STANDARD BOOKBINOING CO 155 MT 1UBURN ST WATTRTOWN. MASSACHUSETTS J-fHNV SD MO the class of 1952 presents the BLUEPRINT to the class of 1952 Class activities are a valuable training ground for the various gro p int ests in which you will participate in many phases of life later on. Your class, with its accomplishments, is one of which you can be justly proud. My close association with you these past three years has been a source of keen interest, great pleasure, and now — much satisfaction. My very best wishes for the future to you all! William Bettencourt 4 dedication i ORDS seem inadequate as we pay tribute to our Mr. “B.” What he has done I Jl 1 for our class is something which each of us shall never forget. His un- f derstanding of youth, his sincere friendliness, his boundless originality, and most certainly his time and effort all combined to make our high school years the most memorable ones of our lives. It is with deepest appreciation and gratitude that we dedicate the 1952 Blueprint to our class advisor, Mr. William Bettencourt. 5 mr. george higginbottom The building of strength on the moral front is our major challenge today. General Omar Bradley recently summarized it when he said, “We have too many men of science, too few men of God. We have grasped the mystery of the atom, and forgotten the Sermon on the Mount. We live in a world which has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience; a world of nuclear giants and ethical dwarfs. We know more about war than we know of peace.” It is difficult to solve critical social, economic, and political problems unless we know in what we believe and what we are willing to defend. As our forefathers expressed their beliefs in the Declaration of Independence and in the Pre- amble to the Constitution in answer to despotism, so must we express in an aqually con- vincing manner our answer to a new despotic ideology which seeks to destroy the liberty and justice which we too often take for granted In the near future, many of you may be called upon to make great sacrifices in terms of military service. For you, it will mean personal and social adjustments, and the temporary denial of your right to pursue the interests and ambitions which you had planned. However, no matter where you may be, no one of you should fail to accept your moral responsibility to assist in the development of a better society in America and the world at large. The concern for the welfare of others, co-operation with them for goals worthy of universal acceptance, conviction that such principles and ideals will eventually be more significant and meaningful - these moral imperatives are the touchstones to pro- ductive citizenship. 6 left: bridey seaman bettencourt egan nettleton deary gould davis meyers kolouch jacobs loring mcbain joyce dorntee steuerwald shipp blennerhassett calderara orton noreen corrigan kearney higginbottom lincoln magee o ' connor richmond Hornsey clish maccloskey boudreau t. smith ames brule cowing wenner nagle libby howarth solano crowson anderson lisabeth mathews 1. smith FACULTY BUSINESS MANAGER JUDITH GORDON contributors Barbara Brace Peter Bradford Eleanor Chaffee Robert Giroux Geneva Grimes Joan Laing Marion Linehan Marie Lockwood Doreen Lorentzen Richard Marsh Mary McCarthy Patricia Minehane Joan Morrill Dorothy O’Brien Patryce O’Neill Jackie Piazza Sherry Richards Faith Rohrbough Marie Russo Virginia Shaw Thomas Sheehy Lois Stone Barbara Shaw Nancy O’Hara Jane Doherty Connie O’Sullivan Mary Ann Cogliani Elizabeth Ganak Joan Devine Connie Lee Shirly White Ann Hinckley exit the editors EDITORS IN CHIEF JANE McGONAGLE OTIS JOHNSON LITERARY EDITOR ELINOR STONEMAN PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR GRACIA PARKHILL ALLAN LARSSON, Ass t.

Subjects for de- bates have run the gamut from Senator McCarthy to Middle Eastern •S a ff a i rS) and the range of opinions has been just as wide. If the dis- putants failed to find any other area of agreement, amicable relations seemed to be miraculously restored by refreshments. The Forum Club, ad- vised by Miss Anderson, has long been interested in the problems of student government, and as a step in the right direction, it has had voting booths constructed for use in school elections. Wherever its members go, the Forum Club will have served as a good introduction to the democratic method. 16 FIRST ROW: U. Reidy, A. Canfield, F. Rohr bough, S. Arone, R. Willander (Treasurer), R.

Anderson. now, according to robert ' s rules of order ...student council f HE Student Council, led by Mr. Kolouch, made it mandatory for i its members to report back to their homerooms after every meeting y so that the function of the Student Council would become better known throughout the school. “S. C.” members scurrying up and down the halls collecting funds for every conceivable drive became a familiar sight, and maybe even a slightly unwelcome one to people conscious of flattened wal- lets. Council members sold programs at the home football games and red- and-blue B.H.S. buttons for school-spirited sports lovers. To relax from busi- ness, they held two dances — “The Harvest Hop” to start the year on the right foot socially, and “The Frosty Frolic,” to provide a little relief from mid-year strain. 17 FIRST ROW: E.

' the brain trusters ' national honor society... HIS year’s National Honor Society members, having carefully stored their little gold pins at home, carried on the N.H.S. code of Char- y acter - Scholarship - and Service. Bob Clayton appeared on the scene in November for the N.H.S. dance, a record success in the annals of the organization. In March, seven members, chosen out of a hat because of the goodly supply of willing talent, took the National Honor So- ciety Scholarship Examination. The only problem of the N.H.S. was that all its members were so busy with other activities that they barely had time to say hail and farwell to Mr. Meyers. 18 FIRST ROW: J. Harvey, E. Stoneman, G.

U • tt citizens, j. g. junior rotarions and honorary . . . members of the belmont woman ' s club HE B elmont Woman’s Club and the Rotary Club, eager to promote t interest in community affairs on the part of future citizens, have y made an annual tradition of honoring a group of B.H.S. students with special membership. The Honorary Members of the Woman’s Club were hospitably received at several functions during the year. The Junior Rotarians attended weekly meetings of this highly respected inter- national organization, learning its ideals and getting acquainted with its members. Thus, two of Belmont’s civic-minded organizations have provided a useful glimpse of their active contribution to town life. 19 FIRST ROW: P. Minehane (News Editor), M.

' HE hustle and bustle of a newspaper office was much in evidence around i room 213 as Editor-in-chief, Ronald Clark and his staff struggled to get all y the last minute news into the “Star”. The contents of the paper, partic- ularly of the “Jinx Wonders” column, came in for much healthy discus- sion and criticism this year, but no final solution has been found. Issues of the “Star” were enlivened by teacher and student “Profiles”, special features on Europe written by a well-traveled senior, and controversy in the editorial column, plus the usual sports, club, and music write-ups. Some of our editors were guests at the parties sponsored by the Boston Globe at the Sheraton Plaza. They heard some of the inside workings of a big newspaper and traded ideas with other editors of school publications. Miss Magee and Mr. Shipp are to be congratulated for their guidance, carried out with a maximum of effiency and a minimum of control. 20 FIRST ROW: P. Harvey ' Augur i, C. Floe (Aedile), C.

The club heard Mr. Stephen Daitz on “The Training of a Classical Scholar Today” and saw a film presented by the Reverend Claude Butterfield on the work of the Save the Children Federation. The annual Alumni Day in April brought back the old grads, sincere and vocal in their appreciation of Miss Steuerwald’s Latin course. Having taken over the Save the Children Federation and the sponsorship of the Greek school, the group applied its energies to planning, practicing, and performing the Golden Band Box, a show composed entirely of our best local talent. A rousing success, the show proved that Latin scholars can be practical as well as learned. 21 FIRST ROW: P. Pizzi, M. Stoller, F. Napoli, R. Phillips, T Cro ' .v!?v SECOND ROW: B. Shaw, J.

The most popular offering of Mr. Solano’s El Circulo Espagnol was a film version of the famous Spanish classic, Don Quixote. Any members who find their way to Spain will have a broad background in the history and literature of the country. 22 FIRST ROW: S. Zulalian, R. Baer, M. Beylick (Secretary), A.

The regular members of the club were very glad to have her take part in their activities; they only wished that their German was as good as her English. The intriguing folklore and songs of old Germany sparked the Christmas party, and June brought a picnic for Miss Dorntee’s “dachshundes.” 23 FIRST ROW: B. Rapport, J. Russell, D. O ' Brien, R.

O PPORTUNITIES to increase their knowledge of French and of France came thick and fast to to the members of Le Cercle Francais. Our distinguished European travelers, Brad MacCormack and Pres- cott Clark, well-equipped with slides, started the year with accounts of their experiences in France. During December, Mr. Claude Levi of M.I.T. outlined in rapid French the Christmas customs of France. In March came the last half of the film Les Miserables, which elicited triumphant murmurs from the audience whenever a familiar word was spotted. Mile. Denise Acard, an exchange teacher from Le Havre, spoke to the club on her impressions of school life in America. Mile Acard was also the judge of the annual French contest for adventurous students. 24 FIRST ROW: F. Viglirolo, S. Daghlian, N. O ' Hara, R. Kelley (Vice-President), M. Vene.si (President), M.

And just as much of a treat are the concoctions they whip up in the kitchen and the creations _ they stitch up on their Singers. • i ’hat’s because they’re members of the Home Economics Club. Professional models have told them what milady is wearing this season ; the director of the Academie Modeme has taught them the art of make-up; and movies specially prepared for future housewives have shown them how to coordinate all their do- mestic skills. Add to these advantages the expert counsel of Miss Kearney and Miss Smith, and you have a group of girls who know where they’re going and how. 25 FIRST ROW: C. Hassett, L. Johnson, H. Hilderbrand, C.

The art room abounds (I S with paper, from cardboard to tracing; pencils from HB to 6B; and paints, from gky- blue to mauve. When inspiration runs dry, there’s always the great outdoors or a visit to a Boston art school. Some of the artists are headed for professional careers, and others just like to draw.

Under Miss Ames’ careful management, The Bookworms’ library has grown apace until it y includes enough different volumes to suit the taste of the most discern- ing bibliophile. The annual Christmas party was full of fun and food, with Mr. Mac lending his support in the way of entertainment. Though not given to tooting its own horn, the Bookworms’ Club nevertheless offers its mem- bers a chance to enjoy both the time-tested classics and the latest best-selleis at probably the lowest price available anywhere. 27 FIRST ROW: M.

J IFLE Club members, while they have had their chances to drill holes through conventional paper tar- gets at meets and at the rifle range, preferred this year to test their marksmanship by hunting rats in assorted town dumps. Besides ridding the towns of a danger- ous menace, the boys developed the quick reflex action and deadly aim necessary to hit a moving target. The favorite weapon in this unique sport, say the experts themselves, was a .22 Martin Lever Action rifle. Practice gained in rat-chas- ing should go a long way toward making Mr. Meyers’ Rifle Club a top team. 28 FIRST ROW: F. Poulos, D. Klemperer, A. Freeman, S. Bliss, W. Reynolds, (Vice President), B.

HE Ski Club’s eternal prayers for snow were answered this year, but only i in the middle of College Board review sessions. Some ardent skiers took y off anyway for the snowy heights via the weekly snow train to North Con- way, while the rest meditated morosely on unused boots and poles. With Mr. Smith’s aid, the club was able to take advantage of speakers available to stay- at-home skiers. At several meetings there were movies of experts going perpetually down-hill with grace and speed, inspiring the viewers with hopes of achieving sim- ilar feats as soon as they came within grabbing distance of the next tow. 29 FIRST ROW: M.

C HE Dramatic Club again flourished under the guardianship of Mr. Mac and Betsy Rapport, its unanimously elected president. The yearly try- y outs, in which prospective members must present a dramatic skit or mon- ologue to be judged by the officers, were awaited with glee by the old mem- bers and with trepidation by the aspiring Barrymores. Trips to the legitimate theater were suggested to the members at various times during the year, and many went on their own initiative. Programs for the year consisted of several one-act plays as well as shorter dramatic entertainment given by members of the club. 30 FRONT ROW: J. Cameron; J. Carberg; B. Hill; C. Rogers; A.

Complicated apparatus like timing devices, f portrait attachments, varieties of flash bulbs and films, are much in evidence, and their relative merits are vigorously discussed. Mr. Clish presides over the darkroom and initiates amateurs into the mysteries of developing their own film. The club members displayed their talents this year by taking pictures of each other, with much attention directed toward problems of lighting, background, and pose. In the future, our photographers’ work may grace the covers of national magazines or the pages of family albums. 31 FIRST ROW: S. Carter, L. Tirrell, R. Kolouch, H. Gram, W. Swentor, T. Callaghan, J.

Word of the excellence of “The Song of Christmas” spread fast, and the Spring Concert was a sell-out, saving Mr. Net- tleton from having to “mortgage the Club,” as he had darkly threatened, to pay for the new roles. Belmont’s participants in the All-State Concert in February came home from Framingham spilling over with praises for everyone concerned. This was a phenomenally successful year for the Glee Club, thanks to its director, its officers, and its patient accompanists, Marjorie Sherman and Carol Whitford, not to speak of those diligent members who studied their music at home! 32 ■■■ FIRST ±vOW: P.

Although still small, the band managed to go through several new and novel routines — “Jingle Bells” from the North and “Dixie” from the South. Maybe the drum majorettes’ uniforms were at the cleaner’s for one game, but they proved they didn’t need them to steal the show. The band did its part in both the concerts, too, along with the embryo orchestra. Belmont will scon have one of the best bands in the state, what with new uniforms and Mr. Nettleton’s ambitious plans. 33 FIRST ROW: S. Angelo, D. O’Brien, J. Malocf, C. O’Sullivan (Treasurer), C.

Classical, semi-classi- cal, and popular music all had their proponents here, and Miss Anderson kept peace among them. The club is the source of those formally-gowned ushers at school concerts and the sponsor of the yearly song poll which eliminates in an afternoon on Bob Clayton’s Boston Ballroom. No sour note will ever escape these connoisseurs of music. 34 FIRST ROW: S. Carter, L. Tirrell, R. Kolouch, H. Gram, W. Swentor, T. Callagnan, J. Hodder. SECOND ROW: D. O’Brien, S. Midkiif, D.

So much enthusiasm was expressed at the idea of having a full-fledged choir that the project soon assumed grand propor- tions. Nearly forty Choir members scrambled out of bed every Friday morning to arrive in the bandroom promptly at eight. Difficult 8-part, a cappella music was undertaken almost immediately, and the group’s debut in the Christmas Concert met with instantaneous acclaim. By the Spring Concert of ’52, the Choir was newly robed in maroon and prepared to face any audience. Thus another of Mr. Nettleton’s “twin- kles”, with the help of that unique class of 1952, has a permanent place in B.H.S. 35 helmontiems club . . . FIRST ROW: L. Kerrigan, D. Livingston, B. Allen, R.

Difficulty in climbing up from gym is overlooked by the be-jewelled and be-spangled Belmontians, as well as by admiring onlookers. A tea for the senior members, complete with silver tea service and attractive pourers, was the year’s first function. The new junior and senior mem- bers were welcomed in an impressive candle- light initiation; at subsequent meetings, the full membership heard Miss Ann Turbini speak on Hawaii and saw some of their fel- low Belmontians model the latest styles. The highlight of the club’s year, of course, was the beautiful “Winter Wonderland” formal held in December. . red cross... angels of mercy OOKING in on Room 309, we see girls busy filling Christmas boxes to be sent overseas, making favors for hospital trays, pasting scrapbooks for children’s hospitals, sewing oilcloth ani- mals, and working on an afghan. Outside of school, the girls give their time at the Blood Donor Center or the Boston Lying-In-Hos- pital and also make cakes and cookies for Murphy Army Hospital. They certainly live up to their motto, “We serve.” 38 mr. iesiie crowson HE Vocational High School has passed through a year of diversification. v ' r Many students ere enrolled from the college and business courses for one or J two shop periods a week. Many others elected this course but due to schedule conflicts could not be enrolled. These periods gave the students in the aca- demic field an opportunity to diversify their education and explore varied interests in the mechanical field. The vocational program was also broadened and liberalized to meet the indi- vidual needs of the regular vocational students. Special mathematics and other aca- demic subjects were offered where the need warranted them. During this year much emphasis and effort were expended in developing the curriculum area of coopera- tive social, democratic living in our industrial society. The vocational boys continued to give valuable assistance to the maintenance force of the School Department as well as to the other town departments. A por- table altar for use at public ceremonies at the field on Concord Avenue was built by the wood shop. This shop also built a rostrum for use at the Amvets meetings. A great deal of the work done by the shops aided in mcderniizng the school plant and in completing the new Junior High School Gymnasium. The entire staff and student body found it a pleasure to work in the newly decorated shops and classrooms. These improvements inspired a motion picture of the day-to-day activities of the vocational school. This picture in which the entire cast has top billing chronicles some of our achievements and memories of ’52. To those who are leaving us may we say that there need be no limit to your achievement if you establish a high enough goal and show perseverance in striving toward this objective. 39 ' w w ■ i iVH V i V 1 3jj VOBBM « £2S3e5 X M PB 1 .

OACH “Mel” Wenner, with only a few experienced hold-overs, built up a hard- t hitting soccer squad which won every game played against high schools this year. y_ Although Belmont met with a few defeats at the hands of various “prep” schools, the BHS team always excelled in over-all spirit and aggressiveness. The high- light of the long and bitterly contested season was the victory over rival Medford in the last game. Mixer, Polese, and Hurley combined with Marsh, Freeman, and Beveridge to make up the forward line. The backfield consisted of such stand-outs as Cuneo, Jurigian, Miller, Johnson Dickhaut, and Leighton. The boys’ morale was always high and they considered it a great opportunity to play under such a fine coach as “Mel” Wenner. % 42 FIRST ROW: R. Jannoni, J. McNulty, J. Mayo, J. Gaziano, R.

After losing the opener to Norwood, the maroon and white bounced back to successive wins over Cambridge High and Latin and Framing- ham. The squad then fell victim to three undefeated teams, Taunton, Concord, and Win- chester. In the traditional Turkey Day game, the boys gave all they had but lost to a hard-fighting Watertown team. Co-captains Fred Carew and Bob Wardwell were standouts throughout the season, along with John Gaziano, Pete Poulos, Bob Corey, Sonny Breen, Rod Mosher, Dick Jannoni, Joe Mayo, John McNulty, and Jim Agahigian. 43 FIRST ROW: J.

They placed 3rd in the Pioneer Meet at Haverhill, 4th in the Middlesex League Meet at Tufts, and 4th in the State Meet at Franklin Park. Dick Willander won the most points for the team, with Dan Pennachio coming in a close second. 44 FIRST ROW: S. Bliss, P. Swaebe, G. Osborn, S. Glazier (Captain), M. Cogliani, J. Geggis.

They piled up a record unbeaten at B.H.S. this year. Although the opening game was lost to an undefeated Lexington, in the other five games Belmont easily topped her opponents. They even defeated Winches- ter, our greatest rival, for the first time in nine years. Captain Shirley Glazier was high scorer, and close seconds were Genevra Osborn, Mariann Cogliani, and Bebe Marsh, all on the forward line. Paula Swaebe and Janet Geggis defended the home goal with amazing effectiveness. 45 FIRST ROW: R. Piche, G. Campbell, J. McNulty, T. Kerr (Captain), R. Hurley, L. Baker, R. Marsh.

The trouble seemed to be weak defensive play, J for the Belmont five was the second highest scoring team in the loop. Captain Tom Kerr had some brilliant games to his credit and the team as a whole rose to heights traditional in Belmont basketball during the first half of the memorable Winchester game. The ultimate outcome of the season can perhaps be explained by the strain that is placed on any bunch of boys, however good, who have to live up to a long line of extra- ordinary teams. 46 FIRST ROW: R.

Speed and accuracy characterized Belmont’s playing under the ef- ficient coaching of Miss Cleary. Veterans from their sophomore year, Marylee Boyle, Beryl Bryant, Ann Canfield, Shirley Glazier, Geneva Grimes, Rosamund Moran, Genevra Osborn, and Pat Sullivan, made up the majority of the Va rsity. Other members of the team who helped make the record 4 wins, 2 losses were Joan Bonitz, Marilyn Boghosian, Faith Rohrbough, and Martha Dixon. The J. V.’s season was not quite so good as the Varsity’s, since they could boast only a 3-3 record. However, they gained some solid experience and next year can try to equal the 1952 record. 47 FIRST ROW: R. Jannoni, W. Scott, R. Wardwell, E. Kerr (Co-Captain), T. Sheehy (Co-Captain), M. Carlo, T.

The team spirit was tremendous all year long, and had Belmont gotten the S breaks in the two key games with Stoneham, they would have won. As far as the veteran members of the team were concerned, the outstanding triumph of the season was beating both Cambridge Latin and Newton for the first time in three years. The League coaches picked Tom Crowley, Tom Sheehy, and Walt Scott for the G.B.I. all stars. Ed Kerr and Dick Jannoni were named to the second team. The team wants to thank its hard working senior manager, Bob McMurray, and all its loyal supporters who followed it through defeat as well as success. 48 FIRST ROW : D. Pennachio, J. Gianino, G.

The boys themselves started the ball rolling when some of the members of the cross-country team who wanted to keep in trim during the winter asked about uniforms. Fifty boys appeared at the meeting that was called; 30 were uniformed on a trial basis. Since it was an informal affair, no team captain was elected. But even though the team wasn’t attached to any league, the Orchard Street practices got the team as far as a dual meet with Natick, the meet at Northeastern, and the State Meet in Boston Garden. In a few years, Coach Seaman thinks, indoor track could well rank with basketball as another big winter sport. 49 FIRST ROW: B. Bradford, A. Lapore, N. Beilis, G. Campbell, J. Mayo, R. Piche, J.

Coach Polly Harris had a large J aggregation of powerful hitters and nimble fielders to choose from. Among the veterans from last year were Bob Wardwell, Fred Carew, Dick Hobbs, Frank Napoli, and Walter Scott. Along with these boys were Greg Ashe, Larry Baker, Jules Wettlaufer, Ben Bradford, Joe Mayo, Bob Hickey, and Dave Beveridge. The members of the team set their sights on a good season, and they didn’t disappoint themselves or their rooters. 50 FIRST ROW: W. Reynolds, R. Clark, J. DeMeritt, N. Hazen, D.

In John McNulty, master of the high hurdles and the broad jump, and in mile runner Dany Pennachio. Coach Wenner had two hard workers. Captain Jannoni covered the hundred yard dash with ease, anl Dickie Willander, Cross Country co-cap- tain, steamed around on the half mile. Jimmy Polese and Nathan Hazen filled the bill in the 220 and the 440. Powerful Pete Poulos and big Jim Agahigian were the team’s able shot-putters. In the State Meet. Belmont kept pace in its field and upheld the tradition of all Coach Wenner’s fine track teams. 51 FIRST ROW: W. Kerr, T. Stitts, M. Stoller, T. Kerr (Captain), O. Johnson, S. Casson (Manager). tennis . . . J T was a tremendous year for “Pop” Nagle’s tennis team in spite of the fact that many of last year’s stalwarts graduated. Spearheaded by those “Kramerish” Kerr brothers, Belmont’s tennis team again led the league and entered some of its members in the State Tournament. Captain Tom Kerr played his usual good game and again captured his last year’s title of State Champion. “Pop” has kept his team on top so long now, that the law of averages is against him. But, it won’t hurt him as long as his teams continue to be so expert. 52 FIRST ROW: G. Sullivan, M. Boyle, G. Osborn, P. Sullivan (Captain). SECOND ROW: J. Riley, G. Parkhill, M. Beardsell, S. Glazier. girls ' tennis ■ — ■ HIS year the girls’ tennis team posed no problem for its capable coach, Miss Smith. With few exceptions, team members were veterans of two years who finished last season undefeated. It was a foregone conclusion that they would have another excellent record this year. Much credit is due Captain Pat Sullivan, the team’s No. 1 player, but every girl was an important part in the unit which played top-notch tennis in its series of matches against Wellesley, Winchester, Melrose, Lexington, Concord, Winthrop, and Arlington. 53 FIRST ROW: R.

For under the expert direction of Coach Cowing, f f the boys made a very good showing for themselves against such teams as + Arlington, Cambridge High and Latin, Lexington, and Rindge Tech. Returning as co-captains this year were veterans Gene McElroy and Jack Ross. Both played their consistently fine game all season. The sophomore and junior mem- bers of the squad contributed a great deal to the success of the group, making prospects for next year’s team look good. 54 FIRST ROW: R. Kiley, S. Elso, J. Bucit.

After 2 i weeks of hard work outside the J high school, the girls moved to the Concord Ave. field. The first game came even sooner than expected — May 5. Shirley Glazier and Janet Miller were really great as pitchers; Janet Geggis was about the only catcher who could flip the ball from home plate to second base. The distance from the mound to home plate has been changed from 38’ to 40’, but the team pitched, fielded and batted as skillfully as ever. 55 m - J r PNk -I «L i ■E ps l ,r xTTM i TB .

H. S. Much of our success we owe to Mr. ■ r who from the first moment he stepped in front of us as our adviser, was the inspi- ration and the force behind the class. Our officers, Dick Marsh, Marylee Boyle, Bob Giroux ior two years and then Bob Ward- wen, and Janie .Doherty for the last two years, spent innumerable hours planning tne unique affairs tnat made our class fa- m.uus. let the history of a class is the his- tory of every individual in it. .Nothing could have oeen accompiisned without the enthu- siasm, the cooperation, and even the com- piamis of tne unsung members of the class. From the beginning, back in our uncer- tain sophomore days, we made headlines; the Mid-Century Sophomore Hop was the first smashing sophomore success ever seen. As we contemplated our overflowing coffers, we had visions of building up a fund big enough to cover most of our senior expenses. In the fall of our junior year, our reputation — and our treasury — was established by the amazing Vaudeville Pops, probably the most impressive spectacle we ever presented. We were the “fabulously different” class, with the get-up-and-go, the perseverance, and the profits. “Now and Then”, gigantic musical revue employing more than a hun- dred actors and stagehands, lived up to its advance notices. The bright tags, by then familiar to everyone, dangled from bags, belts, books and bulletin boards and con- firmed us as advertising experts. It’s hard to remember that in the midst of all the ’52 triumphs we were plugging away at routine homework, griping about exams, becoming acquainted with Mr. Ko- louch’s office, and waxing indignant over sundry affairs. The “Star” came out more or less regularly, exciting a brief flurry of comment; report cards, disarmingly colored yellow, pink, and blue, were transported sad- ly home. Vacations, especially those called on account of large snowfalls and teachers’ conventions, caused loud hallelujahs. Through gripes and rejoicings, there was always some kind of sport going on, and we were well represented on every team from track to tennis. We’ll never forget our first football rally, when we sat on the floor and looked and listened and cheered, with amazement and growing pride at the spirit of B.H.S. We’ll never forget the treks into the Tech Tourney, either, or those hectic bus rides to other towns. After laboring happily over the plans for the 1951 prom, it seemed just as much ours as our own senior prom. Every year went faster than the previous one, and prac- tically before we’d put our formals away we were back in school as seniors. It was strange to find youthful sophomores looking at us with the same awe with which we re- garded the seniors two years before. All of a sudden, we were wondering w T here to go next, what college, what job. Our class was still setting the pace. The Sophomore Reception, another ’52 in- spiration which deserves to become a B.H.S. tradition, brought more than 80% of the sophomore class, equipped with compli- mentary tickets, to meet our untiring officers. As for the Senior Play — well, when “Mother Is a Freshman”, there’s bound to be trouble, especially when mother is Liz Quine! Bring Wendy Koch into the picture as a handsome, moonstruck professor, add Betsy Rapport as the sophomore daughter with a crush on the Prof., and you’ve got not only the eternal triangle but the best senior play in many a year. All the ele- ments of a really first-class production were there: comedy, villainy, and romance, Mr. Mac’s inspired direction, and a large, enthu- siastic house. After the curtain was low- ered reluctantly, the stars stood beaming 58 over their orchids at their equally beaming friends and congratulators. In December, Belmontians and their es- corts, less dazzling but quite as handsome and certainly indispensable, emerged m glit- tering splendor and high spirits for the an- nual pre-Christmas formal, the “Winter Wonderland”. We managed to pull ourselves through mid-years with the encouraging thought that they were the last exams we had to take in high school. But after briefly relax- ing at the Student Council’s “Frosty Frolic,” some of us were plunged into review for college boards, and we all realized that theie were more report cards still to come. Another milestone in our high school careers was passed in February — the Queen of Hearts Dance. Our old stand-by, Bob Donanue and his orchestra clad in conserva- tive navy-blue suits with shocking-pink ties, sent melodious strains through the cafe, unrecognizable as the place where we ate 540 lunches in our three years at B.H.S. As the season arrived when plans for graduation exercises get underway and young men’s fancies turn to thoughts of baseball, we felt as though we had one foot in high school and one foot in an unknown future. At the same time that we chafed at the bit and looked forward to gradua- tion, we remembered our school years a little nostalgically. The halls were so familiar that the confusion of our first weeks there seemed incredible. And as we recalled our antics in class, we decided that our teachers had been remarkably patient and that we’d learned more than we had realized at the time. So much of our fun was associated with B.H.S. and the kids we knew there. We made the most of our last couple of months, coming home from the Prom in the wee hours of the morning, going on jaunts to Crane’s Beach, enjoying the sound of our names being called at Award Day, Letter Day, and Class Day, and finally at gradua- tion when we walked up to receive our diplomas from Mr. Higginbottom. Another class, the class of 1952, had graduated. B.H.S. had left its mark on us and we had left ours on B.H.S. last wiil and testament . . . Brad MacCormack leaves his European remi- niscences to posterity. Joan Harvey and Doreen Lorentzen leave Latin 4 to other devoted students of the classics. Bill Swentor leaves his handy wit-sharpener to anyone foolhardy enough to use it. Liz Quine leaves glowing accounts of sunny California to all rock-bound New Englanders. A1 Hurd leaves his guitar and his favorite say- ings to John Putnam. Bill Reynolds does not leave his magic tricks to anyone, because they’re trade secrets. Jane McGonagle leaves her numerous talents to about ten other people. Mr. Meyers’ fond departing students leave him a life-time subscription to the “Readers Digest ” Sylvia Boyd leaves her old science fiction mag- azines (“If”, “Strange Worlds”, “Astounding!” and such) to Robert Sproul. His victims leave Mr. Kolouch a pair of roller skates. Johanna Springer leaves to go back to Ger- many, leaving us with a sense of loss. Dick Marsh leaves his title of “Pres” to Jim Buckley, and Mr. Brule’s abstractions to anyone who understands ’em. Sympathizers leave Mr. Lincoln a new bubbler for the second floor to keep English from getting dry. We sorrowfully leave Mr. “B” to some other lucky class in the far distant future. Barbara Brace and Sally Midkiff leave their respective columns to next year’s news-hounds. Tom Kerr leaves tennis to Bill. 60 We leave the passage through which students are not allowed to go to other inquisitive souls. Ex-science students leave the chemistry department a dozen large- economy-size bottles of air-wick for “scentimental” reasons. This year’s football team leayes next year’s boys a tank, a machine gun, a bunch of hand grenades — and Watertown. Depressed possessors of Ameri- can accents leave head colds to all French students so they can pro- nounce those nasals better. We leave a five-point program for the improvement of the cafe- teria : 1. Install a jumbo TV set. 2. Serve pizza. 3. Build a soda fountain. 4. Put comfortable red leather cushions on all seats. 5. Lengthen the lunch period to an hour to allow time for en- joying the splendor. We all leave B.H.S., half eagerly, half regretfully, with a hope that it will survive in our absence.

We’re slim and blonde and dark and lean We glow all year with summer tan All lovely as a movie queen And handsome as her leading man. Our friendly smiles light up each hall Our cheery greetings sally forth Thus each of us is known to all From gym to math, from south to north. For every grueling sport we train “Have mercy,” poor opponents wail We fight with all our might and main Athletic prowess tells the tale. For loyalty and gaiety For daring, pep, and enterprise For most originality — In every field we cop the prize. Our marks are tops from Sept, to June Such brilliance brightens teachers’ eyes Those dull week-ends can’t end too soon They always say with joyous cries. Pet peeves are tests and stuck up girls The type who’s wrong but won’t agree Arrogant males and tintair curls Stuffed olives and solemnity. Two favorites both begin with “B” Beefsteak and William Bettencourt Plus music, dancing, things for free And fun and games of any sort. We’re doctors, lawye rs, engineers Professors, actors by the score Good secretaries and cashiers Future mothers and dads galoi ' e. Mechanics and generals both abound Perhaps a warlike Indian Chief But no Legree complete with hound And nary a beggar or a thief. In fact we’ll each attain some fame Tack that first million on the wall Along with tribute in a frame “To B.H.S. I owe it all.” 65 Joseph Alibrandi 11 Concord Avenue Betty Lane Allen 3 Myrtle Street Belmontian Club 3; Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Choir 3; Music Club 1, 3; Musical Comedy 2; Ski Club 3; Art Club 3 (Program Chair- man).
