At times it seems patriotism is a dirty word. Patriotism can mean many things to many people. It may be a lump in your throat as the Flag passes, a visit to Independence Hall, a willing- ness to listen to dignified dissent but an irresistible urge to speak out against unjustified criticism. Patriotism is love of country that knows no bounds of race or color. It is Abraham Lincoln, Jesse Owens, Bob Hope. It is the common denominator— the bond which has transformed a wilderness into the brightest, richest sanctuary of freedom in the world. Will you use your acquired knowledge, your newly developed freedom, your ability to express yourself to support the ideals of your country or will you join the few who see little good in our philosophy? No, Patriotism is Not a dirty word. Edward H. Gillespie, Principal It has been said that Knowledge comes by taking things apart, analysis. But wis- dom comes by putting things to- gether. May your future be bright with wisdom derived from knowledge. B. Gollis Assistant Principal 49 It is a pleasure to wish the Class of 1968 well in their educational and vocational pur- suits. Never before have the citizens been nnore eager to invest in your education, and they expect more. It is the fond hope of the educators of the Bedford Public Schools that the graduates take advantage of the opportun- ities for the benefit of each individual and the nation as a whole. Ado Commito, Assistant Superintendent of Schools The availability of educational nnedia to you, the students of this era, provides you with an unlimited opportunity to learn in direct ratio to your intensity of interest, your applied effort, and your individual intellect- ual endowment. Whatever constructive goals you may establish for your life endeavors are within reach but do require some high degree of perseverance and determination to achieve them . Each of you has the potential to make a real contribution to the progress of the world community. Your personal qualities will determine in large measure just what you will contribute to the future. May I say that it has been my great priv- ilege to have known you as students and to have had a part in your total educational pre- paration to this point. My best wishes are with you as you move ahead to higher educa- tion and vocational living. John Glenn, Superintendent of Schools MR. TINGLEY CHAIRMAN MRS. CALLAHAN MR. WHEELER 1 MRS. FOWLER MR.

Performing well on both offense and defense the squad scored early and held their lead throughout the game. Bedford ' s running attack was highly successful with junior back. Bob McGrath scoring three touchdowns and Greg Richardson scoring another. Bedford 19 Acton 12 In a hard-fought contest, the Bucs defeated their opponent from Acton on a second half touchdown by Jim McArthur. The decisive points came late in the game, when McArthur plunged over from the one yard line. The remainder of the points were scored by Bob McGrath on runs of three yards and eleven yards. Bedford 27 Maynard In what was to be a game with a stiff competitor, Bedford easily routed Maynard 27-0. The team capitalized on their opponents ' mistakes and went on to total their highest offensive output of the season. Jim MacArthur was on target as he hit Greg Brzeski in the end-zone twice; Bob McGrath and Greg Richardson scored six points each on the ground and Oscar du Priest booted three extra points. Bedford 21 Westwood 8 The Buccaneers traveled to Westwood and found little competition as they triumphed 21-8. The defensive squad contained the opposition in a commendable fashion, holding them scoreless through three quarters. Offensively, Bedford ' s running attack proved effective once again with Bob McGrath scoring his seventh and eighth touchdowns of the year and Greg Richardson adding one more to his total. Bedford Lynnfield 14 The first defeat is always the most disappointing, and such was the case for Bedford. Lynnfield entered the game with little hope for victory, but caught the Buccaneers off-balance and scored on the opening kick-off. They never relinquished the lead. Bedford fought back a number of times, but it was not to be. Each time Lynnfield held strong and at the final gun the score stood, Bedford 0, Lynnfield 14. Bedford 14 N. Reading 18 Top-ranked North Reading came to Bedford expecting a battle, and they got one. In a hard-fought contest from the whistle, both teams moved the ball well. Bedford ' s scores came on two McArthur-Brzeski pass plays, one of which covered twenty-five yards. The score see-sawed back and forth until late in the second half, when North Reading tallied the decisive points. Bedford made a final assault, only to have it voided because of penalties. Bedford Wayland 30 In their last home game of the season, Bedford had little to be happy about. Class D Champ, Wayland, entered the game with high spirits and found Bedford unable to pull together an offense or defense; they took advantage of the situation scoring early and often. For Bedford, the defeat proved costly, as Allyn Winslow was injured and lost for the remainder of the season. Bedford 6 Weston 14 The Buccaneers were denied their fifth victory once again— this time by Weston. Bedford dominated the first half, and scored as Jim McArthur lofted a twenty-five yard pass to Greg Brzeski, but could not hold onto the lead. Weston came back strong following half-time, scoring twice. The game marked the end of Dual County League play in which Bedford finished with a 3 and 3 record. Bedford 6 Burlington In the traditional Thanksgiving Day game, Bedford avenged their last year ' s defeat by dumping Burlington, 6-0. It was a rain-soaked, mud-covered field that saw the Buccaneers defensive front four all but annihilate the opponents ' offense. Jack Hilker, Bill Murphy, Bruce Czulada, and Tim Edwards put constant pressure on Burlington, causing fumbles and assorted mistakes. Offensively, Bedford ' s score came when Jim McArthur ran the ball over following a long pass play to Bill Murphy. Greg Richardson played a fine game, running the ball well on offense. The outstanding player award went to captain, Greg Brzeski, who once again played a great game. Besides his pass-receiving duties, Greg also ran on a few occasions, keeping the offense moving. 73 JUNIOR VARSITY 79 MAJORETTES Jean MacDougall, JoCarol Newberne, Ginger Walsh, Marti Stitt, Nancy Bolduc 81 VARSITY FIELD HOCKEY 86 CROSS COUNTRY The Dual County League Co-Champions for the past two years, the Bedford Cross Country team was dethroned in 1967. In a season marked with its ups and downs, the young squad experienced a 10 and 4 record and finished second in the league. The team was led in scoring by senior co-captains Ernie Druan and Steve Grove, both three year veterans. Following them up were underclassmen Rich Lousararian, Steve Gellatly, Jim Giencke, and Gary Hanson.

Bedford moved out of the cellar and displayed fine play throughout the season. Although the team was inconsistent in the winning column, Bedford always provided lots of excite- ment. Outstanding players were numerous, but the one who best exemplified Bedford ' s determina- tion was Bill Primmerman. Playing steadily and showing much hustle. Bill was in on nearly all the action. Because of his good sportsmanship and excellent play, he co-shared the title of Dual County League Most Valuable Player.

Winning four of its last six games, Bedford finished fifth in the Dual County League. The squad was led in scoring by Terry Kirk (aver- aging over seventeen points per game), and coupled with Greg Brzeski ' s clutch play and Jim McArthur ' s fine outside shooting, Bedford was a threat to all opponents. The team was well balanced and comprised mostly of juniors, which is encouraging for next year. John Dalhausen, Rad Moeller, and Tim Edwards led the underclassman ' s Varsity representation. The Junior Varsity team enjoyed a fine 10-7 season under coach Adams. Displaying promising prospects for the coming seasons, the squad ' s chief contributors were Joe Sainato, Roy Russell, and Jay Porter.
