Dance Pic from 1971 Yearbook


This washed out photo was in the 1971 year book. All of the people in this photo were in the graduating class of 1971 with the exception of Lucy Jana who was in my class.

Left to right: Geraldine O'Brien, Lucy Jana, Tom Adamcewicz, and NOT Maureen Kirkland. (My sources say that Gisele Cormier is the next bet. Sorry to Maureen for the mis-identification.)

Marc Adams - Quarterback

In a previous blog entry, (see a few earlier), I outlined the trailer in the back of the 1971 yearbook, where the lyrics to "A Place In The Sun", by Stevie Wonder and Englebert Humperdinck, was profiled with pictures of the student body during the year.

This was one such photo, of the rear end of Number 10, the quarterback Marc Adams, finding his place in the sun.

Initiation 1970


This ritualized hazing called student initiation would never be allowed these days.  Essentially the Grade 10 students got to initiate and humiliate the Minor Niners or incoming Grade 9 class.  Here Dale Irwin is being tormented by Mike Goreski while Victor Suppan laughs in the background.  Dale's face is covered with black shoe polish. He is being made to eat some bitter berries while being sprayed with hairspray while Mike Goreski applies wood glue on him.  All in fun?
