yQctorum 1952 PulLU 8u PL S. eniors °t Soil on oCatin School s venae rJ ouii f aiteur (J3oilon, lljaMct clxuselts June, 1952 We, the Class of 1952, consider it a privilege to dedi- cate our Book of Deeds to Clinton Burnett Wilbur, and to welcome him into membership in the Class of 1952 The fatherly guidance and instruction he has tendered us will remain eternally within our minds, along with the cherished memories of this faithful and honest friend. You have arrived at the crowning point of your secondary school career. As you have experienced some joy, looking forward to this day, may your gladness be of the highest sort in attaining this goal. Presently you will shift your efforts to another interesting field of endeavor. You must not expect the burdens to be lifted for you, but you must hope and pray for strength to endure them. Education must point out the responsibility of each individual to himself and to the community. No one can fill your niche in the world’s work. There are many things in life which, if you do not do, no one else will. Choose your calling with care, and give the best that you have to it. You have received a rich heritage here. Share it with others as the opportunity offers. Clinton Burnett Wilbur CL a 55 p oem The boy plunged into the forest. He was young and curious. A few steps within its cool vaults, And he heard a murmur. At first faint and intermittent, Its volume increased Until the wind urged the pines To speak it clearly to the heavens: “Therefore, get wisdom; And, with all thy getting, Get understanding.” The boy looked for the speaker. “Forsake her not, And she shall preserve thee.” It pealed forth To all the glades and hollows. The boy listened with wonderment. “Exalt her, And she shall promote thee; She shall bring thee to honor When thou dost embrace her.” Where was she? How could he find her? The boy turned away And began to search. The stars Thrust their heads through the night’s black mantle, And withdrew As the rays of the sun began to push them back. The boy was weary. He had searched Everywhere in this wood. He had met others like himself: Some still looking, some without hope. Countless were the times He had heard the voice Echoing from tree to tree, Louder each time. The bov came out of the forest. He was young, but somehow different. He had not found her; But before him Lay a boundless field, Open and free, Beckoning. Here were new r things to be discovered: Things to pick. Things to plant. Suddenly a beam of sunlight Split the cloud above, And he saw her. He knew where he was to go now. He turned And gave a farewell glance to the forest. KEITH PIERSON GARLAND 5 oreworc When this day is written into history, it will not be known because of the struggles and partial chaos that is a part of present-day living; it will be known because of the tremendous advances in civilization that lighted a path through- out the course of the first half of the twentieth century, and that, barring a ca- tastrophe. will produce new horizons in science, education, and the welfare of man during the second half of this same century. It is our belief that the seeds sown by the graduates of Boston Latin School are responsible, in a large measure, for the present progress of civilization. Therefore, our theme for this volume will be The Progress of Civilization, and the importance of modern man’s predecessors in this A r ery Progress. Throughout this book we will endeavor to illustrate the bearing upon the present, of these men, graduates of the Boston Latin School, who produced the past. Charles William Eliot, educator and president of Harvard University, will keynote the section upon Administration. Ralph Waldo Emerson, philosopher and scholar, will preface the Seniors’ section. Activities will be introduced by Samuel Pierpont Langley, a man whose diversity of interest produced the mod- ern age of aviation. Senator Charles Sumner, a brilliant organizer and leader during the crucial struggle against slavery, will introduce the section upon Or- ganizations. General Charles Devens, lawyer and jurist, who realized the neces- sity for physical preparedness, and served his country ably when it called, will symbolize Athletics. These men, each of whom contributed vastly to the culture and Progress of the freedom-loving people, are indicative of the true product of our era, The Progress of Civilization. Administration 7 Seniors 19 Activities Athletics 97 Organizations 119 F minidtra tion CHARLES WILLIAM ELIOT Class Of 1850 American Educator and President of Harvard University During his forty years as President, he introduced the elective system, raised entrance requirements, de- veloped the graduate schools, and introduced other educational reforms which resulted in a raising of academic standards, and which greatly influenced American higher education. After his resignation in 1909 he devoted his time to public affairs. He advo- cated civil service reforms, the League of Nations, and the World Court; and he was active in peace programs. 8 On these pages are found candid views of our faculty, the men who shaped our thoughts for four or six years during our Latin School career. Whether we liked them or not, or even whether we agreed with their teachings during these four or six years, is still a matter of dispute. One thing is certain, however. We, their students, owe them a great debt for their services. The very least they have done is to give us of their maturity; the very most is to share their knowledge and their friendship. “A 10 10 Composition.” “Take Joe Zilch’s Case.” ‘Serving It Up” Men such as Mr. McKim and Mr. Dunn we shall never forget. They have imparted in us the true spirit of the Latin School, the spirit of preserving and cherishing our tradition of honor and service. As we leave the Latin School, we may look hack on years well spent, only because of these men, who have made our stay worth-while. It was a long and often tiresome pull, but looking hack, we can say that our stay at the Latin School was enriched by the men who taught us in its halls. “The Bad News” W. WcJ i m3 n r “The future is not what it used to be,” said a speaker at an educational convention recently held in Boston. The more 1 ponder on that statement, the more convinced I am of its truth. On the theory that the problems you young men will have to face in the future will be similar to the problems faced by graduates who preceded you, a Career Day was held last March. If you recall, old “grads” returned to the school to tell you what you might expect if you undertake careers in manufacturing, business, medicine, teaching, music, engineering, the ministry, the law, or public service. Although all of the talks were informative and exceedingly helpful, the addresses of Rabbi Shubow and Governor Dever will linger in our memories for the rest of our lives. As you graduates look into the future and try to plan your careers, you may be enveloped by -a wave of discouragement and hopelessness. You may have a feeling of being trapped by your surroundings and circumstances. “How can we plan for the future,” you may ask, “when the chances are we shall be in the Army or the Navy in a couple of months?” It is true that some of you may be in the armed forces quicker than you realize; and it is equally true that all of you will probably have to devote a year or two of your lives to the service of your country. Should such a possibility turn you into cynics or defeatists? I think not. Whenever you feel unhappy about your lot, just pause to consider the outlook of young men and women of your own age in Europe and Asia today. As you leave the halls of Alma Mater, no one can foretell the crises you will have to meet, the weighty problems you will have to shoulder, the duties of some high office that may be yours to carry. You young people cannot know, it is impossible for you now to imagine what great figures you may, in the course of time, become. It is inevitable that some of you will play a leading part in making the history of our times. Yes, some of you will become famous, and bring great credit to our school, our city, and our country. Yet it is equally true that some of you will encounter frustrations, shattered hopes, and disappointments. To these may I quote the words of Socrates: “If a man would move the world, he must first move himself. ” The temptation will be great to blame other people, and situations beyond your control, for lack of success. It is so much easier to explain away failures by placing responsibility on some one else, rather than by doing the unpleasant thing: examining your own short-comings and then correcting them. Always remember, success comes from within, not from without. Admitting that the future is not what it used to be; and that the problems you face are critical and almost insurmountable, may I quote the poet Words- worth who wrote about equally trying times, and yet truly said, “Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, But to be young was very heaven!” X fa 13 First How: Messrs.

The life of America’s most distinguished literary per- sonage may best be summarized in a statement of his own ideals: Let man serve Law for man; Live for Friendship, live for Love, For Truth’s and Harmony’s behoof; The State may follow how it can, As Olympus follows Jove. Through his essays, orations, and poems, he became the spokesman of independence, sincerity, and realism in the intellectual life of America. 20 Ralph Waldo Emerson ARNOLD IRWIN ABELOW “Arnie “Ab” H arvard “ Self-trust is the first secret of success.” Entered Class IV from the Solomon Lewenberg School in 1948.

Members and Friends of the Graduating Class: Attendance at the Latin School is a privilege;, and, more particularly, grad- uation from the Latin School is a privilege. It is on the word privilege that I would focus your attention this afternoon. I would like to talk to you about some of your privileges; and I would invite you to meditate on the word privilege and on the reality of privilege , in the hope you may leave here today with an entirely refreshed, if not new. concept of the providential character of privilege. The word privilege is in certain ill-repute nowadays. The word privilege appears to be the object of a systematic campaign of discrediting not merely on the part of the under-priveleged, who might be pardoned; but some- times on the part of those we normally look to for preservation of our privi- leges, because they have been the beneficiaries of them. So I ask the men of the Latin School to consider with me this afternoon quite briefly the notion of privilege and to do so in terms of privileges. You men are much more privileged than you may ordinarily recall. You are privileged in the circumstances of your birth. It is a very real privilege to be born in America ; it is a privilege to be born under these special circumstances of political freedom and of religious tradition, which are the privileged char- acteristics of America. It is a privilege to be born in this particular genera- tion, face to face alike with the opportunities for the alert — and the challenge to the valiant, which exists in a time like the present — a time of revolution and of far-reaching changes. So it is a privilege to have been born here and to be alive now. Most of you, I dare say, all, are privileged in the families from which you come. Our average Latin School-type families come from a frugal and hard-working background. In the main, the men of our school do not come from the background of the poverty which degrades nor of the wealth which degenerates. Thanks to the industry of our people, to the relatively equal opportunities of our land, our typical families tend at the moment to be moderately prosperous, moderately secure. God has lifted us out of the poverty which hampered our forefathers of the several races and nationalities represented at the Latin School, but by a Mercy almost as great He has given us relatively few rich families to become effete and undisciplined, a burden to themselves and a bore to the rest of the community. You are privileged in your families, privileged in your breeding, privileged in your opportunities and most particularly privileged in the back- ground of education at the Latin School. I must remind you, however, that privileges carry with them or create inequalities; and I must remind you, further, that inequalities based on privi- lege carry with them grave responsibilities. It is almost political heresy nowa- days to talk about privilege as being providential and desirable and welcome and, to insist that inequality is inevitable and frequently good — that inequali- ties are the conditions of life in a good society. This, I repeat, is almost heresy in our political world. A selection from the address delivered on April 2U, 1952 at the Class Day Exercises by Most Reverend John Joseph Wright Bishop of Worcester of the Class of 1927 74 TctivitieS SAMUEL PIERPONT LANGLEY Class Of 1851 American Physicist and Astronomer Although he received his only education at Boston Latin School, he continued his scientific studies at the Boston Public Library. He is credited with sev- eral highly technical inventions, without which the first airplane would have been impossible. He also made scientific studies concerning the flight of heav- ier-than-air bodies, and was granted fifty thousand dollars by Congress for the construction of a plane capable of flying a man. Though the first flight was unsuccessful, his plane eventually was flown, but not before the Wright brothers had conducted a successful flight. 76 Samuel Pifrpoxt Langley _ . “Look!” “A Wee Bit O’ Scotland” “Fancy Steppin’ ” “In A Career in Music . . “The Governor” “The Varsity Drag” Joachim C ' rognale Vice President Eugene Lanzillo CU Off; icerS Edward Rosenthal Presiden t d ZaJJ d ommittee David Herlihy Chairman William O’Brien John Quinlan Secretary- Treasurer Patrick Walsh 80 First Row: Brazukas, Rosenthal Walsh.

The duty of the boys chosen was to see that the Class Rings were delivered on time, in good condition, and at a reasonable cost. Cries of financial pain were heard issu- ing from the Library on the day when a representative of Scholastic Jewelers came to measure the fingers of each Senior — and to “catch” a five dollar deposit. Each Sen - ior then designated whether he wanted the traditional purple amethyst or the less ex- pensive onyx. The early arrival of this year’s ring is a tribute to the hard work of the Ring Committee. The few weeks after their ar- rival witnessed a rather strange sight— Seniors greeting each other with out- stretched LEFT hands. “The Seal of Knowledge” 81 On April 24, the Senior Class observed its traditional Class Day with appropriate exercises. Edward Rosenthal, President of the Class of 1952, delivered the opening address to the undergraduates and guests. Following this speech an accordian solo was rendered by Richard Zeytoonjian, after which the Class Poem was recited by Keith Pierson Garland, and the Class Oration was given by Robert Myron Gargill. The next selection, the Class Prophecy, by Neil Moriarty and Richard Zeytoon- jian, gave rise to much hilarity. A bagpipe solo by Wilfred MacKay preceded the next bit of light-hearted fun, the Class Will. This mirth-provoking piece, by Myer Klein and Harold McKittrick, is the “last will and testament” of the Class of ’52 by virtue of which the class makes various bequests to the school and its teachers. The audience then was treated to an inspirational address by an outstanding member of the 25-vear class, the Most Reverend John Joseph Wright, ’27, Bishop of Worcester. The Bishop addressed the student body on its future place in society. He asserted his belief that all men are not created equal; inevitably a hierarchy of intellect must appear. Our concept of equality as protected in the Constitution is a political concept alone. We must never confuse it with the mistaken idea of in- tellectual equality. It is inevitable that certain people will be naturally brighter, more advanced, and more cultured than other people. It is these people, who form the intellectual hierarchy, that Latin School students must strive to emulate. The Bishop’s forceful delivery and stirring address will long be remembered by those present. 82 The final exercise was the members of the Class singing the Class Song, written by Sheldon Kaufman. Shortly afterwards the Class and its friends filed from the hall. Credit for the success of Class Day goes in no small part to Mr. Gordon Irons, who burdened himself with the task of pro- ducing the program, and to Mr. Philip M arson , who gave generously of his time and patience in judging the entries for the Class Will and Prophecy. Thanks also go to the Band, led by Mr. Trongone, for a diversified selectio 1 of music, and to the Class Day Committee, David Herlihy and. Eugene Lanzillo, co-chairmen.

The Country Club’s beautiful surroundings provided an ex- quisite and delightful background for the year’s most colorful and long-awaited so- cial event. The success of the Prom was beyond even the anticipations of those responsi- ble. After dancing at the Country Club from eight to twelve, the general order of the evening was for an excursion to the nearby Meadows, to Revere or Nantasket, or some other entertainment center. Here the revelers enjoyed themselves until early the next morning. “Smile Pretty” 84 First R6w: Hamlin. Lanzillo. Walsh. Crognale, Quinlan. Rosenthal. Herlihy, O’ Brien. Davidow.

The Class of ' 52 had for its guest of hon- or Air. Clinton R. Wilbur, who retires this year to become an honorary member of the class. After devouring the delicious dinner of roast turkey, the members of the Class sat back and listened to an imposing ar- ray of speakers. Our witty toastmaster, Air. Dunn, handled the introductions. Among the speakers were Air. Patten. Air. Levine, Air. AIcKim, and our guest of honor. After the inevitable production of the traditional cigars, the many in attendance scattered in various directions with the trading of fond farewells. The Class Banquet never would have enjoyed the success that it did had it not been for the efficient work of Mr. Dunn and the Committee. “Counting The Profits” 85 P . 2 Jf The most perfect day imaginable was the scene for Boston Latin School’s eighty- eighth annual Prize Drill Exercises. All the excitement, color, and ceremony tra- ditional to Prize Drill Day were present as the school’s twenty-four companies marched forth into competition. The two winners in this competition turned out to be the 8th Company, led by Robert Harrington, in the 1st Regiment; and the 12th Company, led by Joseph Mal- goglio, in the 2nd Regiment. Both these boys now hold the rank of Colonel. The other prize-winners were: 1st Regiment — (2 1 10th Company, Colonel Harold Mc- Kittrick; (3) 12th Company, Lieutenant Colonel John O’Donnell; (4) 9th Company, Major Charles Demakes; (5) 4th Com- pany, Major Barry Quinlan; (6) 7th Com- pany, Major William O’Brien. 2nd Reg- iment — (2) 11th Company, Lieutenant- Colonel Joachim Crognale; (3) 8th Com- pany, Major Eliot Daniels; (4) 10th Com- pany, Major Richard Kotelly; (5) 4th Company, Major Alan Green. In addition to the company awards twenty individual citations, ten in each regiment, were awarded to those boys ad- judged most proficient in the mid-day In- dividual Manual of Arms Competition A new innovation to Prize Drill Day was also witnessed at mid-day when an exhibition was presented by the Trick Drill Team, initiated at B.L.S. this year. This select group, led by Keith O’Donnell, per- formed a series of maneuvers both in marching and in rifle-control, much to the amazement and entertainment of those in attendance. The Drum and Bugle Corps, led by Cap- tains Chris G. Palacas, Theodore Manazir, and Myron J. Ricci; and the Band, con- ducted by Captains Walter McLean and Morris Dratch, still further enlivened the day’s festivities with a number of musical selections and an adept performance in the field of marching formations. Ten mem- bers of the Band and four members of the Drum and Bugle Corps were singled out for special awards for excellence in musical work. Drill is the one activity in which all boys take part. The hard work of the officers in preparing every boy for a peak performance was culminated in the practi- cally uniform marching exhibition by over twelve hundred lads striving to bring hon- or to their companies, to themselves, and to their captains. The minds of the Seniors will long be 86 crowded with reminscences of their day — the day for which they prepared all year. They will recall the nervous tension pent up inside them as they were about to enter the ring, the gradual relaxations as they went through their paces, and again the tenseness of waiting for the announcements of the prize winners. Then arrives the most unforgettable moment of them all — the sharp military voice of Lieutenant Can- non reading the winners, the exultation of the prize winning companies, the high- pitched voices at the fence, the sadness of those who did not win. Lastly the awesome sight of the entire Corps of Latin School Cadets marching in revue — and the grue- some thought that some day, some day soon perhaps, these same boys may have to march “for real”.

Each year on this day, outstanding alumni will return to Latin School and try to give the “A Latin School Boy” boys an insight into the chances and methods of success in their chosen fields. The first speaker — Charles Daum, President of the Daum Optical Company — dealt with manufacturing and salesman- ship. He was followed by B.U.’s Dr. John Treanor, who discussed medicine. Teach- ing was covered by Dr. William Looney, President of Teachers’ College. Arthur Fiedler, conductor of the Boston “Pops,” treated the field of music. Next, William Drummey, President of Drummey Asso- ciates, spoke on architecture and engineer- ing. Business was discussed by Edwin Johnson, President of H. A. Johnson Company. Then Rabbi Joseph Shubow, President of the Rabbinical Associates of Greater Boston, addressed the audience concerning a career in the ministry. The final speech was delivered by the Govern- or of the Commonwealth, Paul A. Dever, who concerned himself with public service and law. For arranging the excellent program, the School is indebted to Mr. McKim and Mr. Dunn. This year’s success is bound to make Career Day a fixture on the School calendar. 88 CLs W;t( In the fourth year of the reign of George I, supreme ruler of the Boston Latin School, we, the sturdy survivors of the Class of 1952, declare this to be our last will and testament, and do hereby bequeath the following: Bequests to the Faculty To Mr. McKim we leave our sincerest gratitude and appreciation for tolerating us these many years.

I am that .spirt. I am the spirit of the class only in that 1 am anybody in that class. We ' l, I start my little story by saying that last night I was walking through a particularly confusing labyrinth of streets in one of the quainter parts of the city, when my eye was attracted by a dingy sign hanging in a doorway. It read: Swami Moriarty, Crystal-Gazer. I looked again, startled. Why, there was one of my fellow- graduates. I opened the door and tiptoed down the corridor, while the loose boards squeaked under foot. You can imagine my surprise when an Oriental gong clanged, and there appeared before me a Swami, clad in strange clothing. Neil: Greetings, Sahib. Dick: Never mind that stuff. Don’t you know me?

Gargill Ilodie nos loco viarum discedendarum stamus. Today we stand at the parting of the ways. Having worked ceaselessly for four or six years, as the case may be, we are soon to leave alma mater and the pro- tection and security which she has afford- ed us during these most important years of our lives. Most of us will enter col- lege; some will take up work immediately; and others will serve in the armed forces. Regardless of what we do hereafter, all of us will have to assume more important and more serious responsibilities. On this, our day, it is fitting for us to look back and to look ahead. It is fitting for us to be happy, yet to have our hap- piness tempered with sadness. We are proud, yet humble; brave, yet still un - certain. As we look back and evaluate our years here, we find that we have opened our minds and hearts to reason, understanding and knowledge. Under the guidance of our masters, there has been impressed on us, either consciously or subconsciously, a respect for justice and honesty. We have taken the theoretical knowledge derived from texts and discussions, combined this with the understanding we have acquired from our personal contacts, and have built a durable foundation on which our suc- cess in life will depend. Of all public high school students, we may consider ourselves most fortunate in regard to the training which we have received. It is true that the road we have traveled has been a difficult one — one, per- haps, that has seemed too antiquated to be of any practical value. Yet it is a road which has conditioned us for the ob- stacles that lie ahead. Yes, there are easier, less exacting courses; but, just as the mason does not use weak materials in building his house, so have we not used them in building for our future. Perhaps the first and most natural emo- tion that we feel is one of great happiness as a result of completing an important phase of our work. Yet, when the time comes to leave behind the ceremonies and customs, which have become integral parts of our lives, there will remain a nostalgic feeling of sadness. How many times have we assembled in this magnificent hall? How many times have we enjoyed decla- mations, argued in forums, and thrilled to annual plays? How many were the times that we were rebuked, praised, and in- spired. Omnia haec in memoria tenebimus. All these things shall we remember. And. although, at the time, we looked upon these programs critically and judged them by their material value — by the degrees to which they vexed or amused us — and by the amount of time they consumed — in later years we shall recall them with great respect and appreciation. None of us will forget the stirrings we experienced when the Drum and Bugle Corps marched on Prize Drill Day, and when the band or orchestra played at assemblies. Do you remember the seconds of intense quiet, the suspense before prizes were announced? These recollections and the friendships which we have established during the past years will prove to be priceless treasures of tomorrow. Truly it is said that “Great- er than the minting of a gold-crowned king is the long-lived remembrance of a lovely thing.” On the day of our graduation we shall join the ranks of a distinguished alumni, many of whose names adorn this hall. Although there is good reason to be proud, 94 our transition shall be accompanied with much humility, for soon we must prove ourselves. The future lies before us. In many respects the world situation, into which we shall enter, is very menacing. We, as a class, are graduating at a decis- ive point in world history. The problems which we shall have to face will be more severe than any which have confronted a Latin School graduating class since World War II. Foremost is the threat of total warfare. Today men are dying in Korea in spite of the fact that truce teams have been working toward peace for nine months. The nations of the world are en- gaged in an armament race — the greatest in history. History has proved that the course of such a race has always led to war. It may very well be that this so- called “police action” in Korea may be the prelude to World War III. For us that means military service, interruptions to our work, and sacrifice. Yet, in spite of this sword of Damocles, which threat- ens civilization, we must look to the fu- ture with faith; hope; courage; and, above all, a willingness to work. In a world of conflicting ideologies, we must renew our faith in, and better understanding of, de- mocracy. We have studied American his- tory and familiarized ourselves with true patriots— men like Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Wilson, and Roosevelt. These were the leaders of our country. Theirs is the patriotism which we must possess’ — not the patriotism of jingoes and of flag- waving politicians. We must carry from school to society the spirit of brotherhood that has fostered unity and cooperation among us. For only when men achieve brotherhood can peace be attained. My fellow-classmates, to us has been handed down a great heritage: a Dec- laration of Independence, a Constitution, and a Bill of Rights. With these, we as future voters, as participants in every phase of democratic life, hold in our hands the future of our country. On our should- ers rests the task of bettering ourselves, yes .... but also of carrying on where our adult predecessors have left off. In unstable times such as these mankind looks to this new generation, for it will determine the future of our civilization: whether there be peace or war, progress or retrogression. If our country is to progress as she has done in the past 175 years, we, as lovers of freedom, must learn to think independ- ently. How have we become the greatest nation in the world? Because our prede- cessors had the initiative and courage to forge ahead against reactionary opposition. So must we forge ahead. Never, never must we lose the pioneering spirit of inde- pendence that has made us great. Today, the greatest threat to our soci- ety is not so much external as it is in- ternal. It is perhaps not only commu- nism, but it is also moral and ethical cor- ruption. We must therefore posses a mor- al strength which will preserve our ideals against the corruption and the undermin- ing materialism of the present day. My fellow-classmates, the world chang- es constantly, governments come and go, economies vary like the wind; but the basic principles of good never change. The Ten Commandments have as much mean- ing today as they had when Moses received them on Mt. Sinai. The great words of Thomas Jefferson must be remembered. “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with cer- tain inalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.” These words are as true today as they were in 1776. The principles which they represent have not changed, nor will they ever change. Let us inspire within our- selves a love for these eternal ideals; and no matter what difficulties or obstacles confront us, we will attain success. 95 55 C.

Chorus: % CHARLES DEVENS Class Of 1835 American Lawyer, Jurist, and General Throughout the Civil War he served in the Federal Army, becoming a colonel of volunteers in 1861 and a Brigadier-general in 1862. After the war he was a judge of the Massachusetts superior court, and later an associate justice of the supreme court of the State. From 1877 to 1881 he was attorney-general of the United States in the cabinet of President Hayes. 98 Charles Devens “The Groaners” “Skimming The Lumber” “The End of the Game” ‘Swinging Free’ djadhetlail The best B.L.S. quintet since the 1947 Tech Tourney kings nearly annexed a championship for the Purple in 1952. Vic- tories over the top teams in the Conference, after a loss in the season’s opener, catapul- ted the Latin basketeers into a first- place tie; but, unfortunately the Red and Black of Dorchester, defeated earlier in the season by the Purple, took a close game, 44-39, thereby snagging the league championship. B.L.S., however, finished a close second with a 10-4 record. A1 Thomas and Bob Fitzgerald held down the guard posts in steady and able fashion, holding full control of the back court for Latin. Captain Jack Crognale, Lefty Bryant, and Dick Brooks split the forward duties; Brooks and Crognale hogged the back boards; and Bryant featured with his flashy drive-ins. At center was the find of the year, Jim Francis, six-foot-six 102 skyscraper, whose 263-point scoring total (smashing Elmore Collins’ former all-time Latin School scoring record of 204) sparked the B.L.S. championship drive, which fell just short. Francis reached this total by averaging eighteen points per game. Sen- ior reserves Jim Dailey, Ted Manazir, Dan Linehan, Walt Donlan, Harry Shoenig, and Sherra Katz saw heavy service, while under-classmen Frank Dickey, Norm Slini- der, and Ed Dailey earned their letters in the thick of battle. Prospects appear bright for next year, as three starters will return to the Latin ranks: Guards Fitzgerald and Thomas plus, Center “Long Jim” Francis. The Liber Ac forum extends its congratulations to Coach Steve Patten and the team for a great season and extends its hopes for a championship in ’53. “Another Score!” SCHEDULE Latin 32 B. C.

In keeping with the modern trend in football, Coach “Charlie” Fitzgerald in- stalled a modified and highly successful two-platoon system in the Purple and White football scene. Jack Crognale, John Kirk, Ed Rosenthal, Pete Polishuk, Frank Casey, Richie Hailer, and Haig Aghjayan formed one of the most rugged offensive lines in the Conference. The backfield of A1 Thomas, Frank Dickey, “Boots” Con- nelly, and Bob Fitzgerald worked well out of a winged-T formation, and only late-season injuries slowed down their of- fensive production. On the defense, line- men Bob Donahue, Mario Ricci, Bud 104 Doherty, Dick Zeytoonjian, and Ralph Meland — along with hackfielders Sal Compagnone, John Kannegieser, Buddy Washington, and Done White — went into action to combine into a well-organized, effective unit. Phil Arena, Sherm Katz, Norm Slinkier, Bob Scigliano, and Barry Quinlan also saw much offensive and de- fensive ' activity. The highlight of the season was un- doubtedly against a highly favored Dor- chester team in the second-half comeback which gave the Purple a well deserved 14-14 tie. Only White’s attempted field goal, which fell short by inches, prevented Latin from victory. The goal-line stand by the Purple defensive unit in the closing seconds of the Memorial game to preserve a 13-8 triumph provided another thrilling episode in the ' 51 season. The year closed on a sad note, however, as Latin, handi- capped by injuries, went down to defeat at the hands of English, 20 to 0. Thanks are due Coaches FitzGerald, “Pep” McCarthy, and “Joe” King for “Round The Ends” molding a team which was a credit to Latin School; to the unheralded J.V.’s; and. finally, to “Ed” Bennett and “Art” O ' Keefe for their service as managers. 105 The 1952 edition of the B.L.S. pucksters, although opening the season with a bang, ran into continual hard luck and finished the year with a record of three wins and two losses, and two ties. With only Goalie Gene Donnelly as a holdover from last year’s first string, Coach Thomas was faced with the problem of putting together a winning squad, using comparatively un- tried players. A mid-season injury to Cap- tain and Center Ed Coakley, however, seriously hurt the team, and this loss, coupled with other unlucky breaks, forced Latin to relinquish its 1951 City champion- ship. The first line of Ed Coakley, Paul Kel- ley, and Ed Hickey, with Ab Baker break- ing into the forward wall late in the season, carried the B.L.S. attack with Coakley leading the Conference in scoring until his injury. Mike Kelley, Gene 106 McLaughlin, Charley Schroeder, Art Car- riere, Scott Loyall, Vin Looney, and Charley Fox also saw heavy service up front. Dick Andrews and Tom Kelley, brother of Paul and Alike, shared the defensive burden; while Bill White turned in extended service during the latter stages of the campaign. Ron Johnson, Bill Strang, and Ed Leahy also served frequent stints on defense. At goal, Gene Donnelly and Ed Collins ably split the duties, forcing the Purple’s opponents to fight for every score. The Liber Actorum extends its hopes for a championship hockey season next year and its congratulations for a winning season despite continual hard luck. In con- clusion, a word of praise for Coach Richard Thomas and Managers “Okie” O’Keefe, Keith O’Donnell, Alan Bird, and Robert Liss. - “Mixing it Up” Schedule Latin 6 Jamaica Plain 1 Latin 0 Technica Latin 7 Commerce 1 Latin 2 T rade Latin 3 Dorchester 3 Latin 1 English Latin 4 Alemorial 1 Won — 3 Lost — 2 L js 107 ■‘All Down, Set, Once Again the Regimental Champion- ship was captured by the doughty track- sters of B.L.S., this time for the second successive year. Undefeated in four regular season meets, the Purple conquered its arch-rival English High to retain its Re- gimental gonfalon. Outstanding performers in Class A were Co-Captains Paul Rosenthal and Barry Quinlan, Dick Wharton, Lenny De Cor- dova, and Vin Falcone. Other standouts were Frank Dickey, Max Morfield, Chester Rose, and Mel IN filler. Foremost in Class B were Bill Bradley, A] Horwitz, John Boussy, Phil Arena, Eddie Howard, Ronald Mackay, Walter Silva, and Kevin McIntyre. Class C ranks were filled by Dave Rosenthal, Steve Wallack, Dick Marshall, Arthur Mayo, Alvin Serser, Michael Edelstein, and Harvey Ginns. The large number of Class C partici- 108 pants and champions seem to assure Latin School of top-notch representation in track for the next several years., The Liber Actonun extends heartiest thanks and congratulations to the entire championship squad, to Coach FitzGerald, and Manager Steve Greyser.

Prospects, however, look bright for a successful season. Although a starting line-up cannot be definitely picked at this early date, John Kolsti, Jerry Barrett, ami Lefty O’Rourke seem destined to be the mainstays of an able pitching corps. The infield offers a flourishing crop of ball-players. From these Haig Aghjayan seems to hold a lease on first base, while Zummy Katz at second, and Duke Shnider at short will probably provide the Purple’s key-stone combination. The “hot-corner” is strongly contested between Bob Livolsi and Steve Casey. Of these men, second- sacker Katz is the only senior. Catching chores for ’52 will be handled by three big receivers, Paul Polishuk, Ralph Meland, and Ted Nichols. Each posi- 1 10 tion in the outfield will be hotly contested, with Johnny Kannegieser, Bob Fitzgerald, and Frank Dickey leading the pack, closely followed by Herb Monroe and Ed Dailey. As is usual, Latin School lacks power in the hitting department. Coach Fitzgerald is recompensed however by the swift base running of his team, which may hold the key to our future success this year. Next year’s success need not be worried about, for the vast majority of the Varsity reg- ulars are underclassmen, and will return, bolstered by a first-rate Junior Varsity. While allowing no predictions, Coaches Fitzgerald and McCarthy hope for a suc- cessful season in all phases of the sport. “It’s A Bunt!” 111 roA3 c d ountrtj The third year of intra-city cross- country competition proved the most successful yet. Under the skillful tutelage of Cliff Ronan, who once again directed the fortunes of the Boston school candi- dates, the B.L.S. harriers rapidly improved until they assumed the runner-up spot in t he city. In the State Meet, Latin finished a surprising fifth, with three boys in the top twenty. The mainstays of the squad were Juniors Bill Bradley and Dick Wharton. Other dependables included Captain Bross, “Over Hill and Dale” Livolsi, Paquette, Mirkin, Wilson, and Garland. The preponderance of lower-classmen on the squad assures Latin School of an- other excellent cross-country campaign next fall. First Row. Mirkin. Wharton. Bross, Bradley, Garland. Second Row. Wilson. Fivolsi, Paquette, Davidson. Greyser. 112 Mainstays on this year’s club are Cap- tain “Fran” Scigliano, Ed Coakley. “Jim- my” Gibbons, and “Scotty” Loyall. Others who plan to hold a prominent place on Coach “ Dick” Thomas’ squad include Ab- bott Baker, and “Dick” Savrann. The last named is the only Senior on the team, so Latin School seems assured of more teams of championship caliber in the future, es- pecially with the addition of a Jayvee squad of fourth and fifth classmen. This year’s schedule includes the regu- lar round-robin competition in the Bos- ton Conference and the post-season Tour- naments. The scoring system used in the intra-city matches is the Nassau system. Briefly it consists of a nine-point maxi- mum for two teams of two boys each per match. There are three points per team. One for the first, nine-holes; one for the second nine holes, and one for the 18-hole total. “Fore!” What has become by now a perennial habit is the position in which the 1952 version of the Purple and White golfsters finds itself. Once again the B.L.S. golf team is in the role of a “shoo-in” for the City Championship. First Row: Savrann. Loyall, Coakley, Scigliano. Gibbons, Fox. Baker. Second Row: Mr. Thomas, Holtz, Hickey, O’Donnell, Kane, Smith, Brandli, Glasser. Jennis The 1952 edition of the Latin School tennis team again seems a certainty to retain the Boston championship. Although, as we go to press, no matches have been played, since many lettermen are return- ing, Coach Thomas expects an auspicious year. The squad is headed by Captain Lou Bortnick, a four-year letterman, who un- doubtedly is one of the most versatile and outstanding Latin School racquet stars in the past decade. His individual attain- ments include the City Championship and numerous out-of-town victories. This year it is possible that he may attain national recognition. Returning veterans Jerry Sadow, Dave Bernstein, Paul Rosenthal, and Lenny Kogos will also help make the Purple and White net team unbeatable. In addi- tion, the doubles combinations will be strengthened by new additions Yannonni, Goldstein, Ames, Stone, and White. “Net Ball!” Tennis is quickly becoming a major sport; and since an increasing number of boys are competing for a berth on the team, Latin’s domination is assured for the future. First Row: Kogos. Sadow. Bortnick, Mr. Thomas, Rosenthal, Bernstein, Yannoni. Second Row: McLean, Kamens, White. Stone, Hymans, O’Keefe. Third Row : Waskins, Charm, Jacobson, Ay mes, Heifetz. 114 CLASS V and VI The second year of intra-city Junior High School baseball competition sees the B.L.S. Class V and VI club greatly im- proved over last year’s aggregation, and hopeful of winning the championship gon- falon. After eight years of softball play, last year the Junior High Schools shifted to baseball in the first step of a gradual ex- pansion of its Physical Education program. At this writing, our club is enjoying an undefeated season. Top prospects to bolster Mr. Fitz Gerald’s Varsity in future years seem to be shortstop Dick Levine, left-fielder “Slash” Johnson, and pitcher Johnny Cieslik.

This year’s midget quintet played an abbreviated six-game schedule, capturing five contests while dropping one decision. The one loss was a heartbreaker, as the Godvin School outlucked our club in the final minutes to take a 23-20 verdict. The effectiveness of Latin’s five was proven, however, by its halftime lead; but the toll of height, weight, and greater experience could not be withstood, and our boys went down to defeat. Outstanding performers on Coach Mc- “Set-up Shot” Carthy’s crew included the starting five of Lucido, Haffer, Strom, Di Gangi, and Shuster, as well as Corvi, Block, French. Loomis, and Robinson. If these boys con- tinue at B.L.S., look for a continued re- juvenation of the Latin School Varsity quintet. First Row: Gray. Robinson, Hickey, Corvi.

Despite the handi- cap of competing in but two of the four classes, the Purple and White midgets tallied twenty-one points in the Elementa- ry School finals. This performance capped a campaign which brought forth many boys who will help keep the Senior Regi- mental flag waving over Latin School in the future. Coach “Pep” McCarthy’s boys also par- ticipated in the Midget Relay Events dur- ing the K. of C. and B.A.A. games, win- ning both races. To be congratulated for their fine performances there are Keeley, Murray, Molloy, Lieberman, and Meal- witz. Outstanding among this year’s team were Rayfield and Block, in the class D 120; Carp and Strassel, in the class D 50; Katz and Lyon, in the class E 120; Donovan, in the class E 60; and Veiera, in the class C 120.

In 1851 he was elected to the United States Senate, a position which he held for the rest of his life. Fearlessly, and almost single handed, he led the fight in the Senate against slavery, urging the repeal of the Fu- gitive Slave Law, opposing the compromise measures of 1850 and the Kansas-Nebraska Bill of 1854. As a result of an anti-slavery speech in 1856, he was physically assaulted and was incapacitated for sev- eral years. 120 Charles Sumner j ubiica tion AJ, uiSerS Aaron Gordon Philip Marson Alfred Rosenthal 122 Martin Mintz Charles Demakes Herlihy Morante O’Sullivan Eccles O’Leary yearbook C oniniiUci Jerome Davidow Chairman Chris Palacas TJearL ooli SAistcinti Israel B reslow Greenberg Silver Hamlin George Wolkon Stephen Greyser Forgione Heifetz Robinson Goldings Kelly 123 First Row: Forgione.

Davidow, Chairman Martin Mintz George Wolkon Bernard Levine Gerald Silver FACULTY ADVISERS Mr. Philip Marson, Literary Mr. Aaron Gordon, Business Mr. Alfred Rosenthal, Advertising In 1951-’52, the Register marked its 71st year of publication. Ever-increasing printing costs necessitated a continuation of the three-issue policy; but, as usual, quality made up for any lack of quantity. By the end of March, the Register had won another first prize award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. Much of the credit goes to Editor Jerome L. Davidow, who remained calm despite the hectic pace which he and the rest of the staff were often forced to lead. Like- wise invaluable were the other members of the Executive Board: Martin Mintz and Bernard Levine, Associate Literary Editors; and George Wolkon and Gerald Silver, Business and Advertising Managers. This year, as in the past, the Register is indebted to the “big three,” the Messrs. Marson, Gordon, and Rosenthal, for their patience and excellent advice. Thanks also go to Seniors Ernest Potischman, Stephen Greyser, and William Kaden for their work. The Juniors were well represented on the Staff in 1 95 1 - ’.52 by Henry Heifetz. 124 Albert Forgione, Morris Goldings, Charles Smith, Marc Richman, and Barry Robin- son. The Register, the oldest school publica- tion in the country, has always strived to be a superior literary magazine. From the days of its originator, George Santa- yana, to the present time, it has accom- plished its purpose. Through hard work on the part of the students of Latin School, the Register will remain superior ad infinitum. ■‘Picking The Pictures” First Row: Jochnowitz, Smith, McLean, Katz, Hymans, Kolkcn.

William Cannon “The Big Three.” In its fourth year, the Boston Latin School Chapter of the National Honor Society involved itself in a well-organized program of activities. Under the supervision of Lieutenant Can- non, the ambitious program of selling Defense Stamps throughout the school was undertaken. With Louis Fingerman and William O’Brien as co-chairmen of the Stamp Committee, composed of an in- dustrious crew of about twenty boys, stamp sales rapidly mounted to large- scale proportions. The induction ceremonies, at which thirty-five boys were formally admitted to the Society, were held on December 19. Chapter President Sumner Katz delivered the opening address. Then followed speeches by Bernard McBride, who de- scribed the value of Scholarship; Stephen Greyser, who outlined the importance of Service; Robert Gargill, who explained the significance of Leadership; and Alan Green, who stressed the importance of Character. These four cardinal principles are requisites for admission to the Society. 120 The second annual Revue was success- fully presented on April 4. This year’s Revue was highlighted by the addition to the cast of girls from Girls’ Latin School. Credit for the success of the Revue goes in large measure to Production Managers Raymond Temple and Robert Cargill and to Business Manager Stephen Greyser. Undergraduates who have ambitions of acquiring honor and recognition can seek no higher award than the bestowal of a National Honor Society pin, symbolic of lofty achievement in every branch of school life. “The Patient’s Fine” First Row: Chin, Goldings, Donlan.

This year the Camera Club had a sys- tematic program, designed to induct its younger members gradually into the more complicated phases of photography. Slide courses, courtesy of the Eastman Kodak Company, were shown to the club’s mem- bership. The first, “How to Develop and Print Pictures,” not only showed the mechanics of the chemical processes in- volved in making a finished picture, but also explained the theory of all photogra- phy, that is, the relation of negative and positive images. From this simple begin- ning, the lectures gradually assumed a more complicated aspect. In an attempt to explain the mysteries of exposure and com- position, another slide lecture was given on “How to Take a Good Picture.” It was felt that the members benefited greatly from these simplified graphic lessons. The members themselves were en- couraged to lecture before their friends, and lectures explaining the operation of the 128 Polaroid Land Camera, the Leica, and the Speed Graphic, were delivered by several members. President Mintz lectured on ■ ' Color Photography for the Amateur,” which he supplemented with color slides from his own collection. This lecture was particularly valuable because it opened a new vista of photography for most mem- bers. The final lecture of the year dealt with the Celex Stroboscopic Lighting Unit, its operation, care, electronic structure, and synchronization with conventional cameras. This year ' s planned program introduced the amateur into many phases of photo- graphy, and gave the individual members an over-all picture of the potentialities of even the most simple and inexpensive equipment. It also illustrated many tech- niques that the amateur can utilize in taking or processing an artistic photograph. “Getting The Focus.” First Row: Mr. Dunn, Greenberg, Newman, Nardo, Walsh, Shoenig, Kaden, Mintz, Shore, Ivle Feller, Segal, Donahue, DeSisto, Mr. McCarthy.

During the year there were club presentations on such subjects as military training, United States and foreign policies, education, and methods of debating. As usual, for the benefit of the student body, public forums were presented in the school assembly hall by the Club’s members. The officers and the Junior members discussed the Iranian oil crisis, the merits of a classical education, and senatorial immunity. Working with the future strength of the Club in mind, Mr. Sullivan, the Faculty Adviser, and Bob Gargill, the President, together with the senior officers, for the first time instituted a policy whereby low r er- classmen were given greater opportunities to develop their debating abilities. It is certain that this promulgation will im- measurably affect the strength and size of the club in years to come. In the latter part, of the year, after the organizational difficulties presented by 130 the early appearance of the College En- trance Examination Boards, and the resulting lack of time on the part of the Seniors, had been successfully overcome, a senes oi discussions upon the forthcoming presidential election took place. Several of the officers attended a scholastic press conference held by Senators Taft and Kefauver, and brought back interesting first-hand reports on these two major can- didates. The information gained through sucn reports on all the major candidates provided lively discussion periods for several meetings. Credit is due the Junior members who took part in forums and helped the Club to function smoothly under the excellent guidance of Mr. Sullivan. “I Challenge the Negative.” First Row: Goldstein, Waldstein, Spiegel, Liss, Tyler, Ruttenburg.

Through the constant efforts of Mr. Levine, whose knowledge of France has proved invaluable, and under the leadership of President Arthur Bloom and the other officers of the Club, interesting programs on phases of French culture and civilization were enjoyed. Discourses on important Frenchmen — Moliere, Voltaire, Beaumarchais, Robes- pierre, Napoleon, Hugo, and Balzac — and interesting accounts of Versailles, Chartres, the Eiffel Tower, and the French Revolu- tion were presented. Talks were given on Benjamin Franklin’s trip to France to procure aid for the American Revolution- ists, the French ancestry of Betsy Ross, and the contributions of Madame Curie and Pasteur to science. The discussion of the musicians Gounod and Saint - Saens was also appreciated. Special thanks must be given for their enthusiastic work throughout the year to 132 Paul O’Leary, James Messina, and Arthur Bloom of Class I ; to Charles Segal, Marc Richman, Morris Goldings, Thomas Hegar- ty, and Robert Marshall of Class II; and to Thomas Harrington of Class III. Le Cercle, which will hold the French Prize Pronunciation Contests as usual, is inviting the newly appointed French Con- sul General, M. Charleroux, to award the prizes. Le Cercle Frangais is also entering the French national prize Competition for the first time. Thus the two main aims of the Cercle Frangais have been admirably carried out: to promote interest in French life, manners, and customs ; and to encourage the use of oral French. The Liber Actorum joins with the student body in wishing the best of luck to next year’s officers for an equally successful ciub. “Pronounce It Nasal-Style.

OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Sergeant-at-Arms Richard Brooks Thomas Kelley George Bryant Otis Gates Martin Mintz This year’s Highway Safety Club was one of the best and most progressive in the history of the organization. Meetings, held regularly on alternate Thursdays, consisted of watching movies, listening to guest speakers from the Registry of Motor Vehicles, and studying highway safety pamphlets. The main theme of the Club was to instill in each member a sense of courtesy in driving and to point out the benefits thereof. Courtesy on the highways brings safety and security to drivers and pedestrians alike. At an early meeting, Eugene Manning, He ad of the Department of Highway Safe- ty at the Registry, was an honored guest speaker. His well-delivered talk pointed out how the accident rate influences the high insurance rate in Boston. His em- phasis on courtesy and caution coordinated well with the theme of the Club. During the following meetings, many films were shown, and inspectors from the Registry were guest speakers. The Club was also furnished with many interesting pamphlets by the Registry. 134 Before this year ends, Mr. Caffrey, fac- ulty adviser and sponsor of the Club, hopes to arrange to have the mobile testing unit of the Safety Council available to the members. This mobile unit, which visited the school for the first time last year, is furnished in order to test the mem- bers ' reaction times, steering, braking dis- tances, etc. Thus, under the able support and leadership of Brooks, Gates, and Bryant, and, with the sincere helpfulness and suc- cessful efforts of Mr. Caffrey, the Club succeeded in its planned activities. Multae gratiae go also to the faithful members for the success of the Club. “Semper Paratus.” First Row: Jacobs, O’Connor, Tyler Anderson, Liss, Barr, Zalkind, Helsmoortez, Bass, Saffer, Kent, Briansky, Gilfix, Anderson.

OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Paul O’Leary Bernard Levine Richard Savrann George Canellos At no time in the past has the Modem History Club been more active. The Club achieved unusual success in its program of giving the pupils an opportunity to famil- iarize themselves with contemporary de- velopments in the world at large. The Club, with the faithful assistance of its officers and interested members, undertook the task of bringing the baffling domestic and international problems within the un- derstanding of all. The Club thus provided an indispensable service in keeping its members abreast of current world happen- ings and their far-reaching implications. Since the meetings could be held only infrequently, because of after-school classes, speakers from the neighboring universities could not be obtained until the last few meetings. In the coverage of world affairs, therefore, boys generously contributed suggestions as to programming, and many members participated in the informal club discussions. In place of guest lecturers, panel discussions took place in which members were invited to speak on topics of current interest. Lively ques- tion periods followed each speaker. 136 A new feature introduced by the Presi- dent was a period at the beginning of each meeting devoted to a consideration of news-briefs. This innovation proved very popular, and all members eagerly contributed to the discussions. Some of the subjects considered in the meetings throughout the year were the Anglo- 1 ranian dispute, civil strife in Tunisia, the new Libyan state, Communist influences in Guatemala, General Eisen- hower’s duties, statehood for Alaska and Hawaii, the Hoover Plan, and military bases in Spain. Besides the officers, members who worked diligently in the Club’s activities were Arnold Neistadt, John Bross, Thomas Chin, Maurice Breslow, Walter McLean, Harold Scholnick, Robert Gargill, Charles Sarelis, and David Cantor. The Club’s successful year was, in no small measure, due to the constant interest, inspiration, and instruction of its faculty sponsor, Mr. Paul Pearson. “Our Forefathers.’’ First Row: Palacas, Chin, Goldberg, Savrann, O’Leary, Mr. Pearson, Levine, Canellos, Breslow, Cormack, Zola.

Once again the Aviation Club enjoyed continued success in bringing to the stu- dent body a program of activities illustrat- ing basic principles of aviation. Technical lectures were delivered by the President on cross-country pilotage an d the prob- lems involved in air navigation by dead- reckoning. In addition, the entire club participated in discussions of the simple theory of flight and various aspects of modeling. Demonstrations of the function of gasoline power plants for model air- craft were also given. A visual education program was under- taken in order to illustrate the complicated operation, performance, and importance of the airplane in the present air age. With the advent of spring, the frequent meetings were augmented by field trips and in- creased modeling activity on the part of many members. The patient and expert guidance of Mr. Bowers, the Club Adviser, was invaluable in these varied activities. 138 First Row : Dubois, Forsberg, Weiner, Minichiello, Krause, McCormick, Ostoposides, Coniarais, Glas- ses Second Row: Walsh, Baierlein, Chefitz, Sadow, Lupi, Kotelly, Gordon, Mr. Thomas, McKittrick, Tishler, Ivaden, Gorde ' t, Anderson, Barry.

With the well-attended meetings, the Club ful- filled its two-fold purpose: to foster the playing of chess and to develop teams creditably representing Latin School. As far as League competition is con- cerned, the chess team, although it was in the rebuilding stage due to the graduation last year of almost the whole first team, enjoyed a successful year, finishing the season second only to Brookline High School. The credit for the team’s success goes to the following players: Lyman, Milgram, Schegloff, Brazukas, Kogos, Davidson, Cerul, and to the alternates — Gersin, Edelstein, Orenbuch, Balboni and Berlin. 140 First Row: Suelis, Mr. Donahue, Hamlin.

Active interest was sustained in several phases of dramatic work. With the aid of the Faculty Advisers, Messrs. Donahue and McNamara, discus- sions were conducted on the literary structure of plays and the techniques of acting. The history and development of various forms of the drama were also considered. Boys interested in theatrical production gained knowledge and experience through service on the school stage-crew. By means of work back-stage, members received valuable training in scenic design, stage- lighting, set construction, and other as- pects of production work. The stage-crew included Charles Hamlin, Paul Cormack, Alan Levenson, Philip Gulesian, and Richard Finkel. “A Busy Little Man.” 141 First Row: Fingerman, Quinn.

Since the school’s curriculum does not include such training, the experience offered was invaluable. At the meetings, which were in reality after-school classes, boys learned the rudiments of art and poetry technique, in order that each might learn to appreciate a true masterpiece. Because of the mani- fold difficulties involved, little attempt was made to develop creative ability among the members, although, before the year’s end, every member had tried his hand, at least once, in producing either a poem of quality, or an artistic composition. The assistance of Mr. Julius Finn, the Faculty Adviser, was invaluable to the members and officers in developing and nurturing an interest in the arts. He truly deserves their sincere thanks. 142 First Row : Scanlon, Moore, Brenci, Kaplan, Dario.

A new club at Latin School, it offered to charter members of the Sixth Class a chance to study geo- politics and its relation to world affairs. An interesting program of events was planned by Mr. Avery, who first took charge of the Club. During the school year, movies and slides covering many phases of geography were shown. Field trips, planned and organized by the mem- bers, included a visit to the State House at Boston and a visit to the Maporium and the publishing rooms of the Christian Science Monitor Building. The Club’s success was due, not only to the active participation of its members, but also to the patience and aid of its adviser, Mr. William B. Bergen.

(jerman OFFICERS President Vice-President Treasurer Secretary Louis Fingerman Chris Palacas Sheldon Binder Frederic Smith Der Deutsche Verein of 1951-1952 finished a highly successful year under the erudite guidance of Dr. Galline. The main purpose of this club is to acquaint its members with the social and cultural back- ground of Germany and German life. The Club was honored this year in hav- ing several distinguished speakers. Dr. Erick Budde of Boston University, with the aid of slides on ancient relics, lectured on “The Influence of Anglo-Saxon Life on England.” Herr Mueller, former mana- ger of the University Bookshop of Vienna, interpreted the famous play “Faust” by Wolfgang Von Goethe. The Club was al- so fortunate in having Professor McClaine of Harvard, and John Bruckman, Presi- dent of the German Club at Harvard, discuss the German Lyric and conduct a choral group of German folksongs. The officers extend their sincere thanks to Dr. Galline for his assistance through- out the year, and to the many Juniors in whose hands lies the future manage- ment of the German Club. 144 First Row: Whelan, Lane, Leiter, Garber, Morfield, Staulo, White, Brass, Garland.

Under the able tutelage of Mr. Famiglietti, an interesting and entertaining selction of choral music was presented at several school functions. The Glee Club’s per- formances at these school activities is not, however, its only activity. Throughout the school year the members’ voices are trained in informal classes, in order that they might become skilled in group singing. The season’s activities were highlighted by the Chrismas exercises, the graduation ceremonies, and at the school assemblies. In addition, various members appeared on the annual school radio program, and in the National Honor Society revue. Par- ticularly outstanding were John Staulo and Maxwell Morfield. Thanks are due Mr. Famiglietti, who presided at the weekly meetings, for his patient and helpful advice. “More Fortissimo!” 145 First Row: Connolly, Donlan, Shea, Morante, Mr. O ' Brien, Canellos, Sarelis, Barry, Feeherry.

Once again this year, the Greek Club carried on a varied program to stimulate the interest of its members in Greek life, language, and customs. Among the many topics discussed at the meetings were “Greek Etymology and Word Derivation”, “Greek Numerals”, “Life at Ancient Athens”, and “Greek Slaves.” Prominent among the members were Barry, Freedman, Nielsen, Mawhinney, Tamis, and Tingus, all of whom were ap- pointed to the Program Committee. Under the guidance of Mr. O’Brien and the capa- ble leadership of President Morante, mem- bership reached new heights, and continued success in the future is assured. 146 ■First Row.

Under the guidance of Mr. Miller, the Club’s enthusiastic sponsor, and Presi- dent Arthur Bloom, the bi-monthy meet- ings afforded much information of the culture, customs, and language of the ancient inhabitants of Latium and Rome. Talks were given by the members of the Club on such topics as “The Business Life of Rome,” “Excerpts from Plutarch’s Lives,” “Gaius Julius Caesar,” “The Founding of Rome by Romulus and Remus,” and “Roman Aqueducts. A brief informal discussion was held after each talk, and the members had the opportunity to ask questions or add bits of information. Thanks must be extended to the officers of the Club for their excellent work and to those Seniors and Juniors who took an “A Spondaic Verse.” 147 First Row. Garber, Norris, Donlan, Leiter.

The Literary Club is no exception. Its members are interested in reading and “The Stag at Eve . . .” criticism, by which means they hope to gain a better understanding and apprecia- tion of their mother tongue and great books. In this regard, the Literary Club was fortunate in having as its leader Philip Shakir, who tried to inspire members with a genuine interest in literary matters. He delivered several talks, notably those on “John Marquand” and “The Literary Rise of Islam.” President Shakir was ably assisted by Vice-President Bernard Levine, who in his lecture traced the development of the epic. Other outstanding talks were Richman’s “Booth Tarkington,” Nielsen’s “Charles Lamb,” and Langley’s “Intri- cacies of Book Collecting.” Alberetti, Bethoney, Maloof, and Paterna also con- tributed greatly to club activities. Echoing the sentiments of many English teachers, the Club goes on record as urging all students to read and read, for this is the only means of acquiring an extensive vocabulary and basic powers of expres sion, both in speech and in writing. Not enough thanks can be given to Dr. Callanan, who displayed unparalleled patience in the conduct of the crowded meetings. 148 First Row : Carr, Gallivan, O’Rourke, McCarty, Yannoni.

Informative lectures were given by the members on the theory and varied uses of the indispensable “slip-stick”. Every member, whether of Class I or Class II, had an opportunity to participate in the activities of the meetings and to help or be helped by the other members. Boys in Class I soon found that the instruction given at the meeting was an invaluable aid in their studies. In a large measure, the success of the club is due to Mr. Peter Kozodoy, Faculty Adviser of the group, whose helpful sug- gestions and lucid explanations were a constant source of knowledge. By the end of the year it is hoped that every member will have become proficient in the mani- fold uses of the most common tool of science, the slide rule. “tt=3.1415926535” 149 First Row: Feller, Basile, Walsh, Forgione.

OFFICERS Richard Zeytoonjian Robert Donahue Albert Forgione The Meteorology Club was founded two years ago, under the organizing influence of Richard Zeytoonjian and the guidance of Faculty Adviser Mr. Hechinger. Its principal aim is to acquaint interested students with the “how” and the “why” of the weather. In order to create interest in this sub- ject, simplified explanations of the func- tions of weather forecasting were given by President Zeytoonjian and the other officers. To stimulate further interest in meteorology the Club presented motion pictures on the practical applications of weather-forecasting. In the future, the Clubs’ plans include an ever-widening sphere of interest in the many phases of meteorology, from the element of instrument reading to the more complex matter of long-range forecasting. It is hoped that the members will not only become well versed in the study of meteorology but also that some of their number will develop vocational interests in this important field. 150 First Row : Pichulo, Iacuzio, Wigman, Mazzuchelli, Lieberman, Marolda, Dong, Lebow.

Under the able guidance of Messrs. McMorrow and Zoll, informal discussions among the members were held, at which several facets of model-building, as well as important features of models brought in by members, were covered.

In a lighter vein, Rhapsody in Blue, by Gersh- win, was presented. The officers and members wish to express their sincere appreciation of the time and effort Mr. Finn, the faculty sponsor, has so willingly contributed.

The en- tire program involves about ninety boys, who are led by student officers and the faculty adviser, Mr. Sullivan. The Radio Club, in conjunction with the Morse Code Club, has built a program around the training of prospective radio amateurs. As the amateur radio license examination is composed of both code and radio theory tests the daily classes con- ducted by the Club are also of two types. Boys are accepted and held as long as they are able to pass the periodic compe- titive examinations. A boy is allowed to advance as fast as his ability permits. After a boy is able to receive Morse Code at fifteen words per minute (faster than the amateur license examination requires, and about the U.S.N.’s general operating speed) he is transferred to the radio theory group. The climax of the course is the F.C.C. examinations. Upon passing this final examination and receiving his call letters, the boy may either become an instructor or join the 153 OB !

The organization, through the generosity and loyalty of its members, contributed enough money to purchase a chest con- taining articles worth more than one hun- dred dollars fr om the Boston Chapter of the Red Cross. The contents of the chest, which were such things as medicine and first-aid equipment, were shipped abroad to aid disaster victims. The eagerness and interest with which the members worked toward their goal, and the full-hearted support the officers and advisers tendered them, is sincerely appreciated. After the policy for this year’s Red Cross Club was established, the mem- bers all contributed their time and money in heartening quantities. Under the helpful guidance of Mr. Barry, the Club sponsor, the organization will continue to flourish and to aid those who are in need. 154 First Hour. Pearlman, Shulman, Shapiro, Henry, Kessler.

Through re- ports and discussions, the officers and more active members have tried to encourage good sportsmanship and skill in this com- petitive sport. Talks covered sailing, rac- ing rules, navigation, nomenclature of boats, and racing tactics. Although limited, at present, to class- room discussions, the Sailing Club looks forward to eventually representing the school in inter-school competition in this field of athletics. Until then, the Club will endeavor to teach the members the rudi- ments of this sport. Thanks are due Mr. Pheeney, the faculty sponsor, under whose leadership the Club has enjoyed great success. It is hoped that in the years to come, this initial success will be greatly expanded. “This is Gaff Rigged.” 155 First Row: ODrnald. Goldstein, Taylor, Tyler, Cohen, Fox, Rosenthal.

Among the most prom- inent of the features which were a part of every meeting were stamp auctions, quiz- zes, talks, and an extensive trading program. Talks were delivered throughout the year on important philatelic subjects, such as “First-Day Covers”, “Pre-Cancels”, “Rare Stamps”, and kindred subjects. These were found to be extremely interest- ing and informative to the less experienced collectors who made up the bulk of the membership. The members of the Club are grateful to Mr. Levine and Mr. McGuffin for their efforts to make the Stamp Club the success that it is. Mr. McGuffin especially, as Faculty Adviser, deserves credit for the time and patience which he spent in his capacity. “Some Rare Items.” 157 Wuilcaf Or, aanization6 As always, musical activity played a prominent role in Latin School life. The traditional success of all three of the School’s musical organizations was contin- ued. The Band, for their initial performance, put on a colorful exhibition of pageantry at the Latin-English football game. In addition to performing at various school assemblies, the Band climaxed the year’s activities at the annual Prize Drill Exer- cises and in the Parade. Mr. Fortunato Sordillo and Captains Walter McLean and Morris Dratch are to be complimented for the excellent showing of the Band. The Drum and Bugle Corps, with Mr. Joseph Donovan as leader, performed its traditional function with cre dit on the day of the competitive Schoolboy Parade, when it ably defended its last year’s title as “best schoolboy Drum and Bugle Corps.” In addition to the above mentioned groups, the School maintains an Orchestra for those boys interested in classical mus- ic and symphonic instruments. To Mr. Joseph Trongone goes the credit for the splendid performance of this organization, many of whose members once again were selected for the All-Boston High School Symphony Orchestra. 158 2 , rum an J JEN LEE Uptown its the HAND LAUNDRY Huntington -- 55 Alleys WORLD’S LARGEST Finest Anywhere Next to Symphony Hall 981 ELUE HILL AVENUE DORCH lG i ER, MASS.
