TIERNEY 2 A TRIBUTE TO OUR PRINCIPAL MR. EDWARD L SKELLEY From the fall of 1961 to this spring of 1965 has truly been the golden era of our teen-age lives. Especially has Leicester High School made this so, and more particularly, its principal, Mr. Edward L. Skelley. Equipped with a sound educational background, he has accordingly set high standards for his teaching staff. In this way, we, the students, have been the beneficiaries of superior classroom in¬ struction. A strict disciplinarian, Mr. Skelley has yet never lost the common touch in his dealings with all pupils. He has listened to our problems, under¬ stood, and advised us well. May we always be appreciative. KEVIN M. FOLEY Business Manager ADMINISTRATION - FACULTY MR. EDWARD BOULE Assistant Principal MISS PATRICIA LIPINSKI Secretary 4 MISS MARJORIE FRYE English MR.

There were some bright spots, though, especially scatback Ron Leno, who set Worcester County afire with his sensational running. Ron amassed 66 points for the season, second only to Algonquin ' s Jeff Albrecht. Coach Ed Gallagher will concentrate on patching the defenses for next season. The passing combination of Dennis Cooney-to- Chuckie Carlos, along with the bruising running of fullback Rico Argentati, are sound credentials, indeed, that our offensive machine will be one of the best in the area.

Bob Kennedy « Jeff Berthiaume Kevin Foley SENIORS Here pictured are the ' 65ers who were called on to fill the void left by the de¬ parture of Todd Jonas. That they did in devastating fashion. It will indeed be a difficult task for Coach Gallagher to find replacements for these grid specialists— Never shall we see their likes again. Jim Pietro f Mike Guerra Mike Lessard Ron Leno Bruce Provo Gerry (Hoss) Udell Dave Barnes UNDERCLASSMEN Hopes are high that our football forces will experience a renaissance this 1965 season. There are many good reasons to believe that ideal is possible. Just gaze at the flock of talented boys shown on these two pages. They received plenty of inval¬ uable game experience last season which should bear them in fine stead for the coming campaign. If our boys can strengthen their defenses, LHS will once again be blazing a winning trail in foot¬ ball. So, fellows, let ' s get that will-to-win spirit and reward Coach Gallagher with a winning season.

His record has been noth¬ ing short of phenomenal. Consider that the Wolverines once won 86 Wes¬ tern Worcester County League games in a row. That ' s an accomplishment that perhaps no other schoolboy coach has ever equalled. It was only fitting then that this year ' s team should prove to be his finest. There are sound cre¬ dentials to back up this statement: the Southern Worcester County League title, second place in the Larger Schools Division of the Clark University tour¬ ney, and a cherished berth in the District 3 playoffs. Thanks again, Mr. Rowden, for providing us with a gold¬ en era here in basketball at Leicester High.

Who will ever forget the three-act bas¬ ketball drama appropriately referred to as The Battle of Breezy Bend ? Surely, no one couldn ' t. It involved neighborly rivals, Leicester and David Prouty. Both teams were enjoying their finest seasons ever. During the regular campaign, the two teams collided with Prouty winning a squeaker, 60-56. They would next meet in the finals of the Larger Schools Division of the Clark Tourney before a turnaway crowd of 942 fans. Prouty had too much Rusiecki in this game and won handily, 77-56. Most .critics ruled Prouty a prohibi¬ tive favorite when the squads met head-on for the third time in the District 3 play¬ offs. Our Wolverines, though, would not play the part of a Sonny Liston and bat¬ tled the Prouty five down to the very last second when Rusiecki ' s 10-footer enabled the Spencer boys to prevail, 55-53.

Credit for this excellence can be attributed to a sparkling corps of junior and senior performers; also, the coaching skill of Mr. Comer figured in quite prominently. The squad started its season auspiciously enough by turning back Southbridge, 60-44. Then came a 56-45 victory over David Prouty High of Spencer. We encountered two straight setbacks at the hands of Burncoat High, 36-51, and North High, 39-61. Overnight, it seemed, occurred the renaissance. We rebounded by pasting Classical LEICESTER HIGH 78 Paul Fitzgibbons Jim Argentati John Anderson Ricardo Anderson High, 61-24, then whomped North Brookfield, 63-41, before succumbing to Tantasqua Regional, 36-63. On June 2 occurred perhaps the greatest upset in Southern Central Worcester County League annals. We weren ' t conceded a chance of winning the championship meet, but our boys weren ' t reading the Tantasqua press clippings. With each boy expending a little extra, we pulled out a dra¬ matic win, nosing out Tantasqua, 45-43.

May 15, in the Town Hall. With Oriental Sunset the theme, we de¬ veloped our motif so magnificently that the setting was like the splendor of Hong Kong. To enhance matters, the band mem¬ bers selected as our queen, vivacious Karen Johnson. A picture is forever, so, here to treasure, are moments of that most memorable of all our high school expe¬ riences—The Junior Prom. We would be remiss, however, not to shower due praise on our advisor, Mr. Robert Rochette. A man who has dedicated his life to youth, here at Leicester High and summers at Camp Putnam, he spared no energies in making certain that this demanding proj¬ ect would be successful. We hope, Mr. Rochette, that these few words of appre¬ ciation, in some small way, express our true feeling for you. Queen Karen Johnson with her lovely court.

Like Mr. Rowden ' s basketball teams, our thespians keep writing one success story after another. There ' s a reason—Mrs. Irma Bosse, our nonpareil play direc¬ tor. She has the master ' s stroke when it comes to drama. Imagine putting up with our idiosyncrasies on a nightly basis for six weeks and still manag¬ ing to persevere! That takes courage. Yet, through the whole ordeal, she surfaces whatever little latent talent we have and then has us believing we ' re real big show biz. With the stars above us, we floated on the clouds that memorable evening as a packed Town Hall enthusiastically received our performance. However, all kudos rightfully belong to Mrs. Bosse for pro¬ fessionalizing what had started out as a group of rank amateurs. The Senior Class Play cast.

REVUE Presentation to Mr. Comer SENIOR DINNER DANCE Post Proelium Praemium—After the Bat¬ tle, the Reward and so it was on June 7, 1965, as we thronged to the Leicester Air¬ port Lounge for the second greatest social treat of our never-to-be-forgotten high school careers. It was a fantabulous eve¬ ning, made more so by the pleasant weath¬ er, a truly fine orchestra, and one of Teddy Breault ' s sumptuous meals. We also would be remiss if we didn ' t thank our advisor Mr. John Comer, who pains¬ takingly took care of all the minutiae as¬ sociated with this rather gigantic under¬ taking. We here dedicate ourselves to having reunions every five years. In the meantime, may God always bless the won¬ derful Class of 1965. 1 Bob Richer on drums • r 94 I could have danced all night Dinner Dance Grubs More gluttons Fatties 95 CLASS HISTORY 1965 After four short years at Leicester High School, the time has come to bid farewell to our teach¬ ers and friends. As each of us prepare to leave and fulfill our Manifest Destiny, we think back to fond memories at Leicester High. We entered the new Leicester High School as shy and somewhat trembling freshmen. Under the guidance of Mr. Lucier, our class advisor, we elected the following officers: Edward Griffith, president; Robert Kennedy, vice-president; Hope Lachance, secretary; Lynne Tuttle, treasurer. Three freshman cheerleaders, Mally Berthiaume, Patti Mercer, and Christine Bercume, were chosen to represent our class and cheer us on to the Western Mass, play-offs. The Freshman boys placed eighteen members on the Varsity teams, but the girls were also active in sports, with eleven on the softball team alone. In September 1962, we returned as initiated members of the school. Our Sophomore class of¬ ficers were: Edward Griffith, president; Marilyn Berthiaume, vice-president; Dianne Munson, sec¬ retary; Jeff Berthiaume, treasurer. With the help of Mrs. Bosse we planned our Sophomore Class trip to Whalom Park, and it proved to be a most enjoyable day for everyone. Our Sophomore year was accented by the fitting for our class rings. After a hectic and carefree summer, we entered our third year at Leicester High. Our long-awaited class rings arrived in October, and it was a day for the Juniors. With our heads down on our desks we elected: Edward Griffith, president; James Pietro, vice-president; Sylvia Spencer, secretary; Timothy McNeil, treasurer. Mr. Rochette, our Junior class advisor, tried his best to help us in our plan¬ ning for the Junior Prom, but despite his efforts, we still exceeded our allotted funds, and obtained 125 extra dance orders. Nevertheless, through the careful organization by our chairman, Glenda al- minen, and Mr. Rochette ' s continued efforts, the Mary Ann Fontaine Prom was a striking success. We chose as our theme, Japanese Sunset . The Prom Queen was Karen Johnson. Glenda Salminen and Robert Kennedy were chosen as D.A.R. Representative and Student Gov¬ ernment Representative respectively. We entered our Senior year, our final year at Leicester High School, electing: Edward Griffith, president; Robert Kennedy, vice-president; Glenda Salminen, secre¬ tary; Marian Fitts, treasurer. Our basketball team brought great honor to the school by copping the championship of the better and faster Southern Worcester County League. The track team matched that prestige gained by the basketball team by winning the first trophy in the history of the school for track in the South Central Conference Meet. We anxiously counted the days until our New York trip. Finally on April 20, two busses left for three wonderful days at the World ' s Fair. With the help and guidance of Mr. Comer we shall have a mem¬ orable Dinner Dance, and successful Graduation. As the first class to complete four full years in the New Leicester High School, we sincerely thank our Principal, Mr. Skelley; our Guidance Counselor, Mr. Zambarano; our teachers, and all those associated with our education at Leicester High School, for guiding us through these im¬ portant years of our lives. 96 CLASS PROPHECY 1965 Crash! It was a strange way to meet one of my former classmates, but typical of this one. As a marine biologist, I had been sitting in my glass- bottom boat observing the effect of the heavies upon the marine life, when a group of surfers appeared, carrying on a conversation. The one doing most of the talking wiped out next to my boat, and the red-nosed face which emerged was unmistakably Kevin Foley ' s. I invited him aboard, and he began talking about the surfing record he was thinking of making With Dave Tibbetts ac¬ companying him on the guitar. He said that Dave was presently employed at the Hot Spot , a gambling casino owned by Bruce Edson. Bruce ' s chief rival was Deb ' s Place , a combination casino- hotel run by Debbie Slattery. Kevin said that Kenny Harling was on the coast too working as Yul Brynner ' s barber, and that he had met Mark Connolly and his wife Alice on the beach with their ten chubby little children. We were interrupted by my ship to shore radio over which were coming cries of Mayday! . The ship was nearby, so we went to see if we could be of help. We arrived to find Kenny Desautels, the harassed naval radio operator awaiting the coastguard aboard a sinking ship. The ship ' s navi¬ gator was, by coincidence, Nancy Hager, who had her Mariner troop with her for an instructive tour. Then the engineer, a singed Bob St. Hilaire, came to the rail to announce that he had opened the seacocks to extinguish a fire in the engine room. When the coastguard cutter arrived, piloted by Paul Robert, who seemed very amused at the sit¬ uation, we returned to the beach. Among the surf- side stands was Gussie ' s Bait where Paul Gustaf¬ son featured his dead flies in all sizes. Back at my hotel, I picked up a Hollywood paper and discovered Star Dirt , a gossip column by Ellen Barrett. In it she wrote that Karen Johnson, after a successful season directing McHale ' s Navy , was releasing a new version of Girls, Girls, Girls , starring Dave Barnes. Ruth White, chief camera operator for Candid Camera had made a sneak visit to one of Steve Magnuson ' s parties which had achieved nation-wide fame. Also Dianne Munson in the column was Glenda Salminen, Hollywood starlet who was currently playing the role of a bunny in the movie Vegetable Garden . Thumb¬ ing through the remainder of the paper, I spied a picture of Suzanne Millette receiving a presi¬ dential award for her work with handicapped children. It said that Suzanne was planning a va¬ cation with Maryjane Cooper at her Home for Wayward Cows which she usually picked up on mad impulses at auctions. Also receiving an award was Diane Repekta, who had defeated Russia ' s Tamara Press in the Women ' s Shot-Put Division of the Summer Olympics. As I put down the paper, I noticed an advertisement for anti-freckle cream, concocted by Kathy Flynn from a rare species of carrot. That evening, upon leaving my hotel, I met Gerry Stefanski, who had just bought an ascot and cigarette holder at the House of Page , an ex¬ clusive men ' s shop owned by Skippie. Gerry in¬ formed me that he had come to California so he could wear his sunglasses in the proper atmos¬ phere. He suggested we got to Mac ' s Go Go , a wild discotheque run by Judi Mac Gregor. There we met Patti Mercer, author of a famous lonely hearts column, and girl about town. She said she had Mally Berthiaume arranging sneak dates for her customers. Patti told us that Sande Erickson had a moose ranch in Maine, that Robert Robin¬ son had become a popular opera singer, and that 97 Dave Williams was the new editor of Playboy magazine. Also at Mac ' s was Suzanne Shephard. She described her business, which was making backscratchers and said that she had hired Dave Dufault as chief tester. Suzanne informed us that Pam Astukiewicz, a New York model, had- en¬ tered several beauty contests and had finally be¬ come Miss North Dakota. We sat and watched the dancers do the Annie Wiggle a dance step, in¬ vented by Suzanne Richard. Then puffing off the dance floor came Hopie LaChance. She tickled my palm with her old fa¬ miliar handshake and told me that she now owned a wig salon with products made from her own hair which had fallen out after a permanent at Barbara Chaffee ' s beauty salon. Hope said she knew of a little place to go called Edie ' s Escape , a tearoom where we could have our fortunes read by Doreen Meyer, the owner. Cindy Wood, stunt- girl stand-in for Natalie Wood and other tiny ac¬ tresses, was talking to Joe Kaminski, a wealthy tycoon who had made his fortune through his chain of supermarkets. They showed us a maga¬ zine article concerning America ' s ten best-dressed women, one of which was Alice Murtaugh, who bought most of her clothes, it said, at Valerie Wilson ' s fashionable dress shop, where Janet Mar¬ tin was fashion coordinator. Joe told us that, his secretary, Joanne Bergeron was on a honeymoon trip to Canada at Janet Laprise ' s Ski Lodge. Doreen read my fortune: I was to meet a curly- haired man, see a frightening sight, and take a long trip. The curly-haired man turned out to be Bobby Richer who came in to look for a night job playing the bongoes. He said that during the day he installed radio antennas in cars. The fright¬ ening sight was an exhibit of Pete Spencer ' s mod¬ ern art which was on display in the next room. I had already planned to take a trip back to Massachusetts to report my observations on marine life to Woods Hole. I left the following morning but stopped in Indiana, where Chris Bercume, so¬ loist in the National Episcopalian Choir, was to be in a concert at a military boys ' school. Playing in the same show was Sharon Latour, now a cele¬ brated pianist. Backstage, Chris told me she had met Gail Dupuis and her husband, whose chain of hamburger stands rivaled McDonald s. She mentioned that all the artists were after Ruth Knight for her Mona Lisa smile, but that Ruth ' s main job was as a cigar store Indian. Linda Horne was singing with Chris that night, but ac¬ tually she was a member of a popular quartet. She told me that Susan Allen was a model for Glam¬ our Girl cosmetics, and that Sandy Cote was now living in Mexico where she had become a Spanish disc-jockey. The concert was wonderful, and afterwards I ate with Chris and Linda in Donald Sanded ' s ex¬ clusive restaurant where Diane Spalding was head waitress. Don said that David Dudley, now a lo¬ quacious congressman currently held the record for the longest personal filibuster. I resumed my homeward trip on a plane in which were pictures of Donna Forsman who had been elected Air Force wife of the year. Joey Johnson was flying with me, he had been in De¬ troit designing a super-car and was traveling to Boston to consult with Gerry Lekstrom on its construction. As we tuned in on the plane ' s tele¬ vision, Kathy O ' Keefe, a famed debator, was bicker¬ ing with her opponent. Next we saw Roger Baker performing in a Demolition Derby, and Gerry Dziejma, who was the fire-eater in a circus. We agreed that Gerry always did like the hot stuff. Once we had landed, I hailed a taxi which was driven by Joe O ' Neil. He said he had just re¬ turned from a leopard-hunt in Africa which he had made to get material for his upholstery. Joe said that two big men in town were David Cooper, who owned Hood ' s Dairy farms, and Tony DeNito, who ran a shoe polish factory. Also becoming very wealthy was Kathy Harrington, the manufac¬ turer of a large selection of stilts and pogo sticks. Joe intimated that the local rumor was that Paul McNamara had quit the Red Sox to become a nose doctor. Arriving in Woods Hole, I met Lynn Tuttle, hav¬ ing tired of traveling around the world, she was trying to become a lady astronaut to go to the moon. Lynn said that on a recent trip to Paris, she had met Wayne Snay, now a French playboy, and Billy Robidoux, head of the Bunny Club. Lynn had just returned from New York, where she had met many people she knew. Susan Cooper was a chamber-maid in a plush Times Square hotel; Donna Shivick and Sylvia Spencer ran a charm school for young sophisticates; and Kathy McCue conducted tours around New York City. Wayne Nelson was designing Hondas in Green wich Village and Elaine Seskevich was also living in the Village writing and producing a Broadway musical. Lynn also saw Irene Snay who was pre- 98 paring to go to South America and become a missionary, with Judy Progin as her nurse. Having heard about so many of my High School classmates, I couldn ' t resist driving up to Leicester for a day. First I stopped in Worcester, and was surprised to find Evelyn Barrus head of the hair¬ dressing dept, in Barnard ' s. Patty Langlois was the receptionist, and she told me that Janet Wil¬ liams had had her hair done recently. Janet was unable to continue her part in How to Stu ff a Wild Bikini , because she kept fainting during the big scenes. Linda Larsen, who was selling yard goods at Denholm ' s, told me that Pat Gordon, drum majorette for a large band, had bought material for a uniform that day, and Rose Anderson, the most successful seamstress in the City, often came in with her customers. I saw Linda Price who told me that she was secretary to John True, owner of the entire store. I stopped for gas at Hennessey ' s garage. After several minutes, Brian came out; he ' d been watching a football game in which Mike Guerra had thrown one of his perfect blocks to allow the winning touchdown. Arriving in Leicester, the first person I saw was Eddie Griffith. He was going to become head bas¬ ketball coach at Colgate . . . no, Worcester Tech . . . no, U. Mass. Well, actually he was trying to decide which one would give him the most money for the least work. Eddie said that he had driven through Rhode Island the day before, and that Little Rhodie ' s favorite priest was Jimmy Pietro. Dave Whitworth, he said, had become a Physics professor at M.l.T. Next, I met Felix Guif- frida who told me that he was presently running at Suffolk Downs. Phil mentioned that Kean Wilcox was composing classical music for the Boston Sym¬ phony Orchestra, and that by command of the Queen, Gerry Udell had become court jester of England. Bruce Rolander had worked himself into Gerry ' s act so that the two could bring their guitars and earn a little side money as an English vocal group. Then Carl Hewitt drove by in his tow-truck and stopped to pick us up. Carl said that he did especially good business on Junior Prom nights. Just then, he was going to help a car with a flat tire which turned out to be driven by Marian Fitts, accompanied by Karen O ' Donnell. They had been on their way to the World ' s Fair where they drove greyhound tour buses, Karen having the one from Port Arthur. While we waited, Marian and Karen told me that Donna Serwicki had become head of the English Dept, at Leicester High, that Bar¬ bara Biscornet had become the Latin Teacher, and that Dyane Paradise was the gym instructor. On weekends, Dyane drove racing cars at Westboro speedway. They also said that Bruce Provo had become a professional picketer at Stafford Iron Works. On the way back, Carl told me that Timmy Dun¬ lop was the new Warren Spahn of the Mets, that Jeanette Maznick was the proud owner of a thor¬ oughbred horse ranch, and that Timmy McNeil had found it cheaper to go into the hospital supplies business. Later, I bought a Leicester Times and in it I found that Jimmy St. Germain had become presi¬ dent of Homely Romey ' s , that Bobby Kennedy had been hired by I.B.M. as a computer, and that Ernie Cooper had struck oil in his back yard, put¬ ting Rochdale Fuel Co. out of business. As I looked up, a black car rolled by followed by a streak of color. It was Mary Fontaine chasing her car, and when she stopped she said she was on her way to the Y.W.C.A. where she taught isometric exercises. Mike Lessard gave a course in weightlifting at the Y.M. Mary said that Susan Hickey was a model for Sup-Hose, that Bev Brehio, Ann O ' Connor, and Linda Bergeron were selling protection at the M.P.A., and that Mary Anne Robi- doux, after becoming Pizza Queen of the United States, had retired with a case of heartburn. Riding through town, looking important was John Murphy, the local truant officer. He had just read a book written by prize-fighter Ron Leno entitled How to Tame Your Temper. He had heard that Phil Mulrain was now a Commander in the Navy and Robert Giroux was a Lieutenant Com¬ mander, with Gail Hultman, who had become a Wave, as his secretary. Finally, I decided to call Woods Hole to check on assignments. I found that Marcia Going was the telephone operator, and that Dotty Kelman was the new secretary to my boss. I told her that I had heard about every member of the class of 1965 in the past few days. Then I thought of how the paths they had chosen resembled those which had interested them while they were at Leicester High, and I knew that part of their lives had been a never forgotten stimulation toward future goals. 99 CLASS WILL 1965 We, the graduating class of 1965, having a law¬ ful amount of intelligence, being of supposedly sound mind and body, do hereby publish and de¬ clare the following to be our last Will and Testa¬ ment.
