Published by Lexington High School Lexington, Massachusetts lie over nine hundred students, Lexington High School is a world in itself. However, revolving in the same orbit as our school are the other three character forming institutions of American living: our homes, our churches, and our community. Since the school prepares us for life in another world after graduation, it must provide a varied educational program to meet the needs of all its citizens whether future college students, business people, or craftsmen. Even more important is the training for co-operating and working with others in our clubs, sports, classes, and everyday life all of which is di- rected for us by our faculty. It is this world—its people, its events, and its purpose—that we present to you in our yearbook this year.

WARREN, Principal B.A., Bowdoin College M.A., Columbia University LEXINGTON HIGH SCHOOL Memorandum from the Principal’s office To each member of the Class of 1957: Some day you will realize that one of the chief aims of this school has been to help you become capable and well-adjusted young people, able to get information independently, able to think and decide what you believe is right or important or valuable, able to share your ideas with others clearly and convincingly, and able to take your part as a leader or as a member of a group carrying out worthwhile purposes. In your classes and in your school activities your teachers have been giving you the training and the oppor- tunities to develop your talents to the fullest extent so that you will be ready to take your part as a good citizen in the affairs of life ahead, Realizing this, you will get more pleasure from looking through your Yearbook and recalling the happy events of your high school days, | Haft (Fe (@) HP-633 EDWARD E.

With the able assistance of Miss Kinley and Mr. Moyle the 1957 Yearbook Staff put out a bigger and better book this year, but did it with a much smaller staff than last year. Members of the staff led by Ruth Butler and Norma Julin worked at everything, layouts, copy, and picture captions, in contrast to the sectional staff work done in previous years. The fine art work of Charlotte Harris made the book addi- tionally attractive. Candid photo work produced by Bob Prescott and Dave Yeakel also heightened student interest in the field of activities and sports. This was truly a book show- ing the relationship of the school to our town and preserving the present picture of school life for the future in the lives of the underclassmen as well as the seniors. The photos vividly portrayed the whole student body and its activities showing the necessary ingredients needed for an active and worth- while school life. The record sales of the yearbook this year were due to the untiring efforts of Business Managers Bob Rosendorn and Bob Finnerty and the clever advertisements made by Marsha Patch and Beth Dacey over the Public Address System.

This year’s Student Council certainly proved themselves worthy to be called the governing body of the school. This active group of twenty-five students served the school by permitting other organizations to hold money raising func- tions such as carnivals, tag days, dances, and food sales, and by selling season tickets to home sports events, by placing a bookcase in the cafeteria, and by providing background music during lunchtime. The council also carried out its stand- ard duty of organizing the Football, Assembly, Lunchroom, Traffic, Pep Rally, and Elections Committees. STUDENT COUNCIL. Third row: L. Cooper, R. Robbat, J.

It ended with the dedication of a tree and plaque by the U.N. Celebrations Committee. Next year’s council will again be able to sponsor a for- eign student and prove to be a beneficial organization if they have the fine advisor, members, and co-operation from the entire school as it did this year. honey, G.

LEADERSHIP, SCHOLARSHIP, SERVICE, CHARACTER The 1956-1957 Lexington Chapter of the National Honor Society consisted of eight members chosen last February for their outstanding qualities of leadership, scholarship, service, and character determined by activity and teacher ratings. About twenty-five more members were chosen this February. The bulk of the work, however, was done by the original eight members, since the others were only members for a few months. The main projects of this year’s chapter were revising the HONOR SOCIETY. Third row: R. Rosendorn, G. Bieren, W. Tappley, B. Thompson, J. Oberteuffer, A. Schumacher, M. Fosberg, R. Finnerty, M.

The co-chairmen of the Traffic Squad, Nancy Murphy and David Yeakel, and the advisor, Mr. Adzigian, have tak- en the problems of congestion in hand and to the best of their ability have solved them. With this accomplished, they turned their thoughts to the new wing and the question of marshalls in that section. Thanks to these loyal students, many accidents have been avoided during “rush hour.” Finally! The truth is out! It is the P. A.

In addition, the members have received training in using the public address system and the tape recorder. With the help of Mrs. Reynolds, our speech therapist, they have been able to adjust their own speech problems and have helped to make our school notices clearer. The purpose of the Audio-Visual Club is to relieve the bur- den from the teachers of operating the audio-visual equip- ment. Mr. Louder and the officers, Bruce Burnham, Bob White, Dale Fisher, and Lindsey Williams, have made this group a very necessary and helpful fixture in the school. bosi, S. Bolan, L. Williams, B.

The purpose of this committee is to keep the lunchroom clean and neat and the lunch shifts run- ing smoothly. This has been done by having a milk wagon and ice cream freezer separate from the main lunch line, and by imposing regulations regarding cutting in line, which doors to use, and where to dispose of papers and trays. Without this committee’s help, the lunch period would have been some- thing to dread rather than to look forward to. LIBRARY STAFF. Third row: N. Randle, J. Adams, C. Morris, P. Goddard, S. Gale, R.

SERVICE The Library Staff this year is one of the largest this school has seen for a long time. These students, who have charge of the Memorial Library, volunteer from one to five of their free periods a week to help Mrs. Creamer keep one of our favorite spots in school running smoothly. Some of their du- ties are checking books in and out and keeping an accurate record of attendance. While working there, they benefit by learning about books and learning how a library runs.

This club has created so much interest among the girls that two clubs, the Junior-Senior and Freshman-Sophomore, had to be formed to allow for its two hundred members.

This has consisted of speakers on etiquette, dating tips, and good grooming, with a question and answer ses- sion following each.

COACH, TEAM, PEP, STEAM! The majorettes showed more action this year than in any previous year. They appeared regularly at the pep rallies; each time with a new and intricate routine. They accompa- nied the cheerleaders to represent Lexington at the Concord rally. The majorettes never failed to proceed the band on to the field on Saturday afternoons, Shiela Cass strutting in the lead. For the enjoyment of all, they put on a skit at the Pun- chard game, and at the Thanksgiving Day game they led the band in a pinwheel and a cross. FOOTBALL PROGRAM COMMITTEE. Second row: B. Chu, M.

It’s the Football Programs Com- mittee with their chairman Judy McNamara. To the delight of a ll, Concord came to Lexington at last; the committee did not miss a chance to do ifs job, for their supplies soon disap- peared. After every home game they left the field without a scrap of paper visible. The $475 raised by this committee will enable the Student Council to sponsor another foreign student. C. Scribner, P.

Behind the spirit of Lexington High are the school’s viva- cious cheerleaders. This year, with Barbara Maurer as cap- tain, they enthusiastically led crowded bleachers in cheers of encouragement and victory for both the football and basket- ball teams. Their many hours of practice resulted in a third place award plus a trophy, which they took by their new “Lexington” cheer, in the Dedham competition. The pep ral- lies held throughout the fall took a great deal of thought on the part of the cheerleaders. They provided good enter- VARSITY CHEERLEADERS. J. Porter, N. Garrity, P. Cutter, B.

These girls also decorated the gym for each rally. The freshman cheerleaders certainly gave their football team support as they led them on through an undefeated season. Then, they started basketball games. off in their new handmade uniforms. They joined with the senior cheerlead- ers in several pep rallies, rousing a roar from the freshman section. Both these groups, the senior and freshman cheerleaders, have kept on the job and produced spirit, in the best Lexing- ton tradition. IF MUSIC BE THE FOOD OF FUN, PLAY ON! This year the orchestra completed a busy but enjoyable season. After many rehearsals its members helped creditably by playing for intermissions at the Senior Play. Two of its most gifted musicians, Cynthia Carpenter and Roberta Buckingham, received the honor of being chosen to represent Lexington High School at the All State Music Festival in March at Northampton. The orchestra played skill- fully at the Northeastern Massachusetts Music Festival, held this year at Concord. In May the musicians participated in the traditional Spring Concert with pleasing results. With its fine performance at Senior graduation held in our new auditorium, the orchestra success- fully finished another praiseworthy year. BAND. Fourth row: S. Fardy, R. Buckingham, W. Braver, P.

The versatility of the band was shown this year in its many performances under the able leadership of Mr. Gillespie. Its members, in well-disciplined marching order, played en- thusiastically at all the football games. In March the musicians participated in a com- bined concert with Woburn at that town. The band again represented the school in Lexing- ton’s traditional April 19’th Parade. On May 4 the school was represented by members of the band in the Northeastern Massachu- setts Music Festival. And wearing their blue and gold uniforms, the band made a bright spot in the Spring Concert on May 10. Lex- ington High has long appreciated its colorful and splendid band, and this year its part in our school life was again a big and impor- tant one. Wood, R. Swartz, G. Sinclair, K. Henriques, D.

Under Mrs. Sandburger’s direction, the girls tried to perfect their harmony in songs chosen for the Northeastern Music Festival, held in Concord, and also for the Spring Concert.

IN OUR HEARTS Since such a large number of junior and senior girls turned out for the Senior Girls’ Glee Club, Mrs. Sandberger felt that she would have to cut down the size to make the club easier to work with. After giving the original number a trial period to see how it worked out, she decided to retain the entire group. Things began to get under way with the election of officers and a theme song, ‘Without a Song.” The librarians, Sylvia Sands and Beth Dacey, did a commendable job tak- ing care of the large repertory available to the girls.

The girls even sacrificed time after school to attend rehearsals. They worked on the dreamy, “Clouds,” “Oh, Dear, What Can the Matter Be?,” (a peppy novelty tune), and the beautiful ‘Spirit Flower.” These songs were effectively done at the concert and will long be fondly re- membered.

This entangled situation is unraveled as the operetta concluded in true Gilbert and Sullivan style.

This eccentric family consists of Penny Sycamore, (Marilyn Taylor) who decided to become a play- wright because a typewriter was accidentally left at her door; Mister Vanderhof (Dick Crowley), the grandfather who collects snakes and attends every commencement at Colum- bia University; Paul Sycamore (George Bieren), and DePin- na (Keith Knubbe), who makes fireworks in the cellar; Essie COMMITTEES.

Dever. Lexington High’s 1956 football team, led by Co-captains Dever and Hogan, climaxed a fine season on Thanksgiving by beating Concord for the first time since 1945. Playing at home for the first time since 1953, the team moulded a bril- liant effort into a 12-6 victory. The Concord score, sand- wiched in between an eight yard sweep by Dever in the first period and a thirty-eight yard interception run by Schu- macher completed the scoring. A hard-charging line of Stew- art, Cole, Carlson, Coyte, Spidle, Dwyer, and Schumacher featured the Lexington defense that held Concord to four first downs. The backfield of Dever, Hogan, Schumacher, and Connor was also tremendous. Early in the season Lexington upset Melrose.

However, in the second half Wakefield pulled away, aided by its superior bench strength. Later, Lexington jolted once-beaten Needham in a fabulous upset. A 61-yard pass from Cole to Dever with eight seconds re- maining in the half stood up the margin of victory, although Hogan notched an insurance touchdown in the final minute. Following the Concord defeat, the highlight of the season, Lexington was pleased to get back once more the tradi- tional 1775 musket—the symbol of a champion. B. Spears. Front row: W. Stewart, M.

Here comes Charlie Spidle flying through the air to get that football. Look at those fires burning in the eyes of Dave Cole and Al Coyte. With fight like that, no wonder we beat Concord! This fall the Freshman Football team produced Lexington High's first undefeated team in many years. Much credit is due this fine squad for such an outstanding feat, which un- doubtably reflects the coaching of mentors, DiGiammarino and Gibson. During the season the team swept through seven games with six wins and a tie, while it out scored the opposi- tion 135 to 68. A favorable note is that Concord was shut out.

The team also placed third in their di- vision and eighth in the State Championships. The team’s first meet against Needham ended in a close 27 to 28 win for Needham, but The Minutemen bounced back to hand Everett Vocational a 19 to 44 shellacking. Then came powerful Woburn and a 22 to 36 win for the visitors and Lexington’s last dual meet loss. In the next two meets first Wellesley succumbed by a 19 to 39 score, followed by a 21 to 37 win over Stoneham. In State Class C com- petition the boys placed eighth out of a field of seventeen schools. Pacing the team individually this year were Co-captain Spike Paranya and Dick Crowley. Spike continually ran away from every opponent he faced and went on to break five cross country records, climaxing the season by setting a new all class record at the State Championships. Dick Crowley Spike Paranya sets another record at the White Stadium in the state meet. also showed he was a top flight runner, placing fourth in the division and ninth in the State Championships.

The varsity basketball team, composed of seniors Jack Brinklow, Gus Shumacher, Tony Spinelli, Dave MacAuley, Captain John Plummer, plus outstanding juniors Pete Lappin, Bill Tappley, and Murray Ingraham, was the best shooting team Lexington has had in quite awhile. With only three returning lettermen the boys had to practice many long and hard hours to form themselves into the strong, steady unit that they became. This team definitely had determination and a fighting spirit which stayed with it throughout the sea- son. Two of the most exciting games of the season were against Wakefield and Concord, which resulted in two over- time victories for L.H.S. Another exceptional game was against Belmont when we came closer to beating “The Win- nermen” than any other team in the league. It was really heartbreaking when we lost by two baskets in the last min- utes of the game. Coach Abell really deserves credit for this team which held up the reputation of L.H.S. so well. Just by looking at their record, everyone can see that this team had magnificent skill, unity, and playing ability. VARSITY—Coach Abell, J. West, Manager; D. MacAuley, J. Schumacher, M. Fosburg, W.

GET THAT BASKET Throughout the season a desire to play and win their The indomitable fighting spirit of the Freshmen Team games was indelibly marked on the Junior Varsity squad which was composed of juniors, sophomores, and a few tal- ented freshmen. From a group of untrained individuals, the Junior Varsity boys developed into a well-knit group acting as a single unit. With the valuable experience gained in their games and practice sessions with the varsity squad, they will undoubtedly help to form a winning team for L.H.S. next year.

These girls were constantly aggressive in anticipating plays, passing, dribbling, shooting, and scoring. Backing up the scoring side of the team was the effective guarding of Emily Rolando, Phyllis Carpenito, Sheila Cass, Cynthia Rich, and last year’s only veteran to return, Paula Stevens. Showing the fans how to intercept the ball and to snare rebounds, these girls sparked the team in its efforts to hold off the heavy offenses of teams made up of skilled veterans. Two games were out- standing in this year’s tally. The first game of the season showed Lexington completely overpowering a strong Reading team 36 to 27. The most ex- citing game was with Lexington’s traditional rival Concord. In this game the Leavitt basketeers outscored their opponents fourteen to eleven baskets from the floor, even though misfortune overtook them when the Concord crew won on foul shots. For the Leavitt Lassies this was a team-building year and gained for them worthwhile experience that will prove valuable when most of the squad returns next year. VARSITY—G. Kneen, C. Rich, M.

Backboned by the return of five senior lettermen, Dick Lee, John Connor, Bruce Boleyn, Dave Cole, and John Stewart and ably supported by Jim Timothy with the assistance of last year’s sophomores, the team was mold- ed into a hard-fighting club. The team compiled another fine season in the Eastern Mass. League. With the sparkling per- formance of Bruce Boleyn between the pipes, the team ex- hibited great scrappiness in defeating Malden twice, Ded- ham once, and tieing Natick. The latter contest was climaxed by a furious finish in which Lexington while short-handed came from behind in the third period to erase a two-goal deficit and to go ahead 3-2, only to have Natick produce the equalizer seconds later. In the win over Dedham, Lex- ington was paced by Dick Lee, who turned in the hat trick. The second Malden game was a thriller as Dick Gazan’s backhander stood up as the lone tally.

Individ- ually, Tom Moon, who showed great promise in the nets, seemed to have inherited the ability of his Dad, a former great, once a coach at Lexington High.

The inexperienced members worked as competently as the varsity throughout the season to improve their performance. The girls, mostly sophomores and juniors, showed initiative and enthusiasm in the games, and great promise for the future. Working un- selfishly together and meeting their opponents with deter- mination, the team produced able players and set up stiff competition for their opponents. An energetic, hard-working group of girls made up a scrappy softball team this year. Under the capable guidance of Coach Leavitt they had an exciting and profitable sea- son. Practicing regularly, the team worked well together and was greatly helped by veterans Judy Lollis, Phillis Carpenito, Judi Porter, and Mary Siekman.

In this our junior year we awakened to the fact that life was not just a bowl of cherries. We were getting up in the world and had to prepare to assume responsibilities. With the approach of our senior year we had to meet the problem of raising money for our class. The corridors buzzed with enthusiasm as we prepared for our Junior Prom, which was both a financial and a social success. We also found that our gay record hop and our carnival booth boosted our growing treasury. Of course, our “key” officials, Mike Fosberg, President; Pat Cutter, Vice-president; Judy Lollis, Secretary; and Lance Cooper, Treasurer, had a hand in the success of these projects. The never-ending zeal of the Stu- dent Council was aided by Judy McNamara, the vice-pres- ident, and our members, Lance Cooper, Bo Chu, Joanne Herbold, Joe Donnelly, and John Schumacher. The bleacher fans at the school’s tense football and bas- ketball games were led in many peppy cheers by Nance Garrity, Bunny Kensley, Joanne Herbold, Pat Cutter, Ruth Ann Parece, Judi Porter, Mary Ann Sainato, and Carolyn Sweeney, our class’s contribution to the cheerleading squad. Directing the colorful band through its intricate formations was our energetic head majorette, Sheila Cass and two of her cute cohorts, Marilyn Munsey and Marion Maloon. Nat- Third row: J.

Dunlap, Miss urally, in order to generate enthusiasm, we also contributed such determined boys as John Schumacher, the leading ground-gainer, Russ Carlson, Bob Clements, Bill Stewart, and John Overton to the varsity football team, and Bill Tapply and Pete Lappin to the basketball squad. Our girls played equally hard and well on varsity field hockey, soft- ball, basketball, and tennis squads. How can we ever forget those chatty Driver Education classes with Mr. Knight where we learned how not to bang up our parents’ car! And how could anyone help but hear our girls’ moans as they resounded in the locker room after their famous modern dancing routines of painful bends and stretches! And no matter how hard we try, the source theme terror will haunt us for life! From the fatal day of picking subjects through the six weeks of reading, taking notes, writing, rewriting, and more reading, we burned the mid- night oil every night. Poor Mrs. Creamer had a tremendous job of regulating the Library during junior research assign- ments. We'll never know how any teacher can smile as he says the words “source theme.” And now since we have completed such a profitable year in experience and education, we are looking forward to a terrific senior year.

Out of our bewildered world we have entered one of carefree progressiveness. We finally feel that we can add something definite to our expanding school. Our class officers, Paul Downey, President; Richard Chapman, Vice-president; Ho Chu, Secretary; and Patricia DeSimone, Treasurer, have contributed much to our success. This fine team has come up with many ideas for improving our cltiss standing such as selling blue and gold shakers at football games to increase school spirit, holding two food sales, and by sponsoring a dance for the entire student body. Our homeroom representatives Nancy Baird, Judy King, John Dwyer, Ruth Morash, Janet Ross, Sandra Spears, and Marcia Worth really went to work representing us and helping to make our projects successful. Besides our homeroom repre- sentatives, we must mention our fine Student Council repre- sentatives Nancy Baird, Ho Chu, Paul Downey, Geraldine Fopiano, and Gretchen Miller. Each one of these enthusiastic students has been on at least one committee set up by the council to aid the school. We are also extremely well repre- sented in the numerous and varied school clubs, as well as having one of our own, Sophomore French Club. One thing we will always remember about these carefree days is Thanksgiving Day when Lexington turned the tide and beat our strongest rival Concord. Certainly we can claim definite part in this victory. John Dwyer and Mark Third row: R. Evans, T. DeGeorge, P. Downey, J. A. Dwyer, D. Fisher, M. Conant, C. Duval, P. Cleveland, D. Ernest, J. Fogler. Second row: J. Doherty, L. Daigle, M. Fane, C. Cole, D. Dillman, Mr. Turner, L. DeAmicis, C. D’Entre- 91 Jensen were successful in making the first string of the varsity team. Also we provided a good number of alternate players, a vital part of any team. When it comes to spirit, we again proved our enthusiasm. Charlene Tropeano, a member of the varsity cheerleading squad, was right out there leading the crowd in many peppy cheers. Diana Crumb and Geral- dine Fopiano, as perky drum majorettes, helped to keep up the morale of the fans when the battle became tense and closely contested. In basketball, hockey, and baseball we made up a good portion of the all-important Junior Varsity teams. Some of our boys even saw occasional action on the varsity squad. However, it was not only our boys who participated in sports. Many girls turned out to play field hockey, basket- ball, tennis, and softball. As with the boys, the girls were especially prominent on the junior varsity teams, although we did have one girl, Lydia DiAmicis, on the varsity field hockey team and twelve members on the combined junior varsity and varsity basketball team. To the Freshmen we say, don’t let t he bewildered feeling get you down, next year will be much more satisfying. To the juniors and seniors who tell us we have yet to face the problems of life we say, maybe so. All we know is that this year we have been able to combine study, work, and fun to provide us with a carefree, happy, and successful year. Room 123 mont, D. Curtin, A. Figenbaum, J. Cronier.

ERE Ie rae sieacaniss 96 Perhaps we freshmen are small in stature and bewildered newcomers to high school life, but we've really come through in high spirits. Of course, we were surprised when we arrived in September. The idea of choosing our courses for the first time, the many clubs we could join, the exciting elections for class leaders, the pep rallies where everyone in the school cheered together, the many lunch shifts arranged so that we had only a little time to eat and chat, and many other events astonished us. Even after we thought we had settled down into the routine of classes, X and L, more classes, and homework, all sprinkled with the laughter and ideas of our friends, we discovered that there were even more unusual events in store for us. Now we found ourselves taking library lessons to help us with our homework, and orientation classes to help us learn about the people around us. In spite of these many unexpected happenings we had time to make octopuses for our booth at “Carnival '56” and to correspond with a four- teen-year-old girl of Enterprise, Utah, a farming community of 950. Just think, there are only thirty-one students in her ninth grade, while there are three hundred and forty-two in ours. We were all relieved and overjoyed when the day finally came for us to move into our homeroom in the brand- new wing. Lee Carlson, our class President; Marie Spinelli, our Sec- Third row: J.

Buckingham, Miss Hartley, C. retary; and Pat Thoren, our Treasurer; have all helped us accomplish these many things by their never-ending enthu- siasm. We waited anxiously for the results of the election for our three Student Council members until we discovered that we had wisely chosen James Kyle, Elizabeth Living- stone, and Richard Robbatt. Our peppy cheerleaders, Pauline Borselli, Lee Kelly, Pat Thoren, Pat Goddard, Patsy Gallagher, Jean Flannery, Kris Press, Maureen Lollis, and Sally Neale, with Betty Living- stone, captain, led us on to victory in many of our football and basketball games. We burst into exuberant cheers when, after sitting on the edge of the bleachers for most of our football season, we discovered that our wonderful fresh- man team was undefeated. Dick Kinsman, Boudy Spiers, Boyd Robinson, Bruce Brinklow, Bill Caterino, and all the other enthusiastic boys on our teams did the work, however, even though we cheered them on. We were all delighted to see Joyce Sherlock and N ancy Govan, capable drum major- ettes, help lead the famous Lexington High School Band, which included seventy-seven of our most musically-inclined fellow students. Although we were new and bewildered at the beginning of the year, all these exciting events have brought our fresh- man year to a wonderful close, so we are sure that our suc- ceeding years will be even more enjoyable and profitable.
