As a teacher in the vocational area of the curriculum, he performs a task which may often seem thankless, but which is essential to the total picture of quality education in West Boylston. Beyond his devotion to his students, he has always unselfishly sacrificed his time and energy to aid in the success of innumerable extracurricular ac- tivities. To the man with the friendly and courteous man- ner, whose constant cheerfulness and good humor has touched all of us, we wish to say thanks. It is with admiration and fond appreciation for all that you have done, not only for the Senior Class, but for the entire school, that we dedicate this 1966 Lion ' s Roar to you, Mr. Ralph W. Wilbur. . . . unselfishly sacrificed his time and energy . . . . . . whose constant cheerfulness and good humor has touched us all. 6 Beyond his devotion to his students . . .‘ 8 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 9 SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS: Mr. Robert J.

To go, or not to go, that was the question that entered the minds of a num- ber of our freshmen as they heard for the first time, Mr. Carlton J. O ' Connor read the list of office detentions. However, such light-hearted youthful thoughts were soon transformed into more scholarly ones by a high school-size dose of hard work and the influence of Gary Shannon, our first, and last, student president. G. P. Shannon set the pace and veritable droves of students turned out at the polls to elect a fine slate of officers. Judy LaVigne, demonstrated her political ex- pertise as she walked away with the vice presidential spot. Kevin Kennedy and Elizabeth Fisk became our able representatives in the dog-eat-dog world of the Student Council, while money magnate Dana Dugan assumed the position of class treasurer. The post of class secretary went to dark-horse candidate Diane Sepavich. Under the capable leadership of the class officers, the 1966 group got off to a quick start promoting two dances; The Freshman Frolic, and Come September. As Freshmen, the class gave a real boost to the schools sports perspective. This, the first year our school sponsored spring track, saw our Freshmen form the back- bone of the new team. Track members included Bill Tobin, Guy Metcalf, Jim Forleo, and Dick Castonguay. Outside of school, Duncan Gillies did some publicity work for us as the featured accordionist at the Worcester Home Show. We would now like to turn to Carol Noyes for a special report. Carol who played an integral part in the Sophomore year, reminisces ... It was the year 1964—1 can hear it all now. David Korb, new W.B. student produced a minor wave of hysteria. Students in the corridors, in the locker rooms, everyone whispered: Does he or doesn ' t he? Ginger Grimes joined our ranks, replacing Pam and Jeff Carbtree who departed in June of that year after a gala farewell party held at the home of Ellenore Ernst. In the razz-ama-tazz world of sophomore politics, incumbent President Gary Shannon saw his cabinet begin to take shape: Judy LaVigne, vice president, Diane Sepavich, secretary, Linda Smedberg treasurer, Elizabeth Fisk and Kevin Kennedy, Student Council members. Missile minded members of the class were particulary pleased when, as part of the scientific exchange program, and by courtesy of the French Club, Cafe ' de Paris, we were shown pictures of the latest French moon shot known as the Red Balloon. Following these films, the audience moved into the West Boylston High Cafeteria, recently remodeled by avantgarde designer. Mademoiselle Scopelitti. In the sports world, I remember Bob Johnson, Jimmy Forleo, Gary Shannon, and Paul Gremo dazzled on the basketball court, as did Ellen St. George, new co-cap- tain of the cheerleaders. In field hockey, Judy LaVigne, Ellen St. George, Bonnie Erickson, Janet Soule, and Linda Austin won glory with ball and club ... or whatever it is they use. 36 As summer set in we all felt the atmosphere changing and we knew great things were brewing for us in the year to come . . . Sigh! That next year was one of momentous world affairs. We elected the very same officers as we had before with one exception. Exception Guy Metcalf joined the ranks of the unswitchables as our political babe in the woods at the Student Council. As in all prosperous times, the crime wave soared to staggering heights. One infamous character stood out from the rest. Ward Healer, Lorge embezzled astronomical amounts from our Junior Class under the pretext of producing a Shocker Movie. On the brighter side, Linda Whitcomb and Doris Almstrom joined Ellen as cheer- leaders. Highlighting the ' 65 social season was Noruz , the Junior Prom. The Buddha center piece glittered in the midst of Persian spendor, and the gala evening cli- maxed with the crowning of Queen Elaine Ketola. One minor mishap occurred in connection with the Prom when Gooch Longone sat on the Buddha producing nearly diastrous results. ' 65 marked the beginning of the High School ' s Ski Club. And, that winter, the fashion conscious members were startled by the New Daring Look in ski wear originated by Janet Soule. Well, tlio last September at WBHS rolled around at last and the class of ' 66 re- turned to their school ' s narrow but hallowed halls. Our Senior year marked the emergence of soccer as a major sport at West Boylston. The team was co-captained by Kev Kennedy and Bob Johnson; seniors Louie Pepi, Tom Zickell, Guy Metcalf, Paul Gremo, and John Fortin also made their mark. And the whole school got a boot out of the Seniors post-season triumph over the faculty. 1965 produced a significant drop in crime rates. Office detentions for the class reached an all time low, earning us the well deserved name of the saints of ' 66. Joe Bosowski was an instrumental factor here. However, one gross error marked the school ' s war on crime— Gooch Longone. This was the year that the Smasher was finally brought to justice for his at- tempted sabotage of the Junior Prom buddha. Unforunately, Longone escaped sentence on a legal technicality . . . namely the Writ of Heaviest Corpus. Our Senior year proved a glamorous one too. Ellen St. George, Andrea Herr- mann, and Linda Smedberg were all chosen teen-fashion consultants by the area ' s leading department stores. The Senior Class Play, Bull in a China Shop, provided another shining chapter to the Senior success story. And of course, this was the year of Bal de Noel, a sparkling evening in the true French tradition. Judy LaVighe, escorted by Luke Szufat, was crowned Queen. Yes, the spirit of ' 66 will long be remembered here at West Boylston. The achievements of the class were so many and so varied. Let us hasten to add yet another: Oren Merrill ' s highly reknowned case study of Handstands in Unusual Places, a truly scholarly work if there ever was one. Yes the class of ' 66 has made an indelible impression on the minds of towns- folk, teachers, and underclassmen. In word and deed, the class of ' 66 has written its own epitaph. The class of ' 66— never shall we see their like again . . . Amen. ' 37 Class Reunion 1986 Twenty years after graduation, the reunion committee is at it again. After hav- ing sent out invitations for the big reunion at Tommy Granger ' s house, we are beginning to receive the replies. Attendance is dropping every year— president Gary Shannon leads the drop out list this year. Gary caught a cold by the light of the silvery moon and is being treated by his capable nurse Charlene Lowell. In the bed next to him is Jimmy Forleo who is suffering from an unknown ailment. Rejections are even coming in by airmail. After all this time Virginia Grimes is still abroad, as is Ellenore Ernst. From the African continent, Guy Metcalf is on a big cat hunt. Merilyn Hunter is also on a safari looking for Kevin Kennedy who was last seen in the vicinity of a herd of giraffes. Elizabeth Fisk is a missionary to the cannabalistic tribe of Gouche headed by the ferocious saber tooth, Dave Longone, and she is all in a stew over their actions. Things are being stirred up by Paul Gremo, the witch doctor. Richard Antony Castonguay and Carol Cleopatra Osterberg are somewhere floating down the Nile and won ' t be able to make it. Officer Barry Mulhern will not be present this year because he has been assigned to keep the order at S.A.C. Park. With the big weekend coming up. Registrar of Motor Vehicles Richard Williams, will be unable to leave his post. Inspector Lucille St. Germain is busy tracking down the fast Linda Austin Healy. And who goes by but Dennis Luksha on his rusty-errrr-trusty-old bike. Doris Almstrom and Ellen St. George write to tell us that they will not be able to attend since they are now detectives on an important case for the C.I.A. You can tell from the letterhead that business is booming at the Szufat, Potvin, and Tobin auto-body shop. The boys must really be working diligently. A memo incorporated in the reply tells us that Ray Nowak ' s car is being fixed by Judy LaVigne, an expert on the streamlined look. Business is too stiff at the mortuary for Richard Doud and Dana Dugan to leave for any amount of time. The famed author, Tom Zickell is in the midst of completing his autobiography, My Loves , and he can ' t tear himself away for a minute. Morticia Martha Adams, star of the Addams family and Uncle Nils Ebbeson Fester are too busy with their new careers to come. Also on the show business scene, it is opening night at the opera. John Shusta and Sandra Despres will be the leading actor and actress in the cast and Oren Merrill will be seen as the featured tenor. Sandy Flagg, Adrienne Levesque, and Bill Lesperance will be the star ballerinas. Heading the backstage crew will be Robert Wood, the reknowned curtain operator. Making their debut as trapeze artists in the circus are Mike Fanning and Andrea Herrmann. Linda Whitcomb will also be on the scene as a fortune teller trying to make contact through the lens of her crystal ball. In the field of sports, we hear that Ra Esonis is busy chalking the lines for the Giants ' big game tomorrow. Among the players are Duncan Gillies at tackle and Ronnie George at right guard. Vincent Cerrato, Paul Graboski, and Kenny Arslen are busy defending Marie Phelps on a parking ticket charge. Among the members of the jury are Jean Johnson and Barbara Gustafson. Among the more famous members of the class, who because of the pressure of business will not be able to attend, are Joe Bosowski, the inventor of the Easily Found golf ball, Barry Lorge, president of the Beef Trust, the guy that will go whole hog for anything, and Linda Smedberg, the world famous financier. Among others who will not attend are artist Karol Robinson, hairdresser— Janice Almstrom, and taxi cab driver Richard Alexandrowicz, all from Greenwich Village. These days, unemployment is high and Susan Berry ' s employment agency is busy trying to find jobs for unemployed actresses Linda Marsh and Paula Fassett. Gary Perkins is having a hard time finding work as a street painter because he ' s painted all of the streets already. On the other hand, there is nothing slow about Ed Cairns, the playboy. Recently his penthouse was saved from fire by the valiant efforts of firemen Mark Whitney and John Brewer. They are standing by in case it flares up again. Business is also great for Dave Bill Korb, a barber for the last of the Barbarions. Diane Sepavich and Karen White, house mothers at Tech, will also be unable to make it. So far, we haven ' t heard from Bobby Johnson, who is probably sleeping. Dave Hollis, alias The Pawnbroker , operator of Hauga ' s Hawk Shop, will not be present due to a busy schedule. Also in the same straits are Larry Durham and his full staff of Dimpy ' s Ice Cream Shop: Waitresses Carol Noyes, Jean LaComfora and Della Laurin head this cool but efficient staff, while Diane Leslie, Jackie Hooper and Susan Welch are experts at cooking up Welch Rabbit. Mike Walsh, dedicated assistant produce manager at landoli ' s, won ' t be able to tear himself away long enough to attend. Hen-pecked David Eagan declines the invitation since his wife won ' t allow it. They have a meeting that night with their marriage counselor, Pat Ediiberti. Dress- maker Betsy Caron also declines, along with her models, Donna Castagnetti and Judy McCarthy. Marcia Bullens can ' t come because she ' s the head monkey trainor for a well known circus. Well, it looks like we will be the only ones who can go to the reunion. It doesn ' t matter, though. We ' ll have this shootin ' match anyway, by George.

Most of the Lion ' s victories were by decisive scores, while only two goals separated them from an undefeated season. Kennedy was the season ' s high scorer with 13 goals. Senior Tom Zickell and Louie Pepi chipped in with 8 goals each. Four others Seniors, Guy Metcalf, Bob Johnson, Paul Gremo, and John Fortin, were star de- fensemen for the 1965 booters. Although the Lions had many satisfying victories, the high point of the year was an exciting 3-2 upset win over previously undefeated Charlton. The loss of many Seniors will certainly hurt the Lion booters, but the team, led by Charlie Allen and Dwight Howe, hopes to do well again in 1966. 70 Pre-game strategy Down Boy Whoa there! Take That!

The 1965 Field Hockey team, Co-captained by Judy LaVigne and Ellen St. George, and coached by Miss Richard, was a hard-working, spirited, and exper- ienced squad. After battling to ties with Tahanto, Uxbridge, Millbury, Grafton, and Algonquin in the first five games, the team clobbered Clinton 5-0 for its first win. After tying Millbury and Algonquin again, the Lionesses defeated Grafton; in the last game of the campaign they were edged by Uxbridge, 0-1. The 1965 record of two wins, 1 loss, and seven ties reflects one of the strongest field hockey seasons in the history of West Boylston High School. 72 Where the action is.

Although the season began in style with the Lions crushing Algonquin twice and Clinton once, the team, capably coached by Mr. Richard O ' Connor, was plagued with bad luck. In spite of their six losses, the harriers finished third in league competition. West Boylston had fine runners in Peter Karras, Walter Klar, John Brustlin, Dana Strong, and Captain Richie Castonguay; the team lacked suf- ficient depth, however, to win many meets. Westboro ' s Randy Charlton set a new course record with 14:36; in the same race, Dick Castonguay broke the school record with 14:37.8. With only one de- parture via graduation, the harriers should have a good campaign in 1966. Looking over the score sheet Cheerleaders Kneeling: Pro metheus. Standing: N. Pofvin, N. Veshi, S.

With the fine school spirit of the student body and the successful year of the varsity basketball team, the cheerlead- ers were able to have a great year. The squad was prive- leged to cheer the Lions to victory in the Clark Tournament, and was thus able to go on to cheer at the Boston Garden when West Boylston met Manchester High School in the State Small Schools Championship. The squad wants to take this opportunity to thank our advisor. Miss Johnson for her patience and encouragement over the past year. Victory! Basketball |r J j I KL f (S ' Kneeling: R. Fisk, G.

The 1966 varsity basketball team, captained by Junior Paul Shepard, enjoyed a fine season, compiling a record of 14-7. The Lions started very fast, edging greatly improved Tahanto Regional (62-59) in the year ' s opener. West Boylston went on to win eight out of its first nine games, including topping such formid- able opponents as Oxford (55-54) and Bartlett (58-43)— both District 3 Tourney entries— and losing only to powerful St. Bernard ' s of Fitchburg (92-82). Then the Lion ' s went into a midseason slump which was to plague them throughout the season, until they snapped out of it brilliantly in the Clark Tournament. The regular season record wound up at 11-7, and the Lions finished second in the Southern Worces- ter County Blackstone Valley League. The highlight of the season was the successful defense of the Clark Tourney Small Schools crown. West Boylston was a tournament underdog, seeded behind strong Tahanto, Narragansett, North Brook- field, and Warren quintets. West Boylston played its best ball of the season at Clark, though; they crushed Nipmuc (73-49), outlasted Narragansett (67-60) and came from behind to upset Warren in an exciting finale, 72-61 . Scoring honors for the season went to rugged Junior Paul Shepard, who averaged 20.3 points a game. Sophomore Jud Hunt shared rebounding honors with Shepard and Junior Phil Lagerstrom. Junior Rick Hollis and Sophomores Reggie Fisk and Moose Fisher were great ball-handlers and shooters all season. Glenn Hermes, John Geier, Bobby Johnson, Gary Shannon, Rick Mclivain, and Dave Bjorklund gave WB a fine bench. 76 Shepard controls the rebound. Lots of action under the boards Junior Varsity Basketball J 1966 was not a very successful year for the JV basketball team in terms of victories. It was a most successful year in terms of the real purpose of JV basketball, however— player development. Two sophomores, Jud Hunt and Rick AAcllvain started the season with the JV ' s and moved up to the var- sity in mid-season. This left Coach Ekblom with three sophs and eight freshmen with whom to work. Al- though they were outsized by near- ly every opponent, the JV ' s showed the hustle, determination, and learn- ing of the fundamentals that are so important in building future varsity squads. With the eight improving fresh- men back, the JV ' s can look for- ward to more wins next year. Kneeling: E. Connor, K. O ' Neil (Manager); C. Bond (Manager). Standing: Mr. Ekblom (Coach), A.

The 1966 girls ' varsity basketball team, coached by Miss Richard and co-captained by Seniors Diane Sepavich and Karol Robinson, had a very successful year. Although practice was started late, the Lionesses were ready at the season ' s opening and scored victories in the first two games. Hard work and a super- lative team effort paid off throughout the year, and the team finishd with a 7-6 slate. Linda Austin was high scorer with 121 points. Hold on tight!

While compiling only a 4-8 record the team showed lots of promise and with only two starters— Kathy Atchue and Sandra Daszuta— not returning, 1966 should be a banner year for the Lioness ' soft- ball team. The team wishes to thank their coach, Miss Richard, for her fine support in the past year. Equipment check Track VARSITY TRACK TEAM: Kneeling; W. Rotfl, P. Hollis, M. Smith, R. Benedict, B.

The team had been winless in its first two seasons, but with the advent of AAr. Richard O ' Connor as the new coach, the picture brightened. The Lions crushed Tahanto in their opener, but then the com- petition became stronger. They later defeated Grafton, AAillbury, and Clinton, but lost to Uxbridge, Algonquin, and Burncoat. The high point of the season was a big upset over Assumption Prep. The team was led in scoring by Pete Hollis (AAVP) in the sprints and high jump, Guy Metcalf in the sprints and broad jump, and Bruce Little in the half-mile and discus. Hollis, Metcalf, and Joel Pasquale scored points in the District Three meet at St. John ' s High School. Up and . . . over? Ready for lift off. Our Guy in orbit.

The Lions, under the firm hand of Coach Ekblom and co-captains Jim Senior and Dave Lindberg, compiled a fine 11-3 record. The team annexed the Southern Worcester County League championship with a 9-2 league mark, including two victories over archrival Millbury. The squad was invited to play in the District Three tournament, and drew Milford High as its rival. In an exciting game that could easily have gone either way, the Lions lost to Milford, eventual runner-up in the Massachusetts State championship. Lindberg and Bob Roselund sparked the squad as two of the area ' s most feared hurlers. Jim Senior and Bernie Lorge, along with Juniors Bob Johnson and Tom Zickell, and Freshman standout Any Kelly led the Lions ' offense. Dwight Howe and Phil Lagerstrom, both Sophomores, played fine defensive baseball. The 1965 Lions will long be remembered as the club that put West Boylston conclusively on the school- boy baseball map. Coach Ekblom and Jim Senior look the opposition over.

Szufat, R. Beachy. 1965 was a building year for the tennis team, which featured eight underclassmen. Nevertheless, the squad compiled a respectable 4-6 record, and narrowly missed vJinning four more matches. Glenn Hermes, a sophomore, was the season ' s star; he won nine of ten singles matches, losing only to the Fitchburg net star. More important for the netsters, though, was the fact that Coach Pendleton gave every member of the team a chance to play. With the experience they gained, the eight returning members of the tennis team should make 1966 a memorable tennis year at WBHS. Sports Candids 90 Let ' s twist again. Here comes Judy.

Our goal was to publish the biggest and best yearbook in the history of West Bolys- ton High School, and we feel that we have succeeded. This book is a more com- plete history of both the Senior Class and the entire school than any of its pre- decessors have been. We are especially proud of the activities and organiza- tions sections of the 1966 Lion ' s Roar; these revised and expanded sections chronicle most of the important events of the school year and spotlight both Seniors and underclassmen. This yearbook represents numerous hours of hard work by many persons. The greatest responsibility, of course, fell to the three editors, Barry Lorge, Lin- da Marsh, and Virginia Grimes, and to that tireless advisor, Mr. Harold M. Lane, Jr. These people could do nothing, however, without the services of Mercer Studios and the Taylor Publishing Company (and their most helpful representa- tive for our area, Mr. William Rowan). And there was, of course, the entire yearbook staff, with each individual and committee performing his own task so well. We must especially remember the business staff, for without them we could do nothing. Raymond Esonis and Susan Berry were in charge of raising the great amount of money needed to finance our operation. And we owe a. special vote of thanks to the two heroines of this year ' s business staff, those super-saleswomen (Bless them!), Carol Noyes and Janet Soule. To all those involved in making the 1966 Lion ' s Roar the success that it is, then, we say thank you for a job well done. The entire staff can take pride in knowing that they have indeed accomplished their task— the production of the biggest and best yearbook ever at WBHS. 94 Editors: Photography Editor: Art Staff: Senior Writeups: Activities Committee: Organizations Committee: Underclassmen Committee: Class History Committee: Superlatives Committee: Barry Lorge Linda Marsh Virginia Grimes Ellen St. George Judy LaVigne (Chairman) Betsy Caron Karol Robinson Elizabeth Fisk (Chairman) Patricia Edilberti Barbara Gustafson David Longone Carol Osterberg Marie Phelps Linda Whitcomb (Chairman) Marcia Bullens William Tobin Judy McCarthy, (Chairman) Edward Cairns Ellenore Ernst Duncan Gillies (Chairman) Robert Johnson Donna Castagnetti Andrea Herrmann Robert Wood (Chairman) Carol Noyes Della Laurin (Chairman) Paul Gremo CPass Will Committee: Class Prophecy Committee: Linda Smedberg Luke Szufat Guy Metcalf Gary Perkins John ShUsta Typists: Jean Johnson Marcia Bullfens Jacqueline Hopper Jean LaComfora Adrienne Levesque Merilyn Hunter Charlene Lowell Business Managers: Sales Directors: Sports Editors: Kevin Kennedy (Chairman) Diane Sepavich Paula Fassett Louis Pepi (Chairman) Bonnie Erickson John Fortin Dana Dugan Sandra Flagg Lucille St. Germaine Donald Harding Janet Soule Joyce Tipton Susan Berry Raymond Esonis Janet Soule Carol Noyes Linda Austin Richard Castonguay Carol Noyes and Janet Soule— heroines of the business staff.

Like other school organizations it elects its own officers; at the first meeting of this school year the Council elected Guy Metcalf (President), Kevin Kennedy (Vice President), Janet Nolan (Secretary), and Dan- iel Rosis (Treasurer). The aim of the Council is to promote loy- alty, cooperation, and good fellowship among the pupils. As part of the year ' s program the Council sponsored two dances, one at the beginning of the year and another at the end. To help build school spirit, the Council purchased a Lion ' s suit for use in all school social and athletic activities. Every year the Council sponsors two schol- arships for graduating Seniors. This year the group held a candy sale to raise the needed funds. The Faculty Advisor, Mrs. Koliss, helped to make 1966 another suc- cessful year for the organization. The Student Council wishes all members of the Class of 1966 the best of luck in the future. 96 Members investigate a fund-raising project. President Guy Metcalf looks over the Council ' s lion. National Honor Society President and Advisor discuss Society business. Because many school administrators felt that there was an unjustifiable de-emphasis of scholastic or academic interest in sec- ondary education in the year 1900, they set up local honor societies to pay tribute to those students who excelled in the field of scholarship. Later, in 1921, Mr. Edward Ry- nearson of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, drafted a constitution for a National Honor Society. In West Boylston, as in other chapters throughout the country, students are elected on the basis of character, scholarship, lead- ership, and service. Under the supervision of Mr. Cecchini, formal installation of new members takes place at annual induction ceremonies held in early spring. Officers in the Society this year include: Richard Castonguay (President), Barry Lorge (Vice President), Kevin Kennedy (Treasur- er), and John Fortin (Secretary). Other mem- bers of the society are Elizabeth Fisk, Paula Fassett, and Linda Marsh. R. Castonguay (President), J. Fortin, R. Wood, K. Kennedy, L. Marsh, B. Lorge, Mr. Cecchini (Advisor), P.

Silvester, S. Williams, J. Tyler. This year the Dramatics Club, better known as the Promethians, was under the direction of Mr. John Gaumond for the last time. It was a fitting close to his leadership since this year the club was larger, and exhibited more talent than ever before. Many freshmen and sophomores showed an interest and a re- markable amount of talent. Upperclassmen made up the core of the club. Meetings were held every week and consisted of displays of talent from the members. Dramatic mono- logues, soliloquies and poems were acted out by all the Promethians. As an exhibition of the talent of the group, the play More Than Meets the Eye by Fred Carmichael was presented on April 1 for the public. Members of the cast worked hard learning their parts and others in the club participated on the necessary committees. It was a thrilling experience and the play was ac- claimed as one of the funniest yet put on at the school. On this night the Promethians achieved their ob- jectives of putting on a play that the public would enjoy and remember as a true display of talent. 98 A little break between scenes. look!

George, D. Longone, O. Merrill, Mr. Gaumond (Advisor) This year the Senior Class presented Bull in a China Shop by C. B. Gilford on November 18 and 19. The play con- cerned six old ladies whose one con- cern was to lure the intelligent detec- tive across the street into the house. The detective did not cooperate and forced two murders to be committed. A sexy reporter added romantic interest and a source of trouble to the ladies. Finally the intelligent detective caught on and the evil-doer was brought to justice. The play was enjoyable without being the slapstick it has been in previous years. This required more talent and re- sulted in the best senior play yet. As important as the actors who ap- peared on stage were those workers behind stage. Especially important in delegating work and in carrying out the Director ' s orders were Adrienne Le- vesque and Karen White. The success of the play yvas due to efforts by truly in- terested people. Those who chose to devote their time and energy to the senior play found it rewarding and wish to thank Mr. Gaumond for his guidance and time. Production First Row; B. Erickson, K. Robinson, L.

The Cerc e Francais started the year off on a musical note. Our first program consisted of instrumental and vocal selections, with Elizabeth Fisk playing an unexpected solo (the Surprise Symphony, perhaps? ). Our Christmas gathering consisted of a skit which was aided nobly by a jolly Pere Noel who was almost too wide for the chimney. A fine representation of faculty members was on hand, and as usual, about 70% of the refreshments disappeared when they reached that table. In March, three teenagers from France— students at Assumption Prep— visited WBHS and lectured on modern France. Our thanks to Denise Little for sparking the meeting and keeping inter-school relations at a high level. Our annual trip to Boston was a success, and we all enjoyed it. Holy Hamburg! We almost forgot to thank Le Boeuf, our President; and we hope he didn ' t mind com- ing to all those meetings! A few mercis are also in order for those mademoiselles au 311, Miss Cobb and Miss Scopelitti, for their invaluable assistance. Library Club Seating: J. OrcianI, S. Sears, N. Lamothe, M. Adams, L.

The library Club is a service organization which exists to help the student make better use of his library. At the same time it provides its members with a better understanding of their school library, how it runs, and first glimpse of all new material as well as basic information invaluable in their use of public and later, college libraries. The club is composed of volunteer girls who work two hours per week at various duties such as shelv- ing, repairing, lettering and covering books, maintaining the charge desk and display case. Members are recruited in the Spring and given orientation courses in the early Fall. The 1965-66 Season included meetings with neighboring clubs, a book display contest, and annual awards. Officers were Linda Marsh, Pres.; Cindy James, Vice-Pres.; and Martha Adams, Bulletin Board Chair- man. The members of the Library Club would like to thank Mrs. Sullivan for all the time she has devoted to teaching us the Library skills; and for her guidance throughout the year.

Schools all over the nation have started clubs to cultivate more interest in this pro- fession. The Future Teachers of America Club of our school meets once a month and provides a program including various sub- jects. These meetings provide an opportunity for all interested in the teaching profes- sion to get together and express their opin- ions on topics ranging from teenage drink- ing to courses offered by different colleges. One of the meetings thij year consisted of a panel discussion on teenage drinking, driv- ing, smoking and dating. The club was offered an excellent oppor- tunity to observe the teacher-parent confer- ences this year when they acted as guides for Parents Night. The FTA is currently mak- ing plans to visit Worcester State College and other schools to explore the teaching profession. iss Fitzgerald (Advisor); V. Grimes, R. Holmes, M. White, K. O ' Connor, K.

' Webo Staff The purpose of the school newspaper, the Webo , is to serve as a news media so that student events and interests can be publicized not only for the school, but also for the community. As editor, Robert Wood has added two im- provements to the paper this year. Now the Webo is printed professionally at Saltus Press; it also contains advertisements from local merchants. Striving to improve the paper, staff mem- bers have attended two conferences on jour- nalism sponsored by the Worcester Tele- gram and Evening Gazette. At these work- shops, held in the fall and the spring, We- bo reporters have met with representa tives from other school newspapers and have com pared newspapers. As associate editor, Jane Holmberg has covered feature articles for the paper. Deb- orah Goodness writes the fashion column while Reggie Fisk covers the sports events. Other news reporters are: Heather Graham, Jane Morris, Marie Giobellina, Beverly George, Nancy Ela, Joan Rymaszewska, Adri- enne Butler, Timothy Maki, Christine Wilson, Marcia McKeogh, Jo-Anne Camarra, and Lynne Smith.

Quist, T. Hughes, W. Kendall, L. Silvester, C. Campbell, R. Nowak, G. Erickson, G. Hermes, M. Whitney, R. Sepavich. The band has progressed noteably this year. We started to have rehearsals twice a week for the regular band and once a week for the dance band. The result was a much improved band sound, despite the increase in gray hair on our distinguished conductor ' s head. For the Spring Concert, which was held in March, the band performed such outstanding numbers as South Pacific, S ' Cool Room Blooz, Latina, and others. The dance band belted forth with The Untoucha- bles, Wives and Lovers, The Creeper, and Sure Thing, among others. The audience was large and recep- tive. And rumor has it that the melody actually creeped through now and then and could be recognized. Con- gratulations are certainly due to the whole band for a fine program. Holy Earache! We almost forgot to thank our leader, Mr. Herbert G. Maynard, for all the time and effort he put forth in our behalf. 104 The big horn at WBHS. Let ' s try that again ' Chorus [J ■■ 32 ■ ' Seated: D.

Both the chorus and the dance band had very successful years under the su- pervision of Mr. Herbert G. Maynard this year. The chorus presented a fine assembly at Christmas which featured many songs of the season. Creative chor- eography by the majorettes, a duet by Karen Girouard and Denise Little, ac- cordion accompaniment and solos by Duncan Gillies and Richard Alexandrowicz, and songs by both the regular chorus and the light chorus highlighted this pro- gram. Later in the year, the chorus again performed admirably at the Spring Concert. Officers this year were Jackie Hopper (President), Marcia Bullens (Vice President), Paula Alexandrowicz (treasurer), and Dennis Deyo and Adrienne Levesque (Music Managers). Denise Little and Dennis Deyo were both selected for the Central District Chorus. The dance band one of the more popular and talented groups at WBHS, also had a fine year. They received wide and well-deserved praise for their fine per- formance at the Spring Concert. Dance Band Seated: P. Karras, R. George, R. Fisk, G. Hermes, D. DiPasquale, R. Sepavich, T. Maki, C.

Perkins There are many values derived from gymnastic exercise. First, it specifically helps to develop strength and power in that part of the body which has been so neglected in American youth— the upper arms and shoulders. Second, it contributes to the development of agility, flexibility, coordination, and balance. Third, it improves posture and personal appearance. Gymnastics also develops important mental qualities such as alertness, daring, and precision. Essential character traits of self-confidence, perserverance, and self-discipline are also derived. Furthermore, the sport offers a great deal of variety, challenge, and enjoyment. This was the sixth year that the West Boylston Gymnastic Exhibition Team has presented its annual show. 1966 marked the entry of the first co-educational team in the school ' s history. Nine girls were chosen for the team and were captained by Ellen St. George and coached by Miss Richard. The eighteen boys on the team were co-captained by Paul Gremo and Oren Merrill and coached by Mr. Barron. The boys ' team this year engaged for the first time in interscholastic gymnastic competition. It is the hope of the coaches that by expanding the activity of the gym team, more students will be en- couraged to participate and to increase their physical and mental well-being.

The thrill and excitement of skiing can be enjoyed by everyone from the novice to the expert. Under the guidance of Mr. Maynard many very successful excursions have been made to Mount Wachu- sett. The only mishaps were two minor injuries and a broken ski. Bus transportation was provided to get the club members to the mountain after school. The skiing was even better on the weekdays than the week- ends because not as many people were using the lifts. After a fast run of frozen granular or powder the skiers could enjoy the warm friendly atmosphere of the lodge. And so the senior officers, Judy La Vigne, Linda Smedberg and David Longone, say; there is nothing which can compare to the brisk air and congenial atmosphere found on the ski slopes. Up we go.

All male athletes who have earned a letter in any one of the Varsity sports; Soccer, Cross-Country, Basketball, Baseball, Track, or Tennis, are eligi- ble for membership in the club. The duties of the members are to serve as ushers at basketball games and to assist, in any way possi- ble, in making all athletic events a success. To point out superior individual achievement in each sport the club has established the Most Valuable Player Award. Trophies are awarded annually to the outstand- ing athlete chosen by the coaches.

This year the camera club was reorganized at WBHS after several years of inactivity. The new advisor for this organization is that shrewd photographer-politician, Mr. E. J. Bouvier. He served as the clearing agent for all club purchases and photographer without parallel. Although we had few formal meetings, the camera club was very active. We focused our attention on the development of the yearbook whenever our services were desired; th camera club became the solution of many of the yearbook ' s problems. The camera club had several history making personalities in 1966. Would you believe that Gooch Longone produced 57 international prize-winning negatives? Would you believe 25 national-winners? Two recog- nizable negatives? In keeping with the national photographic code, we declared Wednesday as Prints Day. The camera club enjoyed rapid growth in its membership this year, and we hope to continue this trend. We welcome any new member who has a negative attitude. 10 The darkroom girls.

Boys, eligible to be members of the Graphic Arts Club, are students taking the full time Graphic Arts course (5 days per week) or those in their second year of Part-time Graphic Arts (2 days per week ). There are no set times for meetings of the club, as such, nor are there elected officers, but items of interest in the Printing field are discussed and methods of modern production are studied for possi- ble application to our Graphic Arts activities in our work shop. Printing projects are undertaken for various departments of the school. School Department, and local community organizations. From these a small profit is made, after paying for the stock and other necessary materials. This profit is expended on equipment for use in our Graphic Arts Department and for the entire school. Outstanding examples of these are: A Photo-Copy machine, and Overhead Projector, as well as special display type, extra composing sticks etc. The practical experience obtained in our Graphic Arts Club, has been of special benefit to many boys who are now making their living in some phase of the Graphic Arts field. We are proud of the fact that some thirty-five boys, over the last five or six years, give the Graphic Arts Club credit for helping them decide on their life ' s vocation.

Specifically we maintain and operate the school ' s movie and filmstrip projectors, tape recorders, and phonographs. Our other duties include stage work for assemblies, plays, and other presentations. The beamin ' sound of W.B.R.S. radio, 1220 on your dial was brought to every dance by Ronnie George, and upon special occasions by the one and only AAr. Lane.

Another common occurrence this year was the underclassmen ' s presentation to study hall teachers ot A.V. passes signed R.G. The annual club field trip this year was to WBZ Radio in Boston. The club wishes to thank AAr. AAcGrail, the new faculty advisor, for his patience and help in supervising all A.V. activities this year. Under his guidance the Audio-Visual Club promises to continue its excellent serv- ice in the future. 1 12 W-h-a-t??? Bringing you the swingin ' sound. Government Club Seated: M. Adams, S. Berry, P.

The government club is one of the most active organizations at WBHS. Its function is to help teach its members the workings of our political system, particularly at the state and local level. The club partici- pates in Government Program, a well-conducted mock state legislature. Our club prepared two model bills for legislation, attended Committee hearings and debated the bills along with those of other clubs on the floor of the mock General Court. We were successful in gaining enactment of our two controversial bills, one to establish a state right to work law under section 14 (b) of the Federal Taft-Hartley Act and the other to establish compulsory sex education in Massachusetts schools. The club this year also participated in a student exchange program between urban and suburban schools so as to study the local government of differerrt types of communities. The club is studying the possibility of making several other trips and joining other programs in its at- tempt to widen its range of activity. We would like to thank Mr. Gaumond for his patience and assistance in all our endeavors. The Public Health Committee meets at the Court House. Leonard Silvester defends the right to work.

The Class of ' 67 has taken dynannic strides to- ward filling its soon-to-be-inherited senior boots. Our kick-off candy sale was a resounding suc- cess and funds derived from continuous sell- outs at basketball games have provided plenty of work for our most able treasurer. Much mon- ey was needed, for the Junior Class undertook an energetic prom plan; the title was Once Upon a Time, and it involved a storybook theme. Holding dances and decorating for Class Day were other activities successfully carried out this year. Extracurricular activities were crammed with Juniors. The Hall of Fame includes: Pad Shep- ard, Tav Hollis, Phil Langerstrom, Glenn Hermes, Rick Geier, and Dave Bjorklund, basket- ball; Charlie Allen and Dwight Howe, soccer; Glenn Hermes, tennis; Pete Karras and Walter Klar, track; Kathy O ' Connor, Pattie Connor, field hockey; Kerry Glynn and Susan Rickley, cheer- leaders.

The Sophomore year is now behind us, and the Class of 1968 is looking toward big things in the future. This year we studied hard, played well, and just hoped for the best. The class of- ficers who guided the destinies of 1966 ' s sopho- mores were: Reggie Fisk, President; Cheryl Mer- ritt, Vice President; Marlene White, Secretary, and Francis St. Andre and Nancy Ela, Treasurers. On the athletic field, our class was well rep- resented by the following lettermen: Reg Fisk, tennis; Joel Pasquale John Brustlin, and Dana Strong, cross country,- Andy Kelly, baseball; and Jud Ffunt, Les Fisher, and Reg Fisk, basketball. Although our activities were limited, we did make many plans for the future which we hope to realize when the opportunity presents itself. A word of thanks is certainly due to our Ad- visors who have helped us adjust to school life and to prepare for our final two years of high school. Those happy lunch hours.

Early in the school year, elections were held for fresh- man class officers. The following were elected to lead the class during the 1965-66 school year: President: Timothy Maki; Vice President: Bruce Rankins; Secretary: Cathy Stiles; Treasurer: Judy Snow, and Student Coun- cil Representatives: Christine Wilson and Heather Gra- ham. Although the majority of the officers were inexpe- rienced, they quickly became accustomed to their new positions with the help of Class Advisors Miss Cogs- well, Miss Bratiotis, Mr. Wills, and Mr. Pendleton. On Friday, November 12, 1965, the first Freshman dance was held, featuring the singing group Satan ' s Saints. The affair was considered a great success. During the week of February 14-18, 1966, dues were collected in the homerooms by the Treasurer. In order to add to our treasury, plans are now being made to hold a fund-raising campaign during the early months of the 1966-67 school year.

ADVISOR ' S PAGE The 1966 Lion ' s Roar is the product of many hours of hard work by a great many people whose only reward is to see their endeavors in print. I want to take this opportunity to express my thank you to all of those who helped assemble this year ' s book by paying tribute, in this limited space, to only a few by name. First and foremost, there are the Editors: Barry Lorge, Linda Marsh, and Virginia Grimes. This is really their book, the product of a labor of love and sacrifice. To them, their class and school owe much; and all that this book is and hopes to be is due directly to their work. A yearbook is hot possible without financial backing and this year ' s book, being the biggest in West Boylston history, required the biggest budget. Our Business Managers, Susan Berry and Raymond Esonis did their task well. And special praise should be heaped on two members of the Class of ' 66 — Janet Soule and Carol Noyes — who personally raised over $800 for this book for no other reason than that they believed in their cause. To the advertisers we can only say thanks for making this possible at all. A good yearbook requires great photography and to our official photographer, Mercer Studios, we say a job well done . And to the Camera Club and Mr. Edward Bouvier a deep bow of appreciation. As always, Mr. Bill Rowan of Taylor Publishing Co. was a great help to us in planning and moulding this book. To the teachers, whose classes we seemed to be constantly interrupting, we offer our sincere appreciation; to the long-suffering administration we offer thanks for giving us the freedom to develop our own ideas. There is always the danger of missing someone important when you try to acknowledge individuals who aided in a project as large as this. I am sure that I am guilty of this. But I hope that those I didn ' t mention — the individual staff members, the typists, school personnel, etc. — will know the great debt of gratitude I owe to them. Harold M. Lane, Jr. Advisor.
