Weston Hi h School Band The success story of the Weston High School Band this year has been fabulous ,pleasing to students , fac- ulty,and everyone in the town. Handicapped by the lack of experienced players ,Mr. Phillips went into the Jun- ior High School and even to the Grammar School to make up the great hole left by graduating students. Constant practice has made a pleasant sounding group out of the band. The band, with the great efforts of the P. T. A. and the town's people, has fashionable new uniforms which add even more smartness to the or- ganization at assemblies , football games , and the many other appearances of the band each year. The uni- forms are maroon with braids of grey, patriotically following the school colors. Also adding to the ba.nd's performance at the football games were the twirlers doing their skillful routine. They were Judy Wetzel, Edith Stewart, Posy Hubbard, Betty Stewart, Nancy Mailman, Eileen Derbyshire, and Janet Tomlinson. The success story ofthis year's band has just be- gun, with only two members graduating in .Tune and several more coming up to fill the vacancy. In years to come it will be one of the finest musical group! in Massachusetts. 19 First Row: R. Langenback, C. Strauch, K. Janeway. J. Neilson, T. White, S. Hamill, H. Hartwell, R. Elliston, E.

Before the season even started, Co-captain and fullback Fred Lyons was lost to the team with a broken arm, but nevertheless we easily won our first two games. The loss of four more key men played an important part in the loss of the next two games, but we then recovered and took the fifth and sixth contests. In the seventh game, against Chelmsford, we were determined to avenge last year's 16 - 7defeat,but we failed to take advantage of several breaks and the result was a tie. However Lynn Vocational pro- vided little opposition the following week, and we prepared for the final game of the year. On November 21 Weston met traditional rival Wayland at Bran- deis Field, Waltham. In this game ten seniors played their final football game for Weston. Bob Wilson starred, averaging 16 112 yards per carry, as we emerged the winner, 21 - 7. This year, Co-captain and quarterback Dan Melone was high scorer in the district with 55 points. End Artie Mason was third with 37. We hope that next year's team, co-captained by Dick White, Art Mason and Andy Taylor, will be aided by better luck. ln front: Donna Cugini, Winnie Barbetti, Mary Kelly.
