• ' � ■- . « t : M ton, Q.mu (.on, o. aovdujord We, the class of “51”, after reaching the end of our high school career, are about to enter into a new and complicated life. After years of preparation, each of us is now ready to carry his burden of responsibility in guiding our country toward last- ing peace and prosperity. During our stay at Hamilton High School, we have learned the vital elements which will enable us to meet the demands of life. As fledglings, we have tried our wings in the art of living in, and learning of, democracy. To us was granted the freedom of speech, the freedom of assemblage, the privilege of voting, and the right to practice the art of living in a democratic government. Yes, a democratic life has been ours while participating in the community events of H.H.S. Through the teachings and guidance of our friendly, cooperative, and skilled faculty, we have emerged as young men and women who are ready to take their places in Amer- ica today. It is with many full and happy thoughts in our minds, a proudness in our hearts, and a spirit of confidence, that we, the class of “51”, bid farewell to Hamilton High, our worthy and ever-remembered Alma Mater. Dadtcal ' LOTi We, the students of Hamilton High School, dedicate the HAMILTONIAN of 1951 to Mr. Wilbur B. Armstrong. To him we express our eternal gratitude for his teachings and guidance in preparing us for community life.

There were seven veterans from last year- Lucy Lander, as our capable head cheerleader, Laura Tate, Marguerite Caverly, Betty Walke, Joan Semons, Diane Love, Janice Blenkhorn, and our new addition was Ann MacCurrach who proved her ability in cheerleading. It took cooperation and enthusiasm to make up new cheers, to learn them, and to teach them to students at rallies, but the cheerleaders this year have instilled a great spirit in the student body. As every year we kept our opponent, Manchester, guessing, but during those close scores we enjoyed cheering Hamilton on to victory. Basketball season passed quickly, but the fourth game was the most important as we played in the Boston Garden against Hillsboro, New Hampshire. The cheerleaders had a new look this year with their new uniforms which they made themselves under the supervision of their mothers. We enjoyed cheering at games we lost as well as games we won, and we wish a successful cheerleading year to the new-comers. The Hamiltonian dlLllLOr J ' ligh Ckt Ckb The Junior High Glee Club was formed early in the fall with fourteen members: Carol April Ruth Bodge Alberta Bryant Margaret Cullinane Charles Gauthier Robert Chute Ailene Fuller Kathrine Glendenning Lorraine Lewis Margery Ricker Jeanne Rice Alice Roberts Elaine Titus Mary Walke Most of the year has been spent in reading and singing two-part music in prepara- tion for promotion to the Senior Glee Club next autumno Miss Austin invited the group to sing at the Christmas concert, which has been their only public performancco They have been most ably and faithfully accompanied by Joan April, a senior of great musical promisCo The group has enjoyed and profited by singing regularly with the piano-player which was so kindly presented to the school by a former neighbor, Mr. Robert Thacker� The Hamiltonian 6 (22 Qu-b The Girls’and Boys’Glee Clubs have worked together this year as a mixed chorus to marked advantage. The boys’ bass and tenor voices have blended with the girls’ voices and added depth and richness to the choral singing. The first public performance was the Christmas Concert that featured the effective cantata: “Child Jesus”. This cantata is made up of ancient French and English carols interspersed with recitative solos that narrate the Biblical story of the birth of the Christ Child. Edward Rauscher and Lloyd Cann, tenors, and William Humphrey and Ted Johnson, basses, sang the narrative solos. The concertconcluded with general carol singing led by Miss Austin’s violin. Johnstone Geikie accompanied at the piano. On January 27, Miss Austin took the chorus to Lawrence to perform the fourth annual program over Radio Station WLAW for the “March of Dimes” drive. Again, as in past years, Mr. Harrington, who is in charge of the half-hour broad- cast, invited the group for lunch afterwards at the Lawrence High School. Mr. Blanchard gave a speech explaining the remarkable achievements of the Infantile Paralysis Foundation in Essex County alone. The musical program included solos by Johnstone Geikie at the piano. Miss Austin on violin, and Phyllis and Priscilla Holmes in a group of their “Sandy and Dusty” hill-billy numbers. The chorus sang the Spanish waltz “Nightfall in Granada”, the Viennese Old Refrain, “The Song We Sang,” “The Best Things in Life are Free,” and Sousa’s “Stars and Stripes” March. The operetta this year is“jeannie’with the Light Brown Hair.” The scenery pictures a Southern plantation mansion of 1870. Here dwells Jeannie (Janice Blenkhorn) with her uncle. Judge Rawdon (Ted Johnson). She is surrounded by her faithful Mammy Phyllis (Natalee Stone) and a bevy of boys and girls all friend- ly and attending a party. One of her suitors, Rodney Crawley (Lloyd Cann) with his shyster lawyer, Mr. Poisson (Maurice Sabean) is a sly villain who almost ruins her chances of finding her long lost lover, Dennis Jackson (Edward Rauscher). Between scenes Dennis’ darky servant, Lucifer (Roger Washburn) carries on a comical flirtation with Phyllis. Three chorus groups-- the girls, the boys, and the plantation darkies-- keep gay, lilting tunes rolling along throughout this thoroughly American play, “jeannie” was performed on Friday evening. May 4, in the school auditorium. The faculty members who assisted with the production were Mrs. Ramer on tickets, Mr, Gero on scenery and printing, Mr. Sakey on publication. Miss Boswell on costumes and props. Miss Anderson on ushers, and Mr. Moyer, Miss Volk, Miss McKay, and Mrs. Houle on make-up.

The squad, which consisted of 22 girls, was anxious to begin their schedule, since we had new equipment for the entire team. Our first game was the traditional one with the Alumnae, which we won by a score of 5 - 0. Our center, Natalie Stone, scored 4 of the 5 goals. Our first game away from home was with Beverly Country Day, which we lost by a score of 2 - 1, but the return game with them was won by the same score. When we played Topsfield here on November 14, we won by a score of 1-0, and two days later, we played our return game with them, and won by a score of 2 - 0. We were able to schedule only one game with Danvers, which we played on their field. Danvers led during most of the second half by a score of 2 - 1, but in the final minutes of the game, Natalie Stone saved the game by making a goal, and tying the game at 2 - 2. On November 16, we ended a very successful season with 4 wins, 1 loss, and 1 tie. Natalie Stone was high scorer for the season with 10 goals. Other goals were made by Angie Dagresta, Janice Blenkhorn, and Betty Walke, We are looking forward to a successful season next year, since most of our lettermen are returning.

We emerged the victors by one basket. In the subsequent games we lost to Rockport and Ipswich; but largely because of the loss of our 6’4” center Ted Johnson, who injured his knee early in the season. Fortune began to smile on us w hen Stanley Gusoski became eligible to play, however. Our schedule was as follows: December 22 Alumni 37 - Hamilton 28 - Home January 5 Hamilton n 12 Hamilton n 18 Hamilton � 23 Hamilton n 26 Hamilton n 30 Hamilton February 2 Hamilton 6 Hamilton � 16 Hamilton n 27 Hamilton 9 Hamilton Average Hamilton 36 - Manchester 34 - Away 31 - Rockport 39 - Home 31 - Hillsboro N.

Our star, and yearling was John Carter. He was the third highest scorer in the Cape Ann League and an outstanding worry to all our opponents. Our main stays were Jermyn, Washburn, and Sabean. Those deserving of honorable mention are: Eddie Rauscher, Snuff Schofield, Donnie Grant, and Wayne Gauthier. Our basketball team had a 500 average, and a promise of league champion- ships for next year. Our two outstanding feats for the season were our near win over Ipswich, and our trampling defeat of St. Anns of Gloucester. We earned third place in league standing.

The return game with Rock- port was a very exciting game, Rockport winning by a score of 38-37. Both games with Beverly were the opponent’s all the way. When we played Manchester on our own floor, we won by a score of 44- 22, but in the return game, we lost by a margin of 4 points. The greatest number of points scored in one game was during this game, in which Betty Walke scored 23 points. When we went over to Ipswich, we lost by a very large margin, but in the return game, we lost by only 8 points. High scorer for this year was Betty Walke with 80 points. We are looking forward to a successful ’52 season with five of our nine lettermen returning, and a number of other players who were on the Junior Varsity team this year. The manager of the team was Laura Tate with Priscilla Holmes as assistant manager.

Priscilla Holmes, Asst. Mgr. Coach: Mrs. Houle The Hamiltonian %otba The outstanding features of the 1950 Hamilton High Football Team was its steady improvement from the beginning of the season to its end« The opening game matched the Green and White with the Alumni of the past two years. The game was close and hard fought, but the heavier, more experienced Alumni final- ly prevailed, 13-6. The first Manchester game, at Manchester, September 30th found Hamilton off form, while Manchester was as hot as the weather. Story broke away to an early lead as a result of a blocked kick and by half time had piled up an 18 to 0 advantage. The second half was played on more even terms, both sides scoring 6 points, but the damage was done. Rebounding from the Manchester setback, the Hamilton sextet met a heavier Topsfield team the following Saturday. The game was featured by the superior line play of the Green and White, and the running of Sabean and Bob Henley. Topsfield made it a contest all the way, but the Hamiltonians were finally the victors 21-6. Essex Aggie, a formidable rival was our next opponent. The local warriors played their big opponents off their feet the first h f, gaining consistently, but never quite able to cross the Aggie’s goal line. In the second quarter Bob Henley recovered an Essex fumble and raced 40 yards for a touchdown only to have it recalled illegal. The half ended a scoreless one. The Aggies came back strong to score twice and take the game. Since a change in the referee’s ruling allowed the second period touchdown of Bob Henley’s to be entered in the scoring; the final was officially Essex 12, Hamilton 6. It may have been coincidence, but with the arrival of the new uniforms the fortunes of the Green and White improved. Journeying to Lancaster, they took a vastly heavier Lancaster team into camp 12-6. Mossie Sabean ran 70 yards to score on the first scrimmage, and later scored again to provide the margin of victory. A big hard- running Harvard team came to Hamilton on October 27th. By now it was apparent that Hamilton was to be outweighed in every game, and that they must run around their opponents or pass over their heads. Hamilton proceeded to do that. Led by Captain Sabean, whose running and passing dazzled the visitors, the local gridsters piled up a 46-0 score. The ball carrying of George Jermyn and Bob Henley, the pass receiving of Ted Johnson, and the defensive play of Bob Henley and Tom Henley were outstanding features. On an unseasonably hot afternoon of November 2nd, Hamilton traveled to Essex Aggie to meet defeat again 18-12 in spite of leading most of the game. The running of Wayne Gauthier and Captain Sabean, and the defensive play of Bob Henley were features of this bitterly fought contest. Still smarting from defeat Hamilton High met the highly favored traditional rival Manchester on Armistice Day. An inspired Green and White fought Story High to a standstill, tackling furiously, passing brilliantly, and capitalizing on the champions’ every mistake. The passing and running of Sabean, the pass re- ceiving end of Ted Johnson and Bob Henley proved too much for our opponents. At half time the score was 6-6, but Hamilton forged ahead 12-6 at the beginning of the second half only to have Manchester take a 13-12 lead. With about 1-1 2 minutes of play left, Hamilton completed 3 passes climaxed by Bob Henley’s 15 yard run to make it 18-13. Jermyn converted for a 2 pointer shortly before the game’s end. Final score- Hamilton 20, Manchester 13. Stasiak of Manchester lived up to his reputation as a fine, hard running back, and his ball-toting gave Hamilton many anxious moments. The Ha miltonian Lee Schofield Lawrence Smith Roger Washburn Thomas Henley George Jermyn Robert Caley Lloyd Cann Robert Henley Donald Grant Robert Ricker Maurice Sabean Theodore Johnson Wayne Gauthier Coach: Mr. Moyer The Hamiltonian The final game November 18th saw Hamilton matched with a newcomer, Leavitt Institute of Turner Center. Hamilton was off to a fast start and piled up a 24 to 0 lead at half-time against the hefty, but bewildered, “Down Easters.” Leavitt came back strong in the second half to score 4 times against the local team, which had its entire squad in and out of the game. Final- Hamilton 45 Leavitt 25. The strong finish of the Hamilton gridmen made the banquet and dance after the game more enjoyable. During the season the steady play of Tom Bane at center, aided by Ed Rauscher, proved of great value. The fine blocking of Tom Henley at right end and his stellar defensive play was truly a fine asset. Special praise belongs to Wayne Gauthier who alternated at end and halfback, and filled both positions most capably. Halfback Roger Washburn proved a most helpful alternate back, of whom much is expected next year. The lettermen on the squad were Tom Henley, Tom Bane, Ed Rauscher, Ted Johnson, Wayne Gauthier, Roger Washburn, Donald Grant, Bob Henley, George Jermyn, and Captain Maurice Sabean. With most of the squad back in 1951 the team believes it can take up where it left off in 1950. It is grateful for the loyal support of its fans, in and out of school. It hopes for even greater support next year, for more stable officiating, for a greater turnout of candidates for the team, and of course for an even better sea- son.

This made it possible to schedule more games than during any past time and in that way gave a lot more of experience in real competition. The first game on the schedule was with the Andover Junior High. The game was played on the home court and while lost to the larger school by a score of 28 to 23, there were plenty of exciting moments. Lawrence Smith and Philip Trussell starred for the home team. In the second game with Pickering Junior High School at Salem the Hamilton boys were successful in winning this one by a score of 28 to 27. Robert Caley and Donald Lightbody did a magnificent defense job in this game while Lawrence Smith, James Parker and Philip Trussell did the work that made the points. The third game with Amesbury was won by a score of 50 to 36. Of inter- est in this game was the excellent refereeing of messieurs Blanchard and Martini. Philip Trussell provided the heavy scoring in this game, while Robert Caley and Lawrence Smith did some fine defensive work. The return game played at Amesbury was lost by a score of 36 to 42. The Amesbury boys were very much at home on their own floor and did some exceptional long shots. Three especially good ones from about half the length of the floor provided the margin of victory for them. The return game with Pickering Junior High played at Hamilton was won by a score of 50 to 36. This was a well played game in which each of our five boys Lawrence Smith, Philip Trussell, Thomas CvUlen, Robert Caley, and James Parker put in some counters. Also James Trussell, Ray Whipple, and John Neary did their part to put this game on ice. A practice game at Ipswich was disappointing by a score of 42 to 57. This game was featured by the lack of refereeing due to unfamiliarity with the game of the referee asked on short notice to officiate. Sickness of several of our boys also gave us a considerable handicap. Arriving late at Andover for the final game of the year we had little time to get familiar with the very large floor. We had only time to post the team names when the game began. In the first few minutes the score was heavily against our team. From that time on the scoring was about evenly divided between the teams. Not being able to make up the early deficit the final score was 33 to 47 in favor of Andover, The boys were cordially invited to remain for a dance, however, only Robert Caley was gallant enough to take a part. The Eighth grade boys of this year are planning to keep all of the favor- able balances of this year and hope to reverse the others when as ninth grade players they are to do the leading role.

Because Mr. O’Neil, the previous adviser, had been called back to duty by the U. S. Navy, our first project was to purchase a suitable gift which would help Mr. O’Neil and his family remember the happy days spent with us while in Hamilton. A committee consisting of four members, George Jermyn, Maurice Sabean, Janice Blenkhorn, and Betty Walke, were chosen to purchase the gift and as a result of their endeavors, a beautiful set of table lamps was presented to Mr. and Mrs. O’Neil from the Varsity Club. As football season came to a close, the Varsity Club, wishing to show appreciation to our members who were on the team- -both for their hard work and the glorious win over Story High- -presented the boys with a delicious turkey dinner. This banquet and dance enjoyed, not only by our own athletes, but by a visiting Maine team as well, could not have been realized if it were not for the helpfulness and generosity of many of the merchants and townspeople, and as is tradition, everyone had a wonderful time. At Christmas time another of our faculty members left our portals. Mrs. Wilhelmina Kimball, Senior Class adviser and head of the English de- partment, retired in favor of home life. Though we regretted losing her, we wish her luck and happiness always. At a farewell assembly George Jermyn, President of the Varsity Club, presented her, in behalf of the members, a beautiful Japanese plant as a small token of remembrance. On March 15, the Varsity Club, together with the Junior class, presented a very successful Talent Show under the capable direction of Mr. Martini, our adviser. Much credit is due both Mr. Martini and the cast for a most enjoyable and profitable entertainment. Also in early spring, again with the Junior class, the Varsity Club con- ducted a paper drive, which realized a considerable amount for both groups. Throughout the year the Varsity Club has helped many of the student body purchase athletic equipment. As a very enjoyable and profitable year comes to a close, our members look forward to the presentation of the annual athletic awards, and to the high- light of the Varsity Club’s year--the Varsity Club Outing, which is always a memorable occasion.

However, we soon settled down and fell into the academic schedule, if not with good will, at least with resigned determination. 1950-51 was to be a busy term. We were sorry indeed to lose Mr. Towne, Mrs. Kimball, and Mrs. Martini; but were delighted with the replacements, Mr. Blanchard, our new superintendent; Miss McKay and Mrs. Houle, our two new instructors. It was a very pleasant surprise for us to find that Mr. Martini had once again joined our faculty. The six classes elected their officers, with the following results: GRADE SEVEN: president: vice-president: secretary: Fred Proctor Priscilla Holmes John Hurd GRADE EIGHT: president: vice-president: secretary: treasurer: Raymond Whipple Walter Buzzel Ruth Bodge Elaine Titus GRADE NINE: president: vice-president: secretary: treasurer: Barbara Glendenning Thomas Cullen Clifton Jermyn Robert Dodge GRADE TEN: president: vice-president: secretary: treasurer: Theodore Johnson John Carter Betty Henley Wayne Gauthier GRADE ELEVEN: president: vice-president: secretary: treasurer: Maurice Sabean Donald Grant Ruth Crowell Roger Washburn GRADE TWELVE: president: vice-president: secretary: treasurer: George Jermyn Ann MacCurrach Barbara Bennett Laura Tate Then football season started. With Mossie Sabean as captain, our squad played many stirring games. In field hockey. Captain Joan April led the girls through a fine season. Many games were won by our boys basketball team, which was captained by George Jermyn. The girls’ basketball team, too, was outstanding. And through it all our cheerleaders were right in there with their rousing yells. The baseball season is still young, but if the team follows the example of the other sports, they’re sure to be a success. The Glee Club, though perhaps depleted somewhat because of other ac- tivities, is still going strong. It went to Lawrence for its annual radio program, and is now working on the operetta, “ Jeannie,” soon to be produced. The Hamiltonian The Hamiltonian In spite of all these interests, studies were not neglected, as evidenced by the list of honor-rollers, who attained a grade 85% or better in all subjects and deportment for a particular marking period. Spring, characterized by harried juniors and seniors scurrying around trying to find last minute ways to make money for the prom or reception, is well underway. The minstrel show, the cake sale, and the cardselling were all great successes. Now the year is almost over. Some of us will be again coming through these same doors next fall, but some of us will never walk this way again. School is more than learning things and making friends; it is an important part of growing up, of becoming good citizens in a democratic country. As we pass upward from grade to grade, we become a little more experienced, a little more mature, a little more ready to meet the world when we graduate. The process isn’t finished even then, but if you have given school days a fair trial, you will find that the path has been made a good deal easier. commATioNs PAVING A SIDEWALK It was a bright, sunny day in May when a big cement mixer parked down the street from my house. Two men got out and started setting up wooden molds for a sidewalk. As I watched, the rolling, grinding sound seemed to get louder and louder. They worked until almost noontime, laying down the cement and smoothing it out without a bump. At noontime they said that they were going to lunch and for me to stay away from the wet cement. With a last warning, ey pulled the yellow truck out and drove down the street. Seeing them disappear in the traffic, I went over to call my little friend who lived nearby, I told her to bring her pail and shovel because I had a nice place where we could dig. Seeing the wet sidewalk, she decided to start digging. When we had our pails filled we left them in the yard and went in for dinner. After lunch, we looked at our pails and they were very hard, I don’t want to repeat what the men said when they came back, but take my word for it, it wasn’t very nice! Betty Jane Bullerwell - 1953 The Hamiltonian The Hamiltonian DAISY MAE The first time I saw Daisy Mae was at a dilapidated riding stable in Peabody. She was extremely gaunt; her ribs projected from under her shaggy, black coato She had a starved look and little vitality. Yet, there was something about her that attracted me to her; perhaps it was her soft pleading eyes. As I first mounted her, she reared and when I took off her saddle, I found a large, raw, saddle sore. After fixing the saddle so it wouldn’t touch the sore, I mounted again. I perceived that she had a smooth, brisk gait which made her easy to ride. After much persuasion, my father bought her for me and I brought her to Hamilton. I was told that she was a thoroughbred and I obtained the necessary paper on her. With careful feeding, her own clean stall, just enough exercise, and every day grooming, Daisy Mae’s breeding showed clearly. Her thin skin, glossy, black coat and animated spirit proved every inch of her thoroughbred. To me, Daisy Mae was more a joy than a responsibility. I enjoyed groom- ing and feeding her and I received much pleasure in our daily rides. Along the tranquil trails, she’d arch her neck, pick her feet up Mgh and she always wanted to go faster. Once in a while I’d race her on an abandoned race track. She loved it as much as I did. She’d prance with impatience as I crouched close to her shoulders. Then she’d break into a full gallop. I can still hear her thundering hoofbeats, the wind whistling by my ears, and Daisy’s mouth pulling on the bridle. Although I knew I’d miss her greatly, I decided to give her to someone who wished to breed her. As long as I live, I shall always remember everything about her and I am grateful for all my experience with Daisy Mae. Joan April - 1951 The Hamiltonian The Hamiltonian CHARACTER SKETCH -- RELTON ROTEN Relton Roten is an old friend of the family. He is a m in with a great many responsibilities but he is a very capable person. He tea ;hes in a large school; he attends church regularly; he sings in the choir as a soloist and he is often seen wheeling his small son in a stroller. He is an all around wonderful man. So like any other human is Relton Roten that only his red and white cane would tell a stranger that he is an unfortunate victim of the dread sickness-- blindness. I can remember the days when I used to feel terribly sorry for the blind; but since knowing Mr. Roten, my opinion has changed. He seems to know who he is talking to; he can always visualize the beauties of nature, and he is kept well informed of the world wide news by means of his radio. Relton Roten is a living symbol for those who scorn pity for the blind. Joan Benfield - 1952 ON A DREAMER’S NIGHTMARE The night wind howled as I crept along the gravel bank. The big search- lights poked their white beams into every nook and cranny, like white tentacles, trying to find me, to betray my sanctuary. The boats dragged along the shore- line, looking for soft imprints in the mud; the oars made a racket in the oar- locks that sounded like a volley of gvmfire. Feverishly, I filled my pockets with stones, trying to sink myself. Succeeding, I commenced to breath through the willow I had placed in my mouth. The water snakes slithered and slipped over the water, leaving behind little silvery wakes. Suddenly, a shadow, darker than the surrounding light, passed close to me, and I could faintly make out the oars as they passed, scarcely inches above my head. The boat passed on, and I tried to rise. Emptying my pockets, I still failed to float to the surface. Panic gripped me!! Slowly, slowly I sank into the mud, a queer mud, yellowish in color, which made a funny, sucking sound as I sank. I hit my head a terrific blow, and twisting and turning, fell another two feet. You can imagine my sur- prise, when, fighting my way out of that suffocating mess, the sunlight hit me full in the face as my bedroom shade snapped up to its full extent. Lloyd Cann - 1953 The Hamiltonian The Hamiltonian MY BROTHER WHEN ASKED TO COME TO SUPPER In the Jones’ household the usual evening episode is going on, for Bobby Jones wants his own way and is over willing to fight for it„ As we listen in, VIrSo Jones is practically begging Bobby to shut off the radio and come down stairs for his supper. On the other hand, Bobby is trying desperately to per- suade his Mother to let him listen to the end of the program. “Bobby, come down to supper at once, and shut off the radio!!” Mrs. Jones scolds. “Gee whiz. Mom, do I have to come down to supper right now? I’m right in the middle of Bobby Benson and the B Bar B Ranch, and if I don’t hear what happens I’ll just go crazy wondering about it!! Please Mom, be a sport, huh?” Bobby pleads. “No, Bobby, I’m not going to give into you. Come down here at once and let that be the end of it!” Mrs. Jones demands growing angry. “Gosh a boy just can’t win now-a-days,” he grumbles. “Hey, Mom, I bet if Betty and Jane wanted to listen to something you’d let them. Girls can do anything they want,” he said snarling. “No, Bobby, you know the same would go for them, too! Now get down here!” she snaps. So as usual, Bobby is beated and slowly clumps down over the stairs to his awaiting supper.
