BROTHER DENNIS, S.C., B.A. A man needing no introduction, Brother Dennis was the motive force of Notre Dame High School for the first three years. He was vice principal, a member ol the school board, and always an active recruiter both for the school and the community. His seal for the welfare of each and every young Crusader will remain unparalleled in the history of our school. Although a specialized teacher of Latin and foreign languages, he held his own in any other high school subject, whether it be religion, math, speech or dramalics. He has left, as it were, a part of himself here in the Alma Mater Song and in the school emblem, both creations ol his prolific mind. Can we ever forge! such an imposing personality? BROTHER EUGENE, SC.. MA. Piety, a great spirit of faith, and nnllagging devotion to our school beat characterize Brother Eugene. Brother was one of the varlicat ro- cruitera. After having spent a year of apt-uializeil study in Rome, he joined the teaching staff in the fall of '53. Aa vice principal, junior class advisor, and director of the Leaguf- of the Sacred Heart, he exerted a great inlluvm-e over the entire student body. A perfct-liunisl at heart, he found many a way ui he-tte-ring the school organism. An English scholar himself, hr- was able to give to each uf his English sliuherits an immediate preparation for 1-ull:-gn. Brother Eugene was called upon in 1955 tu assunu' the direction of is sevondnry school at St. Colum- ban's, England. He is 1-quul tn the tasks at hand. The Crusade-ra arul the faculty int-mhcrs have lost in him a sonrvt- ul' inspiration and encouragement. , VH., -V . 7 1.-- 1, .

Divine Providence has given Her to us not only as the inspira- tion for our school days here, but as our secure hope for the future. Our world can be restored to Christ through her intercession. Evil, today as always, shall be crushed by her heel. Christian leaders today are staunchly devoted to her. Mary, teach us to live the truths Christ taught, to center our lives in Him. Help us to be strong influences for good in a society which needs Christians, salt of the earth. 11 ',l ,Lz 1.1. f, 'Q 4 ' ' - T -Q I I 2 F f 5 1 it I LJ ' T L, ' 1 ii 1 f - I I 'N X , --- '..,....-- '- ' I Y Q .W , 34.1 , , ' f-.1.

Who can measure the merits of his life, and recount the good done to youth in fifty years of classroom apostolate? As dean of the faculty and Latin teacher. he has shown himself a very competent guide for his students in the ancient and classical realms of the Caesars. the Ciceros. and the Virgils.

To help obviate to these and other needs the Notre Dame Forensic Association was founded in 1954 by Brother Reginald. Through painstaking effort and research the debaters have reached a better un- derstanding of socio-political truth and developed the ability to impart it with light and power. To insure the prosperity of debating at the school, the Association is divided into the Freshman, Junior Varsity, and Senior groups. Already our school orators have acquired name and fame in their de- bates to places as distant as Portland, Maine, and Pawtucket, R.

The 50 young foothallers were received hy a- coaching crew of Frank Cioffi. John Brasili. Ernie Nole. and Herh Nordman. The football schedule called for five games. The Crusaders won three and lost two. Their losses were to Sacred Heart of Andover. Mass.. and to Gardner High. The scores were 1-1---13 and 3-L-6. Victories were over Mount. Nashua and St. Bernardis. The winning totals were 44--14. 19-13. and 121-0. ln the Mount game Dick Dandini tallied no less than fin- times on his patented end runs. Hon 1,3llltlllILl'llX also performed well. The first varsity foothall campaign was initiated with 56 candidates. Games were scheduled against powerful elevens. The Crusaders' first loss was on the road tq a Shirley lndustrial School outfit. At home they Were downed hy Ayer High. 39-0. At Holden the Terriers blanked the sophomores 33-0. The home forces also tasted defeat against Westlmtmrci and West- ford. The scores were 35-13 and 14-0. The third foothall season opened with 68 candidates. The season's dehut was against St. Patricks of Water- town as we bowed 32-7 in a torrid heat. At home against the Wacrltusett Mountaineers. the Crusaders lost their second game and the services of Dick Dan- dini who fractured his leg.

Pros- perity was not for long, unfortunately. as Burling- ton won a season closing game, 141--0. Tom Lomaglio and John Peralta, two great performers, were elected to the Catholic Free Press All-Star Eleven on the first and second teams. Dick Dandini was named its athlete of the week. In 1955, the first full varsity season attracted 67 re- cruits including our six four-year 1nen: Ron Lamou- reux, John Peralta, Dick Dandini, Bill Brodeur, Tom Lomaglio, and Chico Spinelli. We lost a Bernardian Bowl opener to St. Clementls of Somerville due to ex- cessive fumbling. Dandini scored our lone tally in the 13-7 game. Next, the gridders held a heavily-favored Fitchburg High team to a sole touchdown and a safety in their first meeting at Crocker Field before 2500 fans. The Sentinel praised Peralta and Spinelli for a moral victory over the Red and Cray. Despite good showings they also lost to Northbridge and to St. Columbkille's. Sweeping reverses and a sharp pass attack were the causes of those two Crusader down- falls. In the remaining four games the Crusader goal line was to be crossed but once more. They played Wachusett Regional to a 6-6 tie as a costly penalty brought the game's end with our ball on the enen1y's six-inch line.

Then Ayer High was crushed 19-0 with Lamoureux and Duval scor- ing all three touchdowns. ln the season's finale the Blue and White boys rocked the sports world with a stunning upset win over their Catholic city rivals St. Bernardis T-0. A recovered fumble by end Bob Cormier on the Bernardians, five allowed Brodeur to score on the ensuing play. The win gave the Notre Dame Team the Catholic city title and the Father Curran Memorial Trophy which was presented at a banquet by the Knights of Columbus. The school also received part possession of the Elliot Trophy in tieing for the city championship. John Peralta and Dick Dandini were named to the Catholic Free Press All-Star Eleven. The Freshman ,football squad coached by Ernie Nole were unbeaten except for a Leominster Junior High victory and tie with the Bed and Cray freshmen. Tremendous promise was shown by Gerry NChet and Jetw Chester, and George Fischer as a line plunger. On the line Donald Dame, John Au- buchon, and Tom McHugh played great ball.

The Blue and White boys lost their opener to the Mount Saint Charles Freshman team by a 55-fl-U score. Also losing their next three, they finally won against St. Mary's of Milford squad. The hoopsters won two of their next three before becoming red hot and turning in ten victor- ies in their next twelve starts. The Crusaders split their series with the Bernardians. They also won two of their last four starts in competing with Cen- tral Catholic of Lawrence and St. 1ohn's of Wor- cester. All told the cagers won 15 and lost 9 for an impressive record. Craig Corliss and Lou Cormier were consistent high scorers. In tournament play the hoopsters were eliminated in the Bay State Small School Tourney. vcB7 The sophomore season was launched without the services of Craig Corliss sidelined with rheumatic fever.

They were defeated in the first round by Cole Trade of Southhridge. 1n 1954, Matthias Mucho Pappas took over the coaching duties for the Crusaders. The schedule called for games against the Catholic League of Worcester in Division 1 and against North Worces- ter County teams. The Blue and White failed to de- feat one Worcester team but afforded strong com- petition to area teams. They won a season opener in their own gym by downing Lunenburg. 59-47. They lost two nip-and-tuck games to the Bernar- dians by scores of 54-49 and 47-45. Craig Corliss. the diminutive but speedy guard. led the city scorers with over 400 points. He amazed friends and foes with dribbles a la Couzu and a phe- nomenal shooting eye operating on glittering array of hook and jump shots. 1n tourney play. the local lads advanced to the second round in the Bay State Tournament when they downed Malboro.

St. Stephens Nevertheless the Crusaders lost no time in stamping themselves as the best North Wor- cester County team as it racked off seven straight victories against area competition. including vic- tories oy er Fitchburg and St. Rernards Then with the city and North Wforcester County titles almost assured. tragedy struck. Plagued with injuries and listless play the local hoopsters suffered a complete reversal of form which saw their spirited game fall off woefully. As a result they reeled off seven consecutive defeats losing among these to Fitch- burg. St. Bernardis and Athol High in return en- gagements. Thus the coveted titles were claimed bv the Red and Gray cagers whose only county blemish was our thrilling game-ending 51-48 win on their home floor before a sellout crowd of 1200. The Crusaders thus ended the season with an ll-13 record. Craig Corliss retained his city scoring champion- ship with -1-l2 points. He also set a new Wvorcester moderator. L. Cormier. Keating. Benoit. Blanchctte, iN, Cormier Kneeling: Lussier, manager. Lf-clair. Stewart, Uandini. Corliss. County record with 47 points in the second Cru- sader-Cardner game in which the locals scored Ui points. Great performances were also given by Warren Baker with his drives and nifty' lay ups. and by Greg Tessier and Billy Brodeur with their rebounding and good court game. The greatest credit goes to Coach Mucho Pappas whose patient hand and court know-how guided the team during the season. Credit is also due those unsung reserves whose timely relieving saved many a game. These are Norm Cormier. Bob Keating. Doug Han- nula. Vic Blanchette. Dick Dandini. George LeClair. Don Benoit, and Clayton Cardinal. The Junior varsity cagers. fast and sharpshoot- ing, amassed a record of l2 wins and 10 losses. Great performances were given by joe Tagg. John Karl-cutt. Alan Stewart, Ronald Sibley. Richard Trudel, Charlie Sicard. The freshmen hoopsters coached by Don Boud- reau, senior, lost but four games. two of which they later avenged. Victims included St. Bernard's. Fitchburg. Nashua Junior High. x E I 1 wg S2 id 1955-56AStanding, left to right: Coach Pappas. Sihlr-y. MvCrath.
