ri9 THE YEARBOOK pMsenkJ lij jhe dm ej nineieen je iiy-nine Weston Hi k Sck ool Weston, Massachusetts pa e three In deep and everlasting gratitude for her friendliness, help¬ fulness and efficiency, during her four years as secretary to the principal of the high school, the Class of 1949 dedicates this book to Mrs. Elaine C. Sinclair, with all our love and best wishes. page four HIGH SCHOOL Bl’ILDING COxMMITTEE Left to Right: Mr. Arthur Nichols, Mr. Harold Willis, Architect, Mr. Charles O. Richardson, Mrs. Marjorie Blaney, Mr. Edward B. Hubbard, Chairman, and Mr. John G. Brooks. The class of nineteen forty-nine takes this opportunity to extend its deepest gratitude, in behalf of the entire school department, to the School Building Committee and the School Re¬ construction Committee for their arduous and excellent work in the face of the almost unsur- mountable problems which have arisen during the past two years. RECONSTRl ' CTION COM .MITTEE Left to Right: Back row: Donaldson Ra McMullin. .Architect. First row: Mr. Edward B. Hubbard, Mr. Everett .Studley. and Mr. J. Robert . yers. Chairman. pa e five At no other time in the nearly three centuries of Weston’s history has the administration of its schools been confronted with so great and formidable problems as it was during the past two years. The extra duties imposed upon it by the loss of our high school building last spring were met with determination and logical action. Due to the fine work of the adrninistration, the schools operated with a surprising degree of efficiency during the difficult time c f reconstruction. SCHOOL COMMITTEE Left to Right: Mr. Anthony Brayton, Chairman, Mrs. Marjory Blaney, and Mr. Mortimer J. Farley. page SIX MR. RUSH The duties of the superintendent of the Weston Schools during the past two turbulent years have made it necessary more than ever that he be away much of the time. Therefore, Mr. Rush has been known to us chiefly as a veiled voice of authority, acting through his principals. We know, however, that, while he could not get to know each one of us, the future classes will feel his influence in a more personal way, and will profit by his present work toward the better¬ ment of the Weston Schools. MR. MUELLER The class of nineteen forty-nine and Mr. Mueller began their careers in Weston High School together, in the fall of 1945. During the past four years, we have grown more and more to respect his decisions as a principal, and to admire him as a person. In parting, we hope that his future years at Weston High will be as serene and untroubled as his past years here have been beset with difficulties. page seven Villette O.

She has always been a very active classmate ahd, judging by her constant good marks, we are sure that she will do a super job at Radcliffe, or Bates, where she plans to major in languages. Along with the fact that the honor roll has never been com¬ plete without her name, we will remember “Jo” as an active member of the Glee Club for four years, and in the choruses of “The Pirates” and “Rio Rico”; as “Janet” in “Stardust” and “Madge” in “George Wash¬ ington Slept Here”; as the sports editor of Chanticleer in 1947, and a member of the second team in basketball in 1947, and 1948; as a cheerleader for two years and the captain of that active group in 1949; as one of those few who won awards for excellence in Latin in 1946 and 1947; as one of the members of the Prom Queen’s court in 1947; and as art editor of the yearbook. With her ability to do so many things successfully, we are sure she will do well at college. Good luck, “Jo”. LOUISE ANTHONY The third grade brought Louise from Wellesley — graduation will take her to Pembroke to major in history or mathematics, in preparation for a career in teaching. If Louise sets her mind on teaching, the schools will have an expert, reliable teacher added to the ranks in a few years. To our knowledge, Louise has never failed to accomplish anything she has decided upon — in¬ cluding homework of any nature or length. The top of the honor roll will look empty without her name. But Louise will be remembered as one of the best guards on the basketball team for four years, as manager in 1947, and captain in 1948; for being “S” in the line of cheerleaders and never falling down; as Weston’s dele¬ gate to the Junior Red Cross Convention in 1947; for the character of Mrs. Douglas in “George Washington, Slept Here” in 1948; as an adornment to the Prom Queen’s court in 1948; for two years of contributing food and ideas to the Discussion Club; for four years in the Glee Club, acting as secretary in 1949; for her work on the hockey team for the last four years, and for being captain in 1948; for being class secretary in the senior year; and finally, for that too endless string of A’s, A’s, A’s! page fourteen CHARLES ARTHUR BARKER Arthur came into the class in the eighth grade from VV ' altham, and has been a valuable addition to the “Forty-niners” ever since. After graduation, he plans to go to King’s Point Academy with his friend, George Brouillette, to study for a career as a deck officer or a naval engineer. Arthur will be remembered for his magnificent work on the football field since 1945, and especially in 1948-1949, when he played varsity; for his Student Council position in 1946; for his melodious voice in the Glee Club in 1946-1947; for his contribu¬ tions to the Discussion Club in 1947-1948; for his Latin honors in 1946; for his basketball playing in 1947-1948; and especially for captaincy of the second team in 1948. He will do well wherever he goes, and we wish him luck. EDITH ANN BLANEY Edith has been with the ’49ers all the w ' ay from kin¬ dergarten. Her college plans look to W ells or Connecticut College for Women, and she hopes to go into landscape architecture after college. We shall re¬ member Edith for her unfailingly good disposition; for her sincerity when fighting for a cause; for her splendid work as chairman of the Junior Red Cross in 1948; for her work on the Graduation Committee; and for her long experience on the school magazine, as a reporter in 1946 and 1947, and as Editor-In-Chief in her senior year. Edith has been in the school play for two years, once in 1947 as “Marion” in “Stardust”, and in 1948 as Annabelle, the lead, in “George Washington Slept Here”; she has been in the Glee Club for four years and the Operetta for two; on the hockey team in 1945 and 1946, and “varsity” in 1947-1948, and manager in 1948; on the basketball team in 1948 and 1949; and finally we remember her ear nest campaigning for lost causes in the Discussion Club in her Junior and Senior year . page fifteen GEORGE BROUILLETTE “Frenchy” has stayed with us all the way from kinder¬ garten to graduation day and will leave V. H. S. to at¬ tend King’s Point Academy, hoping to come out a deck officer — and from then on it will be a dangerous thing to call George anything but “Commander Brouillette, Sir . Frenchy will be remembered for unfailing pleasantness and an even temper, even in the face of ir¬ ritated teachers and others; for his able class secretary¬ ship in the freshman year and an equally meticulous con¬ trol of the sophomore funds; for demonstrating speed on the football held since 1944, varsity from 1946-1948; for basketball in the freshman year; for an able reporting of all the boys’ sports as Boys’ Sports Editor of the school magazine in his junior year; for improving the Glee Club for the last four years; and for livening up the Discussion Club in 1947 and 1948. It will be King Point’s luck to gain a many-sided seaman. ROBERT BRUCE CAMPBELL Bruce’s pleasantly argumentative jaw has thrust its way through our history ever since the hrst grade. He says that Mr. MacFarlin hrst recognized his talent for talking, and spoke very highly of it, keeping Bruce after school on numerous occasions to explain precisely what he thought of Mr. Campbell’s silver tongue. Bruce has since demonstrated, however, that quickwittedness and a hair for speaking bring honor and rewards. He has been elected to the Student Council for the past four years and was president of that body in his junior year; was chosen as alternate representative on Good Govern¬ ment Day; and represented Weston on the Junior Town Meeting of the Air broadcast in 1949. Further, Bruce will be remembered for an excellent portrayal of Phil Ford in “Stardust” in 1947, and Newton P ' uller, the leading role in “George Washington Slept Here” in 1948. His two years of Glee Club and Discussion Club have not hurt his reputation for oratory. Bruce hopes to enter Boston University next fall to prepare for a career in teaching — Speech Arts, of course! page sixteen ALTA HELEN CHAMBERLIN Alta is a long term resident in the class of ' 49, having been with us since her entrance into kindergarten in 1936. She hopes to go to the Academy Moderne, in preparation for a career in modeling. We shall re¬ member Alta for her participation in Glee Club in 1945 and 1946; for her position on the basketball team in her sophomore year; and especially for being the captain of the second team in her senior year; for her work on activities in this yearbook; for her work in the chorus of “The Pirates of Penzance;” and finally for being chosen Prom Queen at our Junior Prom in 1948. BARBARA ANN COOK W ' e regret that we did not have more time to become acquainted with Barbara. However, since she joined our class only in March of the senior year, this was impossible. She came from Newton High, and she particii)ated in the Glee Club, there, in her freshman year. She was treasurer and secretary of the Aviation Club in her senior year at Newton, and was a member of the Cahary Club that same year. In her junior year she was a member of the Drama Club. Barbara plans to major in Pediatrics at Nashua Memorial Hospital School of Nursing, after which she will seek a career either as a nurse or an airline hostess. page set ' enteen SHIRLEY ANNE CUNNINGHAM “Shirl” is another member of the Forty-niners who started here in kindergarten and stayed with us all the way through. Her excellence in shorthand and typing has led her to plan to major in Secretarial Business at Hickok next year, after which she will ' make it her career. We remember Shirl for being head typist for the school magazine in the senior year; for her perform¬ ance in the “Pirates of Penzance” in the freshman year; for excellent playing as a guard on the first team in basketball during her junior and senior years, and being captain in her senior year; for her lively cheerleading in her junior year; for being our D. A. R. representative in 1949; and finally, for being a very pretty addition to the Queen’s Court at our junior prom. ROLAND INNES DICKSON Roland and his quiet ways became part of our class in the first grade. He was so quiet that nobody realized what interests and talents he had until late in high school. He is not sure which college he is to enter, but he hopes it will be Harvard, Northeastern, or B. U. He plans to major in geology or architecture, and make this his career. We remember him for all the time and work he put in as Photographic Editor of the yearbook; for the excellent job he did as property manager in “Rio Rico”, and stage manager in “.Stardust”, and “George Washington Slept Here.” He has been an active mem¬ ber of the Discussion Club in both his junior and senior years. Roland’s quiet ways and earnest desire to study will make him successful in college. page eighteen ANDREW JOSEPH DOUGHERTY Andrew Joseph Dougherty could not trust the Lincoln schools to manage themselves until the ninth grade, when he left Lincoln on the perilous journey through the Indian tribes to Weston. Andrew’s immediate proficiency in Latin won him awards his first two years, and his lasting interest in the noblest language is proved by his continuance in the Latin class with only four others. With such a background, Andy’s choice of a career in law or writing is almost a matter of course. His goal is Boston College and an A.B. degree. W’e re¬ member him for his copperplate handwriting; for his secretaryship throughout his Sophomore and Junior years; for his nimble piano playing in the orchestra (“Shiverin’ Fingers Dougherty and his Gypsy En¬ semble’’) ; for his Executive Committee work in the senior class; and, most important, for his excellent job as Editor-in-Chief of our senior yearbook. JOHN COOKE DOWD John joined us in the freshman year, and has been surprising us ever since with his ability to speak and to write w ' ell. Thus it seems only natural that he should want to major in Journalism and Law at Harvard, and to make one of these his career. John is in many activities. We shall remember him as Literary Editor of this yearbook; for his work on the Student Council in his junior year; for the effort he devoted to the school magazine, as the circulation editor, and later as Editor- in-Chief; for his splendid acting as “Arthur Scott’’, in “Stardust’’, and as “Steve Eldridge’’, in “George Wash¬ ington Slept Here’’; for his extremely active participa¬ tion in the Discussion Club for two years; and finally for being chosen, as a junior, to represent Weston High School on the New England Junior Town Meeting of the Air. With h is facility in speaking and writing, and his pleasant manner. John can’t help being a success, wherever he goes. pa nineteen FRANCES MAXINE EDMUNDS “Max” joined us in the first grade, and has been delight ing us continually through school with her friendliness. She plans to major in business at Business School, and to make this her career, or possibly she will be a medical secretary. We remember her for her performance in the chorus of both “The Pirates” and “Rio Rico”; for her work on the Outing Committee in the senior year; for her work as a typist for the school magazine in 1947 for her ushering at both “Stardust” and “George Wash¬ ington Slept Here”; for contributing a fine alto voice to the Glee Club for four years; for having gone out for hockey for four years; and for having played very well on the varsity for three years, and finally for her ex¬ cellent basketball as a forward on the second team for two years, and on the first team in her senior year. MARION RUTH GAGE Marion started with us in our baby days in kindergarten and has always gone along helping the class in any way she could. She plans to study at the Newton-Wellesley Hospital and make nursing her career. Marion began playing basketball in the eighth grade. In her sopho¬ more year, she was on the second team. We shall re¬ member Marion for her fine work as Red Cross Repre¬ sentative in the junior year; for her helpful work as costume assistant in 1946; for her help on the Class Outing Committee; for her singing in the chorus of the operetta; for her work on the Decoration Committee of the Junior Prom; for her entertaining performance as “Hester” in “George Washington Slept Here”; and finally, for her excellence in Latin which won two certificates for her. We think that Marion’s quiet, gentle manner will contribute greatly to making her a good nurse. page twenty DOUGLAS LEES HAMMOND “Doug” first joined us in the first grade, then he left in the eighth grade, only to return again in the eleventh. His clowning personality is well known to all of us and has given us many a laugh. Doug went out for football in his junior year, and has been on the varsity team in baseball for both his junior and senior years. He was on the Class Outing committee in his senior year, and was the chairman of the Orchestra committee for our Junior Prom. Doug is especially interested in music, and he likes to sing. He is not sure of his future plans yet. DANIEL HOWARD HILDEBRAND “Danny” joined us in the first grade, and has been on of the quietest members of our class. His aptitude in mathematics has led him to decide to major in this subject at the Spartan School of Aeronautics, and he ho[x?s to become a commercial pilot or an airline meteorologist. We remember him for his hard work on the Graduation Committee; for his gotxl work in mathe¬ matics and sciences; for contributing his voice to the Glee Club for one year. Danny has always been a quiet, studious boy, and we are sure that these qualities will make him well-liked and esteemed wherever he goes. page tu ' enty one CHARLES MILTON HOWELL “Charley’s” inquisitive face appeared in our class on the first day of kindergarten and he has remained inquisitive ever since. Charley has always been especially inter¬ ested in science and plans to major in chemical engineer¬ ing at Northeastern. He wants to have a career either as an engineer or as a research chemist. We shall re¬ member him for his work on the Prom committee; for his aid as Assistant Business Manager of this yearbook; for his active participation in the Discussion Club for two years; for his basketball playing during two years; and finally for his excellence in baseball. Charley has gone out for baseball for four years and has been on the varsity for two years as a pitcher. We hope Charley’s interest in everything and his skill in science will lead straight toward success for him. BARBARA ANN LACOY Barbara’s lively personality bounced right in with us on the first day of kindergarten and she has not yet calmed down. She is not too sure of her future plans, but she hopes to go into saleswork. We shall remember her for her work in the glee club for four years; for her splendid help as a typist for the school magazine, “Chanticleer”; for her helpful work on the Activities Cornmittee in the Senior year; for her ushering at the school plays, “Star¬ dust”, and “George Washington Slept Here”; and finally for her lively sense of humor which we are sure will amuse people wherever she goes. page twenty two JOHN MEN DELL LEWIS John Lewis joined our class ’way back in the kinder¬ garten, and has amazed us with his unusual aptitude at science ever since. John likes to fool around and make gadgets. He is also greatly interested in music. He has been in the glee club for four years, and in the orchestra also for four years. He has been in the chorus of two operettas, “The Pirates’ ’, and “Rio Rico’’. John is not sure of his future plans, but he thinks he may go to Harvard. JOSEPH A. MACDONALD “Joe” is another member who started with us in kinder¬ garten, and his cheerful face has stayed with us ever since. He is undecided about his college plans and future. He was a member of the Student Council in the eighth grade, and sang with the Glee Club for two years. He went out for baseball for three years and was on the X’arsity one year. He has played basketball for three years and has done a splendid job. He went with the team into the Tex ' h Tourney in 1948. We will remember Joe esi ecially for his cheery manner through all the ups and downs of school. pafie tu ' enty-three DAVID JAMES MARTIN Dave came campaigning into our class in the 6th grade, and he has been a rabid politician ever since. He is un¬ certain of his future plans, but thinks he might major in writing at Northeastern University. ' Afterwards he would like to be an author, or, fittingly enough, a politician. Dave has been on the staff of Chanticleer for two years, one as Joke Editor and the other as a columnist. He went out for football in 1945, and was an active member of the Student Council in his senior year. His boisterous manner livened up the Discussion Club in the junior and senior years. We’re sure his jovial and friendly manner will make him a good politican. ROSEMARIE MORSE “Rosy” started out with us in kindergarten. In the sixth grade she surpassed us all with her beautiful pen¬ manship, while the rest of us were still trying to make a round “O”. Rosy plans to major in teaching at Fram¬ ingham State Teachers College, after which she will be a Penmanship Supervisor or an Occupational Therapist. Rosy has been the circulation manager for the school magazine from 1947—1948, and served on the Gradua¬ tion Committee in our senior year. She was the as¬ sistant director and was the stage manager for “George Washington Slept Here” in the senior year. She has been in the glee club for four years, and has been out for basketball for four years. We are sure that Rosy’s beautiful handwriting will aid in making her a good penmanship supervisor. page twenty-four RICHARD ALAN MURRAY “Dick” started in with us in Kindergarten and left and returned several times before he really settled down to stay in his Sophomore year. His aptitude in English and his interest in good music have been evident. Dick plans to go to Massachusetts State College, and then seek a career in the United States Navy. He gave an excellent portrayal of “Mr. Prescott” in “George Wash¬ ington Slept Here” in his senior year. He has been in the Glee Club for three years; and has been out for foot¬ ball one year. We’ll remember Dick especially for his one true love — the “Whizzer.” FREDERICK JACKSON PERKINS “Freddie” joined our class in the fifth grade and has been doing all sorts of odd jobs to hvlp the class all the way through school. He has always been interested in the shop, and spends most of his time there. He was on the freshman squad in football in 1944. He has helj ed with the scenery and stage property for many school plays. Fred ' s helpful willingness to work should carry him far in the future. page tuvnty-five JOSEPHINE SUZANNE POLLOCK “Jo” joined us in the seventh grade. Now she is plan¬ ning to take the Nurses’ Training Course at St. Eliza¬ beth’s Hospital at Brighton. After this she will special¬ ize in pediatrics. We shall remember her for her fine work as chairman of the Activities Com.mittee in her senior year; as a very efficient ticker chairman and usher for the school play in 1948; for her singing in the Glee Club in 1946; for her excellence in Latin which won her three certificates, two in the freshman year and one in the sophomore year. We are sure that Jo will go far, for she has always shown an ability to work really hard at anything that is presented to her. DIANA POTTER Although “Di” didn’t join us until the 10th grade, her excellent cookies and cakes soon made her a great favorite. “Di” plans to major in interior decorating in art school, and to take it up as a career afterwards. We shall remember “Di” for her entertaining performances as Cynthia in “Stardust” and as “Rena Leslie” in “George Washington Slept Here”; for her persistent manner as class treasurer in 1948-1949; for contributing her soprano to the operetta for two years, and for her three year stint in the Glee Club, of which she was president in 1949; for the food and thoughts she contributed to the Discussion Club; for her work in hockey in 1948; for her poetry award in the same year ; and finally for her elec¬ tion to the Prom Queen’s court in 1948. “Di’s” won¬ derful cooking and her cheerful personality will make her welcome wherever she goes. page twenty-six DOROTHY LORRAINE RITTER DeDe”, with her great big hair-ribbons, joined us in kindergarten. She plans to attend secretarial school, and then to be a secretary to a buyer and merchandiser. She has ushered at school plays for two years, was a fine basketball guard in her senior year, has been a typist for “Chanticleer” for one year, and has added her soprano voice to our Glee Club for four years. Dotty was appropriately chosen to be a member of the Queen’s Court at our Junior Prom and was chosen “Miss Weston” at the “Co-Ed” in Allston. FRITZ ALBERT RITTER Fritz joined us in the first grade. He has always been wandering around shop and meddling with different things there. He has helped set up the scenery and the stage material for two school • plays, “Stardust” and “George Washington Slept Here.” He served on the Activities Committee in his senior year. His friendly personality is well known to all. He plan s to major in electronics under a four-year apprenticeship at General Electric, and then go into an electrical ap¬ pliance selling and repair shop. We wish him lots of success. S page tu niy-sei ' en JAVE VILMA ROGERS Jaye, one of the more quiet members of our class, joined us in the seventh grade. She has always shown an amazing ability at writing, so it seems only natural that she should plan to major in journalism at Boston ETni- versity, and make a career of journalism. Jaye w ' as chairman of the refreshment committee for the Junior Prom, head usher at the school play in 1949, and she has been on the Glee Club Executive Committee. Due to her excellent writing ability, she was on the Literary Staff of “Chanticleer” in 1947 and was Literary Editor in 1948. Jaye’s writing is sure to help her succeed in the future. WILLIAM FRANCIS SHERBURNE “Willy’s” subtle sense of humor has been threatening us with hysterics since the first grade. He plans to major in journalism at Harvard, and then to be an eccentric writer. Willy obligingly took on the job of being a hat check boy at our junior prom. He has been an active member of the Homeroom Committee. During our senior year, Willy entertained the Discussion Club with his humorous ideas on life. We will never forget the hilarious performance Willy gave as “Mr. Kimber”, in “George W’ashington Sle[)t Here.” page tiventy-eight HENRY SANDS SLAVTER “Sandy” has amazed us with his aptitude at math and sciences ever since his entrance into the class in the ninth grade. Eittingly enough, he plans to major in biology at M. I. T. Ve shall remember Sandy for being class treasurer in the junior year; for doing a fine job as Business Manager of this yearbook; for his member¬ ship on the Student Council in the junior year; for his work as Business Manager on the school magazine; and for his work as baseball manager in his junior year MAUREEN HELEN STEVENS Maureen joined our class in the first grade very quietly, as she has done almost everything all the way through school. She hopes to go to art school and eventually become a designer. W’e remember her for her four years in the Clee Club, and her performance in the chorus of the two oj)erettas, “Pirates of Penzance” and “Rio Rico,” and for her work on the outing committee, and es|K cially for her charm which made her part of the l rom Court in her junior year. pafie twenty-nine DANA STEWART Dana came into our class in the seventh grade. He hopes to go into professional sports or into radio work. W ' e remember him for his job as vice-president in the freshman year; for his work as Boys’ Sports Editor of the yearbook; for his years on the baseball team from 1945- 1949, the last three of which were spent on the varsity team; for his years on the basketball team in 1946- 1949; and especially for his performance in the Tech Tourney in 1948. DAVID STEWART “Dave” joined us in the seventh grade, and his radical ideas have been stirring up our class ever since. Due to his facility in mathematics, which he has e.xhibited all the years, he is planning to major in mathematics and industrial engineering at Harvard. We remember David for the outstanding job he did as secretary of the Discussion Club in the senior year, and for his active part in the club in both his junior and senior years; for his undying loyalty to F. D. R.; for his interest and aptitude in the field of social studies; for his membership on the Student Council in his Senior year; and finally, for his avid determination to be different. page thirty EDWARD MORROW TO LAND “Eddie’s” quiet personality descended on the ’49ers in the fourth grade. His shy, quiet manner has always made him well liked by the class. He hopes to major in English at Boston University, after which he may undertake a career in Journalism. He served on the Homeroom Committee during the senior year. Eddie is another one of our athletes. He will be remembered for his excellent work on the football field. He has been out for football since 1943, and has spent his last three years on the varsity team. He has also played basketball since 1943, and his last two years have been spent on the varsity. He had the honor of being co¬ captain of the basketball team in his senior year. We shall especially remember the splendid job he did at the Tech Tourney in 1947. ROBERT KARL VAN LEER “Dutch’s” friendly face came into our class in the Freshman year, and he has been entertaining the class with his wonderful sense of humor ever since. He is going to major in Agronomy at Cornell, and plans to go into that field after he finishes college. He has been Class President for three years, and on the Student Council for the last four years. He has also been a member of the Discussion Club for two years, and was on our Junior Prom Committee. In our Senior year, Karl was nomin ated by his schoolmates as Senator for Cood Government Day. He has shown splendid skill on the football field since 1947, and was co-captain in 1948. We are sure his friendly personality will make him welcome in college. page thirty-one ALBERT THOMAS WAUGH “Albie,” one of the friendliest members of our class, joined us in the fourth grade. He plans to go ito a bus- ness college and afterwards to become a milk dealer or go into hotel management. We shall remember Albie for his fine work as chairman of our Junior Prom; for being our Vice-President in the senior year and our Secretary in the freshman class; for his singing in the glee club for four years; and for his splendid work in athletics. Albie has been out for basketball since the eighth grade, has been on the varsity since he was a sophomore, and was co-captain in his senior year. He has gone out for baseball since his freshman year and has made the varsity every year. He was elected cap¬ tain in 1949. HONEY WHITNEY Honey’s blond curls have been attracting the boys in the class ever since the tenth grade. Honey is not a very talkative person, but she has her own ideas on matters just the same. She is not sure of her future plans, but since she is interested in music and has taken some singing lessons, she may possibly be a singer. Another career in which she is interested is that of an Air Hostess. DOROTHY DEAWN YOUNG Deawn hit our class with a big commotion in the fourth grade and she has continued through school in the same way. Appropriately enough, she was appointed Joke Editor of “Chanticleer”, the school magazine, for one year. She has contributed a fine alto voice to the Glee Club for four years, and sang in the chorus of “The Pirates of Penzance.” She has participated actively in the Discussion Club in her junior and senior years and served as chairman of the Class Day Committee. She went out for basketball in her sophomore year. Deawn’s future plans include secretarial school, where her ex¬ cellent high school record in shorthand and typing will ✓ be of use. VV’e’re sure that Deawn’s sense of humor will make her friends wherever she goes. page thirty-two f ' ■ j a M ■ vIHI Pp F ] = f Y ■liliil ' — ' .i ” ' 5l 1 1 II 1 jj rQ fl B8 ■ ifHiiSfifiWH ■111 i ,i® V Bg Sts _.—■ • 4 HK %TBg |n Rscf Cm8 0i8h Now that we, the forty-niners, are about to receive our diplomas and seek our fortunes in the big, wide world, we can look back on many of the incidents of our life in Weston with con¬ siderably more calmness than we could while still within the hallowed halls of our Alma Mater. The class of ’49 has been thru many experiences, — both funny and gruesome — but all interesting, as have our teachers, without doubt. We wonder sometimes if some of their experi¬ ences with us interested or amused them as they did us. The regularity with which teachers left Weston after enduring us for a year is impressive. We started our adventurous and distinctive trip thru school by greeting Mrs. Strahan on that bright September day in 1936, as the first kindergarten class in the Weston Public Schools. The most memorable event of that year was the play in which everyone in the class except John Lewis was a mouse. John, as you have probably guessed, was a cat. Somehow we managed to survive the next few years until suddenly we found outselves no longer small-fry, but sixth graders, the aristocrats of the grammar school. In spite of our new power and duties that went with it, such as being patrol boys and ringing the bell for recess, we were a little afraid of what junior high had in store for us. At least, judging from the dire warnings of Miss Staples, it sounded terrible. To the few who were unlucky enough to find themselves serving slips every afternoon, what she had said really seemed true, but to most of us it was a new and wonderful world. There were many diversions in junior high to keep us from becoming insufferable bookworms. For example, will any of us be able to forget that memorable trip to Boston with Miss Marble? Well, half of us were with her, anyway. Who knows what happened to the rest? All we know is that everyone reached home in one piece. The eighth grade was a year to be remembered for a tremendous deluge of newspapers. The most notable and, at-the time, the best advertised paper was “Bermy.” Remember that crazy dictionary? At last we were ready for the fatal step — entering high school! The warnings we were given made it seem like a most unbearable place to be, but we soon learned otherwise. In fact, as soon as we started the ninth grade the teachers began to impress us with the fact that high school is nothing compared to college. That remains to be seen. There are many incidents of the past four years that are best overlooked, but some are worth remembering after we have left the comparative safety of Weston High for the big wide world. We shall alwc a remember the time when a former member of the class walked into school one day with a new sport jacket, and cheerfully announced that the rather empty treasury was now $16 emptier. Fortunately we checked up on him and discovered that this was nothing but a very tall story. Then there was that April Fool’s Day in our junior year when Dave Stewart asked Di Potter to frost a cardboard box and give it to Mr. Cummings in class. The expression on Dave’s face when Mr. C. cut into a real cake was priceless. It was then that his high(?) opinion of women took a sickening plunge. In spite of everyone, we still think that the Tech Tourney game we skipped school to see was exceedingly worthwhile. Well it was! Due to suggestions stemming from this school,Tech Tourneys are now held only in the afternoon and evening. Along with memories of these and other interesting incidents, we can remember our class as being the first kindergarten in Weston, the first class to graduate from the remodeled building, and the first to have an early graduation. Now that we are finally ready to leave high school for good, and leave the teachers free once again, we sincerely hope that the trouble we have caused won’t have too lasting a mark, and that we will be remembered primarily for the worthwhile things we have accomplished. page thirty-four class Statistics Boy Smartest .

The foregoing instrument was signed by the said class of 1949 in our presence, and by them published and declared as and for their last will and testament and at their request and in their presence, and in the presence of each -other, we hereunto subscribe our names as attesting wit¬ nesses. page thirty-seven (P P Kf{i ieci As we drive up to Albert ’Wuugh’s exclusive nightclub “Little Bohemia ’ which is located in the heart of Boston’s Chinatown, we can already see some old familiar faces emerging from Cadillacs, Fords and Crosleys. We have taken advantage of an invitation that told of the great gathering of the class of 1949 for their tenth reunion. Parking our car, we see Doug Hammond, the famous croo ner and bandleader, climbing from his pink Cadillac convertible. (It has mole skin upholstery). With him are those famous Conover models, Alta Chamberlin and Maureen Stevens, who have been busy modelling the latest fall fashions for Dior. We can see William Sherburne, the new president of General Motors, talking to George Brouillette who just arrived home from the Bahamas yesterday on his yacht. Geore is a successful author, and his latest best-seller, “Too Young To Know,’’ just passed the three million mark. Pushing through the milling mob of dignitaries and celebrities, we enter “Little Bohemia,’ known the world over for its entertainment and high prices. The atmosphere in this club is so thick that we find outselves groping until we are rescued by Karl Van Leer, the renowned singing headwaiter. Karl had a promising job as a chemistry teacher, but he decided to become a head- waiter instead because headwaiters are paid. He still can be heard telling of the great knowl¬ edge that he gained from Mr. Sawyer. Ah, there is General Fred Perkins of the National Guard talking with General Daniel Hildebrand of the Air Force. Sitting in a dark corner of the club we can barely make out Bruce Campbell with an unidentifiable friend taking in this stupendous reunion. Bruce is a Social Studies teacher at Weston High and I hear that he is a success. Sitting partially hidden behind a potted palm tree we can see David Stewart and his brother Dana. David, who made his millions selling pictures of F. D. R. and drawing mustaches on Burma Shave signs, is accompanied by his mother, while Dana, the famous band leader, is with his wife, Jane Russell. Through the heavy smoke we can just barely make out Honey La Rue Whitney, the French Torch Singer of “Little Bohemia’’ who just arrived from Paris. Although Mr. Waugh will say only that she is a native of France and is married to a paratrooper, she looks vaguely familiar. Sitting to the right of Honey we can make out the incomparable “Molten Fingers’’ Dougherty pounding away at his famous back room piano. Next to him is Jonh Lewis who is accompanying Andy on a cello. We can make out many famous faces as we scan our quaint surroundings. At the next table are Dorothy Ritter, Deawn Young and Diana Potter, who recently became partners and opened Boston’s largest beauty shop. With them are Arthur Barker, retired Naval Admiral, and Fritz Ritter, who made a mint of money selling Toni wave sets. (He also sells used cars on the side.) Scratching mathematical formulas on a tablecloth are Atomic Scientist Sandy Slayter and prominent inventor Charlie Howell who recently invented a new mousetrap. At the table on our left are Josephine Pollock and Marion Gage bus ily engaged in a con¬ versation with Dick Murray, famous song writer. Dick ' s latest masterpiece, “The Charles River Suite’’, was lauded by “Variety’’ as “the greatest thing since Mozart.’’ Dick has helped to finance Marion’s and Josephine’s new nursery school with the money he got from royalties. Suddenly our view is obscured by Maxine Edmunds, the cigarette girl who purrs, “Have a Camel, Big Boy All at once the house lights dim and a bright green spotlight picks out John Dowd and his wife. John is a famous Boston butcher. Crossing the room we see Shirley Cunningham, secretary to the President of the United States, and Edward Toland, the famous “Whodunit’’ author whose latest work is “The Blue Door.’’ Near the back door we see Governor David “Kingfish’’ Martin, who rode in on a Democratic landslide. David writes novels on the side, “Jackie was a Girl’’ being his latest piece of work. Coming into the Ballroom we can see Louise Anthony, Joanne Alexander and Barbara Cook. All of these girls are career girls, quite successful in their fields. Directly behind them are Roland Dickson and Edith Blaney, who are partners in Boston’s best architectural firm. Gosh, it’s ten-thirty and time that we were home and in bed! As we are leaving we see Rosemarie Morse and Jaye Rogers who just opened the large department store “Morse-Rogers.’’ Continuing toward the door we see Joe MacDonald, Private Detective, keeping an eye on a questionable character. Ah, what a wonderful time this has been! Getting our hats, we drop our customary tip, a dime, in the saucer, only to hear a groan from the check girl, Barbara La Coy. As we leave, we wonder what changes the next ten years will make in the class of 1949. pa e thirty-eight thirty-nine JUNIOR CLASS JUNIOR CLASS Lefl lo Right : Back row: Betsy Nichols, Jane Cahill, William Newell.

William Sherburne made his first appearance on the stage as Mr. Kimber, an old back- woods farmer. Annabelle Fuller, played by Edith Blaney, and Newton Fuller, played by Bruce Campbell, were the two leading roles, and were excellently portrayed. Under the skillful supervision of Mr. Zorn, assisted by two student directors, Betsy Nichols and Alice Rinehart, the play was a great success. page forty-six The Weston Golf Club, decorated with spring flowers and a maypole, was the scene of our Prom, one of the highlights of our Junior year. Albie Waugh was the general chairman and Diana Potter headed the talented decoration committee, all the members of which provided ideas for the queen’s throne, a white covered chair, set on a platform, against a background of blue crepe paper with gold leaves artistically arranged. Alta Chamberlin, wearing a spring cotton evening gown, was chosen Queen of the Prom by the orchestra and was crowned by Karl vanLeer, president of the class. The crown was gold with split white carnations. Alta’s court members were Shirley Cunningham, Maureen Stevens, Dorothy Ritter, Joan Burke, Louise Anthony, and Diana Potter. Each court member was presented with a coronet of sweet peas. Our refreshment committee was headed by Jaye Rogers, tickets were under the supervision of Charles Howell, and Doug Hammond was in charge of the music committee. The music was provided by Harry Marshard’s orchestra and our Junior Promenade was a big success and enjoyed by all who attended. page forty-seven c 30 o si 5 ’3 Q K E 2 C U 0) c OJ rtj U .2 d 3 X uj O 3 ' .S c S -d •S ►2,0 o 0 J2 a a o X5 •o d 3 (-• oa- 03 .

This year the Discussion Club met Friday afternoons in the foods laboratory with Mr. Cummings. Cake, cookies, ginger ale, and coffee were provided by those who attended each week. Members took turns acting as chairman of the weekly meeting, alternating with Mr. Cum¬ mings. An interesting series of discussions on religion were held, a different form of religion being discussed each time. The members of the club proved that such subjects can be discussed so that we can all learn new things in an intelligent and interesting manner. page forty-nine THE STUDENT COUNCIL STUDENT COUNCIL Left to Right: Back row: Winslow Cobb, David Stewart, David Martin, Mr. Teittinen, Miss Peters, Mr. Cummings, Donald Wyman, Peter Green. Richard Mailey. First row: Helen Johnson, Karl vanLeer, Bruce Campbell, John Malone, Emily Spencer, Michael Malamud, and Robert Mosher. Under the Student Council’s able officers, President, John Melone, Vice President, Bruce Campbell, and Secretary-Treasurer, Emily Spencer, plus the faculty advisors. Miss Peters, Mr. Cummings, and Mr. Teittinen, the Council accomplished many things benefitting the student body. One major accomplishment was that of the student supervision of certain study halls. The student council members started acting as proctors at first, then members of the study halls helped. Cooperation among the students was evident. As time went on, more study periods were put under the supervision of the students. Pete Green, Win Cobb, Doug Hammond, Bruce Campbell, Louise Anthony, and David Martin were some who acted as student proctors. We hope this will continue successfully with other classes. The Council arranged for those who wanted to talk from 8:10 to 8:30 before school to do so in the corridor leaving the home rooms quiet for those who wish to study. This worked out well, and almost all were satisfied. At Win Cobb’s suggestion a committee wrote out a statement concerning the systems of dues which have been found effective by previous classes. This gives information to each class as it comes along so that the members may avoid excessive dues im their senior year and yet enjoy the usual senior activities. The Council did a marvelous job and worked out many items to benefit the student body. W’e owe the whole Council a vote of thanks. page fifty CHANTICLEER STAFF Left to Right: Back row: Lois Hawkins, Joan Carter, Alta Chamberlin, Everett Armstrong, Winslow Cobb, Robert Loud, James Kubik, Meredith Fowler, Audrey Reader, Margot Frye, and Patricia Hallquist.

First row: Edward Toland, Robert Toland, Mylon Lyons, Peter Green, Karl yanLeer, Joseph Tebo, Gerald Cobb, and Arthur Barker. The football team has had one of the best records of many past years. Weston started the season by defeating Millis 20—0. The following week we squeezed an¬ other win against Ashland 2-0. The next week we beat the unsuspecting St. Sebastian’s team 14-0. Weston left Hopkington in wonder when we beat them 26-0. Weston received a heart breaker when they tied Westwood 7-7. The next week, against Chelmsford, the extra points pulled us through 14-13. During the first period against Medfield one touchdown took us through to win. In the traditional game, we ran the Wayland team ragged with a win of 27-0. Art Barker and Bob Toland scored in the second period and Bob Toland and Karl VanLeer in the third period. Dave Colpitts kicked three out of four placements. Best of luck next year to co-captains Joe Tebo and Win Cobb. page fifty-four page fifty-five BOY’S BASKETBALL BOYS’ BASKETBALL Left to Right: Back row: Coach Robert Carini, Charles Martin, Aubrey Jones, Whitney Nolte, Richard Foote, Michael Mklamud, and Coach John Proctor.

First row: Dana Stewart, John Melone, Robert Toland, Edward Toland, Albert Waugh, Mylon Lyons, David Colpitts, and Donald Wyman. This year’s basketball team was a better team than the record shows. Captained by Albie Waugh and Eddie Toland, they got off to a bad start due to late practice because of the classes held in the f}ym. The team played its first good game with Dover, defeating them 36 to 30. Dover, however, went on to win Dual County-League championship, losing only this one game. When the season ended, the Weston team had compiled a 500 percentage. This was good enough to have the school accepted in the Townsend Tournament. The team came into its own and played great ball, downing Acton in the quarter final. The team lost a close battle to Milford (the final winners), as our spark and leading scorer, Albie Waugh, was injured and missed a considerable part of the game. We hope that next year’s team gets off to a fast start and finishes as the Dual League champions. page Jifty-six cheeri.p:ai)ers Left to Right: Back row: Louise Anthony, and Carol Chamberlin.

Girls’ Basketball was greatly handicapped this year by the temporary classrooms located in the gym, and by the fact that only half of our first team remained from last year. Therefore, basketball did not get well underway until the middle of December, and we are very proud of the wins made over Wellesley and Waltham. The first team includes: forwards, Jane Turner, Pat Hallquist, Maxine Edmunds, and Dorothy Underhill. Guards are Carol Chamberlin, Louise Anthony, Janet Haynes, Alice Rine¬ hart, and Shirley Cunningham, Captain. The second team, also with two wins to their credit, includes: forwards, Alta Chamberlin, Captain, Mimi Hutchinson, Leslie Field. Guards: Edith Blaney, Carolyn Curtis and Dorothy Ritter. Since there will be so many experienced players on the next year’s team, and plenty of op¬ portunity to practice in a new gym, we predict a very successful season. page fifty-eight GIRL’S HOCKEY GIRLS ' HOCKEY TEAM Left to Right: Back row: Mrs. Gurland, Anne Marshall.

This year our team was untied, unbeaten and un¬ scored upon. In the first game with Way land only the first team played, with a score of 6-0. The second game with Wayland ended with the score of 2-0. The second team was credited with the first half of the game. The scores of our games with Waltham were 5-0 and 3-0. The second team scores were 0-0 and 2-0. Cambridge School was our next goal with a score of 3-0 for the first team and 3-1 for the second. Our last game of the season was played with Wellesley. Both teams came through with flying colors, 3-0 and 2-0. The high scorers for the season were: Betsy Nichols, 8 and Jane Turner, 7. We are hoping our team next year will be as successful as was the team of ’48. pa e fifty-nine BASEBALL BASEBALL TEAM Left to Right: Back row: Julius Mueller, Charles Howland.

Inasmuch as our classes were held at Waltham High School, we were in school from two to six p.m. As a result, our games were changed to Saturday afternoon. However, the team started off well with an 11-3 victory over the alumni. In our first regular game, we lost to a well-balanced Hopkinton team, 9-2. In the next game it was Dave Colpitts all the way as he racked up a neat 1-0 shuto ut against Southboro, while Albie Waugh slid home for the only run. Sad to relate, we lost the next three games, two to Sudbury, and one to Wayland. This year we have six remaining lettermen and we are anticipating a good season. page sixty COMPLIMENTS OF ARMA D STUDIO Photographers of Distinction Official Photographers for The Class of 1949 184 BOYLSTON STREET BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS page sixty-one OCIENTAL PU05 BROADLOOMS — DOMESTIC RUGS BROOKS, BILL CO., Inc.
