MEREDITH COOPER WHOSE UNTIRING EFFORTS AND FAITHFUL DEVOTION HAVE MATERIALLY AIDED IN ESTABLISHING IN THE WINCHESTER HIGH SCHOOL AN IDEAL OF CITIZENSHIP AND DEMOCRACY. THIS BOOK IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED 4 ABERJOMA • 1949 Administrators Wade L. Grindle. Principal Not until we are upperclassmen do we come to know our school administrators well and to appreciate the many hours of planning and guidance given us by them. Dr. Forbes Norris, our Superintendent of Schools, came to us from Richmond, Virginia, when we were in our fresh ' man year. We have come to know him by his friendly attitude and to admire him for his clear thinking as demonstrated in his talks to the student body. Also during our freshman year Mr. Wade L. Grindle returned from the armed services. Teachers, parents, and students, alike, are fortunate to have such fair, generous, ane sympathetic guidance in school affairs. More remote from our lives during the school day, but most important in shaping school policies is the Win ' Chester School Board, composed of men and women who give their time for the betterment of our educational program. Mr. William Speers, Chairman; Mr. Howard Bartlett; Mrs. Marion Chandler; Mr. Daniel Chane; Mr. Charles Jellison; and Mr. Richard Rush compose the current School Board. Forbes H. Norris, Ed.D., Superintendent ABE RJOMA . 19 49 5 Faculty First Row: Mr. Aversa, Miss Bronson, Mr. Stevens, Miss Bailey, Mr. Keeney, Mrs. Stacy, Mr. Grindle, Miss Mackedon, Mr. Butters, Mrs. Travis, Dr. Al.ley, Mr. O’Leary. Second Row: Miss Anifantis, Miss Livingstone, Miss Goodrich, Miss McDaniels, Miss Foley, Miss Regan. Mme. Genicot, Miss Cone, Miss Carroll, Miss Crockett, Mrs. Bartlett, Miss Skornik. Third Row: Mr. Knowlton, Mr. Bartlett, Mr. Skerry, Mr. Kotkov, Mr. Cooper, Mr. Brandley, Mr. Reed, Mr. Hayward, Mr. Fitts, Mr. Morse, Mr. Curtis. How fortunate we are to have such a competent group of teachers on the faculty of Win¬ chester High School! We recognizie very few of the teachers in the Wadleigh now, but Miss Bailey is still on hand to greet her shy but admiring freshmen. Mr. Morse, director of the Junior- Senior Class Play, is now a necessary part of the freshman building. If we were to become fresh¬ men again, we would probably find ourselves in classes under Mr. Jason, Miss Daniels, Miss Foley, Miss Regan, and Mrs. Bartlett. If then we were to pretend to be sophomores once more, we would spend a period with Mr. Hayward, perhaps debating a question of world-wide impor¬ tance, after which we might skip down to Room 16, where Mme. Genicot holds forth. Depend¬ ing upon our courses we would then keep a date with either Mr. Reed, Mr. Weafer, Mr. Skerry, Miss Bennett, Mr. Cooper, Miss Cone, Miss Crockett, Mr. Fitts, or perhaps Mr. Curtis, our ’new faculty adviser for the A. A. Let’s for old times’ sake go back one year and enjoy together Mr. Stevens’ class during the study of, say, “A Tale of Two Cities.” Then for a change we’ll peek into Mr. Butters’ room and help him solve his arithmetic and geometric progressions. Miss Mackedon, more good-natured than ever because of that sparkler on her left hand, teaches us French against our will. Mr. Bartlett, Mr. Kotkov, Miss Skornik, Mrs. Travis or “Doc” Alley might then have us for a period or two. As seniors we are especially lucky to have Mr. Keeney, who does his best to prepare us for College Boards, and Mrs. Stacy, who steadfastly maintains that we are teaching her American history. Miss Bronson annually succeeds in placing as many as possible in positions in business at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Miss Livingstone, our willing librarian, helps us in many ways. Many boys, and girls too, find pleasure and practical experience while working with Mr. Leary, Mr. Aversa, Mr. Branley, and Miss Niven. Miss Goodrich’s work in the Art Department is praiseworthy, and we can all attest to the success of Mr. Felmet and Miss Anifantis in music. Miss Carroll and Coach Knowlton do their best to provide activities for the sports-minded among us. As we graduate we shall certainly carry with us memories of a wonderful W. H. S. faculty! 6 ABERJOKA ■ 1949 Oscar, Fred, and Dan. Mrs. Demsey and Miss Carrol. Mr. Butters and junior mathematicians. Mr. Keeney with a senior English class.

Student (Council The Student Council is the hub of school life, as it includes representatives from each home- room, organisation, and club in the School. Under its constitution the purpose of the Student Council is stated as follows: “To give every student a voice in the government of the School and to aid in the internal administration, thus encouraging the welfare of the School through the cooperation of pupils and faculty. To represent all student organisations under one general head.” The Council has met every other Thursday under the able leadership of Fred Walsh, Bob Morris, Marge Carroll, John Hammond, and the faculty adviser, Mr. Cooper. This year, besides efficiently conducting class elections, the Student Council conducted the elections for Student Good Government Day, in which Paul Dillingham was chosen Representative from the 29th Middlesex District. In the fall and spring, groups of Student Council members attended the conventions of the Eastern Massachusetts Student Government Association at Brighton High School and Concord High School respectively. The Valentine’s Dance on February 12 was the Council’s outstanding social activity of the year. It was a success both “sociahwise” and “moneys wise,” amply replenishing the Student Council treasury. All in all, though the Student Council has done nothing startling during the year, it has, with its Thursday morning meetings, aroused the interest of many students toward helping to make a better Winchester High School! 40 ABERJOHA ■ 1949 traffic Squad Under the leadership of Mr. Cooper, the faculty adviser, the traffic squad functioned effi ' ciently and effectively this year. With the inception of some new traffic rules and regulations, the student body became increasingly aware of the squad’s presence. Bob Elliott, as traffic lieutenant, an office created early this year, promoted the coordination of all passing between classes. In order to impress the student body with the importance of the traffic squad, the mem¬ bers wore red traffic bands with the letters W. H. S. in black. Many students and teachers commented favorably on the bands. A new rule discouraging students from going to their lockers after the first, second, and fifth periods, except for coats and musical instruments, put an end to much unnecessary congestion in the locker rooms. Giving the traffic officers the power to give detentions was the most important innovation. Needless to say, it helped solve many problems. This year there were six officers on the first floor, with five on the other two floors, and one on the stairs leading to the auditorium; Bob Elliott usually stayed on duty on the first floor. The 2:30 congestion in the locker rooms was the year’s insoluble problem. The freshmen also had an effi¬ ciently organizied traffic squad which maintained order in the ancient halls of the Wadleigh Building. All in all, the traffic squads this year have made great strides towards more efficient, orderly passing between classes. First Row: J. Quine, R. Carroll, R. Elliott, Mr. Cooper, J. Flanders, T.

Formation of this habit is the goal of the Thrift Association, which urges all students to bank every week. This efficient organisation is handled and directed by Mrs. Stacy. On Tuesday mornings Aidan Underwood rushes around from room to room, speeding up the homeroom bankers, persuading delinquent students to bank, and, on the whole, capably per¬ forming his duties as president. Blair Currie and his assistant, Bruce McGovern, tramp over to the Wadleigh Building to solve all problems that may arise among the freshmen, rushing the results to Room 13. All these results are carefully tabulated to make up the weekly report presented by Margery Bugbee, Alice Hodge, and Pat McDermott. Every week this year’s officers and bankers worked hard, though unsuccessfully, to attain 100%. The Thrift Associa¬ tion promoted the habit which is so much needed ' in the world today: the habit of saving a little every week. First Row: T. Gallager, R. Cleary, C. Hart, D. Holdsworth, D.

Com petently led by Miss Mackedon, the officers, President Blair Currie, Vice-President Robert Morris (who moved to Florida in December), Secretary Ruth Morse, Treasurer Fred Walsh, Publicity Chairman Marjorie Carroll, Production Chairman Doris Casey, Art Chairman Barry Grace, the Executive Board, and Home Representatives completed several splendid drives and put on an assembly for the School. In the fall the School responded one hundred per cent to the membership drive in which fifty-seven dollars was collected. Soon after, nine bags of used clothing were filled for overseas. To aid the Senior Chapter, about thirty-five hundred envelopes of Christmas seals were prepared for mailing. Before vacation, a drive for Christmas cards for hospitalizied veterans resulted in the collection of two thbusand cards. The first drive of the New Year for old magazines met with astounding results, two thousand ninety-seven magazines being collected. Most of these were sold and the proceeds used to buy four new subscriptions, two to Life and two to The Reader ' s Digest, for the Bedford Hospital library. Playing cards for this hospital was next on the agenda — one hundred and fifty-eight packs being gathered. The last drive of the year, to collect money with which to fill a gift chest, resulted in the collection of sixty dollars. For the first time in Winchester, a Town Council has been organized. This Council coordinates the activities of all the schools in Winchester. The one big project of the Town Council this year is the filling of the school chest, in which WHS is taking part. The cooperation of Miss Goodrich’s art classes and the Art Club has been invaluable. The wonderful response by the School to the many drives has made such a successful year possible.

Library ( lub With between twenty-five and thirty members in their group, the Library Club, under the direction of Miss Livingstone, has held many fine meetings this year. Phyllis Gange, last year’s vice- ' president, stepped up to the rank of president and has for her assisting officers Margaret Mahoney, vice-president, and Ann Hogan, secretary. Each member of the Club puts in one study period a week at the school library, arranging books, filing cards, and typing. This accom¬ plishes the two-fold purpose of acquainting the student with library procedure and helping the librarian keep the library running smoothly. Many of the meetings take the form of discussions of current books, while at other meetings the group listens with enjoyment to records of music and speech. In the line of social activities, the Library Club has formed a bowling team. Without the assistance of the Library Club, W. H. S. could not possibly have the efficiently functioning library it may boast of now. 44 ABERJOXA . 1949 V)(tixed Glee Qlub The Mixed Glee Club, formed in part from last year’s Selected Chorus, adopted the name Mixed Glee Club to avoid confusion with the chorus classes. The group has met during the activity periods of Tuesday and Thursday. It is made up primarily of upperclassmen and is one of the outstanding choral groups of WHS. One of the highlights of this year was the presentation of “ ’Twas the Night Before Christmas” with Jim Quine as St. Nick, Linda Bartlett as Mama, and Skitchie Carroll as Papa acting out the story. Andrew Antippas and Bob Horne were the soloists. It is hoped that another Massachusetts State Choral Clinic will be held again at Tufts College, where last year members of the Mixed Glee Club joined four hundred other high school students from all over Massachusetts in a sight-reading session and concert sing. Students also had an opportunity to listen to demonstration groups which illustrated various types of choral music. The Mixed Glee Club is to be congratulated upon the fine showing it has made at school assemblies, concerts, and at graduation exercises. It is hoped that next year choir robes will be obtained for this most deserving musical organi 2 ;ation. First Row: D. Rush, J. Morabito, P. Clarke, R. Carroll, S. Sorokin, J. Loftus, D. Ducharme, R.

S. through its many outside performances. Under the skillful directorship of Miss Eleanor Anifantis, at civic and social affairs and at club meeting’s the Octette immediately wins enthusiastic applause from its audiences. Many are the words of praise they’ve received for their excellent singing. Now only two years old, this group has already sung for the following: Chelsea Naval Hospital, Murphy General Hospital, Brighton Marine Hospital, D. A. R., Republican Club, Fortnightly Club, Rotary Club, Old People’s Home, Teachers’ Club, School Assemblies, the Annual Vaudeville Show, and the Spring Concert. Judith Flanders, the talented accompanist of the girls, deserves much credit for the Octette’s success. It is now, in April, known that the Octette is planning to enter the State Music Festival, which will be held in Newburyport in May. The group is looking forward to this event with high hopes of doing well; we can be sure that Winchester will be well represented by these girls. First Row: D. Brandt, B. Gay, R. Ratcliff, M.

The officers are John Fudge, president; Richard Riga, vice pres- ' ident; and Dorothy Brandt, accompanist. The boys may be heard rehearsing during the sixth period Tuesday and second period on Thursday. The Glee Club presents a uniform appearance with dark trousers, white shirts, and red and black school ties. At the Christmas Assembly the Boys’ Glee Club, together with the Girls’ Glee Club, Octette, and Mixed Glee Club, gave a most praiseworthy performance. The boys were grouped around a manger scene with the Three Kings as they sang their selections. The club was also featured in the Annual Vaudeville Show and the Spring Concert. As a new organiziation the group has been very successful and has made excellent progress due to the untiring efforts of Miss Eleanor Anifantis, director of all the Glee Clubs. The club enables its members to acquire a deeper appreciation of group singing, as well as giving them much social activity and pleasure. W. H.

The officers are Nancy Booth, president; Martha Bailey, vice-president; and Judith Flanders, accompanist. Rehearsals are held twice a week, on Tuesday and Thursday. The Girls’ Glee Club is to be commended highly for its splendid work this year. The lovely tone quality and unusual tone blending deserve mention. The girls have found in the club a source of fine choral music. Outstanding among their concerts was the performance at Christmas. The girls were most attractively attired in red skirts, white long-sleeved blouses, small black bows, and black shoes. The girls featured in the Annual Spring Concert, and entered the Massachusetts State Music Festival in May. As the Aberjona goes to press the results of these activities are not known, but the girls are expected to do well, as many of them were members of the Junior High Glee Club, which was highly praised for its performance at the Festival last year.

Working hard, often under adverse conditions, Mr. Felmet has led the red coats and black pants through to emerge victorious every time. In the fall the Band attended every football clash except the Woburn game to lend support to players and spectators alike. The musicians also played at one of the football rallies. The first dance of the season was sponsored by the Band to pay for the snappy new pants. In December many Band members attended the Fall Sports Banquet. In the winter there was a highly successful Band Assembly Concert. The advent of spring saw the Band invited to play for the Fellsland Council of Boy Scouts. The Band entered the State Music Festival and held its annual spring concert as May arrived. After that came Memorial Day with waving flags, crowds lining the streets, and the long winding road through Wildwood Cemetery. Soon the uniforms will be turned in again and the instruments taken home for the last time. Mr. Felmet will wish everyone a happy vacation, and so will end another season for the W. H. S. Band.

Crash! plink, plink. Crash! No, no, NO! Can’t you see there ' s a rest on the first beat? Start again from letter A.” This, if you haven’t already guessed, is a sample of regular proceedings in the auditorium every Tuesday during second period and Thurs ' day during fourth period. This year, says Mr. Felmet, always an optimist, the orchestra has moved up another rung on the ladder that leads to the Boston Symphony. That eternal must, the string section, has expanded to include eleven precious players — four first violins, four seconds, two ’celli, and a viola. The “Felmet Plan” is now in action and a healthy crop of fiddlers is springing up in the grades to provide additional players each year. Another reason for the orchestra’s improvement is the quality of the musicians’ instruments. When the orchestra was first organized, students were using some instruments which were falling apart, and others which were little better. Even a virtuoso needs a good instrument to produce good results, and nothing hinders the progress of a beginner more than a poor instrument. In the past few years the School has purchased several instruments, mostly of the large and more expensive type, to give students an opportunity to play those instruments which they might not otherwise be able to obtain. Moreover, many parents have deemed it worthwhile to purchase new instruments for their talented offspring. With a better string section, new instruments, and a general improvement in the skill of the student musicians, the orchestra has attempted this year to play more good music. New pieces have been added to the orchestral library, including works by Wagner, Tschaikowsky, Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert. The officers this year are President, Fred Walsh; Vice-President, John Hammond. The orchestra has appeared in public on several occasions: an assembly concert in February, the Junior-Senior Class Play, the public concert in May, and the State Music Festival. First Row J.

S. into focus in relation to rival schools, but also in offering to interested students a variety of experience in radio. This year the Radio Workshop operated on an informal basis mainly because of the lack of a meeting place. However, interest and enthusiasm was high with a total of forty three signing up at the first meeting. The workshop worked on a variety of programs during the year such as the writing, production and performance of an original radio script, “So Conceived and So Dedicated,” given as one of a series sponsored by WEEI and the Massachusetts Department of Education. In many respects this was the high point of the year’s work. The program was later presented at a meeting of the local Rotary Club. Members also participated in five shows over WCOP, part of a series on inter-cultural relations called “Stories to Remember.” Winchester also contributed a member to the “Junior Town Meeting of the Air” when the program was broadcast from Marblehead High School. WCRB of Waltham offered a fifteen- minute spot for a series of shows to be given every other week. It was disappointing to have to refuse this fine opportunity, but lack of time and facilities prevented the Workshop’s accepting. The School has purchased a Califone playback which has proved very valuable to the Workshop because it will play the studio sixteen-inch transcriptions. A portable microphone and some new sound records have also been added. The progress of the Radio Workshop has been steady despite handicaps. A basement room in the Wadleigh Building has been set aside as a meeting place with an adjoining room for rehearsals and other activities. This, plus a few new pieces of equipment, and possibly a student redecorating job, should provide a lift for the coming year. The work is interesting and rewarding, and we hope for its continued growth! ABERJOHA . 1949 51 First Row: B. Chilcott, M. O’Meilia, J. Neilly, J. Wolsey, Mr. Morse, Miss Bailey,P. Turner, S.

The first, “Elmer and the LoveBug,” was given as an assembly program in the fall and enjoyed by all as a wonderful comedy. Those participating to make it a hit performance were Bob Morris, Dini Meacham, Bob Singer, Jean Neiley, John Rocray, Susie St. Clair, John Power, Felicia Me 2 ; 2 acappa, Joan Woolsey, Alice Hodge, Carolyn Edgar, and Ann Farquhar. As always. Miss Bailey’s directing made this play fine entertainment. The second play, “Pot Luck,” was presented in the spring, also as an assembly program. Those cast in this play were Diantha Lamb, Felicia Me 2 , 2 ;acappa, Brad Smith, John Hammond, Alice Hodge, Sandra Hall, and Bette Fitzigerald. This, of course, was another equally fine play. Jacqueline Fritch and Betsy Chilcott, who handled properties, and Bob Elliott, Bob Oxford, Peter Millett, and Wally Maroney, the stage crew, deserve much credit for doing a good job with much work and little applause. Leslie Wilcox and Janet Akeson, who helped in making up characters, were another factor in each play’s success. This year’s officers. President Bob Singer, Vice-President Ted Cole, Secretary Priscilla Turner, and Treasurer Jim Quine have taken the Dramatic Club through another very successful season, while providing much excellent entertainment for the student body. 52 ABERJOHA ■ 1949 Junior-Senior Qlass lay Plans for the Junior-Senior Class Play began in November when the committee chose a mystery, “Through the Night,” following popular suggestions for such a presentation. The play was a smoothly written and welhpresented drama, set at Sandymere, the estate of wealthy Dwight Holbrook. Sue St. Clair played the lead as the sophisticated Sayre Holbrook, while Jim Quine, back from “Brother Rat” in an entirely different role, was the many talented, much ' traveled, and somewhat mysterious Bunny Hare. Dwight Holbrook, Sayre’s uncle, was played by Jim St. Clair. The two other women’s parts were Kay Stanton, Sayre’s best friend, and Aunt Alicia, Dwight’s fluttery sister. These parts were played by Priscilla Turner and Barbara Dunbury with witty and amusing conviction. The part of Greg Stanton, Kay’s spoiled, athletic brother and Sayre’s fiance, was taken by Don Ducharme. Two juniors, John Rocray and John Power, delivered promising performances as Calvin Driscoll, supposed friend of the family, and the Owl, a Robin Hood type of thief. Milton Galucia was very amusing as Bart Jessop, the local sheriff; and Brad Smith was the dignified butler. Bob Elliott headed an able stage crew. Mr. Morse, now completing his second year at Winchester High, ably directed this play to make his second production here his second hit. Left to Right: D. Ducharme, P. Turner, J. Rocray, S.

We don’t know how he does it but it seems that every year Mr. Hayward comes up with an entirely new and exciting show, and you can be sure that he has won the respect and admiration as well as the friendship of every student that has worked with him. This year’s cast included over a hundred students of all sizes, ages, and shapes, many of them returning from last year’s show. The popularity award, if there were one, would go to “Hum Hennessey’’ and “Strum Horne’’ who brought the house down with applause and calls for encores. Other favorites in the show were Phyllis O’Neil’s song and dance act, Jim Quine’s monologue, the Jazz Band featuring John Hammond, Fred Walsh, Ken Harvey, Bob Singer, Don Ducharme, John Davis, and Jim Hennessey. The Pony Chorus and Poniettes, Barry Grace, the Silver Statues, the Shoemaker-Maroney tap dance act, and of course Joan Wolsey’s Mexican Dance were all hits of the show. There were three alumni who returned to be in the show, Ted O’Rourke, Marguerite Derro, and Dee Young. Seven students have been in the show for four years, Nancy O’Rourke, Patsy Willing, Debbie Symmes, Pat Connor, Bob Horne, Jim Hennessey, and Jim Quine. Among those of the faculty other than Mr. Hayward who devoted a great deal of time and thought to the show are Miss Carroll, Miss Anifantis, Miss Cone, Miss Goodrich, Mr. Morse, Mr. Knowlton, and Mr. O’Donnell. The Annual Vaudeville Show is the most popular public production of the school year, and this year’s show was the best yet! First Row: J. Rallo, M. Bugbee, C. Keefe, M. Derro, M. Marabelh, P.

Last spring the Club took a trip to the Wayside Inn, in Sudbury, to have a picnic and do some outdoor sketching. Because such a good time was had by everyone, the Club intends to take another trip this year, although the itinerary is unknown at present. Some of the activities of the Art Club this year included making posters for dances, sports events, the class play, and the Vaudeville Show, designing the cover and advertisements for the Vaude ville program, and doing all the art work for the Aberjona. Again this year, club members won prizes in the National Scholastic Art Contest. Barry Grace captured two gold-key awards, while Priscilla Sherman and Edison Roberts each won a key. During the latter part of the year, there were talks on well-known modern artists as well as demonstrations by club members of different kinds of media. The officers of the Art Club this year were President, Barry Grace; Vice- President, Douglas Macneill; Secretary, Joan Wolsey; and Treasurer, Elmira Baldacci. ABE RJ OH A . 19 49 55 First Row: B.

Qamera ( lub The Camera Club, revived last year after a brief rest, took its place again this year as one of our school activities. Thanks to last year’s group, the preliminary work of locating a dark room was already accomplished. Under the guidance of President Sergei Sorokin, Treasurer Benson Snyder, and the faculty adviser, Mr. Demsey, the group proceeded to a successful year. The members have taken pictures of various school activities, such as the Junior ' Senior Class Play and the Vaudeville, which have both amused and delighted members of the cast, student body, and the club. Members have been encouraged to present at club meetings snapshots which they have taken that illustrate some phase of lighting or timing. Meetings have been held at which lectures illustrated by slides and movies have been presented to the group. It is hoped that the club will continue in the future to function as an important and interesting activity in the high school. 56 ABERJOHA . 1949 T5he J{ed and lacJ{ Under the joint advisership of Mr. Fitts and Mr. Stevens, the Red and Blacl{ made great strides forward this year. For the first time in the history of the high school, a journalism class was offered, one of its main functions being to put out the school paper. The class was open to all qualified juniors who wanted to elect journalism instead of the conventional English III. For the first two issues, until the young journalists could get settled, a group of seniors and juniors from last year’s staff edited the paper. As the journalism class gained experience, the students were able to produce a very effective newspaper, for they had much more time to devote to it. Their many new ideas met with much favorable comment. Photography enlivened almost every issue. Use of smaller type allowed more written material to be produced. The editorials were well worth reading, and the “Letters to the Editor’’ column was mproved. All these and many other changes enhanced the reader’s enjoyment of the paper. In order that every participant in the course might have a chance to be an editor for at least one issue, a rotating editorship system was devised, with Sergei Sorokin carrying the lion’s share of the burden. We know that the progress shown this year indicated increasingly better newspapers for the future. First Row: Jo Power, M. Wilson, D. Holdsworth, J. Loftus, R. Joslm, E. Hersey. Second Row: N.

With a staff of thirty-five willing workers. Miss Crockett, our faculty adviser, and the several editors and managers have succeeded in preparing for publication this year’s Aberjona. Phyllis Gange has held the all-important job of Business Manager. Only those few students who have worked under her, bringing in ads and handling the many problems that arise concerning the financing of the yearbook, can fully realize the amount of work Phyllis has put into her job. Betzy Chipman and Blair Currie acted as Co-editors: Betzy in charge of all copy concerning our clubs, activities, and sports, and Blair handling senior write-ups. Jim St. Clair has done a very fine job as Photography Editor, giving much time and energy to his job. Copy readers, notablyAnn Keeney, Richard Cleary, and Carolyn Zinn, spent several afternoons reading and often re-writing copy, an exacting and extremely important aspect of this book-publishing business. To Priscilla Sherman, Edison Roberts, Barry Grace, and Douglas Macneill goes a great deal of appreciation for their sketches and artwork throughout the year book. The staff of this Aberjona has aimed at producing a yearbook worthy of previous class books and an accurate and memorable chronicle of the class of ’49. First Row: L. Augusta, F. Walsh, B. Gay, J.

Science Qluh The Science Club is an organization made up of people who wish to go deeper into the study of science than classroom work permits. Under the leadership of its officers, President Pete Dillingham, Vice-President Ruth Sheehan, Treasurer Edward Fudge, and Secretary Brad Smith, and its faculty adviser, “Doc” Alley, the Science Club has continued to be one of the most inter¬ esting and active groups at W. H. S. For the first time the executive board, in whose hands a larger part of the executive powers are supposed to lie, came into prominence when its members, David Muncaster, Joe deRivera, Peter Clarke, Sergei Sorokin, David Holdsworth, Ruth Halm, and Blair Currie plotted to “usurp” the President’s powers. The first meeting of the year was devoted to the election of officers and an executive board. At the second meeting a lecture and demonstration was given on the preparation and properties of carbon dioxide. A movie was also shown on living microbes. Ralph Wilbur at the third meeting gave a lecture and demonstration on the Tesla Coil. The fourth meeting witnessed a talk on sulphur by Sergei Sorokin, and a movie on tropisms. At the fifth meeting a lecture and demonstration on the cathode-ray tube was given by Dave Muncaster. All in all, the Science Club has had another very successful year.

All those students who are taking third or fourth year math and who desire a little fun in this fascinating subject are eligible for membership. At the first meeting of the year, Richard Cleary was elected president and Paul Dillingham, secretary. The usual schedule includes four meetings a year, the last one at the home of Mr. Butters, the faculty adviser. The highlight of the season is, of course, this social gathering at Mr. Butters’ house, where competition for the annual mathematics contest at Newton is held in an atmosphere of friendly rivalry. Com ' petition IS keen and the ones who win this contest, two seniors and two juniors, are always envied by their classmates, whether or not they fare well at Newton. The Math Club had an extremely large membership this year; and all those connected with the club are confident that this indicates an increasingly keen interest in mathematics, a fascinating combination of art and science. 60 ABERJOKA • 1949 i Quanto le Gusta! Now in Its third year the Spanish Club is firmly placed among the most popular clubs in the school. Under the able guidance of Senor Kotkov and President Joan Rallo the club with its fifty-five members has enjoyed its meetings, at which movies on the South American continent and Spain have been shown. This year the club has added a new project to its program, that of a “iCuanto le Gusta!” dance, which proved to be one of the most entertaining stag dances held this year. The traditional highlight of each year is the banquet held at the Masonic Hall with entertainment provided straight from South of the Border! This club still maintains its standard of being an honorary club, only Spanish students receiving an “A” or “B” being eligible. They only may vote and attend business meetings, but anyone in the school may attend the other meetings of the club. Membership in the Club is the goal of all of Winchester’s Spanish students!

They wanted to start a new type of club in Winchester High School, a Philosophy Club. Before Mr. Skerry would go ahead with any plans he asked Dave Muncaster and Joe deRivera, the two originators of the club, to canvass their classmates and find out if there was enough interest to form a work ' able group. In January of this year the first official meeting of the Philosophy Club was held. Since then there have been several more meetings and the club seems to be shaping up very well. Unlike most of the clubs in our high school, this club has no officers and no dues. Joe deRivera acts as moderator of the group and does most of the detail work. The purpose of the club is to discuss problems in human relations and to discuss the different values put upon aspects of life. For instance, one of the most interesting meetings was built around the subject “The Virtues and Faults of the Closed Shop.” This question was discussed from opposing points of view and created a great deal of controversy. The purpose of the club is to make its members think. The Philosophy Club is moving toward accomplishing this feat if nothing else! In the future the club hopes to hear qualified adult speakers present their views on controversial subjects. First Row: B. Currie, S. Hall, B. Michalson, Mr. Skerry, M. Kraft, P. Clark.

A growing concern among high school students for the safety of the world they live in is mirrored in this movement which is not for school, town, state or nation alone, but for the benefit of the entire world. The members of this organization adhere to the belief that “peace is not merely the absence of war, but the presence of justice, of law, of order — in short, of government and the institutions of government.” Through democratic means of education and voting, they hope to strengthen the United Nations from a league of sovereign states to a real world government with limited powers adequate to prevent war. They believe that world government is the only effective means of preventing war and of stopping the spread of the despair and fear that lead to tyranny and anarchy. Of course W. H. S.’s handful of students could do little to attain these ends by themselves, but as a part of a large group of students and adults from all parts of the democratic world they may be effective. The group has sponsored several discussions on the United Nations, various world problems, and the ways and means of attaining world government and consequent peace. The meetings have varied from the philosophical to the hilarious, and while endeavoring to advance their beliefs, the members have not been without their “lighter moments.” The members of the Winchester High School Chapter, many of whom are to graduate this year, hope that future classes will keep this active, purposeful o rganization alive and flourishing!

T ational Honor Society Election to the National Honor Society is the highest honor which Winchester High School can bestow upon its students. Membership in the National Honor Society is limited to fifteen percent of the senior class, a certain portion of which may be elected in the junior year. The Aberjona Chapter of this society is purely honorary, there being no program of activities. Members are chosen by the senior and junior classes, and the members of the faculty, with a committee of three, consisting of the principal and two faculty members. The only prerequisite for candidacy is scholastic standing in the upper third of the class. In the class of ' ■ ' ■49,” nine students were elected in their junior year, and eighteen during their senior year. The students chosen in their junior year were President Richard Cleary, Vice-president Paul Dillingham, Secretary-treasurer Ruth Morse, Dorothy Buracker, Bet 2 ;y Chipman, Peter Clark, Judith Flanders, Margaret O’Leary, and Robert Singer. The initiation ceremony, on April 13, was led by these nine seniors. Richard Cleary led the ceremony, and Dr. Forbes Norris and our Principal, Mr. Wade L. Grindle, addressed the initiates and the student body. Short talks on Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service, the qualities on which the society is based, were given by Ruth Morse, Dorothy Buracker, Paul Dillingham, and Betzy Chipman. Especially to be com¬ mended are those juniors who achieved membership during this year: Elmira Baldacci, David Holdsworth, Miriam Parker, Dennis Sanford, and Sergei Sorokin. The following seniors also received this high honor: Lynn Aitken, Lorraine Augusta, Eli 2 ;abeth Barrett, Blair Currie, Robert Elliott, Beverly Gay, Ann Keeney, Charles McGowen, Patricia Mawn, Joan Morgan, Paul Mottolo, Anthony Peluso, Alice Pride, Richard Richmond, John Sargent, Ruth Sheehan, Fred Walsh, and Fay Zamanakos. 64 ABERJOMA 1949 Miss Bennett and proteges.

This year under the watchful eyes of Coaches Knowlton and Carroll, Faculty Manager Mr. Curtis, and President James Quine many new ideas have been added to the well established program, one being Jim Quine’s idea of a boys’ Varsity Club to protect and support the interests of the A. A. With an excellent membership drive completed, the A. A. went on to a very successful football season, not only in scores, but also in finances. The Fall Sports Dance in October, and the Mid Winter Dance, providing relief after exams in January, proved very enjoys able to all who attended. In spite of the necessary raising of the price of the annual AlhSports Banquet, the banquet was well attended by the two hundred and fifty eligible letter winners, who suggested replacing the banquet with an AlhSports Night. At the banquet three letter- winners Lynn Aitkens and Pete Dillingham, captains of basketball and track respectively, were awarded the Mansfield-Wheeler Sportsmanship Cups. Next on the docket came the Seventeenth Annual Vaudeville Show, which seems to have been voted the best yet of Mr. Hayward’s uniformly excellent productions. Both students and faculty showed great interest in putting the show over. To add to the record, this year’s A. A. Board has awarded one hundred and three varsity letters, sixty-seven second team awards, and twenty-one numerals. Under the direction of Mr. Curtis this A. A. has also furnished new uniforms to both girls’ and boys’ basketball teams, the football and baseball teams, and has furnished new sweat suits for the track team. The A. A. Executive Board is one of the most active high school organizations, coordinating all W. H. S. athletic action. First Row: F. Zamanakos, M. Carroll, Mr. Curtis, J. Quine, L. Aitkens, C. McGowan.

ABERJO?{A . 1949 67 Varsity Qlub The Varsity Club, organised this year for the first time, is under the direction and super¬ vision of Coach Henry Knowlton. Coach Knowlton has long wanted a club of this sort at Winchester High School; and James Quine, in his speech as a candidate for the presidency of the Athletic Association had advocated an organization for varsity letter winners. After each sports season new members, who must submit formal applications to the secretary of the Varsity Club, are initiated, and elections are held. The initial officers of the club are President, Paul Amico; Vice-president, Dan Devlin; Secretary, John Rocray; and Treasurer, Tony Ciruso. The executive board is made up of the team captains. The purposes of the Varsity Club are to encourage better deportment by students at contests, to meet and assist visiting teams, to aid squad members with scholastic difficulties, to encourage observance of rules and to bolster team morale, to maintain a high standard of school citizenship, to promote and assist intra-mural pro¬ grams, to back all athletic Association ventures, and to present sports films and personalities. Best wishes to an organization with wonderful ideas. First Row: T. McGowan, J. Quine, W. Burtnett, V. Slack, J. Rocray, P. Amico, D. Devlin, R. Zirkel, W. Zirkel, P. Dillingham, H. Myers, K.

(Cheerleaders This year’s cheerleading squad, consisting of eleven and oneTalf members - the oneTalf being our new mascot, a gal really full of pep, Sandra Wolsey has topped all predecessors with new and better cheers. Our football team, although much of its membership was new, really gave the cheerleaders something to cheer about! Never missing a game, the cheerleaders cheered through ram and mud on afternoons varying from 30° to 90°. Under the able leadership of Captain Nancy O’Rourke, this squad couldn’t help but be a great success! Realizing the need for new uniforms, these girls chose snappy black jackets trimmed in red, running a very successful cheer¬ leaders’ dance to pay for them. On the basketball courts of Winchester and surrounding high schools, the cheerleaders lent both physical and vocal support to excellent teams. It’s hoped that next year’s squad, led by Joan Wolsey, will follow in their footsteps, improving as each squad has done before them. ABERJOHA . 1949 69 Football The 1948 Winchester football record shows seven wins, two losses, and one of those destruc tive ties, as compared to seven wins and three losses of 1947- The 1948 team was much better than the record shows, lacking mostly a little luck. Coach Knowlton had five returning starters in Pete Dillingham at left half, Paul Amico at full. Captain Verne Slack at left end. Bob “Mac” at left guard and Gunnar Abrahamson at the pivot spot. Coach rounded out the team with 200- pounders Galucia and Hutchins as tackles, Mario Mascoli at right end, Paul Mottollo at right guard, “Iron Man” Myers at wing back, and Skitchie Carroll at the signal position. For reserves Coach had Quine, Marabella, and Capone as tackles, Kirwin, Roberto, and Burtnett as ends, Dattillo and Suppa, guards, and in the backfield Ciruso, Devlin, Richmond, Migliacci and Gilberto. No coach could hope for a better balanced team. With the capable aid of “Bart,” Mr. Reed, and new line coach John Gorezynski, Coach Knowlton moulded these boys into a very creditable group. The season opened with a bang as the Red and Black defeated Lexington, 20-7. Hopes were high- for another championship. But, the Sculpins from Swampscott dashed these hopes with a 15-6 setback. Then the Re d and Black was defeated 6-0 at the hands of a Watertown team and was suddenly upped to Class “B.” Following these defeats the team picked up and won four games straight, defeating Winthrop 19-6, Stoneham 27-0, Framingham 19-7, and Reading 13-0. The team looked its best at Framingham, winning over an undefeated class “C” club. Repeating the performance of the 1946 season, the team fought out a 6-6 tie with Belmont. In the next game the club showed its defensive ability, setting back a strong Wakefield team 12-7. The Red and Black went to Woburn for the Turkey Day annual and hung a 20-0 defeat on the “Tanners” to top off a good season. Pete Dillingham led the year’s scoring with 52 points, 8 touchdowns and 4 points after. Captain-elect Paul Amico and Myers each crossed the goal line four times, and Captain Verne Slack scored thrice. They did an exceptionally fine job! First Row: M. Patterson, L. Ferrara, R.

Girls ' Field Hoc ey Despite rather pessimistic predictions before the regular season got under way, the girls’ Field Hockey Team completed the 1948 season with an undefeated record. However, this record was marred by the fact that five of the eight games were ties. At the beginning of the season frequent changing of the line-up was the custom, so the offense did not function effectively until the middle of the season. Winchester tied the first four games, including such strong teams as Malden, Concord, and Arlington. The team finally found its stride by defeating a strong Water- town team, and continued to roll over Arlington and Melrose by large scores. In the last game of the season, a scrappy Belmont eleven held the girls to a scoreless stalemate. Playing in the forward line which provided the scoring punch were: Lynn Aitkens, left wing; Joan Morgan, and Marilyn Chase, left inners; Debby Symmes, center forward; Barbara Buffum and Captain Dottie Kelley, right inners; Ruth Morse and Joan Rallo, right wings. Combining on the defense which limited the opposition to three goals were: Pat McDermott and Sally Morgan, left half; Dee Barrett, center half; Ginny Gaffney, right half; Mary Johnston and Barbara Michelson, left fullback; Marcie Knowlton and Nancy O’Rourke, right fullback; and Maryanne Coulson, goalie. Joan Morgan and Debby Symmes tied for scoring honors with three apiece, while Lynn Aitkens and Dee Barrett scored two each. Captain Dottie Kelley scored the only other goal. At the annual playday at Beaver Country Day School, the team got two wins and a tie, the tie being with Winsor. At this playday, left-wing Lynn Aitkens was chosen to the all-school first team, while Dee Barrett made the reserves. The second team made a very creditable record with four wins, three ties, and one defeat. Bette Kneeland was high scorer for the seconds by a large margin with eight points. Assisting Coach Helen Carroll were Managers Margery Bugbee, Fay Zamanakos, and Dons Casey, and practice-teacher, Dottie Menezes. ABERJOKA . 1949 71 ( ross (Country The cross country squad coached by Mr. Thomas A. Morse enjoyed the most successful season in recent years. Losing only once, and that at the hands of the divisional champion, Woburn, our harriers compiled a four-and-one-record, entering the win column for the first time in three years. Due to a change in the formation of the Middlesex League — the League was divided into an upper and a lower division called the Pioneers and Pilgrims, respectively — Winchester was placed in competition with schools of equal size. Our runners walloped Everett Vocational over a short but dangerous course, suffered a setback at Woburn, but severely trounced its remaining opponents, Wellesley, Concord, and Revere on our home course. Losing only to Woburn in the divisional meet, Winchester suffered a relapse in the League contest, finishing eighth; however, the upper division teams of the League walked off with twenty one of the first twentyffve places. But our harriers redeemed themselves by coming in a close sixth in their division of the state meet. Led by Captain Tom McGowan, who broke the original record and now holds the fastest time, over our new course laid out last fall, eight men earned first team letters by averaging in the first ten finishes, a feat seldom accomplished. Jerry Underwood, John Sargent, Aidan Underwood, and four juniors, Fisher Wolfe, Kenny Blake, John Rocray, and Dick Riga comprised the first team. The fact that the second team, lead by Captain John Foley, was undefeated, won the divisional championship, and finished third in its League meet makes the cross country outlook for the 1949 season a pleasing one. Next fall should see another successful season. First Row: J. Dashbach, D. Forrester, J. Foley, F. Lotton, B. Carlton, V. Gnifeths, D. Riga, K. Sullivan, L. Curtis, R. Ives, C. Murphy. Second Row: P.

After getting off to a rocky start in which they dropped six of their first twelve games, the Red and Black suddenly found itself and won the last nine consecutive contests, beating in the process such fine outfits as Winthrop, which later entered the Tech Tournament, and Woburn. The highlight of the season came when the local quintet was invited to feature in the Conway, New Hampshire, Winter Carnival. Here they impressed the big crowd not only with their welhearned 36-24 victory over a hard ghting Kennett High team but also by the clean sportsmanship that they displayed while doing it. Captain Ken Donaghey was the locals’ chief scoring threat all year, ending with an average of almost fourteen points per game and unofficially breaking two of our high school records as he scored the greatest number of points ever recorded in a single game in the local gym, 25, and also the most points in a season, 243. The second team also had a successful season in which it posted eleven victories against six losses. This team, almost entirely made up of juniors, should provide a good nucleus for next year’s Red and Black quintet. Hats off to Coach Bartlett and his assistants for developing these fighting, victorious teams of 1949! ABERJOKA . 1949 73 Girls ' as etball With a nucleus of three returning lettermen, and five graduates of the second team, the girls basketball team had a successful season. Under the able leadership of Captain Lynn Aitkens, the team established a five-win, two-loss record. The two losses were heartbreaking affairs: Medford beat the locals by a foul conversion in the last second of play, after Winchester had held a lead throughout the game; and the game with Arlington was a hard-fought affair with a Winchester rally in the second half just falling short by one basket. Lexington, Belmont, Malden, Melrose, and Watertown were all victims. The starting sextette was chosen from guards Lynn Aitkens, Marcie Knowlton, Joan Rallo, Fay Zamanakos, Carolyn Zinn, and forwards Dee Barrett, Marilyn Chase, Ginny Gaffney, and Peggy O’Leary. High scoring honors w ent to Ginny Gaffney with a total of 78 points, and Dee Barrett as runner-up with 52. The second team, led by Captain Marge Carroll, after an opening setback at the hands of Lexington, swept through the opposition in the remaining six games to end the season with an outstanding 6-1 record. The fine record of both teams was due to the excellent coaching of Miss Carroll and the work of Managers Lorraine Augusta, Nancy Townley-Tilson, and Alice Hodge. First Row: M. Chase. F. Zamanakos, M.

Ice Hoc ey The Hockey Team, though hampered by poor playing conditions, closed its season with a record of three victories to one defeat. Our local sextet defeated Watertown 4 3, Amesbury 5-0, and Belmont Hill J.V.’s 11-2, before being nosed out by a powerful Belmont Hill club 2-0, in a game which could easily have seen a reversed score. Captain Wimpy Burtnett proved his worth once again in his outstanding play, leadership, and reliable scoring. Closely following Wimpy as a consistent scorer was Nonnie Cogan, who also played with Wimpy on the championship sextet of the Winchester Amateur Hockey Club. Other scoring threats were Kenton, O’Brien, Zirkel, Myers, and Mills. Stalwarts on the defense were Priest, Daniels, and Williams, while Stevenson, Hutchins and Aitkens did a fine job as goalies. Paul Hanlon, who spent a good deal of time coaching the team, deserves a great deal of credit for their victorious showing. It’s too bad the weather wasn’t more suitable for hockey as these fellows then could have initiated the new high school rink with an outstanding season! Considering the weatherman’s uncooperative spirit, though, their record is one of fine success! ABERJOKA . 1949 75 ‘Kifle Club The Rifle Club has had a very enjoyable season. Regular practice, held in the basement of the Star Building every Monday night, has increased the competition for positions on both the girls’ and boys’ inter-scholastic rifle teams, which are now in their second year. Due to the disorganization of the rifle league, no letters were awarded this year to team members, but occasional matches were held between neighboring schools. Members of this club work also for their National Rifle Association ratings. This year’s officers. President Robert Oxford, Vice- president Dick Richmond, Secretary Ruth Morse, Treasurer Herb Skerry, and Executive Officer Johnny Richmond, have created a great deal of enthusiasm in the club which will help to con¬ tinue Its popularity in Winchester High next year.

However, the players will have a much harder fight on their hands this year than ever before. The team lost by graduation two of last year’s varsity lettermen, while a third moved away this year. One factor that favors the team is the able instruction of its new coach, Henry K. Fitts. Mr. Fitts returned to Winchester last year after a long absence and immediately captured the town tennis championship. He has had previous experience as a coach, and under his leadership the team hopes to go a long way. Last year’s lettermen returning to the first team are Captain Sheldon Caldwell and Peter Clark. Bob Oxford, Wimpy Burtnett, Bob Walsh, and Blair Currie are all working hard for positions. The second team, composed of Joe deRivera, Pete and John Borden, Sandy Burbank, Vic Griffiths, Dave Hutchins, Peter Redding, and Bruce McGovern, have six matches lined up and are in for a good season of tennis. In the first match of the season, Winchester took Hingham by the lop-sided score of nine to nothing. The next match was lost to Middlesex Academy. The team took this first loss in stride and is looking forward to making a good record to leave the school from the class of ’49. ABERJO?{A . 1949 77 Girls ' tennis As in previous years, the girls’ tennis team has made a highly respected name for itself. Candidates for this year’s squad turned out in scores, forming the largest collection of tennis enthusiasts for some time. The tournament which was held during the April vacation undoubt edly influenced this turn out. Another factor of major importance was the recently finished Manchester Field hard courts, which have provided early spring practice, not possible before this year. Captained by Dottie Buracker, the varsity has Marilyn Chase as the number one player followed by Nancy O’Rourke in the number two position. Dottie Buracker and Debby Symmes follow as three and four with Barbara Buffum, Carol Hawkins, and Jane Chiswell making up the remainder of the team. The fact that a tremendous number of underclassmen turned out, notably sophomores, should be mentioned. The practice they receive this year will greatly improve their game and make for a strong and experienced team in future years. Miss Ayers was the instructor for the team with Ruthie Sheehan and Betsy Chilcott as managers. Again the girls’ tennis team contributed in holding even higher Winchester’s reputation as a tennis playing town. First Row: D. Symmes, D. Buracker, N. O’Rourke, M. Chase. Second Row: Miss Aires, B.

Curtees. baseball As the Aberjona goes to press the baseball season has not yet opened, but here are the speculations of one of the “experts” as to Red and Black prospects for 1949: The 1949 edition of Winchester’s Baseball Team should be as successful a one as has repre- sented W. H. S. in recent years. With seven returning lettermen, the Red and Black should definitely be in contention for the top spot in the Middlesex League. The mainstay of the local nine this year might well be the pitching staff, in other years a strong nemesis, for Coach Bartlett will have back Vern Slack, Don Kenton, Major Daniels, and Paul Roche. Another strong depart¬ ment this year will be catching, in the capable hands of Captain Jim Cogan, with Fred Patterson backing him up. Ken Donaghey, the heaviest hitter on the squad, seems fairly well set on first, and Dan Reardon appears to have the inside on the shortstop job. Other infield berths will be chosen from Lem Priest, Dave Coon, George Tansey, and John Power. The outfield will see three strong-armed throwers for the first time in recent years, as Vern Slack, Paul Roche, Major Daniels and Paul Amico are all boys who are capable of throwing to any base. The hitting should be well taken care of by Donaghey, Slack, Reardon, Cogan, and Roche. Much of any success enjoyed this year can be attributed to Winchester’s summer program of athletics, which features Park League Baseball and a Junior Legion Team. This program has improved the playing of many of the boys, and provided a chance for most of them to play together, thus acquiring that sense of teamwork which is the difference between a losing and a winning club. ABERJOKA . 1949 79 Softball Softball is once again proving a popular sport with the girls. Down at Ginn Field, as spring comes around, the crack of ball against bat - - and ball against shin — can again be heard. Last year, the team was able to make a four win, two-loss, record, losing to strong Medford and Arling¬ ton nines. The outlook for this year’s team is less hopeful with the absence of some of last year’s stars. Of particular importance is the loss of the Holmes twins, Peggy and Sally, as both were heavy hitters and good fielders. On the favorable side is the return of Peggy O’Leary. Peggy, this year’s captain, did some fine pitching for the team last year. Peggy can count on junior Sally Morgan to pitch to. Sally is a hard hitter, whose all-round ability was a great help to last year’s team. Dee Barrett will be found doing her usual extremely capable job of covering first base. The rest of the team, which will be chosen from last year’s intermural squads, is anybody’s guess. With a few more good players and a little luck, it is hoped that Coach Carroll can mold a winning team. First Row: P. Mawn, M. Kraft, S. St. Clair, P. O’Leary, B. Kneeland.

The 1948 team won three out of SIX meets, beating Melrose, 58-19, and Woburn 51-26, in dual meets and winning the first quad¬ rangular meet, among Winchester, Woburn, Concord, and Melrose, staged at Winchester’s new track. The three meets lost were to Lexington, 40 2 3 to 36 2 3, Arlington, 45-27, and Belmont, 52-25. Winchester came out of the State Meet at Newton with two Class D Champions: Don Berridge in the 220 and Harry Easton on the high hurdles. Their firsts accounted for ten big points, with others from Whip Saltmarsh in the mile. Captain Ben Coe in the quarter, Harry Easton in the high-jump, and Johnny Muehlig in the 220. The loss through graduation of many consistent scorers of last season will leave a big hole to fill in this year’s squad. Coach Henry Knowlton has for veteran material Co-captains Pete Dillingham and Lally Myers, John Meuhlig and John Richmond in the dashes, Tom McGowan and John Sargent in the 440, and Andy Antippas in the half. Last year’s cross country squad should afford some promising material for the distance events, Eisher Wolfe and John Rocray in the half; Ken Blake, Dick Riga and Aidan and Jerry Underwood in the mile. Bill Reid and Dan Devlin are high-jump hopefuls and the shot- putters include Milt Galucia, George Hutchins and Stover Donnell. The new track and facilities should help the squad tremendously, and it only needs a bit of luck in the development of new men to give Winchester another winner this spring. ABERJOHA . 1949 81 Golf eam This year ' s golf team, under Coach Otis Leary, will be co-captamed by Bill and Bob Zirkel, the latter being Junior State Champion. In addition to the Zirkels, there will be the returning lettermen Bob Gagan, and Ted Trott, who will be further assisted by John Morabito, Don Ducharme, Jack Yardley, Kevin Sullivan, and Tom Joy. Winchester belongs to the Northern Division of the Greater Boston Interscholastic Golf League, playing its home games on our Country Club course. Last year the team finished second, just behind Melrose, which in turn lost out to Newton in the League Tournament. There are three divisions within the League: Northern, composed of Malden, Melrose, Reading, Wakefield, and Winchester; Central, com posed of Arlington, Belmont, Cambridge Latin, Lexington, and Rindge Technical (Cambridge); and Southern, comprised of Brookline, Newton, Waltham, Watertown, and Wellesley. The winners of each of these divisions will meet in a round robin tournament the week of June first to decide the League Championship. Later on in June the winner competes in the state tourna- ment.
