v. mm msD IPPIW IT. i;! D @11111 THE INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE THE GAME THAT SHOOK THE WORLD Weaver 85 — Central 73 (overtime) 4 We of the Portal Board have tried to compare our years at Weaver to a pioneer wagon train headed West. We hope the com¬ parison is a realistic one, and that it will continue to bring fond mem¬ ories to our classmates in future years. Many times the wagons with their hearty and bold adventurers drifted endlessly for miles, keeping little or maybe never to the course. We of ’58 have also floundered on our journey, and some have even lost their way. But like the rugged frontiersmen of long ago we will all, eventually, reach our desired destination. Some of our class- mates are ready now to settle down and take their place in the com¬ munity. Others are not so content, and must move on to new and more promising horizons. The train creeps slowly but surely over the endless plains. Some settle here, some wait for the next stop, and others, the restless ones, will con¬ tinue further into the empty plains to achieve their goals. But we all have one main and important thing in common. Our beginning was the same! Weaver, our starting point, will never be forgotten. We hope that this Portal will make it impossible for the class of 1958 to forget our wonderful, exciting, and most beneficial four years “on the trail”! G.A.M. This year the class of ’58 is pleased to dedicate its classbook to three members of the Weaver faculty. These three teachers have worked constantly for the benefit of the students. They will always be remembered for their friendliness, sincerity, and able instruction. Vive la chimie! Our excellent teacher not only aided us with our assigned studies, but was always willing to help solve a student’s personal problem. Her after-school meet¬ ings, which often lasted till dusk, were not only helpful, but oh, so refreshing. We will never forget her sense of fairness, her hints on lab technique, and the pride which she held for the new laboratory that she herself designed. But most of all we remember our Chemistry Teacher as a warm-hearted and sincere person. Weaver Nite is a success! Again the tireless efforts of one of the male faculty members are rewarded. Long hours of time, combined with patient and skillful direct¬ ing, have resulted in sheer entertainment. Kind-hearted¬ ness and generosity, his outstanding qualities, are seen in his daily routine as teacher to some and friend to all. As we blaze our trail through the long path of adulthood, we 6 MR. GEORGE THOMAS MR. REGINALD DE VAUX shall never dismiss from our memories the joyful Weaver Nites, and “thousands” of hours of music he gave us. He is truly the music man of Beaver County. Many have said history is a bore. This statement has definitely been proved false by a most amusing and in¬ telligent instructor. The warm and ready smile which was so often seen on his face was well worth the toil to which his students were accustomed. He has always taken ut¬ most pride in his students’ achievements, and has worked diligently preparing them for the future. His personal in¬ tegrity was appreciated by his many students and friends in his after-school discussions. His glowing personality, frankness, and teaching ability add up to an excellent teacher and a stimulating person. These are just a few of the reasons we chose to honor these three wonderful people. We are extremely proud and joyful to dedicate this, the Portal of 1958, to Miss Elizabeth Sawyer, chemistry; Mr. Reginald DeVaux, music; and Mr. George Thomas, history. This is our way of saying thank you and God bless you. I Mr. William F. Aitken The road is at an end—so quickly that it is difficult to believe that four years have flown by. Yet one of the happiest memories from our venture of education at Weaver High School will be our Principal, William F. Aitken. Mr. Aitken has been our “trail blazer” during the four years in “Beaver County,” years that were often dif¬ ficult, but mostly filled with “moments of the memorable.” With his sincere friendship and helpful guidance, he has, in the face of countless responsibilities and tasks, made our en¬ deavors and studies much easier and hap¬ pier. Our principal, Mr. Aitken, a man well qualified to lead students “headed for hori¬ zons, unlimited,” has taken an enthusiastic interest in each and every Weaverville ac¬ tivity. Never for a moment has he turned from the task of leading our “wagon train.” Tirelessly and unselfishly he dedicated him¬ self to us and our goals. We have successfully reached the end of the road, finding before us a maze of new paths to be trodden. As we step from the Beaver County schoolhouse for the last time, it is with a tearful good-bye and a deep appreciation to Mr. Aitken. Student Council Officers Seated, left to right; Classman, J. Le¬ vine, M. Lutin, D’Esopo. Standing: Miss Roche, Perkins, Karg- man, Reardon, Mr. Aitken. 8 Mr. Ezra Melrose Most of us in the class of ’58 have come in contact with Mr. Ezra Melrose’s friend¬ ly personality and sincerity. When needed, he has been only too willing to help. His presence was noticed at all our school func¬ tions, educational, social, or athletic, and his loyal Weaver spirit and his intense in¬ terest in the student body were shown at all these events. We certainly are able to call Mr. Melrose one of “our best scouts” along the Weaver trail, who has done an excellent job in leading us through four wonderful years. As advisor of the Boys’ Club he has tire¬ lessly worked to make this group a working organization, which has done such a great deal for the school. We shall never forget you, and how you have so kindly aided us. We can only say thanks, and best of luck in the future. Miss Anita K. Roche As we bid a sad adieu, our thanks to a friend loyal and true. Miss Anita K. Roche, our Dean of Girls . . . her sincere helpful¬ ness given so willingly helped us conquer many a “rocky trail through Beaverland” . . . the energy behind the scenes of many Weaver activities . . . the pleasant atmos¬ phere she created for us made W.H.S. a second home ... a countenance that con¬ tinuously radiates the sunshine of a smile . . . graciously she offered suggestions and encouragement for our many projects . . . abounding in energy, friendliness, helpful¬ ness, and understanding . . . the Class of 1958 extends a sincere vote of gratitude for all she’s done throughout our Weaver years. 9 O’er the lands of education We have travelled these four years. We discovered paths of knowledge New to us, the pioneers. With our teachers’ able guidance We did plow the fertile land. Gath’ring fruits unseen by human eye Untouched by human hand. Though the times were often trying Still we kept our spirit high And when all our work was over From our lips escaped a sigh. Then we turned to fun and happiness, Diversions much awaited, To partake in gay activities Our zeal yet unabated. Now still new frontiers await us. And on Graduation Day We must leave our well-loved settlement Beaver County, U.S.A.

FOOTBALL Although plagued by weather, injuries, and ineligibility, the bold Beavers gave a good account of themselves this year. Although at full strength seldom, they fought with vigor in every game to compile a 2-6 season’s record. Near mid-season, helped by the recovery of the injured co¬ captain, Fred Tinsley, the team jelled and defeated Norwich and Bulkeley in succession. Although the Green and White was unable to defeat our rival Hartford on Thanksgiing Day, the boys put up a stiff flight, which is all that can be asked of a team. The fine work of Coach Beidler and co-cap- tains Fred Tinsley and Joel Millstein highlighted an otherwise unrewarding season.

CROSS-COUNTRY In spite of the encouraging start of the 1957 cross-country season, the Weaver Harriers were victorious in just one of nine meets, winning only against Woodrow Wilson at Middletown. In spite of this unimpressive record, the team gave a fair account of itself in most of its contests, and its potentialities will probably be realized in the next two seasons. With only two returning lettermen. Coach Colin Wilson had to depend largely on last year’s Junior Varsity team and new recruits. By far the season’s best runner was Captain Richard Cabral, who led the Wilsonmen at most meets and was elected to the Capital District Conference All-Star Cross Country Team. Other consistently good performers were co-captains elect Jerry Fierstein and Colum¬ bus Woodard. On the way—miles to go!

BASKETBALL After a slow start, the Weaver basketball team of ’57-’58 went on to compile a creditable 12-6 won and lost record. Coach Frank Scelza’s first Beaver team, therefore, qualified for the playdown round of the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference Tournament. Although unsuccessful in their attempt to re¬ tain their state crown, the Beavers still experienced a very successful season. Starting out very slowly, the Beavers edged East Hartford in their first contest, 42-41. This was the Beavers’ twenty-fifth consecutive triumph in inter¬ scholastic competition. However, this string was broken by a very formidable Norwich quintet in their next outing. The Scelzamen then came upon a string of bad luck which saw the Beavers drop three of their next five contests by the amazing total of four points. Two of these defeats came at the hands of Hall and Hartford as the Beavers were edged by one point in each game. Not discouraged by this touch of bad luck. Weaver fought back courageously and successfully. They captured nine of their remaining eleven contests mowing down both Hartford and Bulkeley on the way. John Norman, Russell Carter, and Rick Turner were the standouts for the Beavers in this tremendous stretch drive. The next step for our “fighting five” was the playdown round of the state interscholastic tournament. With confidence the Beavers traveled to Terryville to meet our arch rival New Haven Hillhouse. The team got oflF to a slow start, tally¬ ing only 16 points in the first half. The Beavers never did catch the New Haven team but almost pulled it out with a valiant effort in the second stanza. However, they fell just short in their bid for victory, trailing 53-50 as the final buzzer sounded for the 1958 team. Although everyone was disappointed at the Beaver’s defeat in Terryville, all in all the season was quite successful. Our new coach Frank Scelza did a “swell” job at the helm during his first season as the Beavers’ chief mentor. GET IN THERE! ALL MINE, FELLAS! OH! MY HEAD “—WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE.” CHALK UP TWO!

CLASS HIGHLIGHTS FRESHMAN YEAR One morning, four years ago, as the September sun crept over the hills of Beaver County, we entered the Weaver High Schoolhouse as wide-eyed, be- wddered freshmen. We were beginning a journey that seemed an endless trek over dark and unknown trails! But we soon fell into the “Weaver Routine,” and strains of “Til Then” withdrew to the back of our memories as “Three Coins in the Fountain” found a warm place in all our hearts! Up and Down stairways, absurdly short lunch periods (freshman indigestion), and dreaded ciphers became second nature to us all, and we felt more at home in this strange new town of Weaverville. It was now that we experienced our first Turkey Day Heartbreak, for our own Beavers were defeated by a score of 13 to 0! Many of our “lucky” freshmen attended their First Formal—the Winter Whirl, and we insignificant beings danced away an enjoyable evening ... as snowflakes whirled about. “It’s for the Birds” introduced to our once-bewildered-but-now-rapidly-adjusting class¬ mates the tradition of Weaver Night. The months flew by, and school was fleeting away. June was here! Gerald Davidson won the prize for the highest average (one of our first to be recognized). Then came the summer, hot and memorable, and a new road to be taken m September. We were on our way! SOPHOMORE YEAR With the coming of those from Northeast, we sophisticated sophomores began the year by welcoming Miss Roche, Mr. Beidler, Mr. Hill, and Mr. Dyer to our pioneer family. With a year of experience behind us, we found the trail not so rough after all, and began taking our part in the many activities, Carol D’Esopo, Bernice Holehouse, and Edith Yoselle, in red socks, timidly tried to act self-assured as they took over their squads in gym. Carol was thrilled to be chosen as a cheer¬ leader, and we all cheered about the beautiful new bleachers installed in the gym. The first semester passed quickly, as we once again had an unhappy Thanksgiving Day, but retained high hopes for next year! Janice Christian became our repre¬ sentative on the JCC and Gloria Smith, Fred Tinsley, and Edith Yoselle suc¬ cessfully passed their All-State auditions. We congratulated Judy Lindenberg and A1 Kaufman, who became Sophomores of the Month, and also Bob Christensen, Lois DeMaio, Maxine Harris, Judy Lindenberg, Mike Lutin, Judy Robbins, and Gloria Smith, who helped to make Weaver Night a huge success. We saw Jasper wearing his new Letter Sweater, our gift to a wonderful hand on the Weaver Rancho. We cheered on the “fabulous five” at home and then followed them to New Haven and Boston. Although we didn’t get too far in Boston, we were satisfied with the State Championship — that year. Before we knew it the year was over, and many of us went looking for our first jobs.

(We finally made it). Before we knew it, we were m full swing with the football season. Many were the fabulous rallies with Mr. Wahl saying, “I still can’t hear you; you’ll have to make it louder than that! ...” All our cheering paid off as we, our Beavers, beat HPHS for the first time in eight years in a never-to-be-forgotten game! Fred Tinsley and Joel Millstein were elected co-captains of the ’57-’58 team. With our throats still hoarse from cheering and our limbs sore as a result of the physical fitness tests in gym, we looked forward to a big basketball season. We were overjoyed when the “fabulous five” won the city and state championships and retained their perfect record. Many of us had laryngitis for days after we came home from Boston with the New England Class A Championship. Mean¬ while many activities were in progress. Many of us helped to make Weaver Night Varieties a big success. In the spring the Inter-High Choir went to Washington, D.C., and Edith Yoselle, Bob Christensen, and Mark Shapiro went to Atlantic City to participate in the All-Eastern Music Festival. Many of our scholars were honored that spring. Sixteen juniors were admitted to the Honor Society, and Junior Ushers were selected. Gerry Davidson had dreams of a gay summer in Europe as recipient of the Wise Scholarship. Benny Thomas and his committees were busy as Beavers with plans for the Junior Prom. Augie Schoen, and Doris Gianninoto reigned over the “Teahouse of the April Moon” which was the greatest yet. After the Junior Tea, many elections got under way, as we prepared to take over the management of Rancho Weaver. Mike Lutin was elected President of the Student Council with Carol D’Esopo, Judy Levine, and Nancy Glassman on the executive board to help him out. We saluted Carol D’Esopo in her new office of President of the Girls’ League and congratulated its new officers Judy Linden- berg, Feme Ware, and Madeline Chesery. Fred Tinsley was elected head of the Boys’ Club with John Norman, Benny Thomas, and Ralph Carucci on the board. The Lookout was turned over to Thelma Sack and her co-editors, and Lewis Lutin took over the finances of the paper. Jerry McNamara and A1 Kaufman were elected editor and manager of the book you’re now reading! Then came the ex¬ citing day when Carol D’Esopo and Feme Ware were chosen to represent us at Laurel Girls’ State. A1 Kaufman, Jerry McNamara, John Norman, and Fred Tinsley joined the girls at UConn as members of Nutmeg Boys’ State. We bade a sad adieu to Mr. Darling and Miss Haselton and looked forward to a wonderful summer vacation before the “Big year.” SENIOR YEAR We climbed upon the Weaver wagon for the last time. We were seniors and eager to be back and to get to work—there was so much to be done that year! We found many new changes on the old homestead.

Kaiifin; faculty welcomed us in our classrooms and warned us of the new full-year mark¬ ing system and the new passing grade of sixty. We found a fourth lunch period added which gave some of us an extra twenty-minute study period while others had to slave for a whole hour. We cheered for our football team which ended the season with a 2-7 record, but we were proud anyhow because it was our team, lhat year we were represented on JCC by Janice Christian, John Heckman, Hillel Hyman, Beulah Pace, and Calvin Pisetsky. Judy Lindenberg and her committees made “Fantasia Royale” one of the best Goodwill formals we ever attended. The impatient scientists finally had the opportunity to work in the new chem lab, while members of the Biology Club planned ahead for a bright spring season by planting daffodils around the school. This was rush season for the scholars. Ap¬ plications were filed to colleges, and there were so many tests to be taken! Arlene Horenstein, Gerry Davidson, and John Heckman became finalists in the Merit Scholarship Program while the rest of us struggled through College Boards. Honors and more honors. Twenty-six seniors were admitted to the Honor So¬ ciety. Feme Ware won the DAR award, Christina Nicholson, our top scientist, won the Bausch and Lomb prize, and Bill Burns was the winner of the Bill of Rights Contest. Meanwhile the city was in an uproar about Hillel Hyman’s proposal for a new school for budding “eggheads.” The “fabulous five” made an impressive 12-7 record but failed to get to New Haven that year. We took our last mid-year exams and started down the home stretch. There were so many activities in progress we barely had time for homework! Class officers were elected and plans for the many senior activities got under way. Carol D’Esopo won the 1958 Miss HADA Award, and our “friend” Jasper was honored by the Rotary Club. Weaver Night and the Dramatic Club play were the best yet. Then arrived the eventful month of May. We received our notices from colleges, and finally we could make plans for next Fall. The Senior Banquet, planned by Judy Lindenberg, was won¬ derful. We thought those “ranks” were bad, but we had yet to witness Class Night! There we had the first thrill of wearing our caps and gowns. The month of June was one never to be forgotten. The great Class outing was the last time besides graduation that we were all together as a class. We’ll never forget the “fantabulous” Senior Reception on which Edie Yoselle and her committees worked so hard. Then came the climax to four wonderful years on the Beaver Ranch. Sitting on the Bushnell stage on June 19, we were so proud to hear Paul Wortman deliver his “salutatory” that we hardly minded the heat. When we heard the last words of Gerry Davidson’s valedictory, mixed emotions were felt by all of us. We were thrilled and overjoyed, but, at the same time, a little sad at leaving the old homestead which had been such a big part of our lives for four years. The knowledge and wisdom we gained there will be measured in years to come, but our satisfaction and enjoyment will never be forgotten! ry Graf Reigns as Qu e en Of Co urt at F antasia Royale Murday To Be Out of This World’ I.oo TheiiH II1|)Ih 11V W (‘avei Christina Nicholson, Feme Ware Win Bausch and Lomh.
