I Liber Actorum 1968 Boston Latin School Boston, Massachusetts ADVISERS EDITORSIN-CHIEF Mr. Leo Casey Mr. Perry Jameson Thomas Connolly Cornelius Doherty Dedication What has rarely, if ever, been acknotvledged is the debt soc- iety oives to its teachers. Not only must the body politic depend on them for the imparting of the linguistic skills necessary for the transmission of basic knowledge. It must also entrust them ivith indoctrination of ideas essential to survival. For three-hundred thirty-three year’s, the Boston Latin School has survived and produced much of the leadership of its democratic society. The role of the school’s instructors in this survival and imparting of skills and ideas has been a major factor in the institu- tion’s continuity of excellence. Typical, causal, of this excellence is the devotion of those men who serve as masters in the Latin School. It is recognition of this unselfish service that this LIBER ACT- ORUM is dedicated to one teacher whose career at the school was characteristic of the spirit of all those men who have rendered similar unstinting service to the Boston Latin School and the ideals of education. Dr. Wilfred L. O Leary, 25 Headmaster . . . Administration, Perspicacity, And Guts. GENTLEMEN: Nicholas Murray Butler, late Presi- dent of Columbia University, once said that “Education truly conceived is spir- itual growth toward intellectual and moral perfection, and is not an artificial process to be carried on according to mechanical formulas to a purely mater- ial end.” There are utilities higher and utilities lower, and if a school in its zeal to fit the youth for self-support were to neglect to lay the foundation for that higher intellectual and spir- itual life which constitutes humanity’s full stature, it would sacrifice the high- er utilities to the lower. Fortunately the Class of 1968, along with the legions of past graduates, has received a training in the Humanities based on “spiritual growth toward in- tellectual and moral perfection.” Be- cause of this education, you are for- tified with knowledge and the know- why which will enable you to live the good life. Like the Latin School men of the past, you will be able to stand up and be counted upon to do your duty no matter what the cost. Let the cause be just, you will be its defender, there- by inspiring those of lesser moral fiber. You will be leaders in our society of tomorrow, never forgetting the ex- ample of the host of leaders whose names adorned our hallowed hall. The latter excelled in many fields of end- eavor but they all had one thing in common — a resolute determination to do their duty and excel in the area of talents with which their Creator so generously endowed them. Plato tells us, “For a man to conquer himself is the first and best of all victories.” The long hard road through the Latin School which you have traversed proves the Philosopher’s statement. You have done this by ac- quiring SELF-DISCIPLINE, the sine- qua-non for success in life. You have the Humanities to thank for that price- less virtue. Be never unmindful of the debt you owe your Masters, parents, and the good people of the City of Boston who made it possible for you to enjoy the privilege of attending this venerable institution. Be loyal to B.L.S., aid her in every way, make her cause your cause. Make it a goal to help future Latin School boys to achieve a college education by being a generous donor to the Scholarship Funds. Above all heed the admonition of Horace, “Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem — .” Albert J. VanSteenbergen Assistant Headmaster 15 PRAECEP PRAECEPTORES Let him adopt a parental attitude, be strict but not austere. Let his discourses turn on what is honorable. He must be of great in- dustry, his demands not extravagant, and avoid sarcasm and abuse towards his pupils. — Quintilian on the duties of the teacher Such are the masters of the Latin School.

However, the success of the school can only be measured by the successes of its students. The pupils, V selected from every economic, religious, and ethnic gi’oup annually provide the raw material from which the Latin School legend is made. The Officers of The Class PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE CLASS COMMITTEE Today, let us begin our lives anev;, for we are standing on the threshold of a new frontier. As our careers at Latin School have now come to a close, let us continue to pursue our endeavors with the same hopes and ambitions which have led us through the Latin School. Let us resolve to conduct ourselves in a manner befitting Latin School Graduates. Let us pledge to be forever willing to extend our hands to those who need help and let us be forever willing to serve our society and those around us to the best of our ability in the sense that may be called true men. All the knowledge gained at the Boston Latin School is the basis for our pursuits. With the encouragement of the faculty we have acquired the learning and wisdom to pre- pare us for college and adult life, but equally important, we have learned that which cannot be found in books; we have learned the true meaning of friendship. We have made friends wdth many boys from different ethnic backgrounds and religious beliefs. On the athletic field and in the classroom we have become endeared to each other, content to give more than we might receive in return. Let us always keep this spirit of friendship which we have ex- perienced at the Latin School embedded in our minds and let us never consider ourselves capable of outgrowing this spirit. Although we may feel tinges of regret about leaving this school w ' hich has been an integral part of our lives for the past four or six years, we must look forward to what lies ahead of us. The future holds many obstacles that we must challenge with the determination and desire which we have gained here at the Latin School. We are prepared to meet these challenges because we have formed characteristic, social, moral, and educational sets of values during our high school years, the most formative and impressionable years of our lives. Whether we are successful in our vocation or not, there is one thing we must keep in mind: we must obey our consciences and do what is right and morally justified, regardless of the consequences and we must always remem- ber, “This above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.” Gentlemen, I congratulate you on your graduation and wish you success and happiness in the future. DENNIS JAMES KEARNEY William Fitzsimmons Daniel Chin Vincent DiCara Joseph Ventresca Salvatore Vinci Chairman 38 0 1968 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Dennis Kearney President Richard Fournier Vice-President Louis Morgante Secretary Alan Kuritsky Treasurer 39 Primi Perferre Periculum The Class of 1968, the first to take the entrance exam, was confident as it filed into the auditorium on that sunny September morning. Little did its members know that within their careers at the La- tin School two thirds of them would fall victim to that voracious “tunnel under the Ave.” After a week of filling out program cards during extended homeroom periods, the four hundred “six- ies” met new “companions” — English, U. S. His- tory, Geography, Mathematics, General Science. But perhaps the most formidable subject was Latin; Ritchie’s First Steps seemed to contradict every rule of English grammar and caused more casualties among the “sixie” class than any other course. Curious, as all “sixies” are, the Class of ’68 began to explore the building to find out if there really was a fourth floor swimming pool and started to investi- gate the extracurricular activities which the Latin School offered them. In this first year there were the Radio, Current Events, Model Railroad and Debating clubs; later, there would be the Key Club, the N.H.S. and varsity athletics. During this same first year there were the last N.H.S. Revue, the Dramatic Society’s The Gentle- men from Athens and, of course, the annual Festival of Music, that year conducted by Arthur Fieldler of the Boston Pops. The annual Sportsman’s Night featured Celtic star Sam Jones. Towards the end of the academic year, those who were fortunate enough to be preparing for Class V realized, perhaps for the first time, just how many of their classmates were now at local junior high schools. Some took a lesson from the mistakes of others and fortified themselves for the year ahead through summer study and reading, strongly reas- suring themselves that it wouldn’t happen to them. The Class of 1968 was one step closer to its goal. Its members had earned the right to hiss the “sixies” and proudly inform everyone that they w ' ere now “fivesies.” They had survived a crucial year and were, for the most part, confident about the remain- ing five years. But for those who were too confident there was the salmon-pink sign out card and that last day when they returned their books and left. Coach Patten Sixie Guidance 40 Mr. Famiglietti Miss Taylor • • Superfuerant Difficile Tempus . For those remaining, Class V was a carbon copy of Class VI. There were the same subjects to be studied; there was the same condescending treat- ment by “foursies” and “threesies”. There were some differences, however; everything seemed to be just a bit harder. Perhaps the biggest difference for those who had Mr. Sullivan, was English. From the first class in September, until the last in June, life in 222 was Readers’ Digest, fill in the blanks, com- positions, and tape recorded grammar tests. Just as they wer e getting used to the increased amount of work expected of them. Thanksgiving was upon the “Fivesies”. What true Latin School boy can study with Christmas only a month away? However, this year thoughts of turkey and “The Game” were overshadowed by the tragic assassina- tion of President John F. Kennedy. After the holiday season. Class V was called to the hall and informed that by April each boy would have to choose either French or German as the foreign language he would pursue for the next three or four years. This one decision broke up many of the friendships of the two preceding years. After the long stretch of school days during Jan- uary, Spring, baseball, and finally promotion day came. Then too, the too short summer was gone, the rest was ended and the Class of 1968 was the Freshman, or “foursie” class at B.L.S. When the “A” division returned to B.L.S. to start its first year of high school, it was joined by the “B” boys, 200 students from the district schools. The only difference between these two groups was the bittersweet experience of two years at the La- tin School. This year Ancient History, Civics, Algebra, a modern language, and a different kind of gym were added to the curriculum. The course in history fit in well with the Latin account of Caesar’s Gallic exploits which the “foursies” were translating from the original Latin. Civics taught how the nation and Commonwealth are run. Meanwhile, on the third floor, the first taste of that stumbling block, alge- bra, indicated that this language of science did not follow the rules of most other languages. In modern language class, the term “idiomatic usage” was employed to explain a multitude of errors. Down- Turkey Day Messrs.

Class IV marked the beginning of the New Bos- ton’s towering skyline as the Prudential Tower’s ascent made Boston the proud possessor of the tall- est building outside of New York City. There was also a measure of sadness in the mem- ory of Class IV. That year the Latin School lost two of its most devoted servants. Early in the year, Mr. Max Levine who had been connected with the school for sixty years, first as a student, then as a master, department head, and finally as Secretary of the Alumni Association, passed away. His loyalty to the spirit of the Latin School had earned him the name “Mr. Chips.’’ Later, during the Christmas vacation. Colonel Kelly died, and with him a century and a half of military training at the Latin School. Colonel Kelly left behind an undying tradition of excellence and remains a source of inspiration to all who came in contact with him. Mr. Max Levine The most important part of Class IV was the week during which each student had to choose his “major” for the next two years. Among the choices were history, Greek, physics, and Advanced Math. It was a difficult decision to make, one which some would regret. After the choices were made, the Class of 1968 awaited the summer, the beginning of Class III, and the results of those decisions. When the Class of 1968 returned to the Latin School in the Fall of 1965 as sophomores, its mem- bers faced new studies in history, language, or Science. Some found the electives of the past year regrettable. As the year progressed, the famed “Boards” began to make an impression on the new sophomores. The N.E.D.T. was this year’s prelude to the C.E.E.B. (S.A.T., ACH., and Writing Sample) and N.M.S.Q.T. which would come in later classes. Class III was the year of European History with Mr. Powers (I’m a tiger!) and Mr. Leary (“I don’t care, I just don’t care.”), of Latin with Mr. Zanor ( ... amazing . . . the marks don’t lie!), of math Mr. Fontaine M.D Mr. Conrad Jameson , . . Collegium Tiebat Propius . . . with equilateral, isoscles, and congruent triangles with Mr. Hewes or Mr. Wellings, of ten points extra credit with Mr. McNamara, of projector-taught chemistry with Mr. Higgins, of French with Mr. Dio Dato or German with Mr. Fox, and, of course, health with various members of the “phys-ed” department. The subtle changes that Dr. O’Leary had initiated since he became Headmaster became more noticeable to the student body this year. The regulation that seemed to engender the most controversy among the students wasn’t at all distasteful. This year “sack coats’’ even improved the atmosphere of the school. Class HI was a solidifying year. For those who completed this year, there was renewed hope of graduation; for those who didn’t, there was that place across the Avenue. Spring faded into Summer ; Class HI became Class II, the roughest year at B.L.S. The countdown was nearly over now. College was around the corner now, but the juniors at Latin School would have to redouble their ef- forts in the more difficult courses, English, Math, Science if they were to get around that corner. This year there would be S.A.T.s, N.M.S.Q.T.s, (which somehow got lost this year, he said with a bow). and other C.E.E.B.s. There would be Mr. Johnson’s K.D.s to cope with, not to mention the famed, ven- erable, and omnipotent JuJu. Mr. Landrigan would assign those magnificant research papers and lengthly lessons from Manter Hall, that pancea for all English ills. Class II first sighted that rare bir d, the “mid-year rank”, and the May boards, and the further renova- tion of the school. Fluorescent lighting was installed on the first floor, a new guidance suite, and a head- master’s office were built while completely new Bio- logy labs were constructed. There was now one year left for the Class of 1968 at the Latin School. It would be a year of anticipa- tion, anxiety and accomplishment; this would be a year of hope and frustration when the final experi- ences and lessons of a Latin School career would occur. Just before Summer vacation at the end of the junior year, the Class of 1968 elected its class of- ficers. The President of the Class of 1968 was Den- nis Kearney; the Vice-President, Richard Fournier; the Secretary, Louis Morgante; and the Treasurer, Doc Mac Headmaster O’Leary Mr. O’Callahan Mr. Young Dr. Sid Rosenthal 43 . . . Nimium Facere, Minimum Tempusque Alan Kuritsky. William Fitzimmons, Danny Chin, Vincent DiCara, Joseph Ventresca, and Salvatore Vinci were elected to the Class Committee. And so, when September, 1967 arrived, and with it the senior year, one of the most hectic years of our lives began. There always seemed to be too many things to do and too little time to do them. There were too many papers to write, too many meetings to attend, and too much money to spend on exams, applications, etc. The big question was, of course, what to do about college. Where to apply, when to apply, and so many other questions would not be answered until April. So many months of waiting lay ahead. This waiting was the true torture of the senior year. After six years of work, it was time to wait ; little more could be done. After Christmas vacation “Senior Slump” began. It was a time to relax and enjoy the last minute leisure of being a senior. During the last six years many memories had accumulated. B.L.S. had defeated English three times on the football field and had been City Cham- pions once. The basketball team had been in the Tech Tourney once. Outside the school, the Red Sox delighted everyone by capturing the American League pennant, even as the members of the Class of 1968 were filling out their first college applica- tions. During those six years, the Class of 1968 had seen both physical change in the Latin School build- ing and a different kind of change in the people in the school. The first class to take the entrance examinations was about to graduate. This class had “gotten through” with fewer casualties than the other s before it and had set new records. Latin School men had done greater things in and out of the school. Latin School had assumed leader- ship and excelled athletically, scholastically, and extracurricularly. They had proven that they had grasped the meaning of Latin School spirit and that they were fit to bear the traditions and reputation of the school. As the year slipped away, Class Day, The Fare- well Prom, and Graduation, the day which marked the end of six years of competition and heralded the beginning of the lifetime career of another class of Latin School men, had come and had passed away. Miss Paula Patnyn Mr. Aaron Gordon Coach Smith Mr. Van The Liber Actorum Introduces THE CLASS OF 1968 The theme of the Latin School must be continuity coupled with ex- cellence. Each year this school produces another group of young men who will assume the role of leadership in the community and the world. These young men are the products of vigorous experience that is derived from rigorous education in a microcosm of society. For, in- herent in the Latin School are the same qualities that must be coped with in the outside world. The same competition, sense of tradition, and fellowship are in evidence here. The experiences within the four walls of the Latin School range from achievement to failure, from a sense of accomplishment to frus- tration. But these are the impressions that serve as a preparation for college at first, and ultimately for conducting and success in the re- maining years of life. The members of the Class of 1968 are the bene- ficiaries of the experience known as the Latin School Education. Now, they leave the Alma Mater to apply this knowledge, to utilize the tools which this education has afforded them.

Place: Purple camp (students) Enter: General Wolfgang Faletra and chiefs of staff. In the footsteeps of these men follows Dennis Kearney, saddle-boy and shoeshine-man extraordinaire. G.W.F. I wish to impress on you the need for calmness in this most crucial time in the history of the 101st. We must fight bravely so that the grandeur of our deeds will forever remain inscribed on the lavatory walls. Prepare to ride, the time for battle is at hand! Where’s my horse ? Karrrneyyy ! ! ! D.K. Yes sir, on the double sir. (G.W.F. mounts and the troops ride off to battle) Place: White camp (teachers) Enter: General Publius Fuddy, followed by chiefs of staff Spike Keiran, J.B. Specific Landrigan, Punchy Pete Waldron, Carmen Vara and Guy Beninati. G.P.F. The Flash Cards say VICTORY for the White Army. J.B.L. Here, here ... on what basis do you substantiate your opinion? Give examples from your reading, and, most of all, BE SPECIFIC Pete. What, what . . . what, what ? Guv. I refuse to move from this spot ! G.P.F. Why? Guy. Because my uniform clashes with my horse ! Place: Battlefield. Enter: The two armies Festerator Primus Maximus Solus. I can ream whilst I smile. (Tempers flare and both sides seem eager for battle. At this point, however, there appears on the horizon one Joe Spina, bedecked completely in white and astride a white stallion.) G.P.F. Identify yourself. P. Joe. I’m Prince Joe and I have come to stop this un- civil war! For six years (and in some cases more), to- gether we have labored toward one end: EDUCATION. We students should be gi’eatly indebted to our teachers for the unfailing perseverance they showed us during our Latin School careers. Our masters succeeded in molding the minds and characters of their students. For their devotion we should thank them.

CLYDE: By the way, boys, did any of you read the article on six foot bull frogs in this week’s New York Times Magazine (holds it up). It would make a good oral topic for one of you (slurpingly on a cough drop). (C. W. flops his fat foot on the street and stops the car. Bonnie, Clyde, Buck, and Blanche get out and go into the Bank of San Luis Rey. Clyde kicks in window labelled “President Mc- Queeney, Private” and they enter the office. BONNIE: This is a stick-up! (dative of armed robbery. What would you use in prose ? ) (McQueeney nearly chokes on his glass of citrus fruit-punch and jumps (?) up in panic.) P.M.C.: You can’t do this. I carry a lot of weight in this com- munity. BONNIE: He is getting in my hair. (Holds it up) (Buck ties him up with a roll of Leonard Bernstein negatives. Blanche screams.) Blanche: Skip the pH, let’s get out of here. (They enter the bank.) Clyde: This is a stick-up! (Wearing bank guard uniform with swasher armband.) Bankguard Meagher: What! ? Clyde: Look it up in the dictionary! Do you know that I once saw Felix Frankfurter hold up all the candy counters from Park St. to Harvard, oh, it must have been, oh 1923 or 1924 or 1706 well anyway boys, oh I can’t tell you. Buck: (to by-stander Smith who is filling the bags with money) Look are you stupid or something? Just put the money in here. It doesn’t take a high IQ. Smith: Now I don’t object to bank robbery that is responsible, but when it gets down to people just running around and robbing banks just for the fun of it . . . Bon nie Miller: I hear screaming. Clyde: Squeeky from the diaphram. Blanche: Shut up, shut up, shut up. (Screams) If I hear you talk again you’ll write it in Russian. (As they back out bank guard O’Keefe grabs his M-16.) O’Keefe: Lousy, rotten, bleeding heart liberals, T.V.A. sup- porters. How would you feel if your mother were a bank guard? (Bonnie shoots him. Blanche screams.) Creeping Socialists! Black power advocates! Hippies! Welfare-Staters! (Dies.) As the car speeds off, the intercom in the bank says, “Would Richard Clarke please come to the main office.” Heard in the distance, a verb and a pronoun.

Among this motley crew are two types of men; existing beside the scholars is that rare breed of Latin School boy who is suffering from that highly contagious disease, “senioritis.” This disease, the result of four to eight years of moderate faking, angling and lazing about, is, in its final stages, a scourge to seniors, subjecting them to not so moderate faking, angling, and lazing about. What is the prognosis, doctor, for these young men of 118? Will P. J. Flynn ever end his strike against Gillette? Will Tuminsky, in point of fact, become an admiral ... in our Navy ? Will Arena ever get his hair back to its natural color? Will White, Carlton or Selby eventually find a way to break 800 on the Boards? Will Restuccia ever find a boy for Mary? Will Donahue, Hackett and Vinci be accepted to Who U. at Slobovia? Will Mancini ever show up anywhere for two days in a row? Will anyone ever, discover where Pleau goes during home room? Will Fandel continue to elude Mr. McCabe ? Will Hay ever get off the “stuff”? Will Morrissey ever stay awake for a whole History period ? And finally, will Mr. Powers ever repeat himself?

And over there are our architects: Morrissey, Nan- nery, and DiSilvestro, building our sandcastle under the able leadership of chief engineer, John Vellotti and his golden slide rule. Here come Forte and Pupi taking the latest zap count. “Who’s ahead Tom?’’ “Rocky by two zaps, who else ?” Off in the distance, Vito Spinello is poppin’ wheelies on his tough 605 Scrambler Schwynn tricycle. Oooh ! Magnificent John Stabers is bangin’ five on the big wave. What a specimen ! There’s “Jeeves” Keenan, humblv bringing in John Varitimos’ camera on his silver platter. John is here to take pictures of our candidate for “Playboy of the month”, Richie Squillante. Darn that Johnny Henderson. The big bully is kicking sand in Kev Stewart’s face. Joey Leonard is sitting in the sand, patiently waiting for the ocean to freeze over so he can play hockey. Sitting beside him is Smitty singing “All I Want For Christmas Is My New Tooth”. Duh ! Look at Carl Roland ! He runs so fast across the water that his feet don’t even get wet. Here’s Roy Gannon stumbling into the picture. He’s doing the Cherry Flip. Over there, they’re making Ed Zalitis contribute to the High Kahuna’s new pad. Good old Ed will never give in. “Animal” Nortwich Is wading in the water, trying to find out what makes salt water salty. So, as we bid adieu to Big Tom Beach, we see George Mastabv riding slowly into the sunset on his trusty camel, Clyde. Hi-ho Arab.

H.R. 130 TO sms WITH LOVE For the past few years, we have impatiently anticipa- ted the moment when we would join the long list of Boston Latin School alumni. Yet, now that that time has arrived, we realize that it will be extremely diffi- cult to depart without feeling a certain amount of sorrow. The Latin School has introduced us to the straightest, though not the smoothest, path to success. For this, we will be perpetually indebted to our school and our mas- ters. Nevertheless, we feel it is only fitting to show our appreciation by offering a few words of assurance to those who have been particularly helpful. To Mr. Locke — We can prove beyond a doubt that, contrary to Fritz’s theory, the “Phantom” was really Rich Fournier. We can also testify that Greg King was duly “creamed” for his “persistant disorder”. However, our most important resolution was that, by a vote of 26-0 we selected our homeroom master as “the nicest guy” at BLS. To Mr. Vara — We can honestly say that Gaffney sat on it for a while and still didn’t get it! However, Mc- Carthy and Mucci w ere even more puzzled by the ques- tion: “What does he wear when he gets dressed up”? To Mr. Salvucci — We must admit that Stone was a chronic cheater! (How else could he do so well?) To Mr. Miller — We are sorry to say that Boyle and Barron plan to go to the same college in order to further their education. (Don’t be too surprised if Kevin does just as well as Stanley!) To Mr. Smith — Our assurance that Haggerty was never reallv asleep, he just preferred to rest his eyes. To Mr. Gordon — A word of advice: In the future, persuade your classes to supply you with gum drops while you pick up the tab for all those bookcovers! To our Guidance Counsellors — Our gratitude for per- forming several minor miracles and for performing many major ones too. To all — Our sincere thanks ! — Jeffrey John Jay Jarvis James H. Locke 26 Sycamore Road, South Weymouth Graduate of Boston College. Hobbies: Reading, sports. H.R. 135 A genie billows out of the intercom.

Latin fielded a small, experienced team of tough competitors, led by co-captains Bill Fitzsimmons and Lincoln Pope, who were both selected to the All-Citv and All-Conference teams. Commendation must also be given to Jay Porter, Peter Bynoe, John Walsh, and John O’Donovan for their determined and consistent play throughout the season. The team would like to thank Coaches Smith, Sanford, and Hawley, who proved that football builds character by molding such dedicated and determined players. stone fires Porter breaks the game wide open LATIN VS. ENGLISH On Thanksgiving morning, Latin was seeking its third victory against English in the last four years. Our hopes for a win in THE game of the year w ' ere soon dampened when it became apparent that the terrible playing conditions would hamper our faster team considerably more than the heavier English team. By game time a steady rain had drenched the turf and, although Latin marched up and down the field, several bad breaks on the slippery field held the game to a scoreless tie at the end of the first half. In the third quarter, Latin broke the game wide open with two quick scores. Jay Porter gathered in an English punt on his own twenty-two yard line, cut to the right behind fine blocking, and ran unscathed seventy-eight yards for the touchdown. Next time Latin received the ball. Line Pope burst off right tackle, stepped over one would-be tackier, faked two more out of their cleats, and sped fifty- four yards to the end zone. Latin held on to its 14-0 lead to shut out English for the first time in eleven years. Congratulations are extended to Coach Smith, as well as to Line Pope and Jay Porter, the two out- standing players of the game, Pete Bynoe, the Most Valuable Player, and Bill Fitzsimmons, John Walsh, John O’Donovan. Dave Gettleman, Joe Costello, and Bill Stone for their fine play. Improved Season For “Coach Of Connolly lights the lamp McAuliffe moves it out. Trade .... THE RECORD ....5 B.C.

Bright spots in an otherwise gloomy season were the outstanding performances of Tom Rowan in the nets, and the selection of Steve Con- nolly, Tom Rowan, and John Walsh to the All-City Team. The starting six consisted of Tom Rowan as goalie, John Walsh and Bob DePauw on defense. Captain Paul Mc- Auliffe and Kev Stewart on the wings, and Steve Connolly at center. The “mite-line” of Tom Cohan, Steve Philpott, and Bob Irgens, plus defense- man and captain-elect Bob DePauw’ will provide a sound nucleus for next year’s team.

This year’s swimming team had an extremely successful season. The team record was quite impressive (10 wins, 5 losses). Outstanding among the seniors was co-captain Peter Fritz who, throughout the year, displayed top-notch diving per- formances, capping the season with a first in the Eastern Massachusetts Diving Competition and a third in the New England meet at Portland, Maine. Other seniors who helped make this season a successful one were Frank Kenney, Dave McDonnell, Steve Selby, and co-captain Dave Weber. Special recognition should be given to John Ward, a junior, who established school records in the 100 yard breaststroke and the 200 yard individual medley and who also placed first in the breaststroke at the East- ern Massachusetts Meet. The entire team wishes to express its thanks to Mr. Powers for his time and effort, as well as for the guidance he has given each member of the squad.

The praise-worthy performances of some underclassmen brightened a not too impressive season. In spite of the injuries and inexperience, the team placed a close third in both the City and the Regimental Meets. The young, spirited team cannot help but to place highly in state-wide competition next year. All but two of the team’s top ten will be returning next season. The varsity runners who were consistent placers were Captain Rich Fournier, Clyde Doran, Larry Grey, Mike Pearson, John Dugan, Steve Stanislawzyk, Mike Farrell, and Joe Bonica.

Although handicapped by injuries to key per- sonnel and the lack of experience of several new players, the soccer team posted a 2-3-1 season. For Captains Yee and Lauterbach it was a re- building season in which seven positions vacated by last year’s seniors had to be filled. Good play on the front line came from Sullivan, Yee, Eng, Wong, and Lee, while the halfback line, con- sisting of Rossi, Lauterbach, and McGurn added to the offensive punch. Groden, Sherman, and John Wong comprised the fullbacks who were the work horses of the team. Favorito and Fine- berg alternate as goalie to round out the lineup. The soccer team wishes to extend its thanks to Colonel Chiarini and Mr. Leo Casey for their assistance throughout the season.

It went that way. Defending Champs Powered by six returning lettermen, last year’s team swept the Massachusetts Coast League off its feet, upset- ting the pre-season favorite, North Quincy, in route to Latin’s first undefeated championship in history. Latin continued its Cinderella role, upsetting a strong Catholic Memorial team in the quarter-finals of the State Tourna- ment before running into the powerhouse Brookline team. All this was done with four of the six starting juniors. This year Co-Captains Mike Feehily and Rich Kontos, the number one team, and returning starters Tom Faletra and Rich Gillooly, in the number two spot, will defend La- tin’s championship. Coach Flynn boasts the strongest four- some, not only in the Teague, but also in the state. The team hopes to prove this with the State Championship.

A city championship is definitely within reach ; with a little hustle and determination, Latin should once again nail down the title. Coach’s conference Hard Work Pays Off This year proved to be one of the best in recent history for the Crew Team. It not only finished second in the City League, but also set a new course record, bettering the old one by nearly forty sec- onds. The crew of the first boat, Stabers, Heos, Aggripino, Anastas, Sinkevich, Abraham, Murray, Bechis, and Coxswain Rich Squilante, worked hard under the watchful eyes of Coach Vara. The effort proved worthwhile when Latin won the last race of the season. The prediction for the coming season finds Latin becoming the new “champs of the Charles.” First Boat On the Charles 107 RDINATIONES CHOLASTICAE ORDINATIONES SCHOLASTICAE The reputation of the Latin School does not rest solely on the triumphs of its alumni. Much credit belongs to those boys who, by their skill in journalism, forensics, and music, have advanced the name of the Latin School in inter-scholastic competition. For their time and effort we thank them. 109 The boss Sweeping across your literary vista comes the story no one dared to tell before. For the first time, the amaz- ing truth behind the compilation of the 1968 Liber Actorum can be re- vealed. L. sits behind the highly polished mahogany desk, his face mirrored in the glossy surface, his pipe sending ringlets of smoke tumbling to the ceil- ing and the four walls. Then the pipe is clenched between his 83 front teeth as he commands in a callous, dispas- sionate voice, “Do it or I’ll give ya’ a punch in the eye !” This then was the beginning of a year of literary crusade, a year of con- frontation with such forces of evil as: the recalcitrant Dutchman, the vanish- ing Business Staff, the animated swivel-chair, the strangling typewriter ribbon and, their many cohorts of copy- sheets gone wrong. Yet, the pilgrimage was a success. For, the hard-working yearbook staff found the Holy Grail alive and well at the Columbia Scholastic Press Con- ference in New York City. Finally, the most authoritative doc- ument tracing and explaining the ex- otic accomplishments of that secret task force appears. And here it is, the one bullet theory of the 1968 Liber Actorum.

DRAMATIC SOCIETY The Theatre Company of the Boston Latin School presented its off-Broadway version of Brother Orchid for the 1968 theater season. The production premiered its three-day run to a sell out matinee on Wednes- day, May 10. Goodness prevailed! The good-guy monks (Bill McQueeney, Dave McEttrick, George Sharpe, and Jeff Jarvis) defeated the bad-guy gangsters (Line Pope, Jay Porter, Emilio Favorito, Howie Schwartz, and Dave Pleau) in a battle to control the lucrative flower market ; of course, the monks couldn’t have done it with- out the help of the gangster-turned-monk. Brother Or- chid (Connie Doherty). The Theatre Company folded for the 1968 season on Thursday, May 11, with thun- derous applause for its production. Brother Orchid. The success of this year’s performance was a tribute, not only to the school and its Graduating Class, but also to the producing, directing, costuming, etc., etc., etc., of the great Conrad Jameson. S tick ’em up! L Bowling I This year the Class I Bowling Club spent its second year at the Huntington 55 Bowling Alleys. For most of the mem- bers it was the second year of donning the rented suede bowling shoes and try- ing to keep a seemingly ungovernable ball out of two abysmal gutters. Com- petition, as always, was keen and attend- ance was excellent. President Ken Gloss, along with Doug Ratta, Fran O’Meara, Dennis Duggan, and other high scorers from last year’s Class II Bowling Club gave good accounts of themselves, and lent a helping hand to those few senior novices in the mys- teries of candle pin bowling.

This year the J.E.T.S. ful- filled the objectives of the club and broadened its scope immensely. Besides its prim- ary goal, acquainting the members with the various as- pects of engineering, the J.E.T.S. were able to obtain such speakers as Dr. John Corrigan from Tufts, Dr. A. J. Hill from M.I.T. and Prof. Ro- bert Wiener from Northeas- tern. These people introduced the membership to fields such as Biochemistry and photo- chemistry, and enabled the club to obtain a more diversi- fied knowledge of the scien- ces. We extend our thanks to Prof. Rule of Northeastern Univ. for allowing the club to continue its computer pro- gramming course using the university’s computer facili- ties and we especially thank Mr. Joseph Walsh, our spon- sor.

The success of different companies was trac- ed through the effects of choice of pro- duct, the efficiency of manufacturer, and the ability to sell. The club’s goal was to reinforce the purpose of all Junior Achievement: to introduce high school students to an education of business mechanics through experience. The Jun- ior Achievement Club concept, unique to the school, plays an important part in the all-around education offered at the Latin School.

Second This pictures has to go! Journalistic Union This past year witnessed a striking new development in the literary conventions of the Boston Latin School. The formation of the Journalistic Union ushered in a new spirit of cooperation and interchange of ideas between the staff members of Latin School’s literary publications. Meetings were held by the editors of Liber Actorum and the Register at which the journalistic techniques of the respective publications were compared and even modified. Discussion of the various experiences of these editors in such areas as the Columbia University Scholastic Press Conference and, of course, regular composition of the publi- cations served as an informative vehicle which will most cer- tainly expedite the preparation of future volumes and num- bers.

Key Club On Saturday night, September 22, 1968, the Boston Latin School Key Club kicked off what would become, perhaps, the most suc- cessful year in its long history with the Second Annual Appreciation Banquet. The featured speaker was Mr. Lee (Adirondack Shilelagh) Brow of Kiwanis. Continuing in the club’s long tradition of service, members participated in such worth- while undertakings as an “alley clean-up” with the B.R.A., a Christmas project with the Salvation Army and WBZ radio, school- wide clean-ups, and assorted projects with United Community Services. After such a busy and successful year, it must be said that the B.L.S. Key Club is true to the motto “We Build.” Mr. President. Key Club First Row: Robinson (Rec.

The membership undertook such worthwhile projects as the tutoring of underclassmen and the soliciting of contributions for the Music Festival Ad Book. Continuing in the tradition of “The Aristocracy of the In- tellect’’, the society has aug- mented its ranks with out- stand juniors, bringing the total membership well over a hundred.

During each meeting, the club listened to records whose content ranged from jazz to organ fugues and dirges. After the playing of each record, the membei ' s discussed the many aspects of the music. In addition to these sessions, the club visited The Symphony several Friday afternoons during the school year and held meetings at the home of the club’s resident musician — Morton Hyams.

There was such a great response to the first bulletin about the club, that Presi- dent Mort Hyams decided to divide the en- thusiasts into squads A and B, according to class in order to allow the younger players more time to gain experience before they entered into competition. The members of the very first B.L.S. Tennis Team came mainly from classes I and II. It is hoped that as time goes on and the team gains ex- perience it will be able to put B.L.S. on top in still another area.

The club showed signs of definite progress. With the devotion and the ex- uberant interest of new members, the club developed some real muscle tone. The club awarded athletic letters to out- standing members. To merit a letter, one had to lift three times 9 10 his weight in three specific exercises: the Mili- tary Press, the Olympic Clean and Jerk, and either a squat or split style snatch.

With that in mind, the 1967-1968 Victory Club attempted to encourage even gi ' eater interest in athletics in an already “high gear” school. Buses were hired for distant football games, rallies were held, Indian Rain Dances were per- formed, etc., etc., etc. Future Victory Clubs, however, will benefit most from this year’s work. Over $500 was raised from dues and “Purple Power” buttons. With some of this, the club bought new megaphones for next year’s cheerleaders and also bought a much-needed whirlpool bath for the football team. The members of this year’s club deeply appreciate the cooperation and devotion displayed during the past year by Dr. O’Leary and Dr. Desmond, and hope that the club will reach even zanier heights in the future.

The band offers an opportunity for boys of all classes to fully discover their talents, while representing the school with honor. The Band performed with sparkling pre- cision, despite the driving rain, on Thanks- giving day, however, there was more to band work than precision marching, as Mr. Young and the boys proved during various state- wide competitions, school assemblies, and the highly acclaimed Music Festival.

This year Col. (jhiarini and his staff attempted to indoctrinate the cadets in the niceties of military eti- quette. The long hours of practice in the Gym and in the school yard paid off on Turkey day when an impeccable performance by the Drill Team capped a victorious, if some what sodden, day. The Drill Team also ushered at functions such as the J.P. Ken- nedy Debate tournament. The officers and cadets offer their heart- felt thanks to Col. Chiarini for his kind- ness and patience.

This year’s dance w as a sparkling affair, for the sensational victory over “the boys in blue” gave good cause to celebrate.

MIDWINTER DANCE To the surprise of many, the Midwinter Dance somehow managed to be a success. Due to a change in the management of the Ramada Inn, the site of the dance was moved at the last moment to the K of C Hall in East Boston. “The Techniques”, scheduled to play, were involved in an automobile accident and were replaced by “The Four Musketeers”. However the eve- ning, in spite of these circumstances, pro- vided entertainment for all and success- fully completed the semi-formal calendar of the school year. Class Council Class Council “Don’t ask me.” During 1967-68 the Class Council con- tinued in its tradition of promoting school spirit and planning social events. The Council’s forty members served as advis- ers and assistants to the class officers. A successful drive to increase the num- ber of spectators at athletic events was undertaken as a joint effort by the Vic- tory Club and the Council. The Class of 1968 hopes that, in future years, the Council will be able to expand its efforts on behalf of a successful B.L.S. athletic program. “Somebody must know what to do.” 156 First Row: Squillante, Klein, Morgante, Kuritsky, Fournier, Kearney, Ventresca, Fitzsimmons, Vinci, Grooms.

Class Day 1968, held Friday, May 3, was truly an unforgettable one. The pro- gram, which included the traditional poem, oration, and president’s message, was highlighted by the Class Day play and a few surprises. Probably the most memorable event, however, for the Graduating Class was the Farewell Prom, held at the Blue Hill Country Club. Indeed a splendid time was had by all. All that now re- mained for the Class of 1968 was graduation itself. The senior class wishes to express its gratitude to Mr. Colbert for his invalu- able assistance in making Class Day and the Prom so successful. ZPh.iTi3 sT ' ' l 1 J flljf J 1 Bn n !
