GREETINGS To The Graduates of 1954 The creation of original thoughts is difficult, even unusual, since all great ones have been thought many, many times, but we may make them ours and benefit thereby by using them over and over sincerely until they take firm root in our own lives. To think well and clearly the mind, like the body, has to be trained before it can use its powers in the most advantageous ways. We often dream of possessing great powers, but one of the greatest and most sublime for each of us to cultivate is simple patience.

After a few weeks of indoctrination we became used to the habits of a Holten High student. The fear of afternoon ses- sions, warning cards, and, most of all, the little brown bench in the office terrified us; but after a while every- thing worked out quite well. Before we knew it, the year had slipped by and we were studying for our final exams. When we entered the next year as sophomores, we were determined to set a shining example for the new freshmen. We knew how to do every- thing right. Early in the fall we elected our class officers as follows: President, Thomas Powers; Vice-President, Charles Powers; Secretary, Joanne Masterson; and Treasurer, Charlotte Devarenne. We selected as our adviser Mr. Daniel Hogan, who had recently returned from the Army. With his help we put on our first class dance, the Sophomore Hop. The dance was enjoyed by all, and everyone saw the first of many magnificent decorating jobs which our class achieved. In the spring, we were saddened by the sudden death of Mr. Crosby, our beloved assistant-principal, teach- er, and guide. His loss was a great one, but all of us whose lives touched his were greatly enriched by the con- tact. We shall always remember him. Coming soon after were the final exams. Once they were passed, we had the good news that at least we were juniors. As upperclassmen our first act was to elect as class officers: David Stone- hill, President; Peter Duncan, Vice- President; Treasurer, Patricia Pio- trowski; and Secretary, Barbara McElroy, all of whom did a fine job for us. The Junior Prom, under the cap- able guidance of our adviser, Mr. Albanese, was a huge success. Our Junior Prom Queen was Jane Pond. Her lovely attendants were Pat Piotrowski, Doris Getchell, Elaine McHugh, Deborah Hilton, Sandra Kowalski, and Charlotte Devarenne. An addition to the gorgeous decor- ations was the golden glitter on each junior’s hand, the class ring. Later in the year we helped in the creation of the Student Council. When the senior class was gradu- ated, we decorated the gym for their Reception, and realized that next year the dance would be for us. Our senior year crept up on us all too quickly, and we soon knew why seniors are always so busy. As usual our first job was class elections. Dave Stonehill was re- elected President, a tribute to his leadership qualities. Two very popu- lar, hard-working fellows, Peter Dun- can and Leo Devarenne, tied for the post of Vice-President, and we decided to be different by having two Vice-Presidents. Joan Weaver was elected Secretary, and Linda English became Treasurer. Mr. Dunn was elected class adviser. The sports during the year were particularly spectacular. Charles Clark led our grand football team. George Larkin was awarded a wrist watch for being chosen “Most Valu- able Player of 1954.” Captain Peter Duncan led his hockey team through a wonderful and exciting series of fast-playing victories. Five of the hockey players became North Shore All-Stars: Captain Peter Duncan, Charles Clark, David Paradine, Mar- shall Paine, and Mike Tipert. George Larkin was captain of the basketball team, and Hugh Allen won honors on the Northeastern Conference team. The baseball team was captained by Kenneth Rollins, and the track team, by Charles Powers. Carolyn Sheldon was elected captain of the blue team, and Jackie Weaver, of the white team. CLASS HISTORY To add funds to our treasury, the class, with the help of Miss Bonville, held a very successful food sale in December. One of the most important events which every senior looks forward to is the Senior Dance. This year it was held on January 29. Mr. Dunn con- gratulated us on the beautiful decor- ating job which was done. Linda English was our Queen and she was attended by a group of lovely girls: Lorraine Belle, Deborah Hilton, Evelyn Lord, Elaine McHugh, Jane Pond, and Carole Sullivan. In March we put on the hilarious boy-girl basketball game entitled “The Beauties and the Beasts.” The Beasts (the girls) won the game 16-12. In April the Spring Concert was held. Miss Kerans, who was cele- brating her thirteenth anniversary of Spring Concerts, led the chorus, and Mr. Capra conducted the band. As this History goes to press we are looking forward to our Senior Assembly, Class Picnic, Graduation, and finally the Senior Reception. The past four years have been happy ones for us, and we shall leave part of our hearts behind as we graduate. As a class we tried to meet all our responsibilities, and as we go out into the busy world we go with hearts and heads held high — proud of our accomplishments as the Class of 1954. CLASS HISTORY ROOM SCENES OLIVER Onion, the roving reporter of Danvers High, in 1954 made a complete analysis of the mem- bers of the senior class of that institution.

CLASS PROPHECY First row: Charlotte Devarenne, Patricia Piotrowski, Joan Weaver, Joanne Masterson, Linda English. Second row: Leo Devarenne, David Stonehill, Peter Duncan, Charles Powers, Thomas Powers. The class officers that we have had in high school have done their best to run our class activities smoothly and efficiently. During our sophomore year the officers were as follows: Thomas Powers, President; Charles Powers, Vice-President; Joanne Masterson, Secretary; Charlotte Devarenne, Treasurer. Mr. Hogan was the class adviser. In our junior year we elected David Stonehill, President; Peter Dun- can, Vice-President; Barbara McElroy, Secretary; Patricia Piotrowski, Treasurer. Mr. Albanese was class adviser. Our senior year was our busiest. David Stonehill was again elected President. Because of a tie we had two Vice-Presidents — Peter Duncan, for a second year, and Leo Devarenne. Joan Weaver was Secretary, and the Treasurer was Linda English. Our adviser was Mr. Dunn. In order to raise money for the treasury, the class under the sponsor- ship of its officers held two successful functions: a food sale under the chairmanship of Sally Joyce and another affair in March, the Boy-Girl basketball game. CLASS OFFICERS Seated: David Stonehill, Charlotte Devarenne, Mr. Duncan, Jane Pond, William Carlsen. Second row: Dolores Cabral, Sybil Marquis, Betty Nelson, Joan Weaver, Patricia Piotrowski. The Student Council is comprised of members from each of the four classes. Two members are elected from the freshman class, four from the sophomore class, six from the junior class, and eight from the senior class. The class presidents of the respective classes automatically become mem- bers. This year the Council met once or twice a month in Room 40, on Wednesday mornings during the assembly period. Mr. Duncan served as the Council’s adviser. Student complaints usually furnished the main topic of discussion. Students who felt they would like to have their problems discussed by the Council approached a member; and he, in turn, brought the problem before the Council. Since the Council is comparatively new and not too well known, its accomplishments have not been widely recognized, but each year brings hopes of a better high school through the aid of the representatives of its student body — the Student Council. STUDENT COUNCIL Seated: Leo Devarenne, Linda English, David Stonehill, Joan Weaver, Peter Duncan, Dolores. Cabral. Standing: Lynne Salomon, David Paradine, Donald Gauthier, Donald Silvernail, Robert Duncan, Letitia Holladay, Sybil Marquis. The Executive Council was selected by the class officers to help them in their duties throughout the year. It consisted of the five class officers and two representatives from each homeroom. The members were as follows: President, David Stonehill; Vice-Presidents, Leo Devarenne and Peter Duncan; Secretary, Joan Weaver; Treasurer, Linda English; Repre- sentatives Dolores Cabral and Robert Duncan, Room 11; Letitia Holliday and Donald Gauthier, Room 12; Sybil Marquis and Dave Paradine, Room 13; and Lynne Salomon and Donald Silvernail, Room 15. Throughout the year the Executive Council has chosen the Editor of The Onion, planned the Food Sale, the Senior Dance, the Boy-Girl basket- ball game, and the Senior Day Program.

Our Year Book staff, with the assistance and direction of Mr. Zollo, is very proud of this year’s publication, for we believe we have accom- plished the task of making The Onion a bigger and better annual. Among our accomplishments we list a larger amount of textual material, a greater number of pictures, and the creation of a coat of arms. Our greatest achievement was in securing more advertisers, thus reducing the cost of each book to the members of the class. The publication of this book marks the end of our task. To next vear’s class and all those to follow we extend our wish that they may do an even better job than we did.

The Holten, this year, put out some of the finest editions it has ever published. Our Editor, David Stonehill, with the aid of his staff, has really worked hard to make The Holten a success. In order to increase the sales of The Holten, the staff presented a skit entitled “Dragnet” that proved successful. Our art staff did a wonderful job of designing more mature covers. The photography staff did its best to obtain pictures of various school scenes. The Exchange staff kept pen and paper busy as they sent out The Holten to many schools in the state. Our “Knocker” staff was kept on the move every minute in order to collect the latest gossip. A hard- working business staff did a fine job in securing new ads for the magazine. But our magazine could never have been a success without the efficient supervision of Miss Wadleigh and Miss Sherry. THE HOLTEN FRENCH CLUB The French Club, Le Cercle Entre Nous, with the help of Mile. Bonville, had a very successful year. Variety was the keynote of our meetings. We heard several interesting speakers and saw some colorful films on France. There was an exchange meeting with the Marblehead French Club. We also enjoyed swimming, ice skating, roller-skating, and bowling. In the spring the Club took its annual trip to Boston. This year’s senior officers were Jane Gordon, President; Evelyn Lord, Vice President; and Carol Kitehin, Hospitality Chairman. First row: Maureen Ford, Dolores Cabral, Evelyn Ennis, Evelyn Lord, Mile. Bonville, Jane Gordon, Martha Peabody, Marie King, Carol Kitehin, Sybil Marquis.

Flint row: Kolierts Wude, Mrs. Richardson, Maureen Ford. Second row: Clara Perreault, David Stonehill, Diane Blake. In our junior year Mrs. Richardson introduced the Laeti Latini (Happy Romans), whose members had to be third or fourth year Latin students. This year the Latin Club, consisting of seventeen members, had many enjoyable times. In the fall a pot luck supper held at the home of Mrs. Richardson was followed by a bowling party. At our meetings, held twice each month, many talks given by students helped us to learn more al out Roman life and civilization. The highlight of the year was the Roman banquet which is held each spring. The senior officers were as follows: President. Maureen Ford; Treasurer. Clara Perreault; and Program Chairman. David Stonehill. LATIN CLUB First row: Maureen Ford, Pauline Perreault, Julia Bailey. Second row: Richard Martyn. Robert Lendnll, David Stonohill, and Mr. Capra. This year’s hand drew a great many favorable comments for its music and the precision of its marching and its formations fluring the halves of the football games. Our hand and the Beverly High School hand initiated a combined concert which played to a packed auditorium. The selections we nlayed included marches, the song from “Moulin Rouge”, highlights from “Kiss Me Kate ”, and “Oopa Cabana Samba . The biggest success of the year was the concert given by the band and the Glee Cluh. For the first year the concert was a sell-out, and we were mighty proud of this fact. The pieces we played at this concert, in addition to those listed above, were “Begin the Bcrguine”, “Slippery Proposition”. “Dry Bones”. “Phantom Regiment”, and “Washington Post March”. At this conceit we presented a gift to Mr. Capra in appre- ciation for his untiring efforts in helping to build our band into the finest that Danvers High has ever had. We also played at school assemblies and marched in the Chamber of Commerce Spring Festival parade and the Memorial Day parade. The recreational programs the Band Council organized were the biggest and host of any previous year. We had a successful roller-skating party, two howling parties, and an evening of swimming. This year’s senior officers were Secretary, Julie Bailey, and Band Council member, Pauline Perreault.

The annual Spring Concert given by the Holten High Glee Club and the Band was held on the evening of April first. The Glee Club’s program began with the entire chorus singing selections from the operetta, “The Student Prince.” Solos by Barbara Prentiss, Martha Peabody, and Lorraine Belle followed. The girls’ chorus singing “I Whistle a Happy Tuner’ and “Dites Moi”, and the boys’ chorus singing “On tne Road to Mandalay” and “Moon- beams” were particularly outstanding. The Glee Club’s grand finale was divided into two sections: the first comprised the music of Rogers and Hammerstein, and the second one of the most stirring and patriotic medleys ever written. At the close of the evening Miss Rachael Kerans, director of the Glee Club, was presented a lovely bouquet and a gift in appreciation and recognition of the anni- versary of her thirtieth Glee Club concert. Gifts were also presented Robert Witham and Jane Gordon, accompanists. Gaily colored flowers made by the decoration committee under the chairmanship of Elaine McHugh and potted plants served as a stage background, and the lovely pastel gowns worn by the girls carried out the spring theme. Glee Club officers this year were as follows: President, Charles Powers; Secretary, Lorraine Belle; and Treasurer, Maureen Ford.

Another successful Sweater Benefit was held this year under the able direction of Miss Damon. David Stonehill and John Marlowe served as our Masters of Ceremonies. The talent was excellent. Our peppy cheerleaders opened the show by singing a chorus of welcome. A group of the junior girls put on a song and dance number entitled “Singing in the Rain.” The football squad then sang a few selections. Among the soloists we had were Barbara Prentiss, Martha Peabody, and Dave Paradine. Chuck Powers, Dave Paradine, and Freddie LaMon- tagne did their hilarious interpretation of the Andrew Sisters. Joan Knefley and Ann Miller sang several cowboy songs. Ethel MacGregor did one of her dances, as did Beverly Klosowski. Louis Stella, a freshman, kept the hall in silence as he played two excellent selections on the piano. The cheerleaders concluded the program with a farewell chorus sung to the tune of the ‘Whiffenpoof Song.” SWEATER BENEFIT First row: Dolores Cabral, Jane Pond, Sybil Marquis, Lynne Salomon, Joan Weaver, Joan Lee, Patricia Piotrowski, Letitia Holladay, Patricia Fuller, Muriel Wolloff, Priscilla Knowles, Charlotte Devarenne.

This year the seniors worked especially hard to make their last dance a success. The various committees spent much of their time in preparing for it. The invitation committee sent out invitations to the faculty and the school committee. The decorating committee did an excellent job in decorating the hall at the Great Oak School. The title of the dance was the Winter Frolic, and the hall was decorated accordingly. The stage was decked in evergreen trees, surrounding the Queen’s chair which was decorated in white. The walls were decorated in silver cut-outs of dancers beneath a sky of silver stars and moons. In one corner the refreshment committee set up their tables covered with lacy tablecloths. Ice cream and cake was served during intermission. It was apparent that the ticket committee had done a good job, for a very large number of students attended. It is no wonder that the prom was such a success!

The aim of Driver Education is to provide the highways with com- petent and safe drivers, and that is just what it does. Out of the many applicants for this course a limited number is chosen. They meet each Monday morning to learn rules governing drivers and to learn the parts of an automobile. Each candidate does some actual driving one period a week for about fifteen minutes. At the end of about four months the candidates take a written examination and the driving inspector comes to the school to give the actual driving test. Because instruction is so good very few candidates have not been accepted. DRIVER EDUCATION First row: Walter Tipert, Thomas Powers, Marshall Paine. Second row: Coach Raymond Funchion, David Paradine, Captain Peter Duncan, Charles Clark, and Wesley Dacy. The Danvers High hockey team under the direction of Coach Funchion had one of the most successful seasons in years with a record of eighteen wins, two losses, and one tie. The boys brought back the Northeastern Conference Crown, as well as the Tracy Woodman Trophy, to the school. Entered in the “Met Tourney” against Malden Catholic, Danvers High School was given little hope but pulled off the major upset in schoolboy hockey by defeating the defending New England Champs 1-0. The team was comprised mostly of seniors and a freshman goalie who stepped in and helped the team to victory. Charles Clark, Captain Peter Duncan, and David Paradine made up the first line with Bill Saplin, Wesley Dacy, and Jim Brown on the second line. Walter Tipert and Marshall Paine played terrific defense in front of Barry Urbanski. Tom Powers relieved Urbanski in the goal. When the chance presented itself, Coach Raymond Funchion used most of his substitutes. HOCKEY TEAM First row: Marshall Paine, Kenneth Hollins, Charles Clark. Second row: Peter Duncan, John Minihane. Baseball gives the players a chance to show their ability and offers them an opportunity to attain fame as high school athletes. In 1952 the team went through a long, rugged schedule and compiled a tremendous record in the process. In that year Danvers High was invited to play in the state tournament. Unfortunately, the boys were defeated in the first round, but they were not discouraged. They were determined to come back and try again. In 1953 Holten High again produced under the expert guidance of Coach Radulski a championship team and won the Northeastern Confer- ence Championship. Although another tremendous string of victories was recorded, the team did not get the chance to compete in the state tourney. The boys were for the most part seniors now, and as they looked back over the season through which they had come together, they were furnished with many memories which were not soon to be forgotten. -------------------- - BASEBALL First row: Thomas Powers, David Paradine, Charles Clark, Marshall Paine. Second row: Robert Duncan, Kenneth Rollins, Walter Tipert. Our football teams at Molten High have tackled their schedules with unusual vigor and spirit and, in general, have had good results. In 1951 Danvers opened against a strong Woburn team and came out second best by one touchdown. The scene brightened considerably, how- ever, when we rolled up six consecutive victories against strong compe- tition. Unfortunately the team dropped its next three games by close scores, but it ended the season with a better-than-average record. Danvers High produced one of the most powerful teams in the history of the school in 1952. Beginning with Woburn the team rolled up eight straight victories and looked forward to the game with Amesbury, a powerhouse winner of twenty-three consecutive games. The teams had a great deal at stake the day they met, for they were fighting for the Class “C” title. Once again fate had its mark set down against Danvers, and the team was defeated. At the season’s conclusion the team held the excellent record of eight victories and two losses. In 1953 a lack of seasoned players and a string of injuries prevented the team from manifesting its fullest power, and the season proved dis- appointing. The spirit of its teams has made football a very popular sport in Danvers, and the fans have never ceased to be proud of the teams who wore the royal blue of Molten High. FOOTBALL Left to right: Walter Tipert, Charles Powers, and William Saplin. The Holten High track team was a credit both to the school and to Coach Daniel Hogan. With Captain Chuck Powers leading the way, a great interest was built up in the school regarding track. Danvers competed against some of the best teams in Essex County and came out on top on most occasions. Last year Danvers had the best track team in a good number of years, defeating such teams as Salem, Marblehead, Governor Dummer, Peabody, and Newburyport. It placed third in the annual North- eastern Conference. The team won two dual meets and two tri-meets. The outstanding seniors were Captain Chuck Powers, Bill Saplin. and Mike Tipert. Captain Powers participated in the 880-yard run and the relay race. Bill Saplin competed in the high-jump, the broad-jump, and the 220-yard run. Mike Tipert was an outstanding shot-putter. This year all hopes are directed toward winning the Northeastern Conference, thus stimulating in the school an even greater interest in track. =TRACK Left to right: Captain George Larkin, Hugh Allen. The basketball team this year, consisting mostly of underclassmen, did not enjoy a very successful season. Lack of experience proved to be the biggest reason for the team’s ending the season in fifth place. This season’s varsity was composed of two seniors and seven juniors, making a nine man varsity. The team consisted of Captain George Larkin and Hugh Allen, seniors; Captain-Elect Billy Kellenberger, Bob Batura, Leo Plante, Ronnie Winskowicz, Sid Gates, Charlie Brown, and Pete Mackie, juniors. Captain Larkin was leading scorer with one hundred and thirty points. Danvers piled up seven hundred and fourteen points against the opposition’s eight hundred and twenty-six. The team was under the direction of Coach George Radulski, who is in his fifth year as Athletic Director and Coach. BASKETBALL Kneeling: Jane Pond. Standing: Joan Lee, Deborah Hilton, Evelyn Lord, and Doris Getchell. This year’s cheerleading squad, led by Jane Pond and directed by Miss Parrott, put plenty of spirit and pep into backing the school’s team. Besides cheering at basketball and football games, the girls supported the hockey team at some of its most exciting games. In the fall the girls decorated for the successful Trophy Dance given at St. Mary’s Hall on Thanksgiving night at which time George Larkin was awarded the trophy as the most valuable football player of Holten High for 1953. During the basketball season the cheerleaders led the cheers before a most enthusiastic crowd for the Northeastern Conference All-Star Team in the game against Woburn which was held at our high school gym on February 24. CHEERLEADERS Rose Marie Vizena, Betty Nelson, and Martha I’eabody. At the opening game of the season the baton squad presented to football fans its “new look.” Clad in beautiful blue and white satin uni- forms, the fourteen twirlers marched smartly down the field. The fans were amazed to see such a large squad, because in earlier years there had been only a few girls. During the half the girls showed their ability to dance as well as twirl. Their version of the “Bunny IIop” brought a round of applause from the stands. Since that game the girls have gone on to further fame. They have performed at assemblies, the Sweater Benefit, and the P.T.A. Minstrel Show. The girls alone did not bring about the complete “new look.” Without the superb backing of the band, their goal could never have been realized. The school should be proud of the wonder- ful job done by the band and the baton squad. BATON SQUAD First row: Cynthia Merrill, Jane Gordon, Ruth Lewis, Deborah Hilton. Second row: Thelma Tanner, Miss Parrott, Jacqueline Weaver, Janice Rowe, and Carolyn Sheldon. The hockey team of 1950 had a difficult year. The girls fought hard but ended the season with two wins, one tie, and five defeats. In 1951 our team was ready to try for an undefeated season, but our hopes faded when Swampscott beat us by one point in our second game of the season. Many thanks go to Carolyn Sheldon, who did so much to make the year a success. Our third year began with good prospects for an undefeated season, but our dreams were shattered by defeat in the last two games of the year. We had hoped to make our final year a good one. In the first game of the season our defensive team was strong and kept Swampscott score- less. The second game of the season, our first home game, resulted in a tie with Country Day. We had a return game at Country Day, but we were not so fortunate, as we lost 2-0. Our hopes for an undefeated season were gone, but our spirit was high and we won our third game with a score of 2-0. We lost the last two games of the season, but we played hard and did our best. The following girls are to be congratulated for their interest in field hockey: Jane Gordon, Debbie Hilton, Ruth Lewis, Cynthia Merrill, Janice Rowe, Thelma Tanner, Carolyn Sheldon, and Jackie Weaver. GIRLS’ HOCKEY Sitting, left to right: Carolyn Sheldon, Ruth Lewis, Lynne Salomon, Linda English, Janice Rowe, Jacqueline Weaver, Maureen Ford, Marie King, Carol Hilton. Standing, left to right: Deborah Hilton, Betty Nelson, Muriel Wolloff, Lorraine Belle, Jane Gordon, Miss Parrott, Joanne Masterson, Priscilla Knowles, Sally Joyce, Thelma Tanner, Cynthia Merrill. This year there were not many girls out for basketball. In fact, we had just enough girls for two senior teams. Janice Rowe was captain of the first team, and Lynne Salomon was elected captain of the second team. The first team defeated the freshmen by a score of 26-8, and the sopho- mores 26-7. The juniors beat the seniors 19-18, after a very fast and thrilling game. The second team defeated the freshmen 23-9, but lost to the sophomores 15-10, and to the juniors 8-7. Carolyn Sheldon was high scorer for the first team, and Lynne Salomon was high scorer for the second team. GIRLS' BASKETBALL first row: Cynthia Merrill, Jane Gordon, Carolyn Sheldon, Jacqueline Weaver, Deborah Hilton, Joanne Masterson. Second row: Julia Bailey, Sally Joyce, Miss Parrott, Kuth Lewis, Janice Rowe. The blue and white teams of 1951 closed the season with a series of games that were always exciting. The first game was a victory for the blue team with a score of 2-1; the second game was a 1-0 victory for the white team. The third game, the deciding one for the cup, was a decisive victory for the white team that won with a score of 4-0. In our second year of hockey the blue team won the cup for hockey, but it was not an easy task, for the white team was right behind it. In the first game the score was 1-0 in favor of the blue team, and the second game was a 4-3 victory for the blue team. The battle for 1953’s cup between teammates and friends was played with the blue team winning. Our final year for field hockey arrived, and for the girls on the white team it was a very pleasant ending. The first game of the series was a 3-1 victory for the white team. The second game of the series wasn’t as easy for the white team, for the blue team’s defense was right on the job trying the best it could to keep the white team’s offensive players from their goal, but all the efforts were in vain as the ball slid by the goalie. The game ended with a score of 1-0 in favor of the white team, and Jackie Weaver was awarded the cup, which she was thrilled to receive for her team. =BLUE WHITE TEAMS Congratulations and Best Wishes For The Future to the Graduates of HOLTEN HIGH SCHOOL Class of 1954 Sylvania Electric Products, Inc.
