We were Freahmenl After taking time out to greet our old friends and to meet some new ones, we settled down to making life miserable for the teachers and upperclassmen of S.H.S. We elected the following officers to guide us through the first perilous year of high school: Norman Wallace, president; Joseph Raymond, vice-president; Phyllis Brown, secretary; Richard Hopkins, treasurer. We waged a constant battle against the monitors In regard to the speed limits and right-of-way in the halls. But we soon learned who was boss. (Mr. Murray I) Football season saw Coach Birsky's rough-and-ready squad of freshman lightweights challenge all comers as they turned In a good record. We organized intramural basketball teams, and some freshmen were placed on the Freshman-Sophomore team. When baseball season rolled around, the Freshman Class was well represented by Norm Wallace and Dick Sullivan, who both did a fine Job for us on the diamond. The track team also had a good share of capable freshmen digging up the cinders for S.H.S. Finally came June and that all important day - Field Dayl The class was divided into four groups and all types of games and contests were conducted. Our Field Day wasn’t forgotten for many weeks - probably because of our aching and sunburned backs. We wish to thank Mr. Murray for his assistance and advice which helped us to survive this, our most hectic year of high school. Edward Maculiewicz SOPHOMORE YEAR Well, most of us made it to our second year in Springfield High School. We got off to a good start by electing our class officers. We chose Norman Wallace as our president for the second time. John Aher and Janet Riel began their first years as officers, serving as vice-president and secretary, respectively. Richard Hopkins was again elected treasurer. We Sophs were pretty well represented in sports. We had eleven members on the J.V. football team, and Norm Wallace, Dick Hopkins, and Joe Raymond were on the varsity. Joanne Morse, Penny Elms, and Lorraine Jacobs were the sophomores on the cheer- leading squad. That accounts for all the noise and enthusiasm you heard. The sophomore girls formed two basketball teams and Janet Riel's team became the school champion. The Sophomore Dramatics Club produced two playa One was a hillbilly comedy put on for the Bazaar. The title was Coming Round the Mountain , and it starred Robert Slade. The other play was a comedy about a family mixup and was put on for assembly. Its title was Dynamite Dan , and it starred James Sullivan. In the one act play, which was entitled The Coiners, James Sullivan had a part. The Music Department would have missed us, for we had forty members in it. We contributed thirty-five students to the Glee Clubs, four to the Band, and one to the Orchestra. The Sophomore Paper was published after much blood, sweat, and tears. The editor was Richard Hopkins and the assistant editor was Janet Riel. The title was 51 or Nothing , and it was a thirty-three page affair with a good account of sophomore life. All in all, our Sophomore Class left quite an impression on Springfield Highl 43 Robert Slade JUNIOR YEAR After laboring for two years as superior underclassmen, we, the class of 1951, entered into our first year as upperclassmen. With the class honor as yet unstained in our hands, we started. 1950 was a successful year for our class. After we had grown used to our new environment, we elected our class officers. John Aher was given the Job of leading the class through its third year. The other officers were Roger Wells, vice-president; Janet Riel, secretary; and Barbara Koledo, treasurer. Our class was well represented in the field of sports. Five members of the fourteen-man varsity football squad were Juniors. Four Juniors were varsity basket- ball players. The class was similarly represented in the other sports, track and baseball. Junior intramural basketball teams were at the top. The cheerleaders showed a large supply of '51 faces. We were also musically minded with several students in the S.H.S. Band and Orchestra, and many in the two Glee Clubs. The thespians of the class were allowed to show their talents when the one-act play contest came around in the spring, for three of the six parts went to Juniors, Beverly Krupinski, Millie White and Carol Gove. Another of our spring activities was presenting the Senior Hop for the only class who might still claim to lord over us. The decorations were finally put up and everyone had a good time. The members of our class sent to Boys1 and Girls' State were Bob Duncan. Edgar Cota, Ted Hastings, Franklin Poole, Norman Wallace, James Sullivan, Joyce Abbott, Betty Kelly, Penny Elms, and Marilyn Houghton. This ended our Junior year, and after gaining the confidence of another year, we looked forward to our big year as seniors. James Sullivan SENIOR YEAR Our senior year - the one we looked forward to and dreamed about for three years. It can easily be said to have been the busiest and happiest one of all. As far as class affairs went, we had the senior play and yearbook; but the seniors were also found as members of the football, basketball, and baseball teams. The cheerleaders and other clubs boasted seniors, too. We sponsored the Football Formal and the Junior Prom, at which the students seemed to enjoy themselves completely. Our capable officers of the class of '51 were: John Aher, president; Roger Wells, vice-president; Janet Riel, secretary; and Richard Hopkins, treasurer. They all proved their worth and willingness to work throughout the year, with the aid of our faculty adviser, Mr. Brooks. One of the pleasant memories of this year was the fun at the tournament in Rutland, also our chem. periods with their field trips, and the out of town ball games so many of us attended. Last, but definitely not least, were the two German students, Christa Poppe and Ruediger Hahn, whom we have known for only a short time, but who will be remembered for many years to come. Joyce Abbott, Lorraine Jacobs, Dorothy Thibault, and Joan Osborne from the Girls' Glee Club and Harry Davis from the Band attended the New England Music Festival, which was held in Auburn, Maine, March 14-17. Beverly Gosselin Barbara Koledo, and Patricia Ward (Girls' Glee Club), David Foster (Boys' Glee Club) and Robert Clayton and Harry Davis (Band) attended the Vermont Music Festival which was held at Burlington, Vt., May 10-12. 9 44 The aenior boya who played in the S.V.L. tournament at Rutland were Capt. Norman Wallace, Richard Hopkins, Bernard Lucius, Michael Glntoff, and Edward Gosselin. The aenior cheerleadera who attended the tournament were Lorraine Jacoba, Joanne Morae, and Priscilla Ward We won the S V.L championship by defeating Rutland High School, 35-24. Norman Wallace was the only Springfield player to make the All-Tournament team; he was also named captain of the team. From there we went to Barre, where we lost the state championship to Spaulding High School, 50-48. The last term was our most active time of the year. That was when the actual business of graduation. Class Day and all the rest that makes up commence- ment week took place. That is one week which will stand out in our memories of Springfield High School. Connie Rivard Janet Riel CLASS PROPHECY by Beverly Krupinski and Barbara Koledo New York August 1961 Dear Mom, You’ll be happy to know that my application has finally gone through, and the warden, ELWIN JONES, has let me out on parole. I went over to Coney Island to celebrate my release and I saw quite a few of the old gang there. JOYCE ABBOTT, MARION AYER, MARJORIE BAIRD, PENNY ELMS, DOROTHY GARDNER, ROSE PARIZO, REGINA PRYBYLO, PAT ROGERS, SHIRLEY SMITH, JOAN BURTON, and DOROTHY THIBAULT were all taking their kiddies for a ride on the merry-go-round. JOHN AHER is ticket-collector at the Tunnel of Love. FRED NOURSE is Atlas, the Strong Man. FERN WILLEY has perfected a new mathematical computing machine that has amazed scientists and mathematicians. Just the same, nobody's invented one yet that can find an answer faster than BOB DUNCAN. Thanks for the year’s subscription to Esquire, Mom. I see that BOB CLAYTON and FRANCIS DAVIS are on the art staff. I am enclosing a picture of myself, taken at GALEN CRANDALL’S Photographic Studio. While I was there I ran into BETTY STONE, his private secretary, and she told me that Dr. LORRAINE JACOBS is starting a home for sick cats, assisted by nurses HELEN WOLSKI and JANET RIEL. BOB SLADE has taken over Walter Winchell’s old program. He predicted on his first broadcast that Senator ROGER WELLS would run for vice-president this year on the Republican ticket. And he announced that the new ambassador from Germany will be Mr. RUDY HAHN. I took a cab to Radio City last night ( the driver was ALFRED TESSIER), and saw EDGAR COTA'S Talent Scout Show. It ended in a tie between a singer, BEVERLY GOSSELIN, and a pianist, JOAN OSBORNE. The guest star this week was CHRISTA POPPE, popular German singer, and she was accompanied by HARRY DAVIS and his orchestra. I dropped into SHEILA DAVIS'S Quick-Lunch for a cup of coffee after the show. She has a new color television set ( manufactured by the GREGORY FICARA Radio Television Co.), so I stayed to watch LARRY NEILSON fight LOUIE GABRANSKI for the middleweight championship. Larry's new manager is BRUCE CLARK. After- wards I saw the Skipalong GURNEY program, featuring SYLVIA SMITH, and MERLE KNIGHT, Ace Detective, sponsored by the ANDY ANDERSON Plaid Suspenders Co. I I had dinner at ED MAY'S restaurant. Head chef is MARJORIE PATTON. Later I enrolled in the JACQUELINE and SHIRLEY BARROWS' Reducing Salon. 45 It looks as if the Dodgers will come out on top in the National League this season. Their star players are ELMER DEROSIE, BERNIE LUCIUS, and NORMAN WALLACE. Thanks for forwarding the money so soon, Mom. I bought a car from Mad Man MIKE GINTOFF, the used car dealer. The darn thing broke down after ten miles, and I had to leave it at GLEN RICHARDSON’S Garage for repairs. Do you still read the New York Times? BETTY KELLY wrote a good edito- rial yesterday about FAY AUSTIN’S Super Drug Store, which covers three blocks. I’d sure like to come and see you. Mom, but the parole officer, RICHARD HOPKINS, says I can’t leave the state. Why don’t you come and visit me in New York? I have a couple tickets to the new Broadway show, Montgomery Milque- toast’s Passion, with ED MACULIEWICZ as Monty Milquetoast and JAMES SULLIVAN as the mad scientist. MILLIE WHITE and CAROL GOVE are in it, too. Write and let me know. Yours affectionately, 46 AUTOGRAPHS 48 FOOTBALL First Row: J. Aher, E. Gilson, F. Nourse, T. Hastings, N. 6. Dunbar, J. Clark, B.

Wallace, R, Wyman, Tarro, LaPoint, To many students, a football game means a good time eating hot dogs, drinking soda, or having one arm encircling a thrilling date, but to a few boys it means a very strenuous sport. These pages are dedicated to the 55, or so, fellows who played the game, and to the four coaches who guided its progress. In the fall of 1950 about 75 fellows turned out to fight for Springfield High School, answering the call of Coach Stub” Mackey. With the return of such vet- erans from the 1949 team as Captain Richard Hopkins, N. Wallace, F. Nourse, T. Hastings, B. Lucius, 0. Cross, R. Chambers, E. DeRosie, E. Gilson, G. Richardson, B. Dunbar, R. Wyman, R. Mitchell, and R. Salmond, Springfield promised to have an average season with a schedule of seven rugged games. After working very hard for two weeks with conditioning exercises, reviewing fundamentals, and learning plays, Springfield made two very successful showings in pre-season scrimmages with Woodstock and Vermont Academy. J.V. Coach R. LaBonte, Head Coach E. Mackey, Asa. Head Coach P. Brooks, Ltwt. Coach B. Birsky. 50 First Row: F. Nourse, Capt. R. Hopkins, R. Wells, R. Chambers, 6. dross, E. Oilson, R. Salmond. Second Row: P. Tarro, B. Dunbar, Coach Mackey, N. Wallace, R. Barton. In the first game, Springfield started on the right trail by beating Windsor. The team got off to a slow start, but when Bob Salmond stole the ball and ran for a touchdown, our spirits were lifted and we won, 26-0. The only two players who weren't In a gala mood that night were B. Dunbar, who pulled a few ligaments In his knee, and Capt. R. Hopkins, whose arm was as big as his leg with a broken blood vessel. Later the next week N. Wallace tried to push a thistle tube through his hand and couldn't play football for a few days. The next Saturday we went down to Brattleboro to play the Colonels, who later won the state championship. Springfield s offense was terrific. We moved the ball forward every time we had possession of it, with great runs by the backfield (which included a 93 yard march in the second quarter), but let's forget that shellacking. The experts say a good licking is apt to make one work harder and, believe me, we did during the next week. Confidentially what's thirty-nine points among friends. Exactly seven days later the team moved into Claremont, N. H., to play a strong Claremont eleven. Charles Spencer predicted the score 19-0 in favor of Claremont, but again we proved him wrong by a 26-0 win. Coach Mackey and Paul Brooks were responsible for this win because they set up a tricky defense which Claremont couldn't break through. Claremont gained only ten yards by rushing during the entire game. At half-time the Claremont band dedicated the song— ”If I'd Known You Were Coming I'd Have Baked A Cake” to the Captain Richard Hopkins S. H. S. football team. Tackle 51 The next Saturday afternoon the team went to Rutland and played a rough game against a strong M.S.J. team, SDrinafield trailed 7-13 at half-time, but during the second- half we fumbled ourselves right out of the ball game After working very hard polishing up our offense and defense during the following week, the team played the Rutland Raiders”• For the first three quarters Rutland took advantage of a couple of our mental errors and built up a 14-0 lead. But during the last quarter Springfield start- ed to click and scared the cleats off the cocky Raiders with a 13 point explosion. Every time Springfield plays Barre it either rains or snows. The weatherman didn’t fail us this season, for it started to rain Friday afternoon and never stopped until Sunday morning. At 1:30 o’clock, Saturday afternoon, the football team splashed out on the muddy, rain-pelted gridiron to play the strong Crimson Tide football team. During this game, the hard- fighting Cosmos out-slipped, out-slopped, and out-played Barre. Both teams had one chance to score. Barre was stopped on the four-inch line and Springfield dropped a perfect pass because of the soggy ball a few seconds before the game was over, but, nevertheless, Springfield had scored a moral victory. For the last game of the season, the Cosmos went to Bellows Falls to play our arch rivals down the river. The team just couldn t do anything right and, as a result, we were out-fought, out-thought, and out-played by a weaker B. F. team. One man from Springfield, Captain Richard Hopkins, made the All-State first team, and we know Hoppy really deserved this position. Captain-elect Bernard Dunbar was chosen on the second All-State team. Norman Wallace, Robert Salmond, Elliot Gilson, and Richard Chambers received honorable mention. Next year the Cosmos grid team will be without the services of graduates Captain Dick Hopkins, N. Wallace, E. Gilson, F. Nourse, T. Hastings, B. Lucius, 0. Cross, E. Maculiewicz, R. Chambers, R Wells, E. DeRosie, G. Richardson, and Manager Harry E. Davis, Jr. With the return of such veterans as Capt-elect Bernard Dunbar, R. Salmond, R. Wyman, J. Clark, R. Mitchell, R. Barton, C. Smith, C. Chandler J. Allen, C. Johnson, P. Tarro and R. Bradway, under the guidance of our excellent coaching staff, the Cosmos should be up on top. FOOTBALL SIDELIGHTS Harry Davis was our triple-threat manager. He ran out on the field with the water pail during the game; he played his trumpet in the band during the half-time, and he could kick field-goals. He didn’t get a chance to display his talented toe during a game because the situation never came up where a field-goal was needed. Seriously, the managers did a wonderful job helping the team during the last season. A football team is divided into two parts. The backfield and ends get all the glory and the linemen from tackle to tackle are the work-horses. The papers always say who makes a spectacular run but they never say who opened up the hole or the teammate who blocks for the ball-carrier. During the last part of the season, the football team was excused from school early so Coach Mackey could tape them before darkness. More than half the team had to be taped before any practice or game. All the team felt sorry for Glenn Richardson and Edwin Huber who hurt themselves before the first game and couldn't play football for the rest of the season. On November 14, the Elks gave a banquet honoring the football team. Boyl Could those speakers tell jokes I The whole football team had a wonderful time.

Due to the fact that the Yearbook is sent to the printing company early, it is impossible to write a complete summary of the ski team and the other spring sports. Last December many students answered the call of Coach Hilliard to serve on the Springfield High School Ski Team. Mother Nature hasn't cooperated the least bit so far this winter, for there hasn't been sufficient snow on the ground to ski on at any time; therefore. Coach Hilliard hasn't seen any member ski, so that he couldn't predict what kind of a season the team would have this year. As yet no captain or any other officers have been elected.

STATE TOURNAMENT Barre Mar. 10 Away 50-48 Lost 55 r One week following our Armistice Day football clash with Bellows Falla, Coach Birsky organized inter-class competition to form the nucleus of Springfield High School fighting Cosmos basketball team. Coach Birsky adopted the scrimmage method as his means of picking the prospective candidates for the arduous season which they were going to encounter in three weeks. Those players showing the great- est potentialities for varsity basketball were as follows: Seniors- Norman Wallace, Richard Hopkins, Michael Gintoff, Bernard Lucius, and Edward Gosselin; Juniors- Robert Salmond, Richard Wyman, Philip Tarro, and Richard Blais. In preparation for the rugged 18 game schedule. Coach Birsky arranged scrimmage sessions with the Springfield Admirals and Towle High School of Newport, New Hampshire. The S.H.S. hoop squad made its formal debut at Barre, Vermont, with the Crimson Tide of Spaulding High School, defending Class A” State Champions. The Cosmos were handi- capped by first game Jitters and dropped a close decision to the calmer Spaulding quintet, 53-51. Still in preleague preparation, the Cosmos played host to the Randolph Aggies and chalked up the first win of the season, 57-35. The Ben-Hi Catamounts, first opponents in the Southern Vermont League, subdued Springfield High School by the score of 49-43, because of the Birskymen s inefficiency on the charity strip. The Springfield Hoopsters took their second Southern Vermont League setback as they went down fighting before the Rutland Raiders, 44-39, and a near capacity crowd of Springfield fan critics and Sunday morning quarterbacks. Just previous to this game Norman Wallace, a three year veteran, was chosen by his team- mates as the captain of the 1950-1951 Cosmopolitans. The undermanned Saint Michael s High courtmen were the first league victims of Coach Bobo Birsky s ballhawking and sure shooting Cosmos, 48-26. The well experienced Mount Saint Joseph team, defending tournament champs, trav- eled here for an important Southern Vermont loop tiff. The sparked Springfield five took an early lead and maintained it throughout the game. The well balanced shooting attack and board strength formulated the decisive victory for Springfield by a score of 43-34. The well trained Hincheymen of West Rutland invaded the up and coming Cosmopol- itans and gave them a scare by grasping the lead at intermission by a two point mar- gin, 27-25. But the determined Cosmos came back roaring mad the final half and trounced the Golden Horde, 64-50. The Fallsmen played host to the invading Machinetown rivals, and were victims of a terrific scoring spree that decided the Terriers defeat, 73-29. The last year league leading Colonels of Brattleboro Journeyed upstate to witness one of the best Cosmo exhibi- tions of the season, for the Cosmos put a brand new twist in the Southern Vermont League race as they upset the unbe- lieving, cocky Bratts out of first place, 57-35. Riding on a five game winning streak since the Saint Michael s game, the high spirited Birskymen traveled to Rutland High, this time to beat the Red Raiders, 44-37, in a spine tingling thriller that left the Birskymen in sole possession of second place in the Southern Vermont League. Springfield protected their win streak against Saint Michael s of Brattleboro by chalking up their seventh con- secutive victory, 47-40. Visiting Springfield was duped by questionable officiating while under the pressure of Mount Saint Joseph fanatics, and the final horn caught the Cosmos on the short end of a 55-36 defeat with three of the starting five rid- ing the bench and the other two, remaining in the game, were playing with four fouls apiece. r r L r r r r - 56 The Green and White journeyed north again to play in the West Side matchbox, and with a never-say-die rally in the final minutes of the game, netted a 56-53 victory over the scrappy Golden Horde. The sparked Hadleymen hit the twine repeatedly in the final period to double the scoring of the Cosmos, but the surge was insufficient to fill the gap, thus conceding the victory to Springfield, their arch-rivals, 57-47. The S.H.S. quintet won themselves a thriller at Brat- tleboro, 51-48, and protected their second place position in the Southern Vermont League Standings. The invincible Cosmos, before a capacity crowd, proved their mettle as they unquestionably conquered the Ben-Hi Cats, 59-41, and deservingly became co-holder of first place in the Southern Vermont League. Springfield played Stevens of Claremont in two pre- tournament games to develop perfection and to keep them- selves in condition. Both were ostensibly achieved in ad- dition to boosting the team's morale. The score at home was 47-39 and at Claremont, 69-28. Bernard Lucius This year, the Springfield High School team was re- Guard served a berth in the Southern Vermont Tournament and was slated to play Mount Saint Joseph on Friday evening. Biarch 2. This big tournament classic was to be played on Mount Saint Joseph's home court, an estimated advantage of 6 to 8 points, but instead of harboring bad feelings, the high spirited Spring- field team felt it more a challenge than a disadvantage and the team worked harder than ever. This was one of the most exciting see-saw battles in many years of tournament history, but despite tremendous odds, the unrelenting drive and scrap of the Machinetowners earned them the tight victory, 46-44. The Cosmos were only successful after pulling ahead in the final minutes and putting the game on ice by a very effective and efficient stall which gave them the right to play off with Rutland Saturday night for the Championship of the Southern Vermont Tournament. The green clad quintet from Springfield, realizing it was now or never as far as their present basketball career was concerned, entered the finals determined to whip the Rutland Raiders. As usual, the Cosmos were the predicted underdog, but that didn't stop them, as they forged ahead in the initial quarter and held the lead until the final horn. One important factor that decided the win, 35-24, was the superb double-teaming tactics devised by the crafty S.H.S. coach. Following the game, the Rutland Rotary director and other officials formally congratulated both teams, and speeches were given by the Honorable Mayor Healy and Lieutenant Governor Joseph B. Johnson. During the ceremonies, the winning trophy of the Class MAM Southern Vermont title was presented by Lieutenant Governor Joseph B. Johnson to Captain Norman Wallace, representing Springfield, the tourney champs. After pictures of the winning team had been taken and Coach Birsky had made his address conveying thanks and congratulations, the all-tourney team selections were announced as follows: Norman Wallace, Captain, Springfield; Richard Grace, Rutland; Tom Lov6tt, Mount Saint Joseph; Henry Colodonato, Mount Saint Joseph; and Francis Corbett of Bennington. The Springfield Cosmopolitans went through a week of intensive drilling and running before returning north again, this time to play the Northern Tourney winner, Spaulding, for the Class A Championship of the State of Vermont. The Cosmos' opponents again gained a big advantage because of the fact that the torunaraent play-off was on their home court; however, this had happened before and probably would again so that the underdog, Springfield, was intent on taking it in its stride. Edward Gosselin Forward The glass back boards of Spaulding were something new to the Green and White, but they later discovered that their greatest handicap was the inconsistency of violations called by the officials. The Springfield fans took this as the last straw, and even though the starting five were 57 together but five minutes during the entire game, the Springfield teamsters persisted in fighting with their hearts despite the overwhelming odds. With great determin- ation and guts, the Birskymen pulled ahead in the third canto by a four point margin, but then the unreasonable officiating began to take its toll as the two best re- bounders in the state left the game, in tears, via the foul route. It was almost hopeless at this point to imagine that the Cosmos could succeed, but still each player toiled unceasingly for the rightful place of Vermont1s best bas- ketball team of 1951. Each teammate of the Green and White was inspired by the other in an attempt to gain claim to the State Crown but the deficit was just too great for even Springfield, and the klaxon sounded the end of the 1950-1951 basketball season for Springfield High School and its seniors: Captain Norman Wallace, Richard Hopkins, Mike Gin- toff, Bernard Lucius, and Edward Gosselin. The final score was 50-48 in favor of Spaulding High School. Post game ceremonies were watched with anguish by the heartbroken Cosmos as their captain, Norman Wallace, receiv- ed the runner-up trophy from Lieutenant Governor Joseph B. Johnson only after brief congratulatory speeches were made by officials of the tournament and the mayor of the city. Spaulding, now the Vermont State Champions, were awarded gold basketballs, and the runner-up, Springfield, were given silver basketballs. Robert Salmond Forward In retrospect of this season s schedule, including tournament games, we find an impressive record of 16 wins and 5 losses. This is an exceptionally good record, considering the fact that three of the losses came while playing the first four game s • On March 19 in the early afternoon, the Springfield Rotarians very generously honored the Springfield basketball team, their coach, and other assisting faculty members by giving them a banquet. Coach Doggy Julian, guest speaker and present coach of Dartmouth College, gave a very impressive and inspiring after-dinner speech that was directed right at the players and Rotarians. This banquet that the Rotar- ians give each year for the Springfield teams is certainly a credit to them and shows a growing interest in the development of sportsmanship and character gained in playing basketball. The town, the school, and the players are all proud of Coach Birsky’s superb Job this year, and we, the seniors, wish him a future of good luck and success in the coaching profession.

Coach Birsky 59 ACTION SHOTS BASEBALL The 1951 high school baseball team should revive the interest in baseball, that for some time has been lacking in the school and town. The team has the possibili- ties of a successful season, if the team spirit and confidence can be developed with the added skill that comes from continual practice. This year. Coach Birsky has sufficient veteran strength to develop a good base- ball team. He is fortunate in losing only two of last year’s starting nine to grad- uation, Richard Coutermarsh and William Hastings, who both played in the outer gar- dens. It was unforeseen that we would be without the spark and dexterity of our last year’s outstanding catcher, Richard Sullivan. His enlistment into the armed service was a tough break for the team, but capable Robert Mitchell is taking over the responsibilities of this key position. An experienced and well balanced pitching staff will be another big asset to this year s team. A senior, a Junior, and a sophomore will discharge the duties of chucking the rugged 14 game schedule. These pitchers are right hand hurler Norman Wallace, a three year veteran; southpaw Richard Blais, a two year veteran; and the big right hander, Gary Richardson, who was used as utility man last year. The Infield will consist of three juniors and one senior who will occupy the hot corner”. Playing the bases we have at first, tall and adroit Robert Salmond; at second, the diminitive, but uncanningly accurate Philip Tarro; at third, big, fast, and aggressive Bernard Lucius; at shortstop, the clever and skillful Richard Wyman. Those that saw limited action in the infield last year were a sophomore, Roger Jaquith, a fast and alert ball player; and a junior, Richard Blais, who often exchanged his pitching glove for the first baseman’s mitt. In the outfield we have favorable prospects such as: Charles Johnson, a Junior, who last year was a valuable replacement; a senior, Norman Wallace, who often left the mound and played the field; a sophomore, Robert Barton, who has a keen eye and a good throwing arm; Lawrence Neilson and Elmer DeRosie, both seniors with experience, who can give the team added strength. The improved candidates that played on the Junior varsity baseball team last year may be called up and used to give the varsity added depth Also, high school students that played during the summer months on the American Legion Ball Club will be better prepared and more experienced to accept their positions on the Springfield High School baseball team.

The team has the possibili- ties of a successful season, if the team spirit and confidence can be developed with the added skill that comes from continual practice. This year. Coach Birsky has sufficient veteran strength to develop a good base- ball team. He is fortunate in losing only two of last year's starting nine to grad- uation, Richard Coutermarsh and William Hastings, who both played in the outer gar- dens. It was unforeseen that we would be without the spark and dexterity of our last year's outstanding catcher, Richard Sullivan. His enlistment into the armed service was a tough break for the team, but capable Robert Mitchell is taking over the responsibilities of this key position. An experienced and well balanced pitching staff will be another big asset to this year's team. A senior, a Junior, and a sophomore will discharge the duties of chucking the rugged 14 game schedule. These pitchers are right hand hurler Norman Wallace, a three year veteran; southpaw Richard Blais, a two year veteran; and the big right hander, Gary Richardson, who was used as utility man last year. The Infield will consist of three juniors and one senior who will occupy the hot corner . Playing the bases we have at first, tall and adroit Robert Salmond; at second, the dlmlnitive, but uncanningly accurate Philip Tarro; at third, big, fast, and aggressive Bernard Lucius; at shortstop, the clever and skillful Richard Wyman.

The Tennis Team should have a better than average season this year, with such veterans returning as William Vallee, Eugene Thibault, Robert Barnard, Neil Carey, and Neil Crandall. John Ragle has been appointed the new tennis coach and he expects great results from the team. At this time the schedule has not been announced. TRACK Prospects are looking very bright for the Track Team this year under the guidance of Coach Mackey. Several meets have already been scheduled with towns in Southern Vermont and New Hampshire. At the end of the season the team will travel to the District Meet. The team members qualifying in this meet are allowed to participate in the State Meet. The lucky ones qualifying there will then compete in a New England Meet. Members are as follows: Mile--Forrest Priest, David Davis Half Mile—Forrest Priest, Ernest Davis 440 Yd.

The work of this club is appreciated by everyone. WHAT-SO-EVER CLUB . , The What-So-Ever Club meets under the supervision of Miss Gary. The girls sew and make many useful things. The club is organized so that those who are inter- ested in handwork will be given valuable instruction in this line. FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE DRAMATICS This year the freshmen and sophomores have combined their dramatics clubs. Miss Torrey is their advisor. We all enjoyed the play, The Birds1 Christmas Carol , which they presented for the Christmas assembly. SENIOR DRAMATICS The juniors and seniors make up the Senior Dramatics Club. Mr. McLaughlin Is their advisor. The seniors did a wonderful piece of acting in the Senior Play, and we are sure the other members are top actors, too. LIBRARY CLUB J This club provides an excellent opportunity for girls who are interested In library work. With Mr. Otis as librarian-in-chief, they have charge of all books coming in or going out. UNITED NATIONS This club is headed by Miss Poljacik. Students meet once a week to discuss current events and world affairs. MAJORETTES Our vivacious twirlers have Diane Pockette as their leader. These girls de- lighted the crowds at games this year with their snappy exhibitions. CHEERLEADERS The PEP gals of Springfield High, under the supervision of Miss Cress, do a marvelous job of cheering our teams on to win. The 15 girls in squads of 5 really work, as they must try out for each game. SOCIAL COMMITTEE The class president and two representatives from each class make up the social committee. This group plans the parties and social events of the school. They also assign these functions to the individual classes to run. Mr. Heath is the advisor. GENERAL COUNCIL One member from every homeroom in junior and senior high work with Mr. Heath on the General Council. ’With Richard Hopkins as student leader, they function in a democratic manner, expressing the students desires in the business and problems they discuss. ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE The assembly committee is made up of a group of teachers and students. Their purpose is to plan the assembly programs for the school. They also contact and welcome guest speakers. LAPIDARY CLUB The Lapidary Club Is under the direction of Mr. Lerandeau. The main purpose of the club is to learn how to polish gem stones, although they also do some saw- ing, grinding, and cutting. Some of the members have prepared mineral specimen 66 exhibits for the glass show cases. SCIENCE CLUB This club is lucky enough to be able to take field trips. Miss McClelland is the advisor and the members discuss phases of science and biology. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The Photography Club has enjoyed a large membership this year. Some new equip- ment has been added and one of the students has been at work on an enlarger, which when completed, will make it possible for the club to do some very nice work.

The club provides an opportunity for further knowledge in the field of projection. MONITORS The stalwart sentinels in the halls keep our building quiet and orderly during passing. Mr. O’Leary is the advisor of this group which meets to discuss problems involved in their Job. GREEN HORN The school paper functions very successfully under the guidance of Mr. Ragle. Students do a bang-up Job of Journalism as they labor to meet deadlines. The off-set printing method is used, which cuts down on expense, and makes the work interesting as the students set up the pages themselves. CHESS AND CHECKERS This is an informal social club under the direction of Mr. Gentes, with no officers. The members just chat and play chess. They have tournaments in order to pick the best players. Their main purpose is enjoyment. (Picture not taken) 67 HOSTESS CLUB First Row: M. Chandler, B. Dexter, M. Coffin, P. Ball, D. ShattucK M. Pignato. Second Row: C. Dulao, M. Caron, M. MacDonald, P.
