Those goals will serve to direct your efforts and to lay the basis of your appreciation of the good in life. The formulation of goals, there- fore, is the intelligent way for you to direct your efforts and, hence, your life. It is well to remember that the ability or inability to attain your established goals does not necessarily mean success or failure. We are all victims of circumstances over which we have no control and which play an important role in the materialization of our plans. Nevertheless, you have control over your attitudes — the ability to make necessary changes, determinations, enthusiasm, ambition, initiative — which, when controlled, appraised, and properly redirected, provide the momentum essential for the plans outlined. More particularly, happiness is a goal which can be realized by any individual; for it is accomplished by show- ing a real interest in others, acquiring friends with genuine sincerity, participating in activities as a worthwhile citizen — ever cognizant of the ideals which have made this country great. Therefore, the highest pur- pose in real living is then, to discover and develop yourself and to find happiness and satisfaction in the contribution which you can make to the general welfare of mankind. 8 e DONALD MOORE J N March, 1943, the people of Belmont voted to establish and maintain state-aided vocational education in the Town of Belmont. The followng September the Belmont Vocational High School was established, the primary purpose of which is to fit pupils for profitable employment and for good citizenship. The school is set up on a general vocational basis offering diversified shop training in the following fields: automotive repair, cabinetmaking, electrical wiring, radio work, welding and sheet metal work. The school day is divided between shop work, related work, and aca- demic work. Fifty percent of the day is spent in the shop on productive work. Approximately twenty-five percent of the time is spent on related subjects and approximately twenty-five percent on academic subjects and physical education. A work experience policy has been approved by the schoolboard whereby a student in good standing may enter industry upon approval of his parents and at the discretion of the director during regular school hours for a maximum of fifteen days (three weeks) per school year. While training on the job, a student may receive compensation for this experience. In his senior year a boy mav enter industry as early as April 1, provided that he is in good standing in his class. Vocational courses are not necessarily terminal. After graduation from the Vocational High School, advanced training may be received in Evening Trade Extension Courses offered by the Massachusetts State Department of Vocational Education and various engineering schools. For the student who is industrious, sincere, and willing to work, his future possibilities in the vocational field are unlimited. 9 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Millard Stevens (Vice-President) Ruth Brown (Secretary) Byron Taschioglou (Treasurer) Paul Redmond (President) PRUDENCE I.

Sona Haidostian, chairman of the Program Committee, secured some fine entertainment for this large group whose membership totaled about two hundred girls, while Paula Roche proved to be an excel- lent chairman of the Refreshment Committee. We were very fortunate to have with us at our first meeting two fine speakers. Mrs. June Mitchell, head of the dramatic group at Emerson College, spoke to us on dramatics and Connie Clark, a former president of the Belmontian Club, gave us a heart- to-heart talk on the meaning and purpose of the Belmontian Club. Initiation of new members was held at a candlelight ceremony followed by entertain- ment from within the club. We were fortunate in obtaining such excellent speakers as Miss Jenny K. Dunn of the Katharine Gibbs School who spoke on “Career Girl 1950”, and Mr. Russell Curry, whose helpful hints on etiquette were thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by all. The Club was successful in presenting two fashion shows. The models? Why our own Belmontians ! ! The first was a parade of beautiful old-fashioned costumes. This was made possible through the kindness of Mrs. Thomas Griggs, who planned and directed the show and from whose collection the costumes were taken. The second was the annual tea and fashion show for mothers, sponsored by the Club itself. The social highlight of the year was the never-to-be-forgotten Belmontian For- mal, which was given in December. 48 ona ( J4 onor President: Frederick Paulsen Vice-President: James Hekimian Secretary: Lilia May Conlon Treasurer: Charles Parsons FIRST ROW : Mr. Meyers, S.

Living up to their qualities of Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service, the members took an active part in senior activities. In conjunction with the Student Council and the Forum Club, a committee inves- tigated a possible extension of student government power. On January twentieth, to raise money for the annual Comery Scholarship, the Society presented the three-act comedy, “Belvedere”, starring Bob Savage in the role popularized by Clifton Webb in the motion picture version, “Sitting Pretty”. Tom Price was cast as a snoopy neigh- bor named Appleton, and Betty Ahlquist and Fred Paulsen were cast as the parents of two rather unmanageable brats, Harold Hunter and Dick Dickhaut. Peggy Howe, James Hekimian, Betty Chamberlain. James Brine, and Barbara Johnson com- pleted the cast. Extra features initiated at the performance of “Belvedere” were a loud-speaker system to pick up every word on stage and an on-the-spot broadcast of the crucial basketball game at Winchester for the benefit of the play-goers. The cast journeyed to Murphy General Hospital for a repeat performance the following week. The Society members are grateful to Mr. MacCloskey for his excellent direction of the play and to faculty adviser, Mr. Meyers, for his interest and assistance in the execution of club projects. 49 OLe Jlrt CU FIRST ROW: B.

One of our most pleasurable meetings was held on November sec- ond, when some interesting slides, illustrating art work done by boys and girls from all over the world, were shown by Mr. Brule. At our second meeting we saw an in- formative sound film, “Drawing with a Pencil”, which demonstrated the techniques of pencil drawing. Another entertaining time was had in March, when Paula Whiting spoke to the club about ceramics and her studies in the Museum Art School, displayed several pieces of pottery which she had made and displayed. After the meeting, coke and doughnuts were served. In the spring, the club visited several art schools in Boston, where the members enjoyed themselves and gained a great deal of valuable information. The members of the Art Club wish to thank Mr. Brule for helping to make this year so profitable and pleasant. 50 ZJL Sr warns FIRST ROW: E. Crosby, M. Blackham, L. DeMelia, J.

Two other Modern Lan- guage Clubs .joined in the program. Since the three clubs considered this party so successful, they decided to make it an annual feature. Another very interesting meeting in January was held jointly with the French Club. Shep Ginandes entertained the clubs with a varied selection of folk songs in Span- ish, French, and English. At the School Exhibit in April a talented group of volunteer singers demonstrated their ability to delight an audience by singing a number of Puerto Rican and Mexican songs. The lively and happy tempo of these “canciones” was appreciated by everyone. It is the purpose of the Spanish Club to stimulate keener interest in the language and culture of Spain and Spanish America. The meetings of the Club are held primarily to make the members aware of the important cultural and historical role played by the Hispanic world. Our thanks go to Mr. Solano, whose skilled guidance has made this year one “con mucho gusto”. 51 FIRST ROW: Miss Bridey, M. Cheever, M. Rowe (Secretary), E. Coyne (Vice-President), J.

The successful year started with an interesting and informative talk by Miss Graciella Torres, President of the Wellesley College French Club, who spoke of her junior year in France. At the second meeting, colored movies taken last summer in France were shown. We admired the beauty of Savoie and its exquisite scenery. One of our most memorable meetings Vas the Christmas party attended by all the Modern Lan- guage Clubs. Groups sang carols in each language. The highlight of the show came when Lois French sang beautifully “Cantique de Noel”. Both the French and Spanish Clubs were present when Shep Ginandes, accompanying himself on his guitar, sang folk songs in the two languages, as well as in English. At the spring meetings, students from France who were spending the year in American high schools or colleges, were our guests and speakers. The club presented a photographic trip through France at the school exhibit in April. In May, again in conjunction with the German and Spanish clubs, members took part in a program of music and dance. Hats off to the refreshment committee, who kept the members satisfied with deli- cious foods. Bonne-chance a Mademoiselle Bridey et a tous les membres du Cercle Fr angais ! 52 FIRST ROW: N.

This installation was conducted in Latin, with twenty-one ' S officials impressively attired in the traditional togas. Under the able di- rection of Miss Steuerwald and the careful planning of the Aediles, interesting meetings were held monthly. Mr. Auciello and Miss Wriston of the Fine Arts Museum were among the speakers, and music was supplied throughout the year by the Vestals and other talented members. At the Saturnalia meeting at Christmas, “Astrum,” a short play in Latin, was performed, followed by the singing of Latin Christmas carols. Summa continued to help in the support of a school in Creece. All in all, it was another suc- cessful year. 53 D, L2b, rcimci FIRST ROW: I. Milona, B. Adams, J. Thompson, C. Bryant, H. Milas, J.

Eighty aspiring Thespians auditioned to become members of the Club. The interesting tryouts in the fall ranged from pantomimes through monologues and skits to an Arthur Godfrey show complete with singing. Several one-act plays entertained the members during the winter. The quality of a few of the radio skits performed by the students with little or no rehearsal decreased somewhat during the year, but Mr. MacCloskey’s decisive criticism brought about a revival of enthusiasm in the Club. Finally, a professional monologuist pre- sented a very entertaining program to complete the year. Nineteen Fifty’s big project was the production of “Little Women” in April by the Dramatic Club, sponsored by the P.T.A. Council. This presentation was the third of the P.T.A. Council’s annual series. The able cast, including Judy Troy as Joe, Dor- othy O’Brien as Meg, Jody Johnson as Amy, Sona Haidostian as Beth, Sheila O’Leary as Marmee, John Hunter as Laurie, Charles Paskerian as Mr. Brooke, Richard Fogg as Professor Baer, Kathryn Shohl as Aunt March, and William Swentor as Mr. March (father), presented a professional type of performance.

Among the highlights of the football season were the half-time exhibitions pre- sented by our well-drilled bandsmen. The intricate formations initiated for the first time this year included the “The Old Gray Mare”, the pierced Valentine-type heart, the lacing of the football, the Grandfather’s Clock Act, the conventional Belmont “B”, and finally a buzzing airplane that taxied slowly off the field under the power of four baton propellers. This last act climaxed Mr. Nettleton’s enjoyable performances during the football season. At the Tech Tourney, the Band added to the Belmont High School spirit with appropriate selections and with cheer accompaniments. The Belmont High School Band played admirably, not only on the football field and basketball court, but also at the holiday concert programs. The Band’s Spring Concert, introducing “The Grasshopper’s Dance”, and the cert at Graduation exercises brought to a close a season characterized with vast provements over previous years and with the outlook students will always hold in esteem. con- im- of a future band that Belmont dl m USLC FIRST ROW: N.

President: Lucille Levis Vice-President: Janet Sullivan Secretary: Ruth Brown Treasurer: Claire Macdonald O N September 21st amid the clamoring of some one hundred and seventy prospective members, the Music Club held its first meeting. Under the aus- pices of President Lucille Levis and adviser Miss Anderson, the group was initiated into the functions and future plans of the Club. The prospect of staging a vaudeville show brought out added enthusiasm. At the second meeting on December 6th, members of the Club combined to present a Christmas program, which proved to be a program of sufficient talent for the vaudeville show. Outstanding were the Gilmore twins’ thundering rendition of “Malaguena” at the piano, John “Contino” Harman’s slick arrangements on the accordian, and the in- comparable vocalizing of Cunningham, Mahaney, and Swaebe. On December 8, a delegation from the club attended a concert of modern music at B. U.’s Hayden Memorial Auditorium. Jazz authority and radio announcer, Nat Hen- toff, introduced Nat Pierce with his band; the college men of the Crimson Stompers with Vic Dickinson and his trombone; Frankie Newton with his trumpet, two vocalists, and his own band, a six-piece bop ensemble with Nat Pierce at the piano and Charlie Mar- iano on the saxophone. With so many interested and talented members, as well as a willing group of officers, it turned out to be a busy season for the Music Club. 56 FIRST ROW: E. Webster, M. Coughlin, P. Brennan, P.

This year’s Glee Club, once again under the able direction of Mr. Nettleton, was one of the largest in the history of Belmont High School. A new seating arrang- ment was tried out quite successfully. Seniors were seated next to lowerclass mem- bers in order to acquaint the latter with the Club. At Christmas, our Glee Club gave its annual Christmas Concert. “The Story of Christmas” was sung by the Glee Club with the aid of soloists Ruth Brown and Ju- dith Thompson, narrated by students in Mr. MacCloskey’s Speech Arts Class, and il- lustrated with a tableaux by the members of Mr. Brule’s Art Classes. The fac- ulty and student body were truly impressed with the splendid work of the Club.

The varied programs included an amazing scientific demonstration by Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Hanson of General Motors; food-health movies by Mr. Roetzel; and appearances by the brilliant radio violinist, Alfredo Cavalieri; the per- sonable and amusing etiquette expert, Mr. Russell Curry, and Captain James Coletta, formerly of the U. S. Military Intelligence Service. At football games, the busy Student Council members were the indispensable sales- men of programs and, in their homerooms, of tickets to school functions; and they assisted with collections for such worthy charities as the March of Dimes and the Salvation Army. The Council joined the members of the Forum Club and the National Honor Society in an investigation of greater power in student government, and with the Yearbook Staff, it sponsored the once-in-a-lifetime Mid-Centennial Costume Ball on January seventh. On April first, delegates Pat Gillis, Henry Halligan, James Rahal, and Ray Russell, and reresentatives Beryl Bryant. Barbara Johnson, Hubert Maguire, and Paul Redmond joined E.D.M.S.C. secretary Lilia May Conlon at the convention of the Eastern Divi- sion of Massachusetts Student Councils at Watertown. Much of the credit for the success of the Student Council must go to Mr. Kolouch for his invaluable guidance throughout the year. 58 TAjA OL 3o rum cu FIRST ROW: S. Haidostian, I. Milona, J.

A lively debate was held on October 11 entitled: “Is B.H.S. Student Gov- ernment Adequate?” The participants included Dick Harris, James Hekimian, and Charles Parsons. As an outgrowth of the meeting, a committee to study student gov- ernment was formed by President Sullivan. This committee held a number of meet- ings throughout the year exploring the subject. Many interesting talks were given during the year. Mr. C. F. Mosteller, a statisti- cal expert from Harvard, spoke on Polls. Mrs. William Siffin of the Massachusetts Fed- eration of Taxpayers Association discussed the Town Manager Plan. Mr. Conrad Brant, research fellow from Harvard, gave a talk on China. In February a debate, “Should 18 year olds have the right to vote,” was held. Speakers were Joan Mahoney, Kathryn Shohl, Richard Fogg, and Joseph Nix. At the annual school exhibit held on April 13, the Club presented a model town meeting. Charles Parsons, Joseph Sullivan, Bradford Atwood, and Philip Swaebe de- bated the topic: “Does Belmont Need the Town Manager Plan.” On April 25, the Club played host to the Periclean Forum Club of Arlington. The topic, “Would a Federal World Government I nsure World Peace”, was ably and profit- ably discussed. So concluded a year of club activity in which members had an op- portunity to participate in significant discussions and to acquire new information, 59 FIRST ROW: Miss Magee, E. Quinn, A.

Under the editing of j James Hekimian, the manuscript proved to be a well qualified runner-up to those I of previous years. However, the second issue really made the staff “burst their buttons.” Six printed pages not only made its editors and writers proud as punch but also pleased the student body. With this record to stand on, a capable staff, ambitious editor, and with enough gossip to keep Jinx wondering, the issues came fast and furious. Ruth Brown, Ruth Burns, Nancy Darling, Barbara Johnson, James Brine, Rich- ard Harris, James Hekimian, Fred Paulsen, Robert Savage, and Joseph Sullivan went to one of three high school editors’ parties given by the “Globe” at the Copley Plaza Ballroom. The speakers were Sumner Pike, acting director of the Atomic Energy Commission; Mr. Davidson, an official of Edison Company; and Mr. Salisbury, informa- tion director of the Atomic Energy Commission. Mr. Otto Zausmer, Globe columnist, served as moderator. After a lively question period, refreshments were served. Sports editor Sullivan’s interesting write-ups, varying features under the guid- ance of Barbara Johnson, and the ever laughable dialect of Salty, to name a few things which kept the public busy, certai nly made a successful year for the paper and every- one concerned. Our thanks to Miss Magee and Mr. Shipp for their advice and counsel. 60 DL Booh worms President: Patricia Mullaney Vice-President: Nancy Oteri Secretary: Barbara Brigham Librarian: Lorraine DeMilia — I FIRST ROW: Miss Ames, M.

The first meeting of the year was held to elect officers. The guest of honor was Bert Mullane y, president of the Club in 1948 and brother of the present president. Members of the Club and guests presented several interesting skits. The high- light of the meeting was a tie between an enormous anniversary cake elaborately dec- orted for the occasion and Bert’s singing. It was difficult to say which was enjoyed most. At four-thirty, we sang together “Should Old Acquaintance be Forgot”, and Miss Ames, adviser, sent us home with a happy feeling of renewed friendships. Altogether, it was a pleasant afternoon. Since 1940 when the Club was founded, it has grown from nineteen members to forty-six members. Through the ten years that the Club has e xisted, it has purchased between three and four hundred books with the dues paid The purpose of the Club is to enable its members to purchase the latest books as soon as they become available. As you can see by the titles of the following books, the Club has lived up to its purpose of acquiring recent books: “The Greatest Story One More” by Anna Rose. 61 Jhe J lome Economics FIRST ROW : C.

At the second meeting, program chairman Marcia Sullivan pre- sented two speakers from the New Haven Railroad. Mrs. Albert from the Academie Modern gave the members many pointers on modeling and hygiene. Dur- ing an extra period, the Club saw a movie on the art of modern cake baking. On Washington’s Birthday, despite a severe snowstorm, some fifteen of the members en- joyed an evening of rollerskating at the Bal-A-Rou Rollerway. Another activity of’ the Club was a talent show. Elaine Grant and Esther Crosby did an Irish jig; Betty and Barbara Gilmore played the piano; Margaret Pennino accompanied Ruth Brown who sang “My Hero” and “Through the Years”; Irene Milona did a novelty act, and Margaret Pennino played the popular songs requested by the audience. More than fifty girls showed off their handiwork in the fashion show in Feb- ruary. Jean Hannigan modeled her dressing gown of quilted taffy satin. Barbara Brigham designed and sewed a blue-and-pink iridescent taffeta dress. Betty Moore and Cynthia Sylvia made plaid taffeta skirts. Perhaps the biggest hits of the show were the ruffled flannel nightgown Margie MacNabb wore and the identical red cord- uroy overalls made by announcer Nancy Oteri and modeled by her two tiny nieces. Lucille Levis’ white brocade evening gown provided a breathtaking close. Congratula- tions to our excellent designers, seamstresses, and models. 62 DL Red C, roSS FIRST ROW : Miss Richmond, J.

President : Phyllis Gale Vice-President: Ruth Burns Secretary : Carol Moriarty Treasurer : Marilyn Attridge HE Junior Red Cross Club, one of the largest in the school, has completed another successful year under the capable leadership of Miss Loring and Miss Richmond. Always busy, the Junior Red Cross Club conducted a Drive in the fall during which over $60.00 was generously donated by members of the student body. One of the girls’ favorite projects was making favors for the many surrounding hospitals. Thanksgiving Day favors for the Veterans’ Hospital were small Puritan hats containing cigarettes. The Christmas project was little candy favors for the Children’s Hospital. Many Christmas boxes were also filled for destitute children in foreign countries. Later, charming little ‘thank-you’ notes in various foreign tongues came from the children who had received these boxes. One of the most worthwhile projects of the year was the dressing of dolls and the making of scrapbooks to be given as gifts of welcome to the children of Displaced Per- sons when first they arrive in America. The girls vied with one another to make the dolls attractive; the scrapbooks were both pretty and useful, for they were designed to acquaint the little newcomers with our language. During the year, Club members worked on oil cloth animals which also were for (Continued on Page 101) 63 DL SL CU FIRST ROW: M. Keane, M. Hurley, R. Giblin, M. Bliss, W. Connor, A. Benger, A.

The Club, with an enrollment f I of seventy-six members, was capably led this year by its officers and Mr. Lloyd Smith, adviser. Through the efforts of Alan Benger, program committee chairman, many inter- esting meetings were arranged. Mr. Osborne, local ski authority, gave a very in- teresting talk on the care of equipment. A movie that was enjoyed for its inspiring winter scenery was “The Case”. The setting of this very lively film was Sun Valley, the winter sports mecca of the United States. The old master, Hans Schneider himself, was pursued by a score of expert skiers, but after eluding them all in a grueling hour chase, Schneider was caught by none other than a five year old neophyte. Two other movies were “Nations of Skiers”, an instructional film, and “Skiiing down the Alps”, an interesting and helpful begin- ners’ movie. Although there were no officially organized bus trips to the ski areas, small groups of members motored or availed themselves of the Boston and Maine Snowtrains and spent many of their weekends on the New Hampshire and Vermont slopes. A Belmont High School Ski Club member is easily identified by a colorful and neat Club emblem available at a nominal price. 64 D, L Cc amera FIRST ROW: R. Brown, C. MacDonald, L. Wereminski, L.

The aim of the members was to learn more about the technical side of the picture-taking process. The first meeting consisted of learning the fundamentals of developing. Later meetings included direction in printing techniques and field trips to develop composition techniques. The students spent many enjoyable extracurricular hours of activity working in the darkroom, and afterward discussed the results with fellow shutterbugs. The dark room has been in constant use since the Club was organized. The main interest of the members lay primarily in getting new and original shots, and then mak- ing the finished product themselves. The Club designed their own membersh ' p cards and then Mr. Clish photographed and printed them. The most successful meeting of the year was a field trip in the vicinity of the High School. The members concentrated on making well-known scenes into pictures of strik- ing interest. The results were well worth the effort, and the pictures taken that day are good proof of the skill of our photographers. All in all the members were interested in the work and cooperated to make a well organized and successful club. 65 President : Robert Moynihan Vice-President : Robert Savage Secretary: Millard Stevens Treasurer : Millard Stevens SECOND ROW: Miss Dorntee, W.

The activities of the club were guided and super- vised by Miss Dorntee as faculty adviser. In early October there was the election of officers. Soon afterward a new club con- stitution was adopted, and in the school corridors one saw initiation antics of our new members. In February, there was a combination Valentine and Bon Voyage party for Joyce Bok, who soon afterwards left for Africa. Later in the spring Mrs. Angelika Forsberg, a German teacher who had escaped Hitler’s Germany before the war, was invited to speak to the club and to describe some of her experiences and life and customs in Germany when she was in school. An Easter musicale was also planned with the other language clubs, in which we located plenty of home talent for another joint meeting. At the Exhibition held in April it was the Dachshunde Verein that gave a truly foreign atmosphere with its Rathskeller setting and the singing of the famous Schnit- zelbank song. All members agree that the Dachshunde Verein has provided opportunities not only for entertainment, but also for a better understanding of Germany, its people and its language. 66 DL S emor Min III miiMiin il ' • Ml ' lli Nancy Oteri, Frank Dunnington, Thomas Price, Jan Parker, Charles Paskerian, Carol Bryant, Robert Savage, Helen Milas, John Comerford, Sheila O’Leary, Robert D.

Talented Carol Bryant brought to the role of Elizabeth a warm and sensitive interpretation, and Charles Paskerian as Browning handled well a difficult part. A pleasant surprise was gifted Helen Milas, who emerged as a beautiful and charming Henrietta. Perfectly cast were John Com- erford as Captain Surtees Cook, Henrietta’s persevering beau, and Tom Price as young- er brother Octavius. Frank Dunnington made a very dashing George Barrett and Rob- ert Miller a most distinguished-looking John Kenyon. Elizabeth’s handmaid, Wilson, was tartly portrayed by Lucille Levis. Good in supporting roles were Nancy Oteri, Jan Parker, and Sheila O’Leary. And overshadowing all the others was the impressive performance of Robert Savage as the tyrannical Barrett. Our hat is oil to Mr. Mac- Closkey for a superb job of casting and directing, and to the cast for a great perform- ance.

HE Belmont Woman’s Club aims to broaden and strengthen the moral, intellectual and social life of its members and the community. Each year, by awarding honorary membership cards to ten outstanding junior girls of the High School, the Club advances its pur- pose. In 1949, Vilma Barbuto, Norma Berringer, Betty Chamberlain, Lilia May Con- lon, Barbara Dow, Sona Haidostian, Barbara Johnson, Katharine Merk, Helen Milas and Jan Parker were admitted into the Club as honorary members with all the privileges of the Club. Through these girls, the Club holds an active interest in the activities of the High School. It awards two hundred dollars in scholarships every spring and main- tains a scholarship loan fund for students. Besid es sponsoring an annual essay contest and promoting the school exhibit every two years, the Club arranges many moneymaking affairs to raise the means for its scholarships. Thus, the Belmont Woman’s Club maintains its high standing in the community. The Rotary Club of Belmont, through its Junior Rotarian movement, strives each year to instill the ideal of “Service above Self” in the minds of eight senior boys from the student body. It is their hope that these boys in turn will convey this standard of Rotary to their classmates. The eight boys who represented the high school at Rotary meetings, James Heki- mian, Albert Marsh, Charles Pappas, Paul Redmond, Robert Savage, Richard Scarfo, Millard Stevens, and Richard Watson wish to give their sincere thanks to the mem- bers in charge of the youth movement and all the other members of Rotary from whom they have acquired invaluable ideas and aid throughout the school year. 68 Most Ambitious Most Versatile Most Popular Best Dressed Did Most For B.

Pre- viously the Red and Blue had drubbed two Eastern Massachusetts’ power- houses, Rockland and Braintree, 52-43 and 45-39. The backbone of the team was, that midwestern basketball wizard, Dick Watson who, with his total of 412 points for the year (a new B.H.S. record), more than carried the load for the Wennermen. Dick was also the scor- ing leader of the Middlesex League with 233 points. Another distinction, was his new Boston Garden foul shooting record, set in the second game of the Tech Tournament with Braintree when he sank 11 foul shots. Walter Nelson did a grand job at center with 216 points for the year. Assisting Watson at the other forward position, was diminutive Dick Collier. Wenner had two reliable guards in Albert Marsh and Millard Stevens. Stevens figured greatly in the Belmont offense as his 97 points attest. Not to be overlooked for their valuable assistance were the nine following reserve men: Mike Polese, Paul Redmond, John Green, John Caruso, Lindsay Walker, John Car- michael, Harold McElroy, Franny Gillis, and Bill Corey. After a shaky start, no doubt caused by the rugged schedule of three preliminary games with Class A powers, Belmont found its true form. The Middlesex League was definitely not a soft circuit this season as the majority of the schools boasted of vet- eran squad. Belmont, for the third successive year, took first place with a 12-2 record. Dick Collier and Mike Polese have been elected co-captains for 1951. Next year’s squad has all the earmarks of another championship club as indicated by this year’s standout Junior Varsity squad. COACH WENNER FIRST ROW: R. Col- lier, J. Caruso, A. Marsh, W. Nelson, R.

The year was dramatically climaxed with the Thanksgiving Game when Belmont lost a one-pointer, 14-13, in what Belmont fans regarded as more than a “moral victory.” The team play of the backfield was excellent. An able leader w’as provided in quarterback Dick Watson, whose passing was the spearhead of the Belmont offense. Ralph Pecora and Co-Captain Wickie Walsh at halfback constantly crashed through the opponents’ defense, and Gordon Fitch at full- back was always a ready threat. In the line, ends Beilis and Crotty were reliable pass catchers and defensive king pins. Tackles, Phil Gogan, with his life saving kicks, and hulky Co-Captain Charles Pappas, were the backbone of the line. Accurate center Wally Nelson and scrappy Franny Coyle were both stellar on both defense and offense. Emmett Atwater’s performance in the Norwood game won’t soon be forgotten, and Jack McDougall’s aggressiveness was invaluable in the line. McDougall and At- water were elected next year’s Co-Captains and should start the 1950 squad off on the right foot.

Supporting him were Joe Faulk- ner, Dick Willander, Dan Pennachio, John Harman, Henry Kerr, and Stewart Hussey.

Our team again was among the top schools in the Middlesex League, annually domin- ated by Belmont. Spearheaded during the season by Captain Dick Watson, who carried on from his superlative actions in football and basketball as number one singles man, the team played an inspired brand of tennis with private schools like Andover and Middlesex as well as league schools. The first team included such standout seniors as Ray Russell, Fred Paulsen, John Comerford, and two coming juniors, Schatzki and Pierce. When the final results of the Eastern Massachusetts tennis tournament are dis- closed, we expect a player from B.H.S., wielding a formidable racket, will bring home the championship to climax an overly successful season on the part of the tennis team. 78 Oke Qot( Deam REAR ROW : Gerard McKearin, William Corey, William Williams, Mr, Cowing, Robert Elwell, Roger DiNapoli, Robert Moynihan.

I LAYERS at B.H.S. participating in such a recreational sport as golf in the spring, not only entered and competed in many close and highly-competitive matches, but also spent many an enjoyable afternoon on the Fresh Pond Golf Course. Belmont’s chief rival was Lexington, and the leading players of the two teams fought it out on their respective links for the championship in the golf league consisting of Arl- ington, Cambridge Latin, and Rindge Tech. The boys demonstrating the longest drives off the tee and the most accurate ap- proach shots were such esteemed amateurs as Bob Moynihan, Bill Corey, Bill Williams, Roger DiNapoli, and Bob Elwell. Mario Celi was one of the promising juniors, who should be the star in ’51. The team gained help from Gerry McKearin also, a converted tennis letterman. This Year’s B.H.S. golf squad, combining pleasure with competitive play, spent a very profitable season under the direction of Coach Cowing. Here is one sport that can be followed indefinitely, even though graduation breaks up the team. 79 Jtxe Jrocheu 3 earn f) g OBODY had hope of ruling the league in 1950, so we were braced for what M happened. Although every game was lost, Belmont was not a soft touch. Spirit f and a never-say-die attitude forced opponents to earn their victories. Jack McDougall upheld the scoring column for the first two thirds of the season. Scoring in the last third was dominated by Roy Keefe and Tom Sheehy. In at least four games the defense was outstanding, boding well for next year. This year the accent was on youth. The starting line-up of Jack McDougall, Roy Keefe, Tom Sheehy, Bob Busa, Mai Daly, and Eddie Kerr will return to lead next year’s outfit. The Class of ’50 was represented by Richard Regan, Francis Regan, Bob MacMillan, Gordon Gilson, Wickie Walsh, and Joe Crotty.

Even though this is not too impressive, the B.H.S. team was not surpassed for over-all school spirit and aggressiveness. Highlights of the long and bitterly-contested season were a victory over rival Watertown and ties with the powerful and overly-confident Governor Dummer and Medford elevens. Captain Charles Crisafulli spearheaded the team’s attack from his center-half- back position. Other 60 minute standouts were Jerry Gerace, outside left, who seemed to have no end of endurance, John Caruso, center forward, who was one of the team’s high scorers and John Carmichael, inside right, who saved more than one game from the clutches of the opposition with last-minute goals. Taking everything into consideration, Coach Mel Wenner’s soccer squad expe- rienced a worthwhile and successful season.

We must not forget the guards of the Varsity team who turned in an outstanding performance: Joan Engewald, Kathryn Shohl, Mary Keane, Shirley Glazier and Jeannette Travelo. Nice work, girls. Our Junior Varsity, captained by Betty Dunbar and Paula Swaebe, should have been called the Sophomore Junior Varsity team. Forwards were Betty Dunbar, Gen- evra Osborn, Geneva Grimes, Patricia Sullivan, Beryl Bryant, and Bonny Moran. The guards were Paula Swaebe, Ann Canfield, Jane McGonagle, Marylee Boyle, and Franny Heron. Although the team cannot boast of an undefeated season, they can all be proud of the fact that their spirit and fine sportsmanship was the highlight of every game. 82 REAR ROW : Miss Cleary, Paula Swaebe, Janet Geggis, Ann Canfield, Rosamond Moran, Claire Palmer, Joan Larsen, Shirley Glazier. FRONT ROW: Lois Marsh, Dolores Butt, Theresa Fasciano, Joan Engewald, Evelyn Stella, Elinor Quinn, Lorraine Beard. w ISS CLEARY was very proud of her team this year because they had an un- usually successful season against Arlington, Melrose, Lexington, Concord, Winchester and Malden. Experience and confidence were the main factors in bringing victory to the school. Veterans from last year were Elinor Quinn, a classy shortstop; Captain Joan Engewald, who did very well at third base; Evelyn Stella, our star second baseman who shared her duties with former Pitcher Lois Marsh and Lor- raine Beard, a terrific curve ball artist who will be back again next year. Other members of the team were Paula Swaebe, Teresa Fasciano, Shirley Gazier, Janet Geggis, Ann Canfield, Ronny Moran, Joan Larsen, Claire Palmer, and Dolores Butt. Congratulations to Miss Cleary and her team for showing such fine sportsmanship and spirit throughout the season. 83 HIS year’s field hockey team, coached by Miss Cleary and led by Captain Elinor Quinn, had rather a disastrous season, winning two, losing three, and tying one game. After winning their first two away games, the girls dropped three home games to the powerful Lexington, Winchester, and Malden clubs who seemed to have that extra push to get the ball into the cage. Held over from last year’s undefeated team were Captain Quinn, forward, Joan Enge- wald, forward, and Glenn MacKenzie, defenseman were C. Napoli, J. Giacolone, S. Glaz- ier, P. Swaebe, J. Wallis, J. Perry, K. Shohl, L. Levis, C. Macdonald, and J. Linn. The J. V.’s did very well this year and with the material Miss Cleary has to work with, we are sure the 1950 field hockey team will have a very successful year.

I LTHOUGH severely handicapped by the loss of many stars from last year’s championship squad, this season’s track team was no exception to the long record of winning teams produced by Coach Wenner at Belmont High. At the State meet in May, Belmont still looked great in a losing cause. The team had two able co-captains in Hubert Maguire and Charles Crisafulli, Maguire, who did considerable indoor running during the winter, was by far one of the foremost milers in the State. Versatile Crisafulli was equally adept in the 220, high .jump, and relay. A winning combination of Ralph .Johnson and Whitney Walsh parti- cipated in the broad jump, 220, and relay. Pete Ferrini, who set a new record in last year’s state meet, continued his fine work in the hurdles. Millard Stevens, a 440 vet- eran, also participated in the shot-put. Gordon Fitch filled the bill in the 100 yard dash and also completed the relay team. 85 yt ft t 1 □L HI • v V ' % 2 a JHft • - «ar. :J| : £JEf U 1 - ilT ■jr p-- l|7f iUfrrt June 20 — Senior Elections Sept. 7 — Start of School Sept. 24 — Start of Football Season Oct. 15 — Varsity Drag Nov. 5 — Scholarship Dance Nov. 18 — Senior Play Nov. 24 — Thanksgiving Day Game Dec. 10 — Start of Hockey Season Dec. 13 — Start of Basketball Season Dec. 17 — Belmontian Formal Dec. 18 — Christmas Concert Dec. 23 — Jan. 3 — Christmas Recess Jan. 7 — Mid-Centennial Costume Ball Jan. 20 — National Honor Society Play Jan. 25-27 — Midyear Exams Jan. 28 — Infantile Fund Dance Feb. 17-27 — Midwinter Vacation March 9-10-11 — Tech Tourney March 11 — College Board Exams March 25 — Basketball Dance April 13 — All School Exhibit April 14 — Dramatic Club Play April 14-24 — Spring Recess April 21 — Start of Track Season April 24 — Start of Baseball Season May 5 — Sophomore Record Hop May 12 — High School Music Concert May 27 — Junior-Senior Prom May 29 — Senior Banquet June 1 — Senior Assembly June 5 — Class Day June 6 — Boosters’ Banquet June 8 — Graduation June 21 — Close of School 87 IN BELMONT at Cushing Square shows fashions within your budget . . for every phase of your athletic . . . school . . . social life!
