' - ' T, ,-iVi ... .t¥ ' M -..-.«.,, ' ' ,-si foreword The thread that runs so truly through our yearbook concerns the issue of the involvement of youth in today ' s society. Techniques for involving students in decision- making must begin to play a major part in our educa- tional system if it is to survive. Something productive must evolve from the energies of vociferous students when the communication barrier between them and adults is broken. It seems that the answer to our problems no longer is to return to the basics of organizing society and to do anew much that we have done before. ' What the nation requires is: courage to experiment and to change in a dangerous world., willingness to relinquish wealth and time for the common good, regard for dissent and individuality; and respect for intelligence and the right to achieve happiness . n lorwood Senior _Ml k School f orwood, If I ' laddackudetts lORWOOD HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARV Nichols Stftst % jS.

Dunn and Mr. John B. Kelley, who together have given sixty-two years of service to Norwood Senior High School. MR. JAMES A. DUNN A sauve and polished gentleman With manners that could charm, A sense of humor sharp and keen Too subtle to cause harm. A wardrobe chosen with great taste And worn with style and flair To our rather mundane corridors He really lent an air. His gift for just the perfect word, His scorn for cliches trite. Bespoke the independent man, Who knew when he was right. [6] edicatcoH Mr. Dunn was Chairman of the Mathematics Department and Mr. Kelley was Chairman of the Business Department and School Treasurer. To each of these distinguished gentlemen we wish happiness and long life. MR. JOHN B. KELLEY For many a year he graced our halls That baritone voice resounding. Its deep and velvety tones the walls Re-echoed with clearness astounding. His rollicking laugh was heartening to hear; A party without him was stale. He said what he felt without malice or fear And with kindness that would r ot fail. A man ' s man whom the women adored, His charisma reached high and wide. He was wise and witty and never bored, And as staunch as a rock in the tide.

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. [91 acuiti Every generation goes through some disquieting ex- periences because of disparity in values and interests. This is as it should be because a difference in perspec- tive is natural and inevitable. Teachers today must rely less on authority and more on leadership., if we are to become effective in re-shaping American education to meet the needs of the new youth. To impart knowl- edge is most certainly a primary function of education but to help young people become responsible adults is even more imp ortant. To the exercise of this respon- sibility a forward-looking faculty must truly dedicate itself. The teacher is the last outpost of help. ' ' He can make or break a student ' s desire to become involved in the world. The teacher who can instill in his students., confidence in their own abilities., and who can inspire them to live up to the trust that is in them has made a lasting contribution to real education.

This generation more than any other before gives greater importance to relating to people than to acquiring material wealth. Their activities., although frequently marred by a spirit of violence., are neverthe- less directed toward national and international benefit in a truly personal sense. As we leave our high school years behind, we have learned that the surge of involve- ment is good only if it is constructive. We believe that discontent with the status quo keeps society as a whole more vital and meaningful. As individuals and in behalf of all individuals, we intend to commit ourselves to the spirit of brotherly love and to the goal of societal amelioration.

[1031 1041 1969 Class Officers as Freshmen Left to Right: Reynolds, Fischer, Ostrom, Clark, Poniatowski, Levine We Were Strong and of Good Courage • r HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1969 OUR FRESHMAN YEAR In September, 1965, we approached the Hill, armed with pencils and paper, new clothes and new hair styles, and a great deal of determination. Our debut at NHS was certainly to be a once-in-a-lifetime ex- perience. Our first class election resulted in this impressive slate of officers: President Barry Levine, Vice-President Marylee Clark, Secretary Ann Poniatowski, Treas- urers Janet Ostrom and John Fitzpatrick, and A.A. Representatives Linda Reynolds and Steve Fischer. ' 69 ' s premiere social event, the Frosh Party, was held in October. The feature of the evening was a band competition, re- solved by the audience, who chose by applause The Aces over the The Hix. Our athletes made a name for them- selves as early as the freshman year. Foot- ball players included Tom Gugliotta, Dave Mogan, Jack Adelmann, Steve Fischer, Clyde McCray, Walt Litchfield, and Bill Mannion; the team placed second in the league. The basketball season was highly successful, ending a 12-2 co-champion record; the team included Captain Walt Litchfield, Steve Fischer, Clyde McCray, Norm Sacco, and Doug Fisher. The hockey team ' s second-place record was 4-2-4; Cap- tains John Ranalli and Artie Harris piloted Jim Scott, Tom Taylor, Jeff Songin, and Gary Sortevik through the season. The following students asserted scholas- tic prowess during the freshman year: Rich Bayer, Robert Burns, Ginny Burns, Kevin Chin, Jeanne Donnelly, Barbara Eisener, Pat Fanning, Sean Flaherty, Jim Hynes, Karla Johnson, Barry Levine, Tom Lydon, Dick Shay, Judy Shellmer, Bar- bara Tausey, and Don Twomey. In all facets of NHS life, we had a fine year for a group of beginners. [1051 OCT. 22 ,1965 m§m p ■ smV 1969 Class Officers as Sophomores Front: Orme, Ylijoki, Poniatowski, Mogan Rear: Acker, Clark, Ranalli Now We Belonged HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1969 OUR SOPHOMORE YEAR 99 When we returned in fall, 1966, we were no longer the youngest and greenest on the Hill. Encouraged by this feeling of belonging, we forged ahead to new ac- complishments in a school where we now felt at home. Sophomore class officers were President Dave Mogan, Vice-President Marylee Clark, Secretary Ann Poniatowski, Treas- urers Kathy Orme and Frank Ylijoki, and A. A. Representatives Elizabeth Acker and John Ranalli. Our Sophomore Party was a great suc- cess. The Wayward Moss and the Grim Reapers supplied the musical entertain- ment, and a melodrama entitled Wild Nell, Pet of the Plains provided a humor- ous respite from the dancing. As the dance broke up, small groups drifted off to different parties to finish the evening, and the occasion was climaxed the next day with a class football game. Sophomore athletes included football regulars Dave Mogan, Tom Gugliotta, Fred O ' Connell, Steve Fischer, Jack Adel- mann, and Bob Donovan: hoopsters Walt Litchfield, Tom Gugliotta, Dan McQuaid, Clyde McCray, and Norm Sacco; and hockey ace John Ranalli. ' 69 ' s spirited cheerleaders that year were Kathi Dono- van, Betsy Acker, and Janet Ostrom. All our athletes, cheerleaders, and fans worked together to bring fame to the Class of ' 69. Superior students undaunted by the steadily increasing work load were Gmny Burns, Kelvin Chin, Pat Fanning, Karla Johnson, Tom Lydon, Kathy Orme, Mary Parkinson, and Barbara Tausey. In aca- demics as well as athletics we strove to establish prestige. As our second year drew to a close, we all looked forward with mixed emotions to the important year ahead. [1081 1969 Class Officers as Juniors Fischer, O ' Connell, Scollins, Mogan, Orme, Donovan ii ' An Obstacle Course 99 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1969 OUR JUNIOR YEAR Back we came in ' 67 to a new role — • — upperclassmen ! This year of pressure brought many changes to our lives, some obvious and some imperceptible. Our elections this year were close, call- ing for several recounts, with this group the final outcome: Dave Mogan, Presi- dent; Fred O ' Connell, Vice-President; Ann Poniatowski, Secretary; Kathy Orme and Bob Donovan Treasurers; and Debby Scollins and Steve Fischer, A. A. Rep- resentatives. Our class contributions were too great to enumerate. Many former J.V. players graduated to Varsity, growing in skill and enthusiasm. The Junior cheerleaders, Kathi Donovan, Janet Ostrom, and Betsy Acker, brought talent and spirit to all athletic events. Academically, the Junior year seemed to be a make us or break us one. We plowed through the PSAT, NMSQT, and CEEB tests and were introduced to Cham- ber of Commerce Essays. By faculty vote, these members of our class joined the National Honor Society: Richard Bayer, Kelvin Chin, Patti Fanning, Karla John- son, Barry Levine, Roy Lydon, Sue Nolan, Joanne O ' Day, Anne O ' Donnell, Kathy Orme, Tara O ' Toole, and Barbara Tausey. Chris McQuillan and Barry Levine were finalists in the AFS exchange student competition; Barry was chosen as our am- bassador, his destination Thailand. Roy Lydon was given the Harvard Book award as the outstanding Junior boy. Spring arrived, bringing with it the flurry of preparation for the Junior Prom. On May tenth we danced to the music of Jeff Stoughton and his orchestra in the southern-plantation-styled cafeteria. In June we bid a sad farewell to the Class of ' 68, knowing we would be taking their places in three short months.

As Seniors we responsibly undertook our role as leaders of the stu- dent body. This year we had a charming new member to help us — German ex- change student Barbara Mueller. Our election of office rs was enlivened by two startling upsets. David Mogan and Fred O ' Connell returned as President and Vice-President, but our Secretary of three years was unseated by Jean English, and the office of Girls ' Treasurer was ceded after two years by Kathy Orme to Deborah Brady. Bob Donovan and Debby Scollins were reelected Boys ' Treasurer and Girls ' A.A. representative, and Dick Donovan ran unopposed for Boys ' A.A. During our Senior year we set many precedents which we hope will become tradition. In the fall we held the first NHS Senior Auction and Dance (SAD). With Mamee Clark and Jerry Drummey as auctioneers, many members of our class were sold to underclassihen. Senior slaves carried books, opened doors, and bought lunches. That night a sock hop was held in the boys ' gym, where we were entertained by the Filet of Soul. The two days were highly successful in terms of both finances and fun. Another of our triumphs was the ap- proval of a Senior Semiformal; the buffet and dance, with music by the Filet of Soul which were held on February 20 at the King Philip Irm in Wrentham. The Senior Play, Good Morning, Miss Dove, was presented on December sixth and seventh. Director Mrs. Louis Buscone brought out the star in Thespians Mamee Clark, Ellen DiCicco, Ron Ostrom, Mary Pazniokas, and Charlie McAuliffe. These were the leading performers, but the entire production encompassed the talents of many other Seniors as well. Our abundant musical talents were channelled into April ' s production of [114] Guys and Dolls. Many thanks are due to the Music Department and all faculty members and students who made possible the musicale ' s success. Leading roles were played by Ron Ostrom, Paula Greene, Virginia Syverson, Charlie McAuliffe, Dan Eys ie, Doug Fisher, Peter Garvin, and Doug Lawes. Under the relentless pressure of Editor- in-Chief, Tara O ' Toole, the Hilltopper was transformed during the year into a real newspaper, complete with ads, photos, and a professional printing job. Editors ' chairs belonged to Chris McQuillan, Mark Wilson, Patti Fanning, Nancy LeBlanc, Lynn Horsman, and Dick Shay; the faculty adviser was Miss Clines. Our major publication, of course, was the 1969 Tiot. We scored many firsts here, too, as the format was revised and exciting new concepts were introduced. Co-Editors- in-Chief Kelvin Chin and Mary Pazniokas spent many long, tiring hours on the job accepting only the best from their staffs. Other editors were the following: Circula- tion, Anne O ' Donnell, Joanne O ' Day, Richard Bayer, and Doug Fisher; Adver- tising, Rick Talbot, and Kathy Orme; Sponsor editors Ellen DiCicco and Tom Lydon; Art Editors Marilyn Clinch, Art Saarinen, and Susan Koval. Mrs. Florence Riley was the adviser. Sports have been of major interest to the Class of 1969 since our freshman year. Football aces Dave Mogan, Fred O ' Con- nell, Tom Gugliotta, Steve Fischer, Jack Adelmann, and Bob Donovan worked their way through four years and deserve praise for their accomplishments of each year. Dave Mogan piloted the ' 68- ' 69 season. In basketball our ' 69 team ' s spirit and skill rendered their overall lack of height insignificant. Many of these boys have also been playing since the ninth grade. Taking the cue from manager Jim Tenety were hoopsters Dan McQuaid, John Eagan, Clyde McCray, Norm Sacco, and Mark Wilson. Leading them were captains Tom Gugliotta and Walt Litchfield. The climax of the season was an uproarious Student- Faculty Game, complete with cheerleaders true and very false; only the scorekeep- ers know the actual outcome. The game was followed by a brief sock hop. Our hockey squad, thanks to the return of several seasoned veterans and the as- tounding use of many newcomers by Coach Wheeler was a champion second place team. Co-Captains John Ranalli and Dick Donovan led Gerry McTernan, Tom Taylor, Gary Sortevik, and goalie Artie Harris to a well-deserved Tourney berth. Their industrious manager, Jerry McDermott, has been with these boys for four years. Much more could be said in tribute to these boys, but suffice to say that theirs was a valiant fight all the way from the bottom to the heartbreaking loss at the Arena. Senior cheerleaders, never lacking in talent or energy, were Betsy Acker, Janet Ostrom, Nancy Patsos, and Captain Kathi Donovan. A tribute to the dauntless spirit of our class is that we accomplished all our winter activities in spite of the adverse weather. ' 69 had the dubious privilege of witnessing more snowstorms than many, many pre- ceding classes. In May we held the Senior Prom, our foremost social event of the year; young ladies and gentlemen blossomed suddenly with the realization of the prominence of this May evening. Our final days at NHS were marked by both regret and celebration. The Class of Nineteen Hundred and Sixty-Nine eager- ly looks to the future with the knowledge that we can and will accomplish what we wish. We bid a fond and reluctant fare- well to Barbara; and we leave with grati- titude to all who have made our high school years profitable, and a good luck wish to the classes we leave behind. We step forward keeping in mind that It is not enough to have great qualities; we must also have the management of them. SUSAN NOLAN Class Historian [115] ■ r Three Top Senior Men Left to Right: Mogan, Chin, Piccirilli Triad on the Hill The three in the picture above are prob- ably the most influential students at Nor- wood High School this year. They are David Mogan, 1969 class President, Kelvin Chin, editor-in-chief of the Tiot, and Paul Piccirilli, Student Council President. The three not only held these prestigious posi- tions during their senior year, but also ac- complished much in their academic en- deavors. Dave Mogan, a potent component of the championship wrestling coterie, also served as Captain of the Norwood Mustang Foot- ball Team this season. His superior athletic tactics and scholastic ability should win him a spot at Bates next year. Kelvin Chin has been a permanent member of both the Marching Band and Stage Band during his high school years, not to mention his long-standing National Honor Society status. His worthy service as editor of the 1969 Tiot wins him a top spot in the N.H.S. Hall of Fame. Kelvin currently hopes for a well-deserved ticket to Harvard next fall. Paul Piccirrilli is known throughout our hallowed halls for his memorable service to the school as president of a most produc- tive Student Council. The astounding suc- cess of Paul ' s Senior Auction is only one example of his devout school spirit and worthy leadership qualities. Paul will continue his academic career next fall at Bridgewater State College. [116] Foreign Exchange Students BARBARA MUELLER AND BARRY LEVINE The U.S.A. and I Poignant points in my memory My anticipation and trepidation upon arriving in Boston, on August thirteenth and meeting my American family. My bewilderment at how hard it was to understand English, which I thought I knew a bit about. My first days at NHS, when I had so much difficulty finding the right way to the classrooms. My visits to Boston and the awe-inspir- ing view from the top of the Prudential Center. The delicious turkey dinners at Thanks- giving and Christmas. My pleasure in participating in the Hallelujah Chorus and the Christmas Concert. Learning about American college life and customs at Harvard University ... a liberal education! All the wonderful teachers and students at NSH, who were so kind to me all year long. The new friends I found here, my sister Linda and all the Reynolds, who were a marvelous host family. Barbara Mueller Thailand Tidbits Highlights of my visit there Rising every morning at six to the crow- ing of roosters, the quacking of ducks, and the grunting of pigs. The burning sensation which accom- panied my first spoonful of curry. Wearing a uniform to school i.e. short pants, ankle socks, and sneakers, a welcome informality. The imeasy feeling I had while hold- ing hands with boys (a Thai sign of friendship) . Bargaining with the merchants every- time I went shopping — they always tried to charge me too much because I was a foreigner, or did I look gullible? Studying Buddhism with my own pri- vate monk and the difficulties that I en- coimtered trying to learn the Thai lan- guage. The new friends I made and my very kind and understanding host family, the Tumvasorns whose hospitality and genuine interest will remain forever in my mem- ory. The utter joy of returning to my native land and my own family. Barry Levine [117] (curricula If the stream of culture is to be maintained the violent overthrow of our educational system cannot be per- mitted and the radical minority must be convinced that change is not always betterment. This requires that school curricula be expanded and frequently re-evalu- ated, and that young people be given the chance, with proper guidance, to have a greater share in mapping their own education. Values must be taught by precedent and example, but they should not be imposed on a new generation without these young people having the chance to explore, discuss, and decide what values are important to them. More and more youth are demand- ing individual educational opportunities. A balanced curricula enables the students to discover in which areas they excel and then prepares them sufficiently to do their own thing. [1191 Guidance Department Guidance Department 1. Mr. Morris points out his favorite joke. 2. Mrs. Goepner shows the family pictures. 3. What ' s so funny about Cathy wanting to be a plumber, Mr. Parker? [120] After a busy summer the Guidance Department which operates round the calendar settled quickly into smooth, full-time performance. For the first time in its history the staff remained intact, resulting in a stability that benefitted everyone concerned. Preparation for the evaluation procedure was an added dimension to the usual pro- gram. The challenge of meeting the visit- ing team provided an exhilaration which carried over throughout the year and will be felt far into the future as the staff strives to fulfill the many constructive recommendations presented for our con- sideration. This year we joined the Education Co- operative in conjunction with twelve sur- rounding towns. The main concern of this organization is a program in guidance for the non-college bound students. In this group we will be considering vocational assessment and counseling, training and placement, community education and cur- ricukim changes. With colleges becoming more selective and the economy becoming more technical, it is evident that the young person who does not seek academ- ic training must seek vocational train- ing. There is no place for the unskilled worker in society today. The high school curriculum will be designed to accom- modate the student who desires to perfect a saleable skill on the secondary level, while the guidance department will be equipped to aid the student who desires to seek special training elsewhere in grades 13 and 14. No longer is preparation for college the main concern of your high school. Instead we hope to offer a com- plete guidance service for all students in the community. Counselors are often sent out by the school department to attend significent conferences held in the greater Boston area and sometimes even farther afield. In this way the community of Norwood is able to relate to the mainstream of cur- rent trends and practices in the nation at large assuring two-way communication between society and school. English Department The Norwood Senior High School Eng- lish Department offers a wide vareity of courses in the English language and in literature. Course offerings are planned to develop and increase power in the use of language skills, to provide an introduc- tion to and a basic understanding of our literary heritage, and to enrich and en- large personal horizons. Students are helped to develop an aware- ness of both the practical and aesthetic aspects of all phases of the traditional Eng- lish curriculum. Various literary types of all ages and cultures form the core around which revolve rhetorical, compositional, grammatical and oratorical experiences of the English classroom. Special instruction is provided through the Developmental Reading and Study Skills Programs to in- crease the students ' comprehension and rate of reading speeds. The English Department also offers to selected students a variety of elective courses: Drama; Public Speaking; Creative Writing; and English 400, a seminar en- titled Utopian Societies in Literature. Introduced this year was a lecture semi- nar course, An Introduction and the Humanities. Norwood High School students are as- signed to English courses, which, insofar as possible, are specially adapted for their needs, interests and abilities. A curricu- lum guide, prepared by members of the English Department, summarizes the aims of the English curriculum and guides the faculty in its presentation of the total English program.

Mr. Sweeney, this book should be censored! 2. Believe it or not, Mr. Benin, this is Russia. 3. Aw, come on, Mr. Nolet, would I do a thing like that? 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 Ancient Civiliza- tion and American History I. Upon suc- cessful completion of these courses, stu- dents advance to Western Civilization and American History II. Those students who are taking American History I and II are 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, An- cient Civilization or American Govern- ment is offered in the Freshman year. Sophomores will take Western Civiliza- tion, and Juniors will take United States History. At the Senior year level, the col- lege preparatory student has a wider selec- tion of courses. The student may select any two of the following courses, which will be given during two terms in the academic year: Asian Studies, Russian Studies, International Relations, or Recent United States History. A full year course in Economics is also offered for the college preparatory student. 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. World Geography in the Sophomore year, United States History in the Junior year, and a choice of ether Contemporary Affairs or Economics in the Se nior year. [122] 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 are con- tinuing with the Biological Sciences Cur- riculum 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 contribute to an understanding of import- ant biological concepts. For those students with a special interest in Biology or in re- lated 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 principals. It will be possible for these students to do advanced work in chemistry which we are due to offer in 1969-1970. We are continuing with PSSC Physics 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 planets. We stress laboratory work be- cause it contributes so much to interest in and comprehension of the course. Science Department 1. That wave generator really turns Joanne on. 2.

' i9« For the first time, the mathematics de- partment has available a computer term- inal for use in solving mathematics prob- lems. The model 33 teletype unit, which is housed in room 19, looks very unimpres- sive. However, through the miracle of electronics this terminal can converse with a computer in Boston. One simply dials the number of the Boston computer and the computer will answer the telephone and is ready to solve the problem. The computer is a General Electric model 235 which can handle forty differ- ent requests at the same time. It performs its function so rapidly that no one would suspect that there were thirty-nine other people using the same computer. The pedogogical reason for having the computer as a supplement to the mathe- matics curriculum is simply this: If one can tell the computer how to do a prob- lem, then one has learned how to do the problem. This hypothesis is based on the fact that in order to get the computer to execute a problem one must break the problem down into small elements. In this way one cannot help but learn how to do the problem. Plans for the future include the utiliza- tion of space in the planned resource cen- ter for this terminal. This will provide access to the computer for students dur- ing the evening hours and possibly on Saturdays. An important side benefit of using this tool for mathematics problems is that one becomes familiar with computers and computer programming which usually af- fect every aspect of our life. In the not too distant future students wi ll be leaving Norwood High School with considerable skill in computer programming. Mathematics Department 1. Tom has Mary in a whirl. 2.

The first year of French may be completed at the Junior High School and continued through the four years of Senior High School. German, Spanish and Latin may presently be studied for four years. The ultimate objectives of modern language study are to develop aural com- prehension to the point where the student will be able to understand with reason- able accuracy the language as spoken at normal speed by a native of that country; to develop oral ability to the point where he can express himself verbally with rea- sonable fluency in correct and idiomatic language; to develop reading ability to the point where he can read literary lan- guage with ease and appreciation for style, and to develop writing ability to the point where he may compose language which is simple and correct, with varied vocabul- ary and precise usage of words and ex- pressions. In addition to the development of these skills, another goal is to develop a deep appreciation and knowledge of the culture and civilization of the countries whose languages are being studied. Some general objectives for the Latin curriculum include: to equip the student with the fundamentals of Latin in order to permit him to read the language with understanding and appreciation; to ac- quaint him with a selection of Latin classics; to develop a facility for under- standing the structure of language; to de- velop in the student an awareness of the vast number of Ejiglish words derived from Latin and to acquaint him with the content of classical civilization and its relevance to today ' s world. Foreign Languages 1. Is Latin really a dead language? 2. They ' re really speaking English. 3. Oh oh oh, Kathy! II faut payer! [1251 Business Department Business education is an essential part of the American way of life and its cul- ture. It must take into consideration the vocational education and the general edu- cation of future citizens. The aim in busi- ness education, therefore, is to teach skills that will enable young citizens to earn a living and to contribute to their general knowledge and well-being for the rest of their lives. To meet the challenge of business edu- cation, our Business Department offers the following courses: bookkeeping, busi- ness law, general business training, junior business, office machines and filing, record- keeping, stenography and typewriting. Many students take a series of courses to provide them with vocational training as terminal students who will secure full- time business positions. Other students will select certain courses to provide for their personal needs. Business requirements and the respon- sibilities of business positions are con- stantly changing. In a continuing effort to stay abreast of the trends in business, this year we have introduced a new subject offering, data processing. The course gives students a practical understanding of manual data processing and two types of automated systems for handling office work — the unit record system and the electronic-computer system. The courses offer all students an oppor- tunity to select subject matter to provide for their individual needs so that they may achieve satisfaction in a life work and in developin g responsible citizenship.

[1261 Home Economics Department The Home Economics Department of- fers high school girls an opportunity to develop themselves as responsible individ- uals through class experience which can be put into practice in their daily living. The girls are taught to use the sewing machine and to use patterns. Samplers of hand stitches are made. The ability to fit and alter garments while constructing them is taught. In studying fashion and good grooming the girls become aware of the principles of good grooming in regard to personal appearance. Tailored garments and techniques of making coats and suits are included in the advanced classes. The fundamentals of good nutrition and planning ' b reakfasts, lunches, and dinners are taught. Good safe housekeep- ing practices are emjihasized, and correct rules of tablesetting for different types of meals are learned. The girls enjoy the art of simple cake decorating and flower arrangements. Field trips are planned; the girls visit a local florist with a visit through the green- house and showroom and then a most interesting demonstration by the floral de- signer. Several different floral arrange- ments are demonstrated and made for the girls. A trip to the Peabody School shows the girls the specialized art of cake decorating. Outside speakers visit the classes and give interesting demonstrations and lectures. Some of these are on fashion design, types of fabrics, making plastic flowers; kitchen demonstrations are given by the home service department of a local utility company. The Elective Home Economics classes and Home Management classes are made available to girls not having time to take major Home Economics. In these courses the girls are introduced to many aspects of home life and family care. Home Economics Department 1 . After this we can make paper dolls. 2.

[1271 Reading Department and Library READING DEPARTMENT The reading program at Norwood High School serves a two-fold purpose: Study Skills, the Freshman Program, is an at- tempt to bring all freshman students up to a level at which they can use the skills necessary for success in their senior high school program. The materials the reading programs employ in and out of school are fraught with contemporary issues and prob- lems. The freshman course of study con- sists of various skills: main idea, inference, sequence, and imagery, all of which are applied directly to daily classroom assign- ments. Developmental Reading, an elec- tive for upperclassmen, provides a chance to extend all the vital areas of reading. The upperclassmen skills are similar in many ways, except that the emphasis is on varying the rate of reading according to the material being read. Since reading is a continuous growth process, even the good reader can be encouraged to read at higher levels. LIBRARY The school library continues to over- flow with books and students. This year, happily, hope for relief is dawning. The plans for the new addition to the high school include a magnificent new in- structional materials center so large there will be no longer any need for library attendance head counts nor for books stacked on window sills. Meanwhile, the library does its best to cope with the situa- tion and to build its book collection for the future. As in all the years since its opening, the library is indebted to the members of the Library Service Club for assistance indispensable to its operation. lihrary and Reading 1.

They are en- couraged to discover personal means of communication through the organization of the plastic elements to give form to their ideas. Students who become especially interested in the three dimensional arts may explore clay, wood, stone, plastics, and metals. ART MAJOR PROGRAM: The Art Major Program is planned to challenge talented students who are interested iii knowing more about the visual arts, and for those students who will make it their vocation. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Our elective program is very extensive and includes: Music Appreciation 1 and 2, Music Theory 1 and 2, Girls ' Choir, Con- cert Chorale, Voice Class, Band, Woodwind Ensemble, Brass Ensemble, and Percussion Ensemble. The performing vocal groups include The Concert Chorale (mixed voices) (65), The Girls ' Choir (30), and The Madrigals (20). The Madrigals won an honorable mention at the Southeast District audi- tion festival and nine vocalists were se- lected to participate in the annual District Concert with recommendations for all- state participation going to six students. The performing instVumental groups include the Marching Band (80), Concert Band (69), and Stage Band (20). These groups are performing music of very high quality. In competition with approximate- ly 75 schools from Southeastern Massachu- setts, our Concert Band won the Class A Concert Band Trophy and our Stage Band was rated among the top three, Music Art 1 .

[1291 Physical Education Department The physical education program 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 towards play and to set up proper standards of sportsmanship. Physical Education classes are held two periods per week for Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and three periods per week for Freshman. The intramural sports offered to girls are field hockey, basketball, softball, archery and gymnastics; and to the boys because of limited facilities, basketball, and gymnastics. We plan to expand this program in the near future. The interscholastic program is also a very important part of our Physical Edu- cation set-up. It is conducted for girls in field hockey, basketball, swimming, gymnastics, tennis and softball. Outdoor track for girls will soon be added to the program. For the boys, we offer football, cross country, soccer, basketball, hockey, indoor and outdoor track, gymnastics, swimming, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf. La Crosse is the next activity planned to be added to our interscholastic schedule. Health is a required class for all sopho- more students. It is given two periods per week and is taught by the physical edu- cation instructors. The course consists of lectures on personal hygiene, first aid, drugs, alcohol , smoking, physical and mental diseases. 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 activities with a bright future ahead when we have our additional complex.

[1301 Industrial Arts Department Industrial Arts Education is designed to help prepare individuals for meeting the requirements of a technological cultiu-e. The students learn through direct experi- ences with tools, machines, and materials, and through close working association with classmates and teachers. The curri culum provides opportunities for the stu- dents to have comprehensive and enrich- ing experiences that will enable them to acquire basic knowledge, un derstandings, and skills in the fundamental principles, techniques, procedures, and processes used in industry. The application of an idea from its inception in the mind of the learner includes planning, designing, lay- ing out, cutting, shaping, fabrication, and finishing. It is designed to discover and develop student talents in industrial- technical fields, while stressing skills in the safe use of tools and machines. In addition, industrial arts electives offer an unequaled opportunity for students to develop leisure time interests and skills so necessary for a well-rounded life in an era of short work weeks and time-saving devices. The individual courses provide experi- ence in correctly performing operations involving b isic industrial hand tools and common machines. They develop an appre- ciation of good craftsmanship and the ability to select and use wisely the prod- ucts of industry. Safety habits with hand tools and ma- chines is one of the main objectives in all shop curricula. Industrial Arts Department 1. Did you use a ruler for those lines or a comb? 2.

We hope that their high school years will teach them that the best discipline is self-discipline and that the world will revert to chaos if all rules are suspended. This, however, does not eliminate the possibility of questioning the validity and relevance of many of the traditional viewpoints held in such high esteem by a few reactioneries . We have the privilege of making known our disagreement and of working by peaceful and cooperative means to change what we feel must be changed. Persistance, not lawless upheaval, can and will accomplish changes in our society that present day conditions demand. [133] JUNIORS SH t .E5?E sr ffi„ SILflS MflRNER Officers - Class of 1970 Standing: Kelley, Gushing, Kennedy, O ' Brien, Manfro Seated: Curtin (Missing — Orme) A Third Year of Struggle and Success At the close of summer 1968 the mem- bers of the Class of ' 70 dauntlessly re- turned to the Hill this time as juniors, in the year rumored to be the most difficult academically but also the most fun, socially. They immediately set up their own administration, reelecting Walter Orme as Vice President, Tom Kennedy as Boys ' Treasurer, Joan Kelley as Girls ' Treasurer, and Arnold Cushing as Boys ' A. A. repre- sentative. President Billy O ' Brien was elected by a write-in vote and other names on the slate of new officers were Betsy Curtin; Secretary, and Toni Manfro, Girls ' A. A. representative. Junior boys dominated many Varsity teams and were responsible for some very successful sports seasons. Through their tremendous efforts, victory after victory will be scored in the coming year. Cheering the athletes on to fame and glory were Junior cheerleaders Sandy Columbo, Susan Bragg, Chris Phillips, and, in her first year on the squad, Nancy Smith. As part of our preparation for future education, we took Pre-College Boards, Achievement Tests, and College Boards. The time had really come for serious consideration and determination of our future careers. Thirteen students met qualifications of the faculty for National Honor Society membership. Two scholars of the Class of ' 70 were finalists in the Foreign Ex- change Program, Margie Aldrich, and Leslie Finn. After an unbelievable winter, the Jun- iors welcomed spring with the annual Junior Prom. Members of the junior class and their escorts gathered on Friday, May 9 for this momentous occasion. Then came the end of a year crowded with work and play. The seniors graduated early in June, leaving us a taste of what it is like to be tops at N.H.S. The intrepid Class of the new decade looks forward to that feeling of seniority. Susan Dempsey [1361 Officers - Class of 1971 Left to Right: McQuillan, Donovan, Kennedy, Crook, Hartnett, Gallagher, Kelley Second Time Around In September 1968, the Class of 1971 re- turned as Sophomores to N.H.S. with non- chalant ease, proudly awar e of the fact that they were no longer the youngest class on the Hill. They were prepared to face the new and greater responsibilities and challenges which confronted them. The outcome of the election of class officers was, for the most part, the same as last year ' s. The exceptions were the election of Ellen Donovan as Secretary and Eileen Crook as Girl ' s A. A. Representa- tive. Those who were re-elected were: Paul Hartnett, President; Steve Kennedy, Vice-President; Joyce Gallagher, Girls ' Treasurer; Cameron Kelly, Boys ' Treas- urer; and Patrick McQuillan, Boys ' A. A. Representative. The Sophomore Party, the first social event, was extremely successful. The theme was Purple Haze and the music was provided by the popular Backstreet Journal. It was held in the girls ' gym- nasium which was smashingly decorated by over one hundred Sophomore students. It was a very exciting and satisfying evening. Outstanding members of the Class were: Eileen Crook who was the only Sophomore selected to the varsity cheerleading squad; Paul Hartnett, who showed his tremendous athletic ability while competing on the varsity football and basketball teams; the football team was also well supported by sophomores Robert Dickerson, and Pat McQuillan, and the basketball team b} ' Joseph Porcello and Richard Soper. Philip Nolfi, John Clifford and Robert Thornton helped to carry the hockey team through another fantastically successful season. With the knowledge and experience gained during the first two years at Nor- wood Senior High, the distinguished Class of ' 71 is ready to return to the Hill next September as upperclassmen. Mary Lydon [137] fReShMen J Officers - Class of 1972 Seated: Flaherty, Tierney Standing: Hickey, Reese, Bacon, Anello, Parker An Enthusiastic Beginning On an early 1968 September day a group of boys and girls entered a new phase in their scholastic life; they were now freshmen at Norwood High. A year of pleasure and study was guaranteed for all the students. There were several major events which occurred early in the year. The most im- portant of the year was the election of the class officers. The outcome of the election was as follows: President, Ed Hickey; Vice President, Joe Annelo; Secre- tary, Gail Flaherty; Boys ' Treasurer, Louis Parker; Girls ' Treasurer, Karen Tierney; Boys ' A. A. Representative, Rickey Reese; and Girls ' A. A. Representative, Janice Bacon. Early in September we had a competi- tion for Cheerleaders among the freshmen girls, the choice to be made by the Varsity Cheerleaders. There were so many truly talented girls from our class who were au- ditioned that the final selection must have been a very difficult one for the judges. The select few who were chosen were: Captain, Joanne Thomas; Kathy Patsos; Beth Shea; Marie DeRoma; Lurinda Chin; Maria Roninelli; Laurie McConkey; Linda Jones; Mary McTernan and Paula Parise. In mid-October the start of the NHS 1968-1969 social season was opened with the Freshman Party which was held in the cafeteria. The entertainment was pro- vided by the group, The Strange Broom. The dance proved to be an outstanding success. Many freshmen participated in athletics. They were supported enthusiastically by the entire freshman class. Throughout the year we were told that our enthusiasm surpassed that of any other freshman class in a long time. Marlene S. O ' Donnell Class of 1972 :i42i 5Wii ■ .Z .: ' : I eabodi There used to be, and we hope there still is, a respect in America for the conscientious, careful craftsman, well-versed in the intricacies of his mode of livelihood. The immense benefits gained by labor unions for their constituents are unquestioned, but there is a growing tendency to ask for more and to give less. It is the fundamental reponsibility of the individual citizen to follow his own conscience and ambition as to his ulti- mate goals in life, and to place no restraints or obstacles in the paths of others seeking similar opportunities. Neither race, nor creed, nor color should stand in the way of any citizen seeking employment or a place to live. Our most cherished possession, the quality of hope, must be denied to no one.

Pea- body School aims to keep the alumni and the general public informed concerning the current students, staff, social events, and department activities at the school. Membership of the club consists of a group of interested students representing each of the five departments in the cur- riculum. There is also a reporter-at-large, whose assignment is general school news. Each reporter writes up the activities of his or her respective department. This news is then combined in a column, known as Peabody Personalities, and published periodically in The Norwood Messenger and other area newspapers. Reporters for 1968-69 were the follow- ing: Judith Souza, Beauty Culture Depart- ment; Barbara Tower, Arthur Mosgofian, and Michael Rubino, Food Service Depart- ment; Mary Corcoran, Practical Nursing Department; Beth Stack and Joan Gallag- her, Business Department; Susan Dzena- wagis and Mildred Luce, Fashion-Dress- making Department; and Nancy Heyn, reporter-at-large.

The fall Costume Party, a social get- together sponsored by the Student Coopera- tive with the cooperation and participation of the faculty and student body was a tremendous success. Operation Santa Claus is a school project whereby stu- dents remember the children and the elderly in hospitals, nursing homes, and state institutions.

However., they also provide an opportunity for a mediocre student to shine in an area not available in his daily curricula., and for an outstanding student to taste the non-academic life. The large enrollment in such activities proves youtKs willingness to accept responsibility and to fur- ther improve relations with each other on something other than a classroom basis. These activities enable each participant to involve himself with the various phases of non-academic life, and to concern himself with others outside his scholastic sphere. Memories are filled with things like this; the contributions we make to the school and the relationships which we establish with each other all serve to improve the reservoir of human love and consideration.

The Council ' s Executive Board consisted of Michele Eysie Chairman; Beth Wright, Charles McAuliffe, Barry Levine, Joan Kelley, Barbara Jansen, and David Boch. The Election Commission consisting of Ellen Kenney and John Ranalli, Chairmen; Kathleen Orme, Anne O ' Donnell, Fay Donovan, Robert Donovan, Edward Cough- lin, Ann Phalen, Andrew Malacaria, Marjorie Aldrich, Paul Donovan, Jean English, Ann Fox, and assisted by the officers and executive board of the Council, ably supervised and published the results of all school elections. The members of this commission earned and won faculty and student approval for their considerable work, efficiency, and honest procedures. Senior members of the council spent many hours planning for the annual dance which proved to be the biggest social and financial success in the history of the council. This year a combined Senior Auction and dance was held. Known as the S.A.D., members of the senior class were auctioned off to underclassmen. In turn [1681 the seniors were required to carry the books of underclassmen to classes and to attend the Sock Hop that night featur- ing the Filet of Soul. Under the direction of the Council over $300 was contributed to the Boston Globe Santa. The Council sent delegates to the Spring Convention of the South Eastern Massa- chusetts Division of Student Council, which was held in Brookline on April 12th. The Council also played an Exchange Day with members of the Needham Stu- dent Council. This exchange proved to be both worthwhile and informative. The annual Student-Faculty Basketball game with proceeds going to the Foreign Exchange Fund, which has always been a highlight of the year, was held in March. The Council hosted a reception in March for twenty foreign exchange students from surrounding towns. Members of the stu- dent body were invited to attend to take part and exchange ideas. The Council extends heartiest thanks and best wishes to Miss Mary Hubbard, Adviser, and to Mr. George Usevich, for their support and advice throughout the year.

Le Cercle Francais During the academic year 1968-69, le Cercle Francais enjoyed the enthusiastic membership of thirty-five girls governed and directed by Susan Nolan, President, Doreen Maloney, Vice-President, Margaret Bamber, Secretary, and Sheila O ' Toole, Treasurer. The faculty sponsors were Miss Yvette Gagnon and Miss Nancy Guy. The group went to Boston to see L ' Enfant et Le Vieillard at the Exeter Theater in November. The girls also en- joyed a French dinner at Chez Jean in Cambridge, and saw another French film at the Brattle Theater in Cambridge. The group had the opportunity of seeing numerous color slides taken by Miss Gag- non Vv ' hile she was studying in France. They also heard French records by such well known French singers as Charles Aznavons and Edith Piaf during activities periods. Also during activities periods, re- hearsals for three scenettes: C ' est la Guerre, Vive la Difference, and Un Peu Exagere, which were directed by Miss Gagnon. A French newspaper containing articles written by the club members and edited by Miss Guy was compiled and distributed in the French Department.

El Club Espanol The purpose of El Club Espanol is to explore different aspects of the life and customs in Spain and other Spanish speak- ing countries. It also gives members a chance to practice conversation outside the classroom and meet other students with a common interest. This year there are approximately twenty club members from all different levels of Spanish. The present officers are President Audrey Sail; Vice-President Deborah Bell; Secretary Earla Bayides and Treasurer Patricia Collins. The highlight of the first semester was a discussion of the Incas of Peru. It was enhanced by Mr. Reagon ' s presentation of beautiful slides of Machu Pichy, the lost City of the Incas. Mr. Reagon gained first hand knowledge of life in Peru through his work in the Peace Corps. During the holiday season the members of the club investigated the various cus- toms of Spanish speaking countries con- nected with the celebration of Christmas. This included listening to and singing Spanish Christmas Carols. In the second semester plans were made for a trip to the Spanish Center in Boston. In preparation for this the members made coloring books to distribute to the children of the Center. To climax the year the club went to a Mexican Restaurant for dinner.

[187] Hilltopper Editors Front: McQuillan, Wilson Rear: Fanning, Shay, Horsman, LeBlanc, O ' Toole The Hilltopper Has Done It Again After investigating the printing charges of all print shops within a twenty-mile radius of Norwood, the Hilltopper editors were forced to abandon their dreams of full-page color photographs, fifty-page daily editions, etc. Difficulties other than costs, also presented setbacks: (a) Lack of staff members at general meetings and an overabundance of same at yearbook pictures. (b) Memory-failure of one editor-in-chief resulting in loss of one printer. (c) Mysterious disappearances of sundry articles. (d) Communication breakdowns between editors and staff. (e) Sudden assignments of twenty-page term papers to editors on eve of pre- scheduled editors ' meetings. (f) Badly timed snowstorms. However, due to the patient efforts of Miss Clines, the faculty adviser, the timely assistance of Mr. Pearl of the printing de- partment, and the eleventh-hour tactics of the staff, the Hilltopper ' s appearance and content reached an encouraging high point. Also invaluable to the paper ' s success was Mark Wilson, Circulation and Typing editor, who counted the money, collected the typed articles and mailed out the bills (everyone agreed Mark was a Very Good Circulator). Dick Shay headed the pho- ;i88] tography department and did a marvelous job despite a faulty light-bulb attachment and unfavorable lighting conditions (Dick was also our Top Poster-Slogan Man). True to form, Patti Fanning directed her Literary Department with smooth effici- ency. Nancy Leblanc ' s talents were put to good use illustrating articles and draw- ing posters, and Lynn Horsman did a great job in her somewhat unusual posi- tion as the First Female Editor of the Sport Staff. Features Editor Chris McQuil- lan filled her position well, and her refusal to get particularly upset about anything was very useful in times of stress. News Editor Dorene Maloney had the difficult job of convincing her staff that news articles were fun to write and must be re- searched. And finally, Tara O ' Toole had the sometimes not-so-nice job (despite the rumors) of telling everyone else what to do. (She loved it). The seniors of the 68-69 Hilltopper leave all future staffs with the hope that some things we did with the paper are worth doing again, and the wish that perhaps . . . next year ' s Hilltopper won ' t be completely new.

Standing: Forbes, Shay, Immonen, Santoro, Shagoury, Thing. Trig Tractions The Norwood High Math Team of 1968- 1969 was not exactly tops in the sWte, but it was by far not the worst either. The loss of one former senior, naraely Dana Craig, Class of 1968, created a big void and Miss Tolini was forced to recruit from her freshman classes to add to her future prospects. Through the first three meets of the Greater Boston Math League, freshmen Steve Shagoury, Jean Wisgirda, and Bob Thing turned in respectable jobs, although having to cope with sophomore and junior math more than half of the time. Return- ing juniors Steve Yankum and Jay Im- monen proved to be valuable mainstays in the middle divisions of Geometry and Algebra II. John Santoro, a new senior on the staff, had to overcome a few problems, but he scored adequately in the second and third meets. Returning senior anchormen Dick Shay and Tom Lydon were the most dependable point-getters, especially in the more difficult Algebra II and Trig, and the underclassmen will have their big shoes to fill next year. Briefly, the Math Team competes in four meets a year at different league schools, and out of five contesting mem- bers, three take part in each of five events, Arithmetic, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II and Math IV, plus the team question, on which all five work together. There are three problems in each event, worth one, two, and three points, so the maxi- mum any student can receive is 18 points. The team question is worth 10 points, in two-parts. This is the set-up. [1921 Election Commission Row I: O ' Donnell, English, Orme, Ranalli, Kenney, Phalen, Wright. Row II: J. Kelley, D. Kelley, Aldrich, Eysie, Fox, Donovan, Jansen.

The Ballot Box Officials The Election Commission consists of the students who are elected from the Sopho- more, Junior and Senior members of the Student Council. Officers of the council work with the commission when help is needed. The function of the group is to super- vise all school elections, such as: Election of officers for four classes, election of Stu- dent Council officers, election of yearbook editors, and the election of representatives for Student Government Day. It sets dates, receives nominations, supervises the ballot- ing and counting of all votes which have been cast, and publishes the results of all elections on the bulletin boards. It assumes responsibility for efficient and honest elec- tions. The Co-Chairmen of this year ' s commis- sion were Ellen Kenney and John Ranalli. Other members were Robert Donovan, Cathleen Orme, Fay Donovan, Ann Phalen, Andrew Malacaria, Anne O ' Don- nell, Jean English, Marjorie Aldrich, Paul Donovan, Anne Fox, and Edward Coughlin. The Election Commission is a very im- portant part of school life and its members earn and win faculty and student approval for their efforts. 193] Ostrom Patsos Crook Columbo Manfro Smith KING SEMI PHILIP FORMAL February 20, 1969 SCIENCE FAIR March 27, 1969 WATER POLUn I 2 _ ' ' ■•? j tSl and DOLLS tyortd T Getting a piece of the action ' ' is a commonplace axiomatic shibboleth of the present moment in young circles. We might add that in the ever-changing kaleidoscope of today ' s society, no one stands a chance who only observes the action from the sidelines. It is actual participation that brings the fullest satisfaction and most enduring rewards., whether we are speaking of games involving physical prowess and expertise, or whether we are discussing involvement in current issues such as youth ' s discontent, labor power, war, black de- mands, or the educational system. The goal in sports is primarily to win, not for personal satisfaction, but for the glory of one ' s Alma Mater. The goal in life should also be to win, that is to achieve fulfillment of one ' s innermost desires, but again not for just personal satis- faction and not at the expense of others, but so that we can make the best contribution of which we are capable to making this a better world in which to live.

We Had Our Ups and Downs After showing great promise in pre- season scrimmages, the Norwood Mustangs lost a hard-fought game to a strong Welles- ley team, 14-8. An injury to starting half- back Steve Fischer hurt the Norwood of- fense, which never really got untracked until the end of the season. Sophomore Bobby Dickinson scored the home touch- down for the Mustangs on a quarterback keeper with Gugliotta going over for the conversion. A week later, the Mustangs took to the road only to suffer another defeat at the hands of Braintree, 28-2. Long gainers and ineffective offense hurt Norwood in this one. The only score was on a safety by Dyke and Taylor. The next game was at home against Framingham South. With two scores by Gugliotta and one each hj Freytag and Taylor the Mustangs notched their first win 28-14. The Norwood de- fense really sparkled setting up three out of the four touchdowns on outstanding plays. Stalwarts in Norwood ' s front wall were Mogan, O ' Connell, Dyke and P. Donovan. In the secondary, Gugliotta and Taylor were immense. The mud-soaked field in Natick provided a rather dismal setting for the first Norwood win at Natick in 25 years. The spirited Mustangs pulled it out 2-0 on a safety by Bill Freytag. This game was one of the high points of the season. Against Needham it was just too much Gatto as the Mustangs lost 23-6. The lone Norwood touchdown was scored [2081 by Dyke on a recovered fumble. In the next game, a fired-up Walpole eleven sank Norwood 26-8. Gugliotta ' s third period score was no match for the three Walpole touchdowns in the first half. The low point of the season came when the Mus- tangs were blanked by Milton 20-0. It was a poor all-around effort. The Mustangs bounced back, however, with a stunning upset of Framingham North 14-6. The offense finally clicked with 253 total yards. Fischer bulled over from the six before Gugliotta hit Parker with a 12 yard TD pass for the winning points. Senior Dave Mogan, Fred O ' Con- nell, Steve Fischer, and Tom Gugliotta along with Juniors Dyke, Puzin, Denzer, and Thomas were outstanding in this great effort. The cold, dark day and the frozen field were a prelude to a sad day for Norwood on Thanksgiving. Again the Mustang of- fense sputtered with the only bright spots the touchdown pass from Gugliotta to Parker and a 45 yard run by Steve Fischer. The loss dropped Norwood to eighth place with a 3-6 record. Steady players throughout the year were Seniors Tom Gugliotta, Captain Dave Mogan, Fred O ' Comiell, Tora Taylor, Bob Donovan and Steve Fischer; Juniors Joe Puzin, Barry Dyke, Paul Hartnett. The class of 1969 wishes the Mustangs good luck next year. Steve Fischer ■ 4-sS Varsity Football Standing: Coach Bethoney, Hopkins, P.

They Came Battling Back Led by co-captains Tom Gugliotta and Walt Litchfield, the Mustangs soared to victory in their first league contest against Natick, 60-52. Seniors Norm Sacco and John Eagan displayed great board control. Norwood then suffered two damaging losses at the hands of league powers Fram- ingham South and Braintree. They next lost a tough game to Milton, 63-62. Senior Dan MacQuaid led Norwood scorers in each of the three losses. The Mustangs rebounded against Wal- pole for a fine 59-41 victory. This was fol- lowed by a loss to league leaders Welles- ley, 51-38. A loss to Framingham North was fol- lowed by an overwhelming victory over arch-rival Dedham, 73-50. Co-captain Walt Litchfield was superb as he fired in 17 points. The Nolet men journeyed to Needham where they dropped a 66-61 decision. This knocked the Mustangs from Tech Tourney contention and cast them in the role of spoilers. A tense 47-45 win over Natick was followed by losses to Framingham South and Braintree. Co-captain Tom Gugliotta sparkled in the Natick triumph, while senior Norm Sacco did an outstanding job. The Mustangs avenged an earlier loss to Milton by defeating the Whiz Eads 60-47. Senior Dan MacQuaid led all scor- ers with 20 points, while Clyde McCray followed with 12. Then, in the most exciting game of the year, the Noletmen defeated Walpole 79- 72 in overtime. The Mustangs scored their third con- secutive victory by dumping Framingham North 66-54. Clyde McCray and John Eagan had 15 and 14 points in the win. Norwood then dropped a 62-49 decision to Needham, but bounced back with a big 74-56 victory over Dedham. In the season ' s final game, the Nolet- men were defeated by a much larger Wellesley squad, 70-63. Seniors Clyde Mc- Cray and John Eagan played superbly. Throughout the season the hoopsters received strong bench support from Joe Porcello, John Eagan, Dick Laffey, Mark Wilson, Rick Soper, Tom Wysocki, Gino Romanelli, Dave Thomas, and Vin Mayo.

Bay State Champions For the second year in a row, the NHS Wrestling team has captured the Bay State League Championship. Their 11-0 record indicates the great strength of this team as they had to con- tend with other strong teams like Brain- tree, Wellesley, Needham, and Framing- ham North. The team got started off on the right track as they had no trouble at all de- feating Milton 45-1 1. From there, they went on to defeat Wey- mouth 35-17, Needham 37-22, Stoughton 62-0, Framingham North 45-14, Scituate 50-6, and Wellesley 27-23. Then came Braintree, and none of the ' many fans who were there will ever forget Senior Dave Mogan ' s great performance which brought the match home. With Braintree ahead 23-22 and only Dave ' s match left, which is the heavyweight division, the pressure was really on him. Dave came through, defeating his opponent 4-1 and the whole gym was bedlam. The rest of their schedule was an easy one; they went on to defeat Natick 52-6, Dedham 54-7, and Walpole 49-9. They went on to the regionals, which were held in Natick this year, and placed second behind an inspired Weymouth team. Graduating seniors Paul Piccirilli who came in first in the regionals, Dave Mogan, Bill Freytag, Bob Donovan and Chris Col- lins will be sorely missed. Returning next year will be regional champs Bob Richmond and Paul Donovan, along with Phil Todd, Paul Carr, Jack Hopkins, Joe Puzin, John Reynolds, Tom Desisto, John Moynihan, Mike Piccirilli, and ' Gary Sheehan, who all wrestled as Varsity this year.

Summit Contenders to the Last Goal The 1969 edition of the Norwood High Varsity Hockey Team continued to fol- low the tradition of excellence in the School on the Hill ' s favorite athletic past- time, as coach Don Wheeler and assistant Jim Gormle} ' piloted the team to a close second place finish behind powerhouse Needham and an outstanding 15-3 record in the tough Bay State League this season. The Mustangs couldn ' t have made it more exciting, as with a nine game win- ning streak, our icemen carried the league championship battle with Needham down to the final games of the season, and entered the Eastern Mass. Hockey Tourna- ment with both a fine record, and high hopes of advancing to Boston Garden ice for the fifth straight year. Senior co-captains Dick Donovan and John Ranalli backboned the club all season long with their experienced play and spirit, while tricky Dick scored 55 points enroute to being named all-scholastic center and in finishing second behind Needham ' s Ftorek in state scoring. Netminder Arty Harris filled quite ade- quately the gap left by all-scholastic goalie Neil Higgins, and proved to all that he could play with the league ' s be st and hold his own in any situation. Senior forwards Gerry McTernan, Tom Taylor, and defenseman Gary Sortevik anchored the rest of the team with stand- out performances like McTernan ' s six-goal output against Brain Iree, Sortevik ' s solid body-checking, and Taylor ' s 44 points right behind Donovan in total scoring. Although many thought this might be a rebuilding season .for Norwood, the un- expected contributions of several under- classmen, including freshman Pete Brown, sophomores Bob Thornton and Phil Nolfi, and juniors Guy Marzullo, Dan Feeney, Mark O ' Connell. Pete Tamulionas, Ed Letts, Mark Flaherty, and goalie Frank Eppich, have given the team great promise for several years to come. Despite the 3-2 fourth overtime loss to Marblehead in the tourney, which we shouldn ' t mention, our boys gave 101% at all times and produced a fantastic sea- son that few thought possible. For this reason alone, they ' ll always be our No. 1 team. I 12361 f ' l m ' R« Love All for Coach Malvinni Standing: Nolan, Altman, Coach Malvinni, Immonen. Kneeling: DeCosta, LeBlanc.

We wish to take this opportunity to thank the sponsors and advertisers who have helped finance this yearbook. At the same time, we wish to suggest to our fellow classmates and to all our friends who read this book that they patronize the stores listed in our advertising. Yearbook advertising may reach a more limited audience than newspaper advertising, but it is much more per- manent and much more handsomely displayed, and it will be read through the years by all of us who cherish this souvenir of happy high school days.
