Spaulding High School - Our Echo Yearbook (Barre, VT)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1953 volume:

IA J 'P iecwvui As we look back over our Senior year, many events stand out in our minds. This book is a record of our reminiscences both for ourselves and for others who may be interested. We remember, most important of all, our classmates with whom we have shared so many experiences. We shall never forget the games, dances, and extracurricular activi- ties of Spaulding, but there are also more serious memories, our classroom work, practicing for con- certs and plays, and finally our ap- proaching graduation. As we take you day by day through our last year in Spaulding, we shall try to give you a picture of our lives, both in school and in our leisure hours. f -f 'ZOe, Seneor of SP4I1L0IIC HIGH SCHOOL B4RRE, VERHONT 7 e tyia u£e (jenter of t e 'ZifenCct te£C t e otony of ou% Senio cfea i t (?o-ecUto o 'DtlKK ‘£ z uci€i '?fic6e 'i p “Su i te4A THtuuzyeT.

V.H ddlebury One of the best definitions of common sense is given by Stowe, who says It is the knack of seeing things as they are and oing things as they should be done. Most people who are credited with rare judgment have merely developed the gift of common sense. Practical common sense can be infinitely more valuable than a most elaborate university education. In fact every ounce of learning needs a pound of common sense to apply it. May each member of the Class of '53 use this gift in future years. . i 868 � ■ t Zrzi, £ if£� rSZZ � ° SPAULDING HIGH SCHOOL Frank W. Mayo. Principal BARRE. VERMONT Four years ago on the opening day of school I chanced to look out my office window toward the Robert Burns monument. There, coming up the walk from all directions, I saw several hundred eager young people returning for the new school year. Many were reporting, not too confidently, I think, for the first time to become members of the freshman class. This group was you, the class of 1953- You were wondering, I am sure, just what the big, red brick building held for you and if you would survive the next four years here. Today as you graduate, I am doing the wondering. I look into your faces as you sit on the stage above me and feel some curiosity as to how much you have improved your time and how much you have profited by your efforts. Each class that graduates faces many of the same problems and opportunities. The road you travel is about the same, but the markers are different for each one of you. You will have your chance to be successful in the many opportun- ities that can be found because this is America. My best wishes and great hopes go with you today.

These include commercial, trade industrial, college preparatory, and academic. Each student is interviewed by a com- petent staff of guidance counselors, headed by Mr. Frank Devine. Our counselors help us to make a wise choice of subject matter according to our abilities. Our language department offers elective courses in French, Spanish, and Latin along with a compulsory four-year English course. The commercial curriculum opens the way to a business career through courses in stenography, bookkeeping, office practice and law, and a sales and advertising course which goes along with a part-time job. 7Vit6 t6e 7tt4 ucct vi4. “ttyciue. dfeoeti So Miss Eleanor Griffith Commercial Mr. Manuel Setien Commercial Miss Eleanor Singerman Commercial Mrs. Flora Young Commercial Mr. George Dean Science Miss Christine Martin Science, Math.

The Council also helped the Frosh to feel at home by sponsoring the Freshman Reception.

In addition the Council worked on the problem of installing a pay phone and milk machine at S.H.S. 9 Relaxative Girls' State style. We are the high school girls from the Green Mountain State was the theme song for the '52 Girl Staters. The week from June 22 to June 29 at V.J.C. was spent in studying our state government.

We, the sextet, will never forget that swell week. a ui {fviCa Statens we Through the efforts of the American Legion Auxiliary, Girls State was made possible for the following girls: 2nd row: left to right, Claire Laferriere, sponsored by C.D.A.; Ann Bowen, Pythian Sisters and B.P.W.; 1st row: Nira Anderson, O.E.S.; Audrey Spooner, North Barre Woman's Club; Judy McLeod, American Legion, (absent: Pat Friberg, Barre Woman's Club) 10 The American Legion, the sponsor of Green Mountain Boys State, has made it possible for high school boys to better their know- ledge in governmental affairs.

Although Spaulding sent a delegation of eleven boys, Dann Sargent was the only one bringing home the honor of holding a state office, secretary of the treasury. Nevertheless, every one of the delegates to Boys State took part in the governmental pro- cedures and in all the activities.

Any afternoon in this room, you will find writers, typists, proofreaders, circulation work- ers, and photographers, all working together to put out a current issue of the Sentinel ' our school newspaper. Claire Laferriere, News Editor,- Janet Pearlestein, Feature Editor; Donald La Rouche, Sports Editor; Claire Fournier, Business Manager,- and the Circulation and Mailing Managers, Angela Caslani and Claire Dion, are doing a fine job this year under the direction of Mr. Luther M. Allison, their adviser. It takes a good many hours of work on the part of adviser and editors to pub- lish this bi-weekly paper. They head a staff of about fifty hard-working boys and girls with everyone from home room agents to editorial writers pitching in, doing his share. All their labors are rewarded, however, by the hap- py smiles of students enjoying the interesting reports and helpful articles in home rooms and study halls on the day the Sentinel is distributed. Just thinking of all the honors, local and national, our very own newspaper has brought home to us in our years at Spaulding, makes us proud of all the hard work that everyone connected with its circulation does. This year, for the first time, the staff has the assist- ance of a group of photographers who take and de- velop their own pictures. These boys are doing a good job, as we all can tell by looking at the many snapshots that appear in every issue. Our fondest memories of our four years at Spauld- ing are recorded in the Sentinel : Christmas Balls and Junior Proms, basketball tournaments and football vic- tories, and never-to-be forgotten plays, concerts, and assemblies that we've all taken part in. In our Sent- inels we have a lasting file of our happiest times in high school. Sentinel Business Staff Sentinel Editorial Staff 4th row: A. Petell, M. Roy, M. Lawson, A. Savois, A. Puricelli, A.

Se ti iT4 tyet This year we had material for one of the greatest teams ever to come out of Spaulding, but because of severe injuries to five starting players the Crimson Tide was reduced in super- iority. The squad had nine seniors to start, but injuries to Bobby Brault and Paul Machia, two great halfbacks, along with a severe knee injury to Jon Riley cut the seniors to six. Winston .Bashaw was one of the better linemen and was a fullback for the first three games. He and Wayne Mugford ably filled the tackles slot. At one guard was Charlie Thygesen a good man on defense. Bill Fraser was one of the better reserve guards. George Corey was a quarterback, switched to half- back after the injuries to the other halfbacks. Jiggs Cecchini, the last senior, was a first string guard who switched to full- back for the last five games. Others injured were Bob Tomasi, a tackle, and Floreal Lavin, a back. Butch Ford and Roily Batcheldor alternated at the center position. Bob Waugh was the other starting end. Francis Tash did all the kicking. Frank Corey and Gardner Corey also were capable start- ing backs. Although we tried desperately, we finished winning three, losing four, and tying one. 14 Frank Corey picks up a first down against Montpelier. At top, Paul Machia stiff arms a Winooski tackier.

Why, at the Lighthouse, of course! We were fortunate in having a teen-age club started during our freshman year by civic-minded members of the student body who could see that there should be a place where we could meet our friends, talk over the latest social affairs, and have an evening snack. With the aid of parents and friends, such a club was soon formed, with a large membership. It now plays a large part in the life of most Spauldingites, and all of us will long remember the grand evenings we've spent at our own Lighthouse.

With only minor variations that was the plot of the senior play presented in the high school auditorium on November 13 and 14. Given the Widow- ed Mother, Beauteous Daughter, Stalwart Hero, Dastard- ly Villain, Mortgaged Home, and Assorted Extras, the reader can make up the plot for himself. So let's have a few random notes from One-on-the-Aisle. The Symbolic scenery was very effective, especially the local Toonerville Trolley (otherwise the Barre — Montpelier — Graniteville). The delayed action of the train whistle, the repairs on the engine, and the rock (definitely the ROCK — Did somebody run up into the pasture for it?) was a bit of funny business much ap- preciated by the audience. Even Prudence's parasol missed its cue — or did it? The villain music (performed by Carole Rizzi) was an excellent running accompani- ment, the stylized duels were pure farce, and the mus- tachios were fearful and wonderful adornments for teen-age faces. (Did your mother know you, Howard? Or did she want to know you?) If an occasional part was overacted, small wonder and small blame in this unfamiliar melodramatic hodgepodge. The surprise lay in the fact that most of the acting showed the proper restraint, a result which can no doubt be attributed to skillful direction by Spaulding's new dramatic coach Mr. Robert Pierce. 22 Our cast breathes a sigh of relief after giving a wonderful performance. '2 Ve 'Produce au OCd- pdodco cecC ’?7teiCendr z H4i. Among the principal actors. Prudence Hopewell, the heroine, (Mary Lou Politi) should be highly commended; not once did she lose her poise or the audience, a truly remarkable feat of dead-pan for the effervescent Mary Lou. Mother Claire Laferriere and her rocking chair made a charming picture. Saucy Sandra Smith, as Fifi, twitched attractively through her part. George Karnedy, the noble hero, handled well a difficult role. Gail Aid- rich and Ruth Anton, as two women no better than they should be, were horrible but adequate examples of the old-fashioned Siren. And Ha! Ha! Yaeger!! For a dashing villain Pat is on the small side, but he blew in and out with such an outside snarl that the audience often forgot his normal dashing appearance in the Spaulding corridors. Skits between the acts were suitably reminiscent of the old Ten-Twent'-Thirt' shows. However, some numbers were less suggestive of the South than of the East (East Barre). Isn't that right.

'penal 'HoxtAew uleayue '7oufma nen( “SintA Perfectly summing up the 1952-1953 hoop season, a fan remark- ed, after the heartbreaking tournament defeat to Burlington, We came one game and a couple of lucky tap-ins away from the State Championship. Not bad for a team that wasn't supposed to win a league game. At the season's outset we had only three substitutes returning from last year's squad. But with a lot of hard work and hustle, the first team of four Bobs and a Pete settled down to trounce Spring- field and Rutland, avenge an early defeat at the hands of Berlin N.H., win six out of our first seven league games, and defeat the highly-vaunted Burlington Seahorses. In the Northern Tournament we defeated a fast-breaking Hart- ford club at their own game by a margin of 66-53. In the final, after overcoming an early deficit, we led all the game until, with three minutes left to play, Burlington went ahead to win 41-36 by virtue of their superior height and a few lucky breaks. We finished the season with a 14-7 record. Pete Fisher and Bob Blow were All-Tourney choices, and Butch Ford was selected on the All-Northern quintet. Co-captains Bob Brault and Pete Fisher shared scoring honors in the Burlington game, a fitting climax to four years of hard work. Pride ran high at Spaulding in the magnificent per- formance of the Tide and in the great job handed down by Coach Wescott, certainly in our book, Coach of the Year. Coach Richard Wescott, in his sophomore • year at Spaulding, deserves a world of praise for moulding this years' green material into one of the smoothest quintets in the state. m9 27 Paul Greenwood (13) goes high for a rebound against Cathedral with Gardner Corey (10) looking on.

On December 14 we presented an impressive Christ- mas program to the public, and on December 19 the same program was given at our Christmas assembly. Mr. Gray resigned during vacation and moved to Burlington. We shall always appreciate what he did for the music groups here at Spaulding. cmeC TfteCocttf, ’7 t zcde t Our Girls' Choir presented a concert to the combined service clubs and added their feminine voices to our Glee Club Concert. Over two hundred voices harmonize for our Spring Concert. In January we started work on music for the Spring Concert, which was presented on April 9. The Girls7 Choir met and elected Nira Anderson president, Sandra Simpson vice-president and Claire Dion secretary. Thirty-seven seniors were Winooski Valley Festival.

Our ski team had one of the most successful seasons in years. Not once did we fail to place, and in all the meets, we were the team to beat. Seniors Dean Campbell, Dick Aldrich, John Black, Sonny Cummings, and Armand Couture made up the backbone of a nine man squad. Juniors Andy Eastman and Roger Rivard, Sophomore Ricky Putnam, and Freshman Bob Sanguinetti completed the roster coached by Gus Pepin. After almost every meet, Mr. Mayo was presented with a new trophy to add to our vast collection. Besides just competitive skiing, we undertook an extremely worthwhile project. We helped organize and operate the new Granite City Ski Bowl. The new area has a good tow and jump and offers a good place to practice and hold ski meets. The accidental death of Coach Milt Hutchinson during practice at the Ski Bowl robbed skiing of an ardent supporter. He helped originate the Ski Bowl and did a great coaching job. version of the New York Philharmonic assembles for a dress rehearsal. a ui cuui OrcAe tm 'PxeAettt The orchestra put in many long hours of rehearsals this year, but it paid off in pleasing results. Our first program was presented at the Senior play. Next came the concert at Christmas. At that time we joined with the band to per- form the Christmas Story. After playing at the class plays, we settled down to work on the Vermont Music Festival, the Winooski Valley Festival, and our spring con- cert. At this, we entertained the public with The Blue Tango and You'll Never Walk Alone. Our oFRcers were Renald Lafaille president, Marlene Nelson vice-president, and Charlotte Philbrook secretary. 34 The Spaulding Band started the year with a trip to Rutland where we played at the football game Afterwards we went out to eat. Of course, the big gest thrill was our annual trip to Burlington for the Music Festival. We loved every minute of it even though we did have sore feet at the end of the two-mile parade. The spring concert was a huge suc- cess with the band playing everything from Three Little Pigs to the finale of God of Our Fathers. Our officers this year were Donald Lawliss president, Dean Campbell vice-president, and Charlotte Phil- brook secretary.

A. 11 Our national pastime holds an Important place among springtime activities here at S.H.S. The 1952 version of the Tide compiled an enviable record, slug- ging its way into the play-offs only to lose to B.F.A. of St. Albans in the Northern League finals. We did, how- ever, beat the champion B.F.A. nine two times during the regular season. Pete Fisher and Rusty Camire with Bill Mann in relief handled the bulk of the pitching. In the hitting depart- ment, Joe Work, Don Murray, Art Solomon, and Ronnie Thow paced the rest of the team. Bob Shuttle, Marcy Rouleau, and Marcy Laflamme played flawless defen- sive ball. The May 9 game with Cathedral displayed vividly the Crimson power as we vanquished the Little Indians 15 to 1 behind a thirteen hit attack. Montpelier was twice swamped by the Tide; once by a 10 to 2 score. Pete Fisher's five hit performance against B.F.A. was the best pitching show of the season. The final tally was eight wins and five losses. In 1953, we have nine seniors returning. Four-year veteran Pete Fisher and fellow-southpaw Ken Mason will form the backbone of the pitching staff. Don Mur- ray, our most experienced outfielder, will lead the hit- ting parade. Not far behind will come Bob Brault, Charlie Thygesen, Marcy Laflamme, and Winnie Ba- shaw, George Corey, and Larry Casellini. Speed is the important factor this year. Well be fighting for that tournament berth and should get it. We're out to avenge last year's loss. 37 2nd row: V. Copping, E. Lawson, C. Quinlan, D. Flint, S. Canales, P. Burns, C. Wilson, J.

This year seniors have visited ele- mentary schools to observe the teach- ing methods used there. Our Future Nurses of America Club was organized in 1951 by Mr. Devine. It is to help us girls, who are interest- ed in nursing, to decide if we really want to follow this profession.

Twenty-five members of the Moni- tors' defensive squad swear that they are in the roughest indoor sport ever invented. Any resemblance to actual football is darn foolish. They wear no pads and no All-State teams are picked.

We will never forget our experi- ences and we hope to retell them with pride to the next generation. This year Spaulding was a new experience for us. The building was a maze of confusing corridors filled with superior beings (upperclassmen). In spite of all our fears, the whole school warmly welcomed us at a highly successful Freshman Reception. Our class officers were chosen soon after. Dann Sargent was our head officer with Pete Fisher as his vice-president; Pat Friberg was our secretary, and Jiggs Cecchini our treasurer. They proved to be a good combination and led our class well. The Light- house opened this year for the first time. Many of us had active parts in getting it ready. (?o H Ke tce Ou% Pete Fisher, Pat Friberg, Bob Cecchini, and Dann Sargent were the officers that helped start us on our high school career. The varsity cheerleaders chose five J.V. cheer- leaders from our Freshman girls. The honor fell to Judy McLeod, Elaine Henkel, Carole Ann Lunde, Elisa Canizo, and Marcelle Desmarais, all of whom performed wefl in their new positions. At the Sentinel dance, Pauline Tomasini and Benny Trottier were voted the most popular in their class and were crowned King and Queen. ScAooC (? zn.ee%. Scaled Stc 4? Our varsity basketball team was tops in the state, winning the state championship. The team, followed by many of us, went to the Boston Garden to com- pete in the New England tournament. We suffered a loss there. Our class play was The Ghost Story, in which Ann Bowen, Dann Sargent, and others did wonder- ful jobs. We saw several new things at Spaulding this year. One was the installation of new courses: History and Appreciation of Music, and Drivers' Training. Our wonderful Freshman year was ended, but we looked forward to three more full years af Spauld- ing and especially to being Seniors. These young-looking freshmen were our class and home room officers. 3rd row: Edith Wheeler, Polly Marcotte, Joe Tash. 2nd row: Carole Lunde, Audrey Lonergan, Roberta Bradbury, Nira Ander- son, Joyce Payne. 1st row: Pete Fisher, Dann Sargent, Pat Friberg, Bob Cecchini. With Peter Fisher as president, Charlie Calcagni as vice-president, Jane Gray as secretary, and John MacAulay as treasurer, we began a year that flew past. Jiggs Cecchini, Roberta Bradbury, and Joe Tash inspected class rings. The Sophomore Hop committee put on a crowd- getting dance. The theme was Friday the Thir- teenth, so black cats, cracked mirrors, 13% and other symbols of bad luck were prominent every- where. It held only good luck and a grand time for those who attended, however. Those on the committee were Marie Rugo, Nira Anderson, Pat Friberg, John MacAulay, Larry Casel- lini, and Dann Sargent. 4 'fyea't i Sxft tieHce An exciting football game held the interest of these fans. Donald Lawliss thrilled many at the Barre Mihstrel Show. The Lighthouse was the center of all outside activities. 44 Descending from the Boston bus were these happy Spauldingites. VCt, 'ZOe “Seji ( x oo4e«t “Ttfc Antic Spring 7 our play, with Ann Bowen, Joe Tash, Lorraine Spencer, Mary Lou Politi, Dann Sargent, and Pat Yae- ger, won first prize in the interclass con- test. The Lighthouse moved to our more ca- pacious quarters behind the hotel. Representing us on the cheering squad were Carole Lunde, Elaine Henkel, and Judy McLeod. Sheila Brigham was ma- jorette mascot. The clown band was seen and enjoyed at many basketball games. Our only faculty losses were Miss Sar- gent, Mrs. Wescott, and Mr. Sheehan. We ended the year looking forward to being upperclassmen. A committee consisting of Rober- ta Bradbury, Elaine Henkel, Audrey Spooner, Charles Calcagni, Robert Cecchini, and Joe Tash chose our class ring from three having red stones. It featured different colored gold with our crest and numerals. The sports activities can be summed up in one sentence. Our football team was runner-up in the Northern League; our basketball team represented our state in the New England tourney; and our J.V. basketball team took the Northern crown. The Sophomore girls7 team won the hoop league. The boys on the J. V. team were champs of the Northern League. 45 Caught unaware were John MacAulay, Claire Laferriere, Elaine Henkel, and Au- drey Spooner, our officers. Our chaperones had a wide view from their bench in the park. The four Juniors who did such an outstanding job leading us through our Junior year were President John MacAulay, Vice-President Elaine Hen- kel, Secretary Audrey Spooner, and Treasurer Claire Laferriere. We began the year anxiously awaiting the sports season. Many members of the class of '53 represent- ed us on the football squad. We were proud of Winston Bashaw, who won a place as tackle on the All-State team. Many big events occurred during 1952. The Carousel, a bazaar and dance, was held at the Auditorium to add to the scholarship fund. All the clubs in the school took part to make it a success. at xloot, Bob Brault, Pete Fisher, and Mike Ferguson were chosen for the varsity basketball squad. This year Spaulding took the Northern League crown for the third straight time. On March 15 we made our bid for state champs for our third straight year but went down in defeat at the hands of Rut- Resting for a while were those that decorated so well. land. Although it was a hard loss for all Spauldingites, we shall always re- member the great team that did its best all season. The Girls' Choir and Mixed Chorus were first organized by Mr. Colin Gray. Monitors and Girls and Boys Staters were also chosen. “Ttotfatup ut “PdlcMe 71 4 Winning second place in the state play contest was 'The King of Gener- al Macias. Nira Anderson, Joe Tash, and Cris Acker were our representa- tives. But the event which surpassed all others was our Junior Prom, called An Evening in Paris. Our band was the Green Collegians from Dartmouth. Our decorations, with our scene of Paris, our baskets of flowers, our rock garden, and our sidewalk cafe and tables were original and very attrac- tive. The committee consisted of the officers and Pat Friberg, Bob Cecchini, Jane Gray, Claire Dion, John Black, and Donald LaRouche. We are proud to add we are the only class to have made such a profit on a Spaulding prom. A group of girls held the gradua- tion class colors in an arch on Class Day. This added greatly to the im- pressiveness of the ceremonies. Also, a number of Juniors acted as ushers at graduation. The commencement ceremonies made it manifest that our Senior year was just around the corn- er, and the sentiment displayed grad- uation night made us realize that our high school years were flying by. Smooth music set a happy mood for the evening.

In the whirlwind of affairs the Echo staff was working to produce a great yearbook. To pay for it, we held a successful food sale, sold name cards, and made a record profit on our Senior Play. at a4t 7tte Start t£e tfouruey The football, basket- ball, and baseball clubs were good, all-around teams.

Winding up the wonderful year was the experience of being included in the Alumni Association. The strains of the Spaulding March given to the seniors by the late Mrs. Josephine Perry, once a music supervisor at Spaulding, will be kept sacred in our memories. The monitors squeeze in before the bell rings. 49 One of the most coveted a- wards a Spaulding student may receive is the Scholastic S. It is given for an all A average over a period of one year.

A new aspect of the athletic program in 1949, the awarding of sweaters has become an an- ticipated event to all those who ski, lead cheers, or play football, basketball, and baseball. The sweaters and emblems, awarded by recommendation of the coach and with the approval of the Student Council, are the mark of ability, loyalty, and enthu- siasm. Proudly we add twenty-two of our classmates to this distin- guished list of Spaulding ath- letes. 50 Having taken the college preparatory course, one of our editors, Dann Sargent, won the top honor in our class of nearly two hundred. He earned an en- viable average to become valedictorian. Besides his scholastic ability he has been outstanding in school, church, and fraternal activities. Claire Fournier, with an average close to Dann's, was chosen our salutatorian. She took the academic course for her four years but still found time to par- ticipate in clubs and to spend long hours working on our school newspaper as the business manager. iecUt TV iene iecUt 6 Due 51 Claire Laferriere, a popular and friendly leader of our class, was chosen as the D.A.R.
