BEAMAN MEMORIAL PUBLIC LIBRARY WEST BOYLSTON, MASS. tAc MAJOR EDWARDS SENIOR ANNUAL West Boylston, Massachusetts 1954 1 . utu 7 7 7 The half-century existence of a secondary school in West Roylston has slowly come to an end, temporary though this end may be. With the decision to tuition our high school pu{)ils to Holden, the final chapter has been written of nearly fifty years of exist- ence of a secondary school program in our town. A few years after the turn of the century, in 1905, the first pupils attended a local high school which was established in the old Town Hall. For thirteen years, classes were held in this structure but in 1918, a destructive fire forced school officials to look else- where for school housing. Classes weie then held foi ' high school pupils on the thirfl floor of the Goodale Street School and this system continued until 1936. Graduation exercises for seniors at both buildings, the Town Hall and Goodale St. School, were held in the local Congregational Church. Hundreds of graduates left these stiuctures to enter the real path of life and many of our townspeople will remember with nostalgia the classes held there. But somehow, the old order changed and the growth of the town coujjled with the benevolence of a local citizen brought about the pi ' esent structure, the Major Edwai ' ds building. Major Victor E. Edwards was a i)hilanthropist in the true sense of the word. Born in 1863, this brilliant man eventually rose to the positions of vice-president, chief en- gineer, and director of the Morgan Construction Company in Woicester. He invented numerous man-saving and labor simplifying devices in the steel industry and achieved a great measure of fame by his invention of the flying shears. Upon his death in 1931, he left ten acres of land adjoining Goodale Park to the town of West Roylston and the sum of $1,()()(). to have the land cleared for jiark purposes. The present school was huilt on this site and named after Major Edwards, the donator of the land area. From an opening enrollment of eighty j)upils in 1936, the number of students has increased with its jiresent listing numbeiing more than two hundred. A school housing problem has forced the decision to tuition the pupils to the Wachusett Regional School and the utilizing of the Major Edwards’ building for the housing of lower grades. The past then is behind. An era has come to a close and with it a sincere desire by all for happiness in the new school situation. And yet, one cannot close this final chapter without paying tribute to all who aided in providing for us some of our best and most instructive years. Repi-esenting all the previous high school graduates of this town, we thank the townspeople from the bottom of our hearts! cCedCcati m In past years, it has been the policy to dedicate annuals to the member of the teaching staff who has proved to be a source of inspiration and w ho has been most helpful to mem- bers of the graduating class. But in this, the final year of existence of Major Edw ai ds as a secondary school, the dedication takes a different form. . s a tribute to all people w ho have been instrumental cogs through the years in providing us w ith an education so essen- tial today, w e humbly dedicate our annual to that group. Therefore — to our parents, to our administrators, and to our faculty members do we dedicate this annual. AVithout their assistance, their patience, and their understanding, we would not now be on the threshhold of a new life so well- equipped to face it. Ve thank them all sincerely. Eheir task is completed; may we fulfill our duties with as much success.

But cooperation, helpfulness, and sincerity are three adjectives that might well be applied to cur classmate. During her four years here, she has achieved a wide popularity by demonstrating these character- istics. Best of luck in the career you choose!

ROBERT FANCY Peanur A hard worker and sincere friend to everyone, that’s “Peanut.” His light-hearted manner and argumentative way have endeared him to everyone. “Peanut” is right at home with a welding torch in his hand, or inside an engine, but is really tough to beat in the classroom. Woman hater, he? — only on the outside! With his academic and mechanical ability and winning ways, he certainly will go far. Sophomore Hop 2; Junior Plag 3; Welcome Widget Dance Committee ; Yearbook 4- KAY FAWCETT Kay’s jubilant nature has made her well-liked by everyone.

CAROL FEDERICI Carol — a well mannered, good natured lassie is one of the most ambi- tious girls in the class. Her constant cheerfulness and abounding sense of humor have made us all happier through our association with her. Carol’s continual participation in both class and school activities has made her one of the most popular members of the class of ’54. We all wish Carol the best of luck although we’re sure she won’t need it. Basketball 2, -J, 4; Softball 3; Newsyayer 4; Junior Play 3; Junior Prom 3; Chorus 4; D.A.R.

Although most remember him as the irate professor in the Junior Play, as well they should, his serious- ness and aggressiveness have controlled many a class meeting. Lou’s persuasiveness, cheei-fulness, and athletic ability will be remembered by everyone. And of course we all know that his acting ability will bring him straight to the top.

Dave is one of those sure all-around fellows who is at home anywhere in the classroom, on the field, or — yes — under a car! Dave’s sparkling personality makes everyone his friend, but his athletic ability makes him well respected by his oj)ponents, who are often misled by his friendly mannei-. We’re sure Dave won’t need a fourleaf clover, as he is bound to be a hit, with his drive, friendly manner, wit, and personality.

Her friendly manner and helpful hand are always appre- ciated. Her invaluable experience as class treasurer should certainly make her wary of any pitfalls in the nursing field. So here’s to you and your nursing career from the class of ’54. Chorus 1; Junior Prom 3; Junior Play 3; Treasurer A- PATRICIA KING Pat That tall, dignified i-ed-head you see standing over there is none other than Patty King. We don’t think the supposed characteristics of red- heads quite hold true in her case, as she is down-to-earth and not too easily excitable. Pat plans to enter airline school, and with her ])er- sonaiity, drive, and ability to help others, we know she’ll be a huge success. Best of luck, Pat, from the class of ’. 4. tiatikethall 1, 2, 3; Class Secretarij 2; Junior Plait ■?; Yenrhook RICHARD LESPERANCE ' Dick ' That thoughtful-looking boy comfortably lounging at the back of the room is Dick. Don’t let his placid expression fool you! Beneath that serene attitude there’s a very active and witty mind. You would find that he has many diversified interestes in and out of school. Dickie, the class of ’.54 wishes you the best of everything in the future. Goo i Luck ! naskethall 2; Chorus 2, 3; Junior Prom 3; Junior Play 3; Yearbook ' f V DAMD LUDDEN ‘ Dave’’ Although Dave came to us this year from Classical High, he has already made a place for himself in the class. This dashing young- man never fails to be found in the midst of a group of gals. Seriously, Dave has gained the respect of everyone as being one of the most dependable class workers. We’re certainly glad you came to M.E.H.S., Dave! No doubt the future is bound to be a successful one. Basketball 4; Baseball 4; Dance Decoration Committee ; Yearbook 4- KENT LINDBERG ‘‘Swede’’ No one can look as natural or more relaxed then Kent when he maneu- vers a ball. The dexterity and ease he uses on the basketball floor have gained him the admiration of everyone. Hard work and fair play are the rules by which “Swede ' ’ lives, so there is no doubt in our minds that a bright future awaits you, Kent.

CYNTHIA MONROE Cyn Attractive, friendly, and witty are only a few of Cyn’s characteristics. Her seemingly endless supi)ly of energy must be the cause of her two favorite pastimes — dancing and playing basketball. With her pleasing jiersonality and the mischievous twinkle ever-present in her eves, she can’t help but go far. Rest of luck from the class of ’.‘ 4, Cyn.

JANE NAPONEN Jane, the soft-spoken, attractive blonde of the class has seldom lifted her voice above its usual jjleasant tone. During the past two years she has been with us, Jane has gained the friendship of many with hei ' delightful smile and good nature. The nursing profession certainly needs more girls who jjossess the distinctive qualities this alert girl holds. May the future hold the best of everything for you, Janie. Junior Play .1 ; Junior Prom ■ ; Freshmen Initiation Committee 4; Yearbook 4. JANET SKANTZ “ ««” One of the most active members of the class, Janet, has always man- aged to stay on the Honor Roll. She has never failed to support class functions with her keen artistic ability and sensible ideas. Keep up the good work in the nursing profession, Jan, and we’re sure your patients will love you just as we do. Good luck!

Without his witty remarks and spontaneous laughter, classes would be mighty dull!! Bee Bee is always willing to give a helping hand when needed and his ability as captain of the basketball team has never been questioned. We all wish you the very best in the futme. Bee Bee. Good Luck. Basikethall 1, 2, 4; Junior Prom .1 ; Student Couneil 4; Yearbook 4. LUCY TAMBOLLEO Lu Mischievous dark eyes and a flirtatious smile are Lu’s best-loved assets. She seldom, if ever, raises her voice in competition with her class- mates; yet her cheery disposition combined with her dancing ability give her a well-rounded personality. With hei- enthusiasm for work, we are sure success awaits hei- in the commercial field.

On the third day of May, One thousand and Nine hundred and P’ifty Four we attest this to be our last Will and Testament of the Class of J.A.NET SK.ANTZ and LUCY TAMBOLLEO CAnutcti: One inig ' ht say that we entei’ed our liigli school term like lambs . . . ami we are departing- like lions! Our freshman year was uneventful since no social activities were held. We did cai our year with a wonderful class trij) to Whalom Park, however. Mrs. Hamilton was our class advisor and for class officeis, we were led by Donald Bacon, president; Kent Lindberg, vice-])resident ; Betty Esoian, secretary; David Gonyer, treasurer. A welcome addition to the class this year was Cynthia Monioe and several new teachers arrived on the scene including- Miss Dand and Mr. Lei)ore. The initial stej) being- comjjleted, we entered our sophomore year with less trejjida- tion and treated Edwards’ sacred halls less sacredly! Newcomer Miss Chailes was our class s})onsor and aided us in preparing- for the Sophomore Hoj), an artistic and financial success. Likeable Gail Wheeler joined our ranks and proved to be a tremendous asset. We regretted the loss of Bob Leonard who left foi- Worcester .Academy. Again we went to Whalom Park for a class trip after the success of the previous year. Mr. Kelly left our midst at the end of this year. Class officers were Kent Lindberg, president; Gail Wheeler, vice-i)resident ; David Gonyer, treasurer; Patricia King, secretary. We entered our third year with Mr. McNaney as class advisor and immediately began preparing for the Junior Play, 7’ (Ci (Uive Him .1 Co-ed. Mr. Thomas ably directed the production. Jim Pe])in, a class newcomer, and David Gonyer shared the male leads while Gail Wheeler and Cynthia were the centeis of the female S])otlite. “The Junior Jump” was our first dance of the year but our big production was the Junior Prom staged successfully at the Wachusett Country Club. A heart-warming- gesture was a farewell party to Mr. McNaney held at Bullock Lodge. Mr. McNaney left to enter the Leominster school system. The class trip was an exciting- tiek to Hampton Beach. Leaders of the class this year were Kent Lindberg, i)iesident; David Gonyei-, vice-i)resident ; Gail Wheeler, tieasurer; Betty Esoian, secretary. I i Ami our final year was here at last! We were to be the ultimate class at Edwards’ since the secondary school pupils are to be tuitioned to Holden in 1954. Mr. Lepore assumed his duties as Senior Class Sponsor and we immediately set the social wheel in motion by sponsoring ' a “Welcome Widget Dance.” In conjunction with freshman initia- tion, a “Mystery Dance” was then held followed by a Chiistmas dance. The biggest financial success of the year was our broom sale whicb netted a great deal of money for the class and was a si)lendid example of class co-operation. Work was begun on the yearbook and in January the annual Varsity-Faculty basketball game was held. And then all too soon we had come to the end of our high school days . . . bacculaureate . . . finally . . . graduation! Our final class officers were Louis Geneva, inesident; Donald Racon, vice-president; Lillian Kimpton, treasurer; Betty Esoian, secretary. ccCuA ct f I i I i ' La tl 4tc — jU(€C The locale is a southern sea isle with the gontle trade winds blowing ' soft under- tones throus -h the trees. Chiis Meola and Jane Xa])onen are lollinf - around on the beach at the edge of the jungde, continuing their role of beachcombers. Suddenly and without i)rovocation, the strains of enchanting island music wafting its way over the serene Jungle is heard. And emerging from the trees hai pily chattering away are two young ladies escorted by dancing natives. The ladies are Priscilla Jewett and (lail Wheeler— Priscilla now a hai)i)ily married woman and Gail, a missionary worker on the island for the jiast few years. They are visiting the beach for the twentieth annual reunion of the Major Edwards class of ’54. -And careening along the beach coming to a screeching halt in her gieen Jaguar is Cynthia Monroe. Cyn has been traveling on the continent and tearfully informs the assemblage that she must sell this green vehicle since it clashes so with her pink Mercedes. Louis Geneva, complete with leopard trunks, ste])s on to the beach with his famous South Sea Six.” Featured with the band is Richard Lesperance, the baritone rage. As an added feature, showman Lou has engaged a ti ' OU])e of island dancers led by Carole Federici, the toast of the islands. After the assemblage has renewed accpiaintances, the loud roar of a motorboat is heard coming near shore. David Gonyer jauntily steps out. Dave has become a woiid famous explorer. Traveling along as mechanics are the builders of last year’s Indian- apolis winner, Robeit Fancy and Duncan Rice. Native girls lush uj) to greet this intrepid trio with hugs and kisses but shy David bashfully turns away from their caresses. However, Fancy and Rice readily accede to these advances and when last seen were busily engaged in dis])roving their heralded dislike of women to the islanders. -A.nd yet another member is aboard the boat. Alvin Raiakian triumj)hantly comes from the hold leading a string of livestock. We eat tonight! Food lias been announced when suddenly all look skyward. Three tiny specks slowly float into view becoming- larger and larger as earth looms near. And now it is seen that the paiachutists ai-e women! Xo it can’t be! Rut yes, gently floating to earth are Betty Esoian, Gloria Zuranski, and Lillian Kimjiton. Betty has become a trial driver for green Dodges and Gloria has invented a machine to completely replace the secretary. Lillian, the third chutist, is now a iihysical therapist of world repute. Chef for this occasion is Monsieur llavid Ludden, the famous French cook. Ilis recent concoctions have included a substitute for pizza jiie which he calls ‘eet’s a surprise.” Marion Hoyle, Kay Fawcett, and Patricia King, still the best of friends, come traipsing through the jungle jiath to join the gathering. Marion has gained fame as a T.V. comedienne while Kay, from a humble beginning as a file clerk in the New York State Rank, has risen to the jiosition of i)ersonnel director. Pat has become an airline hostess. Amidst the hubub is heard the noise of a jet ])lane zooming overhead and dipping- in salute. The people on the beach know it is Donald Bacon. Don could not make a personal visit since he is on another im])ortant mission as special courier to th.e Presi- dent. Another member of the class connected with the government could not make the reunion. He is Bill Soliti-o, now in Russia and charged with the mission of wii)ing out Malenkov. Kent Lindberg races to the beach still in baseball uniform and is greeted with loud applause for his big role in last October’s World Series. Uj) on a tree platform, Teresa Hartwell continues her sketching of the serene waters. The final two classmates on the scene are Lucy Tambolleo and Janet Skantz. Janet, for a long time an R.N., is training Lucy for a fall swim of Massachusetts Bay. Lucy is the Florence Chadwick of this eia. And now the contingent is complete. Mr. Lejjore ari-ives on the scene and looking- over the members of the class of’.54 wonders why he has remained teaching all these years !

Despite a rather dismal basketball season suffered by the Edward’s basketballers the past yeai ' , the season was not without its high i)oints. The underdog in many games, the Blue and White battled courageously against overwhelming odds and carried several top league teams light down to the wire before succumbing in close contests. The Leicester game displayed the fighting hearts of the Edwardites when they carried the game to an exciting conclusion before dropping a heartbreaking oS-or) contest. It was evident during the year that the Major Edwards ipiintet was liandicappt ' d by the double session program which forced several i)i ' ospective j)layers to seek employ- ment afternoons and deprived the team of their services on many occasions. However, the season again depicted the staunch determination of the hardwood boys and can be accounted a success despite an unimpressive won-lost record. Senior Bill Solitro led the home forces in the majority of the games but received able support from the othei ' squad members. Dave Ludden, a mid-season addition, sparked the team in several contests. The highlight of the sports year was not a sports contest, but a fitting testimonial tendered to Coach Jim Jeffrey in April. Deserving accolades were heaped on Mr. Jeffrey and the tributes proved the esteem in which Coach Jeffrey is held. Coach, friend, advisor — he was all of these — and the Edwards’ alumni and townspeople are sincerely grateful. Coach Ed Allen’s jayvee team also played splendid ball during the jiast season and Mr. Allen is to be commended for his excellent work in preparing the s(iuad.

Girls Basketball, the preferred sport for our young ladies at Edwaids, again enjoyed a success- ful season. While not ])iesenting an overwhelming record, yet the quintet achieved three victoiies and were never completely outplayed. Basketball practice started in November and three weekly sessions were held under the excel- lent sujiervision of Miss Doiothy Gilmore and Ann Jackola. At the close of the season, the girls went to Boston to see the Celtics versus the Philadelphia Warriors at Boston Garden. All enjoyed the game tremendously. Senior members of the girl’s team included Caj)- tain Priscilla Jewett and Carol Federici. The scores and op])onents follow: Dec. 11 Holden 40 — 13 Lost Dec.
