LAWRF.NCE HIGH SCHOOL Thirty-one CLASS HISTORY Charlotte Martin. Galen Powers. Phil Stewart C AN it be possible? (This is one question you will nnu many seniors asking them- selves.) Here we are ready to graduate and make our way into the world, when it seems as if it were only yesterday that we came over to Lawrence High School to find our new seats. We thought we were really big, now that we could go off the school grounds for lunch and attend the senior socials. Our first important event was to elect class officers. It was time for a change — Harold Croft was elected President with Vice-president Joan Marshall as his side kick. Octavia Bento was elected Secretary and William Veiga, Treasurer. For sophomores, we were exceptionally mus- ically inclined. The school orchestra elected all sophomore officers. Bob Kenaall was Pres- ident, assisted by Gussie Tollios as Vice- president. Charlotte Martin was elected Secre- tary-Treasurer. The violin section included Mary Tsiknas, Kaleroy Hatzikon, and Ann Dexter. Betty MacDougall bravely tackled the oboe, while Phil Stewart was our blaring trumpeter, and Bob Kendall tried out the drums. Charlotte Martin was assistant pianist. The sophomores were a definite majority of the glee club. In the spring they attended the New England Music Festival at New Britain, Conn., and the festivals at Gloucester and Need- ham, Mass. The glee club fully enjoyed their trips to Boston to see the Mikado and Song of Norway”. Our boys started off their first sports’ year in high school with a whale of a bang! Frank DeSouza, first string tackle; Kenny Smith, Phil Stewart, and Gussie Tollios, halfbacks; Galen Powers and A1 Malzan, ends; Bob Kendall, fullback. Mary and Liz Tsiknas, Joan Marshall, Ann Dexter, Pat Graham, and Kaleroy Hatzikon were our first enthusiastic basketball players. On the boys’ team Kenny Smith, A1 Malzan, and Richard Perry started as forwards. On the diamond Kennv Smith, Harold Croft, and Jerry DeMello made the school team as utility infielder, outfielder, and pitcher, respec- tively. Our first year in Lawrence High, being a successful and happy one, we enthusiastically started off our junior year by electing Constan- tine Dimitrios Tollios as President; Herky Croft, Vice-president; Janet Fenstermaker, Sec- retary; Bill Veiga, Treasurer. To be sure, the juniors hit the highlights in the sport s review. Crusher Bob Kendall crushed opposing linesmen; Curt Smith, Bub Malzan, and Phil Stewart backed him up, with Kenny Smith to carry the ball. On the basketball court we found Shootin Star’’ Smith, his side kick A1 Malzan and Jerry DeMello on the first team. And of course our One-and-Only ( ihank God for little favors) Jack Hadley; Richard Perry, Bob Kendall, and Bernie Balona on the second. Liz and Mary Tsiknas, Kaleroy Hatzikon, Pat Graham, Joan Marshall, Ann Nicholson, Betty Salthouse, Betty MacDougall, and Frances Hil- ton made up the first team on the basketball squad. Janet Fenstermaker and Charlotte Mar- tin were on the second. Some outstanding individuals in our class that year were Robert Kendall who represented us in the Oratorical Contest and the Girls’ and Boys’ State representatives, Janet Fenstermaker, Joan Marshall, Bob Kendall, and Gussie Tollios. Again the music department was well repre- sented by many juniors in the presentation of the operetta, Jewels of the Desert” and in at- tendance at the music festival in Brattleboro, Vermont. Also in the person of our able ac- companist Charlotte Martin. One of our last and most important functions of our junior year was to elect class officers for the following year. Bob Kendall was unani- mously elected President; Gussie Tollios, Vice- president; Janet Fenstermaker, Secretary; and William Veiga, Treasurer. The fall of September, 1947, started our last and best year in Lawrence High School. Social Committee Chairman Betty Freeman and her committee started off our senior year with a gala event. We renewed a practice which has been disregarded for the past few years. It was to initiate all sophomores at a formal initiation dance which was socially suc- cessful and financially a flop.
