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. By Mary Beach and Kent McMorrow The Red Cap “Ta e 3
