Many of these have been forgotten, however, the most cherished memories will be related in this, our class history. So now, let us highlight the events which contributed to making our high school years ones to be remembered forever. Our freshman year held for us many new experiences. After becoming adiusted to all the different aspects which accompany a secondary school, we elected our class officers. We chose Robert DeBragga, president, Thomas Schackner, vice president, Judith Main, secretary, and Barbara Stowell, treasurer. The Student Council members representing us were Peter Davis and Santina Faillace. Our first social event, which occurred in October, was The Freshman Party. With Ronnie Gardner providing the music, we had an enjoyable time as well as becoming acquainted with our new classmates. One of the "greats" of our freshman year was the performance of "Time Out For Ginger" directed by Mrs. Cullinane. Judith Chick took the leading role and her splendid performance will not be forgotten. Our class really came into its own when we put on our first talent show. The theme was "Welcome Home Alumni" and proved to be a big success. We were now sophomores, and felt quite at home at S.H.S. Chosen as class officers for the coming year were Peter Davis, president, Everett Flagg, vice president, Doris Masofsky, secretary, and Joan Miller, treasurer. Representing our class in the student Council were Robert DeBragga, James Drury, Linda Arnold, and Santina Faillace. The big social event of the year was the Sophomore Hop with its theme "Heaven Was Never Like This." lt was a most gala affair under the chairmanship of James Drury. The Sophomore Talent Show "Fabricant's Fabulous Follies" served a dual purpose. ln addition to providing entertainment for our audience, we uncovered much hidden talent. ln April, seven cheerleaders were chosen from our class, Captain Sandra Pignataro with her squad consisting of Jean Wilkinson, Helen Cowell, Joan Miller, Mary Shea, Patricia Planchon, and Barbara Stowell. The spirit so typical of Stonington High, was heightened even more under the leadership of these seven girls. LASS IHUISTURY Our Junior Year, which we now entered, was to hold for us many happy memories. The officers of our Junior Class were, Thomas Schackner, president, John Boucher, vice president, Helen Cowell, secretary, and Patricia Thrall, treasurer. Student Council members representatives were: James Drury, Everett Flagg, John Mathewson, Patricia Planchon, Patricia Thrall, and Linda Arnold. Our lettermen in football were: Fred Anderson, Clifford Morey, Everett Flagg, John Boucher, John Mathewson, and Frank Luzzi. David Johnson also assisted the team as manager. Other sports where boys received their letter, were track with John Boucher, Frank Luzzi, and Clifford Morey and basketball with Everett Flagg. April of this year brought our unforgettable New York trip, under the supervision of Mr. Foley. It was a first trip to the big city for many students, a trip full of wonderful experiences for all. We will never forget the United Nations buildings, all the shows, the hilarious experiences in the hotel, along with all the events which accompany a vacation in New York City. ln March of this year the Junior members of the National Honor Society were chosen: Alice Brown, Thomasine Panceria, Sandra Pignataro, Patricia Thrall, Antoinette Lidestri, Elizabeth Godomsky, John Bennett, David Johnson and Robert Hildebrand. "Almost Paradise" was the theme we chose for our beautiful and romantic Junior Prom. In a gala display of white carnations our Queen, Patricia Thrall, was crowned by our president, Thomas Schackner, Patricia ascended the throne attended by her court: Sandra Pignataro, Janet Hobart, Patricia Planchon, Doris Masofsky, Helen Cowell,and Jean Wilkinson. Tears of ioy were in each one's eyes as we looked upon this lovely scene. Finally we began our Senior Year, and our long awaited dream for a new school was fulfilled. lts future depended a great deal on our example. To lead our class in this final endeavor we selected Thomas Schackner, president, John Boucher, vice president, Antoinette Lidestri, secretary, and Patricia Schackner, treasurer. Student Council members were: president, James Drury, Fred Maloney, Everett Flagg, secretary-treasurer, Linda Arnold, Patricia Planchon, and Patricia Thrall, The Senior Talent Show with its theme "Homecoming Weekend" was a complete success and a triumph for co-chairmen Fred Maloney and Pat DeBernardo. Many thanks for Mr. McKenna for his help in putting on this show. The Brown and White officers of this year were: editor-in-chief, Pat Schackner, assistant editor, Eleanor Powers, sports editor, Nancy Linderson, business manager, Helen Cowell, and circulation manager, Antoinette Lidestri. Under the leadership of these seniors our fine school newspaper continued. Our last social event was the Senior Prom headed by James Drury and Linda Arnold, an event which turned out to be a great success. The biggest event of the year was our trip to Washington, D. C., which we as class- mates will never forget. Now we are preparing for graduation and realize our high school days are iust about over. What will the future hold, we ask ourselves? With the help of God may we all achieve our goal, no matter what it may be. We thank S. H. S. for giving us an excellent foundation, preparing us for our life ahead. Ten years from now when we all think back over these past four wonderful years, each and everyone of us will say "I am proud l graduated from Stonington High School." PATRICIA SCHACKNER SANDRA PIGNATARO TIHIIE CLASS WILL We, the class of I958, being of sound body, if not of mind, do will our traits, talents, and interests to deserving under- classmen, with the sincere hope that they will get as much fun from their four years at Stonington High School as we have: I, Louis Clark, do leave my love for guns to Pat McSparren. I, Pat Planchon, do leave my stylish wardrobe to Linda Sorenson. I, Frank Luzzi, do leave 80 of my 230 pounds to Joseph Evans, as he needs it more than I do.

I, Anne Vigue, do will my efficiency to Ann Wibberly. I, George Tourville, do leave my noticeably good looks and good build, to any underclassmen fortunate to have both, with the reminder to eat "Wheaties."

ALICE BROWN JUDITH CHICK ANTOINETTE LIDESTRI CLASS PRKCIIPHIECY Somewhere in the stilled metropolis a clock chimed twice. It was a dark and gloomy morning, the air was frosty, and the slow drizzle of the eve before had frozen on the New York streets. A trim little sportscar exceeding all speed limits shot down the boulevard. Desperately I tried to dodge, but-CRASH!! My last recollection was that of a pretty nurse, who was bathing my face with cool water. Dimly I recognized my old class- mate, Pat Thrall. "What happened?" I questioned weakly. "Never mind now," she answered. l fell asleep, wonclering what had happened to my little Corvet. When I awoke the next day, badly bruised and unhappy, I heard a decidedly firm voice in the hall: "Is this an efficient hospital? Why hasn't my mail been delivered yet? I must have it immediately." Well, well, if it wasn't my old classmate, Mary Shea. Pat later told me that Mary had broken her arm the previous week in a car accident. She had been on her way to Florida with Judy Hughes, Doris Masofsky, Janet Hobart, and Sandra Pignataro, all of whom were on their way there to act as models. That afternoon, Pat permitted Mary to visit me. She was still fuming because her l mail had been delayed. "Now, I can't keep up on the news," she mourned. "l was determined to keep up with all the girls and now all those letters will be lost." "TeIl me about the girls," I asked? "Remember Santina Faillace? She is tap dancing in New York and makes plenty of money with huge classes, Elisabeth Mebert is running a beauty shop with Anne Cole as her partner in New York, Pat Schackner is in charge of the gym classes at dear old S.H.S., Lucia Meserve is the "Big Boss" of the Physical Education Department of the New London Schools, Betty Godomsky is the Head of the Art Department at Stonington, and Antoinette Lidestri is the head of the Busi- ness Department there, also. Just then my doctor came in and said that I could leave in two days. The day I left I saw Arlene Mitchell, who was the night supervisor at the hospital. She said Jackie Sousa was the day supervisor at the same hospital, and that James Drury and Thomas Schackner were interning there. To recuperate from my iniuries I went back to my old home town of Stonington. I was walking down Trumble Avenue when by chance I met Sandra Roderick, who was happily married and holding down a very prosperous job as a secretary. She told me the girls who were already married, Cynthia Robert, Judy Fusaro, and Frances Brooks, were among those she mentioned. I was delighted to hear that there was a musical in town. Sandra told me that some of our former classmates were in it. Feeling very bored, I decided to go to see the musical. To my surprise I found that Pat DeBernado was producing the show. The curtain went up and standing on the stage was Judy Chick, whom I hadn't seen in years. Opposite her was David Johnson portraying the role of an eccentric old man. In the second scene I was pleased to find Eugene Pine playing the role of the hero. At intermission, as I walked into the lobby of the theater, I saw Joe Cangelosi and John Boucher in striking Air Force uniforms. We conversed about old times and I found out that many of our boys had entered the service. Lee Barber and George Tourville, who had entered the Navy, were stationed at Quonset Naval Base. Bernie Steadman and Len Novak, also in the Navy, were stationed at the Submarine Base in Groton. John told me that Ben Turrisi, John Marcotte, and Gustav Des- saules had also entered the Air Force and were stationed at the Biloxi Air Base in Mississippi. I left the lobby and returned to my seat to see the rest of the play. The third act curtain was slowly rising and in the maze of colored lights I noticed John Lopes, giving Wendell Whipple some last minute instructions before his song. The play went on and I thoroughly enioyed the afternoon. After I left the theater, and while I was walking to my car, I bumped into Fred Maloney, who was currently singing with the "Fred Waring Glee Club." We talked for a while, and I told him what had happenec to me in New York. "Say," he said, "Why don't we go out tonight? I know where there is a very gooc orchestra and excellent food." I didn't want to refuse and after all was out to recuperate, so I said, "Why certainly, Fred, I'd love to go." I went home, ate, and picked up the evening paper. Glancing through the sport: page I came upon an article written by Harry Higgins. The article said that cliff Morey and John Mathewson were now play ing for the New York Giants. I remembe admitting to myself that if anyone in ou class could make the pro ranks it was thosi two boys. I turned the television set on for a whili and was looking at a quiz program wher there was a bulletin that said, "Professor Joh: Bennett and his colleague, Dr. Kenneth Yates assisted by Dr. Robert Hildebrand and Di Gerson Friedman, have iust discovered a nev alloy that will revolutionize the rocket in dustry." Well, everyone is holding true tl form, I admitted. An hour later the door bell rang and Frei came in. "All set?" he said. I put on my coat and left. We arrived at a quaint little night-clu CLASS IPIRUIPIHIECY alled the "Crossroads," and went in. We sat Iown, ordered, and leaned back for an inter- vstlng evening. To my surprise The Hi-Fi- lour was the orchestra playing. I recognized Berry Vernierl at the drums, Steve Volinsky t the sex, Nancy Linderson at the piano, nd John Williams who I noticed was in Ken 'ates' place. After their song ended Fred and wandered over to their table. lt had ertalnly been a long time since I had seen ny of them. Gerry told me that Garth header and Wayne Cale had gone into the irmy and Frank Luzzi and Everett Flagg vera about to break into the Pro Football anks. John told me that he was happily married and had two children. Nancy asked l I had heard about all the new teachers at ur old alma mater. Sha said that Janet Foley nd Paul Cravinho were teaching business ndar Antoinette lidestrlg Thomesine Panciera ras head of the math department, Juliette ont was teaching Home Economics: Betty Vard was head of the English Department, nd Ann Murphy, Helen Brophy, and Anne Iollins were helping the principal with some f the secretarial work. It was getting rather ite so Fred and I bade the orchestra farewell nd left. The next day I awoke quite late and by the me l'd finished attending to some business was late in the afternoon. Feeling rather ungry I decided to go to the See Village ar a bite to eat. After ordering my dinner sat looking about me. A young man started omlng toward me and I recognized Mike lsk. He sat down and we started talking. le told me that Eddy DeFrias and he owned te Sea Village now and that he had Daniel ionsalves managing it. We talked for a rhlle longer and I learned that William Hays ad set up a photography studio and was tklng the senior pictures at S. H. S. Speaking f S. H. S., he happened to mention that 'onald Noel, Dick Schackner, and Custodio abello were teaching there in the industrial apartment, Fred Anderson was the gym tstructor, and Paul Previty with William ltzgerald were teaching Driver Training. Mike Iso told me that Wallace Stedman had a urge dairy farm, from which he got his dairy roducts. After my interesting talk and delicious Inner, I left to go spend a quiet evening at ome. Optimistic soul that I am. My quiet venlng turned into a "rip roaring" party. Having heard I was In town a number of ty classmates had decided to take this even- ig to visit me. Well, at least I found out rhat a few. more of my classmates were olng. Ann Cataffe told me that she was a labora- ary technician at the Westerly Hospital and rlgltte Tocker was the head supervisor of ursas there. She also told me that Joan Cray nd Jackie Jeffrey were nurses at the hospital. From the round of general talk I learned tat Lllllan Bell, Carla Graves, Dorine Donath, larcia Wolff, Harriet Main, Gerry Reardon, orrine Morrow, and Carolyn Pont were sec- itaries. I found out that Harvey Thorp, Ed lallington, Francis Woyclk, James Behan, and obert Macalonl were ln the Coast Guard, nd Jon Tattersall was teaching at the Coast iuard Academy. Pat Planchon told me that she was work- ing as a secretary and that she had heard that Eleanor Powers was Dean of Girls at Pembroke, Mariorie Sears was a well known woman lawyer, Alice Brown was teaching Chemistry at New London High School, and Elaine Babonas was a featured soloist at Carnegie Hall. As Ken Calkins was at the party, I went over and talked with him. True to my expecta- tions he said that he owned a prosperous grocery store. I asked him if he knew what Herbert Arnold and Peter Harmon were do- ing. He said that both, being construction engineers, were at work building a new high school for the town of Stonington. Working with them, heading the construction crews, were Robert Rose, Armand Morrissette, Harry Way, John Connolly, Louis Clark, Leonard Hedin, and Anthony Henry. Ken also added that Bob DeBragga was still winning awards at his amateur radio set and was now rated as the top "Ham" Radio operator in the whole United States. Barbara Stowell came in and I learned from her that she was teaching in an elemen- tary school in Providence, also that Ann Palmer was teaching in the same school system. Barbara said that she had heard that Brenda Scussell owned a very large horse ranch if I cared to go riding. She also added that Paul Songdahl owned a Trailer Park right near Brende's ranch. She had kept track of Jeanie Wilkinson, who was secretary to the Superintendent of Schools in Westerly, Ernest Evans. She had also kept in touch with Joanie Miller, who was now teaching dancing lessons in New Lon- don. While talking with Pat Crowley, who was working as a receptionist, I found that Roger Allen was managing the local A 8- P, Donald Brayman was in the Navy, with Ed Steele and Larry McGuinness, and that Anne Vigue, lda Vars, and Agnes Wheeler were working as secretaries for the same concern as Pat. After I was comfortably settled in my seat on the plane, the stewardess came down the aisle toward me and who should it be but Helen Cowell. Will wonders ever ceasel Helen and I got to talking and trading news about the other members of our class. I found that Jackie Laing, Priscilla Holdridge, and Rose Serrano were also flight stewardesses. Helen told me that Bob Burdick and Bill Brown were our pilot and co-pilot. Sitting a few seats down from me on the plane I noticed Linda Arnold. While talking to her I found that she was a representative of the Women Voters' League on her way to a convention. Linda told me that Loretta Mitchell was secretary to the president of the General Electric Co., Samuel Green. She also said that Judy Teixeira was a secretary at the same firm. Traveling as her secretary was Joyce Colprit, and as her advisor, Orrin Handley. I experienced a great feeling of satisfac- tion on the rest of the trip home. At last I know iust what everyone in my class had chosen for their Iife's work, and I wouldn't have to wonder anymore.

HARRY LAWTON Supervisor of Music CHORUS The activities and achievements of the Music Department at Stonington High School the past year have surpassed those of other years because of the better working conditions in the new music room, in the auditorium and on stage. Under the new schedule we have had four separate choral groups which have been combined for the presentation of large concerts at Christmas and in May. ln addition to the mixed choral groups, our special girls' ensemble, The Key- notes, has had an especially busy year as has the boys' Senior Quartet. Prob- ably the Keynotes greatest success was in the concert with the Westerly Singers after which they received enthusiastic notices in the press. S.H.S. was represented at the Connecticut All-State Concert in Hartford by a group made up of Jacqueline Sousa, Eleanor Powers, Nancy Linderson, Elaine Babonas, Frederick Maloney and Wendell Whipple. We also had a representative delegation at the New England Music Festival in New Hampshire. With an outstanding Spring Concert and special music at graduation, the year was a busy and inspiring one under the dynamic leadership of Mr. Lawton. BAND During the past year our school band became a successful and important part of the program at Stonington High School under the able direction of Mr. Grzyb. Making its first public appearances in the latter part of the football season, the band went on to offer achievements in the all-school Christmas Concert and in its own Spring Concert. With a concentrated drive for uniforms under way and requests for appearances at civic functions coming in, the band has become another link in forging the vital spirit of S.H.S. , MR MATTHEW GRZYB Director of Band ' . f L Xa 5 ! 2. n , .

FOOTBALL 4 11957 The performance of an athletic squad cannot always be iudged by a quick glance at the won-lost record The 1957 Stonington football squad, in the face of a stiff schedule and rebuilding program, bowed in seven o eight contests. Although hampered the first half of the season by a series of iniuries, flu virus, and inexperience, the spiritec Bear eleven showed steady improvement after overcoming these handicaps and in the latter part of the campaigt were playing a much better brand of ball than the record would indicate. At one time during October, twenty seven varsity performers were hit with the flu, which also forced Head Coach Woodrow Douville to miss practice sessions and postpone the Killingly game. The season's opening action took place at the Athletic Field September 14, when the first Eastern Connecticu Conference Round Robin was held. ln abbreviated clashes, the Bears broke even, blanking Killingly 6-O, anc dropping a 13-O verdict to Fitch. Succeeding' Saturdays saw losses to Woodrow Wilson, Mt. Pleasant, Plainville Fitch, Putnam, and on Armistice Day a hard fought 21-12 loss to Westerly. On November 16, the hungry Bear: clawed Killingly to the tune of 31-7, thus improving on last year's cellar finish in the E.C.C. ln a festive Thanks giving Day setting, including a live Bear mascot, Stonington dropped a heartbreaking 14-8 game, featuring the explosive power running of iunior halfback, Mike Saddow. The Bear defensive unit, displaying a hard-hitting forward wall, had the earmarks of Line Coach Art Carlin's hard training. Stonington, led by aggressive all-state first team tackle, Captain John Mathewson, held five ot its opponents to two or less touchdowns. Teaming up with Mathewson were versatile "Butch" Morey, Frank Luzzi, Len Novak, Captain-elect Bill Walsh, Allan Whewell,Joe Morosini, and Mike Johnson. After being blanked in the first three games, Coach Douville was able to perk up the offensive game of his charges, and he kept team spirit high throughout the season. An outstanding iob was done all season in the back- field by scrapping halfback John Boucher, plus a four-year varsity veteran and ace punter Ev Flagg and Ec Kearney, Joe Andaloro, Saddow, also quarterback Charlie Wood and Gerry Drury. Both the J.V. team, under Coach George McKenna, and the Bear Cubs, guided by Coach Donald Ostigny, showed well in their games, pointing to a bright football future for Stonington High School. . s 1 NL.

BASKETBALL - 1957-58 Encountering some of the top school-boy quintets in Connecticut and Rhode lsland, the Stonington High School basketball team has found the 1957-58 schedule to be a difficult one. An enormous rebuilding task was in store for Coach Morris Fabricant and Assistant Coach Robert Shea, since after the 1957 graduation, a ten member squad was reduced to iust one player with any appreciable varsity ex- perience. Thus considering the amount of front line experience each squad member has had prior to this sea- son, the spirited Bears have played surprisingly good basketball and have progressed noticeably in the seconc half of the season. The Bears began the season in the spanking new gym with a convincing win over North Kingston, and aftel eight or nine tough games, have begun to look impressive as inexperience wears off. In winning three straight Stonington has walloped E.C.C. member, Norwich Tech, lO5-39 and 90-38 and has edged Putnam 47-43. Although contending with such skilled teams as the Rhode Island class-A champs LaSalle, runner-up Westerly Pawtucket West, Wilcox Tech, and the U.R.l. frosh, the smaller, hustling Bear five have shown their mettle anc have never stopped battling. Leading the Brown and White forces this year is Captain Everett Flagg, a solid rebounder, who missed the entire previous season due to a leg iniury. Also included on the squad are steady backcourt performer Charlie Wood-the only man who has played a season of varsity ball, Mike Saddow, who saw very limited action las' year, aggressive Ed Kearney, scrapping senior Mike Sisk, and Otto Senior. Others seeing considerable actior are a pair of promising sophomore sharp shooters, Gene Good and Mike Stanley, as well as Gerry Drury, Bernie Delicato, and Ollie Sisk. The Bears have had their share of bad breaks. Bill Beal was forced to sit out the first half of the schedule witl a foot iniury, and towering soph Dick Williams had iust begun to give the team a lift when he sustained an arn iniury. Although experiencing some rough going, improving Stonington still has a chance, with a few more win: over Connecticut teams, for post season play in the C.l.A.C. tourney. And by winning, or tying for, the E.C.C title, the Bears would gain the needed third leg on the trophy to retain it permanently. This would be the seconc E.C.C. trophy in the permanent possession of Stonington. The next two or three basketball campaigns appear promising. Only Flagg and Mike Sisk will graduate ir June and this iunior and sophomore studded team is gaining valuable experience which can only be obtainec from actual game competition. Another favorable prospect is the iunior varsity team which has dropped only two games to date.

TRACK - 1958 The i958 track season for Stonington High School will see a small but proficient number of returning letter men from last year's successful squad to brighten the T958 track and field picture for Coach Arthur Carlin. The Bear strength will be greatly increased by a solid group of field performers. Captain "Butch" Morey should prove to be a consistent scorer in his specialty, the iavelin. ln the shot, Stonington has a twosome whicl should be unequaled in this area. Frank Luzzi and John Mathewson made a steady habit of finishing l-2 in thi: event last year and will most likely continue this practice in l958. Mathewson will head the list of discus throw ers. Also helping out with the weights will be Dave Johnson, a veteran of three season's competition. Mike Saddow will perform in the high iump and pole vault. Headlining the middle distance and distance running will be iunior Ed Kearney, who gained all-state honors las season by copping the grueling half-mile. Although the Bears are not especially potent in the dash department Coach Carlin will be working hard to develop some of the promising underclass talent. Also, indications shov the versatile Saddow might be of help in the dashes. The Stonington squad will be looking to better last season's second place finish in the C.l.A.C. state meet, an: for the fourth consecutive year bring home the class "B" winners trophy from the stiff competition at the Easter: Seaboard Meet in Schenectady. Of course the team will also work hard in defense of the Eastern Connecticut Conference title. This wa: formerly fought out in a triangular meet. However, a maior development on the Stonington sport scene during the past year has been the expansion of the E.C.C. to include Norwich Tech and Waterford, as well as Fitch Killingly, and Stonington. Putnam is also a potential member. Thus the new, larger conference means adder competition and therefore greater prestige to the champion in track and all other sports. This added incentive should also help the Bears well on the way toward another E.C.C. championship. -dig --ab. lhxslidqsnx --A BASEBALL SQUAD irst row: Coach Fabricant, Joseph Morosini, Edward Kearney, Charles Wood, Captain Everett Flagg, Michael Saddow, Thomas Law. Second row. lichael Sisk, Michael Savin, Gerald Drury, Robert Thibdeau, James Levanti, Eugene Good. Since graduation cost Stonington seven of the T957 starting nine, a challenging rebuilding iob faces Bear nach, Morris Fabricant. However, the picture is not bleak for i958 since several boys with at least one season of arsity competition under their belts return to form the nucleus of a spirited squad which should quickly de- elop into a winning combine. Leading the list of returnees will be Captain Everett Flagg, who has earned a place on the all-conference roster, nd who has been starting third baseman and part-time pitcher for the past three years. Joining Flagg will be econd baseman Gerry Drury, Mike Sisk, Charlie Wood, and Bob Duerr. The pitching staff may prove to be the key to the Bears' success, since all but one from last season's mound 'aff return, including Wood, Flagg, and Duerr. Receiving their pitches, in all probability, will be Joe Morosini 'ho should fill the gap left behind the bat. Several of last year's freshmen showed much promise on the diamond, and with a year of seasoning behind tem, should crack the starting line-up this year. Thus, the 1958 Stonington High School baseball team is looking forward to another successful campaign by ualifying again for a berth in the post season C.l.A.C. tournament, and by the retention of the Eastern Con- ecticut Conference championship. By copping the title, for the third consecutive year, in a playoff game with itch last season, the Bears gained the third leg on the E.C.C. trophy, thereby gaining permanent possession f it. This was the first time this had been accomplished, and Stonington will be out to gain the first leg on 'ie new trophy this year in an attempt to gain permanent control of this one as well. il 5 fi if , ,K - ff , K QV' Q ' ,i,,,5sW'S , R, Viv Y f J: X L ,rxji - 11. .. , f.1,' 5 1" ',fY-- '--' 34.21 an ont, fr-iitr-rg Captain Judith Hughes.
