GOLF The Weymouth High School Golf Team, whose Suburban League oppo- nents represent all of eastern Massachu- setts, uses the South Shore Country Club for all its home games. Although spurred on by such able men as Mr. Fisher as coach, and Mr. Jannino as assistant coach, the young team did not enjoy many victories. Since the team was comprised of one junior, most valu- able player Joe Callahan, and seven sophomores, the chances for a very successful season next vear are excellent. The Golf Team: Top row (1-r) Mr. Fisher, F. Allen, J. Callahan, E. Xalband, R. Lowe, R. Balsom. Front row ( 1-r) B. McGroarty, S. Hartry, T. Gentile, and R. Karacues.

The Graduation Dance was held in the school cafeteria, transformed into a ballroom by the magic of Miss Kovac and Mr. Daly. Music was pro- vided by Kahuna and the Mooners, a group which included five of their class- mates.
