STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, formed in 1945, has worked tirelessly for the general well-being of the school by giving the students an opportunity to express their own viewpoints concerning school activities, and by fostering a feeling of cooperation and understanding between the faculty and the student body. The eleven members of the Council include four seniors, four juniors, two sophomores, and one fresh- man. Each student is elected for a period of one year except the junior members who continue to serve dur- ing their senior year. Pfemlenz ...................... ......

This year, a Pep Club was formed consisting of exuberant students of each class. The members have practiced with the cheer- leaders and have attended all the games-in and out of town. If the cheerleaders in future years achieve their pur- pose as well as the '49 and '50 girls, Gilbert will never be without school spirit and moral support.

Students are chosen for their acting ability or their ability to work behind the scenes, and after a year as probationers, they automatically become members of the club. Each week a program is produced by one of the classes. This year the club presented a one-act Christmas play, The Tree, by Ellen McMortin. The members, under the direction of the advisors, Miss Field and Miss Morehardt, learned about acting, make-up, direct- ing, and staging. Preridem ........... ....

Only students of the three upper classes are permitted to join. The officers of the club are chosen twice a year together with a program committee which appoints sub-committees to provide programs for each club day. Every year the Club puts on a chapel program for the school during which the members endeavor to show the students interesting and educational experi- IHCHIS. Preridenf ........... .....

From time to time, too, the students with Miss Matteson and Mrs. Speers have attended meetings of other F.H.A.'s in other sections of the state. This year at Christmas, cards were sold in the Homemaking Department and the profit from the sales was put into the club treasury or used for the purchase of necessary items.

This year the students have learned to silk screen print on neck- CLUB ties, Christmas cards, and other articles of interest. In addition, the members have made and installed a billboard for the front hall, as well as painted a back- drop for Miss Sonier's musical concert. Already it has become one of the most beneficial Clubs of the school. First Row, Left to Right: j. Coffey, L. Beaudoin, T. Mazzei, M. Sultaire, N. Kane, B. Dings, A. Santoro, S. Iacino.

At the beginning as well as at the end of each school year members from the three upper classes are chosen to become members. This year several community pro- jects were successfully undertaken. Likewise, a number of dances and other social events sponsored by the club proved to be decided successes. Pfefidenz ........ ..... M ARILYN SULTAIRE Vice-Prefidenz ..... ......

HI-Y The Winsted Hi-Y, originally formed in 1954, dis- banded about a decade later only to be reformed the following year when fifteen boys gathered together and formed what is now the Laurel City Hi-Y. The new club has taken part in many of the Winsted activities and has gone all out in the effort of making Winsted a better place in which to live. Its dances, games, banquets, motion pictures, and trips have made the Laurel City Hi-Y firmly established until it is now one of Gilbert's best organized clubs.

Room collectors, who are elected by their classmates or appointed by the home room teachers, collect for the drive under the guidance of the Red Cross advisor, Miss Bailey. Half the funds collected is sent to National headquarters and the other half is kept at school to assist the members in under- taking some school project for the benefit of the Red Cross.

MACHINE SHOP CLUB The junior Machinists' Club was organized for the boys in the two upper classes to get them better acquainted with machines. These boys design and make projects as well as repair machines and tools. These projects and tools made by the boys are largely formed from scrap metal in the shop. The boys have learned to economize the metals they use. Talks and discussions are held monthly to make them familiar with the new advancements and with up-to-date machinery.

CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club, one of the more recently formed clubs, was started by a small group of students who wanted to work together in photography. Slowly they have built up their darkroom and increased their equip- ment, until today they are a fairly active club. The small size of the group, however, and the great expense of photography have been the two factors that have hindered this club immensely. Besides their own inte- rests, the members of the club assist the MIRACLE by submitting snapshots taken around the school. Prefidenz ......,.....................................

If enough interest is shown, it is hoped that soon this club will result in a full-time class. As a result of the Commercial Club, we feel sure that when the mem- bers graduate, they will have a better knowledge of business practice and will be well equipped for their work.

FOOTBALL Five years ago interscholastic football, which had been functioning on an intramural basis here at Gil- bert during the war years, was resumed, and in the two following years, under the coaching of an ex-Trinity lineman, Don Viering, the Blue and Gold began to rebuild. Roy Kent, who became the present mentor in 1947, promptly discarded the T formation in favor of the single wing. The 1949 squad started off on Saturday, September 17, for the first game of the season, dropping a heart- breaker to unbeaten Lee of Massachusetts, 26-6. The team then traveled to Enfield for the next game. Although the Kentmen fought hard and made a com- mendable showing of themselves, they were defeated by Enheld, 24-0. On October 8, Coach Kent and his retinue journeyed to Southington for the game with Lewis. Here the Kentmen played gamely, but were defeated, 46-0. The following Saturday, October 15, Gilbert opened its home season in an encounter with Seymour, where they fought hard, but were again defeated, 19-6. On October 22, the Gilbertonians, playing one of their better games of the season, defeated Canton 12-6 for their first victory of the season. It was a well- deserved victory. In the following game Gilbert, undoubtedly playing the best of the season, put up a stiff defense and a clicking oH:ense to play Farming- ton High to a 14-14 stalemate. Gilbert's football team ended its season on Saturday, November 5. Despite the miserable weather Ca con- tinuous cold drizzle intermixed with a little snow and sleetb a fine crowd was present. The condition of the ball and field greatly hampered the plays-especially the passing of the ball, but although the Kentmen played well, they were defeated by Plainville, 35-7. This completed the schedule of the season with a record of one win, one tie, and five losses. Throughout the entire season, the Gilbert Football Team fought hard and made a commendable showing of themselves. GIRLS' BASKETBALL First Row, Left to Rigth: M. Harris, N. Andrews, S. Chapin, M.

BASKETBALL The 1949-50 basketball team, under the guidance of Coach Nichols, was a decided success. Although the season started off with a losing streak of four games, the team pulled itself together and won the next six consecutive games. The annual Alumni game, on Thanksgiving night, opened the season. This hard-fought battle ended in a 43-39 victory for the alumni. The Gilbert players, however, battled valiantly against a team of mainly college men. The traditional tilt with Torrington, played in that city, resulted in a 54-34 victory for the Big Red. During the first half, however, the Yellowjackets played inspiring ball and were a rival threat to the Torringtonites. In the remaining cantos the Yellow- jackets lost their sting and Torrington forged ahead to win. Two other heartbreaking defeats were suffered at the hands of Wilby, 59-57, and Seymour, 47-34. Then Gilbert got into the win column and stayed there for six successive games. Terryville was defeated twice with scores of 37-35 and 45-21. Searles, Windsor, Farmington and Lewis were successfully routed also by the storming Yellowjackets. The rest of the season followed a won-lost, lost-won pattern with Gilbert dropping games to Torrington 44-35, Farmington 42-41, Sacred Heart 45-44 and 43-31, and Lewis 40-37. However, a win against Water- town on February 10 sewed the tourney bid for Gilbert. Gilbert traveled to the Yale's Payne-Whitney gym in New Haven with great hopes of winning their initial contest. Darien, which placed fifth in the tourney, was Gilbert's first opponent, but having lost three key players in the midst of the season because of scholastic difficulties, Gilbertis chances of winning the battle were slight. The strong Darien team, paced by three six-footers, forged ahead to win a hard fought contest by a 49-34 score. Gilbert, placed 16th and last in the tourney, has high hopes of a very successful season next year. 54 3 W W x i W-al 4 H 1 N, ,. First Row, Left to Right: C. Brooks, J. Woodward.

The Yellowjackets are being coached again by Carl Cole- man and his able assistant, Charles Spud Fecto. This year Gi1bert's baseball team is competing for the title in the Naugatuck Valley League. The strongest of its kind in the state, it is composed of such top teams as Naugatuck, Ansonia, Wilby, Crosby, Leavenworth, Torrington, and Gilbert. Besides several league encounters, Gilbert will again play many of the strong, independent high school teams in the state. During the past years, Farmington, Canton, Plainville, and Simsbury have encountered the Gilbert team. Now, with a considerable number of schools adopt- ing lighting systems on their fields, it will be possible for the Yellowjackets to play a few night games. Although there are many holdovers from last sea- son's team, Coach Coleman will still have to fill several vacancies from a host of tryouts-and many men are reporting this year. A total of twenty-one games is now scheduled. At present, the Gilbert team has won two out of four games, namely, those with Leavenworth and Naugatuck. Gilbert defeated Regional, 13-2, and Ansonia, 7-5. The squad lost, however, to Farmington, 4-5 and to R. I. State, 8-3. Although six games had been scheduled up to this time, two were not played because of inclement weather. In the past, Gilbert baseball teams have flourished as strong, independent teams in the Valley League. It is now their hope that they will do so again. Our aim is that the caliber for Gilbert teams in the future will continue to remain as high as those of the preceding years. Whether, though, they win or lose, they will give a good account of themselves. -J fi as if 1' if J5- Q an nw, v' L L., f,-- .

Once upon a time in the far away kingdom of Newmania in the castle of Foggy dwelt King Ryan and his fair queen Lady Meyer. All the King's knights were battling to win the hands of the king's two beautiful daughters, Isabelle and Karam. King Walter, the ruler of Portinari, a neighboring kingdom, was in love with Karamg but he could not marry her because a boundary dispute with King Ryan had placed him in the king's disfavor. King Ryan decided to hold a tournament in Haburey pasture with his forces under the leadership of Sir Hughes battling the Black Knights of Sir Walter's kingdom. The two winners of the tournament would receive the hands of either Isabelle or Karam in mar- riage. The date for the tournament would be set as soon as Sir Hughes returned from Simonia where he was battling the ferocious heathen tribes there, led by Muscles Gerchell. When King Ryan received word that Sir Hughes had defeated Muscles, and was bring- ing Gerchell and his Wife, Lady Humphrey, back to Newmania as captives, he made plans for a huge banquet to be held in Merrill Hall in honor of Sir Hughes. The royal jester, Lasher DiMauro, and the royal dwarfs, Reilly and Pustinger, were ordered to provide suitable entertainment for the feast. As was usually the Case, the silly trio wracked their noggins but could not think of a single stunt that would please the king. Then the king's chief Hunter suggested that a bull fight featuring Santoro, the royal bull, would be an interesting event. Zuchegna, the royal execu- tioner spoiled this plan, however, when he accidentally chopped off Santoro's head while he was practising for the execution of Sultaire, who had stolen the queen's solitaire. Finally, a plan was decided upon. The court singers, Angino, Reidy, Radocchio, Gangi, LaGamba, and Warner, would sing He Bleuher Over With One Breath and The Church Bell Dings at Dawn. Then the famous dancers, Bubbles Deming, Gypsy Mazzei, Twinkletoes Nichols, Lightfooted Kane, and Blondie Chapin, would perform their dance The Brooks Ate Fuller Water. The audience would also be charmed by I. Diulio's beautiful Seranade in Z Flat, played by the celebrated pianist, Stavnitzky Russo. Naturally those masters of wit, Aube, Anstett, and Brousseau, would hold the show together with their witticisms. Various other less famous entertainers, such as Talbot the Traveling Troubador, and john the Juggler, would also perform. Then came the eventful day on which Sir Hughes arrived home with his faithful retainers, Heacox and Wabrek. The entertainment provided by the king's courtiers was gratefully received by these weary men. After the show, a huge banquet took place in Aust Inn. A delicious meal, consisting of Pease, Coffey, Fowl-er and imported Fratini wine, was served by Dolly Darcey and Lily Lalli, the scullery maids. After the feast Sir Hughes announced that the tournament would be held in Haburey pasture within three days. Immediately the knights left the banquet hall and went to their Holmes to repair and polish' their armor for the coming joust. The king held a con- ference with his lawyers, Otis, LaGamba, and Otis to discuss whether it was legal to offer his daughters as prizes for the tournament. They assured him that he was within his paternal rights to do so. King Ryan then summoned all the foreign ambassadors to his council chambers. They were by name, Sir John Lloyd, Phillips Rouillard, Michael McWilliams, Hans Van Buskirk, and Luigi DiSilvestro. He invited these impos- ing individuals to attend the tournament and assigned seats of honor to them. The day of the tournament arrived, and from far and near peasants and noblemen alike assembled on the green slopes and patiently awaited the forthcom- ing event. The distinguished and aged Lord Beecher was present which added to the honor and glory of the occasion since he was acclaimed to be the only horse which the famous jockey, Diulio, had ever ridden in the Driscoll Derby. At the entrances to the field three heralders, DiCara, Colavecchio, and Dautrich, were stationed to announce the arrival of distinguished guests. First came Belve- dere Dwyer with his nationally known pets, Brower and Pludeg next, the arrival of the renowned Bajorin was announced. Then, amid the blaring of trumpets, King Ryan, Lady Meyer, and the Princesses Isabelle and Karam entered. The royal party took their seats in the royal box to await the start of the tournament. Near the entrance to Haburey pasture, Grivalsky, Gillette, and Gabelmann had set up their bookie box. Betts ranging from one to one hundred dollars were being taken with the odds favoring Sir Hughes' forces three to one. The crowds which blackened the hills around the tourney fields murmured impatiently. Where are King Walter's Black Knights? Suddenly a huge roar filled the air. The Black Knights, led by a huge, black- masked warrior, were entering the field. Simaltaneously the reserved seats opposite King Ryan's box were filled by King Walter's party. Seated in the center of the group was a purple robed figure which apparently was King Walter. With all eyes on the field the two bands lined up for their first clash. On King Ryan's side Sir Hughes occupied the center position. Flanking him were the famous quintuplets, Sir Anderson, Lord Lachat, Baron Andrews, Earl Trent, and Count Clark. On the oppos- ing side was the mysterious, black-masked knight, reinforced by Bartolotta, Mangione, Youmatz, Calkins, and Woodward. A clash of the cymbal indicated that the battle had begun. The troops spurred their horses onward, and for a moment the battlefield was obscured by a cloud of dust. As the smoke cleared, it was apparent that many of the knights had been unhorsed. The knights remain- ing on their mounts retired to a small enclosure and waited there until the others left the field of battle. Finally, after numerous forays the group which was left to compete in the tournament had narrowed down considerably. Soon the heralders announced that the following knights had been mortally wounded: Tib- bals the Terrible, Curtiss the Courageous, DeMars the Daring, and Novak the Notorious. Sir Hughes' Mag- nificent Marino had been injured in the joust, so the announcement was made that Sir Hughes would use another fine horse for the remainder of the tourney. When the other knights had also changed horses, the final stage of the tournament began. The knights were to battle among themselves until two horsemen remained. First, Bergmann fell beneath the sword of Nicosia, then with a jolt Aquilino accidentaly slipped from his horse. With a mighty blow Reilly swept Rebillard from his horse while he in turn was unhorsed by Sir Hughes. When the mysterious black-masked knight had vanquished Sartirana and Smith, only he and Sir Hughes remained on the tourney field. King Ryan proclaimed them the winners of the tournament and courteously asked the guest, the masked knight, which of the two princesses he wished to wed. He answered that it was Isabelle, and then took off his mask revealing that he was King Walter. The king, approving of the marriage, proclaimed the wedding day a special holiday, for not only were Isabelle and King Walter married but also Sir Hughes was betrothed to Karam, whom he had secretly loved for many years.
