L'Etoile, star of the morn', has guided us from our first days as High School students. We Wish our Yearbook to be an expression of deep and sincere gratitude:- gratitude to our dear Sister Superior to Whom this year's publication of l'Etoile is dedicated, gratitude to our teachers for patience, both untiring and admirable, for solicitude so helpful, gratitude to one another for making this year our happiest as a class with a homey'l atmosphere, and last but far from least, gratitude to our Alma Mater, for memoirs that will al- ways Warm the hearts of each and everyone of us, Seniors of '53. As you, dear reader, Whoever you may be, turn the pages of this volume, you Will find embedded there, the reason Why leaving our dear Alma Mater creates such an emptiness in our hearts. Realize for one moment what We are leaving . . , a devoted administration, true friends, and a spirit that has been part of us through our High School career. We, Graduates of '53, sincerely regard this volume as a climax and finale of our lives as High School students. In it we have gathered all the souvenirs and reminiscences which we will cherish and regard highly in the album of our prized possessions because these represent truly the best years of our lives.

Ange de la belle et vigoureuse Eglise de Worcester, avec le zele cele- bre dans les Saints Livres et qui plait a Dieu. vous operez sur les destinees de votre diocese, vous veillez sur la securite et le bien de chacune des ames a vous con- fiees de par votre mission apostolique. Pasteur et Pere, vous voulez garder vos enfants hors des atteintes du malheur, loin des sentiers battus de la mediocrite. Or, parmi les perils qui guettent la generation actuelle, il en est un terrible de consequence: le dan- ger de SAVOIR MAL! Vous Vapprehendez ce peril, Excellence, et vous avez compris qu'il faut procurer a la jeunesse un premier instrument de connaissance, c'est-a-dire, une parfaite acquisition de sa langue maternelle, pour preparer les luttes a venir, et conserver Pheritage des aieux. En l'occurence, pour les Franco-Americains, une etude serieuse de la langue s'imposaitg vu que ici comme ailleurs tout corps est attire vers la terre par sa pesanteurf' vous nous avez demande de reagir dans le sens d'un effort vers le perfectionnement de notre francais, cet outil naturel d'une culture plus poussee. Et vous servez vous-meme de modele, car vous vous payez le luxe de parler plusieurs langues. La jeunesse etudiante de 1953 n'oubliera jamais le geste bienveillant et spontane qui vous a amene a Southbridge pour presider a la benedictio-n des classes nouvelles. D'un esprit largement ouvert - et qui suit les impulsions d'un coeur embrase de charite pour tout un peuple, vous concevez des projets superbes en vue de l'education superieure de la jeunesse que vous aimez tant et dont vous souhaitez l'ascension complete et certaine, dans tous les domaines. Franchement, l'element franco-americain de votre diocese vous devra de porter plus haut la fidelite a ses origines spirituelles. Et notre terre d'Amerique sera glorifiee par les dicts et gestes des eveques de la sainte Eglise Romaine - ces hommes guides par l'Esprit, qui ont la veritable intelligence des races diverses formant la grande et forte nation americaine. Vivez longtemps, Excellence, portant courageusement et noblement la houlette du Pasteur que le Ciel a deposee entre vos mains puissantes et secourables! C'est le souhait reconnaissant des jeunes gradues de 1953 at l'Eco1e Superieure Notre-Dame de Southbridge - souhait qu'ils scellent d'une priere fervente: Stet Et Pascat In Fortitudine Tua, Domine, In Sublimitate Nominis Tui REVERENDE SOEUR STE-ANNE, A.S.V Zaddcace En reconnaissance du travail incessant deploye, ici, a Notre-Dame de Southbridge, pendant les six annees de votre feconde administration, nous vous dedions, veneree et bien chere Soeur Superieure, notre Album-Souve- nir, L'Etoile. Nous garderons douce rnemoire des ceremonies organisees en l'hon- neur du Sacre-Coeur et de la Tres Sainte Vierge, des neuvaines mariales mensuelles pour le recrutement des vocations sacerdotales et religieuses. Les membres du Glee Club n'oublieront jamais qu'ils doivent a votre ze-le inlassable le succes retentissant de leur recent concert. Et que dire des recompenses speciales donnees, afin d'encourager 1'etude de notre belle langue francaise! Tous vos bienfaits - il serait trop long de les enumerer - sont inscrits dans nos coeurs et appellent sur vous, veneree Soeur Superieure, les meil- leures benedictions du ciel. Claire Robert lln Memoriam :gifts 'Qc' ii' 453' REV. SOEUR ST-JEAN-BAPTISTE-DE-LA-SALLE Soeur St-Jean-Baptiste-de-la-Salle n'est plus. Elle nous a quittes l'autre jour, sans bruit, tout doucement, comme elle avait vecu. Venue a l'ecole Notre-Dame de Southbridge des 1903, elle allait initier aux etudes primaires sa troisieme generation d'enfants lorsqulelle se retira de l'en- seignement, a l'ete de 1946 .... Done, il y a six ans, Soeur St-Jean-Baptiste fut mise a sa retraite, continuant toujours de vaquer a ses devoirs de sacristineg fonctions qu'elle avait assumees des son arrivee a Southbridge . . . Elle savait bien qu'au service des saints autels on est plus pres de Celui qui fortifie. Aussi fut-elle toujours dans le 'clirnat' propice at l'epa- nouissernent des grandes vertus. Sa personne etait comme saturee de cette atmosphere de predilection. Bien plus, elle la faisait rayonner autour d'elle et la communiquait ei son entourage. On ne l'a jamais vue, par exemple, sans son sourire. Ce sourire calme et vainqueur qui n'etait pas un masque mais qui avait plutot son point de depart dans les profondeurs de son arne . . . Son influence sur la plupart de ses eleves fut grande et durable. Temoin, ces grands enfants qui, devenus peres et meres de familles, ne ces- saient de profiter de ses conseils et de ses encouragernents. Rien d'etonnant alors que l'eglise Notre-Dame se soit remplie a deborder, le jour des fu- nerailles . . . Les restes rnortels de Soeur St-Jean-Baptiste ont ete inhurnes au cimetiere des Soeurs de l'Assomption de la Sainte Vierge, a Nicolet. Tout est tres bien ainsi. Apres avoir lie sa vie a la Nouvelle-Angleterre, elle rat- tache sa mort a la Nouvelle-France. Personne ne devrait etre jaloux. Si nous avons eu la meilleure part, c'est probablement parce que nous, les Franco-Arnericains, nous avions plus besoin d'elle que les Canadiens fran- cais et qu'e1le eut pitie de nous.

LUCIER REV. RAYMOND J. PAGE REV. EDGAR A. PELLETIER Um amtea Many a pleasant picture flashes upon the screen of memory as we prepare to leave dear Notre Dame after four years of education and forma- tion. A deep flow of gratitude issues from our hearts as departing Seniors, as students, as friends, and as spiritual children. Under each and every one of these titles we could find a special way to thank you, dear Curates. As Seniors: we will always cherish the memories of all that you have done for us in your own little way through those four years - things to which we paid little attention at the time. As students: for the interest you have taken in our education and for the interest shown to us while we were grop- ing for our future vocation, we thank you. As friends: for the considerable amount of time and thought spent to make us clean-living and fun-loving men and women, we convey our gratitude. In these years habits were formed and it was your guidance, through friendship, that assured them the quality of good. As spiritual children: for the advice and counsel given us through our difficult years of adolescence and maturation and for the pa- tience shown us While struggling through these years, again we thank you. Truly we can thank you for making us spiritual children of our Almighty Father. There are innumerable instances and countless actions for which we could thank you individually. Father Lucier, your interest in the activities of the Biology class, encouraged the class to show a greater appreciation of that science. The members of the Sodality of the Children of Mary will not soon forget those words of advice which you gave them as their Chaplain. Every person who enjoys sports at Notre Dame has particularly to thank you, Father Pelletier. Though years may pass, every time we read or hear anything pertaining to the sports program at our Alma Mater, the thought of you and of your initiative will always be in the back of our minds as the Father of Sports at Notre Dame. L'Etoi1e would not be, if it were not for your interest in us, Father Page. The many hours of planning which you have so generously granted were appreciated and welcomed. L'Etoile is a tribute to you, Father, a tribute which in our hearts will never fade. This volume is priceless in dear memories, and the fact that it is a reality is due to your encouragement and guidance as Moderator. Yes, dear Curates, you are friends, advisors, and guardians but we must never forget that primarily, you are priests, instruments of God. It is by your consecrated hands that we receive our Lord in Holy Communion, that we are absolved of our sins in the confessional, and thus brought closer to God - and for this especially, we will be eternally grateful.

Douze annees se sont ecoulees depuis le jour ou nos bons parents conscients de leur responsabilite et soucieux de nous favoriser d'une educa- tion et d'une instruction ill la fois Chretiennes et soignees, nous confiaient 21 vous, religieuses de l'Assomption de la Sainte-Vierge.

Votre compre- hension de la jeunesse a fait que nous allions a vous dans tous nos problemes et toujours votre habilete, enrichie d'une sympathie profonde, savait trouver 1'e-ncourageante solution. Qu'i1 nous soit permis, cheres et bonnes Maitresses, de vous exprirner, a cette heure solennelle du depart, notre profonde et durable reconnaissance! Sans doute, nos etudes secondaires sont termineesg mais ce qui de- meurera eternellement en nous, c'est Fimpression si Vive de foi, de vertu et de fidelite au devoir que nous avons regue, ici, a Notre-Dame.

Jamais vous nous avez refuse quelque chose, venere Pere. Ne croyez pas que nous oublierons aussitot toutes ces demonstrations bienveillantes. Plus tard, nous y penserons a ces jours rememoratifs, et vos avis nous re- viendront, un par un.

What a wonderful feeling we had as we all entered the imposing portals of Notre Dame High School for another scholastic year. We regret to say that we lost two girls in our Junior year. Miss Irene Allard left us at the beginning of the year. Miss Evelyn Bourgeois left us to join the Holy Sister- hood. Good luck to both of you and we ex- tend our sincere Wishes for happiness to you, Evelyn, in your new field of life. God bless you. - But, who's this newcomer? Yes, Nor- mand J albert is now a member of our Junior Class and completes our little trinity of boys. May you reflect a bit of the Blessed Trinity, Normand, Ray Desrosiers, and Dan Yvon. Those chosen to regulate the laws in our Class were: Raymond Desrosiers as mighty President, Constance Langlois as capable Vice-President, Laura Bachand as sophisti- cated Secretary, and Sylvia Beaudry as de- sirous Treasurer. Those appointed to the Social Committee were veterans from last year, namely: Jean- nine Blanchet, Constance Langlois, Joan Pa- quin, and Laura Bachand. The committee has done Wonders, contributing to the high renown of the Notre Dame dances and social events. The rest of the members in our Class were wonderful in that their spirit never failed whenever co-operation was asked of them. Talking about spirit! Did you all notice the colossal spirit that shone from the boys in our Junior Class? We are very proud to say that two boys from our little trinity are members of the varsity team: Sure-Shot Dan Yvon, and Tricky Boy Ray Desrosiers. Dan and Ray have a promising future ahead if they take advantage of-, But, boys, don't forget, the girls are forming a team that's promising also. Watch out! I Two spectacular events have occurred in the delirious month of March: the receiving of our Alma Mater ring and the successful concert. I wish I could forsee the future in order to tell you about our preparation for the Senior Prom and the delightful welcome of the Junior-Senior Banquet. And now for the denouement of our Class History. The key to this door of joy and friendship is composed of Nuns, Priests, and God. These wonderful helpers of God are the ones to be thanked for everything and so we say THANK YOU,', diligent Sisters. Honorable mention goes to our inspiring home-room teach, Sister Marie-de-la-Repara- tion. And our gratitude to you, too, remark- ably tireless Priests of the parish and our be- loved Monseigneur J.

Safeiamafze 66444 Qfdazfazq As we, the Sophomores of Notre Dame High School, look back we remember Sep- tember 4, 1952. That day marked many big events. No more shall we be called Lowly Freshmen but we enter our Alma Mater as full-fledged Sophomores . Our one dread is the dividing of our class because of courses. From 28 pupils, 18 chose classical and 10 commercial. We elected the following Class officers: Bernard Robert, President, Claudette Ouel- lette, Vice-President, Roland Boisvert, Treas- urer, Madeleine Cournoyer, Secretary, Joyce Cormier, Librarian. Donald St. Jean, Chair- man, Roland Boisvert, Pauline Courtemanche, Claudette Ouellette are named to the Social Committee. November 16, 1952: The class today proudly congratulated Marie Haling and Donald St. Jean who so magnificently represented us in the Bishop Wright Declamation Contest. Marie Won top honors in the semi-finals for the Freshman- Sophomore division. And Donald does by no means shame us. December 12, 1952: Tonight our boys face Wells High in the first basketball game of the season. Our class proudly boasts of several top stars. Vic- tory is not ours but we are nevertheless mighty proud of the wonderful spirit the team has shown. January 6, 1953: Oh, Roland, now what have you gone and done? Nine fingers do little good, it's ten we need. Next time you decide to break a finger, please wait 'till after basketball season. Again congratulations! This time to the commercial students for the excellent results in the O. G. A. contest. Leonard Lafleche re- ceives a special pin for the bookkeeping and shorthand while everyone else has a certifi- cate of merit. February 9, 1953: This is a day for the books. Dissection! The great biologists of 1952-1953 today dis- sected a worm for the first time. To the boys' great astonishment the girls not only enjoyed it but were eager for the next period in the lab. And now our second scholastic year at Notre Dame is nearing sunset. How we dread seeing it pass for it was made so very pleasant by the hard work of our pastor, curates, and teachers. Our one consolation, however, is that two years are still ahead of us. Mother Mary, please continue to guide us through these, the happiest years of our lives. Claudette Ouellette, '55.

One never saw 44 happier faces in any group on that memorable day! Finally began the longed-for year. We were amazed at the amicable atmosphere in our school. Daily work and play have en- abled us to see Notre Dame High pupils as they really are: kind, generous, brimming over with personality and friendliness. Then dawned the big day awaited by everybody except, of course, us Freshmen. Initiation! ! ! Those Seniors surely have the ability to think up clever stunts. Imagine, we girls had to wear boots, raincoats, no make- up whatsoever and teabags for earrings, while the boys had to put on turbans, aprons and lipstick . . . We all had to carry our books in a pail and hold an umbrella open. The Seniors obliged us to bow to them and the Juniors burdened us with their books. The evening program opened with a scavenger hunt which paved the Way for a jolly time. Robert Arsenault had to eat an orange, peel and all. Baby Brousseau took a cakewalk with a squashed tomato in his shoe. Beatrice Bernard became rich by successfully blowing away enough face powder to obtain a nickel that was at the bottom of a plate. After a tasty snack, Leo Boucher and Diane Phoenix were chosen king and queen of the dance held that night. Before we knew it, every- one was waltzing until 11, when the clock struck to end a mirthful day. After the frolic of Freshman Week, came the serious business of selecting our class officers. We chose as President, charming Diane Phoenix, Vice-President, sedate Rich- ard Gregoireg a business-like Treasurer, Rob- ert Proulxg and skillful Charlotte Bourbeau as Secretary. Sister Louis-Hector and Sister Bernadette-Marie were our devoted teachers. Both tried to help us live up to our well- chosen class motto, Res Non Verbaf' On February 17, we celebrated Sister Louis-Hector's Silver Jubilee. On this spe- cial occasion we presented her red and white carnations to express our gratitude. Quite a few good basketball players have emerged from our class. On the Notre Dame J. V. team are: Alfred Hevey, Richard Wil- liams Richard Patenaude, Robert Proulx, Gerald Marand, and Paul Proulx. Keep your chin up, boys, we've got a grand team and there are plenty of seasons left. Our Freshman Class of '53 had the pleas- ure of having the first orchestra dance with Al Hackey. It was a great success, thanks to our roguish chairman, Richard Patenaude. Classes, tests, and report cards were gulped down, and before we knew it, June announced the end of a profitable year. The Seniors graduated, Juniors became Seniors, Sophomores were called upperclassmen and we, amid the glories which accompany the closing of school, left with the hard-earned title of Sophomores To the Freshmen-to-be we wish to ex- tend the heartiest welcome ever, and hope that good fortune will befall them always.

Second row Coach Leo Dandurand, Rev. Edgar Pelletier, athletic director, Dan Yvon, Roland Boisvert Manager Arthur Rousseau. Third row Andre Poirier, Francois Trahan, Fred Morin, Laurence Lavigueur. Um dw!! The first baseball team in the history of Notre Dame High School was organized last year. Coach Leo Dandurand was very busy getting the team in shape for the team's debut against St. Louis High of Webster on April 18. Mr. Dan- durand was assisted in his coaching duties by Eddie Julian. Rev. Edgar A. Pelletier was faculty advisor of the squad. Workouts were held daily at the American Optical Co.'s athletic field. Most of the entire squad was made up of Freshmen and Sophomores, so the future looks rosy. These boys will have plenty of practice and experience by the time they play their last season at Notre Dame High. Three hurlers were among the fifteen aspirants: Real Brunelle, Paul Forcier, and Raymond Desrosiers. Catching duties went mainly to Frank Trahan, sometimes replaced by Fred Morin. Other members of the team were Bernard Robert, Daniel Yvon, Roger O'Brien, Andre Poirier, Laurant Bourbeau, Sammy Lavigueur, Roland Bois- vert, Robert Leblanc, Arthur Rousseau, and Andre Lavallee. Frank Trahan was captain of the squad and Victor Despres was manager. St. Louis High spoiled the first game for the Notre Dame nine, setting them back by a 22-4 score. But Notre Dame bounced back, with the help of the great pitching of Real Brunelle, and stunned Cole Trade High 9-5. The team then lost four in a row: Holy Name Q11-51, East Douglas Q6-51, Assump- ,Y 1 wx t iii? L .basl f .na .il DIAMOND ACTION 34465455 eaaaa tion Q13-35, and Cole Trade 119-125. They then beat David Prouty High 12-10, with Ben Robert's four hits paving the Way. They then dropped the last five games to St. Louis Q10-41, Holy Name C19-85, Wells Q20-61, East Douglas Q14-15, and David Prouty High 111-55. These games total up to two Wins and ten de- feats for Notre Dame. The team was not mainly concerned on how Well the team would do in its first year. Most important was the fact that they were gaining ex- perience for future seasons. Just the fact that they had a chance to play last year was enough. The season did not end here, however, with the boys. Most of them played summer baseball under the name of the Southbridg Terriers. The coaching job was filled out by Eddie Julian. This team had a little more luck, Winning five and losing eight. The mentoring duties this year will be given entirely to Eddie Julian, with all the boys, excepting a few, returning to play again this year. All in all, Notre Dame had a fairly good season considering the odds piled up against them. Notre Dame should have successful seasons in the future. So, to all the boys who Will play, from the graduates Who' Will be their fans, may you have many, many successful seasons. Good luck! Roger O'Brien, '53.

'gcwketfall Another season of basketball has been laid to rest. and Notre Dame High School held an unblemished record of no wins and seventeen defeats. You may laugh at this but. we took it on the chin like all good sportsmen do. Although we were losing all our games we were hopeful of winning one, even though it would mean that we would have to spoil our record. and this is what gave us the spark of hope. This year we had a lot of practice and plenty of experience, since it was the first year we were entered in the Class B Division 2. of the Worces- ter County Catholic League. Notre Dame had a swell bunch of fellas on the team. Big center Andre f'Andy Poirier who led. once again this year, in individual scoring. Notre Dame will miss his height off the boards next year. Daniel Danny Yvon and Francois Frank Trahan. guards: two very good players. Ray- mond 'fR.ay Desrosiers and Bernard 'fBenny Robert, forwards: they sure could hustle. Other players on the varsity squad were: Lawrence Sam Lavigueur. Real f'Ray Brunelle, and Roger Legs O'Brien. They also saw plenty of action. And I rnust not forget Roland Boisvert, who suffered a broken hand in practice. and was forced out in the middle of the season. He was Hraking' those points up before he suffered that unfortunate acci- dent. The team felt this loss but, Roland. after his mishap. never missed a game. Our coach this year was. again as last year. Mr. Clifford Pontbriand. His coaching abilities are unquestionable: he is esteemed by the whole squad. We were fortunate this year in receiving a beautiful automatic elec- tric scoreboard, donated by Mr. and Mrs. Francois Sansoucy and Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Lariviere. and to their generosity we sincerely pay tribute. ll Q, Q 1- .-.., ,..- I V 'fp Hat' I X A ff ., ,. fx .,, 1 I1 Mr' ' ' 5' - ' 'f sf- : .

Perhaps our boys did not fare so well in our basketball games but, We certainly were encouraged by the cheering section which represented our school. In every group there are leaders, and to lead our cheering section We nominated seven wonderful cheerleaders As Seniors we selected Yvette Lapierre to be captain of the cheer- leaders. lt was something altogether new to her, but she did a Wonder- ful job. The Senior class was also represented by Therese Miller, in her sec- ond year of cheering for Notre Dame High. These two girls, cheering for the t'Blue and Whitef, helped tremendously to spark that grand Notre Dame School spirit. The Juniors gave us energetic Laura Bachand and Sylvia Beaudry to cheer on the squad. The Underclassmen were represented by Claudette Ouellette, Sopho- more, a grand leader in her second year of cheeringg and Diane Phoenix from the Freshman class who gave vim and pep to our great squad. No cheering squad is complete Without a mascot. Chosen as the miss- ing link to connect the chain was little Victor Rochon, Jr. This little fella took part in a majority of the cheers for the Blue and White, and perhaps in later years the cheerleaders will cheer for him when he plays for Notre Dame High School. May the cheerleaders who are staying, and those who will replace those leaving, keep that spirit of unity which exists at Notre Dame High. Real Brunelle, '53. Quia 442655655 If the boys can do it, so can the girls. This was the answer the girls gave the boys when they were kidded about the organizing of the girl's basketball team last year. Although the girls didn't have the oppor- tunity to prove themselves, they were nevertheless determined to do so dur- ing this new season. After playing a few games the girls showed what they really could do. The boys finally had to give credit to the fairer sex. Even though the season was not very long, the girls played with a true spirit of sincere team-work. And we can't forget the encouragement they received from the school and I must add, even from the boys , . . they were swell. Their first game was with Charlton High School. Though the outcome was not victory, their spirit was far from subdued. Their second attempt to get winning honors was likewise foiled on the evening they met the North Grosvenordale High lassies in the latter team's home grounds. But the return game told a different story. Their hope was realized, their mission accomplished . . . they won - although by the slim margin of one point, it was a victory and they earned it. This tribute would be incomplete without a note of worthy praise to Miss Lorraine Proulx, our capable coach. Her efforts were greatly appre- ciated by the girls. Her instructions will no doubt be very valuable in years to come. Thanks, Lorraine! I And to you, Father Lucier, for your efforts in organizing Notre Dame's first girl's basketball team in the school's history, we are deeply indebted. We realize how difficult it must have been to find a coach for our little squad. To you girls of this yearls squad, we offer hearty congratulations! And to those of years to come, we, the Seniors of 53 , wish the best of luck. Keep your ideals high and, with the help of God. you'll always win in some way.

J J gf Ci 1436 On the 6th of June, a beautiful night ex- cept for the weeping of the clouds now and then, cars came from all directionsg but all were going to a common destination - Notre Dame Hall. They were going to dance to the smooth music of George Otis' Orchestra. Happy couples came for this One-night-oi the-year to enjoy together an evening of fine entertainment. Many people came to see the splendid decorations. They sat in the balcony and enjoyed every minute of it trying to miss not a single thing. The charm- ing young ladies with their escorts were beautifully arrayed in colors that were just rightly becoming to this lovely night in June - a night that will never be forgotten by those who shared its rapture. A rose-garnished trellis of white, sur- rounded by grass spotted with White-colored stones, was the center of beauty of our dec- orations. We had pink, green and white streamers looping from light to light. It gave an atmosphere of spring. ?fzam Mid-evening was marked by the Grand March in which couples toured the spacious hall to the lively rhythm of the band. At this time it was the moment to decide which couple would be king and queen. It Was dif- ficult to choose a queen among so many charming and beautiful young ladies. Fin- ally, the decision was made. They crowned Miss Rachel Brodeur as queen and her es- cort, Henry Fairbanks as king. They each received a gift. After this the cheerful crowd was served punch. Dancing was then resumed while some had their photos taken under the trellis of roses. These photos will be the only visible proofs of our Prom. But the mirth and melodies of that Loveliest Night of the Year Will forever remain printed in our album of memories. Yvette Courtemanche, '53.

The Social Committee was organized to pro- vide clean and wholesome fun for the youth of our community. This year we were led to our achievements by our able chairman, Laura Bachand, who strived to make this organization a great success. All of the students must be indeed congratulated for the fine spirit in making the weekly dances a success. Without doubt, we must commend with a Summa cum laude the sixteen members on this Committee whose aim was to give proper balance to our education by providing for our so- cial life. The Senior class was Well represented by Roger O'Brien, Gerard Robert, Therese Berard with Yvette Courternanche as alert chairman. The Juniors gave us: Constance Langlois, chairman, assisted by Joan Paquin and Jeannine Blanchet. The ever-hard-working Sophomores were led by Donald St. Jean, chairman, with Roland Boisvert, Pauline Courtemanche, and Claudette Ouellette. Of course, we can't forget our Freshmen, who came through with fly- ing colors under the leadership of Richard Patenaude, chairman, while Al- fred Langevin, Lauria Saulnier, and Lorraine Roy gave a helping hand. This has been a job well done under the guidance of our moderator, Father Page. May everyone keep up the good work under the leadership of our Blessed Mother. Real Brunelle, '53.

C'est le grand concert donne par la Chorale de notre ecole superieure. Ma soeur superieure, assise avec nos religieuses. nous regarde avec un sourire encourageant. Notre indispensable Soeur Marie-de-Montfort s'exe-cute d'une maniere admirable, et avec notre Norrnand si talente qui nous dirige, tout se passe a merveille. Les applaudissements resonnants nous donnent un elan nouveau et nous terrninons notre concert avec le Star Spangled Banner qui est toujours une des rneilleures manieres de comple- ter une soiree de Franco-Americains. 'Q QW Q f q fig! aacaaw ale Un juriste francais ecrivait un jour cette parole que nous jugeons d'une oppor- tunite heureuse: t'Le geste magnifique n'est pas celui qui essaye d'eteindre les lumieres du ciel, mais celui qui travaille fi les allumer chez les petits, chez les simples. chez les pauvres, avec autant de sollicitude et de respect que chez les savants, les grands. Mais ce geste, les imitateurs du Christ savent seuls le faire: c'est une gloire qu'on ne parviendra pas a leur enleverf' Le Pere de nos arnes, l'e-veque dc ce diocese, Son Excellence Monseigneur John J. Wright, est l'un de ces allumeurs de talents et d'energies au service de toutes les causes. Et 1'une des causes qui lui tiennent le plus au coeur c'est, croyons-nous. l'education des enfants. des jeunes - la formation complete et brillante des etudi- ants de toutes races, de toutes langues. Au debut de l'annee scolaire 1950-1951, par la voix de notre Secretaire du Bureau de 1'Education, le Reverend Raymond Page, Son Excellence Monseigneur Wright ouvrait un Concours de Declamation, engageant paternellement le personnel enseignant des Ecoles Superieures du diocese a presenter des eleves, afin d'habituer nos jeunes a parler en public. a s'exprimer avec correction, intelligence, voire avec grace. chacun dans SA LANGUE MATERNELLE. Stirnules par cette invite precieuse, et animes d'un grand desir de cultiver nos Franco-Americains, les professeurs de francais n'hesiterent pas a donner dans le mouvement. lls embauchaient la tache redoutable de faire triompher la langue d'une minorite dans un pays ou l'anglais est officiellement reconnu et accepte, mais ils avaient la certitude que les promoteurs du concours de Declamation possedaient une culture transcendante et universelle, et qu'ils etaient au-dessus des bornes suscitees par le chauvinisme ou autres anomalies de meme acabit. La perspective d'un travail surerogatoire aboutissant a une lutte serree n'effraya pas longternps les jeunes concurrents, et c'est d'un coeur leger qu'au jour indique les trois candidats choisis par le bon Pere Page se rendaient a Webster, lieu designe pour l'e-preuve eliminatoire. Mademoiselle Madeleine Levesque et Monsieur Normand Gagnon representaient le groupe junior-senior, et Mademoiselle Claire Robert, la classe freshman-sophomore, Toutes deux, Madeleine et Claire, furent jugees de premier me-rite. Le dimanche suivant, au concours final de Worcester, dans une salle re-mplie DBIUIIIIUIL 1 haf, 1-Q., f De gauche at droite:-Soeur Marie-de-la-Reparation, Claire Robert, Francois Trahan, Donald S! -Jean, Marie Haling.

Son Ex- cellence proclama Mademoiselle Claire Robert gagnante du groupe freshman-sopho- more, et lui fit l'honneur de lui remettre le trophee sur-le-champ. Notre Academie garde fidelement le souvenir de cette minute memorable. Et c'est avec respect et fierte que nous avons conserve, une annee durant, la marque de distinction que l'elite culturelle et intellectuelle de notre diocese nous avait accordee avec impartia- lite . . . Avec elegance aussi, puisque la solennite et le serieux de ces assises ont ete illumines par le charme et le sourire de l'un des plus remarquables dignitaires cle l'Eglise catholique, aux Etats-Unis 1951-1952-L'initiative a fait boule de neige, et le concours s'avere interessant: ii l'epreuve preliminaire, le zele Pere Page n'a que l'ernbarras du choix. Il opte enfin pour Claire Robert et Francois Trahan, eleves de troisieme annee de notre Academie, et decide que Therese Fortin et Donald St-Jean representeraient la division fresh- man-sophomore. En semi-final, Claire Robert tient haut la dragee: elle ira prendre part au grand final. Cette fois, nos compatriotes de langue anglaise remportent la palme apres nous avoir fait l'honneur de la disputer de facon assez serree. 1952-1953 - Des l'ouverture des classes, le Cours de Declamation appelle toutes les bonnes volontes, et l'on se dit decides at gagner la victoire. Au concours prelimi- naire . . . les candidats de l'annee precedente, Claire et Francois, sont en vedette: le cher Pere Page de dire: 'tlls sont merveilleux tous les deux. Il decide de les en- voyer au semi-final de Worcester avec, cette fois, Mademoiselle Marie Haling et Monsieur Donald St-Jean pour representer le groupe freshman-sophomore. Les deux jeunes filles sont proclamees gagnantes. A la date indiquee, elles se rendent au St. Mary's High School Auditorium pour la joute finale. Le personnel de l'Ecole Superieure veut les suivre. Ceux qui en sont empeches leur accordent leurs voeux, leurs prieres instantes. Un grand honneur rejaillit sur les professeurs et les eleves du High School de Notre-Dame de Southbridge au moment ou Son Excellence Monseigneur Wright monte sur la scene de l'Auditorium, et, avec la dignite et la belle amabilite qu'on lui connait, proclame parmi les noms des gagnants celui de NOTRE CLAIRE ROBERT, qui a fait moisson de lauriers. ll est facile d'imaginer les acclamations enthousiastes et les applaudissements qui eclaterent surtout au sien du groupe des spectateurs forme par ses compagnes et compagnons, au moment ou Son Excellence lui remettait personnellement le symbole de son triomphe.

' F This building comprises four large rooms, excep- - 4 - tionally beautiful to each of us because these i l rooms contain cherished memories. As we en- . ter, the keeper takes us to the first room called y V Freshman Roomf' Paintings like Getting Ac- 4 - A.-F, 4 quaintedf' Election Day in the Classroom, Sr, Superior's Feast and A Day at Rivier College are displayed. Let's get a closer view of these paintings, starting with the first one Getting Acquaintedf' On this painting we see the pupils from Notre Dame and Sacred Heart getting acquainted with each other and meeting their teachers, Sr. Marie-de-la-Reparation and Sr. Elizabeth-de-Hongrie. Now let us examine another painting. The next painting that we shall examine is Election Day in the Classroom. On the painting we see Sr. Elizabeth-de-Hongrie explaining to the class how we should go about our election: and then the delegate with the majority of votes would be elected. The following were elected: Presi- dent-Claire Robert, Vice-President-Therese Miller. Secretary-Prudence Gatineau, Treasurer-Roger O'Brien, and Librarian-Yvette Courtemanche. The remaining two paintings Sr. Superior's Feast and A Day at Rivier College are picturesquely described by their titles. The keeper then takes us into the second large room called Sophomore Roomw. In this room we find tableaux like Election Dayw, The Bishop Wright Declamation Contest , Young People at a Halloween Party , and The Crowning of the Blessed Virgin . Election Day . This tableau represents 10 girls and 3 boys with their teacher Sr. Marie-de-la-Reparation choosing the candidates for the election. Claire Robert-President, Yvette Courtemanche-Vice-President. Prudence Gatineau-Secretary, Therese Miller and Marie-Ange Lefleche- Treasurers, were elected as officers. Other teachers of that year were: Sr. Jean-du-Cenacle, Sr. Elizabeth-de-Hongrie and Sr. Helene-du-Crucifix. Then we go to the Bishop Wright Declamation Contest tableau. Here we see Claire Robert reciting Le Petit Mendiant . Her recitation was very well received and thus she was awarded the beautiful trophy. Young People at a Halloween Party . In October we had a Hallo- ween Party in which the whole school participated, each class contributing to the entertainment. Our class presented a song entitled La Cantinieref' The Crowning of the Blessed Virgin . Every year someone is chosen to crown the Blessed Virgin. This year Claire Robert was the one that had the great honor of crowning our Heavenly Queen. The guide then shows us to the third room which is still more beau- tiful than the first two rooms. This room is entitled Junior Room . In this roorn we see pictures like Class Officers , Declamation Contestn, Class Ring', The Prom , Banquet , University of Massachusetts , Taking a Trip to Canada , and The Coronation of the Blessed Virgin . Class Officers . The class officers of our Junior Year were: Yvette Courtemanche-President, Marie-Ange Lafleche-Vice-President, Therese Miller-Secretary, Rachel Pleau-Treasurer, and Therese Berard-Libra- rian. Our home-room teacher was Sr. Marie-de-Lourdes. Our other teach- ers were: Sr. Marie-de-la-Reparation, Sr. J ean-du-Cenacle, and Sr. Elizabeth de-Hongrie. Wdatafcg 70 ,4 Wfadeam Declamation Contest . At the annual Bishop Wright Declamation contest Claire Robert was successful at the semi-finals. Although she did not bring back the trophy at the finals, we all consider Claire as Tops ! One of the happiest moments of our Junior Year was the day we received our Class Ring. On the picture entitled Class Ring we see everyone trying on their rings and appearing rightly proud of them. We will always remember that day. The Promf' At last our turn came to plan for the prom. We all worked very hard so that we could get the best of everything for our Prom , We are very proud to say that it was one of the nicest proms ever had. The Banquet . The Junior Senior Banquet was held at the Webster- Dudley Country Club. The invited guests were Monseigneur Lamothe and his curates. University of Massachusetts . Francois Trahan was chosen as a delegate to the Boyis State Convention sponsored by the American Legion and held on the University of Massachusetts campus. Taking a Trip to Canada . Claire Robert was chosen as delegate to the third Congres de la Langue Francaise held in Canada, and lasting a week. Now we go to the last picture in this room called The Coronation of the Blessed Virgin . Yvette Courtemanche was the one upon whom was be- stowed the honor of crowning the Blessed Virgin. The guide is now taking us into the last room of the museum. This room is the largest one of all containing memorable paintings. Paintings such as Initiation , Class Leadersw, The Annual Bishop Wright Declamation Contest , Good Government Day , and Concert are displayed. The first painting, Class Leaders , we find Francois Trahan as Presi- dent, Jeannette Beaudry-Vice-President, Claire Robert-Secretary, Pru- dence Gatineau-Treasurer. Our home-room teacher was Sr. Eustelle-de- l'Eucharistie. Our other teachers were Sr. Marie-de-la-Reparation, Sr. S. Jean-du-Cenacle, Sr. Marie-de-Lourdes, and Sr. Elizabeth-de-Hongrie. Initiation . A freshman party was held at the parish hall where we initiated the Freshmen for the first time. The Annual Declamation Contest was held at Worcester. This year Claire Robert brought back a beautiful trophy. We are all proud of it. Good Government Day . Francois Trahan was chosen as our repre- sentative for Good Government Day at Boston. The Concert . The Notre Dame High School Glee Club presented a Concert on March 14 and 15 under the direction of Sr. S. Anne and Sr. Marie- de-Montfort. It was called faultless and we quote. Now we see faintly becoming visible, developing negatives. We can see the outlines. On the first one we see our Junior-Senior Prom, our Banquet and finally, faintly but with hope, our Graduation, the Mass and then the awarding of the diplomas by Monsignor Lamothe, our be- loved and devoted pastor. And thus we have seen again those four years of our High School education, years filled with memories, memories of incidents, some of which are sad and others happy, but all of which we will never forget. Our lives were and will be, a combination of joys and sorrows but, holding God's protecting hand and guided by the Star of the Morn', we will reach our destination . . . Eternity, life everlasting.

Mr. So-N-So is off for the census. While glancing at his list, he realizes that he knows most of the people on it, for he remembers having seen them in High School. Yes, he remembers having been at Notre Dame High with them when they graduated in '53, Fine! He's curi- ous to know how they all made out! His first stop is the Trahan Estate. He rings and the chimes are heard through- out the 18 rooms. Having been admitted by the butler, he proceeds to the drawing room where he finds Professor Trahan, pipe in mouth, studying. Good morning, Prof. Trahan, I'm Mr. So-N-So. Do you remember me from your High School days? - Indeed I do, Mr. So-N-So! Those good old days, eh, my boy? - Ah! Yes, but tell me about all your former classmates of that year. I know that you have founded the lshkabibble School of Tetchnology and that you are now acting Precedent of all Tetchnologists. What about the others? Well, Yvette Lapierre is now in Chinkytown, teaching 'Le laboureur et ses enfants' to a class of advanced Chinamen at the U-never-sitee of U-Standee. Marie-Ange Lafleche's wide experience with putting down figures in the col- umns of her journal at Robbins encouraged her to leave town and go to Colum-bus. Ohio, where she now occupies a wonderful position - that of putting down figures in the columns of her journal - only it's Blue Jay's this time. She is still trying to figure out why in the world she ever left Home! As the sole proprietor of a cat factory, Roger O'Brien has been doing very well. He loves cats and will pay anyone S5 for any cat brought to him dead of 15 days or more. When they're good and stiff, the Catsup dealers are more than happy to pur- chase them. Now you know what they serve you on hamburgers! Jeannette Beaudry has bought out Universal Tag and is now manufacturing chlorophyll tags with a peppermint flavor for the gummed labels. She has gone mad over the color and keeps on imagining that the Government is taking much too much from her. Terry Miller is now at the Met-your-politician Opera House giving special voice lessons to Dorothy Tear-Skin and Greasa Stevens. She has done a great num- ber of Come-And-Perform-n-siz in England, Spain, Switzerland and France and is now in the 'Fall of Hamef The last I heard, Claire Robert was in France, pursuing her studies in the French langvidge. She is now directing her own School of Screech in Eel-:-landia! She has won many cups from which she serves home-brewed tea to her friends. I believe Real Brunelle, the 'don't-let-them-hatch-before-I-get-there' scientist, is in the densest part of Africa looking for specimens for his research work on the proper care and panhandling of rare insects called 'Odontscratchmybackimticklishf Terry Berard is now Mrs. Howe Yuben Latelee. She is now mother of 8 well-scrubbed-behind-the-ears offsprings who go around the house writing shorthand on all the white walls, much to mother's dismay. Trigonometry was always one of Yvette Courtemanche's favorite subjects, second only to Study Period. She must have known that it would help her in her fu- ture life because she is now making lots of money working for the Government. You see, she's greasing triggers for guns as they go by on the assembly line. It's usually dull but occasionally she gets a 'bang' out of it. Gerard Robert, as everyone knows, has been promoted from Secretary of Dif- ference to Secretary of Slate in Washington. He likes it very much and hopes some day to become Vice-Press-And-Dent. I've been told that Rachel Pleau has become one of our leading contemporary poets. Her work is very original and treats of race discrimination which is a big problem in the lives of the Red and Brown fleas. She has been named poet Lariat by the Society of the Friends of Fleas. 'Prudence Gatineau has been awarded her 3rd degree by the Colleagues of the Monkeyseekill-Monkeydokill. She has excelled in the art of Monkeyseekill but is still trying for her lst degree in Monkeydokill. I would be very curious to know what the future has in store for us poor unsuspecting people if she passes her test. Now, there's Andy Poirier who has now retired from the entertaining game of bounceaball but who is coaching his seven-foot boys in that field. Perhaps you have heard of his team? It's called 'Ye Itty Bitty Pigmy Bounceaball Teamyf Have you? Quite a class we had in '53, don't you think???? Claire Robert, '53, 6444 70666 We, the Class of '53, being of sound mind and body, do bequeath to you this deed and do proclaim this document to be our final Will and Testament. It is with heartfelt thanks, that we, Seniors of '53, leave to you, dear Sister Superior, this compiled volume of memories so very dear to us. To the Administration we leave our most sincere thanks for all you have done for us over these years of formation and education, namely, for your patience, under- standing, and your interest in our well being. So that Dan will shine next season, Andy leaves to him his basketball ability. We hope you can fill his shoes, Dan. Frank leaves to Ray Desrosiers his chair as Senior Class President. Preside over the Senior Class of tomorrow with concern so as to make that year a memorable, eventful, and successful one. Though it may be a great loss to him, Andy leaves to Joan LaRochelle his Hot- Rod. Don't forget, Joan, it burns gas! Though you don't need it, Connie, Claire leaves to you her grey matter, A little more never hurt anyone. In order to keep you with us, Joan Paquin, Jeannette Beaudry leaves to you her much-needed waterwings and duck feet. To continue the success of our renowned Glee Club, Therese Miller leaves to you, Sylvia Beaudry, her Nightingale Voice. If a different tennis racquet will insure you victory, Sylvia Marand, Frank leaves you his. It grieves us, June Proulx, to see you so close to the ground, Calthough your heart is lifted aboveb, therefore, Terry Miller leaves to you her height. Grill-man Brunelle leaves to you, Peggy Gervais, the recipe for the Mathieu's Diner Hamburgers. Because of your eloquence in the art of declamation, Therese Fortin, Claire leaves to you the trophy. Don't forget to keep it at Notre Dame. Since you are seen but seldom heard, Ann Trudeau, the quiet one of the Senior Class, Gerard Roberts, leaves to you a firecracker. Remember, Ann, a little noise is a touch of cheer. As a means to excite your love for the piano, Claudette Trahan, Yvette Courte- manche leaves to you her dexterity at the keyboard. Having the ambition of some day being a hairdresser, Therese Berard leaves to Joanne Roy, so that she might be of assistance to her father . . . a pair of scissors. If you had Gerry Robert's height, Jeannine Blanchet, you would be a mighty big help to the Girl's basketball team. Therefore, Gerry gladly bequeaths his to you. Knowing that you, Jeanne Lacasse, will soon be a Senior, Prudence Gatineau leaves to you that characteristic quality of a Senior, her quiet dignity. So that you may be favorably regarded by Sister John as was Rachel Pleau, the latter leaves to you, Doris Martel, her ability in manipulating the key boards of busi- ness machines. Hoping that you, Jacqueline Bergeron, will be amidst the mathematicians of the trigonometry class, Jeannette Beaudry leaves to you her clear understanding of the intricate Pythagorean theorem. To you, Laura Bachand, Yvette Lapierre leaves the responsibility of cheering our boys on to victory. Laura, be proud of those colors, Blue dz White. Even though it breaks his heart to leave them, Roger O'Brien entrusts to you, Carmen Gendreau, the care of his cats. Remember, Carmen, they are his priceless possessions. Because of your need for it, Theresa Berard bequeaths to you, Pauline Cham- pigny, her inherited bottle of peroxide. To encourage your bookkeeping, Marie Ange leaves to you, Alice Belanger, her Bookkeeping Award. To Lucille Martel, Prudence Gatineau leaves her love of books. May you always find in them a source rich in entertainment and information. Because of your radiant smile, Shirley Therrien, Rachel Pleau leaves to you her pretty dimple. Have a smile for everyone you meet.
