JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY 1948-1949 At the start of our Junior year the class elected Armand Caldeira, president, Joan Plaza, vice-president, secretary, Barbara Duke, and Louis Rome, treasurer. One of the highlights of the year was The Meddlesome Maid, the annual Junior play with Armand Caldeira, Nancy Cawte, Edward Gundersen, Emily Machholz, Beverly Manion, Louis Rome, Nathan Rome, Winnie Willoughby, Ann Nicolle, and William Velhage as the cast. Committee for choosing the class ring comprised Frank Burnham, Armand Caldeira, Edward Gundersen, Ann Nicolle, Theresa Chiarizia, and Winifred Willoughby. Another highlight of the year, which was the first of its kind in B. H. S., was the HeIIzapoppin' Show, which was planned by Theresa Chiarizia and Ann Nicolle. Several members of the Junior Class were admitted into the Honor Society. Nancy Cawte, Theresa Chiarizia, Gracemarie Harley and William Velhage were the ones who received this honor. The Student Council members from our class were Nathan Rome, Vice-president, Barbara Duke, Secretary-Treasurer, Ann Nicolle and Armand Caldeira. The business club with thirteen members from the Junior Class, elected Theresa Chiarizia as Vice-president and Lois Pinney as Treasurer. The Girls' Athletic Association, the school's largest club, elected Isabelle Baldwin, Vice-president. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The fall of 1949 and we returned for the last time to the halls of B.H.S. lt didn't seem possible, but yet here we were - Seniors at last. After having been in school for a few weeks, our first class meeting was held under the leadership of Mr. Pearlmutter, our advisor for three consecutive years. Our class officers were elected as follows: Leon Barnard-President, Louis Rome-Vice-President, Mary Magna-Secretary, and Armand Caldeira-Treasurer. At a later meeting our class colors, motto, and flower were chosen. Our Hower was to be the red carnation while our colors were green and gold and our motto ln ourselves our future Iies. Much tribute was paid to our outstanding soccer team who were runners-up for the state championship. Seniors on the team included: Captain Armand Caldeira, Scott Rome, and Dan Louro. On November 23, our varsity cheerleaders gave the student body their opportunity to pay their respect to the team by presenting a sports dance. The senior cheerleaders on the committee were Captain Lois Pinney, Joan Plaza, Marie Williams, Dot Prystula, Emily Machholz, and Catherine D'Addeo. Lois Pinney and Armand Caldeira were elected king and queen of sports. The faculty vs. varsity in a ghost basketball game was played off in the gym on December 9. The proceeds were for a worthy cause -- THE TATTLER. As part of the Christmas Assembly, members of the senior class presented a one act comedy under the direction of Miss Zabriskie. The cast included: Lillian Roth, Catherine D'Addeo, Nancy Cawte, Ted Harger, Bill Velhage, Armand Caldeira, and Paul Petersen. On January 20 a few more worthy seniors displayed their talent in a comedy, Why Shakespeare Wept written by Miss York. The seniors included: Isabelle Baldwin, Edward Gundersen, Armand Caldeira, Arthur Pappagallo, George Perry, Bill Lotz, Terry Chiarizia, and Gracemarie Harley. Other seniors included Ann Nicolle, Louis Rome and Danny Louro. These and the many memories of the Senior Banquet, Junior-Senior Prom, Class Night, and Graduation all make the history of our Senior year a pleasant one. LILLIAN ROTH 19
