memories we find the many great times that have been shared throughout the past years. Now the roads leading from the drawbridge must be travelled individually. To all — good fortune in your quest for the impossible dream.

Class Prophecy As the year 1979 rolls in, we find our guest assembled in the ballroom of the White House awaiting the arrival of the newly elected President of the United States, Steve Souza, who is throw- ing his Inaugural Ball. All eyes are fixed upon the lovely First Lady, Pat Bonci, as she gracefully descends the spiral staircase in her electric micro mini gown, fashioned by the world famous de- signer Della Leonardi. Linda Pepi, the governess, relieves the First Lady of the responsibility of her children. Photographers, Sharron Atchue and Ronnie Bohlin a re present to capture the high- lights of the evening. Reporters, Marcia McKeogh and Christine Wilson, elbow their way through the crowd to interview the first female Vice President, Heather Graham. A motorcade of various types of automobiles pulls up in front of the White House. A beach buggy, chauffer driven by Nancy Powers, “DROPS” off the governor of Rhode Island, Sheila Veshi. Randy Edilberti pulls up in Steve Recupero’s fruit truck while Michael DeLiddo, Ed Marrone, and Bill Heath hop out of the back of the truck armed with over ripe fruit to chuck at the Speaker of the House, John Bello. Jane Marsolais arrives in her flashy, flowered Austin, and Lynne Meanor rushes out with a shoe horn to assist John Dylewicz from the tiny car. Debby “Mustang Sally” Truel- son, Jo-Ann Camarra and Mark “Mustang” Fratantonio step out of their car assisted by Jean Goral, their body guard, armed with a snub nose 38. Sue Sears, Lisa Gustafson and Elaine Carlson pedal their bicycles onto the East Lawn. In hot pursuit of the cyclists, Jane-o Backstrom and Norman Ar- senault bring up the rear of the motorcade in the “Hot Chevy 6.” Inside, the band known as the Kinks, led by Steve Eicholz, Brad Rice, and Chris Salter, tunes up while Ben Hagopian turns on his psychedelic light show. The action begins with Dennis Eagan and Joan Rymaszewska capturing the attention of the people by jogging across the floor doing the “Tango”. Edward LaVigne and Debi Laurin are so engrossed in learning the 1 — 2 — 3 — ’s a good number — cha cha cha that they nonchalantly bump into Edward Connor and Chris Surabian, who are very concerned with the events that are to take place. Off in a corner, we see Bev Senior illustrat- ing the “Funky” to Charlie Karsok. Threading their way through the crowd, the Butlers, Adrienne and Dick, are serving Paula Geier’s version of the Shirley Temple. Carol Wyman nudging her way through the crowd of arms and legs serves hors d’oeuvres, concocted by Carolyn Morse and Maureen Marchisio. Suddenly the electrical power goes off, and the frantic crowd is consoled by the deafening words 48 “Cool it” shouted by Tom Forsberg, which in turn are echoed by Pam Fernsten and Donna Bonci. Master electricians, Richard Hoaglund, Ronald Lind, and Bob Newell rush off to repair the short circuit. Janet sprints to the rescue with her bay — “Berry” candles, and in the darkness stumbles over Claire Hopgood who is demonstrating her latest skiing techniques to Bob Brustlin. Fire fight- ers, Jim Larrabee, Jeff Siam, Jerry Orne, and Linda Ernst armed with her trusty “Shovel”, answers to the frantic cry of “FIRE!” issued by Wayne Holmes. The fire is soon extinguished, the electrical power is restored, and everyone resumes celebrating, except Kathy Messier, who is lost in the haze. As the bash gets back into swing, Karen Vail, Sharon McCabe and Nancy Martin request that the band play “Born to be Wild” for the surviving members of the class. Because of the deafening music, no one but Jimmy Cairns, whose curfew is 11 p.m., hears the clock strike midnight. After his desper- ate search for a ride home, Jim Ham offers to drive him in Gary Luksha’s “Guido — Mobile.” Due to the excessive crowd, the party moves outside to the swimming pool area, which is kept up to par by Gail Leonard and Sandy Brunelle. Marie Cronin, Sue Chapman and Linda Despres decide to put t n a swimming and diving exhibition. Ken Rogers and Brian Lowell, while picking apples high in the tree, fall directly into the White House pool. Senior life savers Fran Triola and Mike Scales, hearing their plea for help, dive to their rescue. Dr. Sheila Kyes, assisted by nurse Wendy Hohne, bring a fresh supply of oxygen to the survivors. A loud roar, lead by Jane Ricci erupts from the boisterous crowd. Police officers Bob Sepavich, Sue Harding and Billy Mulchay arrive after being recognized by peace-loving citizens, Tom Nickerson and Fred Folly. After being recognized as fellow members of the class of ’69 they are asked by the First Lady’s secretary Judy Shusta, to remain to enjoy the festivi- ties. Coming through the swamp, the White House gardener Dwight Marsh, sees Janet, “high there” Trainor, picking tulips with Sally Shubert and Linda Savage, who are wondering how the tulips grew so incredibly high. Everyone rushes back into the ballroom to hear Mike Condon read his list of the gaa— rooviest dressers. Number one on his list is Kris Bertelson who wore the hairiest dress. Marlene Smith takes second in her majorette skirt. Third on his list is Donna Rousseau dressed in her giraffe skin mini dress with beads. Mary Caola in her psychedelicly painted dress takes fourth place. After he finishes reading his very exasperating list in the corner of the room we see Timmy French and Mark Moor- adian discussing a very difficult math problem. The Kinks return with guest artist Gary Orciani singing “Take me back to my Hydeout,” followed by Sue, singing “Simple Simon Says.” As we look to the far side of the ballroom we see Mary Matiilis comparing the length of her hair to that of De-De Rheaum, At the adjacent side of the room, we see Dennis Rousseau conversing about how his Chevy Impala will out do Don Smith’s gallant Valiant. David Rowell and Rocky LaComfora appear to be looking for some backyard ac- tion; and plenty they find as they see Becky McKeon and Carolyn Merritt driving Dick O’Neil’s garbage truck, heading straight for the kitchen wall. As we turn from the sight we see Judi doing a rain dance and thinking “Snow.” Coming inside is Dale “better late than never” Jewitt, followed by her shadow Nancy Potvin and a new arrival Margaret Carey. Now we turn the spotlight on Cathy Courneyer, who is reading the edition of Fashion Magazine, looking for the best page. Then as we look in the shadow of the spotlight we can almost make out two figures, oh yes it’s Robert Noyes showing ace driver Timi Maki hand shadows of a rabbit. All of a sudden the fireworks begin with a crashing, caused by Cathy Stiles, who is driving Steve Sherwood’s latest tank. Hearing this crash, the class of ’69 pile out to the back door and head for their cars. But blocking the driveway we see Bob Reynolds who’s Sunbeam is stuck under Roger Fallavollita’s Black Bomb. Seeing this, Edward Parzyck, fiercely mad, picks up the black bomb; and with a mighty heave he throws it onto the garden, ending this most momentous evening. Now the class of ’69 will wait for another 10 years and another crazy, wild class reunion, this one to be held at the home of Deb Condon or Gloria Gambaccini’s. Underclass 51 First Row: T. Fancy, G.

The collection of the class dues and the money made from selling candy at the home basketball games were also a big help to aid in financing our Junior year activities. This year’s most exciting event was the prom, which through the cooperation of the whole class was a success. Carol O’Connor, Janet Harris, Debbie Cronin, Debbie Riganati, Gretchen Klar, and Sheila Hennessey participated in Sports. For the boys there were A1 Hunt, Michael McManus, Don Sheppard, James Meola, Brad Campbell, Mike DePatsey, and Gary Metcalf. Others were active in many clubs. With this successful year behind us, we eagerly look forward to our Senior year with hopes of a similar success. Resting Again, Donnie? CLASS OFFICERS: President, Greg Roberts; V.

The officers have collected dues this year for the benefit of the class in the next three years. Freshman interest and participation in sports has been strong. Thanks to the efforts of Tom Spellman, Greg Turner, and George Berry, the Cross Country team finished with a win- ning season. Sue Haapakoski, Chris Barr, Linda Leonard, and Jean Leonardi contributed to the victorious Junior Varsity Field Hockey team. Freshman boys have formed a strong bench for the Junior Varsity Basketball team with such players as ' Tom Spellman, Steve Flynn, Kevin Marrone, John McManus, and Bill Merritt. With an active Freshman year behind us, we look forward to the next three years with anticipation.

The Webo provides comprehensive coverage of sports events, club meetings, and extra-curricular activities for the student body as a whole. The paper also carries reports on the current fashions and literary reviews of the current best sellers.

The group took part in the Spring Concert under the guidance of its officers: Jim Larrabee (President) and Pam Fernsten (Manager). The Dance Band is restricted by audition (Because of overwhelm- ing response) to the more advanced musicians. The group meets once a week to practice for its part in the Project Fair.

Miss Nancy Dye selected a graceful team of 10. Both coaches and teams worked to- gether for the season to put together one of the finest co-ed gym shows around. After entering in colorful opening cere- mony the girls and boys went through a series of team drills. Judi Snow put on a fine routine in floor exercise. Co-captains Sandy Naylor and Della Leonardi performed graceful and skill- fully executed routines on the uneven bars. Jim Larrabee demonstrated his strength on the ropes and on the peg board.

The play concerned the ideas of an Irish woman and the problems she encountered in fulfilling them. The plot unravelled with the finding of two friends and their matchmaking efforts for an unsuspecting sailor. Not enough praise can be given to the actors for the wonderful job they did. Rehearsing the play itself took about one and a half months, while providing the scenery, props, and costumes took about three weeks. Through the cooperation of the cast and production staff, an ex- cellent job of preparation was done both off-stage and on. We are all very grateful to all who made this year’s play the success that it was, and we particularly wish to thank Mr. Gaumond for his guidance and patience. WOOPS! ... 92 Peek-a-boo.

This was due partly to the loss of several previous players to the track team and still others to the injured list. Coach Ekblom noted that he expected more out of some of his players. However, he added brightly that many fine ballplayers will be returning next year, with experience to benefit the 1969 season. Safe on first ! The Mickey Mantle of WBHS. Jimmy sprints for first.

The departure of the nucleus of seniors leaves Mr. Foley with many vacancies for the 1969 season. Arnold Palmer??? 1 i i 1 117 Track Standing: Mr. O’Connor (coach), S. Carville, D. Mulryan, M. DePatsy, J. Moorefield, D. Whitney, T. Renzoni, P. Rotti, C. Bartlett. Kneeling: R. Knox, R. Wilmont, R. Bohlin, R. Shepard, D. McCool, D. O’Neil, D. Shepard, S. Leslie. The effort of all the team members enabled the last year of Mr. O’Connor’s coaching to be a success. Many school records were broken by such veterans as: John Dylewicz, Les Fisher, and Rich Shepard.

Our goal this year was to equal the fine work of the past years; we feel, however, that we have surpassed all expectations by producing for your enjoyment the finest book ever. We are proud of this book for two reasons: First, it supplies complete coverage to all school activities, organizations, and events of interest during the past year. Second, it gives extensive coverage to the Senior Class and complete coverage of the underclasses. No one person is alone responsible for the creation of a year book. As always, there are several individuals who have “carried the load.” First, and most important, due to the responsibility of the position, are our Editors, Heather Graham and Dennis Eagan. Of no lesser importance is the position that carries the burden of financing the yearbook. We were very lucky to have Pat Bonci and Bob Brustlin, as our Business Managers. They received a big boost from various members of the class, as our dealine approached. Of course, we cannot forget Mercer Studio for the fine photographic work they did. Our own Camera Club also chipped in with many excellent prints. Thanks and a tip of the hat go, as usual, to Taylor Publishing Company and their outstanding representative in this area. Mr. Bill Rowan. Behind these people is the backbone of the staff, as well as all those who sold a record number of Boosters without whom there would be no yearbook. To all those involved in making the 1969 Lion’s Roar the success that it is, we say thank you for a job well done. The entire staff can take pride in knowing that they have accomplished what seemed an impossible task — the production of one of the finest yearbooks to come from WBHS. MR. JOHN H.
