Yes, here indeed we were bouncy, bubbly, innocent, swaggering freshmen all set for our grand debut in the high school circuit. But where was the fanfare? “Whaddya mean we’re just another bunch of dumb freshmen??? We’ll show . . . and “show them’’ was exactly what we proceeded to do . . . just how dumb we really were. First point of business was correcting this situation ... we had elections. Chris Lavelle emerged as class president, Meg Ball as vice-president, Brigid Ball as secretary, and Joe Daniels was handed the first whip and chair in preparation for the battle with that fanged monster the class treasury. Ah, poor innocents! A four-year battle had just begun, with the “fanged monster” taking us by surprise right from the start. It all began the day we were herded into the auditorium. (Hear that. Senior? They want us . . . nyaaah!!”) 20 Dauntless, we sprang back from this initial shock with renewed vigor. We held out first dance. No further comment. Let’s not degrade ourselves too much, though. We had our good points. The French Club was created (under the direction of Mr. Edward Philbin), and a gastronomical miracle occurred we survived our first French Club banquet. Bruce Lynskey, Judy Grealis, Karen Paulino, and Carole Janda made our acting debut in “Up the Down Staircase,’’ and a different star was born. Brendon Burgwinkle made the varsity bas- ketball team under coach Tom O’Connor. Despite our young Ignorance, we took our first stumbling steps that year, and discovered we could walk. Gee. will ' ya take a look at them there dumb freshman talk about dumb they don ' t know nothing! Such were the comments to be heard in the corridors during September. 1970. The source of the sardonic comment.s?Why, none other than the now worldly wise class of 1973. After all. we were sophomores! No more last-rung-on-the-ladder for us. no way! With proper disdain for our inferiors, we decided to show them (plus those snooty juniors and seniors!) just how an election should be done. Brendon Bur- gwinkle was hailed as our new leader, backed by an equally fearless, dedicated, trustworthy (modesty prevents any further elaboration) staff; ' ice-president. Meg Ball; Secretary. Brigid Ball; and Treasurer Gary Innamorati. Yep, we had no trouble in leaving those freshmen awe struck. It was the junior and senior classes that posed a problem. They simply refused to acknowledge the fact that we were better than they were. However reluctantly, the decision was made to put them in their place, for their own sakes. Really, such self-delusionment on their part was only hurting them! We planned — we waited — and the day arrived. Interclass dramatics. The ultimate weapon — our class play was revealed in all its splendor before a capacity audience. Absolute silence reigned as the little white envelope containing the awards was handed to the announcer. A crinkle of paper, a slight cough, and then . . . “Best Actress — Karen Paulino, Class of 1973!” “Best Actor — Bruce Lynskey, Class of 1973!” SOPHMORE YEAR Brendon Burgwinkle ' s basketball prowess had our opponents trying to convince Ralph Nader that he should be banned as a devasting threat to human sanity (theirs) . . . The appalling rumor that the class of 1973 had developed lary- ngitis was squelched with the additions of Brigid Ball, Meg Ball, Linda Card, Kathy Gibbons, and Karen Kamataris to our cheer- leading troupe; and for good measure, we decided to add a few sophomore girls to the twirling section: Carol Kilgour, Mary Beth Kittredge, Maggie Parker, Chris O’Toole, and Cheryl Soldi. So many unforgettable, historical and earth-shaking events were crowded into those scant eight months . . . The scoring of the first goal and also the first win in the history of the girls field hockey team . . . “Best Play — Class of 1973!!!” To this day, the glorious victory of the class of 1973 is extolled. The words, “Egad! What a Cad!” are still spoken in hushed reverence in memory of that night. Now, once one has attained the position of top dog, it is generally required that the right to be there be continually re-proven. We obliged. The all school play, “The Mouse That Roared” featured a prima- rily sophomore cast. A tight class schedule prevented our opening on Broadway. Due primarily to the outstanding intellectual development and oratory prowness of its members, our debate team had a winning season. Yes, that sophomore year was indeed a memorable one . . . our presence was felt in ever-growing circles: Chris Lavelle earned Honorable Mention from the Midland League’s list of football greats . . . r % 1 Jtf 1 ' jiftiiiyJ 4jrl 1 jF 1 ■ — ' ta ( 1 t ; . We started our junior year of high school with the anticipation that we were going to be the second oldest class in Clinton High. Although we were only juniors, the large ma- jority of our class playing sports were seeing a large amount of varsity action. The first major occurance was the election of our new class officers; Brendon Burgwinkle be- came our president, Brigid Ball was secretary, Chris Lavelle was our treasurer, and Meg Ball received the vice-president seat. We received our class rings in late October and began discussing our first major event — the homecoming dance. We called it “Moondance” and held it on No- vember 13, in our high school cafeteria. After much debate and heated discussion, we hired the Dirty Rye Band for that evening — We participated in the Interclass Dramatics in early December capturing three of the five major awards for our memorable performance of “Snowy White and the Dwarfs.” After returning from our Christmas holidays, we began planning our biggest class function to date . . . the Junior Prom. We called the big night “Precious Few” and danced to the rock music of Expansion. A group of about twenty-five students spent their spring vacation touring France, and another group of eleven juniors travelled to Old Quebec City for five days in May. During our junior year many of us became eligible for membership in our high school’s chapter of the National Honor Society. We broke all school records by placing the largest per- centage of a class in the organization. The time vanished quickly and before we real- ized it, we were seniors waiting for our last and most important year at C.H.S... e nMHMMcr What a lovely night for a Moondance ... a line from Van Morrisson, a night in a fantasy world ... Homecoming ’71 ... a unique experience created by different people and different ideas combined into one . . . Moondance 28 Finally after hours of hard work and long dis- cussion, the night we had waited for arrived; con- vincing us that our efforts had been both productive and appreciated. The cafeteria “incognito” was totally transformed to radiate an atmosphere of fantasy. The night ended with the choosing of Eleanor Gates as queen and the members of her court; Cynthia White, Mary Beth Kittredge, Pamela Guidi, Poppy Julsonnett, Carol Kilgour, and Kathleen Hogan. Moondance was the start of our Junior year at CHS and if it was a promise of things to come . . . 29 SNOWY WHITE THE DWARFS Everyone knows the age-old story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, but during our junior year this ancient fairv tale was updated into a thirty minute farce featuring a motorcycle pack as the seven dw ' arfs Snow White was reincarnated from a naive type of girl into a modern day hip kid who really got into rock music. The night was climaxed when three members of our star-studded cast were presented awards for their out- standing performances. Kathy Gibbons, our narrator, received the “Best-Supporting Actress” Award; Bruce Lynskey, the leader of the pack, received the “Best Supporting . ctor” Award; and Karen Paulino, as the hippie-princess Snowy, received the “Best Actress” .Award for the second year in a row! Snowy White was a runaway teenager with a real hangup for mirrors. She fled from her cruel step- mother who had taken her battery-powered phono- graph, and found refuge in the far out pad of seven motor cyclists. A few days later Snowy’s cruel stepmother, disguised as an Awon lady, tracked Snowy down at the dwarves’ hide-out and flipped Snowy out with her poisonous hair spray. The untimely arrival of Prince Humperfink, just as the seven bike cats were about to install the limp body of Snowy into good old Mother Earth, saved the day along with hippie Snowv. The members of our star-studded cast were; Kathy Gibbons as the narrator, Karen Paulino as Snowy White, Bruce Lynskey as Rattler, Marcia Currier as Chewey, Judy Grealis as Scarface, Meg Ball as Patch, Linda Flannagan as Spider, Brigid Ball as Mugsy, Ann Coonev as Gears, Carole Janda as the Stepmother, and Roger Bruso as Prince Humperfink. The three trees of the forest were Jody Braunhardt, Audrey Young, and Karen Kamatarris. Although our basketball teams did not have outstanding records, there were several junior boys and girls who saw action during the season and this experience did carry on to next years teams. In the spring, the baseball team did not have an outstanding season, however they did manage to defeat Milford, a previously undefeated team, in their last game of the season. The girls softball team had a fairly good sea- son, with most of the team members from the junior class. The track team had a 4-5 record for the year, being handicapped with many injuries. Despite the fact that most of these teams did not have a winning season, it should prove to be their year of building stronger and better teams. JUNIOR SPORTS Our class of 1973 can receive much credit for the many new and memorable events that it has brought to Clinton High School in the past four years, and one of the newest and surely one which will always stand out in the minds of many seniors is our trip to France in April, 1972. After many long months of preparation and anticipation, the weeks slipped by and before we knew it, we were departing from Logan Airport, leaving behind our families and friends, and embarking on one of the most memorable journeys of our lives thus far. We began our long flight over three thousand miles of ocean to France, a country which now held a most impor- tant place in each of our minds. After a long but restful plane ride, we finally landed at Paris Airport. Everything was green, green, green! It was a beautiful sunny day, the air was crisp and cool, and the clean bright atmosphere filled everyone with a new feeling of excitement and adventure. With the receiving of our guide, Stella, and the com- mencement of a long bus ride, we all settled down once more to view a beautiful countryside. TRIP TO FRANCE One of the greatest things about our trip, apart from seeing such great sights as la Tour Eiffel, Notre Dame, Versailles, Champs-Elysees, Arc De Triumph and Chatres was our chance not only to see the city of Paris with all its beauty and bustle, but also to visit many small towns and a few very old country villages and to speak to the simple people of the country. There is no better way to end this story than to’ say “thanks” to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Philbin, two won- derful people who made our journey to France pos- sible and who will always be remembered in the hearts of each of us. In everyone ' s life there are memories that mean a little bit more . . . A few captured moments of our Junior Prom are pressed between these pages; each as fragile and precious as the crumbling flowers pressed within a hidden book. For this is one night in which every girl is beautiful enough to be queen . . . and in her own heart, she is one. Enraptured in a fairyland created especially for us to reign in, old animosities and the world’s frustrations were quickly forgotten. For one especially pretty Junior Miss, Fantasy became Reality, as Kathy Hogan was crowned Queen of the Junior Prom. 34 1L I 7 j;. W The hectic day of decorating (“Hey Boss, did you see four nutty girls in curlers walk- ing around looking for a saw?”) became a part of the past. For this was something we, the Class of 1973, had created and given the breath of life to. It was the uniting of a class. We danced, we laughed, we lived . . . Stop, think, and remember that night . . . the night we built our own stairway to heaven . . . cherish the thought of a magical world whose earthly existence was an in- fmitesmal particle of time now lost to us forever . . . but remember, too, that a mem- ory never dies . . . 35 TRIP TO QUEBEC Thurdsay, May 11, 1972: Eighteen eager French IV students under the supervision of Miss Praderio, Miss Hamilton, and Mr. O ' Connell, left Clinton at 7:00 a.m. en route to Old Quebec City, Canada for a five-day stay at the Old Homestead Hotel. Upon arrival we dined at a delicious Chinese restaurant. Friday, May 12, 1972: We began our walking tour of the old city, visiting such historical places as the Plains of Abraham, the Citadel, and the Chateau Frontenac. We spent the afternoon at a modern shopping mall, and that night we threw a surprise birthday party for one of the seniors. Sunday, May 14, 1972: We started off our day with a visit to the Cathedral of St. Anne, attending the services and then browsing around in its various shops. Our next stops consisted of the Cyclorama, a pictur- esque waterfall, and a picnic on a lake. That night we were on our own, and walked around the city for one last look, one which would remain forever in our minds. Monday, May 15,1972: We awoke early to catch the sunrise, and to get an early start on our long trip home. All the way home we could only relive the whole trip and each of us vowed we would return to Old Quebec City. Saturday, May 13,1972: We had this complete day to ourselves and spent it shopping, sight-seeing, or talking with Canadian friends we had made. That night we got “dressed up” and went out to eat at a famous Canadian restaurant called the Powderhouse. JUNIOR YEAR AWARDS Besides placing the largest number of students from one class on the local chapter of the National Honor Society, two members of the Class of ‘73’ were the recipients of major awards in June of our junior year. Audrey ' oung received the Rensselaer Science and Math .‘ ward, and Bruce Lynskey re- ceived the Harvard Prize book •Award for academic achieve- ment and accomplishments in other fields. 38 Nancy Barry Cynthia Mae Bent Sharon Barney ...1 .V ' to Reginald B.

The boys’ football team had a fairly good season as did the girls’ field hockey team. Class officers were elected for the fourth time with the girls completely dominating the class’s choice. In the fall we held two successful dances — a Beatles and Rolling Stones dance, and our own Top 40 dance. Our spagetti supper was another major aid in helping to defray class expenses. The Annual Interclass Dramatics was held in December with five seniors playing major roles. Our play was called “Pardon My Second Scene,” and we all must agree that it was a hilarious comedy. Soon it was Christmas and our final year of high school was half over. The girls’ basketball team had a good season, and the boys’ team tied for first place in the Midland League. Our Senior Hop, “On the Threshold of a Dream,” was held at Turner Hall featuring the soul music of “Spice.” The time flew by quickly, and before anyone knew it, there was talk of a class trip, a banquet, and graduation. All the tests we had sweated out, the homework and the laughs we shared were com- ing to an end. The Class of ‘73’ has had many a great memory that will live forever as lasting fixtures. fl -. v iJ 1 - w FIELD HOCKEY During the 1972-1973 season the field hockey team realized their long-hoped for dream, a winning sea- son. Despite some early losses, the team fought back and went undefeated for the second half of the season finishing with a record of 5-3-2. This was accomplished only through hard work and the assistance of our coach. Miss McCarthy, who instilled in us a feeling of team spirit and the will to win. For the first time in the history of the Midland League, three senior Gaelettes were honored by being selected for the Midland League All-Star team. The All-Star members were Jody Braunhardt, left inner; Maryellen Joyce, fullback; and A. Dale Novick, center forward.

However, this is only part of the storv of the team’s success; as they were in every meet having lost two by a single point. .• s in the past, Shrewsbury and Marlboro fielded strong teams; Marlboro particularly having never lost a Midland League dual meet. The first highlight of the Gaels ' season came when the Harriers handed Marl- boro their first loss in 45 league meets and broke their string of 27 dual meets in a row ' . With a three and two record, Clinton entered the Wachusett Invitational Meet and finished third in Class B, which qualified them for the District Ill’s, to be held the following week. When the time came, the Gaels finished a strong fourth among the Class .• .B,and C competition. Coming off the districts the team went on to win two of their next four games to round out the season. The Midland League Meet, held in Shrewsbury, proved that our efforts would meet with final success. Having lost to Shrews- bury twice and Marlboro once, during the season, the Gaels were the underdogs. However, as in the previous year, they surprised everyone and took home their second consecutive Midland League Conference Trophy. It was a fine tribute to the job Coach Donald Burgwinkle did so well and so untiringly, as well as the success he brought upon us, is his record of a job well done. Thanks again, Mr. Bur- gwinkle, and the best of success in future years.

There was a unity of student body and team which, even though not winning, never ended. Finallv for those of us who played, there was unity of love and respect for each other, not necessarily for talent, but rather for what we were trying to do to bring glory to our beloved Clinton High. In some sort of way, we hope that this goal accomplished that, if not through winning, then at least through our spirit. The 1972-1973 Gael football team began this year with the intention of fareing well in its tough and rigorous schedule. However, due to extensive injuries to key personnel and Just all-around bad breaks, the Gaels ended with a disheartening three and six season; but there must be more said for a Clinton High School football season than just a won-lost record. There is so much more. There are the unforgettable memories that will live with us down through the years. — “Pardon My Second Scene” was different than most plays in that it was one idea presented in ‘Scene One’ correctly, and in ‘Scene Two’ incorrectly. In the second scene everything, from the failure of props to the knock-out of the leading character (in this case — Bruce Lynskey), was a total disaster. I t all went perfect — every disaster went as it should have — we enjoyed it and they loved it. The night didn’t capture the “Best Play Award” this year, but our own Roger Bruso represented the class of 1973 by receiving the “Best Supporting Actor Award” for his truly outstanding performance. The members of the cast: Karen Paulino, Bruce Lynskey, Roger Bruso, Maryellen Joyce, and Eileen Butler, presented out advisor Mrs. Willet with roses of gratitude in deep appreciation of her sincere dedication to the class during the last four years.

With seven veteran seniors and eight juniors, the Gaels put together a fine team. They finished the season with an excellent 14 wins against 5 losses record, and tied for First Place in the Midland League. The Gaels relied on experience, agility, a pressing defense, desire to win, and sportsmanship. These qualities, along with a fine coaching job, were the constant factors toward their success, not only as a winning team, but also a success in the sense of realizing the importance of competition in a real world. Brendan Burgwinkle was selected for the Midland League All-Stars and the Telegram and Gazette Super Team. Jim Farragher, the Midland League All-Stars and the T G, Class B All-Stars. Bill O’Neil, the Midland League All-Stars and the T G, Class B, Honorable Mention. Winning is a team effort, and each player equally deserves credit in the success of this 1973 Clinton High Basketball Team. Maynard Grafton Maynard Milbury Milford Gardner Hudson Algonquin Shrewsbury Marlboro Algonquin Hudson GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Co-captains Jody Braunhardt and Sue Schloerb The 1972-73 girls’ basketball team proved itself to be one of the best girls basketball teams Clinton High has seen with an eight win and four loss record. Because of their strong showing in the regular season, the girls were invited to compete in the Clark In- vitational Girls’ Basketball Tournament. It was the first time a girls team from Clinton has participated in any tournament. The girls played well, but were de- feated in a close game by Shrewsbury 47 to 37 in the first round. During the season co-captains Jody Braunhardt and Sue Schloerb led the team in scoring while Pam Domenico and Deb Pasierb aided in the team effort with their rebounding skills. Eileen Butler contributed with a fine job at center. For the second consecutive year, Clinton was repre- sented on the Midland League All-Star Team. Senior co-captain Sue Schloerb was chosen to be on the team. In addition, several members of the team received Honorable Mention, including senior co-captain Jody Braunhardt. SATURDAY NIGHT - MARCH 3, 1973 AT TURNER HALL MUSIC BY “SPICE” 103 STUDENT EXCHANGE STUDENT GOVERNMENT DAY REPRESENTATIVE riie Student Exchange opened this year on Febru- ary 26. 1973 with a group of students from Lawrence Central Catholic High School. During the course of the day these students visited our high school, the Colonial Press, and various inter- esting sites of Clinton. The day ended with a dinner at the Old Timer Restaurant, and the observation of Clinton’s democracy, at the annual town meeting held in the town hall. On March 19, the ten selected students from Clinton visited Lawrence Central Catholic High School. It was a great experience for them as well as for us. The day opened in Lawrence with a city council meeting in which we viewed the difference between town govern- ments. We then explored their high school, visited various classrooms, and found the day quite enjoyable. The exchanging of ideas from a private high school to a public high school was an experience we will always remember. The group of students representing Clinton were Thomas Bonci, Amy Breed, Brigid Ball, Daniel Des- potopulus, Karen Gallagher, David Lugi, Mary Ellen Murphy. William O’Neil, Edward Walsh, and Audrey Young. At the same time we elected our representatives tor the Student Exchange Club, we elected Audrey Young to the position of Student Government Day Representative. In April, she travelled to the State House in Boston, and played a part as a member of the House of Representatives, discussing key events and current issues with many students from other parts of the commonwealth.
