West High School - Westerdays Yearbook (Pawtucket, RI)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1949 volume:

WESTE RDAYS 1949 Published by the Senior Class of WEST Senior High School Pawtucket, Rhode Island Dedication Miss Anna J. Garland, head of the mathematics department at West, is known and liked by both students and teachers. Miss Garland has been teaching algebra and geometry at West since the school opened. She graduated from R. I. C. E. and received degrees from Brown University and Harvard. Being admired and respected by all her pupils, she was unanimously selected for the ’49 Class Book dedication. 3 Ruth Hessenthaler ’49 Dear Class of Forty-Nine: Three years ago when you entered West Senior High School you probably thought June 16, 1949, was a long way ahead. Graduation on that date was the immedi- ate goal toward which you were aiming, but it seemed far distant. At this time it is very close and that High School Diploma is in sight. The High School Education, however, is only the first step in your career. You have other goals in sight and will move on. Four years at college with the “sheep- skin” at the end of the course is the aim of many. And to most of this group it must be a college which gives specialized training which will prepare them for the profession of their choice. Those who wish to become teachers of academic subjects will head for a teachers’ college; if they wish to teach home economics or art they will choose colleges offering those courses; if some wish to teach public school music they will train in a conservatory of music; schools of physical education will attract some prospective teachers; and business colleges will attract others. But the major- ity of those planning for college do not plan to become teachers. Schools of medi- cine, dentistry and engineering will attract many. Today there seems to be a school which will train a student for almost any career. Many of you for various reasons will not continue school but will immediately take up some line of work. You will find your high school diploma of great assis- tance in procuring a job, but it will not help you hold it. What you are sup- posed to have learned during your three years at West will help you at this point. Have you faithfully prepared your lessons from day to day? Have you participated in extra curricular activities? Have you helped your school and your classmates whenever possible? If so, you have been helping yourselves to grow mentally and physically into the right kind of citizens who will make good on the job. Your success in life is assured provided you do not let down in effort. Education on the job is possible and then there are eve- ning schools. One should see to it that he never stops growing in skill and experi- ence. He should participate in the affairs of his church and his community and help himself by helping others. The culti- vation of a hobby will not only provide an interest but will help one’s growth. Al- ways keep in mind that work makes for growth and contentment, and brings many blessings which money cannot buy. Wherever you are and whatever station in life you may hold, always keep in mind that it pays to cooperate, to be dependable and honest, and to earn the reputation for having an excellent character. These quali- ties will attract the right kind of friends and good friends will make your life complete. Your Principal, Chester M. Dascombe 4 i? Mu i e.

She is not only proficient in dramatics and scholarship but she excels in sports. Ruth brought honor to our school when she won the state badminton tournament. A very popular and athletic fellow is our Class Presi- dent, Frank Palana. Together with his brother, he has the distinction of being one of the best athletics in the school. We are sure that his sunny-disposition will bring him success wherever he goes. V SECRETARY Our Secretary, Dorothy Barnes! A winning smile and a sparkling personality have won her a high place in the hearts of her classmates. We know she will go far in the career of her choice. TREASURER Our Treasurer, John Palana, has won many friends during his short stay at West. He will long be remem- bered by his classmates for his athletic ability and his genial smile. May he have every success in his chosen work.

The editorial staff prepared numerous reports; the business staff performed the important task of obtaining advertisements to help defray the expense of the book; the art staff worked on the drawings and the superlative cartoons. How- ever, the work of these staffs could never have been completed without the help of the efficient secretarial staff. The officers of the staff were Alice Cahill, editor-in-chief: Ruth Hessenthaler. and William Garland, associate editors; Donald Wilson, busi- ness manager; Marion Kacharo, executive secre- tary; Ann Wilkinson, art editor. The board worked steadily until the book went to press in May. Much credit for the success of the book goes to Miss Mary McKeough and Mr. Thomas J. Hunt. The class of 1949 wishes to thank them for their able assistance. The members of the Classbook Board hope you will enjoy reading this book as much as we enjoyed preparing it. 66 Alice Cahill, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Bertha Trinquier. Zella Rodrigues.

Honor Society There is an organization at West open to those students who maintain a high scholastic average during their three years of high school. All students who secure the equivalent of an 859£ average are eligible for membership in the Rhode Island Honor Society. Eligibility is based entirely upon scholarship up to the middle of the Senior Year. Membership in this society is an honor which every student who attains it will remember in future years. Every year in the spring, the names of all students who have attained the Honor Society- are posted in the Senior Home Rooms. This year 259£ of the Senior Class at West has been represented. All these pupils have done above average work since their sophomore year. When applying for college it is advantageous for the student to state that he belongs to the Rhode Island Honor Society. Consideration of such candidates for admission may be more favorable. In any case, belonging to the Society is an honor upon which every graduating stu- dent will look back. At a special assembly held every year just for this purpose, the Parent Teachers Associa- tion honors members of the Society by pre- senting each with a pin which is a token of the student’s outstanding scholastic achieve- ment. The students’ parents are invited to the assembly and to the tea wrhich follows. Ruth Hessenthaler FIRST ROW: Loft to Rl ht —Phyllis Block. Joanne Searles. Lois Ward. Raymond Lundgren.

Students are elected each year by their fellow-classmates to serve on the council. The purpose of this group is to promote a co- operative feeling among the students, and to present and solve problems occuring during the school year. Miss Mary J. McKitchen is the faculty ad- visor of the Student Council and the officers for the 1948-49 school year are Raymond Lund- gren. President; Dorothy Barnes. Vice-Presi- dent; Lois Ward, Recording Secretary; Ber- tha Trinquier, Corresponding Secretary; and Joseph Menard, Treasurer. In September the council sponsored a “Get Acquainted Party for Sophs.” In October an in- novation Class Ring Day was sponsored by the council. On this day, the Seniors received their rings at an assembly. An old-fashioned barn dance, Haystack Hoedown” enabled Wester- ners to become farmers and farmerettes. The annual Christmas pageant. Living Carols”, was presented December 19 during the worst blizzard of the entire winter season. The revival of School Colors Day. March 8, found members of the council selling plastic Council bookcovers especially designed in buff and blue and displaying the seal of the school on the front cover and the typical ranger on the re- verse side. One of the highlights of the year is The Honor Society Tea, originated in Rhode Island here at West High. Honors day was oberved on April 26 this year. In May the annual May Frolic rolled around and Westerners saw their favorite girl crowned queen of the May. Parents’ Night opened graduation week fes- tivities. On this night, parents were received by the faculty and were entertained by their sons and daughters. Besides Social events, the Student Council also kept in touch with the less fortunate stu- dents by sending get-well and sympathy cards. Each year the Student Council dedicates some worthwhile project to the school. This year, on June 10, we presented a bas relief of Mr. Dascombe on a very beautiful bronze plaque as a tribute to the first principal of West High School and the ever interested and sincere friend of its Student Council. 69 Dorothy Barnes ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Lillian Hornlg.

The stage is set for the review of the class of ’49’s various productions during its three years with the West Senior High Dramatic Society. Under the direction of Miss Marguerite W. Fox. they have been very prosperous years. As sophomores we presented the hilarious “The Inner Willie.” Willie was constantly pam- pered by his three aunts, but to the rescue came Willie’s “conscience” to pull him through the ordeal. The success of this play was a good start. To the tune of thunder and lightning, we, as juniors, offered the mystery thriller, “The Red Spider.” The overwhelming success of this play was very noticeable from the contin- uance applause of the audience. It is true that our ’47 and ’48 presentations were great; but greatest of them all was our senior production, “A Date with Judy.” We can boast that we were hosts to the largest audience in the history of the West Dramatic S o c i e t v 9 Society. This startling success will be remem- bered by everyone connected with its produc- tion. Three one-act plays were also presented. They were “Sugar and Spice,” “A Pair of Lunatics.” and “The Curtain.” The latter was entered into the Drama Festival at East High School. As usual. West was represented well. From the proceeds of “A Date with Judy.” a check for one hundred dollars was awarded to a worthy and active member, Edward Mc- Caffrey. The officers for the year were: President, Maurice Bernardo; Vice-President. Joseph Men- ard; Secretary. Mary Lou Ellston: Treasurer, Ruth Rutledge; Student Council Representa- tive, Claire Emerson. The curtain has fallen for the last time for us seniors. May the future members of the Dramatic Society carry on and bring hon- or to our school through their efforts. 70 A Ida Rodrigues. ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Norman Sprinthall. Claire Emerson.

Kathleen Carroll, had a very enjoyable and eventful year. The West High Radio Workshop inaugurated the series “Tales From Ivory Towers” by pre- senting the script, “The Woman Who Forgot to Smile.” When the West-Sayles and East Avenue Parent-Teacher Association joined hands to celebrate Founders’ Day, the West High Radio Workshop broadcast an original script presenting the history of these organiza- tions and their founding in 1940. The script was written by Miss Brazeau. The big event of the year was the Boston Radio Field Day. The Club enjoyed the privi- lege of having a special coach on the train. At Boston the members of the Club visited Pro- fessor Samuel Gould at Boston University. Emerson College, and the Leland Powers School. The group also heard the story of Tele- vision by James S. Powers, Educational Di- rector of the Yankee Network. While Visiting W. B. Z., the group saw the production of a telecast with Mr. Ben Hudelson, Educational Director of the station. They also heard a talk by Henry Lundquist, Production Director of W. C. O. P. As usual the group enjoyed every minute of the day. The Club was the first to have any social event this year. The traditional Roller-Ska- ting Party was held with doopizes and every- thing! Naturally, it was a huge success and everyone had fun. The highlight of the year was the W. F. C. I. Broadcasting Award presented to the out- standing student broadcaster, on Class Day. The Club is looking forward to next Sep- tember, when it is anticipated that our own F. M. educational Radio Station will be in operation. This will permit a choice of hour, not only for in school listening, but also for adult education and general Community in- terest program in late afternoon and evening.

Although there was a rise in the cost of newspaper, the Westerner was still able to remain at the same price. The Westerner has again set the pace for Rhode Island’s high school newspapers by the addition of many articles, such as: Willy’s Chase”, The Week’s Question”, and The Poet’s Corner.” One of the most outstanding of the new arti- cles in The Westerner was Letters to the Edi- tor”, which comprised letters written by the student body. This new feature has helped The Westerner staff to know what the students wanted. Except for the April Fool issue. The Wester- ner has followed the policy of “Get the news but get it right.” Along with the conventional trips to our lo- cal newspapers and attending the Rhode Island Scholastic Press Association Conference, The Westerner staff held two very successful dances, one of which was a combined victory and wel- come home dance for West’s R. I. Basketball Champs of ’49.” Governing The Westerner during the 1948-’49 school year were: Mr. Michael J. McLaughlin, advisor: Phillip Andersen and Kathleen Carroll, editors-in-chief; Patricia Oats and Lillian Tex- eira, Assistant Editors; Martin Hokenson and Wiliam Nunez, Sports editors; Norma Salvati and Ann Pierce. Advertising managers; Sally Goldstein and Margaret Jameison, business managers; Chace Loomis and James Holleran, Feature editors; Norma Everly and Leonora Coelho, Circulation managers; Eileen Cote and Dorothea Savviddes, Copy readers. Reporters were: Donna Burrows, William Healy, Wiliam Dooley, Frances Fauteux, Glo- ria Luchesi, Barbara Pewsey, Irene Quinn, Barbara Sosville, Barbara Thompson, and Francis McSwiggan. We of the class of ’49 wish to congratulate the staff chosen for 1949-’50. and we know that they will be a credit to The Westerner. We also wish to thank all of the teachers and students who have given their loyal support to The Westerner. 72 Phillip Andersen, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Ann Pritchard. Patricia Oates.

To start off with a bang, the club, in collaboration with the French Club, held the Turkey Trot , a dance with a new twist. Later in the year again with the French Club, the Society presented a lively Minstrel Show where fun was king. Besides its various social activities the club naturally held debates. The first was a very heated discussion on the timely question: Re- solve, That Communism Should Be Made Ille- egal in the United States. The Juniors de- fended the question while the Seniors at- tacked it. However, the Seniors emerged triumphant. S o c i e t Armed with facts and figures, the Soph- omores assailed the Juniors in March. The in- teresting topic was: Resolved, That the United States Adopt a Nation-Wide Health Insurance Plan. The Sophomores, who ably attacked the question, won. During March the Seniors were fortunate to have the opportunity to participate in the Model Congress at Kingston. They also had a member of the club entered in the speech contest. The trip besides being constructive was very interesting. A Panel Discussion and a third Debate were also held. We sincerely hope that next year’s Debating Society will have as much fun and will learn as much as we did this year. Many thanks to our advisor. Miss Vivienne F. Cote. 73 Jean Kelly, ’49 Left to Right—Eileen Cobb. June Ogden. Jessie Wyllle. Mary Roderick. Joan Fox. Dorothy Sav- vides. Lillian Healy, Betty Rustigan. T ▼ T Student Club The Student Club, a Y. W. C. A. organiza- tion under the supervision of Mrs. Ernest Scott, is made up of members from both East and West. The members from West are Betty Rustigan, Lillian Healy, June Ogden. Eileen Cobb, Barbara Blackmon, Joan Fox, Eileen Cote, Dorothy Savvides, Barbara Miller, Mary Roderick, and Jessie Wyllie. There were many activities this year, but the out-standing ones were: a Christmas For- mal, A Hayride, a St. Patrick’s Day Dance, a Mother and Daughter tea, three one-act plays, a Fashion Show, and the greatest event of the year, a Mother and Daughter Banquet. The members of the ’49 Student Club hope that many members of the class of ’50 will join next year in order to keep up the stan- dards of West High.

Due to their great financial gains, they were able to help the Debating Society by jointly sponsoring the “Turkey Trot”, a fall dance, and a Minstrel Show. The organization was also fortunate to be able to give a subscription to “LTllustration” to the school library. The members of the club have spent many fun-filled hours together, especially a party held at the Epiphany. The members plan to hold an outing at the end of the school year. Under the guidance of our able advisor. Miss Cote, a bright future can be predicted for Tour- jours Unis. 75 Maureen La pan, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Sally Goldstein. Harvey Green. David Rice.

Since it is primarily a service organization, its main function is to assist teachers through the use of visual aids. This practise has been in operation since the school’s beginning. During the course of the year, members of the V. E. C. could be seen hurrying through the corridors with a projector under one arm and an amplifier and screen under the other, destined to show slides or moving pictures in some classroom. The members were able to perform these duties by learning diligently under the guiding hand of Mr. Wilfred Berube. The students who join in the future are sure to find the organization interesting, and per- haps some will even take up visual aid work as a career. We sincerely hope the club will continue its good work and that new members will have as much enjoyment as the departing ones have had. 76 Edward H net tel, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Karl Antonevlch.

Y Y Y Junior Rotarians For the past year a group of boys have been attending the meetings of the Rotary Club. The boys are selected by Mr. Dascombe for their outstanding leadership and scholarship. Two boys attend three consecutive meetings. Then the boys “change the guard’' with two Junior Rotarians of some other high school in the vicin- ity of Pawtucket. While at the meetings, the Junior Rotarians enjoy dinner and sit in on the meeting which follows. By attending the meetings, the boys be- come acquainted with the civic life of our city. This year, one of the West Junior Rotarians was fortunate to have the opportunity of giv- ing the Rotary Club a young driver’s viewpoint on the questions. “Should Sixteen Year-olds Be Prohibited to Have Driver’s Licenses?’’ To Mr. Dascombe and the Rotary Club of Pawtucket, we, the Junior Rotarians of the class of ’49 extend our sincere appreciation and thanks. 77 William Garland. 49 FIRST ROW: Loft to Right—Lois Johnson.

The results were: Concertmaster, William Zon- frillo; Assistant Concertmaster, David Rice: Head Second Violinist, Florence Arnold; As- sistant Head Second Violinist, Paul Welch: and Secretary, Arlene Bardsley. Although the orchestra was impeded by other activities as far as attendance is con- cerned; nevertheless, enough time was found to prepare the orchestra for such assemblies as Music Week and the Christmas Assembly. In addition, some members attended the Rhode Island Music Festival which was held at Hope High School. As a final gesture, the class of ’49 extends to Miss O’Brien our sincere thanks for the help she has given us and we hope that she will have as much success with her future orchestras. 78 William Garland, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Antone Gomes.

Band Whether called upon to entertain at an as- sembly or to support the team at a game, the band has always come through. The size of the band has varied during the year due to the conflicting sports calendar and the fact that the band rehearses during school time. Yet, Mr. Gray has done a remarkable job with those students he finds available. Outstanding in the memories of all band members are the all-state band concert and the Rhode Island state music festival. These were held in December and May respectively, and our own Mr. Gray conducted part of the concert. The band was also present and active at the three one-act plays, the Pulaski and Columbus Day parades, and the Welcome Home Dance given for the Rhode Island state basketball champions, when they returned from Boston. The year 1949 has been an unusually good one for the West High Band. 79 Barbara Hudson, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—David Rice. Herbert Green. Karl Antonevlch. Norman Sprinthall. Henry Berry.

Al- though some of the boys entered the club as Seniors and hadn’t had too much experience at reading music, they learned quickly and added their talents to the organization. Some boys had other commitments; thus, they could not attend all the rehearsals. On the whole, however, the club was very faith- ful and did their work with a willing spirit and a strong heart. Some of the occasions for which they sang were: “Living Carols” presented by the Stu- dent Council; the Christmas Assembly; Music Week; and Honor Day. The club performed at an assembly which was recorded and played back over the radio. We, the class of '49, extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to Mr. Garland and we also wish the members of the club good- luck for the coming year. „ William Garland, ’49 80 FIRST ROW: Left to Right— Kathleen Carroll.

Jean Kelly, ’49 W esternaires The Westernaires is a small choral group made up from members of the Senior High School Girls’ Glee Club. These girls read music more easily, are gifted with voices somewhat above ordinary and are able to give the time required after school for the more frequent re- hearsals demanded. The membership is kept up from year to year by additions from the Girls’ Glee Club, voted in, after auditions, by the Westernaires, themselves. The Westernaires, who participate with the Glee Club, also take part in programs of wider significance, such as the assemblies planned for Brotherhood Week. Lincoln’s Birthday, Honor Day, and Class Day. Jean Kelly. ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Karl Antonevlch. Phillip Andersen. Harold Hlndle. Norman Sprfnthall. David Tankard. Richard Fortin.

President; David Tankard, Vice-President; Richard Fortin, Secre- tary; Harold Hindle, Treasurer. With the capable assistance of our advisor, Mr. Francis Cosgrove, we continued to sponsor the Satur- day Night Canteen in co-operation with the other Hi-Y’s in Pawtucket. The club has had a very busy social pro- gram including a hay ride to Camp Westwood last fall, a Hi-Y dance at the school cafeteria a week end trip to Fall River to at- tend the Older Hi-Y Conference and a long jaunt to New London to visit our Hi-Y friends from that city. In the sport fields, the West Hi-Y led the way as usual. Paced by the playing of Bump” Sprinthall, Ed” McCaffrey, and Len” La- marre. the basketball team won the City Hi- Y Championship for the 1949 season. In bowl- ing also, the boys led the league. The outgoing seniors wish the new' officers the best luck in ’50. 82 Don Wilson. ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Ruth Fltton. Zella Rodrigues. Dorothy Barnes. Dolores Woodward. Joanne Searles.

Ably assisting her were Theresa Byrnes, Vice-President; Dorothy Barnes, Secre- tary; Dolores Woodward, Treasurer; and Alda Rodrigues, Chaplain. Our advisor for the year was Mrs. Irene Courtois. As usual, our meet- ings were held every Wednesday evening at the Y. M. C. A. On March 4, 5, and 6, fourteen fortunate members were selected to go to the Older Girls’ Conference at Reading, Mass., with Miss Elec- tra Fogliano chaperoning. All agreed that much was gained from the speeches, friends, and fun enjoyed over the weekend. The social events of the year were a hay- ride, a rally dance held in conjunction with the Central Falls Hi-Y, and the very success- ful semi-formal dance held in February. The East Tri-Hi-Y and alumni were invited, and it is certain all had a wonderful time. As a service project, gifts and entertain- ment were provided for the children at St. Mary’s Home. Money was also donated to the World Youth Fund. We, the 1949 members of the West Tri-Hi- Y, feel that we have contributed to the pur- pose of Hi-Y—“to create, maintain, and ex- tend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character.” We sincerely hope the future members of Tri- Hi-Y will be able to feel the same. 83 Alda Rodrigues, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Lillian Healy, John Beverly.

The group consists of twelve history students who joined with other students from all over the state to form the Model State Legislature. The Legislature which originated last year gives the students a chance to learn how our state government is carried on. The students who take over the state capitol for an entire day act as senators and representatives. They in- Legislature troduce bills, send them into committee, and pass or kill them. From early March until April, these stu- dents could be found two or three nights a week in Room 273, being coached by Mr. Burns and Miss Cavanaugh. On April 9th the Pawtucket delegates made a wonderful show- ing; they debated like experts. It is the hope of this year’s members that the idea will be carried on so that others may gain the valuable experience they did. 84 Alice Cahill, ’49 Nx FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Gloria Luchesl.

With the aid of the cheerleaders, the crowds’ thunderous enthusiasm proved without a doubt, that West High has real school spirit. The cheerleaders with ardent school fans traveled down to Newport as well as to all the away games, via trucks and cars to help support their team. It is the wish of the four graduating Seniors, to see the future cheerleaders of West High followed by the same rousing eagerness that the class of ’49 received. 86 Phyllis Block, '49 Left to Right—Jessie Wyllle.

T w i r 1 e r s The twirlers, under the direction of their new advisor, Miss Joan Butler have just com- pleted a most successful season. The “high- stepping ten” could be seen at every home game twirling their team on to victory. At the East-West clash in the Auditorium they formed a “W”, went through a difficult twirling routine, and ended their exhibition with a short drill. The twirlers performed at both the Central Falls-West and the East-West rally dances. They also took part in every pep assembly. As they graduate, Head-Twirler, Jessie Wyl- lie, Jean Smith, and Alice Cahill wish their junior and sophomore sisters the best of luck. 87 Alice Cahill, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Arlene Audette.

TTY Leaders’ C o r p It is with reluctance that fifteen senior girls leave one of the most outstanding clubs at West known as the Girl Leaders’ Corps. At the beginning of their sophomore year, they were elected with the hope that they would fulfill and live up to the standards and duties which fell on them as Leaders. They have un- doubtedly accomplished their aim. It was a very sad day when Miss Carolyn Nachtreib announced that she would be unable to continue as our advisor. She had been with the club since its existance at West. However, her shoes were ably filled by Miss Fogliano, the new gym instructor. This years officers are: Ruth Rutledge, President; Dorothy Barnes, Vice-President; Ann Feital. Secretary; Margaret Fontaine, Treasurer; Phyllis Block, Historian; and Ruth Fitton, Song leader. An ever-popular annual event was our semi- formal dance to which the East Leaders and al- umni were invited. Bowling parties, a picnic at Goddard Park, our annual beach party to Scar- borough Beach all tended to make our year a very successful one. All is not play in the Leaders Corps: every Tuesday and Thursday the girls assist in- structors in the gym classes and also by ref- ereeing extra-curricular sports. We Leaders will never forget our experi- ences with the Corps from the time we were initiated at the impressive candlelight cere- mony to our very last meeting. 88 A Ida Rodrigues, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Audrey W'helan; Alice Cahill: Mary Barry: Margaret Flynn; Jean Smith: Jean Blackmer: Patricia Boyle: Rena Foucher: Lorraine Heroux: Claire Emerson.

TTY The Girls’ Varsity Swim Team J The following girls were members of the 1949 Girls’ Varsity Swim Team: Jean Black- mer, Patricia Boyle, Alice Cahill, Claire Em- erson. Rena Faucher, Peggy Flynn. Lorraine Heroux. Jean Smith. Mary Barry, Dolores An- dreoni, Betty English, Pearl Perry. Sylvia Thompson. Peggy Jamieson. Shirley Machado. Barbara Shaw. Maybelle Sterling. Audrey Wha- len, Cynthia Neuchez, Lucille Teatreault, Ann Pritchard. During the season, the team held two in- terclass meets and two varsity meets against the East High girls. The seniors won the first inter-class meet, and the juniors won the sec- ond. In both varsity meets East won by a very close score. The outstanding members of the year’s team were the following: Mary Barry, Patricia Boyle. Rena Faucher. Peggy Flynn. Jean Smith, Dolores Andreoni. Betty English, Pearl Perry, Peggy Jamieson, and Barbara Shaw. Although these girls were the outstanding members of the team, great credit and praise is due the rest of the girls who worked hard and long to help make the team a success. 89 Mary Barry, '49 Left to Right—Zelia Rodrigues. Shirley Langevin. Bertha Trinquier. Dorothy Barnes. Ruth Rutledge. Ileane Arruda. Marjorie Harte. Marion Kacharo. Girls’ Basketball The feminine portion of West High proved without a doubt, that girls like to play basket- ball just as much as the boys. The Senior High girls who participated in this sport found many exciting moments in their version of playing basketball. Early in the season. Miss Fogliano and Miss Butler instructed the girls in their gym classes, on the various techniques of basketball. After weeks of practising, the artful ways of pivot- ing and passing the ball, the girls had learned the rights and wrongs of basketball. Training over, the girls found themselves ready for after-school sessions of basketball which were held in our gymnasium. The inter- class games between the Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores, were quite thrilling. Naturally, as expected, the Senior team, the “Marionettes,” proved to be the final victors. As we graduate from West High, it is with the certain knowledge that basketball will re- main one of the most outstanding activities for the girls. 90 Phyllis Block, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Arlene Audette.

As soon as the call for volleyball recruits was announced, more than one hundred girls swamped the gym with girls from each class in the school, selecting their teams, electing captains, and deciding upon in- dividual names. Under the supervision of Miss Fogliano, the Juniors and Seniors met Tuesdays to begin the tournament while the Sophs and Ninth graders played on Thursdays under the super- vision of Miss Butler. When the championship game rolled around, we found the seniors wrho are known as the Cement Mixers headed by Bertha Trinquier and Ileane Arruda and the Snafus directed by Gloria Luchesi and Peg Fountaine, clashing in a game where the latter became the victors. The Snafus also became victorious by defeat- ing the Bombshells. The class of ’49 leaves the future Westerners best wishes for many successful volleyball sea- sons in the future. 91 Dot Barnes, ’49 Left to Right—Zelia Rodrigues: Claire Emerson: Ruth Rutledge: Ileane Arruda. Badminton Badminton showed its increasing popularity among the girls this year by the large number of candidates participating. Any girl who is in the Senior High School may participate in this sport; but in order to receive her points, she must reach the quarter-finals. This sport, one of the top favorites at West, has produced its champions. The 1949 Cham- pion of the singles tournament was Zelia Rod- rigues, with Ruth Rutledge as runner-up. The doubles champions were Ileane Arruda and Ruth Rutledge, who gave their opponents, Claire Em- erson and Zelia Rodrigues, a real fight. Ruth Rutledge was the 1949 R. I. State Girls’ Badminton Champion. She competed with girls from all over the state to capture this title. The success of badminton this year is due to Miss Electra Fogliano and Miss Joan Butler, who assist and guide the girls. The class of '49 extends wishes for good luck to all future badminton players of West Sen- ior High. May badminton continue to be one of the top favorite sports among the girls of West. 92 Marjorie Harte, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Norman Sprlnthall. Leonard Lamarre. Harold Hindle.

T ▼ ▼ Football Although the ’48-’49 edition of the West High Rangers had a relatively unsuccessful season, we must pay tribute to those athletes who through their undaunted efforts kept the never- say-die spirit of the Buff and Blue alive. Co- Captains Frank and John Palana, running many times for sizeable gains, and Bobby Holmes, the bulwark of defense, carried nobly the colors of West onto the field of friendly strife. The high light of the season came with the last game. After suffering defeats at the hands of our arch rivals and neighbors East and St. Rays; a determined West juggernaut faced North Providence. The Boys in Blue pushed the hapless North Providence eleven all over the field. Striking inside the opponents 5 yard line no less than 4 times, the West offense was shifted in high gear. But, Fate seemed to snic- ker in the face of Coach Kleniewski, the re- sult a 0-0 dead lock. Best of luck to next years team with the hope of a better record for a wonderful coach, Frank Kleniewski. 93 Norman Sprinthall, ’49 FIRST ROW: Left to Right—Manager William Anderson; Donald Boyer; George Furev; Man- ager Melvin Alpirn.

Basketball The 48-49 edition of West’s “hoopsters” proved to be nothing less than sensational. In 20 league tussles the Rangers emerged victori- ous 12 times and were vanquished in 8 en- counters. This record placed them in a fourth place tie with Hope, who conquered West in both league games. But in the playoffs, the in- spired Rutledge-men proved the stronger and were never headed in their 40-34 victory. This victory qualified the bronc-busters for the state playoffs, in which they were figured to be eliminated in the first round. The role of un- der-dog helped, rather than hindered our val- iant quintet, for they surged through three of the toughest teams in this state. With these victories came a w eek of restful preparation for the New England tournament in Boston Garden. In the first game of the New England tourna- ment our valiant crew held-off the very deter- mined Springfield Cathedral quintet • to the tune of 52-40. The Rangers succumbed to “the- not-to-be-denied” Somerville the next evening by a score of 47-40. There was not one player who out-shined the rest, for all the Westerners shared equally in producing their rise to the throne. 94 Karl Antonevich, ’49 Left to Right—Victor Gulness. Edward McCaffrey.

TTY Swimming The West High Natators. led by co-captains Chace Loomis and Karl Antonevich, concluded early in March the largest swim schedule in West High history. Although the mermen won only four meets out of eleven, they showed the characteristic fight of all West High sports- men. In the opening meet, Gardner, with a well- balanced squad, ran rough-shod over our in- experienced swimmers. We were also the vic- tims of a highly talented St. Georges and Moses Brown. But after changing the events of the veterans to fill in the weak spots, the West- erners rolled over the next two squads, Brook- line and St. Raphael. La Salle, a strong con- tender for New England laurels, nosed out our boys in two successive meets. Yet our boys showed they had come-back power in trim- ming St. Raphael in a return match and the powerful Dean Academy swimmers. However, against our arch rival East, the Rangers were far out-classed and succumbed twice to their powerful adversary. The senior lettermen are: Chace Loomis. Ed MaeCafTrey, Bruce Coito, and Tony Antonevich. 95 Karl Antonevich, ’49 FT.RST ROW :■ tAtt to Young-; D vid Thomas;: Maurice Fafsy; Norman Sprinthall: MoTtori' Olcckmftn; Harold Hittdlte'; Robert Giltig 'n, SiFCOND ROW; Left to Right--Mgr',.- George Dickie;: Robert Tucker; Barry Pierce: William Sar£esoT ; Roger Catalan: Robert Stanton: Roland Lamonde, TMifffl ROW: Left to Right--George Rocba: James McCartney; Peter Andre; Thomas Gorman; Harold LeFrancoiS:: Coach Frank Kleiiiewski, T rack This year's edition of the West High track squad is looking forward to having one of the best years since the sport was inaugurated.

T Y T Baseball Preparing to defend the Class B championship the West High baseball team started training in the gym during the early weeks of March. With the arrival of good weather, Coach Rut- ledge worked out the candidates extensively for the opening game against St. Raphael April 15. Since most of the starting team graduated last June, the Rangers of ’49 will present an almost completely new team. The pitching chores will be divided between “Red” Wain- wright, “Bob” Cassavant, “Iggy” Carroll, and “Slug” Wilson, with “Ray” Mello and “Bob” Butler as back stops. Around the bases are; “Al” Jackson, “Al” Postle, Chace Loomis, and Edgar Reynolds, with Tony Gomes as a capable replacement. The outfield is composed of “Dan” Brothis, “Bill” Healy. and “Milt” Holmes. With the continual help of Coach Rutledge, the Rangers have high hopes for the coming season. 97 “Don” Wilson, ’49 (Dam; Hill We the class of 191 9, being of sound mind and body, do hereby execute our last void and testament.

The long-awaited day had come. That September 1946, when we as sophomores, took our first step into West and became the Class of ’49. We were strangers in a new world—a world of Junior Proms, Senior Plays, and high- school romances. The first few weeks were all mixed up. We rushed back and forth to classes; met new friends; and learned new names. How many times did we find ourselves sitting in an Eng- lish class when we should have been in Biol- ogy, or hurrying to first lunch instead of third. The strangeness soon wore off, however, when we were invited to the “Soph Welcome Dance”. We felt like real Westerners then. For the first time, we elected officers and chose Don Boyer as our president; Norma Ev- erly, vice-president; Richard Ricci, treasurer; and Lillian Giordano, secretary. Then came mid-years! We had been warned about them, so expected the worse. But since they came and went without any serious cas- ualties, we settled down to normal again and concentrated on the coming Sophomore play, “Inner Willy”. Our first class dance was the Soph Hop, and we proudly decorated the gym with green sham- rocks and streamers. We were glad when summer vacation came, but just as glad when it was over, for now we were Juniors. Now it was our turn to feel superior when giving directions to those “little” Sophomores. Our class officers for this year were: Ray- mond Lundgren, president; Bertha Trinquier, vice-president; Ruth Hessenthaler, secretary, and John Palana, treasurer. Our baseball and swimming teams were tops this year, and the Juniors outdid themselves in both sports. “Red Spider”, our Junior play, was a big success, and we now felt that our class was the one and only class at West. This feeling grew with the arrival of our Junior Prom. Everyone looked so different; the girls in their shiny new formats, and the boys in their best suit of clothes. No, we’ll never forget our Junior Prom and the fun we had. We felt a new sense of pride and value when we w'ere presented with the gold torch by the Seniors on Class Day. West became more dear to us, and we were determined to make our senior year, the best year of our lives. With our senior year came newr respon- sibility. We were at last the “Sophisticated Seniors”, and did we know' it! Our shiny new class rings wrere w'orn with pride, and the gold torch on its onyx background meant more to us than ever before. To lead our senior class, we elected: Frank Palana, president: Ruth Rutledge, vice-presi- dent; Dorothy Barnes, secretary; and John Palana, treasurer. “The Cinderella Kids”! That’s what they called our great basketball team this year. The words on everybody’s lips wrere, “Wha Hop- pen!” Our team surprised the best of critics by winning the R. I. State Championship. The Rangers fought hard, and with the help of our swell cheering sections equipped with cowboy hats and pistols, won top honors in the league as well as the admiration of all. Who will for- get the “Welcome Home Champs” dance in honor of the team equipped with cheerleaders, twirlers, band, and Coach Rutledge, too. The hit of the year was A Date with Judy”, our Senior Play. A high school romance never to be forgotten. Dances will come and go. but none will ever take the place of the Senior Reception. To every Senior, it means more than just a dance. It is the climax of high school days so long re- membered, and so dearly cherished. The boys, suddenly grown-up in their tuxedos; the girls, floating in gowns of foam; dancing beside their class-mates for perhaps the last time. And then Class Day! How proud we were in our caps and gowms, signing each others year books. Who couldn’t help thinking, as we joined hands and sang our Alma Mater, of all the fun we’ve had and the friends we’ve made in our three years at West. It is our hope and aspiration that in the pages of West High history there will stand at the top of the list, our class, the Class of ’49. 99 Arlene S.
