What meafzifzg have they for tzuefzlictlz ccvzlzzry Azncricnzz studczzts? VVe could give a simple, surface answer and say that our small, young city of Laconia with its new buildings of brick and wood bears proudly the name ofthe ancient Greek state whose capital was Sparta. But a far better answer involves the disciplines of our education, the roots of our language, many basic institutions of our government, and the very foundation of much of our thinking. For it is the ideas of the great minds of Greece and Rome which have partly shaped our thought and the course of western civilization. In these days of the New Frontier American students of 1962 need to remember that the Frontiers of the Mind may often be found in applying ancient principles from our heritage of the p2lSI. It was Cicero who said: Only in states in which the power of the people is supreme has liberty any abode. It was Socrates who explained: I do nothing but go about persuading you all, old and young alike, not to take thought for your persons or your prop- erties, but first and chiefly to care about the greatest improvement of the soul. I tell you that virtue does not come from money, but that from virtue comes money and every other good of man, public as well as private.

IOANNE TRAPP IACQUELINE SNOW KAREN ANDERSON RICHARD FAIRFIELD AND FUN! l l PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE We, the class of 1962, entered Laconia High School in 1958 as freshmen with a faint dream of becoming seniors. That dream is now materializing. We look back fondly on many events - the first football game each season, our proms, our classes, and soon we will be able to look back on graduationg but more important than all of these memories is the satisfaction which I find, as each of us does, in being a graduate of Laconia High School and a member of the class of 1962.

Giturzar Hicifrsr The class of 1962 has progressed, it has learned, and now the time has come for it to change. Its members must leave the halls of L. H. S. to face new horizons, and to build a strong American heritage for future generations. Regardless of what the future may bring, each member of the Class of '62 will have fond memories of his years at L. H. S. - of the fruitful quest for knowledge, the dedicated faculty, the friendships, the football games, and the unforgettable proms. It is my hope that this yearbook will serve as a pleasant reminder of these through the years to come. My sincerest thanks go to all those whose faithful work has made THE LAKON 162 Possible. , gyda W ' NANCY NAULT Editor-in-Cliief DEDICATION MR. limes H. Leu is a man truly dedicated to his profession. His most outstanding quality is his ability to gain both a student's respect and his friendship. He has been one of the foremost factors in the promotion of a more pleasant and prohtable student-teacher relationship at LHS. The seniors have a special regard for Mr. Leh as he served as our class sponsor in our sophomore year. With re- spect and admiration We, the Class of 1962, dedicate our LAKON to Mr. James Leh. DEDICATICDN MR. ROBERT ALLEX' has paid special tribute to us, the graduating class of 1962, in his dedicated efforts as our senior class sponsor. He is a man with a strong belief in the truth and has shown us that only justice deserves justice. He has helped us prepare for the future by proving the importance of understanding human nature. There- fore, the Class of 1962 has the honor of dedicating its LAKON to its outstanding class sponsor - Mr. Robert Alley.

PIPER, Principal ADMINISTERING LACONIA HIGH SCHOOL The people who make up the Guidance Department - Mr. Clyde Lavine, Direc- tor, and Mrs. Doris Griflin, Counselor - give help to students seeking advice on any problem ranging from choosing a college to solving a situation at home. During the school year Mr. Lavine, who occupied the new guidance office, and Mrs. Griflin in her ofhce interviewed all the seniors to find out what their plans were and to see if they needed help in any way, Both ofhces have ample supplies of col- lege catalogues and pamphlets giving job information. The Guidance Department arranges assemblies and conferences with represent- atives of post-secondary schools. This department does an outstanding work in coun- seling students and deserves our gratitude for their fine help.

Many of the students do not realize the hard Work that there is in keeping the school in order - these people do! They work the switchboard, govern the sign-out sheet, keep the attendance records and Hles, type transcripts, turn out the daily bulletin, and do numerous -other important chores. Our nurse, Mrs. Iones, also works above and beyond the call of duty by providing transportation for the ill and counsel to the down-at-heart.

I-I. S. Eweusr-1 Dsmivrixrawi' The English course for any year is divided into three parts - literature, language, and composition. In his freshman and sopho- more years a student is exposed to essentials in grammar, intro- duced to the various types of literature, and taught methods of writing compositions. In the junior year the student reviews gram- mar, studies American literature, and does more extensive work in composition. The senior year grammar is given a brush-up , but the emphasis is on literature and composition. English literature is thoroughly explored, and compositions become a weekly proposi- tion. This year composition is the particular focus of attention of the whole department. As an experiment, some of the English teachers have lay readers who help in correcting compositions. These lay readers are college graduates - English majors - in the commu- nity. Their help makes possible more composition work. Next year all the English teachers will use this system. Since fall two commit- tees of teachers have been working on the outline of a sequential composition program for the four years. This should insure more consistent growth in composition skill. hx A BASIS OF SUCCESSFUL LIVING I 'U lo F F Q 9 And gladly would he learn and gladly teach. , ,Q l-.-:.f:,,,.4.J -1......., -Q 4 A .- 1--.,.-L-.-.

The Social Studies Department aims to equip the student to cope with the World in which he lives. The program of this department follows a four-year plan: fresh- man year, Social Studies Ig sopho- more, World History fWestern Civilizationjg junior, United States Historyg senior, Contem- porary Problems. These courses are planned to train the student to apply the facts and procedures he has learned, so that he may identify and solve personal, social, economical, and political prob- lems. He is taught to reason critically and objectively in at- tempting to solve these problems. The facts and procedures are the substances of the social studies courses, and it is hoped that work in these areas will develop the described reasoning abilities.

The math student begins with Algebra I which introduces him to the complex world of X, y, and z. In Algebra Il he applies his knowledge by solving involved algebraic expressions and problems associated with Chemistry and Physics. The junior year offers the student either Business Math or Geometry. After success- fully completing three difhcult years, the student then plunges into the real test, that of Advanced Math. Many new and exciting Fields are then open to him, such as Advanced Algebra, Analytic Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. qaarbp fa-by :az-bg The square ofthe hypotcnuse is equal to . . . .l Z Sin: 0-1-Cos: 0:1 if: I Interest: Q Principal J QRatej QTimcj FOREIGN LANGUAGES NEEDED IN TODAY'S SMALL WORLD Row 1: Miss Annis Ford.

More students than ever before are plunging into Latin, French, and Span- ish - the three languages offered at Laconia High School. After studying, in the first year, the basic structures of the languages, the students are drawn into a realm of foreign literature. The Latin students apply their knowledge to Caesar's Gallic Wars while the French and Spanish students read short stories, novels, and poetry in their re- spective languages. In Latin and French the National exams, which indicate the standing of our students as compared with those of other schools, are taken each year by qualifying students.

Clothing, textiles, and grooming are learned First in the freshman year. Then food, nutrition, and meal preparation are taught. In the junior year the girls learn about home management, decoration, and budgeting. Before the challenge of married life girls are briefed on family living. During the classes the home economic teachers, Mrs. Kelso and Mrs. Boomer, take the girls on Held trips to explore the subjects they are taught. Traveling to a super- market is an example of one of these Field trips. V , , H 1 2 ,, ' , -An , .:. 1-V2 T 'Q .'.l .

To aim for the stars was the major project of the Science Club this year. Highlight- ing the fall events was a field trip to Harvard to view its interesting and rather famous electronic accelerator, largest in the United States. A new division, mathe- matics, was introduced at the Annual Science Fair, which was held in March, and created an avid interest among some students. Again this year the L.H.S.

Music of all types is broadcast week-days in the afternoon and early evenings. WLHS has two primary purposes. Students have a chance to an- nounce, to be disc-jockeys, and to play the kind of music they want. The second objective is to learn about radio broadcasting through participating in WLHS. VVLHS wishes to thank the people at WLNH for all their help. WLHS goes on the air. Aixrniaeit Ranto CLUB The call letters of KIOOP are heard quite often after school in the ham shack. The members, who enjoy hearing Hams from all over the world, hope to improve the shack and to buy a better antenna from collected dues. The purpose of this club is to promote knowledge about operating equipment and to extend the interest of amateur radio to others. Row 1: Susan Herrick, Nick Kalfas, Iohn Morrison. Row 2: D. k d P .

Aeronautics Club, whose purpose is to create an interest in aviation even though no actual flying is clone, has had another wonderful year under the direction of Mr. Harper. They have regular monthly business meetings with Films, recordings, or speakers for entertainment and learning. The club is composed mainly of seniors, but because of the numerous activities there are many underclassmen, too. The annual trip this year was made to Connecticut to visit the Wright Aircraft Engine Corporation, Sikorsky Helicopter Company, and the WVinchester Arms Company. ig' -Q,- PARLER BIEN FRANCAIS - THE GOAL OF THE FRENCH CLUB V Jar' -'ul .,.L.-1 Moi, Ie ne parle pas le francais! The French club, directed by Mrs. VVolston and Mr. Colbath, had a very interesting year. Mrs. VVolston's slides of France were presented, along with other speakers and Films. A held trip to Durham to attend some French plays given by the university was a highlight of the year. The aim of the club, to learn about the French people as well as their language, was met by the formation of interest groups - small groups of members who discussed various aspects of the French language. These were so successful that they will probably be continued in the future.

Much of the line running was done by a senior, Dick Powers, who came out for winter track for the First time this year.

The talent for next year's varsity basketball team was developed by the new coach, Barry Reister. The IV's had some outstanding talent this year which has been evident by their improvement in each succeeding game. In view of the strong competition encountered this season, the team has well represented LHS. Coach Reister will naturally be sorry to lose some of his better players to the varsity squad next year. FRESHMAN BASKETBALL To extend the opportunities for basketball players at Laconia High School, a new freshman team has been formed. This is the Hrst time in the history C7fL11COl1l21 High School that such an experiment has been tried, and it has been very successful. Coach Robert Pickett has done a fine job in balancing and coordinating this team with many varsity prospects. These boys have stood up well under stiff competition - Tilton Prep, Brewster Academy, and New Hampton - to show their progress. With such good coaching and enthusiasm that has been shown the Freshman Basketball Team should have continued success in the future. F Row 1: B111 Hawkins, Irm Aldrich, Brad Stevenson, Mark Clark.

COACH DAVIS BUILDS BOYS' SKI TEAM The job of building a top ski team for 1962 was not an easy one for Coach Allan Davis. In the past four years, the team has carried home two championships and two thirds in state titles, creating a reputation for Laconia that had to be maintained. The graduation of five lettermen last year left a gaping hole in the alpine and cross-country squads, but fortune smiled on the good. Egon Zimmerman, a former Austrian Olympic star, and Dick Taylor, one of the top U.S. cross-country skiers, helped Coach Davis shape up his squad of schuss-boomers. The athletic department, under Soc Bobotas, went the full way in aiding the team, making it possible to get some necessary early training at Cannon Mountain.

This gave the opportunity for girls to develop good sportsman- ship, to improve skiing ability, to gain experience through competition, and to have an overall enjoy- ment of the sport, The group discovered that much practice was needed when they met for the first try. Through many practices and bard work the girls progressed a great deal. Thus their racing ability increased.

This year for the hrst time it was possible for the winter track team to hold regular practice sessions in the gym. In past years the team has had to practice wherever they could find empty space, this was generally found in the L.H.S. corridors. Coach Smith felt that more room and better practice con- ditions would improve the LC2llTllS chances.

Because of a record number of Hfty boys turning out for track last year, a large team resulted that showed marked improvement at every meet. The co-captains, Chuck Perry and Ieff Reneau, were two of the fastest runners at L.H.S. in years. jell Rcneau, Chuck Perry, Graysen Johnson, and Sandy Leavitt, being very con- sistent in their Helds of track, qualified for the New Englands at Rhode Island. Graysen especially made a good showing, running New I-Iampshire's fastest time in the low hurdles. Another good turnout and as much spirit should undoubtedly produce another great track team next year. 'X-X-X The Athletic Department proudly announces that three L.H.S. alumni became freshman sports captains at their respective colleges. Ieff Reneau, who broke two cross country records, was elected captain of the U.N.H. cross country team. Ernie Smith was elected captain of the University of Maine freshman football team. Mike Abrahamovieh was elected co-captain of the prep football team at Maine Central Institute.

The Girls Athletic Association helps girls to develop sportsmanship, leadership, companionship. and individual skills. To become a member. a girl must earn sixty points hy attending one of the dillercnt sports, such as field hockey, archery, basketball. bowling, and softball, which are presented sometime during the four quarters of the year. If a girl misses a You think Robin Hood was good! quarter, she has to earn one hundred points during the remaining three quarters. Once a girl is a member she must earn sixty points each year to stay in GAA besides twenty service points. These points are achieved by helping at dances and food sales and by selling candy and shakers for football and basketball games. The money from these projects goes toward the annual banquet where awards are given. Our swinging president!

Once again LHS is proud to boast of its undefeated tennis squad. Under the guidance of Coach lack Lynch, recent graduate of Plymouth Teachers' College, the team secured the State Championship held in Exeter. The State Doubles, played at the same time by the boys who had aquired the greatest number of points, was an all-Laconia linal: Richard Reichert and Ioe Cienty were overcome by Larry Clevenson and Bob Brace. The squad then proceeded to the New England Championship Tournament where they were Hnally defeated. Next year the school is looking forward to an excellent returning squad strengthened by IV team members who may ioin the varsity group. AGILITY 6 CO-ORDINATION ARE NEEDED TO PLAY TENNIS AND GOLF WELL Led by Dean Walker and Ioe Hempel, the Golf team marched through their competitive schedule with only three losses - two against Portsmouth, the eventual state champs, and one against Concord - in fourteen matches. In the state tourna- ment the team suffered when the two top players played sub-par golf, and, as a result, the team ended up in fifth place. Looking forward to the next season, with the loss of only two seniors and ample replacements the team can expect another successful season and a better finish in the state tournament. -,- L- A - , , Mr. Pickett, Mike Hill, Barry Alpert, Ken Davis, Dean Walker fCapt.j, Ioe I-Iempel fCapt.j, Dick Spead, Richard Brindis.

In the spring of 1961, Laconia High School became one of the few public high schools in this country having rowing as a recognized sport. While a dock and shell racks were under construction at Opechee Park, twenty boys, coached by Mr. George Wiesen, eagerly practiced on the athletic Field. The first session on the lake was exhilarating despite the splashingg however, before long the two teams had developed into fast, smooth-working units. In the Boat-O-Rama an LHS team raced and, with little trouble, defeated a team of ex-collegiate crewmen. It is hoped that in the future years crew will be developed into a major sport at Laconia High School.

The paper consists of school news, news of interest to the students, and for social news, the columns on records, fashions, student news, birthdays, books, sports, and exchanges with other student publications. ln the fall of 1961 The Lakoniun became a completely self-supporting school service. In the previous years the cost of running the paper was partially met by the efforts of the advertising staff and supplemented by the Activity Fund. With the dis- continuance of this Fund the paper was faced with a sell-or-die proposition. Yearly sub- scriptions were sold and separate copies were made available each time the paper came out.

The Student Council is a school organ- ization which is vital to the students, the school, and the community. This council derives its powers directly from the admin- istration, but its members are largely the decisive factors in its drive to better Laconia High. The council is composed of members and alternates chosen from each English class. This results in fair representation since English is a required subject. The duty of these representatives is to reflect the feelings and attitudes of their classmates in reference to school activities and functions. President Bacon presides. The first job of the council this year was to work on the general problem of stand- ards for student body behavior in school and particularly at school sponsored events. CNote: The final result of this project may or may not be a printed code of ethicsj Whatever decisions the Student Council makes, the repre- sentatives will reflect the feeling of their classmates in meetings with parent groups, and, in turn, will carry the attitude and thinking of the adults back to their classmates. OUTSTANDING STUDENTS HAVE PLEASURE OF MAKING AWARDS The National Honor Society is an honorary organization consisting of stu- dents possessed with outstanding qualities of character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Approximately half of the members are chosen in their junior year following the presentation of the freshman plaque, the sophomore trophy, and the Out- standing School Citizen Award. Early in the following year the remainder of the group is chosen from the senior class.

The Laconia High School Key Club is currently in its thirteenth year, making it l one of the oldest clubs in New England. Since its chartering in 1949, the LHS Key Club has had the distinction of having four members who were elected Governor of the New England District of Key Clubs, the position now held by Richard Snierson, as well as nine of its members who have served as Lt. Governors. The current Lt. Governor for Divi- sion 7 of the New England District is Ielfrey Stamps. The prime objective of the Key Club is to be of service to the school and thc community, and in so doing to strengthen the responsibility and leadership qualities of its members. This is done by conducting various campaigns and projects througout the year. The LHS Key Club, under the excellent advising of Mr. Colbath, has had a most successful year.

THE FORIVARD MARCHING MAIORETTES HAVE A BUSY YEAR THOUGH LATE STARTING Because of several complications the maiorettes, usually chosen in the spring, were not chosen until October. Practices began soon after school opened. Graduation of the class of 1961 left four openings in the squad. Norma St. lean, the only returning maiorette, became the captain of the new group, which for the lirst time was a completely independent organi- zation under the sponsorship of Miss Buczynski. This year has left many memories - the first performance at Sandwich Fair, the Hrst home game, the constant reminders of Remember to smile, the practices, but most of all, the fun. For the Concord game the girls donned jockey outfits and took part in the band's Cavalcade of Sportsn program, which concluded the football season. The pep and routines of the maiorettes do much to develop the school spirit needed at all of the games.

W ackie proclaims the wonderful news. Your hand, Princess. A soft blend of blue and red tones played on the faces and formals of couples who danced under and around the encrusted stalagmites and stalactites in the Ice Cavesn. A huge web, which began at the entrance and stretched the entire length of the cave, created an atmos- phere of warmth and intimacy. Slow and sentimental music mingled with hushed laughter permeated the room during the entire evening. A lovely girl is like a melody best describes Chip Sanderson as she ascended the throne, the queen of the Iunior Prom. Iane Gagne, Ioyce Gale, Lorraine Brulotte, and Iackie Snow composed the court. i 1 . , , - rms' 1: 1: : r. -, YOU TAP YOUR FOOT, YOU SING ALONG, IT'S THE POPS l 11 - 2 ish! Music Anyone?

TEEN CENTER ADDS SPARK TO THE LIVES OF LHS STUDENTS The Laconia Teen Center was under the director of the City Recreation Depart- ment this year.

In this, chess tournaments are played among the members of the club. At the First meeting, two State Champions from N. H. came to introduce the game of chess to all who were interested.
