Spirit of 76
Put aside the coats and arms! The Spirit of 76 is a celebration of our people; our
own special strength, the strength we have found in diversity. We are separate
wholes, not a cohesive unit. Each of us is searching for an intangible realm where in
we can find the feeling of personal accomplishment and fulfillment.
Our theme section focuses upon individuals in our class who have shown a
desire to learn. These people have something special whether you know it or not.
They find the process of mastering their arts enjoyable, and their self-motivation is
made visible.
Personal Education Experiences
For me and many others of my age, the past four years of
our lives have been spent receiving an education. During my
high school career I have been taught theorems, irregular
verbs, battle strategies and grammer in addition to numerous
other things. Yet, in spite of all the tests I've taken, all the
term papers I've written and all of the hours I've spent in
classrooms, my most valuable educational experience has
been the learning not in school, but in my home.
Two years ago, when I was a sophmore, a change took
place in my home that altered my life and my family's lives
forever — my mother gave birth to a baby boy. My brothers,
Alan (now 15) and Jeff (age 11) and I were unquestionably
suprised when we learned of my mother's pregnancy. We
reacted selfishly at first — the idea of an addition to our
previously completed family was difficult to accept. Our lives
and schedules didn't have the time for baby-sitting, and
bottle-feeding and diaper-changing. The age difference of
nine years between even Jeff, seemed too large a gap for any
of us to overcome and become close to the child. I think the
thing that scared us most was the amount of added
responsibility we knew we would all share
As the end of the nine months drew near, my whole family
found themselves involved in preparations for the newcomer.
When Anthony Alfred was born on May 23, 1974, it was one
of the greatest things that ever happened to us. Little by little,
as "Tony" grew from a small, helpless baby to a larger, more
independent two-year old, our family bonds strengthened and
stretched to include even our youngest member.
All children are demanding and time-consuming and Tony is
no different from his peers in that respect. He is sometimes
very exasperating because his needs are constant, but I have
tried to learn to adjust my temperament so that I can live in the
same house with him and not develop ulcers or nervous
disorders. The amount of patience that a person must have
when dealing with children is astronomical, and patience is a
gift that I wasn't born with. I also have a difficult time
controlling my temper, but I believe that I have developed
more patience and self-control. Although babysitting used to
be distasteful to me, I have come to enjoy Tony's company
and am much more willing to give of myself than before his
birth. After all, the time I devote to Tony is little compared to
what I receive from him as a result.
Tony is a very special person to all of us. He has provided us
with a form of education that few people find easily
obtainable - the ability to love. I think that my brothers and I
have been especially fortunate in being able to open our
hearts and to lose some of the selfishness that lies within
everyone. Many people don't find the same opportunities
until later in their lives; others never do.
Trish Mastendino
Some people think that education begins at 7:45 A.M. and
ends at 2:00 P.M. I don't
Self-education (as it is called by the yearbook staff) doesn't
really require any effort. It sneaks up on me in the most
unlikely places. I can generally find it lurking in books.
I have no preference for any particular type of book. What I
read reflects the interests I have at the time. When I read I
tend to form a chain from one subject to another related
subject. For example, reading the Horatio Hornblower series
led me to several biographies of the Duke of Wellington (the
Mick Jagger of his time, complete with groupies), and from
there, to the Napoleonic Wars in general. A desire to discover
what was behind a factual incident in a fictional story has
pushed me into learning things I normally wouldn't have
bothered with. This quirk of mine has helped me with my
school work. I usually have an interesting and appropriate
subject already stored in mind, with the basic research
finished, when a teacher gives an assignment.
Learning something on your own is always easier then
having a teacher "make" you do it. Then when it comes
around to using that information, your experience the most
delicious feeling of having sandbagged the whole assignment

For as long as I can remember, I have always been fond of art. When I was very young I would always
ask people to draw for me. I would then take their pictures and try to do it myself. By doing this I started
learning about drawing and acquired an interest for art that I will never lose.
That was a long time ago, but today I'm still drawing. I like drawing people in particular. I have done a
lot of portraits of people I've known and drawings of places I've been.
Another form of art which I often do is scrimshaw. I have been doing it for about three years now,
after being taught by a friend. I started doing it as a hobby and ended up selling many pieces of
scrimshaw jewelry.
Although creating scrimshaw and drawing people is what I do most, I have also made items out of
cornhusks, such as husk wreathes decorated for Christmas. I've also done a little pottery and enjoy
working with clay. I would like to start sculpting with it.
Art is a very special thing to me. I like being able to put things on paper or whalestooth whenever I
want to. I think it's a very good thing to use your hands in this manner, to create something new.

Art is an important means of expression
that can be viewed collectively as minor
creations surpassed only by the original one.
Art reflects history, common life, and the
ideas of the artist.

Sewing is something that means a great deal
to me. Sewing takes a lot of time and patience
but if you like to sew it pays off in the long
run. My sewing ability enables me, along with
Pat Sullivan, to be a part of the Jordan Marsh
Creative Fashion Council. Sewing is a pleasant
way of earning and saving money, but I do not
intend to make a career of it.

Running is one of the few sports where a person is totally on
his own and can control how much and how hard to train.
Because of this, running gives better discipline and more individ-
uality. I feel a sense of freedom while running, and from this i
feel better when I do well, or worse when I do poorly.
Running has given me a chance to meet people and to do
some traveling. I have raced in Pennsylvania and Connecticut as
well as in New York and New jersey. I have also been able to
meet world class athletes and high school runners. I think there
are many more rewards to running than just winning races.

Rich's greatest interest now is in the
field of music. For nine years he has
played classical piano and has played
bass guitar for six years. His piano train-
ing has led him to compose original mu-
sic. Rich has been in a number of differ-
ent bands over the past four years. This
summer he toured several cities with one
band. Recently, Rich has become inter-
ested in electronic music and so bought a
synthesizer. Rich says that because he has
found so much enjoyment in each field
of music, his interests have moved into
many different musical fields. Richard
hopes to someday combine the teaching
of music with studio and band playing.

I have been interested in cars for a long time
now. I received my first VW when I was fourteen
and have had more than a dozen since then. The
majority were old and worn out; many of them had
no engine, so their owners gave them to me. Since
they were too far gone to fix, I took them apart. By
doing this I learned how they were put together and
why they were built the way they were. In the end I
came to appreciate the engineering that goes into
designing a car.
Presently I am driving a '58 bug, although it is
nothing to look at, I've done a lot of work on the
mechanical parts that you don't see. I have also
learned a lot by doing this. I plan to study mechani-
cal engineering and after that I will probably pursue
a career in the automotive field.

All my life I have been interested in art.
My main interests are jewelry making,
sewing, and designing clothes. I took all
the courses available at the high school
pertaining to these subjects and decided
to venture out on my own.
My home economics teacher, Mrs.
Weidman, was aware of mv interest in
:>ewing, so she contacted a woman who
was looking for someone who could sew
well. Mrs. Weidman gave her my name. I
have found this to be one of the most
exciting jobs I have ever held. I work for a
clothing designer, w ho is also a teacher at
the Rhode Island School of Design.
Sewing has always been my major in-
terest, but last year I took an enameling
course offered at school by Miss Davis. I
became very interested in enameling and
decided to pursue jewelry making. Also,
this past fall I took a course from a
woman in Marshfield who taught me a
great deal. I plan to take further courses.
After graduating from college, should
jobs be hard to find, I plan to have my
own small business selling clothes and
jewelry.

The world around us is in troubled times. The institutions of government and business are
quickly becoming obsolete and useless. These institutions must be changed so they can face
the future. Change however, does not come easily. Only through the involvement of people
in politics can needed reforms be made.
I have tried to do my part by working in several political campaigns including:
1972: George McGovern for President
1974: Ruth Rowley for Selectwoman
Gerry Studds for Congressman
1975: Constance Pye for School Committee
I have also participated in the West Virginia Democratic Youth Conference at Charleston,
West Virginia in May 1975 and the Northeast Democratic Conference at Springfield, Mas-
sachusetts in September 1975. Presently I am working for "Mo" Udall for President.
I have enjoyed what I have done and gained a lot from it. I would like to close by
reminding you that the government is "for the people and by the people."

"To me the major difference in the per-
forming arts and, say, being a painter is that a
painter does a painting, and he does a paint-
ing. That's it. He has the joy of creating it and
somebody buys it, or maybe nobody buys it
and it sits in an attic until he dies. But no one
ever said to Van Gogh: "Paint another Starry
Night again, man."
— Joni Mitchell

Pat Carroll
Patrick Carroll is a poised, accomplished individual in all
facets of his life. He is an outstanding academic student
and his number one rank in class only begins to
substantiate this. Patrick is a dedicated, hardworking
student who constantly strives for perfection, yet always
has time to help uncomprehending friends. Patrick is a
well-rounded competitor in athletics consistently
performing stronglv in three sports: cross-country,
basketball, and track. He is also the secretary of the Key
Club and a member of Bov's State.
Patrick has the strong qualities of a leader by example.
His classmates respects his opinions and achievements.
Since Pat is an o\erachie\er, everyone around him is
influenced to work that much harder. Pat possesses a fine
sense of humor and a steady, strong sense of personality.
All of the above plus Patrick's commitment to his ideals
have combined to create a model student he is today.
Robin Blackford has proved to be one of the most talented and
saluable individuals in the Senior Class. She has consistently
excelled in her academics, athletics and other school and
community activities. All these experiences have required Robin
to think at optimum level as well as to exhibit her tremendous
patience. In addition to her course load at Duxbury High. Robin
has taken advantage of the WI T. High School Studies Program.
Duxburv High School takes pride in saying that Robin was our
representative at Student Government Day last year.
\thetically, Robin has excelled in a variety of sports. She has
participated on the Varsity Field Hockey, Basketball and Softball
teams. She also enjoys mountain climbing, sailing and hopes to
take part in crew in the future. One of her most rewarding
experiences took place last summer when she attended the
Outward Bound Program at Mount Desert, Maine. This was a test
of her physical as well as mental ability.
Robin's two greatest attributes are found in her warmth of
personality and patience with all people. Much of her free time
has been devoted to participating in the Big Sister and Tutoring
Programs. Watching Robin work with these children is pure
delight. She has an uncanny ability to bring our all the wonderful
characteristics, hidden to most people.
Robin also tutors two math students in the high school.
Recently one of the students passed their first Geometry test.
Robin's happiness over her accomplishment was indescribable.
The Senior Class is proud to have Robin, a person never afraid
to give a part of herself for the benefit of others In the future
should you ever be visiting Fiji and suddenly spot a flash of
flaming red hair, do not be surprised it will be Robin in her
sailboat.

The class of 1976 dedicates its yearbook to a truely devoted
couple, A team, Harry and Helen Gunnerson. They work
together and separately and their devotion is obvious to all
who encounter them. As janitor, Harry has shared his sense of
humor with us and he has always been willing to go out of his
way to help us in whatever way he could. We appreciate his
sensitivity and the pride he has in his work. As our traffic
director, Helen shows real concern for our safety. She demon-
strates sincere firmness for which we respect her. Harry and
Helen Gunnerson are a truely amazing couple who have given
a great deal of their time to us, the students. And so, this year's
dedication goes to
Harry and Helen for
whom we are more
than grateful.

Our past four years at Duxbury High are
difficult to explain in a short space. We are all
sharing the "High School Experience" collec-
tively, yet each person's impression of these
past years is entirely different from his peers'.
Everyday one can hear complaints from seniors
either about a particular teacher or work that
must be completed. Some feel Duxbury High
has been rewarding, while others maintain that
it has merely been a necessary stepping stone
towards their future plans.
Each day we are bombarded with the "facts"
of the outside world. We read newspapers,
magazine articles, and other sources which tell
us that the economy is deep inside a black pit
and there appears to be no immediate relief in
sight. We are confronted with the perpetual
problems of what to do, and where to go from
here.
Someone once told us, in the beginning of
our Freshman year that the transition from
Middle School to High School might be a bit difficult, but that we really should start thinking about
college. We were impressionable young Freshmen. Our dreams were of that day, far in the future, our
graduation, June 1976. Now it is a reality, whether or not we find relief in graduating or fear of becoming
an adult.
\
Juniors
Seniors are everywhere. We as Juniors, are in contact with many of them in every aspect of school life.
They have shown us leadership and maturity while, at the same time, they have given us free advice and
guidance. They taught us the "ropes" of the school. There will be a void in our school life when they
leave. Juniors will feel this emptiness the most. We wish the Seniors good luck and best wishes in their
future endeavors.
Sophomores
The Sophomore Class has watched the Seniors grow and work, always with a unique sense of spirit,
which has seemed to spread through out the school in the past, and is somehow what has made the
seniors a special group of people. They have been ambitious and motivated students. They always had a
special way of organizing, while at the same time making it fun.
The Seniors were warm and understanding when it came to accepting underclassmen into the High
School. Now we are watching as they help the new Freshmen. The Sophomore Class of 1978 wishes the
graduating Seniors much success and happiness.
Freshmen
The yearbook Staff asked us what we Freshmen students thought of the Seniors. The replies were as
follows; "I think they are much more sophisticated.", "They are not as big and tough as we had
expected, thank God!" and "They are just what we expected."

Underclassmen
Underclassmen? of course! Have you ever
heard a freshman giggle? Have you ever tried to
wade through a wave of Freshmen? Freshmen
look strong. There seems to be so many of them,
but how can anybody expect unity in a freshmen
class when each member is testing and exploring
every aspect of the school? Each Freshman Class
has a genuine excitement about it, being a mem-
ber of the youngest group in a new school with
new social and academic demands.
Ever feel lost? Somewhere in the limbo land
between Freshman and junior year are the Soph-
omores, struggling onward. Sophomore year is a
wilderland before the new excitement of up-
perclassman status. There are doubts and fears
unique to sophomore year and who knows why
they exist or how to pin them down. Is it Biolo-
gy? Is it Society? A combination of both? "I'm a sopnomore ana rm tnmking.
sophomores, because junior year is BIZARRE! junior year; countdown, juniors are very special people to
seniors and many close friendships are formed over these class lines. Because of the relative security that
a junior can feel, having finally made it so far, junior year gives you a chance to really excel (if you are
so inclined). Sure there is pressure (remember the outside world) but because the reality of decision
making is a whole year off, the pressure is indirect and sometimes even feels good! Oh, the fun, the
turbulence, the excitement, the confusement, the friends, the antagonists — its all here!
P S. Got your Prom date?
Juniors
The class of 1977 have a variety of interests and talents. They are heavily involved in almost every
activity in the school, contributing to the success of the athletic teams, the music and drama programs.
As is always true of a large number of students, the junior class is divided amongst different groups, but
the Class has united to work on class projects such as homecoming activities which proves the Juniors
have school and class spirit.
Sophomores
The Greek meaning of Sophomore is "A wise fool." But if you ask any of the sophomores, you will
find we are a class with a wide variety of talents. You will also get an answer saying we are a class of
inbetweens. In between what you may ask? We are in between the freshmen, the prom going juniors
and, of course the high and mighty seniors. Nothing but a sophomore. This is a year of growing pains.
We all struggle, explore, learn and when we reach the top, it will not be all that bad.
Freshmen
The Yearbook Staff also asked us, "How does the Freshmen Class feel about themselves as a class?"
The majority replied, "I am upset with the students of the Class. We can not join together. There are too
many little cliques who do not confer with each other."

A major influence in our lives revolves around our interactioYi with the faculty,
but, how often do we think of them as individuals? Frequently we make myopic
judgements about these people from what we see in the classroom. We realize
that they enjoy singing professionally, writing, playing golf, flying, mountain
climbing, as well as bowling, to name just a few interests. The teachers have
given us an appreciation for the value of learning. They have provided us with
the basics and now it is our responsibility to carry on.

Athletics
Sports involves both the mind and the body. The athlete learns that excellence in anything is
accomplished by long hours of toilsome work, and to stay on top one must work even more
diligentlv. Throughout competition, the mind and the body function as a unit.
The greatest educational factor that sports offers is not winning or losing but the act of
participation. It may be the self-satisfaction of an individual's achievement or the thrill of working
as a team. The act of participation usually does not give a materialistic award, but it gives the desire
for perfection. In ways other than academic, people are able to make their school proud of them
through their achievement in sports. A person's personality may be developed by athletics because
the player may learn to express himself better and ma\ therefore acquire self-confidence.
Sports extends the opportunitv for friendship with new people. Through the spirit of com-
petitiveness one is able to meet people who share similar interests.
The following section is dedicated to those who have worked hard for the success of Duxbury's
sports.
Baseball 1975
Although last year's team
suffered by losing many close
games, its desire and optimism
did not surrender, and its spirit
will be even higher in 1976. The
pitching staff will be highly
experienced with their seasoned
veterans Tim Barclay, ]ohn
Peacock, Dr. |., and Peter
Sinnott. The hot hitting seniors
will be Steve Andrews, George
Arnold, Jeff Bailey, Guy Brown,
Steve Case, and Tod Desmarais.
They will make use of the many
ducks in the pond. Mr. Murphy
and his two captains, Steve
Andrews and Jeff Bailey, will
give out both hitting and
fielding tips to the youngsters.
Last year might have been a year
to forget, except for the
numerous memories, but this
year the crop is ripe and ready
for picking.
1975 Softball Team
Under the fine coaching of Pat
Shea, the bubble gum - tootsie
pop kid, the 1975 softball team
had a very successful season. Led
by co-captains Penny "Mouth"
Herrick and Cindy "Mario" Pratt,
the team finished second in the
South Shore League with a 12-4
record
For the first time, the D.H.S.
Softball team made the
Massachusetts State
Tournament. Although the girls
played valiantly, they were none
the less defeated 12-6 by King
Phillip Regional High School
Some of the girls' more
memorable moments were
beating Hull in a tight 6-5 game;
Kim and Gail McCallum making
the All-Star team; Gail
McCallum's election as Most
Valuable Player and Cindy Pratt's
4-0 no hitter As with all teams
there are humourous moments
and the softball team had many.
Some of these were: |ill
Willingham's Prom black eye,
Coach Shea's three pounds of
tootsie pops, practice at the
beach, learning to catch pop
flies with the head, and Gayle
Sander's famous base crookin'.
Last year's seniors will be
missed, but this year's team will
be experienced with ten
returning players.
1 14
Girls' Tennis
For the last three seasons the
Varsity Tennis Team has been
the League Champions under
the leadership of lane Corliss.
Last year's team will be missed
because more than four of the
top starters graduated.
This year will be coached by
Mrs. Faith Heneghan and will
hopefully be a rebuilding year.
They should do quite well and
will undoubtedly capture
another championship.
Boys' Tennis
With an 11-1 record, the boys'
tennis team was South Shore
League Champs in 75. Coach
Randall Look's last year proved
to be his most successful. After
nine consecutive years of
finishing in second place behind
Cohasset, Duxbury came out on
top finishing the season with an
unprecedented 5-0 victory over
Cohasset.
The Duxbury team is
characterized by depth and
strength in doubles. This year's
prospects are even brighter since
one two starters, Scott Rich and
Col in Dahlin have left.
"Backboard Bob" Hutchinson
will provide strength in singles
as he has done since his
freshman year Greg Sbraccia
and last year's captain, Ernie
Freeberg, will also return for
their fourth year on the team
Other seniors include Mike
Picardi and Mark Cywinski.
Golf
The 1975 Duxbury High School
golf team, coached by Bob
Hayes, came up with another
undefeated record in league play
winding up with a 10-0 overall
record. It was Duxbury's
thirteenth straight South Shore
League Championship. Duxbury
had no problems winning any of
its matches. Over the past four
years the team has compiled an
overall 73-3 record and proved
to the state finals all four years.
The team qualified for the state
tournament and finished eighth
in the state finals at Taconic
Country Club in Williamstown.

1975 DUXBURY TRACK
I
The 1975 Duxbury High Track
Team's season could be
appropriately termed "The year
of the individual performer."
Under the guidance of coaches
Reggie Clark and Bill Barges,
several Duxbury Track men
turned in outstanding
performances.
In the two mile, Craig
Bloodgood shattered all Duxbury
High distance records, while
proving one of the top two
milers in the state. Not to be
outdone, Andy Bolster was
outstanding in the discus throw,
capturing the league
championship in this event. )im
Button and Dave O'Malley in
the javelin throw and in the mile
broke school records in their
respective events.
Despite these feats the team
could manage but two wins in
eight meets. However, with such
consistant scorers as Mark Pixley,
Brian Heneghan, Pat Carroll,
Dave Creely, Paul Bloodgood
and Kent Bolster returning, the
1976 Duxbury High track season
should be interesting
The Duxbury High School girls
track team, under the coaching
of Paul Francis had a record last
year of two wins and four losses.
At the break of the season, after
a humiliating defeat by
Middleboro, the team gained
confidence and experience,
bouncing back to beat the
Cohasset team, rivaling all the
way. With the return of all but
three members, girls' track
promises to be a strong sport
here this Spring

Duxbury
Field
Hockey Team
The Duxbury High
School Field Hockey
Team, under the coaching
of Deborah Brooks and
led by Senior Tri-captains,
Phipsie Chandler, Melinda
Severson, and Lederle
Tenney, had a very suc-
cessful season. They
finished second in the
South Shore League with
a record of 12 wins and 4
loses.
The Tie Breaker and the
Flick-Off were introduced
as new rules for this year's
competition. Although
the Flick-Off is consid-
ered individualized com-
petion, the Dragon Ladies
voted to continue the
Flick-Offs next year.
For the first time in
Duxbury Field Hockey
History, the Ladies
qualified for the Eastern
Mass Tournament. They
played their best game of
the season against Fram-
ingham South and lost 1-
0.
Juniors Charlene
Woods and Liz Ham-
mond were both out-
standing players on this
year's team. Charlene was
elected most valuable
player. Both Charlene and
Liz Hammond were voted
to participate on the All-
Stars Team.
Next year's team should
be in likely contention for
first place in the South
Shore League, although
Seniors Robin Blackford,
Kathy Grealy and Connie
Wilson will be missed.
The Seniors wish the
team good luck in the fol-
lowing years.
IS
D.H.S.
Football
Team
The D.H.S. Football
team experienced one of
the most rainy and injury
ridden seasons in Dux-
bury History. The pride
and desire of the players
enabled them to hold on
to a 5,5 record, surpassed
by only one team (5,4) in
the past.
The captains this year
were Peter Barlow and
David Shirley, who
showed great leadership
ability. Unfortunatly Da-
vid was hurt early in the
season. Tod Desmaris re-
placed him. Charles Ab-
bott, Jeffrey Bailey, Mi-
chael Doherty, Bruce Lil-
lie, Kevin M. McCarthy
and brothers Christopher
and Kevin McCarthy were
seniors who contributed
greatly to the team's suc-
cessful season. Juniors
Christopher Brady and
David Greenburg and An-
drew Bolster played ex-
cellenty throughout the
year. Eric Arnold, Kent
Bolster and Michael Cocl-
ough were sophomores
who will contribute great-
ly to the team's future
success.
Coaches Pagnano, Del-
locco and Jagutz should
also be commended for
their superb coaching this
year.

Soccer
i
The Duxbury High School
Varsity Soccer Team has another
fine season under the coaching
of Foster Cass. Co-captains, Tim
Barclay and Brian McEvoy led
the team to a 16-0-0 undefeated
season clinching the South Shore
League Championship. The high
scoring seniors for the Dragons
included Brian McEvoy, George
Arnold, Steve Andrews and Sean
O'Neil. The defensive unit of
the team was led by Tim Barclay,
who scored his first varsity goal
this year. The defensive players
included Scott Brown, Mark
Landers, Robert Wesley, Peter
Locke, Andy MacDonald and
Mike Kennedy. A fine
performance by Peter Theroux in
goal helped to keep the score
against down to five. The loss of
these seniors will be felt next
year, but Duxbury's Tradition
will undoubtedly be upheld.
Cross
Country
This years Cross Country team,
under the leadership of Coach
Clark, enjoyed their best season
ever. Their 6-2 record gave them
a third place standing in the
South Shore league with their
only losses going to Hanover
and Middleboro. Senior Captain
Craig Bloodgood led the
Dragons with 7 victories in 8
tries. He was pushea constantly
by |unior jimmy Button. This was
jimmy's first year of Cross
Country and he showed the
makings of an excellant runner.
Senior, Pat Carroll and
Sophomore Paul Bloodgood
could always be counted on to
finish in the top along with
Dave Bourget and Keith Patton,
a freshman Other runners who
won places on the varsity team
were, junior Peter Sinnott and
Senior newcomer, Mark
Cywinski. Mark Pixley, also a
senior, made his presence
known as he also finished high
in the race standings
Possibly the greatest reason
for the teams success was the
leadership ot Mr. Clark who
summed up the season with
these words, "We were all
wonderful'"

BASKETBALL
The 1975-1976 Duxbury High
School varsity basketball team
reversed Its losing trend that had
developed in the sport over the
previous two years. Coached by
Foster Cass, the Duxbury team
compiled a 6-2 league record by
the half-way mark in the season.
Among these six victories were
exciting upsets by the strong
Middleboro and Hull squads.
The Duxbury team was made
up of six seniors: Mike Picardi,
Greg Wolfe, Bill Wilcox, Scott
Browne, Pat Carroll, Steve Case,
and five juniors: Chris Brady,
Manny Fernandes, Robbie
Andrews, Walter Kusins, Dave
Greenburg, and one sophomore,
Paul Bloodgood.
With a nucleus of
underclassmen returning next
year, the basketball team should
be tournament bound.
The 75-76 Girls Basketball
team was a young developing
team Under the experienced
supervision of Coach )ane Corliss
the team played with
enthusiasm and desire. The
Dragons were led by junior Gail
MacCallum and Senior high
scorer, Gale Sanders. It was a
very close team, with everyone
contributing an all out effort.
The Seniors included Deanna
Henderson and Gale Sanders
who were supported by luniors
Donna Doane, Sheree Heap,
Gail MacCallum, Donna Pullin,
and Sue Schaffer, and
Sophomores Theresa Grealy,
Nicki Noel, and Lauren Tenny.

WRESTLING
The 1975-76 wrestling season
proved to ■ be very productive.
The relatively young team,
having only four seniors, under
the leadership of Coach William
Barges and Assistant Coach Mike
Russo, amassed an impressive
12-3 record over some very stiff
competition. Led by co-captains
Bryce Blair and Tom Whalen, the
team came through with some
key wins over such teams as
Durfee, North Quincy and
Weymouth North. Although the
team will be losing four valuable
seniors, Bryce Blair, Dave Shirley,
Peter Locke and Walter
Sheehan, the team's future looks
very promising with such
strapping juniors as Tom Whalen
and Dan Kates and first year
surprise Eric Arnold.
Girls Gymnastics
The 1975 season under coach
Penny Patenaude was a year of
great improvement Beginning in
early December the girls worked
long and hard hours improving
form and trying new moves on
the four pieces; the balance
beam, uneven parallel bars,
vaulting horse, and floor
exercise. Gymnastics is a very
individual sport but you can not
achieve this unless you have a
team that will work together
through spotting and helping
others. Throughout the year, this
is what our team had and in one
way, perhaps this was our
greatest achievement.
Leading the team into twelve
meets were Capt. Phipsie
Chandler, and Co-capt. Maura
Mastrogiovanni All the girls
improved steadily, which
brought our average score up to
15 pts. over last year's average.
Unfortunately, we lost a few
girls through the year, but we
ended up the year with the girls.
Only two seniors will be leaving:
Phipsie Chandler and Suzanne
Duffy. We will still have a strong
and spirited team ready for next
season.

Hockey
The 75-76 D.H.S. varsity ice hockey
team enjoyed an exciting and
successful season Despite the loss of
eight seniors, the team apparently has
a strong record of 7-4-2 and is looking
forward to winning its three remaining
games. The season was a total team
effort wwith Duxbury being the only
squad in the league to skate three lines
consistently. The team was well
supported by students and parents
throughout the year This led to their
inspired victory over Cohasset 4-3, in
their homecoming game and a
stunning upset over the previously
undefeated and perennial league
champs, Hanover The team will miss
the service of eight more seniors led by
tri-captains Brian Heneghan, Gerry
White and Stephen Leonard. The
forwards Chris McCarthy, Tod
Desmarias and George Arnold, and the
defenseman Frank Haugh and Arthur
Donahue. Yet the future looks bright
with the return of Terry Heneghan,
Dave Hallowell, Tim Costello, |ohn
Dowd. Andy and Kent Bolster.

THE CLASS OF NINTEEN SEVENTY SIX
We gather together memories of four years . . . the backlogs of souvenirs
serving as experience for new situations. Through tests and quizzes,
Homecoming and our Prom, plays, parties and sports. — We have made it
together! It is now time we start our separate ways. Go now in peace, my
friends For we are climbers, and the way is steep. Life may have weary
paths and lonely journeys, but let us hold our heads up high and stand up
for what we believe is right and true. Live with love in your soul, and you
will bring happiness to everyone you touch. We are a class considered a
unit. Our approach to the future will be individual, but it will bear the
spirit of 76. Each one of us will succeed in our own special way.

Play for me a melody
Please, won't you?
A ballard, soft and beautiful
Silk, smoothing over this harsh reality;
My lovely dream,
Perhaps just a smile,
But play for me a melody,
In which for a little while,
I can take shelter,
Drive away my troubles,
And shed this cloak of sadness;
Melodies,
Whisper - strands, fingering through the
dark stretches of my mind.

I looked around the room,
Filled with people vibrantly
Like
There was a lady standing at the blackboard,
Writing crazy numbers and letters and formulas
It looked like a jigsaw puzzle.
Her mouth was moving very rapidly,
But nothing was coming out.
Once in a while I'd hear a word or two,
But it really didn't matter anyway.
Her voice seemed to die away after a while
And became a sort of soft monotonous song.
I looked again around the room
No one seemed to be listening to the number lady
Maybe they too couldn't understand her
I felt sorry for the lady with numbers
She seemed to be trying so hard
I wanted to ask her what she was doing it all for,
But it didn't seem appropriate at the time

Tomorrow I'll wonder
Where did he go?
Tarnished memories,
old, brass door-knobs,

Infinity
Many a time in peaceful solitude
I look to the stars and stare in wonder,
Nature displaying Divine pulchritude;
On this infinite cosmos I ponder.
Countless galaxies whirling onward to
Destinations unknown, provoking thought;
Suns die and then others are born anew
From absolute zero to fiery hot.
An endless firmament I can't perceive:
Celestial space without any boundaries,
These and other questions I can not leave,
Answers would my mental hunger appease.
1 38 My sole comfort in seeking the unknown
Is that in my search I am not alone.
Activities
In twenty years, what will you remember of our high school years? Will you
smile, perhaps even laugh a little in memory of some small activity that we were all
so earnestly working for? Even when I think about it now, I realize that we all
learned alot by each of these "small activities". Although these activities will seem
small to us while looking back at them in twenty years, they each seem very
important and very real to us now. We will remember how we learned to share our
talents and our time, our hearts and our homes. We will remember how we learned
to be responsible, not only for ourselves, our own work and actions, but for each
other, our work as a combined effort and our actions as a unified team. Academi-
cally, in the past four years, we have learned to read faster, to write well, and to
think with both logic and imagination, but in working together, we have really
learned, for we have applied these basic skills to a common goal.
A.F.S. Activities
Last summer I observed the alpine culture of the Camonican Valley in Northern Italy with a group of European students. We
became aware of many problems which the Camonican inhabitants face. The central conflict is between the traditional agrarian
way of life and the negative influence of industry on the community.
Since the ancient Camuans settled in the valley, the mountain people have developed a unique way of life. The Camonican
people have always depended on the resources of the land for food, timber, and water power. Mountains on all sides of the land
made it necessary to develop an independant community. Mountain people are noticeably different from other Italians. They are
short, tanned, and wrinkled, before they are thirty. Their dialect is rich in words with German, French, Latin or local origin and
cannot be understood by other Italians. The mountain diet consists chiefly of cheese, wine, and polenta, a cornmeal dish. This
limited diet accounts for the small size of the people. Dwellings are scaled to the people and the need to conserve heat The area
also has its own folk legends and art
The valley has always been one of the poorer regions of Italy. During the fifties the Italian government made efforts to develop
the region. Compulsory schools were established throughout the Valley. When children enter the schools, they are forced to learn
the standard Italian language, often from outside teachers who do not understand the mountain dialect. In this process, a child is
drawn out of his or her home environment into a foreign one As education progresses, children learn of technically more advanced
areas. Instead of feeling pride for their way of life, they begin to regret it and try to change it. Many parents have been forced to
industrial centers such as Brescia or Milan by the economic situation. The population of the villages is divided between the oldest
and the youngest Children are left with their grandmothers who live on farms. These women are called "white widows" in dialect.
The old women cannot take care of the entire work of the farm by themselves. When children grow old enough to manage the
farm they must go to the factories to make money for the family. As a result, the farms are neglected Quite often the entire family
migrates to the South Unable to sell their houses, families abandon them. Some of the smaller villages are completely abandoned
The problem of people migrating to industrial centers, leaving behind their cultural heritage, is world-wide. Industry based on
natural products and skills of the region, such as cooperative dairy centers, canneries, lumber yards, and modern meat packing
plants would produce a more positive economic situation without forcing abandoning of the agricultural base and destruction of
local cultures.

Pegasus is known as the flying horse
of Greek mythology In later years it
became known as the steed which
carried the poet into the realm of
imagination The staff of the 75-76
literary magazine hopes that Pegasus
carried you into your own special
realm.

The Key Club is an organization which serves the community in
a variety of ways, including beach clean-ups, raking leaves for the
elderly and delivering Christmas baskets. These are just a few of
the activities that the Key Club was involved with in the past
year.
As a branch of the Kiwanis, the Duxbury Key Club is a Chapter
of an international organization consisting of hundreds of clubs
all across the nation. The Duxbury Club consists of over thirty
members from the high school who meet every Monday night.
Under the leadership of President, Peter Barlow; Vice
President, )im Myrick; Treasurer, Earnie Freeburg; and Secretary,
Pat Carroll the 1975-1976 Key Club has been living up to its
motto; "Helping Others — A Way of Life."
Club
The Duxbury High School Outing Club was
officially recognized this year Founded three
vears ago. it has served to educate voung adults
about our natural resources. Our activities
include biking and non-technical mountain
climbing, hiking, and cross-country skiing. All of
our trips point out the need for conservation
and the proper management of recreation areas
We also build individual responsibility by
delegating duties and decisions. Most
importantly we learn when self-reliance is
necessary, and when we must rely on each other.
The organizer and sponsor of the Outing Club
is Mr. Richard Miller. Our officers this year were
Augie Hess, president; Mark Hammond, Vice
president; Julie Franke, Secretary; and Tod
Blackmore, treasurer. Through their efforts we
enioved a successful, active year, and are looking
forward to manv more.

Tournament of Plays
Never in the history of the Fall Tournament of Plays has the
competion been so close. All three entries were separated in the
final judging by only five points and each one deserves recognition
In first place was the Sophomore play, "Three on a Bench" It was
the story of an old lady who makes it her business to reunite
quarreling lovers Valerie Raszka as the old lady and Missy Hughes as
the young girl, Betty, won the acting awards for this play. Also in the
cast were lay Hamilton as Betty's boyfriend, Robert Rudeman as a
friendly Irish cop, and Lisa Hundley as the femme fatale
"Three on a Bench
was directed by
Mrs. Susan Cook
and Kimberly
Carson.
The Junior entry,
directed by Richard
Giragosian and
Deborah Hagen
was entitled, "The
Ugly Duckling''
The acting awards
in this tale of
mixed identities
were given to
Anthony Kelso as
the King and Mary
Vienneau as the
Princess.
The Freshmen
put on a play called
"Shut and Bar the
Door", in which an
argument between
a Middle Ages
farmer and his wife
leads to vows of
silence that remain
unbroken even
when they are
threatend by the
Evil Robber This
play was directed
by Mr Ronald
Pomroy and the
acting awards were
won by Susan
Buechler and Mary
Chapdelaine

Auntie Mame was probably the most successful Senior Class Play ever produced in Duxbury High School.
There were many reasons for this, but the most important ones were the least obvious.
What the sellout audiences saw was only the proverbial tip of the iceburg. The most impressive portion
was below the surface.
The largest number of the students to ever participate in a Senior Class Play took part in Auntie Mame.
The cast and crew numbered over fifty. We were warned beforehand that Auntie Mame was a tremendous
undertaking But no one knew exactly how tremendous until the problems began to rear their heads. And it
wasn't long until everyone discovered that the hands were attached to the bodies of brontosauruses.
As the deadline approached nervous exhaustion began to set in and the realization that large chunks of
the play were incomplete scared everyone into fits. We realized we had a monster on our hands.
Dress rehearsal came and went, leaving us with two days to create a peacock out of a massive turkey.
Somehow we pulled it off. The dress rehearsal for the Senior Citizens helped to give the inexperienced
cast a test under fire. Now that we
knew what to expect Friday night, the
curious disease called stagefright no
longer paralyzed limbs and larnyxes.
If audience reaction accounted for
anything, Auntie Mame was a success.
But where it really counted was in our
own minds; and after Saturday night
we were ready to hit Broadway.
We managed to satify ourselves and
our audiences and had a lot of fun in
the process. All the suffering seems
worth it now. We knew Auntie Mame
was good. And we all know that by the
time our tenth reunion rolls around, it
will have improved with age.
DHS CHOIR
In everyone's life, music plays an encour-
aging and enlightening part. Music is a part
of life which we can all share together, no
matter who we are, no matter how different
we are.
The Choir, under the outstanding direc-
tion of Mr. Roger Jarvis, is an organization
directed toward this goal. In a very special
union, the Choir of D.H.S. has performed a
great variety of music from Handel's Hal-
lelujah Chorus to Weber and Rice's Jesus
Christ Superstar. No matter what the occa-
sion, the Choir continues to perform with
joy and excellence.

The 1975-76 Student Council
This year's Student Council has been and will continue to be a
productive part of the student body. Mr. Buechler has been the
advisor of the Student Council and we greatly appreciate his time
and effort. Student Council meetings are held one evening a week
and meetings are run utilizing parlimentary procedure.
The Student Council has accomplished some things this year that
we hope have been a help to students. The Student Council
Bulletin has been passed out once a month and a large calendar has
been posted in the cafeteria; both have served to inform students of
the activities going on during the month.
An Assembly Committee was set up to bring some new and
enjoyable programs to the school. Also, some of the activities
which have been enjoyed in the past will be seen again, such as the
Craft Fair and International Day. Seminar Day, which was coordi-
nated by )oan Connors,
will be put on again next
year.
During the spring, the
Student Council will be
sponsoring three field
trips to Boston to visit the
theatre, a mime group,
and a musical event.
Members of the 1975-76
Student Council were:
Seniors: Barbara Costello,
loan Connors (president),
Julie Haffey (secretary),
and Mark Pixley. Juniors:
Janet Driscoll, Kathy
Knight, Christine Leonard
(treasurer), and Laurie
Richard. Sophomores:
Carol Emerson (vice-presi-
dent), Lisa Hundley, Nan-
cy Tellin, and Amy Thor-
kilson. Freshman: Susan
Buechler, Chuck Heidenr-
eich, Kathy Pynn, and
Laurie Schoula.
We would like to see
more students interested
in student government
and hope that there will
be many new candidates
running in the next Stu-
dent Council elections.
Precious and
Few
The evening of May 16,
1975 has made a mark in
the memories of those
students and faculty
members who attended
the Junior Prom at Rid-
ders' Country Club. Hard
work and determination
on the part of the class of
76 made possible the
final breath-taking results.
The grand march high-
lighted the evening when
the elegantly dressed
couples paraded around
the dance floor accom-
panied by the fantastic
sound of Spur. Everyone
watched as Kim Carson
was crowned Queen with
her escort Paul Ashcroft
beside her. Those elected
to the court were Pat Sul-
livan, escorted by Dave
Kennison, and Julie Haf-
fey, escorted by Kevin M.
McCarthy.
The class of 1976 is
proud to have presented
such a memorable eve-
ning.

The Duxbury Dragon High School Band and
Majorettes is a musical organization made up of
eighty-five students. The duties and responsi-
bilities of the organization are as varied as the
backgrounds of the students themselves. We are
proud of the work and dedication shown contin-
ually by the band and the majorettes and sincere-
ly hope to see them expand and improve in the
future.
The band, under the direction of Arthur John-
son, participated in this year's Christmas Concert,
"Gifts of Music", which presented their medly
from the Broadway musical "Godspell". They
have also played at pep rallies and football
games, and several members have taken part in
the major audition festivals, including
S.E.M.S.B.A., South East District and All-State.

Homecomin
1975
The events of Home-
coming were all a great
success topped off by a
spectacular football vic-
tory over Cohasset. The
pep rally helped to get
the entire into the spirit
of the football game. Each
class contributed their en-
thusiasm and hard work
to the parade in spite of
the pouring rain and then
went on to cheer the
football team to victory.
The week-end closed
with the Steamers enter-
taining at the victory
dance.
