FRESHMAN The summer came and went, and we, the class of 1967 entered the English High School Freshman Annex early in September of 1963 to begin an interesting experience. We soon became familiar with our master-in-charge Mr. Gillis, and with the rest of the fine faculty. At the end of October we received our first report cards despite our wishing that the IBM Machine would break down. Better luck next time! The schoolboy football season opened as our mighty team beat B.C. High, South Boston, and Boston Trade. Then on November 16 at Russell Field in Cambridge, Rindge Tech upset English by a score of 8-0 and ended our 19 game winning streak, the longest in the state. An event occurred on Friday, November 22, 1963 that no boy shall ever forget. By the time school ended that day rumors had already been circulating that President Kennedy had been shot, but no one knew for sure until they got home to find it true. Vice-President Johnson was im- mediately sworn in as our new President. The traditional Thanksgiving Day football game was played as scheduled the following Thursday, despite the assassination of the Presi- dent. However, at the beginning of the game, 20,000 fans rose from their seats in Harvard Stad- ium to honor the memory of the late John F. Kennedy. Half-time music by both bands was eliminated. At the end, English had scored another win over arch-rival Latin. Our Swimming Team had a great year as it finished first in the state, but all other teams were in the process of rebuilding. In the later half of the year, we took the NEDT Tests to determine how smart we were. As our first year came to a close, all of us look- ed forward to moving into the main building on Avenue Louis Pasteur in the Fenway.
