JU' f L5 OP? On September l9, l955, we freshmen, the Class of l959, nervously filed into the school auditorium to be introduced to our homeroom teachers and to the school in general. Tensely we waited for the time when our names would be called, and we would go to our new homerooms. ln homerooms we were handed maps and a booklet that was supposed to tell us how to get around. Nevertheless, during the whole first week bewildered freshmen wandered around the school looking for classrooms and getting acquainted. On September 27, l955, the first Student Council meeting was held. The freshmen members are Laurel Calvin, Ronald Chess, William Herrick, Bruce Latham, Kenneth Mullen, Richard Gallagher, Betsy Smith, Linda Stott, and Mary Ellen Sias. The Freshman Frolic, our first high-school dance, was held on October 22, 1955, in the school cafeteria. The music was supplied by Bill Phinney, and the cafeteria was decorated with pumpkins and autumn leaves cut out of colored paper. ln the fall, one of the main activities of the freshman class was the freshman football team, which consisted of thirty-four boys under the instruction of Coach Pacino. Also in the fall we freshmen elected our class officers. They are as follows: president, Robert Burpee, vice-president, Fred Squire, secretary, Mary Ellen Sias, and treasurer, Kenneth Mullen. One of the new experiences we had was mid-year and final exams, which kept the whole school studying like mad for almost a week. When the Shares in Democracy campaign came along in January, the freshmen gladly contributed their bit. Although none of the freshman homerooms sold the most shares, we still did an excellent iob. The leading freshman homerooms were Room l 27 with fifty-four shares, Room 3 with thirty shares, Room 5 with twenty- seven shares, and Room 6 with twenty-four shares. At the beginning of the basketball season the regular cheerleaders, Miss Nichols, and the freshman members of the Student Council elected the freshman cheerleaders from the fifty girls who tried out. In March the freshman basketball team ran up quite a record of victories in the Eastern Massachusetts Junior Headmasters' Tournament at the Boston Garden. Although the team was finally stopped by Natick in the semi-finals, it made an outstanding showing. The Class of l959 has enjoyed an excellent year, and we are looking forward to entering the ranks of sophomores next September. 26
