We did well in our class play, Tovarich”. Earning letters in football and basketball is a repeat act for many of our Junior athletes. Father Garrahan awarded a trophy to our high school, and each year there will be engraved upon it the name of an athlete selected for scholastic achievement. The Juniors score again! The first name on this trophy is Norman Carruthers. By our marvelous scholastic as well as athletic ability, and by our many other accomplishments, we swell with pride to think that we have one more step to go. We’ll make our page of Hall’s history one of the best! page twenty-seven

Somewhat bashful and a tiny bit fearful during that first year, we discovered that Hall High wasn't such a bad place after all. Before the end of that year, the faculty had already sensed that we were to be an outstanding class. Our class officers were: Rich Mattioda, president; Delores Despain, vice president; Sarah Jane Sweeney, secretary; and Norman Carruthers, treasurer. Miss Connolly was our class sponsor. After a short summer vacation, eve returned to Hall High with much more pride and enthusiasm. We were sophomores, and the envy of all the incoming freshmen. To lead our class we chose Norman Carruthers, a veteran officer of our freshman year, to be president; Fred DeFilippi, a newcomer to the game of class politics, was chosen for the weighty job of vice president; and because Delores Despain filled the office of freshmen president so well, we decided to let her record all important notes about our class and to handle all the finances (?). We carried on to greater heights what we began as freshmen. You saw our sophomore members in all of Hall's activities. We began our junior year ''rarin' to go” and go” we did! We began to assume responsibiilties with great pride, and we have won much praise. Let us go on record as the class that revived the old favorite, The Httll Times. Its staff is mostly juniors, and you'll find us on The Hall Light Staff too. As for music, the juniors could put on a Class A performance without any practice. Need we page twenty-six
