7 Our basketball team experienced a building year. Many underclassmen benefited from their game experience. The season ended on a happy note with our team defeating the arch-rival Bourne. The Winter track team did extremely well, proving once again that the athletes at Wareham High School are fast, At last our tour years are gone! It seems rather sad that we have to go, but we are taking many fond memories with us. SIGNED Jim Besse Linda Carey Rise Lundblad WRITERS OF THE CLASS HISTORY Rise Lundblad, Jim Besse, Linda Carey

T We can all .remember The Battle of the Term Paper. lt all started in Room 6 with a list of topics and a little Blue Book. Since, for most of us, it was our first encounter with a term paper, we emerged completely baffled. A As spring rolled around, we anticipated a field trip to Fenway Park. When the day arrived, we were ready. We had packed everything from food to sunglasses. Even though we needed um- brellas, and the Red Sox lost, we all had fun, including Mrs. Burke. Along with spring came Final Exams. After three years of them, we managed to come through with our heads above water. Also, in the spring, we were saddened with the fatal shooting of Martin Luther King. ln May, the Class of 1968 left, and we unofficially began our reign as seniors. Wayne Lopes and James Walsh served as class marshalls at the graduation ceremonies. Robert Paling received the Harvard Book Award as the most outstanding iunior boy. Boys' State Representatives were Robert Paling, Robert Caldwell, Robert Alcott, David Hunter, and David Hocking. Girls' State Representative was Christine Braley. At last we made the big time-big, bad seniors! Remembering our freshman experiences, we played Pick on the Freshmen and the Sophomores and the Juniors. Co-captains for the football team were Ronnie Hunter and Wayne Lopes. We might not have had a winning season in terms of victories, but we had a tremendous year in school spirit. We beat the Bulldogs for the third consecutive year, winning the elusive Cranberry Bowl . . . for keeps! Our only senior on the cheerleading squad was Debbie Williams. At the end of the season, Jim Besse was named Best Offensive Player, and Ronnie Hunter was named Best Defensive Player. Both were awarded trophies. Gerhard Kellner came to join our class as the foreign exchange student from Vienna, Austria. He was the brother of James Eacobacci. Brian Fitzgerald and Dianne Winberg were chosen as TELFAD representatives from our senior class. During the fall, the students of Wareham High School experienced two bomb scares. The first time, we all went to the Town Hall while the building was searched. The second time, we all trooped into the small gymnasium at the Intermediate School. Those who couldn't fit were kep1 out in the cold. Our senior class officers were elected. Francine Canute was elected president, Susan Marble, vice president, Gary Franklin, treasurer, Aldonna Perry, secretary, and Patti Moore, dance chairman. At the end of the first marking period, we had our first Honor Society lnduction for the year. Seniors inducted were Dianne Winberg and Francine Canute. Gerhard Kellner was made an honorary member. These students ioined Bette Joe, Robert Paling, Brian Fitzgerald, Susan Kaasi- nen, and David Weeden, who had already been inducted as juniors. Some of our classmates received some well-deserved honors during the year. Kathy Barrett received the Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow Award. David Weeden was a semi-finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Test. Linda Carey was chosen Key Club Sweetheart.
