We realized the hours of hard work that were ahead of us, but nevertheless we earnestly accustomed our- selves to our classroom routines like good little freshmen. We elected our cabinet members who set off with their best foot forward in student gov- ernment. In our talent assembly Bill Connors flashed on his pathway to stardom as did the rest of the performers in that first of our many memorable shows. Class elections made Sally Jennings presi- dent, Austin George, vice-president, Sue God- frey, secretary, and joan Kovacs, treasurer. Then before settling down to the task of studying for our first final exams, we enjoyed ourselves at the Freshman Party. FRESHMAN CABINET Seated: Maura Murphy, Sheila Case, Sue Godfrey, Bill Conners. Standing: Ed Wakeman, John Hatch, Mr. Duso, adviser, Paul Greenawalt, Tryg Sandberg. In our sophomore year our star waxed larger and brighter. We looked forward to the arrival of the new freshmen with malicious intent- eager to show our superiority. We elected Fred Rehl, president, Joan Kovacs, vice-president, Sue Godfrey, secretary, and Janey Brainerd, treasurer. Eagerly we awaited the coming of the social season. This was the year that we inaugurated the Sweetheart Swing, a dance which has be- come traditional to the sophomores. The performances of the sophomore play, The Patched Coat, and our talent assembly proved that some stars in our midst were well on their way to becoming Thespians. During the year inter-class and varsity sports were claiming rnuch of our time, and at the Girls' Banquet our outstanding athlete, Phyllis Campbell, made history in R.LH.S. by being the first girl to win her sweater in the sophomore year.

Yeari' Ago. 45 The girls' varsity basketball team defeated the women of the faculty Cin an overtime periodb. Interested members of the Student Congress formed a very important steering committee for our first Student-Faculty Day and had members of each class elected to the Board of Education. A, George, S. Jennings, and J. Kovacs repre- sented juniors on the Steering Committee. Before we realized it our Class dance, The Rabbit Drag, was just a hazy blur of Easter eggs and cotton tails, and our next and most impor- tant dance, with Dick Mount as chairman, had to be planned. Midst decorations of flowers, streamers, and balloons, starry-eyed couples danced at what we thought was the best prom ever! After three years of being little chips off planets we finally became full-fledged stars- ready to be looked up to by everyone, especially the freshmen, who, by the way, seemed smaller than ever this year. The advertising for the Shoeless Shag, given by the Senior Council, was the most original we had ever seen- And remember the superb entertainment given by the faculty at this unusual dance? CWe all had loads of fun making ourselves right at home, and for once no one went home with sore feet.7 ms li' Do you have a date for the Hop? This was the first question in every Conversation before the annual pre-Thanksgiving Day dance at the Ritz. Loads of people were there and were pleasantly shocked when our co-captain, Fred Rehl, and Margie Behm won the autographed football doorprizes. What a Life! That was just the way everyone felt the night of dress reeharsal before the Komian play. The play was a tremendous hit with these stars repreesnting our class: Eleanor Bruchalski, Rena Civkin, Bill Firisin, and Paige Hoyt. Will anyone ever forget those inspiring moments in Chemistry lab when we all dreamed of becoming Priestleys, Daltons, and Madame Cuties? The Senior Assembly was a four-star show with our barber shop quartet singing Daddy Get Your Baby Out of Jailfi BARBER SHOP QUARTET Bob Lieberum, Fred Rehl, Bill Potter, Bill Firisin.

The team was the most erratic in many years. For example, early in the year Central defeated us by one point, 56-55, in Fairfield, while in the Armory they trounced us by 58 points. Harding ran up an 80-50 victory in the East Side Gym, while they were extended to the final two minutes before wrapping up a 57-50 decision at Mill Plain. Greenwich defeated us at home and we trounced them in their own gym. We almost doubled Milford's score with an incredible 82-42 count, and four days later we were humiliated by Hardings Presidents. In the face of all these victories and defeats, we came so close to entering the tournament that just one reversal of one of our defeats would have sent us to New Haven for the second year in succession. It was an unpredictable season which left nothing to the imagination of our loyal fans.

He scored over 500 points and was selected by rival coaches for the District All-Star Team. Al Kanawall scored 200 points and was given honorable mention. The opening of the new Mill Plain Gym midway in the season was an important event for both fans and players. The modern gym will be the scene of all next yearls home games. Unlike this season's team, next year's will have several boys with varsity experience. Among them are four lettermen Bob Meeker, Scott Smith, joe Stanov- sky, and George Gross. Those graduating from this year's team are Walter Waltz, Al Kanawall, Paul Greenawalt, Bob Lieberum, Drew Radel, Dick Bis- choff, Bob Graham, and Bob Hajas.

Despite a mediocre record of wins while suffering many losses, the Fairfield soccer team's fall campaign ended brilliantly when the boys toppled highly rated and previously undefeated Hillhouse. The greatest handicap of Coach Vincent Strout's kickers was the definite lack of experience which was most evident in the performance of the goalies. As expected, veteran forwards Drew Radel and 6525155 Nicky Pelin set the pace in scoring, with Pelin setting the season's high of two goals in the contest with Nor- walk. The all around play of Richard Petitti procured him the honor of captain. However, the services of Richard Bergman, Walter Planeta, Dick Mount, and the invaluable coaching of john Day and Vincent Strout deserve honorable mention, too.

It might be added that PHYLLIS CAMPBELL ANN CURLEE LOUISE LYONS JOSEPHINE O'DWYER the only ones who looked forward to this initiation were the old members. Another important part in the program was the trip to New York City.

For three consecutive years the girl's varsity basket- ball team has been undefeated! To uphold its reputa- tion this year, the girls played a tough schedule en- countering Milford, Cherrylawn, Staples, Darien, and Stamford. At the end of each game Fairfield always managed to be securely in the lead-except for the tussle with Stamford. Stamford, which had been un- defeated for five years, gave Fairfield formidable com- petition and was defeated only after a hard struggle. Next year the team will play without these veterans from the Class of '5 l: Sue Godfrey, Ethel Smith, Rena Civkin, Gloria Karafa, and Phyllis Campbell. 9 UM First Row: M. Diemand, S. Godfrey, R.

The Club is an honorary club whose members have earned twenty points in athletics in the course of their high school career. Upon acquiring these points each girl is awarded an sweater and a gold fox pin. Earning these points is a difficult task and usually requires four years of participation at playdays, in interclass sports, and on varsity squads. However, this year we had an exception-Rena Civkin-who earned her sweater in her junior year. AX 5 f F' 1 1 1 X YYXX Z S gf 5 Eagxxg yfe 45271.40 UZIIIUIZ First Row: R. Mount, Treasurerg 1.

For the first time in the history of the Fox, the 1950-51 staff held a Fox week. The purpose of this was to acquaint more people with the school paper and to recruit new members for next year's staff. On dis- play in the showcase were the mascot, a stuffed fox, and scrapbooks of earlier editions of the Fox. During the week the staff members wore pictures of little foxes, and the week was climaxed with a meeting at which staff members gave talks explaining their duties to prospective Fox members. Among the scoops for the Fox this year were the announcements of the yearbook editors and the winner of the D.A.R. award. One issue of the Fox car- ried a tribute to one of our most beloved English teachers, Miss Elizabeth McLaughlin, who died this year. The editors for this year's paper were Clelia D'- Attelo, editor-in-chief, Joan Kovacs, news editor, Rita Pawlikowski, feature editor, Agnes Butkus, copy ed- itor, and joan Wedlock, exchange editor. Sue Bondy was business manager and Marlene Simko, typing manager. All the pictures for the paper were taken by john Hatch and cartoons were drawn by Cynthia Szekeres. George Gross and Richard Gribko wrote the boys' sports column, Speaking of Sports , and Phyllis Campbell wrote the girls' column, Sissy Side. The senior social reporters were Kay Arnold and Mar- jorie Behm. jane Brainerd wrote the column, Alumni News , and Cynara Sullivan wrote Bouquets and Brickbatsu. Faculty advisers were Mary Dorn, Joseph Batchelor, and A. Cynthia Caldwell. yafaaa Qaaaaaar af yfrararba -OFFICERS- JUNIOR AND SENIOR GROUP Preriaem ............................

Each girl works for a period of two weeks either before or after school. Her duties include stamping outgoing books, filing cards, writing notices, and helping in the preparation of new books for circulation. There were twenty-two girls this year, six of whom acted as library messengers, preparing lists of pupils in the library and delivering them to the study rooms each period. Six girls-Chloe Anderson, Claire Bour- geois, Louise Goyette, Sally Jennings, Joan Ko- vacs, and Rita Pawlikowski-were presented with the gold Library Aide pin as a mark of appreciation from the school for two years of service well done.

The Junior Red Cross had a full program this year. The Junior Red Cross Council, composed of the officers and two representatives from each class, dir- ected the activities of the group. It sponsored the for- mation of a Junior Red Cross Workshop which met as a club under the direction of Joan DeMartino, Presi- dent, Catherine Nemesky, Vice-President, Barbara Koczy, Secretary, and Sally Kutz, Treasurer. In all homerooms there were Junior Red Cross representa- tives who helped carry out the Red Cross program. The following were the projects of the year: en- rolling members, buying and gift-wrapping cigarettes to send to Newington Veterans Hospital, organizing a workshop, distributing Blood Bank posters, assisting at the Blood Bank by serving refreshments, and help- ing at Red Cross Headquarters at the time of the Na- tional Drive. Gift boxes were packed for overseas, albums were made for children in other countries to help promote better understanding, and temperature charts were fixed to be used at Newington Hospital. Junior Red Cross members also made handker- chiefs, gloves, and sleeveless sweaters for the Red Cross. Many worked at the switchboard and in the ofhces of Red Cross Headquarters during the summer. ufzfbxl ffm! 62055 Wfwfafffai First Row: S. Kutz, C. Nemesky, L. Marseglia, J. DeMartino, M. A, Klein, L.

Many of the new Thespians earned their laurels in the Komian production What A Life early in the year. These members acted in many capacities from leading parts on stage to the equally important but less glamorous work backstage of painting the act, making up the actors, and in general making sure that the show did go on. The informal introduction of fifteen new members took place in the spring term and featured a one act play and a piano recital. Later in the year the Thespians presented a one act play during an activity period for the school student body. Hfzesfimzzfz Qfuzmmb' mf First Row: C. Friedberg, S. Lax, R. Goldberg, D. Plancon, J.

During the meeting the members played French games and wrote letters to a young man in France. Perhaps the most exciting event of the year was the trip the members made to New York City in April.

The consuls alternated in conducting the meetings as the early Roman consuls alternated in their duties. Club membership was divided into small groups, each taking charge of one club program. The club voted to assume leadership for organizing projects representing a picture of Roman life to be on display in the show case. In connection with the ex- hibit members gave oral reports on various phases of Roman life. The climax of the club year was a trip to New York to see the classical exhibits in the museums and a stage play and to lunch in an Italian restaurant, so combin- ing a bit of modern Italy and early Rome. 79 We ufubzl-aguzuvfl Qbflum Preridenz ..
