Text from Pages 1 - 300 of the 1966 volume:

roreword Since the death of President Kennedy, the fine fervor and desire for service to humanity and to our country ' s best interests has suffered a slow diminution. Apathy and passivity have once again become the mark of the younger generation, except for those who chose to rebel against authority. We are for rebellion where the objectives are clear-cut and worth-while. With one life to live we want to make it count. Our yearbook theme is therefore a call to arms against indifference and insensitivity. Let us strive to be better than we are. NORWOOD SENIOP H I h U SCHOOL JmwiM JS « S S sbw ! ■■ DR. PHILIP O.

A glance at the map shows how appropriate this picturesque name is, for Norwood is bounded on the north by Planting Field Brook and Purgatory Brook, on the south by Traphole Brook and the Neponset River, on the east by the Neponset River, and on the west by Hawes Brook and Germany Brook.

These two gentlemen have been the backbone of the Science Department at Norwood High School for a combined total of sixty-five years. For their patience, their dedication, their enthusiasm and their whole- hearted involvement, both in their work and in the good of this school as a whole, they have earned this recognition. We wish them continued success and happiness in their new lease on life. I 7 ] Fear of involvement, fear of reprisal, and fear of strangeness make for apathy toward human pain and human involvement.

However, our egos were a bit deflated due to the harassment of our older schoolmates, who under the guise of helpfulness, frequently misguided us. Our first duty as freshmen was to choose our leaders— 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. Repre- sentatives. After this routine business had been taken care of, we proceeded to plan our first social event as members of Norwood High— the Freshman Party with the theme of Fall Fantasy . That evening we dis- covered the many hidden talents of our fellow classmates. In our freshman year our class was out- standing in many areas. We had our share of superior scholars and robust athletes. Those leading our class scholastically were Jon Purnell, Margaret Mitchell, Lof- tin Elvey, Ellen Morgen and Andrea Brem- er. In athletic endeavors we relied on John Solomon on the gridiron, Mike Griffin on the court, and Richie Hebner on the ice. We contributed to the many diverse groups in extra-curricula activities — music, debat- ing, and dramatics. By June we had established ourselves as competent school citizens and enthusiastic supporters in all athletic events. With the help of the faculty and upperclassmen we gained the confidence we needed to return to the Hill— this time as wise old sophs.

We Found A Home On The Hill 1966 Class History - Sophomore Year In September, 1963, the class of ' 66 re- turned to begin its second eventful year on the Hill. Although still considered under- classmen by our elders, nevertheless, we had the satisfaction of knowing that we weren ' t the lowest group on the totem pole. Our class, unique as it was, did a rare thing in re-electing the same slate of offi- cers for the second year in a row. William Crowley again took the lead aided by Eliz- abeth Callahan, Vice-President, Mary Pha- len, Secretary; Andrea Bremer and Michael Adelman, Treasurers; and Martha O ' Leary and Frank Danieli, A. A. Representatives. Our sophomore year was especially and uniquely outstanding because of a few un- expected October holidays caused by the bomb scares. We did time for these later on, however. On October 25, the Sophomore Party, Autumn Leaves was held. It was, without a doubt, a great success. We shall never forget the confusion of the memory dance. At the outset of our sophomore year, our athletes began to show their prowess in all varsity sports. Our Gullamen were John Solomon, Frank Danieli, Michael Griffin, and Chris Effertz. The hockey heroes helping to gain a Bay State Cham- pionship were Richy Hebner, Robert Don- ahue, William Crowley, William Hasenfus and Robert Clifford. In 1964 the J.V. Basketball team was made up wholly of sophomores; in retro- spect a signal of the championship which was to emerge in 1966. We ended our sophomore year having further engraved the class of 1966 in the minds of all and we eagerly awaited up- perclassmanship in the ne xt fall.

We Expanded Our Spheres Of Activity 1966 Class History ■ Junior Year The Fall of 1964 ushered in a new school year with the class of 1966 returning to take its place on the Hill— this time with the distinction of being upperclassmen. Along with prestige came responsibility and our first duty as upperclassmen was to elect a slate of officers. William Crowley was, for the third year, elected President. He was assisted by Peter Black, vice-presi- dent; Mary Phalen, secretary; Mary Babel and Roy Immonen, treasurers, and Kath- leen Drew and Frank Danieli, A.A. repre- sentatives. As juniors we played an integral part in all school affairs. Our athletes, as usual did their best to uphold the enviable reputa- tion that our class had established. In foot- ball, we depended on John Solomon, Frank Danieli, Michael Griffin, and Michael Brad- ley. On the basketball court, the juniors were also successful due to the prowess of sharpshooters Christopher Effertz, Stephen Hemman, Roy Immonen, Michael Griffin, and Richard Shumski. In that year our hockey team, second best in the state, was helped greatly by the efforts of Richy Heb- ner, William Crowley, William Hasenfus, Robert Donahue, and Robert Clifford. We were more than proud of our track team which carried home the Bay State Conference trophy to Norwood High. Among those athletes who deserve our praise for helping accomplish this feat are Jack Flaherty, Michael Sullivan, Jon Pur- nell, Kevin Raftery, Bernard Cornelia, Jim Robertson, and Matthew Whemas. [90] At the first Hootenanny ever held at N.H.S., we found that many members of our class were musically talented. Among the performers were Irene Gotovich, Kath- leen Stewart, the Raftery girls, Barbara Hucksam, Liz Callahan, and MaryBeth Noonan. Two students deserving special recogni- tion for exceptional academic achievement were Loftin Elvey and Jon Purnell. Loftin was the recipient of the Harvard Book Prize and Jon received the History award for excellent scholarship in that particular field. An exciting experience took place when our school was fortunate to be the host for six German students and two of their pro- fessors for three weeks. These students lived with Norwood families and partici- pated in our school activities. It proved to be a rich experience for all concerned. As the seasons changed so did our in- terests, and as the thrill and excitement of the state hockey tournament subsided our thoughts turned to social activities, in par- ticular, to the Junior Prom. We choose our theme, Some Enchanted Evening , formed our committees, bought our gowns, rented our tuxedos, and made detailed prepara- tions. Before we knew it the long awaited night arrived. The cafeteria was trans- formed into a beautiful South Pacific Isle with lovely girls, handsome swains, and swaying palms. It was truly an enchanted evening for all. It was with great pride that we attended the annual awards assembly where our scholarly schoolmates were received into the National Honor Society. Those of us rewarded for outstanding academic accom- plishment were Nancy Aicardi, Pamela Bowen, George Rakauskas, Ellen Morgen, Carol Miller, Loftin Elvey, Margaret Mit- chell, Joan Vasilauskas, Barbara Staller, and Roy Immonen. It was with mixed emotions that we ful- filled our last duty as juniors, which was to bid farewell to our senior friends— sorrow- ful, for having to end friendships, but proud and happy to ascend to the top rung of the ladder— at long last. L91] SOTE ENCHANT D1AY £ l%5 fcU EVENING Senior Class Officers — Class of 1966 Front Row: Drew, Purnell, Anastasia, Phalen Rear Row: Adelmann, Donovan, Solomon The Elysian Fields of Seniority Class History — Senior Year With pride, hope, and determination we accepted the title of Seniors in September of 1965. Upon our return we were greeted with a new face among the old familiar ones — that of Betty Grullon, our delight- ful exchange student from the Dominican Republic. Before long, we took full com- mand of our new position for which we had long awaited. 1966 could be called the year of change. For example, we had a new class president, Jon Purnell, to lead us on our long last stride before adulthood. His helpers were Donald Anastasia, vice-president; Mary Phalen, secretary; Beth Donovan and Mi- chael Adelmann, treasurers; and Kathleen Drew and John Solomon, A.A. Represen- tatives. Our class has broken many precedents in its career at N.H.S., probably the most memorable of which was the victory over Natick at the height of our football season. For fifteen consecutive years, Natick had beaten the Norwood team on the gridiron; however, in 1966 our championship team scalped the Natick Redmen 9-6 — a feat which few will forget. Our team was cap- tained by John Solomon who was ably supported by Michael Bradley, Mike Grif- fin, Kevin Raftery, Dennis Roberts, Dave Graham, Dick Frucci, Peter Barry, Frank Danieli, Chris Effertz, John Stanovitch, and Tom Costello. Our basketball and hockey teams also added lustre to an already famous class with both teams entering post-season tour- naments. In basketball, it was the first time in eight years that Norwood High had been represented in the Tech tourney. We owe a great deal of praise to the players, with [94] special applause to Chris Effertz, Mike Griffin, Rich Shumski, and sixth man, Steve Hemman; and warm thanks to their coach, Mr. Nolet. Hockey has always been a successful sport at Norwood High and this year our class upheld Norwood ' s reputation in the league by winning the Bay State championship. Richie Hebner, Captain Bob Donahue, Bob Clifford, Bill Hasenfus and Neil Hig- gins, the great soph goalie, led us to the semi-finals of the state tourney to crown a successful and exciting season. Coach Wheeler deserves congratulations. We not only had proficient athletes, but also talented Thespians among the mem- bers of our class. Barbara Hucksam, Mary Ellen Mulhern, Jean Towne, Jon Purnell, Andrea Bremer, and Dennis Roberts dem- onstrated their acting ability in the Senior Class presentation of We Shook the Fam- ily Tree. Our talents also reached into the field of music. Our production of Varieties ' 66 ' uncovered talent of which we had no knowledge. Among our chanteurs were Jef- frey Nash, Kevin Taube, Paul Pelligrin, Andrea Bremer, Peter Black, Betty Bald- win, Donna Day, David Franciosi, Kath- leen Stewart, and Liz Callahan. We are especially proud of one member of our class, Loftin Elvey, for winning the Northrop Corporation Merit Scholarship. Although April brought with it few spring-like days, nevertheless the dreaded disease, senioritis set in as usual and our thoughts turned towards social activities— the most important of these being the Sen- ior Prom, which was held May 20th at Sidney Hill Country Club. Night of dreams realized! What pulchritude and poise were on display! We lived through the agonies of final examinations and ended our reign in a. blaze of glory and a week of activities in- cluding the Honors Banquet at the King Philip Inn, the Sports Banquet, Class Day, Baccalaureate, Senior Banquet, climaxing with Graduation. We owe deep gratitude to Mr. Monbou quette, Mr. Picirrilli, Miss Ryan, our teach- ers and our coaches for guiding us through the most important years of our lives. We feel that through this rich experience we have gained the necessary attributes to be- come respected citizens aware of our re- sponsibilities and ready and willing to shoulder them.

SAMUEL JOHNSON [101] Guidance Department The expansion of the Guidance Depart- ment from four counselors to six (three male and three female) was the predomi- nant feature of growth and development in this area this year. To house this en- larged staff, it was necessary to convert the library office into twin consultation rooms for two of the male counselors. The in- creased staff necessitated adding a second secretary to the clerical staff. It was the purpose of these counselors to acquire an overview of ' the total edu- cational development of each pupil. This was accomplished through individual coun- seling and standardized testing. In addition to the nation-wide tests, such as the college board entrance examinations, the guidance department administered individual and group intelligence tests, talent-searching ap- titude tests, and achievement tests. It was their responsibility to interpret the pat- terns revealed by these test results to teachers, parents, and pupils, and to co- ordinate all efforts contributing to the success of each pupil. In the performance of these duties, the staff worked closely with administrators, teachers, parents, and community service officials. School resources in specialized areas such as reading and speech were fully utilized; and when maximum help re- quired the resources of local and state agencies, these contacts were made on a referral basis. Thus it became the hope of all concerned that individual students would be helped to grow in independent learning, decision-making, and personal adjustment. [102] English Department The Norwood Senior High School En- glish Department offered a wide variety of courses in the English language and in literature to provide for the particular needs of the student body. Course offerings were planned to develop and enrich skills in reading, writing, and speaking, those areas of special concern to the English faculty. Grammar was taught as the base for correct written and oral expression, but a knowledge of and appreciation for litera- ture was, as always, the core of all En- glish studies. Norwood Senior High School classes used a variety of modern texts to explore the novel, short story, drama, essay, and other literary forms. A survey of En- glish and American literature was carried on through the Junior and Senior years to provide the student with a better un- derstanding of his literary heritage. Several times during the year students were given the opportunity to confer with their English teachers about the quality of their work. These conferences were scheduled in an effort to improve, develop, and enrich skills in written and oral com- position. A special feature in the English De- partment was the opportunity offered to make class field trips to Boston and sub- urban theatres to see stage plays. In this way, interested students are given the op- portunity to see worth-while legitimate theatre at nominal prices. Next year the department will offer elective courses in creative writing, drama and public speaking. [1031 Mathematics Department i The mathematics department is now nearing the end of a period of revision and change which is quite unlike any other period in the history of teaching mathe- matics. In the past ten years each course in the curriculum has been substantially revised in order to take full advantage of new research done in the area of math education. This year, for example, the de- partment participated in a federally funded study to discover whether the use of a time-shared computer would improve the learning of mathematics. One class in second year algebra trav- eled to Westwood once a week, where they programmed and solved problems in al- gebra through a terminal which was at- tached to a P D P-l computer in Cam- bridge. Most of the students found using a powerful, high speed computer interesting, challenging, and exciting. In addition to their participation in a truly forward look- ing project, they had fun. In the Basic Math courses, where pro- grammed instruction was introduced in 1963, a compromise was reached. The pro- grammed units were used for five weeks each term, and the regular text for the other half of each term. This instruction was achieved without the possible result- ing boredom, while the regular teaching continued, with some of its problems re- moved or at least eased. [104] Foreign Language Department The growth and expansion of Norwood Senior High School has been reflected in the Foreign Language department. This year, for the first time, there is a class in fourth year Spanish. There are two classes in fourth year French and two in fourth year Latin. Next year it may be possible for those French students who have suc- cessfully completed four levels of French instruction, the first of which was at the Junior High School, to do advanced study for an additional year. The laboratory continues to be a very useful adjunct in the learning of modern foreign languages. Each booth is equipped with a tape recorder which permits the student to listen to a variety of French and Spanish speakers, then to attempt to imitate them, and, finally, to play back his own performance and compare it with the master recording. By means of drill exercises the student may master struc- tures of the language which have been presented in the classroom. Recordings also provide him with additional informa- tion concerning the culture of the coun- tries being studied. Each student is scheduled for lab work- two periods of approximately twenty minutes every seven days and has the opportunity for supplementary work dur- ing his study periods and after school hours. [105] History Department The Norwood Senior High School His- tory Program is designed to develop well informed citizens by providing more depth and continuity in subject areas and more variety in course selection. Courses have been offered to the stu- dent on the advanced level in Western Civilization and American History I. Upon successful completion of these courses, stu- dents will advance to Western Civilization II and American History II. Those students who are taking American History I and II will be encouraged to take the Advanced Placement Examination which will, in some colleges, give them six credit hours toward degree work. For the college preparatory student West- ern Civilization I or American Government is offered in the Freshman year. Sopho- mores will take Western Civilization II, and Juniors will take United States His- tory. At the Senior year level, the college preparatory student has a wider selection of courses. The student may select a ' ny two of the following courses, which will be given during two terms in the academic year: Economics, Russian Studies, Inter- national Relations or Recent United States History. For those students who do not plan to continue their education beyond the sec- ondary school level, courses are offered in American Government in the Freshman year, Geography in the Sophomore year, United States History in the Junior year and a choice of either Contemporary Af- fairs or Economics in the Senior year. This year each student was given a com- plete course outline of every subject in the Social Studies area. It is hoped that these outlines will help both the students and the teachers in understanding the direction, purpose, sequence and requirements in each course. [106] Science Department Our step upward this year was a really giant one. First we offered Biology to a group of selected Freshmen and present reports point to a success in this venture. Secondly, we offered another in the spec- trum of Biological Sciences Curriculum Studies offerings, this time the Yellow Version, a cellular approach. Much has been learned about the cell since the elec- tron microscope has been used in order to increase the understanding of the actual working of the cell, particularly how he- redity becomes a chemical problem. The Blue Version approach searches the actual chemistry of the cell in order to arrive at reasons for cell activity. Also in Biology we offered a second year of advanced study, with the hope that three years of science would precede the election of this in the future. Chemistry continued with the CHEM Study course and we are due to .offer a sec- ond year in 1966-67. We continued with the Physical Sciences Study Committee (PSSC) course, seven periods weekly. Earth Science is feeling the lack of space most seriously as the school grows. This subject has the greatest number of stu- dents and yet it has to be taught in almost every room on the floor. Let us hope for a section in the new addition, maybe a planetarium? Our much maligned rotating schedule of classes is made to order (literally) for the science department, as it allows an extra long laboratory period in addition to a regularly scheduled extra period once a week— two in Physics. This allows an ap- proach to true experiment in our Sciences and should give students a better appreci- ation of laboratory work. The department is growing annually and students may select from a wide variety of courses to prepare for our science-minded world. [107] Business Department Despite popular opinion that automa- tion is about to eliminate the need for office personnel, statistics publised by the Department of Labor show quite the con- trary. The need for well-trained stenog- raphers, typists, bookkeepers, and secre- taries has never been greater. The pro- jected future need is said to be critical. The business department at Norwood High School offers a variety of subject matter in an attempt to help our young people to obtain a good training in those areas considered to be important by busi- ness management. Our business curriculum offers courses to provide a thorough train- ing in shorthand, transcription, typewrit- ing and bookkeeping. In addition, an intro- duction to a variety of business machines, filing, and office automation is provided. The courses are planned to permit some individuals to take courses that will satis- fy personal needs as well as more complete CQurses for vocational requirements. Many of our students continue their education beyond the secondary school level; we are pleased to state that many obtain gainful employment upon graduation from high school. Through the fine cooperation of the U. S. Civil Service Commission, for the past sev- eral years we have been able to offer civil service examinations here at Norwood High School. [108] Home Economics Department The Home Economics Department this year offered more than four hundred girls an opportunity to develop themselves as responsible and deft individuals through class experiences which can be put into practice in daily living. They learned the fundamentals of good nutrition and the planning of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners for various age groups and meal situations. They followed good and safe housekeeping practices and learned the rules of correct table setting for different types of meals. The girls were taught to use the sewing machine and patterns. Each made a sam- pler of hand stitches and learned to fit and alter garments while constructing them. In studying fashion and good grooming they became more aware of the principles which govern personal appearance. Some classes worked on tailored garments and learned the techniques of making coats and suits. Those who followed Home Economics through to the senior year enjoyed the ex- periences of flower arrangement and cake decorating. Speakers on these subjects came to the classes and gave professional dem- onstrations to the girls. Many girls took advantage of the Elective Home Economics class and of Home Management where they were introduced to many other aspects of home and family care. [109] Music and Art Department MUSIC DEPARTMENT The musical curriculum was substan- tially broadened this year. Upperclassmen were able to elect courses in Music Theory, Music Appreciation and Voice Training. The offerings in music have now increased to such an extent that any student inter- ested in continuing his music study at a University or Conservatory would have the necessary preparation. Once again General Music was taken by all incoming Freshmen. Freshmen took part in some of the School ' s musical programs by participating in the Freshman Chorus. As always, the Music Department in- vited direct participation in some musical activity such as the Concert Band, the Stage Band, the Choralaires or the Con- cert Choir by as many members of the stu- dent body as possible. True appreciation and enjoyment of music has always been attained easiest by being an active per- former rather than a passive listener. ART DEPARTMENT The provisions of the Art Department were arranged so that all students of mixed abilities and talents could apply themselves to a variety of creative experiences. These were realized through a wide range of art media. Such material and methods as block printing, sculpture, oil painting, drawing, ceramics, and many others provide the stu- dent with the opportunity to develop a personal interest in art. In addition to the general art program, students desiring to go on in their art studies either at a university or profes- sional art school, found that the art pro- gram provided them with necessary prep- aration. Students desiring to further their back- ground knowledge of the arts and human- ities learned to appreciate great art and to recognize the work and style of outstand- ing painters. [110] Library and Reading READING DEPARTMENT The Reading Department at Norwood High School had a diversified program this year. The purpose of the reading class was to develop every student ' s reading ability to his maximum, as well as to review and refine his reading skills. Within this comprehensive program courses were offered to upperclassmen on an elective basis. A required course en- titled Study Skills was designed to equip the incoming Freshmen students with tech- niques for rewarding study. In addition, small classes and some individual instruc- tion were given for remediation. As a basic tool for learning in today ' s competitive world, reading is becoming an even greater necessity for academic excel- lence and intellectual growth. SCHOOL LIBRARY The school library continued to grow in number of volumes and readers. This year the textbook storage area was at last re- moved with a consequent increase in space for people and books. The pressures on the library created by the demands of the new curricula for more extensive research and wider reading will soon necessitate a reconsideration of the library facilities. The annual course of instruction in the use of the library was given to the fresh- men English classes. Mrs. Carl Pearson of the Morrill Memorial Library cooperated in the program with the high school li- brarian. Audio visual aids were incorpor- ated into the program this year and helped to increase the effectiveness of the lessons. The members of the Library Service Club gave invaluable assistance in many areas. These young people were responsible for the physical preparation of new books and the repair of worn volumes. They also staffed the circulation desk and checked attendance. These are essential and time- consuming tasks in any library; if it were not for the Service Club, an increased li- brary staff would be necessary. till] Physical Education Department Our program in physical education is an integral part of the high school education and it has been expanding rapidly in re- cent years. Participation by all students in some aspects of this program, curricular and extra-curricular, is our aim. We also aim to develop correct attitudes towar ds play and set up proper standards of sports- manship. Physical education classes are held two periods a week tor Seniors and Juniors and three periods a week tor Sophomores and Freshmen. Intramural sports offered for girls are field hockey, basketball, softball, archery, tennis and gymnastics. The boys intramur- al program consists of soccer, touch foot- ball, tennis, basketball, gymnastics, weight training, and wrestling. The interscholastic program, also a very important part of our physical education setup, is conducted for girls in field hockey, basketball, tennis, softball, and gymnastics: and for the boys, in football, hockey, bas- ketball, baseball, indoor and outdoor track, cross country, golf, tennis, and wrestling. Each year the opportunities offered to the student body are expanded and re- fined and we feel that the school is well represented in most fields of physical ac- tivity, with a bright future ahead. L112] Industrial Arts Department Industrial Arts Course was designed to help prepare individuals for meeting the requirements of a technological culture. The application of an idea from its incep- tion in the mind of the learner included planning, designing, laying out, cutting, shaping, fabrication, and finishing. Mechanical Drawing provided a basic knowledge of the techniques and skills necessary to produce satisfactory plans which were used in the various shop courses. The development of pencil and in- strument skills in technical sketching, ma- chine design, pictorial representation, architectural drawing, furniture design, sheet metal layout, electrical-electronic planning, and tool design was stressed. Graphic Arts trained the students in the skills of designing and producing suitable forms which were printed on the offset press. In Electronics, basic circuits and simple electronic devices were designed and con- structed. The proper use of testing equip- ment was stressed. Metalwork gave the pupil an opportunity to set up and operate some of the machines found in modern machine shops and sheet metal plants. Metal-spinning, art metal, metal forming, and arc welding were in- cluded in this course. Also, in this shop course, Automotive Mechanics was intro- duced to the more advanced students.

Peabody School consists of a group of interested students chosen to gather and report the news of their respective departments. Each reporter writes up the activities of his or her department for the press copy which is published periodically throughout the school ye ar. There are also reporters-at- large who report general school news. After the copy has been edited and typed, it is released for publishing in the Norwood Messenger and other area news- papers. The column, well-known as Pea- body Personalities, keeps the alumni and the public informed about the activities, the students, and the staff of the school. This year the Press Club has been under the direction of Mrs. Zaila Souther, with Miss Rose Morrison and Miss Marjorie McCready in charge of the typing.

Peabody Co-operative Association Every student of the Henry O. Peabody School automatically becomes a member of the Student Co-Operative Association at the time of his registration with the school. The Association is an organization by means of which the students govern them- selves with the co-operation of the Director and Faculty of the School. The Student Co- Operative Association, through its elected officers, homeroom delegates, and alter- nates, endeavors at all times to foster a spirit of acceptance of responsibilities as well as privileges, so that a fine spirit of friendship and of mutual pride will exist throughout the school as a whole. The elected officers for the year 1965-66: President, Barbara Shagoury, Norwood; Vice-President, Jeannette Bryant, Canton; Secretary, Jean Purdon, Walpole; Treas- urer, Beverly Moran, Randolph. The fac- ulty sponsors have been Mrs. James H. Butler, Jr., and Miss Rose H. Morrison. The school activities which are sponsored by the Student Co-Operative Association are pre-election rallies, elections of officers and homeroom representatives, a Get- Acquainted Tea in the fall, Operation Santa Claus , a spring dance, and our an- nual Class Day which we call our Step Party which takes place outdoors in June.

Donovan, J.indblom, T. Donovan .. Almost There 9 Class of 1967 - Junior Year Along with autumn leaves and brisk winds, September brought the Class of 1967 back to the Hill . While thoughts of Chemistry, Cicero and Algebra II some- times plagued and baffled us, our out- standing thoughts were: Juniors! Upper classmen! Class officers were carefully elected, with consideration to all the functions we would be a part of this year. President Tom Cas- sidy has certainly done a great job making our junior year a memorable one. Paul Boulis, our capable Vice-President was very busy all year, keeping everything rolling smoothly. Paula Babel was re-elected sec- retary, after taking a one year rest. Carol Boulis tried her hardest to keep us all broke while she augmented our treasury. Athletic Association representatives were chosen with regard to participation in ath- letic events and sportmanship. Lois Lind- blom was elected Girls ' A. A. representative and Tom Donovan, the un-sung hero of the gridiron was elected Boys ' A. A. rep- resentative. Our junior boys helped in rating N.H.S. high on every sports poll. Led by three out- standing junior cheerleaders: Janet Sulli- van, Kathy Fuller, and Carol Memmo, the cheering sections at all sports events were very enthusiastic. Next in our eventful year came March winds, April showers, and our anxiously awaited Junior Prom! Through joint work and cooperation, our officers, aided by zealous committeemen, made our prom an unforgettable night in our lives. With Carousel as our theme, we had a whirl of a time. With June came final examinations and a farewell to the Class of 1966. We had almost reached the peak but we had to settle for being almost there .

It was easier to get right down to work and into the main stream of things with a year of valuable experience behind us. Our self-confidence and savoir-faire had increased and the timid attitude of our freshman days had been lost forever. Again came the challenging and exciting privilege of electing class officers. Chosen as best qualified to take on the honor- able roles were: John Cronin, President; Richard Machado, Vice-President; Alexis Levitsky, Girls ' Treasurer; James Phalen, Boys ' Treasurer; Dorothy Marzuolo, Sec- retary; Stephen Donovan, Boys ' A.A.; and Nancy Sweeney, Girls ' A.A. On November 18, our Sophomore Party was held in the school cafeteria, which had been gaily adorned with colorful decora- tions. We were all delighted to be enter- tained by the music of the newy-organized high school Stage Band. In addition, hid- den talent was revealed in the lion act by Marie Payne. Enjoyed by faculty and students alike was the extra rhythm brought in by the folk combo, consisting of Stephen Donovan, Robert Orme, Lenny Rental, and Richard Machado with his fine guitar work. Of course, the night would not have been complete without Barbara Lan- zoni ' s singing of her by now traditional, There ' s a Summer Place . Now that we have been at Norwood High for nearly two years, we know what the scoop is and exactly what is expected of us. We have strived to meet and surpass that expectation. Hopefully each year at N.H.S. will find us directing all our ener- gies to surpass the previous one. Christine Tonning [131] SOPHOMORES m FRESHMEN Freshman Class Officers — Class of 1969 Reynolds, Fischer, Ostrom, Clark, Poniatowski, Levine Young and Hopeful Class of 1969 - Freshman Year There we were in early September, at the bottom of the Hill, all ready to work our way up to the top! This first year was one filled with many new experiences, some frightening, and some exciting. The major event of the year for us was the election of our class officers, a likely group and one which we hope will go on to be re-elected in the coming year. Chosen were: President Barry Levine, Vice-Presi- dent Marylee Clark, Secretary Ann Ponia- towski, Treasurers Janet Ostrom and John Fitzpatrick, and A.A. Representatives Linda Reynolds and Steve Fischer. They have certainly fulfilled our expectations. We held our Freshman Party in October. The two bands entertaining us were The Hix — Bobby Lindfors, Johnny Fitzpatrick, Dale McConkey, and Bobby Susi and The Aces — Bobby Hall, Jimmy Abel, Charlie Carchedi, Bruce Wheat, and Freddy Veccio. Designated by the audience ' s applause as the best performers that night, The Aces won the prize, a tape recorder. In sports, our Freshman teams fared ex- ceedingly well. The Junior Varsity team, spurred on by first-stringers Bill Mannion, Clyde McCray, Tom Gugliotta, Walt Litch- field, Jack Adelmann, Dave Mogan, and Steve Fischer, tied for second place. The basketball team, capably captained by Walt Litchfield, played twelve games and lost only two. Our first string players were Walt Litchfield, Clyde McCray, Steve Fischer, Doug Fischer, and Norm Sacco, who were co-champs in the Frosh division of the Bay State League. Under the expert lead of co-captains John Ranalli and Artie Harris, the hockey team had a record of four wins, two losses, and four ties. The first line was made up of John Ranalli, Jimmy Scott, and Gary Sortevik; on lead-off defense were Tommy Taylor and Jeff Songin. They ranked second in their league. Outstanding students, those who achieved Honors with Distinction this year, were: Richard Bayer, Robert Burns, Virginia Burns, Kelvin Chin, Jeanne Donnelly, Bar- bara Eisener, Patricia Fanning, Sean Flah- erty, James Hynes, Karla Johnson, Barry Levine, Roy Lydon, Richard Shay, Judith Sheelmer, Barbara Tausey, and Donald Twomey. Not a bad record at all, for a group of beginners. Susan Nolan [136] Our Views on Viet Nam One of the productive projects of the Norwood High School Student Council this year was gathering signatures for a petition in support of our government ' s policy in Viet Nam and our fighting men in that country. The petition was presented to Speaker of the House John McCormack and Congressman James A. Burke. In a letter to President Johnson Mr. McCor- mack stated : I have had a visit today from a Committee representing the Hyde Park High School of Hyde Park, Massachusetts, and ' the Norwood High School of Norwood, Massachusetts, in which they presented to me and Congressman James A. Burke the within petitions in support of our Gov- ernment ' s policy in Viet Nam and ' our fighting men in that country because they are fighting to protect a country that needs our aid in order to retain her freedom. ' This is one of the finest examples of loyalty on the part of high school students that could be extended anywhere throughout our country. I am sending you the within petitions which the members of this fine committee left with ' Jim ' Burke and myself, because I know it will bring happiness to you to note the approximately 2500 students who signed the petitions in these two high schools and who appreciate the meaning and significance of the Viet Nam and Southeast Asian situation, and the peti- tions show their loyal support of your leadership. I know, Mr. President, that you will agree with ' Jim ' Burke and myself that the action of this Committee and the students who signed the within petitions is an outstanding manifestation of loyalty to their country, and support of your far-seeing and courageous leadership.

The Executive Board consisted of Peter Black, Susan Dobson, Frank Danieli, John Cronin, James Balutis, Thomas Don- ovan, and Joanne Susi. A Student Council Convention in May- nard was attended by six of our delegates who brought back many ideas in the fields of allocations for funds, social activities, election commissions, student-faculty rela- tions, and communication between the stu- dent council representatives and students. The Student Council Dance was held on November 19th with The Stage Band of Norwood High School playing for the event. The money from this dance was given to the Foreign Exchange Fund. On January 27, 1966, 44 American Field Service students arrived in Norwood and the next day they attended one of the bi- monthly meetings of the Student Council, and after visiting classes, these guests par- ticipated in a reception sponsored by our Council. The Student Council sponsored the an- nual Faculty-Student Game again this year. This has always been a highlight of the year, and this year was no exception. The proceeds were given to the Foreign Ex- change Fund. Another project was the school sponsor- ship of an entrant in the Jewish National War Veterans ' Leadership Contest. Andrea Bremer represented Norwood High School in the contest. P resident Bevivino later represented the school at the Student Gov- ernment Day at the State House on April 1st, 1966. The Council extends heartiest thanks to Miss Hubbard and Mr. Buscone for their active support and ardent interest in the Student Council undertakings.

The Election Commission Performed Tirelessly One group of students at Norwood High School which might well be classed as the In-group , consisted of carefully selected citizens who were members of the Election Commission. The Election Commission was composed of the students who were elected from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior members of the Student Council. It operated under the c apable guidance of Miss Hubbard, the faculty adviser. Officers of the Student Council worked with the commission when the pressure of time or the number of elections in progress made it necessary. The function of the group was to super- vise all school elections and to assume re- sponsibility for efficient and honest pro- cedures. It set dates, received nominations, supervised the balloting and counting of all votes which were cast, and published the results of all elections on the bulletin boards. The Co-Chairmen of this year ' s Com- mission were Robert Donahue, and Frank Danieli, both members of the graduating class. The Election Commission has always been a very important part of school life and its members have earned and deserved faculty and student approval for their ef- forts which entailed considerable work that had to be done outside of school hours, and which was frequently lengthy and tire- some but eventually rewarding.

Her team-mate on Norwood ' s Var- sity affirmative team was David Gillette, who engaged in debate for the first time this year, but at varsity level competence. The Negative team was anchored by John McAuliffe, a second year debater with a Hair for incisive cross-examination. Two other squad members alternated at the second Negative spot. They were Susan Murray and Christian Maciejewski. Susan debated last year and was our varsity member at Wellesley against Framingham North. Chris was a beginner who learned well and quickly — a natural. Edward Cafferty and Ann Parsons were upper classmen who debated for the first time this year. They formed, along with two freshmen, Nancy Adams and Doreen Maloney, the Novice team. The results of Novice and Varsity debates are considered in league standings. The Bay State League was formed early this year and Norwood High School joined the league, resigning its standing in the South-Shore League. There were approxi- mately seven league debates per year plus inter-league contests, regional, and state tournaments. There were also public speak- ing contests held throughout the year for which the student with debating experi- ence had an obvious advantage. [148] Math Team Front Row: Cox, Mitchell, Elvey, Stitt, Maggio Rear Row: Mr. James Sullivan (adv.), Immonen, Craig, Drost, Rakauskas, Mr. Buscone (adv.) Senior High School Math Brains The Norwood Senior High School Math Team of 1965-66 participated in competi- tive meets with nine regional schools. In total, there were fifty high schools in Mass- achusetts which vied for the championship. Each team consisted of one Sophomore, two Juniors, and two Seniors. At these meets mathematically-minded pupils found themselves involved in a rigorous battle of wits and ability, yet a friendly atmosphere prevailed. The invigorating contacts made with students from other schools, who shared interests made each member of the team realize that although winning is a triumph, it is not all that counts. Each teammate also gained insight into the teaching methods and procedures of other schools. The various teams ' home schools alternated in sponsoring each match. We were very proud to be hosts at one of these meets this year. There were five different categories of mathematics: arithmetic, algebra 1, geo- metry, algebra 2, and trigonometry from which each student chose three in which to work. The contests measured the under- standing of basic mathematical concepts, the ability to reason, and the adaptability of an individual to work rapidly and accu- rately while under pressure. All in all, by the end of the year, each contestant had learned that fair play and good sportsman- ship are just as essential in the field ol numbers as on any field of sports. [149] National Honor Society Front Row:Hemman, Miller, Cosrello, Vasilauskas, Aicardi, Rakauskas Rear Row: Immonen, Mitchell, Bowen, Mrs. Coburn, Adviser, Morgen, Staller, Elvey Our Own Right Honorables The Norwood Senior High School Chap- ter of The National Honor Society was es- tablished in 1960 and has had a total or 50 members. As its name implies, it is a branch of the national organization estab- lished by secondary school principals to stimulate scholarship in the high schools of America. It recognizes character, service, leadership, and scholarship. All four qual- ities must be displayed by a member. How- ever, in our school the eligibility is first determined by honor roll status. A stu- dent must be named to the honor roll five times in succession, including three first honors for juniors and two first honors for seniors. Members are elected from both junior and senior classes at the end of the second marking period. To maintain mem- bership, one must continue honor roll status. Pins, which are the same all over the United States, have been presented each year by the Norwood Chamber of Com- merce and may be won only by members in good standing. At graduation special notice is given to these people on the pro- grams, and they wear gold tassels on their caps. Each spring an induction ceremony is held at an assembly to which juniors and seniors are invited. The following seniors were elected to membership during their junior years: Nancy Aicardi, Pamela Bowen, Nancy Cos- tello, Carol Miller, Margaret Mitchell, Ellen Morgen, Barbara Staller, Joan Vasil- auskas, Loftin Elvey, Stephen Hemman, Roy Immonen, and George Rakauskas.

The first big step was the election of officers, and the members chose the follow- ing students as their leaders: President, Marc Orent; Vice-President, Richard Shay; Secretary, Maureen Tamulionis; and Trea- surer, Peter Gray. Mr. Frost was the faculty sponsor. As the first few meetings were mainly for organization, the main part of the work was accomplished during the sec- ond semester. Several meetings were spent in getting acquainted both with each other and also with the Biology offices and the Growing Room which played big parts in our meet- ings. Also the presence of many domesti- cated and undomesticated animals was soon made known to us all, and we learned much from observing their actions and re- actions and from the necessity of caring for their needs and policing their quarters. We were privileged to have guest-speak- ers from different hospitals and schools who lectured on various phases of Biology. From within our own Club many students showed their skills and accomplishments in various fields by the presentation of projects. One of the biggest events of the year was the field trip which was for most of us a new and different experience. Next year we hope to add other activities to our club projects and to do more original experi- mentation and study in this field.

Le Cercle Francais La seance est ouverte. To members of of the French Club, known as Le Cercle Fran?ais, this was the familiar expression which opened each meeting of the club. Gym B, the new headquarters, accommo- dated the sixty club members adequately, if not well. Because most students had af- ter-school commitments, meetings were held during activities period, usually every second and fourth Friday of the month. The club officers were: Marilyn Johnson, president; vice-president, Stephanie Puzin; treasurer, Anne Butler; and secretary, Nan- cy Sulkaka. Other officers were Linda Mag- gio, Ellen Breen, and Carol Ann Walker. The club also maintained several commit- tees: the Publicity Committee, the Advisory Committee, the Information Committee, and the Refreshment Committee. All of these groups worked for the benefit of the club. During each session, after the meeting was opened, the American flag was saluted in the French language and then the vari- ous reports of the club ' s officers and com- mittees were read. Discussions and plans followed, and the meetings closed with the singing of La Marseillaise. The purpose of Le Cercle Fran§ais was to afford a pleasant non-classroom atmos- phere to facilitate conversational knowl- edge of the French language. It also in- formed the members of attractive aspects of French culture and civilization. Le Cercle Francais provided occasional social functions. One of the highlights was the viewing of films of Miss Hanna ' s trip to France. Other events enjoyed were a visit to the French Center in Boston, a dinner at a French restaurant, and a French play. Le Cercle Francais bids fair to become one of the most successful and progressive clubs at Norwood High School. C ' est ca. [152] ftflll f ' Spanish Club Front Row: Vlahos.

The first meet- ing set the pace for the future events. The turnout was large, with participating stu- dents from each class. Interest grew after the first meeting, and the membership soon increased. The club now consists of 45 members. After the initial start the club got down to serious business and planned for the coming year. A parliamentary pro- cedure was introduced as a basis for the election of officers. James Robertson was chosen President; Leonard Curran became Vice President; Martha O ' Leary was elec- ted as the Recording Secretary; and John Wilson was made Treasurer. Enthusiastically, the new Spanish Club welcomed Betty Grullon, Norwood ' s for- eign Exchnge Student from the Dominican Republic as our Authentic Spanish Club Member. She gave many exciting and interesting ideas to help formulate the club. An interesting and educational acto about the life and customs of the people of the Dominican Republic was presented to the club by certain students, with Betty adding her personal anecdotes and experi- ences. The club planned many special events to be carried on throughout the year. A special delegation went to the Cardinal Cushing Center for Spanish-Speaking peo- ple in Boston to deliver toys and presents during the Yuletide season. It was a grati- fying and rewarding experience. This year ' s club hopes that it has established a firm foundation in order that the El Club Espanol may continuar y prosperar en los aflos que vienen. pssj Hilltopper Editorial Staff Front Row: Crowley, Maguire, Larkin, Jankowski Rear Row: Sullivan, Levitsky, Stitt, Flaherty, Mitchell, Drew, Miss Werner, Adviser The New Hilltopper Was Organized After many years of being first and fore- most a news paper, the Hilltopper was organized this year with a slightly dif- ferent purpose in mind: The aim which the staff set was that of publishing a paper more worthy of Norwood Senior High School, with in-depth reporting on news, sports, and features. Sports on the Hill sometimes proceeded faster than the pub- lication, in which case a clear picture of the season in summary articles was pre- sented. The Hilltopper Literary Depart- ment was expanded into a Writers ' Work- shop so that students might feel free to contribute articles and receive recognition for their talents. In this endeavor the co- operation of the English teachers, who were ever on the alert for outstanding work done in their classes was greatly ap- preciated. All artistic work of a two-dimensional nature— sketches, drawings, photographs- was eagerly sought. Because it was felt that this publication should be a place for stu- dents to express their views on school, local, and national matters, a Viewpoint column was included. Also in this area were letters to the editor of which more were received than could be published. Under the direction of Miss Werner and Editor-in-Chief, Andrea Bremer, the staff tried to have quality rather than quantity [154] as the chief requirement for Hilltopper work, even though this meant fewer is- sues. In an effort to make the Hilltopper available to more students by bringing the price down, a new method of publication was tried. This off-set duplication process was carried out entirely by the printing department at Norwood High, and it met with some degree of success. Many problems were encountered aside from the inevitable late articles. Because of the large population at Norwood High, there was no permanent room that could be set up as a newspaper office. This re- sulted in difficulties concerning where meetings were to be held and where files were to be kept. The Hilltopper was also plagued by an acute shortage of skilled typists. More than once in the hours after school the patter of typewriters could be heard as staff members of all departments worked with devotion to produce the pages of even three inch columns. B efore each issue came out there was a week of anticipation while the paper was printed. The circulation committee worked its hardest, putting signs and announce- ments at every intersection and around each corner. A few days of sales, and then work began again on the next issue. Despite difficulties and crises, though, it was fun, and most of the staff will be back again next year, hopefully, with newer and better ideas for a more stimulating Hill- topper with broader courage.

They are as follows: Peter Black, president; George O ' Brien, vice-president; Gayle Kelley, sec- retary: and Noralie Cox, treasurer. The faculty adviser is Mr. Usevich. The club ' s main purposes are to effect a closer rela- tionship with the Town Chapter of Amer- ican Field Service, to make the foreign ex- change students ' visits enjoyable and profit- able for all concerned and to raise funds for the Town Chapter of the A.F.S. In No- vember the Student Council, with the help of the Foreign Exchange Club ran a very successful dance. This year from Santo Domingo, Domin- ican Republic, seventeen year old Betty Grullon was a member of the Senior Class. When asked in an interview what she liked most in the United States, her reply was, The American ' kids ' , they ' re all so help- ful and friendly towards me. Betty ' s humor and sincere warmth added to the enjoyment of everyone at the high school. She has been named as an honorary member of the Foreign Exchange Club, and she has spoken to various church groups and town organizations and has been a wonderful representative for her country ' s young people. The embryo Foreign Exchange Club has had a very successful year, and its mem- bers hope that this is only the beginning of a rewarding and fruitful life for the organi- zation and its enthusiastic members. [156] Drama Club Front Row: Zimlicki, Ledig. Bowen, Obuchon, Phalen, Mitchell, Crowley, Krauss Rear Row: Miss Maraghy, Memmo, Denzen, Hemman, Flaherty, Gillett, Loughlin, Puzin, Donnelly, Dyer, Johnson All Their World A Stage During the course of the school year the students of Norwood High School gave sev- eral plays and assemblies which required the assistance of students trained in the arts of make-up, set design, and stage light- ing. The Drama Club was formed on the Hill this year in order to provide training and experience in the various phases of dramatic art for the students. The Drama Club held regular work- shop sessions in which the fundamentals of Modern Drama were taught. Students were encouraged to use their creative tal- ents in the production of one act plays and skits. The members of the club explored any of the fields of drama that interested them. Some enjoyed the expressive freedom of acting; others preferred to learn the skills involved in make-up and set con- struction. One of the most important addi- tions to the program of the Drama Club this year was the almost exclusive use of student directors and stage managers. This year the Drama Club was able to provide a committee to arrange the make- up for the Senior play. All fifty of the Club members took an active part in the state- wide competitions held in the spring. In the last five years the United States has seen a sort of cultural revolution. More people are turning for pleasure to the fine arts. Drama has become more pop- ular than ever. To citizens in this society a meaningful background in drama is es- sential. The Norwood High Drama Club provides students with a deep understand- ing and an intelligent appreciation of the most ancient mariner of story-telling— drama.

This year the club skyrocketed to a record high in membership. Under the able leadership of Mr. John A. Sullivan, students explored the many phases of photography, both as an art and as a science. The major part of the program this year was a monthly contest. Each month mem- bers had an opportunity to compete with fellow club members. Competition was held on different subjects each month. Photo- graphs were judged by members of the faculty for composition, technique, and subject matter. A cash prize was awarded to the student with the most points at the end of the year. Winners of the monthly contest receive for first place 5.25 points, second place 4.25 points, third place 3.25 points, fourth place 2.25 points, fifth place 125 points, and for entering a picture one receives .25 points. Our calendar of monthly subjects was as fol- lows: October, Human Interest; November, Portraits; December, Portraits Mounted; January, Candids; February, Snow Pic- tures; March, Trick Pictures; April, Ani- mals; May, 35 mm color slides. During No- vember we had the use of professional equipment owned by Purdy Photographers of Boston, Photographers for the Year Book and the Senior Class. Our officers this year were Paul Kady, President; and Robert Ekstrand, Treasurer. As a result of this year ' s work in photog- raphy, all members feel that this is a great and rewarding hobby. 1158] Future Homemakers ' Club Front Row: (Left to right) Billotti, Santoro, Sawkiewicz, White, Krauss, 1 ' alleiko, Grover Rear Row: Mrs. Blaydon, Anastasia, Shius, Snioth, Roco, Saraca, Kck, Contannon, West, McCarthy, Anderson, Miss Walters Future Rulers of the Home Scene The Future Homemakers of America Club was initiated this year at Norwood High School. Our Chapter is affiliated with both the state and national associations and together we all work toward the same goals. Our biggest project during the first year was that of establishing a well-organized club. This involved writing our own con- stitution of laws, electing officers who would be aware of their duties and respon- sibilities, and studying the ways in which other effective FHA groups work. At one of our very first meetings we were fortunate to have several colored slides which were taken by the FHA chapter at Hadley, Massachusetts. This is one of the most active groups in the state and so it was very helpful for us to observe their various programs on chapter, state, and na- tional levels and to profit thereby. There were several topics which had been chosen and outlined for national projects of work for all FHA members over a five year period. Morals and Manners was the one which was emphasized for the first year and so we focused our activities around that unit. Some chapters have found panel discussions an effective way of hand- ling such debates; others have invited guests to speak to them on a particular phase of Morals and Manners and have then had a question and answer session. We tried during this first year to es- tablish an active group which would stim- ulate all its members toward a greater in- terest in home and family life and which ultimately would mak e them efficient and understanding homemakers some day.

The melody is carried by the thirty-three fem- inine voices of the members of the Nor- wood High School Concert Choir. During its three years of existence the Concert Choir has provided the student body with an opportunity to hear and ap- preciate the beauty of fine choral music. Under the direction of Mrs. Roberta Frank the group performs difficult classical choral arrangements composed by Handel, Mozart, as well as many more contemporary com- posers. The Choir ' s repertoire also includes a number of folk, songs and spirituals. The Concert Choir had a heavy sched- ule this year which included two choral concerts, one in December, one in April, and several special appearances for hospi- tals and civic organizations. Concert Choir can now be taken three times a week during the school day for academic credit. Interested girls are se- lected by audition at the beginning of the school year.

The purpose of the Stage Band was to broaden the scope of the student ' s mu- sical development into the world of mod- ern music. The band set out to emulate the sounds of Benny Goodman, Duke El- lington, Count Basie, etc. Auditions were held and the most talented and advanced students were selected (18 musicians.) After six weeks of lehearsal, the stage band played their premiere performance at the Norwood Junior High School. Some of the selections included, The Peanut Ven- dor, Wonderland by Night, Tonight, Law- rence of Arabia, and a few numbers of the Beatles ' latest hits. The band was en- thusiastically received by the faculty and students alike. The next performance was held at the Norwood Senior High School. This assembly was a success as it was full- heartedly accepted by the student body. Other performances included an appear- ance in the Southeastern District Music Festival and the Spring Concert. It should be noted that a special highlight of 1966 was the Stage Band ' s appearance at the James Caldwell High School in West Caldwell, New Jersey. This performance was in conjunction with the Senior High School Band ' s annual exchange concert program.

Two sections o£ carefully-selected college preparatory seniors meet one afternoon a week to dis- cuss the various course texts, which include Plato ' s The Republic, More ' s Utopia, Bel- lamy ' s Looking Backward, Huxley ' s Brave New World, Orwell ' s 1984, and several others. The purpose of the course is to give to twenty seniors some experience in the seminar method of dealing with com- plex ideas. There is no formal presenta- tion as such, because the purpose of the course is not to have the instructor teach the students about the books, but rather to have them teach one another by ex- changing their own ideas, with guidance. In recent years this particular offering has become increasingly popular, to the extent that it has been necessary to increase the number of sections taught from one to two. As an ever greater percentage of Norwood Senior High School students goes on to college, we hope that this course, which offers two hours ' credit, will con- tinue to prepare at least a few of our sen- iors each year for some of the very different types of experiences that they will en- counter as they continue their education. Perhaps the most important value gained by those who take this seminar is not so much the knowledge of the ideas expressed in these books and their relevance to our contemporary society, important though these values are, but an increased respect for both the ideas of others and the pro- cess of free, open, and frank discussion by which these ideas can best be under- stood. Of our intent, if not always of our re- sults, we feel sure that Socrates and Plato would have approved.

An impressive 16-0 victory over another favored Framingham North team followed. This set the tempo for the season as the Norwood offense showed flashes of bril- liance under the leadership of Chris Effertz, Kevin Raftery, Tom Shea, Mike Griffin, and Joe Smith; and the great defensive unit led by All-Scholastic Captain John Solomon rocked the invaders into fumbling five times. Also setting a pattern was the tie-one, win-one performance. Norwood followed in this direction for its first six games. It tied a heavily favored Wellesley team 0-0, with Norwood ' s great defense again hold- ing a highly vaunted offense to only 39 net yards and forcing Wellesley to fum- ble six times. Braintree was the next victim of the new Norwood powerhouse, 12-0. Fifth in line was Framingham South, winners of four straight and touted as the probable Bay State League Champions. Norwood brought the Flyers back to earth, however, by overcoming a 12 point half-time deficit to tie again, 12-12. In probably the best game of the year, Norwood met Natick High School, the longest undefeated— untied school in the state. The Gulla-men were well-coached and eager for the game, and defeated Na- tick 9-6. (Continued on Page 244) [180] Basketball Team Front Row: Coach Hartnett, T.

Donovan, Wysocki, Rukstalis, Spierdowis, Craig, Lydon:, McGill A Bushel of Baskets Under the leadership of Coach Ken Nolet the Norwood Senior High Basketball team earned its first Tech Tourney berth in ten years this past season. The Blue-and-White started off the year with a four-game winning streak which was broken by a 57-48 upset victory for Braintree. Paced by Captain Mike Griffin and the league ' s high scorer, Chris Effertz, the team moved back into the win column with victories over Walpole (74-52), Milton (67-64), Wellesley (67-51), and Dedham (67-48). Dick Shumski in one of his best games on the boards, pulled the team back for a tie for the top spot with a 52-49 victory over Braintree. Norwood had a hard time staying up with Braintree though, as they lost a heartbreaker to Framingham North 67-62. The team managed to clinch a spot in the Tech Tourney with an easy romp over Milton 66-57. Coach Nolet ended his sea- son in second place with a record of 14 wins and only 4 losses. In a game which few Norwoodites saw, Misson High rallied in the last four min- utes of play to down Norwood 63-57 in the first round of the Tourney at Boston Gardens. Wearing the Blue and White for the last time this year are: Chris Effertz, with a better than 25 point coverage, Captain Mike Griffin, Dick Shumski, Steve Hem- man, Roy Immonen and Charlie Bevivino. Coach Kenneth Nolet did a great job as coach with boys he had been bringing along in his few years on the Hill and he will continue to do so with players like Bob Nelson and Paul Snellgrove and a strong JV team coming up next year. 1181] HHQLLX JUMPERS 1Y DIMS ' 1 Hockey Team Front Row: Higgins, Oberlander, Donahue, Hebner, Hasenfus, Moloney Rear Row: Coach Wheeler, J. Ranalli, Cronin, Reddick, Shea, Clifford, M. Ranalli, Donovan, Pascoe, Coach Gormley, Coach Mooney Bay State Champs After a slow start, this year ' s hockey team went undefeated for the remaining fourteen games to take the coveted Bay State League Championship. Coach Don Wheeler captured his second title in his fourth year as the most successful coach on the Hill. The Nuggets ' overall record of 16-3-2 speaks for itself. The highlights of the season were: the big goal by All-Star Richie Hebner against Walpole in the 1-0 victory; the come-lrom behind 4-2 win over Auburn in the state tournament; Neil Higgins ' many shutouts; the 8-0 and 6-0 wins over Natick and Lynn- field; and the 5-1 romp over Dedham to clinch the title. The first line consisted of Captain Bob Donahue, Richie Hebner, and Bill Hasen- fus. Donahue, a capable leader, came up with the big goals when they were needed and never stopped hustling. Hebner worked hard and earned his rating as the best forward in the state. Hasenfus was a digger whose spirited hustle made him one of the best forecheckers and backcheckers in the league. The second line of Richie Graham, Tommy Shea, and Pete Oberlander came into their own toward the end of the sea- son. Graham is a tricky stickhandler and playmaker. Shea is one of the fastest skat- ers on the team. Oberlander has a good shot and is strong on the boards. These three will do well as the first line next year. Substitute linemen worthy of praise are Senior Mario Ranalli, Junior Ken Red- dick, and Sophomore Harry Pascoe.

Nash, Twiss, Coach Richardson No Luck — Just Skill A sorely depleted Norwood High School track team greeted Coach Fred Richard- son last fall as defending Bay State League Champions. The cross country team led by captain Jack Flaherty started the season against the top two teams in the league, Braintree and Natick. They never did get over the shock and compiled a mediocre 3-6 record. Varsity runners were Seniors Jack Flaherty and Bernie Cornelia; Juniors Paul Snellgrove, Wes Loper, Keith Erik- son, Ken Erikson; and Sophomore Randy Rintala. With all the undergrad strength this year ' s rebuilding season should pay off well. The indoor track team under coaches Richardson and Maloney started its fourth year on the right foot by defeating peren- nial powerhouse Cambridge Latin 46-40. Captains Mike Sullivan and Bernie Cor- nelia then led the team to two more vic- tories, defeating Maiden Catholic 45-41, and humiliating Revere 73-12. Next a flu-racked Norwood faced its chief rival, Milton, each team having iden- tical 9-0 records. Norwood, plagued by bad luck, bowed to an obviously weaker team, 42-42, in a meet that could easily have been a rout. Norwood rebounded from the loss deter- mined to have its third 6-1 season in a row, and Needham was the fourth Norwood vic- tim, losing 50-36, while most of Norwood ' s attention was on the sixth place Cambridge Latin team that was edged by Milton 44-42. Norwood ' s last meet was against Fram- ingham South and the tracksters got their 6-1 record for second place by winning 52- 34. This kept up the winning tradition of the Class of ' 66 but the team felt it should have taken the league title. Nor- wood was clearly superior to Milton whom they outscored 362-340 against the same opponents — they just didn ' t have any luck.

Gendrolius, Baer, Flaherty, Donovan, Pungitore, Collins, Cottrell All Over the Mat The 1966 Norwood wrestling team coached by Mr. John Bamberry and captained by junior John Noble, grappled through its second varsity season, gaining much expe- rience and poise. Norwood faced opponents with many more years of practical knowl- edge including Needham, Milton, Brain- tree, Wellesley, Scituate, Weymouth, Brook- line, and Natick. This was rough on the boys, but they did their best in every meet. Against the only team comparable to Nor- wood ' s inexperience, Walpole, we lost only 24-23. Although having an unimpressive 0-11 record, the team had some top individual stars and many showing great potential. The top point-getter on the team was sophomore Rich Machado who compiled an 8-2 record. Rich came in third in the Bay State League Conference meet in his weight class to qualify for the state meet. Also outstanding towards the end of the season was junior Ken Sheehan who placed second in his class to qualify for the State Individual Meet. Senior John McTernan was the third Norwood grappler to qualify for the big meet through his efforts in the Bay State League. Among the other top mat-men were seniors Frank Danieli, John Turchan, Pete Barry, and Bill Gendrolius; juniors John Noble, and Rocco LaRusso; sophomores Kevin Orme and Charlie Shaw; and fresh- men Chris Collins and Charlie Mosely. With most of the team returning next year Coach Bamberry may look forward to a strong squad and a good season.

Captain-catcher Tom Costello belted two homers, including a grand slam, and Co-Captain Bill Hasen- fus left the mound with a 4-hitter on the record. Mr. David Hartnett made his de- but as baseball coach this season, and it looks as though he ' s got an action team on his hands. On the mound this year for Norwood are Bill Hasenfus and Mike Seery to sail the balls across the plate. The infield is packed with power and speed with John Solomon, Tom Donovan, Richie Hebner, and Carl McCarthy. Rounding out the team are Mike Bradley, Dick Malacaria, and Dante Ferrara in the outfield. The second game was against Wellesley, with Mike Serry hurling the ball. Mike pitched a fine game but the team ' s defense fell apart, and Wellesley came out on top due to errors. Coach Hartnett tried three Juniors on the mound in the following game against Needham. The pitching was again impressive but the defense pulled off 13 errors to give Needham the win 21-7. Framingham North then defeated the Nor- wood nine 10-6. Coach Hartnett has some great players in the infield and we saw many impossible plays taken care of easily, but the team had some bad days. Their position will undoubtedly improve as the season pro- gresses and with all that power on the team Norwood may still attain a high spot (Continued on Page 244) [193] DIAMOND «oo- . tei 1H 3$ ■ Malacaria V ■ ■y n Seery • 3 vC Ferrara V E tH i l1 1 Bradley) !v Solomon DEMONS Hasenfus Hebner Coach Hartnett . t 4 7 | ft Hasenfus Hebner Costello LSI SUPER Wm si ezh GXMNASl SEEDED C ZONES Boys ' Tennis From Row: Harris, G.

When the sport first started here at Norwood High, a group of interested girls joined and learned the basic skills of field hockey and played on an intramural basis. Last year the Norwood High girls were able to as- semble two field hockey teams: a varsity and a junior varsity team. They played eight games during the course of the sea- son and, for the most part, other schools which were also first year teams. The Norwood High teams made such a good showing, demonstrating a high cali- bre of play for a first year team, that it was decided they would go into the Bay State League schedule. The league schools played were Walpole, Natick, Framingham South, Framingham North, Dedham, Braintree, Wellesley, and Needham. Two non-league games were played: one with Braintree High School and one with Thayer Acad- emy. The record of three tied and seven lost did not indicate the skill and style with which the girls played. Although Norwood was the only team in the league that lacked experience no team anywhere showed better spirit than the Norwood High team. [202] Archery Front Row: Daley, Naughton, Kalliel, MacDonald, Crowley, David Rear Row: Smith, O ' Brien, McMorrow, Miss Sullivan, Danieli, Hodge, Concannon Our Bows Were All A-Quiver A small group of enthusiastic girls formed an archery club early in the fall season and enjoyed Robin Hood ' s time- honored pastime with ardor and vigor. The members of this group were in- structed by Miss Florence Sullivan of the Physical Education Department in the fun- damentals of archery. Having established their sheeting lines and having set up their targets, they learned about stringing their bows, proper stance, nocking, draw, an- chor, aim, release and follow-through. They were also given advice in regard to safety precautions and learned to score and to remove the arrows from the target. Good posture as well as good fun was one of the concomitant benefits of this sport. Patricia O ' Brien was the leading scorer of the group. She shot a 178 for six ends. Patricia also scored the most bull ' s eyes, with a total of twenty-two. Nancy David was the second highest scorer for six ends with a total of 177 and 7 bull ' s eyes. Liza Crowley had some fine scores and came in second in the number of bull ' s eyes with a total of nine. All participants gained in skill and pos- ture and had fun doing it.

Ties — All the Way to the Top (Continued from Page 180) The Blue and White could taste the Championship (after defeating the league leaders on successive weekends), as they next defeated Needham 21-6. Walpole stunned Norwood the next Sat- urday with a 26-6 victory led by their out- standing quarterback, Brad Brooks. Norwood then travelled to Dedham for the big Thanksgiving Day game and de- feated the home team 8-0 in a hard fought contest. This capped a great season as Norwood also became the Bay State League Co- Champs with Framingham South. Next year ' s team will be hard pressed to re- place ' 66 ' s great seniors; but under the leadership of Tommy Donovan, we wish them good luck and hope to see Tommy, Joe Smith, and Tom Shea lead Norwood to victory over the Shiretowners again next year. Bay State Champions (Continued from Page 186) This year ' s defensemen, Bob Clifford and Jack Cronin, had one of the finest records in the state. Rusty Tobin backed them ably despite an injured knee. Sophomore All-Star Neil Higgins sur- passed all expectations and had a great year. His numerous shut-outs and superb goals - against average show his ability. Senior Dan Maloney deserves credit for his role of back up goalie. The following tally shows the results of a wonderful year that ended rather anti- cimatically: Bay State League Norwood Needham 1 Norwood 2 Wellesley Norwood 8 Norwood 1 Natick Walpole 2 Norwood Norwood Norwood Norwood Norwood 1 Norwood 1 Norwood 3 Norwood 3 Norwood 6 Norwood 1 Norwood Norwood Norwood Norwood Braintree Framingham N.

Milton Framingham S. 2 Dedham 1 State Tournament Norwood 6 Lynnfield Auburn 2 Norwood 4 Norwood 2 Waltham 5 A Power-Packed Parcel of Players (Continued from Page 193) in the league. There is plenty of personal brilliance among the players and as their team work improves, there is every reason to believe that their cooperative efforts will show up in the victory column. The season is still young as we go to press and the following games are still to be played: two games with Walpole, two games with Natick, two ' games with Brain- tree, two games with Milton, two games with Dedham, one game with Fram- ingham South, one game with Wellesley, one game with Needham, and one game with Framingham North.

A Foreign Exchange Student ' s Reaction To Norwood, Massachusetts and the U.S.A. America and the American people were a big surprise to me because they didn ' t correspond at all to the picture I had of them before I came to this country from my home in Santo Domingo. I thought that Americans were so concerned with their techniques and material progress that all they would talk about would be fac- tories, making money, and outer space. The meeting with my American family, the Bremers of 18 Mylod Street, Norwood, Massachusetts, and my first week at Nor- wood Hight School showed me how mis- taken I was. I found my new family to be sympathetic and understanding, and to have a wonderful sense of humor. At school I found teachers and students alike ready to help me and to be friendly and inter- ested. To be sure, my first week at school was full of confusion and apprehension. Con- fusion because I felt lost in the huge build- ing where everybody but I seemed to know where to go, and my troubles with the lan- guage! I didn ' t dream that the day would come when I could understand for five minutes what was going on in my classes, (Continued on Back Page) SENIOR MAY 20 Sydney Hill Country Club r ' V  : -a .. ar 1 y j w i v 13I V V ™ vJ, :  issijj; --.:.■ 1 p ■ 5 i PS .,. v Heckman O ' Beirne Brissette TRACK Cornelia Purnell WSm Ostrum Shumski CHEERLEADERS DANCE Queen Liz King Mike jRT .

Some of my apprehension was due to these factors and also to the fact that I couldn ' t seem to stop all those swinging doors before they hit me. My year at Norwood High School has been a wonderful experience which I wouldn ' t trade for anything in the world. It has enriched my life spiritually and intellectually. Sometimes I feel that I have received much more than I have given, and this makes me feel bad. There are thousands of things which I shall never forget about Norwood. Among them are: the innocent beauty of the cold, white snow; the golden color of the leaves in the fall; the school spirit that charac- terized the games and the school parties; the independence and aspirations of the young people; the kindness and patience of my teachers with my English troubles; and the love and complete acceptance that I found in the home of the Bremers, my American family.
