She is especially fond of baseball and has been a member of the girls’ softball team. “Jackie” Greenwood Ave. DONALD CHARLES JOHANSEN “All the world loves a lover.” Glee Club 2, 4; Assemblies 2, 3, 4; Baseball 2; Basket- ball 2; Ice Cream 3, 4; Asst.

Grace Old County Rd. 10 JANET MAE LAWTON “I chatter, chatter as I-go.” Play Prompter 3; Committees 3, 4; Ice Cream 3, 4; Librarian 4; Class Sec, 1; Class Day Speaker 4. Janet is the most popular girl of the Class. Although she is popular with all.the-opposite sex, her third finger on her left hand shows that her heart belongs to her one and only.

Dale, hailing from Oklahoma, has been unofficially designated as adjourner of class meetings since our freshman year. He is the impetuous member of our class, and a staunch defender of his constitutional rights, for he is often heard arguing the defensive. He proved his acting ability in both our plays.

A neat, well dressed young fellow is Russ. In school he is rather quiet and studious, but when he gets out of school we find that he has another side to his personality.

As cheerleader in her junior year she did a commendable job and as a partici- pant in our junior and senior plays she was tops. 17 “Woodie” Main Rd.

We'll leave a choice and treasured spot, To those who've guided us along. And those who've shared all joys and fears We'll remember ever in our song. 23 Gis Day UWA be As president of the graduating class of 1950, I welcome faculty, fellow schoolmates and friends to these class day exercises. We have now reached the goal for which we have worked so hard. The four years for some have passed too quickly, but for others at much to slow a pace. I do believe I can speak for all of us when I say we are all glad this day has arrived. We are glad because we have reached one milestone on the road of life; yet we are also sad because it means parting from one another. However, we shall look forward to meeting again as our paths cross in the future which lies ahead. I would like to pay tribute to the faculty for their never ending effort, They have stayed with us through the hard times as well as the pleasant ones. When we were down hearted they did their best to bring us up, and when we were doing well they were still there to give us that look of approval. We are now looking to the future which will be all the brighter because of the knowledge and experience we have -gained. We will go on through life with a warm remembrance of these school days which are now over. In parting we have a few words to say to each other. We invite you to listen and hope that you will enjoy our exercises planned for this day. HARVEY CUNNINGHAM 24 NOW YOU itt ee Meith teballide Cis istory - 1950 | We, the members of the graduating class of 1950, first met in Junior High School in September, 1944. At last we all felt as if we were nearing the completion of our studies. ‘Today as we prepare to receive our diplomas, we think back to that day and realize how little we knew lay ahead in the future. Now, as graduates, we are free to reminisce and perhaps be amused at the everyday problems which at the time seemed insurmountable obstacles in our path of greater learning. The two years we spent at junior high were uneventful as far as social gatherings are concerned, but we all grew to know each other and formed many lasting friendships. Probably the most memorable month in the minds of all the graduates is September, 1946, for this is when we entered W. H. S. as nervous, excited freshmen. Several of our masculine members received private and individual welcomes but were none the worse for the ceremony, thanks to the fondling care of the husky Seniors. Our home rooms were on the second floor, and it was there that we first knew the thrill of electing our own class officers. ‘Those who were chosen were: President — Anna Carvalho Vice President — Robert Archer Secretary — Janet Lawton Treasurer — Albert Vincent Lincoln Tripp and Mary Heaton were elected to serve on the Student Council. During the year Mrs. Bliss of the English and French Departments left her teaching duties and was replaced by Miss Helen Tripp. We also had a new math and science teacher in the person of Mr. Dolan. When we returned from our brief summer vacation in September, 1945, as sophomores, we found that we were still, socially speaking, in the shade. We did, however, have one advantage over the incoming freshmen and that was the fact that we did know the routine. ‘This factor gave us a feeling of superi- ority which we would not have traded for the world. ‘This year our home room was the downstairs study hall and here we chose as our officers: President — Robert Archer Vice President — Anna Carvalho Secretary — Jane Lees Treasurer — Albert Vincent Richard Manchester and Dorothy Sekonda were chosen as our representatives on the Student Council. There were a few changes made in the faculty that year. We welcomed Miss Ella Philpot who taught English and Latin in the place of Miss Vaughan who resigned. Also welcomed were Mr. Ford who later was replaced by Mr. Carigila, and Mr. Holtz who taught agricultu re. 26 Our junior year found us contributing our share to the social calendar in the form of two dances and a play. The dances ‘““The Harvest Hop” and “Junior Prom” were both successful and well received by the student body. The play, “Spring Fever’ under the direction of Miss Philpot was the financial success of the year which may be attributed to all around class spirit and coopera- tion. Those having leading parts were Dale Meadors, Agnes Waite and Thelma Wood. To represent the Junior Class, we chose as officers: President — Lincoln Tripp Treasurer — Albert Vincent Secretary — Agnes Waite Vice President — Anna Carvalho Members of the Student Council were Lucille Emond and Richard Manchester. Our class outing that year was a trip to Salem to see the “‘House of Seven Gables,” about which we had read in our English class. During the year James Hasson, Loretta Perry, and Alan Cieto left us, but three new members were added in the persons of Natalie Vieira, Harvey Cunningham, and Raymond Sherman. Two new additions to the faculty were witnessed in the arrival of Miss Monti, commercial teacher and Mr. Booth who replaced Miss McGorty and Mr. Holtz, respectively. After our summer vacation, we returned for our last year and we all were, to a man, completely transformed from the miserable freshmen of four years before into “mighty, respected, and envied seniors.” Our class officers for the year were: President — Harvey Cunningham Vice President — Russell Sherman Secretary — Agnes Waite Treasurer — Albert Vincent Representing the class on the Student Council were Lucille Emond, and Anna Carvalho. Representing the school at large were Alice Ponte and Lincoln Tripp. In November, we presented “Granny’s Millions,” a dramatization under the direction of Miss Philpot. Agnes Waite and Lincoln Tripp were the leading actress and actor. We were also the sponsors of three highly successful dances during the year which were the “Holly Hop,” the “Brownie Hop,” and our “Senior Prom” in June which proved to be a fitting climax to the entire school’s social calendar. This year Mr. Booth did not return, and we welcomed Mr. Shaw for Agriculture and Mr. Brightman for science in his stead. Whatever fame or misfortune may befall us in the future, it will never dim the memory of our four glorious years at Westport High School. GRACE LAWTON, RUSSELL SHERMAN AND RAYMOND SHERMAN 27 UE fo Auntors As a parting word in preparing to leave you our position as seniors, we wish to offer some advice. We hope that by following it, you will enjoy a happy and prosperous year as the new leaders of the school. We feel that we need not repeat this trite but none the less good advice to use the study hall as a place for study, to respect the faculty and to set a good example for the underclassmen. If you haven't learned to do this by now, it’s a little late to start; but it is better to learn late than never to learn at all. As supporters of school activities you need little encourage- ment, for you have proven yourselves to be the leaders in this respect. You have the qualities which are essential to success. ‘The strongest factor in determining success is your attitude toward your school and its members. We hope that yours will be a sportsmanlike one, characterized by consideration and regard for the other fellow’s viewpoint. May we suggest that you be more tactful in your criticisms? Learn to cooperate and to conduct unified class meetings, which will be more orderly than ours have been. In closing may we wish you happiness and satisfaction in your final year. We hope that you will make the most of it by taking advantage of every opportunity given for self-improvement and for the general welfare of the school.

GIRLS’ BASKETBALL es Dapes dagepretert First row: Barbara Borden, Joyce Palmer, Susanne Buckley, Irene Mendes (Cap.), Phyllis Gaudreau, Joyce Butts, Lorraine Renaud. Second row: Virginia Viera, (manager), Theresa Bouchard, Phyllis Hancock, Shirley Taylor, Elaine DeAndrade, Marilyn Curtis, Margaret Kirkwood, Barbara Faria, Miss Monti, (coach). Our girls’ basketball team had a successful season this year. Swamping Bristol Aggies with our second team playing nearly all through the game gave us the spirit we needed. Our last game of the season was with Case, who we thought were not hard to beat, but we soon found out differently. We had to fight in order to win. All the players played good ball. They really showed enthusiasm in every game. Irene Mendes, captain and center forward, is the only one leaving this year. Susanne Buckley, who was converted from a guard to a foward, is very capable of occupying the vacancy left by Irene. Our team, managers, and players offer to Miss Mary Monti their thanks for the support she gave the team. We appreciate the fact that we were able to have such a capable coach. 40 BOYS’ BASKETBALL First row: Edward Sharples, (Manager), Philip Faria, Richard Saunders, John Rego, George Rapoza, Allan Webb, Reginald Dion, (Manager). Second row: Mr. Cariglia (coach), Lawrence Cornell, Paul Branch, Norman Blanchette, Joseph Willette, Francis Pettengill, Dean Manchester, Roland Johnson, Howard White, Howard Gifford. Absent when picture was taken — ‘Thomas Hancock, Joseph Medeiros, and John Silva. The basketball team this year was comprised chiefly of Juniors and Freshmen. With few exceptions, the Javees were composed of Freshmen Westport’s first win was at the expense of Dighton. The team followed -with two victories over Case, another win over Dighton, and a triumph over Bristol Aggies. ‘The team reached its peak with its second victory over Case. Coach Cariglia showed his sportsmanship by freely substituting after running up a large lead at halftime. The mainstays of the team proved to be Joe Medeiros and Franny Petten- gill. Franny played center, and Joe played forward. They were neck and neck all season for team scoring honors. Pettengill finally won out, with 129 points to 124 points. Norm Blanchette teamed with Medeiros at the other forward post, and hit the basket consistently. Johnny Silva and Tom Hancock, the guards, were adept at collecting rebounds and hitting from the outside. Silva, handicapped by his small stature, overcame his deficiency with his natural ability. Two members of the basketball team were selected for the second team of the Herald News All-Naragansett League Basketball Team of 1949-50, namely: Franny Pettengill, and Joe Medeiros. The team managers, players and the pupils of Westport High extend their congratulations to Mr. Cariglia upon his selection as Coach of the Year. Mr. Cariglia was awarded this title because of the way in which he developed his players to form the most improved team in the League. 4} ACTIVITIES : 42 CLASS PROPHECY Being able to foretell the future is no easy task. We found this out after being given the assignment of writing the Class Prophecy. So we sent to New York for a crystal ball and today we are going to do our best to delve into the deep, dark future to see what our classmates will be doing in 1960. I think we'd better dust the crystal ball off first. A good idea. Now let's see. The directions said to tap it gently. Oh look! It’s the new high school. That looks like the principal’s office coming into focus. And isn’t that Bob Lees sitting behind the desk? Wow! Look at the blond on his lap. Whoops! ‘The crystal ball almost collapsed. Why it’s Anna Carvalho experimenting in the chemistry lab. Somebody must have spiked her amorphous crystals with T. N. T. There’s Bob Archer. You'd hardly recognize him with the beard and long hair. He’s evidently trying to drill the expansion of gases into his pupil’s heads. And look, there’s Natalie. She’s running an elevator. Still up to her old slow-motion tricks. What's that sign say? Oh yes, “Welcome to Billious, Oklahoma, Home of Senator D. V. Meadors.” I wonder if he’ll adjourn Congress as punctually as he used to adjourn our class meetings? i This must be somewhere in Africa. Isn’t that Agnes Waite standing there? Guess she’s trying to convert the natives. And look, that other one with the “Prose and Poetry” book. It’s Lydia Rose trying to teach the poor little aborigines epic poetry. Here’s an attorney's shingle that reads, “Piffleheimer, Piffleheimer, Piffle- heimer, and Emond. Looks as though Lucille finally passed the bar exams after all. Gee whiz, did you see that car flash by? I just caught a glimpse of the driver. It was Donald Johansen and there was a sign on the rear of the car that read “Director-Department of Driver Education, Westport High School.” This next vision looks kind of foggy. No wonder! I think it’s Irene taking her Olympic track team for a sprint. What a beautiful lawn. And there’s Dorothy Sekonda pushing an old fogey around in a wheel chair. Guess she married a millionaire and is nursing him back to health. Say she looks familiar. Yes, it’s Joanne Manchester. She must have quite a job keeping those books straight in that stuffy old library. 43 Looks like there is a piece of paper obscuring our view. It’s a newspaper dated 1960. One of the captions reads, ‘““Mrs. Milton Carpenter is Mother of Fifth set of Triplets. And under that there’s an ad that reads, ‘““Buy your cosmetics and lotions from R. G. Pacheco, your friendly traveling saleswoman.”’ Why, the paper has disappeared and there’s a big derrick with a sign that says, ‘J. Rodrigues Destruction Company, You Make It We Break It.” Did you see that?) That, folks, was Russ Sherman in his new Hydrogen- fired plane. Bet he was going 60 light years an hour. He’s landing at that super service station over there with the sign that says, “Oily Gassy Service Station-Ralph Macomber, Prop.” And isn’t that Thelma Wood getting out of Russ’ plane? She’s wearing three wedding rings. Bet she’s trying for number four. I wish I could read what that theater marquee says. It’s a little clearer now. Oh yes, “Collins and Vincent, Adagio Team, Featuring modern and old- fashioned dancing.” Goodness, this next picture looks like a wrestling arena and there’s Alice Ponte holding her opponent on the mat. And here comes a nurse to the rescue. Why it’s Grace Lawton carrying a Satchel that from the sig on it, must belong to “Dr. Raymond Sherman, Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist.” The press is right on the scene too. There’s Jackie Forand with her press card and her shorthand pad ready to take down the latest gossip. Oh oh, the scene has changed again. That place looks like the Acoaxet Country Club and isn’t that Edith Cabral teeing off? And look who’s carrying her golf clubs, Harvey Cunningham! Look at all the kids! And there’s Gerry; she’s another unfortunate member of our class who must have gotten married. And there you are, Jane, surrounded by French poodles and diamond chandeliers. Guess you haven't done too badly for yourself. Look at Linc. All those chorus girls around him. He must be managing the Follies in New York or something. And another sign that says, “We Design Anything, Big Houses, Little Houses, Bridges Et Cetera — Richard Manchester, Architect. Wait a minute, there’s something else coming into view. ‘““To the Class of 1950 — You will have success in everything that you do.” Jane Lees Richard Manchester Lincoln Tripp 44 Hard At Work Can You Read That? seseaems LiNiih 1 et Poetically Inclined Looking Back 45 eet em i ee | he Losing of Oy.
