As we traveled the familiar walks and halls, we have gathered many unforgettable memories; these memories the LOG Staff has attempted to record by tracing our footsteps during the time we have spent at M.H.S., thus tracing also our hopes, our achievements, and our goals. The tread of our steps was not always the same, nor did they lead in the same direction; yet we all found our own place and left an impression in our own way. Looking back over these years, we are amazed at how quickly the days have passed. While still fondly remembering our wonderful days at Mel- rose High, we are taking a bigger and harder step than ive have yet taken. Let us hope the future brings as many happy memories as the past leaves with us.

It is an occasion which will offer you a chance to take a good look at where you are and whither you are going. You entered Melrose High School with high hopes and great ideals. How quickly you were caught up in the fast moving current of change! New forces were at work — changing curricula, changing programs, with new emphasis upon education and the pre- paration for your future. Your school was changing, growing in size, growing in oppor- tunities. Now at Commencement you find yourself thinking about it all and hoping the directions you have taken will lead to the success you desire. You are a part of your school. No matter where you may go — on to college, to special schools, to new experiences, you will have left something of yourself behind to be a part of this, your school. You go on from here with the prayers and hopes of your teachers and your friends who have all shared in guiding you along the way. It is our hope that the pathway ahead will be a little clearer and a bit more accessable because of what we have tried to do. 6 Never to be forgotten are the teachers Who guided our steps along the way.

Banks Mathematics Starting up the steps of Melrose High School in September, 1958, the class of 1962 felt the educational consequences of the Russian Sputnik the year before. Honors groups, advanced classes, and regular courses with new and deeper textbooks greeted us. For two years we elbowed our way through the crowded corridors trying to beat the four minute bell; for two years we endured the noise and inconvenience of con- struction machinery. But, in our junior year, the sixteen-room addition was ready for us. An art room, drafting rooms, classrooms with built-in movie screens, sound- proofing, movable desks all had a bright exciting atmosphere. This expansion, to- gether with bringing the glamour of the fresh new rooms, relieved us of the improvised study hall in the auditorium and the divided gym classes. Each year we had noticed more and more schoolmates; in fact, the enrollment had increased by 275 students since 1958! Arthur H.

Chase Physical Education, Girls’ Basketball and Softball Coach This spiraling increase in turn caused the 1961 innovation, the stationary schedule. By replacing our precious S blocks with another class, our homework load and our homeward load of books seemed much heavier. Far-away Freshman days had seemed so different from our hectic and eventful senior year! These four years, with such tremendous changes on both the inside and the outside of Melrose High School, had changed us too. The basic purpose of Melrose High School to provide each individual the max- imum opportunity for growth” underlies its diversification of curricula and courses. Working toward a goal of eighty points for graduation including four years of Eng- lish and physical education and one year each of mathematics, science, United States history and toward his own plans for the future, each student is free to choose his own program from four curricula and 107 courses after fulfilling the above basic requirements. I i Claude H. Croston Social Studies, Varsity T ennis Coach Antony DeTeso Social Studies, Foreign Affairs Club Adviser, Athletics John E. Driscoll Social Studies, Eloormaster, Athletics Charles Dullea English Noah Fieldman Science The General Curriculum presents a basic grounding in English and social studies with a wide range of electives including art, business subjects, electricity, auto mechan- ics, shop clothing, foods and nursing, as well as the languages and sciences offered in the College Preparatory Curriculum. This General Curriculum furnishes a balanced and practical educational training for high school students.” The Business Curriculum offers a thorough training in the skills needed in both the accounting and the secretarial positions of industry. Surrounding a nucleus of English and social studies are commercial mathematics courses including bookkeeping and a rigorous sequence of typewriting and stenography. This introduction to the mercantile world leads to either secretarial placement or continued study in a busi- ness college. Claire J. Hanson School Nurse, Nursing and Health William E.

Hildreth Head of Social Studies Department , F.T.A. Adviser Joseph D Hoague Director of Physical Education and Athletics, Varsity Football Coach The Alternate College Preparatory Curriculum prepares students for college with a greater variety of courses than the straight College Preparatory Curriculum offers. The choice of electives, which can run the gamut from salesmanship to Latin to phys- ics, is combined with definite requirements in English, mathematics, and social studies. This curriculum requires an additional year of study before a student can enter a four year college or may lead directly into junior college. The College Preparatory Curriculum is provided for students definitely intending to go on to college. Its requirements are stricter than those of the other curricula; foreign languages, sciences, mathematics, history, and English in larger amounts are required. Here the necessary mathematics courses are in four year sequences rather than in one year courses as in the other curricula. Marion E. Hume Commercial Geography and Typing John P. Killilea Science, Varsity Basketball Coach Alice C. Kramer Commercial Arithmetic, Filing, Office Procedures Alice L. Heald Modern Languages . Sophomore Class Adnser Anna Kelley Stenographer Helen G. Kershaw Head of Latin Department, Junior Classical League, Honor Society David I. Hoyle Chemistry. Faculty Manager Irene L. Ladd Typing. Business Arthmetic Iver Laine Elizabeth H. Lamb Director of Audio English Visual Aids, Audio Visual Club Oscar E. Larson Head Custodian Within the five language electives, sequences can be accelerated in Latin and French but not in the others. Also Melrose High provides four laboratory sciences: biology, chemistry, physics and physics II. In the final analysis, a student ' s college curriculum program can be determined by the requirements of college catalogs; all questions seem to be answered there! The guidance department with five counselors comes to the aid of the student in his original choice of a curriculum as well as in his later choice of particular courses. For junior and senior college-preparatory students the guidance office becomes head- quarters for information about the important college board tests, while it also keeps a large selection of college catalogs available and maintains folders on the opportunities in various vocations. Priscilla Levy Stenographer Flora Lutz Social Studies Donald J. Mack Mathematics Eric W. Mansur Head of Science Department Ruth Jane Musica School Nurse N. Yvonne Miche French James Morse English. Girls ' Cluh Adviser Ronald J. Musto English Warren F. Nash Head of Modern Language Department With all the current pressure on the college course students to score well on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, the junior year Scholastic Apitude Test, the senior year SAT and any necessary Achievement Tests, the English and Mathematics Departments have organized to face this challenge. Now juniors and seniors are drilled on test-taking techniques and alerted to unusual question format. They learn long lists of vocabulary words, cor- rect faulty sentences, solve the different types of math problems to learn their inherent idiosyncrasies. These students even spend their activity periods at special preparatory classes. Irving Nieman Mathematics. S.A.T. Office Evelyn L. Nelson Office Machines The preponderance of college-bound students at Melrose High School has brought new responsibilities to the administration. How to prepare them all while at the same time maintaining the quality that makes the curriculum truly college preparatory is the problem. Irene M. Fatten English Carolyn T. Pike Latin Kathleen M.

Simonds, III Sophomore Class Adviser Olga E, Sachs Home Economics Willard W. Robinson Art, IMPRINT Art Adviser In response, new areas of learning have been opened up through tape recordings, movies, television, and assemblies plus the already strong extra-curricular program of activities. The strength of the curricula here at Melrose High lies in the variety and depth of the courses offered. If a student’s interests lie in science there are eight science subjects and eleven mathematics courses in two sequences that he can elect. Equally strong are the language departments, Modern and Latin together, offering twenty-two courses in five languages — eight Latin; seven Lrench, three Spanish, two German, and two Russian. The reading skills mastered each year build up until a freshman taking his first glimpse of a subject can, four years later, be reading the great master- pieces of the tongue. Similarly, the variety of speech and reading classes is com- plemented by the depth of the compulsory composition and literature English courses. Paul N.

Another large department encountered by each stu- dent at least once is that of social studies. The core of ancient, modern, and United States histories is supplemented by contemporary civilization, psychology, civics, and geography. . While the Practical and Industrial Arts Departments teach the future craftsmen auto mechanics, drafting, woodworking, clothing, foods, and nursing in both beginning and advanced courses, the business department offers the secretaries typing, stenography, office machines, filing, bookkeeping, and specialized mathematics and geography. Art, available to all students regardless of class or curriculum, rounds out Melrose High School’s academic offerings. With so many courses to choose from, so many term papers to write, so many exams to pass, how could we help but be changed! Derick V. Willson Industrial Arts.

Log Work on the LOG began last Spring when the newly-elected editors met with Mr. Hanlon in Room 22 in brainstorming ses- sions to determine a theme for our yearbook. Having decided upon the idea of tracing our memories through our footsteps, and having formed tentative plans, the various staffs then began to create the final impression of our four years at Melrose High School. To the Literary and Art Staffs were assigned the important tasks of writing the innumerable profiles, copy and designing an appropriate and original cover, while to the Business and Advertising Staffs were given the equally ART STAFF First rou: D Sawler, B.

To further obtain funds, the entire Staff sponsored a colorful and successful Fall dance, which opened the Fall social season at M.H.S. Despite fewer available periods for staff work, the countless revisions were made, the deadlines were met, and gradually our year- book took form. Although each staff worked individually, the combined results of their efforts are presented here in the final cast of our footsteps — the 1962 LOG. BUSINESS STAFF First row: J. Worcester, J.

Our school newspaper not only brought items of interest to the attention of the student body with full and accurate coverage, but also offered the opportunity for advancement in writing and for exper- ience in journalism. In addition, all interested students gained practice in the mechanics of editing and financing a publication. In order to provide the school with a better newspaper, the IMPRINT under the direction of Mr. Chisholm and the Editorial Staff undertook many innovations besides its annual book fair and friendly rivalry with the LOG Staff. The Globe Press Conference attended by editors and reporters, the Spotlight On Sports column, and the sale of vocabulary flash cards were only a few of the new activities which rounded out a profitable and gratifying year for the IMPRINT. 22 IMPRINT REPORTERS AND ART STAFF M First row: W.

The wide range of activities determined by the interests of each member enabled the Science Club to round out another successful year. Science Club The Audio Visual Club, under the supervision of Mr. Iver Laine, contributed invaluable services to the faculty and to the students of Melrose High School. Its members ably assisted in school functions, such as assemblies and dances, in addi- tion to supervising the use of the films and tape recordings of our Audio-Visual Aids Library. The boys themselves received excellent training on the various ma- chines, while at the same time helping the teachers to direct our footsteps into the future with the most modern teaching aids and devices available.

The members assist Mrs. Rose in arranging displays, charg- ing out books, and straightening the shelves. These activities also fulfill the club’s second objective which is to teach the members the uses and sources of a library. Experience with reference works and library filing systems will benefit the mem- bers throughout their lives. The Library Club ended the year with a visit to a nearby museum. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Richard Hildreth, Miss Laura Blizzard, and Miss Eleanor Evans, the F.T.A. continued to instill an interest in teaching at the high school level. Headed by a group of excellent officers, this club viewed movies of good and bad teaching techniques, observed teachers, discussed teaching methods, and investigated requirements for colleges. Rounding out its activities for the year, the club presented its annual scholarship to a worthy member who will play a major role in the greater development of America — instructing the new gen- eration.

All are formed to allow those students who enjoy music to sing with others of similar interests. The Glee Club and its more exclusive cousin, the Ensemble, entertained at school assemblies including Thanks- giving, Christmas, Graduation, and Baccalaureate programs, and also were eagerly sought after by many civic groups. Annual and special presenta- tions of the Glee Club were the Christmas Vespers and the Operetta, for which the members worked diligently during their twice-weekly meetings. CHORALE First rout: N.

Forming the traditional big M” to the strains of the school song always climaxed a stirring half-time show as the Melrose High School Band continually outshone all other Mid- dlesex League bands with its excellent perform- ances this year. The creative imaginations and cooperation of its members, together with the capable supervision of its director Woodrow Phelan were evident in the band’s well-executed and widely diversified productions which pro- vided entertainment for everyone at the football games. Halftime Harmony Due to their outstanding musical talent, Cheryl and Donna Harlow were selected to play in the District Festival Orchestra, and Stanley VonEgmond and Jonathon Colby were chosen to represent M.H.S. in the District Festival Band. v W Fourth row: M.

In addition, several members received the distinction of being selected to participate in the District and All-State Con- certs. Marching in civic parades, taking its an- nual trip, and playing at graduation exercises completed another highly successful year for our accomplished and versatile concert-march- ing band. 33 First rou: R.

Led by President Mary Lord, the members have par- ticipated in tournaments at various colleges and in debates against other schools in the Greater-Boston Area. Faculty advisor Freeman T. Frank emphasizes train- ing in organization and clarity, reasoning and logic, use of proof and evidence, and great oratorical skill. In its second year, the Debate-Speech Club is a firmly estab- lished and welcome addition to Melrose High School. Foreign Affairs Club To keep the students informed and aware of the world situations is the key to the Foreign Affairs Club. Under the direction of Mr. De Teso and Mr. Coles, the causes and results of such vital issues as the Berlin crisis and the U. N. were in- vestigated on a higher level than in the classroom. A clearer picture of current problems was also presented through challenging speakers, panel discussions, and films. In these ways the members are taking a meaningful step towards interna- tional understanding. First rou : T. Hawes, L. Scarpa, L Lieberman, G. Giuesti, K. Hodgson, J. Martens, M. Welch, J.

Mr. Neiman with the assistance of four capable girls worked diligently throughout the year to provide the students of Melrose High School with a Student Activities Ticket. This ticket offered reduced rates on dances, football and basket- ball games, and various other student-sponsored programs. The S.A.T. office also handled efficiently the monetary affairs of many of the school’s clubs and organi- zations; a great benefit to the students and school alike. The Leaders’ Club and the Girls ' Athletic Association sponsored by the Wom- en’s Athletic Staff are concerned with promoting interest in physical education both in and out of class. The leaders, all seniors, perfect their leadership ability and ex- hibit their athletic skill by assisting and demonstrating in the gym classes. The G.A.A. introduced an individual achievement program whereby all girls have an opportunity to receive an award according to their level of participation in the various intramural sports. S.A.T.

COACHES Thumbs up” was the pre-season prediction for the M.H.S. Football team with its power-laden backfield of quarterback Dennis Cargill, half- backs Jim Umile and Billy Hardy, and versatile Captain Dave Reardon as fullback, but injuries held our hustling Raiders to a commendable record of five wins and four losses. On opening day, Coach Hoague’s eleven prevailed over Stoneham, but went on to fall before Lexington and Concord. After upsetting Bel- mont, the Red Raiders charged on through the Winchester opposition setting Mike Bellino and his Sach- ems back by a 24-22 count in a real seat-squirmer. Melrose then exacted vengeance from Reading — the only team to beat our boys the previous year, and suffered a setback by New- ton South. Head coach, Joseph D.

Wakefield took the Holleran trophy and the league title while Melrose tied for second place with Winchester. Several team members received All-Scholas- tic honorable mention for their fine play.

The Junior Varsity team continued its winning ways, losing only to arch- rival Beverly. Under next year’s Varsity Captain, junior Dave Smith, the M.H.S.

The M.H.S. 12 not only led the cheering but instilled school spirit and good sportsmanship in Melrose. To further back the teams these peppy girls, supervised by Miss Wheeler, also organized successful and surprise-filled pre-game rallies which included a visit from an unusual group of Win- chester cheerleaders and the presentation of a live Thanksgiving turkey to Dave Reardon. Their cries of victory resounded throughout the year on home ground, away, at sports award assemblies, and at the tournaments. For their loyal support and active promotion of school spirit M.H.S. joins in a big cheer for Nancy and her squad. 46 If they can’t do it, no one can! M A O R E T T E S N. Pike, F. Clifford, N.

Track- men Ralph Wilbur, Sandy Whittier, Bob Drake, Jack Glazebrook, and Don Bergstrom should be among the consistent point-getters again next year. The rugged M.H.S. Winter Track Team trained faithfully throughout the snowy, cold months and completed their season with a three wins — four losses record. Sparking the team were seniors Captain Bill Porter in the 1000-yard run, Carl Lanzilli in the 30- yard dash, Colin McClure in the 600, and Carl Aveni in the hurdles. m Rifle Club Front row: R.

A function of the club was the sponsorship of the Rifle Team which competed in the Middlesex Interscholastic Rifle League. Carrying on the Raider tradition, they rolled up an impressive record of five wins and three losses against such teams as Newton, Waltham, Watertown, and Malden. Paced by Norman Tompkins with an average of 175, the local sharpshooters prac- ticed at the Armory for their matches. Next year will see the return of several under- classmen forming the nucleus of another strong Raider squad. Ski Club Ski heil — down they go! A late but record snowfall this winter lent a perfect atmosphere for the activities of the Ski Club. Early in the season, tryouts were held at Mt. Hood with qualifying candidates becoming members. During the regular meetings films on skiing were shown, members explained ski terms, and Dodi von Velsen, our German foreign exchange student, told us about skiing in Europe.

Either way up high on the ropes or below on the mats, there was always plenty of ac- tion, suspense, and excitement as the M.H.S. gymnastics team in its first year of competition compiled a record of 1 win and 6 losses. With such out- standing seniors as Captain Bill George, Jim Rooney, and Dick Collins on the ropes, Tony Miller on the high bar, and Dave Connors on the par- allel bars, M.H.S. was always strong con- tention in this first year of competition against more ex- perienced teams. At the individual state championships at Andover, Melrose once again proved that it has an up-and-coming team. Supported by Dave Murphy in free exercise, Rus- sell Wallace on the high bar, side horse, and still rings, Bruce Campbell on the side horse, and many other promis- ing underclassmen, gymnastics should continue to grow in importance at Melrose High.

As 1 write this letter, a warmth comes over me as 1 think that the laugh of a German girl mingles among the thousands of other echoes in the halls of Melrose High. Thank-you — and 1 love you all.
