Class September 12, 1956, is a date to be well remem- bered, for it marked the arrival of one of the truly fine classes in the history of Winchester High School. Let us look back and recall the fond mem- ories of marching through four eventful years in these hallowed halls. Peering through the cobwebs in our mind, we can still picture ourselves hopelessly groping through the corridors in search of our new home rooms . . . ably assisted by the multitude of teachers and traffic officers saying that there is a way to get to 301, but not on this stairway . . . the first encounter with Miss Bailey's interpretation of Julius Caesar . . . Miss Walsh's Latin fsum, esse, phooey, futurusi . . . our own elections bringing forth Bucky, Judy, George, and Sue . . . the dance for parents . . . four lunches . . . the initial bout with midyears . , . wading through finals and earn- ing a much-needed vacation. Reluctantly, we returned anew, a year older, a year wiser, but yet still under-classmen. Arthur, Bob, Chippy, and Leroy were our leaders as we encountered so many new situations , . . the A.A. , . . incorrigible humorists at the awards assemblies . . . winning at One-Act Play Night . . . the Sopho- more Hop . . . the Plaids . . . ontogeny recapitulates philogeny and all the other biology jazz . . . the water main episode, giving us that four day week- end . . . adding some sports talent to the Jay Vees and, in rare cases, to the varsity . . . those fortunate enough to make the cheering squads . . . devotionals . . . . Mr, Finigan's fractured geometry . . . bidding a sad farewell to Miss Bailey . . . Gaul again being divided into three parts by Mr. Skerry and Dr. Copeland . . . public speaking introduced in English . . . another round of midyears . . . and far too soon -finals . . . and we were off toward our first year as upperclassmen. Journeying into our third glorious year, we will never forget chem. lab and the stench of H25 . . . Mike, Bucky, Sally and Mary holding the reins . . . the cake sale for our anemic treasury . . . another vaudeville . . . contributing to the Junior-Senior play . . . our part in W. H. S.'s perennial sports wins . . . driver-ed. class . . . the Pink and Gray fol- lowed by the Red and Black . . . S. A. T.'s and Nat- ional Merits . . . poor, misunderstood Macbeth . . . Capers in Crystal . . . class rings . . . a farewell to another favorite teacher, Mr. Butters . . . the mad campaign, posters, bringing forth the famous fine signs by Gan . . . the great flu vaca- tion . . . U. S. History with Miss Milliken . , . and ending the year with that fabulous squirt gun rage. History And then, in a flash, we were the courageous sen- iors, with George, Bob, Rex, and Joyce blazing the trail through a year filled with problems, hard work, and fun. ln years to come we will recall our successful sport seasons . . . meeting Mr. Book fMonsieur Le Livrel . . . that outstanding Winches- ter-Woburn girls' football game, which was won by our Sachemettes . . . Sue and her cheerleaders . . . Nancy and Linda setting the pace for the tumbl- ettes . . . Amba, Jack and Butch and their newly formed boys' cheering squad . . . Donna's happiness at being Best Director at One-Act Play Night . . . the day the bomb scare threw everybody into an uproar . . . those stately traffic officers . . , Phil, Leroy and Jack leading the Cross-Country team over hill and dale . . . Richie and Dick paving the way for the best gym season yet . . . cheese for Benrimo , . . the Gleemen and our successful open houses . . . Harvey Simian taking over the school . . . Laurie gracefully capturing the U. S. figure skating titles . . . Broadway at W.H.S. for the annual Vaudeville show . . . madly filling out those college applications . . . our final finals . . . class night , . . the biggest and best Prom yet . . . and the biggest moment of all-Graduation. We now leave W.H.S. for the last time, never to pass this way again. With a little sadness, much happiness, many thanks, and best wishes, the class of 1961 bids farewell.
