The edifice stands proudly, an architectural monument dedicated to the education and development of all who are received through its wide and welcoming doors. We rejoice in the physical beauty of our high school, but at the same time we realize that a school is not just a building. It is a composite of all the hopes and ambitions of a community, and far beyond the value of the building itself is the human element that makes it a living, breathing entity.

LINCOLN D. LYNCH The Class of 1967 was in the sixth grade when Lincoln D. Lynch resigned as Superintendent of Schools after thirty years of unparalleled service to the town of Norwood. Mr. Lynch was more than a brilliant educator and a pioneer in the field of mental health, he was first and foremost a man who stood foursquare for his beliefs and was a formidable contender in the arena of public affairs whenever they touched upon education and the children at Norwood. To this distinguished gentleman who died in January 1967, the Class of 1967 dedicates this book, in the name of the thousands of children who benefited from his deep wisdom, wide experience, and vigorous service.

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. [ 7 ] FHCUIIV racuit V A school is composed of many elements, but primarily of people: of students and of teachers. There are no well- educated students without well-prepared teachers. The well-prepared teacher is the cornerstone of education. The essence of personality, of mental growth, and of physical development in the student, which prevail in this place of guidance and understanding, evolve in the atmos- phere of learning and culture created by the faculty. The teachers at Norwood High School are not only our mentors in regard to learning; they are also our friends and our advisors to whom we may turn in time of difficulty. [ 9 ] MR. JOHN F.

In twelve years, each group has managed to reach the top rung of the first ladder of life... that place where each student, by his own achievement, plus the unselfish help of his parents and teachers, has attained the first pinnacle of superiority... graduation. Commencement, too, designates this important time, and as we begin a new phase of life ' s journey, may the intangibles of honor and integrity learned here accompany us as surely as the more concrete concepts of education that we have achieved within these walls.

[87; Officers of Class of 1967 as Freshmen Seated: Babel, Fuller, Stratton, White Standing: Kelley, Zappala, Eysie Year of Potential With the vitality which was to be the trademark of our class, we began our fresh- man year on the Hill. A maze of crowded corridors and a sea of unfamiliar faces kept us starry-eyed and insecure for the first few weeks. It was with difficulty that we elected officers, with so many strange names on the ballot. Our diplomacy had a wo- man ' s touch with the higher officers be- ing girls: Caroline Stratton, President; Eleanor White, Vice-President; Paula Bab- el, Secretary; Kathy Fuller and Joe Eysie, Treasurers; Gayle Kelley and Joe Zapalla, A.A. Representatives. Swaying palm trees and erupting vol- canoes set the scene for our freshman party, which was a very enjoyable evening. The spirit of cooperation was inspiring and proved to be a foreshadowing of the repu- tation our class would achieve for its de- pendability. Our athletes showed great potential and worked diligently to prepare themselves for acceptance to varsity teams. Janet Sullivan, Caryl Memmo, Mary Jane White, Carol Howard, Lois Lind- blom, Linda Lanzoni, and Diane Thornton added voiced encouragement to the efforts of our freshman teams. We tasted real high school life for the first time. Ken Reddick, Carl McCarthy, Jeff Brown, and Peter Oberlander paced our freshman hockey team to a highly success- ful season. Quality rather than quantity was the key to a fast track season. Stand- outs in track were Tom Brissette, Pete O ' Beirne, Bruce Chapman, Jimmy Lydon, and Stan Kelley. By June we had successfully adapted our- selves to our new environment and were looking forward to three more years of activity on the Hill. [88] Officers of Class of 1967 as Sophomores Left to Right: Orme, Smith, Kelley, Donovan, Stupak, Boulis, Fitzpatrick Year of Progress Returning in September 1964 as sopho- mores, we were confident and determined to progress in knowledge and sophistica- tion. The masculine half of our class swept the polls this year. We elected Robert Fitz- patrick, President; Robert Orme, Vice- President; Mary Stupak, Secretary; Carolyn Boulis and Joe Smith, Treasurers; Gayle Kelley and Tom Donovan, A.A. Repre- sentatives. Talent previously dormant was aroused in preparing for our Sophomore Party. It was a great success thanks to the zealous ef- forts of many classmates. As our potentialities were fast becoming realities, we found ourselves developing an undefinable school spirit and pride in our activities. Our athletes were eagerly wel- comed by junior varsity teams. Janet Sulli- van and Kathy Fuller added their lively voices to the echoes of the cheering squad. Tom Donovan, Tom Cassidy, Jack Col- lins, Ken Feeney, and Ken Sheehan had a very successful football season. Paul Snellgrove, Mike Saegh, Joe Gug- liotta, Wes Loper, and Bob Nelson built up an enormous total of points for our basketball team. Class leaders who were to achieve prom- inence in the coming years were beginning to stand out. Being firmly established at N.H.S. we took an active part in all academic and extra-curricular activities. By taking a more vigorous interest in school life we found our sophomore year exciting and enjoy- able. As June approached we were all satisfied that we had progressed a great deal in physical, mental and spiritual development. We now occupied ourselves with thoughts of the upperclassmanship which would come in the fall. We had passed with honor through the difficult days of subordination. [89] Freshman Party FANTASY Sophomore Party October 1964 Officers of Class of 1967 as Juniors Standing: Donovan, Lindblom, Donovan, T. Seated: Babel, Cassidy, Boulis, P. Boulis, C. Year of Pressure Falling leaves and stacks of books accom- panied us every day to school and Septem- ber 1965 brought to us the distinction of being upperclassmen. This year was to prove our most difficult scholastically, but also our most action-filled. Class officers were cautiously elected and proved to be of exceptional ability. Tom Cassidy, our newly-elected President, put the class before all other commitments. Our other officers included Paul Boulis, Vice-President; Paula Babel, Secretary; Carolyn Boulis, and Steve Donovan, Trea- surers; Lois Lindblom and Tom Donovan, A.A. Representatives. Our athletes moved to the front in all sports. Pushing the football team to its championship were Tom Donovan and Joe Smith, among others. Aside from deserving special attention for all his other achievements, Tom Dono- van won extra recognition as the recipient of the Harvard Book Prize. Another con- temporary, Robert Benker, was justifiably rewarded with the American Legion His- tory Medal for his knowledge of U.S. His- tory. As spring came our interests turned to our junior prom. Tom Cassidy and his crew of capable assistants worked endlessly to ensure our happiness on the evening of April 29th. Carousel was appropriately the theme for a colorful evening of enjoy- ment. Our scholars were officially recognized at the annual awards assembly. We were all proud and happy to laud our classmates who were received into the National Honor Society. Our last project was to act as hosts to the out-going seniors on their Class Day. With mixed emotions we said So long. We now came to the realization that we had to fill the positions of importance which our departing friends had filled so well. [94] Front Runners O ' Brien, Cassidy, Erikson Our Three Men in High Places The highest positions in the Class of 1967 were held by Thomas Cassidy, Presi- dent of the Class, George O ' Brien, Presi- dent of the Student Council, and Kenneth Erikson, Co-editor-in-chief of the Yearbook. Tom Cassidy served for two years in office, presiding over the best class ever to pass through the School on the Hill. Ever popular and ever busy, Tom comple- mented his work as President with mem- bership on the football team where he played defensive end. Despite his size, he was a mighty contender. He plans to at- tend Northeastern University. Our energetic Student Council leader, George O ' Brien, served the student body with distinction. He led such successful and beneficial campaigns as the Globe Santa Fund and the March of Dimes Drive. George was also President of the Foreign Exchange Club and a member of the soc- cer team. Hard-working yet sociable, he will make a fine addition to Providence College next year. Kenneth Erikson was Co-editor-in-chief of the Tiot. An indefatigable and cheerful worker, Kenny was the moving spirit on the editorial staff. His academic interests lay mainly in mathematical and scientific fields. Ken also participated in track and tennis while at the high school. He plans a chemical engineering career and hopes to attend Purdue University next fall. [95] Senior Officers Class of 1967 Row I: Cassidy, Kelley, Fuller, Saegh Row II: Snellgrove, Crowley, Donovan Year of Prominence With a flurry of excitement and our traditional enthusiasm, we began our last action-filled year on the Hill. We started the year off right by reelecting Thomas Cassidy, President; Michael Saegh, Vice- President; Kathleen Fuller, Secretary; Paul Snellgrove and Gayle Kelley, Treasurers; Thomas Donovan and Margaret Crowley, A.A. Representatives. Our first activity as a class unit was a unique one: the liberation of Blue Hill. The purpose of the evening was to bring Blue Hill back to its rightful place in Nor- wood, and though it was physically un- successful, the hill will always be known to us as Mustang Mountain. Our senior super-heroes immediately proved themselves on the football field. Attendance at the games was always high —naturally— with such attractions as Cap- tain Tom Donovan, Tom Cassidy, Bill Knowlton, Ken Sheehan, Steve DiCicco, Joe Smith, Kevin Donovan, Jack Collins, Tim Hopkins, Ken Feeney, Kevin Murphy, Steve Costello, Rick Hale, and Joe Gug- liotta. Although Ryoko, our Japanese exchange student, wasn ' t always sure in which direc- tion our players were supposed to be run- ning, she was one of the most vocal spec- tators in the stands. She will always be remembered by all of us, especially the soda jerks as Fliendlie ' s for her frequent requests for strawberry flappes. The football season reached its climax with another unprecedented event. The night before the biggest game of the year, a bonfire took place, thanks to the organ- ized efforts of many of our class leaders. The enthusiasm kindled by the fire com- bined with the skill of our football team to bring victory over Dedham 36-32. [98] Captain Paul Snellgrove and other bas- ketball stars such as Pete O ' Beirne, Tom Donovan, Jack Wilson, Bobby Nelson, Wes Loper, Jack Collins, Joe Rukstalis and Joe Gugliotta assured all spectators of a fast-moving, high score game. The season ended with a hilarious student-faculty bas- ketball game. Bob Fitzpatrick ' s burst of super-human strength brought the game to a stupendous tie. The massive public support given to the hockey team added to the players de- termination to uphold Norwood ' s reputa- tion on the ice. Senior aces on the ice included: Captain Pete Oberlander, Ken Reddick, Richie Graham, and Kevin Mur- phy. Although our final hockey game ended in defeat, we played a hard game and made the slender (2-1) victory for Arlington no easy matter. We kept the name of Norwood High above reproach both during and after the game. The excitement and an- ticipation of that game will forever be a part of all of us! Our first theatrical production, The Thread That Runs So True , was an in- evitable success. Bully Wiik and Gran- ny Sopp stole the show, but Nancy Hem- man and Rich Hurley were never outdone. In the awards department, Barbara Wkrd received the Brotherhood Award which she has certainly earned. Janet Sulliva n won the D.A.R. award, a coveted prize because her classmates chose her from over two hundred senior girls. So This Is Paris? was the title of our unforgettable musical. Debbie Peckham and Mike Griffin were the stars of the show, but Gayle Kelley ' s pep and cheerfulness brightened up the show and kept the audi- ence in stitches. Our last round of activities began with our senior prom, on May 19th. We had a delightful evening at Sidney Hill and we began to realize that we were almost there. The hustle and bustle of the next few weeks was fantastic! All graduation activities were sparked with brightness and an undefinable melan- choly. As we listened to Mr. Monbouquette at Commencement, we each were filled with thoughts of moments never to be forgotten. We leave Norwood High School opti- mistic that the education we have received here will serve as a foundation for happi- ness and success for each member of the class of nineteen hundred and sixty-seven. |Sfc- ELLIE WHITE ' 67 Historian [99] Best Actors Most Likely to Succeed Most Popular Snellgrove (missing) Oberlander Donovan Cox Stitt SUPER Best Dressed Boulis Cassidy Relley Cullen Boulis Best Student Stitt Donovan Cox Snellgrove SENIORS Best Looking O ' Brien Babel 0 {j i. z?--G mU c n c Most Athletic Most Artistic (missing) Oberlander Bateman Lindblom Donovan Most Musical Most Talented Donnelly Gillett Best Dancers Donnelly SENIOR Ace Accomplishes Gugliotta Kelley Erikson White Wittiest Most Courteous Frtzpatrick Saad Johnson Boulis SUPERS Most Dependable Donovan Scafuri White O ' Brien CURRICULA C arricula Books!

[105 ] Guidance Department Although the Guidance Department did not increase its staff this year, it did expand its facilities. The inner counseling room was transformed into a file and records room, while Mr. Poce ' s office was estab- lished down the hall in room 130. In com- mon with all departments in our ever- growing school, space was at a premium and togetherness was forced to await the new addition promised in the near future. It was the purpose of the counselors to acquire ah overview of the total educa- tional 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 guid- ance department administered individual and group intelligence tests, talent-search- ing aptitude tests, and achievement tests. It was their responsibility to interpret the patterns revealed by these test results to teachers, parents, and pupils, and to co- ordinate all efforts contributing to the suc- cess 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 required 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 ad- justment. [106] 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 English studies. Norwood Senior High School classes used a variety of modern texts to explore the novel, short story, drama, es- say, and other literary forms. A survey of English and American literature was car- ried on through the Junior and Senior years to provide the student with a better understanding 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 Depart- ment was the opportunity offered to make class field trips to Boston and suburban theatres to see stage plays. In this way, in- terested students are given the opportunity to see worth-while legitimate theatre at nominal prices. This year the department offers elective courses in creative writing, drama and pub- lic speaking. [107] Mathematics Department 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 department 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 traveled to Westwood once a week for the first half- year, where they programmed and solved problems in algebra through a terminal which was attached to a PDP-1 computer in Cambridge. Most of the students found using a pow- erful, 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. [108] Foreign Language Department The Foreign Language Department at Norwood Senior High School continued to reflect the general growth and expansion of the school and the town. German was offered this year for the first time since the post-World War I era. For the first time in history there was a class in fifth year French. Four years were offered of Latin and of Spanish respectively. The laboratory continued to be a very useful adjunct in the learning of modern foreign languages since each booth was equipped with a tape recorder which per- mits t he student to listen to a variety of French, German, and Spanish speakers, then to attempt to imitate them, and final- ly, to play back his own performance and compare it with the master recording. By means of drill exercises the student could master structures of the language which had been presented in the classroom. Re- cordings also provide him with additional information concerning the culture of the countries being studied. Each student was scheduled for labora- tory work one period every seven days and had the opportunity for supplementary work during his study periods and after school hours under the combined student- faculty supervision on Mondays, Wednes- days, and Fridays. [109] 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 student on the advanced level in Western Civiliza- tion and American History I. Upon suc- cessful completion of these courses, stu- dents advance to Western Civilization II and American History II. Those students who are taking American History I and II are encouraged to take the Advanced Place- ment Examination which will, in some col- leges, give them six credit hours toward degree work. For the college preparatory student Western Civilization I or American Gov- ernment is offered in the Freshman year. Sophomores 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 any 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 direc- tion, purpose, sequence and requirements in each course. [110] Science Department The Science Department continues to grow annually and the wide variety of courses offered for selection reflect the changes that have taken place in the sci- ences over the last decade. We continued with the Biological Sciences Curriculum Study, Blue and Yellow versions. These science programs rely greatly on the use of the laboratory as an integral part of the student ' s learning activities and con- tribute to an understanding of important biological concepts. For those students with a special interest in Biology or in related fields, an advanced course in Biology is also offered. This course also relies on the laboratory activities to develop concepts. This year for the first time, two classes of Sophomores are taking the Chem Study course which emphasizes the most enjoy- able part of chemistry — experimentation. The laboratory work provides the basis for the development of chemical princi- ples. It will be possible for these students to do advanced work in chemistry which we are due to offer in 1968-1969. We continued with the PSSC Physcis course which is also a laboratory-oriented course. Principles grow out of observations made in the laboratory. Some new experi- ments have been added and some of the older ones have been changed so as to make some of the basic principles easier to recognize. With the interest in space travel, our Earth Science course becomes more im- portant. This course stresses the basic facts concerning the earth — its make up and movements and its relation to other plan- ets. We stress laboratory work because it contributes so much to interest in and com- prehensiveness of the course. [ill] Business Department Despite popular opinion that automa- tion is about to eliminate the need for office presonnel, statistics published by the Department of Labor show quite the contrary. The need for well-trained sten- ographers, 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, typewriting 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 satisfy personal needs as well as more complete courses 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 several years we have been able to offer civil service examinations here at Norwood High School. [112] 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 learn- ed the rules of correct table setting for different types of meals. The girls were taught to use the sew- ing machine and patterns. Each made a sampler of hand stitches and learned to fit and alter garments while constructing them. In studying fashion and good groom- ing they became more aware of the princi- ples 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 demon- strations to the girls. Many girls took ad- vantage of the Elective Home Economics class and of Home Management where they were introduced to many other aspects of home and family care. [113] Library and Reading SCHOOL LIBRARY During the past year the growth of the School Library was greatly accelerated through two federal grants for the pur- chase of books. One, for history source books, was obtained by the social studies department under the National Defense Education Act. Fifteen hundred additional books were acquired for the library as a result. Since there has been no increase in book space, the shelving problem is becoming acute. There is to be another grant, avail- able to the school library this year. The books will be acquired but where they will be housed is a question. Norwood High School Library is not spared the growing pains that are afflicting all school libraries in these days of the information explosion. 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 incorpo- rated into the program this year and help- ed to increase the effectiveness of the les- sons. 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 excell- ence and intellectual growth. [114] Music and Art Department MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Musical Curriculum was substantial- ly 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 Freshmmen. Freshmen took part in some of the school ' s musical pro- grams by participating in the Freshman Chorus. As always the Music Department invited direct participation in some musical ac- tivity such as the Concert Band, the Stage Band, the Choralaires or the Concert Choir by as many members of the student body as possible. True appreciation and enjoy- ment of music has only been attained by being active performers rather than passive listeners. ART DEPARTMENT The provisions of the Art Department were arranged so that all students of mixed abilities and talents could apply them- selves 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 pro- vide the student 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 professional art school, found that the art program pro- vided them with necessary preparation. 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 outstanding painters. [115] Physical Education Department Our program in Physical Education is an integral part of the high school education and it has been expanding rapidly in recent years. Participation by all students in some aspects of this program, curricular and ex- tra-curricular, is our aim. We also aim to develop correct attitudes towards play and set up proper standards of sportsmanship. Physical education classes are held two periods a week for Seniors and Juniors and three periods a week for Sophomores and Freshmen. Intramural sports offered for girls are field hockey, basketball, softball, archery, tennis and gymnastics. The boys intra- mural program consists of soccer, touch- football, 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 gymnas- tics; and for the boys, in football, hockey, basketball, baseball, indoor and outdoor track, cross country, golf, tennis, and wres- tling. Each year the opportunities offered to the student body are expanded and refined and we feel that the school is well repre- sented in most fields of physical activity with a bright future ahead. [116] 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 nec- essary to produce satisfactory plans which were used in the various shop courses. The development of pencil and instru- ment skills in technical sketching, machine design, pictorial representation, architec- tural 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 opportun- ity to set up and operate some of the ma- chines found in modern machine shops and sheet metal plants. Metal-spinning, art metal, metal forming, and arc welding were included in this course. Also, in this shop course, Automotive Mechanics was intro- duced to the more advanced students. [117] PEHBODV l- eabodi y Man must be trained for a place in society where he can function in a fashion that will bring him personal fulfill- ment. Too long have the necessary, underlying economics of the everyday provision for the welfare and comfort of all citizens been underrated. Trained service for the well- being and health of the community and the family unit is of paramount importance. Competence in these areas is developed and refined in the students of the Henry 0. Peabody school so that their contributions will benefit all with whom they come in contact in their future careers. 1119] Peabody Faculty Miss Ruth E. Flood Practical Nursing w m (S J Miss Ruth M.

The Association is an organization by means of which the students govern them- selves with the cooperation of the Director and Faculty of the School. The Student Cooperative Association through its elected officers, homeroom representatives, and al- ternates endeavors at all times to foster a spirit of acceptance of responsibilities as well as privileges, so that fine spirit of friendship and of mutual pride will exist throughhout the school as a whole. The Student Cooperative sponsors vari- ous activities such as the pre-election rallies, the election of officers, and the Get-Ac- quainted Tea in the fall. Operation Santa Claus takes place in December and is a school project which gives the students an opportunity to remember both children and older people in hospitals, nursing homes, and state institutions. During the year many theatre trips are arranged. The most important event is the annual Class Day which is called the Step-Party , tak- ing place out-of-doors in June. The elected officers for the year 1966-67: President, Raymond Laramie; Vice-Presi- dent, Eileen Burke; Secretary, Barbara Tower; Treasurer, Paul Rondeau. The Faculty Sponsors have been Mrs. M.

Standing: Haglund, Anderson, Connolly, Miss Morrison, Miss McCready, Mrs. Souther, Johnson, Lanthier Peabody Newshounds Periodically throughout the school year, a column well known as Peabody Per- sonalities appears in the Norwood Messen- ger and other area newspapers. For the fourteen years of its existence, this column has always been the special province of the Henry O. Peabody Press Club. Each year, the Press club ' s membership consists of a group of interested and en- thusiastic students who volunteer to gather and write general school news and the news of their respective departments. Faithful and capable reporters for 1966- 67 have been Donna Smith and Jeralyn Letourneau for the Fashion Department; Joyce Anderson and Jo Ellen Connolly for the Business Department; Sharon Murch, Mary Ann Johnson, and Joseph Haglund for Food Service; Kathleen Rafferty for the Beauty Culture Department; and Bar- bara Tower and Bernard Lanthier for gen- eral school news. The publicity for which the Press Club is responsible is planned to inform alumni, those considering the school in the future, and the community in general about the current curriculum, the present students and staff, and the many activities of Nor- wood ' s only vocational public school. This year the Press Club has been under the direction of Mrs. Zaila Souther, Eng- lish instructor. Miss Rose Morrison and Miss Marjorie McCready, of the Business Department, have been in charge of the final typing of the copy for publication.

The hopes and fears, the churning ambitions, the gaiety and the sadness, the excitement and high spirits, and the thoughts of youth which are long, long thoughts all go to make the volatile, highly charged atmosphere of a school an exciting place to be. To our younger brothers and sisters we say do not let the minutiae of life crowd out the eternal verities. Youth is to be en- joyed, but opportunities should not be overlooked nor time frittered away. Carpe diem is still a good motto. [131 J CLASS OF 1968 g-Raduat oa t JUNIORS Junior Officers - Class of 1968 Row I Row II Row III Mazzola Paquette, Machado, Coakley, Donovan Servello, Lembo 66 Heirs to the Throne HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1968 In September 1966 when the Class of ' 68 returned to the Hill , our predominant thought was: at last we are Juniors! With renewed vitality and assurance we eagerly accepted upperclassmanship and all the responsibilities that go along with it. Vigorous campaigning led the way to our most exciting class election to date. By a write-in ballot our very popular Stephen Donovan was elected President. Those chosen to fill the other offices were: Richard Machado, Vice-President; Dorothy Mazzola, Secretary; Janine Paquette, and Victor Sevello, Treasurers; Cathleen Coak- ley and Vincent Lembo, A. A. Representa- tives. Two outstanding members of our class, Paul Pazniokas and Nancy Sweeney, were chosen as the finalists in the Foreign Ex- change Student Program. Junior cheerleaders, P a t r i c a Burke, Paula Crook, and Nancy Sweeney led the ever loyal and sport-spirited class of ' 68 as we cheered our teams to victory. Our ath- letic contributions and faithful attendance has given both the junior class and the N.H.S. teams much to be proud of. After feverish preparation and excited anticipation, the April evening of our Junior Prom finally arrived. A memorable time was enjoyed by all in our South Sea setting of Hawaii. June marked the end of our third suc- cessful yea r at N.H.S. As we bade adieu to the Seniors and our unforgettable junior year, we eagerly awaited our impending ascent to the throne of seniority. —Christine Tonning ' 68 [134] Sophomore Officers - Class of 1969 Row I: Ylioki, Poniatowski, Mogan Row II: Orrae, Acker, Ranalli, Clark 66 Old Timers Now HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1969 The Class of 1969 attacked the new year with a new attitude: We re older than someone now! The first order of the year was the election of officers. Of these, two were incumbents: Vice-President Marylee Clark and Secretary Ann Poniatowski. We elected for a first term President David Mo- gan, Treasurers Kathleen Orme and Frank Ylioki, and A.A. Representatives Liz Acker and John Ranalli. For our Sophomore Party we relied on two predominately sophomore bands: Bob Lindfors, Dale McConkey, Pete Lindfors, and Jim Abel of The Wayward Moss and Rick Talbot, Bob Susi, and Tom Cam- pisano of the Grim Reapers. A melo- drama entitled Wild Nell, Pet of the Plains was presented, starring Melinda Reagan; other leading roles were superbly acted by Ann Poniatowski, John Ranalli, Mamee Clark, Jackie Adelmann, and Bob Susi, with Jerry Drummey narrating the tale. Sophomore athletes on the varsity foot- ball team were Dave Mogan, Jack Adel- mann, Tom Gugliotta, Bob Donovan, Fred O ' Connell and Steve Fischer. In Junior Varsity basketball, we were represented by star players Walt Litchfield, Norm Sacco, Danny McQuaid, Clyde McCrea, and Tom Gugliotta. Our star hockey player, John Ranalli, exhibited his outstanding ability in every game. It is imperative that we not leave out the Sophomore cheerleaders Kathy Dono- van, Janet Ostrom, and Liz Acker who spurred our boys on to great deeds in ath- letics. Students upholding our scholastic rating by meriting Honors With Distinction included Virginia Burns, Kelvin Chin, Pat Fanning, Karla Johnson, Roy Lydon, Kath- leen Orme, Mary Parkinson, and Barbara Tausey. We have made our Sophomore year memorable and we look forward to the challenge ahead. — Susan Nolan ' 69 [135] r - ' .ZK ' .a ■.

After a few initial days of utter con- fusion and dilemma, we were on our way to become the first graduating class of the 70 ' s. Our first step toward organization was to elect some capable and dependable leaders. Our president was Charles Bradford Kel- ley; vice-president, Bruno Rondinelli; sec- retary, Jill Richards; and treasurer Steve Talbot. Girls A.A. was represented by Ann Phalen and Boys ' A.A. by Tom Kennedy. We held our Freshman Party in October with entertainment by a lively band of our own, Little Jon ' s Nocturnes. The high- light of the evening was Brian MacQuar- rie ' s Dracula Act in which he imitated that well-known personality, Count Wolfgang Dracula. We had our own football team made up of all-stars like Billy Ekberg, Greg Koval, Paul DiCicco, Paul Donovan, Johnny Hop- kins, Walter Denzer and Roy Parker. Mark O ' Connell, Mark Flaherty, Edward Letts, Jerry Gotovitch, Frank Eppich and Walter Denzer made up the first string of our hockey team along with an eighth grade student Philip McNulty. Especially out- standing on our basketball team were Richard Laffey, Gene Romanelli and Bill Moan. It was a year of fun and new experiences for us, but also one of study and serious thinking. There won ' t ever be another one like it through all our lives and it will be remembered by us with a certain nostalgic fondness. — Susan Dempsey [140] Freshman Football Row I: Denzer, Donovan, Koval, Ekberg, DiCicco, Hopkins, Parker, Solomon, Hersey, Hanley Row II: O ' Brien, Gotovich, Puzin, Rondinelli, Kennedy, Moan, Relley, Laffey, Joy, Curtis, Manson, Tobe Row III- Coach Bethoney, Pierce, Morgan, Assad, Boch, Oliver, Orme, Dyke, Gaetani, Grannetti, D.

To all students, our school offers manifold opportunities in extra-curricular activities whereby they may create or perfect interests and hobbies that will endure throughout their lives.

The Executive Board consisted of Joanne Susi, Chairman; Gayle Kelley, Thomas Donovan, Paul Boulis. John Cronin, Nancy Sweeney, and Michele Eysie. There were over seven- ty-five members. Our social calendar began this year with the Student Council Dance held in Novem- ber. The Grenadiers, a popular local band, furnished the music for the event. As is the custom, proceeds from this dance were given to the Foreign Exchange Fund. The Council voted to turn the Faculty- Student Basketball Game over to the AFS Club as a project for the year. This club was a comparatively new one and was without funds. For the second year the Council sponsored the Globe Santa Drive. The student body contributed over five hundred dollars to the worthy cause. In fact, our school was among the largest con- tributors in Greater Boston. We also participated for the third time in the National Jewish War Veterans Con- test, Classmates Today and Tomorrow. Barbara Ward was selected to represent Norwood High School. An Exchange Day was conducted with Wellesley High School in March. Officers [148] of our Council and representatives from the AFS Club spent the day in Wellesley and the return visit was made at a later date. The big project of the year was the Re- vision of the Student Handbook. We have been without a Blue Book for several years and it is hoped that this publication will be ready for school opening in Septem- ber, 1968. This year the Council joined the State Association of Student Councils and sent six delegates to the annual convention in Wellesley on May 12, 13. The following students attended this meeting: George O ' Brien, Gayle Kelley, Berute Jaras, Joanne Susi, Alan Thomas and William Dynan. Senator Kevin Harrington was the keynote speaker at the banquet and Mr. Gerald VanPool, Director of Student Activities of the National Council of Student Councils, was the main speaker. The Council couldn ' t have functioned without Miss Hubbard, the Adviser, and her assistant, Mr. Usevich. Their active support and deep interest in the Student Council activities made the year a pleasant and profitable one.

Membership is based on a com- bination of good citizenship and personal qualities of leadership, service and charac- ter. In Norwood eligibility is determined by honor roll status. First honors must be achieved at least three times by juniors and twice by seniors. This honor roll status must be maintained. All chapters are chartered by the Nation- al Association of Secondary School Princi- pals. Members at the end of term one included the following seniors: Noralie Cox, Maryann Daly, Elaine DeGrazio, Marcella Denzer. Thomas Donovan, Stan- ley Drost, Jeanne Finn, Jo-Ann Flaherty, Nancy Flaherty, David Gillett, Joyce Kauff- man, Linda Maggio, John McAuliffe, Peter O ' Beirne, Mary Sauer. Paul Snellgrove, Barbara Stitt, Eleanor White, and Linda Zimlicki. Junior members were Ellen Breen, Dana Craig, Carolyn Deasy, Stephen Donovan, Candace Hurley, Karen Jean Kelly. Vincent Lembo, Richard Lindahl, Patricia Maggio, Jeanne Morse, Eileen O ' Connell, Janice O ' Connell, Carol Pacia- kowski, and Janet Smith. Another group of members were added to this following the announcement of second term honor roll. The National Honor Society members offered a tutoring service in a variety of academic subjects. It was designed to help students who were capable, but who through extended absence, needed special help. This year the privilege of spending study hall time in areas of their own choice was granted to members. In February a group of students attended the conference of the Eastern Massachusetts Association of National Honor Society in Roxbury. An assembly at school introduced new members to the student body and pins were presented at the annual education night of the Chamber of Commerce. Recognition was also given these students at graduation when their names were starred on the pro- gram and their caps bore gold tassels.

This course, divided into two sections, meets after school until 3:30 once weekly for fifteen meetings. At the beginning of the year the reading list (i.e.) Plato ' s THE REPUBLIC, Machiavelli ' s THE PRINCE, More ' s UTOPIA, Butler ' s EREWHON, Bellamy ' s LOOKING BACKWARD, Hux- ley ' s BRAVE NEW WORLD, Orwell ' s 1984, and ANIMAL FARM, and Chad Walsh ' s FROM UTOPIA TO NIGHT- MARE is discussed. Later on, each stu- dent selects a topic which arises from the reading list and is of contemporary sig- nificance. After the discussion of the read- ing list is completed, each student leads the seminar in a brief analysis of his own topic, on which he then writes a research paper. There is no written examination. An important purpose of English 400 is to familiarize the student with the seminar- type course, which he will encounter fre- quently on the college level. As the course proceeds and everyone feels more at ease with everyone else, discussion of a frank- ness relatively rare in the normal class- room circumstances results. If each student develops further his ability to handle logi- cal argument, objective has been achieved.

This year the club consisted of twenty- five juniors and seniors studying French III, IV, and V. The officers were Marilyn Johnson, Linda and Patricia Maggio, and Carol Ann Walker. In the fall, the club viewed movies and slides of France at several meetings where they particularly enjoyed journeys by proxy through the chateaux area and the Ville Lumiere, Paris. They also held a Christmas meet- ing which included an exchange of gifts, and explanation of French Christmas cus- toms, and learned Christmas carols not usually taught in the classroom. During the spring, a display of French bric-a-brac, bibelots, bijouterie, and af- fiches were arranged in the corridors for the enjoyment of the audience attending the Senior Musical. The Club made two trips to French restaurants in Boston, enjoyed a tour of French art on display in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and visited French pastry shops and book- shops in Harvard Square, Cambridge. [158] Spanish Club Seated: Denzer, Crowley, Drew Standing: LoRusso, Lanzoni, Elias, Lanzoni, Wright, DeGrazio, Miss Godino, Andrea El Club Espanol At Norwood High School, El Club Es- panol endeavors to promote an exchange of ideas that involves the student in in- tellectual and cultural pursuits relative to a greater understanding of Spanish customs and traditions. The officers elected at the first meeting were : President, Marcella Denz er ; Vice- President, Lynne Crowley; Secretary, Karen Elias; Treasurer, Patricia Lan- zoni ; and Program Chairman, Martha Russell. The club has a small membership but one in which all the students actively par- ticipated. Because of this concentrated enthusiasm, many interesting activities for the year were enjoyed. The proximity of Norwood to Boston affords many opportunities in which the club participates. The Ballet Folklorico of Mexico performed in the Spring and the ballet has become an annual cultural treat which the students enjoy. The club went to the Cardinal Cushing Center for Spanish-Speaking people in Boston dur- ing the Easter Season as part of its year- ly program. In addition, many films and plays were presented which provided ex- periences in enrichment for our members.

Among them were the first junior editor-in-chief, Carolyn Deasy, carrying on the Deasey tradition, and a staff composed mostly of underclassmen. Barbara Stitt and Barbara Ward were the Literary and Features Editors and both were valuable assets to the staff. Vincent Lembo very capably handled the Sports News, while Lois Lydon and Joyce Abromo- ski filled the positions of News and Art Editors. The staff, smaller than in previous years, accomplished many things. Among these things was, that for the first time, the newspaper was entirely the production of students without professional printing or photography. Thanks to Mr. Jennings and Mr. Frost, who supervised the printing and photography, the students wrote, edited, and printed the newspaper, there- by cutting the cost considerably. For the first time in the Hilltopper ' s history, members of the staff attended the Boston Globe press conference, where they were given a chance to interview a well- known celebrity and a U.N. Delegate, and to discuss journalism with fellow editors from other high schools. 11621 THE HILLTOPPER NORWOOD HIGH SCHOOL, NORWOOD. MASS. FIVE CONTRIBUTERS AWARDED Creative Writing teacher Miss Shields recently announced that she had received a letter from Mr. Dennis Hartman, editor of the National Poetry Press of los Angeles, California. The letter announced the acceptance of five original poems composed by Norwood students into the yearly anthology, Young America Sings . Those students awarded were Catherine Kalliel, Candice Shields, Patricia Panning, Di- ane Nenart, and Vin Lembo. All the contributors received cer- tificates of achievement in recognition of their fine work. To those five students the Hilltopper offers its congratu- lations. We are most proud of you.

And so they seek out problems which call for these qualities. The Greater Boston Math League and one of its many mem- bers, the Norwood Senior High School Math Team, represent such an endeavor to seek and demonstrate the qualities of a bud- ding mathematician. Mental venturesome- ness, the desire to explore, is one of the marks of a scholar. A mathematician does not want to be told something; he wants to find it out himself. This is not exactly a humble attitude to take, but neither does it necessarily indicate conceit. It is simply the readiness to respond to any challenge. The 1966-1967 math team entered com- petition with nine other schools which comprise one of the four divisions in the Math League. Individual competitions were held in five areas of elementary mathe- matics curricula: arithmetic, algebra I, geo- metry, algebra II, trigonometry. At the completion of such contests, the school team then participated in the team ques- tion—usually an unconventional problem which stressed originality of thought rather than mere manipulative ability and intro- duced the necessity for finding new meth- ods of attack. Since each competition and the team question were timed at exactly ten minutes, a methodical, efficient mind proved to be of benefit. Our Math Team fared rather well, rank- ing eighteenth out of fifty competing schools, at the end of the half-year. [164] The Academics Seated: Donnelly, Mr. Monbouquette, Denzer Standing: Gillett, Zimlicki, Aicardi, Stitt It ' s Academic Was Great Fun A new program appeared this year on WHDH Channel 5, called It ' s Academic . This show, which was telecast every Friday evening at seven o ' clock, featured students from three high schools in Boston and its suburbs, competing in a contest designed to test their wits and measure their know- ledge. Students were questioned in every field of learning, from art to physics, from literature to mathematics, over a timed in- terval by the moderator, Art James. Quick thinking and general intelligence paid off in victory for the team with the greatest number of points. When Norwood was invited to partici- pate in this contest, fifteen students were sent to the WHDH studios to be screened. After an evening of testing, which proved to be both fun and interesting, a first team of three contestants and a second team of three alternates were chosen. The first team consisted of David Gillett, James Aicardi, and Christine Donnelly; the sec- ond team of Marcella Denzer, Barbara Stitt, and Linda Zimlicki. In their first appearance Norwood com- peted with Reading High School and Chauncy Hall High School. The Norwood team soundly defeated both of its oppo- nents and won a set of Collier ' s Encyclo- pedia, eighteen volumes of the Literary Heritage Series, and the fame that comes with victory for their school. Invited back to appear in the quarter- final playoffs, Norwood found itself facing two tough opponents, Catholic Memorial and Boston Latin High Schools. After a hard fight and an excellent showing, the team met defeat at the hands of Boston Latin. Norwood, however, was very proud of the students who represented their school so well and who won the admira- tion of the television viewers.

The Sound of Music Was Heard 99 During its four years of existence, the Concert Choir has provided the student body with an opportunity to hear and ap- preciate fine choral music. Under the di- rection of Mr. William St. Laurent, the group performed choral pieces by tradi- tional composers such as Brahms, Sibelius, and Berlios, as well as contemporary com- posers such as Aaron Copeland. The choir ' s repertoire also included folk songs and spir- ituals of rare interest. In addition to the Christmas and Spring choral concerts, the Concert Choir ' s sched- ule included performances for various civic organizations and also for the Norwood Hospital. The Concert Choir met three times a week in order to be eligible for academic credit, and rehearsals were therefore held during school hours. The corridors rang with the exuberant Sound of Music.

Curtis, Macdossan, Susi, Rowen The Stage Band Became Professional The stage band was initiated in 1965, un- der the direction of Mr. Paul Alberta. The purpose of this group was to broaden the scope of the students ' musical development in the world of modern music. Students who wanted to participate auditioned at the beginning of the school year, and eigh- teen of the most competent were selected to fulfill a very busy schedule. This very dedicated group of musicians set out to emulate the sounds of the Big Bands , and played music from Harlem Nocturne to the Beatles ' latest hits. Re- hearsals were held every Thursday evening. Since the activity of this group was con- sidered extra-curricular, no academic credit was given, but the members ' interest and capability and the enthusiasm of the audi- enc es grew even stronger throughout the year. Performances held during the year in- cluded an appearance in the Southeast District Music Festival Competition, a Ju- nior High assembly, a concert for the Se- lectmen of Norfolk County, the Senior Class Musical, and the Annual Exchange Concert.

The rough and tumble, the give and take, learned on the playing field strengthen the limbs and develop the fighting heart. School offers every student the chance to participate in sports, not only to develop this physical fitness, but also to develop a sense of fair play and good sports- manship. The realization of the value of team work and cooperation, as apposed to striving for individual glory, is one of the ultimate lessons of maturity, one more concept which will make smoother the road ahead.

Rain forced the postponement of the game against Wellesley. Norwood lost a heartbreaker, 16-15, with Wellesley ' s de- cisive two points scored on a controversial play. The Gullamen bounced back to take their next two games against Braintree, 12-8, and Framingham South, 19-6. Tom Shea ' s brilliant running was complemented by that of Senior halfback Kevin Donovan. Led by the two smallest players in the league, Joe Gugliotta and Tom Cassidy, the defense continued to excel. The next game marked the low point of the season for the locals. A revenge- conscious Natick team trounced the Mus- tangs, 38-8, with Shea ' s long run the only bright point of the afternoon. Norwood again rebounded, this time to tie Needham, 6-6, in a contest marred with penalties. The game ended on the three yardline when big Ken Sheehan was caught from behind after rambling thirty yards with an interception. The Norwood offensive machine moved into high gear in the next game, crushing Walpole, 20-24, to gain some satisfaction for last year ' s upset.

Norwood, plagued by bad luck all season, managed to win 12 games against 6 losses. The Blue- and-White quintet lost its first two games. 52-44 at the hands of Needham and 56-53 to Natick. Senior guard, Rocky Nelson, sparkled with 21 points in the latter. The Mustangs rebounded with wins over Fram- ingham South and Braintree, as senior Jack Wilson starred. Norwood split their next two with a loss to Milton and a win over Walpole. The Noletmen, paced by junior Paul Wysocki, won a close one at Wellesley. Norwood ended the first half of the season with easy victories over Fram- ingham North and Dedham. In the return match with the Natick Redmen, the Mustangs lost 67-65, despite an outstanding performance by Captain Paul Snellgrove. Nevertheless Norwood came back with a 71-60 win over Needham but came out on the short end, 54-53, in a loss to Braintree. The Mustangs were hav- ing their troubles at Framingham South, before seniors Tom Donovan and Pete O ' Beirne came off the bench to spark Nor- wood at a 65-56 win. The Big Blue crushed theii next two opponents. Walpole and Wellesley, as junior Bill Spierdowis starred in the latter. Milton, however, ended the Mustangs ' tournament hopes with a 47-42 victory. Norwood ended its season, again whipping Dedham and Framingham North. Special praise must also be given to seniors Jack Collins, Joe Gugliotta, Wes Loper, Joe Smith and Joe Rukstalis.

Picked by many to finish no higher than fourth in the standings, the Mustangs, coached by Mr. Donald Wheeler and assisted by Mr. James Gormley, had a creditable 14-2-2 record, finishing second to Needham. The highlights of the season were: the team effort in the great upset of Needham (4-1); the only hat trick of the season by Ken Reddick against Framingham South (3-0); Capt. Pete Oberlander ' s clutch win- ning goals against arch-rival Walpole (2-1) and B.C. High (2-1); the surprisingly easy win over Dedham (5-0); Rusty Tobin ' s dramatic goal in the come-from-behind vic- tory over Framingham South (3-2); Neil Higgins pro-like goal tending throughout the season which won many games, especial- ly his sparkling 26 save shutout against Auburn (3-0); Tom Shea ' s game winning goal against Marblehead (4-3); and Richie Graham ' s superlative play in the State Tourney, including the game winner over Maiden Catholic (1-0) and the only goal in the heart-breaker against Arlington (1-2). The first line, noted for its back- checking, came to life in the Tourney. Richie Graham, the playmaker and stick- handler on the team, centered the first line for Captain Pete Oberlander, whose two- way play was impressive all season, and Tom Shea, whose straight-ahead, hustling play earned him the reputation of the best defensive forward in the Bay State League. The second line, which did the bulk of the scoring during the season, saw the blossoming of three fine hockey players.

This year, however, the Cross-Country Team was caught in the throws of a re- building season. The team was comprised solely of underclassmen. Randy Rintala, a Junior and Conference Medal winner, cap- tained the team of Chris Lydon, George Parise, John Ranalli, Richard Harding, Brian MacQuarrie, Ken Meegan, and Steve Foster. Although the regular season record was somewhat disappointing, the team showed improvement by finishing in a re- spectable position in the Conference Meet. The Indoor Track Team compensated for the losses in Cross-Country by compil- ing a strong 5 and 2 record, and they were edged only by Division Champion Milton, and Revere. The Relay Team earned a fifth place medal in the State Indoor Meet. It also represented Division Three in the Met League All-Star Meet. Five boys, in addition to the Relay Team, also gained berths on the All-Star Team. Co-captains Paul Grubenskas and Tom Brissette, were consistent double event winners, Paul in the hurdles and high jump and Tom in the 300-yd. dash and shot put. Three un- derclassmen also contributed their talents to this team; Randy Rintala in the mile, Richard Harding in the two-mile, and Bob Rukstalis in the 50-yd. dash. With the abundant strength of the pres- ent underclassmen, Norwood High School may look forward to a continuation of suc- cessful track teams in the foreseeable future.

Hopkins, Kramer, Piccirilli, David, Shaw, DiCicco, Neuman, Donovan, Lightizer, Grossman The Greeks Had a Word For It One of the newest sports on the Hill is the ancient sport of wrestling, Graeco- Roraan style. As with its ancient counter- part, today ' s wrestling requires that a grappler be in the best physical and mental condition. The sport, in fact, is based on the ability to endure long periods of self- sacrifice. This self-sacrifice was not lacking among the lads who made up this year ' s wrestling team at Norwood High School. After having won only a single match in three years, this year the team compiled an improved record of five wins and only four losses. There were some bright spots along the road to this most successful season, primarily the brilliant performance of Senior Ken Sheehan, who pinned Per- doni of Wellesley and brought Norwood to within one point of upsetting a powerful Wellesley team. It will be difficult to match the undefeated records of Ken Shee- han and Richard Machado. A tribute must be paid to the consistent performance of Senior Rocco LoRusso, who, incidently. won first place in the Regional meets and a fourth in the State Meets. It ' s difficult to mention wrestling without referring to Ken Sheehan again and again, for Wrestling and Ken Sheehan were almost synonymous here on the Hill. At this same Regional Meet, we were fortunate to have Ken Shee- han and Charlie Shaw win a first place. Again, this gargantuan heavyweight, Sheehan, represented Norwood well at the State Meets and became State Champion in his weight class. All in all, Coaches Cullen and Bethoney were very well peased with the perform- ance of their wrestlers. They are hoping that the loss of Seniors Ken Sheehan, Rocco LoRusso and Tim Hopkins won ' t hinder the team chances of doing as well as they did this year.

Talbot We Were in the Swim Norwood High ' s first swimming team started in November, 1966. Having no pool at the school, the Civic pool was used three days a week. Most team members had never previously participated in com- petitive swimming. Despite this lack of experience, the boys did an outstanding job against teams with far more years of competitive swimming behind them. The team ' s record, 2-7, was unimpressive, yet it does not rightfully show how well the boys competed. The meets in which the Norwood High swimmers engaged were as follows: Brook- line, Catholic Memorial, Wellesley, West Roxbury (Y.M.C.A.), Brockton, and Xaver- ian High Schools. The core of the team was made up oE freshmen and sophomores. Seniors who did an outstanding job were Joseph Wozniak and John Rukstalis, both swimming free- style. Juniors were John Grenham in the 400-yard freestyle, Marc Orent in the 60- yard freestyle, Ray Wauhkonen in the 100-yard freestyle, and Jeffrey Altman in the 100-yard breast stroke. Sophomores were Steven Edmonds and Barry Levine in the 100-yard butterfly, Charles Mc- Auliffe, and Peter Hunt in the backstroke, and Frank Ylioki and Richard Talbot in the backstroke, also. Freshmen were An- drew Malacaria and John Lambert in the individual medley. Andrew also was out- standing in the 100-yard breaststroke, be- ing beaten only twice in the seven events. Steven Talbot showed up well in the 60- yard freestyle. With all but two swimmers returning next year, Coach Frost and his squad anticipate a far more promising season, and a greater degree of participation in this extremely worth-while sport which can be enjoyed when school days have faded into the past.

For this purpose, the 1967 Mustangs were very capably spearheaded by Co-Captains Joe Gugliotta and Jack Wilson. This year ' s team stressed pitching, speed, and defense, as the whole team was well-attuned for those facets of the game. On the mound, Captain Jack Wilson and John McManus were the team ' s right- handed aces, while Joe Giampa was the staff ' s lone left-hander. Kev Murphy was the club ' s reserve starter and relief pitcher; Joe Gugliotta, Bob Begley, and Norm Johnson all helped out on relief. Patrol- ling the area behind home plate was last year ' s capable catcher, Dennis Hebner. Forming a defensive wall in the infield were Captain Joe Gugliotta, at second base, and Kevin Orme at shortstop, as a double-play combination. Also part of the double-play threat was shortstop Tom Gug- liotta, who gave added depth to the in- field. In charge of the outer corners of the diamond were Jack Collins at first base, and Jack Cronin at third base. In the out- field, Kevin Donovan, Karl McCarthy, and Ron Anderson covered a lot of ground, while Steve Falcone, Steve Fischer, and Bob McHugh provided the club with depth in that area. Speed was provided by Karl McCarthy, Captain Joe Gugliotta and Russ Mike, who made a habit of sliding safely into second base. At the plate, Kevin Donovan, Jack Cronin and Norm Johnson were distance hitters who tallied a lot of scores for Nor- wood High. Following last year ' s pattern, the base- ball team began the season with a slow start, but with 13 games remaining as we go to press, the club expects to finish high in the final standings. This year ' s team was a hustling, high-spirited crew, who re- fused to be put down and were fitting representatives for Norwood High.

The people of Norwood take pride in their schools, and rejoice in the scholastic accomplishments and sporting achievements attained by the students. To the merchants of the town, who realize that the production of a yearbook needs community backing, the yearbook editors extend their appreciation.

Mustangs Started Well and Finished Better (Continued from Page 186) some fancy running in addition to an ef- fective passing game. The following Saturday Norwood met a Milton team boasting the biggest line in the state. The Mustangs could not get untracked in the sea of mud until the second half, losing 19-7. The season ended on a happy note on Thanksgiving Day. The new score board was given a good workout as the Mustangs, sparked by Tom Shea ' s five touchdowns, defeated Dedham, 36-32. Every senior played in a game which kept the fans on their feet until the final whistle. Much of the credit for the team ' s fine record of five wins, three losses and one tie must go to the coaches, who never lost patience or faith in their players despite a series of crippling injuries to such key personnel as Billy Knowlton, Joe Gug- liotta, Steve Donovan, Steve DiCicco, and Charley Kelley. The success of this team centered on team work. No one epitomized this kind of spirit better than captain Tom Dono- van. His tremendous blocking, clutch run- ning and star defensive playing were an inspiration to his team mates and a source of pride to Norwood High School. Although losing many outstanding se- niors, next year ' s team promises to be even more successful with such fine returning lettermen as Co-captains Mike Santospago and Tom Shea, both Bay State League all- stars, and Rich Machado, Steve Donovan and Dave Mogan. They Battled to The Last Ditch ?? (Continued from Page 194) Denny Hebner centered the line and led the team in assists. Ken Reddick led the team in scoring and earned a place on the Bay State League All-Stars. On the other wing was sophomore Tom Taylor who scored ten goals with his hustle and deter- mination. John Ranalli and Ed Graham did outstanding jobs as penalty killers. The Mustangs had two of the best de- fensemen in the state in Jack Cronin and Rusty Tobin. Cronin, a Bay State All-Star, was noted for moving opposing forwards from in front of the net. Tobin was the best poke checking defenseman in the league. Bob Begley deserves credit for job as third defenseman. Goalie Neil Higgins repeated as All-Star and All-Scholastic. He also was named to the All-Tourney team and received the MVP Award. His 22 shutouts for two sea- sons attest to his ability. Coach Wheeler did another great job in molding this year ' s team into a winner. The team ' s overall record of 18-3-2 brings his five year coaching record at Norwood to a fantastic 67-17-8.

It ' s not so easy to write in a few words, but I had a wonderful year, which was the most enjoyable but the hardest year in my life. The great differences in customs took me a long time to really get used to. My American father says that I ' m not friendly to America, because I still don ' t care for apple pie. The language handicap made three or four times more work in my assign- ments and made me realize how dumb I was. (It might be true). The dif- ferences in the L-sound and the R-sound really bothered me. I used to be teased, Oko, ret ' s go to Fliendry ' s for a ftappe. Oh, well, I ' ve learned. I think I have forgotten most of the things that made me feel unhappy or were unpleasant at first. I remember how excited I was watching football games, though I couldn ' t understand the rules at all. Parties and school dances were so much fun. How I enjoyed the senior play, the senior musical, the concerts climbing Blue Hill and so many things that I can ' t name them all here but 1 11 never forget them. (Don ' t doubt my brains!). I have been well trained by crazy people, I mean people with a great sense of humor this year. I ' m afraid that my serious people at home may not take me back. I am supposed to lose one whole school year at home; however I can say that it ' s worth it, for my life here in America can best be summed up as follows: Oh, boy, I had a ball!

Gallos and Mr. William E. St. Laurent My Japanese Sister An AFS sister was not very different from the kind that grows at home, but it is these few differences that make up the heart of the AFS principles. Ryoko was always willing to give up her time to teach about her country and. was always eager to learn more about the United States ' customs and ideals. Her roles of student and teacher combined with her more difficult role of sister to make her a welcome family member. As a student she was puzzled by girls in shorts, my father ' s occasional at- tempts at cooking dinner, and the girls shouting at football games. She asked countless questions such as, Where do I sit in the car on a date? and giggled or quietly nodded her head at each answer. She was often amazed by such things as a little brother ' s feeble attempt at singing like Bob Dylan and reacted by shouting above the din What you doing? She found hours spent in the supermarket fascinating and would often burst out in surprise with a comment such as, Dog food— don ' t those silly people know dogs eat rice? Perhaps her most difficult role was as a student in her academic career. The language barrier was an obstacle which could only be overcome by long hours of study and nights with little sleep. Unusual problems like the Japanese method of writing the denominator of a fraction above the numerator caused much frustration when she tried to adapt to our opposite method. Her job as a teacher was a very trying one. She answered endless questions about her country and even heard in her sleep the inevitable question Do you like the United States? Much to the despair of my mother she taught my little brothers the art of juggling apples and there was many an apple splat on the floor to show for it. As a sister, she was always around and willing to listen when things weren ' t going well. She consistently defended my position and became adjusted to dropping subtle hints to my parents when my own failed. An AFS sister was at once a student, teacher, and sister but most important she was a friend — and this is the greatest compliment of all.
