Looking back . . . we've finally reached the point . . . four years fade into an awfully short time all of a sudden . . . but it's a short time with a ton of memories . . . Remember it all started in the fall of '5O? . . . It wasn't long before we were recognized as a tremendous class . . . bursting with talent . . . the coaches stood with open arms to the strong athletic men . . . Our first year quickly passed . . . but we can't forget . . . the trips into the hospital to see Curt . . . and our athletes who displayed unusual talent . . . The fall of '51 brought Norfolkites to our class . . . and how about those Mohican hair-cuts? As juniors we really started the ball of '54 rolling . . . We even began to be famous . . . Grump received national basketball recognition . . . Moe, selected for the All Star football team . . . and Hozzie on the baseball All League team . . . The time finally came when we knew we'd have our last first day at Gilbert . . . We were at last Seniors! . . . Football, of course, was in full swing . . . rallies and all . . . the snake line up Main Street . . . and dances at the Y afterwards . . . Football parties ripped up the houses . . . after every game . . . and the mad dash to the Sweet Shop . . . oh! what memories! . . . The first undefeated team in years! Senior elections gave us Al . . . and Al gave us a terrific prexy with all his work . . . The big difference this year was the cars . . . Everybody drove . . . Curt and his red Ford . . . and Bill Betts with his jalopy. Thanksgiving night introduced the mighty basketball squad . . . Our boys gave the alumnae a taste of their great skill . . . by slaughtering them 54-32 . . . and the Seniors even had cheerleaders . . . Chance! Care! Agile! New! . . . This is senior talk 'tis true . . . the clamor for The City Service Band of America . . . and the senior lingo . . . How about a future . . . Is . . . Pretty . . . The tournament games will never be forgotten . . . the increase in buses to each game . . . the confetti, banners, cow bells and sirens . . . the efforts of the Key Club . . . the songs on the busses . . . the riot at the Rockville game . . . Hozzie's fabulous winning shot . . . and most of all the terrific school spirit aroused by the cheer- leaders . . . The huge banquet . . . at which the boys all got watches . . . ended the season with a bang! Then back to the old grind . . . and work just piling up . . . Then we were worrying about colleges and college boards . . . Lights Out was a complete success . . . thanks to Mary . . . Senior pictures were passed around . . . and the Prom and Prophecy Committees started planning for the end of the year activities . . . Spring came, as always . . . and baseball season started in hopes of keeping the year completely victorious . . . Then came the night we'd been thinking of all along . . . Graduation . . . Sitting on that stage, we realized so keenly that we were leaving . . . not just a school, but real friends, fun, memories, and a part of our life we'll never forget . . . So the four years ended . . . but they only ended in actuality . . . for we always remember them and our days at Gilbert . . . and hope we'll always be remembered, too. 6 IN DEDICATION To you, john G. Atwood, we, the class of 1954, dedicate this Miracle as an indication of our admiration and expression of our gratitude for your lon service, understanding, and friendliness. 7 X F wgwmm Q 5 1 new-X ,A , 11IiiAf iff 'N .r-. ,V n 2 -rv? 4 HQ. :,N - I ., ' .

' Q The win pushed Meriden ahead by one-half game. over Naugatuck American Legion with a .6-1 re- cord for top honors. It was the se- cond conquest for the locals over the valley nine. While Faheylwas rewarded with his second victory without a de- feat, the Merchants slammed out 15 hits. Outfielder Bill Boehle con- tinued his heavy stickwork. The Merchants top swatter bashed out a two-run triple .and a pair of one-base blows and knocked in four runs off pitcher Red Logan. Derby drew first scoring blood in the- top of the second when Phil Martino legged out a two- away infield single and took sec- ond on a throwing error by Char- lie Pike. Bedrin Hassen sent a bouncer to third sacker Pike, but the Meriden infielder uncorked a wild throw over first that scored Martino for a 150 edge. The lead was- shortlived how- ever, when Meriden bounced back with two markers in the last of the second. After one out., Pike lined a single to center and stole second. rJohn Giampola walked. The two runners executed a double-steal to move into scoring position. Dave Museo then crack- ed a sizzling single to left to put the Merchants ahead 2-1 and they were never headed. The locals strung together four hits, singles, by Gimapola, Fahey and Alan Webb and Boehle's tre- mendous triple-and cashed in on two Derby infield bobbles that sent them into a comfortable 7-1 bulge in the fourth frame. They did some loud-base thumping in the final frame by scoring six times on four hits.

Lee was beaten 54-0 and Gilbert whipped Sacred Heart 34-0. Farmington was next on the schedule and was beaten 54-7. Cranwell Prep., the last game played, was defeated 55-7. The game with Lyman Hall was canceled because of snow and so ended the season with six wins and no defeats.

BASKETBALL TEAM 1953-1954 The 1953-1954 Gilbert basketball team got the ball rolling as they set up a good record of 13-5. The Gilbert five started the season by licking Alumni 54-32. Middletown was defeat- ed 63-44. Double wins over Seymour, Terryville, Goodwin Tech., and Windsor as well as drubbing Searles and Regional by scores of 54-44 and 69-64 gave the Jackets a good start. Torrington stopped Gilbert for the second time early in the season 69-54. Rockville downed Gilbert on their second meeting 57-47. The next three wins were halted by Middle- town and Regional 53-49 and 60-49. The Yellowjackets wound up the season rated as fourth in the state for Class B. Gilbert qualified for the C.I.AC. tournaments held in New Haven and started out by beating Killingly 42-34 in a close, fast game. This was the first game ever won by Gilbert in the tournaments and the team and the fans were looking forward to the next game with Lyman Hall. As in the Hrst tourna- ment game with Killingly, the Gilbert five were to come from behind in the last few minutes of play to win the thrilling game to the close score of 44-43. The team and crowd went wild as Gilbert won their second tournament game. Entering the semi-inals Gilbert was opposed by Rockville. This game was played in the New Haven Arena and Gilbert won in an action-packed game as the quintet stood up under pressure and stayed ahead all the way as the game ended 61-50. All of Gilbert and their many supporting fans in Winsted looked forward to the final game to be played in the Arena with the undefeated East Haven team. However, the sharp East Haven team blocked Gilbert at every turn and the Yellowjackets were beaten by the score of 55-36. The tournaments ended as the Yellowjackets nearly brought the Class B crown to Gilbert. 81 ,fm S -A .i 1 , 5 YJ v l ' X K Nag' e H 'Q , ,7 7 I wg Wifi f' as- g I VL.-i fN 4u i l Mm u 5, if M x Q Y f f ::-3 '?,M lic mx k . . f014 'i' Q7- 5.

BASEBALL 1954 As this copy goes to press, the Gilbert baseball team has as yet played no games. The jackets under the able guidance of Coach Carl Coleman have some good material and are looking forward to a successful season. Bob Chiefo Belladella will lead the squad as captain along with such reliables as Ritch Kittredge, Bob Morgan, Leon Veretto, Pete Gallant, and Joe Ramsay. For the past several seasons the Yellowjackets have been playing in the fast Naugatuck Valley League which includes such baseball strongholds as Wilby, Ansonia, and Torrington. 85 HF!! ,Q E5 .E W Nu.
