We, as students of Marshfield High School, hold the keys to these doors, but each one of us has our own separate opening to which we alone have access. Beyond our door is a world unknown. It is up to each one of us to turn our key and unlock our door to the future. The title onthedoormay give us a clue to what lies behind it, but once we cross the threshold, there is no turning ba ck. Only we, as individuals, can deal with what lies beyond. It is our duty and privilege to make the most of each one of these opport- unities. Our entire lives may depend upon the doors we open. So give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you. DEDICATION Stewart Thomas F. Grady, Jr. S. Sargent Education is the leading human minds and souls to what is right and best, and to making what is best out of them. In appreciation of your work with and for the seniors, we, the class of 1958, dedicate THE TIDE to you, Mr. Grady, and to you, Mr. Sargent. Mr. Grady, your advice, your words of wisdom, your understanding of the individual, and your sense of humor have created a bond between us and strengthened our friendship. Mr. Sargent, your encouragement and humor both inside and outside the classroom, establishing the Science Fair, and generously donating good suggestions have proved that encouragement is creativeness. To you both we give our sincere thanks. 4 o o o Fdcultu I will point yc OLil tf?i 2 rjgnt aoor to a virtuous and noLIc educ6tilon° Superintendent EDWIN ALBERT MARTINSON B.

Let ' s look back on some of oui most memorable activities as underclassmen. As eager little freshmen, we were anxious to start our high school career; we scrambled into our homerooms with high spirits. Our first problem was to find a classroom large enough to hold all 102 of us for class meetings. We finally selected the music room. Sadly enough, our meetings were no prize example of parliamentary procedure. John Simson led the class as president, and Jane Stephens helped as vice-president. It was fortunate that we had mathematician, Kerry Theran to handle the treasury. Eunice Costello frantically took the minutes for the secretary ' s report. Janet Hagar became our historian, and Ross Ketchum represented us in the Student Council. As the year progressed, we found that selling cokes at football games was certainly a profitable enterprise. On October 9, we held a Barn Dance which was a success, socially and financially. Many of our classmates had athletic abilities and were on the football, hockey, basketball, baseball, and softball squads. Many of us were baffled by conjugations and declensions in Latin, and others discovered that there is more to cooking than boiling water. In spite of our struggles with these new subjects and the Upperclassmen, our freshman year was a great success, and Mr. Scott sat back once again to await the next tribe. The following September, we were privileged to pester three homeroom teachers: Mrs. Etelman, Mr. Reed, and our class advisor. Miss Ellard. Our class meetings were held in room divisions. Ross Ketchum was president while Kit McNitt was vice-president. Kerry Theran again protected the treasury; Eunice Costello was still taking notes, and Janet Hagar recorded the history. This year we had three Student Council representatives --Linda Morrow, Jane Stephens, and Diana Curren. Many of us began French, and, with a little concentration, we finally could say, Bonjour Mademoiselle and Repetez s ' il vous plait. Too, some of us were trying to conquer Caesar, subjunctives, and congruent triangles. Our leap year dance on March 23 gave the girls their long-awaited chance to become known to secretly admired heroes. This and June 21 brought about the social and academic end of the first half our high school career. The following September we expected to return to school as sophisticated upperclassmen, but, to our disappoint- ment, we found ourselves just juvenile juniors. With Mrs. Etelman as our class advisor, we elected Doug Wicher, president, and Jack Jones, vice-president. Eunice and Kerry kept their posts, and Diana Curren became historian. Pete Henderson and Jean Van Amringe represented us in the Student Council. In our social life, our class play was paramount. We chose a three-act comedy, Men Are Like Streetcars, with Ken Shepherd and Lyn Parker taking the leading roles. Mrs. Etelman and her everlasting command, louder f helped to make it surpass all expectations. Our next money-making project was a record hop, the Junior Jubilee. Following that was the Junior Prom, which, while we all had a good time, just about covered the expenses for our next project which proved to be a tall order. After a fruitless search for a place in which to hold the Senior Reception, our hopes were deflated, and it was held in the gymnasium. However, it turned into a gala phenomenon. The numerous sprays of flowers disguised the gym so that it was easy for those who attended to imagine that they were in a palace ballroom. The formal and festive Commencement Ball proved to be a paramount culmination of the year. At last came September, 1957, our senior year. We came back expecting to receive royal treatment as Seniors, but, much to our disappointment, we were considered just one of the few hundred students at MHS. Parliamentary procedure was pounded into our heads as we held our first class meeting with Mr. Blackington as our advisor. Bob Mitchell presided with Ken Shepherd as his right hand man. We again put our confidence in Kerry and Eunice who were our treasurer and secretary. Diana Curren compiled the historical events of our four years. We added a new office to our list and elected Doug Wicher as Chaplain. Pete Henderson and Jean VanAmringe represented us in the Student Council with Pete as president. Our social life included a record hop, a play, the Senior Prom, and a Talent Show. Our play, To Blush Unseen, revolved around some unusual disappearances on a college campus. 1957 ended with our Senior Prom, which did not add much to our treasury, but certainly was a social success. As in previous years, sports and music played a major part in our lives. Senior players on the various teams were honored in the election for captains, and others made up a large portion of the squads. Those of us showing out- standing ability in chorus and band were among the representatives to New England, All State, and SEMSBA. Many diligent Seniors contributed to the success of the yearbook, and, believe it or not, all deadlines were met--almost! Many of us who worked especially hard were initiated into the National Honor Society. Yes, we are graduating, full of hopes and visions. Sometimes we may have been anxious for this time to come, but, now that it is actually here, we are a little afraid. We realize that we are the oldest and most experienced in the matters of a high school student, but, after graduation, we will be the youngest and most inexperienced in the new life ahead of us. We wish to express our deepest appreciation to you, our instructors, for your careful guidance and capable leader- ship from our entrance into the seventh grade through the twelfth grade, for it is you have helped to make us ready to meet any challenge the future may bring. CLASS PROPHECY The year was 1988, and our class had met once more; It was our 30 year reunion, the one we ' d all been waiting for. We didn ' t know what lay ahead of us on that dark and dreary night; Our fate had been decided; disaster was our plight. All became quite quiet when the three got up to speak; They couldn ' t wait to tell us about their latest feat. Ken and Bob claimed they ' d been working, but their plan had gone beserk; Tom said, My calculations aren ' t quite finished, but I ' m sure that it will work. What is it? shouted Pete LeMay, while giving it a poke; Because dear Pete was nosey, we all went up in smoke! Heaven was our destination with Doug to lead us there; Being our class Chaplain, we thought it only fair. Now here ' s Gus Gookin giving St Peter ' s sleeve a pull. He ' s asking him, Where ' s the First National?” The heavenly highways are no longer safe Since Carp and his sports car have hit this place. The Air Force and Marines are represented here As Bachman and Blass on Sputnik appear, Lani arrived; the skies are ablaze. His black book is filled, and the angels are dazed. Rolling through the pearly gate Are those three famous skaters Doyle, Opelski, and Lake, As they passed through the gate, Secretaries Bryant and Stewart said, You ' re late. There ' s Bobby Holmes, painting a cloud. Heaven’s to Bethy, isn’t it loud ! Here comes tall, handsome Irv; His aim is to teach and to serve. Bill Moses and Rich Davis, back from Mars, Are now up here shooting stars. Diana and Janet, noted medical techs. Now up in heaven are swabbing the decks. A physical therapist was Sue Drake; Her patients were Leary, and, oh, how they ache. Heaven ' s new network is simply terrif. Manned by disc jockey John Holland — -announcer Pete Smith. Ben and Jim set all heaven agleam While playing football on the Cherubim team. In making her Servaes, Patricia has found Ann Harter is still our favorite class clown. Despite his resolutions to give up girls. General Theran ' s now chasing heavenly pearls. There’s Linda Jean Morrow cleaning up slums, Still insisting we ' ll beat those Scituate bums. There ' s Donavan and Ellsworth having a race; Skip ' s Cloud 8 is setting the pace. We feel pretty safe with four nurses strong, Moulton, Hazard, Little, and Long. Fred Gonsalves, castle builder by trade, Dave Taggart, the realtor, sees he gets paid. The new French novel by Mademoiselle Pat Is rated terrific by critic Harry Pratt. 32 Dobson and Ford, they used to be quiet, But now they ' re causing a heavenly riot. School marm Wendy, friendly and sweet. Spends her time after school teaching Saint Pete. Heavenly purchaser, Nancy Brown, She ' s in charge of each angel ' s gown. Our beauty. Miss Venti, once a Hollywood star. All Heaven proclaims her the prettiest by far. Married at a tender age was our Judy Lynch; She learned to budget in problems class, but it ' s still no cinch. All of us up here are having a fit. Guess who got married?! Bachelorette Kit. Dana ' s now ended his skin diving career ' Cause he can ' t seem to find any water up here. Carol Jean Williams is all the rage With her IBM, adding up figures page by page. Jane Stephens has become quite a Southern belle. She ' s turning all heaven into — Purgatory! On Saint Timothy ' s Connor, there ' s a florist shop. Judy Hynes works there; the flowers are tops. Louis Lopes is still quite the flirt In his flashing clothes and new convert. Mary Keene, with escorts galore. Now glides across the heavenly floor. Pat Curran, now modeling a celestial gown. Designed by Jane Cohee of world renown. Famed linguist McGuire was last heard to say, Scheid-den, wie so raschent flohn die Ta-ge. In answer to this rhetorical remark, Linda Parker piped up, life Kommen ist barch. Professorship was Helen ' s destiny; In science and math, she has her degree. Jack and his sax now have first chair. Hey Jones, how ' s it feel to be way up there? A familiar laugh comes from out of a cloud; It ' s only Eunice with her artistic crowd. Happy is Priscilla Cobb In her Civil Service job. Jean had no trouble getting here; In her jet she did appear. Indispensible in the court of law. Recorder Cervelli never made a flaw. Coach Raymond ' s boys have often collapsed; Bill hasn ' t forgotten his training in laps. Joe is really traveling in style. Arriving in the new Cunning -.mobile. Here ' s Peter Henderson of political fame; He ' s now managing St. Peter ' s campaign. Our class is all accounted for —but wait --there ' s something amiss. Ah, here comes Mr. Blackington to share our heavenly bliss. This is only a prophecy of what is yet to be. The future is ahead, but not for us to see. 33 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the members of the Class of 1958 of Marshfield High School, town of Marshfield, Plymouth County, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind (or reasonable facsimile) do hereby designate this document to be our last Will and Testament.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY On the second day of our year as Seniors, we were confronted with the problem of choosing and casting a play. The committee immediately chose To Blush Un- seen,” a farce in three acts. As soon as our cast was chosen, rehearsals got under way, under the able direction of our class advisor, Mr. Blackington. The first few rehearsals were spent in con- quering gales of laughter. As the date for putting on the play drew near, the school was struck by a mild epidemic of the flu. Most of our cast was absent from school, so play rehearsals were called off, and the play was postponed until November 1. This lime, with all our members back, the play went off on schedule, and with tremendous success. To Blush Unseen takes place in Sweetberry College. The students of the college are all just average college students, with the exception of Smedley Brandon. Some- how, Smedley always seems to be at the bottom of all campus trouble. It seems that Smedley has mixed up certain chemicals and has made a mixture which makes things disappear. Smedley accidently spills this mixture on Sweetsie, President Eckman ' s dog. and the dog becomes invisible. President Eckman is convinced that Smedley is un- balanced when Smedley tells him of the dog ' s plight, and calls the State Hospital, demanding a psychoanalyst. Meanwhile, Smedley ' s palshave asked his former girl- friend, Lee Wilson, to help solve the formula. Lee spills the mixture, and becomes invisible. Wanda Fisher, Smedley ' s present girlfriend becomes disgusted when Smedley tries to explain the disappearance of Lee and the dog. She takes the bottle and empties it down the drain. She, too, becomes invisible. When Hanover Banks, Smedley ' s friend, hears of the Prexy ' s calling the State Hospital, he decides to keep Smedley out of trouble by dressing Gutzy Butterworth as the psychologist. This move only serves to complicate matters, for the real Dr. Boltsy soon arrives on the scene. Cora Mulligan, the campus blabbermouth, also adds to the confusion by constantly threatening to tell the Prexy what Smedley is up to. Dean Haggenbeck, the Dean of Women for Sweetberry College, claims to have seen the bottle floating across campus about four feet above the ground. She distrusts every student on the campus. When the invisible Wanda talks while the Dean is in the room, the Dean is con- vinced that the boy is up to no good. Dottie Finiston, the only average girl on campus, can not figure out the cause for the mix-up, but decides she had better be analyzed too when Lee, still invisible causes a door to open by itself. Gloriana Day and Marabella Simpson, two fresh col- lege debs, add zip and unity to the play. Never punctual, they continually harrass Dottie for either money to mail after hours. The FBI man, at Sweetberry College, to make a thorough investigation of the case, comes away as con- fused as the rest. Just when everything seems to be solved for Smedley, a new girl comes to Sweetberry College. She starts Smedley ' s problems with Wanda all over again. The Cast of To Blush Unseen would like to con- gratulate and thank every person connected with the play. Everyone did a fine job at making our Senior Class Play a great success !

TIDE STAFF The yearbook staff consists of the following depart- ments: Literary, Business, Photography, Compiling, Art, and Advisory. The Literary Staff takes care of the majority of • write-ups. Writing, rewriting, and more rewriting-- would our editors never be satisfied? No doubt, we learned more about grammar and punctuation doing this than in any English class ! Is it really true that pictures never lie? We hope not, but the photography staff certainly had many a laugh looking over and selecting the pictures to be used in the yearbook- -especially those candids! The advisory staff had charge of all class write-ups while the Art Staff was responsible for all the funny little drawings you see on the various pages throughout the yearbook. The organizing and planning was in the hands of the Compiling Staff. They must have been an excep- tionally well-balanced group for they waded through all those little square blocks and ended up completely sane. No doubt, however they will be counting 1-2- 3-4--A-B-C-Din their sleep for a long time to come! The Business and Advertising Staffs ravaged the town to secure patrons and to solicit ads from the businesses to help finance the yearbook. We were successful in the amount collected but it certainly took some con- stant pressure from those in charge. No money--no yearbook! Next they were confronted with the tedious task of collecting the money from the students who wished to buy a yearbook. This was a next to impos- sible task- - Gee, I’m sorry, but I forgot my money to- day. Would it be too late to bring it tomorrow? --but we were finally successful in collecting quite a sum. This year 100 yearbooks were ordered with extra padding on the covers at the additional price of $.25. The seniors had priority and then the remaining under- classmen. Our work would never have been accomplished with- out the alruistic help from Miss Ellard and Mr. Reed. Thanks to them and all those who helped on the year- book staff, we were able to meet all our deadlines with- in a reasonable space of time after they were actually due. 38 The Editors: Linda Parker, Literary Editor; Kit McNitt,Editor-in-Chief ; Robert Mitchell, Business Manager; Linda Morrow, Photography Editor; Susan Drake, Senior Editor; Joseph Cunning, Sports Editor; Virginia Venti, Compiling Editor; Eileen McGuire, Advisory Editor; Eunice Cos- tello, Art Editor. 40 71 5 cdi-icaKOT forms the common mind: Juaf aa the iuiq b bent iktz Inclined .

At the beginning of our Junior year, with Mrs. Etelman as our class advisor, we elected six of the most capable students to head our class. Larry Nangle assumed the role of president; vice-president, Kevin Leary, was always ready and willing to step into the president ' s spot when needed. As secretary, Jane Allen seemed to be forever rushing to get down on paper the numerous things dis- cussed in our tumultuous class meetings. John Hubbard horded all the dues, and Frances Hale kept the history of our class. Connie Ela and Kenneth Johnson represented us in the Student Council. We have reasons for feeling very accomplished for this year we presented a play, Maybe Love, the story of how Judy Corbett (Claire Michael) overcame the qualms of her strict mother (Janice Moran), fell in love with her tutor (Lloyd Salvetti), and went to the biggest dance of the year with the best looking boy in town (Jeff Lang). We also introduced the first overwhelmingly successful record hop on which we made oodles to fill our grief- stricken treasury, and we enjoyed, too, a relatively un- successful food sale ... by eating what was left over. The individual efforts of our class are also to be recognized and congratulated. We have those who are constantly on the first honor roll namely Mary Mc- Guire and June Stevens with a goodly amount of those 42 ROW I: Kathryn Waddicor, Judy Barbeau, Martha Hayes, Barbara D ' Amato, Marcia Paulding, Sandra Shurtleff, Lee Baldwin, Ann Lennon, Claire Michael, Elayne LaFratta, Aiuie Linskey.

That old school spirit just wouldn ' t be if there weren ' t any Beth, Ann, Marcia, Lee, and Elayne. Mr. Cowgill just couldn ' t get along without the toots and squeaks of band members Josiah Strandberg, Claire Michael, Paul Smith, Kevin Leary, and Jean Flagg.

CLASS OF 1 960 Under the able guidance of Miss Ellard, our advisor; class president, Andy Burkhardt; vice-president, Brad Stephens; secretary, Virginia Caswell; treasurer, Pat Fmgoli; historian, Diane DeMulder; and Student Coun- cil representatives, Linda Mann, Pa t Brandt, Janice Emery, and Brad Stephens, the class of ' 60 held its first successful class meeting on January 10, 1958. Up to this time, we had not accomplished anything of histor- ical value, but we were looking forward to better things. The first and greatest obstacle discussed at the meeting was — money. At the start of our sophomore year, we were fairly content with the amount in our treasury. However, after our social event of the year, The Win- ter Whirl, endedina jolting — failure, we set to work and organized The Ways and Means Committee, whose duty it was to develop any projects to aid our treasury. We set about to sell candy at basketball games, thus relieving our deflated treasury. Even though a few of our classmates had left us the previousjune, others replaced them the following Sep- tember. Thus, we kept our extremely large enrollment. Being one of the largest classes in the school, we had several members on the honor roll as well as the field hockey, football, cheerleading, basketball, and base- ball squads. Again we were forced to face new problems in the form of French and Geometry I. After many attempts at Bonjour, Madame Brown, Comment allez-vous. Monsieur Reed? , and how do you prove triangles congruentby a.a.a.? . The majority of the sophomores were ready for the summer vacation. 45 ROW I: Bruce Wilson, Richard Rod- erick, Fred Teague, David Allen, Leonard Jordan, Richard Courcy, Marshall Davis.

CLASS OF 1961 At 8:10 a.m. on a brisk September morning, a group of ninty-eight bewildered freshmen started their first day at M.H.S. We found that we were divided into three homerooms under Mr. Scott, our patient class ad- visor, Mr. Reed, and Mr. Watson. In a few weeks Mr. Watson left and Mrs. Black took his place. Our class officers elected were George Michael, president; Carol Paulding, vice-president; Deborah Mitchell, secretary; Carol Morrow, treasurer; and Jo- anne Shepherd, historian. Patricia Tobin, George Ket- chem, and Thomas Martin represented us in the Student Council. After one class meeting, we decided to have representatives from each homeroom meet wit h the of- ficers to discuss class affairs and make a report of the meeting to their homerooms. We carried on the traditional selling of coke at the football games which proved financially successful. The freshman class was well represented in the band, but the sound of our glee club would have struck terror into the heart of any teacher except Mr. Cowgill. Jane Gratton, Nancy La Fratta, and Judy Reynolds were awarded positions on the cheerleading squad. Sue Clark, Barbara Johnson, Penny Lopes, Ann McNulty, Deborah Mitchell, Carol Morrow, Carol Paulding, Jo- anne Shepherd, Pam Smith, Gretchen Thomas, and Patricia Tobin represented us on the Field Hockey squad. On the girls basketball squad were Deborah Mit- chell, Carol Morrow, Joanne Shepherd. Gretchen Tho- mas, and Patricia Tobin. The boys on the football squad were Charles Davis, Marshall Davis, Tilden Davis, Jimmy Domineau, Roy Elsworth, Sid Ketchum, Tom Martin, Jack Richardson, and Terry Wilkins. On the basketball squad were Tom Ahearn, Charles Davis, Marshall Davis, Mel Egelhoff, George Michael, Wayne Rankin, and Jerry Quinlan. By now we really feel a part of Marshfield High and have had a most rewarding and happy year. 47 Class of SS” ALUMNI Allen, John - to be married Austin, Janet - married Barbeau, Patricia - Model Blackman, Nancy - University of Massachusetts Blass, Barbara - Pennsylvania Hospital School Bowering, Irene - married Bump us, Calvin - Franklin Engraving Clark, Sandra - Hairdresser Curran, Joan - John Hancock Insurance Company Dobson, Nancy - married Ela, Nancy - Saint Lawrence University Enright, Victor - U.S.A.F.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council meeting is i ow in session, declares President Peter Henderson. We will now have the secretary ' s re- port. On December 8, 1957, the Student Council held its eighth meeting with Vice-President James Tingley presiding. Advisor, Thomas Grady, was present, and all seventeen members were in attendance. On this date, the Council made the final order for the green and white Marshfield- sweatshirts and lapel pins, making a total of fifty sweatshirts and three hundred lapel pins sold. Christ- mas decorations for the school were discussed. We decided to put evergreen bows inside the school and a wreath on the front door. Too, a committee was chosen to plan a nativity scene for the front lawn. Also at this meeting, the six council members who repre- sented Marshfield at the fall Student Council Convention gave re- ports. Finally , the meeting was adjourned, respectfully submitted Jean Van Amringe, Secretary-Treasurer. The president accepted the report and asked if there were any new or old business. A question was raised concerning the Student Council pins, and the committee in charge reported that the order had been sent. The next topic of discussion was the Council ' s new project, the sale of Marshfield High School book covers. The price was settled upon, and a committee was chosen to manage the sale. A motion was made and seconded that the meeting be adjourned, and the vice-president declared it officially closed. Thus is the procedure of a typical Student Council meeting. XNAT10NAL£. HONOf?

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Last year eight senior class members received the highest honor the school can confer- -membership in the National Honor Society. They were: Rosemary Cervelli, Kit McNitt, Jane Stephens, Linda Morrow, Linda Parker, Eunice Costello, and Patricia Johnson. Marshfield High School has been a member since 1955 in this organization which was founded in 1921 by the National Association of Secondary School Principals. The Honor Society strives to promote character, leadership, and service as well as to produce a higher academic achievement. To be eligible for membership, a student must main- tain an average of eighty -eight as a junior and eighty- five as a senior; moreover, his criteria, his character, scholarship, and service. As seniors, one of our first duties was to elect of- ficers. They were: President, Rosemary Cervelli; Vice- President, Linda Parker; Secretary , Virginia Venti; and Treasurer, Patricia Johnson. On October 7 , 1955, ten of our senior class members were initiated into the Society. They were: Robert Mitchell, Diana Curren, Janet Hagar, Kenneth Shep- herd, Thomas O ' Brien, Helen Callahan, Nancy Brown, Jean Van Amringe, Eileen McGuire, and Susan Drake. We hope to sponsor an activity in the spring and are looking forward to attending a convention at Duxbury High School with Mr. Blackington, our helpful advisor. At present, we are serving as monitors. Finally, we will hold an initiation for the future members of the Society.

They check books out and in, arrange them, and are responsible for keeping them in good condition. Librarians are students who show serious interest in books, who are in good academic standing, who have shown ability to carry out responsibilities, and who enjoy giving service to others. They work during their study periods and may be recognized by the small green file box and the check-out books piled in front of them. At our first meeting with our advisor, Mrs. Etelman, we elected Rosemary Cervellihead librarian. The head librarian ' s duties are to preside over meetings, to keep a record of new books, and to supervise the library and librarians. As assistant head librarian we elected Lee Baldwin. She may be called in to take the head li- brarian ' s place in her absence. We also appointed Rosemary Cervelli as our Student Council representative. This was our first year to be represented there, and we consider it a great honor. In connection with that organization we obtained several more dictionaries and paper to put in the library for the student ' s use. At a later meeting Mrs. Etelman brought up the idea of having a book review §nd tea. We all agreed to this and decided that December fifth would be the day. We chose as pouters, Mrs. Herbert Ryder and Mrs. Edwin Martinson. Each librarian could send out two invitations to adults or friends. Kit McNitt was made chairman of a vital committee, refreshments. Finally the question was asked, Who would like to volunteer to review a book? We need three ! By the end of the meeting we had found our three very willing volun- teers. Soon it was December fifth. All the food was in, the ushers ready to greet guests, and there was, of course, the last minute flurry to make sure everything was as it should be. The first event of the afternoon was the welcoming address by Rosemary Cervelli. Then came the three excellent book reviews. June Stevens gave her review first. It concerned the book MEN AGAINST THE SEA by Charles Nordoff and James N. Hall. Then Fredus Carpenter reviewed the book LINCOLN AND HIS GEN- ERALS by T. H. Wilson. THE SOUND OF THUNDER by Taylor Caldwell was presented next by Linda Parker. These were followed by refreshments which were de- licious. All who attended the tea had an enjoyable time. ROW I: Amelia Barboza, Phillis Reed, Janice Coughlin, Susan Drake. ROW II: George Ketchum, Michael Grinnell, Thomas O ' Niel, Mr. Grady, advisor, and Philip Michelini. POINT SYSTEM All the extra curricular activities of each student are recorded on individual cards in the Guidance Di- rector ' s office. The responsibility of keeping these cards in order is up to the members of the point system committee. The committee is composed of representatives from each class, the number of representatives being pro- portional to the number of students in the class. These representatives include Susan Drake, senior; Janice C oughlin, junior; Michael Grinnell, Thomas O ' Niel, and Phyllis Reed, sophomores; and Philip Michelini, Amelia Barboza, and George Ketchum, freshmen. The senior representative presides as chafqnan of the com- mittee and is also a member of the school ' s Student Council. Meetings are called to check the progress of the committee members and to discuss any problems that arise, but regular meetings are not scheduled. The activities of the Point System Committee are under the direction of our Guidance Councilor, Mr. Grady. 53 ROW I: Priscilla Bryant, Martha Hayes, Jane Allen, Marcia Thomas, Kerry Theran, Kenneth Shepherd, William Bachman, James Fielding, Thomas O ' Brien, Frances Hale, Claire Michael, Jean Flagg, Katherine Waddicor.

MARSHALAIRS The Marshalairs.our selective vocal group, has had a very successful year. Established in 1956, the Marshal- airs consists of members of the junior and senior classes who have met the vocal standards set by the group. The group meets five times a week under the direction of Mr. Burton Cowgill, with Diana Curren as accompanist. This year the Marshalairs, now definitely estab- lished, were busy every minute. The first session in September saw us busily learning Handel’s Messiah. December seemed a long way off, and many times we grew discouraged, seeing no reason to practice so hard this early in the year. In October, taking a two week break from the Mes- siah, the Marshalairs sang at the National Honor So- ciety induction and at a school assembly. With the arrival of November, they recommenced the work for their big event. As December 15th drew ever closer, the soloists were busily rehearsing and trying to fight off the cases of jitters that were sure to come. Soloists were: Janet Hagar, Mary Keene. Helen Calla- han, Wendy Damon, Janice Moran, Nancy Brown, Thomas O ' Brien, William Bachman, Fredus Carpenter, James Fielding, and Kerry Theran. Our greatest thrill came as we sang the last noteof the Hallelujah Cho- rus and our audience began their applause. We were all very proud of our two accompanists. Diana Curren and Miss Dorothy Ferry, who did a wonderful job. Also in December the Marshalairs performed for the annual Christmas assembly, the Women ' s Club- Evening Division, and for the st udent body at Hull High School, singing selections from the Messiah as well as other Christmas numbers. With our Messiah concert over, we looked ahead to our numerous spring activities. In March several of our members participated in the New England Music Festival held in Dover, New Hampshire, and in the All- State Music Festival, which was held in Springfield, Massachusetts. In April several also participated in the South Eastern Massachusetts School Bandmasters Associ- ation, which was held in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The Marshalairs presented the first All-Chorus Con- cert which was held at the High School early in April. The music was widely varied to appeal to the tastes of all. It included religious anthems, songs of the south- land, modern music, and many quartets and double quartets. In May, the Marshalairs took part in the Annual Spring Concert which combines the band, Marshalairs, and the Freshman Glee Club. On the following day , the group journeyed to North Attleboro, Massachusetts to participate in the Southeastern Music Festival, where they received a very good rating. As the year comes to a close, we have many mem- ories which remind us of the wonderful times we have had in bringing joy to others and to ourselves --through music. On Dec. 15, the Marshalairs will perform Handel ' s Messiah at 3:00 in the high school auditorium. Burton Cowgill will direct, with Diana Curren as the accompanist with the as- sistance of Miss Dorothy Ferry, assistant supervisor of music in Middleborough. All are invited to attend this performance which is free of charge. Watch the conductor ! ! ! ! It is interesting to note that Handel ' s Messiah which is being performed by the Marshalairs Sunday, Dec. 15, was written in the short space of 24 days in 1741. It was first performed in Dublin in 1742, and the first two parts only are given every Christmas by most of the world ' s famous choral groups. Members of the chorus and soloists for Marshfield High School ' s production are rehearsing daily under the direction of Burton O. Cowgill. )S Altos at work. 55 ROW I: Kathi McNitt, Joseph Cunning, Nancy Brown, Joan Rankin, Lois Cowell, Linda Morrow.

BAND As we look back upon another year of musical en- joyment, we feel justly proud of the fine work the Marshfield High School Band has done. Under the di- rection of music supervisor, Mr. Burton Cowgill, we have attained many rewarding goals. We began the year in fine style by playing during the half-time at the Marshfield -Scituate game. Since the band ' s peppy music seemed to lend spirit to both the players and the on-lookers, we played at six more games, some home and some away. Home games were preceded by pep rallies which put everyone in high spirits. Along with the football games, we marched in a parade on Veterans ' Day, November 11. After Christmas vacation we settled down in earnest to hard practice to prepare for our many spring activi- ties. The first of these was the Annual New England Music Festival, held on March 19-22 in Dover, New Hampshire. Several members of the Marshfield High School Band took part in this concert. They were: Kit McNitt, Janice Moran, Claire Michael, Diana Curren, John Jones, Kenneth Shepherd, Charles Roswell, and Josiah Standberg. The following weekend, March 29, Kenneth Shep- herd represented M.H.S. at the All-State Band Music Festival in Springfield, Mass. The month of April saw much rehearsing for the aimual SEMSBA Concert, held this year in Plymouth, Mass, on April 21. Marshfield High School ' s partici- pants were: Kit McNitt, Joseph Cuiming, John Jones, Josiah Strandberg, Jean Flagg, Charles Roswell, Ken- neth Shepherd, and Diana Curren. Our annual Spring Concert, held this year on May 9 atthsMHS Auditorium, proved very successful. How- ever, our activities had not ended, for the next day we journeyed to the Annual Southeastern Massachusetts Festival in North Attleboro, Massachusetts. We were very pleased and proud to be able to carry home a Di- vision one rating. As May drew to a close, we marched in the final parade of the year, the Memorial Day Parade. It is certain that the Seniors, as well as the rest of the band members, will never forget all the wonderful times we have had together. For all of this we thank Mr. Cow- gill--and music! 56 57 ROW I: Mr. Cowgill, Janice Coit, Patricia Bryant, Barbara Dobson, Judy Barbeau, Linda Heuser, Patricia Sweinimer, Diane Stewart, Alice Floyd, Joan Rankin, Margaret Brown, Janice Emery, Nancy Ellis, Sandra Shurtloff, Susan Collins, Elaine LaFratta, Dede Bullard, Judy O ' Brien, Ronalyn Raymond.

GENERAL GLEE CLUB Nay, nee, ni, no, nu--Perhaps you have wondered what this strange language is which echoes through the halls of Marshfield High every Tuesday morning, first period. In case you haven ' t guessed by now, it is the General Glee Club warming up for a period of singing under the able direction of Mr. Cowgill. This group is made up of interested members from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes, and is, more or less, a preparatory glee club for Marshalairs. With the patient accompaniment of Janice Coughlan, they sing such delightful ditties as Round ' n ' Round and Stodola Pumpa ,a cheerful little song about a boy , a girl, and a barn pump. They may not be as able as the Marshalairs, but they certainly do try. At present, they are learning to sight read, breathe correctly, and note read. Apparently, one is supposed to breathe through the diaphragm and after several hilarious demonstrations by Mr. Cowgill, they tried it. Where in heaven ' s name is a diaphragm? They hope to master these soon and begin to sing some more difficult pieces than those on which they are work- ing now. In case you have ever stopped tolisten and are won- dering if this is an all girl glee club, the answer is no. The boys are there, and you really can hear them once in a while! 58 ROW I: Carol Ranahgan, Kristina Klinger, Lois Cowell, Penelope Lopes, Lloyd Hobbs, Rodney Perkins, John Beck- with, Roger Egan, Marsha Fader, Donna Hynes, Ann Kelly, Ruth Allen.

Director - Mr, Cowgill. FRESHMAN GLEE CLUB Every Monday morning, first period, the Freshman Glee Club meets in the music room to enjoy a period of singing and learning some of the fundamentals of music. They are beginning their musical education by learning to sight-read which is done by working on a different selection each week. Their program has included; Let All Things Now Living , Round ' n ' Round , You ' llNever Walk Alone , Around the World in Eighty Days , and several other pieces chosen by Mr. Cowgill, the able director. Mrs. Brown has faithfully accompanied them as has Diana Curren. They both deserve a Purple Heart for all the patience they have displayed through the many re- peats of each song. Along with sight-reading and learning to sing the various selections come the vocal exercises. Although some of them object to these, the fun and enjoyment they get out of singing makes up for this minor annoy- ance. We certainly appreciate your efforts, Mr. Cowgill, to make a good glee club out of us. 59 ROW I: David D ' Amato, Ann Linskey, John Waddicor, Janice Goughian, Lloyd Salvetti, Claire Michael, Jeff Lang, Hilda Simmons.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY After only three short weeks of rehearsal, the curtain rose on our Junior Class play, Maybe Love. Despite a zipper that broke on Anne ' s evening dress five minutes before she was supposed to wear it on stage, a door that simply wouldn ' t open, cues that were always somehow missed, the cast worked hard and put its best foot for- ward making the production a success. The story of Maybe Love revolved around Judy Corbin and her strict mother who would not allow Judy to take part in any of the social life in town. How Judy went to the biggest dance in years with the handsomest boy in town and fell in love with her tutor made up the remainder of this romantic comedy. The audience will not soon forget the other char- acters of the play: Aunt Mill, always ready to help Judy with her problem mother; Aggie, the maid who was really more like a member of the family; Penny Hodge, Judy ' s best girl friend, the typical teenager whose favorite expression was holy socks. Remember catty Cornelia, car-crazy Hunky, bashful Hawthorne, and shy little Wopsy? How could anyone forget them! To the members of the Junior Class, play rehearsals were not new experiences. We had been fortunate enough to have presented two plays previous to this, one as eighth graders and one as sophomores. However, we had never before encountered a director like Mrs. Etelman. I want the first act down pat by Monday! Sound familiar? The cast will never forget her pacing up and down in front of the stage, pencil in one hand, playbook in the other, correcting our mistakes and mentally asking herself how she ever got into this. You must admit, when no one could remember which way was down right, things might get just a little mad- dening. All too soon came dress rehearsal and, with it, a host of new corrections and directions from Mrs. Etel- man. When someone came backstage and announced that a certain senior whose initials are Kerry Theran had wrapped his car around a tree just a few minutes previous, the resulting commotion almost knocked the scenery down. What? Where? Is he all right? I don ' t know but you should see the tree! Let ' s have it quiet back there. (This last, of course, from our director.) Aside from the minor interruption, the rehearsal went as scheduled and, as a reward, Mrs. Etelman ( after a little coaxing) agreed that it was TOO late to write that English composition that was due the next day. The Junior Class expresses its appreciation to Mrs. Etelman, who sacrificed a great deal of her time and energy to make the play the success that it was. 60 TH- ; JUNIOR CUSS of Marshfieit; fl.lgh School presents M A Y B E L 0 V E coiri 0 dv ohrso rets) V iisn CHARACTERS (In order of their first appearance) Mrs. Corbin Janice Moran Aggie Janice White Cornelia Biggs Kathryn Waddicor Sally Brown Martha Hayes Judy Corbin Claire Micheal Aunt Mil Jane Allen Penny Hodge Janice Coughlan Bobbe Hodge Barbara D ' Amato Richard Lance Lloyd Salvetti Hunky Bowman John Waddicor Geraldine Woopsy Bingham Ann Linskey Vincent Atwater Jeffrey Lang Hawthorne Perkins David D ' Amato Diana Pollard Hilda Simmons SYNOPSIS Place: The entire action takes place in the Corbin living room, in a small New England town.

SCIENCE CLUB The science department of Marshfield High School formed a science club this year to promote interest in science. At our first meeting we were given a fascina- ting lecture by the Telephone Company on transistor radio tubes. We then elected Kenneth Shepherd, presi- dent; Robert Mitchell, vice-president; Janet Hagar, secretary; and Andy Girard, treasurer. We organized our constitution and by-laws and decided to elect a librarian, Sylvester Gookin, and a reporter, Diana Curren. One of our major activities was a field trip to the State House to visit the Food and Drug Administration ' s laboratory. Mr. Michael was kind enough to give his time and show us the laboratory as well as giving us some delicious food. Our future plans are aimed at putting on the Science Fair in March. We are proud of a successful first year and hope for many more to follow. 62 IN MEMORIAM John Rhodes You cannot say, you must not say that he is dead. He is just away.

FOOTBALL The Marshfield football squad, led by co-captains, Pete Henderson and Ben Fernandes, experienced a very peculiar and interrupted season because of the Asian Flu and other circumstances. With only a few returning lettermen. Coach Ander- son and his new assistant coach, Robert Marshall, faced a rebuilding job to fill the gaps left by last years grad- uating seniors. Much credit should be given to Coach Anderson and Coach Marshall who did an excellent job of keeping up the traditional Marshfield spirit during the weeks which followed in which we played only two games in nine weeks. Although Marshfield was the underdog, they led 6-0 atthehalf, but fell victim to Scituate in their first game 27-6. The next four weeks became an unexpected rest due to cancellation, postponements and open dates. Again the underdog, we rebounded to defeat West Bridgewater 20-13, which was followed by another two weeks test. With no games to drive the team, the spirit was on the verge of falling. Next we lost to Cohasset, this year ' s May Shore League champions and runners-up in Class D, 26-13 in a game that was much closer than the score indicates. Our game with Holbrook was cancelled but we came backtobeattheleague ' s new-comer, Hull, 19-0. How- ever, we were upset by East Bridgewater 23-0 in our next game. The Thanksgiving Day game made up for the rather disappointing season. It was one of the finest high school games in Marshfield ' s history. Near the end of the first half, end Bob Holmes suffered a broken leg. At the time we were trailing 13-6. During the half the team de- cided that they were going to take the winning ball to Bob. Within minutes we came back with a touchdown to tie the score. With less than a minute left to play, end Pete Henderson took a pass from quarterback Larry Nangle and raced across the goal line with the winning touchdown to beat Hanover 19-13. Trophies for outstanding lineman and back were awarded to Pete Henderson, chosen as an all-scholastic end, and Jim Tingley, voted the outstanding football player in Class D on the South Shore. Bob Holmes and junior guard, Carl Neilson, were selected on the first team sponsored by the Marshfield Mail. 66 ROW I: Constance Ela, Janet Hagar, Carolyn Moulton, Linda Parker, Kit McNitt, Susan Drake, Jane Stephens, Diana Curren, Eileen McGuire, Eunice Costello, Virginia Casewell.

FIELD HOCKEY 1957 Again this year, the Girl ' s Field Hockey team brought fame to the halls of Marshfield High School by winning the South Shore Field Hockey Championship. After many hard practices, came our game against Silver Lake, which was suddenly upon us; we beat them 7-0. As the hockey season progressed, we went on a series of away games and defeated Hingham 3-2, Norwell 5-0, Duxbury 3-0, Cohas-et 3-0, and Holbrook 9-0. We then defeated Hanover 3-0 , and Scituate 1-0 in home games. The second team also had a very successful season by winning all of their games except two, which they tied. This is the first year that Hull has been incur league; however, we were unable to play them on account of sickness. Our game against Plymouth was also can- celled. The game to which we all looked forward was the Scituate game. We had a short and hardy practice the day before, so that we would be ready for anychallenges that the team might present. The game was a long and difficult one, but we were finally victorious. No doubt our faithful followers wimessed a great game. At the beginning of the season, we elected co-cap- tains Jane Stephens and Sue Drake. Wendy Damon and Judy Barbeau were our managers. Both the co-captains and the managers did an excellent job throughout the entire hockey season. At the season ' s end, the co- captains, with the help of the other squad members, received a traditional throw into the ice-cold showers. Those responsible for the goals that brought us to victory during this season were: Connie Ela (8), Ginny Casewell (5), Jane Stephens (4), Janice Moran (4), Eunice Costello (3), Diana Curren ( 3), Eileen McGuire (3), Judy O ' Brien (1), Linda Morrow (1), Janet Hagar (1), and Debbie Mitchell (1). We owe a great deal to the Booster ' s Club who gave us coke and cookies after every home game. Undoubt- edly the visiting teams are also very grateful to them, for food is always welcome and especially so after a tough game. Once again, under the coaching of Coach Williams, we brought forth a top team for Marshfield. We hope that, in the years to come, the second team and the other members of the squad will continue to bring cham- pionships to the halls of M.H.S. and preserve our repu- tation for good sportsmanship and teamwork. 68 69 ROW I: Ed Fonseca, John Hubbard, Doug Wicher, Jim Tingley, Pete Henderson, Louis Lopes, Larry Nangle, Bob Fernandes.

BASKETBALL On the Monday following the Thanksgiving vaca- tion, the Marshfield High School basketball team be- gan practicing for the 1957-58 season. With seven teams now in the league, and, consequently, a tighter schedule, there was no time to lose. The squad was cut to twenty-four boys after a week or so of practice, and CO -captains were chosen a few days before the first game. The honors fell to Pete Henderson and Jim Tingley, two of the team ' s four lettermen. The second game was just before the Christmas vacation, the annual encounter with the alumni. Evidently, the former hoop stars had not lost their skill, for they served the boys their first defeat of the season. Raring to go, the Rams played their first game on December 19, in the new Hull High School gymnasium. They beat the new-comers to the league by a score of 64-50. The only action during vacation was a scrim- mage with Plymouth. Marshfield started off the new year with a thriller against Scituate. The Rams emerged victorious from this close contest, the first of many throughout the season, by a score of 62-59. Right on the heels pf the Scituate game came another exciting one with Nor- well. Norwell won this one 53-49. The season seemed to mn in cycles, for after the two close ones came two easy victories. The first was over Cohasset 78-38; after that came a triumph at Duxbury 74-52. Running true to form, the next two encounters were real heart-stoppers. On January 17, the Rams came up against league-leading Hanover. In the packed Hanover gymnasium, the top team defended its position with a victory over Marshfield 87-82. Before the excitement had died down, the Marshfield fans were treated to one of the closest games of the season with the other newcomer to the league, Holbrook. At the end of four periods of play, the score read Marshfield 57, Holbrook 57. In the overtime play the Rams emerged on top 65-59. With the season half over the Rams began the second round of play with another victory over Scituate 77-48. This was followed by the defeat of Hull 83-72. The next encounter almost turned into an upset by last -place Cohasset. Marshfield was able to win 59-56, but it gave everyone a scare. A victory over Norwell 83 -7 5 then put Marshfield in a tie for second place with Norwell. This brought up the biggest game of the season -- with Hanover. In the most exciting contest of our season, Hanover came from behind in the last few minutes to win it 78-77. Another win over Duxbury 89-57 gave the boys a high enough percentage of games won to be in the Tech Tourney. The last game of the season was another close one with Holbrook. The Rams defeated the Bull- dogs 68-62, giving the Rams a season with eleven wins and three losses. Norwell edged them out of second place by defeating the first -place Hanover team. The Rams were not through yet, for the next week they were to enter the South Shore Tournament. The week after that was the Tech Tourney. The Marshfield Junior Varsity, too, had a success- ful season, defeating every team in the league twice. This, along with the majority of underclassmen on the varsity squad, leaves Marshfield with bright prospects for future hoop seasons. 70 Jim Tin3lejj, Co-cap+.

BASKETBALL This year, under the able leadership of Mrs. Wil- liams, the M.H.S. girls ' basketball team had a highly successful season. Our season ' s record of fifteen wins and one loss made us, with Scituate, Co -Champions of the South Shore League. We began the victory trail with successive wins over Hingham, Hull, and the Alumni. During these early games, Mrs. Williams experimented with different groups trying to find the best combination for the all- important game with SCITUATE! On the first day after Christmas vacation the team journeyed to Scituate. The game was hard fought and Marshfield never gave up. However, a poor second quarter left us far behind, the Scituate finally won 60- 45. It was a disappointed team that rode back to Marshfield, but all of us had one thought in mind-- January 23, the return game with Scituate. The following day an important event occurred. The entire first team bought rabbit feet. With these good luck charms tied to our sneakers, we breezed through our following games with Norwell, Cohasset, Duxbury, and Hanover. Our next game took place at Holbrook. Since the first Scituate game we had thought of little else but our return game, but Holbrook changed all that. The score at the end of the half was 12-10 Marshfield, and at the end of the third quarter it was tied 22-22. We suddenly realized that THIS was the game we had to think about and win. Playing careful and determined basketball, we scored 22 points in the final quarter to win. Then came the BIG game. No one gave us much of a chance. The score at the end of the first quarter seemed to justify their thoughts, for Scituate lead 16-6. We weren ' t going to be beaten that easily. We stormed back onto the floor and at the half had closed the gap to three points 25-22. Although there was still another half to play most of us knew that we could do it. We were still behind at the end of the third quarter 37-34. However, in the fourth quarter, we finally pulled ahead for the first time in the game and stayed ahead to win 51-48. It was an exciting game all the way through. The following games were an anti -climax. Although we played poorly, we beat Hull, Cohasset, Norwell, Hanover and Duxbury in our return games. The last game of the season was with Holbrook. Since Mrs. Williams was seriously ill, Mr. Blackington took over. We were anxious to show Holbrook that we really had a championship team, and after a close first half we pulled away and won. Co-captains Diana Curren and Linda Morrow, along with the rest of the Seniors, wish next year ' s team the best of luck. With a competent coach like Mrs. Wil- liams, next season should be as successful as the 1958 season. 72 5usan Drake ' Vj ' Coach Wii Iams Wcndu Damon Diana Currcn, Co-capt.

The boys took a hard fought victory fromScituate in the opener 11-8. They then went on to obtain victories from Hanover, Duxbury, Norwell, and Cohasset. They proved in the Norwell game that they are effective under pressure with 3 mns in the ninth inning to win 6- 3 after trailing 3-1. Marshfield then traveled to Scituate where they met their only league defeat of the year in a hard-fought 15- 9 battle. Recover ing from their setback they ended the season much the same as it began with repeated wins over Hanover, Duxbury, Norwell, and Cohasset. In a playoff game with Scituate, the co-champions, we won a hard-earned 7-2 victory. Marshfield was then selected to enter the state tournament and found little trouble in eliminating their first opponent, St. Patrick of Water- town, 17-3. Our next opponent, Scituate, eliminated us with a hard-fought 13-9 victory and thus brought the close to Marshfield ' s successful baseball season. Mr. Reed, the proud coach, looks forward to next year with much enthusiasm as he has many lettermen returning and is hoping for another successful season. 74 ROW I: Joan Rankin, Gail Sheehan, Janice Emery, Frances Hale, Karen Bullard, Mary Lou Studley, Henrietta Horn.

SOFTBALL 1957 The Marshfield girls softball team began practice in the beginning of April. About 35 girls went out and later the squad was cut to 15 players. We elected Judy Barbeau and Janice Coughlin to be our co-captains. On April 29, we were all set for our first softball game with Cohasset. We lost the game 21-16 but we were deter- mined to win the next game. We did, but by forfeit. Scituate failed to show up. Our next game was with Hingham. Two tragedies happened, we lost 42-7 and Dede Bullard, our catcher, broke her finger. During practice the next week Sandra Yasevicz, a valuable player, sprained her wrist and was out for the rest of the season. On May 13th, Holbrook came to Marshfield but left wishing they ' d never come. Marshfield won 17-9. Ournextgame with Hingham showed a decided improve- ment in our team. We lost, but the score was 32-20. For our next game we traveled to Norwell to defeat their team 17-9. Our last game was with Hanover on May 27. We played four innings and then were rained out. We made up the game on the 29th and won 11-7. Our lineup for the season was: PatFrugoli andFrances Hale, and Phyllis Reed, pitchers; Deidre Bullard, Alice Floyd and Henrietta Home, catchers; Janice Coughlin and Joan Rankin, first base; Gail Sheehan, second base; Mary Lou Studley and Janice Stewart, third base; Judy Barbeau and Norma Bullock; Shortstop; Karen Bullard, Ginny Casewell, Anne McGuire, and Sandra Yasevicz, outfield.

CHEERLEADING Cheer! Fight! Win !, shouted not only the Cheer- leaders but the entire student body, as in chorus they inspired the teams toward victories! Another school year, another season of cheerleading, pep rallies, and fun was at hand ! And before we knew it. After eighteen girls aspired to the Cheerleading Squad, our coach. Miss Tiano, chose the following girls: Captain, Jane Cohee. Beth Murphy, Lee Baldwin, Ann Lennon, Janice Stewart, Judy O ' Brien, Pat Meserve, and Marcia Paulding. Fight! Fight! Win! and the football season ended ! Tosolvethe problem of cheerleading at both the girls ' games and the boys ' games in basketball, nine substi- tutes were chosen: Captain Pat Curran, Judy Lynch. Jane Stephens, Elayne LaFratta, Nancy LaFratta, Bar- bara D ' Amato, Jane Gratten, Carol Yasevicz, and Judy Reynolds, Results: a peppy cheering squad performed at all basketball games! One of the highlights of the year new uniforms! Each regular squad member made her own uniform; the school supplied the necessary material. Slight changes in stylingf the square neck replaced the V-neck on the jumpers, and the Mandarin collar replaced the Peter Pan collar on the jacket) modernized our uni- forms. which we like very much. Our administration and athletic coaches cooperated with us in arranging time for pep rallies prior to each game. The students packed the gymnasium; the cheer- leaders demonstrated the cheers; the clapping, singing, and cheering rocked the rafters of the gym ! Another successful happy season is almost over. All our practice sessions were fun; our November Record Hop was fun; and our working together with the coaches, the students, the team members was fun! We want to thank everyone, our athletic coaches, our administration, our fellow students, and especially our cheerleading coach Miss Tiano, for their efforts to help make this a great season! 76 ROW I: Carl Neilson, Larry Nangle, Stuart Carlton, John Ulanowski, Robert Long, James Tingley, Andrew Girard.

TRACK In April, 1957, a group of boys under the direction of Mr. Marshall began training for the first track team in MHS history. The first season was rather impromptu, but it was the beginning of what will be one of Marsh- field ' s popular sports, along with football, basketball, and baseball. The 1957 season included participation in league meets with Scituate, Hanover, and Cohasset, and three conference meets at Weymouth, Bridgewater, and Rock- land. On May 4, the team met for their first encounter with Scituate, one of the strongest teams in the area. Scituate was the victor by a score of 45-38. First places were taken by Jim Tingley in the 220 -yard dash. Bill Moses in the half-mile event, and Kevin Leary in the discus throw. A Marshfield team of four boys won the relay race. A number of boys took second and third places. The second meet was lost to Hanover, 52-51. This was a close one, the final score being determined by a close relay race. Stu Carlton took a first place in the 100 -yard dash, Jim Tingley won the 220, and Tom O ' Brien took first in the mile. Seconds were taken by Ben Fernandes, Bob Stengel, Larry Nangle, and Bill Moses. The third league meet at Cohasset ended in a de- cisive victory for MHS, 55 1 2--38 1 2. The half- points were given because of a tie in the relay race, each team getting 2 1 2 points. Marshfield got a num- ber of firsts at Cohasset: Tom O ' Brien --mile. Bill Moses --one-half mile, Kevin Leary- -discus, Ben Fernandes --shot put, Stu Carlton--100, Larry Nangle--220, and Chris O ' Brien- -440. Seconds were taken by Larry Nangle and Bob Mitchell. On a Saturday morning at the end of the season. Coach Marshall and a few of the boys entered a con- ference meet at Weymouth. Larry Nangle took second place in the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes, and Tom O ' Brien took a third in the 880. The whole squad then went to the South Shore Con- ference meet at Bridgewater. Several of the boys placed in this meet. The eight schools in the league partici- pated, and Marshfield ended up in fifth place. At the final meet of the season, the South Shore Principals Meet at Rockland, Marshfield was represented by about eight of the boys. This meet was attended by a number of schools, and the only Marshfield athlete placing was Larry Nangle, second in the 440. Larry broke the previous record for this event at Rockland, but his opponent was less than one second faster. In all, it was a good season considering that it was the first track team Marshfield has had. 78 AdvQrfi’semen ' t ' S ° ° ° Man Qoefh forth unto kh work and to h(5 l bour until Qvenina ° ° OP PATRONS Our patrons helped make this TIDE a record of our happy high school years, an undertaking successfully completed through their en- couragement, cooperation, and contributions.
