Published by the Senior Class of LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Falmouth, Massachusetts O ' ZS 40 DEDICATION Mr. Mills intently watches his pupils’ pro- gress. Mr. Earl H. Mills displays his ever-ready smile. With President Kennedy’s emphasis on physical fitness and 50- mile hikes, the spotlight of interest has been turned more fully on physical education departments. Lawrence High School has awaken- ed to the fact that our championship football, basketball, track, baseball, and cross-country teams of the past and present owe much of their success to Mr. Earl H. Mills. The spirit of good sportsmanship is as inherent a quality in our teams as is their athletic ability. Both these attributes are bred through Mr. Mills’ efforts in his gym classes. During the first two years of association with this instructor, boys emerge from the gym with aching muscles, results of attempts at an excessive amount of push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups. Soon, however, with encourage- ment and coaching from Mr. Mills, these boys develop their skills. Sportsmanship is taught more by example than by instruction. Smiling but firm, Mr. Mills evokes from his pupils the will and determination to excel. Although his job of teaching gym to every pupil in four grades is extremely time-consuming, Mr. Mills has made space in his schedule to act as coach, referee, speaker, and friend. He organized our soccer team and acted as temporary coach until a permanent one could be found. At present, he devotes much time after school and in the evenings to working with the gymnastics team. While passing through the girls’ gym, he often stops to give the basketball team needed advice. At sports assemblies, Mr. Mills is very satisfied with doing the work of introductions and allowing coaches and team members to receive all the praise. Above all, he offers encourage- ment and a ready smile to all. 2 , pubVic l arv fa l m °u,A ■ 0 25 0 ImoutK ■ ■ ”■ fa MR. MARSHALL’S MESSAGE . Mr. Russell B. Marshall, Principal In this country the task of preparing for citizenship is the foremost problem faced by every educational insti- tution. We have an ideal, the ideal of democracy. In practice we frequently fall below this ideal, but it serves its function nonetheless. Democracy’s ultimate safeguard is the enlightened conscience of the citizen. Being a government “of the people, by the people, and for the people,” it must depend for perpetuation upon the moral integrity of the people. The schools have helped each of you to form the right basic habits, personal attitudes, and emotional reactions required in good citizens. It is my earnest hope that through the years the graduates of L.H.S. will by their actions, interest, and cooperation hold precious the ideals of democracy. The young people of tod ay have a great responsibility, the responsibility of carrying on the ideal of democracy and applying it to the many problems facing the world. The dignity of humanity, one of the essential concepts of democracy, requires that racial antagonisms be mini- mized. Your school life has contributed to both your understanding and appreciation of the customs and habits of other peoples. Your faith and belief in the future of democracy, demonstrated by the inception of the AFS program for next year, must contribute to the cause of peace. These are the ideals of democracy. Your adherence to them can be your great contribution to a better life. SECRETARIAL STAFF Mr. Merson’s hard-working staff is composed of Miss Martha Tavares, Miss Alberta Donahue, Executive Secretary, and Miss Regina Peck.

Six shillings cost,” proclaimed the large scroll letters of the introduction to Falmouth’s first history, compiled over 200 years ago by an unknown clerk. At that time, Falmouth already had a century of history; records of births, marriages, and deaths since the first settler arrived in 1660. The fountain at the village green The early settlers realized the value of training minds as well as hands to work in this new, rough, sandy-soiled land. Public records, like those which had been kept in the old days in Europe, had to be made, and each At Nobska Point Falmouth grew in size yearly with the arrival of new families with children whose education had to be determined. The Katharine Lee Bates’ house Falmouth Harbor year, town meetings sat for proceedings which had to be set doivn on paper. Manual labor wrested a living from sea and shore, and mental labor recorded it — a silent witness to the works of man in Falmouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony. A roaring fire, Bibles, and hornbooks were the educational surroundings of the first Falmouth students. 4 Falmouth Town Hall Falmouth Community Center Hard ivork and large families were the order of the day for Falmouth, and learning out of a book in those days rarely went beyond the sixth grade, with only such individuals as selectmen and clerks continuing their education to assume the responsibility of putting quill to paper to record the happenings in the modest, little town. A small school house contained the extent of Falmouth education until the early 1880’ s when Shubael Lawrence, wealthy descendant of an old and respected Cape family, gave a parcel of land to the community , on which to build a school for students who wished to study beyond the sixth grade level. His only condition concerning this gift ivas that the new school be named after him. Thus, on March 7, 1885, Lawrence Academy was incorporated. Scarcely thirty students, and sometimes as few as ten, made up the student body of Lawrence Academy in the early years, presided over by a single teacher and principal. Under the direction of Mother or an older sister the flickering firelight was the setting for recitation of ABC’s from the hornbook, the Lord’s Prayer, hymns, and bible passages. Falmouth’s own Ichabod Crane arrived in 1 720 — a schoolmaster hired for the yearly salary of board, room, and meals. His material was basic, consisting of little more than an elaboration of the home-spun education which had flourished before his coming. L.H.S. across Shiverick’s Pond 5 Ho iv ever, Mr. Lawrence realized that Falmouth’s commercial life was destined for constant growth, which occurred so rapidly that Lawrence Academy acquired a superintendent , another teacher, new quarters, and a new name. Lawrence High School was built in a toivn which saw its boys abandoning farm and sea for trade and storekeeping and its girls looking beyond cradles and stoves to toivn life and ivork. The Teaticket School The Margaret A. Mullen School The Henry Ward Hall School The Woods Hole School Immigrants arrived from other states, as ivell as from across the sea washing the shores of Cape Cod. Massachusetts laiv made education compulsory up to sixteen years of age, and even Lawrence High School became too small for the ever-increasing number of Falmouth scholars it rang to classes every day with its old bell. Both name and student body ivere again inherited — this time in 1952 by a neiv brick building across Shiverick’s Pond, a long, high structure built in old colonial style, with a cupola, and a golden clipper ship for a weather-vane. The Class of 1963, largest class to graduate from Lawrence High School, is a chronology in itself, as closely united with the Town as was the school its members attended. This student saga began in the basement and on the first floors of the Village, Woods Hole, Teaticket, and East Falmouth schools, and progressed to entrance into the fifth grade when Teaticket and East Falmouth schools terminated their part in the education of the Class of ’63. 6 With the world of crayons, Alice and Jerry, and recess left behind, The Class of 1963 entered the 7th grade, already truly cosmopolitan. The Woods Hole School donated its share of students, many of ivhom were from families connected ivith the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Marine Biological Laboratory , Eel Pond at Woods Hole At Diane Smith’s 10th birthday were Nancy Soares, Nancy Burrough, Pam Leach, Diane, Carol Motte, Joan Motte, and Marilyn Nutter. and the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. Within these three concerns, work is forging ahead in the field of natural science. Just this year the Albatross IV and the Atlantis II were launched, and a neic Oceanographic laboratory was constructed. Many members of the class attended summer school, Woods Hole style, by spending six weeks during July and August enrolled in a science school course at the Woods Hole School — from “ Seashore Life” in muddy sneakers to “ Astronomy ” ivith its uniques nocturnal field trips. However, this international flavor permeating the class has not ceased with the converging of all the members of the Class of ’63. Otis Air Force Base, formerly Camp Edwards, has brought the savor of many a southern accent, and many a western license plate to Falmouth, Atlantis II Nobska Light — Woods Hole ■■Pi : ■ ’ New MBL lab— Woods Hole and hence to Falmouth’s high school, which has been greatly enriched by those students who come from service families. Each has brought with him some ' piece to put into the broad, patchwork cultural heritage which the Class of 1963 holds. Now, when these students leave with the rest of their graduating companions, perhaps they will carry away a part of LHS which may be as Cape-Cod bred-and-born as that which they put into the school and the class ivas Phoenix or Oshkosh-born. With plans in the air for the arrival of a foreign exchange student by means of the Falmouth branch of the American Field Service, there is no real way of telling how far abroad the vistas of Lawrence High will go, as succeeding classes will stand in the same position as the Class of ’63. Still, there are those who are native to Falmouth who have brought just as much to Town and school as have any number of world travelers who have passed the way of a L.H.S. curriculum for a year or more. Certain things affecting Falmouth personally , are close to home, such as the new Intermediate School for grades six through eight on Jones Rd., and the new Falmouth Hospital, standing near completion on Ter Heun Drive, visible from the windows of our school.

For Falmouth students, these two new additions to the Town, may have a very vital effect. No doubt many who may enter the world in one, may grow up in the other, ready then to enter Lawrence High School and reach for a diploma as the members of some future graduating class, perhaps to return some day as teachers, doctors, or nurses. It may be that the old must move out to make way for the new in life just as a class leaves and another takes it place. Yet there remains in this town the same spirit ivhich moved the Falmouth of some 300 years ago. In LHS, there has been much in the way of new courses, such as CBA Chemistry , PSSC physics, and Modern Math. The library has ordered books which have aligned Falmouth a little more closely with the world. With new discoveries made each day, the graduates of ’63 can look up and away to a world which is xvaiting, just as the world awaited for those early settlers who turned from the land to the skies. People of many different backgrounds have revised and enhanced the spirit of our school and will continue to do so in the years to come, no matter how many students pass through the doors. The Police Station The Fire Station Falmouth National Bank The Congregational Church There has not only been book-learning here. The Class of 1963 has gained experience ivhich cannot be measured in grades or scores. The practical knowledge of living together is the very essence of the Town of Falmouth. As was shown so vividly in the Basketball Tournament games, Falmouth and LHS are inseparable, and in this way our school and town are all the richer — looking forward to a future with both scholarship and sportsmanship in school and town reaching upward and outward. 9 CONTENTS ADMINISTRATION .

FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION One of the greatest contributions to the Senior Class has been made by the faculty, not only in the imparting of academic knowledge, but also in the encouragement of scholastic and individual goals. At this time, we would like to give our special thanks to Mr. Merson and Mr. Marshall who have made rules for our benefit and have given us all possible privileges for enjoyment, as well as opportunities for class and individual recognition. Also, we would like to express our gratitude to Mr. Olenick and his staff of counselors. All these people have helped make our high school years memorable ones, and we are very grateful. • -i : ; YiWfrMm ■ • . •• , ; ; ,v • . , . . • : ■ ' Pictured are Mr. Harry: SlyMerson : , Well Taught Basic Skilh R.

The outstanding success of the Senior Class has been brought about by each individual and more especially by the officers who have done their best to guide our actions. In general, we are grateful to John Knispel and Todd Merrill for assuming the responsibility for us as a group and to Diane Smith and Dianna Cook for carrying out their respective duties. We are also indebted to Derna Grenga and Lewis White for planning our social functions. This year has been a truly memorable one and will not easily be forgotten by any of us. .John William Knispel Anna K. Harper Award Beverly Burwell Anna K. Harper Award D.A.R. Good Citizen Brotherhood Representative National Merit Finalist Honors Presented The Anna K. Harper Award in memory of Mrs. Harper, who was Mr. Marshall’s devoted secretary for many years, was established in 1962 to succeed the Henry Smythe Award. Each year, the award is given to the Senior boy and girl who, in the opinion of the class, best exemplify the qualities of loyalty, honor, and service. The Falmouth Association of the Daughters of the American Revolution sponsor an award for the senior girl who exemplifies the fine qualities of citizenship and leadership. The recipient is chosen by the Senior Class and the faculty. The Student Council chooses a student to be the recipient of the Brotherhood Award. This prize is important because it shows that good will and friend- liness toward those of other races and creeds is culti- vated in our students. An object of pride, this award is meaningful to the remaining pupils who realize that one door to education is through a sincere un- derstanding of others. 20 Carlotta Mary Hayes Letter of Commendation Orrin Todd Merrill Letter of Commendation Sandra Marie Cooke National Merit Finalist Betty Crocker Award National Merit Winners This year’s seniors excelled not only in sports but in scholarship as well. Seven members of the class received National Merit Letters of Commendation. In addition to the six pictured, Beth Fling was also awarded this honor. Beverly Burwell and Sandra Cooke attained the rank of Finalists. Although neither Lee nor Sandy received a scholarship, the honor which they and the other winners brought to Lawrence High School will long be remembered. Out of the nearly twelve thousand girls who took the test in Massachusetts, Sandra Cook placed second in the Betty Crocker Search for the Homemaker of Tomorrow. For her outstanding performance, Sandy received a five hundred dollar scholarship to Oberlin and a Betty Crocker Homemaking pin as a reminder of her laudable achievement. Susan Margaret Pasley Letter of Commendation Norman H. Vine Letter of Commendation 21 SENIOR SUPERLATIVES Best Dancers Pat Handley and Brad Smith MR. AND MISS LHS Best Leaders Lee Burwell and John Knispel Best Looking Mauralee Williams and Wayne Ferreira Superlatives are not just empty awards; they reflect the opinions of the class regarding their “mostest” classmates. Lee Burwell and John Knispel have been ac- tive in all phases of high school for the past four years. The once-quiet John Martin emerged this year as a mas- ter of sarcasm and humor and was appropriately voted Wittiest, along with Dianna Cook. Dianna has long de- lighted her friends with her outgoing personality, and she was chosen Best Natured, also. Joe Ingram, noted for his laughter, shared this honor. The Most Artistic members of the class have received previous recogni- tion of their talent. Derna Grenga, who has done art work for the Falmouth Playhouse, was recently award- ed honorable mention, while Peter Jacoby won first prize, at the All Cape Cod Senior High Art Exhibition of the Cape Cod Art Association in Hyannis. Pat Hand- ley and Brad Smith have displayed enviable facility doing the latest dances and were consequently voted best in this field. Mike Generous and Wayne Ferreira have formerly received no tributes to their good looks, except for sighs from various admirers. In the fall, Carolyn Ferreira’s pulchritude was recognized when the school voted her Turkey Day Queen, while Maura- lee Williams was chosen Junior Miss, a tribute to her beauty, poise, and charm.

Mauralee Williams presides as Miss Junior Miss of Falmouth. Queen Carolyn reigns with court of Christine Bogdan, Mauralee Williams, Beverly Luckraft, and Mary Lou Aldrich. AWARDS Several students have brought honor to Lawrence High School during the past year. Mauralee Williams was chosen Miss Junior Miss by the Senior Class and entered the pageant in Hyannis as our repre- sentative. She received awards for her personality and talent. Another “royalty” was Carolyn Fer- reira, Queen of Turkey Day. She reigned at the Barn- stable football game with her court of Mary Lou Aldrich, Christine Bogdon, Beverly Luckraft, and Mauralee Williams. Academic representation was seen in Todd Merrill who attended the National Science Fair in Chicago. He was selected from boys all over the country who showed an interest in science and mathematics. We are all very proud of these students for their contributions to Lawrence High School. We Were Freshmen Standing out clearly in the minds of all of us is the day we entered Lawrence as “green” Freshmen, and led by Mike Finnell, began our high school careers. Todd Merrill was Vice President that year, while Joan Nutt and Diane Smith acted as Secretary and Treasurer, respectively. Derna Grenga and Joe In- gram, as Social Chairmen, planned our varied activi- ties. At the same time, Lee Burwell and Brad Moses were representing us on the Student Council, while Ed Mello carried out his duties as Senator. Our first money-making project was the “Turkey Trot” which played against a harvest scene on Novem- ber 20, 1959. April was chosen for the traditional Min- strel Show which, judging from the proceeds, proved to be quite successful. The show revolved around a small community on the “other side of the hollow,” which enabled us to name the program “Hootin’ Hol- ler.” The leading characters, selected by our class ad- viser, Mr. Sidney Roberts, were Paul Olenick, Modera- tor, and the six endmen, Lee Burwell, Todd Merrill, Lois Smith, Nancy Swan, Ed Wells, and John Wood- cock ; this group put on an unforgettable performance. In the spring, Carolyn Ferreira and Derna Grenga were chosen regular cheerleaders, and Betsy McGilvray became an alternate. As the year came to a close, the last of the three main events took place: the memorable Freshman- Sophomore Prom. The decorations, developed from the “Stairway to the Stars” theme, included a stairway in the center of the gym with low-hanging blue and white crepe paper. Carolyn Ferreira was chosen Queen with Ingrid Frank, Judy Parker, Dale Grissom, and Judy LeBlanc as her court. Thus, our first year in high school came to a close. 1.

Richard Dupee, Beth Fling, and John Knispel do a commercial. 25 Then We Were Sophomores By the time we were Sophomores, we had started to make ourselves known to the rest of the school. Under the presidential thumb of Ed Mello, the traditional activities were launched. During the Fall, things started off right with Chiv- alry Week. Never were there more gallant males than those in our class! Of course, this chivalry, or lack of it, was rewarded at the dance which closed the week. Our glow then subsided when we realize d that more money was needed in the treasury. A candy sale was chosen to improve the financial situation. Everyone joined in and the project was a delicious success. Assisting Eddie Mello in his task of governing the class was John Knispel, our Vice President. Diane Smith, again Treasurer, and Joan Nutt as Secretary. Carolyn Ferreira and Ed Wells were the social Chair- men. Lee Burwell and Judy Conley represented us on the Student Council throughout the year. Another prospect loomed large and exciting: class rings. A vote was taken to decide which style to choose, but here we ran into difficulty. The vote was split! To solve the dilemma, two styles were ordered, and thus, everyone was satisfied. Proudly wearing our shiny new rings, we made big plans for the traditional Bean Sup- per. That year, those who attended got “two for one,” a supper and the pleasure of our dramatic presentation, Bull in a China Shop. The excitement lulled for awhile, but began to pick up again later that month when Twirp Week commenced. The boys lorded over the de- fenseless girls for seven days and repaid the “favor” done them in the Fall. This exciting year for the Class of ’63 was too soon over. 1.

President Ed Mello crowns Queen Beth Fling at Sadie Hawkins Dance while escort Brad Moses looks on. 26 Suddenly We Were Juniors Our Junior Year started out profitably when we put on a successful candy sale through which we raised a large amount of money. The annual Snow- ball was the next event which we sponsored. The formal was held in the Marshall Gymnasium, beau- tifully decorated in blue and silver. The theme of the dance was “Palais de Glace,” and Nancy Pease was chosen Queen. Her court consisted of Beth Fling, Sandy Morris, Lois Smith, and Mauralee Williams. Our next money-making project was the selling of decals which sported the Clipper ship emblem. Unfortunately, this plan was not too successful ; five thousand were ordered, and we had a difficult time trying to get rid of them. Early in the year, President Brad Moses made an innovation in class government by initiating the the practice of having a cabinet. One person was chosen from each homeroom to assist in collecting money, distributing tickets, and planning social functions. These people, who considerably relieved the burden placed on the class officers, were Dick Broadbent, Ann Gifford, John Knispel, Judy Par- ker, Bob Robbins, and John Winslow. Paul Olenick served as Vice President that year, and Beth Fling was Secretary. Diane Smith re- newed her post of Treasurer, while Derna Grenga and John Martin were Social Chairmen. Lee Bur- well had moved up to the Vice Presidency of the Student Council. Judy Conley and Bob Robbins served as Representatives, and Ed Mello, re-elected to another two-year term, continued as Senator. 27 JUNIOR YEAR In the Spring, cheerleaders were again chosen, and Derna Grenga and C arolyn Ferreira became co-cap- tains. Nancy Burrough was selected as a regular, while Betsy McGilvray automatically assumed that position. Sandy Morris and Judy Conley were chosen as alter- nates. The last activity which we, as Juniors, sponsored was the annual Junior-Senior Prom. Its theme was “Ver- vain,” and it was probably the most beautifully dec- orated dance ever held in Lawrence High. Fresh flowers covering the gym realistically depicted a gar- den. In the center were two ponds joined by a bridge and surrounded by lovely floral arrangements. In one corner was an old fashioned well draped with flowers; in another, a fountain. We worked like slaves to get everything perfect and were justifiably proud of the spectacular results. Cindy Moss was chosen to reign over the unforgettable affair which culminated our Junior social activities. 28 In April, delegates to Girls’ and Boys’ States were chosen. Lee Burwell was sponsored by the American Legion, while the Junior Outlook Club sent Sandy Cooke. Claire Schlepark and Barbara Nichols were alternates. At the convention, Lee was elected to the Governor’s Council, and Sandy served as Town Clerk. The boys and their sponsors were: John Knispel, Kiwanis ; Mike Lopes, Cape Verdean ; Ed Mello, American Legion ; Brad Moses, Grange ; and Ted Tripp, Rotary. Ed Doe, John Martin, Todd Merrill, Paul Olenick, and James Roberts were alternates. At Boys’ State, Mike Lopes was elected to the high post of Lieutenant-Governor. As June neared, Class Marshals were chosen. Carolyn Ferreira, Mauralee Williams, Mike Finneli, and Bob Robbins were selected to lead the Class of ’62 in the graduation exercises. At the same time, Daisy Chain was announced. The twelve girls w r ere Lee Burwell, Dianna Cook, Sandy Cooke, Beth Fling, Janice Furtado, Carlotta Hayes, Gael Mac Kiiligan, Susie Nace, Bobby Nichols, Susan Pasley, Claire Schlepark, and Mary Beth Studley. 29 SENIOR DRAMATISTS This year’s Senior Class Play was an outstanding one. Not only did the production fulfill the traditions of Lawrence High School, but it added to the cultural life of Falmouth. The literary classic presented by the seniors was the famous Our Town by Thornton Wilder. The action of the play took place in a small New England town symbolizing a universal community. The themes abetted a very thought-provoking performance. This was the first time that any senior class had undertaken such a difficult and profound play, and many committees worked along with the skillful cast for many months to make it a success. The performers, under the added handi- cap of working without props, did an admirable job, ably directed by Mr. Fraher. Paul Olenick, gave a superb performance as the Stage Manager, while John Woodcock and Claire Schlepark, as George and Emily, executed their difficult roles with extraordinary skill. In addition, Lewis White, Susan Veeder, John Winslow, and Sandra Cooke were outstanding. Sue Veeder and Bob Fredericks greet each other. Mr. Webb cleans up the garden as daughter Emily looks on. Gosh Emily, I’ll miss you. “George, is the moon shin- ing on South America, Canada, and half the whole world?” Score With Hit “Was that my cue? “Grover’s Corners lies on the old Archeozoic granite of the Appalachian range. “John, your tie must be straight!” Much preparation was put into this play, and both the class and the town contributed. Vital costumes and equipment were donated, and merchants gave their store windows for posters. Besides the regular publicity, there was a unique car cavalcade through the streets. The townspeople rewarded all the hard work by coming out in large num- bers; over eight hundred saw the play. Thus, because of the skill and toil of the cast, director, and various committees, and the support of the residents of Falmouth, Our Town will go down in the annuals of Lawrence High as an unforgettable success. “Nice town, y’know what I mean?” “Why can’t they get it right?” Nancy Schleicher, Sandy Cooke, and Sue Veeder part after practice. “Live people don’t understand, do they?” John Knispel and John Maloy work the lights. In Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town” 31 SUCCESSFUL SENIORS At long last, we were Seniors, and our spirits couldn’t be dampened. Only ten more months of school ! If one said it quickly, it seemed like nothing, but there were still many things in store for the Class of ’63. The fall was college application time, and in Jan- uary, when most of us took College Boards for the last time, we sighed with relief. The winter seemed to fly by. We were bursting with pride for the six seniors who carried the basketball team through an undefeated season and on to capture the champion- ship. With Our Town over, we started making plans for Class Day. The script, fashioned after Thornton Wilder’s play, was written by Susan Pasley and Lewis White, and Paul Olenick was chosen to head the cast as the moderator. Before Class Day, how- ever, came the fateful trip to Martha’s Vineyard, and the Class of ’63 became temporarily infamous. It soon was time to choose our class gift, and we decided to donate two hundred and fifty dollars to the library for an English reference section, and to Girls chosen as prettiest at the Junior-Senior Prom were Derna Grenga, Carolyn Ferreira, Queen Judy Parker, Donna Porter, and Nancy Pease. have “Marshall Gymnasium” set in bronze letters above the gym as a token of our affection for our principal. Bobby Robbins and Lee Burwell enjoy themselves during refreshment time. Mr. Merson and Mrs. Marshall arrive at the prom. Peggy Morton and John Martin greet chaperones. Class Gift will make Marshall Gymnasium entrance similar to that of Memorial Auditorium. About the same time, eight seniors proved quali- fied for membership in the National Honor Society. David Boehk, Derna Grenga, George Kahler, and Bob Robbins were reinstated in the society. Janice Furtado, Leslie MacDougall, Susan Pasley, and Mary Beth Studley were inducted as new members. Before we knew it, the prom was at hand, and the Juniors bade us “Bon Voyage.” Then the long practices for graduation were begun ; a number of boys seemed to have two left feet, but they finally learned to keep in step. Soon Class Day was over, and graduation was imminent. We couldn’t believe that four years had disappeared, leaving us with nothing but memories, and the tears began to flow. As we marched out of the auditorium graduation night, we suddenly realized what a big step we were taking. Our years at Lawrence High were over, and we were no longer Seniors. We were graduates, and our Senior year, like all the others, was gone for- ever. But the memories will live on. HYMN OF LOYALTY 0 Lawrence High, we offer tribute to thee, Mentor and Guide, who led us on our way. Hold hi gh the torch that lights us to our duty ; We shall not falter when from thee we stray. O Lawrence High School, whate’er betide, We still shall deem thee our Mentor and our Guide. 0 Lawrence High, thine ancient mission serving, Create in us a spirit ringing true ; Teach us to walk life’s pathway still unswerving, Ready to meet life’s problems old and new. We shall be loyal, 0 Lawrence High ; We shall be striving to keep thy banner high.

PREPARATION FOR GRADUATION The excitement of graduation began with choosing Class Marshals and the Daisy Chain. Tammy Smith, Charlotte Cline, Sandy Buck, and Jack DeMello were elected as the most proficient time-keepers. The Daisy Chain was comprised of the top sixteen girls academically of the Junior Class. Janie Hill, Cathie Burroughs, Julia Santos, Sara Ann Ketchum, Marty Holmes, Chris Young, Sue Sheehan, Charlotte Center, Donna MacQuarrie, Nancy Short, Virginia Marks, Faith Canning, Doris Correllus, Pat Kinsey, and Lor- raine Carter proved qualified for this honor. Then began all the practices which culminated in Class Day and Graduation as these twenty Juniors led the 160 Seniors through the auditorium. 33 Left: Awaiting dinners are Linda Haram, Sandy Morris, are Eddie Mello, Jimmy Rabesa, Russ Ventura, Mike Nancy Schleicher, Sandy Cooke, Lucia Crain, and Susie Generous, Jim Reilly, and Ray Frias. Veeder. Right: Exuberant after downing the roast beef That morning, the Seniors had their Class Day. After John Knispel greeted those present, a skit de- picting various aspects of our years at Lawrence High was presented to the audience of underclassmen and parents. After awards for scholarship and athletics were given out, our President presented the Class Gift Banquet Included Dancing Mr. and Mrs. Marshall seem to enjoy the evening. On June twelfth, the annual Class Banquet, another of the festivities preceding graduation, convened at the Poponesset Inn. After members of the class and a few invited guests enjoyed dinners of either roast beef or chicken, couples danced from nine ’til midnight and then went home to await the big day still to come.

Fye Seniors Enjoy Memorable Program Promptly at 8 PM on June fourteenth, the orchestra struck up “Pomp and Circumstance,” and the Class of 1963 marched solemnly into Memorial Auditorium as fond parents and friends craned their necks to see their special graduates. After the invocation by the Rev. Orville E. Crain of the Falmouth Methodist Parish, the welcome was given by John W. Knispel, President of the Senior Class. John expressed the gratitude of the entire class to the parents, teachers, and townspeople who had helped us on the road leading to graduation. Todd Merrill, President of the LHS chapter of the National Honor Society, then introduced Dr. Paul M. Fye, director of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, who gave the commencement address. Dr. Fye’s message was, “Have fun, but I don’t mean by this the one-day or one-night kind of fun that you will suffer the consequences of tomorrow. I mean to find what you can do best and will enjoy the most, and this will be real fun. You, as mature adults, ought to know what real fun is. There is fun in being an expert, and it is fun to have the talent to do something more expertly than someone else. The price to pay is hard work, but when well done, it is fun.” Sixtv-seven scholarships totaling twelve thous- and eight hundred dollars were presented by Russell B. Marshall, principal, in a highlight of the gradua- tion program. Mr. Marshall was assisted by Diane Smith, President of the Lookout Club and Diploma Girl. Top individual winners were Sandra Cooke with one thousand one hundred fifty dollars and Joseph Ingram, who received one thousand one hun- dred dollars. Superintendent of schools Harry S. Merson pre- sented the class, of whom more than sixty percent is furthering its education, to Dr. Mary Sears, chair- man of the school committee, for awarding of di- plomas. After the farewell address by Beverly Burwell, the Rev. J. M . Bettencourt Avila, pastor of St. Anthony’s Church in East Falmouth, gave the bene- diction. Then the Class of 1963, the largest in the history of Lawrence High School, marched tearfully out of Memorial Auditorium for the last time. 37 Lawrence High School Class of 1963 Out Into The World Graduation commences. Sunset of a high school career, I guess that’s where we stand now. For a hundred and sixty young people, the world looms large and inviting. Kings and queens are crowned to the same tune to which we seniors marched to accept our diplomas. These days, we have to make our own royalty, but it’s there, in everyone. Let’s hope that the life opening up for each of us nourishes that royalty, making us kings and queens in our own right. Mixed feelings are evident as graduation is terminated. Many Scholarships Awarded Mr. Marshall and Miss Sears awarded numerous well-deserved scholarships and diplomas at graduation. Joe Ingram received the largest amount of scholarship aid. . . . . Derna Grenga, a happy graduate. . . . John Knispel is congratulated.

Banner Sales And Snowball Boost Treasury JUNIOR CLASS Winding up the year with one foot in the door of the Senior domain was the Junior Class. During the 1962-1963 term, the active Juniors came forth with several major activities. Fun was had by all in November as the class created spirit throughout the school with an entertaining football rally. The girls, dressed up in the team’s uniforms, and the boys, attired as cheerleaders, met with gales of laughter from the delighted audience. Also in November, the appetites of the townspeople were catered to with a money-raising candy sale which put a considerable bulge in the class treasury. Decem- ber brought the memorable Snowball, Fleur de Noel; no one will ever forget the red and white splendor of the decorations, and the pretty queen, Becky Moore. A fact that should be noted is that the Juniors, instead of losing money on this formal, accomplished the incredible feat of actually making a few dollars. In March, spirit was promoted throughout school and town with the sale of L.H.S. pennants, which arrived just in time for the Clippers big basketball game in Boston Garden. The gala Junior-Senior Prom ap- propriately ended the year. Looking forward with high hopes to their last year at Lawrence, the Juniors seem well-prepared to meet the challenges put forth to them as mighty Seniors.

Chivalrous Sophs Sell Sweatshirts The Greek word “sophomore” means “wise fool,” but this year’s tenth graders disproved at least the last part of the phrase by accomplishing a large amount during their second year at Lawrence High. In November, the girls took advantage of the traditional Chivalry Week and brought the boys to their knees, forcing them to carry books, fetch lunches, and do a hundred other things. At the Chivalry Dance that weekend, those boys who had bolted and disobeyed their orders were duly punished. With May, however, and Twirp Week, came revenge, as the boys evened the score and played slavemaster for a few’ days. During March, the industrious tenth graders took orders for Clipper sweatshirts in an effort to increase the size of their class treasury. The annual Bean Sup- per was presented in April, with Sophomores serving hot dogs, salad, and the inevitable beans. The meal was followed by entertainment in the auditorium. At the end of May, members of the class were guests of the Freshmen, at the annual Freshmen-Sophomore Prom, and wound up the year one step closer to graduation. Some were chivalrous but many weren’t.

The Freshman Class completed a year successful in activities and athletics. The class was led by President, Ted Sheehan, who was assited by Tom Vadala. Suzanne Metell scribed the minutes at all the meeting’s, and David Miskell acted as Treasurer. Rounding out the capable group were Social Chair- man Mary Haddon and Charles Johnson. Co-captains Ted Sheehan and Bill Hausten led the freshman football team to a winning season. The young clippers won five and dropped two. The class ushered in the new year with a sock hop appropriately named “Welcome, ’63.” In May, an ancient tradition was broken and a precedent established: the annual Freshman Minstrel Show bowed out in favor of a similar production entitled “Lazy Livin’.” Essentially, this innovation followed the pattern of the previous performances, but the basic ingredients were quite different. The deep south was replaced by Cape Cod, and awkward na- tives took the places of slapstick minstrels. Finally, spirituals were ruled out in favor of sea chanties. As expected the show survived the change and brought great success. As the year drew to a close, the freshmen present- ed the annual Freshman-Sophomore Prom in the gaily decorated Marshall Gym, and the frantic rush for tuxedos, gowns, and flowers was begun. Kathy Wessling, escorted by Dave Langenheim, was crowned queen, and her loveliness topped the evening. Closing its first year of high school, the class prepares to return as Sophomores for another year at Lawrence. Queen Kathy Wessling is admired by Cathy Richardson, Bill Scannell, Ted Sheehan, and escort Dave Langenheim. Couples dance the night away.

Eugene C. Phillips presided as Caesar, and Paul Olenick was Pontifex Maximus, chief priest. Following the turkey dinner, prizes were awarded, and freshmen “slaves” were initiated into citizenship.

At LHS, extracurricular activities play as important a role in developing the students as the curriculum does. Each individual has an opportunity to widen his interests and strengthen his talents. For the potential musician, membership in the band is available, and the person with concern for the world situation may take part in the Model United Nations Club. Occasions like the Junior-Senior Prom expose teenagers to situations which they will meet later in life and teach them proper etiquette and behavior. Thus, these activities contribute to the welfare of the students and play a vital part in life here at Lawrence.

Founded in 1948 by Dr. Mary Robb, The Intelligen- cer, the student page of The Falmouth Enterprise, has for many years been an important link between the town and the school. Published weekly by the journalism class under the supervision of Mr. George L. Moses, The Intelligencer successfully keeps the students and the townspeople informed of all that goes on in school. During their trip to New York in March, the editors were notified that The Intelli- gencer had again been awarded a first place by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association.

The selection of a school ring and the formation of the Fal- mouth Teen Club were results of the council’s endeavors. The annual Christmas assembly con- vened; in addition, the council organized the cal - endar of school events, conducted a number of open meetings, and posted sports scores. “Cut- ting” in lunch lines was controlled, and hall patrols were also established. More important, however, is the fact that this year, the council extended its Council supplied ropes to prevent famished students from cutting in line. services to the entire town. Two major drives of concern to all of Falmouth were promoted; inte- rest in the construction of a skating rink was aroused, and the council was also instrumental in the formation of a Chapter of the American Field Service. The whole town should be indeed grateful for the splendid success of the Student Council this past year. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY This year, the National Honor Society moved ahead “with great vigor.” For the first time, weekly meetings were scheduled to discuss pertinent prob- lems, and a new, comprehensive constitution was adopted. In January, four seniors and eighteen juniors were inducted at a ceremony preceded by dinner at the Congregational Church Hall. On April 10, the Society presented a unique assembly on the subject of Paul Revere and the American Revolution. Informative narrative was read by various members, and John Woodcock, Todd Merrill, and Eric Carriker delighted the audience by singing and playing ap- propriate folk songs. The highlight of the show was a hilarious skit depicting the domestic scene preced- ing Paul Revere’s ride. All told, it was a successful, active year for the National Honor Society. Taking time out to pose, are the Society’s officers; Adviser, Mr. James C. Kinney; Secretary-Treasurer, Susie Nace; President, Todd Merrill; and Vice-president, Lee Burwell. Loyalty . Honor .

A firm financial backing of nearly four hundred dollars for activities of the year was netted from the annual Country Fair, which was held in Nov- ember. With part of this money, the club sponsored its only purely social event, a rousing Pajama Party. Other social events were the cookout at Adviser, Mrs. Erva Levine’s house and the Christmas party at the home of President, Diane Smith. A fashion show, featuring the modeling of various club mem- bers, was also held, and it was greatly enjoyed by parents, guests, and the remaining members of the club. A guest night, to which members of other clubs were invited, was held in April. The girls took part in a number of service activi- ties. Club members distributed food to the needy at Christmas and sponsored a Valendimes Dance for the benefit of the March of Dimes. Money was sent to help an oppressed family abroad, and a cake sale was held to raise funds for books for students in Brazil. The girls also collected refundable labels for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and cooperated with the Junior Outlook Club in soliciting donations for the S.S. Hope. The club ended a most enjoyable and profitable year with the annual May Banquet held at the Surrey Room. Discussing Valendimes Dance are Linda Barrow, Corresponding Secre- tary; Mrs. Erva C.

During the year, members have continued to work on such projects as raising the flag before school each morning and maintaining the penny gum- ball machines placed in many Falmouth business es- tablishments. Members of the club also raised money for the annual scholarship awarded to a senior mem- ber by sponsoring a bottle drive and two dances. Continuing the policy of school service established in previous years, the club, under the leadership of President Ed Wells, published Student Directories and sport schedules, sponsored the traditional pre-Thanks- giving Day football rally, and assisted other school organizations when called upon. One example of this cooperative effort was the help the boys gave to the Lookout Club in decorating for both their Country Fair and their Valendimes Dance. Sponsored by the Falmouth Kiwanis Club, the Key Club is also active in projects not directly connected with school. The boys brought canned foods to each meeting during the fall, and these foodstuffs, along with other useful items, were distributed to needy families at Christmas. Several club members also as- sisted the Kiwanians during the holiday season by presenting a program of entertainment designed to cheer up the patients confined to the Pocasset Hos- pital. Later in the year, the club traveled to Boston to attend a Boston Bruins hockey game. The many and varied activities of this organization have done much for both the school and the communi- ty, and it is because of this fine record of service that the club has earned high praise from the people of Falmouth. Members discuss Clam Chowder dinner. V. I. P.’s of Key Club convene: (bot- tom) Mauralee Williams, Carolyn Ferreira, Beverly Burwell-Sweet- hearts; Ed Wells-President; Ed.

Future Nurses Aim For New Hospital Since the organization of the Future Nurses of America at Lawrence High four years ago, the club has achieved its aim of acquainting interested stu- dents with the nursing profession. The association is made up of Sophomore, Junior, and Senior members; the Juniors and Seniors work in local hospitals, as- sist at Bloodmobiles, and help handle clients in the Health Office. Each year, two field trips are taken to various hospitals and nursing schools in the New England area. The club also has some monetary projects such as the annual bake sales. Through the money obtained from their activities, the Future Nurses are able to award a scholarship yearly to a senior member on the basis of her devoted service to the club and the community, as well as her scholastic achievement. Caring for their patient are Janice Woods, Secretary, Ann Hart, Vice-president; Robin Walden, Treasurer; and Joan Motte, President. Under the supervision of Mrs. Marguerite Kendall, School Nurse; Joan Motte, President ; Ann Hart, Vice- president ; Janice Woods, Secretary; and Robin Wal- den, Treasurer, the club has served both Falmouth and Lawrence High. No doubt, a number of these girls will one day return to Falmouth to continue their service as nurses in the Falmouth Hospital.

Under the leadership of President Lorraine Weeks, and Adviser Miss Catherine Marshall, the Future Teachers of America met every two weeks through- out the school year. The club has been fortunate enough to have such guest speakers as Dr. Mary Sears and Mr. Sydney Roberts at its meetings. Much experience has been offered to the girls in a program whereby the members can visit the Mullen School Students Prepare For Teaching Careers The new intermediate school will provide possible teaching opportunities for FTA alumnae. during the afternoons and sit in on classes.

Club Members Sell UNICEF Cards LHS students, particularly those in the Model United Nations Club, share the country’s interest in the world situation. This club meets Tuesday evenings for discussions of the happenings in the U.N. and its role in the modern world. To help promote interest in the world federation, the organization sponsors an assembly program during United Nations Week. Moreover, interest from the townspeople is created through the club’s project of selling Christmas cards and cookbooks. This year, the group ranged as far as Wilmington, Delaware for the East Coast Model United Nations Conference, where members represented Hungary, and to meet- ings held by Harvard and Radcliffe promoters. Through the efforts of this club, both the town and the school have better understandings of the United Nations, the repository of hope for peace in our time. Mr. DeWitt Jones, Adviser, keeps watchful eye on group during bus trip to Model UN.

Club Produces The Curious Savage One of the members of the Class of ’63, Sandy Morris, was instrumental in creating the Drama Club. With the aid of adviser-director Mr. Robert Morris, the Clipper Drama Club was launched. On February 16th and 17th, these thespians prod- uced their first smash hit The Curious Savage at Highfield, and packed in the student body for an abbreviation of the play in Memorial Auditorium. Longer on experience from participation in upstage positions, many members have had important parts or jobs in Falmouth Theatre Guild productions of The King and I and Auntie Mame. Working the lights are officers Linda MacDougall, Treasurer; Sue Veeder, Vice President; Sandy Morris, President; and Sandy Cooke, Secretary.

Orchestra Grows This year’s orchestra, conducted by Mr. James Stevens, had more stu- dents than any previous Lawrence High School ensemble. Its size has increased from the ten or fifteen members of five years ago to thirty-six students today. Practicing twice a week, the group concentrated on classi- cal music. This spring, they participated in the annual High School Concert, Mr. James A. Stevens, Direc- tor, wields the baton. and completed the year by playing at Class Day and Graduation. Senior Choir Active The Senior Choir, under the direction of Mr. George Ewing, is composed of Students from grades nine through twelve. In March, part of the group participated in the All-Cape Music Festival at Bourne High, in which one- hundred-forty members from different Cape Choirs were led by conduc- tors from other areas of Massachusetts. The group also sang at the Golden Age Club and were of service to various other benefits throughout the year. The choir performed in the annual Spring Music Festival held here at Lawrence High School, and thus ended a most active year. Mr. George Ewing strikes out disharmony.

Majorettes Practice Diligently The seventeen girls who comprise the majorette corps of Lawrence High spend a large part of their time preparing intricate routines for their many performances. During the summer, the group practices three hours each Tuesday morn- ing and meets after school several days a week in the Fall to perfect the drills. The girls march at all football games and school rallies and also participate in the Memorial Day and Santa Claus Parades. During the summer months, concerts at the Falmouth Harbor Marina keep the group in practice and prevent the uniforms from gathering dust. Thus, both the school and the entire town are able to benefit from the girls’ hai ' d work. Vice-president Lois Smith follows President Judy Parker.

Band Wins Cape Acclaim Under the supervision of Director James Stevens and President Bill Jenkins, the Lawrence High Band has become an admirable asset, not only to the school but also to the entire town of Falmouth. During the previous summer, the Clipper band at- tended the Barnstable County Fair, where they were presented with a state flag by Governor Volpe. At the request of the Centennial Committee, they pre- sented a marching-playing exhibition at the Dennis Centennial Celebration. This fall, the band was very active. It took first place in the Barnstable Band Competition against Dennis-Yarmouth and Barnstable. In November, the Mr. Stevens, the Band and Pep Squad form cross for Thanks- giving Day dedication of Leo Shields Field.

None of us could have been any prouder of our Clipper Band than we were on March eighth when the entire school and most of the town attended Bos- ton Garden for the final game of the Class “D” Tech Tournament. The members proved themselves equal in skill and enthusiasm to Westwood’s larger and more citified aggregation. In March, selected members of the band attended the clinic for bands at the University of New Hamps- hire, and several also attended the Cape Cod Music Festival at Bourne. The Clipper Band is probably the most traveled in Cape history. With the help of the Band Parents’ Club, they raised the money necessary for new uni- forms and have taken a trip to Miami, Florida to participate in the Orange Bowl Parade and festivities. Wherever it goes, the band takes with it the pride and admiration of all of Falmouth.

The squad has become a familiar and most welcome sight at school rallies, town parades, and athletic competi- tions. This year, under the fine leadership of Mrs. Lynne Whited, physical education instructor, the girls were awarded second place in the Barnstable Drill Team Competition. Whether marching or enthusiastically responding to the cheerleaders, the Pep Squad is a great asset and is appreciated by both the school and the town.

The boys’ tennis squad blasted its way through the season and garnered the Small School Championship of Southeastern Massachusetts. Our winter track and cross- country teams both captured Class D State Championships, and the softball team won the Large School Cape Championship. The greatest thrill came when the Clippers trounced Westwood and, cheered on by the whole town, stole the Eastern Massachusetts Class D State Championship. LHS athletes surpassed all expectations and brought great honor to their school and their community. Clippers Hold Own Lawrence High School athletes continued the old tradition of producing a first rate football team. Once again, the Clipper warship fought the stormy seas of opposition on the gridiron and came out with an admirable catch. A great share of the credit goes to the many people of Falmouth who so faith- fully supported the Clippers on those Saturday after- noons; as a result of this spirit and confidence- building support, many worthy opponents were sunk and left in the wake of a hard-fighting team. At the helm of this mighty ship were Co-captains Wayne Ferreira and Mike Generous. A crew of such veterans as Mike Finnell, Mike Lopes, Joe Ingram, Ed Mello, DeMello crashes through Halfback Eddie Mello Fullback Jack DeMello Scatback Ji m Rabesa Tackle Domingo Pena Tackle Bruce Mogardo Center Joe Ingram Anxious observers at Old Rochester. and Jim Rabesa formed the backbone of the powerful warship. Along with these fine players were many solid blockers like Bob Robbins, Dick Harding, and John Hough. The skipper, Mr. Myron “Mike ” Gaddis, and First Mate, Mr. James Kinney, were responsible for the fine job of training and coaching which is so necessary for top performance. Just one of the many memorable events which stand out in the minds of all Falmouth fans is the fantastic seventy-yard run Jim Rabesa made on a hand-off from quarterback Wayne Ferreira. One of the most unusual plays wit- nessed was Mike Finnell’s return of his own punt during the Wareham game. Will Rabesa make a gain? ? ?

There was an ocean of strategy used on the part of Commodore Gaddis ; one example was the shifting of Jack DeMello from halfback to fullback which resulted in Jack’s scoring two touchdowns from his new battle station. The Clippers went into every combat carrying the standard of Lawrence High and of all Falmouth. The great crowds attending each game rew-arded the team’s efforts by their loyal support. Those on the sidelines cheered with much enthusiasm and delight when Clippers like Ed Mello entertained them with their never-say-die running to gain necessary yard- age. Screaming with pride, the fans found themselves thrilled by many dazzling plays like the sixty-five yard run by Mike Lopes on an end-around. Thus, hard practice, determination and unwavering town support proved to be a rewarding combination for the Clipper football team of 1963.

Cross-Country State Champs Again The Lawrence High School Cross Country team ran up a commendable record this year of nine wins, one loss, and one tie. Wins were recorded in both the Catholic Memorial Invitational and the State Class “D” meets for the second year in a row. By winning the All-League Meet, the Clippers broke a title tie with Dartmouth and were subsequently crowned Southeastern Massachusetts Cross Country Champions for the third straight season. Four large trop- hies were presented to the school in recognition of the team’s performances in the above mentioned meets. Still undefeated and with only one tie in eighteen dual meet league encounters, the squad has also developed a fine Junior Varsity unit from which another excellent season is expected next fall. The J.V.’s sported a winning streak of eight victories, three of which are from last year.

Lawrence High had a very young soccer team this year but developed quite rapidly and completed a fine season, considering its loss of eight of last year’s starting team. The squad, led by Tri-captains Don Moniz, Ed Wells, and John Sagar, was built around returning lettermen Bob Carey, Ray Martini, Bob Ferreira, Don Andrade and David Burwell. A fine display of spirit was shown on and off the field of play, and many teachers made most complimentary remarks regarding the boys on the team. Several of the younger boys grew into fine players. Early kinks developed into plays that reflected knowledge of the game, and the boys truly exemplified the spirit of sportsmanship and team effort.

Falmouth’s record was two wins, one tie and six losses. Highlight of the year was the team’s trip to McHugh Forum at Boston College where they played Rindge Tech, a Class A team. The Clippers lost 4-1, but the team played very well. Near the end of the year, the Cape coaches of Falmouth, Bourne and Dennis- Yarmouth combined their teams and played an all-star game against Barnstable and a JV game against Barns- table’s second team. Barnstable won both, 2-0 and 3-2. Brad Smith was chosen by the press as first string all-star defensive man for Cape Cod.

LHS Clipper trackmen enjoyed a state championship winter track season this year. In addition to the state meet, the squad took third in the South Eastern Massachusetts League. The Clippers also powered through the Cape Cod winter track meet. Records set during the season included the high jump (Mike Lopes at 6’3 1 4-”) hurdles (Mike Generous in 6.2 sec.), 50 yds. (Jim Rabesa in 5.6 sec.), 600 m. (Mike Ferreira in 1 min. 20.7 sec.), 1000 m. (Russ Sharpe in 2 min. 25.5 sec.), and shotput (George Kahler threw 47’10”). Many of the team also placed well in the state meet. Rabesa was second in the 50; Ferreira was fifth. Donald Munroe finished second in the 300. Ferreira was second in the 600. Sharpe was third in the 1000. Barros and Fike came through in the mile with a second and a fifth. Lopes was second in the hurdles ; Generous was third. Lopes’ record- breaking high jump brought him a first, and Kahler was second in the shotput. After such a successful winter track season, the team drew eighty candidates in the spring. Fifty-three of this group com- pleted the season, led by the ten seniors. RECORD New Bedford L 37 -40 Old Rochester W 58 -19 Somerset . . . .

Team Captures St ate 1963 brought “basketball fever” to the town of Falmouth. Everyone was interested in the Clipper team and for good reason, too; without a doubt, this year’s team was the greatest in the annals of L.H.S. For the first time, Falmouth completed an undefeated season, won the Principals’ Tournament, and, most of all, the Eastern Massachusetts Class D Champion- ship. Besides these achievements, the Clippers broke individual records not only in Falmouth and Cape Cod, but also in the State Tournament. During the season, the townspeople and the student body were delightfully overwhelmed with the specta- cular performances of the team. In the regular sea- son, the closest any opponent came to upsetting the Clippers was Harwich, which was defeated by an eight point margin. Most games were won by spreads of over twelve points. The first six team members were seniors, a condi- tion which speaks well for the Class of ’63. All six played outstanding ball and were instrumental in making the team the great success it was. Mike Lopes and Mike Finnell were Co-captains, and Joe Ingram, Brad Moses, Bob Carey and Tod Merrill completed the crew. Although all of these players were indispensable, Mike Lopes should be singled out. This 6’ 5” senior was a fabulous star not only in Fal- mouth and Cape Cod but in the Boston Garden Tournament as well. 96 SCOREBOARD Chatham Harwich Barnstable Sandwich Bourne Dennis-Yarmouth . . .

In his high school career, Mike scored 1279 points and led the Cape with 285 rebounds. In addition, he broke three scoring records in Boston Garden. Due not only to Mike’s fantastic success, but also to the fact that 22 is the number of games won this year, the jersey worn by our greatest star is to be retired and placed in the new trophy case. Backing up “Big” Mike were Mike Finnell, a versatile ball-handler and second high scorer, and Bob Carey who, besides being a steady ballplayer, led the team with 62 assists. Mak- ing the plays go out front were Brad Moses, play- maker and outside-shot artist, and Joe Ingram, hust- ling driver and set-shot expert. With such a terrific team, Falmouth could not help but get overwhelmed with enthusiasm. The townspeople, caught by the fever, flocked to the games throughout the season to give the team great support. During the Tech Tournament, caravans drove to Boston Garden. Even Town Meeting got in on the act and drew up a resolution congratulating the Clip- pers. In the aftermath of the tournament, the clubs, merchants, and people of Falmouth carried the ball in honoring the team, and there were banquets sponsored by Kiwanis, Boosters, Rotary and Elks in honor of the Class “D” Champions. In addition, the players received jackets, watches, sweaters and gift certifi- cates from many merchants. The brilliant success of the Clippers not only thrilled Falmouth beyond imagination, but also created a strong tie between the school and the town. Mike’s lay-ups decide the championship. Now for a larger trophy case. Enthusiasm captures Class D champs after Tech Tourney Final. Wanda Medeiros sinks a free shot. Falmouth guards rebound at the Nauset game. Girls Use Roving Player To Advantage The Clipperettes, led by high-scorers Lee Burwell and Ann Rabesa, finished third in the Large School League standings. An innovation to the game was made this year; instead of being required to limit their actions to one-half of the court, two players were allowed to rove the full length of the gym. Although the team will miss All-Stars Lee Burwell and Lorraine Weeks and guard Ann Gifford, they can look expectantly for the return of three starters, Second String All-Star Ann Rabesa, forward Wanda Medeiros and guard Chris Young. With their con- tinued improvement, Falmouth is sure to better this year’s 5-10 record. This season’s highlights were the victories over Sandwich and D-Y. These teams had beaten Falmouth for many consecutive years, but the Clipperettes finally upset them both. SCOREBOARD Chatham . W 36-15 Harwich . . L 19-22, L 19-28 Barnstable . . . .

Netmen Capture Small School Crown Tennis proved to be a very successful sport and an interesting one at Lawrence High this year. In addition to the boys’ squad, petite damsels took to the courts officially for the first time in the history of the school. The scoreboard revealed power in both male and distaff columns. The boys’ 13-1 record was marred only by a loss to New Bedford. John Maloy and David Burwell led the netmen with undefeated seasons. Close matches and volleying duels marked the season as Co-captains John Maloy and Bob Robbins sparked the team to victory, with able assists from backers David Boehk, Dick Broadbent, John Knispel and David Miskell. The 1-2 punch of Ma- loy and Burwell and grand slam playing of all the rest garnered the Clippers the Small School Championship of the Southeastern Tennis League. If the first year is any preview of what can be expected of the Clipperette netters, LHS will see some magnificent action. Starting the season with an upset of a powerful New Bedford team (3-2) after an original 4-1 defeat in which Lynn Heilig and Robin Walden contributed the only point, the girls proved themselves tough in com- petition and closed out the season with a 3-2 record.

The team, playing with only three seniors, was chiefly held together by three juniors in the infield and a freshman, a sophomore, and a junior in the outfield. The team opened the season with a 4-0 victory over Provincetown ; Marty Marks pitched the one- hit shutout. A slump was experienced, however, as the team lost its next three games to Harwich, Bourne, and Dennis-Yarmouth. Behind the strong pitching of Marks, the team handed Barnstable its first loss. The second half of the campaign was opened suc- cessfully with two victories over lower Caps schools, Chatham and Nauset. The Clippers continued their winning ways and handed Bourne a 21-9 defeat. In this game, the Clipper ba ts exploded for the first time, smashing out twenty-six hits, including two home runs. The team again slumped, losing its last four games, two to Dartmouth, a Class B opponent, and one each to Barnstable and Dennis-Yarmouth. Strike three . . .

For one thing, they pay the taxes which enable us to be educated in such an attractive building and by such wonderful teachers. They also furnish us with all-import- ant summer and after-school jobs. Lastly, they buy ads in yearbooks, and for all these things, we are extremely grateful. .vi . . ■■ ■ ■ . ■ : . : ■ V •• ■H . ■) . a m ■ i ' ll . ' ft ' FRANK BATTLES, INC. Buick Dealer H. V.

He plans to maintain it while in college, knowing that he can easily bank by mail and still enjoy the same personal service. What’s more, it’s safer and smarter to pay by check. So bank at Falmouth Trust where no account is ever too small — where you’re treated as a good neighbor.
