ACTIVITIES A | _ % k I Student Council and Congress President: Thomas Holden Vice-President: Paul Bean Secretary: Nancy Johnson Treasurer: Marilyn King The Student Council, composed of the of- ficers of the three upper classes, and two rep- resentatives from each class, and the Student Congress, consisting of one representative from each homeroom, have had a busy year. To raise funds, the council sold hockey pins at the beginning of the year, and later sponsored the movie, Sitting Pretty . The movie was shown after school, and featured some news shorts along with the main film. As in preceding years, the Council, aided by the Congress, and guided by Miss Hume and Mr. Dixon, sponsored the Winter Ball. This year the dance was held before Christ- mas, and was considered very successful. Tony Barrie ' s orchestra provided the music, while a group of boys and girls from high school furnished the entertainment. Four delegates were sent to Everett for the spring convention of the Eastern Massachusetts Division of Student Councils. Robert Mathews was nominated for vice-president. The Council has been working on a new Freshman Manual containing pictures and items of interest to replace the usual red one. Mom Society President: Rolf Barnes Vice-President: Barbara Merrifield Secretary: Judith Bowman Faculty Advisors: Miss Helen Kershaw, Miss Agnes Ring The Melrose High School Honor Society started the season in September with the elec- tion of officers, followed the next month by an impressive induction ceremony in the library, where the symbolic meaning of the gold M was explained to the new members. At this meeting a Program Committee was organized with Regina Gittes acting as Chairman. This group was responsible for the many fine pro- grams presented for the Honor Society this year. One of the highlights of the season which everyone enjoyed was a trip to Boston to see the film presentation of Edmond Rostand ' s im- mortal hero, Cyrano de Bergerac. The field trips and traditional picnic were scheduled for later on in the spring. In February, a second induction of new members was held, bringing the total enroll- ment of Honor Society to forty-one boys and girls who have had the greatest success in maintaining the high standards of the Society throughout the past year. Senior Speakers } bureau President: Harriet Clark Vice-President: Richard Divver Secretary: John Lilly Treasurer: Nancy Johnson Faculty Advisor: Mr. Stanewick The purpose of this club is for each mem- ber to gain poise and confidence in speaking before an audience. This year, Senior Speakers ' Bureau has had a new duty to perform. Due to the instal- lation of a public address system, there was a need for someone to read the daily notices. So, each day, for one week, one boy and one girl alternately announced the school news. These students found it necessary to speak slowly and enunciate clearly in order that their voices be audible in the various rooms of the school. All assembly programs during the year have been introduced by members. Each was required to prepare his own introduction. JmpriHt Editor-in-Chief: Bernard Carpenter Advisors: Miss Stahi, Mr. Battles Be sure to check the information in that copy. There ' s just one letter too much in this headline. Such is the conversation one might hear every other Wednesday and Thurs- day afternoon in 402, where four or five Im- print editors and reporters meet to make up each issue of the school paper. The Imprint is published bi-monthly by an all-student staff composed of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Editor-in-chief Bernard Carpenter has had the responsibility of seeing that the other ed- itors have their assignments ready, writing an editorial for each issue, and generally over- seeing everything. The gathering of feature, news and sports material has been the job of Beverly Dennison, Mary Hopkins, Russ Bur- gess, and Carol Hyndman. Jane Schueler, Frances Stuart, Janet Conn, Stanley Fester, ed- itors, and two senior reporters, Barbara Easton and Regina Gittes, all have aided in getting the paper ready. Of course, the paper could not be a success without the help and cooperation cf the Typists, or the Art and Business staffs. Throughout the year many of the editors and reporters have attended conferences spon- sored by the Boston Globe, where they have met other student editors and heard many famous guests. The Imprint ' s Campus Capers , featuring a fall sports theme, proved to be a great suc- cess. Henry Cooke, Boston disk jockey, fur- nished the music and talented students fur- nished the entertainment. Mosque and Wig President: Barbara Restall Vice-President: Richard Divver Secretary: Marjorie Jones Treasurer: Sally Wilcox Advisor: Miss Kathryn Garden Masque and Wig enjoyed a busy and suc- cessful season, with a membership of 28 , all members participating regularly. Richard Div- ver, with the aid of the officers and Miss Gar- den, presented many interesting meetings. Among the outstanding events of the year was the annual play, Seven Keys to Baldpate, by Gecrge M. Cohan. The Director, Mr. James G. Holmes of Emerson College, proved most able, and the Club was delighted with his work. The title role of the play was taken by Thomas Jackson, who gave an inspiring performance in his first High School play. The excellent cast included Marjorie Jones, Fred Wallace, Sally Wilcox, Richard Divver, Patricia Hjerpe, Ruth Jeffery, Allan Twitchell, Robert Marsolais, Richard Carey, Raymond Fairman, Lester Dav- is, Robert Greene, and David Horan. With the fine aid of the backstage crew, sound effects, prompter, properties, tickets, publicity, make-up, program chairmen, stacre manager, and ush- ers, the play was a tremendous success and brought many favorable comments. In February the principal activity was a theater party in Boston. Fourteen members en- joyed seeing a matinee performance of the play Peter Pan starring Jean Arthur. March was a busy time, as we were en- gaged in the preparation of two one-act plays for assembly production. Both plays Red and Yellow and Poor Henry were student coached; the first by Ruth Hayes, the second by Sally Wilcox; and the casts of each were made up entirely of the girls in the Club. The plays gave opportunity to several girls to make their first appearance before a student audience and in every case the new talent displayed was excellent and was enthusiastically re- ceived. As the year draws to a close, we can now experience a feeling of real accomplish- ment and pleasure, tinged only with regret that we bid farewell to so many fine Seniors. ‘Junior Ked Cross Club President: Dcrcthy Grover Secretary: Thelma Wright Planning Committee: Marie Tangusso, Barbara Restall, Beverly Gray The Junior Red Cross Club held its meet- ings in 311 under the supervision of Miss Lutz. Each homeroom selected a representative and an alternate. At the meetings the diligent workers proposed and completed many pro- jects. The members finished an afghan, made placecards to decorate the tables of disabled veterans at Christmas, bought and wrapped Christmas gifts for disabled veterans at the Chelsea Naval Hospital, made bean-o boards, and compiled scrapbooks of cartoons to be sent to veterans in hospitals. Along with these active projects, the club has a very successful membership drive. The time and work put into these activit- ies by the members was greatly appreciated. Boys ' Rifle Club President: John H. Herrick Vice-President: John Ramsay Secretary: Fred Dustin Treasurer: Arthur Johnston Faculty Advisor: Mr. Mansur The Rifle Club had another successful year under Mr. Mansur ' s excellent supervision. Teams were entered in both class A and class B of the N. R. A. national postal matches, each making a fine showing. The American Legion again ottered two medals for interclub com- petition. These were won by John Ramsay and John Herrick. Regular members of the team which competed with neighboring high schools were David Tyler, Arthur Johnston, Lawrence Lottridge, Fred Dustin, John Ramsay, James Thompson, James Ruggles, and John Herrick. Graduating members ot the club are John H. Herrick and James Stewart. Qlrls ' Rifle Club President: Naomi Maihict Vice-President: Joyce Meader Secretary: Mary Hopkins Treasurer: Frances Stuart Range Officers: Cynthia Miller and Joan Sher- idan. When half a dozen rifles are carried from the fire station to City Hall Thursday after- noons and Saturday mornings, it is nothing to be alarmed about. The Girls ' Rifle Club is holding practice. This year the scene of action has changed from Coolidge School to the ex-police range in City Hall. Here the girls strictly obey all the rules of safety established by Mr. Eric Mansur, the club sponsor. The mother of one of the girls attends each practice, but her presence is only precautionary as there has never been a single accident in all the years the club has been in operation. The seniors and juniors who make up the membership of Girls ' Rifle Club receive a large sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when they have shot high scores. The Club ' s pur- pose is to teach the girls the correct use of firearms for their own enjoyment. The month- ly postal matches, the results of which are tab- ulated in Washington, and two matches shot with Malden, give these rifle women ample op- portunity for competitive shooting. Rifle Club letters this year were awarded to Frances Stuart, Eleanor Morrison, Cynthia Herman, Janice Murphy, and Winifred Sibley. Band President: John Brown Vice-President: Paul Mowder Secretary-Treasurer: John Leonard Librarian: Nancy Brown Director: Mr. Withington The Band had another busy season. It played at all the football games and enter- tained the crowd with its novel formations and stirring music. Led by Judy Hawkes and the other drum majorettes, the group put on inter- esting half-time shows. The band marched in both the Armistice and Memorial Day parades. It was honored at the Northeastern Music Festival held at Marblehead by leading the parade of twenty- eight bands. It also participated in the Massed Band Concert at the same festival. It concluded its year ' s activities by play- ing at Music Night and graduation. (jlec Club President: James Westhaver Vice-President: Robert Mathews Secretary: Jane Schueler Treasurer: Harriet Clark Librarians: Janine King, Richard Thorp This year has been a busy and successful one for the Glee Club. While the presentation of the operetta was perhaps the biggest event, the club was privileged to lend its talents in many other directions. The first public performance of the club was at the Christmas Vesper Service. Part of this same program, in which Jacquelyn March and Marilyn Egan had solo parts, was presented to the school and to the Melrose Ro- tary Club. This year ' s operetta was Gilbert and Sul- livan ' s The Mikado , presented March 30 and 31. The brilliant cast included Robert Math- ews, Marilyn Egan, Virginia Stacey, Roberta Culver, Jacquelyn March, Allan Twitchell, James Stewart, Alfred Glover, and Richard Carey. As in past years the Glee Club participated in the annual Eastern Massachusetts Music Festival, this year held at Marblehead. Also along with other music organizations from this school, the club appeared on the program at Music Night. (girls ’ Club President: Nancy Johnson Vice-President: Marilyn King Recording Secretary: Sally Likins Treasurer: Beverly Dennison Corresponding Secretary: Joan Turner Advisor: Mr. George A. McPheters The Melrose High School Girls ' Club of 1950-51 spent many enjoyable Monday nights under the supervision of the likeable Mac McPheters. The organization is composed of friendly, dependable girls from the upper class- es. During the year the members enjoyed the enlightening talks of such outstanding people as Miss Garden, Mrs. Metcalf, Miss Miche, Mr. Poole, Father Casey, Rabbi S chultz, Mrs. Ro- meyn, and many others. Sistie Restall, Pro- gram Chairman, in her friendly manner, in- troduced the speakers each evening. The club increased their funds by sponsor- ing a food sale and selling ribbon candy. Some less fortunate families shared the hospitality of Girls ' Club at Thanksgiving time when the girls presented them with Thanks- giving baskets. Captain: Nancy Johnson Faculty Advisor: Mr. McPheters Although the football season was not too successful this year, the spirit and enthusiasm of the student body was high. Leading the crowds in cheers to urge the team on were the fifteen peppy cheerleaders of 1951. Ever ready with quick smiles and words of encouragement, these girls added variety to their cheers by in- troducing many new ones which were easily picked up by the student body. The girls also cheered at the basketba ll and hockey games. Over eighty girls from the Sophomore and Junior classes attended classes which were con- ducted by the present cheerleaders during the spring. In May these candidates competed for seven vacancies left by the girls who grad- uated this year. Those on the squad included: Captain Nan- cy Johnson, Beverly Dennison, Carol Herrick, Joan Lampasona, Joyce Luckett, Eleanor Mc- Gonagle, Yvonne Nickerson, Mary Potter, Bar- bara Restall, Estelle Rizzo, Anne Robbins, Ma- rie Rotundi, Lorraine Savage, Anne Talieri, and Joan Turner. Mi- V Club President: Richard Diwer Vice-President: Paul Bean Secretary: Alan Skelley Treasurer: Thomas Hancock Chaplain: Robert Mathews The Hi-Y Club is opened to any junior or senior boy at Melrose High School. The meet- ings are held every Tuesday evening at the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Ernest Huntoon is the club ' s advisor. During the year many interesting pro- grams were presented, including sports night, movies, and discussions. Among the prom- inent speakers were Representative Theodore V aitses and Hon. Lawrence E. Brooks. A series of talks by a member of each of the six branch- es of the armed forces was presented. Several local clergymen also spoke to the group. The purpose of the club is to create, main- tain, and extend throughout the school and com- munity high standards of Christian character. The club is built on the platform of clean liv- ing, clean sports, and clean scholarship. Zri-Mi- yeiub President: Alpha — Miriam MacDonald Beta — lo Ellen Lowe Gamma — Barbara Bell Vice-President: Alpha — Patricia Scott Beta — Carolyn Stollatis Gamma — Joy Aeisi Secretary: Alpha — Carol Dixon Beta — Nancy Garniss Gamma — Kay DeCoste Treasurer: Alpha — Eleanor Faulkner Beta — Donna Wiseman Gamma — Thelma Wright Advisers: Alpha — Mrs. Katherine Foss and Mrs. Ruth Sherman Beta — Mrs. Carol Landry Gamma — Mrs. Kenneth Griffin The Melrose Tri-Hi-Y was formed in March of last year. The first members were a former Girl Scout troop. This group, the Alpha Chap- ter, sponsored the Beta Chapter, and the Beta in turn sponsored Gamma. It is a service and social club, and its purpose is To create, main- tain, and extend throughout home, school, and community higher standards of Christian char- acter. The membership is open to freshmen and sophomore girls. At each meeting there is either a speaker, movie, or some kind of recreation. Since each member pays an affiliation with the YMCA, the gym and pool are available to them some morning during any vacation. One meeting a month is on a Friday night. A different girl each day works at the desk in the hospital for two hours in the afternoon. Two girls a night work in the coffee shop. Var- ious other service projects include providing poor families with clothes and food, making scrapbooks for hospitals, giving toys to chil- dren ' s wards, and giving money to world ser- vice organizations. Jrt Club President: Marie Rotondi Vice-President: Shirley Chaplin Secretary: Virginia Hermann Treasurer: Robert Williams This year the Art Club, under the guidance of Mrs. Foster, has completed many successful projects. At Christmas they made their own Christmas cards from linoleum blocks. They also made stained glass medallions. For its next project the club did oil paint- ings of vases of flowers. Each member had his choice of either a brown or black vase. Another interesting project was water-col- ors and charcoal drawings. The club did por- traits from real life with Jane Cushman and Adrienne Jones acting as models. Cartoon Club Chief Cartoonist: Frank Allison Recorder: Jocmne Robbins The Cartoon Club organized for its sixth year with the election of Frank Allison as Chief Cartoonist and Joanne Robbins as Recorder. Fifteen members mcmifest enough interest to warrant the continuation of the club, whose main purpose is to gather the inherent artistic talents of the young people. As in former years the club has met in the homeroom of Mr. McPheters, the sponsor, on Wednesday after- noons. It has concentrated on cartooning from life and the production of the club ' s paper Chuckles. The cartoons for Chuckles are supposed to be origina l. The stencils are cut from them, and then mimeographed. It is hoped this club will continue its activities through the coming years. Current Svents Club President: James Day Vice-President: Robert Green Secretary: Sabra Friend Sponsor: Mr. Hildreth This year the Current Events Club was late in organizing; therefore, its membership is small. Programs consist of discussions of con- temporary problems, movies, and field trips. Recently, S Sgt. Martin J. Almlov and S Sgt. Joseph Motzi Jr. of the Army Air Force led a discussion and question period on the benefits offered by this branch of the service and the advantages of U. M. T. Also, one of our new sophomore class members, Keisler Schmitt, told us of her experiences in her native country, Germany, during the past war. During April, we sent Roger Cogger to represent Melrose Hig h School in the proposed UN youth group conference at Newton High School. Operators Club President: Norman Preece Vice-President: Richard Pitts Secretary: Robert Russo Librarians: Douglas Kenney, John Ladd Sponsor: Iver Laine The Operators Club has expanded during the past year to become one of the top service clubs at M. H. S. There are approximately 30 members including a few girls. This year ' s Freshman group has been active in making many improvements in the club. Mere motion picture equipment was pur- chased during the year which enabled the club members to put on better shows for the student body. The club also showed pictures for the High School Parent Teachers Associa- tion to help out the Scholarship Fund. The club put on all the shows at City Hall for Civ- ilian Defense. The club members visited the Melrose Theater during the year and learned a great deal about professional equipment and pro- jection. Most of the club meetings were devot- ed to the many details of putting on a good show in the classroom and the auditorium. The continuous show or switching from one pro- jector to another was studied and improved. Entertainment films were occasionally viewed by the club during their meetings. Modern ' Dance Club President: Joyce Luckett Vice-President: Pat Hjerpe Secretary-Treasurer: Feme Hayhurst The Modern Dance Club meets every Mon- day afternoon in the Girls ' gym. The girls prac- tice rhythmic exercises and create composi- tions. This year some of the girls went to New- ton, where they joined in a master lesson with Juan Destine, a famous dance artist. Senior participants are Joyce Luckett, Joyce Meader, and Shirley Monegan. Our sponsor is Miss Gray of the Faculty. Headers ’ Club President: Marilyn King Vice-President: Ruth Jeffery Secretary: Jane Foss The year of 1950-1951 introduced a new organization, The Leaders ' Club, composed of girls who are interested in athletics, show qual- ities of leadership as well as the ability to par- ticipate in sports. This club is sponsored by Mrs. June Kynn of the Physical Education De- partment. The Leaders learned how to officiate and how to become better players in such sports as: fistball, field hockey, basketball, softball, and volleyball. They also assisted Mrs. Kynn in the gym by checking attendance, counting towels, assisting in the shower room, and of- ficiating games. The Leaders ' Club shows great promise of developing into one of the most popular clubs in the school. Allied l outk President: Bernard Carpenter Vice-President: Thomas Holden Secretary: Aina Palm Treasurer: Carol Herrick Faculty Advisors: Mr. Walton and Miss Chase During its first three years in Melrose High School, Allied Youth has become one of the largest and most active organizations in the school. Its purpose, to seek the truth con- cerning beverage alcohol and the best way of life in relation to this problem, attracted more than 150 members. Meetings are generally held on the first and third Wednesday of every month during S period in Room 413. Through movies, spea- kers, and panel discussions, in which the mem- bers participate, the club seeks to provide scientific information on alcohol. Chairmen of committees are: Katherine Orthman, Doris Diehl, Robert MacDonald, Marjorie Jones, and Sally Marsolais. Apart from the educational part of the program Allied Youth functions as a social club to provide alcohol-free recreation for its members and the school. The annual sports dance, The Florida Fling, was put on at a nominal cost per person. A spring social was also held. Other activities included raising money to help in the production of the Allied Youth movie being made in Florida. The Melrose Post 401 was greatly honored in having its president, Bernard Carpenter, elected National Chairman of Allied Youth at the national conference at Pennsylvania, De- cember 1, 1950. Doris Diehl also attended this conference from Melrose. Bernard serves as a chairman of over 12,000 members from Florida to Japan. In this capacity also, he led the Al- lied Youth delegation to the Mid-Century White House Conference on Children and Youth. Student Activities Virginia Pyne Nancy Goodwin Mary Harris Janice Murphy Irving Neiman, Faculty Director This group is under the sponsorship of Mr. Neiman. It handles the sale of Student Acti- vities tickets and the exchanges for tickets for the various events which are covered by the S. A. ticket. It also receives and disburses the funds of the various clubs. ATHLETICS Hockey Co-captains: Dana Hennigar, Robert Marsolais Manager: Robert Rendall Coach: Henry Hughes After a hectic season which saw Melrose tied for first place for seven weeks, the Red Rockets finished in the Greater Boston Inter- scholastic Hockey League ' s runner-up spot, two points behind the Cantabs of Cambridge Latin. Melrose had an especially notable repre- sentation of eight bladesters chosen for the G. B. I. All-Star Teams. Forwards Bob Marsolais, Herk Kennefic, and Andy Cicoria; Defense- man Dana Hennigar; and Goalie Don Whynot were elected to the First Team; Dick Lee, Don Dewsnap, and Dick Kelley were chosen as members of the Second Team. Graduating seniors comprise half of the eighteen-man squad; hence the number of re- turning veterans is very small. The Record: Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose Melrose 2 Cambridge Lat. 2 3 Stoneham 1 4 Rindge 1 5 Newton 2 0 Belmont 1 4 Medford 0 4 Arlington 2 6 Arlington 2 Belmont 0 2 Cambridge Lat. 3 Won 7 Goals For 37 Lost 2 Goals Against 14 Tied 1 Coach: Mrs. June Kynn Manager: Virginia Stacey Captain: Marilyn King The Girls ' Field Hockey games were suc- cessfully completed with two victories, one tie, and no severe defeats. The schedule for the season included games with Arlington, Con- cord, Lexington, Newton, Malden, Stoneham, and Winchester. Mary Solari, center forward, scored two goals, while Betty Cuthbertson, Mar- ilyn King, Carolyn Powers, Elsa Joyce, and Claire Davis scored one apiece. During the season the girls purchased Lady Luck , a black and white stuffed cocker spaniel with M. H. S. on her back. Sitting on the opponent ' s goal, with her tail wagging wildly, she beckoned the girls to score. Be- cause she proved to be such a loving mascot, she was given to the Girls ' Athletic Association to be used for the tennis, basketball, and soft- ball teams. Boys ' Basketball Captain: Wells Whitney Coach: Doc” Clark Managers: Stanley Foster, Alfred Glover The 1950-51 Melrose High Basketball Team finished a successful season placing fourth in the eight team Middlesex League. The sea- son ended with Winchester and Lexington tied for first. Belmont, in third place, was the only other team to compile a better record than Mel- rose. At the opening of the season Coach Clark found no returning regulars to mold a team around, but he managed to floor a strong team which compiled a respectable seven and elev- en record. Captain Wells Whitney led the locals in scoring with 278 points and placed second in the league, three-tenths of a point behind the winner, McDonnell of Lexington. Had Wells not been injured in his final league appear- ance, he could have easily walked off with the title. The other seniors on the team, Alan Skelley and Dick Donaghy, also played good basketball for the local cause. The highlight of the season came during the February vacation when the team took a two day trip to Clinton, Connecticut. The Clark- men surprised the strong Morgan High team by upsetting them 54-40. After spending an enjoy- able evening with Clinton players, the squad returned via Springfield, where they visited Springfield College. (jirls ’ Basketball Manager: Barbara Merrifield Assistant Manager: Martha Wright Coach: Miss Elizabeth Gray The girls ' basketball season got under way in November with the scheduling of inter-class games in which many of the girls participated. These games were completed in December, with the Juniors taking top honors. In December, competition was keen as the inter-school squad was selected from the large group of girls trying out for the few team pos- itions. Many hours of after-school practice were spent in learning basketball techniques from the time the squad was chosen till the first game with Belmont on January 17. This was the beginning of a four game losing streak. Although the girls took their mascot (a toy black and white dog with a red Melrose ban- ner) to some of the games with them, it did not seem to favor the team with any much-needed luck. Nevertheless, there was plenty of team spirit throughout the basketball season. football Although the Melrose football squad was hampered all season by injuries and bad breaks, the Gavinmen managed to compile a fair record of one win, four ties, and four loss- es. Prior to the opening game, All-Star back Charlie Holden and Cappy Kidd received in- juries which held them out for the entire sea- son. Center Tom Holden and end Louie Mar- solini were injured midway during the season. The Raiders ended a long winless streak by defeating Medford 13-6. The games with Haverhill, Watertown, Wakefield, and Glou- cester ended in ties. Losses to Newton and Cambridge by one touchdown, Malden and Arlington by two, were the defeats of the cam- paign. The scoring burden was carried by the touchdown twins, Ozzie Boutin and Russ Bur- gess. Other members of the M. H. S. backfield were Captain Lee Graves, Roland Harrington, Philip Sheridan, Jim Brophy, and Andy Cicor- ia. In the line the class of 51 was represen- ted by Lem Oakes, Leo Colborne, Don Boland, Dick Lee, Dave Tuell, Bob Walker, Skippy Westhaver, and Jack O ' Brien. Melrose was represented on the Suburban All Star team by Coach Gavin, Leo Colborne, and Russ Burgess. These three were largely responsible for their victory over the North Shore All Stars. C ir s ' Athletic Association President: Betty Otis Vice-President: Ann Robbins Secretary: Carol Dixon Treasurer: Nancy Johnson The G. A. A. is made up of all girls in the Physical Education classes. There is a coun- cil composed of the officers, managers and as- sistant managers of the spcrts, representatives from the freshman and sophcmcre classes, and representatives from the Modern Dance Club and Leaders Club. Its purpose is to promote athletic interest and provide greater participa- tion, to create greater opportunities for pupil leadership, and to improve teacher-pupil rela- tionship. A business meeting is held once a month during Stationary period. baseball Coach: Dave Gavin Manager: Stanley Foster At this writing the Melrose High Baseball Club has just started its quest for the Middlesex Baseball League Championship which it has failed to win since joining the league. How- ever, the 51 season seems to be Melrose ' s year as coach Dave Gavin has come up with his strongest club of many years. Winning their only three games to date by the lopsided scores of 9 to 4, 13 to 1, and 11 to 1, including a victory ever defending champion Stoneham, the locals seem well on their way to the M. B. L. Championship. Mainstay of the hurling corps is right-hand- er Herky Kennefic, with Earle Seaman and Don Bingham ready to go in relief. Peppery Andy Cicoria is a fixture behind the plate, while the infield is set up with Earle Seaman at first, Dick Kelley at second, Franny Trail at short, and Paul Bean at third. The veteran outfield consists of Cappy Kidd, Russ Burgess, and Dana Hennigar, with Don Boland ready to fill in at any time. ( iris ’ Captain: Marilyn King Manager: Sally Wilcox Coach: Mrs. June Kynn Playing with vim and vigor, the 1951 soft- ball squad had a profitable season, with games played with Belmont, Malden, Winchester, Lexington, Arlington, Concord, and Newton. To add to last year ' s members, who were Marilyn King, Betty Cuthbertson, Judy Matt- Softball hews, Cynthia Miller, Phyllis Duke, Peggy Reed, Jean Bucci, Beverly Carter, and Barbara Welsh, we had Pat McLeod, Mary Leahy, Wal- dena White, Janine 1 King, Sue Dolber, and Ma- rie Sheridan. Every girl was outstanding at her particular position and at the bat all aver- ages were good. Many thanks go to our star pitchers Marilyn King and Pat McLeod. Under the able guidance of Mrs. Kynn, the team had a happy and worthwhile season. Zraek Captain: Alfred Glover Coach: Foster Flint Manager: Orland Colbome Graduating members of the 1951 M. H. S. track team include Dick Cobleigh in the 100 yard dash, the 220 yard dash and the relay team. Charlie Holden ran the 100 yard dash. A1 Glover ran the 440 yard dash, the broad jump, and was on the relay team. Elton Ful- ler, John Minott, and Roger Cogger led in the mile, while Stan Barwise and Bemie Carpenter competed in the high jump. Ed Lederman ran the low hurdles. Ozzie Boutin was lost to the team for the season due to an operation. Melrose had dual meets with Winthrop, Punchard, Concord, Woburn, Wakefield, and Winchester followed by a quad meet at Win- chester, the State Relays at Belmont, and the State Meet at White Stadium, Franklin Park. Cross Country Captain: A1 Glover Coach: Doc Clark Managers: Albert Margeson, Fred Wallace The 1950 Melrose High School Cross Coun- try team completed a very successful season. Doc Clark came up with another of his out- standing teams. After compiling a record of 6 - 3 for the regular season, the Harriers went on to win the Middlesex League Cross Country Championship at Tufts College. The team placed third in the Pioneer, Divisional at Hav- erhill. Paced by A1 Glover, Elton Fuller, Bob Dias, John Arnold, Dick Thorp, John Minott, and Joe Reid, the team placed fourth in the State Meet at Franklin Park. Boys ’ Zennis The Boys ' Tennis Team this year is a com- paratively inexperienced one, last year ' s team being composed mostly of seniors. The team is primarily a sophomore and junior team, the top members being Reggie Parsons, Eddie Fagerty, Pete Sawtelle and Alton Shurbuck. There are two seniors, however, Dick Finne- gan and Oliver Morse. The past year ' s team placed second in the Suburban League, which is being extended this year. The schedule for this year includes matches with Beverly, Malden, Waltham, Rindge Tech, Cambridge Latin, Belmont, and Watertown. Qirls ’ Tennis Coach: Elizabeth Gray Manager: Eleanor Morrison Although there was no tennis team in the Fall, there was an intramural tournament, in which many of the girls on the Spring team competed. The winner of this tournament was Ruth Jeffrey. Tryouts for the Spring tennis team were held in April after which the final team was chosen. Seniors on the team are: Judith Bow- man, Harriet Clark, Frances Stuart, Joan Turn- er, and Ann Wikstrom. Matches were played with Belmont, Mal- den, Winchester, Arlington, and Newton. The matches consist of three singles and two doubles. m -Captain: Bob Jenney Coach: Mr. Blair Wilson Mr. Wilson is looking forward to another successful year with the golf team. Bob Jen- ney and Wells Whitney are the lone senior members, and with the help of several under- class members, hope to duplicate last year ' s feat of winning the divisional championship. With one divisional meet already won, victor- ies are hoped for against Winchester, Wake- field, and Reading, the pre-season favorite. Each squad is played twice, once at home, and again on the opponent ' s course. Other scheduled matches are with Tufts College Freshmen, and Governor Dummer Academy. The Bellevue Golf Club is host to the team as all home meets are matched there. Since its organization, the team ' s record has been excellent, and this year should be no exception. The future outlook is also very good as several prospective freshmen are trying for the team. 7j lu y I CLASS DAY PROPHECY PRESENTATIONS ELEANOR McGONAGLE ? BEVERLY DENNISON STATISTICS HISTORY JUDITH BOWMAN JANET CONN Marshal ’$ Address Thomas F. Holden Jr. Parents, Teachers, and Friends, as repre- sentative of this class, it is my pleasure to wel- come you today. You have been invited to share with us the thrills we are about to enjoy as we recall to mind some of the outstanding happenings we, the class of 1951 have experienced during our four years together, and to glimpse with us into the crystal ball as we conjure up some startling visions which an unsuspecting future holds for us. Because of our kind and understanding teachers it has been a profitable, as well as a happy experience together, one which we shall always look back upon with joy and satisfac- tion. And now the witching hour is at hand. Let us see what destiny holds in store for us, as we trace our illustrious course across the skies. Mistory of the Class of 1951 by Janet Conn Here, in a year of crises and alarms, we pause on the threshold of adult life, perhaps a little dubious, but with the courage and en- thusiasm of youth. The future may be cloudy, but that we do not .see. For us, the future can be countless years of prosperity and peace, and that is the goal toward which we move. Since of the days to come we know nothing, let us turn to the days past. Let us here set aside a few moments to recall the four years of our life which have been spent in Melrose High School. As humble freshmen, we gingerly entered the portals of this school with bright faces and eager attitudes. We served as a proof of that eternal theory held by the seniors that the freshmen are small- er every year. As always, during those first days we were the vic- tims of the lofty seniors, but gradually we became normal fixtures of the building. Even as freshmen we were entitled to representation on the Student Council, and we elected Nancy Johnson and Marilyn King to share that honor. The dramatic talent of our class showed itself in the plays o f The Cloak and Plume Society. Don ' t you re- member Allan Twitchell, Fred Wallace, and Sally Wilcox in HER- ITAGE OF WIMPOLE STREET? More excellent performances were given by Barbara Restall, Yvonne Nickerson, Bernard Carpenter, Bet- ty Cuthbertson, Richard Divver, and Evelyn Herrick. Even in the field of sports, some of our classmates were beginning to distinguish themselves. Bob Marsolais, Herky Kennefic, and Andy Cicoria be- came members of the varsity hockey team. On the track team we were represented by John Reid, Ed Lederman, Tom Davison, and Rolf Barnes; Cross Country runners were Roland Harrington, Rolf Barnes, and Stanley Barwise. The call of the summer was soon heeded, and books were stored in dusty corners for our glorious ten-week vacation, which most of us spent on sunny beaches. With a somewhat superior feeling, we returned in the fall of 19- 48 to our more serious pursuit of acquiring knowledge. President Bob Marsolais, Vice-President Louis Marsolini, Secre- tary Nancy Johnson, and Treasurer Barbara Restall, led our illus- trious class that year. As Sophomores, we were a part of the High School life, and many clubs found members of our class as active participants. The Imprint admitted Beverly Dennison, Mary Hop- kins, Edward Gradijan, Jane Schueler, Frances Stuart, Joan Turner, and Janet Conn as Cub Reporters. Our aspirants in the field of dra- matics convinced audiences of their talents in Pot Luck. Joyce Mea- der, Bernard Carpenter, Mary Hopkins, and Richard Divver were all commended for their acting, and Sally Wilcox for her directing. Mar- ilyn King went back to the Student Council once again; this time Phil Sheridan was also elected as the second representative. Our hockey team was second only to Arlington in the G. B. I. League, and active on the team were Dana Hennigar, Bob Marsolais, Andy Cicoria, Herky Kennefic, and Don Emery. On the Track Team, Stan Barwise was a fine high jumper, and Aubrey Boutin was an outstanding performer in the dashes. On the football team, Tommy Holden represented our class, while in baseball we were proud of Herky Kennefic, who was on the pitching staff. Many members of the female portion of our class were active in girls ' sports. The pep- pier girls in the class also turned out wholeheartedly for cheerlead- ing; Joyce Luckett, Nancy Johnson, and Estelle Rizzo were the lucky ones from our class to wear the cheering uniforms. But once again summer was here, and we turned from our learning to swimming, sunning, and relaxing. By the time the balmy breezes veered to the north and the leaves of the trees were changing their dress from green to more brilliant shades, the class was applying itself studiously to books and home- work. This year promised many exciting events. To begin with, the Annual Fall Convention of the Eastern Massachusetts Division of Student Councils was held here with forty-two schools represented. This was a gala occasion which conferred much prestige on the school. At the polls we once again voted for class officers. The win- ners were Phil Sheridan, President; Louis Marsolini, Vice President; Betty Otis, Secretary; and Barbara Restall, Treasurer. These four were outstanding leaders during that most eventful year. This year, although our football team did not make an impress- ive record, the boys worked hard, and many members of our class were outstanding on the field: Charlie Holden, who was named to the All-Star Team, Russ Burgess, Phil Sheridan, Tom Holden, Lee Graves, Roland Harrington, Leo Colborne, Ozzie Boutin, Dave Tuell, Lem Oakes, Jim Brophy, Don Emery, Jack O ' Brien, and Skip West- haver, all excelled in the games. This year, our Glee Club presented a fine operetta, deviating from the usual Gilbert and Sullivan. It was Robin Hood, by Regin- ald DeKoven. James Westhaver and A1 Glover had leading roles. Members of our class also participated in the Masque and Wig pro- duction of Jane Eyre. In the starring roles were Barbara Restall and Bernard Carpenter. It was also in this year that our wonderful hoc- key team won the New England Hockey Crown. Most of us breath- lessly watched those championship games and cheered on our star players, Bobby Marsolais, Andy Cicoria, Herky Kennefic, Dana Hen- nigar, Dick Kelley, and Dick Lee. On the basketball court, Wells Whitney was already outstanding. In the Spring, our young men ' s fancies turned toward baseball; Herky Kennefic, Tommy Holden, Don Emery, Dana Hennigar, Cappy Kidd, Jack Smith, Dick Kelley, and Dick Donaghy made the team. It was also in this spring that Melrose saw one of the most gala events in her history, the Eastern Massachusetts Music Festival. The brilliant parade and the concert were of magnitude such as few of us had ever witnessed. Our musical organizations made an admir- able showing under Mr. Withington ' s competent direction. Three members of our class were chosen to go to Boys ' and Girls ' State: Nancy Johnson, John Lilly, and Bob Marsolais. The Cheerleading Squad was chosen after much debate, and Marie Rotondi, Joan Lampasona, Ann Talieri, Yvonne Nickerson, Mary Potter, Joan Turner, Beverly Dennison, Barbara Restall, and Eleanor McGonagle were the winning candidates. During the year Mr. Wilder, who had given us such splendid leadership during our high school career, resigned, and was suc- ceeded by Mr. Poole, to whom we will always be indebted for his kindness and helpfulness as we completed our high school days. By June, we were quite ready to rest after a school year of ex- citing events and diligent studying. We returned to school in September as high and lordly seniors, gazing disdainfully at the new class of freshmen whose members were smaller than any others we had ever seen. We certainly were relieved that we would not remain in school long enough to feel the effects of this new pigmy horde. When the senior ballots had been collected and counted, it was found that Thomas Holden was President; Louis Marsolini, Vice-Pres- ident; Nancy Johnson, Secretary; and Barbara Restall, Treasurer. Congratulations should be given to Louis Marsolini and Barbara Restall who have held their respective offices for three years. Mar- ilyn King and Lee Graves were our representatives on the Student Council. One of the geniuses in our class, Regina Gittes, tied for sixth place in the state-wide Boston American History Contest and re- ceived a $25 bond prize. Another outstanding classmate, Bernard Carpenter, was named National Chairman of Allied Youth. The seniors who, by attaining high scholastic marks, became members of Honor Society are Rolf Barnes, Regina Gittes, Harriet Clark, Cecily Cochrane, Irene Baker, Janet Conn, Nancy Robinson, Joan Turner, Dorothy Grover, Stanley Foster, John Smith, Marion Tucker, Judy Bowman, Bernard Carpenter, Edward Gradijan, Nan- cy Johnson, Barbara Merrifield, Mary Otis, Ethel Robichaud, Marie Rotondi, Frances Stuart, Marilyn Tonks, Beverly Dennison, Mary Kelly, Robert Martin, Eleanor McGonagle, Herbert Shimmin, and Wells Whitney. It was also during our senior year that we witnessed the inaugu- ration of the public address system, over which many of us were privileged to try out our speaking abilities. This year, the record of our football team was far superior to that of the previous year, even though two of our star players, Charles Holden and Cappy Kidd were sidelined for the season. The boys excelled in spirit and team co-operation. On those brisk fall Saturdays, most of us could be found at the games cheering for Don- ald Boland, Aubrey Boutin, James Brophy, Charles Brown, Russell Burgess, Anthony Cicoria, Leo Colborne, Donald Emery, Lee Graves, Thomas Holden, Richard Lee, Roland Harrington, Louis Marsolini, Lemuel Oakes, John O ' Brien, Lennart Saxild, Philip Sheridan, Dav- id Tuell, Robert Walker, and James Westhaver. Our outstanding individual athletic achievement was the recognition of the ability of Russell Burgess and Leo Colborne in their selection for the 1951 All-Stars. The Imprint Staff did a fine job in reporting school news under the editorial staff headed by Bernard Carpenter, and including Bev- erly Dennison, Mary Hopkins, Russell Burgess, Frances Stuart, Stan- ley Foster, Louis Marsolini, Janet Conn, Jane Schueler, and Albert Margeson. This year, even though our hockey team did not win the cham- pionship, we were proud of the fine club which made an outstand- ing record. Our congratulations go to the fine goalie, Don Whynot, and to Bob Marsolais, Andy Cicoria, Dick Kennefic, Dana Hennigar, Dick Kelley, Cappy Kidd, Dick Lee, and Jack O ' Connell. During the winter season, many of us also attended basketball games. Melrose had a fine basketball aggregation led by Wells Whitney, Alan Skelley, and Dick Donaghy. The dramatic club, Masque and Wig Society, presented Seven Keys to Baldpate, a comedy-mystery starring seniors Fred Wallace, Sally Wilcox, Richard Divver, Allan Twitchell, Richard Carey, and Robert Marsolais. The Log this year has been edited under the direction of Beverly Dennison, Editor-in-chief, and James Barnovitch, Business Manager. The members of the Literary Staff are Dana Hennigar, Mary Hop- kins, Yvonne Nickerson, Betty Otis, Nancy Johnson, and Frances Stuart. Aubrey Boutin, Leo Colborne, Jane Delaney, Richard Kenne- fic, Barbara Merrifield, and Eleanor McGonagle were members of the Business Staff. The Glee Club presented a wonderful production, The Mikado, by Gilbert and Sullivan. Leading parts were played by James West- haver, Richard Carey, Allan Twitchell, James Stewart, Alfred Glover, Roberta Culver, and Virginia Stacey. Now, the eventful four years of our high school life have come to a close. It is with a somewhat sorrowful feeling that we have as- cended the last step and reached our goal. We have inscribed our history on the pages of the Book of the Ages, and now we proceed with the assurance that Melrose High School will be proud of us, its latest sons and daughters. Class Ode by Roli Barnes and James Stewart The time has come for parting We hear the trumpet call The future lies before us, A challenge to us all. CHORUS Let our hearts be full of courage While we trod the paths of youth Awake in us the purpose high That leads us to the truth. Second verse With scorn for all but perfect We magnify our soul. With truth to light our pathway We will gain the cherished goal. Statistics of the Class of 1951 by Judith Bowman Good afternoon, parents and friends of the Class of 1951. We are happy to welcome you to our Senior Celebrities on Parade, intro- ducing to you the most distinguished personalities of our graduating class. Let s now focus the spotlight on those hit performers who have made our class really outstanding. Our Most Popular Senior Boy? Why, it ' s Tommy Holden with his easy-going manner, warm smile, and personality-plus ! Tom- my has also won the distinction of being class president. Pep and vivacity and a beaming smile for everyone — that ' s Nancy Johnson, our Most Popular Senior Girl! Because of her out- standing leadership qualities, Nancy has been active in many ex- tra-curricular groups and has been a noteworthy president of Girls ' Club. Next come two people who ' ll never break a camera; they are the Hedy Lamarr and Farley Granger of M. H. S. — Mimi Rotondi and Dick Lee. Looks plus some acting ability would certainly in- sure this handsome twosome a one-way ticket to Hollywood. For the ladies ' attention, however, Dick has competition — com- petition in the person of Danny Lucey whose friendly smile and likeable personality have won him the title of Class Ladies ' Man. While we don ' t have a class Man ' s Lady, Kay Gibbons well qualifies as Class Flirt. Why did the moron put a saddle on the stove? So he could ride the range! This is only a sample from Witty Walker ' s re- pertoire of corn. Bob ' s sudden brainstorms and quick quips have branded him as Class Wit. The hilarious laughing sprees of Cecily Cochrane, our Class Giggler, have often echoed through the fourth floor corridors and of- fered a relief to many boring classes. Now let ' s turn our attention to a more intellectual phase of Se- nior Celebrities on Parade. Regina Gittes is our Most Studious mem- ber; it ' s no wonder then that she is also our Class Genius. In ad- dition to her scholastic achievements, Regina is president of the Future Teachers of America Club and is an ardent Mario Lanza fan. Doesn ' t Most Likely to Succeed and Class Valedictorian fall in- to the genius category, too? Bernard Carpenter truly merits both these distinctions. Not only is Bernie Editor-in-Chief of the Imprint, but he has also brought glory to Melrose High by having been elec- ted national chairman of Allied Youth last December. I ' ll bet you never knew that Mr. Poole is guilty of harboring a notorious criminal within the gates of this educational institution- For over four years now it has been a mystery who, on a certain Thursday afternoon when the gym class was left minus an instruc- tor, belted the baseball through a first floor window of the Coolidge School! Nancy Moulton, our Most Athletic Girl, has skillfully el- uded capture by the police, but will she now please stand and con- fess her guilt? Who is the Hercules of our class? Why, Herky Kennefic, our Most Athletic Boy, of course! Besides being an indispensable mem- ber of both the baseball and football squads, Herky is also one of our New England hockey champs. Now that Bette Davis ' acting technique has begun to be a bit monotonous and is no longer unique, Hollywood is sending out an S. O. S. for an actress who can create a new national sensation! Don ' t you agree that the dramatic ability of Sistie Restall, our Class Actress, well warrants her earning a million dollars a week and owning a two hundred foot private swimming pool? Let ' s hope that Sistie won ' t be married four times like Miss Davis, though! Since Clark Gable ' s Gone With the Wind days have apparent- ly terminated too, Hollywood could also use a talented performer like Dick Divver, our Class Actor, who has played leading roles in both Cloak and Plume and Masque and Wig productions for four years. Dick is also vice-president of Masque and Wig this year. Talk about bluffers! Well just wait ' til you meet Russ Burgess, our Most Successful Bluffer, whose fame rests on the fact that he has never lost an argument. Russ has the most convincing manner and most innocent tone of vo ice of any person in the senior class. Well, you see Mr. Clough, it was this way: first of all, I ac- cidentally hit myself on the head with an axe, and as a result, be- came a victim of amnesia, so how could I possibly remember what the homework assignment was? And in the second place, how could I help it if I slammed my hand in the car door so badly that I couldn ' t even hold a pencil? Wild tales like these are familiar to those who were in Mr. Clough ' s IIIc math class last year with our Least Successful Bluffer, Roland Harrington! Lobsters? How do lobsters fit into the picture? Well, if you saw how scarlet our Class Blusher, Joan Turner, gets even at the mention of her name, you ' d see the similarity. But really Joan, you don ' t have a face like a lobster! Roses are red, Violets are blue For two original lines to finish this hackneyed verse, let ' s call on Bev Dennison, Class Poet, who can usually think up some cute little rhyme or jingle when the occasion demands it. Gay Paris has nothing on Melrose High when it comes to fash- ions! The beautiful clothes of cur Most Fastidious personality, Jane Delaney, would make many a Parisian model envious. The 8:15 bell starts to ring; running footsteps echo in the cor- ridor; then suddenly appears through the door the big toe of Oliver Morse, just a split second before the sound of the bell peters out! One word which has always been lacking in the vocabulary of our Least Often on Time member is punctuality. There are few of us who have not been thrilled dancing to the music of Donnie Clapp ' s popular band. It ' s no wonder, then, that Don is our Class Swing King. If Arthur Murray thinks he knows a lot about dancing, he should watch the magic clodhoppers of Ann Talieri and Cappy Kidd! If any of you bump into trouble trying to master the Charleston, most recent dancefloor fad, rest assured that you can find no better teach- ers than these Best Dancers of 1951. Ambition, shyness, conscientiousness are qualities which ap- parently our class considers saintly, for Eddie Gradijan has been voted Class Saint. It has been confirmed by the most prominent medical author- ities in this country that knocking knees is one of the first symptoms of a case of jitters. I guess, then, that I had better ask Virginia Jack- man and Tom Warren to take their bows now before their bashful- ness causes their cases to be more serious! Poise and decorum personified — that describes Barbara Merri- field, who, besides being chosen the Most Dignified Senior Cele- Prity, is also vice-president of Honor Society and manager of the girls ' basketball team. What senior has played leading roles in operetta productions for three years, and what hilarious performance in The Mikado last March will go down in M. H. S. history? Who could fit this descrip- tion but Skippy Westhaver, our Class Songster! Just keep exer- cising those vocal chords, Skip, and you ' ll be a sure hit with any audience. Just like two peas in a pod — that ' s Louie Marsolini and Andy Cicoria, alias Luigi and Eckstine. According to Imprint reports the secret ambition of these Best Class Pals is to open a nightclub spec- ializing in their favorite food, spaghetti! Louis also has displayed his outstanding artistic talent as Art Editor of the Imprint, an accom- plishment which well qualifies him also as our Class Artist. Be- cause of his remarkable talent for making enormous mountains out of the tiniest molehills, and for having died a million deaths every time he ' s stubbed his big toe, Andy has also been stamped Class Exaggerator. Here s a threesome which has lifted class morale 100 percent — Dana Hennigar, Sistie Restall, and Ann Talieri. Because of smiles that never droop, they have been chosen Best Natured Boy and Girls respectively. Those who counted votes were confronted with a unique situation because Sistie and Ann were tied for the latter title. Our Senior Celebrities on Parade Has come to a close now, I ' m afraid, But I must mention one little lass, The Most Original of her class, Whose vote, when counted, pointed out An opinion of which I have some doubt; You question my doubting? Well I ' ll tell you why, That little lass turned out to be I! Prophecy of the Class of 1951 by Beverly Dennison Before I start, I feel duty-bound to explain to you all that any relation between Heaven and the place of which I speak today is purely coincidental. (Not having been there yet, I can hardly qual- ify to describe it, but imagination will nave to be a substitute Icr experience in this case.) Oh yes, just supposing you haven ' t guess- ed, I ' m an angel, a Reporter angel, at that, and I ' m reporting to you on the scene, straight from a soft white cloud in Heaven ' s back yard. Whew! (puffing and wiping brow), am I exhausted! They never told me Heaven would be like this. I ' ve been here less than a week and I don ' t believe I ' ve had time to sit down and get my breath since I first entered the gates. , How strange it seems to think back to when I was on Earth. Who would ever have thought I ' d finally realize my old dreams — a re- porter at seventy-eight. What a human interest that would make! I ' ll admit it ' s a far cry from raising four children, six dogs, and a dozen cats, but then, Heaven would hardly be so pleasant if it were merely a repetition of one ' s life on Earth. What a relief from the old routine of washing, ironing, and cleaning! That ' s what I like about Heaven — we old folks get a chance to enjoy ourselves. It ' s odd how different I thought it would be here. No wonder I was so taken aback when I had my interview! When that kindly, innocent old angel appeared in a business suit, looking like on ad straight out of Businessman ' s Chronicle , I was so flabbergasted that I was almost speechless (almost, not quite, you know) — St. Peter in an office! Then the questions — no wonder I asked if I had got the right place. What age would you like to be? What profession are you interested in entering? I ' d always thought of Heaven as a sort of Rest Home for the Aged. Right then it seemed more like an Employment Agency for the Placement of Misplaced Angels, but I answered as well as I was able. Then St. Peter said in that deep rumbling voice of his, Believe me, Madam, you will soon understand everything, and I ' m sure that you will make a happy and useful citizen in our community. Please sign the Reg- ister. I did, and was whisked off by two uniformed angels in whom I was astonished to recognize my old schoolmates BOB BUTT and ROBERT BADESSA. We took an elevator, run, surprisingly, by St. Peter ' s right-hand elevator boy, HOWARD CRITCHETT, and I soon found myself cross- a huge cloud to a store whose sign read CHISHOLM, CHISHOLM, and CHILCOTT, Clothiers. Across the street I saw the huge man- ufacturing company of harp makers, BROWN, BROWN, and BUCH- ERT. When I entered the store, there sat CECILY COCHRANE, looking very business-like, with a huge ledger before her. Looking up just long enough to say Hello , she handed my attendants a small card on which was typed Beverly Dennison — Reporter in bold letters. Immediately upon receiving this passport, I was rushed to the fourth floor, where I was to be outfitted for my profession. Entering a door marked Reporters , I found myself in a huge room containing every possible necessity for the heavenly reporter: hats, shoes, bags, suits, each in its own department. Presiding over this tastefully decorated section was JOANNE FRITZ, the depart- ment ' s buyer, who helped choose my outfits. The attractive and very obliging model for this department, JANE DELANEY, was of great assistance in my buying too, and the clerks, JACKY FUCHS, ELAINE GOULD, MARY KELLY, and EVELYN HERRICK, soon had me ready. Within less than an hour after my arrival, I found my- self again on the street. There I had a narrow escape. A taxi, driven by that cautious chauffeur, BARBARA AHERN of AHERN, BOYLE and BLACK, Fe- male Taxi Service, nearly ended my heavenly residence, but a member of the Celestial Protectors for the Safety of Pedestrian An- gels, daring CONNIE CAYTING, rescued me and sent me on my way to the offices of the Evening Star. There I was delighted to meet my editor, Fighting BERNARD CARPENTER. Bernard, re- nowned throughout all Heaven for his fiery editorials, and equally fiery campiagns for the Recognition of the Rights of First-Class Star Polishers, introduced me to my fellow-workers — NANCY HINES, Lovelorn Editor; CLAIRE CONCANNON, Editor in charge of Lower World Entries; GWENDOLYN COLBORNE, Society Editor; ROBERT KENNEDY, editor in charge of 10 o ' clock morning coffee; and LEN- NART SAXILD, Business Manager. After they had welcomed me most cordially, I was driven down the Milky Way, over Angel ' s Boulevard to Stardust Terrace, where I was shown to my apartment and met my new roommate, SARAH JEANNE LIKENS. Sally, as I had been accustomed to call her in her less famous days, was now starring opposite DONALD EMERY, a new male sensation just arrived from Earth last month, in that new Milky Way hit, How the Other Half Lives , or Life in the Lower Regions. That evening Sally had planned a party to celebrate my ar- rival, and I was ever so pleased to meet many of my old classmates. JOYCE LUCKETT, the dancing star of The Littlest Angel , directed by that invincible team of JENNEY and WALLACE and written by none other than those great composers, STACEY and OTIS, arrived in mink, no less. She was accompanied by her dancing partner, RUSSELL KIDD, and the production ' s singing stars, MARIE GAIGE and JAMES STEWART. JOAN LAMPASONA, famous designer for DAY, DAVIDSON, and Co., manufacturers of the latest in wings and halos, came with her chief sketchers, JANE SCHUELER, BAR- BARA EASTON, and MURIEL DOANE. BARBARA RESTALL and RICHARD DIVVER, leads in the current hit at the Angels Row The- ater, run by those Heaven-famous showmen, FULLER, FYFE, and FOSS, arrived quite late, just about in time for a nightcap of ADAM ' S Ambrosia, which beverage has made at least a million dollars for its originators, WALTER COFFIN and DAVID HASLAM. The even- ing was highly entertaining — ROLFE BARNES honored us by play- ing his latest concert composition, DONALD BOLAND brought along his beloved sax, and NANCY ROBINSON, that sulty new soloist singing at JOHN SMITH and DONALD RUSSELL ' S swank Starlight Roof, whispered several selections. The Cheerful Cherubs, a trio made up by SKIP WESTHAVER, ALAN TWITCHELL, and RICH- ARD CAREY, had us in convulsions with their rendition of How Low the Earth , NAOMI MAIHIOT ' S latest song hit. Naomi, incid- entally, has made quite a splash in the music world up here. DON CLAPP and his Rhythm Kings, Hot Lips ROONEY, Mellow SKEL- LEY, and LEM OAKES among them, have made her songs known from St. Peter ' s Gate to The Other One. A gentle hint was offered by the trio about one o ' clock by their melodious rendition of Good- night, Ladies , and the party broke up. We were awakened promptly at nine yesterday morning by our BARNOVITCH, Just-Turn-The-S witch alarm clock, and hurrying in- to our PHYLLIS ILSLEY robes, we sat down to a hearty breakfast of BENJAMIN ' S Frozen Orange Juice, ENO ' s nourishing Cloud Puffs (shot from guns), HENDERSON ' s sausages, and toast from our new no-plug toaster designed by that phenomenal inventor, OLIVER MORSE, in collaboration with his colleague, HARLAN WALKER, one of Heaven ' s most able chemists. We also had eggs straight from ROBERT LYNCH ' s deluxe dairy farm. Fido ate with us; his break- fast was a very unappetizing mixture of SAUNDER ' s Salmon Paste and JOHNSON ' s Joy Juice. While we breakfasted, we received the latest news bulletins from ED LEDERMAN, our on-the-spot commen- tator and also heard a bit of that popular daytime serial, Life with the JONESES by BOB and BARB. On picking up the morning paper, we were astonished to see the name of NANCY MOULTON splashed across the front page, but our fears were soon relieved by the captain beneath her picture. . . Daring Girl Swimmer Crosses Milky Way Safely . We also saw an article on our new mayor, DANA HENNIGAR, and what his plans were for our cloud (No. 4215) during his term in office. Among the appointments which he made were those of WEBSTER HERNE as Cloud Auditor, ORLAND COLBORNE and HERBERT SHIMMIN as Cloud Aldermen, ROBERT SEXTON as Cloud Safety Commissioner, and EDWARD GRADIJAN as Chief of the Atomic Energy Commis- sion. Turning to the entertainment pages, we saw news of several good shows in the offing — PAT CASEY was to be the dancing sen- sation of a new musical comedy written by JOHN HERRICK and starring ELEANOR McGONAGLE in the comic lead. There was also an announcement of the opening of the opera season at POLK ' s Op- era House. The first performance was to star JANET CONN, that talented young soprano, and STANLEY KOSKOWITZ, famous con- ductor. We saw an ad, too, for PORTELLE and SIGGINS, the great- est circus in Heaven. Sally remarked that I ought not to miss it, as I was sure to see many of my earth friends there: MARILYN KING and BETTY CUTHBERTSON in a breathtaking bareback act, ROLAND HONG and his sister, MABEL, in their death-defying trap- eze performance, GEORGE HUME and his murderous cats, ALBERT MARGESON and his unusual act, snapping pictures while strapped backwards to his speeding motorcycle. Here, too, I saw an ad for that huge ice extravaganza, Flashing Blades, produced by RICHARD COBLEIGH and featuring that darling of the silver blades, BETTY FRINK. In the sports pages, too, I found many evidences of old acquain- tances. There was an article by STANLEY FOSTER, manager of the Celestial Comets. Foster gave the inside story on some of his greatest basketball players, men like big WELLS WHITNEY, SWISH SKELLEY, who has retired from athletics to devote his tal- ents to his trombone, and Dancing DICK DONAGHY. Dick, by the way, also draws the paper ' s most popular comic strip, Dizzy, the Blue-Eyed Cherub. There was also a huge spread on our cloud ' s famous hockey team, the Heavenly Hustlers. The team had just won the alumni championship of the 49th district of Heaven, cap- tained by BOB MARSOLAIS, who, I was pleased to find, has writ- ten a book on his experiences both as a pro hockey player and as the Coach for Startmouth University. Other outstanding members of the team were ANDY CICORIA, the owner and male vocalist, of Club 51, where he serves the best pizza this side of earth; DICK LEE, currently starring in Best Wing Forward , STAN BARWISE ' s new- est production; HERKY KENNEFIC, star pitcher for the Cloud 4215 White Wings; DICK KELLEY, Chief of Staff of St. Mark ' s Hospital; and DON WHYNOT, Heaven ' s most celebrated and fiery lawyer. JOHN O ' CONNELL, player-manager of the team, had suggested to them the idea of playing one last game together, and they all drop- ped their various activities for one last fling at the game. Alumni games seem to have been the order of the day; millionaire playboy ROLAND HARRINGTON ' S current football team, managed by GUY STEVENS, played the team of which Roland once was a member, the Winged Warriors. Standouts who returned here for the game were RUSS BURGESS, one time All-Star Polisher, now football coach for Pearly Gates University; LEO COLBORNE, rival coach at St. Peter ' s College; OZZIE BOUTIN, Heaven ' s Clarence Demar; LEE GRAVES, owner of Heaven ' s largest chain of Flopkins restaurants; CHARLIE HOLDEN, president of Celestial Cadillac, Inc.; TOM HOLDEN, now highest paid player of WARREN HOPKINS ' White Wings; and PHIL SHERIDAN, co-owner of SHERIDAN and O ' BRIEN, bat manufactur- ers. The literary page boasted such names as those of MARION TUCKER, author of Taking Chemistry and Liking It ; FRANCES STUART, who created that all-time classic Ivy Covered Walls” on her experiences as a college professor; JUDITH WHITING, who cre- ated the lovable Abbie of Aunt Abbie ' s Kitchen ; eminent historian, JOHN LILLY, who wrote Our Cloud ; and IRENE WAGNER and her Hospital Beautiful . BARBARA MERRIFIELD ' S newest work, Dig- nity Day had just won the Howtizer prize, and NANCY JOHNSON ' S How to be Modest and Still be Popular had received the selection for Book-of-the-Month. Nancy is our cloud ' s most influential matron, president of such worthwhile societies as Help to Unemployed and Tarnished Stars and the Woman ' s Auxiliary Angels ' Aid Society . A new hit, just off the press and selling like stars on a clear night was PAT McLEOD ' S book on her trumpet playing entitled I Under- study For Gabriel ' ' . We next turned to the funnies for a glance 1 at two of Heaven ' s most popular comic strips, ' ' Helen, the Middle-Aged Harpist Who Found Happiness at 35 , drawn by DICK SOMMERFELT (who, by the way, has been seen a great deal lately with lovely ballerina PHYLLIS SPADAFORA), and Stanley, Star Star-Polisher created by BOB CROSBY and FRANK ALLISON. After finishing this very in- structive bit of our morning ' s education, we dashed to Sally ' s stu- dio. At Celestial Enterprises, I met JIM BROPHY, her producer; CON- STANCE HATHEWAY, her seamstress; and PHYLLIS DiBENEDETTO, her sweet and very competent secretary. As Sally had many ur- gent appointments, she suggested that I go down the street to ED EMERSON ' S Television Studio to observe a TV broadcast first hand. I was cordially welcomed at the door by CLIFFORD CEMPE, the genial assistant manager. He took me over to MARILYN TONKS, one of the business ' smartest young TV directors, who was supervis- ing a production sponsored by BAKER ' s Chocolate, BALLENTINE ' s Quails and BARNES ' Baked Beans. Beautiful HARRIET CLARK was the poised Mistress of Ceremonies, while DICK DAVIS acted as M. C. The hour featured such famous personalities as JACQUELYN EHLERT, singing several selections from her concert repertoire; BAR- BARA DEWAR with her trained horse, Suzie, and their roller skating act; JOYCE MEADER, who is now the owner of a beautiful estate ex- pressly for the purpose of housing Homeless Cherubs, and her part- ner, ANN TALIERI in a guest appearance doing their famous Charle- ston, the dance which made them a fortune in movies and television; and Dapper DAN LUCEY and his dancing partner, JUNE Mac- NEIL. It also featured great attractions like MARY POTTER singing a selection from her latest Follywood show; ROBERT WALKER, the Bob Hope of the clouds; and MARJORIE McLAUGHLIN and her Zany Xyliphone. SALLY WILCOX, still under contract to MGM (MacDON- ALD, GIBBONS, and MacDONALD), followed that progra m with a guest performance on the HARRIGAN Home Theater sponsored by GROVER ' s Guaranteed Groceries, FINNEGAN ' s Fish Emporium, and CARLENE EMERY ' s Non-Skid Emery Boards. After the show I met many of the men behind the scenes ; MORRISON and MARTIN, script writers; MASON, MOULAISON, MAZZA, and MATTON, sec- retaries to The Secretary; LOIS MITCHELL, The Secretary; JOHN MINOTT, ROBERT LYNN, ALBERT RICE, and DONALD SIBLEY, stage technicians. Some of the beautiful members of the program ' s dancing chorus were JUDITH STODDARD, JUDITH HAWKES, MARIE TANGUSSO, and JOAN TURNER, who, in her spare time wins med- als for her horsemanship at ROBICHAUD ' S Ring. About one o ' clock, I left the studio to meet my old sidekick, MA- RY HOPKINS, now a celebrated but caustic commentator and col- umnist, for lunch at ANN WIKSTROM ' s Kosy Korner. While we ate, Mary pointed out the celebrities around us: DOUGLAS WENT- WORTH, the ten-cent store tycoon; WHITEHEAD and WHITEHORN, famous attorneys; TOM WARREN, news correspondent; ROGER COGGER, celebrated drama and literary critic; REGINA GITTES, foremost among our civic leaders and one of our most educated mat- rons; AL GLOVER, Olympic track winner for the past ten years; JOHN REID, our cloud ' s ambassador to Cloud France; and RONALD PIKE, of Pike ' s Pickle fame. After lunch we made straight for the ALDRITCH-ANDERSON Memorial Art Gallery for an exhibition of the splendid paintings of that promising young artist, MARIE ROTONDI. We had been very fortunate in securing a ticket for me, as they had long been sold out; but ROBERTA CULVER, lead in the new C. E. SULLIVANS ' operetta That BARRETT Girl , had come down with a cold and so was un- able to use her ticket. While we were enjoying the exhibit, Lee was home in bed, guzzling NIX ' s Norange Juice, sucking on LEWIS LANE ' s Lozenges, using box upon box of WHEELER ' s Wheezex, and spooning in six tablespoons of CHESLEY ' s Cough Syrup every hour. While at the exhibit, we were fortunate to chat with JUDITH BOW- MAN, our young clouditory explorer, whose love of travel and lit- erary ability have resulted in a best seller entitled Intercloudular Relations As I See Them. At nine o ' clock sharp, after a nap at the apartment beforehand, I met Sally and our good friends, JANICE RIEDEL, president of the cloud ' s Good Will Agency; SHIRLEY MONEGAN, designer of that exclusive Ma Cherie line of jewelry; and YVONNE NICKERSON, known in all surrounding clouds as Heaven ' s best-dressed woman. We decided upon dinner and dancing with our escorts at ADRI- ENNE ' s. When we entered, we were greeted by ESTELLE RIZZO, the charming hostess, and seated by DAVID TUELL, headwaiter. The girls had especially wanted me to see Adrienne ' s because of its very original mural, the inspir ed work of LOUIS MARSOLINI, the Cloud ' s most celebrated artist, and the famous cookery of ROBERT SYLVES- TER, chef, and his culinary cohorts, CAROL SULLIVAN, VIRGINIA JACKMAN, JEANNE MONTGOMERY, and EMILY MILES. We arrived home last night just in time for JEAN WILSON ' S Winsomegal broadcast before hitting the hay. You can imagine the elation with which I awoke from a dream like the one I have just related. I had gone to bed three nights be- fore this masterpiece was due, barren of brain and more than a little worried. I drifted off to sleep, still struggling to find just one small shred of an idea that hadn ' t been seized and enslaved by some poor Prophet before me. Suddenly, there I was, in Heaven. When I a- woke in the morning, a bit exhausted by my travels I had the per- fect idea for my Prophesy. Thank heaven for dreams! Presentations of the Class of 1951 by Eleanor McGonagle (Enter carrying shopping bag and large umbrella. Look wildly through the audience and give an evident sigh of relief.) Whew! I see there are no cops in the crowd Which is a great relief. Or else my stay at Melrose High Would certainly be brief. For you see I have one habit Which the law just won ' t approve I enter shops, take what I like And then have need to move. Today I thought ' twas quite a haul I took in from the stores, But then I found to my dismay These packages were yours. For somewhere on these little gifts In letters bold and true, Were labeled names which were not mine But seemed to be for you. ANDY CICORIA and LOUIE MARSOLINI — (spaghetti) These two have always had one dream, To own a restaurant is their scheme. They ' ll serve spaghetti of which they can boast; They ' ll be nationally known from coast to coast. So, what shall we give them on this day, But a pack of spaghetti to start them on their way. BETTY FRINK — (miniature ice skates) Betty is a champion when it comes to skating; When she gets out of school this year, the Ice Cap- ades are waiting. Now may these skates improve your skill and many blessings shower, We give three cheers and wish success, to you in your shining hour. ESTELLE RIZZO, LEO COLBORNE, ELAINE GOULD, HERBERT AD- AMS, SALLY LIKINS, DONNIE EMERY, MARCIA BLACK and JIMMY BROPHY. — (glue) A familiar sight at M. H. S. I ' m sure you will agree Were these four charming couples Standing here with me. Let ' s give to them a little gift To make their romance stick I think you ' ll find this bit of glue Will prove to do the trick. SALLY WILCOX and BARBARA RESTALL — (lock and key) Where, oh where has Barbara gone? Oh where, oh where can she be? Sally is always asking this When Barbara she doesn ' t see. But now we have a solution So Barb will never stray. Sal, take this lock, and lock her up, Then throw the keys away. HERKY KENNEFIC — (pin-up picture) Herk , you are our pitcher great. On you we hung our baseball fate. Fast balls, slow balls were pitched by you, But you never had a curve like this on view! JANE DELANEY, YVONNE NICKERSON, and BARBARA DEWAR (magazines) Here are the models of our class, Our own perfection queens. To keep them always in the styles We give them FASHION Magazines. NANCY JOHNSON and TOMMY HOLDEN — (gold crowns) Here ' s an outstanding lad and lass, In popularity they lead the class; They ' re friendly ways and glowing smiles Will linger with all for quite awhile. We ' ll give you both these crowns of gold; The title of queen and king you ' ll hold. FRANK ALLISON — (Registry rule book) We hear you have a record Of accidents galore. Here ' s a little rule book, You ' d better study more. EDDIE LEDERMAN and OLIVER MORSE — (stilts) Four years have come and passed away, We watched you closely day by day. Although it seemed to be a cinch, You never visibly grew an inch. A pair of stilts today for you, To bring you higher into view. JOAN BOYLE — (toy bus) Joan, you always had a gang of people in your car, No matter where you were headed; be it near or far. Numbers made no difference; crowds brought little fuss. Yet, we think you would do better still, if you had a bus. DANA HENNIGAR, DANNY LUCEY, and BOB MARSOLAIS — (bob- by pins) You make all the girls very jealous With your wonderfully curly hair. Whenever we happen to pass you by,. We ' re certain to stop and stare. A card of bobby pins for you To use in future days, To help arrange those luscious curls In many different ways. RUSSELL BURGESS and MARY HOPKINS — (brushes) These two are always having spats; It ' s time they see the light. Brush away that dismal past, And make your future bright. KAY GIBBONS — (box of dates) We thought of all the angles In the choice of this little gift; We wanted something practical Which would offer you a lift. We could think of nothing better Nor more welcome to your sight, Than this box of tasty dates To keep you in delight. OZZIE BOUTIN, PHIL SHERIDAN, and JACK O ' BRIEN — (chairs) Ozzie ' s steps is their favorite hangout; You ' re certain to find them there. Just sitting around and talking — What they need is a comfortable chair. NAOMI MAIHOIT, MARILYN KING, ANN TALIERI, BARBARA RES- TALL — (candles) A cheery smile, a greeting gay, Is what these girls have brought our way. Lots of pep and very sweet Makes their description quite complete. These candles we offer Will help them, I know To be ever mindful Of their radiant glow. DICK LEE — (mirror) We voted you Best Looking Boy I say this with a sigh! Because there is no doubt at all, You are a handsome guy. Now take this little mirror, I ' m sure you will agree That the reflection staring back Is something nice to see. GWEN COLBURNE, VIRGINIA JACKMAN, ANN WIKSTROM, ETH- EL ROBICHAUD and FRANCES STUART — (bells) These girls are all so quiet. They never make a sound. Let ' s give to them some little bells To know when they ' re around. GUY STEVENS — (pillow) Your eyes just failed to stay open; Your head would nod and then sway; Each day when you came to your classroom, You slumbered the hours away. Now a pillow would have given great comfort; It ' s a shame you failed to see that. Then through the days, the months and years, The desk wouldn ' t seem so hard and flat. JUDY HAWKES, PHYLLIS ILLSLEY, and PAT CASEY — (whistles) Drumajorettes were these fair three; They led the band for you and me. In uniform of red and white, They certainly were a pleasant sight. With these whistles, we hope they ' ll find, They ' ll help bring back those wolves to mind. ALBERT MARGESON — (camera) Hold that pose , then, click goes the shutter; The picture is snapped before a word you can utter. To add to your collection of cameras so fine, We give you this miniature to better your line. JANICE RIEDEL and MURIEL DOANE — (maps) Every summer they go to the Vineyard, The minute the weather gets hot. Let ' s give them pictorial road maps, So they can find themselves a new spot. TOMMY HOLDEN, LEE GRAVES, ROLAND HARRINGTON, JACK SMITH, JIM BROPHY and DONNIE EMERY — (bottles of Pep- si-Cola) The Vinegar Hill Boys is quite a group to which one may belong Claim all these pals: Tom, Lee and Roland, Smit- ty , Nimy , and Don. To keep to a pattern, these should contain vinegar to the ounce, But instead they ' re filled with Pepsi-Cola, the drink that has more bounce. BETTY OTIS, VIRGINIA STACEY — (toy pianos) These two girls are a piano team, When it comes to music, they ' re on the beam. They swing it high and swing it low, They play it fast or play it slow. So don ' t you think it only fair, to give them on this day, Two small pianos that they may continue on their way. ROBERT DOAK WALKER — (ticket stubs) Whenever we saw you, we were certain to know, That you must be headed toward some Boston Show. These old ticket stubs will bring back a smile, Of the front row, orchestra and center aisle. ROLFE BARNES, REGINA GITTE S, BARBARA MERRIFIELD, BER- NARD CARPENTER, MARILYN TONKS — (report cards) Listen, my classmates, I ' d like to tell, Of these five students who did so well. They got all A ' s in all their work; Never an assignment did they shirk. But today there ' ll be some changes made, We ' ll give them D ' s for a different grade. HOYT SIGGINS, pONALD RUSSELL, ROBERT SEXTON, CHARLIE HOLDEN — (spark plugs) If your car ever has engine trouble And you know not what to do Just call for anyone of these boys And I ' m sure he ' ll fix it for you. They all know their auto mechanics; Not one job would they shirk To them we ' ll give some spark plugs To use in all their work. BOB MacDONALD — (pitch pipe) Bob is always singing, no matter where he ' s at. He always hits his high notes strong; he knows a sharp from flat. Now what could be more perfect than a pitch pipe on this day? That he may always be in tune, and keep his music gay? JOYCE LUCKETT — (rabbit ' s foot) A rabbit ' s foot is lucky, And Joyce is Lucky too. To remind you of your nickname, We ' ll give this one to you. DOROTHY GROVER, STANLEY BARWISE, ROBERTA CULVER, PHYLLIS DiBENEDETTO, and JEAN WILSON — (lemons) These are the red heads of the class. Their hair is really bright. Here, we have some lemons, In case they ' d like to make it light. BETTY CUTHBERTSON — (can of soup) For four years now, we ' ve seen you eat, And now we know your special treat. Soup is the dish you seem to prize So this can of Campbells should be no surprise! (BLOWING OF WHISTLE) It looks like they ' ve finally caught up with me, So don ' t mind if I have to run. Before I leave, I ' d like to say, Good luck to you, fifty-one. 1 ft BE us n ju 1C L 1 [ffl I lfjl Il r 1 1 B g% jy p f m yy , J; ' S| v JT u l ’ ' Jiafe g BN f V ' 4 fafljjf r w X rW ' Hy « X ' MSf’Wa % ■%., Wj n. ■ A f ;• VH i Au k | $25 ' . jaH v jjj; , y.ia?
