Once upon a time, there was in the far west of Massachusetts (to a Bostonian, Springfield is in the far, far west anyway) a community, highly esteemed and venerated, called Classical, which, for meny years, had been a center of the Universe. Then, suddenly, without warning, on September 5, 1956, e hor- rible vestilence struck, er at least it was so viewed by Classical’s older and more critical residents. On that day nearly three hundred Fifty-Niners, headed by Larry, derisively The Pellagre Kid, rode into town and begam to seize control of @ll Classical. Three years later, at the time of this cli- mactic episode which follows, the Fifty-Niners are at their height of power. This is the story of how Classical's valiant Mershall, with the help of his henchman the Deputy, fought to protect the honor of the Fifty-Niners from the wrath of the older residents. Let the curtain rise .. .- just a bit higher please... now for the lights, Brian, = on the swinging doors... ah: The scene is the teachers’ e xchange (Arness Hideaway) at which there is a rather large, noisy, AVE assemblage. The proprietor, ; Y Arness, is wiping off the coun- alll ter. Chester is accompan- ing Annie, Kitty, and Mm.

We've got to think of the record around here; MAJOR (stepping forwerd@ quietly but surely): ‘ We’z sick'n fed up'td dem lazy Fifty-Niners. I allus sez de ‘udn t make out no good nohow; - take dat lazy Baldwin feller, - or Strong. ‘N dey a'’nt got no senze of vslus 'n sich, - nilists, ‘n atheest’s, 'n whoozis whatsists ... dey gotta gO, - evy last o‘tem. CHARLIE (impetuously): and don’t forget that fire they set in the trash can last year, - or the fellow who dropved his . gym bag down four flights of stairs.” MOB: Ya, Yeh! ... DEPUTY: “Wait a minute, Charlie, we never pinned those wraps on the Fifty-Niners (smiling), even though we did try? VOICE: (from rear): Well, what about thet autographed table cloth Ronnie Grant tried to carry away from the junior prom? Whaddaya call that? MARSHALL: “A good try: . . Now look, you folks have any legitimate gripes you can bring them to me and justice will be done. But I don't think you know how much good the Fifty-Niners hawe ac- complished. (claps hands ... smoke begins to rise from large brass svitoon at left of bar. Smoke increases, forms figure, and, to the amazement of those sathered, steps forward, arms : crossed, with vindictive glance, as Larry, The Pellagra Kid, himself. At this moment, Fifty-Niners begin quietly entering through the swinging doors). “I have created a God-out- of-the-machine: LARRY: . Pardon, the History Committee created me, and I'tm out of a spitoon!:” MARSHALL: Very well, but I called you here... LARRY; The History Committee placed me here, - and I'll ave them know that this is the LAST time I enter through _@ spitoon: it's wet in there, (shaking himself). DEPUTY: Five hours unless you SUUterUD vis Sa eee en MARSHALL: (to Deputy, then Lerry); Please! It is most unfortunate, Larry, and IT told the historians never to do it agein, = but they so much wanted to tell their whole story in one short vee ow tell us about the organization of the Fifty Niners. LARRY: Well, first off, our class edvisors deserve a lot of credit. Let's see, there's Mr. Hargreaves, Mr. Mulek, and Mrs. Bale. Last yesr, Mrs. Flanagan was a great help until her unfortunate illness and subsequent death. Then, in 1957, there were Mr. and Mrs. Corbin. As for officers, I'm president, Jim Heggie's vice president, Jane Thatcher's trearturer, Valerie Smith's secretary, and John Gharkoudian's member-at-large. In 1957 Judy Holland was vice president, and Ruth Orenstein was member-at-large. Otherwise, they've been ths same.” MARSHALL: “Thank you, Larry. Oh Chester, could you interrupt your performance long enough to tell us about the music clubs? CHESTER: “Yeh, sure, heh, heh. Of course I'm new here, but we have lots of fine musicians among the Fifty-Niners. Take Desmond Clinton, = don’t know what I'd have done without him. Then, Linda Chalfin and Richard Ouellette won Junior dixtension Scholarships. But the musical interest of the Fifty-Niners is best represented by their part in the Christmas and Spring Concerts, the Carousel, and three years ago, the MIKADO. VOICE: “Tell us about the upper girls’ chorus, Chester, let’s not Weemsiate on this here history! CHESTER: “Well (shyly), girls will be girls. MASTERSON: (coming forward): I'd like to put in a word for the sports; many of the Fifty-Niners were valuable to Classical as athletes: in football, Charkoudiam, Johnson, Mutcherson, Cotter and Webster; soccer, Heggie, Radding, Durocher, White, Smith, Crump, Johnson, etc.; bssketball, Levy, Sakellis, Smith, Johnson, Dragone, and Biza; hockey, Heggie, Duvall, Hallahan, and Dupont; swimming, White, Coffev, Gonzales, Kelly, Jilson, and Halpern; tennis, Halpern, Murrsgsy and Jilson; and bowling, Burati, Baker, Lavoie, and Jilson. The Cheerlsaders were Burzinski, Underhill, Howes, Kober, Dearborn, Shaw, Jennings, Britton, Smith, snd Brand. Thank you.” MARSHALL: Thenk you, Masterson. Now, Francene, could you tell us about the tibrary?” Mm.FRANCENE: “Well, Marshall, really you deserve most of the credit for the new library yourself, - it probably wouldn’t have been re-organized if it hadn't been for your interest in it. From whet I've seen, the Fifty-Niners are a pretty | fair bunch, for they helped me a lot. Leslie Williems, Linda Steinberg, Joan Erickson, Martha Morgen, Narleen Eisner, Ruth Orenstein, Dolores McCullough, laine Podell, Leurie Saxon, Harvey Weisthsl, Marlene Pellett, Valerie Smith, Martha Smith, Karen Romanoff, and Ronnie Grant all lended veluable assistance. And of course Wesley Miller organized and built un the Classical Historica Collection which is now in the library. MARSHALL: “Well, I must sey... ARNESS (now awake): Doesn't anybody wanns drink?” FEMINING VOICE (eagerly): I'll have a marshmallow fluff sandwich and ea glass of vischy wat... ARNESS: = ooph! my stomach! (collapses). MARSHALL (ignoring Arness): Will vou comment, Kitty, on your im- pression of these people? KITTY (smiling): Oh, I'd be sim- ply delighted. Although Mr. Brady hes Student Government this year, I think I was most impressed by their work there. The Fifty-Niners helped organ- ize the French affiliation Club, revised the Student Government by-laws, election rules enc honor society bv- laws, and, of course, worked closely with the P.T?s A. in the Band Uniform Furd Drive. Those Fifty-Niners who served included Judith Holland, Richard Glotno, Richard Levy, Larry Pellegrini, John Durocher, Cerol Riner, Velerie Smith, Jemes Heggie, Richard Willis, Teresa DeRiso, and Troy Murray. I also think that a listing of those who were elected Student of the month is a good indication of who some of the elass' other leaders were: .Phyllis Bailev, Troy Murray, George Sakellis, ; Lerry Pellegrini, John Durocher, and Jim Heggie .. and I guess that's about all I can add.” ANNIE: “Really, I'm surprised that no one has mentioned schol- estic honors. It should be brought out that there are over forty Fifty-Niners who are consistently on the honor roll. Last year, Natelie Herman received the Radcliffe Book Prize, John Durocher, the Harvard Prize, and Yale Kablotsky, the Williams Prize. Moreover, Archie Strong received an award in the U. Mass. Prize Mathematics Contest. This year, Milton Benjamin, John Durocher, Margaret Erickson, Mary-Kay Gemel, Archie Strong, and Richard Willis were Merit Scholar- ship semi-finalists, while Phyllis Bailey, Harold Baldwin, James Coyle, James Fitzgerald, Rahel Gottschalk, Hichard sloth, Natalie Herman, Yale Kablotsky, and Sallv Nystadt placed high. Also, Wesley Miller won first prize in the stste science fair, and Richard Gloth won first prize in the Spenish-speaking contest at Boston. Who knows what honors will be announced tomorrow? Also, I'd like to commend both the BLJE AND WHITE, edited by Barbara Roberts and Linda Johnson, and the RECORDER, edited by Jane Thatcher, Judy Husband, Richard Willis, Genevieve Reall, and Edward Dramin, and their respective faculty advisors, Miss Teresa Boylan and Dr. Jemes Brady MeQuire, for their excellent work this year. MARSHALL: To my mind, = Thank you, Annie, - To my mind, there is no question about the quality and sincerity of the work of the FIFTY-NINERS. I think that... LARRY (interrupting): . . . Excuse me, Marshall, but you've been far too kind already. But I should like to have a concluding word or two. We have worked for the last seversl years with some of the finest and most intensely inspired teachers, de- voted to education for its own sake. Ours was the last class to know Edwin Smith, beloved and respected chairmsn of the English Department. Likewise, all admired the late Leland Smith, many years’ chairmen of the Mathematics Devartment, who died in our junior year, Mrs. Helen M. Flanagen, who died last fall, Mrs. Florence Smith, Miss Ruth Schaffer, Mr. David brown, and Miss Marston. In spite of everything, we realize the great debt which we owe Classical, - the Law’s, the Orr's the McDuffee's, the Hill's, and the Smith's, who hsve made Clas:ical the institution which she is today. This, we can never repey, - but es a token, we say Thank you.

Buckley Assistant Superintendent Assistant Superintendent Foreword Memories Are Made of This, the theme which has been chosen for the 1959 Blue and White, is quite suitable, for although high school days may seem tedious and unrewarding to some stu- dents, all look forward with anxiety and anticipation to graduation which marks the close of high school days and the opening of a new phase of life. However, as June draws near and friends separate to attend different colleges and schools of higher learning, we look back on our Alma Mater, Classical Hig h School, and without doubt recall to mind certain incidents, classes, or even a few words which will remind us of our three all-too-short high school years. The many activities, sports, concerts, friends and faculty members which are depicted in this resume of the school year will undoubtedly be foremost in our recollection of youth. It has been our purpose to record within these pages of the 1959 Blue and White those memories we feel best illustrate a year at Classical High School. Memories of teachers dedicated to the service of youth, HELEN M. FLANAGAN Mrs. Flanagan will always be remembered by her students as a teacher of unusual ability. When she retired in June 1958, she carried with her the best wishes of all at Classical. The Classical faculty and students were saddened when they learned of her passing away in October so soon after her retirement to North Caro- lina. Anyone who has ever known Mrs. Flanagan will certainly remember her in- spiration, her willingness to help deserving students, her cheerful sense of humor, and perhaps most important of all, the way she made mathematics understandable to all her students. EDNA MARSTON Classical High School will long remember Miss Edna Marston. Miss Marston was unusual for she not only taught math so that everyone understood it, but she made her classes interesting with little anecdotes about her childhood. She was always understanding and willing to help. Miss Marston was not one to shun other re- sponsibilities. She took her share of times in the detention hall. Her favorite project was the Junior Red Cross, to which she devoted many long hours. The memory of Miss Marston will always remain with the students who were in her classes. RUTH SHAFFER Classical High School suffered a definite loss when Miss Ruth Shaffer of the Latin Department retired last June. A devoted teacher, Miss Shaffer gave many years of her life in service to others. She was recognized by her students as one of their finest teachers, one from whom they gained both sound preparation for college years, and sincere friendship. Miss Shaffer earned the respect and admiration of her students for her constant display of dedication and understanding, efficiency, and helpfulness, patience and unselfish- ness. She was appreciated by her pupils for the deep personal in- terest which she showed. FLORENCE Q. SMITH When school opened last September, Mrs. Smith, head of the modern language department, was not with us. Students at Classi- cal remember her for the effective way she taught French, German, and Spanish. They remember her also for her pleasant and gracious manner. Faculty and students at Classical sincerely hope Mrs. Smith will enjoy many carefree years to come and will cherish many pleas- ant memories of her days at Classical as a student and later as a teacher. Mrs. Smith provided occasions for pleasant memories among her students and colleagues at Classical.

RODEHEAVER AND MR. HATCH Without doubt, one of the first memories to return to the students of Classical in the years to come will be that of two fine principals, Dr. Joseph Rodeheaver and Mr. Donald Hatch. During each of our three years in high school, either one or the other of the two principals has been available to listen sympathetically to our problems and to lend us a helping hand in solving them. How many of us have not sought advice concerning our future plans from Dr. Rodeheaver, who conducts an interview with each member of the graduating class? Also, how many of us have not consulted Mr. Hatch, who, we all know, has sincere concern for the present problems of troubled students? For their display of a genuine interest in the students and teachers at Classical and for the discipline and guidance they have shown us, we, the students of Classical, will ever be indebted to Dr. Rodeheaver and Mr. Hatch and will cherish pleasant memories of our experiences with them. 13 Mr. William Brady looking up from his over- loaded desk to explain an assignment. Dr. James MeGuire smiling from behind his books at one of his journalists. Mr. Bernard Donnelly proudly standing before sketches of character makeup drawn by mem- bers of his dramatics class, 14, Each student at classical will remember—the importance of English, Our English department, not only is the largest in the school, but is also a select one. The ten in- structors are competent ones indeed, and_ their classes are a credit to our school. In keeping with Classical tradition, various offerings of special classes are presented to our students. Dr. McGuire, a well known tweedy figure instructs the journalism class. Mr. Smith proudly guides his very “special” twelfth grade English literature class and Mrs. Mor- rill teaches the twelfth grade creative writing class. Pupils who elect Miss Sauer’s vocabulary building course receive a better knowledge of the use of words. Miss Dickerman instructs the speech class and of course Mr. Donnelly enthusiastically points the way towards better acting to his future stars. Outside of the classroom, these teachers are busy with activities. Let’s not forget the “pet proj- ects” of our English teachers and the pleasures they Dr. Aileen Wallace engaged in correcting the homework papers of her English class. Miss Teresa Boylan glancing up from a_note- book made by one of her students. have bestowed upon us. Mr. Donnelly does an ex- cellent job of directing Carousel each year. The monthly Recorders, thanks to the marvelous man- agement of “Doc” McGuire are a welcome part of our school life. Miss Boylan is responsible for the yearly Blue and White. Mr. Brady advises Student Government. Mrs. Conniff does a fine job as the junior class adviser and Miss Dickerman guides her excellent Girls Patrol. Let’s not forget Pierdes un- der the fine direction of Dr. Wallace. Of course our Mr. Smith is the department head. Memories of such overheard words as: “What comes first, the e or the 1?” or “I forgot to read the last act of Ham- let” will long remind us of Classical High School. We shall never forget our English teachers and the help they gave us in so many fields. Mrs. Norma Conniff standing, ready to correct the homework papers of her pupils. Mrs. Mabel Morrill pointing out an interesting article on creative writing to an interested listen- er. Mr. Edwin Smith looking up from his pages of notes on literature. Miss Ruth Dickerman pointing out a_ simple sentence structure to show the use of a verb. Miss Elizabeth Dean sitting quietly at her desk studying a paper from one of her students. Mrs. Ericka Corbin, with the flags of the many countries, whose languages she speaks, before her. the achievement of mastering a foreign language, Since our high school is devoted primarily to college preparatory subjects, the Language Depart- ment here plays an important part in school life. Thus many students come into contact with this eight-teacher department. An opportunity to choose among Hebrew, Latin, French, German, and Span- ish is of course a delight to our Classical scholars. Either breezing through or struggling hard, Classi- cal boys and girls will retain memories of their encounter with languages. The Language Department has many busy teach- ers, always ready to help students. In addition to class room duties, both Mr. Fleming and Mrs. Cor- bin are freshman class advisers. Mr. Fleming, too, has another job — he is in charge of the school store. There also is a junior class adviser in the department, our Miss Dean. Miss Rouillard’s post as adviser to the French Affiliation Club is an ap- propriate one, for she has several French classes. Finally, as head of the department, Dr. Frederick is often busy with her extra duties. Miss Mildred Auger busily correcting the home- work papers of her many pupils. 16 Mr. Gilbert Bleau telling an interesting story of beautiful Paris. Dr. Phillip Miller standing before his class ready to begin the day’s lesson. Classical seniors will retain what we hope are pleasant memories of their language teachers. What student who has spent a year with Miss Auger can forget her close and patient attention to detail and the right word? French, German, and Spanish students will remember the easy and warm humor of Mrs. Corbin. Latin students will re- member Miss Dean’s disapproving exclamation, “Tut, Tut!”, and her friendly smile. French stu- dents will remember Dr. Frederick’s love of French literature and art, which she communicated so well to her classes. Certainly fourth-year Latin students will remember with appreciation Mr. Fleming’s grasp of the complexities of Latin grammar. He- brew students will remember the competence of Dr. Miller in his teaching of that ancient language. The remembrance of Miss Rouillard’s quick, bright smile and her willingness to help will return to her past French and Latin students in the future. Dr. Edna Frederick looking up from her French book to answer the questions of her pupils. Miss Irene Rouillard explaining to her French class some basic principles of grammar. Mr. James Fleming asking a member of his Latin class to translate the sentences on the board, 17 Mr. Donald Campbell explaining to his students the events of the week and showing their where- abouts on the map. Mr, George Hargreaves pointing out to his pupils where the Battle of Chattanooga was fought dur- ing the Civil War. Mr. Milton Corbin glancing up from his Prob- lems of Democracy book to explain the principles of our government. 18 the studies of history and government, World History, Economics, European History, Problems of Democracy, Ancient History, American History, American Government and International Re- lations —- this list illustrates the number and diversity of subjects offered by the social studies department. Often taken in the freshman year, World History, taught this year by Mr. Hargreaves, is designed to present an over-all picture of our world and its past. Mrs. Bowen teaches high school economics, a subject that deals with the consumption, the distribution, and the producing of economic goods. Certainly every Classical graduate will remember American History, for it is a subject required for graduation. Undoubt- edly important to the serious history student, Ancient History, taught by Mr. Young, tells the story of the ancient worlds of Greece, Rome, and the Near East. Problems of Democracy, taught by Mr. Corbin and Mrs. Bowen, is concerned with the contemporary prob- lems of America, such as juvenile delinquency, “con- sumer protection,” or the recurrence of economic de- pression. The course is done on a project basis, and the students are required to do written, detailed reports on a_ specific subject. Such a_ project might deal with “The Problems Facing American High Schools.” The department also offers a study of the structure of the federal, state and local govern- ments, accompanied by a quick survey of foreign re- lations. This course, burdened by the weighty title, “American Government and International Relations” is taught by Mr. Hargreaves. This course taken in the senior year and American History taken in the junior year comprise a two-year sequence, new last year to the social studies department. Mr. Campbell’s teach- ing capacity involves two special classes, American History ]1ls and American History C. B. The teachers in the social studies department are certainly active around the school, as well as in their teaching capacity. Mr. Hargreaves is an adviser to the Rifle Club. The Boys’ Patrol has as its adviser that specialist in Ancient History and baseball, Mr. Young. An adviser to the freshman class, Mrs. Bowen helps with the freshman class elections. Mr. Corbin is both a freshman class adviser and an informal counselor to the International Relations Club. Lastly, our debonair and witty Mr. Campbell, as head of the department, has his share of executive duties. Mrs. Bowen explaining the prob- Jems of bimetallism and the op- eration of Gresham’s Law to Jack Levin and Gary Crawford as Harry Jilson, Ronald Grant, Ven- ita Sims, and Bonnie Reimann watch. Mr. William Young looking up from his papers to say “hello” to someone who has just come in. 19 Mrs. Barbara Bowen pointing out to her Areri- can History class, part of the Northwest Territory. and the under- standing of mathematics, Mrs. Julia Bale sitting before a slide rule, a The mathematics department of Classical High necessary tool Ot beep ei so School is a first rate one in all respects. Proof of this are the four advanced mathematical programs offered to qualified students who can handle the extra work involved. Math 2s, geometry, is offered to freshmen; math 3s, algebra, is offered to juniors. Seniors may elect math 4s or math 4ss, whichever program is best suited to them. This entire depart- ment consists of teachers who are eager to guide their students on the road to better mathematical knowledge. Of course, these instructors indulge in extra cur- ricular activities which operate toward the better- ment of our school. Not only is Miss Parkman the head of the department, but she also handles the business of the Recorder. Mr. Andrewes is an ad- viser to the Junior class; Mrs. Bale, the Senior Mr. Arman Jermakian asking the function of Mrs. Julia Beverly showing her class the Mr. George Andrewes standing next to a geo- radius O of the circle. metrical figure which he has just constructed, 20 Mr. Robert Wessman proudly standing before a difficult parabola drawn by a member of his advanced mathematics class.

Mr. Jermaki- an advises our chess club. Mr. Szetela is responsible for audio visual aides. Our Student Treasury, an organization we shall not soon forget, is in the capable hands of Mr. Wessman. Although it is common to hear someone moan “My parabola came out all wrong.” or “How can you find X from that equation?”, the students of Classical will not soon forget their math teachers and the knowledge . . Miss Dorothy Parkman correcting the papers given to them. Indeed, memories of these fascinat- of her algebra classes. ing classes will remain with them for years to come. Mr. Walter Szetela discussing mathematics to interested listeners. as well as the fascination of sclence, Since the recent remodeling of the facilities used in the science department, students have become more and more interested in the fine courses taught. These subjects cover a wide and interesting range. There is biology, usually elected by freshman; physiology, open to junior girls; physics, now Mr, Stanley Mulak observing various pressure open to any erade; and chemistry, offered to Eos seniors. In addition to these classes there is ad- vanced physics, this year proudly instructed by Mr. Lynch. Proof of the interest and aptitude Classical students show in science is the science fair, each year exhibiting projects devised and brought forth by promising students and judged by the faculty members. Aside from being excellent instructors, the sci- ence teachers are involved in other activities which keep them busy. Our science club is under the di- rection of Mr. Lynch and Mr. Mulak, who also ad- vises the senior class. Miss Battis assists with the Student Treasury and Mr. Oliver is in charge of the school lockers. Let’s never forget the experi- ments, the science fairs, or the complaints heard of “Oh, [ll never understand that last experiment!” or “How many bones are there in the human body?” The memories of fascinating science classes will remain with us for years, as will the memories of our teachers who were so eager to help us learn. Mrs. Beulah Towne demonstrating an experi- ment on chemicals to her interested class. Mr. Howard Lynch preparing to switch the gen- erator on to show his class the results of Mr. Aleph Oliver showing his class the way in electricity, which an atom is constructed. Miss Emma Battis looking up to ask a pupil to recite, Our science department with its staff of capable teachers engaged in several branches of scientific study, offers a diversified selection of science courses to the student seeking a well balanced pro- gram. Well equipped classrooms and laboratories intrigue Classical students into exploring the fas- cinating world of science, whether they wish to dis- cover the intricacies of the human body, or the de- tailed makeup of the atom. Always there and ready to assist are our instructors, well skilled on what to offer in the way of study. Memories of our science classes and our fine teachers will long remain with us to help us recall with pleasure our days at Classi- cal in the science laboratories. Miss Eileen Fitzgerald telling her listeners about = t=] human heart. ERs Oe the complicated workings of the Miss Lois Curtis explaining to her class how the human body functions. Members of the advanced physics class watching intently as a difficult problem on the board. is worked out the beauty of art, Mrs. Helene Laramee displaying the artistic signs made by her pupils which are to be found all over the school. The Art Department here at Classical has long been known for its good facilities and excellent instruction. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, Classical students who are seriously in- terested in art, have very often gone on to the better art schools throughout the country. The large, colorful and spacious room will always hold enchantment and prolonged interest for art enthusiasts. Mrs. Laramee, new at Classical this year, teaches a variety of subjects, all of interest to the art student. Art Laboratory, a general course in art, offers art experience with an experimental ap- proach. In Art A and B, which emphasizes School Arts Publicity and Basic Planning, the students fill requests for posters and “visual publicity” for the school office and for the projects of the student body. A study of painting and sculpturing is combined with a more advanced study of art in Art C and D. Engaging in block printing, decorative printing, silk screen printing, and practicing the tech- niques of graphic arts, the students in the Graphic Arts class are shown the way in which man over the years has improved in his attempts at art. Thus Classical art students are provided with a stimul- ating and interesting program. “T think this would be a good place to put the poster,” says Mrs. Laramee to some of her students. 24, the charm of music and song, “All together? Let’s start again and open those mouths,” says Mr. Alfred Jacobs to the choir. The music department of Classical High School is a busy one indeed. Mr. Jacobs, a newcomer to Classical conducts the vocal groups consisting of the Madrigal Singers, the choir, and the choruses for boys and girls. Mr. Jacobs also directs the orchestra, which does a fine job of playing at functions. Mr. O’Keefe directs the school band which has just this year acquired its long hoped for uniforms. Seeing the band members play at pep rallies and games has certainly increased our school spirit, as well as pride in our band. We won't forget the music as well as the musical knowledge bestowed on us. “That was fine,” says Mr. Vincent O’Keefe to the band, as they finish Classical’s school song. 25 the help of typing knowledge Miss Dorothy Porter demonstrating the correct way in which a typewriter should be handled to her class. Many students at Classical, by taking the typing courses offered, have discov- ered the advantages that knowing how to type can give them. These courses, one offering four class periods a week, the other offering two class periods a week, give valuable assistance to students wishing the knowledge of typing. Students know that homework papers can be done quicker and more legibly if typed. These courses are capably taught by Miss Porter and Mrs. Conniff. We shall remember their assistance in learning the art of typing. Mrs. Norma Conniff, ready to help pupils learn the art of typing. the aid of reading efficiency, Dr. Robert Kinder explaining to Suzanne Richter how to get the best results from a chart. Classical High School takes part in the Springfield Schools Reading Program administered by Dr. Olive Niles and Dr. Robert Kinder, who acts as a special consultant. Students who feel they need the course, “Vocabulary Building and Reading Skills,” meet in Room 119 with Miss Chris- tine Sauer. During the first semester, they learn the meaning and spelling of many new words. The second semester finds these students learning to read better and faster, with greater comprehension. ? A course very much like the one just described is “Reading Efficiency,” taught during the sixth period by Dr. Robert Kinder. Another part of the Classical reading program is the Reading Clinic, conducted by Mrs. Mabel Morrill. There, for those who have reading difficulties, detailed, expert attention is offered. Classical truly is fortunate to be able to offer such courses as these. A little known member of the Classical faculty is Mr. John Shea, acting as counselor to a group of boys, among whom is Victor Beaudet. and of course the importance of physical and drivers’ education. Mrs. Miriam Andrewes standing before the bulletin board which displays offerings of basketball, swimming, and square dancing. Of course, not all classes taught at Classical High School are academic ones. Physical edu- cation is important for well rounded interests also, and the gym classes make obvious the part physical recreation plays in our modern lives. Both Miss Cafasso and Mrs. Andrewes do an out- standing job of teaching and demonstrating to Classical girls, the importance of physical culture and activity. Physical education for Classical boys, taught by two stalwart men, Mr. Batt and Mr. Vaughan, is a necessary part of their academic life also. Benefiting by a program designed to develop sportsmanship and physical agility, Classical boys are “prepared for action” in the future. We shall remember the sense of sportsmanship as well as physical betterment that the gymnastics classes gave us. Miss Veronica Cafasso planning the activities Miss Cafasso giving careful instruction which will make Classical girls physically fit. on how to guard the basket. Mr. Henry Batt standing next to the Classical Mr. Donald Vaughn willing and able to assist a Classical student Bulldog, waiting for his gym class to arrive. in improving his basketball game. Combined in the system of teaching boys and girls to become safe, responsible drivers, are two separate courses, each designated to do a special job. The first course taken by all boys and girls is required during their junior year. This is pre-drivers’ education, which aids stu- dents in learning the fundamentals and principles of driving so that these students might have ac- quired all the advantages possible, even before turning the key in the ignition. Certainly the gym teachers do a fine job of teaching students the rules of safe driving. The more popular if not more important aspect of drivers’ education at Classical is the drivers course, capably presented by Mr. Vaughan. Every Classical student knows the agonies of mastering the correct handling of an auto- mobile. This aspect of drivers’ education, although not thoroughly appreciated at times, gives pupils the needed knowledge of the handling of a car and readies them for a job they shall be doing for the rest of their lives. Without doubt, our driving skill will be remembered for years as one of the most important skills acquired in our three years at Classical High School. Mr. Vaughn ready to give driving instruction to Jean Burzynski and Gail Brunelle. 29 Mr. John Freme, now Assistant Principal at Forest Park Junior High School, Miss Ruth Cornell, and Mr. William Finn are always willing to help Classical Students with subject choices and college plans. As a part of his job, Mr. John Freme, freshman counselor, discusses subject choices with parents by means of the telephone. 30 COUNSELORS Students at Classical are fortunate in having three very competent guidance counselors to help them with their choice of subjects, which are neces- sary to complete high school and gain admission to college. Miss Ruth Cornell and Mr. Willi am Finn work with the juniors and seniors, and try to solve problems which make school life tempor- arily difficult. They also keep a bulletin, upon which they post information regarding colleges, scholarships, and loans. Mr. John Freme, who came to Classical in September as a freshman guid- ance counselor, was soon promoted to the job of Assistant Principal at Forest Park Junior High School. Mrs. Albert Bemis, who retired last June, returned to Classical to take over temporarily the job left open by Mr. Freme’s leaving. Although we regretted losing Mr. Freme, who soon became a friend of many students, we were happy to learn of his promotion, and the faculty, juniors, and seniors were glad to see our former counselor, Mrs. Bemis, back at Classical. Senior Paul Otto chats informally with Mr. Finn about his post graduation plans. SECRETARIES In two of the busiest rooms at Classical, 105 and 107. the school offices, can be found the three ladies who per- form a number of important and valuable services, not only for Dr. Rodeheaver and Mr. Hatch, but for the mem- bers of the faculty and student body as well. Our three secretaries, Miss Stone, Mrs. Wright, and Mrs. Sheehan have so many and greatly varied duties that to enumerate them completely is next to impossible. Briefly, then, the main charges assigned to Mrs. Wright and Mrs. Sheehan, the secretaries in the main office, 107, include those of filing the enrollment records of the students, preparing the daily bulletin, issuing tardy slips and passes, and receiving incoming telephone calls. The other office, less crowded with students than 107, is 105, where we find Miss Stone. whose services to the en- tire school are invaluable. Among her many duties are the filing of the scholastic record of each student and the ordering of supplies. She also assists Dr. Rodeheaver in completing college transcripts and employment applica- tions. THe Orrice Aipes—First Row: Anne Whittington, Laurie Sax- on, Ellen Kirsner.

Isabelle Brown, an ex teacher and a trained librarian, is available to assist students during the school day. Paula Grosfield and Norine Cohen help Miss Brown by checking library passes, while Laurie Saxon finds reference material valuable in com- pleting class assignments. CLASSICAL LIBRARY Since every good institution of learning has a library, we at Classical are very grateful to the alumni, and the City of Springfield for helping us to add a library to our school. The library, a form- er study hall, is now equipped with approximately 1500 books, some of which are from the Leland W. Smith Fund, and others were donated by the Alum- ni Association, but in time 5000 books, the capacity of the library will soon be acquired. Helping to make this one of the best libraries in our city, Miss Isabelle Brown, an ex teacher and a trained librari- an is available between 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to help students who choose to use the library in which to study. To assist her in charging, finding and stacking books, a group of about thirty stu- dents, library aids, give two or more periods per week to working in this school library. Located within our library are many excellent reference books and thirty or more current magazines and at present, there is an information file, an occupational file and soon, there will be a complete collection of college catalogs. With such an excellent source of information located within the confines of Classical High School, all students have an opportunity to use good reference books and magazines. Library Aids help students to find materials needed.

NURSE Mrs. Coleman, a registered public health nurse, is always on duty to help ill Classical students. Besides holding this very important job, she is a field teacher for the University of Massachusetts nursing students who are getting public health experience in this area. Lucille Paul, vision tester, examines the eyes of a Classical student. Walter L. Eaton, custodian at Classical for the last nineteen years, and a custodian in the Springfield schools for nearly forty years, retired on March 30. A native of Malone, New York, Mr. Eaton came to this city in 1913 and became a fireman at Com- merce High School, January 10, 1921. In 1926, he became custodian at Balliet School where he remained for twelve years before being transferred to Van Sickle Junior High School. He came to Classical in 1940. Mr. Eaton married the former Alice Trimm of Malone in 1916, and they have three sons, Harry of ‘West Springfield, and Hervey and Richard of Spring- field, and seven grandchildren. Mr. Eaton plans to move to Bradenton, Florida next fall where he hopes to pursue his favorite hobbies which include fishing, sight-seeing, and bridge-playing. On April 11, Mr. Eaton was honored at a testi- monial banquet at the Oaks Inn. Dr. Hill was speaker; Charles P. Morris, superintendent of school buildings and custodians, toastmaster, and Mayor O’Connor, Dr. Rodeheaver, and Philip A. Sweeney, Commerce prin- cipal, made brief comments. The Blue and White joins the faculty, students, and alumni of Classical in paying tribute to Mr. Eaton’s many years of devoted service to our school, and wishes him all the blessings of a rich and rewarding WALTER L. EATON retirement. MAINTENANCE The responsibility for the general upkeep and appearance of Classical High School is en- trusted to the maintenance department. The men and women in this department carry out efficiently duties necessary to the smooth operation of the school plant. Regardless of the time of day, our custodians and matrons are concerned with the physical welfare of the students and the teachers. Whether it is emptying waste baskets, removing clutter, or clearing side walks, the custodians render prompt and efficient service. Among other memories will be the famliar faces of the main- tenance department, matrons and custodians, of Classical High School. Maintenance Department Walter L. Eaton Edward L.

Domnely Mae Regan 3d An off-guard shot of our behind-the- scene workers — the lunchroom ladies. No matter what the time of day, whether early morning, lunchtime, or afternoon, you cannot fail to see the hard-working lunchroom ladies, who are given the mammoth job of feeding nearly one thousand hungry students, although for the most part, their work keeps them behind the scenes. Their day’s work begins early in the morning, when for several hours, their talents in cookery are put to good use. At eleven-thirty, the first mad rush be- gins with the junior high lunch, followed by two even madder rushes, which begin at 12:06 an 12:34 P.M., respectively. When, at last, the few stragglers abandon the lunch- room for another twenty-four hours, it seems that these ladies are about to enjoy a moment of well-deserved rest. Instead, their work continues — washing the dishes, storing ex- tra food, and, in general, restoring the kitchen to order. Certainly it will be very easy for us to remember and very difficult to forget these cheerful and efficient lunchroom ladies. LUNCHROOM LADIES The Lunchroom ladies — Susan Hemsworth, Stella Gceotsis, Mary Connolly, Louise Walker, Josephine Saracino, Greta Sanderson, Lillian Lambert. The lunchroom aides: Firsr Row: Marilyn LaValley, Barbara Crowe, Judith Johnson, Judith Matatall, Suzanne Richter. Seconp Row: Dennis Clinton, Wayne O’Leary, Stuart Siminoff, Paul Serra, Desmond Clinton. 35 csnnmsnmcaessecuassatasssesiaie nats Seniors Lawrence Pellegrini, Valerie Smith, Jane Thatcher and John Charkoudian, looking down on students in the auditorium, CLASS OF 1959 ADVISERS It seems as though each generation inherits the best and the worst of the preceeding generation. That which is mediocre seems to disolve and lose its identity. During your years at Classical you have gained a good measure of that which is best. In years to come you will look back upon this period in your lives as “the good day”. My wish for you is that, in years to come, you will in some way make better the best which has been handed down to you. Stanley J. Mulak Mr. Stanley Mulak I have enjoyed by association with you, the members of the class of 1959. Working with you as your class adviser, I have come to know some of your hopes and dreams for the future. Your years at Classical have given you an awareness of great achievements of the past and of widening horizons that await you. Now that you are embarking upon a new phase of your life, take stock of yourself. Make the most of your opportunities. The coming years are the ones that will determine your future. Set a realistic goal and work toward it. I wish you all a happy and successful life. Julia R. Bale Mrs. Julia Bale Being one of the class advisers for the class of 1959 has been a pleasant duty for it has brought me into close contact with the of- ficers and committees of the class. At all times, I have found these persons to be friendly, cooperative, and able. The record of the class itself is a good one. It should be a guide to the future accom- plishments of i ts members. I hope that the future for each member is bright, and that all dreams and ambitions of each person will be fulfilled. George M. Hargreaves Mr. George Hargreaves 38 LAWRENCE PELLEGRINI President PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE We, the members of the class of °59, preparing ourselves for the future, can now look back upon three memorable years at Classical High School. We leave here with the utmost confidence and optimism. As a result of the fine education we have received and the friendships we have made, we can look ahead to many years of successful living. In this civilization where education is so important, we can never dis- charge in full the debt we owe to our parents, and our city officials for providing us with the opportunity to partake of the fine education of- fered by the city of Springfield. Let us not attempt to thank these people with mere words, but rather with our utmost energy in all our endeay- ors. We are grateful for the fine scholastic background afforded us at Classical. May we in the future years of schooling be further well- guided, and may we all attain our objectives. No matter in what direction the future beckons us, let us always keep the thought of three well-spent years at Classical High School vividly imprinted in our memories.

JUNIOR PROM One of the nicest memories of the class of 1959 will be its junior prom. This popular gala event, centered around the theme of April in Paris, was well attended and greatly enjoyed. Many of the members of the class contributed time and energy to this affair at which all spent an extremely pleas- ant evening. Shown amid the gay couples is the unusual fountain that was part of the lovely decorations. During an intermission the happy juniors enjoyed mingling among the crowds on the dance floor. CLASS OF 1960 Constantly concerned with the welfare of the Junior class are the officers: Paul Scheer, Sally Heggie, Linda Fairley, William Welch, and Susan Grodin, The Junior Class and its officers, William Welch, Paul Scheer, Sally Heggie, Su- san Grodin, and Linda Fairley, have all been busy conducting the various class af- fairs. Among some of the events which highlighted the year were the fashion show called “March a la Mode” and the Junior Prom held in April. Each event was care- fully planned and organized either by the Junior Activities Committee or by the Junior Prom Committee. The Class of 1960 has certainly proved itself able to assume the all-important role of Seniors next year. Many of the problems of the Class of 1960 are ably handled by the advisers: Mrs. Conniff, Mr. Andrewes, and Miss Dean. ROOM 304 MR.

THE FASHION SHOW The fashion show, March A La Mode, was one of the highlights of the Junior year. The various fashions from Haynes’ department store were modeled by members of the Junior class. Narrated by John Anderson of Classical and by Mrs. Gren- heck, the fashion show had a large, attentive audi- ence and at the same time raised money for future class activities. Marcia Anop is wearing a lilac and white check suit with white short gloves. She is carrying a dark lilac straw bag. 19 CLASS OF 1961 Ambitous and active are the class officers: Martin Stackhouse, President; Edward Kominski, Vice- President; Susan Paounoff, Secretary; Joyce Siwinski, Member at Large; James _ Betts, Treasurer. The class of 1961, having attended Classical for only one year, still has pleasant memories to recall. They have proved to be an ambitious and active group, and will probably be one of the finest to ever attend Classical. In the fall, the above officers were elected, amid various amusing, colorful, informative posters. To prove them- selves worthy of upperclassman praise, the class successfully gave a record hop on January 31, in the boys’ gym. With the help of the popular disc jockey, Dick Wood, and tasty free pizza, the dance was well attended and enjoyed by all. Apparently the class of 1961 plans to become a leading, vigorous class, and surely they will have many wonderful memories by 1961. The class of 1961 has the good fortune of having interested, enthusiastic advisers, Mr. Fleming, Mrs. Corbin, Mr. Corbin, and Mrs. Bowen. oO O ROOM 116 “Les bons vivants” Lert ro Ricut: First Row: Marilyn Martyny, Rona Safford, Syliva Fleming, Barbara Crowe, Marion Antiles, Gail Montagna, Stephanie Fantl, Sylvia Gloth.

Linda Johnson, editor, was assisted by Barbara Roberts and Eleanor Spring. Among the highlights of the year was that day early in the fall when the entire staff was pondering over a theme for this yearbook. Suddenly, Carol Jennings murmured, “Memories are made of this.” “That would be a good theme,” ejaculated someone else. The day that the first set of senior pic- tures came from Bosworth’s Studio is one that we'll always remember, for to the seniors on the staff, it was one of the most exciting days of the year; and we'll never forget the hustle and bustle when all the editors were hurrying to have their sections completed before the painters would arrive to renovate the Blue and White homeroom, and we would have to move to temporary quarters. Each year, Miss Teresa Boylan, adviser and co-ordinator of the Blue and White, selects from among the present freshman class about ten students who will join the yearbook staff the following September. These students work on the various sections of the book with senior students. Aside from the editorial staff, another group of students play a part in the production of the Blue and White. These students, members of the advertising staff approach various merchants in the city and ask them to place advertisements, which help defray the cost of our yearbook. The co-operation of these two separate staffs makes it possible for the Blue and White to remain as one of the best yearbooks in New England. The job of designing the cover for the 1959 Blue and White kept Paul Serra and Wayne O’Leary busy for many weeks. 93 “Oh those senior pictures,”! was a common ex- pression in the Blue and White homeroom. Eleanor Spring, Gwen Underhill, and Paul Serra spent many hours setting up the senior section of the 1959 Blue and White. Typists Carolyn Elridge and Claire La Fond were typing all day long during the “rush” season. Edward Lasky anxiously waits for his copy, while Carolyn Dickey deciphers her writing for Claire. Files and more files, but what would we do with- out them? Barbara Roberts and Linda Johnson look through the files of old copies of the Blue and White and find that with the passing of time yearbook styles, along with everything else, under- go many changes. 04, The job of soliciting advertisements for the 1959 Blue and White has been an exciting one for members of the advertising staff. Elizabeth Gorham, Merle Lavoie, Elizabeth Denvir, Judith Holland, Nancy Golding, Stephen Perkins, Bruce Albro, John Batcheller, David Garnes, Natalie Herman, Diann Bruce, and Linda Hosmer. ane To make it easy for students to order yearbooks, each homeroom selects a Blue and White agent who takes subscriptions from the students in his homeroom. Blue and White agents are Nancy MeNiff, Marie Creanza, Lois Payne, Betsy Lee, Adrian Perry, Susan Bux- ton, Margaret Nystron, Sheila MecClennan, Narleen Eisner, Lois Pearl, Rita Goldberg, Joan Erickson, Sally Nystead, Nancy Westerman, Patricia Keen, Barbara Yerkes, Kay Messing, Maureen O'Sullivan, Larry Wolf, Nancy Drohan, Yale Kablotsky, Gary Auslander, Karl Becker, Thomas Greensmith, Arlan Goss, Manuel Smith, Barry Schuller, and John Batcheller. 95 Judy Husband, Jane Thatcher, Teresa De Riso, David Garnes, John Rixon, Kay Stoumbelis, Maryellen Cullinam and Rahel Gottschalk are responsible for writing the front page of the Recorder.

Let’s see... Jane Thatcher was editor; Judith Husband, managing editor; Richard Willis, editorial policy; Genevieve Reall, feature editor; and Edward Dramin, sports edi- tor. And of course good old ‘Doc’? McGuire — who'll ever forget him? — was faculty adviser. “I remember the first issue that year, the spe- cial 110th anniversary issue with the full page illustration showing old Recorders. It gave me a deep sense of pride to know that “my school” had one of the oldest school papers in the country, — of course in the beginning they called it The Portfolio, and later, The Palladium, but around 1888 the name was changed to the Recorder. I recall how thrilled everybody was when Mr. Wessman, the math teacher, purely by accident, discovered the only extant copy of vol. 1, no. 1 of the Recorder, as it tumbled, tat- tered and torn, from an old geometry book in a closet he was cleaning; — I guess Mr. Wess- man gave it to the Classicalania Collection in the school library. “Of course the first issue wasn’t the only sur- prise either, for, as I recall, the editors worked pretty hard to alter the ‘make-up’ of each issue to make the paper more modern. Why, Jane even circulated a questionaire to get suggestions for improving the paper; some of these suggestions she used. But the Recorder naturally always had to be careful to print stories and articles of a caliber consistent with the established traditions of the paper.” For students of Classical the Recorder will always mean a great deal because of its close association with their activities and also, in a greater sense, because it represents so typically the fine scholastic customs so deeply imbued in the traditions of the school which they like to remember. Dr. McGuire checks Cindy’s sports story, and Jim Coffey explains some principles of photography to Ed, Richard, Marc, and Steve. Editor Richard Willis discusses editorial strategy with Wesley Miller, Genevieve Reall, Linda Bowman, Harold Baldwin, Roberta Kimball, Norma Trumble, and Carol Riner. 97 First Row: Shirly Morsky, Georgiana Kasemeotes, Karen Romanoff, Linda Steinberg, and Judi Matatall.

Mary Kay’s poem “Sonnet” and Judith’s “Fire” placed second and third, respectively, PIERIDES Pierides, one of the oldest extra-curricular organizations at Classi- cal, is designed to satisfy the literary and oratorical interests of its members. They have as their adviser, Dr. Aileen Wallace, one of the school’s able English instructors. Being a very active group, Pierides sponsors annually a school-wide short story contest, a poetry contest, and the Phillip’s Prize Speaking contest. The winners of the 1958 poetry contest were first prize, “Immortals” by Genevieve Reall; sec- ond prize, “Sonnet” by Mary Kay Gamel; and third prize, “Fire” by Judith Bleech. Other yearly highlights of the Pierides Club are its form- al debate with the Senate, the Christmas’Party, and the participation in the American International College Model Congress. In addition to these numerous functions, Pierides holds internal debates and invites speakers from within and outside of the Classical faculty to enlighten the members on various topics, not necessarily literary. A few of the more interesting speeches this year were Dr. Frederick’s “The History of French Literature” and Dr. Wallace’s “A Literary Safari.” The of- ficers for 1958 and 1959 have been Genevieve Reall, president; Diane Psilos, vice-president; Simone Krokidas, secretary; Georgiana Kase- meotes, treasurer; and Joyce Taliaferro, program chairman. 98 Barry Askinas anxiously awaits his turn on the floor as Robert Gootzit tries to convince Milton Benjamin, and Richard Willis. THE SENATE The Senate meets at 2:45 on alternate Modays during the school year in room 232 under the guidance of Mr. Bernard Donnelly. All meetings, under the direction of the Program and Topic Committee, are run in accordance with parliamentary procedure. Discussions, in which all the members of the club participate, cover every field of international, national, and local inter- est, and have during the course of the year, concerned such proposals as a State Lottery, A Fed- eral Right To Work Law, and Membership for Red China in The United Nations. An annual de- bate with Pierides, the girls debating society, is one of the highlights of the year. Attending the A.I.C. Medel Congress and participating in the Senate-Tablet debate are also high points of the vear for Senate members. The Senate is a group of boys interested primarily in debating: Christopher Sorenson, Yale Kablotsky, Barry Askinas, David Silverman, Malcolm Jenkins, Milton Benjamin, Gilbert Salk, David Powers, Richard Willis, Steven Perkins, Robert Gootzit, and Manuel Smith, 99 The memory of singing in the Choir will always be an exciting one for: First Row: Dorothy Yarmitsky, Rose LaFont, Franc ine Braddon, Elsie Clayton, Nancy Vester, Diane Psilos, Dolores McCullough, Elizabeth Taft, Elizabeth Gorman, Kathleen Grady, Katherine Benson, Kathleen Sullivan, Sally Stearns, Georgia Kasmeotis, Tamara Posnick.

CHOIR This year will go down in the memories of those connected with choruses as “The Year Mr. Jacobs Came to Classical.” Since this section is made up of approximately two hundred-fifty normal, healthy teenagers, and since he had approximately two days’ warning of his acceptance to this post before the first day of school, he has had a tremendous job to ag to get things organized this year, and he has done it most commendably. One thing that we shall remember about this year is that it never had a dull moment. Those lunch-hour rehearsals of the Boys’ Chorus in preparation for the Christmas Program were filled with excitement as well as music; and the confusion of the final rehearsals! Even though things were not more confused than in past years, they certainly seemed so! However, never let it be said that Classical High School ever put on a program that wasn’t the best, and this was no ex- ception. Out of the chaos of rehearsal came the perfection of performance, with even the most diffi- cult of the numbers sounding beautiful and easily accomplished. With the advent of spring, activity again heightened to fever pitch throughout the school, and no less so in the music department, for the coming of spring meant the preparing of music for the Spring Concert and graduation, and the mad rush was on again. Appropriate music had to be picked out and learned, rehearsals had to be held, and, in the case of graduation, the whole department had to be assembled at Springfield Auditorium and brought safely back to school later for afternoon classes. With all these programs and performances to be arranged and put on, it is easy to imagine and recall some of the exciting and interesting experiences which made this year a memorable one. Contributing to the hard work and good times which made this year so exciting were these groups which make up the music department: the Choir and Madrigal Singers, which are the two most advanced groups at Classical, made up of students of superior ability and all-around knowl- edge of music. Besides these, and certainly no less important to the music department, were the Freshman and Upper-class Girls’ Choruses and the Boy’s Chorus, which include students from all classes who enjoy music and singing. All of these choruses combined to form one great chorus for the two major concerts and for graduation, and the memory of their beautiful music will always be a fond one. 100 there's music in the air as Gail Brunelle, Judith Wheeler, Linda Johnson, Judith Dickinson, Peter Arvanitis, Mr. Jacobs, and Craig Bradley rehearse for a concert, Room 101 resounds every fifth period with the blending of the best voices among students in Classical High, the Madrigal Singers.

Wesley Miller. ORCHESTRA Though small in number, the orchestra of Classical High School is certainly not lacking in enthusiasm and talent. This group rehearses un- der the direction of Mr. Jacobs during the first period every day. At the Spring Concert, the or- chestra demonstrated to all its skill and fine blend- ing of instruments as it played two selections: the first and third movements of “Eine Kleine Nacht- musik”, by Mozart, and “Chorale-Fugue”, by Bach, which added much to that performance. Playing in an orchestra is always good experience for any young musician, and surely those in the orchestra at Classical High School will always value greatly the memory of this year. Band members lend a hand at one of the basket- ball games at Springfield College Field House: Joseph Moriarty, Bradley Gale, Leslie Pottern, David Silberman, Hughes Wagner, Carole Mer- har, Muriel Murphy, Michael Rothschild, Priscil- la Skerry, Diann Bruce. As the Christmas Concert progressed toward a climax, from both sides of the assembly hall two hundred-fifty singers filed onto the stage, Mr. Jacobs gave the signal to begin, and the auditorium filled with heavenly music as the chorus concluded the concert with “O Holy Night.” At the suggestion of Mr. Amerman, her choir director, Marilyn Martyny contacted Mr. Hatch and Dr. Rodeheaver about the possibility of baton twirlers for Classical. They encouraged Marilyn to go ahead with her idea, but added that they could not provide the girls with uniforms because of a lack of funds. However, this lack did not destroy the girls’ enthusiasm. Linda Ross, Karen Bishop, and Marilyn Martyny made their own uniforms, started to practice, and soon were making regular appearances with the band at sports events, 103 a peeeer es Speer: ae 7 . WHEN THEY STRUCK UP THE BAND Just mention the band and thousands of memories come to mind; memories of spirited pep ral- lies and games sparked by the exciting renditions of our band under the fine direction of Mr. O’Keefe. We all loved those “snappy” uniforms that everyone worked so hard to buy even though there was a shortage of twenty, due to increased membership. This year our band fell to work and became a marching band with three majorettes, making their first appearance at the Longmeadow foot- ball game, and they proved themselves even more versatile than in the past, when they were pri- marily a concert band. 104, Linda Ross, Karen Bishop, Marilyn Martyny.

PHES DO Ysera EROU Memories of patrol days will linger with the eleventh and twelfth grade boys, members of the patrol, who maintain order in the lunch room, on the stairs, and in the corridors each period. To be eligible for the patrol, boys must first of all be recommended by their teachers, be passing in all their major subjects, be willing to give up much of their free time and be willing to obey in- structions given them by their adviser, Mr. William Young. Many forgetful Classical students will not forget the services provided by the Boys’ Patrol, for along with many other duties, these boys hold the master keys to the lockers. Mr. Young is the adviser of the Boys’ Patrol and John Du- rocher is the captain of the patrol.

These junior and senior misses are usually scattered in numerous places as each assumes her various duties. Upholding the school regulations is a major part of each girl’s work. The Patrol members are respon- sible for keeping order in the lunchroom, checking passes, and seeing that no “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes” in the powder room. Clerical work in connection with hearing and vision tests is a Girls’ Patrol project. Usherettes for several school functions are Patrol girls. In addition, the girls provide extra office help regularly each day. And what would Mr. Hatch ever do without the Girls’ Patrol? This year, Miss Ruth Dickerman, the girls’ much ad- mired faculty adviser, the officers, Captain Phyllis Bailey, Lieutenants Lois Payne and Eleanor Turnbull, Clerk Beverly Cohn, and other girls of the Patrol have made a fine co- operative, working team as they enthusiastically render service to Classical High School. 107 Serving Classical by spending study periods in the front hall at the information desk are Girls’ Patrol members Janice Kunert and Maureen O’Sullivan.

Co ee a ee 108 CAROUSEL On February 20 and 21, “Panda-Monium” broke loose in the Classical High School Audi- torium. “Panda-Monium” is the title of the 1959 production of Carousel. The plot concerns a panda (large, upright variety) that, like Mary’s little lamb, goes to school and observes the conflicts with a few typical, high-school students. The highly imagina- tive script was written by Kathleen Grady, Karen Messing, and Susan Lysik under the supervision of Mr. Bernard Donnelly. The leading characters in the fantasy were Ken, a typical school boy, played by Deborah Lindberg; the panda, played by Yale Kablotsky; and Felicia, the girl Ken falls for, played by Tamara Posnick. The entire cast did an excellent job in putting on the difficult production. Many people, besides those who appear on stage, are responsible for putting on a show such as this one. Deserving of much credit are Assistant Direc- tors, Robert Gootzit, and Susan Lysik; Costuming, ae Nancy Goodman; Make-up, Marion Stenta; Publi- BONE OTe Ne CA city, Rosalind Koitz; Lighting, Brian McCook; Stage Design, Barry Schiller; Stage Manager, Ron- ald Grant; Blocking, Gail Dorman; Bus Man, Roberta Kimball; and Music, James Potter. The months of work that the cast and committees did on “Panda-Monium” made the performance one Pauline Chapdelaine, Deborah Lindberg, Carol Shelasky, Malcolm Jenkins. which will be long remembered by Classical High School.

EXECUTIVE BOARD The Classical High School Parent-Teacher Student Association endeavors to promote a closer and more friendly relationship between Classical students, their parents, and their faculty instruct- ors who do much to make high school days memorable ones. This very active organization is the sponsor of many school activities. An evening which students always look forward to each year is the open house night at which time students and their parents have an opportunity to hear what lies ahead of them for the school year. We'll never forget how valuable those college conferences were to the juniors and seniors. At this time these students and their parents had an opportunity to talk with Dr. Rodeheaver, Mr. Hatch and the counselors about their college plans. The pa- rents who were connected with the P.T.S.A. food sale and rummage sale will remember the occa- sion as one well worth their time, for the money was used for the purchase of books for our new school library, for band uniforms, and for six scholarships. Another interesting P.T.S.A. function is the Activities night held each May. We’re sure future Classical students and their parents will hold this as a “night to remember.” The Executive Board is composed of parents, who are the officers of the organization, faculty representatives who express the ideas of the teachers, and student representatives who are elected to represent their organization and to report back to it on the activities of the organization.

JUNIOR RED CROSS The Junior Red Cross is an active organization inside and outside Classical High School. Inside the school, the Junior Red Cross annually conducts a fund raising campaign in November and during the year entertains the Inter-Hi council. Outside the school, the Junior Red Cross contributes funds to the South End Community Center, Monson State Hospital, the Service Fund, and others. Under the sponsorship of Miss Edna G. Marston, the Junior Red Cross does much to make happy memories in the lives of the less fortunate. On January 26, 1959, Mrs. Julia Beverly received the sponsorship of the Junior Red Cross from Miss Marston. The Junior Red Cross is sorry to lose Miss Marston, but we consider ourselves fortunate in having Mrs. Beverly as our new sponsor. The officers are Leslie Ann Williams president, David Glass vice president, Eleanor Turnbull secretary, and Norman Metzler treasurer. 112 The officers are Eleanor Turnbull — see- retary, Leslie Ann Williams president, Norman Metzler treasurer, and David Glass vice presi- dent. Remember the fun we had making those friendship kits? Barbara Yetwin, Russel Jacques, Sally Eldredge, and Carolyn Eldridge do. Faculty adviser Milton Corbin, President Jean Burnett, and Program director Joan Davidson will have pleasant memories of the 1958-1959 Inter- natonal Relations Club. One of the programs I.R.C. members will re- member was the very interesting and informative talk given by Mr. Bleau of the language depart- ment. He even dressed in Mexican Clothes for the occasion and danced around. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Members of the International Relations Club, the largest and perhaps the most active of all the organizations within Classical High School, will have pleasant memories of the 1958 and 1959 season. The membership, which is open to the entire student body, is composed of students who are interested in foreign countries and customs of the people living in these countries. Each year, the main function of the club is to bring to Classical many interesting speakers who, themselves have become authorities of some particular foreign country. Most of the speakers at one time lived in the country they talked about, or they had recently visited the country. Also. when an outstanding speaker such as Dr. Frederick Driftmier of the South Church comes to speak to the club, an assembly is called so that the entire student body might have the opportunity to hear the talk. Aside from its regular club meetings, the International Relations Club sponsors an annual trip to the United Nations Head- quarters in New York City. Those students that take this trip have an excellent opportunity to increase their knowledge of foreign countries by talking with the U.N. guides. Many of the outstanding speakers that I.R.C. members will long remember are Mrs. Tabackman, who spoke on South America; Mr. Bleau, who told us about Mexico;: Dr. Driftmier, who told us about his very interesting trip to Russia; Dr. McGuire and John Sames, who talked about Ireland: and of course, Classical students will all remember Eleanor Turnbull’s informative talk on the Brussels World’s Fair. 114 % ARLAN GOSS 4 jh Yf Yj JOHN SAMES AT MeGUIR ELEANOR TURNBLIL A | ,” ‘a e t 4 OF .

FRENCH AFFILIATION CLUB Members of the French Affiliation Club remember with pleasure the fun and excitement of corresponding with L’Ecole Technique de Jeunes Filles in Le Havre, France, and the fascinating package the French girls sent containing among other articles, a chess set made in a ceramics class. Our club sent two packages to France, one on our extra-curricular activities, containing such items as football and election posters along with a letter of explanation, and one on our studies, contain- ing a folder of compositions from various English classes, and other samples of the work done in an American classical high school. The highlight of the year was the talk of Mrs. John Martineau, a French teacher at Smith College, on December 3. Mrs. Martineau has been an instructor at Smith for the last six years.

Even though some of the members couldn’t understand her, for knowledge of French is not required for membership in the club, it was a memorable experience for all.

CLASSICAL SCIENTIFIC ASSOCIATION Future scientists? The Classical Scientific Association, which recently evolved from the Physics Clubs, has among its members many scientifically minded students at Classical. This club, which has a large freshman membership, is made up of tenth, eleventh and twelfth grade boys and girls and their physics-teacher-adviser, Mr. Stanley Mulak. The club meets every other week in the recently renovated physics laboratory where the members have an opportunity to experiment and do work beyond that which they are able to do in ordinary class periods. Many of these students, use club time to prepare projects for the Classical Science Fair which was held on March 31. 118 Infra-red radiation has captured the attention of Gerald Seigel, Alan Woodbury, Carl Alsing, and David Tanner. Carol MacDonald, Sheilah MacLennan, Karl Becker, and David Bachman experiment with the effects of low pressure on boiling point. Elliot Stern, Dennis Holt, Nicholas Elsberg, and Raymond Roy measure the effects of high tempera- ture on organic matter. 119 Chess stars, Malcolm Jenkins and Nicholas Elsberg seem to have captured the attention of their fellow club mem- bers, Joseph Piecuch, Milton Benjamin, Paul Dyba, Art Greenberg, and James Fitzgerald. J HESCHESSTGLUB The Classical High School Chess Club was organized several years ago to give students inter- ested in chess an opportunity to learn more about the game, and to enjoy competition. The mem- bers do not only compete among themselves, but with other schools as well. Under the able direction of Mr. Jermakian the club meets every Tuesday in room 203 and is one of the most active organizations in Classical. The officers of the club for this year are James Fitzgerald, presi- dent; Milton Benjamin, vice-president; Joseph Moriarty, secretary; and John Rixon, treasurer, Members of the Chess Club will always remember the delightful, if sometimes hectic Tuesday after- noons they spent competing in room 204, First Row: Nichol as Elsberg, Ronald Zacher, Milton Benjamin, Malcolm Jenkins, Marion Jenkins.

AUDIO - VISUAL CLUB It is without doubt that we say that every Classical High School student and faculty member will remember with gratitude that Classical High School had a very active and efficient Audio-Visual Club during 1958 and 1959. A group of about thirty boys from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth -grades, along with their ad- viser, Mr. Szetella, compose this service organization. The members of the Audio-Visual Club operate the mov- ing picture projector, run opaque projectors, and adjust the microphone in the auditorium. They are of invalu- able service to teachers and help to make students’ classes more meaningful. Members of the club will not easily Always on the go! Audio-Visual Club members Rich- ard Hickson and Brian McCook transport a_ pro- forget the hours of their free time they devoted to this jector to the assembly hall. work. Keeping students and faculty members informed of Classical activities is a job J. Wesley Miller has taken over. Upon entering the front corridor of Classical High School, a visitor un- acquainted with our school would find many displays which would inform him of activity both in and out of school. The Art Department, under the direction of Mrs. Laramee, makes posters which help to acquaint us with such activities as the Science Fair, The Band Concert, and the P.T.S.A. Rummage and Cake Sales. The guidance counselors keep a bulletin outside of their office upon which they post notices from various colleges and information of scholarships. This guidance bulletin is of particu- lar interest to juniors and seniors. A senior student, J. Wesley Miller, keeps a bulle- tin in the front hall upon which he puts information about the Classical faculty and students past and present. Miss Sauer keeps the press informed of activity at Clas- sical. With this realia, Classical students are always aware of school activity. Classical in Action! All hands up!

STUDENT LEADERS The duty of a student leader is to assist the gym teacher during classes. Each leader is assigned a squad of six to ten girls. Her responsibilities include check- ing her squad for clean gym outfits on inspection each month, leading exercises at the beginning of class, and acting as referee at games. She is also responsible for the general conduct of her squad. The physical education grade which the student leader receives is based on her ability and success in carrying out these responsi- bilities as well as on her actual athletic skill. 126 G.A.A. The Girls’ Athletic Association of Classical High School was very active this year, working on many athletic and fund raising projects. Under the supervision of Miss Cafasso and Mrs. Andrewes, the officers held meetings with the council during second homeroom periods on Mondays. The council was made up of two representa- tives from each of the three classes. Among the projects this year were the annual interclass apparatus meet in November and the interschool basketball playday in February. Both events were very successful. For fund raising, the girls sponsored a candy bar sale. Each girl was re- sponsible for selling twenty-four bars. In the spring, the G.A.A. held its annual awards assembly and also the annual picnic and outing. These events, in addition to the other G.A.A. actvities, provided many happy memories for all the members of the organization. y happ) g G.A.A.

Since the girls had already learned the rules of the game in gym class, it was possible for the after- noon sessions to be devoted to intramural games. Both Miss Cafasso and Mrs. An- drews supervised the games which were always played between well matched teams. At the end of October, a team was chosen to participate in the annual Field Hockey Plat Day at Forest Park. The team from Classical made a very good showing at this event.

ICE SKATING A great many girls from Classical took advan- tage of the indoor skating at the Coliseum in West Springfield this winter. Each Monday afternoon the girls went by chartered bus to the Coliseum to spend an hour skating just for enjoyment and to learn a little figure skating at the same time. Miss Cafasso, the adviser, and a very good skater, offered the girls instruction and pointers on how to do various spins, turns and jumps on skates. All the girls agree that they were better skaters at the end of the winter than they were at the beginning and that they will have memories of the fun they had learning to skate. Ann Googins and Muriel Bloom demonstrate their figure skating skills, 131 Jean Burzynski flies on the rings with perfect form.

Afternoon classes in apparatus served a double purpose. Girls who wanted to improve their work in class had a chance to prac- tice, and girls who enjoyed this type of activity could use these afternoon sessions for recreation. Both Mrs. Andrewes and Miss Cafasso were present at the afternoon sessions. To climax the apparatus work, the G.A.A. sponsored an interclass contest. Each class was represented by a team of six girls. The freshman team included Barbara Zaleski captain, Pauline Chapdelaine, Linda Freedman, Dona Giberti, Barbara Mirkin and Ronna Safford. On the junior team there were Diane Bertrand, captain, Gail Christe, Polly Couri, Careen Godfrey, Sally Heggie and Michelle King. The senior team consisted of Joy Shaw captain, Jeanne Bertrand, Nancy Brit- tain, Linda Burnham, Jean Burzynski, and Kathy Green. The Class of 1959 won the trophy again as they had won it in their two previous years at Classical, These faithful cheerleaders have been loyal rooters of Classical teams, win or lose: KNEELING: Jean Bur- zynski, Alva Dearborn, Joy Shaw, Jill Howes.

This regular squad, with substitutes Valerie Smith, Susan Brand, Nancy Brittain and Susan Grodin, rooted for our football team and cheered our basketball team to many victories. 134. CHEERLEADERS Behind the team all the time were our cheer- leaders. Whether playing away or at home, our basketball and football players were sure of having at least eight loyal rooters in the stands. During the basketball season the cheerleaders went to out of town games in Stafford Springs, North Adams, and Amherst. The longest trip was, of course, the most exciting. The Peter Pan bus, carrying the players and the cheerleaders, pulled away from the front of Classical and headed for North Adams right after school. After a two hour ride, the group of hungry Classicalites stopped at a North Adams restaurant for a hearty meal. Although the game was one of the very few that our team lost, spirits were high and the boys and girls had a good time talking and singing on the way home. We returned to Classical at about eleven-thirty, and it was very easy, the next day in school, to pick out the sleepy looking students who had taken the trip. Aside from cheering at pep rallies and games, the cheerleaders sponsored two dances. The first, in November, was in honor of our football team, the second, in April, in honor of the basketball team and the newly chosen cheerleaders. The pro- ceeds were put into a fund for new basketball cheering uniforms which the girls hope to have in time for the next basketball season. The girls also had a food sale at the November meeting of the P.T.S.A. Teachers and students donated food, every bit of which was sold. In late March cheerleading tryouts started. As usual a very large number of girls turned out, each with hope of becoming a Classical cheerleader. Practice and elimination sessions were held for six weeks, at the end of which ten happy girls were new cheerleaders. The girls on the squad have happy memories of this year as they watched school spirit heighten. PEP RALLIES On the morning of a rally, the cheerleaders would be at school early, decorating the stage with posters and blue and white streamers. The rallies were varied with new cheers and songs, but the most startling differences were the unusual costumes which the girls rigged up for some of the rallies. On Halloween, the costumes consisted of burlap At it we g0, go, go, and fight, fight, fight, we're sure to win this game tonight.” Carol Jennings, Gwen Under- hill, Sally Heggie, Karen Kober, Joy Shaw. grain sacks, tall witch hats. and old brooms. one of the mid-winter rallies, the girls dressed up as snowmen and, after doing several cheers, they sang a made over version of “Winter Wonderland.” On two occasions eight boys were recruited to aug- ment the squad. Since these boys were so popular in their cheering debut, they appeared again. This time they were wearing football cheering uni- forms and they had a large part in the rally. With the help of the band, the cheerleaders managed to get quite a bit of response from the Clasical stu- dents. The spirit created during these memorable rallies by such cheers as “Beat, beat, beat that other team” was surely responsible, at least in part, for the successful performances of Classical teams. Mickey Posnick, Jimmy Landis, Marty Fisher, Mike Rubin, and Doug Duval help spirited Jim Johnson with a “Team Fight.” “Beat those Beavers, Bulldogs!” Jean Burzynski, Susan Brand, Gwen Underhill, Sally Heggie, Nancy Brittain, Susan Grodin, “Beat, beat, beat that other team!” Alva Dearborn, Gwen Underhill, Jill Howes, Jean Burzynski, Sally Heg- gie, Karen Kober, Carol Jennings. 135 1958 TRACK TEAM SeAteD: Charles Cobb, Elliot Stern, David Bresler, Constantine Milionis, Robert Weber.

TRACK 1958 Although the 1958 Classical track team failed to live up to its expectations, the season was not altogether a total loss. The Bulldogs were able to win only two meets during the season but they came through with top performances in quality and such stars as Lawrence Pellegrini and Kenneth Hall. Key men on the team were Pellegrini, Hall, Robert Whitelaw, John Ley, and Robert Dragone. “Have feet, will run,” says Larry Pellegrini.

The Bulldogs handed defeats to Monson, Ludlow and West Springfield. The Bulldogs, in two meet- ings with the West Siders, were victorious twice on shut outs. The Bulldogs also beat the Monson team and held Ludlow to a scoreless tie. The success of the 1958 season was due to the fine performances of several of the team members such as Bill White, Peter Yankowski, “Chip” Milroy, Pat O’Connor, Paul Scheer and the All-City candidates Chuck Hulton, Richard Guzowski and James Heggie.

Despite this impressive start, the team was beaten by Trade on a lucky touchdown. Rebounding from the Trade loss, the team played a terrific defensive game against the powerful Lancers of Longmeadow. The Lancers’ offense constantly threatened Classical’s goal, but the Bulldogs successfully repulsed them. Classical fought an uphill battle and held their tra- ditional rival to an 8-8 tie. The Bulldogs were at their peak for the Palmer game because of a disappointing loss to Southing- ton, Connecticut. The team could do nothing wrong against Palmer as they piled up a 36 point shut- out. In the final game of the season, Classical ran wild over the Commerce Red Raiders. Until the Bulldog’s second string was put into the game, the Red Raiders were held scoreless. The final top- heavy score was Classical 38, Commerce 14. The performances of the football team were gratifying to coaches Henry Batt, Leo Santucci, and William Young and to all the Bulldog’s foot- ball fans. A team effort was the reason for the success of Classical.

Through the efforts of highscoring captains Tom Gon- zales. and Joe Halperin, and newcomers, Dennis Holts, and Mike McDonald, the mermen com- piled a record of seven wins and three losses, a second place in the Western Massachusetts Cham- pionships, and eighth place in the State Championships. On January 23, the Classical mermen met the undefeated Technical High swimming team. The Bulldogs led through most of the meet. Before the last event began the score stood at 38-32 in favor of Classical. Then, on the last, which was the Freestyle Relay, the Technical swimming team defeated Classical and took the meet by a slim margin. The final score was Tech 39 Classical 38. Many records were broken during the course of the season, such as Dennis Holt’s time for the 200 yard freestyle, 2:16 minutes, and Stuart Finlayson’s time for the 100 yard breaststroke, 1:14 minutes.

BASKETBALL The hopes of the Classical High School basketball team have been very high this season. The Classical hoopsters, after losing the preview to Tech, promptly won four straight games, includ- ing a hard fought 61-58 triumph over Tech. The high point of the early games was an 81-46 bombing of Stafford Springs. Rebounding from an upset by Chicopee, the Bulldog cagers won four straight games, including important Interschool games. Classical conquered Cathedral, Commerce and Trade in rapid succession to retain a firm hold on first place. Center John Cannon and forward Jimmy Smith emerged as consistent high scorers for the Classical team. The students gave the team excellent sup- port at the home games and this loyalty contributed much toward a winning season. As the second round progressed, it was evident that Classical would have pressure on it all sea- son. The Bulldogs lived up to expectations by beating Tech, Trade and Longmeadow. After losing a high scoring and wild game to Drury, the Classical Courtmen beat Cathedral and Ludlow. The emergence of George Sakellis as the school basketball hero spurred the Classical hopes to victory. The second game with Commerce was a disappointing loss which left the Raiders in a tie for first place with Classical. The team finished out the regular season with an easy win over Chicopee. The playoff game for the Interschool title was a tense and exciting game all the way. The Bull- dogs led through most of the game with Cannon having 17 points at half-time. However, it was just not our year to win as Commerce won this close one by a score of 59-57. The basketball team of Classical has made this a year to remember for the students, the faculty and their many supporters. Always they fought hard and never gave up until the final buzzer. Coach Donald Vaughan and the team will always remember this fine season. 145 DRAGONE drives in for a lay up CALLAHAN about to shoot 146 JUNIOR VARSITY MEMBERS Richard Phillips, Thomas O’Brien, Stephen Roberts, Ronald Fountain, Arthur Abrams, John Odjerna, Hughes Wagner, Carl Sutler, Laurence Sims, Richard Callahan, Stephen Hurd, Alan Eddy, Rockland Genza, Ralph KNEELING: Coach Richard Zahner, Gregory Stoddard, Donald Rose.

The Bulldog nine finished the 1958 season with a 6-10 record. Chuck Hulton paced the batsmen with a .333 bating average. Jim Smith, a transfer to the Junior Class, and Dick Vigneault led the pitching staff. The Bulldogs were defeated by West Springfield, South Hadley, Commerce, Longmeadow, and Amherst. The “Young” men were victorious over Cathedral, Tech, Somers, and Trade. The week all of us will remember was the one in which Classical faced Cathedral, Somers, and Tech. On May 26, the Bulldogs were out to “murder’’ the fine pitching staff of Cathedral. It was a touch and go battle with Classical getting four out of their eight hits in the eighth inning and handing Cathedral a 3-2 defeat. On May 27th, the Bulldogs could do nothing wrong, their hitting, fielding, and pitching staff were undoubtedly at their peak and had handed Somers a 13-2 trouncing. On May 28, the Bulldogs were out for revenge, because of their 11-2 loss to Tech. George Sakellis sparked the Bulldog late inning rally with a clutch hit driving in the winning run.

CREW 1958 The 1958 Classical crew scored its biggest victory of the season on November 1, in defeating the Boston University freshman on the one mile race course on the Charles River. Classical took the lead from the start of the race and increased their pace toward the finish. The race was an important victory for the Bulldogs, as it showed they could beat a big and powerful crew.
