The Raider hardwood quintet, coached by Bill Kearns, provided its followers with many thrills and finished the season with an impressive 12-4 record and close second in the Narry League. Once again Bill Burgess received All-Narry honors for his out¬ standing play during the basketball season. Paul Ginalski and Jim Medeiros received the highest honors possible by being selected Somerset High’s representatives to Boys’ State. September 9, 1953;—the dawn of a new school year, our last at Somerset High. It seemed impossible, yet it was true, that we had finally obtained the highest level in our high school career—the Senior year. With the aid of Miss Mason, our new advisor, we carefully selected those whom we wished to lead us through our fourth and final year. Those selected were: President, James Sousa; Vice President, Ann Weeden; Secretary, Claudette Levesque; Treasurer, Jim Doonan; Girl Councillor, Marilee Archambault; and Boy Councillor, Russell Cadorette. Paul Ginalski, now known to all as Moe,” who had been the outstanding leader of our class for three years now relinquished this position of president of the class to become president of the SAA. Jimmy Medeiros, who had had some previous experience in the student coun¬ cil, was elected by the student body to the honored position of SAA Treasurer. The Memoirs XVII staff having been appointed, they began work immediately. Barbara Boyle received top honors as Editor, with Beth Kilgrew as her assistant; Jim Balaguer was given the task of Business Manager, and with Miss Walsh assisting us, we started out to produce the best yearbook in SHS history. Coach John Simpson turned out another magnificent football team, termed by many as the best in SHS history. Led by Co-Captains Bill Burgess, who set an all-time Eastern Massachusetts individual scoring record of 159 points, and Jim Doonan, this powerful grid machine rolled through an undefeated, untied season to cop the Narry League Championship and 4th place in State Class D.” The gridders ended their sensational season by defeating their arch rival Case 27-7 in a hard-fought contest on Thanksgiving Day, thereby retaining possession of the prized ”49ers” Trophy. Now the days flew by much faster and before we knew it—the Senior Orals!!! After these were completed, graduation rehearsals started in full swing. We could hardly realize that there were only three events remaining in our final year—the Junior- Senior Prom, the Class Banquet, and Graduation. Both the Prom and the Banquet were exquisite affairs. And, through the blur of dreamy and exciting happenings, there is one memorable event which brought many a lump to the throats of my friends Graduation Night. It wasn’t until we received our diplomas that we realized that we were no longers Seniors—we were Alumni!!!
