Years from now, 1986 will be just an other year. To this year’s graduating class, however, 1986 will most certainly hold sig nificance. Throughout the year there have been many vivid memories. These memo ries were of many sorts: daily school life, activities, sports, and leisure time. "Last ing Impressions” is an attempt to capture some of the spirit and feeling that was present. Hopefully, this year’s yearbook will serve as a window to the past, evoking many emotions that students felt and al lowing them to cherish this part of their lives.

A senior is someone who: is never in the lunchroom, is rarely in study hall, is always out to lunch, works for half a year, is late to practice, listens to music in the parking lot, comes to school late every day, hates to do homework, gets all of his privileges taken away, loves Reddi Rooster french fries, wants a Senior Room, knows that Mr. Hudson is ubiqui tous, leaves assembly first, should have responsibility, maturity, integrity, and tact, wants to take off his jacket before he puts it on, will say anything to get out of sports, is hopefully going to graduate, writes papers the period before, hates Rock-a-nomics, wants to get into college, doesn’t move out of the way, would rather be sleeping, actually has fun for the last couple of months of school, loves vaca tion, receives a diploma.

Senior Dedication
The Class of 1986 would like to dedicate its yearbook to Mr. Robert Benjamin. A determined Mr. Benjamin came to King School when we were freshmen. Over the past four years, he has served as a teacher, an adviser, a coach, and a good friend. Our class has grown over these years, and much of our development is due to Mr. Benjamin. Often he has been like a big brother to our class. He has laughed, joked, and horsed around with us. When serious, however, we found that he had much to give to our class. Our relationship went beyond "Benjamania� and the "Aaarch Fiend�. Mr. Benjamin was able to prepare us for our lives after high school. His own experiences enlightened us to the many situations that we may encounter. As a class, we hope that Mr. Benjamin has learned as much from us as we have from him. Thank you, Mr. Benjamin, for four years of wholehearted service and friendship.
Headmaster's Address TO THE CLASS OF 1986: As a class, you defy easy characterization. Perhaps that is because individuals define the group, not the other way around. Each of you is part of the whole, but your personal identities remain intact and strong. You are comfortable that way, within yourselves and with each other. Most of you have been together during your four Upper School years. And, as new members of the Class of 1986 came to King as Sophomores or Juniors, they were accepted easily, on their own terms. If there is no overriding group ethic, there are distinct groups within the class. Yet, you are anything but cliquish. Ordinary divisions, according to what people do particularly well, have no appeal to you. Instead, your closest associations are with those who share a particular quality of mind, or personality, or sense of humor. In short, you are genuine, not preoccupied with images. Each one of you is accomplished in some special way, many of you in more than one. Several of you have established outstanding academic records; or have contributed a great deal to the success of athletic teams; or have asserted quiet, effective leadership in major extra-curricular activities. All of us on the faculty respect your individuality, your integrity, your good humor, your ability, your friendliness, your achievements. We have truly enjoyed working with you as people. As you move on to college, you leave behind strong and lasting memories among your teachers. Your ability and hard work will take you far. Your spirit and decency will make the journey fun for you and those who are fortunate enough, as we have been, to travel in your company. All the best, Sincerely,
Headmaster

The 1985 football season was most pro ductive for King School. What began as a building year ended as a year filled with team and individual successes. The Vi kings finished the season with a 3-5 re cord. This record could have been much better if this young football team had had a bit more experience. The first win came against Dalton School, a 20-6 victory in which Dave Garfinkel, Read Hubbard, and quarterback Dan Bevill all scored touchdowns. After tough losses to the always powerful Brunswick and Fieldston squads, the Vi kings were ready for their homecoming opponent, Dwight-Englewood. In front of an enthusiastic crowd, the young King team downed Dwight-Englewood 13-2, marking the third consecutive homecom ing victory for King. The last win came against a very strong Rye team, and dem-
onstrated the tremendous improvemer this King team had made. Rye had wo their last three games and were very confi dent. They were sent home, however, wit a 12-0 loss. This game was marked by the hard-hitting play of defensive-end JeffJa bick. Sophomore Peter Yoars provided| both King touchdowns, catching a touch down pass, and intercepting a Rye pass for a touchdown. At the end of the end of the season David Garfinkel, Ben Sharp, and Michael Kabjian were all selected as members ot the Fairchester All-League Team. Dan Be vill and JeffJabick earned honorable men tion recognition. The Viking Football Team has muchto look forward to. With a majority of the starters returning for 2 years, the team ha' , already demonstrated its desire to win The future looks bright.

The 1985 Varsity Soccer team had a somewhat disappointing season. Finishing up with a 5-8-1 over all record, the team exhibited "too little too late." With a 1-4-1 record after the first six games, all King could look favorably at was a 3-3 tie versus Rye and a 4-2 victory against St. Lukes. But the poor start was not due to a lack of effort or skill. Although King was putting the ball in the net, the team let up 28 goals in the first six games. On the assumption that offense begins at one’s goal, Mr. Tefft made some positional changes and put the team on a tough conditioning program. Consequently, King was able to split its final eight games, letting in only 13 goals. Against the F.A.A. regular season champs, Ham den Hall, King lost two close games 2-1 and 1-0. Although Hamden Hall was victorious in both games, King displayed some excellent hustle and tough defensive play. The highlight of the hard work, though, was shown in games against intra-city rivals, Wright Tech and St. Basils. After a hearty breakfast at the Devereux household. King played a feisty St. Basil's team on homecoming. After the final whistle blew. King ended up with an impressive show in games against intra-city rivals, Wright Tech and St. Basils. After a hearty breakfast at the Dever eux household, King played a fiesty St. Basil's team on homecoming. After the final whistle blew, King ended up with an 6-2 victory in front of a large
,
crowd. A hat-trick by Alexis Rocherolle (8 goals fa the season) and excellent play by captain Dave Park. I er, captain Greg Pesky, and Steve Devereux mads the game a special one for these seniors. B ut the most impressive victory came against a Wright Tech team who had embarrassed King in an earlier game 6-1. In an all-around team effort, King was able to hand Wright Tech only their second loss of the season, 2-1. Senior goaltender, Paul Schauder, played outstanding in the goal, letting in only a penalty shot Meanwhile, Juniors Gabe Etienne, Hooman Ghor ban, and Jeff Marvin displayed the type of play that j will be necessary if King is to win a championship I next year. ™ I• At the end of the season, four King players re ceived All-League recognition for their play. Greg jj Pesky (sweeper) and Junior Chris Beldotti (forward were named to the all-league team; Alexis Rocher olle (forward) and Junior Scott Patten (midfield) re ceived honorable mention distinctions. Besides these i four players Steve Devereux, Mehdi Ali, and Boh Melican had very productive seasons at their respet tive positions. Although the season was not as sue cessful as expected, the team gained valuable exper ience. The team would like to thank Mr. Pollard for added insight, and the two managers, Geoff Pen dexter, and Mitch Olbrys.

Record: 8-1 F.A.A. Championship: 3rd place
To put it bluntly, King Cross Country rocked the fall season. With 8 wins and 1 loss, 2nd in the League, and 3rd in the F.A.A. Championship race, the team has a right to be proud. The team's success can be attributed to dedicated, well-constructed training, and to basic talent — much of it brand new. The "old talent" made up of the top five runners: Matt Dorf, David Zebroski, Jon Spelke, Colin McEvoy, and Captain Andy Torelli (not necessarily in that order!). The "second wave” was comprised of first-year run ners: Joe Krummel, David Mitchell, Chris Cavazzini, Wenton Camporin, and Nick Nagourney. Matt Levett, Joe McKee, Craig Wert, and our sole female, Kathy Rollberg, all provided the support for our leaders. The training schedule we followed, designed by our very own Coach Burns, deserves much of the credit for our winning season. Starting in mid-Au gust, and continuing through September, we built up our "distance base". These long runs through the wilds of Stamford and New Caanan were excellent preparation for the grueling racing season to come. Between October 1st and November 7th, Cross Country competed in 10 races — 2 to 3 meets per week. We lost only to Brunswick. The experience we gained from the training program constructed by Coach Burns clearly accounted for our stunning vic tories. No team can go anywhere without talent. For the first time in many years, King Cross Country had the winning talent. David Zebroski, Matt Dorf, and Jon Spelke turned out stellar performances at every race. Their exploits need no further discussion beyond this: they won the races. However, in viewing the

team collectively, one must not let the light of these three blind one to the achievements of the others. For example, Colin McEvoy rambled in steadily as fourth King runner, often giving the first three a close chase. Joe Krummel similarly snapped at the heels of Captain Torelli, our fifth man. Mitchell, Cavazzini, Camporin, Nagourney and Wert — all new to the sport — showed rapid development throughout the season. Seniors Levett, McKee, and Rollberg moved along with this latter group, deliver ing consistent 100% efforts. The combination of talent psyche, riding on a solid training base, made us second in the League. The team's dedication was evident on numerous oc casions. Following our first and only defeat, inflicted by Brunswick, the team rallied to conquer Rye. This victory put us in an excellent League position — provided we could defeat Harvey. We did. In the meantime, Matt Dorf had led the team against St. Lukes and had set a new home course record. In our last home meet (vs. St. Mary's) the lack of stiff competition did not prevent 9 of our runners from setting personal records. The grand finale of the season, the F.A.A. Championship race at Harvey, saw every team member save one set a personal best. Matt Dorf and Jon Spelke earned All League Honor able Mention recognition. Thus, our position as sec ond in the League was not achieved by accident, but rather by a consistent effort. The team was talented, well-coached, welltrained, psyched, and mildly lucky. Under Colin McEvoy's direction, we're looking for §\ in the League next year; §2 will have to suffice for now.
Varsity Hockey 1985-86 Season The 1986 Varsity Hockey team definitely had its share of ups and downs this season. The team ended the year with a 6-10 record, including two losses in overtime. This unfortunate luck only made the team work harder, thus making the season a very gratify ing and exciting one. The year started off, though, very shaky. With a new coach, many new faces, and four quick losses, the spirit of the team was very much in limbo. Knowing that the team was a lot better than its early showings proved, the Vikings never gave up and were able to win six of their final twelve games. Great turnouts by the student body and the parents were really encouraging factors in urging on the team and also helped in unifying the school, as a whole. The hockey team was lead by a strong group of seniors and juniors. Although King had a few games in which they were outclassed, the team was able to play very respectable hockey against other clubs of comparable and superior ability. A fine example of this was a tough overtime loss to Harvey, 10-9. One of the best games in recent years, King was able to fight back from a four goal deficit only to lose in overtime. On the winning side, King was able to
avenge an earlier overtime loss to New Canaan, with a 5-1 victory. The team also collected victories against: Millbrook 6-0, Trinity Pawling 9-2, Friends Academy 2-1, Watertown 6-2, and Fairfield High School 9-3. King's ability to "blow-out" opponents was indicative of the maturity that the team dis played throughout the year. The team was lead by captain Paul Schauder and alternate captains Charley Brooks and Greg Pesky. As a line they really worked well together and were a strong offensive threat in any given game; combin ing for over forty goals. Backing up the first group was an impressive line composed of Jeff Marvin, Mike Maygar, and Craig Fontenot. Their scrappy, heads up play and tenacious offensive pressure were key in many of the victories. Balancing off the attack were Steve Devereux, Pete Paries, and Sean Annesley, while such players as Dave Masotti, Carter Joffe, and Eric Sanders were able to gain valuable varsity experience. With three solid groups, King had the ability to play with a strong group throughout any particular game. On the defensive end, the team was held together by senior goaltender Lanny Smith. Lanny's poise and
ability to come up with the "big” save, along with strong play provided by Alex Becker, Alex Hoguet, Mehdi Ali, and Phil Seigenfeld allowed for King to come up with five games in which they let in two goals or less. The team was fortunate enough to have acquired new head coach Rick Harrington, a defenseman at both South Kent School and Bowdoin College. Mr. Harrington's brand of "mental” hockey enabled many members of the team to stop making the "dumb” mistakes that had been costly in the past. But as always, King just did not have the amount of icetime needed to beat teams like Rye and Bruns wick. Coach Harrington did an excellent job in pre paring the team for every game, but like the old expression goes, "Practice makes perfect.” For the 1986 Varsity Hockey team, the season was a very positive one. The team would like to thank both Coach Harrington and Mr. Pollard for an excel lent first year of teaching and advising. Thanks also go to the fans, who were particularly enthusiastic and of great help in the motivation of the team.

Varsity Basketball
1985-86 Season
The King Varsity Basketball team has had to struggle this year. The 4-16 record, however, does not indicate the vigor and enthusiasm that emerged during the sea son. It was a lack of experience that con tributed to the poor showing for the varsi ty this season; Bob Melican was the only senior on the squad. There were some bright spots. Chris Beldotti and Ben Sharp were the two point guards for most of the season. Their hustle provided entertain ment and excitem ent in many King games. Other than Beldotti, only sopho more shooting guards, Marc Kligman and
Peter Yoars, returned from last year’s team. Marc controlled the tempo around the perimeter while Pete’s moves often stymied the opposition. Freshman, Read Hubbard began playing after Christmas vacation. He spent the first part of the season on the bench, recouperating from a football injury. His presence, however, was immediately felt. His aggresive re bounding complimented the tough, but consistent play of junior center Chris Kantzas. Kantzas was the leading scorer on the team, averaging some 12 points and as
many rebounds a game. Sophomore swingman, Mike Morrison, was a starter for much of the season, filling in for both Hubbard and Yoars. Senior Bob Melican. junior guard Ray DiGiorgio, and fresh man Bob Simon also contributed to the team. Next season, Coach A1 Tefft will have basically the same squad. All five starters will return, and the only loss will be Melican. The team should be more unified, and hopefully, more fortunate. Good Luck to the Varsity Basketball team next year!

The Chronicle
Student Council The 1985-1986 Student Council by Adam Dubitsky The first Student Council event of the year was the King — Low Heywood fall picnic held at King on September 19. The basic idea of this was to let students in each school catch up on what happened over the summer and to get to know people at King and LHT. Activities such as volley ball, kickball, and tug-of-war were organized to get people together. Entertainment was provided by Carter Joffe’s awesome Chevy Chevette sound system and by Madame Presidente, Sarah Leppo, screaming on top of a table. The "food” was provided by the LHT lunch service and the cost was split between the two schools. This proved to be financially debilitating to our council which started the school year with $167.52. The next order of business was to establish a financial base on which to sponsor future council events. We did this very successfully by raising the Pepsi machine price to 60 cents a can. I would like to personally thank the middle schoolers for their continued patronage and for paying half a dollar for 16 cent doughnuts. Traditionally, Homecoming is the biggest Student Council happening of the year and this year was no excep tion. The King and LHT councils turned up to sell ham burgers and soda at the varsity football game. The food sales proved financially rewarding despite a discrepancy between the schools. After a winning day on the playing fields, the Homecoming Dance in Dwelle Hall was well
attended by both schools. On December 13, LHT had its first dance of the year. Unfortunately, the two schools barely broke even because of a poor turnout. For the last King dance of the year, we tried something different. Instead of getting a professional band or a DJ, we took a chance on a local high school band that played all Grateful Dead. The band attracted a large turnout of tie-dye clad Dead Heads from King, LHT, and Darien High School. Despite the size and diversity of the crowd, there was only one isolated incident of drinking and no fights. The dance was solely sponsored by King and a $150 dollar profit was made. The last King — LHT event of the year was the Spring Fling at LHT. As in past years there was food and games in the afternoon followed by a dance at night. In retrospect, the Student Council’s main purpose was to give the students of King what they wanted (within reason). Input from the students has helped this year’s council to do its job more effectively. I think, to some extent, that the council has met various demands. This, I am happy to say, is what has made this year successful overall. With added support, next year’s council could be even stronger. To quote the United Way: "Thanks to you, it works for all of us!” Good Luck, Adam Dubitsky

1986 Kingsmen This yearbook took an incredible amount of time and energy to put together. Fortunately, it was well worth the effort. 1 tried very hard to come up with a "new look" for Kingsmen. I hope that this year’s yearbook will be perceived as something fresh and original. There are various people who 1 would like to thank for their help and contributions:
Thanks, Joe, for "coming down” nearly every day and doing whatever I asked in addition to handling all of the business matters.
Thanks to Glade for "coming down,” taking out the garbage, making photo copies, and hanging out. Thanks to all others who helped with captions (Geoff P„ Paul S., Dave G., Dave P., Pete P., Ramsay H., and any one else). Thanks to everyone who gave in articles (Greg, Matt L„ Adam D., Steve D., Mr. Main, Ben Sharp, Colin McEvoy. and Mr. Dodd).
Thanks, Mr. Pollard, for cleaning out the yearbook room, getting us a typewriter, and more tables. The room would have never been organized without your inspiration.
Thanks to Juniors Chris Beldotti and Ray Digiorgio for running errands and typing.
Thanks to Joe McKee who spent countless hours in his darkroom developing, enlarging, lightening, etc., not to mention the photos that he took.
Thanks to anyone who went to drop off or pick up photos with me or for me (Joe, Geoff, Jon A., Bob M., Pete, Greg, and anyone else.)
Thanks to Mitch Olbrys for taking a tremendous amount of pictures for me. I hope I didn't annoy you too much.
Thanks to everyone who came down and ate lunch. I greatly appreciated the company.
Thanks to Greg Pesky for photos, captions, articles, and company.
Thanks to Mrs. Karlan and Mrs. Steele, for getting us whatever they could.
Thanks to Steve Devereux for more captions, a funny article, and a couple of other things.

Varsity Marathon Team The 1986 Varsity Marathon team began as a concept in the early fall but did not become a reality until late January. During the time be tween fall and January, the team trained hard in all areas of marathoning. Sometimes this dedica tion became too much for some of the squad, and many members of the team found them selves staggering home after practice. When a meet was finally organized, against a younger, less experienced team, each member thought the team had the talent to come out victorious. In this marathon each team had to finish 84 miles, with each member taking in no less than 8 miles. Although they knew it would be tough, each team entered with a positive attitude. When the race was over the team came out with an impres sive 48 minute winning time. This group of sen iors also deserves a big hand for their incredible sportsmanship for when their miles were done
they were gracious enough to help the other team cross the finish line. The team wishes to give credit to the people who deserve it. Our MVP was Geoff Pendexter for how he pushed himself beyond his limits. The most improved player award was given to David Garfinkel because he did what many thought he could not do. We would also like to thank our loyal photographer, Greg Pesky, who kept up with us every step of the way. Bryan Dailey deserves some credit for how he pumped the team up. The team would also like to give credit to Adam, Mehdi, Ramsey, Dave, Andre, and Matt who had been loyal in training but could not be present for the meet. No plans for another meet have been made but if another meet is organized and seeing how the team has been training, they should remain undefeated.

Very Special Thanks
The Senior Class would officially like to present an unofficial note of thanks to Mr. Van Vechten. Few of us knew him before, yet all of us have enjoyed his presence throughout the year. He’s a funny guy. This quality, however, is not in itself the reason for the class’ appreciation. Rather, it is his distinct humor combined with a lucid understanding of his role as a teacher and a friend that makes him special to our class. He recognizes the deep sadness and the absurd comedy inherent in life and literature; he can distinguish between the two. Similarly, Mr. Van Vechten is acutely aware of the balance be tween seriousness and laughter that promotes stimulating, relatively painless learning. Fondly, The Seniors P.S. Eat your liver!!

To Lanny: "It seems like only yesterday you didn't have a clue You stood alone not knowing where to turn Now suddenly you look around â&#x20AC;&#x201D; everything looks new You don't know why, but you think you're starting to learn Call it understanding, a willingness to grow You're finally understanding there's so much you could know" Remember Always To Do The Best You Can, And Never Stop Believing in Yourself! Love, Mom + Dad Congratulations + Wishes for success to Lanny and the Class of 1986.
