FROSTHOLM O Mildred E. Frostholm, who has been most helpful and cooperative as a class adviser, for her untiring efforts and sincere friendship, we gratefully dedicate the Flicker of 1949. POURING our flight with Gulliver through the halls of Gloucester High School we shall observe the academic and extra-curricular branches of the school. Between these pages are recorded the scholastic lives of some eleven hundred people: their work, their fun and their achievements. Our four years of high school have been profitable, for we have gained in knowledge, poise, and friends. A class that entered high school while the United States was still at war, we shall graduate into a world at peace, fully prepared for life by our past four years in Gloucester High School under the capable guidance of our principal and faculty.

JOHNSON Principal To the members of the Class of 1949 The day to which you looked forward with so much anticipation in September 1945 is nearly here, and this Flicker is a part of your final high school program. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to have you in the Gloucester High School during these four years. Unfortunately every member of the class who started in September 1945 is not here. You have several new members in the class who have come to us from outside the city of Gloucester. It has been an interesting experience to watch you learn to get along together, working for yourselves and your parents under the leadership of the school. We have striven to train you to be independent, to be capable, and we hope, to be successful. We know we have not given you every thing that you wish, but through the excellent facilities furnished by our city you have had an opportunity to profit as much as you desired in your high school. As you study this Flicker today, and in the years to come, I hope you will reflect upon many incidents that made you happy and which help you to realize the opportunities that Gloucester High School offered you. If we at the high school have been successful in teaching you to work with others representing various faiths, creeds, and races; if we have made you believe that America is the land of opportunity for those who wish to take advantage of it, that you must recognize the rights of others, and that nothing should be done in your time and generation to break down the wonderful American tradition, then we of the faculty can be sincerely happy. Best of luck to each and every one of you and a cordial invitation to visit your Alma Mater whenever the opportunity presents itself. Page Eight MR. WINSLOW S. PARKHURST Second Floor Master MR.

Page Six f y-three FOOTBALL Bronco Breaks Into the Clear Long Gain by Nicastro Sinagra Off Again Nicastro Loose Against Amesbury GLOUCESTER 21 — REVERE 0 A darkhorse Gloucester eleven opened the 1948 season with a convincing victory over Revere. Bronco” Sinagra ran wild all after- noon and scored twice. Byard recovered a blocked kick for the third score. A new-comer named Fernando Periera place kicked all three points. GLOUCESTER 14 — LYNN CLASSICAL 6 In a never-to-be-forgotten game, Gloucester came from behind to astound undefeated Classi- cal. Lynn opened the scoring in the first period but Gloucester retaliated with a long march culminated by a Lucido to O’Neil T. D. pass. Jack Lucido’s 91 yard scoring run made the game safe and Periera kicked both con- versions. GLOUCESTER 14 — NEWBURYPORT 7 This game was settled early as Sinagra went 76 yards on the first play from scrimmage. Minutes later, Jerry O’Neil caught a blocked kick in the air and rambled 38 yards to- the winning-counter. A last period enemy score made the game close. Periera continued his perfect performance with two conversions. GLOUCESTER 14 — SWAMPSCOTT 12 F ' or four weeks, Fernando Periera had con- solidated Gloucester wins with his perfect kick- ing. This time his magic toe spelled victory for the Fisherman brigade. Nicastro scored first, but the Sculpins retaliated directly after. Lucido’s pass to O’Neil gave Gloucester a 14-6 lead, but another enemy T. D. closed the gap once more. Periera’s performance earned him the Boston Heralds’ “Star of the Week.” GLOUCESTER 7 — MARBLEHEAD 7 Shocked by the lo ' ss of star end Jerry O ' Neil, Gloucester was overhauled by a determined Marblehead team. Jack Lucido’s first period touchdown and Periera’s conversion gave Glou- cester a lead which it held throughout. The Headers’ were not to be denied, however, and after stopping the Rossmen on the one foot line moved the length of the field to score with 20 seconds remaining. Page Sixty-four FOOTBALL BEVERLY 36 — GLOUCESTER 7 After holding Beverly in check for almost two periods, Gloucester fell before the Garden City onslaught in a dismal exhibition. Lucido’s 58 yard scoring after catching Garrisi’s pass. The roof fell in as a bad break gave Beverly a tie breaking score. In the second half, Ran- som and Kessaris ran wild over a disputed Gloucester eleven. GLOUCESTER 24 — PEADODY 12 Jackie Lucido and Fernando Periero shared the spotlight as Gloucester resumed its winning ways. Lucido passed twice to end, John Souza, for the first two scores and tallied the third himself. Periera kept his perfect record intact with three conversions and a field goal. In the fourth period, Coach Ross cleared the bench as Peabody scored two consolation tallies. End Run by Lucido GLOUCESTER 19 — AMESBURY 7 Gloucester overcome a stubborn Amesbury eleven on an early splurge. Jack Lucido opened the scoring, closely followed by Sinagra with a 51 yard jaunt. Lucido’s second score clinched things for the Fishermen. The game was re- grettable as Fernando missed his first place- kicks of the year to ruin his perfect record. Amesbury Line Stop the “Bronc” GLOUCESTER 22 — MELROSE 6 On a wet, sloppy gridiron, Gloucester pushed the Red Raiders about almost at will. After starting things off with a safety, Sinagra bucked over for the one. Lucido’s pass to O ' Neil gave Gloucester another score. The fleet Lucido sped 27 yards for the final touchdown. This win almost clinched the Class B title. Lucido Speeds to Gain GLOUCESTER 13 — WAKEFIELD 13 Championship hopes went out the window as an underdog Wakefield eleven rose to great heights on Thanksgiving Day. Lucido’s 40 yard scoring burst gave Gloucester an early lead, but Wakefield rebounded for two tallies and a 13-6 half time lead. With Gloucester hopes waning Hotchkiss blocked a pass and scored. Periera’s kick tied the score. In the final moments, an erroneous ruling cost the Fishermen a touchdown and a Class B title.

(Gus) Hagstrom has proven itself a bone of contention for all Essex County opponents. The boys have shown real polish and finesse, and have shown a definite improvement over last year’s edition. The sparkling per- formances of Capt. Jerry O ' Neil. Tom Aldrich, Bill Twomey, Jack Lucido, On- oranto “Hawk” Galante, the team’s bril- liant little “sixth starter” Conrad Bun- ny Vitale have provided Gloucester fans with plenty of thrills. The team play this year featured great sharpshooting by Al- drich, Twomey, and Galante, steady de- fensive work by O’Neil and Vitale, and all around team work. Playing in a league comprised of many dangerous teams, Gloucester’s performances have been praiseworthy. Further comfort to G. H. S. fans lies in the fact that only four seniors grace a thirteen-man varsity squad. Of this year’s starting five, only Captain O’Neil will be missing come Jamboree time next year. Prospects are surely bright for future years. GLOUCESTER HIGH BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Dec. 10, 1948 (Jamboree) — Gloucester Dec. 28, 1948 — Gloucester Dec. 30, 1948 — Gloucester _.

Girls Sports MODERN ART FUTURAMA: FIELD HOCKEY BAT THE BALL SOFTLY Page Seventy-two iris 5 ports BASKETBALL ON THE DISTAFF SIDE SARGENT — THE WINNERS PYRAMIDAL PIN-UPS REACHING FOR THE WIND Page Seventy three Prophecy Fifteen eventful years have gone by, and there are marks of a modern age on the mem- bers of the 1949 class of Gloucester High School. Styles have changed, car designs are different, but there is no mistaking the fami- liar faces. Punkie” Olmstead’s drawl is just as pronounced, Betty Dolan’s freckles are just as noticeable, and Jack Silva, Jr. is just as laconic as ever. What about your other class- mates and friends? — Read on. It is interesting to note that women have invaded nearly every field of occupation. To prove this point one has only to glance at the positions of our old school mates: Adelaide Bragdon, deep-sea diver; Barb A. Baker and Dotty Adams, supersonic test-flight pilots; Olivia Brown and Pat Abbott, psychiatrists; Betty Brennan, alderwoman; and Barb Brown, marriage counselor. With the abundance of labor saving devices, a new office has been created with R. Kallio and W. Keating as chairmen: Dept, of ” What to Do with the Time Saved.” So far they have not reached any solution. But John Pereen and Joe Lafata have offered their advice: Sleep.” For ambitious businessmen like Jack Jenkins, Art Issacson and Gerald Parady, time is valuable if one is to become a Successful Super Salesman. Thus far there have been no inventions to supplant a well-placed foot in the door and a persuasive smile, says Dave Pistenma. And as far as housewives Shirley Kline, Vickey McCarthy, Jean Parker and Barb Hull are concerned, nothing can replace the traveling salesman. Magazine covers have not changed, either, and are still adorned with beautiful models: Janice Lee, Shirley Jones, Dolores Olson and Nat Killey. Advertising copy is different, however. A sensational idea to have cover boys was introduced by Gil Lum- bard and Sarah Evans. As a result, most ad- vertisements feature: Clayt Hubbard, Gil Laurie, Bob Hull, and Gage Hotchkiss. The corner newsstand has disappeared to be re- placed by Otto Laupman’s ingenious inven- tion, the Newspaper Automat. The company resulting from the product employs on its staff: Liz Lurvey, Gin Larkin, and Lukegard. Ollie Tysver sorts the slugs from the nickels. One of the most popular newspapers is edited by Paul Kenyon. Working for this periodical are many people who have become famous: Mary Viera, for her amusing caricatures; Nancy Webber, for The Roving Dictaphone,” her gossip column; Robert Wilson for his obi- tuary column; Joan Patten for her stinging drama reviews; and Richard Spittle for his sports write-ups. A recent issue featured an article on R. Tarbox and T. Stahre Plastic Company, which had discovered a new type of plastic. So revolutionary was this product that it created entirely new industries. A lead- ing designer, Betty Shaw, has created the Big Peek.” Recently, Candy Viator modeled her latest creation, a shocking-pink plastic dress. The new Television-Phone utilizing this plas- tic, is not endorsed by the still bashful Harvey twins, Sid and Ruth. Dave Greer, Bob Rod- gers and Stan Goodnow have unsu ccessfully tried to patent an infallible plastic algebra an- swer book. Plastics have not invaded the theatre, however. Nancy Dean has scored an- other success in Pal Morey’s play, The Apples Were Green.” Bob Geary and Fernando Pereira are the two male leads contending for Nancy’s hand. From the theater we switch to Ruth Gill’s pet shop where Mike Frontiero is writing a well-publicized symphony for the Monkey Ex- hibition at the Guerin and Hooper Zoo. There’s John Enos again. Oh! Oh! M. MacDonald’s Television Station is located in the boom town of Gezundheit, Arizona, which grew up as a result of P. Marshall’s and Steve Nickas’ discovery of a rich leld of pitch- blende. Some very famous names are connected with this station: the great comedy team of Larry Collins and Pat Haines; opera star, Sheda Post; blues-singers Vi Banfield, Ann Barret, and Nina Anderson; and the satirical modern dance group with Josie Mione, Mary MacNeil, Bet MacMillan, and Ann Mountain. Bentley’s Bang-it-up-and-leave-it” Band (successor to Spike Jones), is the featured attraction at the moment. His drummer, Dick MacDonald and triangle player, Scott Anderson, really split the atom when they get together. Next door to the television building is a moon-rocket construction factory, proprietor, Eugene Alves. The first men and women to reach the moon alive, in a rocket designed by themselves, were Bob Anderson, Robert Hodg- kins, John Matheson, Carolyn Joyce, Catherine Martin and Vera Mayo. This design was elaborated and improved upon by Jean Marsh and Marilyn Nowe, and the rocket is now being manufactured. A regular full-time colony has been established on the moon, commanded by Major Russell Sullivan. He’s really out of this world! From another building, the Dave Marshall Autobus Company, one notices a stream of Page Seventy-four PROPHECY — Continued tear-drop shaped cars, 1964 models, designed by Janet Maddix, Ann Harding and Shirley Cressey. Behind the building the cars are tested in a tortuous obstacle course by test- drivers Eugene Belcher, John Barrigan, Rich- ard Riley and Joe Maciel. Above their heads floats a blimp towing a banner urging people to buy Critchett’s Crunchy Cornpops; and then a cab of the C. C. C. Helicopter Taxi Service speeds by. The C. C. C. stands for the three partners M. Curtis, E. Courant, and C. Curtis. Looking to the top of the Gezund- heit Press Building, (editor-Willa Mack) one can see the news flashed from New Orleans by telecast. Janice Bradstreet and Fred Bishop crowned Queen and King of Mardi Gras! Fifth National Bank looted. President James Mackey in frenzy! . . . Newest Mary Ellen Mills dress design a sensation! John Matheson voted most valuable player of base- ball season! . . . April, Benedetto, and Crowell discover lost Atlantis! . . . Foster discovers oil in East Gloucester, but it belongs to Libby Rust! There is an underground super-speed rail- way direct to Gloucester from Arizona built by John Bodoni and Randolph Pereen so that they could quickly return to Gloucester to see their old pals, Ray Connor, principal of Gloucester High School, and Lillian Parsons, office secretary. A new high school had just been erected by the Corliss and Ingersoll Con- struction Company, the plans of which had been drawn up by Ann Carter and Nancy Newton. The landscaping for the old high school had just been completed by Lois Reed and Shirley Putonen, landscape architects, but the old high school collapsed before it could be enjoyed. There had been a bit of trouble with Lois Wisutskie, head of the English De- partment, who wanted a study lounge for the students, and Phil Perry, superintendent of schools, who didn’t. Several changes have been made on Main Street since 1949. It has been both lengthened and widened and many new stores have sprung up: Nancy Newton’s Dress Shop; Catalim Hardware Company; Hugh Curley, Jeweler; Adrianna’s Beauty Salon; and David Mackey, Photographer. Betty Cranton is manager of Woolworth’s and ' Bender” Banfield owns a sporting goods store. The Times” new editor Kay Curley, has enlarged the sheet and added several new columns. In the latest edition one notices several headlines featuring the names of familiar buddies. Barb MacDonald Rescues Drowning Child . . . Lois McComisky Great Success in Latest Film . . . Faye Maclnnis Pro- moted to Captain of Wap’s (Women’s Air Pa- trol). Nat Mclssac and Joy Alderman colla- borated in their spare time to produce a very successful handicraft shop employing new glass yarn and sand cloth. Shirley Lane, Betty Frusteri, Marilyn Duchane, and Alice Holm- berg acting as guidance counsellors at the Heli- copter School for Little Hellions. Here they are attempting to instruct the progeny of Fred Horne and Donald Gove on courtesy of the air. This is an essential, a must for every child, as helicopters have almost displaced the family car,” says Kathryn Ross. Of course, this is all due to Philip Brains” Holden’s mathematical manipulation of time, rate, and speed. Speaking of speed, Joe Grace, has set the world’s helicopter record-around the world upside down. Even Lanesville has reacted to modern times and now sports ice baths, intro- duced by Marilyn O’Neil and Cliff Arvilla, in place of the outdated saunas” or Finnish steam baths. There deluxe slim-a-toriums are presided over by Marie Hill, ably assisted by the Misses Bette and Claire DeCoste. Reading the newspaper that has just ar- rived we find that Busty Nicastro is just back from Camagolia with his new football finds: Bob Muniz, Favalora, and Gordon Burroughs. Cheerleaders, Claire DeCoste, Barb McGrath, and Nat Friend, and Paige Mclnnis are also a big help to the team with their radar rooting. We’d better move along, there’s Enos looking for us again. Hopping onto one of the many traveling side-walks moving by, I let myself be carried to the outskirts to town where there is a ski- meet. These skis were invented by Ralph Goulart for skiing without snow. That really takes some manipulating to control. First we see Judy Swanson as she makes a spectacular jump from the pine needle covered ramp far down to the judge’s stand where Mary Heck- man, Marie Duchane, Richard Ellis, and Chris- tine Gounaris try to judge the skiers fairly. Among the watching crowds are Janice Tog- nazzi, Novelist; Flo Story, Columnist; and Jacky Stanwood, poet. Then we see Sara Fav- azza, one of today’s greatest women athletes trying her world famous back flip on skis. Some of the less hardy observers have deli- cately fainted. Felice Spugnardo, Nancy White, Loretta Hietala, Katherine Golden and Janet Dickerson, all prominent leaders in the social world, are among these. Rushing to the rescue of these poor souls are ambulance driver, Stan Whitten, Doctor Harry Simpson and Nurse Dawn Harrigan. Leaving them to Page Seventy-five PROPHECY — Continued their misery or pleasure, as the case may be, we catch a passing ski-lift and hurry back to Rosalie Frontiero’s Inn where John Souza and Baker” Silva are broadcasting the news of this great ski event to the listening world. Off to one side arc Coach Bronco” Sinagra and sports writer Russ Silveria discussing foot- ball tactics with C. Goodrich. Scientist Bill Smith and his secretary Flossy Stevens are va- cationing here and also soprano Elaine Tate who is still attempting to reach her high C”. Among the autograph hounds awaiting the arrival of several stars from Hollywood; Vito Florentino, Barb Elwell, Kenny Dagle, and Marion Frick, from Hollywood, are Ann Fa- valora, Rosario Giammanco, and Art Davis; names prominent in the business world. As we return to town, we meet the Duwart Twins as they whizz by in perfect coordination all but hitting various protuberances along their way. Jim Frost, Mathematician stands by try- ing to figure the distance they cover in one second. Let’s get out of here, I see Enos with his white coat on over there! Many stores in Hollywood feature Billy Armstrong’s latest invention Fashions Fabu- lous and Frivolous.” The stores feature movies of the fashions in their store windows as a re- sult, models Barb Hull, Marge O’Connell, Doris Peterson can be frequently seen tripping along the runway. Back at the studio where the movies are produced, William Ingersoll is in charge with Margaret Perry as his technical advisor. Joe Santos is the head cameraman. A special technicolor effect has been achieved by Catherine Crowley. With the new dresses designed by Nancy Brennan, Robert Riley had to be hired as a film splicer. Luminous flour sacks used by the Robert Rodger’s Mills have brightened considerably, farm housewives wardrobes. John Rose, a hired hand, reports that now some of his employers spouses are even prettier than the cows. James McBride is, at present, the millionaire farmer of the west. He has originated ultra-modern dude ranches, with helicopter rides in place of horseback riding. Mary Oliver, Barb Mellow, and Catherine Mar- tin are hostesses at these ranches. Steve Orr has charge of the telecast set which provides evening entertainment for the guests. Madeline and Vita Pallazola did a revival of a cowgirl skit the other night. Let’s leave Enos here and hurry back to where we started, maybe we’ll lose him. Down in Bermuda, The Saroteen Wild Life Pictorial Company is shooting underwater scenes of various tropical fish for the R. Castle Education Films. Manning the pumps are Walter Burbridge and Everett Carrigan while Louise Balbo nervously directs the proceedings. Suddenly a man-eating shark menaces the pho- tographer so over go Adam Catto and Salvatore Crolino to rescue him with their biting knives. The dead shark is hauled aboard by G. Marie Collins and Marjorie Coull with their atomic machine built for just such an emergency. From above Rosie Scola on her skeeter-raft,” a jet propelled lighter-than-air platform, files the memorable incident for future reference on a tape recorder, that will later be sent to the B. J. Baker Laboratories. About a mile away is Ralph Silva fishing from his pleasure yacht with several of his vacationing friends, Elwood Tarbox, Elmer Corujo, and Bill Car- rigan. Oh! oh! Better scoot, There’s Enos! Back in Vanderbilt, North Dakota we find Alice Wilson leading a tour of the city. We shall join it. Pete Doyle, as head of Earl Garvey’s Appli- ance Company is demonstrating (in a window) to the public Carl Johnson’s zipper-glass re- frigerator. Aris Demetrios had previously con- structed a glass door which was not welcomed by privacy lovers. Secretaries, Jane Dahlmer and Betty Cranton found this idea terrible since they would then be working under the watchful eye of their boss, Santo Mineo, all day long. Along the avenue Carl Johnson is successfully selling orange juice drinks to many eager female customers. You’ve heard of sun- kist oranges — these are Charles Olsen kist! Carl’s assistant, Bill LaFond can’t squeeze them fast enough. The oranges, that is! Their little stand would be almost demolished by the mob, would it not be for Joan Parker and Marie Duchane, policewomen. Someone is trying to get our attention. Too late — John Enos has caught us. We must congratulate him on his fine work as he zips us into our straight- jackets. Goodby all! We’re off to the J. Pierce’s Happy Sanatorium. And so we come back to the present where all is calm, peaceful and uneventful. Whoops! there goes Byard into the canal (fully clothed) to retrieve that football which Jerry threw just a bit too far.

ROOM 111 ROOM 120 ROOM 121 ROOM 122 Page Eighty-four Life With Father Ably directed by their new director Miss Rachel H. Pressey, the Dramatis Personae scored a smash hit with their polished presentation of Howard Lindsay and Russell Crouse’s Broad- way success, Life with Lather. The play was centered in the fashionable New York home of Mr. Clarence Day, a prosperous businessman of the 1880’s. Mr. Day ably played by junior Gerald Curhan provided innumerable laughs with his frantic attempts to keep his household intact. His wrath is usually borne by Mrs. Day, portrayed by senior Nancy Dean who gave a brilliant performance. Love interest is added by senior John Silva, Jr., in the role of Clarence Day, Jr., and freshman Jeri Klemer who is Mary Skinner, a visitor in the Day home, gave a truly superb performance. The Day’s next eldest son, John, played by senior William Armstrong, added to the humor as- pect with his ideas and antics. Two younger Days were played by freshmen Fitz Lufkin as Whitney, and eight year old John Lake as Har- lan. The maids whose work never pleases Father and who are constantly resigning their positions are junior Raye Norris, senior Mari- lyn Nowe, and sophomores Louise Peterson and Margaret Ann Morse. The Day’s venerable cook, Margaret, was played by freshman Claire Avila. Other cast members were Aunt Cora, Dorothy Bicknell, ’50, The Reverend Doctor Lloyd, Leo Dionne, ’50, Dr. Humphries, Stan- ley Goodnow, ’49, and Dr. Somers, Lawrence Collins, ’49. The near capacity audience greatly enjoyed the efforts of our aspiring thespians, and their long lasting applause was a fitting tribute to the hard work done by everyone in general and Miss Pressey in particular whose keen wit and coaching ability was fully exercised during the trying hours of rehearsal. Lest we forget the usual competent work done by the stage crew who, under Mr. Rosen’s able direction, made things ship-shape” for the performance. Page Eighty-five LIFE IN G. H. 5.
