' Route 5o THE YEARBOOK of 1957 WESTON HIGH SCHOOL WESTON, MASSACHUSETTS INTRODUCTION It is significant for us that the new toll road should have its beginning in Weston. For just as the traveler on that road begins his journey from Weston, we too are setting out from Weston for places unknown on the highway of life. As many roads lead to the highway from various surrounding towns, so there have been many paths in our lives leading us to this main highway. Now we are turning off the smaller lanes in our lives and swinging onto the throughway. We are setting out in earnest, traveling into life for the first time alone, dependent only upon ourselves. It is for us now to continue along this highway to our goal. We must not give up or allow ourselves to be sidetracked onto a lesser route, for there is much ahead to see and much to be done which requires our youth and energy. As we view the years in retrospect, one year blends into the next. But this, our final year in Weston High School, has been one of great import. Just as the motor¬ ist refuels his car before entering the highway, so we, before beginning our journey into life, have consciously fueled up with all the knowledge which teachers and textbooks could impart to us. We have participated in clubs and athletics with students from all grades of the high school. We wish to express the closeness and sense of belonging that we feel towards the school, its activities, and the people connected with it by merging throughout the book the Senior pictures with all the activities that occurred dur¬ ing the year. As we turn the pages we recall wistfully the people and activities which we will always remem¬ ber as being part of our last year in Weston High School. CONTENTS Principars Message . . Dedication.

MUELLER During our four years as students at Weston High we, both as a class and as individuals, have ap¬ preciated the kind counsel and sympathetic help of our principal. The smoothly functioning school we have known throughout our four years was organized by Mr. Mueller after years of unexpected and unusual dif¬ ficulties; the sudden death of the superintendent forcing Mr. Mueller to take over the superintendent ' s duties as well as his own,- the fire in the high school the next year making it necessary to complete that year in Waltham High School under crowded and confusing conditions ,- the classes held in Weston again in any tree corner, including the gymnasium, the assembly hall, and even corridors,- and finally the move into the new high school, but again under un¬ favorable conditions, for construction on the building was still going on. Throughout these years of trial Mr. Mueller strove to provide his students with good schooling and to maintain the standards of the school. The standards he set then, he has kept high, and today we Seniors can present our credentials from Weston High School proudly. We take pride in dedicating this, our Yearbook of 1957, to Mr. Julius Mueller. 4 ♦ I« WESTON HIGH SCHOOL with its parking areas, drives, playing fields for football, base¬ ball, and field hockey, was photographed from a helicopter by a senior, George Heck, just as spectators were arriving to view our final football game of the season. We wonder if school committees of other towns hold meetings as often or as long as those held in Weston. Below we see members of our school committee, Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Crawford, Dr. Bayles, and Mrs. Weaver meet¬ ing with Dr. Brackett, Superintendent of Schools, to discuss school problems, establish school policy, and carry out the multitudinous duties which fall on their shoulders. Missing from the picture is Mr. Burns. 5 Mr. JULIUS MUELLER Bates College Principal Mr. Mueller ' s administrative reserve only superficially covers a warm heart and friendly manner that shows itself in his sincere interest in each individual student, despite his manifold duties. Mr. WALLACE SAWYER University of New Hampshire Chemistry, Science Department Chairman Mr. Sawyer promotes the Science Fair with projects representing all grades. Two years ago he was selected as one of the two outstanding teachers in the field of science and mathematics in the state. Mrs. HELENE MINSKY Secretary Mrs. Minsky is busy keeping the of¬ fice running efficiently. She also finds time to show her interest in the stu¬ dents by attending all school events. Dr. ANTHONY G. L. BRACKETT Middlebury College Superintendent of Schools Dr. Brackett ' s time-consuming and laborious job of Superintendent of Schools is balanced with the quiet, summer seclusion of an island in Casco Bay where he enjoys living in the outdoors. In the winter Dr. Brackett enjoys meetings and concerts. Miss PATRICIA STEVENS Secretary Miss Stevens graduated from Weston in 1955 and came back this year. She has successfully made the step from student to member of the staff. Mr. JOHN PROCTOR Springfield College Dean of Students, Physical Education You can ' t hope to find a greater guy than the Dean. He not only has many jobs in the high school, but he is the Recreation Director of the town. Mr. CHARLES K. CUMMINGS, Jr. Harvard Director of Guidance, Modern Problems Do you want to know what school to attend after Weston High? Ask Mr. Cummings. Do you want help in finding a job? Ask Mr. Cummings. In fact, if you want advice of any sort, just ask Mr. Cummings. 6 Mr. GEORGE HILL Boston University Social Studies Mr. Hill gives most of his time after school to helping with sport activities, such as seventh grade football, and the golf team. This seems very logical when we find much of his spare time is taken up with golf. Miss CLAIRE Me DONOUGH RadclifFe College Social Studies, English The eighth grade students are a lucky group to have a person like Miss McDonough as their advisor. The fact that she enjoys culture is expressed beautifully in her charming voice. ! MODERN PROBLEMS is a composite of history, so¬ ciology, economics, and philosophy. Much research and discussion characterize the work done in this class. By keeping up with developments in our swiftly changing world, we form the habit of reading newspapers daily. Mrs. ROSAMUND HOWE Radcliffe College Science, English Georgraphy, Arithmetic Mrs. Howe has perhaps the most varied teaching load in the faculty. When she isn ' t teaching, she likes to travel, or relax with a good book. Miss ELIZABETH HUNTER University of Virginia English, Social Studies, Human Relations Miss Hunter starts the eighth grade girls on the right foot through her understanding counseling. She enjoys sports and is often found at our sport events, but her chief sport is summer traveling. Miss BARBARA STILES Stanford University School of Humanities Geography Miss Stiles, a newcomer to Weston, is enjoyed because she is helpful and extremely co-operative. She enjoys the outdoors and belongs to the Appalachian Mountain Club and the Ameri¬ can Youth Hostels. - ' j , 7 I ' With our arrival in S ENIOR ENGLISH, we find that our course of study with Mr. Mitchell leans more toward the cultural than the practical. ; English literature is made more interesting by models, such as this of the Globe Theater made by a student two years ago. However, our week- • ends are still clouded by the thoughts of compositions to be written. j 1 SPEECH ARTS is planned to fa¬ cilitate speaking in public. It familiarizes us with prepared, impromptu and choric speak¬ ing. We also work with radio production and dramatics. Mr. PAUL MITCHELL Boston University C.L.A. English Mr. Mitchell ' s pride in his own youngsters may be one reason why he is so understanding. The Student Council under his direction benefits the whole school, and the yearbook editors have greatly appreciated his aid. Miss ANNE HOERNER Smith College English Miss Hoerner, formerly a practice teacher, is the advisor to the newspaper staff, and we have found that under her excellent leadership the staff does a fine job on the newspaper. Mr. JOHN ZORN University of New Hampshire English, Speech Arts Mr. Zorn is the spark of the Announcers ' Club, which he origi¬ nated. Equally important, he organizes and produces the school play in a fashion which makes it almost completely a student production. Mr. HENRY DeRUSHA Hyannis Teachers College English Mr. DeRusha ' s friendly attitude makes him liked by everyone. Along with teaching English he has the responsibility of directing the seventh grade program. He enjoys craft work in his spare time. 8 Mrs. THERESA ZAMPROGNO Boston University C.L.A. Head of Foreign Language Department, French Mrs. Z. is a very busy woman for, in addition to classes, she is the girls ' guidance counsellor in grades nine through eleven (A BIG JOB.) Because of her cheery way, her French classes are enjoyed by all. Miss ELEANOR MASTIN University of New Hampshire Latin, French In Miss Mastin we find not only friendliness, but a tremendous school spirit. She shows us that she is behind us when we find her at many of the sports events of both boys and girls. Mr. MARTIN MARTINIAN Boston University Latin, History, French Mr. Martinian is the faculty advisor to the Weston Rhombas Affiliation Committee in the school. Under his leadership a mem¬ ber from Weston High was sent to Rhombas, France, as an ex¬ change student. Mr. WENDELL PHILLIPS Boston University, School of Music Band, Orchestra, Choir, and Chorus When Mr. Phillips came to Weston five years ago, a new en¬ th usiasm for music came with him. We now have in the school a choir and a chorus, in addition to an orchestra and a uni¬ formed band. 1 I I 1 Weston High offers only two FOREIGN LANGUAGES, Latin and French. Since the community is college minded, a considerable number of pupils elect the first two years of Latin. The study of French does not begin until the sopho¬ more year to avoid starting two foreign languages in one year. However, third year classes in both subjects are small and intimate. Mrs. JEAN MUNRO Lowell State College Music Photography and travel consume what little spare time Mrs. Munro has when she isn ' t rushing to her music classes in four different buildings. 9 Miss HELEN B. GREEN Boston University, C.L.A. Algebra, Senior Mathematics Miss Green has the time-consuming jobs of advisor to the senior class, yearbook staff, and math. club. She was cited this year by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences for outstanding teaching in secondary schools. Mr. ROBERT CARINI Clark University Algebra, Geometry, Basic Math Mr. Carini and his friendly way will always be remembered, and also the great job he has done as basketball coach. We will never forget all the time he spent with the boys as assistant football coach. Mr. CHARLES MEDFORD Boston University C.L.A. Arithmetic, Human Relations Mr. Medford loves children. At home he has three, at school he is counsellor to the eighth grade boys and is a teacher, and in the summer he directs a camp for young boys and girls. Mrs. VICTORIA FOLEY Salem State Teachers College . . Arithmetic Mrs. Foley has taught in college, high school, and elementary school situations. Her love of teaching is shown in that with five young children of her own, she chooses to continue work with other ' s children. Mrs. JUNE ELSWORTH Wheaton, Smith Algebra, Eighth grade Math This is Mrs. Elsworth ' s first year at Weston. She previously taught in Mass., California, and New Jersey. We are delighted that she loves it here. Here members of the class in MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS show three approaches to the ellipse by equation, locus, and conic sur¬ face. After three years of the usual college preparatory courses in mathematics, seniors may elect either or both of two courses— trigonometry and elementary analysis; solid and analytic geome¬ try There is also a senior refresher course in basic math. 10 Mr. HENRY DOCKLER Norwich University Basic Electricity, Physics After graduating from college Mr. Dockler taught school until he entered the army and rose to the rank of colonel. This year he came to Weston to teach in the science fields. One of his many enjoyments is hunting. Mr. RICHARD HAM Bowdoin College Biology, French, General Science Mr. Ham helps the students of the school with their Science Fair projects. He also gives the sophomores that needed help¬ ing hand on the Football Dance. During his spare time he enjoys swimming. eunnccuioft Miss MILDRED MARBLE Fitchburg State Teachers College Science Miss Marble has been at Weston for many years, and we know that our senior high school science courses were more attractive to us as a result of her keen interest in the subject. Mrs. DOROTHY MULROY Wells Science With the coming of Mrs. Mulroy last September, Weston added an enthusiastic teacher of science to the staff. With her eighth grade daughter, Mrs. Mulroy enjoys the theater, ballet, and travel. She also enjoys Weston. Precision and accuracy as well as the power to reason are qualities which the study of PHYSICS encourages. Although new develop¬ ments in nuclear science have influenced this study in high schools, a knowledge of basic facts is still necessary. Here we see three young physicists intent on their experiment involving observation and calculation. Mrs. SIGNE HYNSON Goucher College Librarian Mrs. Hynson is always willing to help us, whether we need research material for special reports, or just want a good book to read. 1 1 The INDUSTRIAL ARTS department has an abundance of modern equipment which affords our boys training in woodworking, auto me¬ chanics, mechanical drawing, metal working, and the designing and landscaping of model homes. Here we see members of the senior class in auto mechanics putting their knowledge to practical use. In Weston enrollment in the COMMERCIAL COURSE is much smaller than in the college course. Students who elect it receive excellent training in typing and shorthand, with office practice in the senior year. The personal typ¬ ing course is popular with college preparatory students. xtct cxtM-cunnccuCa i ofrfrontuputcc Mr. AIMO TEITTINEN Fitchburg State Teachers College Mechanical Drawing and Industrial Arts Mr. Teittinen is usually busy down in the shop. He is one of the main reasons why our school play is a completely student production, in that the members in his industrial arts classes make and handle the scenery. Mr. MALCOLM OLIVER Fitchburg State Teachers College As scenery coordinator Mr. Oliver is of great assistance behind the scenes at the annual school play. Like a postman who takes a walk on his day off, his hobby is woodworking. Miss THELMA CARAM Salem State Teachers College Shorthand, Typing, Office Practice Miss Caram, besides a full teaching toad, gives the students a lot of her free time helping them with the newspaper. She also organizes a student secretarial staff for the faculty. Miss ELIZABETH COBB Framingham State College Foods, Clothing, Education for Family Life Miss Cobb is one who is always willing to help us, no matter what our need. When the science fair comes along, she has the job of supervising a dinner for the judges pre¬ pared and served by her foods class. Custodians Mr. MacLeod, Mr. Merrill, and Mr. Clarke, our three custodians, spend long hours keeping our school clean. How well they do this is revealed by the spotless appearance of the classrooms and corridors. Busy as they are, they always find time to talk with us and to lend a helping hand. €iot uCci6(c U4. ail Mental exercise creates hunger, and without our capable cafeteria staff, Mrs. Foote, Mrs. Jaques, Mrs. Riley, and Mrs. Burke behind the scenes, what would we learn in the classes following lunch! They are very co-operative w hen we ask for the use of the cafeteria facilities for extra¬ curricular activities. Mr. GEORGE HARRIS Springfield College Boys ' Physical Education Coach Harris does more than teach the skill of various sports; he also teaches the boys to work together and remem¬ ber that playing the game hard and fair is more important than winning. Miss MA.RIE BUTERA Sargent College Physical Education Miss Butera has been in Weston only one year, but she has already made a hit with the girls, because she is so con¬ sistently cheerful and helpful. Her work leaves her little time for her hobbies of reading and sports. Miss ALICE OLLIFF Massachusetts School of Art Art How enthusiasm has grown in the art department since Miss Olliff came! She has made the school art-conscious by leader¬ ship of the art service club. Without her what would the jun¬ iors do for prom ideas? All Students electing ART have an increasing op¬ portunity for individual expression, including some as¬ signed projects. Senior students select some field in art to pursue as a research problem with a culmi¬ nating project which reflects the ability of the student. HOMEROOM 12, ROW 1: A. Enos, N. Clark, J.

Their organization is that of a junior high school, they are developing their own assembly pro¬ gram, and they have established their own student council, a project for which we hope they have gained helpful ideas from attendance at meetings HOMEROOM 21, ROW 1: S.

We hove missed the youth and energy of the seventh grade this year, and we are happy to see them when they join the high school for such activities as the band and orchestra and for cooking and shop classes.

J 17 C4W€4tc ' ite toute4 €4 iAcc i lecut CLASS OF 1960 Being the youngest members of a school is never easy, os Freshmen in Weston High School have discovered. Although they had some experience with the high school routine as eighth graders in the high school building, there were many problems which they had not met before. In Junior High School everyone must take the same subjects, but upon en¬ tering Senior High School, Freshmen have a choice as to what fields they wish to enter and choose their courses accordingly. While still in the eighth grade the students, and their parents, teachers, and guidance personnel have several meetings together to discuss Senior High School and different subjects which the students may take. If eighth graders wish to attend college after graduating from high school, they are advised to take the college preparatory course through their high school years. This offers a choice of studies besides those usually required by colleges; at least two years of mathematics, foreign language courses, and a good four year English course. Those who do not wish to go on to college may choose a more general course with commercial subjects which pre¬ pare them for secretarial jobs and with shop courses which provide students with the necessary skills for jobs in various trades. After learning about the courses through these conferences, the eighth grad¬ ers, with their parents, make out a tentative four year plan. With this basic plan in mind, eighth graders enter the Senior High School with some idea of what their direction will be throughout the four years. Freshmen find that there are many facets of high school life which are interesting and worthwhile. They now have the opportunity to become library assistants or to join clubs and Choir or Chorus. Our Freshmen are now full-fledged members of the high school, and the cooperation and interest they show in school affairs bring new life and vitality to the school and give us pleasure in welcoming the new¬ comers to the Senior High School.

Diffi¬ cult decisions as to what subjects to take are in the past, and sophomores are pursuing courses selected in accordance with future plans. With their courses established and college boards far in the distant future, sophomores feel freer to participate vigor¬ ously in varied extracurricular activities. Athletes on whom the school will depend in the future begin to appear as boys go out for football, basketball, and baseball, and girls for field hockey, basketball, and softball. Personal athletic skill which will be of value throughout life is developed by individuals in track, tennis, and golf. Many sophomores find it interesting as well as good experience to work in the office during free periods, on the staff of the Smoke Sig¬ nal, or as a member of the Announcer ' s Club. The mechanical minded join this club for the opportunity to become club technicians. The Math and Typing Clubs attract others, and Sophomores with a dra¬ matic bent compete with other classes for the honor of representing the school on the stage, as they try out for parts in the annual school play. Sophomores who are members of the Student Council raise their voices more frequently to offer suggestions which will help their school. In every activity of high school life, the increasing maturity of the sophomores in¬ dicates their promise as the future leaders of Weston High. ROW 1: C. Miller, L. Shepardson, S. Murphy, A.

CLASS OF 1958 Juniors find the prospect of college boards and the selection of a college looming large on the ho¬ rizon. The opportunity to establish a school achieve¬ ment record will not be repeated, and juniors must strive seriously to make this record one they will be proud to have follow them throughout life. As students in the upper half of high school, juniors enjoy increased freedom and show themselves well able to shoulder the responsibilities which go with such freedom, as they uphold the standards of the school and set a good example for the younger stu¬ dents. Juniors find the Discussion Club open to them and become increasingly active in the clubs they may have joined during the previous years. The ability to work with other people and the creative skills developed in these clubs prove their value when the juniors produce one of the most h appily antici¬ pated events of the year, the Junior Prom. Juniors who became candidates for the National Honor Society during their second year of high school, by maintaining high scholastic achievement, become full members, joined by those juniors whose diligence has brought their grades up to the required standards. Talents in other fields blossom, as singers and pi¬ anists develop in choir, expert cheerleaders and twirlers appear among the girls, and the athletes begin to make names for themselves. As all-around members of the student body, juniors prove them¬ selves the backbone of Weston High. ROW 1; S. Chisolm, C. Atwood, E. Borbetti, R, Fobbri, A, Barclay, C. Cummings, J. Flanders, M.

They were responsible for the organization of committees and also directed the selection of the yearbook staff. The staff of the yearbook was elected late in the junior year. During the summer they, with their advisors, held several meetings. They planned the theme and general layout of the yearbook. After returning to school in September, the work loomed up before the staff. Saturdays and holidays were spent at the school. Finally with the help of other members of the class, the yearbook was completed. The stafF felt proud and relieved that the last page had been sent to the publisher. The members of the senior class owe a cheer of appreciation to the senior officers and the yearbook staff who have done their best to make the Class of 1957 the best ever. A. McClennen, president; S.

Tad has been a member of the class of 1957 since elementary school. He was one of the most popular and well rounded boys in our class. Tad has had many positions of importance in the class and has been very active in sports. Tad is a great lover of track, swimming, baseball, and he played intramural basketball on his class team. Tad has always had a very high academic standard, and though he had his doubts at times that he would ever be able to manage his life in France, his classmates always encouraged him and told him that he couldn ' t fail. In September before he left, Tad came to visit the school for a last forewell. He visited the French III class, consisting of members of his own class, to tell us all about the trip, how he was going, when he would arrive, and what he would do when he got there. It was plain to see the excite¬ ment rising in his face and the envy was equally visible in the faces of his classmates. A few of his friends gathered at the wharf in Boston to bid him fare¬ well when he set sail for France. Every word that we have heard from him has been full of enthusiasm and praise. His comments seem to indicate that he loves being in France and is having a wonderful time. However, we read between the lines that he will be glad to get back to the good old U.S.A. For each of the past three years the Town and School Affiliation Committees have made it possible for Weston to entertain a French student. This year we were priv¬ ileged not only to receive a French student, but also to send a Weston student to France. The Weston-Rombas Affiliation Committee of the school is advised by Mr. Martinian, a language teacher. The committee consists of members from each class and meets in the short opening period of school. The com¬ mittee tries to encourage correspondence in the school, and does all it can to help raise funds for the exchange student program. One of the annual projects of the Affiliation Com¬ mittees is the selling of Christmas Cards especially designed by a Weston resident, student, or a Regis College student. The profits of this sale go to the Af¬ filiation treasury. This organization is one of the finest in school, for it gives students a feeling of closeness with our friends across the ocean. This is important in understanding people of other countries now and in later life. cutd Sedo C 4 cicatcoH ( MuHcttee . ANDRE ROESSLINGER, from Hagondange, France, came to Weston in October. When he arrived in the United States he was met by repre¬ sentatives of the Town Affiliation Committee. Andre ' s arrival was anxiously awaited by all the students at Weston and especially the senior class, as they were adopting him. When Andre came to school the first day it was obvious that he was ' nervous and a little ill at ease, but he didn ' t fail to flash that wonderful and friendly smile which made everyone like him the minute they saw him. Andre is interested in mathematics and science and plans to continue the study of them next year back in France. This year he is taking a variety of courses. They include United States History, English, Modern Problems, Trigonometry and Mathematical Analysis, Physics, and French II. As is the custom at Weston High School, an informal reception was held for Andre soon after his arrival. It was a chance for the students who never get an opportunity to speak to Andre to meet him. Many came to welcome him to Weston and I think that Andre felt the warmth of the students. In January a Town reception was held for him. Many townspeople attended. Andre gave a very amusing and wonderful account of his first impressions of the United States and Weston. We wish to say to Andre that we have never met a more wonderful person, such a warm personality and smile. We hope that success is his in whatever he does after leaving Weston and that he will write often. 33 TECHNICIANS: F. Crawford; J. Hall; P. Brayton; H. Proctor; T. Laffin; W. Scorgie; R. Wigginton.

The club is well organized, and has a president, Ed Ellis, a studio manager, Jane Perkins, an assistant studio manager, Nancy Foster, and secretary- treasurer Jean Havey. The announcers are instructed by Mr. Zorn, advisor, to speak slowly and clearly. This training is valuable in overcoming any fright that one may have of speaking. The technician learns all the functions of the Public Address system in the office. This class is one of the favorites among the students.

Its purpose was to include the students who had a love of music and also possessed good voices. The try-outs are held at the beginning of each year by Mr. Phillips, at which time he has an opportunity to hear individual voices. Every Monday and Wednesday the choir meets in the cafeteria for forty-five minutes. This time is well spent preparing for concerts for the school and town organizations. This year the choir received robes as a gift of the Weston Women ' s Community League. These blue-grey robes were worn for the first time at the Christmas Assembly.

The band and majorettes are featured at the football games. The band, now completely in uniform, plays during the game and marches during the half-time. The majorettes add great interest with their half¬ time routine. These girls spend many hours of their time preparing these exhibitions, but they feel fully rewarded when they are complimented after their performance. The band also plays at school and town functions, including most school assemblies. Memorial Day parade, and the Annual Spring Concert, in which all the musical organizations participate. Under the direction of Mr. Phillips this band has risen to great fame. It has received many honors not only in Weston, but also at its many participations in com¬ petitions. The majorettes have their most active season during football, but they continue to practice throughout the year for the competitions. Last year ' s squad won a first prize in competition, this year all the girls are working to equal this honor. The majorettes and the band are a very important and enjoyable part of all Weston student activities. GEORGE HIGBEE HECK Who, me? . . .

This is true also in high school life, and football is one of these helpful diversions. It helps to strengthen char¬ acter as well as the body. Football in Weston has accomplished both of these things. Despite the injuries that began even before the first game and continued the whole season, the spirit of the boys was indomitable. The first of these casualties was Kerm Sty- ron, who dislocated his shoulder; then Bob Murray broke his leg. After the first game Dick Hallet sustained a broken hand, and finally Jock Gates finished off the casualty list with a broken leg. Each boy was giving his best, afternoon after afternoon and in every game. The team practiced hard and long in an effort to perfect each play. Much credit must be given to Coach Harris for keeping up this spirit. Despite the various discouragements encountered, the school backed the team in every way. Their loyalty was rewarded when the team made its best showing of the season against a strong Way- land team. At the game ' s end the score showed that Weston had tallied more points against Wayland than any other team playing Wayland this year.

Fifty-five enthusiastic girls turned out in the fall for the first official field hockey practice. Of these the imp ressive number of forty had energy and persistance to remain on the squad throughout the season. The Varsity team had another undefeated year, being victorious in all but two games in which they tied. They were unscored upon in all but their second game with Concord. The Junior Varsity team was un¬ defeated and unscored upon in all their games. Such a record could not have been attained without the support, competition, athletic skills, and fighting spirit supplied by the entire squad. Our high scorers on the Var¬ sity were D. White, N. White, B. King, and A. Kellogg. The Junior Varsity high scorers were M. Connor, S. Herrick, D. Graves, and W. Mann. This successful season closed with a field day at Concord where the girls played Newton, Belmont, and Concord Academy. Maintaining their record, the team made scores of Weston—2, Newton—0; Weston—0, Belmont—0; and Weston—1, Concord Academy—1. Miss Butera, the coach, deserves much of the credit for this suc¬ cessful season. IRIS ANN HUBBARD Posie . . .green eyes. . .friendly . . .well dressed. . .happy laugh.

As today the billboards are becoming more vivid and attractive, so the cheerleaders in their % modern uniforms are becoming more eyecatching. These girls represent our school spirit at games with other schools. The ease with which they go through their routines is the result of hours of practice. In the spring after a week of training in the fundamental techniques of leading, the candi¬ dates for the squad hold a demonstration before judges selected by the gym teacher but unknown to those trying out. Later the judges announce the winners who will represent the school as cheer¬ leaders for the following year. Please, Coach, can ' t the boys go out tonight? Fight, team, fight!

The author, Owen Davis, satirizes humanity in general, showing the pettiness and intolerance that can develop in a small town. The setting was the parlor of the Jordan Homestead, Veazie, Maine; the theme Just a few folks with nothing to think about but mean, little things that get to be bigger than all the world outside. Icebound, that ' s what we are, all of us—inside and out. The students portrayed their roles realistically and sensitively, making the play an artistic and a financial success, due in large measure to the director, Mr. John W. Zorn. £4- iat£4 cecC £t t le tuuuieU NANCI STEELE MAILMAN “The long way home! . .. neat. . . attractive clothes...a cheery hello to everyone. .. dislikes snobs.

Mr. Zorn adds a little zip to the expression in the players voices. Judy Sherman, fourth from right, was the ever-faithful prompter. Behind the production there are un-told hours spent in trying to cast the students properly and to rehearse. Mr. Zorn and the cast spent very busy after¬ noons before the play to get cues and lines down to perfection. Most of this time was spent in serious rehearsal, but there were a few antics that loosened everyone ' s nerves. Bob Walsh with his little witty sayings added a great deal, but the big surprise was when he showed up on crutches with a sprained ankle. Of course the flirtatious love scene between Joe Wager and Linda Rudell was the target of a few enlightening comments. The cast had an undying interest and should be proud of their production.

The four qualities by which the candidates are judged are character, service, scholarship, and leadership. The candidates must have a certain percentage average in grades depend¬ ing on the year in school, in the sophomore class there are pro¬ bationary members who will become official members in their junior year if they maintain their average. This achievement is a great honor to the members. We wish to congratulate all of them. SENIOR MEMBERS: S. Smith; B. Page; A. McClennen; J. Gilman,- W. Chodsky; E. Farrar; F. Tyng.

These assemblies are chosen because of their content, whether it may be serious or humorous. Each assembly is different and all are educational in one way or another. It is certainly one of the high-lights of our school life to hear about someone ' s travels, experiences, to see amusing imitations, and to hear various artists ' musical talents. In our travels it is hard to find a more enjoyable stop at which to relax. Bill Scorgie and Paul Chadwick assist Mr. and Mrs. Smythes by playing the drums.

Heerdt were the guards who brought the ball up. 52 From the first tap-off Weston was out to prove they were worthy of o Tech Tourney berth. The first six players were boys who hod been groomed through the lost two years for the first string. They were determined to prove Weston was a first division club. They proved it by posting an impressive 10 and 3 record, and when they defeated Newton Trade they were assured of a Tech Tourney bid. In their first tourney game they overpowered a very small Oak Bluffs team 61 to 37. Don Brayton was high man with 22 points. The team met a strong Rockport team with confidence and defeated them 59 to 48 with Don Brayton again going over the 20 point mark with 26. However, West Bridgewater in the quarter finals proved too much for us and came through with a 58 to 39 victory. The score does not indicate the true nature of the game for we were behind by only 5 points at the half, and, though defeated, we left the floor as champions to the 500 Weston students who had watched the game.

She hod over seventy promising can¬ didates from whom she could pick only twenty-five. After four try-outs and much consideration she chose the members of the team.

Motorists on the highway occa¬ sionally will be compelled to take side roads and detours while re¬ pairs are being made on the main road. The same thing occurs in school sports. Last spring all tennis was cancelled because the town courts were being resurfaced. This detoured all girls interested in spring sports to the softball field. The scheduled three afternoons of practice each week were frequently cancelled because of the unusually wet season. This unco-operative weather did not prevent success. As the season progressed the girls became increasingly skillful. This was very effectively shown by the fact that, although they lost to Wellesley in their first game, they won the other three games which the weather permitted them to play, defeating Sudbury, Wayland, and oncord.

The golfer, like the driver, has no one to share the responsibilities for his success or failure in the game. Un¬ like other sports where one can turn to a teammate to help share the load, the golfer is alone. His success is due to his form and temperament. Golf at Weston has flourished, thanks to the efforts of Dean Proctor. Last year the team played four matches: two with Waltham, one with Newton, and one with Franklin. These matches gave the players valuable competitive experience. Weston is a town ideally suited for a sport like golf, and we are happy to see it has gained followers in Weston High School.

The basketball season ter¬ minates at the end of February, while the softball and baseball season, because of the wet ground, can not begin until April. This leaves a little over one month of non- official sports. Holding intramurals during this time provides an excellent opportunity for everyone to enjoy sports competition. The girls hold class contests among the four high school grades in both basketball and volleyball. This intercloss competition helps to create strong class spirit. To pre¬ vent those girls who hove played on the Varsity squad from composing the majority of the teams, o rule has been established which states that only one Varsity member may ploy on each team. The other Varsity players use their skills in officiating in the gome s and managing the teams. This year Dean Proctor arranged the boys intramurals in a new way. He appointed the first ten members of the Varsity basketball squad to be captains for the intramural teams. Each team consists of members from each class which helps create a close feel¬ ing among classes. Thus strong class spirit along with unity throughout the school is promoted by these intramurals.

Baseball nearly hit a grand-slam at Weston this year. With a flock of lettermen returning from last year ' s squad the team again won the Dual County League Championship in a double-header playoff with Wayland. Ken Healey came through like a pro in the second game to put Weston in the Class C Division of the Eastern State Tournament. The first game of the tournament was all Weston. With the pitching of Ken Healey and the whole team hitting at w ' ill we proved too much for Frank¬ lin and beat them 10 to 5. The second game was a different story. Ken Healey and Jeff Robbins pitched us to a 3 to 1 victory, but not until Tom Healey and Owen Connolly had corpe up with base hits to break a 1 to 1 tie. We finally met our match in the semi-finals, however, losing to a strong Ipswich team 7 to 1. In truth the game and the season did not end until the last out.

Cummings, C. Jameson, P. Fowler. In driving a car, one needs to be quick of mind and quick to react. A driver must be able to maneuver in traffic, and keep an eye on the pedestrian. He should always have an inkling of what the other fellow is going to do. Tennis is similar to operating a car, for it too requires both mental and physical quickness. A good tennis player can cover the court like a blanket, and always be one step ahead of his opponent in thinking. Tennis provides a chance to sharpen these reactions at Weston High School. Under the coaching of Dean Proctor, the team played five matches. These matches gave each player an opportunity to improve his strokes.

Coach Proctor has had the boys running the two and one half mile course daily. Our team of ten was one of the fourteen Class D entries in the State Meet at Frank¬ lin Field. Dave Tiffany made the best showing for Weston, placing twenty-second out of one hundred and fifty boys. In October against Hopedale we made our best showing of the year, coming within four points of first place. In November we were one of the participa¬ ting teams in a tri-town meet with Needham and Wal¬ pole at Needham. Joe Wager, who was Weston’s most consistent runner this year, and has been on the team since its formation, proved that “Experience is the best teacher” by coming iri a strong fourth against these two Class C teams.

S he attended Weston Public Schools and graduated from Weston High School in 1900 with six classmates. She then took a postgraduate course at Weston at which time she also taught under the direction of Mr. Eaton, one of the two teachers employed in the school at this time. Following this she attended Radcliffe for three years and graduated. In 1904 she returned to the Weston Schools again in the capacity of a teacher and was a member of the faculty for seven years. In 1912 she married Mr. George Cutting, Jr. also of Weston. During World War I Mr. Cutting ' s work as an engineer took them to Portsmith, Rhode Island. Here Mrs. Cutting worked for the At¬ lantic Corporation as an expediter of material supply. In 1921 her daughter Mary, who also graduated from Weston schools, was born. Also in the year 1921 Mr. Cutting was made Town Treasurer and Collector, and he kept this position until his death in 1942. Mrs. Cutting was appointed to fill out her husband ' s term. When the term expired the town elected Mrs. Cutting to the office of Treas¬ urer and Collector, Town Collector, and Retirement Board Officer. Because of Mrs. Cutting ' s ability, Weston has been noted for the way in which its taxes have been collected and the accuracy and neat condition of her books. That ' s why we find she is such a popular and busy woman today. THERESA BENOTTI ZAMPROGNO Mrs. Theresa Zamprogno is another alumna who was born and brought up here in Weston. She went through Weston Schools with such success that she was voted by her class the girl most likely to succeed. After graduating from high school in 1936 she attended Bos¬ ton University CLA where she obtained with honors both her Bach¬ elor ' s and Master ' s degrees. In 1946 Mrs. Zamprogno came to Weston to teach in the field of foreign language, and she is now serving on the faculty with three teachers who knew her as a pupil. Weston found itself very for¬ tunate in that, after Mrs. Zamprogno was, married, she remained a member of the staff. Mrs. Zamprogno found herself involved in many extra-curricular activities from the time she first started teaching. For years she was the advisor to the Cheering Squad. She was also very active in Rombas Affiliation, in fact was one of the prime movers in AflRIiation in the school. She now is the Guidance Counsellor for the girls in grades nine through eleven and this job is big and time consuming. Probably the activity she will be remembered for above all others is the cart¬ loads of time, help and energy she puts in on the Junior Prom to make it a success for each Junior Class in turn. As students of Weston we are proud to have a person like Mrs. Zamprogno as a teacher, and will be proud if we can become as good alumni as she. 70 INDEX TO OUR ADVERTISING eCv ttia-e eCOiect txaveiefui tteeded 4 ftvcce4.
