Text from Pages 1 - 150 of the 1953 volume:

5 11 th c • cuiors The Class of 56 wishes to thank you, the Seniors, for your kind and helpful attitude to us as freshmen. Although the school was new to us when we arrived, the graduating class made us feel as if we were a real part of it. Now that you are leaving, we wish you success in whatever you may attempt. James Stack, President Patricia LaFratta, Vice-President Patricia Joyce, Secretary-Treasurer The Senior Class has been a very helpful class to all the other classes and to our school. Their assistance during the year has made this a most successful year. So, to you who graduate this year we would like to say - Thank You! Albert Kandarian, President Carol Johnson, Vice-President Barbara Highling, Secretary Roger Carriere, Treasurer The Sophomore Class of 55 wishes to offer their congratulations to the graduating class of 1953. Al- though the thought of yom leaving N.A.H.S. brings sadness to us, the knowledge that you have achieved success in your journey through high school en- courages us to follow your good example. All Good Wishes! Ray Charron, President Faye Germaine, Vice-President June Mayer! ' Secretary Donald Betts, Treasurer As President of the Class of ' 53 , I should like to express, on behalf of the class, our sincere thanks to all of the underclassmen who have contributed in one way or another, to make our four-year stay at North High the big success that it has been. Also to the faculty goes our appreciation for the help they have given us. And, to Mr. Regan, many thanks for the understanding and assistance that he has shown us as our principal. Although our four years at North High are at an end, we should like to leave behind this one thought, that others may realize: In youth we learn; in age we understand. Richard Langille To you, the members of the Class of 1953, goes much credit for your cooperation with the Red Cap staff this year. When an issue was about to come out, the Senior homerooms were always practically 100% in orders. This brought much satisfaction to us for we knew that the Seniors were with us. We know that you were not always thoroughly satisfied with each issue, bu t common sense says that we couldn ' t give everyone what he wanted. As you turn the pages of this Red Cap in years to come, we hope that you will enjoy reading it as much as you do now. Thanks again for your unfailing cooperation. Sincerely, Harry Pollock Muriel Valley Co-Editors “Sn pouti) toe learn: 3n age toe unbersitanti.” The Red Cap dr’a e 1 FRESHMAN YEAR September 1949 we entered N.A.H.S. with the con- fidence and determination that our class would excel all previous classes scholastically, athletically, and socially. Our jumbled mass soon unified into a cooperative well-organized group. Because Dick Langille pos- sessed outstanding characteristics as a leader we selected him as our first Class President. Helping him were Sheila Maloney, Vice President; Sue Herman, Secretary; Mary Beach, Treasurer. Performing like Seasoned Sophomores on the gridiron were Doug Spencer, Clark Gay, Bob Achin, and Dick Langille. The class of ' 53 proved to be athletically inclined, for the group known as the Bombers consisting of Chet Roberts, Scud Schofield, Doug Spencer, Charles Fied, Lloyd Collins, Clark Gay, Dick Langille, Danny Murphy, and Kent McMorrow drove the opposition wild. On the diamond were Kent McMorrow, Danny Murphy, Dick Langille, Charles Feid, and Merrill Legg. Representing the girls basketball team were our dexterous athletes Cally Yates and Sylvia Witschi. SOPHOMORE YEAR We started our Sophomore year eager to maintain the precedents we had previously established. To do this we decided to re-elect Dick Langille, President, assisted by Sue Horman, Vice President; Sue Morse, Secretary, and Clark Gay, Treasruer. With experience and know-how, our boys, Louie Germaine, Kent McMorrow, Dick Langille, Clark Gay, Bob Achin, Walter Edwards, Doug Spencer, Bob Wilson started to show that they possessed the qualities of Red Grange, and Jim Thorpe. Cally Yates, Elaine Lacasse, Sue Morse, Joan Stack, Sue Horman, and Lane Nimmo proved to be assets on this girls basketball squad. This year the group known as The Minute Men highlighted their careers as sophomores with many surprising wins over much bigger and taller foes. These were Danny Murphy, Chuck Fied, Kent Mc- Morrow, Clark Gay, Dick Langille, Bob Achin, Lloyd Collins, Louie Germaine, Chet Roberts, Paul Robi- taille. Danny, Kent, Lloyd, Norman Deschenes, and Chuck represented us well on the baseball diamond. Seeing that we had an ability for selling cakes, we decided to hold another cake sale. This turned out to be a whopping success as usual. Our first and long awaited social which was the Holiday Highlight Dance was well attended. Another popular discovery was our Sadie Haw- kins Dance , which proved to be a great success. Could it be because the girls did all the asking? So ended our Sophomore year. At least we could look forward to being upperclassmen next year. JUNIOR YEAR We never really seemed to be underclassmen, but we felt the customary thrill in oru junior year when we were recognized as upperclassmen. We were just nearing the peak of our years at high school when we turned out events that bug-eyed even the Superior Seniors. To do this, we elected: Dick Langille, President; Sue Horman, Vice President; Kent McMorrow, Treasurer; Muriel Valley, Secretary. On the gridiron the incomparable men of the Junior Class were: Doug Spencer, Clark Gay, Walter Edwards, Kent McMorrow, Lloyd Collins, Dick Lan- gille, and Bob Achin. On the basketball court we had Charlie Feid, Danny Murphy, Kent McMorrow, Clark Gay, and Dick Langille. We were proud to have some of our Juniors play- ing in the Major Leagues of the high school. They were: Kent McMorrow, Danny Murphy, Charlie Feid, and Lloyd Collins. This year, a third and equally profitable cake sale was held. Because our first Sadie Hawkins Dance was so favorably accepted, we presented another dance of this type. This was another success of the Junior Class. The Big Day — January 28, 1952 had finally come. We had waited impatiently for some time to be able to show off our unique rings to the envious student body, and now we could. The Seniors with their senior play had nothing on us, for oiu Junior Variety Show was a great hit. The gala activity of the year was our extraordinary prom with its widely colored decorations. This was our big dance of the year and it was a hit. 2 The Red Cap To finish the year, we had a class outing at Craig- ville Beach on the Cape which was attended by all. Many came back with burned backs. SENIOR YEAR We had arrived!!! Here we were at our Senior Year. We were now the best class this school could offer. To lead us for this important year we again chose Dick Langille, President for the fourth consecu- tive year. Helping him were Cally Yates, Vice Presi- dent; Lloyd Collins, Treasurer, and Sue Horman, Secretary. After Thanksgiving we were all very proud of our undefeated team. We were happy to think it took our Senior Class and the help of the others to make it an undefeated team since ????. To crown a glorious football season these seniors, led by Clark Gay and Frank Gookin, Jr., as co-captains, made it possible for our perfect season: Dick Langille, Lloyd Collins, Bob Achin, Kent McMorrow, Doug Spencer, and Chuck Feid. They proved to be the difference between suc- cess and defeat in handing Attleboro its first loss in five years in this annual event. The senior girls that wound up their successful careers in basketball were Joan Stack, Marilyn Up- ham, Lucille Clavette, Sue Horman, Capt., and, Reba Nisbet. The boys ' basketball team was also without peer in continuing the reputation set out for them by our football team, for Chuck, Kent, Lloyd, and Chet car- ried the team into a first place tie in the Hockamock League. For the first time in the history of the school our team entered the South Shore Tourney and got as far as the Semi-Finals. We are very proud of the athletes in our class. We would like to congratulate them on their fine work. On the diamond, Danny Murphy, who is Co-Capt. of the team, and Chuck Feid will probably help cap- ture the Hockamock League for our final triumph on the sport ' s scene. At least we hope so, but no one can predict the future. Footloose our senior play, proved to be star studded with talent. Gerald McLean, Betty Lewis, Bill Whalen, Bob Wilson, Harry Pollock, Lucille Clav- ette, Bill Shuman, Sylvia Witschi, Pat Todaro, Joan Childs, and Scud Schofield performed with great eloquence and ease. Our Senior Prom with its exotic decorations and superb entertainment was the talk of the town. In the orchestra, which did a fine job everywhere. Bill Shuman, Bev Barlow, Gene Mullen, Gerald Mc- Lean, George Hobson, Pete St. Germaine, Cally Yates, and Danny Murphy were the seniors working for us. The band, which cheered our football team on, would be lost without such seniors as George Hob- son, Harry Pollock, Gerry McLean, Pete St. Germaine, Gene Mullen, and Bill Shuman. Our gorgeous gals who indeed deserve a lot of credit for their splendid work as drum majors are Elaine Lacasse, Sue Hor- man, Lucille Clavette, and Joan Stack. Cheerleaders who were the first in the history of the school to win first place at the Walpole Competi- tion were Kendra Poirier, Jeanne Prefontaine, and Pat Todaro, Head Cheerleader. The class of ' 53 accentuated its versatility when funds were raised for the yearbook through a skating party held at Witschi ' s Arena. Many thanks to Mrs. Witschi for the use of her Arena. The class of ' 53 which has made a reputation for itself in more than one way, really dislikes to say goodbye to the halls of N.A.H.S., as we have had many a happy time inside its four walls. As the say- ing goes, To each good thing must come an end and we are positive our four years have been a good thing for us and for our Alma Mater.

Mott There are many young people who never develop a deep interest in anything. Without such an interest they go through life content to drift with the tide. The world is calling for young people who will dedi- cate themselves to the needs of humanity. Will you answer the call? Arthur J. Mott Mrs. Nola Harrington 10 PRINCIPAL OF THE NORTH ATTLEBORO HIGH SCHOOL Mr. Leon A. Regan Mrs. Mildred Esty People who are genuinely happy are those who are constantly seeking to do good for others. All of us long to enjoy happiness, but many of us are side- tracked by thinking we must search for happiness. It is not necessary that we destroy the happiness of others in finding happiness ourselves, but rather if we give their light an opportunity to shine, that light has a way of reflecting back upon ourselves.

A 3nli Hell Innc To the Seniors go my heartiest congratulations for this past football season. Your sincerity, faithfulness, and strict training has brought about an end you well deserve. These past three years in part epitomize life itself with the building, learning, and hard times, and ultimate success. You leave with us an attitude of which the school can feel proud. We never gave up; we knew what was coming; and we’ve finally made the top. Never to be forgotten are the good times we ' ve spent together.

Coach Marx pleasure in giporlB Sports should be fun and played as such; however, it is a great deal more pleasant to win than to lose. To gain real pleasure one must think of the group in such matters as team play, condition, hard work and success. Therefore, everybody should do his utmost to prepare himself in order to gain the greatest satisfaction from his competition. Edward Marx After two decisive defeats by the Attleboro quintet, the North High Basketeers surged on to an 11-3 record in the Hockomock League to capture second place. Our overall season ended with a record of 14 wins and 7 losses. For the first time in many years our team entered the South Shore Tourney where they met defeat in the semi-finals at the hand of Plymouth. During the year three records were shattered, one by the team when they hooped up 94 points against Oliver Ames, the other two broken by captain Chuck Feid with 42 points in the Stoughton game, and a season total of 512 points. Boys leaving the squad this year are: Capt. Chuck Feid, Lloyd Collins, Clarkie Gay, Kent McMorrow, Chet Roberts, and Scud Schofield.

In the sense of sportsmanship, they always won their game and never showed defeat. With the same attitude toward life, these girls will un- doubtedly reach their lives ' ambitions. Elizabeth Mansfield 53 CWrlcadcr JEANNE PAT Adding color to the football and basketball season, our cheerleaders worked with the team to produce an undefeated record in football and a second place birth in the Hockomock League for basketball. They proved their worth in the rank of cheerleading too, by bringing home the bacon in the form of a first place trophy won in competition at Walpole.

The above trophy was won by the North Cheerleaders at a competition held in Walpole. Having won this trophy, the girls knew they would make good that year, and they maintained this peak for the duration of Football and Basketball season. The prominence of this magnificent trophy, which is awarded to the winner of the annual Attleboro foot- ball game, has stimulated much interest in North High sports. 55 First row leit to right — Harold Tetraute, Robert Valette, Henry Simoneau, Herman Arns, Russell Degraft, Edward Pollock, Charles Azarian, Ronald Cremo, Cameron Forbes, Robert Pierson.

The Senior Play produced by the class of 53 entitled Footloose was a three act comedy presented to the I public on December 5, 1952. I The theme of the play concerned a typical American I family and the problems of raising their adolescent 1 children. The lather and mother did not want to admit that their offsprings had grown up and were ready to t try their wings. A great deal of the credit goes to Mr. Theodore Dada, for without him we would have been completely at a loss. His hard work and splendid direction brought praise, not only from the entire cast but from the audi- ence on the night Footloose was presented. The class of 53 wishes to say to him — THANK YOU, MR.

Much of the praise goes to Clarkie Gay who proved to be a very capable captain. Each monitor was assigned to a post at the beginning of the year and was instructed to keep order at his station, which direction he carried out to the best of his ability.
