And so we present our stage, Reading High School. We are rolling up the fourth wall to reveal the actors and directors, the sets and the scenes which make up the drama, and the humor, and the occasional pathos of another academic year. Come with us through the acts which follow, as we portray our year both on stage and behind the scenes. For us who are seniors these scenes will revive memories of the parts we played at Oglflfe the time we were participants in the perform- ance. Though names and faces may fade from memory, the scenes will always awaken a certain nostalgia. Besides playing our parts as students, many of us took on the added roles of musicians, singers, thespians, class offi- cers, athletes, iournalists - all working together with our producers and directors to make this school year a successful production. This is our year. The curtain will soon be open- ing on our stage - our stage on which every man plays his part. .lechcafion June 1957 brings the retirement of three persons who have contributed a great deal to Reading High School for many years. To them-Mr. Rudolf Sussmann, Principal of Reading High School, Miss Alberta Drury, teacher of bookkeeping, and Mrs. Myrtle Tilton, sec- retary to Mr. Sussmann -we dedicate our 1957 Pioneer. Able, understanding, and highly respected, all have given generously of their knowledge and abilities to many classes of Reading students. To each of them we express our gratitude and our admira- tion, and to each of them go our wishes for a future rich in good health and happiness. MR. RUDOLF SUSSMANN With the close of this academic year, Rudolf Sussmann will retire as Principal of the Reading High School. The Reading School System will be losing a man who has served it in various capacities for a period of forty years. Mr. Sussmann came to Reading in 1917, under the then new Smith-Hughes Act, as a teacher of agricul- tural science and coach of baseball and basketball. A graduate of the University of Connecticut, he con- tinued his studies at Harvard and at Boston University. Under his leadership and direction as Principal, Read- ing High School rapidly gained excellent standing with the colleges, a position which it has maintained suc- cessfully throughout the years. In his work with young people, Mr. Sussmann's aim has been to help all pupils to reach their highest potential in whatever course they pursue, and to encourage them to be decent, intelligent members of the community. He himself has been very active in civic and profes- sional organizations. He is a member of the National Education Association and of the New England Asso- ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools, serving for many years on the accrediting board of the latter. For several years he was secretary of the Harvard Club of Eastern Massachusetts and currently serves on its Committee on Schools. He is a member and past president of the Reading Rotary Club, and a Town Meeting representative. During his years as Principal of the Reading High School, Mr. Sussmann has won the respect of the stu- dent body and of the community. An able administra- tor, he has kept an ever-growing school functioning smoothly and efficiently. A man who understands and likes young people, he has been a wise and friendly counselor. Through his sympathetic and capable super- vision, he has helped to develop many fine teachers on his staff. Through his own diverse interests and extensive reading, he has stimulated an interest in leaming and a pride in scholastic achievement. As he retires, Mr. Sussmann takes with him the sincere admiration, respect, and gratitude of the hundreds of boys and girls, men and women, who have known him not only as an administrator but also as a teacher, adviser, and friend. The staff of the i957 Pioneer ioins them in saluting a memorable and highly capable Director of the action which occurs on our stage, Read- ing High School. To Rudolf Sussmann we respectfully say, Auf wiedersehen, and thank you. 2... pf! 1. ff 1 Y' ff W. ,,.,-f S1 ,wa 4, N, ,... , 'M' + A rw, . Aw. ,,,, .

By administering group and individual tests of learning ability and academic aptitude, academic achievement, vocational aptitude, interest and personality traits, our counselors aid us to decide wisely. We are fortunate each year in having a series of educational and occu- pational conferences led by representatives of schools and institutions of further training, business, industry and labor, and the armed services. Together with the school library, the guidance department makes avail- able to us a wide assortment of educational and occu- pational literature. Mr. Karakashian is well known to Reading students in all schools, as he works with the aptitude and achieve- ment tests, and confers with us on the results. When the iuniors and seniors begin thinking about college, Mr. Mr. Karakashian Miss Nichols 5 1 3 5 , ss i Our lireclfom . . Me jacwgg MR. JOSEPH F. FITZGERALD Mr. Fitzgerald, administrative assistant to Mr. Sussmann, truly seems to be the indispensable man. His continued attention to the numerous problems of administration of our school and his help and counsel to the individual students have been appre- ciated by all of us. Certainly every student has benefited either directly or indirectly from his friendly guidance and consideration. Baker keeps us posted with college bulletins and inter- views, helping us decide and plan our future careers. Miss Nichols, our Dean of Girls, advises the younger girls and keeps the attendance records of all girls. ln addition, every one of us appreciates all she does to make our social affairs a success. We are very fortunate to have such competent and conscientious counselors to help us plan our courses while in high school and to advise and guide us in our choice of a vocation or of an institution for more advanced education. Probably none of us will realize until later in life how valuable their contributions have been. lt is obvious, however, that the best guidance and the most conscientious counseling would be of little value to any student unless the school offered a cur- riculum of sufficient caliber and scope to prepare him properly for his future role. We at Reading High are fortunate to have the combined advantages of competent guidance and a well-rounded course of study. Mr. Baker cz l!l:5l:l'Lg ow agoulf cowrenlf Programa 6ll'LJ!fLflfl,I 8 P0 85 . . Reading High School offers a comprehensive curricu- lum designed to prepare its graduates for life beyond the high school period. At the same time it trains its pupils in the principles of American democracy and provides them with an opportunity to become more efficient citizens. The school's underlying philosophy of Quality not Quantity results in a high standard of education that meets the requirements of all types of advanced educational institutions as well as of pro- spective employers. To accommodate the needs, abilities, and objectives of each individual, the curriculum of Reading High offers five principal courses of study. For the conscientious student of good ability planning to enter college there is the College Preparatory Course. This course includes those subiects necessary to fulfill the requirements of students preparing for liberal arts or iunior colleges, technical or engineering schools, teachers colleges, or nursing schools. Among the subiects available to meet the prescribed require- ments of most colleges are the history courses, ranging from civics in the freshman year to U. S. History in the senior year, the four-year English course building skills in two of the three R's , the mathematics courses, including everything from fundamental arithmetic to Math C. P. 3, the foreign language courses, offering Latin, French and Spanish, the science courses, including general science, biology, chemistry, physics, and anat- omy. From these various courses the student elects those necessary for his college entrance. Moreover, the fact that Reading High School is a member of the New England Association of Colleges and has an A classification among schools aids our graduates in gain- ing admission to schools of higher learning. Training for positions in business is part of the curricu- lum of the Commercial Course. Some students taking this course also go on to further study at commercial schools or secretarial schools, although many obtain good iobs directly after graduation. The commercial program offers stenography, bookkeeping, typing, and experience with business machines. At RHS, students are given the opportunity to put their knowledge to practical use, for majors in business do secretarial work for each department. ln the course in Home Economics, girls gain an under- standing of the management of home life. They acquire knowledge and experience in the fields of nutrition, child care, household management, fashion and design, cooking, and sewing. The presentation of a fashion show in the spring gives the girls an opportunity to display their accomplishments to an envious audience. As the Home Economics course trains girls for the future, so the Industrial Arts program trains boys. Through this course, boys gain expert know-how in the fields of mechanical drawing, woodworking, metal work, and automotive mechanics. Our well-equipped shops allow for the inside application of outside opportunities. The course in Fine Arts centers around the study of music and art. Training in the fundamentals is given to those students who will further their study at a higher institution in preparation for a future vocation in music or art. Furthermore, both courses provide an outlet for self-expression and for the creative imagination of any student who wishes to elect them. We should well be proud that Reading High School strives to maintain a high standard of scholarship and education by offering a curriculum of varied courses along with a strong faculty of skilled and competent teachers, for the net result is the production of a better pupil and graduate.

Three straight victories climaxed a series of nine well-played games by our Reading High football squad. Led by our spirited captain, Bob White, the Rockets displayed not only their sound gridiron sense, but also their customary good sportsmanship. Reading's Rocket of victory was slightly hindered in its take-off during the first game with Wakefield, where our team was shaded by a score of 8-7. However, after practice runs with Concord and Bel- mont, where RHS secured only a tie, the Rockets under full power seared the Methuen Badgers l8-O. Due to the fleetfootedness of halfbacks Eddie Wen- dell, Joe Long, Ronnie Beighley and full- back Bob White, the Rockets' ultimate vic- tory was assured in the early stages of the game. Ronnie Beighley's sixty-yard run sparked our squad in their next venture, a victory over Melrose. Throughout the contest, the offensive and defensive plays of Ed Don- ley, Don Tompkins and Peter Stevenson proved to be an asset to our team. Not wanting to break out of this winning groove, Bob White streaked sixty yards for a touchdown in the next game, against the Lexington Minute Men. Skip Rooney, Billy Tilley, and Herb Batchelder showed Lexington that they weren't taking a back seat as far as defensive abilities were concerned. All three disrupted the Lexing- ton line by their alert blocks and timely defensive tackles. To lace up the season the Rockets came up with a 7-6 victory over Stoneham in the Thanksgiving Day game. Ronnie Deferrari, with his first period touchdown, and Jack Conway, with his ever-faithful toe, clinched the game. Throughout the season Coach Hollingsworth was well pleased with the drive and spirit of his team. No boys anywhere in the U. S. A. have RCLJJ, QOCLQLS, Ha in . l better appetites than our Reading High football squad. This fact was demonstrated at the annual football banquet, where our boys tackled over ninety pounds of food. The highest honors at the banquet went to Bob White, who received the Ingersoll Award. Ends Ed Donley and Skip Rooney were also among the honored players, as they tied for the Most Improved Player Award. Following a brief ceremony, the coaches awarded letters to the Varsity and Junior Varsity Squads. To close the evening Mr. Hollingsworth announced that Dennis McCauley and Ron Beighley had been elected co-captains for l957.

We all look forward to the enioyment and excitement of going to the football games on Satur- day afternoons to cheer for our team. But the action taking place out on the field does not constitute all that the word foot- ball connotes. Even in football there is a bit of pageantry. A big football game between rivals is comparable to the open- ing of a much-publicized new play. Both are alike in many respects. Each is a form of entertainment with its own color and tradition. Each has many people, other than the principal players, working together to present a successful program. Each requires an interested and responsive audience. CHEERLEADERS Left to right: Bonnie Sanborn, Carolyn Sharp, Brenda Crovo, Shirley Smith, Marcia Johnson, Janice Kimball, Barbara Bellows, Ellen Partelow, Ann McManus. Centerx Carol Oldenbrook, Head Cheerleader Some of the colorful football traditions that we realize at the games are the standing for the national anthem and for the kick-off, the pre-game huddle, the entertainment during the half-period, the tearing down of the goal posts, and the victory march. The large yellow mums, the confetti, the school colors, all add gaiety and meaning to the scene. Various groups, each doing its particular iob, work to put on the football show. Our energetic cheerleaders, sparkling in their navy and red outfits, shout their many cheers to pep up the fans and spur on the Rockets. Because of their great enthusi- asm for the sport, they never tire of prac- ticing new and lively cheers.

One sure-fire hit is their new cheer, the Ala- bammy Cheer, which everyone knows and shouts. There are the friendly ticket sellers from whom we purchase our tickets. These nine girls have the responsible iob of handling the money, which involves quick mental addition and subtraction in returning the correct change. They also collect the tickets at the gates. And what would a game be without the rhythmic marching and twirling of our own Rockettes , the baton squad? All the girls work hard daily mastering new and intricate routines. When they appear on the field in their smart and colorful uni- forms, we see only a finished performance of flawless precision. Dressed in attractive black and red outfits, the program girls try to catch us and per- haps induce us to buy a program with any loose change we may happen to have handy. There goes that hot dog! At least we're supporting the Boosters Club! May- be we can still figure out who's playing, even though the program has the players numbered wrong. cf vvivx .

Conscientious work on the part of all the members and the director by means of daily practices on new music has shown outstanding results. The recent addition of white bucks to complete and accent their black and red uniforms is an effec- tive touch. All these groups find their reward for hard work in the thrill that comes from being a part of the big event . They receive their praise from those they please. They win honor from those, perhaps strangers, who applaud them as impres- sive examples ot, and credits to, their school and community. -sr ,.., S' Excitement for our football queen, Pat Walsh.

Although the sun managed to shine on only one meet, the boys' spirits were not dampened at the other meets. Led by their driving captain, George Burns, the determined group of twenty-five boys emerged victorious in four out of six impressive inter-school meets. These contests gave the team rewarding experience and added determination to win for their school in the bigger meets at the end of the season. ln these larger contests the RHS team ran against teams from several schools at a time instead of individual schools as they had done previously. The first contest of this type was the Middlesex League's Pilgrim Division Meet at Essex Agricultural School, October l8, l956. ln this meet, the Varsity and Junior Varsity competed separately.

The Junior Varsity finished an impressive third in the contest in which they participated. Thomas Beighley and Richard Pierce were Reading's highest placers, captur- ing the fifteenth and sixteenth spots. The next meet, at Tufts College on October 26, l956, was the Middlesex League Meet. Again Fred Bertelson and George Burns were the first across the finish line for the Varsity finishing thirtieth and thirty-fifth. The Varsity squad finished ninth in this meet, and they competed against fifteen other teams. For the Junior Varsity, Richard Pierce led the way for the team by coming in twenty-seventh. The next Reading man to cross the line was James Peterson, who finished fifty-ninth. ln the final tally, the Jayvees held the eighth position and had competed against I4 other schools. The most important of all the contests was the State Meet at White Memorial Stadium in Boston. Reading's boys ran in Class C and finished seventh against thirteen other schools. For this meet and also for the other two League meets, many of the team members earned ribbons for their scores. Long hours of practice under the direction of Coach Aldrich enabled the team members to meet their opponents with confidence in being able to give a good showing for their school. During these valuable practice sessions, Richard and Paul Turner, student managers, were always on hand to aid the team in any way that they could. The drive, determination, and unfailing spirit of the coach, managers, and especially the team members made this one of the most successful cross country teams in the history of Reading High School. Setting off on a practice run. Here we are, ready for fun... lil Qf5A,lfVL6LlfL 310060 At 8:00 on October 25, 1956, the Freshmen attended their first dance at Reading High School. Amid the leaves, cornstalks and pumpkins, traditional of the autumn season, the Freshmen enioyed everything from the waltz to the bunny hop. Bob Phinney, a popular man at the high school, was the disc jockey for this momentous evening, and the parents of the class officers served as chaperons. Several of the more clever couples were awarded prizes for their dancing. Of course, the essence of any party is refreshments and this dance was no exception. For about fifteen minutes, the food and latest gossip were digested. As the hour drew near eleven and happy people sauntered in a leisurely fashion out of the front door, all the ambitious people who helped perfect this dance really had a good reason to feel proud and satisfied. Their long hours of work were rewarded by the knowledge that every- one had enioyed himself. g ,HW l X 'u 'X .X X Y ll' 'lt ,l'l l'l,,Lfl' il- TQ'lf'1.1f,!1 K ' -1 Q food . . . and frolic at our first high school dance. i ,ffm 2 y il!

NSZIO 0lf1fL0l Q 0,0 On the evening of November 9, 1956, the cafeteria, bedecked wtih huge colored bal- loons, blue and white streamers, and laughing clowns, took on the gay carnival atmosphere of New Orleans at Mardi Gras time. Eye- catching posters by the Publicity Committee, helped make this dance the well-attended affair that it was. The many sophomores, invited to dance by the smooth music of William Strachan's orchestra, happily crowded the floor, and later, when intermission time rolled around, they did full iustice to the delicious refreshments served by the Refreshment Committee. The awarding of two popular records as door prizes provided a fitting climax to a memorable evening of fun and dancing. Robert Burpee's efficient handling of the ticket arrangements and publicity, and the imagina- tive trappings put up by the Decorations Com- mittee, headed by Ellen Perry, contributed towards the success of this affair. And the advice, encouragement, and the occasional prodding of Miss Chiesa and Miss Morris, the class advisers, helped to make this Sophomore Hop one of the most enjoyable and memorable ever held. Plenty of comedy, but no tragedy here. . .k,Qh. . ,Y-:Y Q ,WW A pleasant welcome sets the pace for the evening.

Adforg On September 5, 1956, the Class of 1960 entered the high school as freshmen. We were told to go to the auditorium, where Mr. Sussmann introduced us to the school, its rules and regulations, and told us what was expected of us now that we were in high school. The handbooks that were given to help us locate our classes aided us somewhat, but for a week or so many lost freshmen wandered about the big school. We quickly became adiusted to the new routine, however, and were soon going around the building like veterans. Shortly after school began we elected our class offi- cers: Clifford Ash, president, Eileen March, vice-presi- dent, Judith Archibald, secretary, and Robert Living- ston, treasurer. After electing our grade officers, we elected Student Council representatives in the homerooms. Our Freshman Frolic was held on October 26th and was very well attended. All the committees under the supervision of our class advisers, Miss White and Miss Austin, worked very hard to make the dance a success. The music was supplied by Bob Phinney, and the decor- ations were a combination of Halloween and Autumn scenes. Refreshments consisting of coke and cookies were enioyed by everyone. On November l0th the school had a successful drive for the Foreign Student Exchange program. We did our part with a number of freshmen taking part in the canvass for funds. Also in the fall we had a freshman football team coached by Mr. Pacino. Although the boys didn't have too much chance to prove what they could do, they show promise of bigger and better things in the next few years. At the end of the football season the girls got together and decided that our teams should have some cheer- leaders to spur them on. With the help of Miss Nichols, sixty girls practiced for the tryouts, and the ten finally selected added a great deal of pep to our freshman basketball team. ln January we started cramming for our first experience with mid-years. lt was a case of blood, sweat, and tears, but we managed to live through it. Mr. Webber organized a freshman baseball team and had a great many freshmen boys trying out for the team. Our first year in high school was a good one. We are all looking forward to our sophomore year with great enthusiasm, but we will always remember the good times we had as freshmen.

The dramatic highlight on our stage this year was the presentation on November I6 and I7 of the senior class spectacular, Stage Door, by Edna Ferber and George S. Kaufman. This production had the dis- tinction of having a larger cast than any other senior play in years - thirty talented thespians, to be exact. The finished performance of our hilarious comedy reflected the hours of rehearsal by the cast and the capable direction of Mr. Spencer. The large audi- ences which attended demonstrated by their laughter and applause that they thoroughly enioyed the por- trayal of a group of struggling young actresses and their associates. Taking place in the Footlights Club somewhere in the West Fifties of New York, Stage Door brings to light in an extremely amusing fashion the manner in which different individuals react to their respective successes or disappointments in life. The student directors, the properties and technical crew, and the large number of students who served on the committees contributed immeasurably to the success of the production. Certainly the entire Class of I957 can take pride in this excellent portrayal which we will remember always as one of the outstanding scenes in our progress across the stage of our senior year.

CHEERLEADERS DANCE After cheering our football team into third place in Middlesex League, we still had plenty of spirit left over for the annual Cheer- leaders Dance, held on Friday evening, November 30, at the high school. The decorations, representing different school groups such as the Baton Squad, the Cheerleaders, and the Football Squad, brightened the cafeteria and fitted in perfectly with the autumn season. After an hour or two of dancing to the smooth music of Doug Morley, the dancers found a welcome rest in the entertainment and refresh- ments. Such celebrities as Steve Zeoli, the Cheerleaders, Brenda Crovo, and the trio of Janet Lundberg, Martha Russell, and Lorraine Horn once more revealed their talents. Carolyn Sharp presented gifts to Miss Nichols, Dean of Girls, and to Carol Oldenbrook, the head cheerleader. Bob White then had the pleasure of presenting flowers to the football queen, Pat Walsh. Sitting and chatting were as much a part of this dance as the danc- ing itself, and many couples could be found on the sidelines watch- ing others whirl around the floor. At the bewitching hour, l2:OO, the couples dispersed, and the cafeteria again became quiet. Although the decorations are down now, and the music has stopped memories of this first big dance of the year will last for many years. I L. .

The lack of consistently scoring forwards and the lack of height were Coach Hollings- worth's main problems. Although the Rockets were fast and well-balanced defensively, the overall depth and height of the opposition proved fatal in many closely contested games. Graduation left only three varsity lettermen returning this season, thus the squad was made up of inexperienced iunior varsity players. Reading's five met a strong North Andover team on December 14 and bowed by a seven-point margin. However, this game gave the Rockets valuable confi- dence and proved that they could play together as a team. The second game of the season found Reading victorious over a Weston squad. Ken Livingston was the big man for Reading, scoring twenty points. ln the next game the Peabody Tanners invaded the RHS gymnasium and won a 51-47 thriller. The Rockets were in the game until the closing minute, when a faulty pass proved fatal. With these three pre-season games Coach Hollingsworth and the boys felt ready to open the Middlesex League against Stoneham on December 28. The Reading five started the season with three deci- sive victories against Stoneham, Concord, and Wake- field. Co-captains Maxwell and Livingston shared scoring honors in the early games, while Woody Hayes was outstanding on defense. The next game, played against strong Winchester, was close until the fourth quarter, when the Sachems pulled away. Reading followed with a staggering victory over Melrose, only to turn around and lose to Belmont. These three games were marked by Bob SnelIing's appearance in the starting lineup. His hustle put new life into the Rockets for the second half of the season. Reading opened the second half with a victory over a much-improved Stoneham team. The set-shooting of Woody Hayes was the determining factor in Read- ing's surge. During the next few games, however, the team had its worst losing streak of the season, dropping three games to Concord, Wakefield, and Winchester. These losses were mainly due to the terrific forty-plus shooting percentage of the opposi- tion. Reading came out of its slump by handing Mel- rose its worst drubbing of the season. Ken Livingston was top man in this contest, with twenty-three points. The Rockets ended the season with a stunning defen- sive performance against Lexington. The All-Star game was the termination of the careers of Maxwell, Livingston, and Hayes. These boys totaled almost half the team's points against the co-cham- pions. In addition, Allen Maxwell won the Middlesex League foul-shooting contest with a fifteen-for-fifteen performance. 3' 5, 'G ai' 8 sjf -I. rlif.

Led by the captain, Mary Chisholm, the girls basketball team met their first opponent, Lexington, on January 3. Although the team did not win the game, proof of increased skill over last year was shown by the fact that the teams were tied all the way through the first quarter and the game ended with the score 36-27. During the game with Wakefield, excellent shooting and guarding put the team ahead at first, and brought a good comeback in the last quarter. How- ever, the comeback proved to be iust a little too late and Reading was defeated 48-4l. The highlights of the season were the games with Revere and Punchard, in which the girls rallied from former defeats and won for the first time in several years. The Revere game proved to be an excellent example of the coordination and skill of the team, and the game ended with a victory of 4l-26. Shortly after this game the team met Pun- chard and scored the second victory of the season. The most suspenseful and exciting game was the contest with Woburn. During this game Reading was leading until the last of the third quarter, when Woburn forged ahead to win by only one point, with a final score of 35-34. The season was particularly thrilling this year not only because of the victories but also because of the fact that for the first time iackets were awarded to seniors who had earned three letters.

How could one forget our first year, as reluctantly but proudly we took our first look at high school life and received our class numerals which we shall bear throughout our years in high school? In the fall of l956, we entered the ever-inviting, ever- open doors of Reading High School, not as strangers, but as familiar and friendly associates eager to con- tinue where we had left off in our search for expe- rience and knowledge. We were not frightened as we were in our previous year, but we had a feeling of successful accomplishment in that we had completed one year and were to begin a new year with old friends. Most of our privileges were increased and our responsibilities broadened, to give us challenges to overcome. lt did not take us long to put our wheels of progress in action. We elected class officers: Robert Burpee, president, Peter Stevenson, vice-president, Mary Ellen Sias, secretary, and Kenneth Mullen, treasurer. With our homeroom representatives and our capable class advisers, Miss Chiesa and Miss Morris, we were ready to plan our year's activities. Our first undertaking was the traditional class dance, the Sophomore Hop. Our committees worked hard in preparation for the dance, and their efforts were richly rewarded by its success and the enioyment shared by all. Another phase of our experience this year was the support our class gave to the school's teams, not only by the participation of the boys, but also by the aid we gave to the band and baton squad. We are proud of our accomplishments in this field. As we look back upon this year, we cannot help smil- ing to think of some of the many funny incidents we have all experienced at some time. lf we look back farther, we can remember the fun we had on the field, in the gym, or in one of our classes. Our memory might even carry us deeper to the basic reason for which we are here, to gain knowledge and experience. For this reason we expectantly await next fall when we will be older and wiser and, we hope, even more able to continue toward our goal, graduation.

Reading's hitting prowess was evident as the Rockets ran up scores of 25-3 over both Melrose and Belmont. Only three vet- erans of the '56 varsity are returning this year, and they should prove to be the mainstays of the team. However, no shortage of ability is evident, as last year's promising Junior Varsity team will supply the needed manpower. Reading can look forward to a good season.

Their schedule will include not only those schools which competed against Reading last year, but also Stoneham and Lexington.

Information on which these discussions are based is drawn from appropriate periodicals and references available in the school libraries and from other sources of comparable weight.

A maior proiect of the Science Club this year was the building of a receiver to match the transmitter given to the school by Northeast Airlines. The club, which holds semi-monthly meetings, is advised by Mr. Pope. Through the club program, students interested in science have an opportunity to work on individual proiects under adult supervision. One of the chief aims of the organization is to stimulate interest in science. Officers of the group are Spencer Stewart, president, John Greene, vice-president, Reginald Peters, secretary, and Brad Smith, treasurer. Under their leadership the club has enioyed a busy and profitable year. in many cfimrenf The Proiection Crew was organized this year with the following officers: Henry Bolton, president, Jon Olson, vice-president, Philip Congdon, secretary. Throughout the year this group contributed their services in setting up, operating, moving, and cleaning all the equipment used in our audio-visual program. Few people appre- ciate the amount of time that this work consumes. All L ssx- of us see and benefit from the results, but are too often unaware of the preparation and maintenance that they entail. The members of the Proiection Crew pro- vide an excellent example of the unselfish giving of valuable time for the good of the entire school. Their activities are under the able direction of Mr. Bronner. PROJECTION CREW Front row, left to right: Kenneth Myhre, John Schmidt.

These typists do a certain amount of secretarial work for the busy teachers, and the teachers in turn evaluate the students' work for marking purposes. Each qualified student is assigned to a teacher for the If 0 ing sports: basketball, tennis, archery, and softball.

Waist ROCKET HI-LITES Welding together the diversified activities of Reading High School, the Rocket Hi-Lifes makes the student body conscious of itself as a solid unit. School spirit, that feeling of oneness or ourness, is developed to the fullest as the newspaper presents an overall picture of school life and recognizes the achievements of individuals. Originated primarily as a service enterprise, Hi-Lites also makes a very real con- tribution to its own staff members by giving them an oppor- tunity to learn the fundamentals of newspaper work. With Miss Updike and Mr. Robinson advising, Linda Chesley, editor-in-chief, and her associate editors, Sandra Oliver, Charles Bent, and Annda Witherall, have invariably suc- ceeded in meeting their deadline with a paper that is informative, stimulating, and very readable.

Starting early in the fall, the various groups which were selected to create the i957 Pioneer tackled their respective tasks under the direction of our faculty advisers - Miss Shay, Miss Roy, Mr. Hanlon, and Miss Alden. With the admonition that March first was our deadline, we plunged into our various assignments recognizing our inexperience and aware of the many hours of work that lay before us as we set out to record our year. The first joint proiect for the four editors was the selection of a theme and the preparation of the dummy layout, or skeleton around which the body to V7 X! fs of the book would be built. With this as a guide, the Editorial Staff proceeded to write copy, cutlines, and captions which were ultimately edited and accepted. These were passed on to the capable Typing Staff, who transcribed the multitude of words into suitable copy for the printer. One assignment which always produces interesting material was performed by our largest group, the Profile Staff. This consists of assem- bling and composing those intimate details about each member of the senior class which appear as biographi- PROFILE STAFF Seated, left to right: Patricia Comstock, Ruthann Sullivan, Allan Castine, Stephen Zeoli, Sandra Oliver and George Drury, co-editors, Edward Donley, Marcia Johnson, Gail Emerson, Judith Wilkinson.

Another busy group was comprised of the energetic salesmen who make Pioneer yet produced. All of this ettort would be to little avail were it not for the work of the Ciruclation up the Business Stott. These boys and girls solicited the merchants and industrial concerns throughout our area for advertisements, with excellent results and much-needed financial assistance. With all this mate- rial, the Art Staff was faced with the formidable task. of assembling, arranging, and rearranging until the desired result was obtained, namely, an attractive and artistic layout of each page to achieve the best Staff and Homeroom Collectors. By securing advance sales, the collectors enabled us to achieve our ultimate goal of placing the book in the hands of as many students as possible. So, when the i957 Pioneer was finally put to bed, we could all look back on a work which we hope will result in a definite contribution to the lives of our stu- dents and to our community. 5- ,. xii ' t af WL 61,68 01,5 61,5 we I9 dy 0lfLI 6l,l t:5 . . : 'QS N . wg---xxx... -A W.. l- .41 is O X .Q,.,'1 D03 N 'Y in 4 1 :' M HS 5 31 .

As more seasoned pilots of our craft, we adiusted with eager determination to our new position, for we real- ized that difficult decisions as well as many new oppor- tunities awaited us. Thoughts of college, of a career, or of that first try at college board exams were in our minds. Yes, this was to be a most important year. During the crisp, cool days of autumn we settled down to diligent study and proceeded to elect our class' offi- cers: Kenneth Faulkner, president, Joann lvester, vice- president, Maria Galante, secretary, and Richard Dingwell, treasurer. Sportswise, the football team, strengthened by the valuable aid of many iunior boys, again proved to be the center of attraction. Saturday afternoons often found us cold but loyal backers of our team. Early in November, many iuniors took part in a town- wide drive for funds to aid the Foreign Student Exchange Program. This drive had special significance for us, as one member of our class was selected to take part in the Summer Program under the direction of the American Field Service. Almost overnight our ship had passed into the white realm of winter. Although we were old-timers on the subiect, midyears brought the usual worries to climax a half-year of concentrated study. Members of the iunior class again added much talent and spirit to successful seasons in winter and spring sports, while dramatic interest and ability in some of us was discovered and developed when Reading played host to the Massachusetts Drama Festival in March. Then came into sudden view that long awaited and dreamed-of event, the Junior Prom. Many ambitious and efficient committees worked long hours to fulfill all expectations of a memorable evening. It was only a matter of days before our other top social event, the Junior-Senior Reception was upon us. More planning and hard work made our graduation gift to the seniors another night to remember. Graduation Day is over, and we now find that we are the leaders of the school. Our rocket ship is prepared with the solid experience of three wonderful high school years behind us to reach even greater heights as seniors. Only one more year remains in which to accomplish all that we have set out to do and to com- plete our plans for the future. What is our destination? Who knows? Maybe even the moon!

As we looked back, it seemed hardly possible that this was our final year of school. We had, after twelve years, gained the last plateau. When we think back over our three memorable years at Reading High, there is so much to remember. Sep- tember 1954 opened our very first year of high school, and we were in a newly constructed building. How wonderful it was to think that we entered as sopho- mores - never lowly freshmen. Even more wonderful - we knew that we weren't the only ones who needed a map to find our way around. Everyone else was iust as confused and lost as we were. As the rooms at last began to settle down and stay in one place and we gradually got into the routine of studying again, our first obiective was the election of officers: Richard DeLong, president, Peter Bergholtz, vice- president, Cornelia Whitten, secretary, and Edward Donley, treasurer. The big social event of the year for us was the Sopho- more Hop. Later we were active participants in the Drama Festival held at Reading in March. Our sopho- more year was truly a year to be remembered, and not the least of the reasons was our first long exams. The second year in our high school career began when we returned as iuniors, more sure of ourselves and of the ways of the school. Election of officers gave us two new leaders in Stephen Zeoli, vice-president, and enior Cfcwri Adfory Carol Byrne, secretary, who, together with Richard DeLong and Edward Donley, remained our class officers throughout the rest of our high school days. Early in the year, members of our class took part in the Senior Play and later were among the members of the cast of the one-act play which was chosen to represent our school in the Drama Festival. As the last and most exciting part of our iunior year rolled around, it brought with it the big event of the year - the Junior Prom - a cherished memory of our days at RHS. Crowding close upon the Junior Prom was our gift to the graduating class-the Junior-Senior Reception. As September I956 slipped quickly into sight, there came that sudden recognition that this would be our senior year - our very last at Reading High - grad- uation year. We entered this last year with a deter- mination that it would be not only our last but also our most successful. The football season, with Bob White as our captain, found most of our class participating in one way or another: as members of the football squad, the cheer- leaders, the band, the baton squad, the program girls, the ticket sellers, or as enthusiastically cheering spec- tators. A fair share of wins and losses made Saturday night beans more palatable, and a triumphant Thanks- giving Day game with Stoneham added grandeur to the turkey and spice to the pumpkin pie. Pat Walsh, our football queen, charmingly reigned over the Cheer- leaders Dance on November 30. A capacity crowd danced to sweet music and the evening was enlivened by the entertainment provided by talented members of our own class and by the cheerleaders. On November l6 and l7 a comedy, Stage Door, presented by the Senior Class with a record cast of thirty, revealed much heretofore undiscovered talent in what we felt was the most successful Senior Play ever. In December a tea given by the home economics classes for the senior girls warmed our hearts and for a short while took our minds off approaching mid- year exams. Frantic studying in preparation for these exams left little time for anything else. Soon a second series of College Board classes began - this time for the achievement tests not far in the future. If for nothing else, the girls' basketball team of l957 should go down in history for winning the first game in four years. Even though this was not the year for our boys' basketball team to set the world on fire, the unfiagging enthusiasm of loyal rooters never faltered. As we progressed through the year and finally into spring, the sports program included baseball, golf, and track for the boys, and for the girls tennis, archery, and softball. We were pleased and proud to know that the Regional Drama Festival was again being held at Reading High and that we would be given the opportunity to play host once more. ninefeen Aunalrec! ancfgny-:Seven Another maior senior activity brought the mad scramble to meet deadlines for Pioneer pictures, profiles, final copy, and layout, and left us wondering how we could ever have done it on time. With a sudden awareness, we realized that the last exciting days of our high school career were upon us. Relatively unimportant things such as having measure- ments taken and signing names assumed greater pro- portions when applied to caps and gowns and the all-important diplomas. ln happy anticipation of the long-awaited Senior Prom, we worked hard at decora- tions, refreshments, entertainment, and all the other tasks that a successful dance entails. Baccalaureate, a solemn occasion, Class Day and Senior Banquet, final opportunities for light-hearted gatherings as a class, led us to The Day of Days - Graduation. With Graduation we know that a milestone in our lives has been passed. From here we will go to colleges, vocational schools, and iobs. No longer will there be the safe, well-known class- rooms to return to, but we will always have the warm and happy memories of days spent there. These we can always recall as, with high school behind us and armed with the educational results of our own and our teachers' efforts, we face the new, exciting, yet awe- inspiring future. fig, is 'A A .n , A . --34, ' v- , i i S. 82 CHARLOTTE ANN PUTNAM We seniors have many happy memories of Charlotte . . .
