u4ip (Class nf 1951 pmuntts Clje illcta “Born not for ourselves only, but for the whole world.” Cover by Elsie Thacher, ’51 PEABODY HIGH SCHOOL Peabody, Massachusetts Page Four MET A Peabody High School ALMA MATER META Page Five Peabody High School FOREWORD Through four long, fruitful years we have lived together, worked together, and played together, but now the time has come when the highway of our school life separates into many long, tortuous and diverse roads. Although the future is uncertain, we confidently make plans for many years to come and we trust to God that He will guide us safely along whatever path our steps may take. As we journey on our way through life may this META ever be a constant source of enjoyment and comfort. All that is written therein shall bring back, in memory at least, a time of joyful remembrance. Thus as we leave dear Peabody High School with heads held high and eyes on distant stars, our hearts linger briefly at the doorway between youth and maturity. May all our fondest hopes be realized in the days and years that lie ahead. Page Six META Peabody High School In Mrmnrtam MR. MICHAEL F.

But it seems, too, that we ought to think of our other friends, our teachers, who will remain to guide the faltering footsteps of those who will follow us in succeeding classes. How patient they must have been to be able to tolerate our moods of depression, our days of impetuous whims! We are truly grateful to them for their patience and their wisdom which have been an inspiration to all of us. To the members of our faculty we say a hearty “thank you” for all they have done for us during these four happy years. OUR FACULTY FRIENDS MR. WILLIAM A. WELCH, Superintendent MR. ].

DRAMATIC GUILD During our four year stay in high school the Dramatic Guild proved to be by far the most popular of our out-of-school activi- ties. Many of the members of ' 51 were active in the organiza- tion from Freshman year to Senior, and as we leave our high school days behind we shall have many happy memories of the enjoyable hours we spent in getting ready for the various pro- ductions in which we participated. To Mr. D. Edward Gorman, our very popular and talented director, we of ' 51 owe a sincere debt of gratitude for his interest in us as a group and as individuals, for his skill and his patience in directing the stage productions of the Guild. Thz officers of the Dramatic Guild in our last year were as follows: President, Marvin Clopper; Vice-President, Anastasia Tilas: Secretary, Phyllis Gretchenuk; Treasurer, George Jimokas; Chairman of Board of Directors, Ann Sullivan: Senior Director, Jane Freitas; Junior Director, Peter Feldman; Sophomore Director, William Kachinski; Freshman Director, Janet Buckley.

It was on December 1, 1950 that the Dramatic Guild staged the thrilling and mysterious play Calling All Ghosts. ' This title aptly suggests the events of the play, and all doubts the audience might have had about the existence of ghosts were dispelled as ghost after ghost appeared to keep the audience in a state of constant suspense. The plot revolves around a 21 year old girl, Marian Van Arsdale, who has just inherited a mansion from her uncle. She is in love with a rather selTcentered mystery writer. Bob Trent. He will never admit he is wrong and this starts a series of events that keep the audience laughing but perplexed until the end when all is explained. Marian, of course, marries Bob, and he admits that it is possible for him to be wrong once in a while. The cast was as follows: Marian Van Arsdale _ Jane Freitas ’51 Bob Trent Ray Durkee ' 51 Helen Van Arsdale Ann Sullivan ’51 Susan Phyllis Gretchenuk ’51 Lily Ford Eunice Singerman ’52 George Packard Arthur McCarthy ’52 Dr. Bromwell Brass , Marvin Clopper ' 51 Marjorie Clark Ivernia Chulyk ' 51 Veiled Woman Thelma Bazer ' 51 Lady Intruder , Bebe Karelitz ' 54 Gentleman Intruder Nathan Tanzer ’51 Grumpy Peter Feldman ’52 Mr. Gorman, the popular and capable adviser of our Dramatic Guild, did his customary excellent work as director of the play, and to him the members of the Guild extend their sincere thanks. The assistant director was Anastasia Tilas, ' 51; the promp- ters were Evelyn Chipman and Ruth Shmase, ' 52; the stage manager was Philip Quint, ' 51: the assistant stage managers were Adeena Anasoulis, Helen Campbell and Peggye Wright, ' 51; the sound and lights were by James La Pointe, ’52 and Leonard Rosenfield, ' 51. “Calling All Ghosts” will be, indeed, one of our very happy memories of high school days.

May 11, 1951 Calling Dr. In Sane !!! Calling Dr. Cray Zee !!! At the conclusion of the Spring play of the Peabody High School Dramatic Guild, “Everybody’s Crazy”, the cast was truly in need of a good psychiatrist. The hectic, side-splitting produc- tion directed by our talented and very capable adviser, Mr. D. Edward Gorman, was heartily enjoyed by the entire audience. The plot revolves around the three owners of a hotel. Rumors that hidden treasure may be buried on the premises bring to the hotel a host of curious and eccentric guests all of whom hope to make their fortune by recovering the treasure. After many flir- tatious and fantastic antics of the three owners, it is re- vealed that the former landlord and his wife have conspired to cheat the co-owners out of their money. The three partners find the money, and, as in all comedies, “they lived happily ever after.” Included in the cast were: Class of ' 51 — Elaine Assiminas, tlelen Campbell, Claire Bernstein, Marvin Clopper, Raymond Durkee, Philip Quint, Leonard Rosenfield, Sylvia Scholnick, Nathan Tanzer, Francis Towey, Anastasia Tilas, and Peggy Wright. Class of ' 52 — Eunice Singerman, Arthur McCarthy. Class of ' 54 — Frederick Gibbons. Ably assisting Mr. Gorman were: Assistant Director, Ivernia Chulyk, ' 51; Stage Manager, Scott Johansen, ' 51; Assistant Stage Manager, George Lawrence, ' 51; Prompters, Toy Lin Chin, ' 51 and Selma Erlich, ' 52.

They were greeted by such city digni- taries as Mayor Francis Towey, City Clerk George Feeney, Jr., Police Commissioner Bertha Wansley, and Fire Commissioner William Hosman. After being led by Principal Gertrude Cares on an inspection tour of the new George Herbert Palmer High School, which extends from the site of the former Violet’s Cafeteria to Tremont Street, they enjoyed a buffet lunch at the new school cafeteria with the following depart- ment heads: English, Chester Bitchell; Foreign Languages, Scott Johansen; Math- ematics, Richard Durgin: Science, Mary Jane Quirk; History, Frank Morgan; Commercial Studies, Joanne Lawrence; Art, Leo Almeida: Physical Education, Helen O’Connor and George Lawrence; and Music, Thelma Bazer.

Also a gymnasium with a gigantic indoor swimming pool, tennis courts, bowling al- leys, and roller skating rink. The group was told by Janitor, Thomas Perehoduk, that the D. Edward Gorman Theater was closed for the day because of preparations being made for the play which would be presented that evening in honor of the leturning graduates. Following the lunch the visitors re- turned to the heart of our thriving me- tropolis where they were welcomed by Manager Chris Kalivas of Gerakaris Hotel. They retired to their suites to prepare for the gala festivities of the evening. High Notes In The News At the luxurious Popaslop Mansion, yes- terday, an outdoor tea was given by the rich, young, socialite.

This talented girl is Miss Florence Tanke- vitch. Yesterday afternoon, a bridal shower was given by socially prominent. Miss Edith Delp for Miss Claire Mello, who is soon to w ed famous chemist Mr. Rob- ert Mentus. Queer Accidents Continuing its custom of printing the most unusual accidents of the past year, the Mirage today presents a record of those in 1961. Some will seem incredi- ble. The dubious distinction of shooting himself with his own pants goes to Char- lie Tracchia. Mr. Tracchia, in disrobing for the night, flung his pants at a chair, but instead of hitting the chair, the trousers came in contact with a .22 cal- iber rifle hanging on the wall, knocking it to the floor. The rifle went off, deposit- ing a bullet in Mr. Tracchia’s arm. He was rushed by his landlady. Dot Soboc- zinski, to the hospital but was not serious- ly injured. In Iceberg, South Carolina, Miss Ann Sullivan was embarrassed by the following incident. While in the city she walked smack into the rear of a parked car and was hauled into the police court on a charge of “reckless walking”. A Pennslyvania man. Spike Vassilios. strolling with his wife, Elsie Thacher, glanced momentarily into a shop window. When he turned his head his wife had vanished into thin air. Yes, you guessed it. She had stepped into an open man- hole. A California woman, Claire Thibedeau, couldn’t understand why two workmen coming toward her along the street kept exactly 10 feet apart — until she walked head-on into the large sheet of plate glass they were carrying between them. When a caterpillar tractor passed com- pletely over a woman, Clara Thibedeau, who was working in a field, horrified on- lookers rushed forward to shovel up the flattened remains. Instead, she got up from the soft earth into which she had been pressed, little the worse for her ex- perience. A policeman ' s wife, Catherine Thorpe, broke her husband ' s leg demonstrating the ju jitsu he had taught her, before an appreciative audience of women. A baby fell out of a second story win- dow into the arms of a messenger boy, who at once rang the bell and delivered the surprise package to the maid, Mary Thorpe. Hearing a noice in the night, a Nevada dude ranch guest, Stasia Tilas, grabbed the gun beside her bed and shot into the darkness. She had shot her own big toe!

Fiction Column Twice upon a time, there was in Hydro- phobia, a beautiful princess, Joan La- Belle, who lived with her only companion the lady-in-waiting, Anthe Papandreau, in an elaborate castle on a big mountain. She and another princess, Carol Legro, who lived with a visiting queen, Sophie Pavlo in a crumby castle in a big swamp, were both in love with the same rich prince, Leonard Rosenfield. Deep in the forest there lived a sooth- sayer, Margie Perkins, who had put a curse on this prince when he was but a little boy. The malediction was that if at any time two girls were in love with him at the same time he would immediate- ly change into a wise old owl. The princesses decided to go to the prince and ask him which one he really loved. So one day they went to his castle. On the first greeting the curse came true and the prince was changed into a fuchia owl that flew out the window. The distraught princesses decided to go in search of him, one going to the east, the other to the west. The first princess took the eastern route and after a few days journey she met a wood cutter, Francis Roy, who lived with his wife, Astrid McDonald, in a small hut by the side of the road. The princess asked the woodcutter if he had seen the fuchia owl and he said it had flown toward the next city. Reaching the city, the princess wont to an inn. The inn-keeper, Joe Russell, had gone to visit a friend, John Sdoucos, in South Pepper- box and left the inn in charge of his cousins, Phyllis Medina and Dotty Quint. When asked of the owl, they said he had flown over the mountains. The second princess took the western toute and after traveling a while found she had lost her way. She asked a milk- maid, Mary Mello, if she had seen a fuchia owl but the girl replied “No”. Then she came to two women, Betty Moore and Helen Rennick, picking flowers. When asked the same question they also replied in the negative. The Princess trudged onward until she met a farmer, John Sinkevitch and his wife, Ethelwyn Morrison who were tilling the field The princess asked them about the owl and they said he had gone east. So she fol- lowed their directions until she came to a wide river. The only way she could cross was in a boat owned by fishermen, Costa Spyropolos and Bernard Sullivan, who were busily mending their nets. On the other side of the river she met two mountain climbers, Marie Mullarky and Winnie O’Keefe, and they took her over the mountains where she met the first princess. They traveled together until they met a hunter, Frank Tambini. In his hand he held a smoking rifle and on the ground lay the fuchia owl. Filled with compassion, the first princess, with tears in her eyes, ran over and kissed the owl. In a blinding light, the owl changed back to his original form and since the first princess showed her true love, they traveled to a nearby hut of a Lady Justice of the Peace, Jeanette O’Neil and were married. The second princess traveled back to the inn where she met a traveler, Nathan Tanzer, with whom she immediately fell in love and married. Naturally all lived happily ever after.

Edward Gorman Theater in the High School. As the curtain opened, the heroine, Carol Albee, reclining in her luxurious drawing room was disturbed by her but- ler who announced the arrival of John Arnoldy, who in reality was her secret lover. After they had finished their even- ing meal, her husband, Joe Baptista, en- ters and a tense and dramatic moment fol- META lows. The plot becomes complicated until finally true love wins out”. The supporting role of the butler was played very well by the newly discovered young actor Gabriel Bettencourt. I enjoyed the play very much and would like to commend the Director, Ronald Bolduc, for this fine production. So until next week when I review another play this is your favorite Drama Critic, Josephine Amor. On Saturday the opera critic for this paper attended the opening of the opera “Madam Moth”, presented by the Ham- mypolitan Opera Company. This opera tells, in song, the story of a young Chinese girl, Misue, played by the out- standing singer Jean Gilligan, who falls in love with a Siamese boy, Hecan, por- trayed by baritone Robert McLaughlin The lovers wish to marry but are stopped by Misue ' s mother, a part filled admirably by contralto Doris Goddess, who sends Misue away and has Hecan killed. The opera ends with the sad but lovely aria Sob Your Eyes Out” which is sung by Misue when she returns to find her Hecan dead. The opera was touching, heart-rending, and beautiful and the orchestra, under the direction of the young pianist and leader Phyllis Gretchenuk, did a superb job. Your reporter, Viola Hilik, enjoyed this opera tremendously and recommends it to all music lovers. Miscellaneous Ads WANTED: A girl to swat flies from noon to 6:00 P.

FOOTBALL Although our football team, directed by our new and pop- ular coach, John Bezemes, was far from the best in this area, the team did exhibit some excellent football during the course of the season in spite of the fact that only a single game was won. The team found the tackling and blocking of their oppo- nents much harder and more deadly than their own and were thus unable to pile up many touchdowns without which no team can expect to win too many games. It was a lack of a scoring punch that forced the Tanners into the defeat column so frequently. Our footballers played well enough to win against Lynn Classical, Revere, Beverly and Salem although the Salem game proved to be the single win for the season But then, Salem is the game we always want to win. Several of the boys received recognition for their football prowess at season’s end with Ken Mercer being selected as a member of the Item All-Stars. Co-Captain Ronny Kachinski was selected to play for the North Shore All-Stars in the annual game with the South Shore All-Stars. The following members of the Class of ’51 were regulars on our team during senior year: Co-Captains Paul Comeau and Ronnie Kachinski, Ray Jacques, Ken Mercer, Leo Kravchuk, George Papuchis, Steve Gargas, Bill McGinn, John Felix, George Lawrence, Costa Spyropolis, Tom Nesbitt and Nick Gianarelis.

HOCKEY This year ' s edition of hockey at Peabody kept pace with the previous teams by keeping in the running for the cham- pionship right up to the final game of the season. The nucleus of the squad came down with a severe attack of the “flu” at one stage of the season, handicapping the team in several of its important games. The Tanners dropped their opener against Lynn Classical, but came right back to romp over Saugus, tie Revere, beat Marblehead, lose to Swampscott, and then rack up victories over Lynn English, Salem, Amesbury, Danvers and Beverly. In the finale they dropped a 4 to 2 decision to the “Fishermen” from Gloucester. The only consolation the Tanners carried out of the sea- son was the fact that Capt. Ray Jacques ended the season as the league’s highest scorer, finishing the schedule with a total of twenty points. Jacques was the inspiration and guidance of the team as he not only was the highest scorer but he showed excellent team spirit as is shown by the number of assists that he scored, an even ten. Hardly to be forgotten is the excellent play of Bobby Grayton. He was chosen as the league’s outstanding goalie, a very deserving choice since Grayton was spectacular in every game. He showed tremendous poise and carriage through most of the harder games. Those seniors who will be missed by Coach Charlie Carlin next fall are: Capt. Ray Jacques, Ray Durkee, Leo Kravchuk, Charles Tracchia, Robert Marshall, Gerald Donovan, and Daniel Donahue.

BASKETBALL For the first time in several years at Peabody High, a local basketball team has been in the running for a championship. These were the early season expectations but somehow we proved to be a little too optimistic. The team came through with a record of five wins against nine losses which is not a bad rec- ord but certainly not of the calibre to win a championship. Coach Charlie Cook tried al l manners of combinations in an effort to get a few more wins out of his local charges. Coach Cook was given the opportunity to build his team around the league’s highest scorer in the person of Steve Sarow- sky who won the scoring derby with a total of 250 points. An interesting note about Sarowsky is that he still has another year of basketball ahead of him at P. H. S. It was the spirited and aggressive play of Capt. Bobby Johnson which kept the team on the move in their losing ball games and pushed them when they were in the process of chalking up a victory. The constantly improving play of lanky Chet Bitchell was certainly the nearest highlight of the season to the scoring of Sarowsky. The members of Coach Cook s team who will not return next year are: Capt. Bobby Johnson, and Chet Bitchell.

BASEBALL Since the baseball season is barely underway as this is being written we can hardly foresee the degree of success which our diamond stars will meet this year. This year’s team, how- ever, is considered along with Lynn Classical, Haverhill and Gloucester as the only teams capable of winning the champion- ship of the Essex County League. As we go to press, the team, under the direction of Coach John Bezemes, has wins over Salem and Beverly, but has suf- fered losses at the hands of Lynn Classical and Haverhill. The two losses proved to be heart-breakers for Ray Jacques and Steve Sarowsky. Steve lost to Lynn Classical as a result of five costly errors by his supporting cast. In the Haverhill game, Jacques took the mound in the third inning to hold the Hillies to one hit, that coming in the last half of the ninth inning when Haverhill pulled the game out of the fire after the Tan- ners had come from behind to tie the score. Members of the class of ’51 who represented Peabody on the diamond were Captain Bob Johnson, Ray Durkee, Jack Doherty, Bill McGinn, Ray Jacques, Bob Marshall, Leo Krav- chuk and Jimmy O’Keefe.

Mr. McCarthy has taken over his new duties with an enthusiasm which augurs well for the success of his charges, for he has instilled a new spirit into the boys who are daily working out on the cinder track at the rear of the school. The bulk of the points to be made this season are ex- pected to come from the feet of our own fleet Ken Mercer who has been running this past winter in many of the indoor meets and incidentally capturing his share of points. Another member of ' 51 who will undoubtedly add many points to our totals this year is Captain Scott Johansen who is rapidly developing into a capable shot-putter. Peter Delivorias is a third member of our class who is expected to contribute his share of points in our bid for recognition on the cinder path.

With only four contests in the records at the present time we can only express the hope that the team under the guidance of Coach James Foley will find itself in the remain- ing games and go on to a moderately successful season.

GIRLS ' ATHLETICS This year the girls’ athletic program has been as full and varied as in other years. Most of the seniors of 1951 who have par- ticipated in varsity basketball are proud to boast of having played with a championship team two out of their four years here at P. H. S. The girls ended their 1951 campaign with only one defeat. The Apparatus Club has become a physical outlet for all of our girls in that it provides an opportunity to many who would not take part in basketball. The following are senior girls who participated in the Apparatus Club: Joan Ganey, Adeena Anasoulis, Helen Campbell, Phyllis Gretchenuk, Marie Mullarkey, Sophie Anasoulis, Ann Sullivan, Helen Venios, Joan LaBelle, Kathryn O’Neil, Barbara Isles, Toy Lin Chin, Frances Blake, Clara Thibedeau, and Helen O ' Connor.

Many thanks go to our manager Phyllis Gretchenuck who tried to arrange a good schedule for us, but there was considerable difficulty in getting suitable dates with some of the nearby schools. A hearty thanks to Miss McNamara for all she did for us in the years we spent under her guidance. E. A. H. O’C.

Page Eighty ' four META Peabody High School IN APPRECIATION The last pages of the book of our school days have been turned, and now the book is closed. The realities of those days are gone, never to be relived, but not so our memories of them. Now, as we are leaving our school home for the past four years and stepping out into the unknown, it seems only fitting and proper that, before we set forth, we should in some small way express our gratitude to our many friends who have helped us along the way. To Miss Mary Luz and Mr. Arthur Johnson who so graciously and geneu ously gave of their time to act as Senior Class Advisers we extend our sincere thanks. To Mrs. Ruth Conley we can only say, “Thanks a million” for her patience and skill in directing and staging so successfully our Revue. To Mrs. Eva Haines we shall ever be indebted for her generous contribution of time and artistic talent to our META and to the many social activities of our class. Last, but by no means least, we acknowledge with heartfelt gratitude the untiring efforts of our home room and subject teachers who through four long years have done their utmost to prepare us for the happy and useful lives we hope to lead. As we bid farewell to Peabody High School we express our sincere gratitude to our principal, Mr. Arthur J. Barry, to the entire school faculty, and to all who have helped to make the last four years the happiest years of our lives. AFTERWORD Four years have passed since first we entered Peabody High School, happy and profitable years that we shall not soon forget. In these pages we have tried to keep alive the memories of those years, the memories of our friends and classmates. As the vision of our Alma Mater fades away and our footsteps reecho softly and then are heard no more, let the flame of these memories burn brightly within us always.
