Science Fair was dominated by the incumbent grand prize winner, Westinghouse Science Talent Search finalist, and winner of numerous other local, regional, and state contests, PAUL VIITA. Seniors Don Mavrides, Paul Whittemore, and Dana Hard, along with lone sophomore winner John Lanza, triumphed in the open, chemistry, physics, and biology categories respectively. However, all who participated, whether they won prizes or not, gained not so much in recognition but rather in the scientific training and knowledge acquired in doing the projects.

Tennis has not been a strong sport at Braintree High, but our boys have always managed to do well, especially when we consider the rigid competition of the Bay State League. And with only seven p ositions available within the squad, the competition has become even stiffer. Maybe the Davis Cup doesn’t seem that far away now.

Faster than the speed of lightning, able to leap tall buildings (well, almost), more physically adept than Batman was the B.H.S. track team. Whether it wcs springing over the pole into the sawdust pit or hurling the weighty shotput or sprinting in the foot races, the boys excelled. And with their setting records at nearly every meet, we were not surprised to learn that they maintained the Bay State championship. COME ON NOW, SIT UP AND BEG !

SS22 The year 1966 was an important one for Braintree’s future secretaries. Thirty-three charter members were installed in the Braintree High School Chapter of the Future Secretaries Association, a unit sponsored by the Quincy South Shore Chapter of the National Secretaries Association. The Braintree group, second high school chapter in the state, is the pioneer chapter in this area. Most FSA members are stenographic students — all take the business course. The Braintree FSA group boasts several members who have surpassed the com- parable record of college shorthand students. Several FSA members have also been elected to the National Honor Society.

The purpose of the course is to build the student’s reading power in order that he may meet increasing academic demands. Course content includes: testing, controlled reading, timed reading comprehension checks, perception reading, timed practice, vocabulary building, and multi-level reading as- signments.

Student Exchange The Student Exchange, sponsored by Mr. Wendell Bartholomew of the Social Studies department, was climaxed on March 21 when five representatives and a faculty adviser from Woburn High met their exchange counterparts in the Main Building of B.H.S. Five smiling Wamps led their Woburn friends on a tour of B.H.S. Following a panel discussion over coffee and a brief visitation to classes, student exchange representatives, faculty advisers, and a photojournalist embarked on a scenic tour of our fair town of Braintree. After lunch at Tivoli the troupe made its way to Thayer House, Armstrong Cork, and the Town Hall where the town clerk presented a prelude to the first session of the annual town meeting. After dinner at Valle’s the group headed for the Town Hall to observe democracy in action. OUR PHOTOJOURNALIST SS3I June, 1966 represents the end of an era! The year 1935 marked the founding of the B.H.S. yearbook, THE WAMPATUCK, under the sponsorship of Paul V. Toolin and Constance F. Stecher. Class President Edward J. Sullivan gave the initial boost needed to launch the project among his classmates with Martha Enos as the first editor. Thirty-one years of growth has seen many changes in the appearance of The Wampatuck since that first attempt. During this period of time Miss Stecher, Head of the English department, has planned, guided, nursed, and executed the publication of the annual for the benefit of each successive graduating class. Now it seems expedient that someone else should devote the time and shoulder the responsibility. So with the publication of this summer supplement to the 1966 yearbook, supported by co-editors Dorothy Yep and Evelyn Torrey, Miss Stecher is turning over the task of putting out the 1967 publication to Mrs. Janet Haas who joined the English department in February of this year. Miss Stecher takes this opportunity to wish each succeeding senior class the best of success in the publication of each issue of THE WAMPATUCK in the years to come. JAMES T.

EQUIPPED ONLY WITH IMAGINATION AND DETERMINATION, EACH OF US PREPARED TO ENDURE AND TO PERSEVERE. WE HAD TO LEARN TO ORGANIZE EFFICIENTLY; WE HAD TO REALIZE THAT DEADLINES WERE MEANT TO BE KEPT. FREQUENTLY WE HAVE BEEN EXALTED AND FRUSTRATED AT THE SAME TIME, SINCE THIS WAS AN ENTIRELY NEW KIND OF RESPONSIBILITY. VOILA! HERE, THEN, IS THE PRODUCT OF OUR MOMENTS OF INSPIRATION AND OF TRIBULATION. MAY THE WAMPATUCK BE DISTINCTLY YOUR PERSONAL YEARBOOK. THESE WERE THE WAMPS THAT WERE These were the Wamps that were: The class which came with much to learn And left with much to remember — The class which inherited not only knowledge But a vivid impression of high school life — Not just of countless books and weekly tests, Of study halls and office sessions; But also of crucial games and hard-won trophies, Of tournaments and sports assemblies. For high school is more than just learning and working. Cutting classes and duty-shirking; It’s forming friendships and knowing heartaches And tracing doodles inscribed on desks. It’s a time for laughing, a time for thinking, A time for planning, yet a time for remembering — Remembering teachers and lunchroom chaos; Remembering students rushing to class; Remembering romances, dances, and Proms; And remembering years with the Wamps that were. Twa YEARS FROM NOW, WHETHER COMMUTING ON THE MONORAIL OR DIVING FOR PEARLS IN THE SEA OF JAPAN, WE SHALL REMINISCE ABOUT OUR HIGH SCHOOL DAYS. WE WILL RECALL WALKING INTO THE WRONG CLASS OR VYING FOR A POSITION IN THE BOOSTER-SHOT LINES . . . BUT WE WILL ABOVE ALL REMEMBER OUR SEARCH FOR SOME OF THE ANSWERS TO LIFE. OUR GENERATION BOUNCES FROM ONE EXTREME TO ANOTHER; WE WANT TO BE COMMITTED —BUT COMMITTED TO WHAT? FOR SOME, THE SOLUTION LIES IN SUCH MATTERS AS CIVIL RIGHTS; FOR OTHERS, IN SUCH PROFOUND ISSUES AS THE EXTENSION OF LUNCH PERIODS. EACH INDIVIDUAL MUST SEEK FOR HIMSELF THE ANSWERS. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CHEAT, FOR THERE ARE NO ANSWERS IN THE BACK OF THE BOOK.’’ BUT WHEREVER WE EXPLORE, THERE IS A UNIVERSAL MAP: THE ABILI’TY TO LAUGH AT ONE’S SELF. THIS IS OUR THEME— T W 3.

Barrett Almeda W. Cain John D. Callahan William Filene Jr. Robert T. Smart Superintendent of Schools William F. Young Assistant Superintendent Carmen P. Rinaldi WOMEN IN ACTION BUSINESS UNDERWAY SUPERINTENDENT The progressive changes that have occurred in our society are a tribute to the untiring efforts of good men and women to im- prove that which has often been retarded or nearly destroyed through the greed, bigotry and selfishness of others. Sometimes the turning point has come with the work of a single man or woman possessed with the desire to do God’s will. Man himself is a paradox and about the direction of his life he must be personally concerned. High School is usually the time when one’s personal battle is fought and won. Either you work on the world’s problems or you become one. ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT Erich Fromm has said, The majority of men are suggest- ible, half-awake children, willing to surrender their will to any- one who speaks with a voice that is threatening or sweet enough to sway them ...” It has been one of the purposes of education to present to you a plausible and coherent vision of the past, present and future. Education has further attempted to give each individual a capacity for comprehending all values, but thus far has given you only a narrow body of facts and knowledge. In some small measure your sights have been elevated so that you are able to exercise your free will and become thinking, rational beings. Although mankind has been likened to sheep, it has been our purpose to stimulate, provoke and even to inspire. You will always be confronted with decisions and choices. Be a visionary! Your educational experiences have taken you only to the threshold of life and learning. I congratulate you on having passed through this threshold” and wish for your future that the intellectual landscape will light up and reveal its secrets; that you will learn to see with ever more perfect eyes; that you will con- sciously apply yourselves to LIVING. PRINCIPAL OF BRAINTREE HIGH SCHOOL Today we hear a great deal about my rights”. Seldom do we hear anything about my obligations”. It seems to me that when we inquire concerning our rights as adults we must, at the same time, consider what are our adult obligations. As you go through life and face up to its trials, tribulations and vicissitudes, I am sure that you and all with whom you deal will fare well when you consider your obligations along with your rights.

CAMPBELL Secretary to Mr. Hjelm Barry Secretarial School SECRETARIES Overworked, underrated; overblamed, underpraised; overbur- dened, underhelped . . . these are our secretaries. Their day begins early in the morning when students and teachers alike start clumping into the office. When cries of Help! I can’t find my Interrel notebook!” and Where can I put this guitar for safe-keeping?” and Haven’t you typed up those nine hundred sheets?” madly mingle and do not cease until late in the afternoon. How can they stand us and listen so patiently while we stamp our feet and demand the impossible? ’They have done the impossible. And we are grateful. OUR GENIAL GUIDANCE SECRETARY English Analyse the moral implications of the first ninety-three and two sevenths pages of Oedipus and in 25 words or less tell the major problems of the characters — Be specific. This must be turned in, typewritten, in Gothic type only, on -3x5 note- cards. Since that should take only fifteen or twenty minutes, you may also write a ten stanza epic poem in the style of J. D. Salinger.”- We all scrawled some such unusual English assignments on bookcovers and gave weak excuses the next day about hungry guinea pigs devouring the essay. Somehow we learned where semi-colons are used, and just what constitutes a reasonable grammatical sentence, as well as how to bluff one’s way through a thesis on a book which remained unread. Margins were exactly one inch wide and the word ain’t” was squelched, with the nearly vain, ever valiant efforts of the English department.

Near the end of the period we’ll have a brief quiz with the thirteen essay questions on current events, what have you. Oh yes — don’t forget; those term projects on the link between the Jacksonians and the Transcendental ists are due tomorrow, too ...” If a student is plucky enough to survive, he will discover that his courses in American History and Problems of Democracy or International Rela- tions have given him much insight into the affairs of men. ' Then, too, understanding the government and tradi- tions of the other guy” helps the individual to coexist peaceably with his fellowmen. T BETSY A. SHUSTER BETSY A. SHUSTER MidlfebPry Col ' . A.B.

Although it takes a while to adjust to the fast records and tapes, eventually one does learn to respond Me llamo Juan” or Pebe bebe leche” without two much trouble.

This lever seems to do something The next easy question Industrial Arts You name it — they have it! This year the Industrial Arts Department has something new — a few daring girls who sit on the stools and draw pictures of squares. Perhaps even they can tell you how to draw a square peg in a round hole ! There still remain a few courses inhabited by the superior sex only. Such courses as drafting, woodworking, metalworking, and printing, electronics provide opportunities for boys (and brave girls) to fight the machine age with precision planning. Whether they make a bookshelf or finish repairing an old car, they show proficient skill in their fields. Perhaps they are best able to define a Precision Lathe — until they do, it’s a secret. Home Economics Help! I stitched my finger! How to make a dress without really trying. First you take 5 yards of cotton cloth and wrap it around your waist, then bring it up gently over your shoulder and around your neck over your other shoulder. This may now be secured with safety pins. The name of this fashion ? The Sari ! Now to the store room. In the little units of stove, sink and cabinet, the home economics class learn to best find the way to a man’s heart. With results ranging from burned apple struddle to scholarships in the Betty Crocker Homemaker’s Contest, each girl does her best to make an edible free meal each day. The weight-conscious girl can even fix meals to order in Dietetics class, and usually they’re a great deal better than the Metrecal Diet for Astronauts. A stitch in time saves 9 yards of cloth. Gitchy-Gitchy Goo. Art Pretty funny, eh ! A palm tree, huh? Yeah ... a poster for the play. No, we haven’t forgotten about the backstage scenery, but good grief ! — we are busy working on our own masterpieces.” The Art department is an em- porium where all sorts of maddening demands come pouring in. Art students are responsible for the school displays, dance and prom decorations, and stage scenery. When not besieged by projects, they com- pete (and sometimes win) in national contests. With its wide assortment of materials the department pro- vides for many interesting creations — besides offering a field in which to gain a c redit painlessly. A credit for your school and a Picasso (well, almost?) for your bedroom wall. 26 Music Can you play Tico Tico” on the Bongo Drums? The Skater’s Waltz” on the trumpet? Or Java” on the bass fiddle? Or does your great musical genius enable you to perform an orig- inal rendition of Chopsticks” on the mandolin? Whatever your skill, if it is professional enough to be a part of the BHS band or orchestra, directed by Mr. Arthur P. Hauck, it’s got to be good. Perhaps your skills are so great that you need no instrument; the golden tones of your magnificent voice will bring down the house ! If so, you have probably been a member of one or more BHS vocal organizations, directed this year by Mrs. Natalie Stovold. There are the Boys’ Glee Club, Crescen- does, Choir, Girls’ Quartette, and Girls’ Glee Club in which you may harmonize popular, classical, or unclassified music. Excuse me, could I have two wads of cotton while you’re pass- ing them out? 27 Project research. Library Who wrote ToNo-B ingay? Eeek! . . . Has any- one seen a copy of Who’s Who in Tijuana? I told you Nietzche was a misanthropist . . A motley assortment of questions and book- checking madness characterize the typically-quiet day at either the Hollis or Main library. Students surrender study periods to aid steelnerved li- brarians, and receive as awards the library service pin and guard. Within the bookcases, filing cab- inets, and cubbyholes is a lucrative mass of over 8,000 books, current pamphlets, newspapers, and magazines, all of which provide sources for reports and research papers as well as for pure pleasure and enlightenment. In September the inner workings of the card catalogues and Dewey Decimal System are explained during library orientation week. How do you find Winnie the Poo?” Is it under Alice” or Wonderland”? 28 Health Can I help you? So you don’t feel well. Lie down, take your shoes off, but first fill out this form, and this one, and this one too! Okay, what’s your temperature? Boy, that’s high. You wait until I have my lunch and then I’ll call your mother to pick you up. What? You say you have a rash on your stomach — that’s spreading? And your eyes hurt? Well, I can’t make a diagnosis, but I do suggest you go home and see a doctor. He can tell you if it is really measles. All I can say is that you seem to be getting a rash. Oh, by the way, what’s your tele- phone number? And where is your locker? Take this slip to the office and wait at the front door for the taxi.” Health Physical Education In Physical Education, students are forced to over- come their uncoordination, and to maintain a sense of fair play. As long as they make an attempt to run the track, do back-breaking exercises (one m7ist destroy the myth of American obesity), follow the rules, and never do anything better than the teacher, they pass. For the student who relishes ramming into others, or smashing balls over a net, there are varsity sports — such as football and tennis — , stu- dent leader clubs, and intramurals. Anyone else may get aching muscles by simply watching the athletes. But overall, aside from the agony of shower and gym suits, physical education is designed to show students that physical fitness is not a drag, not just fifteen pushups daily, but fun, and maybe only fourteen push-ups daily. I sure hope someone can stop the blood! Three registration papers; a last testament, what else? Dr, Barnes in operation! Is that tight enough Physical Education 29 Audio-Visual Keepers of order. Our own Mrs. Kipp. The A-V department is noted for its organization. Of course, sometimes a filmstrip about the Three Billy Goats Gruff” is sent to a biology teacher ... or a recording of Calvin Coolidge’s Inaugural Speech in Swahili is routed to a physics class. But blame the mysterious hand-writing of the teachers! It’s agonizing enough not to know where to send the film, but it’s even worse not to know what is being ordered! Even with all these brain twisters, however, Mr. Ward keeps the staff entertained with his baritone renditions of the latest songs while planning his debut at the Met. PT, I JUST WASHED MY SUIT LAST SUMMER Athletics LOC KOaf Track and cross country, football, basketball, baseball, softball, tennis, field hockey, hockey, golf, soccer, wrestling, gyiunastics, intramurals, rifle club — whew! You name it; Braintree High has it. That is, everything except . . . mountain climbing . . . safari hunting . . . lion training . . . snake charming . . . Oh, well, Mr. Herget, director of athletics, will work on getting those. Students who use up their energies after school by running a dozen laps around the track or playing jokes on gym teachers find a deep sense of satisfaction. At the end of the year, certificates, letters, and special trophies are awarded. For those who are not satisfied, however, snakes can be bought whole- sale from India . . . Guidance Linda, what is so funny? Problems ? Sob Stories ? Complexes ? With a book of Freudian analyses and a couch one can transform the B. H. S. Guidance office into a psychiatrist’s den. Girls may confide in Miss Ruth Strout, Dean of Girls, and senior girls’ counselor. During study periods students may saunter into the office and browse among the college catalogs.

Though both unpro- nounceable and unspellable, the Cutsha- mokin is highly readable. In the past two years, two editions have already been turned out, showing the various literary talents of future Faulkners and Heming- ways. Chief Kathy Diggins and her tribe patiently read all the poems, plays, stories, and essays submitted, and gently criticize or cut here and there. If it took two years for students to learn how to spell its name, it will take an age before the BHS literary magazine is forgotten. Literature ? It’s not even spelled right!

Obviously, this salesman never profited from the BHS Distributive Education Course. Here, he would have learned salesmanship, merchandising, retailing, arithmetic, color and line, display, and advertising. Whereas the unfortunate student mentioned above might have spent afternoon in session for playing hooky, the DECA students get paid to go into on-the-job training. Display work with Manikins Debate That person walking down the corridor with briefcase, filebox, blue- book, and mumbling some gibberish about compulsory arbitration being unconstitutional is headed for a debate meeting. In addition to being now a member of two leagues, Braintree also attends various speech and debate clinics. Highlights of the year include tournaments, such as the one at Dartmouth where the students captured several awards. For sharpening the wit and polishing spontaneous speech, there is nothing like a good, vehement debate. NATIONAL L_ HONOR SOCIETY The National Honor Society, contrary to popular opinion, is not just a group of a select few who just happen to be smart. The Braintree chapter is a service organization. If not racing to the information desk, N.H.S. members are usually tutoring other students or begging and borrowing hangers for the cloakroom. With a little bit of hard work and a car-load of clothes hangers, you, too, may become a member of the National Honor Society. National Honor Society Dramatics Places everyone! Now lets go through scene 3 again with no scripts and no. promoters; after all there are only a few days until showtime . . . This year the dramatics club was in full swing with their usual splendid productions produced by the Thespians which consists of the more experienced members of the club. Members this year gained more experience in production, direc- tion, set designing, lighting, costuming, publicity and theater management. Field trips were taken and a good time was had by all. THE DRAMA ON STAGE Stage Crew The house lights dim to half and hold, then go out completely. The music swells and the curtains open. The audience is transported into a basement apart- I ment in Greenwich Village where sunlight and I sounds come through the window . . . I The audience applauds the actors, yet they never ap- plaud the technical skills and labor which go into our j productions. While Eileen and Ruth try to force six I Brazilian sailors out of their apartment, the stage I crew is adjusting spots, preparing to drop the curtain, I getting props into position, and pushing frightened actors out onto the set. Surely the stage crew deserves a good deal of the thundering applause which follows every BHS dra- matic production. French National Honor Society French Club Les douze etudiants qui sont membres k de cette societe sont proud to wear the pin which symbolizes their high aca- demic achievement. Their ambitious meetings include activities such as tak- ing part in concours, quizzes, tutoring less successful eleves en francais, and in putting up bulletin boards and other services which they rendent a I ' ecole. The officers, M. Julian, Mile. Tressler, Mile, Stanley, et Mile. Linden, keep the - meetings well-planned and organized. ! All the Seniors serve on the conseil of the French Club. At the end of the year i deserving students hope to get one of the scholarships given by the Cercle Francais when they, continue their study of French in college. Meanwhile, Mile. Bordewieck will keep the organization well-supplied with typewritten informa- tion for meetings and activities. The members plan to finish the year with a trip to a theater and a meal Chez Jean.” I Faites attention! La Reunion mensuelle du Cercle Francais commencera dans la grande salle a huit heures et sept. II y aura beaucoup de choses interessantes pour vous amuser. Such an announcement signals the members of the French Club to put on their best French facades, gather up their nasal” vowels, and se depecher to a meeting. From then on, anything may happen; the French etudiants may chanter Le Marseillaise,” watch rabbits come out of hats, play cards, have a deuzieme College Bowl, view petite plays, visiter Paris in films, ecouter some concerts, examine calendar towels, or sometimes conduct business. In the afternoon they play French games, eat, enjoy a visit from Santa, eat, see films, eat, watch longer plays, eat, or manger des soucettes. Between meetings the students etudient bien le francais in order to mieux comprendre the comments of M. Payne, le president. J.C.L. INDUCTION Junior Classical League Some kid in a nightgown? Running around the track with a torch? Uh-huh. He took a bird-bath to school? Sure, sure. They sing ' T Wanna Hold Your Hand” in some crazy foreign language? . . . oh, it’s the Junior Classical League members! To recreate the atmosphere of the good old days of ancient Rome, students wear togas, perform Little Red Riding Hood” in Latin, sing Latin-ized Christmas carols. In the spring, students attend the State Con- vention; in the summer, some fortunate members attend the Na- tional Convention. It’s quite obvious that Caesar and Cicero and Virgil missed some good times. J@L ”1116 League An Olympic victory Future Teachers I Whether you want to teach kindergarten, I elementary grades, or high school the Future I Teachers’ Club holds some interest for you. I The club sponsored by Miss Halloran is for I sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Sometime I during the year each member is allowed to I visit a school in Braintree for a day. Not I only does the future teacher watch new I methods of teaching, he or she actually takes I part in classroom activities. On meeting days, I which are once a month, teachers from I different grades visit and relate their ex- I I periences or the members learn some of I the standard chores of all teachers. The prin- I • ciple aims of the club are to instill a desire and enthusiasm for teaching and to provide I an opportunity for students to discuss ques- I tions related to the profession. i i i Future Nurses Need a tissue or band-aid or a bit J of T. L. C. ? Just go to the health ' room and ask one of BHS’s Future Nurses. The girls are getting some practical experience (at our ex- pense. ) towards a career in nursing. Under the direction of Mrs. Burling in the health room, they work in clinics, view films, visit hospitals in open house days, hear guest speakers, and work on projects for the Jimmy Fund and other organ- izations. t Library Smash! go the bookworms. Scrape! goes Miss Gerrish, climbing up the walls and going quietly insane.” Sssh! go the library staffers — stamp ! go the cards. For intellectuals and serious-minded students, for study-hall escapers, the library is a perfect sanctuary. Office Staff When the switchboard lights up like a Christmas tree, when a horde of teachers tromp in to demand that errands be done, when the telephone buzzes insistently, that is when the office staff is indispen- sable. Girls work here during var- ious study periods, and they stuff mail into boxes or stamp passes or spin the roll-a-dex. In fact they are unpaid secretaries because they, too, have to put up with the jokes of the Big Bosses.” The rooms have no shades . . the film is shown in reverse ... the projectors break down, and the tape splits ... the wrong movies are sent to the right classes and the right movies are sent to the wrong classes . . . But somehow the A-V staff manages to straighten out these minor details. Bulbs are replaced, and films are scotchtaped. After all, the show must go on. Audio-Visual 51 Math Club One, two, three, three and a half, four . . . even if you can’t count this far, you can still join the Math Club. You don’t have to be a mathematical wizard. But if you are fascinated by parabolas, if you are the type that solves trigo- nometric problems in your sleep, you can join the Math Club and take tests for a position on the Math Team. When you are on the team, it does matter whether or not you can count past four, since you will compete with other schools and their budding Einsteins. It also helps if you know Euclidean geometry, analytic geometry, calculus . . . Photography Club During the president’s lecture today we will discuss the operation of the speed-i graphic; use of the enlarger; the basic, fundamentals of picture-taking; the me- chanics of cameras; the physical phenom- enon of light in response to mechanismst of photography; the ability to adjust: mechanical apertures such as stops, speeds and sensitivities and the capa- bilities of each camera. The studentsil of BHS would think the above speediJ rigmarole unless they are members oii the Photography Club. Beware thq shutters-snappers. Student Council The Student Council, the governing body at BHS, is an integral part of the school. Operating under the supervision of the faculty, it has the power to trans- act all business concerning student ac- tivities. The council provides a forum for student expression and exchange of views. However, without student in- terest and enthusiasm, the council is not effective. Good school spirit can be developed by active participation. One of the chief functions of the Student Council is to provide a learning expe- rience for students; the principal con- tribution to learning is the development of good citizenship, and students learn this by action. School Store Yes, we have no bananas, but we do have Braintree beanies, pennants, rings, pins, paperbacks, bus passes — whoops, censor that, and a cubby hole full of other exciting items. We spent our soph- omore year looking for the merchandise, our junior year buying it, and our senior year peddling it to other students. This year, since we knew where the store was, we had no excuse for coming to class without an eraser; after all, the school store has them at the low price of 3 for $1.99 plus tax. 53 Majorettes Hhm — Indian squaws. Yes-um. These are the Majorettes who high-step and pow-wow their way through football games. They are resplendent in blue and white uniforms, and cowboy boots. They twirl batons or parade their head- feathers. No football game or pep rally is complete without them. Cheerleaders Crummy weather! It would have to hail while we’re cheering . . . But rain, sleet, snow, or hail, these particular girls in snappy blue-and-white outfits are al- ways present at football and basketball games to cheer things up. Red in the face and hoarse in the throat, they staunchly yell Hey-hey-what-do-you- say-take-the-ball-the-other-way 1” even if the score is 95 to zilch. And not only does a cheerleader bounce around at games, she also helps to run homecom- ing festivities and to promote school spirit. For she is in earnest when she sings Wer’re loyal to you, Braintree High”. MAJORETTES 54 Rifle Club Stick ’em up, pardner . . . No, no, don’t shoot!’’ A scene from Gunsmoke? Nope; This is the Rifle Club sharp-shooting under the supervision of Mr. James Hos- ford. The gun-slingers are not restricted to boys only; I girls are heartily welcomed and, later on, may compete at an interscholastic tournament at Northeastern Univer- sity. During the year the members carry on postal 1 matches.’’ That is, one school challenges another to a showdown”. Each school shoots at its own range, and exchanges scores by mail. So, meanwhile, back at the ; range . . . Music Orchestra The BHS theater orchestra may not compare with the New York Phil- harmonic, but it does try to be a credit to their music teachers. Talents vary from horn-blowing to drum-pounding, but all players work to- gether to produce the harmonious strains heard at the Annual Pops Concert. This sweet blend of sounds is the result of hard work on the part of the musicians; they drag bass fiddles to school and begin Wednesday mornings with the March of the three Oranges.” (Squish!) Choir Music from the Hollis library.? Yes, under the direction of Mrs. Stovold, the Girls’ Choir meets two days a week. The officers for 1965-66 are: President Robin Armitage, Vice President Helen Olson, Secretary Charlotte Miczek, Treasurer Peggy Crawford, and Librarian Janice Collins. The talented accompanists are Betty Linden and Helen Olson. The choir has many performances scheduled and with the enthusiasm and cooperation manifested at practices you won’t want to miss any! Glee Club Band Take a few ahhh’s”; add some ' eee’s” and ooohh’s”; sprinkle with other pear-shaped tones; season with a few tra-la’s” and presto! — we have the Girl’s Glee club. Every Tuesday and Thursday fifty girls re- hearsed faithfully to Helen Olson’s piano accompaniment. Songs this past year included Dominique”, Jesu Bambino”, and selections from ' The Sound of Music”, which the girls performed at the Christmas and other assemblies. As these girls trill the rest of their way through life, they will find their BHS musical experiences very rewarding. BHS’ best in 1965-66 was its football and concert band. No matter who gave the orders — Band Director, Arthur Hauck, or officers K. McNulty, L. Hudson, R. Jenkins, M. Meaney — somehow the Band played on. They were there at every football game and major assembly and even made it through another Pops spectacular. Deported from Daughraty Gym this year (so that all sophomores could report on time) all juniors and seniors made a Sentimental Journey” back to Hollis twice a week. Band attention! Forward march into a great fu- ture. Tom the BOMB Semino Whoops! Let’s go the other way, Cookie”! Putting the foot into it! Tom Mahar JWS- ■ ' rr- r This way Tom ! . . . Let’s get together — ! This year was a rebuilding year for the Braintree High School football team under our new Coach Edwin Beck. With only seven letter men returning, the Wamps were hard pressed in most or their games. However, the flashy running of Tom Semino and the blocking-and-tackling of John Higgins, the two co-captains, helped to make the games intensely exciting. We wish Coach Beck and the next football players success in the years to come. Mutt and Jeff block a pass! Kev and Jack know their defense. Cross Country Captain Pete Wallace and Coach Richardi Over the tun and through the woods the cross country boys will sprint.. After the initial bang of the gun the contestants shoot off on their long, taxing course. And while the runners are puffing away on foot, the judges casually breeze by — in cars. Cross country is a different sport, seldom viewed by many (because spectators can’t keep up!). But our team deserves much credit since it leads the road in this sport, too. Ti I Bully for serve! Take it, left wing! Who kicked my shinguards?’’ One of the many activities offered to female athletes at BHS is field hockey, an exciting, fast-moving, toe-crunching sport. Although building an excellent team is a difficult task, the girls labor willingly under the inspiration of Coach Patricia Soucaras. During the full season the girls fight aggressively against other schools of the league to win the championship trophy, their aim from the first game to the last. In the future, former field hockey players may reminisce fondly upon their illustrious stick-wielding and inspire others to achieve the same. Field Hockey Soccer The Co-Captains So you think you get good mileage! Toe down! Toe down! I will keep my toe down!” These are words sacred to every Brain- tree High School soccer player. This past year the Wamp boosters took an experienced, well-balanced team into the tough Bay State League com- petition. Led by high scorer Tom Hamilton and goalie Bob Hatch, Coach Carson’s team tried hard to capture the league title for the third time in a row, and to gain a play-off berth in the state champion- ship. The boys learned that to have a successful season, they had to play with both their feet and their heads. The Baystate Champs Toe-Down 1 Boys’ Gymnastics They fly” through the air with the great- est of ease, swinging on the high bar or i ' leaping over the long horse. When ground- ' i ' ed, they stand on their hands, heads, !J shoulders, and tumble on mats. In addition, they sometimes dangle from still rings, perform stunts on the parallel bars, and L practice free exercises. It is exhausting ! simply to watch the boys but exhilarating , to see them win so many of their meets. ! ! Coach Schuhwerk has well trained his :l team, and gymnastics has been and always ' will be a popular sport. ili VARSITY 1965-1966 SENIOR TEAM MEMBERS— UNBEATEN IN THREE YEARS ! 65 Ice Hockey COACH VAFIDES AND CO-CAPTAINS TORNEY AND BRADLEY The roar of the crowd, the flash of skates, the blur of the puck, and a wild tangle of sticks — these are the trademarks of ice hockey. In recent years, though not necessarily successful in the score, Braintree High’s Wamps have been typified by a burning, aggressive nature which has often exploded into ice melees, locker room outbursts, and wild bus trips. Though made up of twenty different personalities, the BHS ice hockey team has one goal when the opening whistle blows, and whether or not the boys win, the school can be assured that the team will never give up its spirit. ARE YOU SURE JAMES BOND STARTED THIS WAY? Wrestling Grunts, groans, half-nelsons, and armlocks . . . the Braintree High wrestlers move around on the foam rubber mat. To improve last year’s record, the boys dieted constantly, kept their weights low, and dis- ciplined themselves. The Wamp matmen were led by hard-working Don Mavrides and John Higgins, though Coach Richardi’s boys were hard-pressed to duplicate past performances both in the league and in the state championships. Boys’ Basketball Bounce, bounce . . . pass, toss . . . up — and — in ! With precision and almost effortless ease, the Wamp basketeers kept dropping those balls into those hoops. Aggressive, sharp-shooting, the BHS team continued to be a leading con- tender in the highly-competitive Bay State League. — And every Friday night of the basket- ball season, enthusiastic fans crammed into the gym, yay-ing wildly and shaking the earth with their thunderous beat, beat, beat that other team!” They were not disappointed; it was a most thrilling and successful season. Girls’ Basketball Our female basketballers may not be so celebrated as the males, but they have worked just as enthusiastically and have had just as much fun. Led by Coaches Soukie”, and Con- nally the girls competed avidly in the Bay State League. Determination to win plus love of the game plus hard practice added up to a fine season for the girls.

September, 1963 Dear Diary, Today I found out the truth about high school. We sophomores have our own special building apart from the upperclassmen. The room numbers are so mixed up between the different sections of the Hollis itself that I got lost twice! (That’s more than I can say for some of my friends.) On top of this, I have two classes in the main building with three minutes between periods (I should be in shape for next year’s Olympics.) In contrast to junior high, the faculty treats us more like adults here in regard to responsibility and behavior. . . . Last night I attended the first Student Council record hop. What a blast! I not only had a great time, but I got in at a 25% discount because I had purchased a Braintree pin on Pin Day (or shall I say I was cajoled into purchasing it. ) Right now. I’m about to leave for the Braintree vs. Dedham football game. The team should win with the support of the cheerleaders and the Pep Club. Homecoming, with its parade and dance, is really what I am looking forward to. . . . What a shock we experienced today. I still can’t believe it; it is so unreal. In the middle of seventh period an announcement stated that President Kennedy had been shot. It seemed like an unreality; nothing had happened within our lifetime so vital to our country’s history. ... I had a date last night to go to the Thespian Society play, The Diary of Anne Frank”. There was one problem — my date was in the cast. I still enjoyed myself with the fine entertainment. Some of my classmates are really dramatic ! . . . Yeah! It looks as though the Braintree Wamps will take another Bay State basketball title this year. Even our own J.V.’s, backed by the spirit of our sophomore cheerleaders, have been undefeated. Basketball seems to be Braintree’s sport, but hockey and wrestling also have earned credit. . . . It’s snowing now, but I know the mood will be gay tonight at Washington Square”, our Sophomore Social. The class officers elected last November, President, Paul Del Papa; Vice-President, Martha Riihimaki; Secretary, Elizabeth Linden; Treasurer, Kathleen De Costa, have worked hard to make this dance memorable. . . . Balloons, menus, pink and orange streamers, all souvenirs of my evening at Washington Square, will no w be pressed into my scrapbook. But, I’ve got more important things to think about — a Science Fair project. In fact, there’s only one week to go, and — you guessed it — I have left it until the last minute. Maybe by next year I’ll learn the secret of starting earlier — maybe I could even win a prize. . . . Despite the fact that I didn’t get a Science Fair prize, I did receive an award at today’s sports assembly. It really wasn’t an award, merely recognition, but next year I’ll earn my varsity letter. . . . Well, the school year is finally ending. I’ve returned six of my seven books; the seventh one, which I evidently had misplaced, cost me a total sum of seven dollars. Horrors! At least I’ll remem- ber that subject ! Tomorrow is goodbye to Hollis and hello to joyous vacation. September, 1964 Dear Diary, I finally feel more like a part of the school; I’m no longer a little Sophomore”. The isolation from upperclassmen is gone, for now we’re located in the same building as the Seniors. (The junior girls have made use of the fact that the senior boys are so near at hand . . .) I’ve just begun to realize how difficult the junior year will be. I’m not only referring to studies, but also to the amount of time put into sports and clubs. Some of my friends are already rehearsing for The Miracle Worker” to be staged next month. The BHS Student Council, planning to hold a state Student Council conven- tion here in Braintree, is also working every day. The cheerleaders are planning ahead for the Homecoming, The Return of the Harvest”, hoping that it will be the best yet. . . . The tension is killing me — no date for the Junior Prom yet ! and College Boards this Saturday! Some combination. My teachers have been swamping me with practice exercises. After all this, I should deserve an 800. . . . The Junior year has come and gone. All those moments of anticipation were worth their while. Dancing amidst tropical trees, birds, flowers, and tikis, we felt as if our Adventures in Paradise” were the only reality. The Class officers — James White, Martha Riihimaki, Elizabeth Linden, Kathleen Decosta — and the decorations committees all worked together to make this evening unforgettable. .... I’ve only two weeks to find a summer job! Eek! I’m begin- ning to wonder whether America really is the land of opportunity! September, 1965 Dear Diary, My last year — I can’t believe it. The summer went by at a furious pace. So many things are running madly through my mind. Plans for next year have to be decided early. Once again we’ve been informed of the importance of our marks, especially those of the first term. (Is this year really going to be easier than last year as everyone told me. ) . . . The Yuletide spirit has caught us all in planning the Christ- mas Party. Even Santa Claus plans to make his visit from the North Pole. Holly, berries, Christmas trees, bells and snowflakes (inter- mingled with hidden mistletoe, naturally) will make an enjoyable evening. . . . Rehearsals for the Senior Show are taking up most of my spare time these days. It’s a lot of work, but we manage to have fun. Broadway here we come! . . . The last of my most memorable events is coming to an end. Senior Reception, with all its sophistication and glamour, was held at the King Philip Ballroom in Wrentham. What a perfect way to end all senior activities. This Sunday, June 12, is Graduation!!!! With the Class officers, Larry O’Brien, President; Martha Riihimaki, Vice-President; Elizabeth Linden, Secretary; John Higgins, Treasurer, leading the procession of Pomp and Circumstance, we shall march with a feeling of sadness realizing that these three memorable years have come to an end. As we march from Hollis Field, we’ll toss our hats high, looking forward to our new responsibilities as young men and women. 138 What We Wamps Will We, the Senior Wamps of Braintree High School, being of sound mind and body — supposedly — , do hereby draw up our last will and testament.

To the faculty of Braintree High School, we Seniors leave our appreciation and thanks for the knowledge and guidance which was unselfishly given to us. WITNESSES Deborah Barlow Steven Dand Karen Venuti Class Prophecy 1966 The Man From Wamp As Napoleon Solo stumbled into the gutter, his two-way radio popped out of his Indian on his B.H.S. ring.

EVANS, along with D. FOLEY, J. STANLEY, and M. RIIHIMAKI, have just devised a supercalifragilistic — expialidocious formula that threatens our nation’s security,” Iliya said. Did chemists D. PACE and R. PAYNE have anything to do with it?” No, but R. HANNIGAN, D. ASCHAFFENBURG, R. OLSON, B. BART- LETT, C. WILCOX, and J. TOLSON did.” Does our W.A.M.P. chemist B. DEPESA know anything about it?” No, but we may have to call in mathematicians P. VIITA, D. ELLIOT, J. MCDUFF, M. NIEMIEC, and L. HASTY and chemical engineers D. CLOUGHERTY, P. WALLACE, and B. CARTWRIGHT. Our foreign correspondents D. BALTOZER, T. MAHAR, and R. SARGENT have sent word that Thrush is sending the formula to the U.S..” O.K., Iliya, tell W.A.M.P. agents S. LYON, R. MACLEOD, J. MAGUIRE, and J. O ' DONNELL to watch Thrush agents C. OLSON, A. ORLANDELLA, FR. BROWN, and J. ROTONDI closely. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, farmer P. DELPAPA is out standing in his field. On the European scene, W.A.M.P. agents P. SHINER, J. SMEDILE, and C. SMITH have spotted a mysterious Thrush agent boarding a plane for D. YEP ' S grass shack at Pago Pago but because of the mild hurricane, the plane was forced to land at Logan Airport. At the airport, travel agent J. SACCHETTI greeted the plane just in time to see Pilot R. ' WEBB and co-pilot K. FOLEY fall from the cockpit. Doctors K. BORDEWIECK, W. MCDONALD, and D. SHEPHEARD ran to assist, accompanied by a truck- load of nurses: B. VICKERY, B. GREFE, M. DOYLE, P. DELVECCHIO, N. CROOKER, K. DOHERTY, and C. GOODELL. Inside the plane, airline stewardesses C. CAPPIELLO, G. CAMERON, J. RANDOLPH, L. SMITH, and C. SOPEL tried in vain to remove passengers K. KEEFE, L. LEWIS, J. MAHON, and V. SAMPEY. We won’t leave until Peyton Place is over,” they smirked. But navigators M. BLACK, C. HARRINGTON, and R. BURNS threw them out bodily. In the utter mass of confusion, the Thrush agent stole into a fat taxi called The Chubby Checker Cab driven by speedster, J. Cusick, who made it to Braintree in record time: 10 minutes, only to be beaten by our hero Napoleon Solo, riding in a TRESSLER cab. He was stopped by a state policeman S. KOBEL. As the cab screeched to a halt, he heard a crash. Looking up he saw auto instructor J. TAYLOR’S car collide with a school bus. Running from the bus, J. MARTINO, J. BRADLEY, J. BROW, P. DEGNI, K. GLYNN, R. GALOTTI, W. GUSTIN, P. SUGRUE, J. STARR, and R. BOGLE yelled, You ruined our field trip! State policeman M. CHRISTIE tried to shut them up. In the confusion, Napoleon sprang from his cab to follow the mysterious Thrush agent. Napoleon followed the agent to the B.H.S. football field where an unbelievable game was under way. Taking advantage of the confusion, the Thrush vanished into the crowd. While desperately searching for the Thrush agent, Napoleon encountered King J. QUEENAN, actress J. ROGERS, famed professor of music A. RICCI, and Sir WELSFORD the Great. Would you like to buy some Girl Scout cookies?” begged C. PILLSBURY and M. WALKAMA. No,” he abruptly replied while turning to find himself face to face with K. GRONDELL’S T.V. camera. Perplexed by the commotion, he turned to a group of reporters, L. HENSON, R. JULIANO, F. AUSTIN, C. HANE, W. GLYNN, and T. STONE, who announced, History is being made: Braintree is winning a football game.” As Napoleon’s stomach growled, he looked hungrily towards the refreshment stand. After pushing through the crowd and knocking over spectators W. CONCANNON, B. CORCORAN, C. EVANS, K. FOLEY, J. REERA, W. LONGABARD, and R. AVITABLE, Napoleon finally made it. While being waited on by the South Shore’s fore- most gourmets E. LINDEN, S. DA WE, A. GARBER, J. COLEMAN, and P. ELLIOT, he observed the skillful work of J. HARRINGTON, G. ACKER- SON, R, ANDERSON, F. BAILEY, and R. KENNY as they set down a clean, new dirt floor. Meanwhile, up on the roof banging were carpenters J. TOSI, P. PINAULT, N. GOODHUE, R. BAKER, and G. CONNORS vainly attempting to repair the holes in the roof. Bored with this, he returned to the grandstand just in time to view the stupendous half-time ceremonies for which B.H.S. is known. Leading the parade was Tom-Tom the SEMINO Indian, followed by majorettes M. CURRERI, D. FLAGG, and M. MC- GRATH,. Proudly marching down the center of the field in the flashy uniforms was the celebrated B.H.S. band with such talented musicians as R. CARTOOF, J. RUGGIANO, D. CALDERWOOD, T. JULIAN, and K. McNULTY. Even the armed forces were represented by commanders E. 140 LEZYNSKI, W. SAMPSON, A. MCCARTY, AND J. NEARY: Admirals C. JOHNSON, M. NORRIS, J. PATTS and B. PARKER; and WAC’S D. DONANG and A. BONANNO. Famous politicians D. HIGGS, D. MAV- RIDES, and M. LEAHY took time from their busy schedules to address the crowd. Once again football action resumed on the field. After a vicious scramble, J. HIGGINS rushed across the field to aid an injured player. He was stam- peded by Dr. P. CRAWFORD, Dr. E. TORREY, Dr. D. HAND, and Dr. L. GOODWIN, and nurses J. MCDONOUGH, C. DEMARCO, L. WHITE- HOUSE, N. KEEFE, and C. MURPHY. Meanwhile at the far end of the field. Pastors SAWLER and VALLE, Father SCHULTZ and D. MCCORMACK, Cardinal, in an ecumenical spirit, hustled the suffering player from the field. In confusion, Napoleon spotted R. FOLEY and D. W. FOLEY rushing from the crowd carrying a mysterious black box. They approached the gym. At the same time, he saw the Thrush agent sneaking toward the street. While following the agent, Napoleon’s attention was momentarily drawn by a whizzing golf ball that took three inches off his nose. Quickly he turned to the right and saw P. DIBONA practicing the professional swing that won the P.G.A. Tournament. Suddenly, a whizzing baseball hit by E. DIBONA parted his hair. As Napoleon turned to look, he said, uhhh! I must be going crazy; I’m seeing double.” In- stantaneously, Optometrist A. GUIDER rushed to his aid with a pair of glasses, only to be beaten by psychologists K. JONES, D. GERARD, D. BARLOW, carrying their Castro Convertible couches in their pocketbooks. Quickly recovering from this encounter, he followed the Thrush agent to Braintree Square. While passing Smiley’s he spotted W. playboy” BYRNS leaping from a window, with a hot” chocolate-chip ice cream cone in hand. Wondering where the Thrush agent was, he entered the drugstore and demanded a Bromo from the carbonic engineer, D. BAKER. Pharmacists G. KENNY, K. MCCONNELL, A. POLLARD, C. BARNES, and P. DAIUTE and assistant JOANNA WILSON, were preparing medicine for the injured football players. Seeing that he could be of no assistance here, Napoleon straggled past the Braintree Beauty Academy, where beauticians K. KARL- SON, L. MARTIN, P. FAENZA, D. CIRILLO, J. PAYLOR, L. BOND, J. HORSFORD, and F. LILEY were beautifying the First Lady for the in- augural ball. The aroma of V. DESIMONE’S sausages enraptured our hero, luring him to the Pizza Oven. P. GLENNON, L. SOLIMINI, J. ROSSELLI, A. SPERANZO, C. SPINELLA, J. TERRUSO, C. CAPOBIANCO, P. DELUCA, A. DI- CARLO, and P. PRESANZANO, all members of the SONS of ITALY, were assembled celebrating their Annual Pizza Picnic. At the same time, a crowd of many gourmets: J. HORTE, B. HOBBS, R. DONAHOE, D. BAILEY, G. JOY and B. STARITA; and C. ROZENAS, hungry medical technicians; ravenous accountants B. VARROSO, P. CA- SALE, M. MONTI, and P. FRANCESCHI; and famished secretaries, L. DILILLO, B. DITOCCO, B. DELEO, B. PAGNANI, L. CORVI, J. CAR- PINELLI, and P. DELVECCHIO were gathered around E. HARTLEY’S Spumoni counter. Napoleon turned to ask salesmen D. WALKER and S. GENEAU if they had seen any suspicious characters. Receiving no” for an answer, Napoleon turned to ask salesmen, no” again. Napoleon decided to check elsewhere. As he left the Pizza Oven, he spotted a mysterious figure rushing down the street. He followed in hot pursuit until he had to stop for gas at P. WATSON’S garage. There he saw mechanic J. CALL- BECK, B. HOOD, W. MCLEOD, C. MCLEAVY, M. MULLOY, G. HYNES, C. OLSON, R. BRANCO, J. DUGAN, AND R. TAPPER working diligently on S. CURREN’S Ferrari. Full of gas, he zoomed toward the Charterhouse Hotel, where he suspected the Thrush agent was hiding. As he drove by the pool, he saw D. ROHANNA trying to ease her head out of her poolside locker. Amazed, physical therapist J. BRO ' WN watched. On entering the hotel lobby, Napoleon saw hotel managers J. WILSON, S. DAND, W. CURRAN, L. DABENE, and W. O’CONNELL discussing re- cent transactions with R. PILLSBURY, M. THOMPSON, L. TAYLOR, E. STENBERG, A. NORTHRUP, H. DUNBAR, AND D. CONWAY. Then, he asked public relations directors, M. LEBLANC, W. HANSON, S. GOR- DON, J. HALL, and P. JOHNSON, if they had seen any new guests. Dis- appointed again, Napoleon proceeded with his search. Travelling down Frank- lin St., he thought he saw the Thrush agent’s car careening down a side street toward Sunset Lake. At the lake, he first saw P. KENNEDY AND K. DECOSTA combing the beach, while social worker M. GODDARD tried to find them a job. Marine biologists, R. KEIGAN, A. PIRAINO, B. COPP, J. BOMBARA, P. GHIORSE, J. PORTER, M. QUILLIN, T. HAMILTON, R. TALBOT, H. STEVENSON, AND C. BAILEY were taking water samples. Gliding through the water were skiers, K. DOBBYN, W. FARRINGTON, J. MCCOSKER, M. CRONIN, J. POLIO, P. POLIO, and L. INNIS who almost collided with swimmers G. CONNORS, L. HUDSON, T. HARVEY, J. LANEAU, P. REILLY, and L. ROONEY. On the beach were artists A. JORDAN, F. CARUSO, J. RIFFEY, J. DUNBAR, B. EMOND, D. FOLEY, R. BLOOM, and D. DIBONA painting abstract seascapes. Dryly he noticed scuba diver C. WILLARD rising from the depths. Although Napoleon wanted to linger by the hot, green water, he could not since Thrush agent was stealthily leaving by the far end gate. Moments later when Napoleon was crossing the Hennebury Bridge, a commotion occurred at the railroad sta- tion below. Would Thrush seek refuge? Napoleon hurried to investigate. J. JOLLS, V. CLARK, R. CHAMPAGNE, W. COLLIGAN, and A. GUM- MING were rushing about looking for tools to hand to R. CLEVELAND, B. CORCORAN, P. WALDECKER, P. COLE all busily repairing steam leaks. Inadequate facilities made it necessary for engineers R. MEYER, D. RICHARDI, J. REED, and E. REYNOLDS to lay track. D. HUGHES, D. HUER, C. MARTIN and R. SUGRUE were hanging crimson curtains in the windows of the yellow caboose. R. STONE, M. TANKUNS, CHARLES BECKER, and O. BAKKEN were oiling the wheels of the choo-choo train. But Thrush was not in the midst of this confusion! Therefore, Napoleon’s next stop was Carroll’s Cafe. En route he stopped to check with W.A.M.P. headquarters. Give me an open channel!” This is agent OO6I 2 calling.” Aroused by the urgency of the situation I.B.M. operators S. MARDIROSIAN, D. LEVANGIE, S. DAMORE and J. MUOLLO tried frantically to contact Iliya, off on another assignment. I.B.M. operators D. NICKLESS, L. BACON, and J. CALDWELL contacted Mr. Waverly. Napoleon continued, Some- thing’s cooking, have you any leads.’” We think chemists P. WHITTEMORE AND L. ASARO might have something.” OO6V2 out” Three conventions were being held at Carroll’s, world renown for its unique architecture having been created by P. GRAY, R. HATCH, and K. SKOG- LUND. The Secretaries of America were meeting in the East Room where our hero saw C. CUSICK, M. ELAVIN, M. FRAZIER, A. ZANGHI, P. HAYDEN, J. VAULDING, C. THAYER, L. BROWN, C. MCGILLIVRAY, M. MILLS, C. PARKHURST, and D. NELSON sitting with J. MURPHY, C. OBERG, J. ADLEY, K. LEAHY, D. BECKER, and N. AIELLO. In the West Room, among the Teachers of America, he noticed D. HARVEY, D. QUINN, R. DOYLE, H. MCELROY, D. MCNAMARA, B. NAYLOR, and D. KUCZYNSKI, escorted by F. GARDNER, L. O’BRIAN, J. DARCHE, S. PARKER, R. MCALLISTER, K. DOYLE. P. TORNEY, AND W. LEMININ. The Bookkeepers of America were in the Never-the-Twain-Shall- Meet room when Napoleon saw A. SOLIGAN, B. KING, F. HINGSTON, J. WHITMARSH, R. HAYES, R. GARMORY, R. MCDEE, K. MITCHELL, C. NORTH. G. NEAL, S. MACDONALD, M. DORN, S. CAMERON, R. BELYEA, G. MACDONALD, and R. MERCON. Maitre D J. Cusick showed Napoleon to a seat. Here, Napoleon was to have rendezvous with several important W.A.M.P. agents, C. SAMPSON, J. ADAMS, and J. KACZAN. MMM ... Hi there girls,” Napoleon said masculinely, as waiters R. JOHNSON and W. JONES brought six Colas on-the-rocks, with olives. The secret agents discussed the case. During their discussion, Napoleon noticed a splendid ten-page menu printed by JAMES HIGGINS, and P. OUIMET, with art work by B. DAVENPORT, K. MCDONOUGH, K. ADAMS, and K. TANKUNS. On the back was written a secret message, Thrush on River Boat.” Immediately, our hero leaped out of the restaurant, only to trip over A. LYONS in his Bugs Bunny costume. Recovering germ-free, Napoleon ran across the street and plunged into the Monatiquot River. There he saw river boat pilot J. HEDMAN steer Jon’s Gal” down the muddy Mona. Our hero swam to him. As he boarded he was swept off his feet by dance instructor D. RENT, who tried to teach him the Watusi to K. MIRRIONE’S accordion music. Fnigging down the deck, Napoleon smelled the sweet aroma of Southern Fried chicken made by the ship’s cooks, M. ODEA, C. PA ' TY, AND K. STADIG, J. AVITABLE, L. CAVAN, K. KELVIE, and P. CONNERNEY. Napoleon noticed many people sitting along the deck includ- ing jeweler, F. CARUSO; teachers R. CUTLER and S. LYNCH; lawyers R. KONAN, D. LEMON, and R. BUSHEY; X-ray technician, S. STRADLEY; merchant marines W. PERRY and R. PERRY; and medical technicians B. CAINE and L. KIPP, with an aeronautical technician’s P. FERRELL and D. ERICKSON. Looking up he saw electronics engineers B. PETERSON, T. PICKERING, R. SEARS, S. SHAW, R. SANDERSON, C. STEVENSON, M. SMITH, D. SPRAGUE, R. SULLIVAN, L. THOMPOSN, T. PETERSON, D. CAHOON, R. MCLEOD, R. LUTZ and W. YETMAN trying to repair the EXIT signs over the doors of the casino. Napoleon entered the huge smoke-filled room only to see secretaries E. ELLIOT, M. APULO, J. S’TE- WART, K. STARKEY, B. GAVONI, E. SULLIVAN K. ALDORISIO, and L. Wright playing tiddley winks. S. WHITMAN and M. YORKE each won a prize — door. Realizing that this was a wild goose chase, Napoleon swam back to shore. His drip-dry suit, designed by R. ARMITAGE, shrunk so much that he had to quickly buy a new one from salesman S. NICKSON. Darkness had set in as Napoleon hopped into the new car that W.A.M.P. mechanics D. BIERMAN, D. TIGGES, R. BAKER, P. THOMPSON, and R. KING had just finished repairing. Engineer J. PANEPINTO had designed it, with the help of metal workers P. BROOKS and M. D. BACON. He, Na- poleon zoomed back to Braintree High, where he had a hunch the Thru sh agent would be. Pulling into the parking lot, he almost hit Gas Lamp Lighter J. SANDS. After parking, he went into the gym where he was almost trampled by the crowd at the Sports Council record hop. Secretaries M. CIPULLO, J. GRUNDY, C. PENDERGAST, D. GRUNDY, P. FAY and D. DURAN were dancing with draftsmen R. LEBARON, A. ' TYREE, B. PHILLIPS, Olympic gymnasts J. Riley and Wimbleton champ J. WHI’TE. Disc jockey B. PCSWERS, Good evening folks. This dance is the hit of the year. We have a great many celebrities with us tonight. I can see softball players D. KENNISTON, J. VINCENT, and D. BARRETT; gymnasts D. GREY AND P. JONES; basketball player M. MCDONALD, and All-American D. MOOR- HEAD, D. ELLIS, and K. HOUCHIN. And then there are the artists and interior decorators who decorated the gym, M. CHANDLER, S. NOURSE, G. SHEDLOCK, S. GOODWIN, and D. KENNEDY. If you need help, nurses M. SHAUNGHNESSEY, G. SOUCY, and dental hygienist C. GILL are here. In a few minutes, our Latin scholar W. SHELLEY will give an oration before we hear the singing nuns H. OLSON, G. FLYNN, and C. MICZEK. But first we will have new fall fashions modeled by G. BREGOLI, S. BUKER, J. VOCINO, K. VENUTI, J. O’LEARY, R. KELLEY, and L. MCKAY. These fashions were created by the House of BLISS with accessories by designers C. ECKBLOM and M. SHEA.” At that moment, draftswoman S. MCPHERSON yelled Fire!” Clouds of smoke filled the gym as K. DONELL, J. MARSHALL, P. MARTIN and L. MARSELL ran out the door nearly trampling LPN’s R. TRAVAINS, C. LEPPANEN, S. FORSYTHE, J. MORRIS, and C. LANE who rushed in with a giant-sized tube of Unguentine. Occupational therapist P. FIORENTINO was almost knocked on the floor by Napoleon as he chased Thrush agent who was fleeing through the mob. Napoleon followed the Thrush agent into the main building, while outside S. CAMERON, D. MCKEOUGH, D. NEITZ, and R. HOWE were whizzing around the track. The Thrush agent crept up to the second floor, followed by Napoleon, who met librarians K. BORAX and P. LORING bringing encyclopedias to teachers J. HUERTH, C. JOHNSON, A. ALBRECHT, J. COLLINS, and S. BRIGHT- MAN. Napoleon asked them if they had seen anyone. They said that they had seen a mysterious, sinister figure headed toward the make-up room. As our hero stole to the room, he noticed teachers D. WALSH, L. MACGILL- VORY, N. MALOOF, J. LANK, J. MACASKILL, CHRISTINE BECKER, and L. KNOPP leaning over a radio transmitter in room 214. When he reached the make-up room door, through which the Thrush agent had just entered Napoleon bent low and peered through the keyhole . . . only to see the Thrush agent steal through a secret passageway. Cautiously, Napoleon followed; however, he was unable to find the way in which the Thrush agent had entered the secret room beyond the wall. Removing his shoe he extracted a miniature drill (a must for all W.A.M.P. agents) and bore a hole through the wall. Before him was the secret formula lying on a table surrounded by faculty members. A quick glance at his notes told him that K. DIGGINS, J. GARABEDIAN, P. BEAN, P. HIXENBURG, L. HATCH, D. HILLIER, C. NEVILLE, J. HADLEY, T. HERGET, E. FAIRBANKS, L. BOND, M. MURPHY, J. MOLINE, and J. DAYTON were all former students at B.H.S. Anxious to get more information on what other things this group had in common Napoleon removed his ring radio and called headquarters. Give me an open channel” Go ahead. This is Waverly here” See what you have on . . .” Napoleon never finished the sentence ... his attention was turned toward a commotion in the secret room . . . the group had risen to acknowledge the entrance of their leader . . . The Thrush messenger. Cancel that ... I know who the Thrush messenger is and now I understand the formula that was so closely guarded.” Who? What?” The Thrush messenger is ” The messenger is Resucitator Ann. You know, the georgeous blond dummy used in the in-first aid course at B.H.S. These teachers, former students, have devised a secret formula that can bring inanimate objects to life. Brain- tree High was the field of operation since they would all have access to first aid treatment in case anything went wrong. They tested the formula by using it on a tackle dummy . . . the one who fell injured in the game . . . apparently the dose of formula given to him was not sufficient. However, because of the venture, school spirit once more lives in hallowed B.H.S. halls. Yes, Mr. Waverly, it seems that indirectly Thrush has done us a favor. Nothing more I can do here . . . guess I’ll sign off . . . This one’s closed.” True this fascinating case is closed, but there are millions of other stories in the files of the Wizards of the Association of Mad Police. Junior Queens Bright sunlight. The flash or red and gold uniforms; the gleam of silver instruments. Blue and white figures cheering hoarsely. Thousands of hands clapping, tossing shakers, throwing candy-bar wrappers . . . Gaily colored convertibles. Crepe streamers in the breeze. Confetti swirling. Hopeful queens smiling, laughing, waving, wondering if their hair will ever stay in place. Night. Music pouring out of the gym. Suddenly — silence. A breathless hush. Then ... a new queen !

Christmas Assembly Holiday spirit enveloped the auditorium as students piled in for the annual Christmas assembly. After playing the more thought-provoking pieces, the band swung into its lively renditions of favorite carols. The Glee Clubs and Choir performed with the ut- most finesse, in keeping with the joy, yet solemnity of the season. Finally, the audience had its chance to participate — when time came for the mass sing- along of traditional carols at the end of the program. LOOK AT THAT SKI SLOPE 146 YOU FINALLY GOT A JOB!
