Per¬ haps, the most fas¬ cinating of all of them was the physi¬ cal education pro¬ gram so ably conduc¬ ted by Mr. Paige Rowden and Miss Barbara Morrison, instructors. In ac- cordanc with Presi¬ dent Kennedy’s stress on physical fitness for youth, exacting endurance tests were given our boys and girls. Dennis Blanch¬ ard, at left, emerged as boy champion when he placed first in the gruelling ob¬ stacle course competi¬ tion. We are pleased to acknowledge his outstanding feat, and truly hope the clean- cut ways of this gen¬ tleman-athlete will be imitated by the entire student body.

The Leicester High basketball team again made a sweep of its 14-game campaigning in the Western Worcester County League. The Wolverines have now won 52 straight league games over a four-year stretch. Rather than defend its title in the steadily weakening Smaller Schools Division of the Clark Tournament, the Leicester squad wisely decided that the only way to gain recognition for its splendid record would be to advance into the Western Mass, playoffs. Fitchburg high proved to be a superior foe, however, and dealt our boys a stunning defeat, Yet, there was the ample satisfaction that District 3 authorities, for the second year in a row, endorsed our basketball team as a big- time unit.

THE PROUTY GAME Each season the pivotal game is with David Prouty High of Spencer. Here are the two coaching masterminds with their charges in Leicester’s 60-57 conquest at the Prouty gym. CLASSICAL GAME Half of our four defeats the 1961-1962 season came at the hands of Classical High. Both games, though, were bitterly waged as evidenced by these glimpses of the 50-40 reversal at the spanking new gym. Bob Pearo battles furi¬ ously in rebound action with George Ridick. Mike Emerson and Dave Provo tame the Tigers. These boys don ' t need booster rockets. In fact, there goes Dave Provo into orbit on a tap. 44 The bubble burst when we played Fitchburg High in the opening round of the District 3 Western Massachusetts elimination playoffs. The Northern Worcester County boys trumped us soundly, 87-44. We were rooting for them as they bowled over each succeeding opponent and moved all the way to the final round of the Western Mass. Tourney in Springfield. Our congratulations are extended to the high- riding Fitchburg High team of 1961-1962. A pall of gloom on the Leicester bench tells you what’s happening without looking at a scoreboard. LEICESTER VS.

A couple of dual meet victories were realized, and the team concluded its season with a truly representative showing against Classical High. Coach John Comer was especially heartened by the praiseworthy performances turned in by nearly a score of freshmen and sophomore members. Next year could be a banner campaign.

Since 1952, our softballers had been unable to post a victory. It appeared the famine would go on forever, but there came a long-to-be-remembered day this spring when we trumped Sutton, 11-10. It was a cause for rejoicing, and the school hopped with excitement. Mr. Skelley and the admini¬ stration are currently considering making V-Sutton Day a local school holiday. Other victories followed, but none had the savory taste of that first thirst- quencher over the fair lasses from the land of Sam Sutton. Captain Jody Dunlap with catcher Kathy Hennessy.

In freshman year we wallflowered our¬ selves at the Friday night hops but be¬ gan to emerge like groundhogs during our sophomore term. The class picnic had us really feeling our oats. The dawn of junior year promised a twilight known as the Junior Prom. It finallv arrived Fri- J day, May 13, 1961— the luckiest Friday we’ll ever spend. And, of course, we bl ossomed into full maturity during senior year. The Senior Dinner-Dance reminded us that we had come a long way since our painfully shy freshman days.

FEBRUARY 24, 1962 63 1 1962 WASHINGTON The Ides of April came And started out quiet tame With friends and parents gathered ’round the bus. A Wilson bus quite new— In fact, a sixty-two— We found conveniently assigned to us. And so this Leicester horde Quite gaily climbed aboard— There should have been some coverage by T.V.— We fondly waved good-bye For a week to Leicester High, And started out for Washington, D. C. The Capital could claim There’s something in a name As witness John and Robert Kennedy. Whenever you have two We know it must be true And so with Washington we must agree. The driver of the bus That was assigned to us Was just as nice a guy as he could be— His name, we learned—was Ray Combined with Bill today We too, have two, whose name is Kennedy. Both Connery and Snow And Poswiatowski show That boredom on a trip is just a fable— We.hadn’t gone a mile When they produced a smile By setting up a portable card table. And so we flashed along With laughter and with song Despite the fact of intermittent rain. There was Mary Ann, Noreen, Louise, Diane, Maureen, And Fredel looking for the sun in vain. 64 CLASS TRIP I think it was Pat Fyffe Big Mike and Carney too Who called the group to life Are all part of the crew That day was weary, quite worn out and spent— Who have arrived with both of the Lahairs— , r- Barbara, Sal, and Sue With Provo as a friend Woke up and shared the view They’ll all of them contend Of Washington’s great towering monument. With all of this town’s million marble stairs. As each of us stepped down Look down, L’Enfant, and see Across from old Georgetown, From the heights of Custis Lee Like Roman heroes in a chariot. A situation you had never planned— In spite of shaking knees As you look out on the town We grabbed our bags and keys With a puzzled anxious frown And walked into the Key-Bridge Marriott. A town that you no longer understand. We, all of us were vague We know you did your best Two Sharons and a Sprague Met every then known test Another Sue, Smith, Sylvia, and a Baker— But now you shrug and give up with a sigh. ■ And Sampson, Whitmore, Brown For in that century Were loose upon the town You didn’t foresee A willing gang just looking for a taker. The Class of ’62 from Leicester High. 65 1962 CLASS PROPHECY It was one fine spring day in May, 1972. I called for a helicopter. To my surprise my pilot was Raymond Pileggi and co-pilot was John Aroian, former classmates. It was the first helicopter in which I have flown that was as fast as a jet. They flew me to New York where I boarded a nuclear-powered airplane designed by Donald Sampson and Neil Hop¬ kins. Our destination was Florida. Upon entering the plane, the head stewardess, to my astonishment, was Donna Anderson who told me Noreen Fitzgibbons, Susan Griffith, and Fredel Jor¬ dan were also aboard. I met them in the cocktail lounge and immediately complimented Sue about her beautiful dre ss. She told me it was fashioned by Lor¬ raine Niquette. I then learned that Joyce Anderson had a mission house in outer Mongolia and her as¬ sistants were Suzanne Shepard, Judy Wilkman, and Beverly Antanavica. Fredel told me Howard Cooper now owned Rochdale Fuel Co. and his corps of secretaries com¬ prised Cynthia Sprague, Carol Pierce, Joyce Horne, and Nancy Johnson. Noreen then informed us that Arthur Snow, President of General Motors, was having trouble with United Steelworkers President, Robert Smith. The feeling is that Bob is preparing to instruct his union workers to strike against General Motors as a means of obtaining a wage increase and fringe benefits. In addition Donald Brown, Arthur’s assistant vice-president, along with Richard Grant and Brian Anderson, were trying to design a new car made from two they had purchased from Bennie War¬ ren’s junkyard. While conversing, the supersonic ticker tape came on the sc reen. It said the first trip to the planet Mars was to be made by astronauts David Steelman and Ronald Whitmore. Then we saw Dear Dianne” written by Dianne Whitworth. Along came the sports section, and we were informed that Roger Boudreau was going for his second win in the Ken¬ tucky Derby. Milton Price and Michael Emerson were now head coaches at the University of Ohio. Maureen Hickey and Jo Ann Dunlap were also there, manag¬ ing the basketball and softball teams, respectively. Before we knew it, we were landing in Florida. We went directly to our hotel where a hopping nurses’ Convention was in progress. In the corridors we saw Rebecca McFcrrin, Sharon Paradise, Louise Proctor, Sally Russell, and Mary Ann Smedley. What a pleasant surprise! Sharon relayed word that Wil¬ liam Kennedy was a practicing surgeon in California and his lab technicians were Sandra Lekstrom and Heather MacDonald. Also, Carolyn Creswell was a doctor in Canada and her trio of secretaries consisted of Karin Neuvonen, Christine Wojciechowski, and Anthony Kuzmicki. After talking awhile we decided to meet at the beach. Arriving there, we were stunned to discover the lifeguards were James Connery, Robert Carney, and David Provo. Jim told us Ronald Baker, Adam Fotiades, Carleton Cooper, and Bruce Herholz were working as assistants to David Smith, who owned the Smith Motorcycle Company. So large and pros¬ perous is this company that there’s a fleet of secre¬ taries; namely, Barbara Gilfedder, Shirley Gagen, Patricia Fyffe, Jean Dale, Jo Ann Dube, and Mary Lou Williams. The following evening we arranged a beach party. I was delegated to be head of the food com¬ mittee, so I naturally dropped into a supermarket- restaurant nearby. There, to my amazement, were James Lahair and Edward Poswiatowski, employed as chefs. And three familiar waitresses sauntering around were Janice Girard, Diane Lamprey, and Sharon Barnes. Eddie clued us that other ’62 class¬ mates had become Florida-conscious. They were John Lahair, Richard Crowley, George Piltzecker, Dennis O’Keefe, and Richard McKeon, all of whom pooled their talents and money to operate a gas station down the street. It was the night of the party, and seemed more like a class reunion. As for the missing members, Rick McKeon told us that Stephen Letsky, Robert Hisoire, and Ronald Robert ran a wrestling gym in the Bronx. Meanwhiie, Leonard Silva, Kevin Ryan, and Robert Small ran a car lot in Hollywood, Cali¬ fornia, and provided transportation for actor James Trainor. My vacation went by all too fast, but it was wonderful seeing and learning what all my former classmates were doing. Most satisfying, though, was the knowledge that the Class of 1962 had gained a full measure of success. —SUSAN GREEN Class Prophet Class Historian CLASS DAY 67 DINNER Two of our finer couples. •: ij 68 “DANCE Faint smiles. The chow ' s coming. Shall we dance? You bet. Jo Ann and Roger The hunger pangs are really getting to them now. The Dinner-Dance, though a joyful setting, is really a requiem for the graduating class. For many class members it marks the last time that they will converse intimately and reminisce together. For others, it is unfortunately the decreed occas¬ ion that they will be bidding perma¬ nent farewells. Therefore, it is most appropri¬ ate that we have this final high school social event serving as a musi¬ cal stopover to graduation. In such an atmosphere, true friendships, built during four long years, are sealed with endurance. As treasured keep¬ sakes we present views of the gaiety that resided at our Dinner-Dance held at the Leicester Airport Lounge on the memorable evening of June 4, 1962. 69 CLASS PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS Our high school days are filled with cherished memories. Some you remember better than others, such as that important game you wanted to win so much, your first school dance, the class parties and picnic, the thrill of being a senior, and at last the wonderful feeling of accomplishment when that coveted diploma is placed in your hand. They all serve as a tangible reminder of these past four years, years which have become a part of us forever. Now, as we face new and challenging horizons ahead, we are truly thankful for the patience with which our teachers have guided us; because of their instruction, we shall be better able to surmount oncoming difficulties and continue on to serve well both our God and country. •—David Steelman Class President First row, from left, Diane Lamprey, Sharon Paradise, Beverly Antanavica, Louise Proctor, Cynthia Sprague, Sharon Barnes, William Kennedy, David Steelman, Susan Griffith, Mary Ann Smedley, Carol Pierce, Nancy Johnson, Judith Wilk- man, Susan Green, Sandra Lekstrom, and Barbara Gilfedder.

It was September of 1958. We can very vividly remember those first days. Shy, timid freshmen, we wandered through the halls, wondering maybe someday we, too, would become seniors and reach the goal of graduation. We elected the following officers to lead our class: Ernest Rich¬ ards, president; Donal Hennessy, vice-president; Carleton Cooper, treasurer; and Sharon Barnes, sec¬ retary. The three freshman girls picked for the cheerleading squad were Susan Griffith, Tina Wo- jciechowski, and Cindy Sprague. The basketball and baseball teams achieved honor, each copping the Western Worcester County League title. Too, the basketball team gained additional fame by winning the Smaller Schools Division championship of the Clark Tournament. It had been a wonderful year of meeting new friends and classmates, and in September of 1959 we returned as Sophomores. With a little more con¬ fidence, we proceeded to the next step on the ladder of success and elected the following class officers: William Kennedy, president; Sally Russell, vice-pres¬ ident; Cynthia Sprague, secretary; and Susan Griffith, treasurer. We eagerly awaited and then thrilled to the highlight of that year, the annual class trip to Whalom Park. Once again stardust descended on our athletic teams which successfully defended all their championships of the previous season. Also, the football team nailed down the Southern Central Worcester County League title. September of I960 arrived and we returned as high-spirited Juniors. This was an exciting year and it began when we received our class rings. For class officers we elected William Kennedy, president; David Steelman, vice-president; Susan Griffith, sec¬ retary; and Sharon Barnes, treasurer. We began to plan for the Junior Prom, selecting as our theme, Younger Than Springtime, with Miss Scanned as faculty advisor. The committees were organized and work began immediately. The date soon arrived, the hall was beautifully decorated, and everyone who attended enjoyed themselves immensely. Once more we come to dwell on the topic of sports and it can truly be said that this was the greatest year for sports in the history of L.H.S. The iron man” football team repeated as league champs, and the basketballers easily defended their two titles for the third consecutive year. But the highlight of the year was the invitation to the Western Massachu¬ setts Tournament in Springfield. It was one of the most thrilling games we’ve ever had the pleasure of witnessing. Although it ended with our team bowing in the final moments to powerful Pittsfield High, we heaped bouquets of tribute on Coach Rowden and our fabulous team. We never fully realized until nearly the close of the year that this was to be our last year within the walls of old Leicester High. A new school had been planned, and, we, the Class of 1962, were to be its first graduating group. With this in mind, we eagerly anticipated the following year, not only because of the new school, but because we had reached the final peak in our travels. The fall of 1961 came and we entered the doors of the new school on Winslow Avenue as jubilant Seniors. As we looked ahead, we realized the honor bestowed on us. We thought of the better educational facilities; for example, the gym, work¬ shop, library, Home Economics room, laboratories, business department rooms, and the sprawling study hall-cafeteria. As the days passed by, we learned the new routines and became familiar with our new surroundings. It would be superfluous to go into many de¬ tails of this final year which are pictorially recorded and described in this yearbook. However, there must not be any oversights. Mr. Comer was our special guardian angel, and he steered us right at all times. The main spectacular was the Class Trip to Washington, D. C. We embarked on April 15 and returned home on April 19, feeling tired but happy after five glorious days of sightseeing and pure fun. There were 28 students, four chaperones, and one terrific bus driver which all added up to a truly fan- tabulous time. Currently it’s Class Day, then the Senior Din¬ ner-Dance, and finally the climax—Graduation. Amid the bomb scares, water pistols, and firecrackers we still may get that chance to graduate. As the 178th graduating class, we are proud to be the first class to graduate from the new Leicester High and we extend our very best wishes to all the teachers and underclassmen for continued success in producing many more Senior classes from this wonderful school. Our class motto states Inite Cognoscere, Exite Servare’’ or Enter to Learn, Go Forth to Serve.” Each and everyone of us will attempt to fulfill this pledge. —CYNTHIA SPRAGIT: OUR 1962 We, the graduating class of 1962, having a lawful amount of intelligence, being of supposedly sound mind and body, do hereby publish and declare the following to be our Last Will and Testament.
