A YEAR TO REMEMBER This has been our year. Our time of glory. Think back. Would you have missed it for anything? . The wild jubilation. . The bitter disappointments. . Our teams— the pride of victory; the sting of defeat. But always, the Class of ’63. The Class of Progress; yet, the link with the past. . The old traditions revived. . New ideas tried; . Changes for the better. Could any other c lass have been more worthy of being the last senior class “on the Hill?” To respect and love the old L.H.S. for its memories; to forge ahead and lay the foun- dations for tomorrow’s successes? Think back . . . Remember. Let this 763 MAGNET take you back .. . to relive your three years as a class and your year as seniors ... your year to remember. Pigs Barton iy iC deerntea ‘

It was with anticipation more than anxiety that the mighty “Class of °63” entered the hallowed halls of L.HS. With three successful years at M.A.G. behind us, we felt fully prepared to wel- come any challenge “on the hill.” We set out to prove our worth and our first chance came in October, 1960, when Jo Ann Murphy took first prize in the five- minute speech contest with her talk on “Juvenile Delinquency.” In February, 1961, several members of our class participated in the Elk’s Oratory Contest and Judie Girouard went on to win third prize in state com- petition with her talk, “The Challenge of Tomorrow for the Youth of Today.” Even at this early stage, our boys’ athletic ability was apparent. All sports had representatives from the Class of ’63. Dick Barry, Dave DeCarolis and Nor- man Ferrera made the varsity basket- ball team. Barry Cabana, Joe Hines, Dave Hunter and Buzz Moran won first prize in the North Worcester County Re- lay and brought back a shiny new tro- phy for the L.H.S. collection. We were also well represented by Dave De- Carolis, Bob Hudson, Bill Laprade, and CLASS Frank L’Etoile on the varsity baseball team, which became North Worcester County champs. In March, we became the envy of the Class of ’61 when we selected our col- legiate style class rings. Our last activity of the year was to elect our Junior Class officers. We voted Gary White, president; Chalk Antonucci, vice-president; Donna Mauro, secretary; and Marie Brideau, treasurer.
