The Sixth Form Histor Sixty boys have at one time or another enjoyed the privilege of calling themselves members of Bel- mont Hill's Class of 1957. Some twenty-three never made it, and thehgallery of ex-'57's is as follows: George Heck, Grades 5-10: Dear little George high- lighted his Hill days mostly by producing subdued motor noises which really were a warning that he thought cars much more important than education. Rog Kellett, 5-8: VVisely saw little future in B. H. crew and left for Brooks. Tony Oberolcrfer, 5, 7-10: He needed more intellectual stimulation. Exeter proved the solution. Guy Turnbull, 5-6: One hockey player who never made it. Bill Pokross, 5-7 : His rights as a citizen were al- ways being trampled on here, and he thought us pretty dull so he joined the Cambridge School of Weston for a more liberal education. Dick Zimmerman, 5-8: Couldn't stand the rapid pace eof '57 and joined '58. Soon left altogether. Pete Blackman, 6-10: Sketcher of airplanes, guns, he joined '57 via '56 and soon disappeared entirely. Joe Hayes, 6-8: His world was the great outdoors. Mike Rollins, 6-10: Mike lived from suspension to suspension, teetering on the brink of expulsion, and he finally achieved that too. A proud graduate of Weston High. Larry Holliday, 7: In and out so fast we remember nothing. Jim Dwinell, 7-10: One of the few jocks who ever escaped B. H. captivity. Proceeded to take a tour of some of the better private schools of New England. Bill Hill, 7-10: All broken up when Peeps left, but Bill never strayed far from B. H. social circles. Dave M ugar, 7-S: Needed another year to mature photographically. Bob Prescott, 7-10: Percy and his bees went to Lexington High, thereby almost bankrupting our canteen. Hugh Stubbins, 7-8: One of the more active members of the I Hate 'Mole' Club, but he didn't have the nine lives of a Mike Rollins. Bill Nichols, 8-9: He was the school's all-time cham- pion brownie, Mike Brody, 9: Here was a legend almost as great as that of Casey Jones. Mike was the founder of the Brody-Gudas-Tuttle threesome. Peter Gudas, 9: My master calls. Dick Robnett, 9: A baby-face kid whom no one can recall. Peter Holmes, 9-10: He couldn't stand being on the south side of the Concord Turnpike. Bob Mitchell, 9-10: Lots of talk, many fights, and back to Wellesley. Ted Moulton, 9-10: '56, '57 and out. Barclay Henderson, 9-11: Black Bare liked '58 better. Dave Regamey, 10-11: Came to us from '56 and we were sorry to see him go. Now to the survivors of this eight year ordeal. Research shows that only four remain from that first year-Pete Crone, Richie Mostrom, Claude Welch, and Steve Wilcox. There was an undefeated Pups football seasong Nature Boy Gregg soothed our rest hour with se- lected readings for young juvenilesg Deac Bur- roughs held music and English classes for those who were interested in Red Sox lectures: hir. T. in- sisted that we were the worst bunch of would-be artists that ever existed, and claimed that '57 would never amount to anything but talkg the Pawnees won the Intramural race, and Claude won his first prize. GRADE SIX Moose Mulliken continued his Uncle Smedley stories, lNIole lectured us, among other things, on what not to do on Halloweeng Mr. Croke performed his swami act for the umpteenth timeg and Deac still refused to read us And Sudden Death. Frank O'Neil was the newcomer of the year. Bow Down Sailorl' featured those glamorous Damozonian maid- ens Mostrom, VVelch, and VVilcoxg the Log was the first of many publications for these latter two. GRADE SEVEN The front steps were ours, and up them came John Davidson, John Simon, and Pete Tague. Tague and Dwinell were inseparable, Si played goalie in hockey, an astounding revelation in itself g the an- nual carnival grossed S48.58 in pennies, Richie Mos- trom served a second glorious year as class presidentg Moose produced hundreds of cost + profit prob- lems, and Deac finally relented and read to us that gruesome tale of mayhem on the highways And Sudden Death. There was D Day at Moose's Buzzards Bay camp, and the class do- nated a plane tree in return for lWole's many color- ful lectures on such subjects as the virtues of a cold shower, extra sweaters unless the temperature was over 750, and wearing rubbers when the sky was so
