J? 4 i III mi iiii — !!

The Tiot editorial staff, inspired by the above quotation, and conscious of the great blessing of having been born under the broad stripes and bright stars of Old Glory, have chosen to build their yearbook around the theme of Freedom. They are mindful of the great obligation that American citizenship places on them, and they hope their fellow classmates will always be aware of their privileges and duties as they review the pages of their annual in the years to come.

[ 4 ] Mr. Stanley Fisher Mr. Lewis G. Lugton AVE et VALE! Norwood High School lost two veteran teachers this year when Mr. Stanley C. Fisher and Mr. Lewis Lugton retired. Their combined years of service to the town and to the young people of this town totalled fifty-two years. Each in his own inimitable way was a specialist — Mr. Fisher in his many years of teaching safe and efficient driving, while Mr. Lugton ' s boys over the years became competent and accomplished craftsmen in the field of cabinet making. Mr. Fisher retired from teaching to develop land which he owns in Medfield, and Mr. Lugton sought a sunnier clime, that of Florida, where he will continue to practice his skills when the spirit so moves him. To both these worthy gentlemen, we extend our sincere thanks for their contributions to the educational system of our town and our heartfelt hopes that they may enjoy many years of accomplishment and pleasure, sans pupils, sans rules and sans bell schedules. [ 5 ] Dedication The 1963 Tiot is dedicated to the spirit of freedom within the hearts of the young men and women of our generation. During these years, when there is so much unrest among nations and actual combat going on in so many parts of the world, it is most important that the youth of America keep the flame of freedom burning bright. This task will not be easy but we must persevere. Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of sup- porting it. Thomas Paine UNDERGRADUATES ACTIVITIES . SPORTS CLASS WILL SCHOOL SO SPONSORS ADVERTISING FBCULTV THE FOUNDING FATHERS of our country buoyed by faith and courage braved the unknown dangers of a vast new country to find the freedom of religious belief denied them at home. It is with faith and courage, too, that our faculty members embark on a program of enlightenment so that all students may gain the maximum benefit from the freedom of opportunity open to all in our country.

[61] Officers of Class of 1963 as Sophomores Antonitis, Devine, Fanning, Grinavic, Cronin, Souther, Donahue Blazing the New Frontier We might never want to admit it, but when the Class of ' 63 arrived on September 7, 1960, for the first big day on the hill, we were not confident. As we wandered through the maze of unfamiliar rooms and corridors, our two great problems proved to be losing our inferiority complexes and finding the second floor. To lead the way through our ordeal as lowly, but lively Sophs, we elected capable class officers. Led by our proficient Presi- dent, Channing Souther, they were: Peter Antonitis, Vice-President; Barbara Cronin, Secretary; Susan Devine and Chris Dona- hue, Treasurers; Anita Grinavic and Geof- frey Fanning, A. A. Representatives. On the evening of October 27 came the Sophomore Party, our initiation to N.H.S. social life. Chan emcee ' d the entertain- ment, highlighted by the piano mastery of Joan Connolly and Mary Grazado, a modern dance by Nancy Cowell, and the melodious vocal contributions of several class members. At the annual Sophomore Christmas assembly the Varsity Choir provided a beautiful background for Yuletide Scrip- ture readings by members of our class and the traditional O, Holy Night, sung by Mary Hucksam. No one wifl ever forget the drill of the construction crew in the basement that attempted an accompani- ment. Perhaps the first day we felt a part of Norwood High was during the football season when Dave Tracey was called upon to take his proud place as Varsity quarter- back, or maybe it was after we faced our first final exams, or when Jeff first came on the ice as novice net-tender for our glorious Golden Nuggets. It might have been when Mr. Hayden said we were to be ladies and gentlemen always or when we got our first pink slips— I don ' t remem- ber. But in June we were proud of our many triumphs and ready to profit by our equally numerous mistakes— no longer mis- fits on probation, but the Sons and Daugh- ters of a grand tradition. Ad summa contendimus! [66] Officers of Class of 1963 as Juniors Donahue, Fanning, Antonitis, Cronin, Viles, Souther Marching On With Vigah Having survived the rough bumps of the journey, the Class of ' 63 returned confi- dently as Juniors to make its mark at N.H.S. Our second year on the hill was characterized by an over-abundance of transition caused by the delayed comple- tion of our new addition. Soon we became expert at interpreting the hieroglyphics of X periods, D-4 segments, and six-lane traffic jams. Channing Souther, recipient of the Har- vard Book Prize, remained the leader of his fellow class officers: Pete Antonitis, Vice-President; Barbara Cronin, secretary; Anita Grinavic and Chris Donahue, Treas- urers; Patty Viles and Jeff Fanning, A. A. Representatives. The members of the Class of ' 63 re- mained spirited sports enthusiasts. Jeff Fanning and Chan Souther were elected varsity football captains after two rugged years of service. For his never say die Nuggets ' hustling, Dana Maus was chosen captain of hockey. Dave Tracey, veteran quarterback, also formed the front line of hoop men with Bob Adams and Chris Don- ahue. On the diamond, Carrabino, Falcone, Loper, Matola, Maus, McDonough and Tracey added to our class fame. To cheer the boys on, Anita Grinavic, Marcelle Vinson, and Susan Devine were elected cheerleaders. Father Adelmann of Boston College spoke at the first assembly held in our Little Theatre, when the National Honor Society inducted Joan Connolly, Mary Hucksam, Nancy Breen, Paula LaMont, Kathy Donahue, Donna Daley, and Jeanne McAuliffe. Also, in the spring, Bob Holman was selected as A.F.S. exchange student to Italy. After months of work and planning, we all spent a memorable evening at the Jun- ior Prom, dancing at our first formal in the oriental setting of Mahari. Our last official act as Juniors was the management of Class Day. Bidding fond farewells to the retiring upperclassmen, we eagerly anticipated our ascent to the hallowed throne of the Blue and White . . . Blessed be the Seniors, for they shall inherit the high school. [67] J un 10 r PRom mn v 4 196 2 I • X X 0. V Senior Class Officers - 1963 1st Row: Souther, Cronin, McKenna. Donahue, Hayes 2nd Row: Carrabino, Wisgirda, Raise the Flag - We Made It In September, 1962, with Senioritis al- ready in full bloom, we began the hour of glory at the summit of Our Hill. We returned with a bit of superiority, a sense of responsibility, and the looming question mark of the Future ; we were here to maintain distinction, seek honor, and pre- pare for that most important step soon to be taken. To aid the Class of ' 63 in the many decisions of the year, we elected Chan Souther for his third year in succession as Big Man on the hill. To assist Chan we chose Vice-President, Robert Wisgirda; Secretary, Barbara Cronin; Treasurers, Chris Donahue and Susan Hayes; and A.A. Representatives, Diana McKenna and Billy Carrabino. To intercede for the entire school in case of major catastrophes and minor problems, Francis Brissette was elected President of the Student Council and has ruled well with his usual spirit. On our return to school we all dis- covered a new and very important class- mate— Nunning Sri-Rahaju Wirjoatmodjo. Norwood High ' s delicate Indonesian ex- change student who has since become our dearest Nuni — surely the greatest treas- ure ever from the East. Work soon began on the 1963 Tiot, with Joan Connolly and Robert Holman as editors-in-chief. Mary Grazado and Bar- bara Cronin were selected art editors; Donna Daley and Thomas Redmayne, cir- culation editors; Karen Kelley and Allen Carver, advertising editors; and Kathleen Donahue and Francis Brissette, sponsor editors. The Tioteers wish to thank Mrs. Riley for her constant aid and unfaltering spirit. Sports for the ' 62-63 season got tinder- way with the football games in September. [70] Captains Fanning and Souther and team- mates Carrabino, Tracey, Adams, Maloof, Zimlicki, Giovannucci, Smelstor, Folan, and Curran fought for the blue and white . Supporting the team ardently were cheerleaders Marcelle Vinson, Patricia Viles, Elaine Viles, Janet Shamie, Judy Hunnewell, Patricia Sweeney, Janet Carl- son, and captain, Anita Grinavic. On the evenings of December 7 and 8, the Senior Play was held in the auditorium. Home Sweet Homicide chilled the souls of many a shy sophomore. Star perform- ances were given by Barbara Cronin, Henry Peterson, and that little sister Mary Ann Paul— and who will ever forget Bill Smith ' s charm or Mr. Flaherty ' s patience? Bill Lowry, our New York import, was chosen captain of the N.H.S hoopmen. Donahue, Tracey, Adams, and Timm were our other varsity contributions trained by our new coach, Mr. Nolet. Dave Tracey was our representative on the Bay State League All-Star Team. Excitement always arrives with the start of a new hockey season. Saturday nights last winter were all spent at the Arena, singing for the glorious Golden Nuggets as Maus, Fanning, and McNamara skated onward in victory. Hockey spirit was at its peak this year, as the team narrowly missed the state playoffs. At the close of the season Dana Maus was high scorer in the Bay State League. On April 26 and 27, the music depart- ment presented ' The Festival of Music which included performances by senior members of the Acappella Choir and Band and selections by the Senior Chorus. Coach Poce led his team to a very profit- able season in baseball. Captain Bill Car- rabino, Tracey, Falcone, Loper, Maus, Ma- tola, Lowry, and MacComisky proved to be formidable opponents to the whole league. In the spring we were all making fran- tic plans and preparations for graduation, jobs, and college. The high point of our final month was our Senior Prom, held at the Sidney Hill Country Club. Mo- ments to Remember was emphasized so well by the midnight supper served in the lush setting of the terrace and pool. Truly a great way to spend one of our last times together. And now comes Class Day and our graduation! The Seniors now bid a final farewell to the Hill with sincerest thanks to Mr. Hayden, Mr. Monbouquette and Miss Ryan, to our guidance counselors, class advisers, and our teachers for their toleration and wise counseling. We have stored a wealth of memories at N.H.S. and confidently, though perhaps a bit hesi- tantly, we step from this sunset to the inevitable dawn which follows. Senior Historian DONNA DALEY [71] Impressions of U.S.A. Impressions of Italy Nuning Sri-Rahaju Wirjoatmodjo Indonesia I ' ll always remember: —The great kindness of my wonderful American family-the Kelleys of 83 Saun- ders Road in Norwood. —The nice friends I made who helped me with my American-style wardrobe. —The friendliness of the teachers and the community in general. —The New England autumn with its lovely, colorful leaves and the noisy foot- ball games. —The cheerleaders and their excited an- tics and cute costumes. —American foods such as hamburgs and cokes, ice cream and apple pie— I learned to like pizza, too. —The rush, rush, rush of American living. —The beautiful winter landscapes with snow everywhere. —Those thrilling hockey games and so many girls in one car. —The big school lunchroom with every- one eating so fast and talking so loud. Robert Holman I ' ll never forget: —My early morning 100-yard dash in Lu- cerne to catch the train to Milan. —The first time I tried to converse in Italian with a storekeeper in Milan. —The beautiful scenery about the Lake Como Region. —The fantastic majesty and inspiration of the Milanese Architecture. —Playing volleyball with my lilliputian Italian friends. —The six-hour bus ride to Venice and my rather wet gondola ride. —The wonderfully cool nights on the Adriatic Riviera. —The helpfullness, love, understanding and patience of both my families. —Our going-away party at the end of our stay in Milan. —The boat trip home, the all-night parties, and my part in the Hell-Raisers ' Club. [72] Souther, Brissette, Holman The Three Musketeers The first of this able trio is Charming Souther, the President of the Class of 1963. In his role as Class President, one which he has held for three years, Chan has proved himself a capable leader. Some of his other activities include Captain of the football team, member of the track team, member of the Student Council. He plans to attend Amherst College to pursue a liberal arts degree. The second boy is Francis Brissette, the President of our Student Council. Fran is not a stranger to Student Council pro- cedures, as he was also President of the Junior High Student Council in its early years. His other activities include Sponsor Chairman of the Yearbook and member of the Math Team. Frannie will enter Northeastern University in the fall where he will major in mathematics. The third member of this group is Rob- ert Holman, the Co-Editor in Chief of the 1963 Tiot. Bob also served as our ambas- sador of good will to Italy where he spent this past summer. He is a member of the Math Team and also one of the main- stays of Boys ' Tennis. Next year Bob ex- pects to attend either Northeastern or Brown University. After college he hopes to travel again on the continent where he will attempt to fulfill his dream of being an international playboy.

However, in facing the trials of everyday life, courage and steadfastness of purpose are also required. At the core of our everyday school life lies the curricular work, and it is here that we must cultivate the tenacity of purpose to do our best on every occasion, and to take the best advantage of the education offered us to fit us for our place in a free world. Guidance Department The Guidance Suite, located opposite the main office, is complete with foui offices and a combination waiting room and reference library. This cluster of rooms has become famous and popular for its atmosphere of cheerfulness and bustling activity. Future hopes call for an adjoining lounge where students can meet with college delegates, browse through vocational and educational lit- erature, hold interviews with prospective employers, and take tests in small groups when necessary. The suite is staffed by an energetic force of four qualified coun- selors consisting of Mr. Frabotta, Mrs. Goepner, Mrs. Paige, and Mr. Porter. Mrs. Ashman is available from 8:30 to 3:30 to offer more complete secretarial services. The task of pointing our Norwood High scholars toward bright futures is being handled with utmost concern for the indi- vidual. The counselor-student ratio is now approximately 1 to 330. Each counselor has been assigned to a group of students which includes one-fourth of each class. In this way, the counselor-counseled re- lationship continues for four years. This affords the student the opportunity to ob- tain frequent counseling sessions and per- mits the counselor to become more fully acquainted with the student. [82] English Department The Norwood High School English De- partment offers a wide variety of courses in English to provide for the particular needs of all students enrolled in the school. Course offerings are planned to develop and increase skills in reading, writing, and speaking, those areas of special concern to the English faculty. Students are helped to develop an awareness of the practical and aesthetic aspects of all phases of the traditional English curricula. Varied literary types of all cultures and eras form the core around which revolve compositional, rhe- torical, grammatical, and oratorical ex- periences of the English classroom. In addition, an advanced seminar course is offered to selected college preparatory students. All students are assigned to English classes which, insofar as possible, are spe- cially adapted for their needs and abilities. Several times during the school year, all students confer privately on a scheduled basis with their English teachers in an effort to improve and develop composition skills. © [83] Science Department Five Science courses are being offered at present at various levels: General Science at two levels, Biology at three, Chemistry at two, Physical Science, and PSSC Physics. Chemistry is being modified by the studies in progress by the CHEM study group and the CBA study, now reaching publication in regular book form. Our new quarters allow much greater flexibility in extra curricular work and will increase in value as equipment is ac- quired to use. Projects may now be worked on during school time if desirable, and with our various project areas, may be left for a time without dismantling. This should encourage projects which were not feasible in the old building. Our plant room should brighten the windows of nearly all rooms of the school as we improve our growing skills. The Biology Department should be able to provide plants for all classrooms in the future. © [84] Math Department This year Mathematics at N.H.S. achieved an increased maturity when for the first time a group of juniors completed Math IV. These juniors will be able to take a year of calculus in their senior year. Math V will be entirely at the college level; about half of Math IV consists of what many institutions consider college mathematics. Courses in both modern and traditional mathematics continue in the ninth, tenth, and eleventh grades. The transition from the more cautious concepts to the more abstract is an evolving process which we are continuing with comparative tran- quility. Next year we shall have some experi- mental classes using programmed learning materials but, although we shall use their techniques, we continue to regard teaching machines or even learning engines with at least one lifted eyebrow. We observe with satisfaction that in- terest in mathematics continues to deepen. We note an increase not only in the num- ber but also in the quality of the students. © 185] History Department As the record of the past, history touches on all aspects of human activity. Norwood High ' s History program is designed to de- velop well informed citizens by acquaint- ing them with the past, present and future. The courses offered are varied. Ancient History gives the student a basic under- standing of the growth of civilization. It stresses a study of the empires of Egypt, Greece and Rome. World History, which is offered to sophomores, juniors and sen- iors, covers civilization from Biblical times to the present. American History shows the growth of our country in economic, political and cultural events. Consumer Economics is the study of world finances. This year current news magazines have been introduced into the various history classes, particularly at the senior level, with the hope that increased emphasis will be given to contemporary problems of our society. © [86 1 Foreign Language Department Throughout the United States the major objective in the teaching of modern for- eign languages has shifted from the de- velopment of reading skills to one of aural-oral proficiency. It is generally agreed that the laboratory method is best for intensive aural-oral drill. For this reason, a 30 position language laboratory was installed in the new building and has been in constant use since October 1962. Each student enrolled in a French or Spanish course is scheduled for two periods of approximately thirty minutes, every six days and has an added opportunity for supplementary work at the close of school. A pupil may begin his study of French, Spanish, or Latin in his Freshman year and continue it for four years. This past year, pupils who began French at the Junior High School have continued it and thus have the possibility of five years of study. In a matter of a few years, the Foreign Language Department will be receiving pupils who have studied French continuously since the third grade. 5J [87] Business Department Norwood High School offers a thorough training in business subjects for terminal students and many of our graduates are employed in interesting and challenging positions locally and in the Boston area. Courses offered include General Busi- ness Training, Economic Geography, Fil- ing, Business Law, Typewriting, Business Machines, Stenography, Transcription, and Bookkeeping. We have contact with personnel man- agers of various business organizations who are anxious to consult with our young people about to graduate. We are proud that many of our graduates have received a training that has equipped them to earn a livelihood with no further formal edu- cation. The demand by government and industry always exceeds the supply of well- trained and capable young men and women. Each year many of our graduates who have discovered a real interest in one of our main courses continue their formal education in schools of higher learning either as full-time day school or as evening school students. © [88] Library and Reading Program LIBRARY The school library now contains nearly 5,000 volumes; periodical subscriptions total more than 50. The steady increase in resources has enabled the library to function more adequately each year as a source of learning materials for the en- tire school program. However, s ince the American Library Association suggests a minimum of 10 books per pupil for a high school library, it is evident that our library still has quite a distance to go before it can be considered adequate for a school of approximately 1500 students. The restoration of the workroom and the conference rooms to the library has increased the shelving and seating capaci- ties of the library, although in both areas more space is needed. The Library Service Club continues to render invaluable assistance to the library, at the same time it enables its members to become more familiar with library methods and materials. READING The reading program at Norwood High has been developed for the purpose of promoting reading abilities necessary for success in today ' s highly competitive schools and colleges. It prepares students to meet requirements for post-high school studies and occupations. In this course, emphasis is placed on speed, comprehension in reading, vocabu- lary enrichment and study skills. Each student may proceed at his own pace and may take at least two courses in develop- mental reading during his high school years. There are two modern reading labora- tories that are fully equipped with excel- lent materials for students at all reading levels and two reading instructors. [89] Art and Music Department MUSIC DEPARTMENT The music department of Norwood Senior High School offers a varied number of musical activities. The Senior High Band, Acappella Choir and Varsity Glee Club are open to all qualified students in the school. At present, incoming freshmen also receive a half year of general music, and plans for the coming year include an elective course in music appreciation. The department hopes to make the students of Norwood Senior High School more aware of music by presenting pro- grams of outstanding excellence through- out the year. It is hoped that in the future, even more students will take advantage of the many opportunities offered by our musical organizations. It is only through direct participation that a person realizes the true value of music. © ART DEPARTMENT The Norwood High School Art Depart- ment offers opportunities for a well- rounded background in art. It provides for both students desiring to go into art careers and those desiring to develop their understanding of the visual arts. Students have the opportunity to work with many different art forms. Projects include the use of tempera and oil paints, ceramics, block prints and other media. Emphasis is put on creativity and origi- nality and students learn many different drawing and printing techniques. Students also learn to appreciate great art and to recognize the work of such painters as Rembrandt, Van Gogh and Matisse. [90] Home Economics and Industrial Arts HOME ECONOMICS The Betty Lamp, Symbol of Home Eco- nomics, has reached a new glow in Nor- wood High School. Here in the modernly equipped laboratories the teen-agers have the opportunity to develop their skills in homemaking arts. Not only are the girls able to learn methods of clothing con- struction, concepts of fashion, food prepa- ration, nutrition and home management; but there is a Chefs ' Club for the boys interested in learning how to prepare ioods. ® INDUSTRIAL ARTS The Industrial Arts program provides experiences in technical drawing, a course designed to prepare students who are going on to an engineering, technical or related scientific institution, to under- stand more readily this graphic language. A course in general mechanical drawing offers the terminal student some of the fundament al understandings necessary for entrance into the industrial world. General woodwork provides experiences for manipulative skills in the use of hand tools and the operation of many power machines. General metal work offers the student experiences in the machinist trade, sheet metal work, and wrought iron work. Electronics introduces the student to the theory of the electronic industry, and to advanced study of testing electronic equipment. New to the students in the fall of 1963 will be a course in the graphic arts. A modern darkroom and pressroom is now being made ready. [91] Physical Education Department With the construction of a new boys ' gymnasium, the program in the physical education department has been altered in order to accommodate and meet the needs of both boys and girls participating in the physical education classes. The new boys ' gym has meant that the girls ' gym may now be used solely for the girls and their program. With this type of arrange- ment, the girls ' and boys ' programs have been expanded so that now many new activities of a varied nature may be pre- sented to both groups. Physical Education classes are held two periods per week tor every student. First Aid classes meet once a week for all Fresh- men; Health Education classes occur once a week for all Sophomores, and the Seniors have Hygiene instruction once a week. Intramural sports offered for girls are field-hockey, basketball, tumbling, softbail and trampoline practice. The boys ' intra- mural program consists of soccer, football, tennis, basketball, gymnastics, and weight training. The interscholastic program, also a very important part of our physical education setup, is conducted for girls in field-hockey, basketball, tennis and softbail; and for the boys in football, basketball, baseball, in- door and outdoor track, cross country, golf and tennis. [92] PEBBODV To Betsey Ross went the supreme honor of making the first American flag — the flag that was to epitomize freedom wherever it waved. Her contribution was the result of the homely accomplishment of dexterity with the needle, but it served to enshrine her in the pages of history. We each have an individual contribution to make, within the boundaries of our ability, toward the ultimate freedom of all peoples enslaved by false doctrines or despotic rulers.

Morrison Business Machines Postgraduate and Alumnae Adviser, Press Club [97] MRS. BLANCHE KINGSBURY After twenty years of distinguished serv- ive to the community, Mrs. Blanche Kings- bury resigned as Director of the Henry O. Peabody School in December of 1962. An individual of great charm, remarkable competence, and dedicated purpose, she brought the school to its current high position among vocational educational in- stitutions, and although it may continue to grow in size, it has already reached the peak of excellence. Mrs. Kingsbury ' s gra- cious personality and strong capability have left an indelible impression on the Henry O. Peabody School. The Henry O. Peabody School opened its doors this fall without two of its veteran teaching personnel. Miss Veronica Riley, for many years in charge of the English Department, left teaching to engage in other pursuits, and Mrs. Helen Beardsell who taught related science, nutrition, and home management, retired to the exclusive practice of the last-named subject. To both these excellent teachers we say a grateful farewell and wish them continuing success in their new endeavors. Opportunity Has Many Aspects At Peabody The Henry O. Peabody School, a re- gional vocational school established in 1942, offers the following major programs of study: Beauty Culture, Dressmaking, Foods, Business, and Practical Nursing. Although the courses are vocational in nature, each student spends approximately 50 per cent of her time in academic classes. The school has a unique financial struc- ture, since it is supported by federal, state, town, and trust monies. Many years ago, Mr. Henry Oliver Peabody, whose family was concerned with the manufacture of the Peabody rifle, de- cided to assist young women in attaining education and training to become self- supporting. Funds which he left for such a purpose were invested wisely by prudent men and the income today from that trust fund, together with money from the pre- viously mentioned sources, staffs and main- tains our school. The school enrollment has increased in the twenty years of its existence, and programs of study have been added to its curriculum, according to community needs. Since some of the programs are in fields in which many jobs are available for young men, the school enrolls a few boys who show evidence of sincere interest and aptitude. Two and three-year programs are offered in Fashions and Foods. A one-year course is offered in each of these trades for post- graduate students. The Beauty Culture course offers a two-year course to under- graduates and a one-year course to post- graduates. The Business Department has one-year programs in any of three majors— secre- tarial, office machines, or clerical. An ac- celerated secretarial program of one year ' s duration is offered to graduates of a high school college preparatory course. The practical nursing training is offered to post high school students only, and it consists of five month ' s training, at the school and ten months ' work at the Nor- wood Hospital. Senior students completing the course of studies receive the Norwood High School diploma and the Henry O. Peabody School certificate. The latter is earned after six months ' successful employment in the field of training. The school has earned an enviable placement record in the trades and in business. There exists an active Alumnae Association of graduates who have been helped through training and education to find happiness and success in many fields of endeavor. The school is tuition-free to students; however, the Town of Norwood bills the particular school system concerned for nonresident students for $400 a pupil. State funds reimburse these towns for 50 per cent of the cost of this vocational education. Tuition for the practical nurs- ing course is $210. There is no tuition charged for the business course because the department is supported by monies from the trust fund. Students pay a labora- tory fee of $10 a year if they do not reside in Norwood.

This new world was going to make adults of us, and we were determined to make these coming two years ones of great accomplishment, scholastically and socially. After the first term ended, the holidays arrived: Thanksgiving with the Annual Turkey Dinner; and Christmas with the traditional spiritual pageant, Christmas Luncheon, and Operation Santa Claus, a project through which we remembered less fortunate people. Soon spring came and with it the ex- citing Peabody Prom. Decorating and Refreshment Committees bustled busily to make this prom the best of all. When the Step Party ended, our first year was over. How quickly it had passed! Tanned and happy after our summer vacation, we returned as seniors, ready to put our shoulders to the wheel. In September, we welcomed the new students with a picnic at Rocky Woods Reserva- tion. This year we have also welcomed two new faculty members: Mrs. Zalia Souther of the English Department and Mrs. Judith Micelotta, our science teacher. Four seniors were elected to lead the Student Co-operative Association. They were Ruthann McLaughlin, President; Beverly McKinnon, Vice-president; Doro- thy McKernan, Treasurer; and Emily Jarosz, Secretary. In December, Mrs. Blanche M. Kings- bury, who had been Director of our school since its beginning, retired after years of devoted service. We greeted our new Di- rector, Miss Ann E. Donovan, and we hope she will enjoy her associations at the Henry O. Peabody School. Harbor Lights was chosen for the theme of our Spring Dance held in May. Then, in a few short weeks, our studies were over! June arrived, bringing with it the more solemn aspects of our senior year. At the Step Party, it was now our turn to receive scrolls, corsages, and awards for our achievements. Then came Graduation, the ceremony we had so anxiously awaited. United for the last time, we accepted our diplomas, one in purpose and one in vision. As we stood on the threshold of our new vocations, we were grateful to all who had helped us attain our goals. —Emily Jarosz —Carol Fornaro [103] SHER C1RS5 WRITERS BEST STUDEHT Xss a tVM :%M IS.

JUniORS Junior Class Officers 1st Row: Brefini, Green, Anderson 2nd Row: Ferris, Griffin Anticipation and Participation The well-established members of the Norwood High School Class of 1964, after a successful Junior year, are eagerly look- ing forward to their final year at the top of the Tiot hierarchy. When Junior Class elections were held in October, Roger Ferris upset the former class President William Bazzy, who was elected Vice-president of the Student Coun- cil; Helen Abdallah was re-elected Vice- president along with Elizabeth Anderson as Secretary. Patricia Greene and John Griffin were elected Class Treasurers. The Girls ' A.A. and Boys ' A.A. Repre- sentatives were Donna Brefini and Paul Donahue, respectively. The two Junior finalists in the Foreign Exchange Student Program were Maxine Cushing and Perry Lynn Moffit. Juniors excelling in the field of sports were John Bayer, Paul O ' Donnell, Alan Whitty, and Thomas Clifford of hockey fame, while Stephen Bowen, Paul Donahue, and Robert DeRose were gridiron per- sonalities. The most important event for us this year was the Junior Prom which was the prime topic of conversation from the be- ginning of the school year. A large number of Juniors responded to the call for people to sign for the various committees. The theme was discussed and rediscussed and finally the decision in favor of Tonight was made. With final examinations over, our last official duty will be as Class Day hosts to our elders whose places we will fall heir to when another September rolls around. Junior Historian DARLENE BRIGGS [112] Sophomore Class Officers 1st Row: Fuller, O ' Day, Welch 2nd Row: Mitchell, D ' Espinosa, Joseph The Class of ' 65 Comes Alive Norwood High ' s class of 1965 returned in September, 1962, no longer the lowest group on the totem pole, but well estab- lished members of the student body. Our participation in all student activi- ties increased with our feeling of being more at home on the hill. Two of our classmates, Janet Carlson and Patricia Sweeney, are cheerleaders. Among others, Phyllis Kallstrom and Kestutis Makaitis did well in the Christmas play, performed by the newly-formed Dramatic Club. Many other sophomores took part in a minor way. In the field of sports, Jimmy Donovan and Joe Maloney excelled on the track, Leo Immonen and Charlie Hopkins in basketball, Jack Lanzoni and Paul D ' Espi- nosa in football, and in hockey our heroes were Blaine Maus and Timmy Twomey. After vigorous campaigning and an election rally, we elected our class officers. Paul D ' Espinosa became president, Kenny Joseph, vice-president; Mary Ann O ' Day, secretary; Thomas Mitchell, boys ' treas- urer; Jane Fuller, girls ' treasurer; and athletic association members, Richard Santaspargo and Nancy Welsh. Our class party, held in October, was a successful autumnal festivity, featuring appropriate fall decorations and exhibit- ing the entertaining ability of Andrew Howard, Donny Day, Bobby Campisano, Gail Compardi, Roberta Benham, Carol Grabus, Nancy Welsh, Paul D ' Espinosa, Rocco Grasso, and others. This has been a better-adjusted year for all of us and we are proud to be making a name for ourselves scholastically and in extra-curricular activities.

How long we ' ve heard it- how long we ' ve sung it— and now at last we live it. Shy and awkward yet filled with enthusi- asm and vigor, we made our bow at Norwood High. With the help of the administration, the faculty, and the upper classmen we finally adjusted to our new life. Our first duty as Freshmen was to elect the following class officers: William Crowley, President; Elizabeth Callahan, Vice-president; Mary Phalen, Secretary; Andrea Bremer and Michael Adelmann, Treasurers; and Martha O ' Leary and Frank Danieli, A. A. Representatives. After this business was taken care of, we had the pleasure of planning our first social event of the year— the Freshman Party which took place on November 7. The theme of our party was Fall Fan- tasy . Everyone had a delightful evening and we were very impressed with the outstanding entertainment. The Freshman boys have upheld the honor of our class in all sports competi- tion—on the football field, on the basket- ball court and on the hockey rink. We are especially proud of Richard Hebner, one of the few Freshmen in Norwood High School ' s history to play regularly on the varsity hockey team. Our spirits are high, and our hearts are willing. We hope to contribute much to our school. Freshman Historian ELIZABETH CALLAHAN [118] BCTIUITIE5 In World War I the typical doughboy enlisted in the idealistic cause of making the world safe for democracy. Today idealism seems in danger of giving way to prag- matism and since we must live in the world, our ideals must also be realistic. Perhaps for us the great problem is making democracy safe for the world— in seeing that it works not just for us but for all freedom-loving people everywhere. FREEDOm n. CBRUER, K.

[RORIR Student Council Executive Board and Officers Sitting: Abdallah, Donahue, Hucksam, Brissette, Devine, Bazzy, Cronin Standing: Miss Hubbard, Griffin, Bowen, Redmayne, Grazado Projects and Problems The Norwood High School Student Council of 1962-63 began the year with high hopes under the capable leadership of Francis Brissette, President; William Bazzy, Vice-President; Mary Hucksam, Re- cording Secretary; Helen Abdallah, Cor- responding Secretary; and Susan Devine, Treasurer. The Executive Board, which played an important part in the success of the Council, was comprised of Barbara Cronin, Kathleen Donahue, Mary Gra- zado, Thomas Redmayne, Steven Bowen, and John Griffin. We began our schedule with the first big social event of the year, the Autumn Frolic. The dance was held in the gym which had been transformed into a bright autumn scene. In accordance with tradi- tion, a considerable sum of the proceeds from the dance was donated to the Foreign Exchange Fund. Our first big problem was the traffic situation between the new and old build- ings. John Folan of the Class of 1962 had done a meritable job last year, but there was still congestion. After much observa- tion and study, a system of free traffic was instituted which seems to work as well as the former directives, but is still far from satisfactory. The Ethics Committee of the Student Council also aroused much interest. We tried to solve the problems of cheating, lack of school spirit, and lack of courtesy. We hope we have had some success. [124] Foreign Exchange Committee Row 1: Devine, Grazado, Hucksam, Cronin, Wirjoatmodjo, Scafati, DiCicco, Black Row 2: Cornell, Schaier, Brissette, Holman, Redmayne, Souther, Lanzoni In February we held the second of what seems to have become an institution, the Student-Faculty Basketball Game. The profits of this game also aided the Foreign Exchange Fund. The annual Foreign Exchange Assembly was held in the spring with foreign ex- change students from surrounding schools participating in a panel discussion. Our own little Miss from Indonesia, Nuning Wirjoatmodjo, took part in the discussion. At the Honors Assembly certificates of recognition were presented to the officers, Executive Board members and two-year Senior members of the Council. We would like to thank Miss Hubbard and Mr. Buscone, our faculty advisers, for their help and understanding, and Mr. Charles Hayden, our principal, for his patience and interest. M.A.H.

The boys also originate their own routines and compete against other schools in the Bay State League.

This year they again published football pro- grams for the Athletic Department, in addition to the regular six issues of the newspaper. The HILLTOPPER has a special reason to be proud of this year ' s accomplishments. We won an award from the New England Scholastic Press Association of Boston Uni- versity and we have been completely self- supporting. We have become another means through which a student may ap- peal to the Student Body. We have taken active participation in important school events, such as the School Citizenship Week and have edited several crusading articles on school affairs pertinent to student life. While Donna McClellan capably han- dled our exchange program with neighbor- ing high schools, Ron Giovannucci struck [142] the keys for his lively sportscasts; and while Susan Hayes and Mary Ann Paul spiced our pages with their indomitable humor, Mary Hucksam presented a num- ber of intelligent discussions on school affairs. Our hardworking staff of all-around reporters did an excellent job of covering school events and of creative writing; our advertising committee worked equally as hard. They were: Juniors Kathy Bartsch, Martha Black,Marcia Donahue, Bill Jank, Sandra Nelson, Leah O ' Leary, Susan Ra- moska, Sally Thompson, Nancy Wolley; Sophomores Arlene Black, Peggy Breen, Kate Crawford, Betty Deasy, Janice Hol- man, Mary Kavolius, Phyllis Kallstrom, and Kestutis Makaitis.

This group stresses the performance of music for unaccom- panied voices. Religious and classical music are featured on their programs. However, the choir often displays its versatility by singing selections from operetta and the musical comedy stage. Our aim in the formation of the Acappella choir is to present a high school choir that maintains standards of the very highest in both programming and performance.

Dave Tracey and Bob DeRose com- bined on a spectacular 80-yard touchdown pass to do the trick. Against Milton, a distinct weight disadvantage proved the difference as the offense never got going and Norwood bowed, 28-0. The out-of- league game with Rindge Tech was can- celled as torrential rains flooded the field. Thoroughly rested, the Gullamen faced Wellesey next. The strong offensive power of Wellesley rolled over the Norwood de- fense, 32-0, and completely dominated the game. At Braintree, passes dropped like so many dead leaves, with Norwood under the pile, 16-0. Against Framingham, Nor- wood was shut out for the fourth straight time, 14-0. For the eleventh consecutive year, Natick toppled Norwood, 32-6. Despite a weak first half, Dave Tracey and Bill Car- rabino teamed up for Norwood ' s second touchdown to date. The Norwood defense toned up against Needham, displaying strength in all four periods, but, alas, they fell in defeat once again, 8-0. For the first time in a good many years the tradi- tional Dedham game was not played on Thanksgiving. Postponed by rain, the game was played on Saturday, the 24th. A first period safety averted a Dedham shutout, but several long runs caused a Dedham victory, 32-2. Even though we didn ' t win many games this year, the spirit and courage displayed by these players and their coaches is truly noteworthy. It is not easy to stand up and face successive setbacks, but these fine sportsmen never-say-die . [156] Basketball Team Kneeling: Immonen, Eck, Tracey, Lowry, Hopkins, Baxter, Timm Standing: Mr. Nolet, Flood, Donahue C, Macauley, Stravinski, Loughlin, Donahue P., Loper Murdered at the Foul Line In his first year of coaching at Norwood High, Keith Nolet, assistant coach at North- eastern, found most of the other teams in the league just too powerful for his blue and white quintet. The Norwood squad dropped their first 14 games despite fine shooting by Charlie Hopkins, Dave Tracey and Ron Stravinski, and good work be- neath the boards by Buddy Timm and Dick Baxter. In the opening tilt, a strong Milton team overpowered Norwood, 43-30. In their next contest the blue and white bowed, 62-30, to Wellesley. In their next three games Norwood showed considerable fight and spirit but, in the end, were forced to lower their colors again to Need- ham, 46-31; to Braintree, 41-23; and to Framingham, 64-34. Against Natick High the squad showed marked improvement but Lady Luck failed us, and Natick won, 54-34. Victory seemed sure against Walpole until the last five minutes when fouls and fatigue crippled the blue and white. Walpole won, 45-40. At home against Dedham, the Norwood fallibility at the foul line proved fatal, and again we succumbed, 45-35. It was a different squad that faced Mil- ton to open the second round of games. Much more fire, practice and spirit on the side of the Norwood Hoopsters helped im- mensely. It was certainly a tired and thankful Milton team that squeaked through a tight 51-50 contest. Junior Ron Stravinski pumped in 22 points in a tre- mendous effort against Wellesley, League Champs, although his team bowed again, 69-50. Fatigue and the Norwood losses at the foul line proved to be the margin against Needham, as, again, the blue and white five bowed 60-36. A fired-up Natick team forced a victory 61.45. Inability at the foul line was the difference as Framing- ham rolled, 59-35. Again, foul shooting, as well as the fact that Norwood was cold most of the game, added up to a 49-23 scalping by the Braintree wamps. Despite their many previous failures, the Blue and White cagers pulled out an honest victory against Walpole, 49-41. Dave Tracey, Char- lie Hopkins, and Ron Stravinski led the squad in this, their initial conquest. The season ended on a sour note, however, against Dedham, 50-45. We think that Coach Nolet and his squad of courageous young men deserve a vote of gratitude for their fortitude.

The team was in close contention for a tourney bid all year until they were upset by a surprising Framingham sextet to the tune of 4-3 in the next to the last. game. Keeping the Nuggets in the running all the way to the finish were the three seniors on this year ' s club: Dana Maus, flashy first line center; Jeff Fanning, our stalwart net- minder; and Dave McNamara, high- spirited left-winger on the first line. The Nuggets opened the season with an opening night win over Natick, 3-0. In their second bid, Walpole, who later won the state title, overpowered our Nuggets, 3-1, despite fantastic netminding by Jeff Fanning. Wellesley dealt Norwood their second defeat, 5-2, as captain Maus was forced to turn defenseman to protect battle-weary Jeff Fanning. The Nuggets got back on the win-trail Wednesday, December 26, with a 5-2 victory over arch- rival Dedham. Norwood completely over- powered Milton the following Saturday, 6-1. The Norwood scoring punch really broke open against Framingham as the Nuggets breezed, 8-1, with captain Maus, Jack Bayer, and Rich Hebner leading the way. Needham proved to be the next vic- tim as the win-hungry Nuggets were again victorious, 3-1. For the second time, Nor- wood overturned Natick, 4-2, to begin the second round of games. Walpole again proved too strong for our Nuggets, 4-0. In a close thriller all the way, Wellesley tripped Norwood, 2-1. Norwood again foiled Dedham, 2-1, overcoming close con- tact and brilliant Dedham goal-tending. Norwood came from behind to stop Mil- ton, 6-2, for the second time. Norwood ' s tourney berth fell away as a fired-up Fram- ingham squad upset Norwood, 4-3. At season ' s end the Nuggets fought to a gruelling 4-4 tie with Needham. The Golden Nuggets finished the season with an 8-5-1 record. Rounding out this hustling unit were first-liners, junior Jack Bayer and freshman Rich Hebner, who both ended the season with a total of fif- teen points. The second line was centered by junior Tom Clifford who was flanked by high-scoring Paul O ' Donnell and sopho- more Paul Angelo. The defensive corps was made up of junior Al Whitty and sopho- mores Blaine Maus and Tim Twomey. With all of these underclassmen as letter- men and a crew of promising players, the outlook next year is quite promising.

It has a deep pitch- ing staff, and Coach Poce is very proud of the defense. In short, this year ' s team is very spirited. On the mound, Skip Loper and Dave Tracey are the top right-handed starters; John Lynch, Paul Fitzgerald, and Bill Lowry give the team left-handed strength, while Paul Loughlin is Mr. Poce ' s ace in relief. The defense is based around second and short with Mike Carney and Rich Hebner. Rounding out the infield strength is Dana Maus at third and Dick Baxter at first. In the outfield Captain Bill Carrabino and Rick Falcone have good speed and strong arms. Offensively, Bill Carrabino, Rick Fal- cone and Dana Maus supply a lot of punch. Mike Carney and Dick Baxter have already hit home runs. Walter McDonough, Rick Johns and Rich Hebner have also shown considerable power in reserve. This year the team has a good bench manned by Dave Eck, Jack Bayer, Paul Matola, Paul O ' Donnell and Joe MacComiskey. So far this season the team has beaten Walpole, 9-1, in the home opener; Welles- ley, 10-4, and Framingham 10-6. In their two losses, Natick, 4-2, and Milton, 8-3, they showed fine ability against top oppon- ents. This group is capable of beating any team in the league, and anyone, either representing the school on the ball team, or just rooting for the team, has great con- fidence in this squad. These boys should be near the top in the final standings, with 8 games yet to be played as we go to press. The players are in fine fettle and the coach and cheering section are confident and enthusiastic.

At the same time, we wish to suggest to our friends who read this hook that they patronize the stores listed in our advertising section. Yearbook advertising may reach a more limited audience than newspaper advertising, but it is much more permanent and much more handsomely displayed, and it will be read through the years by all of us who cherish this souvenir of happy high school days.

Barry Simmons was a very likable, very regular guy who had many friends and no enemies. The unfortunate accident which took his young life was a tragedy which we all felt very keenly. We once again extend our sympathy to his family and say, We, too, remember and are grieved. v t- .w f III ?
