Both Burke and Morgan agreed that it is impossible: virncrnnt in SUlLaj If a person were to walk down every hall in the school, he would undoubtedly come to the conclu- sion, at the end of his walk, that a very distinct learning experience is offered in each part ofthe school. ln one wing, where students learn such practical skills as cooking, child care and auto mechanics, he would smell freshly baked pies, hear the happy voices of young children and the hum of a recently repaired engine. Proceeding on his tour, he might be greeted by students practicing their lines or by a crew hammering away on the set in time with the Russian Sailors' Dance. Further down the hall, he might detect the aroma of melting wax or baking clay. In passing the library, an eternal drone of voices would reach his ears only to be drowned, as he walked on, by the thumping of a basketball or the nm in sg if J .ff i xk lnside the classrooms, the variety of student expressions are as numerous as student interests. Often, looks of boredom, dreaminess, interest and reflection can be detected in a single class- room where there is a wide range of students with varied interests. More often than not these ex- pressions change as the student enters a class more to his liking or as the interested student finds himself in a seemingly irrelevant class. Curious about which classes or subjects the average WHS student finds relevant or irrelevant, the yearbook staff polled two classes in each of v Ui' 125 1? nn-wap 6 I H 1-.J x, fin. f .br MS -...X Ns... .wif mv gf x '.L.j,.':.l? eg GW, .

The majority of the teachers polled expressed a wide range of interests and did indeed prove quite active. Coach- ing, as everyone knows, is a popular after- school activity among the teachers. As for those who do not coach, many listed sports as a favorite hobby. Skiing, swimming and tennis were mentioned most often. In addition, many teachers noted that they were going to night school or were teaching classes sponsored by E.V.E. Other activities included winemaking, antique collecting, acting and politics. By far, the two most popular hobbies were gardening and needlepoint. Mr. Ernest Harrington, who listed garden- ing as a hobby, also wrote of his interest in wood carving. The cow is one of his crea- tions. The sculpture is by Mr. Alan Chalk, who not only writes in his spare time, but sculpts, teaches a night course at Staples and is an amateur photographer as well. Another teacher who devotes time to photography is Mr. Peter Concilio. Mr. Concilio experi- ments with various photographic effects, seen here is a self-portrait. Also pictured here is Mrs. Dianne Cothran assisting in an E.V.E. cooking class. Mrs. Cothran has taken gourmet cooking classes in Westport and in New York City at the Culinary Institute. Per- haps the most unusual activity was listed by Mrs. Nancy Harabosky, whose husband races cars. Mrs. Harabosky often works as his pitcrew! 9 1 w 1 1 I I i i F s an r 4 I e I' 1 1 1' r - STUDE T LIFE For the people of Weston and neighboring towns, the ice storm was a microcosm of the present national energy crisis. Energy not only had to be conserved in homes and stores, but also in the school, where classroom temperatures were lowered con- siderably. There had always been complaints at Weston High of cold rooms and ra- diators blowing chilled air, but when the State Board of Education instructed that thermostats were to be locked at 68 degrees, there was little to be done, coats and heavy sweaters were donned to take the edge off. Everyone knows that cold keeps the mind alert, the senses acute, it heightens the learning process. But that was diffi- cult for students to accept as they sat shivering in Chemistry or huddling with friends on a semi-heating radiator. With these perplexing and previously unknown problems unveiling themselves in a less than friendly manner, Weston students, like, perhaps, the rest of the American people, needed to talk, to wrangle a bit of sense out of their confused society. De- bates over political espionage in American government, Middle East foreign policy, and energy conservation leaked their way again and again into the less worldly chat- ter of daily school life. As students flipped through magazines in the library, shuffled cards, arm-wrestled, ate lunch in the cafeterias, or sprawled out on the grass of the courtyards, conversation drifted from basketball games to Math classes to last night's TV show. But while friends and teachers gathered in any one of several social centers established throughout the building, few could avoid mentioning the two hour lines for gas. For the senior class especially, these national affairs were difficult to ignore, as plans for colleges and careers were formulated and inquiring glances cast towards the society of which they would be an active part. During class discussions or casual con- versation, teachers often offered more opinions and insights into the problems, pro- viding students with new ground for contemplation. The 1973-74 school year saw the world endeavoring to cope with many diverse problems. Weston students felt mounting tension as talk of Watergate invaded class- rooms. For many, political awareness became as important as academic subjects, and question upon question concerning complex political issues was asked. While the government struggled within itself, students and townspeople were subjected to their own struggle. During a late December ice storm, many people lost heat and water for nearly a week, and most people were without light for at least several hours. School was cancelled, and many residents took refuge at the Middle School as ice- encased branches snapped power lines. Normally an unexpected vacation is wel- comed by students, but for those who were not used to living without electrical com- forts, it was an experience in primitive hardship. Perhaps the ordeal was an education in community living. From mutual hardship stemmed a need for people to come to- gether and help one another. 1 l 1973-74 A Year of Crises B lo T acy Moore feels the effects of the Energy Crisis as he Ike e y ne else, finds wearing a coat necessary in cold la o s R ghtr The inopportune severity of the winter of 1973 1974 d d p de I de t th thef st o fght alya .H ea buhedRck Ma ella gh the o melts from herface. wav LATE CITY EDITION M 1 Q wmi-ref: sunny. mild today, tonight Sunny und mild zomnrmw A1 N 5 a Temp range: today 47-sag smrday Thais Fit to Print '7 l sz-ee.

Perhaps this versatility is what draws so many students, over one half of the student body, to the Weston High School Music Department this year. There are many areas of music study offered at Weston. The marching band and the orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Robert Estes, in addition to the ninth and tenth grade choirs, the junior-Senior choir, the Chamber Singers, and the A Cappella choir led by Mr. Robert Regan, give the Weston student a variety of means through which he can explore music. The High School dance band offers further opportunities for the learning in- strumental improvisation. Music Theory and Appreciation courses give students the basics of music composition, encour- aging them to explore their talents even further through original creations. But Weston High School students' mus- ical involvements do not end at school. Many talented instrumentalists compose and arrange pieces, form their own en- sembles outside of school, or perform in all-state or regional groups. They, in par- ticular, have begun to explore more widely the versatile world of music. Something for Everyone Below: Trumpets, played by Mark Siegel, lon Luskin, and Stewart Brown KL.

By Grace Halsey As all who have been involved with Company at one time or another have discovered, there is more to theatre than merely acting. There are props to be found, bought and rented and scenery to be planned, constructed and painted. Posters must be printed, tickets must be sold and competent people must see that costumes are made and fitted properly. Make-up crews spend many days after school practicing on one another to perfect techniques and to insure that smile lines and crows feet will be placed accurately. When opening night arrives and the actors feel the tense excitement it brings, they are not alone. Con- struction people dash from one end of the set to the other making last minute checks, prop people make absolutely sure that umbrellas, sunglasses and lighters are on the prop table, the stage manager and his crew quietly rehearse scenery changes with each other. When the house lights go up and applause echoes through the auditorium, the cast takes its bows and acknowledges appreciation. Backstage, the crews begin to clean, straighten and prepare for the next show. The products of their labor have been seen and admired, yet they remain faceless names on a program. Company's fall production this year was Peter Schaffer's Black Comedyff After Alice in Wonder- land which was presented last spring and hosted a cast of nearly forty, the tiny cast of eight was a con- siderable change. Quantity, however, does not deter- mine quality. The young actors, some of whom had never been on the stage before presented three very good performances and displayed an excellent un- derstanding of the intricate satire. Black Comedy was director Antoinette Wrubel's last production, before leaving W.H.S. After four years of dedicated service and so many fine productions, it was only fit- ting that her last one be as polished and entertaining, in keeping with the tradition she established.

By jenny Wagner When the New England Accreditation Association evaluated Weston High School last year, one of their major criticisms was the absence of a student newspa- per. With the encouragement of the faculty and Board of Education, a group of interested students, advised by faculty member Nancy Harabosky, banded together becoming the staff of Weston High's new publication, Prism. Carrying out its function as a formal tbecause it's printedl and in depth communication of ideas and events that affects the Weston High School communi- ty, Prism prints both factual and editorial articles, stories, cartoons, and news. We want to give people Above: Kim Wallant was not only the creator of such features as the Trivia Contest, but also the artist of many excellent cartoons. Right: Co-editor Debi Luskin was one of the origina- tors ofthe paper, Rebirth of a Student Paper Prism Reflects Student Body a chance to write, draw, and work for the paper, and other students, the faculty and the administration a chance to see what we can do. Like all new publications, Prism faced some grow- ing pains, this can only be expected. It does represent a successful student newspaper so far. But like so many now-defunct student publications of past years, Prism once again fights the invincible lack of student support. As sales decrease with each publication, the senior editors become somewhat doubtful as to whether the paper will continue in future years. They hope, however, that the staff of underclassmen will not only keep it going, but improve it besides.

This year, howev- er, the staff headed by Adele Dorison and Kim Wallant, along with faculty advisor Mrs. Hand, has decided that perhaps last year's unsuccessful sales were due partial- ly to a need for a different type of maga- zine. Like last year, the staff is trying to expand the scope of the magazine from poetry and short stories, which seem to have created a very somber atmosphere, to include essays, articles, and artwork Cphotos, drawings, even comicsl as well. It is hoped that with addition of such gen- res, Inlook will become more than simply a 'literary Magazine. ln essence, Inlook is searching for a new image. Another change this year is that the staff has now organized itself into editori- al departments, each person having spe- cific responsiblilities. This re-organization is, again, an attempt to draw some interest in the magazine by breaking away from its seemingly established ways. Once again, however, Inlook struggles against that potent force which has caused the failure of so many projects - lack of student support. Indeed last year it was only through the creative writing class that the magazine survived. Ob- viously the talent exists, it is now Inlook's task to drag it out. Perhaps the staff reorg- anization and the attempt at a new image will makethetask easier. Right: Photographer Mitch Dan- nenburg finds the fisheye lense a little too useful - now it's his turn.

If it were stumbled into by accident, it would probably present an atmosphere of complete confusion: the blackboard is white with messages and reminders, the walls are covered with folders, notices, and calendars, the central table is littered with pic- tures, homework and lunch bags and often someone is diligently typing an assignment before the next pe- riod begins. Organized? Yes, in its own unique way, it is. After school, when the staff meets to work on lay- outs, revise articles, and select pictures, there is no question as to the growth and development of the book. Any air of disorder has vanished and been re- placed with a state of fabrication and construction. Each staff member works both as an individual and as a part of the whole with a specific job which must be performed in order for the book to be complete. The production is not any easy task, but the enjoyment makes it worth the extra effort. Heliotrope: Organized? Yes, in Its Own Unique Way.

Promotes Intel Twq ' w 4 by Kathy wisnieff For the first time in its history, the Weston High A.F.S. Club, as well as receiving two students, has sent two students abroad. Weston students jenny May and Alan Wochamurka left for Norway and Belgium re- spectively last summer to begin their year-long expo- sure to a different culture and life style. In return, Wes- ton received Anne Poitrineau from France and Peter Kochen from Germany, two individuals who have proved their avid interest in cultural exchange. Because of their interest and enthusiasm, the A.F.S. Club more than doubled in size this year. Through l I' national nderstanding For Two K M , N-BE such activities as a trip to Sturbridge Village, a Hallow- een party, a bake sale and a very successful car wash, the many members provided Anne and Peter with both an historic and present day view of America. Commenting on her A.F.S. experience, Anne summed up the most important goal of the club: You leave your home to live in another country where people have different standards, and you learn there is no country that has the one correct set of standards. Instead, you learn to accept people for what they are. N in '95 , 19 j Left: Anne Poitrineau has a light-hearted squabble with other members of the club.

X By Kathy Wisnieff The Latin Club of Weston High School, Agmen Primum, was formed two years ago, and presented the first annual Nox Latina as the pinnacle of its efforts. With grace and majestic beauty, an imaginary curtain rose on the successful portrayal of a Roman wedding ceremony. A year later, swords were held high as the club's Romans raised the curtain once again, this time to the entrance of Caesar Augustus, who was elevated to the position of Pontifex Maximus in proper cere- mony. Both evenings ended with the traditional Roman games: runners competing for honor and gladiators battling against death to prove their valor. This year began with the induction of many new enthusias- tic members into the societas at the club's second annual Congress. A constitution was written and adopted by the members as the guidelines for the club to follow. The presen- tation of the third annual Nox Latina in March was held as the tradition demands, with pomp and dignity that was the cus- tom ofthe Roman people.

The future of the chess club, however, rests with the underclasses. Four of the five chess team's starters are graduating this year, and so the chess club will depend on a presently non-existent interest in the game for its continuation. Perhaps the chess boards kept in room 64 will instigate student realization of the enjoyment that can be found in the game. Wirfel, playing Bob Wisnieff, contemplates next move. Both time and mind-consuming a sometimes lasts hours. Tutoring: Learning Through Teaching by Robin Farrand The main aim of the tutoring pro- gram, says faculty advisor Mary Lou Howson, is to help high school stu- dents learn about the learning experi- ence. It seems to be accomplishing this with smashing success. The tutors are, almost without exception, enthu- siastic about what they are doing. A student aid, returning for her second year adds, The beautiful thing about tutoring is, not only do I feel I'm help- ing someone who really needs me, but I know I'm getting as much out of it as the pupil. There's a lot of personal sat- isfaction involved, and the experience is fantastic. If you are planning a career in education, there's nothing like it. The high school students who teach during their free periods work directly in a teacher-classroom situation as stu- dent aides, or independently teach small groups. Offered is a choice of teaching pre-school, elementary, or middle school age children. Interest- ingly, although high school credit is offered for tutoring, the great percen- tage of students choose not to accept credit. The program has expanded and has become more organized since its in- ception three years ago. It currently includes twenty nine high school stu- dents. This year classes have been scheduled in Special Education, with seminars and programs available for children with learning disabilities or perceptual handicaps. Hopefully, the tutoring program will continue to broaden its scope to include other as- pects of education. Yvonne de Haas puts the finishing touches on her pot.

Working from this premise, the high school's Child Development course not only gives students a textbook education on children, but experience with them as well. Students spend two classes a week learning physical characteristics and de- velopment, mental growth, and child behavior. The main focus of the course, however, is its lab observations, where students, applying what they have learned in class, deal with the children them- selves, learning how to keep them busy, how to cope with their traumas and tan- trums, and as the youngsters play or work, how to make both an educational experi- ence for them. During other classes, students discuss their experiences and the children's be- havioral patterns. In discussions the stu- dents themselves become psycholo- gists and often their observations place even the theories of Dr. Spock on trial. One thing is certain, we haven't learned all there is to know about kids. And per- haps that's a good thing for us all.

Student Council just There by Sandy Dombrowski To what extent has the Council carried to comple- tion unfinished work from last year? There wasn't much unfinished work, and what there was we haven't carried to completion yet. We're working on it. The main thing that was car- ried over was what was called the brainstorm committee, which was just concerned with getting ideas for more clubs. What about the revision of the constitution and the pass-no credit plan -- or were they finished last year? They were finished last year. Well, what has the council done since September of this year that you think has bettered the school? We got the Freshmen officers elected, if you con- sider that bettering the school. We got Homecom- ing done. What part did the Student Council play in Homecoming? A. Q. A. Q. A. Q. 55? ' Im .5 I Hg if J Q Everything. Well, I mean we planned it and spon- sored it. And of course we're selling tickets at the football games. And that's about all we've done so far. We have talked to Mr. Beekhuizen once about the food, and we're responsible for getting the two types of salad dressings for lunch. About your other objectives, Kathy Wisnieff has written that one of the Council's objectives is to revise the cirriculum. Can you offer us some more specific information? Well, I looked at the course catalog, and really, it says nothing. So, I wanted to revise it, to rewrite it. I also wanted to get some new courses in. Does the Student Council have any power to re- visethe curriculum? There's no way we can enforce what we like. Ex- cept I suppose we could take over the school. I mean if we got enough students behind us . . . Ichucklel But really the Student Council is powerless to do anything but be an idea-forming committee: to come up with ideas, to crystalize them, and to pre- sent them to somebody to have them worked on. Well, what was that you mentioned earlier about clubs and activities? A. What I want to do is actively support, with funds, the clubs that are not funded by the school or other organizations. I don't know of all the clubs that there are, but any clubs that aren't funded by like the Board of Ed. or the Weston Boosters Asso- ciation we would fund because we've got loads of money. And I think that putting money into any project is goingto heighten participation. Q., Okay. Finally, I have one more question: Do you think there's much support for the Council on the part of the students or do you think it's just anoth- er organization that's there because there always has been a Student Council? A. At the moment, it's just there. I don't think the kids really care because we don't do anything that affects them . .. yet. I think that changingthe cur- riculum, or trying to change it, and rewriting the course catalog will make them wonder about what we're doing. Maybe now they'll become con- cerned.

This expansion brought a new spirit to the library that is perhaps, best captured in this hy- pothetical dialogue between two students: f'Hey, you wanna go to the Library? O.K. What for ? H To talk, what 'ya think! Where else could we go? . The Cafeteria ...H Nah, it's too crowded in there! But it's so noisy in the Library. How're we ever gonna talk?

School Store isn't a Grant or a Wool- worths, but it does offer nearly everything a student could possibly want or need to make it through a typi- cal school day.

But where'er nostalgic Weston alumni gather, surely there will be reminis- cent talk of Bert's Place . Say what you like about the cafeteria's food, it is palatable. However, the combinations students end up ingesting would make Adele Davis blanch. A typical student-devised lunch may consist of soda, cookies and potato chips. But that's not the cafe peoples fault, they smil- ingly offer redoubtable hot lunch alternatives. Per- haps, at some future date, Bert's Place will attract a clientele more conscious of good nutrition. Then Bert's food might become even more than palatable, it might become memorable.

Although the club has had problems like lack of organization, co- operation is high. However, the club has other prob- lems. Because of the gas shortage it has become im- possible to obtain a school bus to drive skiers to the slopes. In addition, the ban on selling gas on Sundays has made it impossible for the club to go to the better slopes which are farther north. The club is bearing up through all of these hardships, and plans monthly Sunday trips to close-by ski areas and one large week- end trip forthe end of the Ski season. Co-captains Susan White and Meredee Green along with help from advisor Howard Harris have managed to keep members active and the spirits high.

This year, bands from both Weston and New Milford exhibited their musical and marching abilities together with bounc- ing cheerleaders and baton twirling majorettes. A parade of class floats followed the bands. The excitement of the floats' creators, who had spent many long hours of work was momentarily shattered when a gust of wind tumbled the junior Class' Horse and Rider to the ground. Once restored to his origi- nal upright position, the Trojan horseman headed down the beaten track to his eventual first place award. Climaxing the half-time proceedings was the selec- tion of the 1973 Homecoming Queen. Following the introduction of underclass attendants, Dr. Hoeh re- vealed the students' choice for Queen, Alfa Kaenel. Yet no one could argue that julie Butler or Mary Zu- vanich would have proven equally worthy choices. Bouquets of roses were presented, applause thun- dered through the stands, and the Queen and her retinue were escorted off the field to the rhythmic sound of football players trotting forth to continue the game.

The Unit of Spectators And Team By Grace Halsey For many people, the word cheerleader con- notes a foot-stomping, hand-clapping status seeker. Undoubtedly, there are girls who try out for cheer- leading because of the prestige and recognition it brings them, however, the Weston High School squad has different reasons. The girls overflow with the desire for the Trojans to excel. On the sidelines, they try their hardest to create a meaningful rapport with the spectators. lt isn't always easy to feel spirit- ed, sometimes at away games they find themselves the team's only spectators. But never do they lose the feeling that cheerleading is a most important contri- bution to their school. Cheerleaders Establish Crowd Rapport Below: Alfa Kaenal jokes with a friend between cheers.

The Weston Trojan Soccer team once again cap- tured the WCC League Championship with an un- blemished 12-0-0 record in regular season play. With eleven starting seniors and an excellent coach, the Trojans rolled past each opponent they contended with. Weston's scoring attack led by Rick de la Parra,1im Rohman, Rick Brearton, and Todd Kriewald proved to be the best in Weston's five year soccer history. The front line flustered opposing goalies with thirty-five shots per game. Kevin O'Malley, Peter Krieger and Dave Gonzalez made up Weston's halfback line. With their fine speed and superior skills, they proved to be the nucleus of the team. lf by chance any team pene- trated through the halfbacks they were met by Wes- ton's three stubborn fullbacks, Mike Swan, jim Ever- ett, and Paul Moseley who cut down one opponent after another. The hardest job and probably the least publicized position on the field was filled by john Kitzmiller, Weston's goalie. With quick reflexes and perfect timing john stopped countless shots and had only seven goals in twelve games scored against him duringthe season. Weston's secret weapon throughout this season was Mr. Wrubel, who has led the Weston Soccerteam to two League Championships. His coaching career at Weston currently stands at thirty-nine wins, three losses and two ties in four years. Quite impressive for a man who has never played soccer. After the season ended, eight players from Weston were named to the WCC All-Star Soccer Team. lim Rohman, Rick Brearton, Mike Swan, and Kevin O'Malley were named to the first team.

I hear you guys prac- tice twice a day. This comment came from a star- tled Wilton swimmer. In its second year, the Weston Tridents Swimming team has again produced a winning record, finishing with seven wins, six losses, and one tie. This is quite good considering that most of the losses occurred at the beginning of the season. Coach Tom Hill, in his first year, has shown not only his great agility and skill in managing the team, but also his willingness to give up his vacations to come and coach us. Our most successful meet of the year was against Wilton, which boasts one of the best teams in the state. Although we lost by the very close score of 90 to 82, every mem- ber ofthe team came close to or bet- tered his best time. Wilton won the very last event, the 400 yard Freestyle Relay, with the incredible time of 3:40.'l. Our own relay swimmers broke every existing record of their own by getting a 3:46.6. Afterwards, the Wilton team said how surprised they were at our improvement. I hear you guys practice twice a day. Why sure, six days a week, and we hold prayer meetings on Sunday.

Y, -67 - l Basketball Team Breaks Team And Individual Records Chiplones Hits 1000 Points BY Brian Ritchie Despite a slow start in the '73- '74 season, the Boys' Basketball team rebounded for a final record of 8-11. Lack of experience and sufficient height repeatedly hindered the Trojans. Many team and individual rec- ords characterized this season. One of these records was set by Chip jones, who broke the 1,000 point barrier in the second to the last game against the New Milford Green Wave. During the same game the Trojans broke the school record for most points scored in one game-93. Next year's team should prove to be a good one with the return of many seasoned Varsity players along with a number of junior Varsity players. li 5 i K W ' if f Ei!! ffl i 'Q '-O ! .Q .-A 5 rg.

Champions for Third Year A Perfect Record By Carolyn Renzulli Once more the Girls' Bas- ketball team proved its su- premacy in the sport by cap- turing its 3rd consecutive W.C.C. championship with a perfect record of 16 wins and no losses. ln addition to this the girls also ranked first in the class M state tour- nament, above 29 other Connecticut teams. Making these achievements seem all the more spectacular are the team's amazing records on both offense and defense. Averaging 64.5 points per game, the proficient offense, through use of fast breaks by Caren Sipkin and Carolyn Renzulli and well executed plays, amassed a sum of 1,031 season record was 12 wins fense, with its strong re- bounding by Sukie Kindwall and Co-Captain Stacey Clau- sen, its devastating press, and almost invincible zone, allowed the opposition a mere 416 points, an average of 26 points per game. So low is this figure that the girls' leading scorer, Co- Captain Claire Beth Toma- siewicz, while averaging 28 points per game, outscored the combined point total of the opponents, 445 to 416, and brought her career total to 882, only 118 from the magic number, 1,000. With only 3 graduating seniors and a good resource of tal- ent in the l.V. team, whose season record was 12 wins and 4 losses, next year prom- ises to be just as successful since the girls are looking forward not only to a 4th championship but also to Claire Beth's1,000.

The skill in- volved is a combination of agility and balance, coordination and concentration. No amount of natural ability, however, can compensate for poor conditions. Ice patches, rocks, a sudden change of weather all contribute to the skier's greatest fear - the disastrous fall. Yet, even when all conditions are perfect, the skier must de- pend upon his equipment to a great extent. His skill in maintain- ing his equipment plays an impor- tant part in determining his ulti- mate performance. Striving for optimum perform- ance has been the object ofthe Weston Ski Team. Under the coaching of Howard Harris and james Bowditch, the team has upheld its outstanding tradition of excellence. i. in u 5 I B was 3 f if .i 5 li -.41 . ff'-' iz 2 1 4 I , vs U Above Left: On his first run in the Woodbury meet, Ned Rosen feels out the rough spots of the course.

Volleyball Team Gets New Coach, New Uniforms Emphasis On Skills And Conditioning By jennifer Wagner Probably the most significant change for the Weston Volleyball team this season was Miss Ann Marie Tomasiewicz, their new coach. Described by one team member as determined to win , Miss Tomasiewicz began her career as a high school coach with a most impressive record. However, the emphasis this year was placed not only on im- proving old skills, but also on learning new skills and new tech- niques. For this purpose the girls found themselves running laps, jumping ropes, and, unlikely as it may seem, squeezing tennis balls. These more advanced techniques which they have acquired not only added a touch of profession- alism to the team, but also played down one of the team's disadvan- tages, its utter lack of tall members. Miss Tomasiewicz also made great use of the returning 1973 who, while working with the new members as teaching aids, were given the opportunity to polish their own skills and improve the others'. The returning girls were: Devon Cunningham, Abbie Stras- sler, Mary Zuvanich, Sue White, Kristy Sigmund, and Misty Burke. With these forces working for the team, the new coach, the new technique, the stress on condi- tioning and finer skills, the knowl- edge and agility of returning play- ers, and lastly, the new uniforms, the 1974 Volleyball team had its best season so far. After clinching the Regional title, the team went on to take first place in the WCC Competitions. Furthermore, the girls made an excellent show in the state Finals, ending up fourth out of the fourty-six best teams in Connecticut. .Kat . am, ay 0- lJlIlluuuq,,,mm4M W, ...K ,WMM V5,1,ife,, -.tp ..,.

M. ,f 4'U'u. l The Ultimate in Individual Sport Man vs. Man By jon Wagner ln the world of sports, wrestling is unique: it represents perhaps the last refuge of true individual competition - man versus man. Each team member competes alone in six minutes of brutal combat, as one wrestler put it. A wrestler uses little padding and equipment. Therefore, a de- feat can be attributed to nothing but his own physical failure. Like- wise, nothing is more gratifying to a wrestler than winning a match, knowing that he alone earned his victory. in ' 1 gO , .1 H ' ff l ,affsqgg-,?g..,, ., . ,, Q Y , N . sm . . , .iss-.:, f .

These people are all too fa- miliar with the flash of light and the speeding blue streak that sends them running for cover or flying into awall. This year, despite the loss of six senior runners, the team has managed to renew itself and once again appears as a major leader in the W.C.C. in the W.C.C.

Imagine baseball. Imagine Baseball Right: Coach Gil Demarest urges his team on as another inning begins. Under Mr. Demarest's competent direction, the team achieved a record of 14 wins and 5 losses forthe season. Baseball is a game of prolonged intensity, the slightest lapse of concentration by an infielder can mean having a sharply hit ball carom off the end of his glove, just out of his reach. Allowing his mind to wander can cause an outfielder to misjudge a fly ball and have it drop in front of him. The least bit of day- dreaming can cause a pitcher to serve up a home run. The baseball player must keep alert, or his hours of long practice become futile. Yet the player's personal achievements not only reward his hours of practice, but also help his team as a whole, a home run or an outstanding defensive play contributes to a winning cause. Perhaps that's what sports are all about. ,,s, 5 v SQ , , -i twagfl W- if . 'sa5f5 - 1536 '. A ,, l- V- 3, ., r ,- , 5 ivy , W .-iegfmwff .,,r?if3:f3:1f,ii5?

A team must be able to work togeth- er, and this is not easy to accomplish. But the Girls' Softball team is a team, it has a rare unity which defeat cannot destroy and victory en- hances. This quality has been strengthened because Girls' Softball is the least noticed and most discrimi- nated against Cas one member put itl of Weston High School's sports. At a home game, the team not only fights the opposing team, but also struggles with the hazards of its own field - like the puddle at first base, the mound at second, the gully at third, and the pits Above: lo Henning and teamate stretch up for the ball, making the second out of ' the inning during an away game.

And it's no joy ride sliding down a baseline of gravel. However, the girls continue despite these impedi- ments. And what do they receive in return? Certainly not public acclaim, though softball games may be just as exciting and well-played as any other more popular sport. Few, if any, students watch the games: the team's audience at a typical game usually numbers from two to five spirited mothers. And despite the numerous appeals, the playing field has not yet been improved. But all these difficulties have had a unify- ing effect on the team as they fought the challenge of surrounding elements.

It's hardly the desire to win that keeps fifteen girls at long and grueling prac- tice five days a week, nobody wins all the time. Not many girls have an overwhelming desire for muscular biceps either, although many cite exercise as a reason for joining the track team. Girls who try out for track for the glory are disappointed: the far side of the track seems a long, long way from cheering friends. In a race, the drive to excel, to beat opposing team and to better her own personal record keeps the girl in front from letting up the pace. lt's the sense of vic- tory, of achievement, that keeps that same girl run- ning race after race. One team member summed it up: You pray a lot before a race, and you feel sick before and while you're running. Afterwards, when you can breathe again and maybe you have even won, that's when you feel fantastic. You can get high on running.

There are too many matches in which the good play- ers miss the simplest of shots and are beaten by their inferior players. The brilliant drop-shots, aces and upsets are too infrequent to allow for complacency. Cheerleaders do not roar encouragement from the sidelines during a tennis match, nor do crowds of fans attend at home or away matches. And since our ten- nis courts are built in a swamp, swarming gnats often make watching practices uncomfortable. The only faithful onlookers are an occasional girl friend or dis- gruntled taxpayers waiting to use a court. The rewards of tennis have never been trophies or cheering crowds.

'-25 Girls Tennis Team Brings First Season to Triumphant Close Players Promise Future Success By jennifer Wagner What kinds of players does one find on a tennis court? There are those who go out simply for the ex- ercise, or those who play for a laugh, swatting wildly at the ball, with no other desire but to somehow hit it, some go out to watch everyone else and secretly compare themselves, for better or worse, others are what are known in baseball as power hitters , who lunge into the shot, smashing the ball over the net as if enraged by it. And then there are the serious ones, the people who are paying constant attention to their swing, to where their feet are going, to the strategy of my Q K z -'ff f 1: 1 EPZ'i 1l1nQ4fA N.QYaYPf! .1Yr,fF1'l6'P1J: 1 --wr-s,,.v - 'A . .mv .- -.

The 1973 Girls' Tennis team, the second newest addition to Weston High School's sports program fthe swim teams are the most recenti brought its first offi- cial season to a triumphant close, with only one loss in its five game season. Guided by Mrs. Husseini, moth- er of one of the star team members, the tennis team willingly and zealously practiced five days a week af- ter school, withstanding the capricious spring weather. For the members of the team, tennis is not simply something done to pass the time, it is a skill which they want to develop. As one girl told us, it is more of an individual sport than a team sport, each person works separately to improve her own game. The only way this can be done is through practice and experi- ence. Each of the players knows this, and it is this real- ization that has turned the Girls' Tennis team into a strong and promising one.

Yet, as in most sports, no simple summary can convey the meaning of the game as it pertains to each individual player. Often followed only by the breeze, the golfer, sur- rounded by his own giant game board, gauges his abili- ty against the sculptured terrain and anticipates the response of the ball to its contact. Each stroke holds the possibility of success, of time between holes to let the facts sink in. Leisurely hours climaxed by intermittent moments of tense mental concentration and coordinated motion, constitute the bulk of the competitive golf experience. Through his involvement and dedication, only the golfer can fully appreciate the anxiety of a close match or the decisive weight of a critical putt. Mm... -as 4 ,W',,5,,: .

'Q ., fwf' Z-,,,.s in With the increasing shortage of gas these days, Westonites are realizing not only the convenience but the ne- cessity of saving trips into Westport. As a result, the town has discovered that nearly all its needs can be satisified at the small complex of stores at Weston Center. Peter's Market carries an unbelievably varied and complete stock of high quality foods-you can find just about anything from dried yeast to gourmet foods. The Pharmacy not only fills your prescriptions, but also supplies cosmetics, magazines, watches, and those once in a while ne- cessities-cards, wrapping paper, and report covers. For the days when the music department demands your dry- cleaned uniform or gown, the Weston Valet will have it done in a day or two. With every nook and cranny occu- pied by some different bit of paraphernalia, the Weston House of Wares carries an incredible amount of mer- chandise-the kind of things you suddenly need and wouldn't expect to find. Buying land in Weston? Tryingto sell your house? Weston-Westport Agencies provide top real estate services. SO WHY GO ALL THE WAY INTO WESTPORT WHEN WESTON'S ALREADY GOT IT? SAVE GAS!
