1947 Qflmni Published by the Class of 1947 Mt. St. Joseph Academy Rutland, Vermont THE MOUNT MOUNT SAINT JOSEPH ACADEMY 1947 VflluMir 9 Francis Donovan, Robert Higgins, Richard Perfetti, Eduor'in'Chief Business Maitagtrs JorLEUJOrl Now it remains for us, the class of 47, to inscribe in the space reserved for us in the Mt. St. Joseph annals, a record of the joys and cares which have alternately blessed and beset us in our four unforgettable years as Acads. Few, if any, of us will rise, in worldly eyes, to a pinnacle of fame and prosperity. However, in whatever walk of life we may trudge, the heaven-sent teachings of our devoted Priests and Sisters will glitter like an omnipotent beacon through the fog of modern heresy and growing lust for secular acclaim at the senseless exclusion of things spiritual. We who have been taught God’s laws of obedience, service to Him and to our fellow-men, and not to judge a man by the tint of his skin, but by his heart, leave this radiant heritage to those who follow us, even as we have benefited by that which was given us by those who preceded our class. LA delica Hon With solemn forethought and sincere appreciation, these recollections of the Class of 47 are humbly dedicated to the Silent Partners in our search for true happiness—our Parents and our Faculty. Shunting themselves to the background, far removed from the fanfare of worldly recognition, they have worked ceaselessly to mold our characters in conformance with the will of God, which they understand so well. How anyone could bear up under the trials and ingratitude which we have inadvertently showered upon them is, to us, another miracle attributable to the Divine Saviour. May the following pages emblazoned with our efforts reflect our eternal indebtedness to them. (Al J.-jIc) Richard Pcrfctti, EJiterm-Qiief. (Sealed) Mary T. Ryan, Mary Salerni.

The members of the '47 Mount staff grasp this opportunity to present the eighth edition of the Academy Annual to their critics and well-wishers with the sincere hope that it may satisfy the literary palates of those who scan its pages. Richard Perfetti, EJitor'iirCliiif. The generosity of our advertisers has made it possible lor the Class of 1947 to publish another Academy yearbook. !Bocnd The faculty and senior class unite with the Mount Business Board in expressing their gratitude to these benefactors in Rutland and elsewhere.

St. Joseph—tomorrow, young adults, you step out into life in real earnest. There will be joyous days among those tomorrows, but there will also be monotonous days filled with the ordinary responsibilities of life. Fulfill these duties well, and in a manner befitting Chris' tian young men and women, whose actions arc inspired by a double love, which embraces the service of God and of neighbor. Thus, e’en though your lives be hidden, even obscure, you will have brought yourselves, and the world “closer to God,’’ and have made the latter a better place in which to live. May God bless you of ’47! Father Fitzsimons Ri i ju i� Gnui.n Bi.cki.ey Reverim' Michael Demasi RemEND JoStPMI Carrigax Reverend Raymond Cronan Sm ia CoiRiTi.

VALEDICTORIAN S ALUT AT OR I AN Bin ARi Gouchoe Cur i m i Lawrence PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS As we arc assembled here this evening to present our Class Night pro- gram we realize all too keenly that graduation, to which we have looked forward during four happy years is now about to become a reality. In the glow of excitement we find our anticipated joy more than slightly tinged with an unbidden mingling of the sadness which is ever present at commencement exercises. Memories arise that will never be effaced, as we recall the anxieties and joys which have crowded every precious moment of our high school days at the Mount. We can not help but reflect, especially, upon the loving interest and encouragement shown to us by our Reverend Principal and our teachers in the daily problems of our school life, and the invaluable aid so generously afforded us by our parents and our priests. We arc aware that the combination of these forces has ever tended toward our happiness, both temporal and eternal, beyond our fondest expectation. It has been pleasant to be so closely associated in study and in recreation with classmates and teachers with whom we have formed a lasting friendship. This is without doubt one of the most cherished joys of our four, unforgettable years at Mt. St. Joseph Academy. May our lives always reflect credit on the school we love so well, and on those who are so largely responsible for the many privileges that we enjoyed at the Mount.

Jbong Words and Music In' Patricia Hurley Twas only four short years ago That we first came the “Mount” to know, And now the time is drawing nigh For us to bid a fond goodbye. We’ve worked and played, watched and planned, Under vour helpful, guiding hand; To ever be faithful, M. S. J., to you. Is our motto,, sincere and true. Cliorus We’ll put our best foot forward as we go Because, Mount St. Joseph, we want you to know That through your teachings, old and new We have always found what’s good and true; We will use this knowledge, M. S. J., And remember you with each passing day. Mary Dianm Abatieli.

These courageous pupils, though long physically absent from our midst, have never left our memory . . . not for an instant. No, they’re not world- beaters to be sure; but who can discount a pair of kids with broad, genial grins, and ever-readv helping hands from their share of happiness? I he bright lassie with the gleaming eyes goes by the name of Rose Marv Adams. Rose Mary, small of stature, packs more than her share of vitality into that slight frame, as any of her classmates will testify. Having departed from the Mount at the close of her junior year because of a spinal con- dition, Rose Mary entertains hopes of permanent recovery soon, and of returning to Academy life, to which we can only say “the sooner the better.” Blonde, azure-eyed Ray Hutchins now claims Massachu- setts General Hospital as his temporary residence. During his all too brief sojourn at the Mount, likeable Ray endeared him- self to all of us. Possessed with better than six feet of height, and a seldom-equalled sense of humor, Ray kept his classmates from the gloom which settles over the best of students at periodic intervals, with his laugh-provoking cracks. A typical Academy saying goes, “Oh what I’d give for a bull session with ‘Hutch’. Our “bestest” to Rose Mary and to Ray! (Dat SznLox ( JJsax In keeping with Academy tradition we began our last year at the Mount by attending Holv Mass and dedicating ourselves and our work to Our Blessed Mother. We then made our way to the Academy where we were greeted by Reverend Father Fitzsimor.s who had been appointed Principal of the Mount. The happy and friendly associations that we have had with Father will always be a cherished memorv of our senior vear. Chosen to guide the destinies ot the senior class were Bernard Gouchoe, President; Evelyn Costello, Vice President; Stella Cotrupi. Secretary; and Richard Perfctti, Treasurer. Cur Student Council had among its number, Claire Kelly, Joan Daley, Mary Jane Dufly, Mary Salerni. Lorraine Stewart, Rita Ward, Arthur Courcelle. Howard Gilbert. Thomas Alberico, Thomas Dunn, John DiPalma and Roy Rotella. We were happy to welcome again to our ranks Edward Carroll. Roy Rotella, John Adams, Eugene Roussil, David Lester, Thomas Dunn, Donald Mangan. Robert Anoe and George Bierwirth, who resumed their high school courses which were interrupted bv the call to service of their country. Work on the Clarion,” our school paper, began in October with Evelvn Costello, as Editorin-Chief, and Charlotte Bresnehan and Arthur Courcelle, as Co-Business Managers. On October 16 our annual retreat opened. Reverend Anthony McCuc conducted the three day spiritual exercises. In October also the freshmen were formally welcomed by the Academy upperclassmen. Due to the efficient efforts of the Student Council, assisted by the senior class officers, the initiation ceremony was a real success. A long cherished hope of many Commercial students was realized in the organization of a Commerce Club. Stella Cotrupi was elected president; Lorraine Stewart, vice president; Rita Ward, secretary; and Patricia Creed, treasurer. The highlight of the club activities was the play Gerry” which was presented for the student body and parents of the members of the cast. Our annual minstrel show Snap It Up” was presented November 26-28. Capacity audiences applauded the performances of End Men, Joseph Costello, Roy Rotella. Thomas Dunn, Eugene Roussil, Alphonse Cioffi, Anthony Mig- loric; Interlocutor, Howard Gilbert; and a talented chorus. The Academv gndsters won the city and state championship. Comprised of Co-captains Thomas Alberico and Frank Cioffi. Paul Mangan, Art Napoli- tano, Edward Sullivan, Ettore Valeroli, Roy Rotella, Henry DelBianco, Eugene Roussil, Anthony Miglorie and Alphonse Cioffi. the team ended the season with an unbeaten record. In February we began work on our yearbook, The Mount.” Richard Pcrfetti was appointed Editor-m-Chicf. with Francis Donovan and Robert Higgins as Co-Business Managers. Our congratulations were extended to Bernard Gouchoe, named vale- dictorian. and Geraldine Lawrence, salutatorian of the class for their high scholastic standing for four years of high school. On May 1 we took part in the annual procession in honor of Our Blessed Mother and on May 4 the Senior girls were guests of the Alumnae Association at the May Breakfast. Seniors who took part in the All State Chorus held in Burlington May 8, 9 and 10 were Evelyn Costello, Barbara Duprey, Delores Ross; in the All State Band were Barbara Lipp. Edward St. Peter and Isabella Pandozzi. Other senior players were Rose Marie Rousseau, Grace Delctoso and Suzanne Gaucher. Five members of the Senior Class were graduated from the Music De- partment: Lois Baker, Barbara Duprey, Patricia Hurley, Delores Ross and Joan Valente. Our annual Senior Retreat was held May 27-29. The first of June found us looking forward expectantly to our graduation. Senior Week activities included the Senior Ball, the class picnic at Lake St. Catherine. Graduation day opened with Mass in the school chapel followed by a class breakfast in the school dining hall. Commencement Exercises were held Friday. June 1 3, at Rutland Memorial Armory. Thus ends the history of our four years at the Academy. We will be strengthened and encouraged through the years, as we recall the happiness and privileges that have been ours at the Mount. We express our gratitude to Reverend Father Fitzsimons, to our Sister teachers, to Coach Branon and Coach Somma for all that they have done for us Rita Ward, Historian.

St. Joseph. Each of the four years of high school was filled with happy associations, but our senior year was the best of all. Among the highlights were: Our “chats” at the noon gatherings near the corner-store. The shivering and shaking, as we received our report cards! Our delight when Buddy Gouchoe was chosen president of our class. The long “trail” to the wastebasket to deposit “forbidden” gum. The terror of the Freshmen, as we put them through their “stunts.” Snowballing “penalties” courageously but “impatiently” endured. The Gilbert and Sullivan “line” of excuses to avoid detention. Gene Roussil’s whistle or song through the corridors. Tommy Alberico’s vain attempt to get a “hearing” in English class. The study hall “torture-chamber” on examination day. Chemistry lab surprises, odors, and explosions. “Singing in the Rain” during the May Procession. Dick Pcrfetti’s “scouting” for money for yearbook covers. The good times we had at the C. Y. O. The splendid work done by our classy majorettes and cheerleaders. Claire Kelley's surprise when Roy Rotella announced that he was going to the seminary. Our flashy, top-notch M. S. J. Band. M. S. J.’s winning the city and state football championship. Dominic Caliguire directing McNamara’s band. Lorraine Stewart’s pepsodent smile. The merry chatter of our Spanish girls from South America. Jimmy Magner’s difficulty in keeping his wit under control. Hank Battles’ last unfortunate snowball! Our bus ride to the Springfield game at Windsor to help M. S. J. gain a berth in the tourney. Trips to the office for one of those “rainbow colored” ties, when we failed to wear one of our own. The rush for the “Hurley and LeFevre” taxis at dismissal. All the activities of senior week. Best of all—our happy relations with Father Fitzsimons, with our Sisters, with Coach Branon and Coach Somma.

Besides per- forming at the annual school {unctions, at gridiron and hoop contests, and the May Procession, this musically minded group of Academy instrumentalists manifested their ability before crowds at Port Henry, N. Y., the Army Week Exercises, Patrol Boys' Convention, May'Festival, Assumption Day Program, and Governor’s Day, an annual fixture at the Rutland State Fair. In addition, the note playing assemblage, aided and abetted by a sparkling array of major- ettes, headlined by Doreen MeDevitt, paraded their skill at the official open- ing of Rutland’s new Armory, and at the third degree festivities sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. Again they tooted their melodies in participating in the roof-raising send-off accorded the R. H. S. basketball champions.

Seniors, Tommy Alberico and Frank Cioffi, co-captained the Mounties through the most successful campaign in the Academy's grid history. The larger part of that success was due to the untiring efforts of “Coacn of the Year,” Barry Branon. and his capable assistant, Sal Somma. The Big Green Wave gained state-wide recognition in their initial grid- iron battle as they turned back a scrappy Montpelier combine to the tune of 33 to 0. It was the Mountie line which was outstanding throughout the contest—continuously tearing yawning gaps in the Solon forward wall and breaking through to stop plays before they could get started, with the result that the men from the Capitol City were able to gain but 15 yards rushing. Something of an oddity occurred the following week, as the Big Green Wave bowled over a West Rutland-Fair Haven combination, playing alternate quarters, by a 27 to 0 verdict. That the Mountie attack was equally effective against both teams is shown in the division of the scoring—14 points against West Rutland and 13 against Fair Haven. In the next contest the Acads played host to a reputedly strong Bellows Falls squad. The Purple and White battled the Wave on almost even terms during the first half, but in the next session the paper city force fell victim to a Cioffi-Alberico attack, which netted the Acads 20 points and a 26 to 7 victory. The Mountics next traveled to Barre to take on a high-flying Spaulding eleven. For three periods the Acads battled the all-out-defense of the Crimson Tide without scoring. Finally, with three minutes remaining the granite-like Barre forward wall crumpled under a terrific onslaught, and Migloric poured through for the only touchdown of the afternoon. Miglorie hit center again for the extra point and the Wave sailed on to another victory. 7 to 0. In the first quarter of this contest Hank Battles, the Acad s stellar guard suffered a broken ankle, and was forced to the sidelines for the remainder of the season. On the following Saturday the Branonmen played host to a powerful Springfield team. After being completely out-played throughout the first half, the Acads came back with a never-say-die attitude and succeeded in routing the Machinc-towners by a 20 to 2 decision. After a two weeks’ rest, the Wave journeyed to St. Albans to battle the Marvmcn on a cold, wet Saturday. Because of weather conditions, the Mounties’ ground and aerial attacks bogged down continuously, but flashing championship form in a well-balanced attack, they won easily, 16-6. It was a confident well-drilled Academy machine that invaded Rutland High School’s rain-drenched gridiron on November 11 for the traditional Armistice Day classic. Twelve previous years Academy teams had attempted to gain a decision from their city rivals, and twelve years they had failed! But, this year was different, the Acads were undefeated they were superior and now they were going to prove it. The whistle blew, getting underway the all-important event. The Red- men received and after a series of plays were forced to nunt. The muddy pigskin carried to the Green Wave five, where it proceeded to slither through the out-stretched arms of “Fundsie” Cioffi, and was quickly pounced upon by a Rutland warrior. Three plays later the Raiders hit pay-dirt, but were stopped cold on their conversion try. But their good fortune was short-lived, for soon after the commencement of the second quarter signal-caller Cioffi caught a punt on the Wave 45 and behind superb blocking sped 55 yards across the Flaitzmen’s goal line. The conversion try was missed, knotting the count at 6 all. Sparse moments later this same Cioffi fully atoned for his earlier misdemeanor, as he again crossed the coveted Raider goal line on an end sweep from the enemy’s 10, where Tony Miglorie had shortly before deposited the pigskin on a series of line plunges. The touchdown terminated the scoring for the afternoon, and the Mounties had gained their first decision over a Rutland aggregation bv a verdict of 12 to 6. Not even the elements could dampen the spirits of the Academy’s rain- riddled rooters as they trekked homeward to the tune of the Victory March with the city and state championships safely tucked away. Highlights of the ’46 Football Season: 1. Fundsie Cioffi, Tonv Migloric, Tom Alberico, Ettorc Vallcroli and Frank Cioffi, were picked for the All-State Team. 2. M. S. J. broke Rutland High School’s 13 year old “psychological jinx.’’ 3. M. S. J. won its hrst city and state football championships.

Getting oft to a slow start, the Acads lost to Randolph, 36-32, only to rebound in contests in the north, in which they won over St. Mary’s and Bellows Free Academy of St. Albans by 49-36 and 45-18 tallies. A week later, Burlington’s Memorial Auditorium became the site of Mt. St. Joseph’s second defeat; a 40-25 pasting meted out bv Cathedral. Returning home, the Branonmen were drowned in the offensive deluge powerhoused by Curtis High, of Staten Island, as the New Yorkers buried the Parochials, 63-26. Taking to the slats against a star-studded Alumni squad which numbered Lou Pokwryka, Bill and Joe Lovett, Raymond “Babe’’ Spoon, Johnny Hackctt, and Jack Daley among its starters, the Big Green pegged its way to an early lead, and staving oft a last minute surge by the collegians, racked up a 30-27 decision. The ancient rivalry between R. H. S. and the Green Wave provided the lid-opener for the Southern Vermont league campaign. “Bundsie” Keefe’s veteran array smashed an ineffectual, fighting quintet of Mounties, 38-18. Springfield’s Cosmopolitans presented themselves at the high school gymnasium for the second league tilt, and bowed to an improved Green and White contingent, 30-22. Encouraged by their “upset” victory over the Birskymen, the Acads punched out successive wins over Hartford, Brattleboro and Bellows Falls. Besting the Midgets from White River Junction at Hartford, 35-24, the Green Hurricane snatched a thriller from Brattleboro's “never-say-die” Organgrindcrs, 38-37 on the home boards. Bellows Falls' Purple Five braved the raging elements to provide M. S. J with its largest score of the year as the high-riding Branonmen swamped the Schneidermen, 55-31. It remained for Frank Hinchey’s Golden clan from West Rutland to halt the new second-place Green Tornado. The Marble-towners spilled the Parochials in as thrilling a contest as could be conjured up, 27-26. The pro- longed win-streak of the Academy stalwarts seemed to be in the process of rapid degeneration, when Andy Natowick’s Blue and White Bratts spanked the Mount, bv coming from behind to take a 33-29 victory. Hartford’s gallant Midgets were definitely out to make life miserable for Mt. St. Joseph followers, as Lou Sacco and ex-service man Connolly took advantage of the Bie Green’s multiple miscues to squeeze out an 11-9 halftime vantage. Shaking them loose from their basket shyness, the tirading Saints, with “Quisty” Acquistapace and “Mickey” Kelly bellowing the Mounties inferno, swept the Sacco-gang oft their feet with a stunning 44-24 win. Springfield’s Cosmopolitans tasted the fruits of vengeance, the following Friday as they built up a tremendous first half lead and coasted in to a 35-22 decision over the Saints. Assistant Coach Sal Somrna took over the reins for Mr. Branon, who was ill at the time that the Green and White staked a daring claim to a victory over the undefeated Red Raiders in the second meeting of the two clubs. Trailing 18-10 at the 16 minute mark, the “Somma-men” opened the scoring throttle and whittled the Crimson vantage to 27-25 at the official time out in the final canto. Setting up a “freeze” situation, the Red and White stalled the Green Wave for the remainder of the evening and trouped off the boards as victors by 32-28. Frank Hinchey’s “Giant-killing” quintet became the second team in a row to stop the ailing Acads as “Johnny Bloomer and Co.” stepped out of their Mountie-dug grave and rushed the Acads fiercely in grabbing a 36-33 decision from the Parochials. Captain “Tink Tinker” brought his Windsor cohorts to Rutland and proceeded to dish out a third successive beating to the Saints, 51-41. Mickey Kelly played a fast-stepping tune on the snowy strings by dunking 20 counters for the Parochial cause. Mount St. Joseph made Bellows Falls the scene of a gallant comeback, as they downed the pride of the Paper City, 35-26, and in an exhibition which many considered the finest brand of basketball demonstrated by the Big Green Barry Branon’s Cinderella crew startled Leonard Pierce’s Windsor gang, and notched a 51 '39 victory in the process. Don Maley’s Northern Kings then met their Waterloo as M. S. J.’s vengeance-seeking crew, paced by Mickey Kelly’s 23 markers, trampled the Catncdral five, 46-37. Vermont’s Headmaster’s Committee decreed a play-off lor the “Nebraska boys’’ with Boleslof “Bobo” Birsky’s Machinetowners as opponents, and Windsor’s gleaming surface as the site. The eager Cosmos ambled oft to an early lead, which grew to immense proportions as the game progressed. Enter- ing the deciding period under a 7-point handicap the vengeful Green Tornado stirred up a raging, swirling oftense into a point getting hoop machine and succeeded in deadlocking the debacle at 34-34. as Father Time ticked oft the closing seconds of the last session. Sparked by diminutive Barrie Byrne, the Green Wavers retained their blistering pace and brought home an oversize slab of the proverbial “bacon” in the form of a 39-36 decision. Brattleboro provided the opposition for the Acads in the quarter-final round of A” tournament warfare. Barry Branon dug deep into his “bag of tournament tricks’’ and produced a sizzling dead-shooting aggregation that shellacked a surprisingly ineffective Azure and White clan 48-28. Rutland High’s championship-bound Keefemen applied the skids under a 5 game Big Green victory streak in Friday night’s semi-final tilt as the Ferraro-sparked quintet toppled the Green and White Saints, 48-31. While the Mounties can not boast of a brilliant hoop season, they can take pride in the fact that they were always considered a dangerous ball club, and with reason. Rutland's Red Raiders can testify to this statement as they were undoubtedly more wary of the Big Green than of any other team. The most encouraging fact concerning the ‘46-'47 hoopsters of the Academy is the fact that 10 varsity members will present themselves for action in the '47-’48 campaign. Mickey Kelly, “Funzie Cioffi and Barrie Bvrne reaped the scoring laurels for the 13-11 season. Credit is due to Coach Barry Branon for his skillful tutoring of a slow- starting crew, which he molded into a unit capable of a tournament berth. BaMt First row; Dick Flynn.

Eager to impress their newly-appointed tutor, Coach Sal Somma, seventy hustling Green Wave youngsters braved the chilling pre-spring snap to present themselves before their popular mentor in the dawn of the 1947 baseball campaign. Using a series of gruelling practice sessions as a criterion for his final decision, Coach Somma entered heartily into his tedious task. Capable veterans such as Stan Kantorski, dependable backstop, Dick Flynn, star hurlcr, Mickey Kelly, crisp-batting shortstop, Tommy Albcrico, hot-corner defender “Hank’’ Battles, converted catcher, now holding down the initial sack, and Angelo DiPalma, “Red” DelBianco and “Funzic” Cioffi, who also does an occasional turn on the twirling slab, as garden guardians form a smooth-working nucleus, into which Mr. Somma injected freshman “Red” Orzel in the keystone position, to complete his diamond picture. With “Funzic” Cioffi twirling victories in both debacles, the Acads annexed the highly-coveted City Crown by wresting 5-1 and 8-0 decisions from the Lloyd Flaitz Red Raiders. Looking ahead with eyes that see “victory’’ tacked after each diamond battle, Sal Somma smiles optimistically and says, “We have a good club. Need I say more?” SCHEDULE April 19 Mt.
