Former Members of the Class of '61 r History of the Class of I96I Time moves on, and all too soon our last year in school has passed. This June the high school por- tals will close on us, and we must be ready for the responsibilities of the future. In our four years of high school we have developed and matured. We have learned co-operation and leadership through participation in school activities. Let us turn back the clock and recognize our achievements during these important four years. Since our freshman year we have been interested in athletics. Our class contributed Dan Dunlevy, Ioel Howes, Charles Kellogg, Nicholas Warren, and Gary Moore to the Cross Country Team. Dan Dun- levy, who is undefeated, showed outstanding ability. He is also co-captain of both the basketball and the baseball teams. Linda Beals and Kathleen Mollison along with Cynthia Kellogg, Laura Barrus, and Susan Clark have supported the girls' basketball team since their sophomore year. All these girls have given their best for a successful team. Most of our debators have been members of the team since their freshman year. Allen Moran, Peter Batura, Dan Dunlevy, Nicholas Warren, and Helen Symons have given unselfishly of their time and effort. Our debating team has ranked very high this year. The boys' voices in the Glee Club came almost entirely from our class. Gary Moore, Joel Howes, Charles Kellogg, and John Curtis are this year's valuable and talented songsters. Nick Warren, who has been in Glee Club for four years, has developed his musical ability in a trio of boys' voices. The editing of the TATTLER has been supervised by Helen Symons, editor, and Ronald Kievitt, assistant editor. They both have worked diligently, and they deserve the praise of everyone. Our class is very proud of our students with high scholastic ability. Ten members of our class belong to the Pro Merito Society. Allen Moran, Kenneth Sherk, and Nicholas Warren received honorable men- tion as a result of their high ranking scores in the National Merit Scholarship Test. Last year Kenneth Sherk, Gary Moore, and Helen Symons placed first, second, and third, respectively, in our Science Fair. During our high school years we have enjoyed sponsoring school dances, especially the Junior Prom last year and the Freshman Reception and the Christmas Dance this year. We have supported all school activities including our Student Council, which we hope will strengthen each year, , Now the time has come for us to leave our beloved school. We are filled with gratitude for the education and the cultural background that we have acquired, and we are looking forward to the learn- ing and wisdom which the future will bring.

Class Prophecy It was the summer of 1976. The fresh country air was streaming through my hair as I gave my new, streamlined engine full throttle and roared down the straightaway. Yes, Look Park certainly has one of the finest train runs this side of the Mississippi. Ever since I took my job here ten years ago as chief engineer, I have been waiting for the opportunity to give the streamliner a good workout. Suddenly, a deer bounded out of the woods right into my path. I tried to stop--what a mess! Then a figure leaped out of the bushes screaming and tearing his hair. I could tell by the green uniform and shiny badge that he was none other than the Look Park game keeper. After he had stopped his jumping up and down, I recognized my old buddy, Chick Kellogg, who, I assumed, had just been transferred by popular de- mand from a cage-cleaning job in New York. After we had loaded the venison steaks into the caboose, I invited him to take a spin with me in my new engine, and to talk over old times at W.H.S. Naturally. we discussed our favorite reading material, and thus the subject turned to Allen Moran. Have you read Allen's latest stories in PLAYBOY? asked Chick. I guess the intellectual stimu- lation at old W.H.S. finally got him into the right fie1d. Yes, I replied, and have you seen the cartoons that Gary Moore does to illustrate them? I hear the censors are hot on his hee1s. Speaking of journalism, said Chick, Gert Heath gets some good dirt in her column for the BOSTON RECORD. As a matter of fact she has written a few articles concerning some of our old class- mates. lt seems that Bernie Beattie, third baseman for the Boston Red Sox, has been having troubles with players stealing third. However, Fred 'Bloodhound' Hayden, the famed private detective has been put on the job, and a solution is expected soon. Not only that, but Gert put in a big plug for Helen Symons, who runs the only dancing school teaching cha-cha exclusively. Then I interrupted, did you read the article on Mary Richardson? It seems that she and Doug Kel- logg, now an admiral after a long career in the Navy, have been happily married for three years, an all time record for Mary. True, Mary's sea-sickness did present a stumbling block for a while, but a consultation with the world-famous marriage counsellor, John Curtis, and a big bottle of dramamine, solved the problem quite nicely. Chick, who was fairly bursting with information, told me about Tom Hatter. He has become a Bondo expert for General Motors. They say that he is the first person to complete a car of more than 50471 Bondo, and it is rumored that in knowledgeable circles he is called 'Mr. Bondo'Z By the way, his sidekick, Dave Aloisi, has become a successful Roto-Rooter Sewer Service man. Ralph Healy, who worked with Dave, and who made him the man he is today, has gone back to fiddling with engines, and is now chief golf-cart mechanic at the White I-louse. That's funny, I said. I always figured Dave for a farmer. Well, Joel Howes and his .cousin Nick have made good in' the dairy business and own a tremendous herd of aphids. They also run -a small poultry farm which is supervised by Kathy Mollison, who, as you know, had a great deal of experience in this field. Not only that, but Bucky Sherk has astounded the world by inventing that great labor- saving device for dairy farmers, the reclining milking stool. Just then, as we emerged from the dark recesses of the tunnel, the figure of a young boy dropped into the caboose. However, he hadn't reckoned with the superior powers of Chick Kellogg and a pile of venison steaks. Quickly, Chick extricated him and brought him up front. And lo and behold, it was no eight-year-old ride chiseler, but a thirty-three-year-old rid chiseler, the owner of a great worm 21
