GREGORY J. WRINN MR. JOHN J. HURLEY “And it shall be done . . .” Thus, the final chapter comes to.a memorable close, and with it ex- citement of the football games, “‘proms,” and banquets—which are so clear in our minds—dims gradually, only to become cherished memories in the future. Perhaps the most cherished memories are the teachers who, through their guidance, patience, and understanding, contribute much to our way of life. Through his tireless efforts in trying to form a properly civic-minded youth, and to prepare him for his way in life, Mr. John J. Hurley, in the eyes of the class, is certainly deserving of this honor which we bestow upon him. His ever-present willingness to aid a student in difficulty, his constant search of sufficient data for the students wishing to attend college, and his aid in preparing our year- book are but a few of the many favors this wonderful man has done for the future citizens of Ludlow. Mr. Gregory J. Wrinn, a music teacher in the Ludlow High School for the past two years, has certainly won his way into our hearts. Many long hours of tedious rehearsals are necessary for the production of successful musical events, and Mr. Wrinn has relinquished much of his time to help us during the past two years. The school surely owes much to this man who has brought music, in its full triumph, back to Ludlow. Therefore, on behalf of the graduating class, to these two devoted men, Mr. John J. Hurley and Mr. Gregory J. Wrinn, we dedicate this 1959 edition of THE LUDLOW LION. FOREWORD In a year when so many people are urging increased educa- tion for leadership in international military might, we—the editors of this yearbook—have taken as our theme Peace— not a submissive, passive, or grovelling peace, nor a dishonor- able peace—but a peace achieved through dignified education. We believe firmly that this record of our activities as citizens of a school community is a miniature version of what education can achieve on a world-wide scale. Having learned to respect and to exemplify in our little school world the basic principles of democracy and of the fundamental precepts of the dignity and worth of the individual, we submit this 1959 Ludlow Lion as a tangible record of this basic tenet of educa- tion in a democracy: Peace is possible when everyone honors, respects, wants, and especially, works for it! lt Asean ney Te 4 (ETT.

A MESSAGE To the Class of 1959: Yours is the first class to have received a high school education entirely under a half-session school day. That circumstances have necessitated this curtailed day, this committee—and previous ones—has recognized and de- plored. However, we feel certain that the more serious members of your group—and that includes the great majority of you—have not had a curtailed education; your records show that you have attained the goals set for you by your teachers. Now, it is up to each one of you to see that he sustains this degree of effort in his post-secondary- school ventures—be he in business, in one of the military services, in a vocational training school, or in college. It is easy to succeed when success is assured; it is commendable to succeed when success is fraught with ob- stacles. The fact that you have managed to meet scholastic requirements under difficult conditions and that you have continued a full-time extracurricular program under those same difficulties will stand you i n good stead. You take with you asa class our congratulations for the dignified and orderly achievement of many goals— scholastic and extracurricular. May you as individuals persevere with the same tenacity in the pursuit of your various hopes and aspirations! Edward J. King, Chairman ; Herbert L. McChesney Edward F. Burgess June 10, 1959 SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS Left: Gordon O. Merkel ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTRATORS Left to right: Gratten H. Rooney and Edward W. Schmidt, Administrative Assistants; George E. Russell, Principal. TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1959 The completion of your “Yearbook” serves as a fitting memorial to the events and activities associated with your high school days. The many items which comprise the book will, in later years, serve to bring back pleasant memories of your days at Ludlow High School. The pictures of the members of your class, the class will and ballots, all these serve to bring together the Class of 1959, I know that both now and in future years you will receive much enjoyment from this most rewarding endeavor. Your reminiscing in the years to come will be more vivid because of the “Yearbook.” I join with you in appreciation to those who have made the book possible and realize fully the amount of time and effort that the final product has entailed. My congratulations to your success in the creation of the yearbook of the Class of 1959. George E.

TALBOT PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1959 I should like to express most sincere thanks and deepest appreciation to you, the members of the Class of 1959, for having given me the opportunity to lead you through our final and most important school year. Without your cooperation and unity, we should not have attained the success we did achieve. I should especially like to thank those who served under me this year—class officers, homeroom representatives, the members and chairmen of our various class committees. I wish to pay tribute to our class officers of previous years; their conscientious efforts paved the way and made easier the tasks of our senior year. Not only did we as a class work well together, but we enjoyed—-as have many classes before us—the aid and co- operation of several teachers who guided us in the production of our Senior Show and of The Ludlow Lion. It is also fitting that we include in our thanks an ex officio member of the faculty—Miss Mary Szczygiel, Mr. Russell’s devoted secretary. We are grateful for her patient indulgence of our many requests. No more long-suffering member of the school personnel exists! I wish every member of this class the best of luck in the years to come; I am proud, honored, and grateful to have served as your senior president. I anticipate seeing all of you at our first class reunion in 1964 and at every subsequent reunion! Sincerely, William J.

FAVORITE EXPRESSION: “Don’t panic!” ACTIVITIES: None PAX VOBISCUM We, the Class of 1959, must say two entirely different things at once—that is, we must say both “Hail” and “Farewell” to two people who have so long and so well served the youth of Ludlow. To Albert Bassette, devoted custodian and head of maintenance for thirty-four years, we extend our gratitude for devoted work far beyond the requirements of his job. Every extracurricular activity held within our high school was a major event to “Bert” as well as to the class sponsoring it. If our class dinners, dances, “proms,” concerts, and senior shows have been successful, we can thank “Bert” for his sincere interest in us. Like Mr. Chips, “Bert” has no children of his own, but thousands of children—every pupil in the Ludlow schools under his custodial eye has been his child. For his fatherly interest in us, then, we hail Mr. Bassette, and in farewell, we wish him many years of happy, contented retirement. Mrs. Irene C. Hennessey , for thirty-five years the teaching and supervising principal of the Primary School, we recog- nize as a sincere, thorough, and devoted teacher. In September, we once approached her class with misgivings; she was rumored to be an exacting teacher! In June of that school year, we left her class with reluctance. Even we graduates of her third grade acknowledged her a “good but a strict teacher.” Now, as graduates of the Ludlow High School, we ap- preciate her efforts even more. So, we salute Mrs. Irene C. Hennessay—a dedicated, a meticulous, an impartial teacher, and always a gracious lady! a | J, re, 48 PARABLES PEACE of A REIGN OF PEACE IS PROMISED Peace is a friendly condition, while war is a relationship of public armed hostility. Until recent years, peace was considered just an interval between wars. It was a negative rather than a positive condition. We, known as the class of °59 for the past four years, have united our efforts as a class to preserve ever- lasting peace. We have attempted to mold the class and our activities into a symbol of peace. Our first step toward our major goal was to elect the Security Council, which was to guide us through our first crucial year. Head of the Security Council was the Secretary General, Elaine Chomyn, with a worthy assistant, Patricia Richardson. Head of the Secretariate Division and keeper of the records was Alice Gagne, while the International Banker was Joan Morton. Members of the General Assembly were Sandra Axiotis, Sally Drost, Dorothy Malek, and Barbara Watson. However, peace is not only a continuous strain of work; there are many moments of pleasure. The General Assembly attempted to draw the citizens together by holding our first major activity—the class banquet. The year was brought to a close by a class picnic at Forest Park. Our second step was to make our sophomore year even more successful than our freshman year. This goal was achieved through the united efforts of the newly elected officers: Secretary General, Alice Gagne; Assistant Secretary General, Robert Podoski; Secretariate, Jeanne SanSoucie; and International Banker, John Humber. Members of the General Assembly were Carolyn Amos, Lorraine Fontaine, Constance Po- doski, and Barbara Watson. Under their leadership a successful dance was held, and the year was con- cluded by our never-to-be forgatten sophomore picnic held also at Forest Park. Our third and second most significant step was the activities of our junior year under the direction of Secretary General, John Humber; Assistant Secretary General, William Nelson; Secretariate, Alice Gagne; International Banker, Paul Brodeur; and these members of the General Assembly—Elaine Chomyn, Mary Ellen Kronick, Dorothy Malek, and Barbara Watson. This was the year when we were given the opportunity to lay before other citizens the results of our collective efforts towards peace and unity. Our first responsi- bility was the Junior Dance; then, this wonderful year was concluded with the Junior Promenade, Sayonara, held in honor of the graduating seniors. At last dawned our final and most precious year—our Senior year. In order to make this year our best, we elected eight capable people to direct our activities: Secretary General, William Nelson; Assistant Sec- retary General, David Dzuira; Secretariate, Jeanne SanSoucie; International Banker, Constance Podoski; and these members of the General Assembly, Dolores Dec, Alice Gagne, Barbara Mishol, and Lorraine Talbot. We were then drawn into the excitement of senior activities. Our first serious step was the produc- tion of The Ludlow Lion. We relived the musical past in our momentous Senior Show, the theme of which was “Fifty Years of Music in Review.” Now in the last week of school we attended the 1959 Junior Promenade and had our Senior Class Banquet; we also planted our class ivy and hope that as it branches and grows abundantly across these hallowed halls of the Ludlow High School, so may the Class of 1959 grow in successful peace. The time has come when we depart from the halls of Ludlow High School, but our cherished memories will always remain with us. So, we terminate our class history with this thought and hope: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they are the children of God.” 50 CLASS POEM A fortress of strength before us stands— A rock of knowledge our guide— Behind us now, those Ivy Walls— And now we take on life’s stride. It’s over now, these days of joy, But all good things must end— Now we'll plan to conquer the future— And take this road that bends. Just to recall the laughter once here, Just to have an old friend or two Seems a sorrow too great to bear, But is now a new burden for you. Like me, tho’, you’ll face it squarely ; You'll go on and surely strong— You'll see that you’ve learned enough To keep you from going wrong! How can I write of all our fun— These years of youthful bliss? How can I preserve these times In a poem such as this? We'll all remember this school— These teachers who’ve been just great, Shaping our teasing characters true— Despite our constant debate! No truer words could ever be said; No book could ever say Just what these twelve years mean— The memory they hold of today. Tomorrow comes on so very fast; Things look bright for all— Hesitating, we wonder— Will one of us stumble or fall? Here is where we ask the Lord, Who’s been with us all the time, “Please Lord, help us all To live a life sublime.” 5| AND WHAT IS WRITTEN SHALL BE EXECUTED We, the class of 1959, being of tenacious bodies and tranquil minds, do hereby bequeath the following: Collectively, to the FACULTY, a handkerchief to wipe away the tears which are sure to be shed upon our departure. May your sorrows be comforted and your patience restored; To the JUNIORS, the remains of our 1959 Chevrolet and best of luck in obtaining a Senior Show. May you live through Driver Education to participate in it; To the SOPHOMORES, our “beloved” faculty and administration and their unpredictable assignments. May you absorb knowledge and ward off insanity ; To the FRESHMEN, three more years of eating those “wonderful” school lunches. May your druggist never run out of Alka-Seltzer.

ANGEL SIMAO, ALICE GAGNE, JEANNE SANSOUCIE, and DOLORES DEC, recently elected members of the school committee, have banned true and false questions from problems exams. ELEANOR PETERSON, “pro” at the Ludlow Country Club, recently shot a hole in none, a feat which helped her obtain a 59 for eighteen holes. Her caddy is RUTH WALLACE. ELEANOR has a difficult time explaining to her pupil JOAN MORTON that in shooting a birdie, she won't be hunted down by the Bird Watchers’ Society! JOAN NOWAK, CHARLOTTE WRONA, SANDRA AXIOTIS, and PAT SAWICKY, who run a secretarial school, have started a course on “How to Be the Boss’s Favorite Secretary.” CHARLES WICKAR, the famous business tycoon, has volunteered his services as the typical boss. RITA KULIG, DIANE LYON, ROSEMARIE MAR. TIN. EVELYN DVORCHAK, and JUDY BURROUGHS 56 are the first to sign up for the course MARY JANE SNIADOWSKI, a graduate of the school, has been selected by the businessmen of America as “The Secretary We'd Most Like to Have Sit on Our Laps.’ TWEEDY BERGERON is the owner of the “Have Truck, Will Gravel Construction Company” and has just dug a tunnel to China. This project was financed by RICHARD SZARLAN for the purpose of exporting kielbasa to the Chinese. PAUL DORE designed and ran the Super Scooper, while BOB MAREK disposed of the excess dirt by filling in the craters on the moon.

DON TATRO has just bought a con- trolling interest m Forbes and Wallace. ELAINE CHOMYN, eminent chemist, has received the Nobel Prize in Science for mixing red with blue and obtaining—of all things— purple!

However, the experiment got out of control; BILL has also become the first human satellite! CHRIS LIMA, hearing of the results of the experiment, has put in his application to replace JACIOW. He hopes the experiment will get out of control again, so that perchance he will be stranded on Venus with all those beautiful women. Because of his efforts in world peace, WILLIAM NEL- SON has been appointed Secretary General of the United Nations. Working along with NELSON at the U.N. as ROBERT MARKIEWICZ, IRENE interpreters are MAZIARZ, ANTONIO CONDE, LOUIS GRAVELINE, MARY LOPATA, and JENNIE WISNIOWSKI.

JUDY DUMAS, whose smash hit record of “They Call Him Snowshoes, I Call Him Billy’— composed by CHET LATA—has just passed the twenty million mark, is the starred vocalist. Her record did so well because of the efforts of her agent, DICKY TEBALDI, who pushed it in Alaska. Others billed at the Casino are “The Flippin’ Flappers,” a group consisting of DOT MALEK, GERRY DOMINICK, CAROL SMOLA, LORRAINE YARYMOWICZ, and DIANE ELLIS, and MARSHA “Miss 57 Improvisation” GILMAN, who is the mistress of the ivories. On the job at all times is JACKY GAMACHE, bouncer par excellence. PAUL BRODEUR and BOB PODOSKI are training seals for the VICTOR ZABEK and MACKEY Brothers’ Circus. In the side show we find ED BRUNELLE, who is astound- ing the world with his ability to shatter shot glasses with his deep bass voice. “The World’s Fastest Typist,” JEANNE ZEIPE MARTOWSKI, is featured in the show, but one problem arose—after she exceeded the 240-word-per-minute mark, no one could find a way to stop her until crafty GLORIA WAKEM pulled the plug of her electric typewriter from the outlet! PAULINE CYRANOWSKI became so enthused with the ice cream business that she has opened an international chain of snack bars.

MARILYN SUNTER has just been appointed teacher of English at Ludlow High, thus taking Miss Saulnier’s place, while LORRAINE FONTAINE has agreed to teach at the local kindergarten. Life with its many twists and turns will change in the course of twenty years just as we shall change. We shall also go our ways and meet many times along the road. With this in mind, we lay down our pens and rest our weary brains. Thus, we prophesy!
