Presentitg ; 1962 — BERNARDIAN ST. BERNARD’S HIGH SCHOOL Fitchburg, Massachusetts i 5 RR aii i eM i a ame ™ AAR ee rs Bernard's Ftigh School Htchburg . . . Massachusetts ae? ... Because Youre Ours... TG 5 Qa 7C Hise you're ours, our alma mater, we love and praise you. Why do we love you? Not because you are the most modern of high schools. In fact, you are the oldest of our three city high schools and so old that many of our fathers and mothers have walked the same corridors, climbed the same stairs, and sat at the same seats that we occupy today. But in spite of your age, you are still a beautiful school, well preserved and never allowed to become run-down, shabby, or drab. Those who know and appreciate a well-built building, marvel at the strength and resistance of your foundation and walls to the wear and tear of the years. You are like that house built upon a rock mentioned in St. Matthew, 7:24-27, which did not fall when “the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew.” Throughout the years, the winds of adversity have beaten against you also. You were only three years old when the greatest of all depression periods, that of 1929, began and continued through the ’30’s. How- ever, you managed to produce a Bernardian yearbook during every one of these trying years, although some years did show a deficit. During these years you saw your boys and girls leave you at graduation with no bright prospects facing them, only the grim reality of being forced to join the ranks of the millions of un- employed. During World War II, your gym was the shelter for the entire school in the air-raid drills. You witnessed the departure of some of your undergraduates and many of your graduates, boys and girls, to enter the armed services, knowing only too well that some of them would never again return to their alma mater. But all this does not give us the reasons why we love you. These go far deeper than your material structure and past history. We love you because of your friendly spirit which reaches out and envelopes each and every one of us. We love you because we find happiness within your walls, not only in the con- genial companionship of our classmates but in our daily contacts with our principal, Father Donahue, and our faculty, who look upon us as God and our parents look upon us—each one of us as an individual, a very important person, and not as a collection of names recorded in roll books, marking books, and permanent record cards. You are interested in us because of what we are and are to become, and you take a personal interest in each of us, trying to make us develop the best that is in us. Because of our immortal souls and our eternal destiny, you keep before us our importance as children of God and potential heirs to the kingdom of heaven. REVEREND ROBERT T. DONAHUE Principal of St. Bernard’s High School S ee oe os MOST REVEREND BERNARD J. FLANAGAN, D.D. ishop of Worcester B in Dedication... Mr. Chomas P. Cane ... Because You're Ours... Our coach and teacher, who began your career at SBHS four years ago when we did... Our never-to-be-forgotten JSR advisor who helped us to make it such a big success . . Our sincere friend never too busy to listen and help us . to you we dedicate our 1962 Bernardian. Little Tommy Lane finds the bars of the iron railing outside the office an ideal setup in taking those first precarious steps. Greater confidence and moral support in the gigantic undertaking for such a little fellow of eleven months are afforded by the ale rt presence of mother Nancy. When the cornerstone of our high school was laid in 1926, it was intended to be a high school for St. Bernard’s parish. But a few years later, it became a central high school for all the parishes in the area. Today pupils attend SBHS from seventeen or more parishes, and from parishes as far distant as Ashburnham and Westminster. Gradually in the course of the years, ten additional classrooms and a Home Economics Lab have been added. But as these are not sufficient to accommodate all who apply for admission, further additions to the school may be made in the near future. e hed Sana 5 ha a. aoe a oe oe oS mR ; Enz 3 Aas r i TTT Tt 34++4+-1444-44 ' - : ' ; : } } ; i ; ; : - : : : : : ; f About thirty-five years ago, the Sisters of the Presentation transferred with their pupils from the high school in the girls’ school on Middle Street, to the fine new building on Harvard Street, built by Monsignor Donnelly, the pastor of St. Bernard’s. Adjacent to the school, at the corner of Summer and Harvard streets, the old Page mansion had been converted into a convent. Later the Cookman property, at the corner of Summer and Goodrich streets was acquired for another convent. 422 a eoetr oe i bd eee ae pene «er gy ? uM ae Betta we. Returning to school at the beginning of our Junior year, we found the older of the two convents had a new look. Gone were the Ionic columns and the ornamental railings of the past. Old age‘ and decay had necessitated the changes to more sturdy wooden columns, cement, and iron railings. oe % ie me sie 2 eae R Aare ; FY ee if, Rs ie a, 10 Because you're our team, we support you and stand by you in victory or defeat, as in this game with FHS.

Such a one was the Christmas dance of '59 with its “Winter Wonder- land” theme and everything so silvery white in decoration. A terrific blizzard raging all day made it seem for a while that the dance would be called off, but in spite of this a record crowd packed the school auditorium. PTA mothers were also on hand in the gym with tables laden with delicious dainties. Some sophomores also attended the senior prom held in the school auditorium on the evening of May 20. This event had for its theme “When We're Young.” The newly renovated hall was made more beautiful by the delicacy and simplicity of the artistic decorations. Denise Plette, Sandra Frye, and Joyce Hurtubise, with their escorts, on line at the refreshment tables set up in the gym. In the forefront, Cecile Moyen and Mary Mullen dance with their partners. Richard Blouin helps in the success of the prom by checking. Forging ahead as Juniors We entered our Junior year with an enrollment of 205.

These gitls formed an important part of twenty- one Bernardian choristers who appeared at the Vo- cation Institute at St. Cecilia’s church Sunday, March 12, at 8 p.m., and a few months later at an assembly of the entire student body. The June 1961 issue of the Blue and Gold was the work of these junior journalists who took over for the senior staff, now busy with prom and gradu- ation plans. This issue was made most attractive by the fine art work of Linda Fontaine and Laima Vrubliauskas. Blue and Gold staffers: David Catalini, Brian McDonald, John Stanley, Laima Vrubliauskas, and Judith Marchetti. Other junior staffers—seated: Patricia Morrissey, Barbara Romano, Jo-Ann Cechin. Standing: Linda McCarthy, Frances Fournier, Virginia Rutigliano, Elizabeth Lewis, and Rita Burns. The class of ’62 has been active from freshman days in the production of the school paper, the Blue and Gold. Twelve of these journalists as juniors attended the annual convention of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association held in New York City, March 9, 10, and 11: David Catalini, Jo-Ann Cechin, Arlene Grenier, Donna Ingemie, Elizabeth Lewis, Faith Marcy, Linda McCarthy, Brian McDonald, Jo-Ann Piccicuto, Barbara Romano, Virginia Rutigliano, and Kathleen Sullivan.

ISK a thriller A Ride On A Rainbow was the theme of the juniors’ reception to the seniors. his big event took place on Saturday evening, April 15, in the school audi- torium. Michael Enwright, Arlene Grenier, Brian McDonald, and Linda Fontaine, in collaboration with Mr. Lane, de- veloped this theme in a production that carried the seniors over the rainbow of four colorful years at SBHS to their futuristic pot of gold. The reception began with a banquet served in the gym. At its close, all went up to the auditorium for the entertain- ment which began with a flashback of frosh days. In this ‘Sentimental Jour- ney,” the class of ’61 was reminded that they acted grown up and silly, always Swinging On A Star but it took time to mature and nobody knew Where or When it came from. At the end of their first year, SBHS was Getting to Know Them. Me And My Shadow danced to a medley of Somewhere Over the Rain- bow. After an original classroom skit was enacted, the chorus then reminded the seniors that when they leave school, They'll Never Walk Alone for God will be always Going Their Way. Seniors were exemplified in a mock assembly skit and others had to take the stand to proclaim some of their crimes on The Day that the Rains Came. But all had a happy ending when the members of the skit reassured the seniors, in song, of their high regard for them. Marcia Gallagher, solo dancer. First row: D. Charpentier, A. Grenier, E.

The minutes before our JSR performance were busy ones as we helped one another with the make-up. These shots are typical of what was taking place in many other groups. Anne Hemingway’s dark eye- brows are being further accen- tuated by Sheila Daly. The two-in-one mirror comes in handy as Mary Jane Pellegrini and Edward DeCosta put on the finishing touches. Margaret O'Connor is doing a fine job on David Catalini. Mrs. Lane is on hand also to direct facial operations and is put- ting cold cream now on Jane Mathieu. Pauline Vigneault deftly ap- plies the eyebrow pencil on Dorothy Kelly. The entertainment over, the seniors descended to a rainbow disguised gym, entering through a heavenly-pink decor of cloudy mists to pots of gold filled with memorable keepsakes. Tired juniors were happy to see the seniors enjoying themselves as they danced through paths of flowered trees and classic columns, a fitting climax to another successful JSR. The fountain of imported “rainbow” water was something to stop at and admire as Raymond Arsenault and Mary Anne Bergeron are doing. Adding to the attractive color scheme of the gym are the gowns worn by this sextette of junior girls—Carol Burke, Patricia Cramer, Jane Osborn, Concetta Marabello, Joan Poirier, and Barbara Baril.

It is he also who gave and made popular the beautiful name of Our Lady. To inspire us to have the greatest confidence in Mary, St. Bernard expounds at great length and with much eloquence in his sermons on the doctrine of the mediation of Mary and her role in the dispensation of grace. Mary is the mediatrix between Jesus and us. We know that Christ is the great Mediator between God and man; He is good and merciful but He has been appointed by his Father to judge the world. It is not the same with Mary, to whom belongs goodness, gentleness, and mercy, but not judg- ment and justice. Mary is the dispenser of every grace. This doctrine was not new with St. Bernard but it was he who, in the twelfth century, expounded this teaching and made it popular throughout the entire church. “It is the will of God that we have all things through Mary,” Bernard says in his sermon on her nativity. All the graces Jesus has merited for us have been given us through her mediation. She is the channel by which the divine waters reach us. In the words of our school motto, Gratiam Per Mariam Quaeramus, “Let us seek grace through Mary,” as our good patron St. Bernard bids us do, and tells us further- more that God has willed that nothing should be given us that has not passed through the hands of Mary. Because of this doctrine which he taught, St. Bernard had the gr eatest confidence in Our Blessed Mother and tells us that in our difficulties, in our sorrows, and in our temptations, to lift our eyes to heaven towards Mary, towards this star of the sea. St. Bernard counsels us to imitate Mary, to follow her example, and to pray to her for: “When we follow her we do not lose the way, when we pray to her we do not despair. When she holds us we do not fall, when she protects us we fear nothing, when she guides us we do not weary, when she is favorable, we reach the harbor.” Ave Maria, gratia plena Per Mariam In Memortam Sister Mary Joan To us seniors, room 44 will always be associated with Sister Mary Joan. How well we remember her—a little Sister, to be sure, but one full of energy and very forceful and dynamic in putting her subject across and making us like it even though some of us were prejudiced from the start against a subject we felt we never did like and knew we never would like! We were very fond of Sister, not because she was easy, for we remember how we worked, the good order that always prevailed in the classroom and how well we did our little homeroom duties once Sister had assigned them to us and told us what she expected from us. But we were always happy in room 44 for Sister had a fine sense of humor and enjoyed a good laugh with all of us when something funny hap- pened. How she laughed when we presented her with Julius Caesar bookends after she had waxed enthusiastically over his achievements! Sister took a personal interest in each one of us and even after we left her classes, she did not forget us, but still looked upon us as her boys and girls. Whenever we met her in passing and there was no time for an exchange of words, we could. always expect a welcome smile of recognition. Sister was young to die but she was brave in facing death. On her return from the hospital, it was her wish to continue the teaching of religion to her homeroom pupils. The close of school saw everything in order in room 44 with report cards and all the other records completed and in Sister’s own handwriting. But Sister was not able to finish her catechetical work at St. John’s in Townsend where for eight years she had gone on Sunday morning. Although not present bodily with her little first communicants, she was with them in spirit. Those who watched by her bedside tell us that her favorite prayer was the one she had so often taught to the boys and girls preparing for their first Holy Communion, and especially the first line— “Take my body, Jesus.’’ Jesus did not delay in granting Sister's request for on July 23, 1961, He took her to Himself. And what a heavenly reward of life everlasting awaited her, who had left father and mother, brothers and sisters, to dedicate her life to His service! Sister’s teach- ing apostolate would also entitle her to be of that number mentioned in Daniel, 12:3, that instruct many to justice and who shall shine as stars for all eternity. Requiescat in pace! 55 Five second-year junior typists received pins at the Award as- sembly of June 12 for typing speeds of 60 words per minute for a ten-minute test.

But 1962 will be for us an unforgettable date and on a par with 1492 and 1776. We know that 1962 may go down in history as a very important year for mankind, surely not because of our graduation in a small little cor- ner of God’s great universe, but be- cause of the Ecumenical Council which, it is now thought, may convene in the fall of ’62. When Pope John XXIII summoned an ecumenical or world-wide coun- cil of the Church, he assumed a gigantic undertaking and used extra- ordinary means to fulfill Christ's charge to preserve and proclaim the message of salvation. In the nearly two thousand years of Church _his- tory, there have been only twenty ecumenical councils. In inviting the Christian com- munities separate from Rome to this council, Pope John is doing something very dear to the loving heart of Christ, Who wishes: “That they may all be One, as Thou, Father, in Me and I in Thee; that they also may be one in Us; that the world may believe that Thou has sent Me.” This appeal has been directed to the fallen-away Churches of the East- ern Rites who nevertheless retain the apostolic succession in their hier- archy. It is most probable that other Christian groups will be invited to send observers to this council. As members of Christ's Mystical Body on earth, we can do our part in praying for the success of this council. David Houle and Faith Marcy, co-chair- men of the Christmas Dance of 1961. co aang e “ ... Because You're Our Senior Class... 59 As juniors many of us were able to attend the graduation exercises of the class of ’61, be- cause of the ample seating capac- ity of the Bernadian Bowl. Now that ours will be the next graduation, we hope that it will be like this one of ’61 with ideal weather. We also want to have His Excellency, our bish- op, present our diplomas to us, assisted by Monsignor Martin and Father Donahue. We want to be favored also with the presence of Monsignor O’Brien, our -diocesan superintendent of schools. We know that our president, Michael Enwright, will be the salutatorian. But who will be the valedictorian? as ree gs 3aai38 nadaen September 13 was a momentous day in our high school career for it marked that big event to which we had so long looked for- ward—our senior class elections. Even though we were the first: class at SBHS to have a junior class election, none of the thrills of this senior one were lost thereby. Beginning with the nominations in each of the four senior homerooms, everything went along smoothly and without loss of time. Our next move was to the auditorium with our ballots and pencil. In voting each office, Father Donahue an- nounced the three highest candidates nominated and we voted for one of these 60 Immediately after our class election, Father Dona- hue congratulated the new- ly-chosen officers of the class of ’62: President Michael Enwright Vice-President Linda Fontaine Treasurer John Stanley Secretary Jo-Ann Cechin JOHN EMMETT STANLEY 51 Connors Street, Fitchburg Jovial John, our class treasurer of ‘Mr. World” fame; a powerhouse of courage in all he attempts; reaches out to many activities; dramatics; athletic manager; CYC; Blue and Gold.

Each of these parishes is one unit in a collection of units which form our. dio- cese of Worcester, under our bishop, Most Reverend Ber- nard J. Flanagan, D.D., who, like all of our other bishops, is a successor of the Apostles. Each of our parishes has a pastor appointed by our bishop, who acts in his parish in the bishop’s name, and who is responsible for the salvation of all souls within his parish. Our parish is the gate. of heaven for each of us for through it we come to know God, love Him more ardent- ly, and serve Him more loyal- ly by doing His will always.

Jakelyn Frame and Sharon Mance are from Fort Devin. All within the parish profess the one true Faith of Christ, are united to Him in the Mass and the sacraments, and recognize in their law- fully appointed pastor the authority of Christ Himself to teach, govern, and sanctify. Each parish has its church where the people of God assemble to worship. Worship of God is our first and all-pervading duty. It means more than hearing Mass on Sundays and holy- days, and receiving the sacraments frequently. It means that we return love to God by ful- filling His law always in the love of God and neighbor.

The oneness of the Church is seen in the parish’s unity of belief, practice, and gov- ernment. The holiness of the Church is reflected in the people of God, the aos or laity, who are ministered to in the spiri- tual life by Christ Himself in the person of the priest. Like the Church, the parish is catholic for it reaches out to all who live within its bounds—baptized and un-— baptized, Catholic and non- Catholic. The apostolic mark of the Church is found in the parish for the pastor is the fully ac- credited representative of the successor of the Apostles, the bishop of the diocese. From the cradle to the grave the life of the Christian is bound up with whatever par- ish he lives in. But regardless of where he is, the nearby parish church is his true home. oa Z ST.

For he who comes to God must believe that God exists and is a rewarder to those who seek Him.” (Heb. xi. 6). 100 Faith in Action, our senior religion course, aims to strengthen our faith in the basic truths about God, Christ, and the Church. A deeper under- standing of these already known truths leads to a deeper appreciation and more intense living of our Faith in our daily lives. We are also better equipped to defend our Faith. Faith is presented to us in such a way that we can readily see that it is more intense living of our Faith in our daily lives. We are also better believe and why we believe it. Through a consideration of created things, reason can come to the conclusion that there is a Creator whom we call God. From historical evidence, reason accepts the fact that Christ lived. His words and deeds indicated that He was a Divine Person. Reason also has abundant evidence to prove that the Roman Catholic Church is the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church founded by Christ. But human reason is not enough; we must have a supernatural faith, which is a gift of God. Se “This is eternal life: that they may know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent’? (John xvii, 3). 101 About one-half of the seniors take Biology.

One such important instrument is the world-wide movement of the lay apostolate. Of this work Pope Pius XII said: “Our laity do not merely belong to the Church: they are the Church, and must take their stand in the front line of its life.” The call for such laymen has been repeated by every pope of the twentieth century. Seniors are already entering into this life of the lay aposto- late by being active in serving the parish as altar boys, or- ganists, choristers, and religious instructors to the children.

PHILIP DEERY Second Workman ................ EDMUND WOODCOME Indian Springs, a peaceful little Western town, becomes a center of attraction for tourists during Rodeo Days. The quiet of the Brison home is disturbed when civic-minded mother takes in guests and Dad ends up in the garage. Here Mom is informing him of what she has done, while Mrs. Rahl stands by. To add to the excitement workmen arrive to begin work on a rumpus room. The real action of the play begins when they strike what they think is a spring, and the Indian spring after which the town is named. Mrs. Rahl shows the Boy Scouts, the curious Indian statue. When it becomes broken Red Cloud fears the curse of the Indian gods. Mary Ann and Boots become much interested in the boy scouts who are their guests. The pampered Pamela tries to help the prostrate Miss Cole. + REE aio a St sti en ae Co-Directors: Dennis Delisle, Kathleen McManus, Carolyn Shattuck.

After the breaking of the Indian charm and the gushing of the spring, an Indian curse and spirit disrupt the peace of the Brison home, so it would seem. Bodies become lifeless, fall, and remain motionless and rigid even when put in a sitting position. Felicia and Penelope are aghast when they see Red Cloud prostrate on the floor. Mrs. Rahl gets no response from three of the victims of the evil spell—Felicia, Eleanor, and Red Cloud, who continue to stare blankly into space. The puzzled doctor advises as an antidote to the Indian drug, a plunge into cold water. The flooded basement proves to be just such a place. It works and soon, Felicia, Penelope, Mrs. Rahl, and Slim are wrapped up in blankets by Mrs. Brison. Instead of the ghost, Boots and Rodney capture Father and the doctor. Jo-Ann Cechin, Bernadette Joseph, Kathleen Moshure, Ann Murphy, Marguerite Piller, Eleanor Powell, Barbara Romano, and Patricia Valois were ushers at the all-school play, Happy Haunting Ground.

Mrs. Brison and her guests, Felicia, Penelope, and Pam, are interested in what Eleanor has to say about this year’s Rodeo Queen choice. The Indian ghost creeps up on Mrs. Rahl and puts the pouch to her nose. Boy Scout Dugan has already succumbed. Eleanor lies on the divan, another victim of the strange malady. Her distraught mother and father hover over her together with the rest of the household. The two workmen get involved in the general melee. Boots and Rodney have only made things worse when they attempt to catch the ghost. Dad is indignant and Mom threatens to report Rodney to Mrs. Rahl. fu ait Be i? When low Indian “whoops” are heard, Red Cloud tells the legend that when the Indian spring runs again, the Indian spirits will return to claim it. Act I closes with a dimming of the lights and in the dark- ness the Indian spirit appears, standing regally and still with folded arms and _ staring straight ahead. Toward the close of Act II, Eleanor screams that she can't stand those tom-toms and is leaving. Her father advances to seize her telling her he has had enough of this hysteria. Boots is resting her skinned body after her bull-fighting episode at the Rodeo. Pamela is beginning to think of someone else besides her- self. Everybody, including Pam- ela, is pleased when Mary Ann excitedly tells them that she won in the Rodeo Queen con- test. Red Cloud confesses that it was she who got White Feather to play the ghost. But he became serious when the spring appeared, claiming that this was Indian land and he was going to get it. Things get back to normal in the Brison home when the workmen find that it was a water main that they hit and not a spring. This repaired and the guests departed, peace again reigns. 117 ree ee eae Bg dltoiais eat In the Christmas program presented in the school auditorium on December 22, the Scriptural story of the first Christmas was portrayed.

All Bernardians were urged to attend and to dance to the strains of Russ Cole’s orchestra. The dance was well attended and much enjoyed by all. The seniors were grateful to the mothers of the PTA who helped to make the evening more enjoyable by the serving of refreshments and were pleased that the parents would be provided an opportunity to view the senior blue and silver decorations at the PTA scholarship fund dance on December 29, David Houle and Faith Marcy were co-chairmen of the Christmas dance. Seniors cooperated with them from beginning to end thus assuring the big success of the dance. The days before the event were busy ones in the carrying out of all the details involved.

The 1961 Football season opened on September 24 at the Bernardian Bowl in our game with Hudson Catholic. In the third and fourth cantos we made a spirited come- back scoring two TD’s to cop our initial win of the season, 12-6. Brian McDonald on three successive plays carried the ball to Hudson’s 38 yard line with Pellegrini, LeClair, and Hebert crashing to the 1 yard stripe, for Brian to score and deadlock the game 6-6. Although thwarted by a 2 yard loss in the final canto, McDonald raced to the end zone to score the tie-breaking TD and make it a SBHS win. On the morning of September 30 we played Lunenburg High at the Bowl. Near the end of the first stanza, Bernie LeClair concluded a 34 yard-drive and on a completed forward pass from Pellegrini to Gerow, we drew an 8-0 lead. In the fourth period, on the conversion, a Pellegrini to McDonald pass was complete in the end zone for a 16-0 victory. In the St. Peter’s game at the Bowl on October 8, we finally emerged victorious, 30-20, after trailing in the game’s early stages. Ray Hebert scored two touchdowns of thirty and forty-seven yards respectively. McDonald and LeClair brought about the other two TD’s. Gerow, LeClair, and McDonald accounted for the remaining six points via conversion. Captain Dennis Morin 41, Brian McDonald 23.

Barry Finneron scored three of the eight touchdowns; Bern ie LeClair scored touchdowns in the first and second periods; McDonald, Pellegrini, and Tiernan tallied one apiece. Hebert was credited with a two point conversion. In the Westford Academy game of October 21 we suffered our first loss of the season, 30-0. We encountered Fitchburg High at the Bowl on October 28. Despite a first half played with determination, the game ended with an FHS victory, 36-14. The first stanza was scoreless. As the second period got underway Pellegrini, Finneron, Hebert, and McDonald made successful gains through FHS’s lines to pace a 53-yard running spree that ended with McDonald’s lunge from the one yard line to pay dirt. But with a spectacular comeback, FHS skirted from the mid-field stripe past our defenses to their first touchdown. A further successful pass in the end zone broke the deadlock with an 8-6 lead. In the fourth quarter a last attempt by our team resulted in drives by McDonald, Pellegrini, and Hebert who ran 36 yards for the final gallop into the end zone. Our game with Clinton High was played at the Bowl on November 11 before 2500 spectators, Although we piled up 14 first downs as compared to seven for the Gaels and netted 244 yards rushing to their 212, we were defeated with a score of 21-14. Penalties played havoc with us even having one touchdown called back in the nip-and-tuck almost totally offensive encounter. Left halfback Bernice LeClair had both of our TD’s as well as the two extra points. 128 Gridiron trainer, John Perkins; business manager, James Carnivale. Student managers: Michael Tourville, Richard LeBlanc, Michael Small. Our last game of the season was with Notre Dame at the Bowl on November 20. Their 26-6 victory copped the 1961 interscholastic Catholic crown and the Father Curran trophy. The only Bernardian thrust to paydirt came in the third canto with Pellegrini, McDonald, Finneron, and Hebert lugging to the Crusaders’ one yard line where Pellegrini crashed through on a quarter- back sneak for six points. In spite of further attempts by the team, the Crusaders crashed through our line, scoring a final touchdown. Raymond Hebert 43 Henry Vezina 52 Robert Dolan 65 Richard Gerow 33 Brian McDonald 23 On November 27, SBHS football squad was honored at the annual Bernardian Athletic Club banquet at the Hotel Raymond. Captain Dennis Morin and right halfback Brian McDonald were named the most valuable SBHS lineman and back, respectively. Each received a_ trophy. Michael Pellegrini was also presented a trophy for being the outstanding player on our team in the Notre Dame game. Bernie LeClair was high scorer for the season with 52 points and Brian McDonald second with 36 points. 129 The basketball season opened on December 5 with St. Mary’s of Milford handing us a 66 to 51 defeat. Co-captain Joe LeBlanc and Barry Finneron each scored 14 points; Bernie LeClair, 10. On December 9, a tremendous second-half performance by Billy Walsh led our team to a 53-46 victory over St. Thomas’ of Dover, N. H., although when the halftime buzzer stopped action, they had a 24-23 lead. Walsh in the last half of play notched five floor goals and came down to the floor clutching 11 rebounds. In the game with Lunenburg High on December 12, they took a 15-9 lead at the end of the first period. Although we rallied some- what at the end of the second stanza, the game ended in their favor, 62-49. In the game with Hudson Catholic on December 15, Joe LeBlanc, with 24 points was the leading scorer. Although we were hampered by injuries that kept Co-captain Dave Houle and Billy Walsh from playing, we emerged with a 56-45 victory. Our injury and illness-riddled squad went down to a 56-39 score with Gardner High on December 20. The game was played without the services of Dave Houle, Joe LeBlanc, Billy Walsh, and only limited service from Bob Kendall. In the game with Assumption Prep of Worcester on January 3, we were seemingly on the verge of victory when the Monks staged a last half rally and came out on top with a 57-50 victory. Butch Flynn tallied 19 points while Joe LeBlanc had 11. SBHS led 12-9 at the end of the first period and 28-19 at the halftime intermission. However Assumption began to get the range in the third canto and was in front 39-38. In the Leo minster High game Dave Houle was high for us with 20 points. In this January 5 game LHS led at the close of each period defeating us with a score of 67-52. William Walsh, Brian McDonald, David Houle and Joseph LeBlanc, co-captains; Barry Finneron, Thomas Nowd. Second row: George Richards, Gene Therriault, Richard Flynn, Co-captains Joe LeBlanc and Dave Houle were the big guns in the game of January 12 with Westford Academy, with 26 and 12 points respectively; Butch Flynn, 11. We took a 2-0 lead in the first 30 seconds and were never headed, although with about three minutes to go in the opening period a floor goal by Westford knotted the count at 8-8. But with 1:56 re- maining in that same canto, Houle put us ahead to stay, 10-8. Final score was 61-36 in our favor. Although our quintet started strong jumping to a 12- 2 lead early in the game, they held only a 16-12 edge when the first period ended in the game with Littleton High on January 16. We continued to hold the bulge 25-23 and 38-31 at the conclusion of the next two stanzas. Joe LeBlanc and Barry Finneron, each with 16 points led SBHS to its victory, 45-39. In the game wi th FHS on January 19, our squad was unable to cope with their height and shooting game, although we did manage to have three hoopsters in dual figures—Barry Finneron with 17, Joe LeBlanc 12, and Dave Houle, 11. FHS led at the close of each of. the periods with a final score of 74-40. A successful foul shot by center Bob Kendall, after the final buzzer sounded, gave us a thrilling 54-53 victory over Holy Name of Worcester on January 26. Kendall was also the leading scorer for us having 17 points. In the game with Notre Dame on January 30, a floor goal by Barry Finneron gave us a brief 2-0 lead.
