In these pages, lies the story of the four years we have spent here at Killingly Highjgathering knowledge and making lifetime friendships. Although we need no reminder of the happy hours spent here, we are presenting this yearbook, to serve as an emblem of those days to which we can never return. Our memories are many, but there are some more treasured to us than all and these will live on forever. We think happily of our Junior Prom, the days we didn't do our homework, or the time we forgot our lines in the Senior Play. How can we ever forget our undefeated basketball season, along with all of our outstanding accomplishments in other sports? With pride, we think of the many honors which have been heaped upon those of our classmates who were the most deservingg but nothing can ever compare to the thrills we experienced through working together as a class. Neither can we forget the many pleas- ant hours spent among friends and the little moments of laughter and excitement that made our school days so unforgettable. We have been touched by sorrows too, but our happy times so greatly outnumber the sad, that we think back with contentment and thankfulness. This yearbook marks the inevitable end of our four carefree years. We are ready now to face responsibility and to lead others in the paths we have tread. For the very last time, we thank our teachers and say good-bye to all as we face the future with hope and confidence. -2- DEDICATION Mn. FRANK is. Koss We are dedicating our yearbook to Mr. Koss to express the gratitude and deep admiration we have for him. This admiration began when we were freshmen and it has increased gradually as we learned just what a wonderful person he is. Mr. Koss has taught us more than our lessons. We have learned to grow u and assume responsibility through his great understanding ancil tolerance. With his unswerving sense of jus- tice and his kindness, he has gained the sincere respect of every student. We sincerely feel that it has been a great honor to have known him and to have benefited through his wisdom and maturity. Thank you, Mr. Koss. ...3... DEDICATION LINDA SYE NVOrds eannol express the deep sorrow we lfelt in the loss of our fellow classmate, Linda Sye. Her pleasing charm and quick wit made her one ol' our most popular members. XVe shall for- ever remember her as a girl possessing striking beauty and a bubbling personality. She was always full ol' fun, and her natural humor brightened up many a dull moment. Linda has earned a permanent place in the hearts of her many friends. It is with great pride that, we the class of l957, dedicate our yearbook to her. -4- SCHOOL BGARDS x HONORARY DEDICATION In appreciation for what the Boards of Education have done to make our Killingly High School diploma and our four years here mean so much to us, we make this 'honorary dedication. The Boards of Education have guided our un- dertakings, they have promoted the high standards of our students in sportsmanship, scholastics and leadership, and they are directly responsible for the honored reputation our school can claim today. ..5....

At that time, all too proudly wear- ing our emerald birthstones, many of us con- sidered ourselves definitely educated. As Sen- iors we have changed our views, and now we realize that education has a different mean- ing and is even more far-reaching than secon- dary school. To the few who are unaware of our ac- complishments, I should like to present this, our class history, which includes some of the more interesting events which have transpired during a memorable four years' stay in Kil- lingly High. FRESHMAN YEAR October 7, 1953. One hundred and thirty- one Freshmen, under the guidance of Mr. Frederick Oliva, filed into Room 17 to hold its first class meeting. The following officers were elected: George jackson, 'Presidentg Richard Cunneen, Vice-President, Nancy Cun- neen, Secretaryg Richard Chabot, Treasurer: and Willie Wexler, Historian. The dues were set at fifty cents. A like increment was to be added on in each of -the following years. The representatives of our class on Kil- lingly's undefeated football team were: Aarno Hassell, Hugh Weaver, Richard Cunneen, Richard Chabot and Nick Ayazides. On january 22. 1954, Loretta Veilleux, Saralee Rose, Bev Nash, Searls Dearington, and David Methe were the class representa- tives in the Annual Spelling Bee. February 12, 1954. On this evening, the Freshman Class held its annual informal dance, Sweetheart Special. The gym was decorated in a valentine theme with red and white hearts and streamers. The music was provided by Ernie Briere's orchestra. ln the twenty-ninth annual Speaking Contest, held in February, the Class of 1957 was represented by Bev Nash and Saralee Rose. Though neither placed among the win- ners, both girls did a fine job. Before we knew it, june came upon us, and we survived our ordeal as Freshmen. SOPHOMORE YEAR September 17, 1954. The Class of 1957 held its first class meeting as Sophomores, with 115 members returning from the original 131. Those elected to represent our class were: President, Richard Cunneen: Vice-President, john Sarantopoulos, Secretary, Nancy Cun- neen, Treasurer, Aarno I-Iassellg Historian, Nick Ayazides. Our earliest endeavor was the selecting of our classfring, the El Dorado. On the afternoon of February ll, 1955, the Sophomore Assembly was held in the high school auditorium. It consisted of a magician act, a variety of popular songs and a talented tumbling group. Much credit goes to Mrs. Kesaris, Mrs. Bond, Mr. Carroll and to all the participants for their efforts in making the assembly a success. january 14, 1955. Those who ably repre- sented our class in the Annual Spelling Bee were: Saralee Rose, Robert Chartier, Robert Bazinet, Judy Smith and Sally Hassilla. The thirtieth Annual Speaking Contest was held on the evening of March 10, 1955, in the KHS auditorium. Saralee Rose, a member of our class, was unanimously chosen as re- cipient of first prize for her rendition of Bud- die's Big Moment. Ellie Farfaras also repre- sented our class and did a very creditable job. April 29, 1955. The Sophomore dance, Moonlight Carousel, was held. The decora- tions of Barbara Cripps were made to repre- sent a Carousel. Again Ernie Briere's Orches- tra was chosen to provide a musical back- ground. May 18, 1955. After much deliberation, five sophomore cheerleaders were chosen 'by a group of teachers and the junior cheerlead- ers. They were: Ellie Farfaras, Saralee Rose, Betty Emond, Millie Hewitt, and Judy Knight. On May 27, 1955, five sophomore major- ettes, Roberta Lawton, Bev Nash, Barbara Swaggart, Barbara DesRoches and joan Park- er were chosen by Mr. Payne, Mr. Zambarano and the junior majorettes. JUNIOR YEAR On September 29, 1955, the Class of 1957, under the guidance of Mr. Frank Koss, held its first class meeting. The officers elected were: Ben Greene, presidentg Richard Cun- neen, vice-president, Ellie Farfaras, secretary: Aarno Hassell, treasurerg Saralee Rose, his- torian. ..4Q.. The .Iunior Informal, Autumn Leaves, was presented on the evening of October 27, 1955. The gym was lined with numerous trees and bright colored leaves: corn stalks, and pumpkins were artificially arranged on the walls. Henry Devuyst and his orchestra fur- nished music for the occasion. ln the Annual Spelling Bee held on Janu- ary 13, 1956, two juniors, Bev Nash and David Methe, captured second and third places re- spectively. Other participants from our class were Ben Greene, Cecile Lupien, and Sally Hassila. The thirty-first Annual Speaking Con- test, held on March 15, 1956, again saw our class in the prize-winning column. Barbara Cripps received third prize and Pat Chapman received honorable mention. Enchanted Evening, the most success- ful junior Prom in K.H.S. history, was pre- sented by the Class of 1957 on the evening of April 27, 1956. ,The gym was exquisitely de- corated in a Cinderella theme. Illuminating silver-pink castles lined the walls. Sparkling silver slippers hung from the false ceiling, whi-ch was done alternately in pink and pur- ple crepe paper. The finishing touch -was the silver pumpkin in which the queen, ,ludy Knight, sat to be crowned. Her attendants were Ellie Farfaras and Saralee Rose. Approxi- mately seventy couples enjoyed dancing to the rhythmic music of Bill Pardus and his orches- tra. The beautiful decorations were due to the tireless efforts of Barbara Cripps and her committee. One of the highlights of our junior year was our class play. Underthe able direction of Mr. Kiley, we presented Spring Prom'Ma- gic in the school auditorium, May 17 and 18. The story dealt with the problems of a teen- age girl who had a crush on the most popular boy in her class, and her subsequent struggle to get a date with him to the forthcoming Spring Prom. The two casts included: Ellie Farfaras, Bev Codding, Clarise Houle, Paula Maki, Arr- drea l.ockhart, Cecile Lupien, Cora Kibbe, ludy Knight, Millie-Hewitt, Adeline Gingras, Sharon Hillmann, Doris Provencal, Betty Emond, Bev Nash, Saralee Rose, Elizabeth Sandholm, Barbara Cripps, Christina johnson, Linda Sye, Barbara Swaggart, .Barbara Des Roches, Roberta Lawton, Christine Sarantop- oulos, Bob Nielsen, Hugh Weaver, Bob Char- tier, Ben Greene, Alfred Schings, john Wright, Aarno Hassell, George Viens, Richard Cun- neen, Pat Chapman, Dave Methe and Nick Ayazides. Toward the end of our Junior Year we selected Loring Studio as the photographer for our yearbook. SENIOR YEAR September 7, 1956. Under the guidance of Mr. Herbert J. Brine, the class of 1957 today met for the first time as Seniors. The follow- ing officers were elected to represent our class in its final year. President, Ben Greeneg Vice- Presitlent, Richard Cunneeng Secretary, Ellie F arfarasg Treasurer, Aarno Hassell, Historian, Nick Ayazides. The event which came at the head of a long list was our class play. Let Me Grow Up, a comedy in three acts by Anne Coulter Martens was presented by the Senior class on the evenings of December 5 and 6, 1956. The two casts included: Ellie Farfaras, Saralee Rose, Sally Hassilla, Cora Kibbe, Linda Sye, Eleanor Eischet, Barbara Cripps, judy Smith, Barbara Swaggart, Roberta Lawton, Elizabeth Sandholm, Bev Nash, Clarise Houle, Doris Provencal, Ben Greene, Dave Methe, George Viens and Nick Ayazides. The play was not only a financial success, but also a dramatic success, due to the much appreciated direction of Mr. Brine. Ellie Farfaras was chosen by the faculty as the recipient of the coveted DAR Good Citizenship Award. In the Annual Spelling Bee, held on January ll, 1957, Adeline Gingras brought honor to our class by placing second. Other participating Seniors were: Ellie Farfaras, Cora Kibbe, Joan Parker, and John Wright. On january 18, 1957, the Senior Hop, La Fiesta Espagnole Plaza de Toros fThe Spanish Fiesta of the Bullfightj, was held in the K.H.S. gym. The fabulous orchestra of Tommy- Masso provided the music. Ellie Far- faras was crowned Queen, with Roberta Law- ton and Adeline Gingras as attendants. Shortly after the close of the first semes- ter, Mr. Fisher announced the Valedictorian, Ellie Farfaras, and the Salutatorian, Cora Kibbe. In the thirty-second Annual Speaking Contest, our class was ably represented by Elizabeth Sandholm and Barbara Cripps. This year would not be complete without mention of our undefeated basketball team. It has been the greatest asset in bringing fame to both our class and school. The Seniors who did a marvelous job on the Varsity team were: Mike Castagna, Ben Greene, Walt Sliva, Jim Riley, Bob Chartier and Dick Cunneen. On April 26, 1957, the high ranking Sen- iors, Ellie Farfaras, Cora Kibbe and Pat Chap- man were inducted into the National Honor Society. In order for a Senior to receive this recognition, he must have maintained a 90 average throughout his four years. QContinued on Page 90j ..41..

Pat- Bob- Yes, it certainly is, but we would be polishing stars right now if Barbara adn't organized the Star Polishers Union. Pat- I would be cleaning the Golden Gate. I've never seen anything tar- nish as quickly as that gate does in this atmosphere. Barbara-Look! There's a hole in this cloud. Let's see what's happening on earth. Well, I'll be a left handed harp play- er, there's Danielson right below us. Barbara-I can see the Shell Gas Station. Dick Cunneen is pumping gas for a cus- tomer. Bob- Pat- Don't let his humble appearance fool you. He's become a rich man since he discovered that new atomic gaso- line, XXXXXX2. Bob- Who's that giving all those orders? She certainly looks familiar. Pat- It's Eleanor Eischet. She joined the Navy after she graduated from nurs- ing school and now she is a Lieuten- ant Commander. Barbara-That's right. She married an Anna- polis graduate. There's Glenn Dexter, just leaving Grant's Store. Danielson' is certainly proud of him. He organized the most efficient Air Observer Corps in the country. Barbara-Who is that washing windows in front of the store? Pat- Bob- Who else could it be but Tommy Keech? Pat- Did you 'know he was offered a role in The Life Story of james Dean and turned it down because he hated to leave all his girl friends in Dan- ielsonP Barbara-Gosh, some of our old classmates have really become famous. Look at Ellie Farfaras. Bob- Pal- Barba ra Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara 44- Yes, she became the first woman Vice-President of the United States. And Barbara DesRoches is the new majorette on the Super Circus Show. -I've heard that all the women in the country are complaining about her. Their husbands won't take their eyes off the T.V. set while she's on. lsn't that Nick Ayazides rushing for work-late as usual. Yes, but he can afford to be late now. He is manager of George Bis- sonnette's big chain grocery store. George specializes in selling par- snips. -Could that be Beverly Codding at old K.H.S.? Yes, she teaches soil conservation to Eskimos. Poor Beverly, that's the only subject she can teach, but she's an expert on it. Look at the name of the team that's playing basketball down there. The Dizzy Dribblersf' Bob Chartier and Walt Sliva are co-captains. Walt has grown a foot since our senior year, so he doesn't shoot basketsg he just drops them in. -They are playing against Killingly's undefeated team which hasn't had any trouble since Mike Castagna be- came basketball coach at K.H.S. Have you heard about Cecile Lu- pienP She's the first female dentist that Danielson ever had. That's right. All the men in town go there. -Lookl There goes Gerry LeBlanc. He's night watchman at the A 8: P you know. Let's watch him and see where he goes. Xvhy he's walking into that little shop. -Say, see the sign over the door-Lane and Ledogar's Lazy Cocktail Lounge. Flash always wanted a business of his own, and he and Ledogar were always partners in school. Look over there in that deep jungle! lsn't that the great George Viens, hunter of fierce butterflies? -Yes, George always did like to hunt, but why he hunts butterflies is be- yond me. They certainly don't have much meat on them. Bob- Pat- Barbara Pal- Barbara Brill- Pal- Ba rha ra Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara Bob- Pa!- Barbara Boll- Pal- Cora Kibbe helps him give them Latin names. She's a good biology teacher now, even if she is afraid of the little fuzzy worms the kids bring in. Take a look at that factory over there. It makes Pigskin Suits. Ronnie jussaume decided that football play- ers would have a better chance if they could disguise themselves as the ball, so he makes suits that look just like footballs. -Is that Christina johnson sprawled out on that hospital floor? Yes, she's a terrific nurse, but she can't stand blood, and she faints at the mere sight of it. Maybe Roberta Lawton, nurse-and- part-time-floor-mopper, will revive her. -Did you see the new car washing es- tablishment in town? It's owned by R. Barrette, I... Jacques, R. Trahan, and R. Law. Yes, it operates in a very unusual manner. So l've heard. They use elephants to wash the cars. -lt sure avs off es eciall for the customeds with childjren. They lock the kids in the car and take off for a few hours. The kids love to watch the elephants. Look at thatl A lady forgot to close her windows and she got all wet. It's Barbara Swaggart, the world fa- mous woman skin diver. -I guess a little water doesn't bother her. No, but I can't understand why so many people dive for skin in the first place. Oh Bob! There's a movie at the Or- pheum about skin diving. Maybe it will give you an idea what it is all about. -Well how about that! There's a wo- man usher. We never had women ushers here before. Well, leave it to Miriam Stetson to be the first one. Say, there seems to be a talent show going on at the theater. -Let's watch it for a few minutes. Maybe we'll see some of our old classmates. You're right. Look at that weight lifter. His face seems familiar. It should. That's Allen Solomon, the world's strongest man. -45- Barbara B017- Pa!- Barha ra Pat- Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara Bob- Pat- Barbara B ob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara Boh- -Who's that group that just came on stage? They're called The Three W's. Re- member them? Arnold Whipple, Hugh Weaver and Willie Wexler. They've become famous for their an- imal impersonations. In fact, VValt Disney always uses them on his Mickey Mouse Club Show. -Speaking of Walt Disney, Ronnie Mathewson draws for him and gets a salary of 315,000 a year! Everyone in the country reads his comic strip, Matt The Mole. l think I see some of our friends in the audience. Yes, there's .john Wright. -His pictures are seen all over the world. That's right. He's a model for men's vests. He always did seem to like vests. Remember the ones he wore in high school? ls that Adeline Gingras on that quiz show? -Yes, every week she must spell a new word, or else lose all her winnings. She always was a good speller. Whee, who is that doll? Don't you remember Bev Nash? She just got an Emmy for the picture My First Romance. -Our class has produced a lot of en- tertainers. Saralee Rose, noted wo- man wrestler, has just retired from the ring. Say, isn't that Judy Smith? Yes, she has a great inferiority com- plex because she almost drowned giving a Red Cross swimming in- struction course. -I can't believe itl Is that Chris Sar- antopoulos teaching French? Who could imagine that? Yes, Mrs. Bond convinced her she would be a great teacher. Personally, I think it was a big mistake because no one knows what she's talking about. Look at Barbara Desjardin sneaking into that store. She's buying a little bottle of something. -Red hair rinsel VVhy, I always thought her hair was natural! Well, the other red head in our class, Nancy Bolduc, has real red hair. Pal- She's a famous artist now, but the only things she can draw are little animals to be used as designs for animal crackers. Barbara-Look at poor Sally Hassila. She was Bob- Par- fired thirty times because her long finger nails got stuck in the type- writer. We have some teachers in our class I see. jerry Gingras is teaching agri- culture at Vassar. Odd! -lim Riley is professor of physics at W.P.I. They say his know edge em- barrassed the professor when he was a freshman. Barbara-Well, look who's directing traffic on Bob- Pat- Main Street. It's Loretta Veilleux. Who ever thought she'd be a policewoman, even if she was on traffic squad! Did you see that? She just shot a pedestrian for jaywalking. It's about time the traffic laws were being en- forced down there. Barbara-VVho's that stately looking woman Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pat- that she's helping across the street? It looks like Andrea Lockhart. It is Andrea. She's famous for her new theory of teaching. -Yes, she originated a system to help fill in for the lack of teachers. That's right, she uses trained apes. I t seems to work well. I should think it would. I wouldn't dare talk back to an ape. Barbara-Is it true that Sharon Hillmann and Bob- Pal- Barbara Bob- Pa t- Paula Maki run the greatest Pizza Pie Stand in Danielson? Yes, and Val Smurra helps them. Didn't she used to spill ice cream over the counters at Deary Brothers? -Yes, but she's very good at this job. Pizzas are hard to spill. I think that prosperous looking man is Bob Harwood. He runs Harwood's Cadillac Sales and Service in Dan- ielson, but' he can't get enough cus- tomers, so he's going out of business. Too bad Alice Chase can't give him a loan. She just won the Irish Sweep- stakes. Barbara-Yes, but I've heard she's very stingy with her money and spends it all on European Tours. Bob- Pat- Clarise Houle was her maid on one tour, but she talked so steadily that Alice fired her. What do you know! Joyce Hermans had quadruplets at the Day Kimball Hospital! Barbara-Guess that will keep her from talk- Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pal- Barbara Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pat- B a r-ba ra Bob- Pat- Barbara Bob- Pat- 146.- ing on the phone all day! Dr. George jackson says they are very healthy, but have lungs just like their mother. While we're here, let's see if any other of our classmates are in the medical profession. -Yes, there's Dave Methe. He's head' janitor here. But that's not his only job. He does secret research on bed bugs in his spare time. Joyce Polanski is his assistant, but she's not much help because she's afraid of bugs. -Speaking of bugs, john Sarantopou- los owns the only Cockroach Farm in the world. just what do people do with cock- roaches? Nothing much. That's why his is the only Cockroach Farm in the world. -There goes Ben Greene. He was sup- posed to amount to something great, wasn't he? Yes, he's Vice Admiral of the fleet. A few weeks ago he was lost in the fog in his little fishing boat and it took the Coast Guard ten hours to find him. How humiliating! Look at those girls with short skirts. Wowl -Please Pat, those are the professional cheerleaders, Millie Hewitt, Judy Knight, and Betty Emond. It must be hard to find jobs at their age in such a profession. Remember how Betty Sandholm used to make her own clothing in high school? -Yes, she certainly was talented. Is it true that she designs earmuffs? Yes, and joan Parker models them. She always did have cute ears. Aarno Hassell has just designed a new plane the M-100. His fearless test pilot, Dave Mahon, says that the brakes must be put on 1,000 miles from the airport to avoid a crash. Barba rn Bob- Pat- B I1 rim rn B 0 11- Pal- -Pat Moran and Doris Provencal are the co-owners of Homer's Hideaway. That sounds like a joint! Oh, no, it's very respectable. After all, you know what quiet people Pat and Doris always were. -There's another little store. Rule- stela's Fruit Stand. Does Pat sell fruit now? Yes, but a very special kind raised by Cathy Coolidge. I've heard that Pat lets Cathy do all the work, but that she gets most of the profit. That's just a rumor. The real story is that Cathy sneaks the fruit out and sells it at higher rates and keeps the extra money! Barbara-I've heard that the Alfred Schings Bob- Corporation ran General Motors out of business. That's gratitude for you! He's very rich now, but he still rides in that Ford with the loud-muffler. Pnl- What ever happened to Pat Czu- pryna and Nancy Pike? Barbara--Oh, they're partners in a pencil com- pany. That doesn't sound like a very good job: just selling pencils. But these are special pencils. Any time a student finds that he isn't prepared for a test, he lets Pat and Nancy know. Then they make a pen- cil with all the hidden answers on it. -Those poor teachers. I wish I had one of those when I went to school! Gosh! 1 hate to break up our little reunion, but it's time to be getting back to our jobs. l can just see the Golden Gate now. It must be covered with tamish. -It's too bad that it isn't made of stainless steel. Well, good-by for now. We'll get to- gether again on our next vacation. and .Pal-So long.

A itf . 1: The football season this year was one which everyone had been waiting for. There was a very large turnout of underclassmen be- cause the word had spread of Killingly's pros- ects of a very good season. Practice at the field started September 1, but sorry to say only a few players remained the whole season. With many lettermen returning Coach Snia- dack and Assistant Coach Kiley had good ma- terial to work with. Although hampered by injuries and the ineligibility list the Redmen turned in a spectacular season with a record of six wins, one loss, and one tie. Led by the Co-captains George Viens and Hugh.Weaver the Redmen had one of the better seasons in the school's history. The season opened with Plainfield High, which resulted in the first victory for Killingly. The Enfield game, which was an easy victory for Killingly, had disastrous effects on the team because of two injuries which kept the two first string halfbacks, .Iussaume and .-Rubin, on the sidelines for almost the rest of the season. The next game, which was supposed to be our toughest, was also an easy victory. Led by George Viens, Hugh Weaver, and jim Riley the Redmen proved to be too strong for the Stonington Bears. The Rc-drnen traveled to Mary E. Wells the next Saturday and met its first defeat of the season. Revenge lor their first loss was taken ont on Griswold High by trouncing them soundly. The next two games were played at the .-Xltnnni Field and proved to be very difficult ones for Killingly. In the first game Killingly nipped YVoodrow Wilson by a margin of one point, while in the second game Killingly had to be satisfied with a tie score. The seniors who played on this year's team are as follows: George Viens-Co-captain, filled in the guard spot and was one of the men picked on IC.C.C. He also scored two touchdowns from this position. Hugh Weaver-Co-captain, outstanding tackle, who kept the moral of the team at its highest. He was voted to E.C.C. in his junior year. -lim Riley-Fullback, jim's terrific drive and fire played an important role in every game. He was elected to E.C.C. for second year. tflontinncd on Page 905 ,58- 4. f , .L -g 1 -ami QQ! KKK! ,pn 25 gl if xv BASKETBALL The team turned out early in November, and even then, the coaches and captains were predicting a very good season. Under the coaching of Mr. Nichols and. Mr. Berthiaume, the Redmen worked very hard for the on- coming season. The basketball season was even better than predicted. Led by co-captains Mike Castagna, Ben Greene, jim Riley, and Walt Sliva, the Redmen went on to an undefeated season. With Mike Castagna and Ben Greene doing the scoring, and WValt Sliva, jim Riley and Bob Chartier doing a good job on the lloor, the Redmen finished their regular sea- son with I9 wins and 0 losses. The team did very well in the tournament except in the semi-finals where they met their only defeat of the year. With a shooting percentage of 207 the Redmen couldn't possibly keep pace with Seymour High School. The team, through the generosity of the townspeople, has been given beautiful jackets for -their very fine basketball record. The following members contributed to the leam's success: Mike Castagna-Co-Captain, high scoring, for- ward, who led the team in the point col- umn, voted to the Eastern Connecticut c:UIli.Cl'CI'll'C in his junior and senior years. Ben Greene-Co-Captain. He played a great part in the record of Killingly through his spirit and enthusiasm and led the players on to victory. He was elected to li.C.C. lVult Sliva-Co-Captain and tall center for the Redmen. XfValt was known for his great spirit. and his will to win. jim Riley-Co-Captain. jim was the big re- bounder on the squad and was known more for his outstanding defensive work than for his scoring ability. He also had the spirit and fight to bring to Killingly a winning team. Bob Cllmrtier-Starting forward who was the tallest player on the team. He contributed ll great deal to the success of the Redmen. Other players who played an important role in the victorious season are: seniors, Ar- nold Whipple and Dick Cunneen, juniors, Paul Caron, Martin O'Connor: sophomore, Wayne Lis and freshman, Tom Singleton.

With many returning lettermen Coach Sniadack has hopes for a jvery good season. The season hasn't started yet, but the Redmen have been prac- ticing very hard, and are looking forward to their first game. Every position is filled at present, and with a little good luck the boys should be able to make this one of the better seasons. With a little strength on the mound and with good hitting and fielding, the team should have a very fine season. Coach Sniadack is working very hard to bring up some of the better freshmen so that they may be used as good reserves. The returning lettermen from last year are: Ron jussaume, Ron Mathewson, George Viens, Mike Castagna, jim Riley, Ar- nold Whipple, Dennis McShane, and Roger Privee. The three fielders who are expected to start are George Viens, Ron Jussaume and Roger Privee. The veteran infield consists of Arnold Whipple, Ron Mathewson, Mike Cas- tagna and Dennis McShane behind the plate. The moundmen are Richard Emond, Jim Riley, and Gordon Lane. -63.. TRACK VL fa L.

All track- men were waiting for the oncoming meet with Griswold High School of Jewett City, who in the past have given much trouble to the Kil- lingly Redmen. The boys have been practic- ing very hard, and hope to have a- very good season. The competition is going to be very hard to subdue, but with a great deal of deter- mination and spirit the Redmen should have a victorious record. Mr. Nichols has had the boys out for practice every day, and believes that with good hard work the trackmen should be in very good shape for their oncoming com- petition. With only, a few returning lettermen Mr. Nichols has a lot of hard work in front of him to build a good track team that. will bring victory to the name of Killingly in the field. After the Griswold meet, the Redmen will travel to Plainfield to offer competition to the Fielders. With the finish of the track season, the Redmen will attend the Connecti- cut Relays. In the past the Redmen have only done average, but the hopes are that we will be a credit to the name of Killingly. The returning lettermen from last year's team who will contribute much to a victorious season are: Dick Cunneen, Jack Weaver, Cliff Aubin, Roger Privee, Ray Veillette, George Viens, Bob Harwood, and Ulo Murd. ..64....

Many boys have shown interest in it. To date no matches have been played, but they have been scheduled. Coach Nichols is anticipating a good first year for this spogt and hopes it may develop into one of Killingly's better sports. The seven seniors who will be leaving the team after this year are George jackson, Tommy Keech, Ben Greene, Bob Chartier, Jim Riley, Dick Cun- neen and Francis Ledogar.

Under the direction of Miss Cunningham, the Sports Club came into being again this year. The club is organized for the benefit of the girls who like sports and are willing to participate in them in order to earn their numerals, letters and charms. ln order that these awards would be more of an honor and a worthy goal to strive for, a strict ,point sys- tem was adopted. This year's activities included: volleyball, bowling, badminton, basketball, tumbling, CHEERLEADERS You can stop racking your brain for a solution as to where the Redmen got their encouragement to win. They couldn't lose, and if they had, it wasn't the fault of the dynamic spirit of the K.H.S. cheerleaders. The cheerleaders are to be complimented for introducing many new and harmonious cheers, also for stimulating school spirit. This year, Miss Cunningham was their very able supervisor. ..67.. field hockey, and movies on different sport techniques. The annual Beat Putnam Dance , spon- sored by the club was an enormous success: for it pulled the team through an almost un- defeated football season. Results of the elections held in early Oc- tober were as follows: President - Roberta Lawton, Vice-President - Maureen Markely, Club Secretary - Marilyn Grennon, Record- ing Secretary - Barbara King, Treasurer - jean Nielson, Freshman Delegate- Liz Law- ton. The spirits of '56 and '57 were, Seniors: Saralee Rose, Ellie Farfaras, Betty Emond, Judy Knight, Millie Hewitt.

The group meets during the week to express their artistic talents. The projects of the club for this year were: sport, political, and strip cartooning: fashion and automobile designing: poster sketching for the band-choral concert and the science fair, building robots for the advertise- ment of the science fairg and perspective study. The members included Kerry Brown, Ronnie Mathewson, Walter Ainsworth, Albert Chabot, Austin Adams, Ruth Manttari, james Mercier, Shirley Dvarcas and Annalise Graff. Latin Club The Latin Club started off its year with the election of officers. Those elected were Fred Ricci, president: Larry Eastwick, vice- president: Martha Pike, secretary, and Sandra Page, treasurer. The next big event which every Latin Il member looked forward to was the initiation of Latin I members who wished to join the club. This was a great success and loads of fun for all members. A trip was planned for this spring which would have taken the club to the Providence Arena. However, on account of the number of other school activities, the trip was can- celled. Let's hope that the Latin Club next year will be able to take the trip it missed this year. Killonian Staff This year our traditional KlLLONIAN newspaper was under the direction of Mr. Ernest Champagne and Mrs. Betty Brennan. Many thanks are in order for our two advisers who have shown the utmost patience and in- terest. The KlLLONIAN was first headed by Ben Greene who was later succeeded by Mary Atsalesp the co-editor is Larry Eastwick. The newspaper is one of the many fun activities of Killingly High, into it go the actual thoughts and aspirations of the student re- porters. All memorable data of the school is recorded, in the KlLLONIAN . Many stu- dents have kept a collection of the different issues for a period of four years, and in keep- ing them they have succeeded in obtaining a resume of memories of their years at Kil- lingly High School. Traffic Squad The Traffic Squad, under the ca able supervision and direction of Mr. Frederick I. Oliva, has done an excellent job of keeping order in the halls of Killingly High School. The purpose of the Traffic Squad is to facilitate the changing of classes in an or- derly system. To become a member of this organization, students must be nominated by the teachers and voted upon by members of the squad. This organization has proven itself many times and is an excellent tribute to the school. The officers for the year were: Captain .......... George Jackson Lieutenant . . . ..... Aarno Hassell Sergeant . . . .... Loretta Veilleux Executive .... ..... B en Greene Executive ......, Richard Cunneen Spelling Bee Many of our students were back again this year to show their ability at spelling. The annual spelling bee, held this winter, singled out the best spellers of K.H.S. The winners have real talent which was brought out by the spelling words. The words were very difficult and the winning contestants should be con- gratulated for their fine job. ..80- First prize was given to a junior, Maureen Markley. Maureen represented her class well this year. Second prize went to a Senior, Ade- line Gingras, who is also a credit to her class. Carolyn Cooper won third prize and is an outstanding student in her sophomore class. Credit should also be given to Mr. Brine, who directed the spelling bee and dictated the words. Debating Society The Debating Society of Killingly High School had an active and interesting year. During March we were well represented at the Springfield Model Congress by Pat Chapman, Louise Tessier, Roberta Terwilli- ger, and Carol Romppainen. Pat introduced a bill calling for federal aid to higher educa- tion: unfortunately it was killed in commit- tee. The Model Congress lasted for two days with the delegates returning home at the end of each day. Mr. Martin and Mr. McSweeney went along as advisors. This year for the first time, the Danielson Chapter of Elks sponsored a public debate with Plainfield High School. The winning school receives a large trophy, while the win- ning debaters receive individual trophies. Re- presenting Killingly were George Jackson and Patrick Chapman on the negative side. On the affirmative side were Dorcas Brown and Linda Lyons of Plainfield. The debate question was resolved: 'That the Federal Government should sustain the prices of major agricultural products at not less than 9073 of parity. The decision was in favor of the affirmative. Speaking Contest One of the more entertaining events of tl1e year was as successful this year as it has been in the past. The Thirty-Second Annual Speaking Contest, under the direction of Mr. Frederick Kiley again brought out the drama- tic talent that some of the K.H.S. students POSSCSS. Prizes this year were won only by Sopho- mores and juniors. First prize went to Richard Watson, a sophomore, for his strong, vibrant presentation of The Creation , a Negro Ser- mon. Mary Atsales, a junior, received the se- cond prize for her chilling piece The But- ton which was the theme of an insane man in prison. Third prize for Thirty Pieces of Silver was won by ,another sophomore, Mar- tha Pike. This piece was about the betrayal of Christ by Judas Iscariat. Helvi Karro was awarded Honorable Mention for her piece, Mrs. Snicklefritz and the Four C'Cl0ck Train , a dialect comedy. The evening was made more enjoyable by a stnall group of musicians including Ro- berta Lawton, Paul Peabody, Linnea Lind- strom, Elizabeth Lawton, Lynn Balfour and Barry ,Spencer who played musical selections at intervals during the program. National Honor Society To be admitted as a member of the Na- tional Honor Society is the greatest honor that can be bestowed on a member of the gradu- ating class. Sponsored by the National Associ- ation of Secondary School Principals, the S02 ciety gives this honor to those students who have maintained an average of 90? or over for the four high school years. The students must also have shown leadership, good char- acter, and a willingness to serve the class and school. Those who have been selected from the class of 57 are: Patrick Chapman, Eliza- beth Farfaras, and Cora Kibbe. This year a new plan for choosing pro- visional members has been started. It is be- lieved that by being picked in their Junior year and made honorary members, the Junior students will be encouraged to keep their marks at 9092, or above. It is also hoped that this new part of the Society will encourage other students to try to raise their marks and make the National Honor Society a more in- tegral part of the school. Those who have been admitted as provisional members are Cynthia Gedney, Barbara King, Maureen Markley, Carol Nash, and Hzila Peterson. 1811 Student Advisory Council The Student Advisory Council was or- ganized under the supervision of Mr. Brine. Its main objective is to become an active council which could bring up the problems, ideas and questions of the students to the principal and teachers. During the year the council served as guides to the parents on Parent's Night. The following officers were elected early in the year. President ..... .... B en Greene Vice-president .... Dennis McShane Secretary ..... .... S andra Page Treasurer .... .... A arno Hassell The Future Nurses. A Future Nurses Club of America was started at K.H.S. in September with a mem- bership of about 30 girls under the guidance of Miss Mary Gibney, the school nurse. The club's aim is to provide a program of field trips, speakers, and movies to aid the girls in deciding to become nurses and if so, in what phase of nursing they would like to specialize. The Future Farmers of America The F.F.A., under the excellent super- vision of Mr. Gaffney, has done an outstand- ing job this year as always. Several of the many activities of the F.F.A. have been the recreational dances, the selling of cider, and the sponsoring of newspaper drives for rais- ing funds. The boys have also excelled in keeping the school landscaping in trim. The officers elected this year are: President .......... Gerald Gingras Vice-president ....... Arthur Tracy Secretary ....... . . . john Wright Treasurer . . . .... Earl Clements Sentinel . . . .... Bob Bowen Reporter .... .... U Iohn Biurke The Future Teachers of America The Future Teachers of America Club was formed early in 1957 for the purpose of acquainting students with the teaching pro- fession. The groucp is under the helpful lead- ership of our gui ance director, Mrs. Bernice Niejadlik. Membership totals thirty and the officers include: President-Beverly Codding Vice-president-Maureen Markley Recording Secretary-Margaret Evans Corresponding Secretary-Barbara DesRoches Treasurer-Robert Chartier Historian-Elaine Linkkila Librarian-Carolyne Montstream Parliamentarian-Catherine Champlain Song Leader-Carolyn Cooper Meetings are held on alternating weeks. Activities include both field trips by club members and visits to the group by student teachers from near-by colleges. The first field trip was made by three elected delegates who, accompanied by the club's sponsor, were 'sent to represent the group at a Connecticut Association of Future Teachers of America meeting at Hamden, Connecticut. Upon their return, these dele- gates gave an informative report so that the other members could also benefit from the experience of their representatives. A similar trip to visit Danbury State Teachers College is in the planning stage. Perhaps the high- light of the year was a visit to the group by two students from Willimantic State who told them about student life at that Teachers Col- lege. .-82.-. Boys' Glee Club The Boys' Glee Club is a recently formed club at Killingly High. Although it is only in its third year it has increased in,both quality and quantity. The boys worked very hard preparing for the Christmas Assembly, the Spring Concert and Graduation Exercises. However, much credit must be given to Miss Carpenter. This year membership pins were given to those boys who have participated in the Glee Club for three or more years. With the addition of more voices we can expect greater performances from the club. Band We wholeheartedly salute the band for the marvelous work it has done in helping to make our last year at Killingly a happy one. A very special tribute of thanks to Mr. Robert A. Spencer for his untiring efforts in working with the band to achieve its admir- able standing. The band began this season by lending its support to every home football game. It especially sparked up our last rival game with Putnam by a spectacular drill pro- gram in which the majorettes donned their Indian headdress carrying ottt the traditional REDMEN theme. its next project was pre- paring the Christmas Assembly which was done in co-ordination with the different choral groups. The specialty of the year presented by the band was its .Spring Concert. This took place on April ll, also in co-ordination with the choral groups. This event will always be a memorable one in that it afforded its audi- ence with an evening of pure pleasure. At this time, awards were presented to students participating in all band activities for a per- iod of three years and majorettes for a period of two years. The two trips granted to the band were a trip to Bushnell Memorial in Hartford to hear the Connecticut All-state Band and Choral Groups , and a trip to the University of Connecticut to participate in the Music Festival . Girls' Glee Club The Girls' Glee Club, under the direction of Miss Carpenter, which is composed of girls preparing for the chorus groups next year, has done an excellent job this year, especially in the Christmas Pageant and the Spring Con- cert in which it participated. The Spring Con- cert was a tremendous success as the auditori- um was packed for the occasion. Miss Car- penter also plans to have the Club take part in graduation exercises this coming june. Mixed Chorus The Mixed Chorus is a popular group for boys and girls who enjoy singing. This year was a very successful one, as was proven at their animal Spring Concert. The Concert was a tremendous hit as all those who at- tended will remember. With the increasing in- terest shown by the students in the choral groups this year, Miss Carpenter is looking forward to an even bigger number partici- Pililng next year. .-83... SENIOR PLAY Y af.

Junior Play Class of 1957 On May 17th and 18th, 1956, the class of 1957 presented Spring Prom Magic , a three act comedy. Presented in the K.H.S. auditorium and including an exceptionally large cast, it was directed by Mr. Kiley. The play was about Terry Allister, a pretty high school student, who was determined to get Warren Spade, a star high school athlete, to ask her to the Spring Prom. In order to attract him, she decided to make herself over with the aid of her mother, Grace. Selfish, haughty Ursula Peabody wanted Warren to ask her to the Prom Night and tried to disgrace Terry by dishonest means. Everything looked as if Ursula would win, but just as Terry was giv- ing up hope, Ursula's plan went into reverse. Warren asked Terry to the Prom, the situation resolved itself happilyg and a fine time was had by all who attended the per- formances. -89... FOOTBALL tContinued from Page 587 Ronnie Jussaume-Halfback, spitfire of the Killingly backfield. What he lacked in size he made up in mental acuteness and speed. Walt Sliva-End, started playing in his junior year and immediately proved his catch- ing ability, also elected E.C.C. Aarno Hassell-Halfback, invaluable as a line- backer and as a hard charging back. john Sarantopoulos-End, one of the spark plugs who led the Killingly Redmen to a victorious season. Nick Ayazides-Halfback, the toughest player on the team: his will to win helped the team very much. Dick Cunneen-Quarterback, Dick has been an outstanding field general and has var- ied his attack so as to bring victory to the Redmen.
