For Reference Not to be taken from this library ■ £ Szaaon to PP’ T£ld B8g � yJ ' ffW £ T uljLiaation 2 Do trlZ The newspaper has been a guiding light, Shining for centuries, never dim, The results of man’s unquenchable thirst, For freedom of speech once denied him. We pay tribute to the men of the press, Who surely could not foresee The value of the newspaper, A weapon in the hands of the free. As in our school life We study and work to be Men and women, qualified for our jobs, Sincere in the highest degree. There is a guiding light that shines From within our high-school dear. It too has led us through the turns Of many a happy year. Later in life when we pause to think, Happy memories this Beacon will recall, And we all will wish to pay tribute To the press—brightest beacon of all. 4 I. PICTURE THE BEACON GOES TO PRESS II.

FINIS THE DEADLINE IS MET MR. J. WILLIAM KENNELLY The editor-in-chief of our newspaper is J. William Kennedy, our head-master. He is a man whose chief interest lies in the students of the Chelsea High School and their welfare. Mr. Kennedy was schooled in Franklin, Massachusetts, where he studied at Horace Mann High School and later at Dean Acade¬ my. From Bates College, Maine, he received his Bachelor of Science degree. In later years he obtained his Mas? of Education degree from Boston University. It was first in 1925 that Mr. Kennedy be¬ came associated with the Chelsea school sys¬ tem when he acquired th° oosition of basket¬ ball coach at the Chelser Senior High School. He was appointed as junior master here in 1935. Ten years later he became master of Carter School, a post which he held until 1953. At this time he was appointed head¬ master of Chelsea Senior High School. Editor-in-chief Kennedy has become a friend to everyone and a guide to ad who seek his assistance. He is always available to coun¬ cil the school’s youth concerning scholastic, social, or personal problems. The cl ass of 1957 is indeed grateful to have such a fine man as their principal. Salto % MR. SUMNER M. DAVIS Mr. J. Frank Herlihy, superintendent of the Chelsea School System, has held that im¬ portant position for the past fifteen years. Mr. Herlihy was graduated from Boston Col¬ lege in 1928 with an A.B. degree and Boston University in 1934, with a Master’s degree in Administration. He is also a former Chelsea Senior High School teacher. Experience and wisdom are the factors which wed qualify Mr. Herlihy for this important post. Fulfilling the duties of Superintendent of Schools is a difficult task and Chelsea’s wed organized school system is proof that its head official is more than capable of handling its affairs. MR. FRANK HERLIHY, Superintendent Over thirty years ago, a soft-spoken, me¬ dium built man came to Chelsea to serve as submaster in our senior high school. Indeed, he has served in this position not only dili¬ gently and faithfully, but also with great respect for his fellow teachers and, of course, the students, themselves. In 1913, Mr. Davis entered Bates College where he participated in football, baseball, hockey and relay. Upon graduating from Bates, Mr. Davis received the position of submaster at Mexico High School in Maine. From 1919-1921 he served in this same position at Braintree Senior High School. In 1921, he came to Chelsea where he again became submaster. He organized and coached Chelsea’s first football team and coached the basketball and baseball teams. He was faculty manager until 1931 and since then has always spent his time working in the office. We are proud of this fine man and are deeply grateful for the fine work he has accomplished in our behalf. Miss Etta Kotzen, who has been employed in the office for quite a number of years, is an indispensable aid to the smooth function¬ ing of our school. Mrs. Grace Pizzano assists in the multitude of clerical duties with which the administra¬ tion is connected. The staff of office girls under Miss Kotzen’s supervision helps to keep the office running efficiently. Throughout the school day each girl donates her free period to assist in the various tasks about the office. The staff includes Freda Aronas, Claire Randall, Clare Shepard, Ellen Zabot, Gail Maziarski, Elaine Tenovsky, Joan Tashjian, Harriet Ratner, Mildred Tarlow, Louise Fahlin, Louise Carafa, and Margie Barrett. 7 s, dxzjioxtz’ii 8 FREDERICK ANDLER Boulkie” 47 Grove St. Jan. 24, 1940 Boulkie” is always full of fun, with a big grin or a smile for everyone.

Our very capable senior class officers, Frank DePatto, President; Fred Clark, Vice-Presi¬ dent; Joanne Balliro, Secretary; and Murray Frank, Treasurer; have led us through many successful activities. As the organizers and chairmen they have admirably conducted our junior dance, junior prom, junior picnic, sen¬ ior frolic, and senior prom.

The Senior Class Council, consisting of a boy and girl elected from each of the eight senior homerooms, is a prominent factor which in conjunction with the class officers and advisor plan all of our various activities and functions. They have helped decorate the gymnasium for our formal and semi-formal dances, supervised our picnic, and led the grand march at the proms. It is a recognized fact that we could not have had such success in our social life if the Senior Council had not worked so hard to accomplish all that had to be done. 39 tllE The honor of highest ranking student in the general course goes to Gerald King. Besides making the honor roll and high honor roll many times in the course of three years, Gerald is a member of the National Honor Society 40 also. His good, easy-going nature has always been his most admirable character trait in getting along well with other people. onoxi Claire Shepard for her high honor and honor roll marks through high school has won the title of highest ranking student in the commercial course. Claire’s ambition and spirit of determination are a sure insight into her success¬ ful future. She has also participated in many school ac¬ tivities such as GAT Society, Journalism Club, Honor Society and Pep Club. Phyllis Fineman, highest ranking senior in the college and technical courses, is well deserving of this honor. Her name has graced our high honor roll continually since her sophomore year. Phyllis’ charm and personality also render her an active member in many school clubs; she is secretary of the Latin Club and Honor Society, presi¬ dent of the Debating Club, and assistant editor of the Journalism Club. We wish her luck for success in the future. SaoojiEci Reading the senior statistics on class day this year will be Joanne Balliro, second highest ranking senior in the commercial course and most popular girl of ’57. Joanne’s charming personality and true friendliness have earned her as many honors as her fine marks. Her classmates have chosen her as class secretary, president of the Pep Club, and a member of the Red Cross Council. Hats off to Joanne, everyone! Chosen to read the history of our class on class day is Mildred Tarlow, second highest ranking student in the general course. Mildred is a member of the Honor So¬ ciety, Spanish Club, GAT Society, and Red Cross Rep¬ resentative—all this along with her good marks. Paul Feldman, second highest ranking student in the college and technical courses, will read the phophecy on class day. Paul has also been chosen as the most intellec¬ tual senior for his honor roll marks and cheerful spirit. As president of the German and Science Clubs, a member of the GAT Society, Traffic Squad, and assistant editor of the Journalism Club we can see the full range of his many activities. 41 Production dindi EXvua d zaoxtzu. in 3xainin 3 The department of English is dedicated to providing a good solid background in writing and speaking our national lan¬ guage. Since language is the basis of com¬ munication, we must have a thorough knowledge of it in order to express our ideas and to understand others. A substan¬ tial amount of grammar and literature are presented to the students in every English class throughout the school. Through the patience and understanding of able teach¬ ers the English department of Chelsea Senior High School enjoys a reputible po¬ sition of prestige among other schools. In the college course Miss Mary Hand, Miss Harriet Malone, and Mr. Max Ste¬ wart, who is head of the English depart¬ ment, endeavor to prepare their students for institutions of higher learning and col¬ lege boards and aptitude tests. The commercial course English instruc¬ tors, Miss Adeline Cox, Miss Margaret Connolly, Miss Agnes Burnett, and Miss Anna Kuhn, strive to qualify girls for fu¬ ture challenges in our world of business. Mr. Arthur Green, Mr. Maurice Green¬ field, Mrs. Margaret Melley, the academic and general course English teachers try to put across the basic principles of our lan¬ guage to their students. When we leave the high school, we shall be better prepared to begin our lives in the outside world due to our fine training in English. 44 Mr. Stewart—Head of the English Department. r i Hr m Sfcfc : -a,-U.r| W « ] A 7 1 , v | I Loud and clear, Phoebe.

Miss Kuhn ' s Class ULZ1 A student, upon completing a social studies course at the Senior High School, may be sure that he has received the best training which is available. He is now able to see the world situation in a clear intelli¬ gent view—an immeasurable asset to an educated person. The social studies department consists of business law, commercial geography, American history, world history, consum¬ er’s education, and problems of democracy. Only by viewing each separately can we fully realize its value. The most important, American history, taught by Max Leader, Bernard Berenson, and John Lenkiewicz, is required by every graduating student. Its object is to create an understanding of our democracy today, through studying the struggles of great men during the early development of our country. A great aid to the former is the study of world history. It stresses the means by which the past has influenced and con¬ tributed to our present mode of living. Our world history instructors are Miss Johanna Spring and Mr. Maurice Shapiro. A course in consumer’s education with Mr. Albert F. Pierotti helps a student un¬ derstand social and economic problems ex¬ isting in his own community today. Problems of democracy taught by Mr. Sheldon Greenglass is offered through a desire to aid pupils in visualizing the cor¬ rect and incorrect sides of important and often prominent issues. Business law, taught by Miss Anna B. Israelite, teaches students about income tax, contracts. Mr. John Caples is the instructor of the commercial geography course which pro¬ vides an interesting background of all dif¬ ferent countries on the globe. These final projects are very good, boys. There is a good lesson to be learned from this book, class. You look happy Murray. Did you get an A?

The combination of classroom work con¬ sisting of demonstrations, experiments, lectures, problems, and recitations all give the students first-class preparation in the sciences. The science department, under the di¬ rection of Mr. Carl Staples, instead of teaching the students only information from the textbooks, has another intention. Since the most valuable phase of the course is experimentation, it is in this manner that the students are given the opportunity to observe and report correctly on each ex¬ periment. This is very good training for precise thinking and also adds an eager concern for obtaining knowledge. However, these things would not be possible without the guidance of Mr. Earle Anderson, Mr. Aaron Kipnes, and Mr. Roman Pucko, who have contributed great¬ ly to influencing Chelsea Senior High stu¬ dents in following scientific careers.

These teachers are well versed in the fields of teaching Latin, French, German, and Spanish, respectively. Employing a combination of grammar, reading and informal discussion, their classes are always pleasant as well as in¬ structive. Not only does the actual drill of grammar benefit the students, but the sup¬ plementary activities supply the colorful atmosphere which adds so much to the in¬ terest of a subject. Aiding in the translation of Caesar, Cicero and Virgil comprises Miss Deasy’s job each year. Along with this, she blends the necessary grammar and creative Latin games together to form vividly interesting and highly informative classes. S’il vous plait, s’il vous plait! It is with this phrase that Miss Connolly impresses her students in French. From her extensive travels through France, Miss Connolly is well acquainted in the politeness of a true Frenchman. Additional information, such as this, supplies a delightful touch to the daily French lessons. Through Miss Severance’s amicable way, she has certainly made German a favorite subject at Chelsea Senior High School. Combining pleasure with study, Miss Sev¬ erance’s classes are never lacking in vitality. Any Spanish student will verify the live¬ ly interest created by Miss McKenna and Miss Spring in Spanish. There is nothing foreign about Spanish to their pupils. A course with either of these, experienced teachers leaves a pupil rich in the knowl¬ edge of the Spanish language, people and customs. Considering all this, it is by a unanimous vote that the language department of Chel¬ sea High is proclaimed outstanding! la classe de francais. Thelma reads very well, don’t you think? 3 My goodness, what a bright class. 53 tStock oan± an d 03oncL Many high school students don’t realize how important mathematics is. In every phase of science, the mechanics of numbers either are an assistance or an essential part of the job. A technician uses some form of mathematics to figure out a complex problem, an engineer’s work is all mathe¬ matics, and a chemist refers to equations in order to satisfy his experiments and con¬ clusions. Yes, all these occupations exem¬ plify the importance of mathematics. We, at Chelsea Senior High, take great pride in our mathematics department which prepares many students for the best colleges and universities in the country. Under the capable supervision of its in¬ structors, the department has enjoyed a position of high rank and prominence among high school mathematics courses. Our mathematics instructors are: Mr. Francis Garvey, Miss Alice Burke, Miss Evelyn MacDonald, and Mr. William Lowell. I’ll admit it is a difficult problem. Does that exolain it now, boys? Does that look like an equilateral triangle to you? How are they doing, Mr. D.? Time out for a favorite A typical commercial course class.

Now more than ever, young wom¬ en upon graduating from high school, en¬ ter the various fields of the business world to earn their own livings. Many attend business schools or colleges to perfect the training they acquire in high school. Whether in the Stenographic, Account¬ ing, or Clerical Course the training we re¬ ceive from our capable commercial teach¬ ers at Chelsea High better prepares us to meet the challenge of the business world. Two required subjects in all business courses are English and typewriting. Miss Cox, Miss Kuhn and Miss H. Malone, see that the students build more than the nec¬ essary foundation in English, the subject that is used in everything we do at school, at college, in an office, and in every-day life. Most office positions require some Here’s the way you do it, Charlotte. typing, and because of Mr. White, Mr. D ' Ambrosio, Mrs. Grosser, Mrs. Fogel, and Mrs. Berenson the girls from Chelsea High are well equipped to meet this need.

Those who plan accounting careers can¬ not fail with the knowledge and help giv¬ en by Mr. D’Ambrosio, Miss Bennett, and Mrs. Malone, our bookkeeping teachers.

From their capable fingers may some day emerge the latest fashions to highlight the newspapers pages of the world. omzn i Under the capable supervision of Miss Mildred Johnson and Mrs. Rebecca Mack, the cooking department of Chelsea High School functions very efficiently. A way is paved for girls as future homemakers and dieticians.. They are taught to plan and prepare delicious and nutritous meals. And remember: We may live without poetry, music and art; We may live without conscience and live without heart. We may live without friends, we may live without books, But civilized man cannot live without cooks.” Is your hem even? 58 Pxintuiq j zjiQxtriizn.t Directing the printing classes is Mr. Barnett Freedman. Under his capable guid¬ ance, notices, programs, report cards and warning cards are printed for the school. The type of printing taught at Chelsea High School is called letter press printing. After graduation a boy may enter a letter press print shop as an apprentice. With the training he has received here he will be able to advance steadily to a top-ranking and paying position in his chosen trade. From Gutenberg to this. The manual training department of C.H.S. is under the direction of Mr. Daniel S. Santry. Any member of the general course is eligible for this class in which everything from knic-knac shelves to book¬ cases is brought home by our amateur car¬ penters. In these classes the boys are taught, not only carpentry, but also the fine art of cabinet making along with the knowledge of the setting up of woodwork machinery. These manual training classes are truly one of the most useful and progressive subjects taught at C.H.S. Wow, what concentration. }inz LAYOUT DEPARTMENT The Chelsea Senior High School can be very proud of the art course given under the expert guidance of Mrs. Josephine O’Hara. Mrs. O’Hara knows that artistry, like all of the finer things in life, must be developed from inside, and she tries to guide her students with that fact in mind. Also, Mrs. O’Hara tries to persuade her students to employ their creative talents. Who knows but that Chelsea may yet pro¬ duce another Leonardo de Vinci or a sec¬ ond Van Gogh. We certainly try! uiu. 60 The music department under the direc¬ tion of Mr. Toltz, offers the student a mu¬ sical background which is divided into two main groups. They are music appreciation and music harmony. Music appreciation gives the student a chance to hear the mu¬ sic of the master’s and also to better appre¬ ciate finer music. The course in music har¬ mony provides helpful instruction on how to write music and study its construction. Both courses are educational and enlight¬ ening to any student interested in music in all of its phases. What are high school boys interested in? Cars, naturally! Here in the school is a course especially for these leds. Mr. Ar¬ thur Hagan is the instructor in charge of conducting the auto mechanics class. Boys, with a flair for the care of automobiles, are given full chance to further their knowl- edgs and skill under Mr. Hagan’s expert guidance. At present, they are enjoying this course, but, in the future, many will find that the training which they have acquired from this class may help them in earning a living. Through the guidance of the three auto¬ driving instructors, Messrs. John Welsh, Ralph Filippone, and Bernard Schwartz, numerous inexperienced students have be¬ come capable, careful drivers. With the students knowing only as much as Mr. Henry McCarthy has taught them in a pre¬ vious course of the basic rules of the road, the instructors patiently add to their knowl¬ edge of handling a car. As a result, the ability of the students in driving is un¬ covered, tutored, and eventually rewarded with driver’s licenses. Must have been a pretty bad accident! Oh, those poor pedestrians! 61 Di uriE d za%zatLon A sound mind in a sound body” is a basic law for everyday life and is certainly practiced at Chelsea Senior High School. The proper methods of retaining health and keeping trim are capably taught by Mr. Henry H. McCarthy and Miss Reba Painter. Exercises on ropes, mats, and ladders as well as softball, basketball, dodgeball, danc¬ ing, and many a form of calisthenics are executed by the eager athletes of C.H.S. If put to a vote, physical training, an enjoy¬ able break in the week’s schedule, would surely come out on top. No homework, just fun! A sense of good sportsmanship is the main objective in the physical education course. This conception of fair play is a valuable asset in the lives of Chelsea’s young citizens. To work and play together harmoniously is a practice that should be employed throughout the world as success¬ ful as it is in our gymnasium and carried throughout the school. Plenty of exercise in this class. Future Red Devils, coach? Chelsea students have, for the past three years, had the opportunity of taking a First Aid Course, under the direction of Doctor William Stone, Miss Reba Painter and Mr. Aaron Kipnes. The most import¬ ant idea of the course is to Save a Life” and to give immediate care to the victim until the doctor arrives. By means of lec¬ turing, demonstration, and quizzes the course is made very interesting, and the information obtained from it has proven to be very useful. An American Red Cross examination is given at the completion of the course. If the examination is passed, an American National Red Cross Certificate is awarded to the student. How can you work with a broken thumb, Peter? Quick, the smelling salts! 63 anaatn nincj GUIDANCE We at Chelsea Senior High School can be very proud of our excellent guidance department under the cap¬ able supervision of Mr. Eli Richman and Mr. Margolis. Among their numerous duties they act in the cap¬ acity of counselors to the students; they help administer certain apti¬ tude tests, make provisions for for¬ ums to be given during the course of the school year and help many students to find jobs for after school. Many high school graduates began their careers with jobs given to them through the school. The guidance department must certainly be com¬ mended on their fine work. Mr. Nathan Margolis UE LIBRARY The library, under the ca pable guidance of Mrs. Ann Tuton, is one of the most indispensible parts of a high school. It is used not only for reference work and the withdrawal of books, but also as a place of quiet study, and is the center of much club activity after school hours. A wide selection of books may be found on the shelves, ranging from encyclopedias and reference books, non-fiction and biography to fiction and many of the current magazines. The book selection consists of ap¬ proximately sixteen hundred books, which are classified for easy selec¬ tion. You may have that book for a week, Karen. Everyone seems to be studying hard. 65 After we have worked hard all morning, a break for lunch is cer¬ tainly welcome. The delicious, nutri- cious food prepared in our cafeteria under the supervision of Miss John¬ son is a delight to all of the hungry students. Hadele, is the lunch that good? k ' W j r f jBa - v ‘v. . HL MraWp � in 66 Is it that good? SOCIETY PAGES Here is a souvenir program, Amelia. JUNIOR PROM The Class of ’57 held its first formal dance in the spring of 1956. In the gym of C.H.S., cardboard palm trees and gaily colored streamers created an atmosphere similar to that of Hawaii itself. Enveloped in fluff and frills, each girl whirled about the floor in the arms of her smartly outfitted partner. A mel¬ odious band sounded throughout the rotfm, as sweet smiles and numerous compliments were exchanged by all. In the midst of this splen¬ dor, a pause was taken, at which time, every¬ one enjoyed refreshments. Immediately fol¬ lowing, the Grand March took place. As the momentous event came to a close, the crepe- paper covered walls were pealed of their dec¬ orations providing each girl with a little souvenir” of a big evening”! Dancing in the dark. salon The regal splendor of our royal officers. They do play well, don ' t they? SENIOR PROM January 25, was by far one of the most im¬ portant evenings for the graduating class of 1957. Amidst snow and sleet, the senior prom was a picture of gaiety and splendor. The gymnasium was transformed into a dreamland of castles in the clouds, cherubs, and stardust, while lovely damsels waltzed about with their debonair es¬ corts. Soft lights, and the melodious strains of the band wrapped the couples in the festive mood of this Loveliest Night of the Year.” The faculty, as invited guests, joined in the festivities, and mingled with the dancing cou¬ ples. Tasty refreshments were enjoyed by all, and added greatly to the fun of the evening. The grand march, highlight of the night, was led by the class officers, and the senior council mem¬ bers. The uniform procession was an attractive and memorable event for all who attended. Cer¬ tainly th e Senior Prom is an outstanding recollec¬ tion of three years at Chelsea High School. Heaven! This is Heaven! [l atz Sait The entire cast and their director. The Senior Play, entitled Date Bait” is the story of a typical Ameri¬ can family. The three Walker sisters and their teen-age problems present a colorful picture which most of us can understand. Police and politics enter into the scene and enlighten the rollicking comedy to a hillarity. The acting is superb and the cast outdo their theatrical expectations. We all wish to congratulate Miss Harriet Malone on a fine job as coach.

She is president of the Pep Club, Junior and Senior Class Secretary, Good Government Day Official, and she participates in numerous social ac¬ tivities. | The exquisite taste in clothes and the lovely way in which she wears them are the reasons why Helene Yeshilian has been elected as BEST DRESSED GIRL. As a member of the junior and senior council, Latin Club, GAT Society, and Honor So¬ ciety Helene is active in all school functions. Sharing the honors as MOST POP¬ ULAR is Frederick Clark, who is an active member of the Spanish Club, Traffic Squad, and Class Vice-Presi¬ dent. He was also mayor and repre¬ sentative in good government. She’s lovely to look at.” . . . this refrain amply applies to Patricia Ar¬ senault who is the BEST-LOOKING GIRL of ’57. Patricia is the captain of the Majorettes and has been seen strutting down the field in all of our football games, baton and spirit flashing high. Topping the poll with two honors is Frank De Patto who was chosen as the BEST-LOOKING and BEST- DRESSED BOY. Frank was our jun¬ ior class vice-president and senior class president and a member of the traffic squad. With Frank’s good looks and smart clothes he is a sure bet for a success in the future. 72 The SENIOR GIRL MOST LIKE¬ LY TO SUCCEED is Frances Leone. Frances is president of the Spanish Club, member of the Honor Society, Science Club, GAT Society, and Pep Club. She plans to enter Northeast¬ ern University and major in engi¬ neering. The most well-deserved honor of the MOST INTELLECTUAL SEN¬ IOR has been awarded to Paul Feld¬ man. In his persuit of the technical course, Paul has found the time to join many of the school clubs and participate as an active member in each. As the MOST ATHLETIC BOY of our senior class, we have James Walker. He excells in all sports; pri¬ marily football and basketball and was co-captain of both teams. Robert Mugford who plays the trumpet and sings popular songs is our MOST TALENTED SENIOR. Robert is a member of the band, Spanish Club and football team. Marvin Terban has been voted as BOY MOST LIKELY TO SUC¬ CEED. He is very active in the school’s social affairs as president of the Latin Club, and GAT Society.

Here in the school we have a functioning chapter of the National Honor Society to which all pupils with honor marks belong. This club, under the direction of Miss Har¬ riet Malone offers a great deal to its mem¬ bers. Noted speakers have volunteered their services as guests at the meetings to provide the educational enlightenment which all of us enjoy. The club members also gain experience and pleasure as drama¬ tists in writing their own skits to present to the members. The Honor Society also has plans of taking educational trips as a group. Truly, every student works hard with membership in the Honor Society of Chelsea High School as his goal.

The Gamma Alpha Tau Society is an honorary math club under the ad- visorship of Miss Alice Burke and Miss Evelyn McDonald. It has for its members students who have achieved honorable grades in geom¬ etry and algebra. This year the so¬ ciety has held enjoyable and enlight¬ ening prgorams to the delight of its members. As is fitting to the purpose of this organization, the members offer their services as tutors to those who need help in math. They have re¬ cently witnessed a geometrical dem¬ onstration which held both teachers and pupils in awe. The club holds a closing exercise which is an annual event, in May. At this banquet hu¬ morous skits and plays are drama¬ tized. Caps, pins and keys are dis¬ tributed to the top ranking students as a highlight to the affairs. J sbatina The C.H.S. debating club under the instruc¬ tion and guidance of Mr. Greenfield is a highly selective group of students, mostly seniors. They indulge in debates with other schools on current prominent issues affecting us all. Some of the topics have been the 8-4 or 9-3 system, should eighteen year olds vote, and the question of rais¬ ing the driving age. Officers in the club are: Phyllis Fineman, President; Harvey Shore, Vice- President; Marilyn Tankle, Secretary; Sandra Sudikoff, Treasurer.

The Latin Club under the very able guidance of Miss Ella Deasy and Miss Agnes Burnett is one of the most outstanding clubs at C.H.S. The maxim that Latin is a dead lan¬ guage is definitely proved false by the enthusiastic members of the ac¬ tive organization. Novel skits, songs, and entertain¬ ment high-light every meeting and make up enjoyable and educational programs. Depicting scenes of an¬ cient Rome, the scholars bring old customes and tradition to life. Pleas¬ ure and learning are combined in the variety of programs and create a gr eater interest in the study of Latin. Affiliated with the Junior Classical League, The Latin Club is an asset and source of pride to our high school. In order to give the French students an opportunity to practice speaking French informally, the French Club was organ¬ ized, and is under the excellent direction of Miss Frances M. Connolly, head of the foreign language department. The club meetings consist of active programs of cul¬ ture and entertainment. French songs, skits and games are presented in an attempt to bring a little bit of Gay Pairee” to the Chelsea High School. All the members heartily agree that it is much easier and much more fun to supplement their knowl¬ edge fo the language from an interesting French Club meeting than from classroom work alone.

The German Club under the able supervision of Miss Severance was formed to create a greater interest in the culture and customs of Germany while getting away” from the formal classroom work. This seems necessary since one must do more than just participate in the required work to study and benefit from a language. The Ger¬ man Club accomplishes this through various pro¬ grams and activities. The students arrange and enact their own pro¬ grams, which vary, from skits to community sing¬ ing. In this way they are able to show their crea¬ tiveness in the preparation of these modern Ger¬ man skits, and at the same time practice class¬ room principles. The German Band is a wel¬ comed feature at every club meeting. The band contributes to the atmosphere, while adding a bit of humor with presentations in a happier mood and numbers of a traditional nature. Each meeting ends with the enthusiastic community singing and the old favorite Schnitzelbank.” In this way the German Club introduces cul¬ ture and gaiety of the German people to its mem¬ bers. 80 The Spanish Club or El Circulo de Es- panol” under the direction of Miss Rose Mc¬ Kenna and Miss Johanna Spring consists of students who wish to know more about the language, people, and country of Spain and Spanish American countries. Before the pro¬ gram begins, the Secretary announces the roll find each member acknowledges his presence with a motto. One of the club’s activities is the Spanish choral group which entertains the club with a number of Spanish songs. Vari¬ ous skits and plays which oortray Spanish life and its customs written by the students are usually the order of the meeting.

Staples, head of the science department, certainly proves that science can be and is fun. Its members through experiments, demonstrations, films, and oral topics learn much about the current happenings in the world of science. Also, in this Atomic Age, when the won¬ ders of science reach even into our own homes, the student at Chelsea High through his work in the Science Club ob¬ tains a sound understanding of the basic facts of many professions in the field of science. All these factors taken together account for the increasing popularity of the Science Club at Chelsea High.

Under Miss Hand ' s guid¬ ance, an opportunity is offered to all am¬ bitious young writers to exercise and de¬ velop their creative talents. In composing the News and Notes” column for the Chelsea Record and in the publication of our school magazine by the students, much experience is gained. From these projects, the fundamentals of journalism are ex¬ tracted. In the process of writing articles, students become acquainted with the es¬ sential knowledge and common methods connected with the field of journalism. In mixing business with pleasure, the club members attend frequent Boston Globe Editor’s Conferences. Numerous well-known speakers on the subject of journalism are often presented as guests at the meetings.

The purpose of the group is to help students develop a sound and independent opinion on World Affairs. In this way it serves not only the students, but the coun¬ try as well, since democracy draws its strength from the wisdom and character of its citizens. Under the direction of Mr. Shapiro, the World Affairs group has planned many activities, such as, a trip to the United Nations Building, as well as, trips to other high schools to hear and meet with officials of all countries. Each year the group attends United Nations Day at Harvard Uni¬ versity. In this club, members have a chance to hear authorities speak on World Affairs, to make their voice heard in current events, and to in¬ vest in a better world.

The Junior Red Cross is a club, relatively new in existence, which has been at Chelsea High only for five years It is presently under the supervision of Mrs. Phyllis Fogle. The club boasts a membership greater than that of any student organiaztion in the school. Anyone making a contribution to the drive is officially enrolled in Junior Red Cross. The duties of the club are in the task of sending gift boxes of such articles as tooth brushes, soaps and small toys, abroad to orphanages and homes. Also the club assists in fund drives. They send representatives of the Junior Red Cross Council to the monthly meetings in Boston to keep informed on Red Cross ac¬ tivities and to exchange ideas. Chelsea High’s Junior Red Cross Club is certainly one of the most active in the league. 85 ' LPsji (2[u!j The athletic games at C.H.S. are enjoyed by all, but everyone is aware that any game could not be complete without the Pep Squad. The members of this organization are recognized at every game by their red beanies and cheering voices. By cooperating with the Cheering Squad and Miss Reba Painter, their advisor, the cheers were learned by one and all. No matter what the weather, one was sure to find members of the Pep Squad at the games displaying their usual school spirit. When necessary, buses were hired to transport the girls to out of town games. Whether the boys were winning or losing, they could be sure that C.H.S. was behind them. A successful dance was sponsored by the Pep Squad, the proceeds of which went to the Chelsea High School Schol¬ arship Fund. We all realize that these many girls must be congratulated on a job exceedingly well done.

The Traffic Squad of Chelsea High is one of the most important functions in the school. The boys, most of whom became members in their Junir year, are chosen on the basis of scholastic achievement and on the recommen¬ dation of teachers. At the beginning of the school year the squad assists the sophomores in locating their respective class rooms. Their additional duties consist of supervising filing between classes, keeping order in the lunchroom, making change in the cafeteria, ushering at assemblies, running errands, collecting attendance, slips, and lending a helping hand whenever pos¬ sible. The squad, under the capable direction of Mr. Romano Pucko, should be highly com¬ mended on the fine job they are doing. 87 ■ 88 89 3ootUt Co-Captain Jim Walker ready to throw another great pass. If spirit and determination were the only factors in winning football games, Chelsea High would have gone undefeated in 1956. Unfortunately, however, this was not the case. Although they fought like the devils that are their namesake, the Red and Black managed to post only two wins and two ties against five losses in their season’s play. In their ' first two games the Red Devils were held to two successive ties by Newton and Malden, respectively. Both encounters saw Chelsea being outclassed early in the contest but coming back strong in the last half. This was especially true in the New¬ ton game in which the McCarthymen re¬ bounded from a two touchdown deficit to know the score at 19-all. The Red Devils next came up against Revere and Somerville, weak sisters in Greater Boston football the past season. Sparked by Eddie Evans in the Revere en : counter and Jim Walker in the latter con¬ test, the Red and Black rolled over both opponents to post their only two wins of the campaign. Chelsea hit the more formidable part of its schedule starting with the Weymouth game. The Red and Black were no match for the subsequent Eastern Massachusetts champs who virtually walked over the Mc¬ Carthymen for a five touchdown rout. The losing pattern continued as the Red Devils were outclassed by Malden and Quincy in succession. Even some of the best work of the year by the Chelsea fron¬ tier, notably tackles Mike London and Joe Kulpa, was not enough to prevent two nineteen-point defeats. The Red and Black came up against another sectional champion, Worcester North, in their eighth game. The Central Massachusetts pacesetters cashed in on two of its own fumbles to score all their points and downed the fighting but less fortu¬ nate Devils by a single touchdown. Chelsea catered i ts last game with Ev¬ erett as fired up as a Red Devil eleven had ever been for this traditional Thanksgiv¬ ing Day clash with the Crimson Tide. More determination, however, was not sufficient as Everett jumped out to an early seven¬ teen-point bulge which the McCarthymen barely failed to whittle down in the dying moments of play. To be sure, Chelsea High did not have a winning season in 1956 in the sense that it lost more games than it won. However, the majority of its contests were close enough to be in doubt up to the last min¬ ute of play. The 1956 Red Devils were not world-beaters; they did not mow down all the opposition as did their illustrious 1955 predecessors. Rather, they were a fighting and colorful eleven and provided Chelsea High rooters with an exciting brand of football marked by clean, hard play at all times. Thus this past campaign, ragged at intervals, was not wholly a losing one for the fans and members of the Red Devils— it was a season filled with all the whole¬ some excitment and fun that good high school football brings.

Coached only by their Captain and four Co-Captains, the eleven girls on the 1956-57 squad faith¬ fully accompanied the boys to each excit¬ ing football and basketball game. In addi¬ tion the girls offer their services as usher- etts during meetings of the Chelsea P.T.A., as well as running their annual dance, the proceeds of which helped to pay for their new uniforms.

At every game their striking red and black uniforms are seen marching down the athletic field. The band members and majorettes with their peppy tunes and high stepping, add a great deal to the enjoyment of the spec¬ tators and to the spirit of the players as they play their inspring music. The band entertains and delights its audience with enjoyable music at every assembly or school function. We gratefully salute the band for the entertainment it has furnished through the year and are proud of the many honors it has bestowed upon our school. First row, left to right: Helen Boscowski.

This burst of relative glory, com¬ ing at the close of the otherwise disappoint¬ ing 1957 season, served to lighten the blow that struck Chelsea basketball in the past campaign. Although they were expected to be strong contenders for the league title, the Red Devils could do no better than post a nearly even seven and eight record. Playing a fifteen game schedule for the first time in many years, the Nectemmen opened with a win over a pesky Arlington five. A close loss to Lowell and two more defeats at the hands of Everett and Somer¬ ville now followed as the Chelsea offense stalled badly. Then, led by Dave Barron and Mike London who combined for 40 points, the Red and Black downed Medford by three points to post their first win in G.B.L. competition. Following a loss to Malden in the last minute of play, the Nectemmen eked out a close decision over Quincy with Lenny Nel¬ son standing out in both offensive and de¬ fensive roles. A loss to a scrappy Revere quintet preceded a close Chelsea win over Lowell which averaged an early-season set¬ back at the hands of the unusually powerful Merrimac Valley group. Chelsea’s low-point for the year now followed as the Devils were handily trounced by perennially strong Ev¬ erett and Somerville. The Nectemmen ended. , this losing trend with a resounding upset : over Medford in their next game. Mike London tallied 32 points and Lenny Nelson ' .’ tossed in a Frank Merriwellish hoop to post! the Devils’ fifth win at the campaign. After losing another to Malden despite a high-1 point performance by London and Jim Walker’s domination from the boards, Chel- 1 sea took the measure of both Quincy andlL Revere to round out the season. Although expectations were not com-ll pletely fullfilled in 1957, Chelsea High per¬ formed admirably well considering its size and the class of its competition. In fact, a seven and eight record in the Greater Bos¬ ton League is more a mark of distinction than a blemish to a school of Chelsea’s en¬ rollment. Let it also be said that although they were somewhat deficient in ability and finesse, the Red Devils showed no lack of either spirit or courage in the face of even the greatest odds. Get the jump, Jimmy. Whose ball is it? Chelsea’s?

Ul In 1956 baseball hit a new low at Chel¬ sea High. Coach A1 Pierotti’s proteges, lacking steady hitting and a reliable de¬ fense, simply could not sompete with the other clubs in the Greater Boston League, save Quincy. Even a better than average pitching staff bolstered by veterans Bobby Ware, Jim Ferri, and Alan Graff could not overcome the team ' s fundamental lack of ability. However, praise must certainly be given The Pierottimen for their courage and steadfastness, even when up against tre¬ mendous odds. Beaten early in many con¬ tests, Chelsea’s baseballers did not slacken their efforts in the later innings, but con¬ tinued to battle until the final out was re¬ corded.

Coach Bernard Berenson’s pro¬ teges, weaker than usual in the field events and suffering from a lack of depth in the distances from 440 yards to a mile, captured only two out of five meets last season. However, two of their three losses were so close that the win¬ ning margin was not posted until the final event or two. Now, with a rela¬ tively bad year behind them, the Red Devil trackmen are ready to start build¬ ing up a new winning streak in 1957.

For this one day the positions of mayor, board of aldermen, school committee, and many elective of¬ fices were assumed by the fledgling politicians. Of course, they were not able to pass any direct legislation, but voiced their opinions on many perti¬ nent issues of the day. They were made welcome at City Hall by the real machinery of Chelsea’s govern¬ ment as they assumed their respec¬ tive duties. A delicious luncheon was served at the Elks Club as a recognization that today’s youth are mature enough to understand the responsibilities of city government.
