We were faced with the difficult task of analyzing school life and compiling a book about it. We had many discussions concerning possible theme ideas, but none seemed to satisfy the majority. At last we realized that we could write best about what we knew best. Thus. we decided that our theme would be school life itself and our observations of it and our feelings about it. The editors wanted this presentation to capture in words and pictures the spirit, the people, and the experiences of our years in high school. In our yearbook, we avoided the extreme, but strove for variety by com- bining humor that would not be offensive la ticklish taskl, abstract designs that would not be radical, and animated layouts that would not be inordinate. We compiled each section with an eye to the future, for herein lies the value of a yearbook. If at a future reunion, we can look at a picture and say with a fleeting air of nostalgia, Remember him ? Was that twenty years ago'?,,, then our assignment will have been accomplished, for we will have captured some unforgettable moments of high school life. We tried to recreate the sports events, the activities, the dances, and the classes - all of which combine to make high school the life it is. In short, we attempted to compress into this book three years of toil, tears, and triumphs. This book represents the combined efforts of many people. It is the sincere hope of the editors that they have fulfilled their mission by producing a book that represents the Class of '61 and serves as a reminder of bygone days to be relived in words and pictures.

Harry and his staff for thc fine way that they conduct our school affairs, Our school years have lu-cn made much happier through the efforts of our administration. Our administrators have not only performed all the standard administrative duties. hut also have been willing to provide assistance whenever needed to students and faculty. The attitude of our administration contributes greatly to the friendly atmosphere at Wake- field High School. A word which represents learning, guid- ance. friendship. and example is tcachcr. Uur teachers. thc faculty of WHS, embody all these things. Although we are just now em- barking on experiences outside of high school, we know that we have been well-prepared in a wide variety of subjects that might range from Shop with Mr. Pepe to French Ill with Miss Cowing. Our teachers help us find our goals in life and how to attain those goals. I They give freely and willingly of their time and energy to sponsor clubs, train aspiring athletes, and otherwise encourage us to enjoy and benefit from our school life. .lust as a child is taught to walk through example, we are taught to learn through ex- ample, An enthusiastic, interested teacher will communicate his enthusiasm and interest to his students. We profit from just knowing the genuine interest and dedication of a Coach Tighe and a Miss Caswell.

At Wakefield High there is a variety of clubs and organizations to suit any interest, from mathematics to majorettes. The purpose of joining is three-fold: to balance the curri- culum, to provide an outlet for creativity, and to entertain not only members, but the entire school body. Unfortunately, many students become so involved and so occupied with clubs and or- ganizations that they sometimes allow little time for homework assignments in their busy schedule. We must realize that studying is our main purpose in these years, and social activities only supplement, not replace, this education. On the plus side, activities provide mo- ments to remember for all participants. There is a place for everyone in at least one club. Since the membership is voluntary, it is pos- sible to join a certain club with a friend, making it all the more pleasant. The values of membership lie in new ac- quaintances, vocational information, and cul- tural enrichment - all of which improve and broaden our personalities. iActivities also can serve as stepping stones to future occupations in business, journalism, mathematics, or science. Students have op- portunities to act, exhibit science fair projects, lecture on mathematics, write articles, produce plays, and speak foreign languages. Activities offer a chance for practical application of les- sons learned in class. Without them our school life would lack a special spark. QL UQTIV sv-sis? I -1 ,Q-5. T ' s ' '1.'ffw.'

Consisting of a comely group of high stepping marchers. the majorettes braxe the coldest weather to perform. Attired in flaming red lndian costumes. they enter- tain the football crowds at half time. At the pep rallies. the occupants of the front row seats are petrified at the possi- bility of a whirling baton slipping from the nimble fingers of a performer and crack- ing them on the skull. However. their fears would be expelled if they could sec the many hours of tedious baton practice each girl undergoes. We can point with pride at our group of hard working and talented girls - the Wakefield High Majorettes. . 130, Q VP rj fm 'Xt . f ff . ef G X ll mktfyf' X5 CQ 19 if 1, 1 I 6. t, 9 -fill CHEERLEADERS C.

Guided by Miss Upham. the cheerleaders sponsor the Pigskin Prancef' in addition to their regular duties. Appearing at football games. basketball games. and pep rallies. the cheerleaders root for W.H.S. With the encouragement of the cheerleaders. the basketball team compiled their best record in twelve years. How can a group of such small, soft- spoken young ladies scream. 'thollerf' and chant like tif you will excuse the expres- sionl a bevy of screech owls? The answer is obvious. Every cheerleader is overflow- ing with school spirit. Without such spirit a high school could not exist. Only after hours of strenuous practice do the cheerleaders make their first appear- ance. Even after the football season is over, the cheerleaders continue to work. We are grateful for the time they put in and the wonderful work they do.

Every one will have his own special memory, but we feel that cer- tain events best represent the highlights of our year 1960-61. Our class can remember with pride our participation in work projects for the Sally Sayce Memorial Drive to raise money for scholarships in memory of our classmate. Who can forget the hilarious portrayal of unicewmurderers by members of the senior class in Arsenic and Old Lace? The months of hard work by committees. cast members. and their director, Mrs. Kincaid, were well- rewarded by applause. The breath-taking thrill of cheering the home team to victory may be felt again through pictures of the Lexington-Wakefield football game. This year the music department again pre- sented a memorable concert at Christmas- time. The largest band ever representing Wakefield High presented a program of Fine music. At the concert we recognized the abil- ities of our band in a symphonic setting as well as on a football field. This year the music department was enlarged with the addition of a choral director. Mr. McKinley,s hard work was exhibited in the fine production of the six singing groups. Through this growth we realize Mr. Boisen's efforts of the past few years. Under the direction of Mr. Sheehan, the science teachers supervised the annual Science Fair. Our future engineers and biochemists expended many after school hours researching and creating. The rest of us struggled to con- struct charts, machines, c'whatchamacallits , and uthingamajiggersi' in an effort to pass our science courses. We can never forget the won- derful world of science and its ordered confu- sion! Here are the highlights of 1960-61. v 1 . it . S I W -H ,.

Almost everyone has participated at one time or another in some form of organ- ized athletics ranging from girl's badminton to Varsity football. Those of us who didnlt actively participate certainly enjoyed cheer- ing our classmates onward in their athletic endeavors. Throughout our years we have met success and defeat gracefully. Our teams have traveled far and wide and have always tried their best to uphold the name of Wake- field High. Wakefield High School is fortunate to have a fine staff of athletic instructors. These ded- icated coaches have spent much time and worry in attempting to mold our teams into top shape. Not only have they taught us much about the rudiments of athletics, but they have set fine examples of sportsmanship and deter- mination for us to follow in our lives. We will certainly never forget them and their efforts in our behalf. Our high school athletic history has been high-lighted by several outstanding accom- plishments. Our 1960 defeat of Winchester in football was the high point of the season, as was our 1959 defeat of the same school in basketball fa real featl. Other successes in- clude a championship hockey team, a highly successful indoor track squad, and the best basketball record of Wakefield High in the past eleven years. Our athletic adventures have been many and varied. Besides our interscholastic Var- sity sports, Wakefield High has a growing in- tramural athletic program. Designed for sports enthusiasts who don't find time to de- vote full time to sports, this program gives every student the opportunity for some whole- some exercise and competition. Through our years many of us have taken an active part in this worthwhile program. Through all our successes and defeats we can proudly say that we have always tried our best to leave a distinctive athletic record at Wakefield High School. VARSITY FOOTBALL First Row: R. Birch, F.

One side is the formal academic nature of schoolg the other is the informal, leisurely side. As students, we have come to know both sides well. School life is work! We have labored, toting books, cramming for tests, hustling to class, and composing reams of written papers. We have spent long hours preparing Science Fair projects. senior themes, and other such tedious tasks. Our formal education in high school has been a long. hard road with many pitfalls, but it has taught us many priceless concepts. Without the prevailing atmosphere of infor- mality, school would not he the wonderful place that it is. All work and no play does not make for a well-rounded life. Along with our serious scholastic efforts we have had many good times at Wakefield High School. Our school dances, talent shows, and other social gatherings have afforded us many cher- ished moments. We will never forget the classroom laughter, the corridor chatter. or the friendly buzz of the lunchroom. Other familiarities are the class clowns, the friend- ly teachers, each with his own particular traits and habits, and the gloomy detention hall, which many of us have visited through the years. Yes, the informal school life is equally as important as the formal. Both sides of school life are necessary. One depends on the other to function effectively, and together they make school a truly rewarding experience. i- ll Cgndid one?

Together, these individuals make up a close-knit student body. Some of us are vigorously active, par- ticipating in a wide variety of activities, some are relatively inactive - but each. in his own way, contributes to the success of the whole. Through our school years we have acquired many new friends and acquaintances. Some will be life-long, others will gradually fade into non-existence, but all have contributed to the molding of our characters. All of our en- counters with other people have shed new light on our everyday lives, our thoughts, and our ideals. In the future as we look back in a reminis- cent vein upon our days at Wakefield High School our predominant memories will be of our classmates. Memories of our studies and the physical aspects of the school will even- tually fade from our minds, but the memo- ries of our friends will remain. High school life does not afford a class much opportunity to do things as a unit but to- gether we have made several accomplishments. Our Sophomore Hop, Junior and Senior Proms, and Senior Play were great successes. Our classmates have been honored again and again both scholastically and athletically. As a class we have been successful in all that we have attempted. Joseph Sadowski Sally Sayce They were our friends and we grieve for them. Each one contributed the gift of him- self whenever he could. Under all circum- stances, they proved to be loyal and sincere. Because they are no longer here, there is a vacuum in our lives.

How well its citizens meet their responsibility determines the quality of education in the linited States. We are indeed fortunate to have in Wake- field people who recognize and agree to meet this responsibility. As students, we are con- tinually encouraged and helped by the inter- est of the community. Organizations such as the Daughters of the American Revolution. the fiotary Club. and the League of Women Voters go out of their way to contact young people and encourage interest in community, state, and national af- fairs. W'e who have enjoyed the hospitality of such groups are grateful for their thought- fulness in our behalf. The rising cost of higher education creates a terrible drain on the average tax payer. For this reason many students need to rely on outside assistance to help finance their fur- ther edueation. This assistance often comes from groups like the Elks Club, the Boosters Club and the Wakefield Chamber of Com- merce - all of whom have campaigned un- selfishly to raise funds for scholarships. With- out the efforts of these civic groups, many deserving students would be unable to con- tinue their education. In this yearbook we again have tangible evidence of community spirit behind us. We are gratified by the response of our patrons -- businessmen, professional men, and private citizens - to our request for advertisements. We appreciate the good wishes expressed in the following pages, and consider them a re- flection of community good will and sincere interest in the students of Wakefield High.

At that time everything about school was new, exciting, and a little awesome. After the faculty had straightened us out on our schedules and the new and confusing block system, and after the helpful upperclassmen had directed us to the student elevators and the third floor often enough, we became accustomed to our new life and began our high-school career. Out with the old and in with the new was the fitting theme for those early weeks. Not only was the old town hall making its last stand in Wakefield Square, but the faculty was changing also. Mr. Fisher, the respected former head of the history depart- ment and assistant superintendent, announced his retirement. At that time we welcomed four new faculty members. The science department gained Miss Doll: Mr. Mulcahy was added to the language staff 5 Mrs. Kincaid became our new speech instructorg and Miss Hogan joined the mathematics department. In another change, Mr. Broderick step- ped up to the position of submaster, replacing Mr. Colucci, who became junior-high prin- cipalg and Mr. Sheehan assumed the position of head of the science department. The new foreign-exchange student, Giuseppe Cavalca, was from Milan, Italy. Many of us got to know and like friendly Joe . - The Sophomore Hop, our first class activity, took place early in November. Time out for Commercials was the humorous theme chosen by the hop committee. Because of the eflicient planning, everyone enthusiastically attended this dance. Other dances throughout the year, such as the Hobo Party, the canteens, and the Winter Carnival, were all well supported by our class. The W. H. S. sports teams came out on the right end of many exciting games that year. Football under head Coach Tighe topped the list with W. H. S. turning in another championship edort in a memorable season which saw sophomores play an important part in many victories. Dick DeFeo, along with Paul Myette and Dick Pietrafitta, saw varsity actiong meanwhile the J. V. squad contained many sophomore starters. Unfor- gettable were the 30-8 Reading victory, the come-from-behind draw with Melrose 14-14, and the final league game when Wakefield polmded Lexington 46-12, and Melrose beat Winchester to make possible our third straight Middlesex League crown. Also turning in a fine season, Coach Sheehan's cross-oolmtry squad boasted many sophomore members who stood out in convincing victories over Haverhill, Reading, Stone- ham, and Revere. With the newly formed Middlesex Hockey League in operation, Wakeneld showed up well, compiling a won-lost record of 10-3-1, good for a second-place nnish. Coach Kirk's sophomore group assisting in the varsity success included Bart Barry, Bob Hubbard, and Matty O'Keefe. The W. H. S. basketball team compensated for a. rather ordinary season with impressive wins over Reading and Melrose twice each. Coach Charbonneau received a rousing effort from the sophomores on the team - Russ Ferris and Dick DeFeo. The 1959 track team was one of the strongest in the state of Massachusetts. Soph- omores were in part responsible for this success, with Ed Almeida, Leo Beane, Ralph Burns, Ed Holleran, Paul McNulty, Kevin McQu1llen, and Lennie Welsh leading the way. The spring sports scene was also spiced by an occasional win by the baseball team. What the team lacked in experience, however, it made up for in hustle and spirit. Coach Raoca's best prospects included Dennis Drinkwater, Dick DeFeo, Mark Henriksen, J a.ck Murray, and Barry Thornton. For the first year, W. H. S. dressed a tennis team, with a new coach, Mr. Boyle, and sophomore members Gary Powell and Richard Reass. Everyone probably remembers well Physical Fitness Week, in October, whether he wrote a prize-winning theme on the subject, or did the push-ups and pull-ups. By November, four new organizations had been formed: the Debating Team under Mrs. Kincaid, the Italian Club under Mr. Pesce, the Thespians, a new dramatic club under Mrs. Kincaid, and a Math Club under Miss Height. December was marked by the Inter Nos father-daughter banquet monsored by Miss Upham and the Christmas concert under the direction of Mr. Boisen. The talent show was another highlight of the winter, as the sophomores showed that theirs was not the least gifted of the three classes. The annual spelling bee, with sophomores Betsy O'Donnell, Kathy Joyce, Mark Henriksen, and Bob Manzi, was also enjoyable. At that time the entire school was saddened by the sudden death of our fellow class- mate, Joseph Sadowski, whose loss we still deeply feel. With the an'ival of spring came the eagerly anticipated first science fair with a large number of fascinating projects. The sophomore class showed scientific aptitude as many honorable-mention awards were taken: and prizes were won by Nancy Hurd, Maureen McKeon, Walden Dillaway, and Martin Graham. At the same time came the spring drama production, A Connecticut Yankee in King A.rthur's Court. Key roles were taken by members of our class: Larry Brehaut, Edward Cassidy, Walden Dillaway, Mary Phipps, and Jo-Arme Powers. Another spring feature was Twirp week, with the black list and Saturday night Twirp Twirl. April brought with it the Teachers' Club play, which was delightfully ridiculous and much enjoyed by the student body. Recognition was brought to Wakefield at this time when representatives of the school placed high in the speech tourney at Clark University and took the debate-team cham- pionship in a trip to Stonehill College. Sophomore members of this group included Janet Pietraiitta, Sally Sayce, Diane Shurtlei, Donald Cook, and Jon Wallenius. Late in April the final musical program under Mr. Boisen's sponsorship was en- joyed. All the different singing groups, plus the band, performed wellg and the popular dance band, which had pleased audiences throughout the year, also added to the program. Sophomore members of this group were David Burnett, Harold Shea, and Richard Todd. As the school year neared its end, class elections came up and interest ran high. The sophomore class oficers who had served faithfully throughout the year - president, Arthur Abdinoorg vice president, Joan Jaremag secretary, Emily Adamsg and treasurer, Sue Coflan - were now replaced by the newly elected quartet of: president, Arthur Abdinoorg vice president, Emily Adamsg secretary, Maureen McKeong and treasurer, Betsy 0'Donnell. With a year of high-school work accomplished, we looked forward to our junior year, hoping it would be even bigger and better than the successful one that we had just completed. JUNIOR YEAR As we entered our junior year, we noticed several administration changes. Mr. Brown was elected the guidance advisor for the sophomore class, and Miss Clifford was appointed a guidance counselor. Our faculty increased by four with the addition of M.r. McCarthy to the mathematics department, Mr. Mixie to the social studies department, Miss Padula to the language department, and Mrs. Pierce to the home economics department. Three new clubs were organized this year. Mr. Connors and Mr. Boyle sponsored the Social Science Club: Miss Doll and Mr. Feudo, the Science Clubg and Mrs. Kincaid, the Debate Club. Our school was enriched by the arrival of Sujatha Sandosham, our exchange student from Singapore. Su's lively wit and jovial personality added much not only to our scholastic activities but also to our extracurricular activities. Many juniors were active in sports competition. Dick DeFeo and Dick Pietraiitta were lauded for their outstanding performances on the football field. On the Junior Varsity Squad, Ed Almeida, Paul McNulty, Herb Cun'ier, Arthur Swanson, and Paul Myette ably represented our class. Under Larry Brehaut's management, the cross country team fared well. Leo Beane, Ed Holleran, Paul Costantino, and Ralph Burns vigorously participated in many events. The social highlight of the year was the Junior Prom. We called it Seventh Heaven. Manual's Black and Whites provided the music. Chris Coviello and Peggy MacLennan were chosen king and queen. The chaperones were the parents of the class oilicersz President, Arthur Abdinoorg Vice-President, Emily Adams: Secretary, Maureen McKeong and Treasurer, Betsy O'Donnell. Under Mr. Boisen's competent direction, the music department presented the annual Christmas Concert. The groups which participated were the Chorale, Sophomore Girls' Chorus, Boys' Glee Club, the Wakefield High School Band, and the Dance Band. For the first time, in order to present scholarships to deserving students, the Cham- ber of Commerce presented a musical comedy this year, Make It For Two. The citizen- ry of the town was asked to support the scholarship fund by purchasing tickets to the show. Our junior class assisted by selling tickets from house to house. Many junior girls volunteered to sell flowers and to usher. The production proved to be most success- ful and all our efforts were rewarded. In March, Wakefield High School presented its second Science Fair. The many months of preparation reaped benefits for many jmiiors. Walter Hatch won first prize in biologyg Nancy Hurd, first prize in chemistryg and Sherry Tigar, third prize in chem- istry. Two speech festivals were held under the auspices of Mrs. Kincaid and the students of the speech classes. Among the outstanding jimior participants of the speech festival at the University of Massachusetts were David Hogg, Diane Shurtleif, Neal Hinton, and Maureen McKeon. Also in March, our annual Tag Day was held for the benefit of the American Field Service Foreign Exchange Student Program. The winning junior class had 90.61, of its membership purchase tags. In April our school underwent an evaluation program. To maintain standing in the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, schools must be evaluated every ten years. Earlier in the year, our faculty, under the leadership of Mr. Connors, chairman of the Steering Committee. had been evaluating the objectives of the school, the subject matter of the courses, and the equipment of the building. In May, Bob Frederick represented us in the Annual Spoken Spanish Contest at Tufts University, sponsored by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portu- guese. Bob was questioned on the topic Puerto Rico, Past and Present. Also in May, seventeen of our classmates were inducted into the National Honor Society in a formal ceremony in the auditorium. They were David Burnett, Susan Coflan, Yvonne DesMarteau, Walden Dillaway, Carol Dingle, Brenda Flight, Barbara King, Gail Munro, Robert Neff, David Proctor, Irene Puddister, Donna Rowe, Sherry Tiga.r, and Susan Wallace. The Lookout acquired two new co-editors: Nancy Needham and Chris Coviello. Several students left school early this year: Su Sandosham left to tour our country before returning home to Singapore: Irene Puddister left to spend the summer in Ger- many, and Martin Graham and Walden Dillaway left for Boys' State. The last days of our jimior year were saddened by the passing of Sally Dee Sayce in an automobile accident. We shall always remember Sally for the truly fine person she was. As the school year entered its last week, we assembled in the auditorium for om' last assembly as juniors. The sports awards were presented to those students who had actively participated in athletic events. Mr. Barry announced that two juniors had received awards for scholastic achievement. Walden Dillaway was the recipient of the Harvard Book presented by the Harvard Club of Boston. Robert Neff was the recipient of the Mathematics Association of America award for outstanding ability in mathematics. Dining om- junior year, the Class of 1961 demonstrated that it was one of the best classes that had ever entered Wakefield High, however, as we 1'ushed out the front door, delirious with the prospect of summer vacation, we were not thinking about the hectic senior year to come. SENIOR YEAR On Wednesday, September 7, 1960, with summer reminiscences and high hopes for the year ahead, we retinned to Wakefield High School to begin our careers as seniors. Because of the ever increasing enrollment, our High School now used both the Atwell and Memorial buildings. One of the most strenuous activities was running from one class on the third floor of the Atwell building to gym in the Memorial building, trying also to take time to stop at our lockers. Let us now take one last look at our senior year before we move on to the important future. Many administration changes were necessitated by the change from the 6-3-3 plan to the 6-2-4 plan. We immediately noticed that Mr. Broderick was not reading the usual homeroom assignments. He had been shifted to the Atwell building over the summer to take charge of taming the younger Warriors. Mr. Sardella took over his former position. Soon it became apparent that many new faces had appeared on the faculty. They included: Messieurs Benoit, Blanchard, Celona, Charbonneau, DiGlam- marino, Favorat, Gartner, Gray, McKinley, Miksen, Pawlowskl, Provost, Racca, Rosvall, Ruggiero, Ryan, and Woodman. Les Madames Bean, DeCecca., MacLeod, Malcolm, Son- nenschein, Stewart, and Widness. Lx Mademoiselles Bucci, Covington, Heron, San Clemente, and Tosi. Fall sports played an important part in the opening months of the year. The cross country team strove hard under the leadership of Coach Sheehan to bolster the school's hopesforvictory. LeoBeaneandPaulCostantlnowe:reelectedeo-captalnspriortothe opening meet against Winchester. Meanwhile, Coach Tighe was making an all-out effort to produce a championship football team. On September 22, it was announced that Richard Pietradtta and Dick DeFeo had been elected co-captains by their fellow team mates. The team showed unity and spirit in the rain-marred scrimmage at Salem prior to the opening game with Reading. After being stopped in our nrst two attempts, we got on our feet and rolled up a. string of victories. Credit must be given to the cheerleaders, led by Carol Dingleg the Majorettes, led by Susan Wallace: the Pep Club, led by Sheila Moreirap and the band under the direction of Mr. Boisen. Combined, these organizations comprised the heart and soul of the football cheering section. The Activities Council, sponsored by Mr. Crompton and headed by Dennis Drinkwater, presented pep rallies before the Reading and the Turkey Day clashes. The completion of the football season brought the annual football awards assembly. Dick DeFeo was honored by the Minahan Trophy for the most valuable player in the Winchester game - based on his outstanding passing feats - the Thom McAn Trophy, and a quarterback position on the Boston Globe all-scholastic team. Herb Currier and Lenny Welsh received their awards at the Melrose-Wakefield Hospital where they re- cuperated from a series of game injuries. Other senior standouts on the team were Ed Almeida, Paul McNulty, Paul Myette, Bill Chetwynd, Art Swanson, and Matty O'Keefe. Public announcement was made later in the season that DeFeo had been elected to The Sporting News national scholastic team. We were pleased to be host during the past year to Kathi Wurmll from St. Gallen, Switzerland. Her pleasant personality and sense of humor added much to our senior year. Returning from a summer in Germany as a participant in the American Field Service Program was Irene Puddister. In October, the Student Council established the Sally Sayce Memorial Scholarship Fund, in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Wakefield. Members of our class volun- teered their time to earn money doing odd jobs for householders in Wakefield and vicinity. Over S400 was earned, which when combined with generous contributions from various civic organizations, established a sizeable fund to be distributed. The Music Department, under the direction of Mr. Boisen and Mr. McKinley, presented its annual Christmas Festival of Music. Members of the Chorale, the Boy's Glee Club, and the Girl's Glee Club entertained many local groups over the holidays. The National Honor Society elected eight more members of our class to its member- ship. 'I'hose honored were Paula Caracoglia, Elimbeth Cook, John Innocenti, Rosemary Mahoney, Fred Mason, Charles Schultz, Paul Vingerhoet, and Patricia Watters. In December we presented to the town our major dramatic production, Arsenic and Old Lace . Lead roles were taken by Nancy Hurd, Priscilla DiDonato, John Healy, and Walden Dillaway. The production was called one of the best presented by a senior class in the past ilfteen years. Elections took an important part in our senior yea.r in Wakefield High. Besides being bothered by campaigning underclassmen, many of us spent hours preparing an analysis of the Presidential election. On January 1, we were deeply saddened by the death of a popular member of our class, Gerald McDonough. He will be long remembered in the hearts of his classmates. Maureen McKeon was elected to represent our class at the United Nations in October. The trip is sponsored annually by the Social Studies Department, imder the direction of Mr. Connors, and the League of Women Voters. Our basketball team, led by Captain Russ Ferris, continued the tradition of fair play established by previous squads. Dick Kelly, Mark Henriksen, Dick DeMerle, Barry Thornton, and Ed Walsh contributed to our victories. We had hoped to upset league- leading Reading, but the pace-making Rockets orbited us 63-51. Their second stage failed when Stoneham's five week plan to stop Reading accomplished what we attempted. Ferris and Kelly led our team's efforts averaging 17 points per game. We ended upgthe season by upsetting Belmont, thus making it the best team in 11 years. Wakefield re-introduced a favorite winter sport this year - indoor track. Under the direction of Coach Gray, the trackmen set a remarkable showing in their first appearance by beating St. Ma.ry's 56-22. Later in the season, Paul Vingerhoet placed nfth in the state meet. The highlight of the season was the Reading meet in which we squeaked over by a 113 point. Meanwhile the Kirkmen were rolling their usual string of victories. Although we were momentarily slowed by Reading and Melrose, we captured the Middlesex League crown. Some senior standouts were Bob Hubbard, Ed Knowlton, Dick DeFeo, and Bart Barry. Over 300 Wakeneld fans battled the worst blizzard of the winter to cheer on the team against Belmont. The event, sponsored by the Boosters' Club and Activities Council, showed the unity and spirit of the Wakeneld fans. The Oracle was carefully prepared under editors Mark Henriksen and Yvonne Des- Marteaug Jack Murray and Rosemary Mahoney handled its financial resources. This year the book was produced under the skillful guidance of Mr. Boyle. Two more honors came to members of our class when Jack Murray was chosen to represent Wakeneld High School at Student Government Day at the State House and when Maureen McKeon was chosen this yea.r's winner of the DAR award. It is awarded to a senior girl selected by vote of her classmates and faculty on the basis of dependa- bility, service, leadership, and patriotism. Six seniors were selected by Mr. Barry to represent Wakefield High School at the local Rotary Club throughout the school year. Chosen this year were Mark Henriksen, David Burnett, Robert Neff, David Proctor, Ian MacRobbie, and Peter Lynch. On January 28 we danced to music presented by the Wakefield High School Dance Band. This was followed by the annual Inter Nos Club's Valentine Dance. Our class was well represented among the spring sports. Coach Racca led the baseball team to victoryg the track and golf teams were sponsored by Coaches Tighe and Kodis respectively. The tennis team was well coached by Mr. Woodman. The Spring also brought many favorable memories: another talent show, more dance canteens, an excellent production of Harvey by the Thespians, a last-minute exchange of graduation pictures, completion of college applications, interviews for summer jobs, and a final stab at College Boards. Late in May we attended the last dance at Wakefield High School - the memorable Senior Prom. This was quickly followed by the Senior Breakfast, Class Day, and the final, long-awaited event - Graduation. As we think back on our years at Wakeneld High School, let us stop a minute to express our appreciation, as a whole, to the faculty for their inspiring instruction and imceasing efforts in our behalf. As we look towards the future, let us remember that WE SHALL BE WHAT WE MAKE OURSELVES3' CLASS HISTORY COMIMITTEE David J. M. Proctor Sherry M. Tigar Walden Dillaway Faculty Sponsor: Miss Janet Height Class Prophecy The date is June 1, 1971: the time is X minus two hours at Cape Canaveral, and the air is tense with last-minute preparations for the launching of America's first manned space wheel. Mechanics Arthur Swanson, Roy Davey, Thomas Walsh, and Bruce Farrell are making final adjustments on the antigravity device developed by Itlchard Reass, Craig Finney, and John King. Larry Brehaut and Walden Dillaway, chief electrical engineers for the project, are synchronizing the telescopic television mechanism. The fueling crew, composed of John Duval, John Curran, and Robert Delano are filling the tanks with hydro-silicon, a new organic fuel developed in the Judson Farnsworth Laboratories under the direction of Fred Mason, assisted by Edward Knowlton, Charles Shultz, and Steven Wingate. The doctor accompanying the flight, David Burnett, is consulting with his stan of secretaries, headed by Tudy Adams, and including Andra Slmonsen, Donna Rowe, and Mary Galvin concerning medical records of the crew members. The designers of the space wheel, David Proctor and Norman Brown, are nervously standing by, hoping the launch- ing will be a success. At X minus one hour, the medical technologist, Nancy Hurd, and her assistants Sandra Hatfield, Diane Eager, and Maureen Witt make a dnal check of the Space wheel's laboratory, Stan Buttrick orders the members of his crew to take their positions in the craft preparatory to launching: the ground crew take their positions in the block house. The radar network, under the supervision of George Thompson, and the data processing machine, nm by Clarace Fall, Karen Doucet, Patricia Cronin, Joan Nelson, and Linda Johnson, are prepared for takeoni On board the wheel, the man in charge, Martin Graham, outlines the schedule be- fore, during, and after takeoff. The crew, including James Mulloy, David La Fave, War- ren Dugmore, Thomas Ward, and Harry Lattanzi, review technical procedure. Martin's private secretary, Gail Shirreff, aided by Paula Caracoglla, Karen Larson, and Susan Toth, take notes for the permanent file. Zero hour is approaching fast. Bob Knowlton, chief ground engineer, alerts the staff to stand by. As the whole country tunes in on Eileen Hennessy, the commentator, broadcasting directly from the launching site, to hear whether the launching is successful, the voice of Ian Mac Robbie is heard giving final instructions to his head technicians, David Howard and Leonard Welsh: and then there is silence as Chris Coviello begins the nnal countdown. . . .3 . . 2 . . .1 . . .0. The space wheel is launched successfully! We reach the predestined orbit in 41 minutes, having tried out our new telescopic television while going across the Atlantic Ocean. Passing over London, we observe that famous crime detection organization, Scotland Yard. Because of the ceaseless efforts of Chief Inspector, Neal Burton, the crime rate has risen considerably. Local bobbies, Joe Bellucci, and Jim Bruno, under the expert direction of Constable Bob Mc Kay, preserve the decorum. Landing in a rolling meadow, we meet Joni Davidson who has married Lord Snod- grass. Because Diane Shurtleff, om' reporter, wants to survey the area, we walk down the lane to Dave Grimn's Manor. We see Peggy Mc Lennan and Judi Harris selling Scotch plaids to tourists. In the industrial area we notice the new Ford Plant, skillfully directed by Jack Conley, who is aided by his private secretaries, Judy Mitchell and Jeannette Salonen. After a short jaunt to Scotland, we decide to take a guided tom' through Glasgow. Jean Anderson, who does tours in various countries during the summer, delivers a com- prehensive talk. On our conducted tour through Galloway Glass Works Limited, we are surprised to see Carol Moretti, chief glass blower. She says there seems to be an epidemic of Amer- icans in Europe. Just a half hour ago she had seen Ardeen Stlckney being carried out on a stretcher by interns, Jack Murray and William Grady. He will be taken to Magregor's Sanitorium where Dr. Yvonne Desmarteau will operate. Our photographer, Mark Hen- riksen, tells us that Pat Walsh and Sandy Cusato are head nurses there now and are teaching Sylvia Sampson and Pat Comeau who are post-grads. The Lord High Mayor of Ireland has consulted Ed Holleran, his minister of Foreign Affairs, conceming the Irish linen situation. Herb Currier, owner of the only large mill, can't keep up with the demand. One reason is that Pat Tarr and her models, Yvonne Schreyer, Gail Millar, and Charlene Ulwick are using a tremendous quantity in their new fall collection for the House of Usher. During our jaunt over to France we notice Priscilla Perry touching up the White Cliiis of Dover. Our ferry is helped into the Le Havre dock by Paul Howard at the wheel of one of Robert Tillson's tugs. On our way by the airport in David Gaw's taxi, we catch a glimpse of Carolyn Jack, Bev Taylor, and Pat Ingham, stewardesses on the new rocket trans-At- lantic night. Of course, we couldn't miss Paris, and once in Paris we couldn't miss the Eifel Tower, which looks tres belle after Barry Thornton has just finished removing all the rust. Down the street we see Elaine Robinson making an original reproduction of Eiffel Tower. Linda Newbegin, we're told by Betty Cook and Nancy Needham - libra- rians at the Louvre - has just been married at Notre Dame Cathedral. Must have been quite a wedding! The reception will be held at the Palais de Versailles, where Donna Moore has just Hnished redecorating. Later, on our trip down the Rhine, we see Ronald Caracoglia reconstructing an old castle. In Koln we meet Prof. Bill Galpin, who is taking his students on a cultural tour. After a short plane ride with Bob Hubbard as pilot, we land at the Templehof Airport. At the Brandenburg Gate we meet Irene Puddister, who is fulfilling her dream of visiting Berlin with her German family. We now change direction and head for darkest Africa. First, we fly over the pros- perous country of the Congo, and, as we look down, we see Janice Dillon and Kathi Wurm- li on a sightseeing trip to the ultra modern University of the Congo built by the con- struction firm of Lee Janvrin and Kenneth Lyle. Taking a closer look, we see Barbara King, Marcia Rosen, and Brenda Flight, the foremost teachers of the time on their Way to classes. Leaving civilization behind, we pass on over the unexplored jungles of deepest Africa. Wait, what's that down below? It's the African safari of Steven Geranlan, botanist, and Bob McCauley, led by the great white hunter, Ralph Burns. Looking back, we see the missionary settlement of Stevia Morton and Judy Rice. Reaching the Nile River, we see the female engineering team of Gracie Doucette, Candy Hibbard, and Nancy Kiley supervising the construction of the gigantic Victorian Dam. Changing course, we ily north along the Nile into Egypt, the land of the pyramids. There, we see the Great Pyramid Restaurant owned and managed by Peg Erker. Wait- resses Maureen McKeon, Diane Marshall, and Sally Russo are just reporting for work. This restaurant is world-renowned for its fine food prepared by the master chefs, Char- lotte Lynch and Carol Golini. Passing over the Suez Canal into Asia, we see Dave Berry, great Olympic swimmer, on his record swim around the world. World tension having been curbed, we have free passage over Moscow, where We see the great American team of Anthony Lapery, Phillip Leavitt, and Kevin McQuillen en- gaging in the Russian game of Hammer and Sickle - winner take all. If we look closely, we can see the famous diplomatic team of Betsy 0'Donnel1, Merry Cronk, and Eileen Irwin arguing for legislation to rip down the iron curtain. s 'We then pass over the Himalayas and see the mountain-climbing team of Art Abdi- noor, Cliff Alcorn, Dave Bisacre, John 0'Brien, and Richard Kelley racing up Mount Everest after an abominable snowman. Leaving Tibet behind and flying over China to Hong Kong, we see the famous China Dragon Expresso Shop, owned and operated by John Innocenti. If we listen closely, We may hear the wild modern jazz of Pete Lynch. Because it's almost suppertime, we board our taxi rocket to go back to the space wheel. Once over the Pacific, it is only a matter of minutes before the giant space wheel slows down for a brief view of Hawaii. All eyes are turned to the huge screen of the telescopic TV. There's the pictureg it's coming in clear now. It seems that the trans- oceanic steamship the U.S. Hawaii has just docked and the passengers are getting od. There's Rosemary Gerrior, the famous fashion designer from Paris, and with her, her assistants Ann Dulong and Priscilla DlDonato. The world-renowned actor David Hogg and his singing star Betsey Winner are also coming off. And now we see Dlck DeFeo and Janet Martin, stars of the U.S. Olympic skiing team, with Paul Constantino, the famous track champion. And who are those three lovely hula girls welcoming the visitors? Why, they're Emilia Harvey, Judy Hemeon, and Jessica Fitzgerald who has reached a height of Hve feet nine inches. Someone is running frantically up the dock: and, upon closer inspec- tion, we see that it's James McClory running up to take pictures of the world-renowned inventor Denton Fernald, who is still trying to discover how Kaiser quilts its aluminum foil. Scanning the island with our camera, we spot Carol Dingle teaching the guests how to surf. Helen Dale is star pupil with life guard John McAuliffe. In the heart of Honolulu we see Glee Beach's exclusive beauty salon, which caters only to very important people. Her assistants are Brenda Croce, Donna Mueller, and Marcia Toussaint. Barb Hogan's souvenier shop is doing a roaring business. The night clubs aren't too busy right now, but later on in the evening Carol Menges' Beachcomber will be filled to capacity, the main attractions being Pamela Mead, commedienneg Sheila Moreira, jazz dancer, and Mary PhlPPS, singer. A little way out of the city we see Beverly Pamp's Pineapple Plantation with Mary Downing, her foreman in charge of all the pineapple pickers. Danny Ferrin just devel- opedanewshadeofpinkpainttouseonHawai1anVillage,whlchhadbeenchangedto purple a few years back. We can see Gary Powell, with Judy Avery, his nurse, administering pills to his faithful native followers. Continuing our crossing of the Pacific, we arrive in Brazil and alight from Oul' rocket piloted by Dennis Drinkwater. We wave good-bye to the stewardesses Dianne Davis and Dottie Frost, as we are greeted by Sherry Tlgar, a foreign service delegate to Brazil, and Robert Scanlon, owner of a large coffee plantation. Also there are Jean Lan- dry, Theresa Teixeira, and Annette Fine, secretaries at the U.S. Embassy in Argentina. That night Mike Ciampa, rich tobacco farmer, treats us to dinner at Sue Greene's restau- rant and night club, where Aldo Bartlett and Robert Butler are the guest stars. The next day we visit an armed forces base, commanded by General Robert Duncan. His as- sistants, William Loconzola and Chuck Alden, give us a guided tour. We meet privates Thomas Scanlon and Bart Barry at the omce of Walter Hatch, the doctor of the base. Next we visit the base school where we see Susan Hurton, Carol Sherman, and Judy Stevens, elementary school teachers. We leave Brazil and travel to Chile. In Chile we stay at the prosperous ranch of Steve Carleton, who takes us to visit Robert Ciacera and Richard Vining, farmers on the Chilean plateaus. Next we visit Bolivia, where Richard Gaudet and John Studley run an airplane rental service. Their mechanics are John Rogers and Louis Williams. Keeping the records are secretaries Sheila Palumbo, Pat Ahearn, and Roberta Plummer. In the jungle we Und teachers Sue Wallace and Sue Coflan, and nurses Joanne DeMatteo and Nancy Snow, who run a missionary school for the natives. We stop at Harry Chlckles' gas station to fuel up and find Dave Higgins working there as a mechanic. We stop to talk to some natives because journalists Judith Anderson and Norma Clark wish to gather informa- tion to publish in Billy Fox's big newspaper. Now we must leave for Australia. We board our boat and are greeted by Captain Emle Cherry. On board we meet scientist James 0'Brien, who is working on a new seasick pill. In Australia we are welcomed by Bill Brown, U. S. Representative to Australia. With him are Leo Beane, business executive for the Richard Weed Wool Company and his sec- reta.ry Diane Riley. We visit Kurt Kalser's Kangaroo Koral, where secretary Pat McMe- nimencountskangaroosastheyjumpoverafence. OnourlastdayinAustra.l1a,we dine with Paul Billcki, prosperous sheep ranch owner. We are bade farewell by Paul Vingerhoet, Mayor of Melbourne. It is time to go back to satelite space wheel and return to the U. S. As we soar over the West Coast of the U. S., the telescope focuses on John Delrossi and Dick Demerle surfboarding at Malibu under the watchful eye of Kevin Hurton, lifeguard. John pg- merino and Shirley Crocker are selling hot dogs to sunbathers, Pat Watters, and Jean Meuse. Passing over the Pebble Beach Golf Course, we see golf instructors Richard Daley and Joe Mc Whinnle showing duffers Ruth Drady and Richard Cummings how to sit in an electric golf cart driven by Bob Hugo. We are approaching Santa Anita Race 'Track owned and operated by John Healy and Rose Mahoney. A race is in progress with track's tiniest jockey, Ed Mllley, in the lead, but he is p1u'sued by Richard Parr on a gray mare, which horsetraders Gail Munro, Richard D'Entremont, and Ellen Carboneau own. Cashiers at the betting windows count the receipts while guards Walter Sowyrda and Ron Petruocl carry on a conversation with Rlck Silvey, the track veterinarian. The telescopic eye focuses on Janet Pletrafitta's prune ranch. It's harvest time and prune pickers Paul McNulty and Carol Kelley are busy loading the fruit on to a truck driven by Harold Shea. Beyond the ranch is the Arizona Desert. From one of Pat Taylor's mines we spy a wagonload of borax driven by muleskinners Mike Nardone and Steve Curran. We see the destination of the borax: Pease Air Force Base, commanded by James Rattray. James Mussells and Judy Crosby, fighter pilots. are busy inspecting their plane with mechanics Buss Ferris and Bob Call. A short distance from the base is Dallas Football Stadium, where we see linemen Matty 0'Keefe, Dick Pletraiitta, and William Chetwynd playing for the N. Y. Giants. We are now over the bayoux of Louisiana. Below us is Mike Anderson's oil well rig with wildcatters Gall Davidson and Pat Driscoll setting a drilling bit. Larry Freethy and Bob Dlgnan, charter boat captains, are fishing in the bayoux for tarpon with their cus- tomer, Ed Almeida, a well-to-do executive. Bob Frederick, a frogman, is spearing Lobsters to feed the sharks at Ed Walsh's aquarium. The state of Tennessee looms on the horizon as we see Dave Mac Clellan piloting a steamboat on the Mississippi. He stops to watch Kathleen Joyce, spray-plane Dyer, dust a rutabager patch. We are now over North Carolina. Below us is a bowling alley where Professional Bowler Sal D'Amico is ordering a hamburger from Sandy Mc Sorley's snack bar. Now over South Carolina, we see Marine drill instructors Dave Courtenay and Gerry Gilvey making recruits wallow through a swamp at Parris Island. Ron Rutledge, in a Sherman Tank, quickly comes to the rescue. As the rocket starts back to the space wheel, the research staff, Jeannette Accetta, Louise Leone, and Barbara Renaud, under the direction of Beverly LeBlanc, begin process- ing scientific data collected in various parts of the world. As the rocket lands on the wheel, the crew is greeted by James Gascolgne, public relations man, who informs the captain that he is to take a load of passengers back to earth. Carol Coakley, Patricia Brooks, and Leslie Workman have decided to return to New York to become models at Elaine Correlro's modeling agency. After John Carbone has refueled the ship and every- one is ready to go, Anita Loomis and Suzanne MacDonald at the last minute decide to leave to take a finished picture to the Guggenheim Museum. On the flight the rocket develops a short circuit in the codee maker, and Robert Ned, the engineer accompanying the flight, quickly repairs it. When the rocket lands at Idlewild Airport, our models rush of! to Laurie Howard's beauty salon, where Sandra Ballard and Sandra Hill style their hair in the latest fashion. After a visit to Kathleen Haladay, a beautician, for advice on make-up, the girls are ready to take Andrew MacDonald's taxi to Virginia Healey's dress shop, where there is to be a showing featiuing the clothes designed by Linda Canty and Carol Atwater. At the show, actress Adele Luplen is looking for a gown for her new picture, which also stars Jean Hamel. Back at the airport, Joan Jarema and Sheila Lucey are making arrangements for passage back to the space wheel in order to set up an adult education center. As they approach the space wheel Joan Malonson, the resident nurse, suddenly discovers she left her thermometer back at the airport and the rocket returns to get lt. Oh, the telescopic television apparatus has just experienced a failure! Now we can no longer see the activities of our former classmates as they make their way in the world.
