Journal 7 We are proud of our heritage - the ideals and the principles upon which Providence was founded, and the liberty, freedom, leadership, and toleration of those things we cherish and nurture. Roger Williams, persecuted and the victim of in- tolerance, founded in Providence a uniquely dif- ferent colony, indeed, without his determination and perserverance, Providence could not have been the sanctuary of many refugees from the intolerant, prejudiced and insular that dominated the world. We have evolved from a small colonial settle- ment to a large, bustling industrial center. Tower- ing smokestacks, winding expressways, modern architectural buildings, flourishing shopping cen- ters and thriving institutions for education - these comprise the Providence of today! We, Central students today, will be Providence citizens tomorrow. We will continue to build upon the future and preserve the principles upon which Providence was founded. The 1959 Black and Gold attempts to bring us closer to our city and to renew our faith in those ideals which have made Providence. PROVIDENCE COUNTY COURT HOUSE Photo Courtesy R. I.

MacLAUGHLIN Principal As you, our graduates, depart from Cen- tral, I wish to extend my personal congratu- lations to each of you upon completing your course, and express the hope that you will follow the teachings which we have endeav- ored to impart to you during your stay in this school. For most of you, graduation marks the end of formal day by day direction. Some of you will continue your education at a higher level. Whichever course you take, each of you has a part to play in the crea- tion of values which will, to a great extent, determine your success or failure. Our dem- ocratic way of life asks only that each par- ticipates in the activities and decisions in a way which is constructive and not given to beliefs which are destructive to that which our predecessors have established and which we treasure greatly. May the years ahead be filled with suc- cess and happiness. EDWARD F. MCLAUGHLIN Principal CHARLES F.

With confidence in ourselves and what we have learned, and anxiety in what the future holds for us, we face life. As students at Central we have had the satisfaction of learning subject matter from a competent and understanding body of teachers. Without their guidance and assistance many of us would have fallen by the wayside in our quest for knowledge. The course of study at Central has been as varied as the needs and interests of the students. Our three years at Central consisted not only of study and preparation for our future, but of many extra curricular activities such as sports, dances, plays, and clubs. Pygmalion, Arsenic and Old Lace, the May Queen Dance, the KickOff Dance, and Class Dance are happy memories that we shall always cherish. Dried up corsages, souvenir elephants, and misty memories will be reminders of our proms. The Athletic Club, the Science Club, and the Library Club are proof of Central's growing school spirit. The Centralite, which presents a busy account of school news, and the Student Council, which is establishing itself as the leader of school activities, are further proof of Central's progress. Central, in short, has provided us with a wide, rich curriculum and an excellent social program. Knowledge, education, and a desirable social growth were equally pro- vided for at Central, our Alma Mater, which we hope future Centralites will appreciate as much as we do.

Ronald Ash 44 Central High School, for three years, has been the nucleus around which our thoughts, our work, our dreams, and our play have revolved. It has watched us change from unsure, different, irresponsible young people to mature, confident and responsible individuals, who will take their place among the adult population of this country. The years we have spent here prepared us physically, morally, spiritually and mentally for our future life. Our graduation from Central is the commencement of a new life, a life of adjust- ment, independence and opportunity. We must adiust ourselves to the responsibility of making our own decisions, solving our own problems, making our own choices, and in short being responsible for and to ourselves. The protection, which we have accepted as a right, from the hardships and complexities of life, will be replaced by independence. Each of us will be given the opportunity of choosing our own path in life. The future will hold for each of us only those things for which we wish, work and strive. The life we create for ourselves depends on whether we will emerge as individuals or remain one of the gang, whether we take a vital part in our community and nation or sink into apathetic insignificance, and whether we strive to instill our life with meaning or indif- ferently accept things as they come. We shall be confronted by these aspects of life many times and I hope the decisions we make will be ones of which we shall be proud.

JUNE GRADUATES Literature always anticipates Life, It does not copy it, but molds it to its purpose. WINTER WONDERLAND AT ROGER WILLIAMS PARK Photo Courtesy of Providence Journal-Bulletin 1 2 2 Q 1 3, E y ,rg sg, if 3E Ji Hi gss BL SL MY PARENTS ELIZABETH COVILL ELIZABETH COVILL Much has been written, down through the ages, by persons paying tribute to their parents. I would now like to try to pay tribute to mine, and tell them how much they mean to me. My first memory of my parents is not a very pleasant one. It is of my mother trying to make me eat spinach which I don't like very much. It seemed to me, up until now, that they were always trying to make me do something I didn't like. Now I realize it was for my own good, and I regret the fact that I was usually so stubborn about not doing whatever it was they wanted me to do. As I look back I can see my mother and father doing things for me, and now I could kick myself for not being more appreciative. Yet they were always there to help me when I needed them. I can still turn to them when I have a problem and they help me work out a solution. When I am unhappy, they offer sympathy and under- standing. When I am happy, they are happy, too. Many are the times they have sacrificed their own pleasures so I might go where I wanted to go or have some new clothes which I thought I needed. Although my father has often said he is not running a taxi service, he has never refused to drive me wherever it was I wanted to go - Church fellowship, Rainbow meeting, or to school for a Sunday afternoon play rehearsal. Often I see and hear my mother admiring something she would like to have, but instead she spends the money on her children, with never a word of regret. Infinite is the number of times I could have said thank you for little things they've done for me, but .infinite is the number of times I didn't. I don't even know how to begin to express my appreciation. I know they haven't always been proud of everything I've done but in the past three years I have tried hard to make them proud of me, and I will keep on trying. This is the only way I know how to show my gratitude for their being the kind of parents they are. They have made my home pleasant and happy. Wherever I go I will always be glad to come home. Songs, stories, and poems have been written about parents, and holidays set aside on which to honor them. Famous artists have painted pictures of their parents. None of these can I do. I can't find one adiective good enough to describe what I mean. I can only say Thank you for being - well, iust being Mom and Dad! JANUARY ANTHONY EDAL ESSAY THE PRIVILEGE OF VOTING NEIL GALLAGHER I am an American voter. I am the product of the fighting, the weeping, the bleeding, the praying and the dying of my forefathers. I represent a loved but intangible something called freedom, an ideal our ancestors could not see, no hear, nor taste, nor feel but valiantly sacrificed their lives so that others might have it. As a voter I represent America. I represent the cherished ideals of the courageous men who helped make me great. I am a true monument to the living and the dead who struggled to make me a democ- racy. I am the paragon of progress in the world. I am he utopia of the freedom-deprived peoples of Communist countries, people who are starving for a treasured something called liberty which they are not sure even exists. But I am more than one of these, for I am America. I am the Kansas farmer threshing wheat to pro- vide for 160,000,000 free American. I am the New England laborer in a wool factory helping to clothe the 160,000,000 free Americans, and I am the Oregon lumberiack felling trees to help provide shelter for the same 160,000,000 Americans. Three different people, three different occupations, and three dif- ferent locations, but one obiective and one common privilege - the right to vote. I am the past and the present in different forms. I am the pen in the hand of Thomas Jefferson as he puts to paper a declaration of independence to be sent to George III, I am the sword in the hand of a Union soldier as he wields me to suppress Con- federates and keep America united, and I am the battleworn rifle tightly grasped by a World War II private as he readies himself to oppose the insane fury of HitIer's armies. I have been represented by many voices. By the voluble resonance of Patrick Henry as he shocked the Virginia Assembly with these electrifying words, ls life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be pur- chased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid NEIL GALLAGHER it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! By the roar of John Paul Jones' cannons aboard the Bon Homme Richard , by the stammering and stutter- ing of a first grade student as he recites, for the first time, the pledge of allegiance, by the quiet reverence of a young girl as she prays, Our Father, Who art in Heaven . . . , and finally, all the entreaties of our forefathers are summed up in the one little click of the voting machine. My struggle for unity and independence has not been easy. In the 1850's the issue of forced servitude caused me to be broken into two separate factions, each bitter against the other. The affair was stopped at Appamattox Courthouse, and then I settled down to rest. I expanded my boundaries and grew in pros- perity, but the Central Powers attempted to steal from me my wealth of freedoms and rights. My people and I obiected, we shed blood in the Argonne Forest to defeat this threatening power. On Novem- ber II, 1918, we again settled down to heal the wounds of war and restore normalcy to America. Soon, another impending evil appeared in the form of an insane Austrian paper-hanger with hopes of world domination. My people and I brought our re- sources to the front again and, spurted by our spirit and freedom, we helped demolish the Nazi regime. Praying never to see war again, we rested once more to continue our progressive pattern, but like a darken- ing cloud Communism reared its ugly mass on the horizon blocking the sunlight of freedom. This atheis- tic and dictatorial doctrine has gained a foothold in some countries, but let us pray that it does not be- come dominant in America. By prayer and the exercise of our rights to speak, worship and vote freely, we can fulfill the dreams of our ancestors who strove to make America what it is today, the land of the free and the home of the brave .

MYRTLE CHRISTOPOULOS Success ns an intangible oblect which everyone consciously or unconsciously strives to capture lt IS motivated by mner desires gained by hard work and perseverance, and once tasted is never forgotten Success found and then lost leads to disllluslonment but success never possessed causes despair Webster s dictionary describes success as a favor able end of a venture, attainment of wealth, fame, etc A person who has achieved his aim This also is my concept of success Success is sought by people In all stations of life from the aged beggar barely surviving in a squalid hovel he calls home, to the middle aged mulhmll llonalre comfortably entrenched on Wall Street to the starry eyed middle class youth innocent of lifes turbulent ways, and last but not least, to the man of no special age or class The first s dreams of success center on warm cloth mg, enough food, and some money The second vis ualnzes his enormous fortune doubled The third hopes for fame, respect and admiration The last dreams of success as the peace of his soul. Each desires success, each values it differently Each will work for it In various ways The beggar will seek alms, the rich man Invests in stocks, the youth works in whatever field he IS qualified, the man reads his Buble. All are working, but no two in the same way. The beggar may by some miracle be transformed to a comfortable station of life or he may shll con tmue hopelessly to beg The middle aged multnmillion alre may gamble too highly one day and lose all he possesses, Including his success The youth may be incapable of arising out of the mediocrity of the people around hum or may lack the courage to leave JUNE ANTHON WHAT IS SUCCESS MYRTLE CHRISTOPOULOUS the security of conformity and thus never taste suc cess The man may someday give up his search for peace and loin the ranks of his immoral fellows, thus forfeltmg his chance for success Success is so easily lost Success is sought by each Individual to appease the wants within him One may want recognition, another respect, while another may be bitten by suc cess fever causing the suppression of all other crav ings and emotions within hum Success is a dream not always realized Success is an Eldorado not always found Success is often a Utopia never created Here is the foundation of despondence, despair and hopelessness Ephemeral success creates a craving which will ever be appeased But here there is hope, for the individual reasons within himself, l achieved It once, I can do it again Thus, again begins the working hoping, and dreaming Today each of us is on the threshold of life All of us will mold our own future and tread our own paths to success. All of us will decide why we want success, what it means to us, and how hard we will strive to gain it No matter how many obstacles are before us, how many difficulties we must surmount or how many hindrances cross our paths, we must always remem ber that work and perseverance are our protection against them Success will always be ahead, iust within our grasp We must never despair, for as thou workest, so shalt thou receive Success is a goal we must never lose, for without at life would be without meaning Ahead of us lies tomorrow, life, and success ' gr,-',,sfzQ,m:,,wtsg2zf,,f sggmt- rt, it-l5v,,fQ,,1 l 5ea',' it ww, wwsw f,,5:,t1 . f ,llama :.l1sn..w1few ?z'lf212rQisf2i'llfftffffv 5 S' 'liar l'Tt:l1,32gsf lll2lsgl ,wxflzil-tgi?fEfw'1illQ , .

I have tried to strive for the knowledge which is offered so freely here. I guess I'm not as learned as I know I could be if I had reached some of my conclusions earlier. But I guess that small amount of initiative has always evaded me. It is so easy to spend three years of our lives learning what little is necessary to free ourselves of the burden we know as school. I think I'm beginning to realize what the purpose of this valuable institution is: To help young people prepare for what I now know lies ahead of me. As I think of what lies ahead I cannot help my trembling, for isn't it true that we all take the course of least resistance. You see, I somehow seem to remember the words of advice l've heard so often. I only wish I would have heeded them long ago. Now I think I'm comprehending just what those words mean - you have only one chance! My future is the abstract thing I'm trying so hard to grasp. I know it's not lost, but merely hidden from me. As I see it, it lies somewhere in a field not separated from me by my lack of physical attributes, but hidden from me by a very nominal amount of perseverance, the will to go out and conquer. This is what I have been chasing for twelve years and only now feel to be gaining. Some people, born with this perseverance, are the people I admire. It is not something one can attain through influential parents or friends, or by being overwhelming in natural wealth. It is in everyone but only a small percentage have the mental stamina and courage to explore it and use it persistently throughout their schooling. No. One's future or success is not lost but only hidden, for the worthy to find and cherish. It is a desperate struggle, this search for success, but to gain it is to reap the true meaning from life. Yes, in a few months I'll be free, free to go on in my quest. I have searched for twelve years and I hope after leaving Central I may acquire new vigor to continue in my schooling until I find and subdue this character they call success, keeping him for my family and for myself, to work for us. Then I hope I may instill into my children the value of it so they may go out into the world with the knowledge of experience I will have given them and pursue it until it is achieved. Then and only then do I believe I will be successful. 77 ROGER WILLIAMS was America's first sportswriter.

THIS WOULD HAPPEN. What gloomy corridors we'd have. Miracles don't happen often. We'd have something nice to say about him. The Associate Office would have a rest. The door isn't that heavy. We could hear the other cheerleaders. It wouldn't be Joan. That's impossible. We wouldn't have to pick her off the floor after passing time. There wouldn't be any arguing about who was going to eat whose lunch We'd all listen. Who else could play Einstein? There would be quite a dent in Central's cheering section. Johnson and Johnson would go bankrupt. He'd go through the corridors bellowing - Charge. Someone else would be. Think how disappointed we'd be. They'd both be lost. Mount Pleasant students wouldn't be envious. Short notice work would never be done. She'd be lonely. Less music at the dances. He wouldn't know where he was going. More confusion on the third floor. Who would know it was Judy. No scuffed corridors and less plaster on the floors. We can dream can't we? It would be our loss. Central could afford fluorescent lights. Think of all we would have missed. Marion Baligian I nteresting N eighborly T ernflc ........... ......, E ntertaining E nchanting N atural ......... H andsome U nique .,.... N oble .....

A lingering summer with its genial warmth enveloped Central as Coach Kutneski made ready for the gridiron season of 1958. Under his dynamic direction, the school awakened to a new life as football ruled the air. As usual, a group of tried and true veterans reported, few in number but staunch in spirit. Some of the newer members lacked experience, it is true, but this deficiency was more than compensated for by a sportsmanlike aggressiveness that means a great deal in a football game. In the backfield were Fred DeQuattro, John Orisni and Cleto Verduchi - a trio that assured us plenty of charging and running strength. Central's front wall consisted of Norman LaChance at center, Charles Moore and Bob Piscione as guards, Richard Reddington and Pat DeQuattro as tackles, Errol Hunt and Frank lannucci as ends. They were supported by Geor e S . L ' g t aurent, Owen Taylor, Mike Tameo, and Travis Fisher as chief substitutes. To our coaches a debt of gratitude is owed. They are men who are interested in the means not the end, they are men who are inte t d res e more in the boys than in victory. Though Central's season was low on victories, it was high in spirit. 117 r 1 N. LaChance, G. St. Laurent, J. Or: BASKETBALL VARSITY TEAM Front Row: A. Monacco, C. Verduchi, Coach Marcoccio, E.

For the second year the team was under the tutelage of our popular Andy Marcoccio, assisted by Major Curtin. Coach Marcoccio, handicapped by not being on the Central faculty, worked diligently to mold a winning team. Many days Coach Andy gave up his lunch period to hurry over to Central from his Doyle Avenue School to check on his boys or to search for new talent. As a result, Central enioyed one of its most successful seasons of recent years. The mainstays of the team the first semester were Co-Captains Cleto Verduchi and Errol Hunt, Owen Taylor, Fred DeQuattro, and Alfred Manoco. With the loss of Fred and Cleto at graduation, their places were ably filled by Ted Woods, Walter Larrivee, Ronald Johnson, Clarence Lassitor, Tom Meccurio, and Theodore Sailor.

Under the capable direction of Mr. Marchetti, the newspaper is rapidly meeting the approval of the student body. The Centralite staff is composed of students willing to give up their extra period and almost every night after school. As these students know it is not an easy task to put out ci newspaper as there are a number of things to do. The advertising first must be secured, the re- Mr. Joseph Marchetti, Advisor.

The copy must then be re- written and revised. Then the paper is sent to the publishers where the dummy is pasted up and then after what seems an eternity the paper comes to Central. The students then must unpack and fold the papersp and then try to sell them. They are rewarded only when they see the pleasant gleam in the eyes of the thrilled student body.

These include shelving books, arranging book displays, setting up projects with the librarian, helping in the filing of cards and pamphlets, and processing periodicals and new books for library use. The library auxiliary gains professional library ex- perience that will be useful to them in many fields after graduation. The members of the auxiliary are helpful in Central's busy school library. The librarian has a waiting list of students who desire membership in the auxiliary, which is limited at present to fourteen students. Front Row: C. Della Porta, G. Soltys, E. Christo- Fifth Row: L.

The exuberant Centralites descended upon the Pine Street Bowling Alley, where they made strikes and spares galore, the Y.M.C.A., where swim- ming lessons were given, and the Shipyard Ice Skating Rink, where they spent many Thursday afternoons, with whoops of joy. Our eager girls not only gained physical health but derived great pleasure from it. All of them are looking forward eagerly to any other sports that will be offered. SWIMMING TEAM Front Row: C.

Our Christmas performance has become traditional, and the list of twenty numbers includes Moiart, Haendel, Arcadelt, and Palestrina. The Girls' Ensemble, too, is traditional. It has been in existence for about twenty years and performs the more difficult works. The camaraderie, and espirit de corps helps them to do the fine work for which they are justly famous. They have sung locally hundreds of times, and their performances have taken them to Boston, to New Hampshire, and Maine, for Rotary, for hospitals and once for the National Education meeting in Boston. Mrs. Beatrice Warden Roberts is the accompanist. Mr. George F. Potier is the teacher and conductor. 134 BOYS VOICE B. Milliken, B. Hyatt, I. Cooper, R. G Jutras, A. Marzilli, R. Barra. Top rduchi, O.

The Main Office, responsible for the course of study, instructional policies and methods, is constantly working with the teaching staff in organizing and preparing its many reports. The Associate Office besides publishing attendance bulletins, keeping attend- ance records and records of student's marks is responsible for maintaining discipline in the school. The Vocational Office exercises general supervision over the courses of study of the ten departments that make up the division. The S.A.O. is a very essential factor in Central as it handles all money involved from the sale of tickets. It also handles the budget system, and records concerning the budget. The office is responsible for the issuing of athletic equipment. 137 P. Masterson, S. Whitley, L.

Providence, however, was not a geographical accident, but an ideal, a way of life, a Paradise sought by the persecuted and oppressed. The Providence which Roger Williams founded was not a refuge but a haven that gave people a place - a place never known before - a place where all would enjoy the precious priviliges of equality and toleration. Providence was the beginning of a new way of life, a life which George Washington more than 100 years later recognized as unique and wonderful. We who will be tomorrow's leaders must endeavor to impart to Providence a freshness, a vitality, a difference which shall pave the road for greater understanding and renewed brotherhood. We must continue as trail blazers, hewing the way through a wilderness which preaches brotherly love but portrays prejudiced and ignorant behavior. But before we can contribute anything to humanity we must understand ourselves. We must throw off the shackles of conformity and apathy, and stand as individuals. As we grow older we must leave the gang where our identity is lost and live for ourselves. We must strive to instill some purpose in our lives, to seek the truth, to do what is fair and right and beneficial to the maiority. Not only must we be true to ourselves but we must remember, Whatsoever Ye Would that Men Should do unto You, Do Ye so Unto Them. Roger Williams founded a haven for individuals who had courage to leave the masses and follow their own beliefs and convictions. As spiritual descendants of such pioneers it is our duty to uphold the principles for which they were persecuted and oppressed. Our parents and teachers have laid the foundation for our lives, but we must build the rest from within ourselves before we can do anything to better anyone else's life.
