U • Not To 3o Token ErcSm Ubrai , Vt.S ' TRESS MEMOfflAt USRAiilt ttjrshtliW, mm (■ ' ■ ■ •: I vl Foreword The school seal, which has appeared on the title page of each edi- tion of The Tide, exemplifies the purpose for which Marshfield High School was established: to mold the spirits, minds, and bodies of its students so they may assume their positions in society. This seal, designed by Chandler Sinnott, was adopted as the offi- cial school seal by the class of 1942 soon after the present high school was opened in 1940. The 1888, which appears at the bottom, signifies the year in which the first high school was established in Marshfield. In 1895 the high school grades were moved from the north end of tow n to the then — new Ventress Hall; this in turn was replaced, in 1923. by the first building known as Marshfield High School, the old South School. e have chosen as our theme the three words inscribed on the seal which represent the factors which enter into our lives in Marshfield High School — SPIRIT: the school spirit aroused and fostered through acti ities; MINI): the academic phase of high school life; BODY: our fellow students. Volume 1 Number U THE TIDE Yearbook Photography by Purdy PUBLISHED by CLASS ol ’SB Mr. P ' rank Hlackington, III Mr. Burton O. Cowgill Dedication W K, the Class of 1950, are jtroud to dedicate this issue of TMK TIDK to two members of the faculty whose simultaneous arrival at Marshfield High caused a great many changes. We wish to express our apjireciation to one for increasing our general interest in music and the other for his never-ending interest in us and our problems. W e thank vou, Mr. Cowgill. for your constant efforts to improve our hand and glee clubs. Through them, we have gained much enjoy- ment of and appreciation for music. To you, Mr. Mlackington. we extend our gratitude for the gui- dance you have given us. From your clases we have gained many things which w ill help us take our places in society. Therefore, we. the Class of 19.56, are both proud and honored to make this dedication to Mr. Hurton (). Cowgill and Mr. Frank H. Hlackington. 111. 4 One of the main purposes of Marshfield High School is to develop and mold the minds of its students. In doing so. it passes on certain factual information and social customs. More important than the facts it conve s to the students, though, are the habits of thinking it instills in them through the guidance and example of the faculty and administration. i I Contents .Administration Faculty National Honor Society Senior Honors I I Administration Superintendent of Schools KDVUN ALBKKT MARTINSON Tufts College, B.S. 1 ufts College, M.A. in Education Tufts, M.A. in Education HAROLD SeOTT, B.A., M.A. Amherst; Columbia Mathematics Student Council Advisor Freshmen Advisor Mr. Chips . . . great Scotl . facetious financier for P.T.A. . . interior decorator?. . counsels all, students and freshmen , two redheaded sons .

National Honor Society j Last year w hen Marshfield High School instituted a chapter of the National Honor Society, six juniors were inducted. On their return to school this fall, it was their duty to carry on the functions of the Society. The National Honor Society was founded by the So- ciety of Secondary School Principals to further character, scholarshif), leadership, and service, the criteria for niem- hershi[) in the Society. Isl row: Anna Hubbard; Rachel Gallant, vice-president; Robert Jones, president; Priscilla Price, secretary; Steven .Atwater. 2nd row: irginia Gratto, Carol Seaberp, Miss McBrien, Carol Jackson, Laureen Sullivan. James Murphy, Steve .Atwater, Robert Jones. Anna Hubbard, and Rachel Gallant, under the direction of M iss McBrien, an active member of the National Honor Society, planned and sponsored a reception in the form of a record hop for the new students and faculty. On November?, 19.S5, these members inducted fneof their classmates into the Honor Society at the annual formal initiation. These were Virginia Gratto, Carol Jackson, F’riscilla Price. Carol Seaberg. and Laureen Sul- livan. Pamela Sherman was voted into membership in the fall to be initiated in the sjtring. ■At the first meeting of all senior members the officers were elected. Robert Jones was chosen president; Rachel Gallant, vice-president; and Priscilla Price, secretary . Right away the Honor Society began to compile a handbook for the use of high school students in the fall. This handbook will be a great boon to the new students and faculty.

Joan Long Secretary Miss Jean Miller Advisor Rachel Gallan ' Historian Stephen Atwater Treasurer I Marshall Delano President Robert Jones Vice-President i J n:o:Vfiwnr Like any other social institution, a school is only as successful as the people affiliated with it. Marshfield High is a composite of its student body, faculty, and the adminis- tration. No matter how efficient the adminis- tration, how effective the faculty, or how enthusiastic the students, the school cannot accomplish its aims unless these three fac- tors function well together. A true picture of the body of Marshfield High School must include all three.

To Mr. Cowgill we leave an appointment at the barber shop to have a crew cut. Steve . twater leaves his dislike for girls to Doug icher. Maybe that will keep the girls away, Doug.

Executed at Marshfield, Massachusetts, February 8, 1956. 29 PRISCILLA PRICE JAMES MURPHY Class History by (killant Having cotuiuerfd junior high school, fifty froshincn. eager to hegin the new school year, entered rooms d and 1 1 and found themsehes at the merev of Mr. Scott and Mr. Holden. Early in the year we realized our need to elect class officers. Our |)resident was Kohert Downs; vice- president. Steve Atwater; secretary. Anne Huh- hard; and treasurer Chandler Cleveland. Priscilla Price anti Jimmy Murphy filled the positions of historian and Student Council representative. In- an attempt to increase the size of our treas- ury, we undertook the task of selling cokes at the football games. hy, we even gave free cokes to the cheerleatlers — and on very special occasions to the players! With Novemher came our first class function, a record hop, hut in spite of the large income from these functions Mr. Scott was after us to pay our dues. . t one point the ulti- matum was issued — those who had not paid their dues must he the last ones to lunch every day! •As our freshman year was drawing to a close, we decided to celebrate — a picnic. committee was chosen to select the spot, and for weeks they were busy making jireparations. However, when the day approached there was a slight change in plans. No transportation — no picnic! ! Being a sports-minded class, mam of our class- mates joined the hockey, football, and basketball sijuads. How proud we were when Steve accom- panied the basketball team into the Boston Gar- dens to win the State Champiojiship in Class C. In September, after a seemingly short sutnmer, the Class of .06 moved down the hall to Miss Kllard s and Mr. Heed ' s homerooms. Our sophomore year officially started when we met in ' Hoorn l.f to elect officers for the coming year. ith the help of our new classmates. Joan Long. Pat Snow, and Plullis Opclski. we chose the following |)cople to guide our class activities. Nicky W herit was chosen to |)reside o er our meetings and Pamela Sherman was his under- stud . . nne, jimmy. (!han, and Priscilla were re-elected to their |)osts. Because the faculty thought our class meetings to he too unruly, they were few and far between. After two months time, we did manage to get together to make jjlans for our dance. “The Cand’ Carnival.” , s sophomores we seemed to get into ever thing — g(jod and had! Our classmates made an- other good showing in the sports world. W hile some of us were learning to conjugate French and Latin verbs, others were learning formulas and theorems in Geometry. .Surviving this, most of us became Juniors, only to undergo a more tedious year. .After the roll was called .Mr. Holden sent us on to L. S. History. Chemistry, and .Algebra 11. Our class meetings that year were far more successful, thanks to Steve Atwater ' s able leadership. Boh Jones acted as vice-president while Pam Sherman and Hachel Gallant took positions as treasurer and historian respectivelv. Anne and Jimmv still retained their posts as secre- tary and Student Council representative. .Marlene Pooley joined our class that year, but the class wasn t the same without the smiling face of Dave Barheau. who was hospitalized with polio. Dave kept smiling though and is back with us now. Our junior year was a very busy one. “The Soda Pop Hop. ' ’ held in Novemher. was a social and financial success and paved the wav for bigger and better things. Following the February vacation, we began to rehearse for our class play. If e Shook the Farnilv Tree. .Steve made a “dashing appearance as “short-pants Freddy” and .Malin was perfectiv ' ast in her role as six-year-old Paige Mason. One success followed another when we sponsored our Junior Prom a week later. Isn ' t it amazing what can he done in a week ' s time in the line of decorations. Cutting and pasting were undertaken hy all. and the results were breathtaking. In the Spring. Anna Huhhard and Boh Jones were chosen to attend (drls ' and Bovs ' States. Jimmv Murphv v as electctl president of the Stu- .10 dent Councils in this district and six members of our class were elected to the new chapter of the National Honor Society — Anna Hubbard, Anne Hubbard, Rachel Gallant, Steve Atwater, Robert Jones and James Murphy. Vi ben we had scarcely recovered from the play and the prom, it was time to plan for the Senior Reception. In the midst of a barrage of final exams, we realized that our carefree days were over, and when we returned to school last September most of us were ready to settle down to work. It wasn ' t long before we discovered several new faces among the familiar ones. Jana Fowler and Judi Moran had joined us, and we were all eager to see what was before us. How pleased we all were to have Dave back again — but the same tragedy repeated itself: Pam Sherman, an out- standing classmate, was stricken with polio and could not be with us. She has followed the ex- ample set by Dave, however, and is still smiling with every intention of graduating with us in June. Our Senior year seemed ever more busy than the jirevious one. At once we decided to put out a yearbook. While working on The Tide, however, we did not forget our Senior play. W ith a stage devoid of scenery, thirty would-be thespians, and a series of flashbacks, we presented The Remark- able Incident at Carson Cor ners, something new and entirely different to the audiences at Marsh- field High School. Great responsibilities fell upon the senior class officers — Marshall Delano, president; Bob Jones, vice-president; Joan Long, secretary; Steve At- water, treasurer; Jimmy Murphy, Student Goun- cil representative; and Rachel Gallant, historian. orking together with the other members of the class, they made arrangements for the most suc- cessful Senior Prom ever presented at M. H. S. I think we will always remember that large jolly snowman and the pine-scent that fdled the audi- torium on December 16 of last vear. The National Honor Society took a prominent place in school life, sponsoring a record hop in September. Not long after this, the senior mem- bers held an initiation of other members of the class — Laureen Sullivan, irginia Gratto, Carol Jackson, Carol Seaberg, Priscilla Price, and Pam- ela Sherman. Early in December, when the time came for the student body to elect their Good Government Day Representative, the seniors, with Mr. Black- ington’s help, conducted a three day campaign. They ran two very well-rounded candidates for this office — Bob Jones and Marshall Delano. W hen the results were made known. Bob was one of the happiest boys in school. Another senior who was likewise honored was Priscilla Price, our D. A. R. Good Citizen. As in previous years, we were well represented on the athletic squads. With our classmates lead- ing the hockey and football teams, we brought home two championships in one season. M ith these under our belts, we began looking forward to a similar basketball season. Our new guidance director, Mr. Grady, was busy administering tests and helping us with col- lege applications. At the same time, we were being snowed with conferences, interviews, and autobiographies. ■ s Graduation nears, we wish to express our sincere appreciation for all that Miss Miller has done for us. She has guided us most ably to our present goals. We only hope that the Class of ’56 leaves something of value behind them and that our experiences here will benefit us in the future. 31 Class Prophecy by l uiK ' la Sli(‘rman Marshall I)(‘lano F ' .dilor’s note: This mamisrripl was lak«“ii front Marlcm- Pooh ' v’s horm at the South I’olc.

Student Council James Murphy President Steven Atwater Vice-President Laureen Sullivan Secretary -Treasurer Mr. Scott Advisor The Student Council provides a link between the student body and the faculty. It tries to maintain bet- ter relationships between teachers and students by presenting student problems to the faculty and tries to alleviate faculty problems by creating better school spirit and loyalty. This year there are thirteen members on the Stu- dent Council with Mr. Scott as our advisor. There are eight homeroom representatives who confer and have one vote for each class. James Murphy is the senior; Mike Bissell and Maryann Sullivan, juniors; Diana Curren, Jane Stevens, and Linda Morrow, sopho- mores; Connie Ela and Janice Moran are the freshman representatives; Steve Atwater, and Barbara Ela repre- sent boys’ and girls’ sports. The student council encourages assemblies and puts on record hops. We nominated Bob Jones and Mar- shall Delano for Good Government Day. In a heated political campaign conducted throughout the school Bob emerged as the victor. This year the Student Council and the National Honor Society are going to publish a handbook telling about the school, its organizations and activities. This year at Steve’s suggestion we changed the rule for lettermen if he or she has been out for a sport tw o years. Bob Jones represents the National Honor Soci- ety; Laureen Sullivan, monitors; and Joan Hayes, point system. Ve attended the Southeastern Massachusetts Branch of Student Council convention at Cohasset. Harvard and Wellesley students told us what a good idea exchanging students is and some exchanged stu- dents described their experiences. Later we had a delicious dinner and then dancing. X’e have had an enjoyable time working together this year, especially at conventions. 34 B .aacL Junior Class Officers 1st row: Barbara Ela.

Class of 1957 •At eleven-fifteen on September 19 the starting gong rang. The race for the classmeeting on Room 7 began w hen Miss McBrien took the members of Room 9 for a walk down the corridor. Due to a large and well-behaved (?) class, we did no more than elect class officers that day. Kevin Murphy started the class rolling as president, while Barbara Ela was to take his place when he was infrecjuently absent! Then penman of the class, Linda Clapf), took over as secretary, and Carol Mackintire, as treasurer, certainly must have a charm for keeping the class treasury in balance. Janice Curren is our very able historian again, while Mary .Ann Sullivan and Mike Bis- sell jtresented our class opinions on many controversies to the Student ( ' .oiincil. The class of ’,S7 started chemistry w ith a hang, and history with many failed (piizzes. IX e wonder what chem- istry would he like without our newest additions, John Kinkead and Wayne Buxton?

The Juniors certainly held the spotlight in the operetta with Carol Stengel playing Rose, and Rodney Caron playing opposite her as Darrell. Playing supporting roles were Wayne Buxton, Patricia Fielding. Dale W hite, and Earle Roswell. Our first formal dance was the Junior Prom, held in the spring, which helped prepare us for the traditional Senior Reception. F ull of vim and vigor, Sheila Coughlin and Mary Ann Sullivan boosted the teams as cheerleaders. W hat would we do without John ( reed’s statistics as manager? .And where would the girls’ basketball team be without Janet Shaw and (!arol Stengel as managers?

Miss Ellard, our class advisor, was in Room 13; Mrs. Etelman was in Room 6; Mr. Reed, in the lab. Those poor teachers! They were slightly outnumbered — ninety of us and only three of them. Our class meetings were held in the separate home rooms as there were too manv of us to meet in any one room. Class officers were elected and Ross Ketchum took on the duties of the presidency, w hile Kit McNitt was vice-president. Eunice Costello was elected secretary; Kerry Theran, treasurer; Janet Hagar, historian. The Stud ent (Council now had a representative from each home room. They were Diana Curren, Linda Morrow, and Jane Stephens. This year we began French. After many persistent at- tempts by Miss McBrien and Mr. Head, we could say. Bonjour mademoiselle,” and Repetez, si vous plait.” Some of us who had taken Latin II were moaning and groaning over Caesar and subjunctives. Struggles with English and geometry also took many hours of prepara- tion. And don’t let anyone tell you shorthand is a cinch! .At least the foreign languages use an alphabet! W ish we could say the same for Mr. Gregg’s system. In October the class officers met with Miss Ellard and decided to raise our dues and sponsor a dance. Our dues became fifty cents a semester and that meant a w hole dollar by the end of the year! How the treasurer had to work to scrape up the money. We even needed a couple of assistant treasurers. We also decided to have a leap- year dance on March 23. At last the girls got a chance to ask their secret heroes. When June came, we were all ready for a vacation before starting our days as up|)er- classrnen. 1 I .37 1st row: Marsha Paulding, Rita Riley, Ann Linsky, Elayne La F ' ratta, Priscilla Lopes, Patricia Swcenemer, Judith Barbeau, Ann Marie Lennon, Lee Baldwin, Claire Michael, Elizabeth McDonald, Martha Hayes, Linda Taylor and June Stevens. 2nd row: Beverly Whitman, Susan C helan, Constance Ela, Marsha Thomas, Francis Hale, Karen Bullard, Elizabeth Hammett, Patricia Hunt, Janice Coughlan, Donna W inslow, Jean Flagg, Dorothy Fahnley, Earlene Rogerson, Penelope Blunt, Janice Moran, Mary Beth Murphy, Joan Murray, Terrell Smith, Shirley Norton and Hilda Simmons. 3rd row: .Mr. Scott, advisor; James Fielding, .Alan Mac Donald, James Me Clellan, .Andrew Girard, Edward Coughlin, Carl Neilson, John Reynolds, Her- bert Johnson, Robert Gonsalves, Richard Corrow, Josiah Strandberg, Jane Allen, Kenneth Johnson. 4lh row: Mary McGuire, W illiam Jordan, John Cheesman, Christopher O ' Brien, .Alan Fowler, William Fosdick, George Gove, Lloyd Salvetti, Law rence Wangle, John Hubbard, James Coggeshall, Paul Smith, Maureen Haviland, and Nancy Rand. r Freshman .As we moved up from Junior High, we were placed in two homerooms. Our lucky teachers were Mr. Scott and Mr. Head, who left in January. At our first noisy class meeting w ith the help of our advisor, Mr. Scott, we held nominations for class offi- cers. At the second meeting Claire Michael was elected president; .Alan Mac Donald, vice-president; .Alan Fowler, treasurer; Frances Hale, as secretary; and Lee Baldwin as historian. Several more meetings were held, but were not regular because of disorder. e continued the freshman tradition of selling coke at the football games. .Among our many [iroblems as freshmen were Latin, algebra, and the upper classmen. Latin and algebra were difficult because they were so new and so very different from anything we had ever studied before. .And just as we were getting a little proud about being tops in the junior high, suddenly we were faced with three upper classes. Our ego then dropped about 100 per cent. But to boost our morale, many freshmen made the hockey, football, and basketball squads. Connie Ela was a letter member of the hockey team, and Judy Barbeau and Larry Wangle were close to the top in basketball. The first marking term found Mary McGuire. Paul Smith, and June Stevens on the First Honor Roll with many others working hard to make it before tbe end of the year. e know that the coming years will add many more names from the class of ' 59 to the top of the Mar sh- field rosters, both academic and athletic.

There is some intangible feeling we call ' school S[)irit” which, woven together with these other factors, forms our impression of Marshfield High. This sjiirit is one of loyalty, friendship, and cooperation , that we develop through the contacts and ex- i [leriences of extra-curricular activities.

Senior Dramatics On the eve of December 9, 19.55, the senior class [ re- senled a triumph of dramatic accomplishment entitled The Remarkable Incident at Carson Corners. The entire play was in the form of a mock trial w ith flashback scenes in w hich the majority of the senior class participated. The students of Carson Corners High School were greatly disturbed by the untimely death of a classmate, Billy McGinnis (Buzzy Quinn). They were determined to uncover further evidence disproving the calm acceptance by the tow n of the incident as an accident. They chose the school janitor, Mr. Peter Kovalesky (Marshall Delano) as chief sus[ ect because of material evidence (Community Fund Cans) seemingly pointing to his guilt. l ith the intention of conducting the trial according to courtroom procedure as much as possible, the students chose a judge (Paul Harter), a defense counsel (Priscilla Price), a prosecuter (Jana Fowler), and a jury. The citizens of the tow n were invited to attend, ho can forget the haughty aristocratic snobs as [)or- trayed by the rights (Rachel (iallant and David Bar- beau), the grief-stricken parents of the dead boy (Carol Seaburg and Steven . twater), and the careless doctor (Vaughn Hall) and his loyal wife (Carol Jackson). There were also the druggist who knew better (Bob Jones), the over-worked (?) fire inspector (Boh Callahan), and the Forgetful” English teacher (Carol Hallowell), whose testimony saved Kovey”. . s the play progressed, the students unknowingly- showed their parents how each and every one contri- buted in some way to the tragic death of Bill Mcf innis.

Band And the band played on . . . and on . . . and on . . . Yes, every Tuesday and Friday morning, first period, about 40 students assembled to put in their toot” cents worth. We’ ve played almost everything form waltzes to bop. All kidding aside, we have real talent. Janice Curren was chosen out of 460 students to play in the All-State Band in Pittsfield. April 5,6, and 7. From our band, also, there were five chosen to play in the SEMSBA band: Janice Curren, clarinet; Diana Curren and Rose Ketch- urn, saxaphone; Earl Roswell, sousaphone; and Kenneth Shepherd, baritone. We are extremelv proud of all of them. Can anyone taking part ever forget the combined con- cert with Scituate; and the banquet? This affair was held on March 23rd in Scituate and March 31st in Marshfield. Remember the band-chorus concert in April? Then in May came the famed Music Festival held in Needham. Remember the bus ride? Did anyone save his lunch for noontime? 1 think not; we believe in breakfast first. All of these things made a very successful year for the M.H.S. band. With Mr. Cowgill ably directing the organi- zation, anything was apt to happen and very often did! Those leaving with tears in their eyes are Sue Gonsalves, clarinet; Marshall Delano, tympany; Rachel Gallant, Eileen Ford, and Jana Fowler, majorettes; and Carol Jackson, clarinet. We wish all the luck possible to the band for the coming years. 4,5 i CHORALEERS 1st row: Priscilla Bnant, Linda Morrow, Timothy Connor, Kerry Theran, Dale Miile, Billy Bachman, Carol Stengel, Diana Currcn. 2nd row: Nancy Brown, Janice Curren, Alan MacDonald, Rodney Caron, Marshall Delano, Robert Callahan, ’endy Damon, Helen Callahan, Mr. Cowgill, .Advisor. 3rd row: Judy Rogers, Rachel Gallant, Charlie Quinlan, Eiarle Roswell, Fredus Carpenter, Margaret Creed, Carol Hallowell.

Penn Operetta This year the members of the Special Glee Club, with the help of Diana Curren, presented a two-act o|)eretta. Rose of the Danube. The little kingdom of F,urolania, somewhere in Europe, is in the midst of its annual Rose Festival. The festivities are in full swing at the opening of the operetta despite the fact that the royal treasury is exhausted and Count Serguis van Popova (Robert Callahan) is plotting a revolution w ith the assistance of Demetrius Doodledorf (Tommy O ' Brienf and Tromhonius Tootletop (Earl Ros- well). The arrival of the noted camera man, Darrell Davis (Rodney (iaron), and the eminent director, Percival Mc- Pipp (.Man MacDonald), with his wife Priscilla (Peggy C.reed) and daughter f’amela (Patricia Fielding) causes a great stir among the populace. Even King Montmerency (Dale W hite). Queen Florin- da (Nancy Brown), and their children. Rose (Carol Sten- gel), Daisy (Linda Morrow), and Karl ( ayne Buxton) are excited by the presence of these well-known Holly- wood personalities. Mr. MePipp comes to the treasurer’s rescue by pay- ing S1,(X)0,000, to King Montmerenev for the use of his kingdom in the shooting of his latest spectacular. Meanwhile, Darrell and Karl overhear the conspira- tors’ plans for revolt and catch them in the act of sabo- tage. Tromhonius is sentenced by the King to marriage with Belladona (Sue Gonsalves) the elderly lady in wait- ing and Prime Minister (� alooski (Marshall Delano) is contented w ith the million dollar addition to the treasurv.

F ootball It was a bang-up season this year for Marshfield, end- ing with a six win-one loss triumph and the May-Shore League championship. Having only five returning lettermen, the task of build- ing an efficient team was presented to our coaches. Mr. Anderson and a new addition to Marshfields coaching staff, Mr. Tibbetts. hether we were to be successful was left entirely in the hands of the squad members w ho certainly did a great job. Although we were late getting under way, we progressed rapidly. The season started in rare fashion, with Holbrook and East Bridgewater falling in shutouts of 15-0 and 19-0 respectively. The next game. Silver Lake, was met with uncertainty because this team was a new entry on our schedule, outclassing us in student enrollment by ap- proximately 600 students. But Marshfield was up” for them, and Silver Lake suffered at 19-6 defeat. Next was Cohasset, an ever-improving team not to be passed over lightly. On the rain-soaked field at Cohasset. Marshfield slipped and skidded to a hard fought 12-0 victory. Ue suffered our first defeat when the powerful Bourne team arrived and rolled up a 26-7 win over Marshfield. .At U est Bridgewater was played the game for the May- Shore Crown a Marshfield win would give us the crown. At the end of the half the score showed Marshfield down, but the team responded to the half-time pep talk, and Marshfield came back to scoop up the title by heating est Bridgewater 18-13. The traditional Turkey Day game was played under excellent weather conditions. Marshfield was favored bv a squeaky six” points only to explode and topple Han- over, 33-21. Coach cleared his bench for this one and seemed very appreciative of the results. The trophies for outstanding back and lineman were received by Steve .Atwater and Marshall Delano, respec tively.

South Shore League Co-Champions The last basket swished and the shrill, jarring noise of the whistle shrieked loud enough to set your teeth on edge as we ended our first game of the season losing to the .Alumnae with the score of 50-.S6. This loss, however, did not dampen our sjtirits since we knew our opposition were some of the best players Marshfield has united. Even though the .Alumnae game was an unsuccessful attempt for us, we were a team determined to keep the previous victories in Marshfield w here they belong and [terbaps even bring back more. Our first matcb, with Hanover, was not a sna[) as we had anticipated it to be. At the end of the half we were onlv leading bv three points. In that locker room we faced tbe vivid truth that we weren ' t playing our best game and from that talk decided to begin to work. This we did and accomplished our goal, we won — .S4-.J6. Cohasset. our next league game, also seized the lead, but onlv for the first ipiarter. A e had topjied them when the final buzzer rang. Then came our most dreaded game — Scitiiate! .As we rode toward Scituatc that A ednesday afternoon, there must have been a great variety of thoughts stirring through everyone ' s head; most of all about the outcome of the rough game we were facing. This game proved the abilitv of our team in concentrating on working in unitv when the time to do so arrives. e victoriously returned to Marshfield that afternoon in high spirits and good humor with a score of 46 .36. Norwell and Duxbury were our next victims. AA e com- pleted these games with the scores 50-24 and 56-16 respectively. Then we traveled back to Scituate again for our return match, because both of our games vvere scheduled to be played on their huge, fascinating court. This game was held on a Friday night; their gym was packed with eager spectators yelling and cheering so loud that we thought the walls were about to cave in on us! e just weren ' t clicking this time and consequently this was the only league game we lost throughout the entire basketball season; the final score vvas 20-47. Then came Norwell again. They were ahead of us by one point in the first quarter, but we pulled way out ahead of them ending the game at 71-41. t i. , Duxhurv, Hanover and Cohasset were our final vic- tories with the score of 63-32, 56-40, ami 68-57 respec- tively. The first tw(j were very easily defeated. In the he- ginning of the 4th (quarter, Cohasset came up to tie the score 45 all, much to our surprise, . fter the shock of seeing the score tied, we canie out on top, 68-57. Finally, as a reward for our hard work during the sea- son and the entertaining games we })roduced, we were all treated to the annual Booster’s Cluh Bani]uet. Deli- cious roast heef anti all its supplements were good enough reasons for everyone to forget about their diets for the night — and that is just what we did! (rreen blazers were awarded to the juniors and seniors who hadn’t re- ceived thetn, Carol Stengel and .lanet Shaw. This did not end our season, however, we now were faced with the difficult task of playing the faculty for the benefit of the scholarshii) fund. ith the help of that (!rooked” referree who did not notice the many fouls made by the of)position, the faculty managed to tie the score with us — 21 all. Ne.xt year as Alumnae reminiscing will firing tnany hap[)y memories of Marshfield to our minds, many of these I’m sure, will he of its athletics. Everyone in the class of ’56 who has taken [ art in any phase of sports wishes Coach ' X illiams and her future f)layers (stars) the best of luck. W e are sure with these underclassmen, we will keep all of these victories in Marsh field.

South Shore Field Hockey Champions .Another year, another championship — can we help it!!! Yes, the girls field hockey team brought M.H.S. to vic- tory once again this year. After a late start because of poor weather we finally played Duxbury on their field and beat them, 3-0. Then as the season progressed we went on to defeat Cohasset and Norwell on their fields and Hanover and Scituate on our own field. .After our home games we celebrated by inviting the other team in for coke and cookies. After the season was completed and all games had been won, we were treated to the Boosters’ Club Banquet for participation in Field Hockey. The game most of us were looking forward to was our last league game — Scituate! Vi e knew from previous ex- periences that this team would present many obstacles to us. You can imagine how relieved we were when a goal was scored upon Scituate in the first half; then we went on to collect one more goal. But even though we won, this game spoiled-our chances of keeping our unscored-upon record throughout the season, for they scored their one goal in the first half — the only goal of the season marked against us. The managers, Margaret Creed and Virginia Gratto, w ho unwillingly received the traditional cold shower at the end of the season, did a fine job throughout the hockey year. The second team had a successful season also, winning all games and tieing one. In years to come we hope the second team and other members of the squad w ill con- i tinue to bring championships to Marshfield while main- j taining our reputation for good sportsmanship and team- work as taught by Mrs. illiams. Tbe goals that brought us to victory this season were made by Barbara Ela, (12); Constance Ela. (5); Diana Curren, (3); Carol Seaberg, (2); and .Marv . nn Sullivan, ( 1 ).

Cheerleading T-E-A-M — Yea Team!” Cheerleading in 1955 started with a bang as we hurried to get ready for the first foot- ball rally. We spent many hous on the freezing football field as well as the hot, stuffy basketball court. This year Mr. Blackington took over the coaching of the cheer- leaders. He made it possible for us to get megaphones, so we could be heard more clearly and look more like cheerleaders. A new policy was established this year, because many cheerleaders were members of the basketball squad. A second group was chosen to cheer during the basketball season. Altering uniforms, dreaming up new cheers, designing bulletin boards, and thinking of original ideas for rallies really kept us busy. Remember the hanging of the Han- over dummy and the burning of the M.H.S. sign before the Thanksgiving Day Game? As a result of their yelling and cheering us to victory, there were many cheerleaders with laryngitis after the games. All in all our 1955-56 season will not be soon forgotten, nor will the exciting Booster’s Club Banquets which we attended. 1st raw: Sheila Coughlin, Martha Hayes, Mr. Blackington, Carolyn Moulton, Linda Parker. 2nd row: Janet Hagar, Jane Cohee, Phyllis Opelski, Joan Long.

Basketball — 1956 Coach Anderson, who is serving his eighth year as head coach of the Hilltoppers, welcomed a very inexper- ienced sijuad, which included only seniors at the start of the 19.56 basketball season. The team opened the season with a 51 to 41 victory over the .Alumni, including the championship team of 195,3. The first [leriod showed a tight hallgarne; however in the second frame the high school moxed out to a tiine [loint lead by the score of 30 to 2 1. In the third period the graduates closed the lead to two points, hut in the final period the high school rebounded to win hv ten [loints. Our first league game we were out-classed on re- bounds by a tall Hanover team and finallv out-scored, 61 to 54. Vie felt confident when Cohasset came to town and trounced the Dorr men 85 to 60. The hoys tried their hardest in the next game onlv to he beaten hv Scituate, 77 to 73. In this contest we fell behind by eight points in the final period after playing a very close game all the way. Coach .Anderson then put the hoys into an all-court press only to lose in the final minute of play. The Hillto| pers came hack into the win column with a 81 to 62 victory over Norwell. in which our fast break was a decisive factor. A comeback marked the main fac- tor of our next encounter for we were trailing all the way at Duxhury. .Again Coach called on his big weapon, an all-court press, which proved very effective as we went on to win, 76 to 70. Our next contest took us to Scituate, where we met a team which appeared to reach its peak in that game and were infallible as they beat us. 82 to 61. Vie greeted a much-improved Norwell team whom we had defeated easilv in our first meeting, but we were lucky to edge out a 67 to 61 decision with Jim Murphy throwing two important baskets in the final minute to j assure our victory. Sharp shooting and good rebounding marked our sec- ' ond win ov er Duxburv bv the margin of 64 to 51. lA e j were out for revenge when Hanover came to town as it L was a game for second place in the South Shore League. ’ The game was in the hands of M.H.S. all the wav with j Hanover never hav ing the lead. Our league season ended ; with a 71 to 56 viclorv over Cohasset in which captain Steve .Atvsater led the scoring vvith 20 points. Both teams r 0 I had a better than average shooting percentage with the Hilltoppers hitting a little more consistently in the final frame. The true spirit of Marshfield was displayed when we entered the South Shore Basketball Tournament and met East Bridgewater in the quarter final round. In this game the Easties jumfied to an early lead which they never relinquished. In the final quarter East Bridge- water [)Ut their lead up to twenty points with only six minutes remaining, . gain Coach called on his hoys to press; with senior Bob Jones leading the defense and our spirits recharged, we closed the gap. Final score; 73 to 69, East Bridgewater. Marshfield tiaskethall may hope for a good season for we have many returning letterrnen.

Softball 1955 Our first game of the season was the one that separ- ated us from the South Shore League Championship, but led us on the path toward our three-way-tie shared with Pembroke and Kingston of the South Shore League. The game w ith Pembroke was a tight, hard-fought con- test but ended with the narrow score of 6-5, Pembroke. The Scituate game was the toughest of the season. The score was unsteadily shifting from one side to the other, but we finally won when in the last inning a fly ball was caught w ith the score 14-13 to finish the game in our fa- vor.. In the Kingston game we lacked confidence because they had had more practice than we, and were in the league lead, e knew, too, that losing this game meant being dro[ ped from the three-way-tie. e finally sur- prised ourselves, as well as Kingston, and won the game. 19-16. The enthusiastic members of the team included, Sandra Clark, Susan Drake, catchers; Judith Martinson, pitcher; Margaret Linskey, Linda Morrow, first base; Nancy Ela.

South Shore Champions I The baseball season this year proved to be one of the ; most interesting and unusual in several years. The South I Shore League Championship was won by Marshfield with ' a record of seven wins and no losses. This marked the first Championship for Mr. Reed since coming to Marshfield, i We had a club which had the desire to play as well as a desire to win. W ' e opened with a 6-2 triumph over I Cohasset, then went on with a five hitting display to de- I feat Hanover, 14 to 7. Our third game with our tradi- I tional rival Scituate saw a tense game played by both j sides finally taken by Marshfield 4-3. This marked the ' first time we defeated Scituate in several seasons. W e took our next four encounters without much diffi- culty defeating Norwell, 5-2, Kingston, 11-4; bounding Uuxbury, 22-7; and ending the season with a 14-3 triumph over Pembroke. In the Eastern Massachusetts baseball tournament we were defeated by Avon 5-3, in a game which saw Marsh- field fight back with three runs in the ninth inning. In 1956 Mr. Reed will be anticipating the return of his veterans with hope of gaining the South Shore Title. 1955 Record Marshfield 6 Cohasset 2 Marshfield 14 Hanover 7 Marshfield 4 Scituate 3 Marshfield 11 Kingston 4 Marshfield 5 Norwell 2 Marshfield 22 Duxbury 7 Marshfield 14 Pembroke 3 ' Marshfield 7 Kingston 5 Marshfield 3 Avon 5 ' non-league tournament 63 piir Hi .. duertiderd The townspeople and businesses which have been a part of our high school lives have had much influence on us.
