,hV - � wiJt:.. ' C ' ' ' Ex Libris Foreword As we graduate from Weaver and leave her portals behind us, we are leaving behind not only a school, but also a part of our lives that we can only relive in our minds. These past four years have been four of the most important years of our lives, for during them we have had our greatest growth physically, mentally, and emotionally. We have been formnate to have spent them at Weaver where there have been so many oppormnities for each of us to make the best pos¬ sible advancement. Our school has always held high ideals, which have been passed on to us, the class of 1961, to carry out and maintain; our school has a proud tradition which we should always think of with pride. Although now we are setting out towards new and varied portals, together we share the hope that the ideals set for us and the experi¬ ence we have gained will enable us to successfully carry out our roles in life. We of the Portal Board would like to add our own hope that this yearbook may serve to keep alive the friendships and happy memories of our high school days. R.F.M. Our greatest growth physically” A proud tradition— think of with pride.” The Class of 1961” Happy memories of our high school days” Dedication MR. NICHOLAS C. CORACCI A friend is a man who radiates a spirit of overflowing good will, and hat can better describe one of the friendliest, busiest members of our faculty, who has given his service and loyalty to Weaver in every possible way? He has been more than just a teacher; he has been a helpful guide and inspiration to all his students. He is probably more well known at Weaver than any other teacher because whenever a game is coming up, he can be found, sporting his famous smile, asking us to please show our AA cards for tickets. This fine teacher probably spends most of his waking hours at Weaver; even during the long, hot summer he can be found in the annex advising the girls on how to fit 1500 students into about 70 classes a period! As we leave Weaver, one of our fondest memories will always center around this man, to whom we proudly dedicate this, the Portal of 1961. MISS MARGARET A. FLEMING A touch of humor was always prevalent in one of our nicest teacher’s classes. None of us ever minded learning our mathematics in her class, for she had so many interesting methods of teaching us its principles. A dedicated teacher, she was always willing to spend as much time as was needed to help any student understand his work and solve his difficulties. She treated every one of us as a real friend, and was just as interested in all of our personal problems and our achievements as she was in teaching us mathematics. Beacuse of the enjoyment she put into her subject and the interest she dis¬ played, to her we happily dedicate our 1961 Portal. Words of gratitude can only partially express our admiration for three fine faculty members ' . Mr. Nicholas Coracci of the business depart¬ ment, Miss Margaret Fleming of the mathe¬ matics department, and Mr. George Dei ine of the English department to whom we, the Class of 1961 . wish to dedicate this PORTAL. MR. GEORGE J. DEVINE We would like to remember this member of our faculty as a part of the Class of 1961 as he entered the portals of Weaver at the same time we did and will now leave with us to further his education. Easily iden¬ tified by his collegiate crew-cut, friendly grin, and his famous How’s by you?’’, he has always proved himself helpful to all who sought his advice. A member of the English Department, he has done much to enrich our vocabularies and develop our intellectual capacities. His excellent teaching and helpful attitude have made him one of our favorites” whom we shall always think of with warmth and thanks. With sincere gratitude for the fine work he has done, we dedicate to him, the Portal of 1961, with the hope that we live up to the ideals he has set for us. MR. WILLIAM F. AITKEN When the members of the class of 1961 look back on their. 7 e{u:s at,.Weaver, the personality of one man will stand out among all others—that of oui principal, Mr. William F. Aitken. We are grateful to him for his understanding, his sound ad 3 fkf , and his encouragement. He has guided us in a firm but gentle manner down the road of life, and his tireless efforts have served to make us happier and more mature individuals. Mr. Aitken’s influence upon us will not end with our graduation. Having known such an admirable and respected man will, undoubtedly, help us to become better men and women. As we pass through Weaver ' s portals we pause to bid our friend, our counselor and our leader a fond and Iffectionate farewell. . t MR. EZRA MELROSE A man, tall in stature, dressed in a dark suit, and sporting a wide grin, can hardly be mistaken for any one but our own vice¬ principal, Mr. Ezra Melrose. Those of us who know Mr. Melrose personally admire and respect his gift of understanding and his power of command. Those of us who greet him from afar wonder how he can take control of any and all situations rang¬ ing from disciplinary action to cheering our teams on to victory. No one can dispute his characteristic good sportsmanship and his keen sense of humor. We look up to Mr. Melrose and hope to acquire his qualities of friendliness, wit, sincerity, and personal interest in others. We shall never forget him, nor wiU he forget our class of ’61. We shall look back upon our years at Weaver and think about this man, who is, for every student, a guid¬ ing light. V- BOYS’ CLUB OFFICERS Seated, left to right: Lee, Martin, Demers, Bartlett.

Always sincere and eager in offering her guidance, Miss Roche’s tireless energy is responsible for many of our fine and successful school projects which are a wonderful credit to Weaver. Yet, as busy as she is, this truly genial and gracious personality seems to find time to create a warm and welcome atmos¬ phere throughout our halls with her lovely smile and encouraging words. A wonderful advisor to the Student Council and to the Girls’ League, Miss Roche merits a well earned and overwhelming vote of thanks from the Class of ’61.

Industry on Parade Getting a Headstart in College Fads ’n’ Fashions vx History and Highlights FRESHMAN YEAR One September morning, four years ago, the Class of 1961 entered Weaver as wide-eyed, bewildered freshmen. There were many major changes that appeared with us. A fourth lunch period was added, many new teachers arrived, a new credit system was installed, and the passing mark was raised from 50 to 60. Our first activity (at least for the girls) was the Girls’ League Get-Acquainted Party. Jean Grasso was then elected Freshman Member to the Girls’ League. When report cards came out, the Freshmen led the honor roll numerically, with H. Lee Michelson earning all A’s. The Ivy-League Football Hop and the Football Rally preceded the annual Thanks¬ giving Day game. We sadly experienced our first Turkey Day Heartbreak as HPHS downed the Beavers 20-7. A few of the lucky” freshmen attended the Goodwill Formal, Fantasia Royale,” sponsored by the Girls’ League. Our first Weaver night was just Out of this World.” David Noyes had twenty winning entries in the Connecticut Scholastic Art Com¬ petition, and was featured as the LOOKOUT’S Personality of the Month.” In the spring, Jimmy Carey and Debbie Lindenberg had major parts in the Dra¬ matic Club play, The Imaginary Invalid.” The months just seemed to fly by and soon Angelo Rinaldi was elected Vice-Presi¬ dent of the Student Council for our Sophomore year. Miss Levy, Miss Phillips, and Mr. Van Schaack retired after many years of service to Weaver. Then came the summer, hot and memorable. We began to look forward to the new road we were to take in September. We were on our way! 82 Richard Cion, Lee Michelsoi Merit Scholarship Finalists InOratoricalCott ' ' £ Loj W1S0 I ' iccolo tr H ouncu niors k To Liv Miriam.

Because we had had a year of experience behind us, it was not so difficult for us to get in the swing of things,” and so we began to take our part in many activities. Sue Barnard, Polly Bradley, Dorothy Grooms, Linda Greenwald, Sally Miller, Linda Morse, and Susan Zachs tried to act self-assured in their red socks as they took over their squads in gym. Sue Mirkin attended the Junior Red Cross Training Center. Although the Beavers lost the Thanksgiving Day football game to HPHS, we had new majorettes who brightened the field. The Goodwill Formal, Prelude to Winter,” was termed a big success by all who attended. Nancy Barron, Amelia Di Mella, Elaine Jones, and Kulli Kohler modeled some of the beautiful clothes from the Acorn Shop in the Spring Fashion Show,’’ staged by the Girls’ League. Angelo Rinaldi represented the Sophomore Class on the commit¬ tee for the Mardi Gras” dance sponsored by the Student Council. The Boston-Bound” Weaver Beavers’ varsity squad beat the Fearless Faculty Five—by—Fives” in The Student-Faculty Frolic” held in February. Our baskerball team ended the season with an impressive 16-2 record. Susan Barnard, Kulli Kohler, Linda Krantz, Debbie Lindenberg, Sally Miller, Sue Mirkin, and Elaine Nowak starred in The Jacqueline Farr Show,” the Weaver Night production for this year. We congratulate Jean Grasso for being elected Vice-President of both the Student Council and the Girls’ League. Bob Bartlett, Amado Cruz, and Irv Ross were voted members of the Boys’ Club Eecutive Board for our Junior year, and Carol Beebe and Elaine Nowak were chosen for the Girls’ League Board. Pauline Bradley, Kulli Kohler, and Barbara Summers were selected as cheerleaders for the ’59-’60 season. Before we knew it the year was over, and many of us went looking for our first jobs! 83 JUNIOR YEAR When we entered the school as upperclassmen, many of us found ourselves eligible for Honor Study Halls and Driver Education. After a spirited campaign, Elaine Nowak was the lucky junior to become a member of the JCC During the Girls’ League Annual Assembly, Mr. Melrose was presented with a clock to celebrate his tenth anniversary at Weaver. Mr. Aitken was given the novel, Advise and Consent” for his birthday, an event which conveniently falls on the same day as the assembly every year! The fun-filled Thanksgiving Rally helped spur our power-packed eleven on to victory over HPHS. Those husky football players certainly looked graceful in their cheerleading outfits. Soon winter came, and with it the Snowflake Fantasy.” We could have danced all night.” Howard Dorfman made us all proud by winning the American Legion Oratorical Contest. The Weaver Night presentation of Hawaiiana” was cool” with beatniks dominating the scene. Rosalie Markel did a nice job of commentating” on the Girls’ League Annual Fashion Show. For the first time, we were organized as a class when Amado Cruz was elected class President, Mark Aron, Vice-President, and Jean Grasso, Treasurer. In the spring we took part in Career Days and learned about many professions. Our first big class function was Heavenly,” our fabulous Junior Prom. At the Junior Faculty Tea the girls became better acquainted with the members of the faculty. The Dramatic Club presentation of Lute Song” was helped to success by the superb acting of Debbie Lindenberg and Jimmy Carey. We were all happy to become the first class to order class rings in its junior year. As summer approached, twenty-one boys were chosen to be Junior Ushers for the graduating Seniors. After winning the Wise Scholarship Award, Richard Cion looked forward to a wonderful summer abroad accompanied by Mr. Thomas. Donald Giller took over the leadership of The Lookout, while Rosalie Markel and Howard Dorfman became, respectively, editor and business manager of The Portal. I Also, Miriam Batt was selected to head our literary magazine. The Review, for the coming year. Six of our class were given the opportunity of participating in small-scale govern¬ ment during the summer vacation. Ruth Guilbeau and Miriam Batt were chosen to attend Laurel Girls ' State, while Richard Piccolo, Larry Davidson, Cliff Demers, and Neville Cooke represented Weaver at Nutmeg Boys’ State. Before leaving another memorable year behind, we elected Barbara Summers presi¬ dent of the Girls’ League and Clifford Demers president of the Boys’ Club for our Senior Year. 1 Home For Holiday __ SENIOR YEAR Finally our year had arrived! But, oh what changes met us as we returned in the fall! Everyone, faculty and students alike, found themselves completely confused with the new rotating schedules: it was many a week before we figured out this new system. The school day was extended twenty-six minutes, and activity periods were discontinued. Officers, elected by each class, replaced the homeroom representatives on the Student Council: seniors elected Amado Cruz as President and Richard Piccolo head of the Council, with Jean Grasso and Mark Aron serving as treasurers. We were all pleased to learn that Lee Michelson and Richard Cion qualified as Merit semi-finalists. After the usual spirited campaign we voted to have Elaine Nowak, Larry David¬ son, Joe Dolan, Ken Fabian, and Ivan Karp represent us on the Junior City Council, which later elected Ken Fabian, Mayor. Howard Corr was chosen to head the Orchestra, and Bill Jones, the Honor Society. Our grief at losing the Thanksgiving Day game was multiplied by Amado Cruz’s injury. What a sportsman he proved himself! Everyone enjoyed the winter formal, Winter Nocturne,” reigned over by Queen Kathy Duffy. Jean Grasso was the able chairman of this event. Barbara Summers was announced as the recepient of the Daughters of the Amer¬ ican Revolution Award. At a special assembly we proudly presented our fine principal, Mr. Aitken, with his portrait which now rightly takes its place in the lobby with the portraits of our earlier principals. The excitement of electing our other class officers soon came, and we found our¬ selves bestowing our congratulations upon Essayist Barbara Summers; Orator, Howard Dorfman; Prophet, Irving Ross; Prophetess, Elaine Nowak; Historains, Melvin Stoltz and Audrey DuBrow; Testator, James Lackman; Testatrix, Sandra Leverant; Marshalls, John and Joe Dolan, and Frances Sellitto and Marie Nobile, Chairman of the Banquet and Reception respectively. We were also happy to bestow congratulations upon Miriam Batt, who was honored at the Silverman assembly by being named recipient of the Althea and Morris Silverman Book Prize, established by Mr. Louis Fox.

Football Our class has witnessed the turning p oint of Weaver’s fortune on the gridiron. The products of head coach Joe Beidler ' s freshman and sophomore drafting program started paying dividends at the midpoint of our high school years. From identical 2-6 records in our first two years, a marked turnabout was evident in fine showings of 7-2 and 6-3 in our last two years. As for the I960 season, we will never forget the heart-breaking, last-minute, 18-14 loss to the always powerful New Britain squad, nor will we forget that 50-14 target- practice” win over cit) rival Bulkeley on the same Dillon Field. Unformnately we saved most of our mistakes for the H.P.H.S. Turkey Day game, and were defeated in that hard-fought contest. Back home on Batterson Field our record was perfect as Coach Ted Knurek’s hard-blocking, strong-rushing line made up of Nelson, Demers, Holliday, Kaiser, Wilcox, Hilton, and Martin proved the betters of our toughest foes. Right on their heels, the swift, deceptive backfield of Cruz, John Dolan, Lee, Blocker, and Mitchell provided us with many a chilling surprise. After all is said and done, the team held together by taj e” (16 boxes) gave us as fine a season as we had hoped. In addition, the members of this team w’ho will return next season, insure continued success for next year and years to come.

As the season progressed, we lost many of the juniors, but none of the class. Weaver was billed, at the beginning of the season, as the team to watch next year” because of the tremendous potential of the junior class cagers, but we soon became the team to watch ' this year.” Starting off like a house-afire, we erected a formidable 10-1 record, dumping some of the most highly-regarded teams in the state. Bulkeley earned a place on the to be avenged” list by causing the unsightly 1.” The next five games, though, told a different story, as we were tagged with four setbacks in that span. Fortunately, the team righted themselves in time, winning the last two games of the regular season to post a 13-5 record and gain some momentum for the tournament. We entered the post-season scramble rated sixth by a strange formula which Don Clerkin will be puzzling over for about twenty years. At any rate, formula or no formula, we stumbled through the playdowns, emerging victorious over a spirited Bristol Eastern squad. This set the stage for one of those classic of classics—a Weaver- Hillhouse game. We had beaten Hillhouse by a twelve point margin in a pressing contest earlier in the season, but our squad had suffered a few losses since then, and there was some doubt as to our ability-to better wily Coach Sam Bender’s crew again. However, much to the surprise of many, except loyal Beaver fans, we pulled out a sizzling 63-59 victory in a superbly-played heart-stopper that marked the first time in history that Weaver had counted two wins over Hillhouse in the same season. In the semi-finals, we ran into a sharp Hartford High team that put seven baskets between Weaver and a bus ride to Boston! XV I £-U Basketball -1961 It is difficult to pick the high point of this season. We will always remember Mel Newton’s fabulous two-handed dribbling and deadly push-shots, Johnny Lee’s (this year’s high scorer and captain, though only a junior) superb mastery of every phase of the game. Bob Ricks’ picturesque rebounds and long jump shots, Arnie Manderville’s ball handling and scoring, and Cliff Demers’ steady rebounding. Also, who can say that he enjoyed one of the upsets over Hillhouse, Bulkeley, or Norwich better than another. The team, after breaking a three-year jinx in the first Norwich game, fell one basket short of taking the second game also. Another interesting fact about this season is that for the third straight year, the team to beat Weaver in the tournament was the one that later went on to win the New England crown. But with this year’s returnees plus men like John Ward, Len MacElhennon 6t Co. walking through Weaver’s halls. Coach Frank Scelza ought to have a consrderabl y easier time seeing that no team stops us next year, and that the New England championship which we inherited in our freshman year is returned to Weaver! Cross-Country Team From row, left to right: Dzis, Ward, Washington, Sullivan, Hardiman, McElhennon, Mink. 2nd row; Prout, McBride, Johns, Whinnem, W illiams , Smiley. Back row: Hirsch, Mr. Wilson, Walls. Cross - Country The i 960 cross-country team compiled a fine record of 8-2 in dual meet com¬ petition. Under the guidance of Q)ach Colin Wilson and the enthusiastic leadership of co-captains Brian Sullivan and James Hardeman, the team also won outstanding victories in City and State meets. This year’s team set a new ' record in the running time for Keney Park. The previous time record had been 13 minutes and 25 seconds; the new record, set by James Harde¬ man, is 12 minutes and 47 seconds. Only one senior, Brian Sullivan, w ' ill be leaving this year’s squad. Co-captains elect James Harde man, Leonard McElhannon, and John Ward will head the team next year. The future for Weaver in Cross-country looks very promising.

We also extend our thanks to Ellen Kim¬ ball for her literary contribution. Our gratitude goes to Head Typist Frances Sellitto and ' the able girls who assisted her in the preparing of the copy: Theodosia Obieglo, Elaine Nowak, Eileen Malit 2 , Suzanne Mirkin, and Amelia DiMella. We would also like to thank Mr. Cunningham, who prepared our ballots. Mr. Larrabee’s fifth period English class has also earned our gratitude by counting ballots and writing captions for our many pictures. We extend our warmest thanks to our very capable advisors, Mr. Larrabee and Mr. Alibrio, for their unfailing and able assistance. « - 111 SENIOR SUPPLEMENT PSTf f ST... Mr. MELROSE HASN ' T GIVEN THE SIGNAL rETi PORTAL 1961 Senior Banquet OxenHoR On Thursday evening, May 25, our Class held the largest Senior Banquet Weaver has known. After a delicious roast beef dinner Father Robert G. Keating, Chaplain of Cheshire Reformatory and the Meriden School for Boys, both entertained and enlight¬ ened us with his informative speech on young people. Following Reverend Keating’s speech, the class adjourned to the gym where Chairman Frances Sellitto had prepared a surprise. For the first time at a Senior Banquet our gym was gaily decorated in a sea¬ faring motif with brightly colored fishnets scattered about the room and a treasure chest in the center. Another surprise was awaiting us: Victor Nelson, Timmy Martin, Ernie Perry, and Brian Sullivan sang for the group. All too soon we found we had dined and danced away the first of our many wonderful, memorable Senior Class activities. R yj • ' .;, « ;. ■ ' J l 1 ii mf KHlH M H SmiiuMi� : i� - Class Night It was Thursday, June 22, when we saw ourselves in our caps and gowns for the first time at Class Night. Were these young men solemnly marching into the auditorium to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance, the same ones who sat near us in class? After the program had been opened by the singing of America the Beautiful, Amado Cru 2 , our president, welcomed us to the evening’s festivities. Following Amado’s remarks, orator Howard Dorfman delivered his address, and essayist Barbra Summers presented her speech. It was with pride that we listened to Annette Rosenthal sing the beautiful They Say It’s Wonder¬ ful’’. The vocal ensemble of Sharon Kessler, Andrea Lundy, Elnora Johnson, Annette Rosenthal, Charles Martin, Victor Nelson, Brian Sullivan, and Ernest Perry sang a rendition of You’ll Never Walk Alone” from Carousel. Then, the history of the Qass of 1961 was reviewed by Historians Audrey DuBrow and Melvin Stolz. Elaine Nowak and Irving Ross predicted what the future held for us in the Class Prophecy. As a serious interlude between the gay proceedings of the evening, twins Nathalie and Lois Sears displayed their in¬ strumental talent by playing the duet, Spanish Dance”. After their number, Sandra Leverant and James Lackman, testatrix and testator respectively, read our Oass Will. The remarks from our six humourists will long be with us in our memories! As the final event of the evening, Rosalie Markel, editor of the 1961 Portal, announced that the class had dedicated the yearbook to Miss Margaret A. Fleming of the Mathematics De¬ partment, Mr. Nicholas C. Coracci of the Business Department, and Mr. George J. Devine of the English Department. After these faculty members were given a well-deserved ovation, the class sang the Alma Mater. With mixed emotions of happiness and sadness we marched out of the auditorium—another Senior activity over! • ’trii,. It was On a June Night” when we gathered again, this time for our Senior Reception. Our gym, decorated in the true tra¬ dition of the Deep South, had never looked so lovely. The feature attraction amidst the flowers and picket fences was a large blos¬ som laden fountain played upon by multicolored lights. Under drapes of pastel colored chiffon, nearly 25-0 couples danced to the music of Bill Robbins’ orchestra. The evening’s highlight came when Amelia DiMella was proclaimed Queen of our Senior Reception. The Princesses in Amelia’s court were Kulli Kohler, Barbara Summers, Joan Mon- tagno, Joanell Zeniuch, Susan Wilson, and Jean Grasso. All too soon we heard the strains of the Grand March, which was led by chairman Marie Nobile and which signaled the end of our always to be treasured Senior Reception. Only one more Senior event left — Graduation! Graduation June 28 — our graduation! In traditional green and whit caps and gowns we proudly sat on stage and received our well- earned diplomas. For the first of five inspiring speeches, Lois Sears delivered the Salutatory. And a Good Name is Better than All” was the title of James Carey’s address which was followed by Miriam Batt’s speech dealing with the Tree of Life”. After William Jones had delivered his talk on The Arts: Means to World Understanding,” Carol Dameron recited an original poem America, America.” Richard Piccolo closed the student speak¬ ing portion of the program with farewell remarks to and from the Class of 1961. After many awards and scholarships were presented, the class rose to sing the Alma Mater for the last time. Our high school days are over, and we now look ahead to a bright future enriched by four wonderful, memorable years at Weaver. r -.
