Text from Pages 1 - 126 of the 1957 volume:

To these, who have served faithfully and long, we dedicate this book MABEL MURPHY | JOSEPH ELVIN MILDRED MARTENSEN In the early twenties, shortly after the Trade School occupied its then new building on Spring Street, Miss Mabel Sheehan, now Mrs. Murphy, joined the staff as Office Clerk. From the beginning her genial personality and friendly attitude won for her the esteem of both students and teachers. She has served the schoo! faithfully and well, and thereby has earned the right to many years of happy retirement. Visiting the school in the future will not seem the same without her friendly greeting. I wish her every happiness for many, many years. Geo. A. Burridge, retired Former Principal Mr. Joseph Elvin whose retirement after 33 years as a teacher-photog- rapher will reward him with time to pursue his many hobbies down on Martha’s Vineyard. Following his technical education at Worcester Poly- technical Institute and teacher-training at Fitchburg State Teachers Col- lege, he entered the teaching profession at the Smith Vocational School in Northampton. Upon completion of one year at Northampton he trans- ferred to the Springfield Trade High School where he spent his next 32 years. May good health and happiness follow you for many years to come! A sadness prevails as Mrs. Mildred Ward Martensen, principal’s assist- ant in charge of business and finance, announces her retirement effective at the end of the school year after serving in her present capacity for the past seventeen years. Previous to the Trade High School assignment she had served as principal’s assistant in the Homer Street Elementary School. Her contribution to a smooth running office has been greatly appreciated and admired by the Massachusetts Division of Vocational Education and by the Springfield Public School System. We join with Mr. Herrick of the State Department in saying, “It has been a pleasure to deal with her in the discharge of her official responsibilities and to wish her many years of good health and happiness in her retirement.” Kost O. 7 ) IV vi MR. WALTER J. MARKHAM, Director Division of Vocational Education The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Mr. Markham's spirit of helpfulness and his sympathetic under- standing of our daily school problems are truly appreciated by our faculty and students. “Ayno0} ay, pun sjuapnjs aut Yyiog Aq pawosjam shomyo 81D SIIAPD PUD SHISIA Jay] “jOOYDS YBI apnsy jo sseiBoid ous ul paysesaju!

SPEER COUNSELOR Iu Memoriam In Tribute to Carl Johnson We, the students and faculty of Trade High School, wish to pay high tribute to a teacher who served faithfully and well for thirty-seven years in the schools of our city. We regret his passing on November 17, 1956, only three years after his retirement. Mr. Johnson will be remembered through the years for his skill and high standards of craftsmanship as exemplified by the wood-finishing in the library of our school. Such an accomplishment would have been impossible without his patience, his understanding of the difficulties confronting in- experienced students and his marked attention to detail. He emphasized for us so well the true meaning of our Trade High School motto: “He who hath a trade hath an estate.” May the example he set for us help us to reach our goal. Requiescat in Pace Presidents Message As we leave Trade High, we will leave behind memories of the good times we have shared here. Most of all we will remember members of the faculty for their understanding and consideration. As we go into our various fields of activity we will have to use our own initiative to succeed. It will not be the same as school; we will not have our teachers with us to help influence our decisions; we must be prepared to make them for ourselves. I know that all of my classmates will go out and become good citizens in their respective communities and work hard to succeed. I would like to thank our senior class advisors for the time and effort expended for class activities. I would also like to thank my fellow students for electing me their president. It was a great honor to serve the class. It is my wish for the graduating class of 1957 that the future years may be successful, happy and satisfying.

Trade High School is where we have decided to spend the next three years in pursuit of job training. Excited, nervous, anxious—everything is so new, so won- derful, that we have to stop and wait for our hearts to slow down as we gaze at the beautiful buildings, walk down the spacious halls into the vast gym, the cafeteria and the classrooms. We will always remember this day, September 1954. Life at Trade High School became very interesting. We met fellow classmates with whom we were to spend the next three years and teachers who would be a vital part of our lives and help us achieve our goals. Our first year was spent without the usual fanfare giving the limelight to the upper classmen. June soon came, and we were on the way to becoming full-fledged Juniors. September 1955: Once again we walk along the familiar corridors that seemed so huge to us last year. Our first class meeting was held and on December 7, 1955, elections took place, supervised by the Student Council. A picture of our officers was published in the local newspapers. The entire class was preparing for the many events which have made our school life so interesting. The first thing on the agenda was the subject of class rings. Two weeks were set aside to discuss the kind of ring we would choose. Finally a unamimous decision was reached and the order was placed with a $5.00 deposit from each of us. We were really excited as we went down to the main office to determine our sizes. November: A steer ing committee was chosen from the Junior Class which consisted of two members from each shop. In December: The holiday spirit prevailed and Christ- mas parties were held throughout the school then off for the vacation holidays. Our first dance was held February 10, beginning with a tag sale. The stubs were deposited in an attractive heart- shaped box. During the evening, two names were drawn and prizes given, after which an election was held for a king and queen. George Bernier was selected king and Sylvia Dudley was selected queen. It was a very colorful and successful affair! This closed our activities until after Easter. Flash! A pet saying of the class members went like this: “Hi—Trade, Trade—Hi!” This was said while passing another fellow classman in the corridor. On April 14, we were honored with an invitation from Commerce High School to observe Career Day with high school juniors from all over the city. This we found very interesting because it helped us to gather more informa- tion about our chosen trades. We had an opportunity to talk with representatives from various fields and learned first hand what employers expect of us when we actually go to work. The time soon came for the fabulous Tradescapades in which many of the juniors participated. This production was professional show “biz” and gave many of us an opportunity to exhibit our talents. A farewell dance was given by the juniors henoring the graduating class. It proved to be a very delightful affair. June: It is now time for our annual Field Day. The traditional rope pull was held which was won by the Freshman. There were many other enjoyable activites in which the Juniors put on an excellent show. June 15: All through the corridors we see excited class- men extending their hands so that all may see the rings they had just received. The next day was the annual Junior Girl’s Play Day at Blunt Park. We were challenged to a softball game by Commerce High. The game chalked up another great vic- tory for Trade. Time was growing short, bringing the close of school just around the corner. Many picnics and farewell parties were being held throughout the school giving us all the opportunity of saying goodby to our teachers and friends. September, 1956: At last! We are now Seniors! “Lo and behold”, we made it! Everyone was looking for- ward to having one of the busiest and best senior years in the history of Trade High. Our first class meeting took place on September 13. We got right down to business: we elected our steering com- mittee, decided on the class dues, and nominated our class officers. Campaigns were at a high level especially since it was also the year our country would chose its president. Elections were held September 25. Next plans for a senior class picture were made and followed through. A meeting was held and many city photographers were present to display their works. A vote was taken and Loring Studio was_ selected. Soon proofs were beginning to pour in. At our next meeting, it was decided that the girl’s caps and gowns would be white and the boys’, blue with yellow tassles. A notice was sent around to all the classes an- nouncing that all Seniors were to report to the auditorium to be measured for their caps and gowns. Later, an Autumn Dance was planned. This dance was given to greet the students to our beloved school. We re- membered how lost freshmen could feel in so large a school. Many meetings were held to discuss future activites. Plans for the Senior class trip, which is taken every year, were discussed. Wanting to be different, the class decided a trip to Washington would be one of the greatest educa- tional opportunities a student could have. This trip will never be forgotten. We had a wonderful time and many interesting experiences. The seniors next attended a Christmas dance given by the Medical Assistants. This was a delightful affair with lovely snowflake decorations and an opportunity to wear our best “bibs and tuckers.” We opened the new year with our Senior Class lunch- eon. The menu was excellent. It included turkey and all the fixings. No Senior left the table hungry and everyone was pleased with the dressed-up appearance of his class- mates. A meeting was held to select a committee for our Prom and Banquet. Then we proceeded with the plans of select- ing a place where this memorable affair would be held. Having gathered information on four well known estab- lishments, the names were brought before the Senior stu- dent body and were voted upon. The Highland Hotel re- ceived the majority vote and the date was set for the twenty-fourth of April. We are hoping that this will be a tremendous success. This day is the beggining of all the final Senior activities for the year. This will include the Prom, the class trip, picnic, class day, field day and, last but not least, gradua- tion. This will always be looked upon as pne of our most memorable days—Graduation Day, June 12, 1957. By Judy Marr, Bernadette Watson Antoinette Remillard Class Prophecy “INTO THE FOURTH DIMENSION” One night as we, Donald Buggs, Annette James, Toni Veto, Mickey Dagenais and Coral Freeze were wracking our brains trying to write the prophecy for the class of ‘57 in the Springfield Public Library, an elderly gentleman approached us. He was short, bald-headed and dressed in black He wore thick eyeglasses and looked very scholarly. We were startled by his penetrating stare. Being a courteous group, we asked, “May we heip you?” With a raise of the eyebrows and a curious smirk on his face he replied, ‘No, but I believe I can help you!” After we offered him a seat, he introduced himself as Dr. Smittenbach, a scientist. Overcome by curios- lity we asked how he felt he could help us. He explained that he had developed a fantastic “time machine” which he wanted to test. He had overheard our conversation concerning the prophecy and asked us if we would be willing to go on the test run of his new invention. Being daring and quite desperate at this point, we agreed to go along. As we left the library with the mysterious Dr. Smittenbacn, the black clouds overhead burst into torrents of rain. We made a dash for his car and then we were surprised at how quickly we reached the outskirts of town where his laboratory was located. He led us through a house which was cluttered with blueprints, diagrams and old books. Past these we came to a subterranean laboratory. In the center of the room was a huge metallic sphere with stairs leading to an almost invisible door. As we slowly rose upward, the door slid silently open. Upon entering we noticed the straps, facing in the opposite direction. He explained that at no time inside was completely barren except for six metal chairs equipped with would we leave the ship. He further stated that if we concentrated, we would discover that the wall acted as a one way mirror window. We would be able to see what was going on outside the ship, but the people could not see us. As he pressed the first BUTTON, there was a loud humming sound and for a short time we seemed to black out. When we recovered, we saw a building on which there was a sign read- ing, “Bernie Watson and Claire Lemoine, Hip Reducing Salon.” Below us a small robot called, “Get your Lambert Gazette here.” On the first page was a picture of a group of girls under the caption, “Marr Models Chosen Tops of the Year.” They were Judy Marr, Nanci Leavitt, Ethel Goodrich and Donna Leavitt. a line of people in front of a long ship, on which a sign read, “Honeymoon They will appear at the 7-11 Club, owned by Chas Greenbaum, well known man about town. This scene was blotted out by a huge exhaust of smoke. As is cleared we saw before us a mammoth “space port.’’ Coming closer we saw Express to the Moon.” As we passed we saw Ann Remillard, Dave Willis, Sylvia Dudley, Dennis Gallacher, Bob Charron, Judith Dearborn, Robert Begin, Gloria Sarnacki, John Moran and Marilyn Masure climbing aboard. Farther along we saw Mickey and Toni Dagenais’ beautiful new home. It was a made over barn with a broken window and a patched up door. In the front of the house, ‘Moose” was repairing an old beat-up Plymouth Arthur Chapman was mowing the huge lawn. We suddenly came to a stop directly over the Severns’ home. We saw shoes, pots, pans and rolling pins crashing through the windows. Annette turned to Coral and said, “Joan and Janette must be at it again.” With a jolt we were off again. There was a blinding flash. As the smoke cleared we passed a sign which marked “Skin- ner‘s Gun Powder Factory.” Mickey yelled excitedly, “Bob goofed again.” After we recovered from the tremendous blast we were off again. Soon we came to the Land of “Parks and Flowers.’”’ As we passed overhead we saw Peg McGuane, Charlie Pepe, Claire Rolland and Niles O’Neil strolling along romantically. We spotted Jim Pooler and Annette Sacco sitting very close together on a bench! As we continued on our way, we saw Richie Rickson and Shirley Fermin having a picnic and it appeared that Richie was paying more attention to Shirley than to his food. Further on we observed Gerald- ine McCarthy running her fingers through John Roger’s hair when we saw Don Mastrangleo talking to Coral Freeze, Mickey affirmed, “Don’s on the hunt again.” Then into view came a car, and who should we see in it but Ed Connelly and Stella Skowron. The sign on the back read....Whoops!!!! The professor pushed the second BUTTON and we were transported in- to a glamorous night club. Our luck was holding out, for we were just in time for the ‘Real ‘N Rattle Show.” “Desirable” Dobek was on the stage singing “Hound Dog” Johnny Guillory and his “Off Keys” were supplying the music. The band consised of Bob Tosoni on the squeeze box, John Guil- lory on the ivories, the great Ray Temple on the horn, Dave McNally hot on the “skins,” while Daniel Moore was stretching the “strings.” The rest of the band were Jay Callahan, sax; Eugene Campbell, claronet; Edward Budz, guitar and Ronald Buggs on the trombone. After “Desirable” fin- ished singing the floor show came on. Guillory raised his hand and a terri- fic fan fare brought on stage Jack Rioni, Kevin Beecher, Joseph Albano, William Allard, Aldo Gennari, Bill Griffin, Howard Jenkins, Wayne Jam- ison, Mike Haskell, Dave Kelly, George Lackman, Paul Lambert and Fran- cis Manning dressed as chorus girls doing the Can-Can. After this act came Bill Bartels, cardboy, holding a little card saying “Act Three.” As the music started for the next number, Annette James came drifting out with John Langille to sing “Love Is Queer.” Then the fabulous “Droopy Notes,” featuring Frank Caruso with Neil Curran, Ernest Flamand, Paul Parks, George Bernier, George Bready, Ronald Brace and Edwin Boregsy enter- tained us with a beautiful arrangement of “Why Do Fools Flip their Lids.” With a delightfully mysterious look on his face, the Doctor leaned for- ward, reached to the left side of the wall and pulled a small lever. Suddeniy a mass of electronic activity as if a lightning bolt had flared across the wall, appeared. When we could see again we found ourselves directly over Chester Dyl’s Speedway. Lady Luck was with us, for we were in time for the big race-of-the-day. At the starting line were Bob Cote, Richie Davis, George DePonte, Eugene Fontaine, Thomas Foley, Ted Granski, Roy Gate, Ken Gagnon and Robert Gosselin. Their mechanics were Douglas Hastings, Russell Jenkins, Holland Johnson, Ken Jones, Paul Kazasoz, Rog Cote, Dan- iel Cuthbert, Edward Marcoux and Robert Condon. Track owner “Pickles” fired the gun to start the race. It was a close one all the way. As the cars advanced toward the finish line it seemed that the ‘““mechanics” had won the race. What a mixup! The ears. were total wrecks. “4 From here we were transported to where it appeared a political rally was taking place. A sign above the speaker read, ‘“Republicrats, Ahead in ’77.” The speaker we recognized as Bob St. Germain who was running for City Councilman in Springfield. Earl Swanson was in the front row holding a sign which read, “St. Germain will soon win fame.” We had such a fantas- tic variety of experiences, we decided to try for more. Toni asked if we could see a baseball game by any chance. The Doctor said, “Certainly.” He reached to his right and pushed a third button. We then found ourselves in Sarasota, Florida, where we saw a vicious game going on between the Springfield Giants and the All-City Semi Pro Team. On the All-City team} were William Bren, Martin Condon, Gerard Couture, Daniel Czochara, Ciro Delnegro, Robert DeSaine, Leonard Sienko, and Paul Mawaka. ’Thomas Meissner, Ronald Mongeon, John Montifusco, Jack Morse, Richard Mottle, and Roland Nashville were on the Giant’s team. The coach was Richie Fitzgerald and the manager Don Forget. In the audience we recognized William O’Neill, Edwin Osinski, Charles Petrucci, Richard Pezanetti, Whitney Philbrook, John Phillips and George Pinney. The waterboy was Francis Olearcek. Just past the ball park was a beach. Playing four hand catch were John Potorski, Willie Rodd, Robert Sansoucy, and Leigh Rogers. Trying to get a tan were Tom Smart and Roger Theverage. Building castles in the sand were Carol Misco with Steven Wilkes and Joan Forkey with Carl Vogel. Leaving this scene we came to Dave Vallee’s Fighting Arena. Inside, “‘Kil- ler” Iieman and “Kayo” Walker were engaged in “Fisticuffs.” Managers, George Vermette for “Killer” and Walter Wilsa for “Kayo.” The ref- eree was William Wolpert; time keeper, Richard Woodbury; seconds, Allan Woodrow, George Kisser, and the doctor, Carl Fisher. Again the scene changed—We saw a huge granite building surrounded by a dark grey wall. As we came closer, we saw metal bars on the win- dows. Directly over a huge arch was a sign which read, “Ling-Ling Pris- on—Warden, Robert Motyka.” The inmates were having an exercise period in the yard. The air was charged with suspense! An attempted “break” was being discussed in quiet undertones. Jim Kelley was the leader and action revolved around him and Al Clowes, who had sneaked out the night before through a flood-water pipe to the outside and arranged for the getaway cars. He had returned safely before he was missed by the guards. John Youmell, Francis Chlebus and Charles Clemons were waiting to drive them to freedom. James Bombardier had drawn plans of the prison and Peter Carpenter and Lawrence Mandeville had printed them for each escapee. John Chartier’s assignment was to inactivate all electrical systems and tobert Chauvin had the same assignment for all outside radio contacts. The time drew near—4:07—All were at their prearranged places. Every- thing pointed to the biggest break ever attempted. The guards, Lester Lan- gevin, Ken Hamilton and Don Lucas were caught off guard and by the time they realized the gravity of the situation, it was almost over. The prison was in utter chaos with the escapees about to speed away to freedom. Pur- suit was hampered by the power failure, but all of a sudden rate The lights in the huge movie theatre were turned on and we realized that this scene was just part of the “fabulous, stupendous, collossal’”’ motion picture, “Operation, Solitary Confinement in 107,” directed by Hollywood’s newest and best team of modern movie producers, Joe Pelletier and Bob Pepper. This production was the Academy Award Winner for 1977. Roland Blais received the Award for most Spectacular Lighting Effects and George Batchelor for Unusual Sound Effects. As We Were observing the presentation of many awards, imagine our surprise and pleasure, when “Best Actress of the Year’ was introduced by the MC as Mary Zajac, and “Best Actor’ turned out to be the handsome favorite, James Weke, who had changed his name to Stone Fisher, for professional reasons. Outstanding performances by a Canine Star won an Award for Run-Ton-Ton VI, accepted by his trainer, Stuart Thompson In the audience we recognized such celebrities as Zachary Padworski, George Rider and Jeanne Perrault. As the curtain of the huge stage fell gracefully together for the last of the many curtain calls for each celebrity, we felt much like Cinderellas af- ter “twelve” with nothing left of the glamour we had witnessed. For here We were again—sitting in the Public Library, with time running out before closing. The evening had not been wasted, for now we knew the pattern of the future. Our eyes glowed and our pens flew to record the glimpses of 1977, truly “A FOURTH DIMENSION.” ‘skep ' jooyss Ysty spery, Addey Jo yooq ArowuU oy} OF Avp e SVM FI [Te UL [TV “PT 0} 12 SAISsoudull UB YILM “YSTH [voIsse[O WIJ UOSBIS BY} JO AIOPIA 4SAY SI UOM YOIyM ‘Surv, [[BqQ}00F 9} YIM UOISeddO SITY} UO JYUST[JOdS oy} pereys pueg eYJ, ‘UOISIOoId [eorsnur Addeus YIM ynqop 1G “9G6T [800[ S}I opeut AYso[eg preuog “A JO UorzooaIp ejqedvo oy} topun pueg [ooys Ysty oy} S¥ plely O4e[4}V pe}eorpep A[MOU BY} UO [OOYIS opel], LOJ UOOUTEITe JeOIS B SEM YT NOLLVOIGSG GHIA OLLATHLY MAN ee Class Wil On this 14th day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundréd and fifty-seven, we, the members of the Senior Class of Springfield Trade High School, do hereby will and bequeath the following, to the under- graduates and teachers, in the hope that the items enumerated within this document may be used to their individual and mutual benefit.

This was organized under the experienced guidance and co- operation of the Springfield Institution for Savings. The bank, established in October, 1956 grew to a total of 1329 deposits totaling $10,230.79 by May, 1957. Banking became everybody’s business and thrived under the encouraging supervision of Mr. Cross of the Spring- field Institution for Savings and Miss Bawn of our faculty.
