MAGNET Leominster, Massachusetts iN DEDICATION . FACULTY. SCHOOL COMMITTEE SENIOR SECTION ACTIVITIES SPORTS . SENIOR PLAY DEDICATION We, the graduating class of 1952, respectfully dedi- cate our yearbook to Barbara Harrington, our classmate, who was confined to her hospital bed and was unable to attend her senior year at Leominster High School. We all sincerely hope for Barbara’s quick recovery. “Capt. Henrick Kurt Carlsen’s epic struggle to save the Flying Enterprise filled our newspapers with an inspiring story of courage beyond the call of duty, of single-minded determination to save property which had been entrusted to him, and of humility before his fellowmen and God. “He is devoted to his family. He will not capitalize on his fame. He simply wants to do well the job for which he was trained. A slight man physically, he looms high in stamina and courage. “When news of corruption makes us say, ‘What's the use of going straight? I might as well cheat a little; everyone else does!’, we can remember that the world is full of big and little ‘Capt. Carlsens’, each trying to get his own particular Flying Enterprise into port, each one trying to make his section of the world a little bet- ter for his having lived in it. “We hope that L.H.S. has given you a little of the courage, honesty, and humility exemplified by Capt. Carlsen.” This message from our principal, Mr. Davis, is typi- cal of the guidance he has given us during our three years on the “Hill.” As a whole, we offer our heartfelt thanks. — - ra = c pre” ; } The success of the Class of 52 is due to the understanding and guidance of our class advisors, Miss Lucia Piermarini and Charles F.

Class History Because of the wonderful co-operation of its members and leaders, the class of 1952 was a success in all its undertakings, such as proms, assemblies, plays, picnics, and dances. Chosen as officers for our sophomore year were James Stevens, president; Rene Comeau, vice president; Jean La Fortune, secretary; and Curtis Lanciani, treasurer; junior year Chester Fantozzi, president; Barbara Amadio, vice president; Jean Cragin, secretary; and Curtis Lanciani, treasurer; senior year John O'Donnell, president; Rene Comeau, vice president; Jean Cragin, secretary; and Roger DesRosiers, treasurer. Sophomore Party, 1949 The first major event that greeted the class of ‘52 at L.H.S. was the Sophomore Party, which was given for us by the class of 51 on November third. The juniors had done every- thing possible to make this party a memorable one. Prizes were awarded for the best dancers, and’entertainment was furnished by the juniors. Eddie Davis and his orchestra supplied the music. The newly arrived class of ’52 enjoyed themselves and got to know the upper classmen better. Winter Carnival During the week-end of February 17, 1950, the annual Winter Carnival was held. The main event was the sculpturing contest, which the class of 52 won. The winning entry was “Horn of Plenty.” Second place went to the class of ’50 for their “Cupid.” The class of 51 took third place with “Peter Rabbit.” Interclass Plays, 1949 In November of our sophomore year, the annual Interclass Play Contest was held. The entry of the class of 52 was “Billy's First Date.” The cast was Mary Jane Quirk, John Rogers, Robert Keogh, Nancy Brooks, Eleanor Hazzard, Geraldine Navaroli, Barbara Amadio, and Richard Brown. Charlene Roberts was the student director. The judges truly appreciated our first attempt at the drama because they awarded the class of ’52 the first prize. Horror Day One of the yearly occurrences on the “Hill” is National Horror Day. On this day all the girls come to school without any of the benefits of makeup. Straight hair, lipstickless lips, and old clothes are the style. The distinction of wearing only one earring was added to the day by the class of ’52. It’s fun while it lasts, but it’s a good thing that Horror Day comes only once a year. 42 The Better Speech Contests In our sophomore year at L.H.S., the representatives fro m the class of 52 in the Better Speech Contest were Joan Brown and Kathleen Nass. When we were juniors the judges chose Joy Boucher and Eleanor Hazzard to represent our class in the finals of the Better Speech Contest. That year James Stevens was also chosen as master of ceremonies. Louise Leighton and James Stevens were chosen to give their speeches as representatives from the Class of 52 in our senior year. Louise won honorable mention. Career Day, 1951 On November 14, 1951, the fifth annual Career Day was held. This day was started in 1946 by Mr. Robert C. Laserte, to give the students a better idea of the opportunities in certain vocational fields. Speakers from many different fields of work, as well as from colleges, addressed the students. They pointed out the possibilities in various occupations. The members of the Student Cabinet served as ushers. The students greatly appreciate these Career Days, and feel that they have been a help in choosing an interesting career. French Club The Christmas meeting of the French Club on December 17, 1950, was held at the home of Joanne Cole. After a brief business meeting, all spent the afternoon enjoying the Christmas spirit. Christmas songs were sung, poems were recited, and games were played. Refreshments were later served, making the entire meeting a complete success and one that will long be remembered by the French Club members of the senior class. Junior Prom In spite of the weather our Junior Prom was well attended and was a complete success. The beautiful decorations and Frankie Dee’s music provided a gay evening’s entertainment climaxed by the grand march. Our officers had a right to be proud of the work of the class. Sophomore Party As juniors, we were the hosts for the Sophomore Party held on January 5, 1951, at the high school, with music furnished by the Aristocrats. The assembly hall was beautifully decorated with green and white decorations, which were the colors of the class of '53. 44 Sophomore Party As juniors, we were the hosts for the Sophomore Party held on January 5, 1951, at the high school, with music furnished by the Aristocrats. The assembly hall was beautifully decorated with green and white decorations, which were the colors of the class of 53. Interclass Plays On May 29, 1951, the play contest was held again. This time our class presented a story of Mexican life, entitled “Sunday Cost Five Pesos.” Charlene Roberts was once again student director and did an excellent job. The cast was Ralph Eaton, Mary Jane Quirk, Sheila Picard, Louise Leighton, and Eleanor Hazzard. That year we not only won first prize again, but we also took the two best acting awards. The recipients of the awards were Mary Jane Quirk and Ralph Eaton. C.M.D.A. Meeting On November 28, 1951, the meeting of the Central Massachusetts Dramatic Associa- tion was held at the school. The dramatic clubs of St. Bernard’s, Fitchburg, and Leominster High Schools were represented. Entertainment and refreshments were furnished by the members of the Leominster club. Thanksgiving Dance On Novmber 22, 1951, the senior class held a Thanksgiving dance at the Leominster Recreation Center with Eddie Davis's orchestra providing the dance music for the enormous gathering. So many alumni attended that the affair was a re-union as well as a dance. Senior Assembly On December 5, 1951, a special assembly was presented by the senior class. The various acts, introduced by master of ceremonies John O'Donnell, included a Barber Shop Quartet, the Andrews Sisters and Bing Crosby, a jalopy full of students singing college songs, the Old MacDonald girls, duets by Nancy Brooks and Betty Panagiotes, and a dance by Eleanor Hazzard. George Dupee accompanied many of the acts on the piano. The hard work of the class in preparing this assembly was more than rewarded by the way in which it was received. Senior Prom On December seventh the senior class, led by their newly elected class officers, con- ducted an extremely successful Senior Prom. Decorations were in the class colors, green and white. After dancing all evening to the dreamy music of Pat Mulvane, the class as a whole went to D’Olympio’s Restaurant to eat and dance some more. During the meal a com- munity sing climaxed the whole wonderful evening. 46 2. a. e ROSS ry 50 Class Prophecy The times 19575 The scene: JACK O’DONNELL’S mansion in Leaminster, Massachusetts.

Make it so loud and strong That all will know that we're behind them. Give them a cheer for the days When they led us on to fame. Give them a cheer for the many ways That they’ve accomplished their aim. Let’s take them one at a time, And let’s do them justice too. And let’s make a little rhyme Like they gave for the White and Blue. Betty is a peppy gal As she leads our cheers. She never lacks for a pal As one is always near. Rosalie is our senior pet; A friend to all is she, And with a smile has always met Each new complexity. We have a girl named Norma Who helps us on our way As she leads us on to honor At the field each Saturday. € Tal ip 1p IR Tbe ID The cheerleaders this year did a very good job at the football games.

A girl that’s really full of pep As she leads us on to fame Is a girl who sure is hep, And Ellie is her name. A junior that we all know, Is Judy first and last As she jumps up high and low And leads those cheers so fast. Nancy jumps so very high To tell us who is right, And then tells us the reason why Our team should always fight. Marion tells us what to do As she leads our cheers, And to us is always true As she allays our fears. One that we can’t forget Is Maggie, our junior pal, And if you haven’t met her yet, Oh Boy! what a gal. Janie may be smaller than the rest But she surpasses them all, If not in size, at least in breath, ‘Cause she is “on the ball.” ee, i. =a. = see, ee oS 8S eo First row: Judith Pizzuti, June Wyman, Carolyn De Julio, Shirley Lanza, Madeline Perla, Gloria Caplette, Jane Donnelly, Jacqueline Carter, Marjorie Henry, Susanne -Caisse, Natalie Damon, Louise Leighton, Judy Coolidge, Carol Pitts, Joyce Lavalle, Janet O'Connell, Joan Gentile, Janet Carr, Ann Turano, Beverly Aucoin, Flora Smith.
