Dolan, ice President; R. Hathaway. President; .1. I ' honipson, Secre- tary; W. Brainley, Treasurer. Co-incident witli the entrance of the class of 1952 into Punchard Hioh School in the fall of 1919, the Student Council, which had been relatively inactive for a lonfj period of time, was re-orjianized w ith three of our classmates as charter members. Raeburn Hathaway as Class President served with Janet Thompson and Richard Brartdey, who were the Faculty Representatives. This threesome retained membership in the Student Council in similar capacities for the remainder of their high school courses, Richard Bramley serving as treasurer for all three years, and Raeburn Hathaway as President of the Council for the past two. In the Spring of 1951 another key position. Secretary of the Council, was filled by Janet Thomp- son. During the school year 1931-1952 an increased membership from our class represented the various organizations of the school. These were: Charlotte Kelley, Faculty Representative; .lohn Kmo Ross, basketball representative; Alan Wilson, football; James Murray, baseball; Robert McCabe, track; Barbara Folley, Class Secretary. As the organization reached ma- turity during our senior year, many radical changes began to take form. The Constitution was amended, giving track representation in the council for the first time and making necessary the ratification of any amendment by a majority vote of the student body. The council was then authorized by the student body to determine the rate of P. A. A. dues and the ratio of distribution to eacli organization. A valiant effort to collect these dues followed. At the sug- gestion of the Council, library regulations were liberalized, locker-rooms were refurbished and equipped for greater efficiency, bus transportation to the Small Schools Basketball tournament was arranged, and deserving seniors were exempted from final exams at the discretion of the individual teachers. Conspicuous among the achievements prompted by the Student Council was the painting and improvement in the care of the Girls ' Room, launched by three girls each representing one of the classes. The graduating members of this year ' s Student Council feel that they are leaving behind a Council and Constitution set upon a sound foundation constructed under the guidance and supervision of Mr. Kellmurray, Faculty Advisor. They further prophesy that the pro- minence the Council achieved so recently will last as long as its members continue to have Mr. Howe ' s approval of, and interest in their work.

The Class of 1952 PUNCHARD HIGH SCHOOL Presented GREEN VALLEY A Comedy-Fantasy in Three Acts MR. MERVIN STEVENS, Director ho of us will over forget that fabulous valley in California where we spent tinee eventful months. The climate was always sunny and warm; those immense Green alley vegetables were the best we had eaten; and life in general was pleasant until the arrival of a certain troublemaker, Tobias J. Everheel. Displaced settlers, driven from neighboring Echo Valley by the rising waters of Everheel ' s dam, were pouring into Green Valley with all their belongings. Things really began to happen, however, when the tractor man, Tinker Smith, uncovered the bones of Eldon ' s ancestors. Suddenly the fuel pump disappeared; Everheel ' s lease was stolen ; boundary stakes were moved; and beanstalks grew before our very eyes. Another interesting product of the alley was Minnie ' s luminous milk which made those who drank it hear weird music and become romantically inclined. The play blossomed with something more than the large and spectacular flowers and vegetables. Ripening to a full bloom at the finish, even though a bit cryptic at first, was the tender bond between Prim (Ruth Belka) and Eldon (Rae Hathaway). A fine romance flourished also between the city-gal, Martha, (Jan Thompson) and the mechanical genius. Tinker, (Gal Hatch). Before sweetness and light triumphed, however, there were fearful and wonder- ful goings-on, what with the risen spirits taking a hand in the proceedings at appropriate intervals. One memorable spirit, who seemed not entirely to have passed over to the Great Beyond, was the worldly Miss Prue (Barbara Folley), still a challenge to any man, dead or alive. Then the lady of the dairy industry (Miriam Demers), lent a solid, free- enterprise aspect to the occasion, while the deceased but active Grandpa w (Mike Boloian) and Grainiy Berry (Chris Baduvakis) almost stole the show with their antics. All in all, it was a momentous production, one which the cast thoroughly enjoyed presenting, and which seemed to please the audience. And it brought forth many hitherto unrevealed talents among our contemporaries. W e are indebted to Mr. Stevens for bringing these talents to the fore, and for laboring through long and weary hours of directing the play, and overseeing the many details of production.

Memories Tliis, dear hearts and gentle people, is the Mellow Memory Hour, originating from Station W PHS. Today, our program is dedicated to the Punchard High School Class of ' 52. Yes, tiie graduation hour is (juickly approaching for another group of noble scholars ; and it is at this time tiiat we look back on the past four years with fond memories. Once upon a time, we were ninth-graders, too — and as lively a class as any (a point which, we are sure, the teachers would readily concede). Just to be different — something tiiis class has always enjoyed being — the members decided to hold a combina- tion beach party and informal dance in June, to replace the lamented prom which had been cancelled. After refreshing dips in the icy water, we had a delicious supper prepared by the male contingent; the picnickers then returned to the gym for the dance. We were not in top condition for such activities, however, since nearly everyone was sporting lobster-red reminders of the sun. Then there was the sterling performance given by our class actors and actresses in The Brewster Boy, presented by the classes of 1951 and 1952, Another big moment in our sophomore year was Punchard ' s first appearance in the Massachusetts High School Drama Festival at Hingham. The superior rating awarded our performance of The Courting of Marie Jenvrin carried with it eligibility to appear in the New England finals at Durham, New Hampshire. What muscles were discovered during the paper drives we held as Juniors! Our treasury realized a very sizeable addition in spite of the drenching rain which soaked both the Juniors and the papers during the first drive. Again that year, Punchard participated in an experience which has become familiar to all of the recent P.H.S. classes — the unforgettable Tech Tournament. There, everyone except the players cheered himself into hoarseness and helplessness while the boys went into the semi-finals in their usual spectacular fashion. One of our most treasured memories will be that of the Junior-Senior Prom — the evening of June 1, 1951, when the gym was transformed into a place of beauty and festive array. The orchestra, the grand march, the choosing of a Queen of the Prom — all provided an impressive backdrop to what is probably our most colorful social occasion. In the last and happiest year at Punchard, we have had many wonderful times together. Those long, exhausting rehearsals for Stunt Night, directed by Barbara Wilson, (a tried and true friend of the class), were not in vain; the show went over with a literal bang. The 1952 Limited was said by many to be the best stunt night ever presented at Punchard. Of course, we had our serious stage offering planned well in advance; and on March 7, with twenty-eight members of the class participating, the Senior play — Green Valley — was performed before a large and apparently completely enthralled audience. We spent many weeks preparing for this unusual comedy-fantasy — difficult weeks they were, too, what with College Boards, basketball tournaments, and other diversions. But we felt amply rewarded when it was all finished, and everyone agreed that it was a massive presentation. Well, folks, our time is slowly running out; so the Mellow Memory Hour of Station WPHS must sign off. We dedicate this program, modestly and mutually to ourselves. Our memories of the past have been well w orth cherishing, and we hope that the future will be as rewarding. Your Announcer has been Christine Baduvakis Back row: D. Nadeau, J. Dolan, . Brainley, L.

FOOTBALL Although Puiichard ' s football gladiators managed to salvage only one win in nine games, they had greater ability than the record shows; and with a little more luck they might have won a few more games. At the beginning of the season, the majority of the team was green , with a few veterans interspersed among the newcomers. A great number of serious injuries liampered the development of the team, especially in the quarterback department. Among the valuable players lost for the season through injuries were such stalwarts as Lou Mirisola, Alan Wilson, and Gil Efinger. W hile the team was unable to pile up an impressive record, there were many players who gained valuable experience for future years. The graduating seniors are: Co-captains Rae Hathaway and Emo Ross, .Tim Brown, Bill Beardseil, Sarkis Sarkisian, Bill McKay, Dick Bramley, Bob Henry, Mike Boloian, and John Friel.

Worcester, Mgr. BASKETBALL Our Punchard hoopsters got off to a slow start, losing five of their first eight games — not too bad for a team that had only one regular starter from the 1950-1951 squad. This one starting veteran was Captain James Dolan, a junior this year. The team really began to catch fire at the Swampscott game; and the wins continued until Punchard had a sensational streak of twelve straight victories, the last two occurring at the Small and Medium Schools Tournament in Maiden. During the regular season, we compiled a record of twelve wins and six losses. Our boys, entered in Class B of the Small Schools Tournament, really proved their ability by defeating Marlboro and Amesbury, with respective scores of 56-49 and 66-60. Punchard lost the final game — a most exciting one — to Barnstable, by a score of 49-48, in the closing seconds of play. Members of the team who will graduate with our class in June are: John Marocco, Jim Murray, Emo Ross, and Alan Wilson. Undergraduate players on the team who will be back for one or more years of varsity basketball are: Jack Carver, Louis Pigeon, Jack Rose, Bill Stack, Tony Sullivan, Paul Whitley, and Ray Yancy. Back row: R. Gloddy, H. Cushnian, D. Gordon, C. Simpson, K. Cignoni, B. Roberts, J. Cole, Robert Mclntyre, Coach. Front roiv: D. Lavigne, G. Brattin, R. Hurley, R. Hathaway, Capt.; J. Laurie, R. McCabe, R. Reed. TRACK With the return of only four lettermen from last year ' s championship team, Coach Mclntyre has been faced with the task of rebuilding. The four lettermen are Warren Tyler, Bob McCabe, Randy Hurley, and Captain Rae Hathaway. The indoor season and early spring training have brought out several promising boys: Tony Sullivan, Jack Laurie, Don Lavigne, Dan Nadeau, Dave Martin, Dave Gordon, and Lou Mirisola on the running events aTid Bruce Stewart, Jack Cole, and Ray Yancy in the field events. Track is now firmly established as a major sport at Punchard, is represented on the Student Council this year by Bob McCabe, and should attract many good pro- spects in the seasons ahead. CROSS COUNTRY Punchard had a successful Cross Country team this year, coached by Mr. McLityre, who was ably assisted by John Ellis, a practice teacher from Boston University. Into the record went a pair of ties with Phillips Academy, a win over Lawrence High, and a good showing in the Massachusetts State Meet. Warren Tyler and Bob McCabe of our class each won a meet. Charley Simpson finished second for the season, followed by Brook Roberts and Dave Haartz who tied for third place. Russ Johnson and George Brattin battled for fourth. Standing: W. McCabe, R.

Sitting on the corner of the bench was no less a personage than the amiable but stern coach of the I ' unchard nine, Mr. Roberts. As his glance swept across the field, a faint smile broke across his lips. He was observing the antics of about thirty candidates, among whom were some of the finest prospective ball-players in the Suburban League. Roving the center field, Captain Al Wilson held sway. Strong, aggressive, and a consistent hitter, Wilson is a fine fielder and has been responsible for many vic- tories in the past. Also in the outfield, we see two other skillful gardeners , Jim Dolan, a great fly chaser, and Ray Reed, a speed demon on the field. Swinging to the infield the eye catches two new faces, those of Eddie Doyle and Paul Ostrowski. Doyle, a superb fielder and bunter, leisurely snaps a few ground balls at 2nd and flips them over to Ostrowski at first base. Veterans make up the left side of the diamond, with .Jim Murray at shortstop and Roger Barous, a tremendously long ball hitter, at the 3rd base slot. On the pitcher ' s mound, Don Millay and Bill Ronan take the kinks out of their arins. These pitchers have everything necessary for quality: speed, control, and good heads for baseball. Dick Bramley, Bill Beardsell, and Larry Lynch compose the catching staflF; and a great deal of the team ' s success rests squarely on their shoulders. With this array of talent, it was small wonder that Coach Roberts smiled. He was fielding one of the strongest teams in Greater Lawrence. As we go to press, his optimism is being justified by victories. TECH TOURNAMENT For the sixth straight year, Punchard received an invitation to the Eastern Massachusetts Schoolboys ' (Tech) Tournament at Boston Garden. When matched against Sumner High of Holbrook in the Class C quarter finals, our boys were trailing most of the way; however, in the final minutes, when everything seemed hopelessly lost. Bill Stack and Ray Yancy suddenly found new life. With unerring skill and pre- cision, these two sophomores racked in five quick baskets to eke out a slim, one point win, 46 to 45, in the most amazing finish of the entire season. In the semi-finals, the Blue and Gold lost to Provincetown, 53 to 37. Al- though not so exciting as the first tournament game, our smaller but determined Punchard outfit gave the Provincetown sharpshooters a fine display of skill and perseverance. The Punchard lads, well coached throughout the season, battled courageously for the first two periods, but faltered slightly from fatigue in the final stanzas, and jealously sur- rendered their bid to a second tournament championship.

Co-iiicident with the entrance of the class of 1952 into Punchard High School in the fall of 1949, the Student Council, which had been relatively inactive for a long period of time, was re-organized with three of our classmates as charter members. Raeburn Hathaway as Class President served with Janet Thompson and Richard Bramley, who were the Faculty Representatives. This threesome retained membership in the Student Council in similar capacities for the remainder of their high school courses, Richard Bramley serving as treasurer for all three years, and Raeburn Hathaway as President of the Council for the past two. In the Spring of 1951 another key position, Secretary of the Council, was filled by Janet Thomp- son. During the school year 1951-1952 an increased membership from our class represented the various organizations of the school. These were : Charlotte Kelley, Faculty Representative; John Emo Ross, basketball representative; Alan Wilson, football; James Murray, baseball; Robert McCabe, track; Barbara Folley, Class Secretary. As the organization reached ma- turity dining our senior year, many radical changes began to take form. The Constitution was amended, giving track representation in the council for the first time and making necessary the ratification of any amendment by a majority vote of the student body. The council was then authorized by the student body to determine the rate of P. A. A. dues and the ratio of distribution to each organization. A valiant effort to collect these dues followed. At the sug- gestion of the Council, library regulations were liberalized, locker-rooms were refurbished and equipped for greater efficiency, bus transportation to the Small Schools Basketball tournament was arranged, and deserving seniors were exempted from final exams at the discretion of the individual teachers. Conspicuous among the achievements prompted by the Student Council was the painting and improvement in the care of the Girls ' Room, launched by three girls each representing one of the classes. The graduating members of this year ' s Student Council feel that they are leaving behind a Council and Constitution set upon a sound foundation constructed under the guidance and supervision of Mr. Kellmurray, Faculty Advisor. They further prophesy that the pro- minence the Council achieved so recently will last as long as its members continue to have Mr. Howe ' s approval of, and interest in their work.

MERVIN STEVENS, Director lio of us will ever forget that fabulous valley in California where we spent three eventful months. The climate was always sunny and warm; those immense Green N alley vegetables were the best we had eaten; an d life in general was pleasant until the arrival of a certain troublemaker, Tobias J. Everheel. Displaced settlers, driven from neighboring Echo Valley by the rising waters of Everheel ' s dam, were pouring into Green Valley with all their belongings. Things really began to happen, however, when the tractor man. Tinker Smith, uncovered the bones of Eldon ' s ancestors. Suddenly the fuel pump disappeared; Everheel ' s lease was stolen; boundary stakes were moved; and beanstalks grew before our very eyes. Another interesting product of the Valley was Minnie ' s luminous milk which made those who drank it hear weird music and become romantically inclined. The play blossomed with something more than the large and spectacular flowers and vegetables. Ripening to a full bloom at the finish, even though a bit cryptic at first, was the tender bond between Prim (Ruth Belka) and Eldon (Rae Hathaway). A fine romance flourished also between the city-gal, Martha, (Jan Thompson) and the mechanical genius. Tinker, (Cal Hatch). Before sweetness and light triumphed, however, there were fearful and wonder- ful goings-on, what with the risen spirits taking a hand in the proceedings at appropriate intervals. One memorable spirit, who seemed not entirely to have passed over to the Great Beyond, was the worldly Miss Prue (Barbara Folley), still a challenge to any man, dead or alive. Then the lady of the dairy industry (Miriam Deniers), lent a solid, free- enterprise aspect to the occasion, while the deceased but active Grandpaw (Mike Boloian) and Ciranny Berry (Chris Baduvakis) almost stole the show with their antics. All in all, it was a momentous production, one which the cast thoroughly enjoyed presenting, and w liich seemed to please the audience. And it brought forth many hitherto unrevealed talents among our contemporaries. We are indebted to Mr. Stevens for bringing these talents to the fore, and for laboring through long and weary hours of directing the play, and overseeing the many details of production.

Memories Tliis, dear liearts and gcMitle people, is the Melloiv Memory Hour, originating from Station WPHS. Today, our program is dedicated to the Punchard High School Class of ' 52. Yes, the graduation hour is quickly approaching for another group of noble scholars ; and it is at this time that we look back on the past four years with fond memories. Once upon a time, we were nintii-graders, too — and as lively a class as any (a point which, we are sure, the teachers would readily concede). Just to be different — something this class has always enjoyed being — the members decided to hold a combina- tion beach parly and informal dance in June, to replace the lamented prom which had been cancelled. After refreshing dips in the icy water, we had a delicious supper prepared by the male contingent; the picnickers then returned to the gym for the dance. We were not in top condition for such activities, however, since nearly everyone was sporting lobster-red reminders of the sun. Then there was the sterling performance given by our class actors and actresses in The Brewster Boy, presented by the classes of 1951 and 1952. Another big moment in our sophomore year was Punchard ' s first appearance in the Massachusetts High School Drama Festival at Hingham. The superior rating awarded our performance of The Courting of Marie Jenvrin carried with it eligibility to appear in the New England finals at Durham, New Hampshire. What muscles were discovered during the paper drives we held as Juniors! Our treasury realized a very sizeable addition in spite of the drenching rain w hich soaked both the Juniors and the papers during the first drive. Again that year, Punchard participated in an experience which has become familiar to all of the recent P.H.S. classes — the unforgettable Tech Tournament. There, everyone except the players cheered himself into hoarseness and helplessness w hile the boys went into the semi-finals in their usual spectacular fashion. One of our most treasured memories will be that of the Junior-Senior Prom — the evening of June 1, 1951, when the gym was transformed into a place of beauty and festive array. The orchestra, the grand march, the choosing of a Queen of the Prom — all provided an impressive backdrop to w hat is probably our most colorful social occasion. In the last and happiest year at Punchard, we have had many wonderful times together. Those long, exhausting rehearsals for Stunt Night, directed by Barbara Wilson, (a tried and true friend of the class), were not in vain; the show went over with a literal bang. The 1952 Limited was said by many to be the best stunt night ever presented at Punchard. Of course, we had our serious stage offering planned well in advance; and on March 7, with twenty-eight members of the class participating, the Senior play — Green Valley — was performed before a large and apparently completely enthralled audience. We spent many weeks preparing for this unusual comedy-fantasy — difficult weeks they were, too, what with College Boards, basketball tournaments, and other diversions. But we felt amply rewarded when it was all finished, and everyone agreed that it was a massive presentation. Well, folks, our time is slowly running out; so the Melloiv Memory Hour of Station WPHS must sign off. We dedicate this program, modestly and mutually to ourselves. Our memories of the past have been w ell worth cherishing, and w e hope that the future will be as rewarding.

FOOTBALL Although Punchard ' s ootball gladiators managed to salvage only one win in nine games, they had greater ability than the record shows; and with a little more luck they might have won a few more games. At the beginning of the season, the majority of the team was green , with a few veterans interspersed among the newcomers. A great number of serious injuries hampered the development of the team, especially in the quarterback department. Among the valuable players lost for the season through injuries were such stalwarts as Lou Mirisola, Alan Wilson, and Gil Efinger. While the team was unable to pile up an impressive record, there were many players who gained valuable experience for future years. The graduating seniors are: Co-captains Rae Hathaway and Emo Ross, Jim Brown, Bill Beardsell, Sarkis Sarkisian, Bill McKay, Dick Bramley, Bob Henry, Mike Boloian, and John Friel. GIRLS ' BAND I.

Worcester, Mgr. BASKETBALL Our Punchard hoopsters got off to a slow start, losing five of their first eight games — not too bad for a team that had only one regular starter from the 1950-1951 squad. This one starting veteran was Captain James Dolan, a junior this year. The team really began to catch fire at the Swampscott game; and the wins continued until Punchard had a sensational streak of twelve straight victories, the last two occurring at the Small and Medium Schools Tournament in Maiden. During the regular season, we compiled a record of twelve wins and six losses. Our boys, entered in Class B of the Small Schools Tournament, really proved their abihty by defeating Marlboro and Amesbury, with respective scores of 56-49 and 66-60. Punchard lost the final game — a most exciting one — to Barnstable, by a score of 49-48, in the closing seconds of play. Members of the team who will graduate with our class in June are: John Marocco, Jim Murray, Emo Ross, and Alan Wilson. Undergraduate players on the team who will be back for one or more years of varsity basketball are: Jack Carver, Louis Pigeon, Jack Rose, Bill Stack, Tony Sullivan, Paul Whitley, and Ray Yancy. Back row: R. (Jloddy, W. Cushiiian, D. Gordon, C. Simpison, K. Cignoni, B. Roberts, J. Cole, Robert Mclntyre, Coach. Front row: D. Lavigne, G. Brattin, R. Hurley, R. Hathaway, Capt.; J. Laurie, R. McCabe, R. Reed. TRACK With the return of only four lettermen from last year ' s championship team, Coach Mclntyre has been faced witli the task of rebuilding. The four lettermen are Warren Tyler, Bob McCabe, Randy Hurley, and Captain Rae Hathaway. The indoor season and early spring training have brought out several promising boys: Tony Sullivan, Jack Laurie, Don Lavigne, Dan Nadeau, Dave Martin, Dave Gordon, and Lou Mirisola on the ruiming events and Bruce Stewart, Jack Cole, and Ray Yancy in the field events. Track is now firmly established as a major sport at Punchard, is represented on the Student Council this year by Bob McCabe, and should attract many good pro- spects in the seasons ahead. CROSS COUNTRY Punchard had a successful Cross Country team this year, coached by Mr. Mclntyre, who was ably assisted by John Ellis, a practice teacher from Boston University. Into the record went a pair of ties with Phillips Academy, a win over Lawrence High, and a good showing in the Massachusetts State Meet. Warren Tyler and Bob McCabe of our class each won a meet. Charley Simpson finished second for the season, followed by Brook Roberts and Dave Haartz who tied for third place. Russ Johnson and George Brattin battled for fourth. Standing: R. McCabe, R.

Sitting on the corner of the bench was no less a personage than the amiable but stern coach of the Punchard nine, Mr. Roberts. As his glance swept across the field, a faint smile broke across his lips. He was observing the antics of about thirty candidates, among whom were some of the finest prospective ball-players in the Suburban League. Roving the ceiiter field. Captain Al Wilson held sway. Strong, aggressive, and a consistent hitter, Wilson is a fine fielder and has been responsible for many vic- tories in the past. Also in the outfield, we see two other skillful gardeners , Jim Dolan, a great fly chaser, and Ray Reed, a speed demon on the field. Swinging to the infield the eye catches two new faces, those of Eddie Doyle and Paul Ostrowski. Doyle, a superb fielder and bunter, leisurely snaps a few ground balls at 2nd and fiips them over to Ostrowski at first base. Veterans make up the left side of the diamond, with ,Iim Murray at shortstop and Roger Barous, a tremendously long ball hitter, at the 3rd base slot. On the pitcher ' s mound, Don Millay and Bill Ronan take the kinks out of their arms. These pitchers have everything necessary for quality: speed, control, and good heads for baseball. Dick Bramley, Bill Beardsell, and Larry Lynch compose the catching staff; and a great deal of the team ' s success rests sc[uarely on their shoulders. With this array of talent, it was small wonder that Coach Roberts smiled. He was fielding one of the strongest teams in Greater Lawrence. As we go to press, his optimism is being justified by victories. TECH TOURNAMENT For the sixth straight year, Puiu hard received an invitation to the Eastern Massachusetts Schoolboys ' (Tech) Tournament at Boston Garden. When matched against Sumner High of Holbrook in the Class C quarter finals, our boys were trailing most of the way; however, in the final miimtes, when everything seemed hopelessly lost, Bill Stack and Ray Yancy suddenly found new life. ith unerring skill and pre- cision, these two sophomores racked in five quick baskets to eke out a slim, one point win, 46 to 15, in the most amazing finish of the entire season. In the semi-finals, the Blue and Gold lost to Provincetown, 53 to 37. Al- though not so exciting as the first tournament game, our smaller but determined Punchard outfit gave the Provincetown sharpshooters a fine display of skill and perseverance. The Punchard lads, well coached throughout the season, battled courageously for the first two periods, but faltered slightly from fatigue in the final stanzas, and jealously sur- rendered their bid to a second tournament championship.
