Bristol High School - Green and White Yearbook (Bristol, RI)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1954 volume:

This book is the key to our high school life. On which we can depend in times of strife, To bring back the memories remote, but gay. Of the good times we had day after day. So when these times come, we’ll just pick up that key. Which will open the door of a happy journey. We'll embark by ourselves on a yearbook tour, One of the utmost enjoyment, I'm sure. We'll look at our classmates and no doubt recall, A dance or a game where we once saw them all. As we continue through the pages. We’ll see our youth in different phases: The pictures of our operetta and play; Or the informal photos, both witty and gay; The literary work, which might be our own; Or the underclassmen that we had known; The different clubs to which we belonged; Or the sports section; they'll all be thronged With thoughts that will make our trip extend. But although it was fun it must come to an end. Yes, this book is a symbol and it's pages hold. The best years of our lives in pleasant thoughts untold.

BURKE I would like to leave with you just one thought relative to the part which you will play in the affairs of your community after graduation. There is creeping into the everyday life of many individuals, and I feel that there are far too many, a tendency to measure service to others by what might be the personal gain; specifically, I mean that all too prevalent attitude of What do I get out of it?” Let me caution you that this attitude will inevitably make the kind of community in which you would have no desire to live. The full measure of doing well includes some service for others, for in living he who builds a fence around himself shuts out more than he shuts in. John L.

The sky was clear and the day warm, but still there was that strange feeling of the mysterious. I was down by the lake taking my usual sunbath when I saw a large object appear in the sky. It was quite a distance from me; therefore, I could not make it out. Suddenly it came plunging down to earth, the door opened and out came a little man who couldn’t have been more than four feet tall. In his hand he had a book which looked familiar to me, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it before. He sat down and began skimming through the pages. Then it came to me; it was my yearbook. Where had he gotten it, and from whom? While all these questions were running through my mind, I forgot about him. Before 1 knew it four men who looked exactly like him were carrying me to the saucer-like object. There was a loud explosion and I found myself travelling through space. It was a matter of minutes before we landed. Where, I couldn't tell you. For I had ho knowledge of where I was and who these people were. When they opened the door I was flabbergasted.” Here I was standing in front of my old Alma Mater, Bristol Senior High. Surrounding me were all my classmates and I found myself re-living my high school days. First we went into the auditorium and sat in our places while Mr. Burke explained to the student body the rules and regulations that we were to abide by. He then assigned us to our homerooms. 12 The first few weeks were uneventful. Then came the task of electing officers. Elected to represent our class were: President, Raymond Sousa; Vice President, John Matheson; Secretary, Nancy DuPont; Treasurer, Joseph Travers. Days went by quickly, more quickly than we had realized for now midyears were here. Then came the big day, May 29th, the Sophomore Hop, a dance sponsored by the Sophomore Class. 1 remember how beautiful the auditorium looked, decked in our class colors of red and gold. The month following the dance went by quickly, bringing with it the final examinations. Then came our well-earned summer vacation. All good things must come to an end and so did our vacation. September found us mighty juniors, not the shy sophomores of the previous year. And again we elected officers: President, John Matheson; Vice President, Raymond Sousa; Secretary, Jessica Castigliego; Treasurer, Joseph Travers. Elected to the executive committee were: Theresa Aronne, Norman Pigeon, Ann Marie Nunes, Thomas Murray, Paul Vona and I, Margaret Lewis. We resumed our regular studies, attended dances and football games. Everything ran smoothly until the month of Februaiy. Then the commotion started. While walking through the corridors all that could be heard was, Have you been asked yet? or, Who are you going to ask? Yes, you guessed right — the Junior Prom. Finally the night came, April 17th. Oh, what a beautiful sight, the girls in their colorful gowns and the boys in their white jackets. We danced to the music of A1 and Irving Rosen's orchestra in the beautifully decorated auditorium. Twelve o'clock arrived all too soon, the Prom was over. But the memories of that joyful evening will always linger in our minds. We then left for our last vacation from Colt. We returned to school as sophisticated seniors and shortly after, class elections were held: President, Manuel Marshall; Vice President, John Matheson; Treasurer, Joseph Travers; and I, Margaret Lewis, Secretary. Elected to the executive committee were: Raymond Sousa, Thomas Murray, Joseph Cavallaro, Ann Marie Nunes and Dolores Ferreira. Then in October, They finally arrived. That is, our class rings. You could always spot a senior when you saw the flash of That gold ring. Days passed quickly and on December 7th and 8th, Mr. Van Dale very patiently instructed us as to our poses for class pictures. In January the pupils that were chosen for the parts in the class play, Brother Goose,” started rehearsals under the capable assistance of Mrs. Donovan. The play was very successful. Then we started practicing for the operetta, Meet Me In St. Louis,” with much enthusiasm. Again — Mrs. Donovan produced a hit. Before we knew it Class Day, June 23rd 1954, was upon us and we were sitting on the platform listening to the Will, Prophecy, and History. That same night our banquet was held. What appetites those boys had! I never saw so much food disappear so quickly. The big moment arrived — Graduation. How beautiful the girls looked in their white gowns and the boys, too, were just as handsome in their white jackets and dark trousers. But behind all this there was a feeling of regret as we sang our Alma Mater and realized that we would no longer be students, but members of the Alumni. Our last dance, the Senior Reception, was held Friday. This would be the last time our class would meet as a group. Suddenly there was a flash of light and a thunderous crash. As I awoke, I found myself lying on the beach and I realized that this had only been a dream. 13 Margaret Lewis THERESA ARONNE Trea College Preparatory What can innocence hope for?

For instance, last week I was invited to a party at the house of a friend of mine. Here I met and became the victim of two supposed fortune tellers. They claimed that they could foretell my future in any one of my coming years in this big, wild world of ours. Laughing at them, 1 called their bluff. With hurt pride the two fortune tellers ushered me into a darkened room away from the other party guests and seated me on a large soft sofa. Then one of them produced a large needle which he dipped into a small tube of liquid. Before I could stop him, he plunged the needle into the back of my neck and almost immediately I became paralyzed. I was completely helpless and rapidly fell to sleep. It was a peaceful sleep; one that puts you completely at ease, almost dead. I could see nothing because I seemed to be floating peacefully through a dense fog. Soon the fog began to clear and I found myself in a U. S. Naval Officer's uniform, standing on a wharf which had Navy signs pasted all over it. Then suddenly the realization of it came to me. I must be in the future. But what year? What month, day? Where was I? Quickly I ran over to a shore patrolman and told him that I had felt kind of dizzy and couldn't remember where I was. He looked at me queerly and replied, New York City, sir. Anything else, sir? Yes”, I replied. Please give me the exact date today. Again he gave me that strange look and replied. Commander, sir, the date is July 3, 1968. Time is twenty minutes past the hour of twelve, noon. Pardon, sir, are you all right? Happily I replied yes and hurried away to an airport where I bought a plane ticket to Providence, R. I. because I wanted to see what had become of Bristol. Twenty minutes later our atomic-jet transport landed at the airport, which was built over Union Station on the Mall. From there I hopped an atomic taxi to Bristol. As the taxi-driver turned around 1 was startled to see NORMAN PIGEON. We talked while he drove and he told me that business was terrific with not very many accidents lately. Now that I look back, NORM was the taxi-driver type. Three minutes later I jumped out of the taxi in front of AL BURKE'S SANITARY LADY'S SALON. AL BURKE'S Lady's Salon? No! I couldn't believe it, could this be the AL BURKE I knew? Oh! Well, Emily did have quite a hold on him. I walked in, and there was AI. giving some lady, with a towel over her face, a hair stiffener treatment. We shook hands and you should have seen the neat mustache he was wearing. Suddenly the towel flew off the lady in the chair and there before me sat IRENE VALERIO. She let out a scream and started telling all about her new home in Warren and her little family of twins, husband, cat, dog and black Chevvie. IRENE also told me about MARGARET MANCHESTER, who had become a lovelorn columnist or so-called marriage broker for the Providence Journal. Anyone with problems of love wrote in to her for advice. We sang songs and talked for an hour before I left. As I walked up Hope Street, I stopped to look at a huge sign which read HONEST JOE COCCIO'S CHEVROLET-FORD SHOWROOM. And there was JOE trying to sell a late-model atomic number to none other than CAROLE MAGEE. Quickly I ran over to them and we started reminiscing. JOE was a happily married man and father of nine girls. Also, on Sunday nights he was a stand-in for Mr. Peepers on Mr. Peeper's T.V. Show. CAROLE had become a traveling saleswoman, selling army surplus shoes and airplanes. She said business was very profitable. After I left my two old friends and started walking again, I was almost knocked down by a fast-moving policeman. His nose hit me first and before I could recover he was on me. Finally I got him to stop and as I looked past his nose I saw the face of SABBY CAROMILE. He recognized me and apologized for the upset. SABBY had become Chief of Police and was rushing to the scene of a robbery at FRANK VACCARO'S Meat Market. I decided to go along and see FRANK for old times' sake. We arrived a few minutes later and the first person my eyes beheld was RALPH FASANO, Ace Crime Photographer for the newspaper, The Bristol Moonshine. FRANKIE was there also, and after talking with him I learned that he owned a chain of meat markets spread throughout Bristol County. FASANO had won wide acclaim for being one of the sharpest-dressed reporters in Rhode Island. He had become so successful that he was able to buy a large spaghetti house on Federal Heights in Providence. Seeing that everyone was busy trying to learn all the facts about the robbery, I quietly departed. Going past the Pastime Theater I saw a well-dressed man emerge from it and walk towards a Cadillac parked at the curb. Why, it was PAUL PRICE. When I called to him he stopped and we began chewing the fat. PAUL had become manager of the Movie Usher's Union and had just finished collecting dues. He seemed very happy at his job. 35 CLASS PROPHECY COLLEGE PRERARATORY Hiring a car, I decided to take a ride around the famous Colt's Drive. On the site of the old poor farm was a fairly new building which had a huge sign in front of it. The sign read: MISS ANN CORNELL'S Ballerina School for Young Ladies. So ANN turned out to be a ballet dancer, after all. Driving by Colt Farm 1 stopped in surprise, for there stood FRANCIS DE RISO. We greeted each other and he explained that the farm had been turned into a pheasant sanctuary, a place where pheasants could live in peace. He told me that the farm protected more than twenty-thousand of the birds, and he was the manager of the place. Next I decided to drop in on two old classmates; however, they were not at home. Their mother, Mrs. Perry, told me that EMILY and CECILIA had become quite popular singers and had been members of Arthur Godfrey's Happy Family for two years. She assured me that they still had their humility. I knew what she meant. By chance I happened to meet THERESA ARONNE who was visiting from her new home in Troy, New York. She told me that she had been married for over ten years now and had three children. On the side, she wrote murder mysteries for the program T. V's Dragonet. I asked her what ever happened to ANN CAI.DF.RISO and she told me the last she had heard, ANN was doing a singing and dancing act out in Reno, Nevada. She was billed as The Bristol Canary.” Also, THERESA informed me that SIS D'ALESSIO, who was always the athletic type had graduated from college and been chosen to represent the United States as a woman hammer-thrower in the coming Olympics. MANNY MARSHALL had gone into the hardware business and located his store down where the old Scout hall used to be, on the corner of Hope and Franklin Streets. Oh, well, he always wanted to be near home, anyway. At another corner not so far away, I learned that MANUEL JOSEPHS had taken over a bakery, and was raising a big family. His brother JOHN had now risen from street-sweeper to the position of driving one of the trucks in the town’s highway department. Although JOHN was supposed to be the smarter of the twins, and should have gone to college, I guess he was content with his job. Speaking to SUZANNE WIESE, whom I happened to meet in a downtown drugstore, I learned that she had become a bathing-suit and fur-coat model in New York. She was home for the holiday, and she also wanted to meet her old friends. She began telling me about PATRICIA SWANSON, now a well-established disc jockey on Station W F A G. PAT ran a program of her own called Let's Throw Some Platters. PAT always did seem to be full of the devil when she looked at you from behind those glasses of hers. As SUE and I continued to talk, into the drug store walked happy-go-lucky JUDY ROBINSON. She had rolled into Bristol in an old farm truck full of eggs and thirteen children, all her own. JUDY told us she married a Barrington fellow and settled down on a farm he bought in Bristol. She looked very happy and healthy. JUDY happened to mention that she had to drop off a dozen eggs for JESSICA CASTIG-LIEGO, who was working as a secretary for the Electric Company. JESSICA always was attracted to the Electric Company. As I drove SUE home, we passed a construction team clearing a field and knocking down trees. Some wild-eyed chap was cutting down trees with a souped up bull-dozer. It was PAUL D'AMICO. He was driving the dozer as if it were a hot-rod. SUE and I figured that he must have taken over his father's construction business and turned it into a destruction business. Driving down the road, we spotted a car parked by the side of the road; a woman, wearing a huge sun-bonnet, was trying to fix a flat tire. I stopped to offer my assistance and look down into the eyes of NANCY DU PONT. While I was changing the tire, she told me all about her exciting career which was a great shock to me. NANCY had just returned from South Africa, where she had been the leader of a secret sect called the Mau Maus. She told me she felt sorry for those black people and wanted to help them. She sure had changed. Soon after, my head began spinning and spin-ing, the room was filled with noisy people, loud voices kept shouting, He's dead, he's dead” and then my eyes opened. As my head cleared I saw the host of the party and all the guests surrounding me, asking me what had happened. I told them that the two fortune tellers had doped me, and I fell unconscious. As I asked where the two men were, I checked my back pocket for my wallet, which was gone, and also I learned that the fortune tellers, or thieves, had left, too. After all, it was worth something to me to be able to look into the future and see what some of my friends had become in life. JOHN W. MATHESON 36 CLASS PROPHECY GENERAL AND HOUSEHOLD ARTS Here it is, the year 1984. It's been thirty years since 1 was graduated. It really doesn't seem that long. I was sitting in my rocking chair thinking of my high school days and classmates whom 1 hadn't seen for a long time. My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. I went to see who was there but saw no one. I walked into the yard, thinking maybe they were leaving since I hadn't opened the door right away. Suddenly a gigantic wind blew and blew, caught me in it, and I found myself back in Bristol, R. I. 1 hadn't been there since I married my high school beau. 1 started walking down the street and saw a sign which read Artificial Thumbs for Sale. Now what in the world could this be? I entered the store and sitting behind a desk was a tall, nice-looking man. As 1 reached the desk, I noticed he was my classmate, FRANK SANTOS. He told me he thought of the idea when he was in high school. You see, FRANK was dating a girl from Warren and always had to thumb” rides to Warren. He said it would be easier for the boys because their thumbs wouldn’t freeze in the winter while waiting for a ride. I left his office to continue on my way. Running down the street was a group of boys. I couldn't imagine why they were running; then I noticed BARBARA JANE BOTELHO chasing them. 1 stopped her to ask what was the trouble. She told me it was Sadie Hawkins Day, and she was trying to catch a man. This amazed me for BARBARA was quite popular while in school. Why the boys didn't want to be caught was beyond me. I then came to a large building with a huge sign which read, Saviano Art Studio. I only remember one person by the name of SAVIANO, but it couldn’t be JULIE. Well, the only way to find out was to go inside and see for myself. Sure enough, to my surprise Miss JULIE SAVIANO was standing with a palette in her hand. She always said she'd like to become an artist and she finally made a career of it. Her model was none other than ANDREA D'AMBROSIA, posed as Mark Anthony. He certainly had the physique for it. Walking up State Street, I noticed a change. Where the Bristol Common once stood now was a circus. To be exact, it was the Schinigoi Circus,” with Miss BETTY ANN SCHINIGOI as the main attraction. I was just in time to see her performance. She sure left the audience breathless, especially when she swung on the trapeze by her big toe. BETTY was the only woman in the world to accomplish this feat. Not far from the Circus I saw a group of teenagers swooning. Now what could be making them swoon? I got up closer and saw JERRY SERBST. He was the one that had these teen-agers looking as if they were in a fog. He was singing Stranger in Paradise.” I was tired of walking, so I thought I’d call a taxi. I waited a while but never saw any taxis, all I saw were rocket ships. Then one pulled up beside me and the driver asked me if I’d like a ride. I looked, and you'd never guess who it was: MAUREEN MURPHY! She had become a lady rocket driver. MAUREEN took me as far as Wood Street. Here a tall, handsome man went zooming by in a long yellow limousine with a hopped-up-motor, and seeing me, stopped. When he alighted, he was wearing a zoot-suit with a long chain hanging from the pocket of his suit. I couldn't imagine who this was, then he gave his name Yes, you’re right, it was JOI AVAI.1.AKO Walking down the street, 1 caiuc to Sousa's Barber Shop and in small print on a sign I read Featuring The Barber Shop Quartet. This I had to hear. I entered, and there singing while giving the customers haircuts and shaves were my classmates, JOE TRAVERS, DICK JOHNSON, DANNY RAMOS and singing bass was RAY SOUSA. I sure saw a lot of amazing things today, but believe me this was the most amazing. Right across the street was a large building, a hospital. This was a new, and an excellent addition to the town. Entering I met my friend BARBARA MIDDLETON, who was now a very happy nurse. I’m glad she succeeded, for she always wanted to be a nurse. I still hadn't visited dear old Colt High. This would be my next stop. I walked inside and everything was different. The principal was ANGELO PANZARELLA. I knew his ambition was to become a teacher, but I never thought he'd be the principal of Colt High. I looked around to see if any other changes had been made. Sure enough, something else was different. Mr. Rebello, our high school janitor, had been replaced by FRED CORNELL. I went into Andrews School and was looking in the I. A. Shop to see if the boys were making any new inventions. I was shocked to see an all-girl class. The teacher saw me and walked up to me. At first I wasn't sure who it was; then she told me she was Miss SILVIA. It couldn’t be, but it was, MARY LOU SILVIA teaching girls how to handle tools. This town had really changed. There still were two classmates I hadn’t seen. On Bradford Street, where Bristol's only theatre, The Pastime, once stood now was a lonely hearts club. This amazed me but it shocked me more when I saw who owned and advised the lonely. Who- I’ll tell you, RALPH WILCOX and LEE DUBEY. This really was a wonderful experience, seeing all my classmates again. In fact, its one I'll never forget. 37 FRANCES G MARSHALL CLASS PROPHECY INDUSTRIAL ARTS AND GENERAL CLERICAL It was a warm summer day in the month of June of 1974. I, with my wife and children, was cleaning the spare room, when we came across the year book of our old Alma Mater”, Bristol Senior High School, better known as Colt”. Suddenly, everything went black and my head started to spin. I awoke, only to find myself in front of a large sign which read in bright colors, Q. Q.’s Ringside , FRANK Q. Q. SILVIA, Proprietor. I walked in and saw standing in front of the bar, a fellow wearing purple pegged pants, a yellow vest, and a bright orange tie. At once I recognized him to be none other than Q. Q. himself. He offered me a drink, so I gladly accepted a glass of milk, but later found that I had to treat myself. He told me BOB GETCHELL was running a school for Women Marines. I asked him where the school was and after he told me I went there immediately, almost flying. Upon entering I saw a huge object come flying across the room, bounce off the wall, and land on the floor in front of me. It was none other than BOB GETCHELL. As he struggled to rise, out of the other door came a little girl whom I recognized to be SUZANNE PARADISO. She stood on his arms and said, Try that again and the next time you'll go through the wall. I talked with them a while and was told that BOB CORDEIRO, having had twelve children, all boys, had started two basketball teams. They also told me that JUDITH GARVIN was married to Billy Seamans and they were the manufacturers of Nicotineless Cigars. I then left and went farther on down the street. Then from out of nowhere I heard someone call, Hey, Vona. I turned around and looked everywhere but didn't see anyone. Up here! it called. Then I looked up and, peering out of a window on the second floor was NORMAN LOWREY. I went into the building and up the stairs to a door with a sign which read: NORMAN'S TRAINED PARAKEETS. I knocked and walked in where I found NORMAN sitting in front of a pair of parakeets, whistling a tune, and the parakeets whistling right along with him. He told me that JOE RAMOS was now teaching ballet lessons at Arthur Murray's Studio. Only now he owned the Studio and gave it this slogan: IF YOU WANT TO LEARN TO DANCE, COME TO OUR STUDIO AND TAKE A CHANCE. I went down the hall and noticed a large gold frame with a picture of a man in it. I went closer to it and much to my surprise saw TOMMY MURRAY. He was advertising for Charles Atlas Muscle Men. I then left the building and went on down the street. I saw an open lot on which there was a giant circus. There was a sign which read: PEE WEE'S CLIP JOINT . I walked in and around the lot, coming to the conclusion that this was no place for me. So as I started on my way out someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned quickly, but didn't see anyone. I then looked down and there standing behind me was PEE WEE himself, smoking that good old cigar he always left studies for. I asked him about the I. A. Gang and he told me that two of them were working for him. CHARLIE VIERA was an elephant trainer and ate peanuts all day. Also working for him was JOHNNY BETTENCOURT. PEE WEE told me to walk down the path a little and there I saw a group of people stop. Well, I did just that and looking over someone's shoulder I saw, peeping through a hole, JOHNNY BETTENCOURT. The name of the stand was: KNOCK HIM OUT. Well, I knew it was what he always wanted, so I left, feeling a bit pleased. I left the lot and went on my way along that long winding road. I then came to a Five and Dime store and walked in. I saw ALICE ALVES running around like mad. I stopped her to see what the rush was. She said, Sorry, can’t talk now. The managers never let us stop, I thought to myself, Boy, what slave drivers.” No wonder the managers were tough. They were women, none other than RITA MURGO and ANNA MAIORANO. They were both holding whips in their hands. Well, I got out of there in a hurry and went into a drug store around the corner. I walked in and behind the counter was the one and only, BILL MAGEE, the best mixologist in town. Never failed to miss the glass when pouring a cabinet. He gave me a drink and I left feeling a bit drowsy, but I kept going. I came to a beautiful parlor; an Undertaker’s Parlor. The plaque on the house read: FURTADO AND VARGAS, EMBI.AMERS. I recognized the names, so I went in. EMILY greeted me and said, Step this way, young man, we have just the right size slab for you.” SADIE then came over to me and started to take my measurements. It seemed I just couldn't get out of there fast enough. I went on down the street and I noticed a large sign reading: ANDREWS. This I set as my next destination. Walking three blocks I finally came to the sign. It read: ANDREWS' FLYING SAUCERS, OLD AND NEW. I walked in and there, sitting behind a saucer-like desk was ONOFRIO ANDREWS. He greeted me with a smile and we sat and chatted for a while. He then took me to the repair shop. He show’ed me the latest models in Flying Saucers. NIFFY told me that MARTIN RAPOSA was chief of mechanics. We talked with MARTIN a while and then I bid them good-by. I walked down the road a little further when I saw a small white cottage. I saw a woman who looked familiar to me. I walked over and sure enough, it was another classmate, EMILY SOARES. She was now a woman veterinarian. She took me in her small hospital and showed me some of her patients. She told me that MARIE CASTIGLIE-GO was a fortune teller. So over to MARIE'S house I went. I rang the door bell and a spirit-like voice answered, saying Enter into the world of tomorrow . I walked in; the hall was dark and dreary looking. There was a woman sitting in a room, with a tall conelike hat set on her head. She wore a silken gown with stars on it. I sat down and she spoke my name. I asked her how she knew and she said, EMILY told 38 CLASS PROPHECY INDUSTRIAL ARTS AND GENERAL CLERICAL me you were coming. We calked for a while, then I left. Further on down the street I saw a sign which read, ESTRELLA S MUSCLE HOUSE. Immediately I thought of GILL ESTRELLA who was always showing his muscles. I walked in and, sure enough, there was GILL ESTRELLA giving a lecture on How to Lift Weights Without Getting Hurt . I sat in the rear of the room, unnoticed by the rest of the group. He talked and talked as usual. Finally the lecture was finished and the class was dismissed. He walked over to me but didn't recognize me. He said, Yes Sir, What can I do for you, but before he finished he said, Why PAUL, how have you been? We talked over the good times at our Alma Mater, especially our Radio Class where GILL and BILL MAGEE would talk all period. He also told me that ROGER OLIVER was now a rich man. He owned the whole of Poppa-squash and was now on his way toward purchasing Colt's Drive. He was made rich by the invention of a bullet that would go around trees. I then left GILL and started walking further on till I came to an athletic field, and there I saw a fellow whom I recognized to be PRIMO CADILE, one of our great athletes in school. I went up to him and he recognized me right away. I asked him what he was doing here in this field and in those old clothes. He said he was janitor for the football season. Then suddenly I heard someone yelling. It sounded so far away. Then I felt someone tugging at my shirt. I opened one eye and then the other, very happy to see my youngest child trying to wake me. I got up, stumbling. Then I saw the partially bent stem of the floor lamp. It had fallen on me while we were looking through our year book. PAUL VONA COMMERCIAL The train was nearing the station and in about five minutes I would be back in Bristol, after having been away for forty years. The train came to a stop, and I alighted from the baggage car. The town had changed very much. As I was waddling along the platform looking through my four-dimension goggles, I bumped into someone. Turning, I saw one of my old classmates from Colt, FRANCES MACHADO. I hardly recognized her, for she had dyed her hair blonde and told me she had opened a Mexican-jumping-bean-store. She certainly put the jump in the beans, and when she walked I could see why. We went to lunch and talked about our days at Colt. She told me that SARAH TATTRIE, JOAN FRANCIS, and PEGGY LEWIS were singing together and called themselves the Harmony Girls. LORETTA BORGIA was married and had twelve children. George, her husband, needed the help of the children on their alligator farm. He raised the alligators and LORETTA made the handbags. But, I was really surprised when FRANCIS told me that JANICE SILVIA and ANDREANNA SILVIA had joined the Foreign Legion. They were disappointed in their love-lives. The waitress gave us our check, and we left the restaurant. As we were walking along the street, we felt a ray of heat and turning we saw a red convertible with all sorts of contraptions. Suddenly it came to a stop and out popped SHIRLEY GIRARD who told us she had invented a means by which her car would run on prune juice. We started talking when all of a sudden she jumped into her car and told us that she had to get to the circus. We asked if we could join her, and she took us there. As we were on our way, we passed by a large sign which read, If you want to reduce come to Julie's Reducing Salon' and lose weight quickly. I asked SHIRLEY if she would take us there. We went in and were met by a woman weighing at least 300 pounds. Oh! It was JULIE. She looked so cute with her three chins, and we all let out a little chuckle. We looked into the gym and saw NATALIE BRUM and FRANCES MARSHALL practicing for their bout, for they were lady wrestlers. JULIE told us their names were Gorgeous NAT and The Dutchess”. We left poor JULIE and went to the circus. As we were entering the circus tent, we heard the barker saying, Come one, Come all, see the three greatest acrobats in the world, The Flying Wonders. We looked up to see ANN MARIE NUNES hanging by her nose, MARY MASCOLA hanging by her little finger and LORRAINE ALMEDIA hanging to MARY'S foot. You should have seen them dangling in the air. I don't think we ever laughed so much. After their act was over, they came over to talk to us. LORRAINE told us that ANGELA SCOLARO and LORRAINE PACHECO were still looking for husbands. As we were leaving, she told us to visit Miss Cavallaro's Spinsters' Home. We arrived at the home and were greeted by GILDA, the head mistress, the oldest spinster there. We looked into a small room and saw ANGELA FERRARA and LEONORA RUGGIERO knitting and singing the old ballad, I Don't Want a Ricochet Romance”. We left the home and on our way we saw someone on the side of the road. We stopped and we saw RITA FERNANDES. She told us that she owned a gum factory, and her specialty was FERNANDES' Chew-All Day Gum. It was specially mare for classroom use. Wishing her luck we continued on our way. We stopped at a roadside stand and saw DOROTHY CORDEIRO, BETTY FURTADO and ALICE MENEZES. They told us they owned the stand and their specialty was Atomic Delights”. After having one of them we saw it was time for my train to leave. Arriving at the station just in time, I got on the baggage car. I was very happy to have seen my classmates. Suddenly I fell out of bed. It was only a dream and I was glad that's all it was. DOLORES FERREIRA 39 GRADUATION AWARDS RENSSELAER AWARD LITERARY A RETURN HOME I walked up the marble staircase. And opened the old oak door. This building with its beautiful face Welcomed me home once more. Cheers! For the championship was won, Sad when the team couldn't score Oh, what I'd give for all that fun Down in the lunch room, once more. Forty years of work had passed, And I had reached life's goal, But all that Fortune had on me cast Was due to this hallowed hall. Then came the day when down this aisle I walked, For the last time in many a year. I went into this world of which they had talked And chose my life’s career. Here were spent my life’s best years, And here my memories stay; And now as I walk down the aisle again, I think of what I've done. Now here to my eyes come happy tears This place, these people had been my friends As I think of yesterday. And showed me right from wrong. Here I laughed and here I cried, Without them I could never have been Met success and failed; Whatever I am today. Yes, here I laughed and here I sighed I'll always remember 'till journey's end As ambitions skyward sailed. These friends, and to all I'll say, — The room was dark and deserted, But as I opened its door Echoes of days gone too swiftly past Forty years of life's rocky path, Forty years I’ve lived for the day, When tired and worn by life's own wrath, Ran through my mind once more. A last visit to dear old Colt I'd pay. I. Valerio 12A February 17, 1954 The game last night was a fizzle, All the boys were in a dizzle, They couldn't shoot, The crowd didn't root. And outside there was a slight drizzle. There is no joy in Colt; The loss last night was a jolt, They played their worst, Came home in a hearse And disappeared as quick as a bolt. G. Serbst 12B 42 There once was a boy named Bill, Who liked to play on the hill. One day he got lost In the wintery frost And now he is writing his will! D. Ramos 12B There once was a man from Nantucket Who got his head caught in a bucket He shouted and yelped But nothing had helped And so he moved to Pawtucket. F. Santos 12B THE CLASS OF 1954 We've followed a long road together, And now we're nearing the end; A new door awaits our arrival. Different interests in life now begin. We’ve worked and made merry together. We've studied and crammed all the facts, We've struggled, then laughed at misfortunes, Our friendship always will last. We’re ambitious, energetic, a bright happy group, Seldom dull or slow to react; We have had a good start in dear Colt High, We'll keep climbing and be proud to look back. C. Perry 12A COLT’S SEASON The first day of practice was quite a sight, The team's chances were none too bright. There were many candidates from which to select But none were great, as we recollect. As the season progressed and came to an end, Our winning the games was a school-wide trend. The games we lost were very few In fact, in all they numbered two. The big games were played when the teams arrived, When the smoke had cleared Colt Memorial survived. M. Marshall and R. Fasano 12A 43 First Row, Left to Right: M. Rebello, N. Mascena, J. Furtado, J.
