CROSS HIGH SCHOOL New Ha cn Connecucut Volume XXXI DEDICATION To you, MRS. MARY GILLIGAN, loyal, amiable, and competent teacher, we, the class of nineteen hundred fifty-one, dedicate our class book. Your familiarity with the prob- lems of youth made you their genial friend and helpful counselor. May the memories of many fruitful years of devoted service to young people bring you satisfaction and happiness in the years to come. Dear Member! of the Gmduatmg Class of 1951 About four hundred of you are stepping out of this school into the world of Today. You have looked forward to your graduation with high hopes and with great anticipation. Some of you will go on to collegeg others will continue their formal education in some other wayg some others will join the ranks of the work-a-day world. Your high school education is just the beginning. The stern realities of life are facing you. Youth is in your favor, and all of life lies ahead of you. You have gained a wealth of knowledge from your studies, you have received advice from your teachers and counselors. I know that you will be a credit to your school, to your parents, and to your teachers. I wish you all the best of luck, the greatest success and much happiness. Mary Rose Gilligan 4 AT THE CROSSROADS You to the left and I to the riht, For the ways of men must sever - And it well may be for a day and a night, And it well may be forever. But whether we meet or whether we part CFor our ways are past our knowingj , A pledge from the heart to its fellow heart On the ways we all are going! Here's luck! For we know not where we are going. Richard Hovey Thirty years ago, Commercial High School was organized for the purpose of educating boys and girls who wished to take the business and commercial road of life. All students desiring the college preparatory or nursing course attended Commercials neighbor, Hillhouse High School. In 1949 the Board of Education decided to give both schools equal educational opportunities, in other words, the same curriculum. This change necessitated a great alteration of class rooms, schedules, and equipment, and the introduction of work-shop, laboratories, and other specialized rooms. Naturally, under these changed conditions the name, Commercial High, could not be kept. The Board of Education asked the students and public to submit names for the new school. After much consideration, the Board decided upon the name Wilbur L. Cross High School in honor of the great scholar, educator, author, and statesman. Although he came from a family of small means, Mr. Cross became a teacher, a professor of English at the Sheffield Scientific School, Yale University, the dean of the Yale Graduate School, and finally rose to the high ofiice of Governor of Connecticut, which he held for four terms. His greatest aims in life were to giveieveryone the opportunity to have a formal education, and to improve the educational standards, therefore, it is hoped that this year's graduating class and all those of future years will, by fulfilling his aspirations, and high humanistic ideals, be able to pay tribute to this great man, Wilbur Lucius Cross. if l l 4 Al.ii ff' 'f 'l il' ' . 5 wa , f L, .,,1.

McKee FOREWGRD The Editorial, Business, and Art Boards present to you, the class of 1951, the second edition of the Wilbur L. Cross Classbook. This volume is the first to bear the title, Crossroads, This title was chosen to replace Sachem, the name which headed many classbooks of Commercial High School. This title was chosen for two reasons. First, it commemorates the man for whom the school was renamed. Secondly, it reminds us that we have come to a decisive moment in our lives. Literally, we are at the cross- roads of life. We are at the crossroads not only of our own lives but also of the world. Unrest and confusion beset the world of today and important decisions must be made to determine whether tyrants or free men shall rule. We, as citizens of tomorrow, must aid in making that decision. For the first time in the history of the school, students will graduate who have majored in the technical arts, music, nursing, and college preparatory courses. These students must build a reputation for Wilbur Cross not only in the various universities and colleges which some will attend, but also in the many factories, hospitals, and business offices where others will be employed. As a comprehensive high school Wilbur Cross has yet to set its standards and prove itself second to none among the high schools of the country. However, with the caliber of Cross's students being what it is, we should have little trouble establishing a fine record for the school. We have tried to establish this edition of Crossroads as a standard which can be followed by the many editions to follow. We hope in the years to come this book will recall memories not only of the school, but also of the many delightful hours which we enjoyed throughout our high school days. Only you, looking over your book in future years, can tell us if Crossroads is a success. faculty nm I -1 .-?1Pi+2t?ie1 1 is-if ' QLZYQ X owjy ' ' , 1 A ,ii ' . , Q5 ART--. 15 5 E -...- Rui -fi 'S ' ,P 4 'E' - ,P , Ti .

Having once acquired a firm grasp on the skills essential both to oral and to Written communication and a genuine appreciation for the various types of literature, the student may be certain of a reasonable measure of success in his further studies and an immeasurable amount of pleasure among good books during his leisure hours.

Libby - X HISTORY In these critical times, when democracy is so imperiled, when forces exist which are endeavoring to wrest liberty from our grasp, when the whole world is tottering on the brink of a terrible conflict between two ideologies, perhaps no department has a more important task than the History Department, which helps us to understand the problems of the world, and cohsequently, democracy itself. Through the study of World History, United States History, Modern History, Problems of Democracy, and Economics, we become acquainted with the crises which have confronted people of other times and lands, and also with the handling of them. An understanding of the age-old difiiculties with which man has had to cope gives one a perspective with which to meet new ones. We learn the unimportance of trivial matters, in comparison with the magnitude of serious prob- lems, and with this background of knowledge we are able to meet more intelligently the crises of the present. The study of history is not, then, a ghost of the past, but rather a living, real force in the present which will help to smooth the road to the future.

Mager The Business Department of Wilbur Cross High School provides a personal-use business education for all pupils enrolled in the business course and a specialized vocational business education for those who elect specihc training such as is received in bookkeeping, stenography, retail selling, and clerical practice. During the terminal years, the vocational aspects of business are stressed. The program is organized to give every business pupil and some non-vocational pupils one or more marketable skills with specific job training designed to enable him to obtain an initial position and advance himself therein. In order to insure the training of competent workers, pupils are encouraged to take courses related to their areas of specialization. Earning a family living involves more than merely holding an initial position. It is not our intention to prepare pupils for initial positions only. We include much that will have promotional value later. We expect our graduates not only to obtain an initial contact, but also to advance to more responsible positions. Capacity to advance involves a certain occupational versatility and suflicient business back- ground to make occupational readjustments. Therefore, bookkeeping and social business subjects, such as business law and business organ- ization, are included in our program to point the way to managerial positions and other better paying occupations.

Gregory Marguerite E. McKay MATHEMATICS Mathematic: has become increasingly important through the years since mathematics is the basis of all science. It is also the foundation upon which music, engineering, and most trades are based. The constant demand for scientists today has increased the important of mathematics. The mathematics department of Wilbur Cross High School affords a wide choice of subjects to the student. The knowledge acquired in this course prepares one for entering all fields per- taining to math. One receives instruction in college math, math for trades, and general math. This department endeavors not only to expose the student to the factual value of math, but also to its cultural value. The department has succeeded in making SCIENCE Science today, more than ever before, assumes a major role in the development of the world. Today we live in a scientific age, the greatest in all history. Scientific progress is so rapid that it is impossible for any one person to keep up with all the new developments. Our world and way of life are threatened. The potentialities of nuclear energy as an agent of destruction have already been forcefully demonstrated. We must apply this development to future peace and the benefit of mankind rather than to its destruction. The science department, through its courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and pre-flight aeronautics is endeavoring to prepare its students for their place in this scientific age. v r Mary E.

It is their duty to aid the student in choosing his course wisely, in overcoming any difiiculties and uncertainties which he may have, and to help him in making his high school days pleasurable. It is also the duty of this department to familiarize the student with his weak spots and with the occupations for which he is best suited or intends to follow. This department is a comparatively new one in most schools and is becoming of increasing importance to the student. AIN Marguerite G. Healy Henry A. Wuestefeld Eleanor F. Deegan tg? FOREIGN LANGUAGE Today the world is striving for international understanding. To achieve this purpose the study of foreign languages is indispensable. At Wilbur Cross High School it is possible for a student to acquire a knowledge of French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Latin. With the completion of his secondary education, the student has gained a thorough foundation in grammar together with the ability to com- prehend and write the foreign language.gNaturally the benefits to be derived from the study of a foreign language increase in direct propor- tion to the number of years spent upon itg but once acquired, the language becomes a source of pleasure and profit for all those who can make use of it. Foreign languages aid the purposes of industry and commerceg they are required for scientific information and re- searchg they are an instrument of mental discipline and of cultureg they provide a valuable means for the wholesome use of leisure. In fact, they are needed to gather and disseminate that more intimate knowledge of foreign countries which is necessary for the wise conduct of affairs by a democratic people. . ss 4 16 .' x A Rose F.

D PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Wilbur Cross physical education department endeavors to prepare the student for the wise use of leisure time in his adult life. It seeks to provide whole- some physical activities aided by health examinations and expert supervision. Our plan is to encourage every able boy and girl in the school to become an active participant in some sort of athletic endeavor. This we have accomplished through our intramural and varsity programs. In addition to our actual competitive games, we have social and country dancing for all classes, ice-skating for girls, and swimming for both boys and girls, at the New Haven Boys' Club and at the Y.

Volpicelli A well organized school requires the services of many specialists in order to operate efficiently and provide for the comfort and health of its students. The building must be kept clean and attractive and have proper lighting and A Q ventilation. The custodian's job is never done, for each day 1400 faculty and Q students proceed to undo all that has been so carefully done. To guard the student's health, a nurse is ever present. She not only checks the daily ills of the students, but also keeps a complete permanent record of every boy and girl. It is under her supervision that every year each student has an eye and ear test and a chest X-ray. When the school was reorganized and the longer day introduced, our cafeteria was rebuilt making it possible to serve hot lunches. Students can now obtain a hot home-cooked meal, consisting of meat, vegetables, milk, bread and butter, and a dessert. Although turkey dinners, pies, and cakes are frequently featured, the ever-popular submarine sandwich is always present. One may also . i Dorothy R. Dick choose from a variety of other items such as soups, salads, and fresh fruit. ' . Not the least important of the routine tasks of the school is the keeping of . the records. Each student has a permanent record containing an account of his 1 i attendance, grades, and other important information. These sheets are referred 0' 4 to when students are recommended for employment or entrance to college. h V H Records - reports - bulletins - letters, all at once and interrupted by telephone ij y K calls and students coming and going - the clerks have a busy time.

You are a talented classg a class with whom it has been a pleasure and a satisfaction to live and work. I am conhdent that wherever your lives may be lived you will fill your places nobly. In home, in business, in society, in personal life, you will be an honor to yourselves. As you leave Cross High School, you take with you my hearty good wishes for your individual futures and my real expectation that you will each succeed. I am certain this world of ours will feel your influence for great good. MRS.

C laxrmater : We are about to go our separate ways. Some of us have chosen this school, and others because of the new policy of two general high schools, have come from Hillhouse to the newly named Wilbur Cross. But we shall all be alumni of Wilbur Cross and also of the class of 1951, of different national and racial backgrounds, all striving to achieve personal success. But our interests must go beyond mere personal success. Our generation must try to solve the many problems confronting the world of today. Boys have already left us to help solve the present problem in Korea. Wilbur Cross graduates must do their share. Wilbur Cross is our Alma Mater. We cannot leave our school without expressing our appreciation of all the opportunities that have been offered us - of our courses of study, of our extra curricular activities, of our chances to form lasting friendships, and especially of the faculty members who have been interested in our progress. I want to thank my fellow officers - Henry Pascarella, Jeanne Roche, james Simpson for their cooperation throughout our senior year. S incerely, Larry CLASS MOTTO FIAT LUX Let there be light.

There were so many things for us to do that before we knew it, it was Easter and then the month of june. Everyone of us burrowed his head in his books, trying to study for the terrible final exams. JUNE Dear Diary, Today marked the close of our freshman year and a wonderful year it was. We are looking forward to three more years as nice as this one. 1948 - 1949 SEPTEMBER Deary Diary, Today we entered high school as sophomores. We were no longer anxious and a bit scared as we had been the year before. After all, hadn't we been through a whole year of high school? Remember how we resolved to treat the new freshmen just as we had been treated? 1947 - 1948 SEPTEMBER Dear Diary, We'll never forget that lovely autumn day, now four years distant, when we became high school students. We were a crowd of bobby-soxed girls and flashily dressed boys, standing in groups chattering and anxiously awaiting the beginning of our first day as freshmen. We'll never forget the seniors, juniors, and sophomores who made life as miserable as they could for us. Nor will we forget the trouble we had trying to find our way from class to class. OCTOBER Dear Diary, Today we received our first report cards as freshmen. What a time we had comparing grades and trying to find someone who had received a better grade than C in English. NOVEMBER, DECEMBER Dear Diary, Thanksgiving vacation came so soon and we all found ourselves looking forward to the wonderful football game at the Yale Bowl. Then Christmas vacation was upon us with all the festivities we could ask for. There was the wonderful Christmas assembly and then the whole week off. t' . p S 4.4- v.. A Dear Diary, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER Dear Diary, These months were really nice ones. Our foot- ball and basketball teams had a retty fair season P , and how we looked forward again to that Thanks- giving game. DECEMBER Dear Diary, Again the joyful preparations for Christmas took place. The assembly put on by the dramatic club was a beautiful one and it filled us with that Christmas spirit. JUNE We just can't figure out where the months have gone. We were so busy following baseball and the other spring sports and trying to bring that C in English up to an A , that when we looked up, we were right in the middle of the month of june.

The biggest of these was the change of schools. Commercial High School was renamed Wilbur Cross and the entire curriculum was changed. Many of us were transferred from other schools to the new Wilbur Cross. We all left friends behind us in this transfer, but new ones were gained at Cross and we settled down to enjoy our year in the new school. OCTOBER, NOVEMBER Dear Diary, Football took the spotlight during these months. We all became incited with school spirit and went all out to cheer our team to victory. Many of our junior boys made the team including Avallone, Viscio, Kottage, Simpson, and Walters. DECEMBER Dear Diary, This month marked the opening of the basketball season and our new basketball team went all out to win. Remember the wonderful dance we had in the gymnasium the second of this month? Then came the impressive ceremony in our assembly which marked the ofiicial rededication of Wilbur Cross. The Probus Club presented us with a beautiful flag bear- ing rhe new school seal and motto. And we'll never forget the enjoyable Christmas play put on by Masque and Gavel, our dramatic club.

And so ended our junior year at Wilbur Cross High School. We were now full-fledged upper-classmen. 1950-1951 SEPTEMBER Dear Diary, Seniors! At last we were dignified seniors. By this time we were all reconciled to the change in the schools and we started right in to make our senior year the happiest. OCTOBER Dear Diary, Again it was election time and again came the near chaos of campaigning. Finally, we went to the polls . Larry Spinello repeated his victory of the previous year. His cabinet consisted of Henry Pas- carella, Jeanne Roche, Jimmy Simpson, and Dick Caprio. Preparations for our classbook began during this month and Janet Brenner was elected editor-in- chief of the Wilbur Cross News. JANUARY, FEBRUARY Dear Diary, Our basketball team had a good season and Avallone and De Tallo shone on the courts. The campaigning for our junior election took place dur- ing February. This was the first real election we had ever had and didn't we have a grand time making postens and campaign buttons. MARCH Dear Diary, An oratorical contest was held last week on the topic of Brotherhood . Joe Dawes, a sophomore, walked off with first prize. We held our elections this week and Larry Spinello was voted to the presi- xdency. Under him were Henry Pascarella, Allen Wyllie, and jimmy Simpson. All boys! APRIL, MAY Dear Diary, The cry Batter up marked the opening of the baseball season. Eager candidates tried their luck on the diamond. Avallone shone in the infield and For- line on the mound. We had a perfectly lovely prom on May 5 at the Edgewood Club. It was truly Some Enchanted Evening. Our tennis team closed an un- defeated season, beating both Hillhouse and Hamden. The Fenn twins starred on this team. 2 if A11 an J viral NOVEMBER, DECEMBER Dear Diary, During November we had many visitors from the different industries who had returned the visit made by our teachers the previous year. At our Sports dance, which was held at Troup junior High School, Joe Farina and Jeanne Roche were elected the king and queen of sports. We had the customary preparations for Christmas and we all looked for- ward to the week's vacation. JANUARY Dear Diary, Our basketball team enjoyed a pretty fair sea- son this year. Although we lost to West Haven, we beat Hamden. Then came the minstrel. Black faces, corny jokes, and swing music all contributed to one of the most enjoyable shows ever put on at Cross. FEBRUARY, MARCH Dear Diary, Valentir1e's Day and what could be more appro- priate than a Valentine's dance? Red hearts, lace, and white cupids changed the gymnasium into the perfect setting for this dance. And who can forget the smell of grease paint, the colorful costumes, and the gay music of Gilbert and Sullivan's Gondoliers ? f APRIL, MAY Dear Diary, April marked the opening of the spring sports program and once again the cry Batter up could be heard over the baseball diamond. The future DiMaggios and Robinsons took their positions on the field. The month of May was highlighted by the wonderful promenade at the Lawn Club. The efforts of Dick Caprio and his committee made it a glorious evening, one we will not soon forget. And what were the strange sounds coming from the assembly hall every morning during these past months? Why, it was the senior chorus practicing for graduation. JUNE Dear Diary, Here it was, June. The four years which we thought would pass so slowly, were gone and we wondered how they could have slipped by. There we were, sitting in the auditorium for our class day exercises. Peter Burkholder was class day chairman. Then it was june fifteenth and we were in Woolsey Hall. In a very short time we would leave school and go our separate ways. We were just a bit sad as we received our diplomas and said goodby to four years of fun and friendship. And each of us made a silent resolution that we would try to make Wilbur Cross proud of the class of 1951.

The Senior Executive Board, which is composed of one member from each senior homeroom is the elected senior group formed for the purpose of working with the faculty for' the betterment of the class and the school. At the bi-weekly meetings the following subjects were brought up for discussion: Good grooming, courtesy, self-respect, corridor passing, conduct in the cafeteria and at the assemblies, methods of improving the tardiness record, and class problems. These meetings were followed by a further discussion in the homerooms. The class elections and the Valentine Dance were sponsored by this group. Repre- sentatives of the Senior Executive Board took an active part in the discussions on student government held at Hamden Hall and Hopkins Grammar School.

The Junior Executive Board had a very busy year. Various campaigns were conducted for the improve- ment of the school, with homeroom discussions by the representatives on such topics as, orderly passing, clean-up, and respect. The first social sponsored by the junior Executive Board was a dance which we called the Junior Jubilee, with Rocco DeLandra as chairman. Due to the ardent cooperation of the faculty and the Junior class the affair was a huge success. The board was then asked to take charge of the decorations for the school sports dance. Those in charge were: Mary Romano, Ruth Taft, Janette Northrop, Marion Schmidt, Beverly Shaw, George Jensen, and Mark DeNegre. During vacation a tour was made. through the two largest Bridgeport High Schools in order to obtain information about the student government. Those who made the trip were: Irving DeTor1o, Hilda Rag- ozzino, Mark DeNegre, Beverly Shaw, and Hey- ward Myers. On February 2, the big event of our junior year came to a close, the junior class elections. Mark DeNegre was elected president, Irving DeToro, vice- president, the girl to hold the secretarial position was Hilda Ragozzino, and Marion Schmidt was elected treasurer. The evening of April 13 brought to a close all of the Junior class social activities. On this night the Junior Class Prom was held. Beverly Shaw was elected to serve as chairman and Heyward Myers was chosen as her assistant. Due to the wonderful turnout the junior Prom was the greatest social function the Junior class had ever sponsored.

This past year the junior Red Cross, under the capable leadership of Miss Alice Bishop, faculty advisor, and Martin Dockman, student president, has succeeded in foster- ing many worthy projects. One hundred and nine Red Cross boxes for children overseas were filled and flags flown during the Red Cross drive by Connecticut Company buses were made at Wilbur Cross under the supervision of Mr. Robert Allen, art supervisor. Contributions were made by the entire school for service kits, which were given to boys leaving for military service. The kits contained writing paper, a pen, toothbrush, toothpaste, playing cards, and lifesavers. Blood donor cards were given out to all students, and were filled in by parents who felt they were able to donate blood, which someday might save the life of a serviceman. We feel that the students have done a fine job in helping the national Red Cross in their worthy projects. ' PACKING RED CROSS BOXES Left to Right: Taft, Apuzzo, Miss Bishop, Claffey, Andrews.

THE CREDO OF PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY MY TRUSTEESHIP IN HUMAN DESTINY I am the custodian of the years, Trustee of all that man has been and done, And the hostage of his triumphant dreams. My body bears the scars of his defeats, The glory and the beauty of his strength, And the divine mystery of his life. My mind is his measuring of the stars, And my soul his grasp of the Infinite. I must so live today that tomorrow All they who mark my steps may truly say, Thou hast well-borne our priceless heritage . And if in me man's hope be larger grown, His spirit in understanding more free, Far off eternity will seem more vast. Edward A.

Members of Masque and Gavel serve as the production staff for the annual operetta taking charge of costumes and makeup, sets and lighting, as well as manage- ment. Try-outs take place in the fall, and election of officers is held in the spring. Masque and Gavel speakers represent the school in all oratorical func- tions. CHRISTMAS PLAY Christmas in Many Lands was the theme of the Christmas assembly. Choral selections from different countries were presented by the Glee Club under the direction of Mrs. Rexford. The Polish National dance, The Krakow, was pnesented by a group of dancers, and an interpretive ballet, Christmas in Killarney , featured Edith White. The program concluded with a tableau of the Nativity. 3 V s a 4 .., istuggags...

Strains of music were always heard coming from the assembly hall, either a rehearsal from the annual operetta, The Gondoliers, directed by Mrs. Mary Clark, and Mrs. Honora Rexford, or a frequent soloist rehearsing for the minstrel show, the proceeds from which paid for new band uniforms. Mr. Harry Schyde formed an inter-school chorus, composed of students from Wilbur Cross and Hillhouse, whose resounding baritones and spiraling sopranos thrilled their audiences.

The Dixieland Six, all members of the school band, capably directed by Miss Ellen Celentano, were quite successful as performers on Ted Mack's Original Amateur Hour. Our assemblies could not have been quite so successful, if it had not been for the school orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Rexfond. We think that Well earned praise ought to be bestowed upon Mrs. Rexford, Miss Celentano, and Mr. Schyde, for their successful efforts to make Wilbur Cross musically- minded. Mr. Harry Hadley Schyde gives last minute briefing to the cast of the Inter-High School Music Festival sponsored by the New Haven Lions' Club. ,Q School life '6 Tom-:amcf CF?oss News 9 in I Q 0, , , A lla W JH. ,,,- -',4, 1 glam?-'-f 'xe,+q35 w f- QX Xffgfef . 1- .5 403203 fyfirigf X :-' 1 V .: 1 I 1 A . -- - 49 affvnni lE - OE E I Q 1 xg' r YJ' r' f 4' XA: 1, 0 shy , 'gnu 11 .4 1. .

There's a fate in love and a fate in fight, And the best of us all go under - And whether we're wrong or whether we're right, We win, sometimes, to our wonder. Here's luck! That we may not yet go under! We, the class of 1951, at this point would like to pay tribute to a good friend, teacher, and coach, Mr. Ralph Walker. Mr. Walker was unable to con- tinue in this triple capacity this year because of ill health. Down through the many years in which he served Commercial and Wilbur Cross High School he has been well liked by all. Because of his wonder- ful personality he became a fast friend and willing advisor of many students. By his great ability of inspiring confidence and letting the boys make many of their own decisions on the field, Mr. Walker turned many mediocre teams into championship contenders. Among the many who rose to great heights after graduation, but got their start under Mr. Walker are Ralph Dondi, U. S. Olympic Hockey star, and Richard Bittner, professional goalie. In the field of baseball we have the former N. Y. Giant player after whom the New Haven Little League has been named, the late Eddie Red Sheehan. Also Eddie Banahan and Marshall Brooks, captains of Providence College baseball teams. Johnny White, Ernie Collins, Kenny Schramm, and Mike Giovanni who played for various Major League Farm Clubs. Turning to football we find George Wheeler, all- stater and professional star, johnny Higgins, captain of Villanovag Ray Tellier, another all-state man, and Lou Coluccig both of whom played for Arnold Col- Richard Hovey lege and are now teaching at Cross. Rounding out the abbreviated list is Luke Luchetti, a fencing and track star at Seton Hall College. In saying farewell we leave Mr. Walker with our best wishes for a long, happy life and many thanks for all he has done to uphold and augment the reputation of our school. MR.

The Crimson and White gridiron machine, playing its Hrst year under coaches Ray Tellier and Chuck Casey, finished its season with a record of three victories and six defeats. The small Toby eleven engaged such gridiron greats as West Haven, Crosby, New Britain, Hillhouse, and Warren Harding. The Governors of Wilbur Cross, led by Captain Walt Radziszewski, opened the season with their annual night contest against Warren Harding at Bridgeport. Although beaten 27-0 the Governors held their bigger and more experienced opponents in check throughout the contest. Howver, long touchdown runs by Gee and Spataro made the difference. Later in the season, our boys came home to Bowen Field where they lost to Hillhouse 19-7. For a time it looked as if an upset were in the making as Cross led at half time 7-6. In the second half the much larger Bendermen wore out the Tobies and went on to victory. On the road once again, Cross traveled to Waterbury where they humbled a huge Leavenworth squad 9-0. The backfield led by Walters, Ricciuti, and Myers reeled off long gains. Tackle Dick Viscio, a stalwart in the center of the line, was lost for most of the season with a broken hand. Staying on the road the Tobies lost to a powerful New Britain team 39-6. It was a sad Saturday for our boys who were never really in the ball game. ,, .F . t . 1m11 Q JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL First Row: Left to Right Briganti, Petrucci, Abitello, Carrano, Zettergren, Gogliettino Ahern Ruocco.

Spinello scored in the first period after taking a hand 05 from Aval- lone. In the second period Marrone scored a touchdown on a pass from Avallone. The final tally was 12-6. At Exhibition Stadium Cross bowed to a good West Haven outfit 25-7. Leadin 7-6 at the three quarter mark the Tobies were crushed under West -1 '1 ff: 8 ' i Haven's nineteen point, fourth period barrage. A week later the Governors registered their third victory by beating Naugatuck at Bowen Field. Walters, Ricciuti, and Dennison led the boys to this 7-6 win. Moving on to Waterbury, Cross lost to a surprising Crosby eleven 46-7. The Governors ended the campaign with a 25-0 defeat at the hands of once-beaten Hamden. Down 7-0 at half time, it appeared that Cross might ?vertake the Green Dragons, but two quick touchdowns sealed the Governor's ate. This year Cross placed two men on the Honorable Mention List in the past-season selection of the All-State eleven. Captain Walt Radziszewski and Harry Klarrnan were the boys chosen. Since most of the varsity is graduating in june, next year's team will be built around a nucleus of returning Sophomores. Vin Landisio and Ed Marrone have been elected co-captains for the corning season. FOOTBALL Cross ................,.....,............. Harding Cross ....... Hillhouse Cross ..,....

The Wilbur Cross booters, entering their second season of com- petition, played a ten game schedule. Led by Co-Captains Joe Schappa and John Swantek the Tobies played home and home engagements with the Yale Frosh, Hopkins, Hillhouse, Milford Prep and West Haven. Although the record shows only one victory, one tie, and eight defeats, this club made up primarily of returning veterans was a much more balanced outfit than last year's team. The Crimson and White usually fielded a starting lineup of Schappa, Rieger, Ciemier, Le Gates, Nester and Inguiggato across the line, with Swantek, Irmer, Henderson, Porto, Emanuelson, and Renkewitz in the backlield. The most interesting games were the two Hillhouse contests which the Blue and White won by identical scores of 1-Og and the second West Haven game in which the West Shoremen tied the score at 1-1, with only three seconds left to play. Although his boys won only one game Coach Colucci doubts that he will ever have another team greater in spirit or ability. kisiutf ,-fl' '.

The Cross sextet displayed an unexpected power and hustle which surprised the many in attendance and bode ill for the District Hockey League kingpins. Although battling on fairly even footing, the Tobies lost to Hamden 2-0. The second Greenie goal was scored with only six seconds remaining in the contest. Cross played a strong West Haven team on even terms in a game which ended in a O-0 deadlock. In their best show- ing of the evening the Governors impressed many. Although the Tobies were unable to keep up this sharp pace throughout the District League schedule, which consisted of nine -games, they provided many thrills for the spectators. The club was kept constantly on the go by hard fighting Captain john Mc- Donald and hustling Eddie Donohueg with some great defensive work turned in by Scotty Henderson who also filled in at right wing. The Cross sextet compiled its best record in the three game series with Hillhouse. They lost to the Blue and White by a 4-3 count, but rebounded to a 3-2 win and a 1-1 tie in the following contests. ,,- - - , ..- s. QQLY' 9 E ,,,..

Hockey enthusiasts are looking forward to next season's sextet which will feature many returning veterans. In order to procure added experience for these boys, Coach Ray Tellier scheduled a series of past season encounters with various clubs from the surrounding area. The 1951-52 hockey team will be led by Captain Bill Donohue who led the Toby scorers for the second consecutive season. HOCKEY Cross ,........,.....

The 1950-51 Wilbur Cross basketball team, although not meeting pre-season expectations, sported a record of seven victories and ten defeats. Plagued by minor injuries the Degnanmen were unable to put together a consistent winning combination until late in the season. After dropping their opening game to New Britain, the Tobies returned to New Haven and outclassed a star-studded Alumni quintet 76-64. This was one of the highest scoring games ever played in the Cross gymnasium. The Cross cagers dropped a brace of games to the sur- prisingly strong Lavender of Ansonia. However, the Gover- nors returned to the winning ways with a pair of victories over Leavenworth. They downed the Waterbury outfit by margins of five and twenty points respectively. In a nip and tuck Armory battle our hardwood representa- tives took the measuue of Hamden in a real thriller. The lead changed hands many times in the second half with the two teams matching each other basket for basket. A very effective freeze in the final minute insured the Tobies of a 54-53 victory. f f . AE In bowing to Hillhouse twice the Cross hoopsters were defeated by one of the highest scoring aggregations ever to represent the Blue and White. They were unable to cope with the marvelous defense coupled with a great oifense which brought about the downfall of many of the better teams in the state this season. The high point in the season was reached when the Tobies upset a heavily favored New Britain array 45-56. The Crimson and White displayed what was probably their best form of the season in downing the defending state champions. The Governors simply outran and outplayed their opponents in every department. The Cross hoopsters ended the season on a successful note by outscoring a spirited Boardman five 47-53.

Throughout the season the mermen showed tre- mendous spirit despite the loss of some meets by heartbreak- ing margins. The boys got off to a fast start, licking East Haven and Bridgeport Central by goodly margins. Warren Harding, however, Cross's third opponent defeated our mar- iners in an exciting meet by six points. Cross, after sinking Wilcox Tech, lost a heartbreaking decision to West Haven on a disqualification. The boys then lost to Hopkins, but bounced back to defeat Meriden. After this victory, Cross ran the doldrums. They were defeated by Hillhouse, Nauga- tuck, Greenwich, and Hartford Public in that order. In the semi-final event of the season Cross defeated Hartford Bulkeley and in the finale tied Hamden. The individual scoring honors were copped easily by Ralph Battista with 105.5 points. Donald Sadler followed with 81.5 points, and third, was the captain of the team, Jack Wager, who compiled 55 points. Although the team dicl not live up to pre-season expecta- tions much credit is due Coach Lou Colucci for the splendid job he has done for the past two years. sito, Schmidt, B.
