The Planning Board “Every man is the architect of his own future.” School studies, teachers, activities, and athletics help man to ac- quire skill in employing the tools with which to mold his life. Thus your Lexington this year portrays step by step the process for training the student throughout the school year to accept the responsibilities and moral obligations which life will present to him. But as his life unfolds before him, the choice. as to which course that life is to follow will still be the decision of “Everyman.” Table of Contents The Building Committee Page 3 The Blueprints Page I] The Structural Timbers Page 29 The Finishing Touches Page 55 Model for America Editor-in-chief Assistant editor Business manager Anne Wadsworth Lois Carota Allan Prescott Assistant manager Assistant manager Art work Photographer Cover Candids Printers Robert Biggert Seelye Martin John Thornton Harvard Studio Peter Zitso '44 Robert Prescott Martha Nason Wm.

Warren, Principal B.A., Bowdoin College M.A., Columbia University To the members of the Graduating Class: “Every man is the architect of his own fu- ture.’ What a fortunate choice this is as the motto for our school! You can think of its meaning and apply it to your own experi- ences in life—and see that it is true. During your high school years you have been building an important foundation for your future life. Some of this foundation has been the knowledge and understanding that has come from reading and listening and thinking and deciding what is right or best; some of it has been the standards of conduct and ideals that make your character; and some has been the attitude you show toward your opportunities, your responsibilities, and toward other people—that is, your person- ality. You have been developing into the kind of person you are going to be. You have had the advice of your parents, the help of your teachers, the example and in- fluence of other people, but you yourself have really made the decisions. You are the architect of your own future. EDWARD E.

N.H.S. members are chosen on a point system on the basis of character, service, leadership, and scholarship. Members this year include Murray Ingraham, President; Cynthia Rich, Vice-president; Anne Wads- worth, Secretary; Judy Lollis, Treasurer. Among the services performed were ushering at P.T.A. functions, guest-greeting, and aid- ing wherever higher school standards could be obtained. As guest-greeters, N.H.S. mem- bers were continually ready to welcome and orient visitors in a courteous and pleasant manner. One of the year’s most commendable projects was the raising of money to provide a scholarship for a senior who was not a mem- ber of N.H.S. Some other activities were the selling of Lexington High School handbooks and sweatshirts, a pencil vending machine, and a Student-Faculty basketball game. Sin- cere congratulations to the members and ad- visors of Lexington’s National Honor Society for their support and contributions toward the betterment of our school. The student governing body got off to a good start by electing capable officers: Judy McNamara as President, Paul Downey as Vice-president, Nancy Baird as Secretary, and Bill Tapply as Treasurer. In their weekly Wednesday meetings under Advisor Mr. Adzigian the Student Council carried out its regular duties such as organizing the Assem- bly, Pep Rally, Football, Traffic, and Lunch- room Committees along with deciding upon other worthwhile programs for the school. One of these plans was the giving of Merit Awards to outstanding pupils who were not given other recognition. Lexington High re- ceived an unusual honor when they were in- vited to b e the host for the annual Student Council Convention. Student Councils from many of the Eastern Massachusetts towns participated in the General Assembly, Dis- cussion Groups, Dinner, and Dancing which aioe . STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS: P. Downey, J.

Assisted by its officers Janet Cole, President, Harriet Anthony, Vice-pres- ident, Carla Scribner, Secretary, and Susan MacDonald, Treasurer, with Betsy Lyon as chairman, the club was able to accomplish many of its aims. At Christmas members made posters, nutcups, table clothes, and placemats for Veterans’ Hospitals; later they collected, packed, and sent fifty gift boxes overseas. One of the major projects was the sending of a chest filled with toothpaste, gum, baseballs, and other toys to underprivileged children abroad. The club supported the National Red Cross Council by making a special canvass in the spring. Thus the Junior Red Cross succeeded in bringing pleasure to those less fortunate than we, and at the same ‘time contributed to the citizenship of its members.

Editor-in-chief Anne Wadsworth and her assistant Lois Carota, heading a hard-working staff, turned out an action- packed review of our school year which featured a theme relating how every pupil’s future is designed during his years in high school. Clever sketches by John Thornton helped to carry out this theme from cover to cover, and lively candid shots by Bob Prescott and Martha Nason helped to express the vitality of our school spirit at many of our activities. The book not only portrayed the seniors separately, but all un- derclassmen were shown in homeroom groups, in classes, and in groups relating to their varied interests. Additional work- ers on the book were those zealous homeroom representa- tives whose duties were to take subscriptions and to publicize the yearbook. Financial matters were ably handled by Busi- ness Manager Allan Prescott and his assistants Seelye Martin and Robert Biggert. These boys also made it possible for over six hundred students to own a cherished copy of the yearbook. Many were the long hours finishing picture cap- tions and editorial work to meet a deadline—the staff being spurred on often by Miss Kinley and Mr. Moyle. The result, dear reader, you now hold in your hands! LHS Bestseller Second row: P. O'Leary, J. Battersby, M. Woodward, J. Overton, S. Plum- mer, R. Prescott, D. Eames, A. Gerbes, S. MacDonald.

Our Town, the Pulitzer Prize play by Thornton Wilder, was chosen as the senior class play this year. The story told about a small town, Grovers Corners, New Hampshire, and the lives of its people in the early part of the century. With a cast of twenty-four, and nineteen extras, the director, Mr. Kirk, and the assistant director and stage manager, Sylvia Sands, turned this play into one of Lexington High School’s best productions. Janet Cole was assistant stage manager and in charge of properties, Mr. Swan took care of the light- ing, and Patricia O'Leary, Costume Mistress, Frederick Slader and Donald Parker, stage hands, and Prompter Marilyn Wood, helped behind the scenes. The Chorus was organized by Mrs. Sandberger, and Mr. Tullar was in charge of make- up. Part of the success was brought about by senior ticket selling directed by Mr. Ingraham. Our high school orchestra provided the music under the direction of Mr. Gillespie. An eventful milestone was passed in the school’s history, for this was the first dramatic production to be staged in our new auditorium. “Meanwhile, backstage at the senior play .. . ” M. Wood, P.

Ruddigore’s Sweet and Sassy This year’s operetta Ruddigore was presented in perfect Sandberger form. It was the twenty-first Gilbert and Sullivan operetta to be put on at L.H.S. and was held in the new auditorium on March 21 and March 22. The cast was com- posed of approximately eighty. This included a boys’ and a girls’ chorus totaling sixty-five and approximately fifteen leading parts. The leads were doubly cast this year so that one group played the parts on Friday night and one on Sat- urday night. In this way more students had a chance to par- ticipate.

The or- chestra started its full season in September by playing at the dedication exercises for the Senior High School; following this up, it pro- vided the music for the annual senior play in December, an assembly program for the stu- dent body, a night program for the Rotary Club, and excellent performances at its sev- eral concerts. Band members also spent a busy season with football games, a joint con- cert with Woburn, the May Festival in Win- chester, and the Spring Concert. Twelve of the best and most interested band members or- ganized a dance band under the leadership of Mr. White. A snappy part of the marching band is the majorettes. The students have en- joyed the high-stepping routines of Sheila Cass, head majorette, and her squad at all our games and pep rallies. Tooting and Twirling Standing: L. Bacheldor, J. Sherlock, M.

This year the pep and orig- inality of our cheerleaders produced a number of new Freshman and Varsity cheers. Our girls placed third at the Needham competition. At pep rallies and games the cheer- leaders, under the leadership of Pat Cutter, Varsity, and Mary Chicarillo, Freshman, led the spectators in rousing cheers to create and main- tain school spirit. With two at- tractive groups of cheerlead- ers full of life and vitality like ours, the comment may be made that it is no wonder this has been a successful sports season for LHS. Third row: D.

Dramatis personae: Carolyn Vogel, Murray Ingraham, and Ellen Bur- rows rehearsing for the French Club play, ‘‘Leave It to Suzanne.”’ For the French Club the year of 1957-58 was profitable, entertaining, and instructive in all phases of activity. This year club members, under the leadership of President John Ober- teuffer, Vice-president Ann Poehler, Secretary Judi Porter, Treasurer Martha Schechter, Program Chairman Anne Wads- worth, and Advisor Miss Piermarini, increased their know- ledge of the French language and customs and had a great time doing it. Unaffected by the more limited membership caused by new school regulations, French Club had a play put on by members Murray Ingraham, Carolyn Vogel, Ellen Burrows, Judy Rutherford, Jay Hanson, and others made money on a food sale and a Cabaret, and spent some of it on a Christmas party. The Cabaret, the Club’s traditional fete, was attended and enjoyed by many of the students of L.H.S. Through their many activities French Club members have this year both broadened their minds and enriched their experiences through a foreign medium. From speakers, movies, and entertainment put on by club members to the pre-Christmas Banquet and the end-of-the- year outing, the members of the Spanish Club learned much and also enjoyed themselves during the year of 1957-58. The club put on a food sale to raise money, took a field trip to the Gardiner Museum, and adopted a new club song com- posed by two of the members. In December ‘‘Los Amigos’’ held their annual Banquet, which was Spanish in every detail, from costumes to food, and invited as guests club advisor Mrs. Leake and her husband, Mr. Harry Leake, Mrs. Winslow Hatch and John Hatch, and Mr. and Mrs. Cheever. Highlight of the dinner was the breaking of the pinata by a blind- folded Mr. Cheever after six or eight mighty swings of his baseball bat. At their meetings the club was led by President Peggy Hoyt, Vice-president George Meyers, Secretary Peg- SPANISH CLUB OFFICERS: Second row: P. Poulleys, P. Fleming.

At Your Service The Lexington High School traffic squad, which maintained law and order in the corridors and on the stairways between classes, was confronted with a bigger problem this year, for it had to direct over one thousand students. The new wing also created a problem, but, with the advice of Mr. Adzigian and Co-captains Sandy Taylor and Alan Murphy, the group enforced the speed limit and kept congestion at a minimum.

Attention Now The six members of the public address committee, with Alan Murphy in charge, made sure that the students were kept informed about any meetings, assemblies, and changes in schedules. Also the impressive little advertisements for school dances or any other major productions such as the senior play or operetta were heard in the classrooms through the voices of this committee. The P.A. Committee deserves special thanks for the necessary daily announcements in our smoothly run organization. Third row: R. Prescott, B. Towl, R. Carlson, R. Bennett, W. Tapply, P. Lappin, F.

This Com- mittee was composed of fifteen members of the football team who were appointed to represent authority. Some of the numerous duties it performed were setting up and carry- ing through regulations on lunch line procedure, good con- du ct, waste paper disposal, and entrances and exits to the lunchroom.

Much credit is due the capable officers, President John Overton, Vice-president Judy Beauliet, Sec- retary Carolyn Sweeney, and Treasurer Beat Schurch, who planned many projects for the twenty-nine members. The club met bi-weekly on Tuesday or, as on one occasion, visited the Fine Arts Museum for an exhidit on ‘European Masters of Our Time.” Christmas decorations in the school are also one of the Art Club projects which are enjoyed by all.

Because so many students showed an interest in Art Club, it was necessary to create another club. The new club, backed by enthusiastic members, started well on the road to success when the following officers were elected: President Jeff Merrick, Vice-president Leslie Parker, Secretary Patricia Phalen, and Treasurer Simone Juda. As this year was really one for organization for the club, few big projects or field trips were planned. Among the smaller projects attempted were posters for the school and the making of Christmas decorations. Parker, J. Merrick, S. Juda, N. Kaufman, A. Lebouf, B. Roberts. : 5 4 : + ; . Third row: B.

Toward the Furtherance of Knowledge Future Teachers of America, headed by President Linda Terrio, Vice-president Judy Steinhauser, Treasurer Judy Ru- therford, and Secretary Kathy Hunt, was for students seri- ously interested in the profession. Various age levels of teaching—elementary school, junior or senior high, and col- lege—were discussed with speakers or panel members. The members welcomed some practice when they visited Lexing- ton grammar school classrooms and were given the oppor- tunity to take over themselves. Third row: Mrs. Creamer (Advisor), J. Coryell, C.

These students gained a better understanding of how to run a library. During the year they also donated their time towards making scrapbooks and gifts for several chil- dren’s hospitals. Many attended the annual Christmas party at which fun took the place of work. This spring they visited other libraries to learn even more about the functioning of a school library. S. Fisher, M.

The main work of the year was to train boys to operate the audio-visual machines of the school, such as, projectors, tape-recorders, and record players. The club also was helpful to teachers wishing to supplement classroom learning with films or records. Charts were made showing which boys were available at various times. The mechanical knowledge of the boys, a sense of school duty, and help- fulness combined to make this club much ap- preciated by all. Third row: R. Blanchette, R. MacLean, D. Snow, P. Meadows.

Bringing this year to a close, the Science Club thanks its hard-working officers, Presi- dent Ann Kaufmann, Vice-president Judy Fox, Secretary George Pacheco, and Treasurer Grandon Harris for executing a successful club program. The thirty-eight members, students interested in science, met bi-weekly for demonstrations, films, and speakers on fascinating subjects, such as atomic energy. Among the many educational field trips were those to the Ford Plant in Somerville and the Esso Refinery in Everett. And, of course, we cannot forget thesannual Science Fair in which students submitted their projects in competition for the top honors. 50 This year’s Chess Club consisted of ten members, five of whom were beginners. Their officers were President Ronald Cahill, Secre- tary Ann Gustin, and Treasurer Hou Chu. In their meetings brief explanations were given to the group by the more experienced play- ers and they were also given time to practice the game. Playing time was organized so that every player played every other player, and from time-to-time an adult came to play with them, thus offering a challenge to the club. Members soon realized that chess playing was something that would continue its value in the future. Second row: T. Benoit, W. Johnston, Miss Allen (Advisor), J. Benoit, P. Smith. First row: J.

This year the newly organized Bridge Club met every Tuesday during X L to learn the fine points of the game and to teach others how to play. Through these meetings the twenty-two members were able to practice and to play with many different partners. This club under the leadership of Mr. Buck, the advisor, and officers Cynthia Carpenter, President; Bob Prescott, Vice-president; Nan- cy Eaton, Secretary, and Christine Saunder- son, Treasurer, sponsored a very interesting Bridge Tournament in which all L. H. S. bridge enthusiasts participated. This new club proved to be both interesting and worthwhile and promises to continue to be so in the years ahead. 51 ee — easege we. Third row: J. Kyle, R.

Ad- vised by Mr. McCormack, the committee is headed by Ruth Ann Parece, Chairman, Susan Steele, Vice-chairman, and Marie Spinelli, Secretary. The weight of most of the school assemblies falls on this group since all performances except those of specific clubs must be carefully programmed and arranged by this twenty-member organization. As a future goal, the committee hopes to prepare a permanent two- week program for both recreational and educational purposes. Third row: S. Wilkins, J. Whieldon, C. Spears, R. Mattson, P.

Under the Presi- dency of Robert Prescott and the Advisorship of Mr. Buck, in its bi-weekly meetings on Thursdays, the club learned new techniques to improve their skill. Some of the more energetic members even supplied candid shots for the Yearbook. With the use of a new dark room and an enlarger, they were able to develop their own photographs and observed the mistakes which they made. The advantage of the Photography Club was that it had the best opportunity to catch and keep mem- orable shots of our school life. Dunn, J. Martin, A. Gorman, B. Robinson, E. Rongone, S. Larsh, K.

The Athletic and the Dramatic With the increasing interest in skiing at Lexington High School, a new season for the club was launched under the leadership of Bruce Towle. The purpose of creating more in- terest for both beginners and advanced skiers stimulated the greatly increased membership. How to handle and to care for their equipment was just as important to the club as their many ski trips throughout New Hampshire and Massachusetts during the winter months. These frequent excursions were well attended and gave each one an opportunity to apply all he had learned in the previous months under the guidance of Mr. DiGiammarino. One of the most popular clubs in school, Dramatic Club again had little trouble in promoting an active and success- ful year. On the first and third Mondays of each month Presi- dent Sylvia Sands, Vice president Elaine Moran, Secretary Nancy Miller, and Treasurer Marilyn Munsey conducted the meetings according to a previously established program. Once a month a guest speaker presented a talk on some phase of dramatics. On alternating meetings various mem- bers attempted to protray the speaker’s subject in the form of a short play or skit. Last November, as a field trip, the club attended “Dark of the Moon,” a drama performance by the M.I.T. players. First row: M. Hart, J. Adams, W. Mears, J. MacNamara, K. Purcell, R. Harvey, M.

Jenson. “Beautiful, Sophisticated, Charming .. .” A Rag, a Bone, and a Hank of Hair In the second year of its existence the Lexington High Young Moderns Club practically doubled its already sizable number. Officers of the club were June Tracy, President; Gail Munroe, Vice-president; Debbie Dowd, Secretary, and Pau- line Borselli, Treasurer. Interest in modeling, clothes design- ing, and airline stewardess work was inspired by discussions with professionals in those fields. Along with the usual fashion shows, sponsored by Simplicity and other such organizations, there was an unusual, entertaining, and new outlook on the mixing and matching of patterns, and materials and colors Young Moderns Members, “To make ourselves more attractive... important to the well-dressed person. A special project, se- cretly planned, when presented to the student body, turned out to be a fashion show illustrating the uncomplementary difference in one’s appearance when one combines, for in- stance, stripes with checks rather than stripes with solid colors. It also pointed out the well-tailored look of slacks and blouses as opposed to dungarees and sweatshirts. In the preceeding interesting ways this girls’ club did much to arouse interest in better grooming and manners throughout the school. The Finishing Touches Aer ili Fourth row: A. Gorman, R. Haugh, R.

They Tackled the Thing That Couldn't Be Done and They Did It Under the new coaching regime of John L. Knight and company the well-conditioned 1957 football team, led by Co-captains Russ Carlson and John Schumacher, fought up- hill doggedly to top off the season by beating Concord 7-6 and to keep the 1775 musket in Lexington. At the campaign’s outset the opposition was fortunate in not having to face the steam-rolling team that Lexington finished with; for backed by a great school spirit, the team steadily improved until it exploded at the last home stand by defeating Reading 23-0. Top-running Winchester nearly fell under the fighting LHS team and only scored with a minute left in the game, but a moral victory was won by Lexington. With Lappin With all this effort, how can we help but win on 56 Thanksgiving? romping with an intercepted pass and Wilkie booting the all-important extra point, Lexington held a good Concord team at bay with Bonnell, Stewart, Coyte, Fardy, Birch, Peterson, and Palmer coming through with the tackles. Open- ing the holes for Schumacher, Spires, Spears, and Robbat was the strong line of Carlson, Overton, Clements, Paxton, Dwyer, O’Shaughnessy, and Robinson. Able reserve man- power was supplied by Fardy, Hatch, and Marsan. The rugged practice sessions of the season resulted in the great team play displayed at a 1957 Thanksgiving game not to be forgotten for some time. Evasion tactics are successfully employed by Dick Robbat (18) and Boudy Spires (16).

The freshman football team completed their 1957-58 season with a two-one-four record. Under the direction of Coach Gibson the freshman squad worked hard to become physically fit and mentally able to play a hard sportsman- like game of football. Led by Co-captains Joe Skinner and Al Pakstis, the team defeated Stoneham and Melrose in well-played games that were typical of the season’s best action. The twenty-three man squad however was ham- pered greatly by injuries and sickness, which sometimes cut the squad down to fifteen men. Joe Skinner suffered an ankle injury and many other key men were put out of action by other such injuries or by sickness. The freshman football team should not be the forgotten team of the year, for they showed sportsmanship and team spirit and got started off on the right foot to represent the best in Lexington High School athletics.

The popularity of golf has increased dur- ing recent years to the point that local com- petition is growing harder to beat. The returning lettermen, Paul Visco and Walter Hodgden, improved under Mr. Coffin’s guid- ance and inspired their teammates. Bearing in mind that this sport can be continued after high school years, it becomes clear that these boys are learning a very important life rule, that of patience. The future of the golf team at Lexington High School points the way to good sportsmanship and citizenship for all participants.

The team improved considerably in skill and playing ability through long yet rewarding practices. Since many of the girls were three-year players, veteran team work was much in evidence. Together with their co-captains, forward Judi Porter and guard Sheila Cass, the girls worked out many plays which were used with much success. Forwards Doreen Dillman and Judi Porter were the team’s high scorers. The guards also should be commended for their excellent defense that brought the team its victories. New players gained skill with practice and give promise of future stars for Lexington’s girls’ varsity squad next year.

Their motto seemed to be to play one’s best and practice good sportsmanship at all times. As far as wins and losses were concerned, they came out about even. But the experience of teamwork and the mastering of timing resulted in a commendable team and season. Junior Varsity 20 14 20 0 21 21 Belmont Concord Melrose Wellesley Winchester Arlington B.

Bill shows Pete how to keep the ball out of reach This year Coach Doc Abell built one of the finest basketball teams Lexington High has seen for several years. Although we did not equal Belmont or Winchester in height, we were skilled as a running team, scoring a decisive victory over Winchester in a home game. Other close games were played against Belmont here in the first half, Con- cord, and a thrilling high-scoring game at Wakefield. Returning to varsity basketball for the third consecutive year were Bill Tap- ply and Pete Lappin who were elected co- captains. Bill and Pete were the nucleus of the team, Pete supplying the drive, and Bill being high scorer. The usual starting lineup consisted of Bill Tapply, left forward, Pete Lappin, left guard, Paul Ward, center, Chet Duval, right forward, and John Faucette, right guard. But it took more than a starting lineup to make an outstanding squad. With the fine ability of scrappy Murray Ingraham, sophomores Jay Jones, Tom Mahan, and Charlie Rolando, senior class president Mike Fosburg, and John Schumacher and Don MacElroy who unfortunately were out of play part of the time because of injuries, we were able to gain one of the best ratings in recent years.

The year’s high- light was the win over Belmont’s Jayvees, Belmont being the biggest competitor in the Middlesex League. Its starting line-up was made up of forwards, Tom Mahan, Bill Caterino, Dave Hatfield, and Bruce Brinklow, center, Peter Arnold, and guards, Bob Spillane, Charlie Rolando, and Dick Robbatt. This team had many promising prospects for the varsity club, among them Pete Arnold, Charlie Rolando, and Bob Spillane, who were given a chance to see some varsity action this year. These boys displayed a sense of teamwork and much spirit in their games that Lexington is assured of other good varsity teams in future years. Third row: T. Stokes, W. Converse, P. Arsenault, D.

First row: The Freshmen started off their basketball careers in high school by displaying talent and skill on their basketball squad. The team, coached by Mr. Turner and captained by Bob Greenlaw, played some hard games and displayed admirable spirit. The squad, with its lineup, Bob Greenlaw, forward, Peter Gray, center, Ted Oldakowski, guard, Tuck Jones, guard, willing substitutes Jerry Cogan, Wayne Rob- erts, and many others, ran, dribbled, and shot its way to a successful season before the enthusiastic cheerleaders and fans. The talent and skill shown by many of these boys will appear on the varsity squads next year. N. McGonagle, R. Johnson, T. Jones, B. Greenlaw, P. Grey, T. Oldakowski, J. Cogan.

The girls’ tennis team of Lexington High School played some very fast and enthusiastic games this year with Belmont, Winchester, Melrose, Concord, Arlington, and Watertown. Each girl fought whole-heartedly to win a higher place on the varsity team. This enthu- siastic spirit helped to make their season a satisfactory one and helped to improve their skill as tennis players. Cooperation and hard work were the mottos of the girls’ softball team, and this year they really lived up to those words. In addition to this, the girls showed a vigorous compet- itive spirit during the games with Belmont, Winchester, Melrose, Concord, Arlington, and Reading, and kept up the Lexington tradition of good sportsmanship.

This year our tennis team was fortunate to be headed by our new coach Mr. Flynn, who, with his previous experience in tennis, aided the group in improving their skills. Led by re- turning letterman, Bruce Towl, the squad had a successful season and developed the strong potential of the underclassmen. Matches with Winchester and Belmont were full of action and allowed many of the boys to display their abilities. The response to tennis as a sport in the school has improved over the past years so that now we have a team to be justly proud of. A better than average season was enjoyed by this year’s baseball team under the direction of Coach Adzigian. Several lettermen returned for their third year, and others came from last year’s Jayvee squad and the unusually promising freshman team. Leading pitching returners Pete Lappin, Eddie Durfer, Tom Wilkie, Bill Caterino, and Steve Palmer were admirably supported by veteran infielders Bill Tapply, Murray Ingraham, and John Faucette. The only varsity experience in the outfield was also supplied by Pete Lappin and Bill Caterino, The new three-game-a-week schedule provided plenty of fast action and excitement in the contest for top honors in the Middlesex League.

CLASS OF 1958 Looking back on our four years in high school, we can fully realize the tremendous strides we have taken towards becoming mature men and women. In addition. to the valuable knowledge we gained in classes, many of us attained notable awards in ath- letics, citzenship, and scholarship. Although we encountered many barriers, the experi- ence we gained in vaulting them has been and shall continue to be important in our lives. In the future we again will probably feel insecure, but the vast knowledge we have acquired will soon quell this feeling. Thus we will all happily recall our high school days and the new horizons that challenged us there. Let us all graduate eager to face the future, proud when we remember the past.

PATRIC BARBIERI CHARLES CALL RICHARD SPENCER 87 88 The Foundation Progresses Class of 1959 As Juniors, our plans for future careers and further educa- tion advanced to the drawing-board stage. President Danny “Rebel” Rester assisted by Vice-preisdent Dick Chap- man, Secretary Hou Chu, and Treasurer Pat De Simone worked enthusiastically and introduced some original activ- ities contributing to our overall success. Realizing that graduation was only a year away, mem- bers of the class volunteered to enlarge our treasury and promote basketball interest by selling blue and gold pen- cils imprinted with the basketball schedule. Our wettest project was a spring carwash. Class members, decked out in their sloppiest clothes, crawled under, over, in, and out- side the cars of Lexington residents, and gave them a most thorough cleaning—for a small fee! These same students, attired in formal dress, which con- trasted with the casual clothes and activity of our carwash, attended what our class considered to be the most successful dance of the year—the Junior Prom. Other classmates who helped on these projects were the Junior Student Council representatives, Judy Cizek, Paul Downey, Charlene Tro- peano, Charlie Glenn, Hou Chu, Dick Chapman, and Nancy Baird, who was elected secretary. } Pig 1 a | qi +18 33 Ad pe ee Many Juniors also achieved distinction in various extra- curricular activities. Those outstanding in music during the classical program assemblies were Peter Clark, organist; Robert Fogg, pianist; Albert Lenos, violinist; and Carolyn Cole, soprano. Carolyn Cole and Peter Clark also had solo parts in the school operetta Ruddigore. Turning from these calmer forms of entertainment, we find that football stands out in our minds. Who could forget our victorious Thanksgiving game in which a Junior—Tom Wilkie—scored the winning point against Concord? But who could help winning when the team was energetically cheered on by Charlene Tropeano, Betty Ann Simon, and Janet Ross, members of the cheerleading squad, a group which won third place in the cheerleaders competition at Needham. Drum majorettes from our class were Dee Dee Crumb and Gerry Fopiano. The football season wound up with an assembly when letters were awarded to several Juniors and to John Dwyer who received the Edward Mc- Namara award. Such events have shown the achievements of an energetic class destined to become the school’s leaders next year.

We know that we are now able to contribute something worthwhile and creative to the student body. We have done so this year and will continue to do this in the years ahead. We were well represented this past year in all school activities and clubs. Our members of the Drum Majorettes, Mary Ellen Shannon, Joyce Sherlock, and Linda Bacheldor inspired school spirit while marching and twirling in time with the band. Meanwhile out on the field players such as Boudy Spiers, Dick Kinsman, Boyd Robinson, Don Birch, Dick Robbat, and Jimmy O’Shaunessy contributed their ef- forts to this year’s football team. Other athletic members of our class, both boys and girls, participated in sports on other teams as well. This year, for a change, a sophomore made Lexington’s varsity basketball team. He was Jay Jones and played center, the keyhole position. Room 115 In this year’s operetta, Ruddigore, Lee Carlson, Doug Stuart, and Bill Mears had solo parts. Other musically in- clined sophomores contributed their talents to the band and orchestra. Class officers, Jim Kyle, President; Al Woodhull, Vice- President; Marie Spinelli, Secretary, and Betty Livingstone, Treasurer, conscientiously worked for the good of our class. Our Student Council members, Nancy Ingraham, Leila Kelley, Jim Kyle, Dick Robbat, and Doug Stuart, faithfully represented us and anticipated our needs. Our class ad- visor, Mr. Franz, devoted his limited time to the supervision of our class projects and activities. To him we are grateful. Having acquired a firm and lasting foundation in our freshman year, we have risen to greater heights this year. Next year we hope to come even closer to achieving the goals and standards we have set for ourselves. Third row: G. Connor, D. Colby, D. Carlson, E. Cavatorta, J. Carrier, W. Caterino, B.

Beach. for the Future Class of 1961 Our freshman year opened new opportunities to us and we began to build up those abilities and traits of character which will shape our futures. At first the size of our school and the number of students and teachers made us feel like little fish in a big pond, but soon we were happily settled in the routine of high school life. A few weeks after our arrival we elected our class offi- cers: President Bob Greenlaw, Vice-president Ellen Schu- macher, Secretary Carol Roblin, and Treasurer Nathalie Hutchins. We also elected Ronnie Anastasy, Janet Donnelly, and Sherman Kelly to represent us in Student Council. Sportswise, our year started off with a bang. In football Hal Pakstis, Doug Rice, and Ed Stuart helped our team win. Bob Greenlaw, Peter Grey, Ronnie Johnson, and Ted Olda- kowski made our basketball team victorious many times. While the boys were busy with football and basketball, Lois Horton, Carol Roblin, and Beth Berglund contributed to the excellent season of the field hockey squad. And our exuberant cheerleaders, (Captain) Mary Chicarello, Trudy Chapman, Bonnie Herbold, Susan Lewis, Susan Jensen, Pat Room 107 King, Sheila Gallagher, Lois Tower, Daryll Zeoli, and Ellen Schumacher helped cheer our teams to victory. David Maxwell, pianist; Marie Lenos, violinist; and our boys in the operetta, Richard Martin, David Maxwell, James Taylor, and Jeff Williams were some of our musically tal- ented classmen. Others, musically inclined, in our class be- longed to Glee Club, Orchestra, and Band. Meanwhile many joined Audio-Visual Club, Photography Club, Junior Red Cross, and the Library Staff to pursue their interests. New clubs, Bridge Club and Chess Club, were also supported by freshmen. We had our own Young Moderns Club because of the large number of enthusiastic freshman girls who joined it. Also our talented classmen upheld the plans of Dramatic Club. We feel our freshman year at Lexington High School has been a successful one. The future, we are also sure, has big responsibilities and even bigger victories for us, so our soph- omore year beckons and challenges us in an exciling man- ner. We will be there to meet it zealously. Third row: R. Burnham, P. Conant, G. Butters, R. Carmichael, J. Chandley, A. Clemow, D. Butterworth, R. Burrows. C. Carlin. Second row: W. Coffey, K.
