We are leaving Winchester High School now, and its task is over, while ours is just beginning. Our aims are high and our purpose steady.

C a rolyn Edgar The entire staff of your yearbook, The Aberjona, has put in many hours under the capable direction of Mr. Ulin toward making this the best issue ever in W'.H.S. . Publicity has been going great guns, the business board even going so tar as to obtain the services of those distinguished celebrities, Bob and Ray, in an all-out drive to gain subscriptions. The statt also has been Working frantically to meet its deadline in order that you may re- ceive your yearbook on time. ln this, it meets stitt competition from the U.S. Armed Forces, Whose material takes top priority with the printer because of the present crisis. In the mleantirne the business stait has been going quietly about its task of selling ads, and amass- ing that wonderful green stuff. This year, as you all know, the school adopted a little Indian as its mascot, and he has taken hold ol our stait artists' pens. Don't be surprised ii you see him popping up here, there, and everywhere. Here it is, your diary, to help you re- call some of the highlights ot the past year. fx .- ' y , XTQ' th t 0 yw, - n'1'l , ,N ,M Um 'I ' fl I X , A75 f ill-.-. 7 f ik A ti f' Q A ft -'ESQ' , A crm. . Dr. Forbes H. Norris, Superintendent Mr. Wade L. Grindle, Principal jlze getaway -- ur rielwli Their job isn't easy and sometimes we make it tough, but times have certainly changed I Back in the days when cars were called Hhorseless car- riages and Grandmother Wore high button shoes, teachers and administra- tors Were hired tor their proficiency with the birch rod. Today, however, We at Winchester know them as friends, ready to help us in a thousand and one ways. Not only have they guided us along the path ot knowledge, but they have been Willing to pause and make personal excursions into the realms of understanding and personal interest. Yes, times at Winchester have certainly changed - for the better. lst Row: O. Iason, H. Knowlton, P, Goodrich, E. Niven, M. Bailey, W. Grindle, E. Stacy, H. Bronson, D. Kotkov, R. Keeney, O.

Butters - Easiest to Get Along With As our junior class adviser, Mr. But- ters guided our Ways last year with his supervision of our Ring and Picture Com- mittees and Prom. His willingness to aid both those poor souls to whom math is a mystery and those industrious mathema- ticians Who dream of finding the fourth dimension finds him holding regular seventh period classes. His Present but not voting? and Thanks for coming reveal the true Hank Butters - the Easiest to Get Along With! Mrs. Ella M. Stacy - Most Exacting Mrs. Stacy, Thrift Association and Prom adviser, although most exacting, is also our most understanding. Her in- terest in us was not as a class, but as individuals, and her inexhaustible knowl- edge of history and current events filled the best of us With awe. Although We may not realize it now, We are truly in- debted to Mrs. Stacy for her interest and patience, and We graduate realizing that We do know Who discovered America ! Mr. Robert M. Keeney - Most Original Mr. Keeney, dean and friend, has greatly enlightened our senior year With his Iessies and Georges His funny class comments and interpretations of Macbeth With Lady Macbeth, the boss, and Duncan, the dope, are most original as Well as amusing. His appreciation of our other Work and his understanding and fairness show how really obliging he is, and We all leave envying his original- ity and character. Mr. Henry K. Pitts - Priendliest With his friendly greeting for each of us, Mr. Pitts well deserves this title be- stowed upon him. He can always be found with a grin and a good word for each of us, if we ever take a peek into his stronghold in Room 14. One of our most versatile teachers, Mr. Pitts can al- ways be found at the Palmer Street courts in the spring. Shakespeare really lives in his classes, and Without his advice, the Red and Black would have an even greater struggle than it already does to survive. Mr. Thomas A. Morse - Best All Around Although he's a relative newcomer to our hallowed halls, Mr. Morse has quick- ly made his influence felt, initiating the Speech Course and taking over the Senior-Iunior play, Radio Workshop and the Dramatic Club. Out of the realm of dramatics, the cinder-men keep him busy on the track both fall and spring. Proof positive that great power comes in small packages, Mr. Morse has, without a doubt, many more talents up those versa- tile sleeves of his, and we in the Class of '51 look back with pride on the days when we initiated him into the mysteries of W.H.S. Dr. Otis E. Alley - Most Eccentric Master of irony Cnot sarcasm, as he will tell youl and wizard of science, Doc Alley reigns supreme in the science labs. As the author of chemistry college boards, he is highly respected by all the seniors, while as adviser of the Science Club, many underclassrnen come to know his ever-ready sense of humor. We all wonder if his sage remarks will be visible in his soon-to-be-published book. Cl fl ML Sweat?

The nation was thrilled by a parade from Washington to Suppatown by President Mirak and his executive cabinet. Due to a slip up in the Treasury, a reward is out for the arrest of Secretary of the Treasury, Honest Don Bates, who is now enjoying himself in an extravagant manner south of the border. Music was supplied by soloist Flying Fingers Ives and Lewie Curtis, his tuba, and his all girl orchestra. Featured were violinists, Muriel Pride and Barbara Langell, bassoonist, Mel Lovci, celloist, Elaine Mingins, cornetist, Charlotte Noel, clarinetist, Mary Stuart, and harpist, Ian Meacham. Among the celebrities around the various tables we spotted syndicated columnist Iohn Borden, able successor to Walter Winchell, and sneering at him from across the floor was his arch rival, Westbrook Hussey. Also attending Were Dorothy Brandt, Metropolitan Opera's sensational new star, Sheila Gray, founder of The Three Books Every Five Weeks Club , Doctor Franceline Cullen, curer of fine wines, Phyllis O'Neil, star of the new musical Where's Denny , and her two producers, Loftus and Foley.

With Mary Ann, was Sue Ordway, renowned teacher of the Suppatown Driving School, Harris MacDonald, gym instructor at Sargent University, lane Chiswell, manager of the Detroit Red Wings, and Marcia Flaherty, president of the G.l.C.

Amidst this happy throng was that melancholy trio, the first three ladies of radio, Dotty Parker, star of Parker Finally Faces 'Life' Louise Kugler, Bob and Ray's new discovery, and Ie-an Parqu- har, originator of the truthful commercial. These three are particularly sad because they now realize that television is sneaking in. Sitting at a ring side table with their feet in the sawdust was the Half Nelson Cult has quite a hold on you D Quartette consisting of Ted Nelson, Ted Lincoln, Ioe Mullen, and Iirn Smith. Across the floor was Mary Mar- garet McEarlane and her half baked half dozen, Marilyn Chase, Mari- lyn Iohnson, Erannie Oliver, Mary Marabella, Vivan Ericson, and Barbara Cogan. Monopolizing the bar was Wall Street magnate Eugene Rotundi and his brokers, Ed Crowley, Frank Lawton, Iim Casey, Francis Mooney, foe Lynch, Eddie Cullen, Paul Carroll, Frank Corby, Eddie Reynolds, Mush Stevenson, and Bill Rand. l , 51 I 523 as-QW?

A prominent table was occupied by Pearl Edgar, Mirak's ambas- sador to Lower Slobovia and her assistants, Carol Hawkins, Carol Crosby, Tom Drohan, and Bob McLaughlin, who have returned to America under investigation as 'reds'. Near them was Iudy Lamprey, Martha Hewins, and Diana Mansfield, manufacturers of Serious Putty. Astride a wooden saw horse was that star of the tin screen, Bounce- along Boyle, with Bouncy was Sonny Crowley, star center for the Celtics. At a dimly lit table for two was the famous French instructor, 'Zeke Hicks, and his best pupil, Mrs. Burns, while coughing over in a corner were the two Doten sisters, manufacturers of Doten Sisters' Flavorless Cough Drops. A cheer of delight went up as Suppatown's three foremost ath- letes entered the hall, Olympic champ Babe Kneeland, and pro-foot- ball stars Tony Cirurso and Obie O'Brien, followed by the nation's leading jockey, Two-Man Callahan. With bowed head, frustrated Eddie Iones entered, as you know, Iones led the expedition to the moon but on his arrival he saw scribbled on the sidewalk, Minnehan was here. Iones has returned to Suppatown, a defeated man. Checking their weapons at two different doors were the sur- vivors of Suppatown's gang war between Bridge Club and Can- asta Club. In the Bridge Club there were Barbara Pearson, lean Roberts, Shirley Roberts, Beverley Carroll, Iinny Moore, Barbara Mulea, Ioan Stanley, Sally Chisholm, lane Robinson, Rose Staffiere, and Gloria Pearson, while in the Canasta Club were Pat Flynn, Ginger Frongillo, Ruth Donnelly, Ann Hooper, Pat Harrold, Betty McHugh, Shirley Crowley, Rosemarie Barbo, Mary O'Melia, and Ann Lindsey. Relaxing in the secluded tranquility of the room's far side was the law firm of Bird, Bolster, Burnham, and Bussey discussing the case of Facciolo vs. the Faculty with the firm of Delay, DeFillipo, and De- Courcey. The party reached its peak upon the entrance of the fabulous owner of the Coco Banana Night Club, Easy Ed Drohan, his junior partner, Sandy 'Bubbles' Burbank, and the chorus line consisting of Pneumonia Smith, Tassels Neiley, Georgia Greenwood, YoYo Young, Whimsical Whiting, Loose Limbs Lincoln, and Riot Ryan, shadowed by their bouncers Iohn 'Udo' Richmond and 'Silent' Bob McElhinney, who in turn were shadowed by their assistants, Russell Neilsen, lohn Hogan, lake Ciarcia, Dom Cirignano, and Ierry Hooper. Featured in the Coco Banana's floor show was Billy Walden, who dived from a one hundred foot tower into a bottle of Windex, cleaning his glasses as he fell. Hopefully failing this group was the Salvation Navy band star- ring 'Hot Lips' McDavitt and his trumpet, 'Hard Knuckles' Surtees, and his tambourine, 'Zoom Zoom' Maher and his base, and Henry Peluso singing loin the Navy and See the Slums. Broadcasting the entire gala affair were Louella Quigley and her guest star, Tallulah Mezzacappa. They covered the party in every detail, even noting the fact that last seen hopping the express to Siberia were your authors, Zeke Hicks, loan Quigley, Eddie Drohan, and Iean F arquhar.

To give every student a voice in the school government, thus encouraging the welfare of the school through the co-operation of pupils and faculty members, is its main purpose. To represent all student organizations under one head is another of its objectives. Among the duties of the Student Council are the electing of a representative from Winchester High School for Good Government Day, and the election of class officers each fall. This year, in addition, a series of Career Assemblies, at which eloquent speakers ad- dressed interested audiences, Was directed by the Student Council. To en- tertain the students and faculty, the Student Council sponsored Hum and Strum at an assembly, and it also conducted its annual Valentine Stag Dance. .gluclenf Kounci lst Row: C. Zimmerman, H.

However, the members of the traffic squad have had What it takes, and they have done a fine job in keeping order in the corridors between periods. Although little success Was attained in al- leviating the crowded conditions around lockers, the year, as a Whole, was very successful. For the most part, the success of this year's traffic squad was due to Captain Bob Mirak and Mr. Cooper, the faculty advisor, who made sure that no romancing was carried on While the officers were on duty. Wafiona! .Honor Sociefy s or Membership in the National Honor Society is the most thrilling and gratify- ing reward bestowed upon Winchester High's deserving students. To be eligible for this society, one must pos- sess qualities of leadership, service, character, and scholarship. Merely five per cent of the junior class is selected for membership. They are chosen by a very thorough method of elirninationg the whole class votes from a list of the upper third of the class, and the top people elected are voted upon by the faculty. Seniors' percent- age of eligibility is fifteen per cent of the class. WHS's chapter of this so- ciety has thus far been chiefly honor- ary. Established five years ago, it has been directed by Mr. Keeney and Miss Bronson. Left to Right: H. MacDonald, P. O'Neil, D. Archibald, A. Watson, R. Mirak. Qui! an Sro Since l949, Quill and Scroll, an international honorary society for high school journalists, has existed at WHS. The society assists the school paper in all fields of journalism by providing critical service and contests, both of which tend to improve publications. A member of Quill and Scroll must be of junior or senior standing, be in the upper third of his class scholastically, and must have done outstanding work in his field of journalism. New mem- bers are chosen and initiated at the end of each year when they have shown their achievements. Quill and Scroll is the goal of WHS journalists. lst Row: P. O'Neil, C. Hawkins, P.

Now in its twelfth consecutive year, the Red and Black. the school paper, is still the vocal organ of WHS. Opening the year with an early issue, the '50-'Sl staff carried the torch until Ianuary, when it was turned over to a new bumper crop of text book junior-journalists. Several outstanding in- novations were introduced by both staffs in '50-'5l. A new size of sheet made its appearance on the first issue, the omni-original juniors developed a new and more artistic nameplate, better news writing, coupled with Sachem Shorts and the news brief column gave more complete coverage of school news, use of one type-family headlines plus the strategic use of photographs created an eye-pleasing paper, circulation was increased by the printing of such exclusives as Senior Superlatives and the ballots for the Vaudeville Beauty Contest. Combining their talents to beat the deadlines for the ten issues and produce worthwhile papers, those who served on the Red and Black staffs found in it an activity well worth the expended time and effort. lst Row: P.

Not only did they equal most of the records set by previous classes, they surpassed a great deal of them by vast sums. The first drive of the year, the membership drive, was met by lUU'X. of the school. Another good example Was the cloth- ing drive. Each year WHS sends used clothing to children in Europe. This year the past record number of fifteen bags sent, Was boosted to twenty.

This year, with a membership of approximately forty students. the club attacked such concrete problems as that of cliques and snobs and explored other questions of universal interest. The discussions Were led by President Bill Carleton with Mr. Skerry acting as faculty advisor and mediator. Archie Bolster was elected Vice-President and Carolyn Edgar, Secretary. The Philosophy Club provides an ideal sounding-board for those who enjoy friendly debate and exchange of ideas. This year, also, acting on the sup- position that one thinks better with a full stomach, the Club has been working to include refreshments in its meetings. The meeting in which Harrison Chad- wick spoke about socialism and the government was much looked forward to and much enjoyed. Although not pretending to solve the problems of the World, nevertheless the members have a good time tossing about theories and ideas and finding out just what their neighbors think. lst Row: S.

The annual Senior-Iunior class play, a major production, Was Death Takes a Holiday. It also ably represented W.H.S. at the Massachusetts State Drama Festival, which was held at Newton High School. An innovation, an Apprentice Play, was given in the spring at the club's final meeting of the year, with a cast consisting of players without previous experience. Mem- bers of the Dramatic Club made up two theatre parties to Emerson College productions, and as a major project have been searching for a descriptive name for the club which will be instituted next year.

A major part of the advertising for the Red and Black has been done by this industrious group. Guest speakers and movies have been shown to the enjoyment of all. Posters galore have been turned out by members for Vaudeville, dances, and the class play. Also for many weeks before the class play, hard-working Daubers could be found winding roses to make up background scenes for the annual production. Place cards for patients in various hospitals were adorned with entertaining illustrations. This spring the club invited students from art schools and lecturers to come to ex- plain their own works of art plus some famous paintings done by the masters. All students who were interested in art found the Daubers a very enjoyable and profitable organization. I I lst Row: C. Zimmerman, L. Cullen, A. Fiorenza, N. Morse, S. Wadsworth, H. Hooper.

Because of the large number of band members who graduated last year, Mr. Felmet put in many long hours of hard work to bring the band up to the high standards set by Winchester bands in previous years, and his efforts were well rewarded. With its snappy red and black uniforms, the band added a great deal to the football games by playing all types of football songs and by executing novel half-time maneuvers. The band played at the Tech Tourney at Boston Garden, took part in the Memorial Day Parade, the opening of the EnKa Fair, the state Music Festival at Marblehead, and graduation, as well as putting on a concert for the school and a public concert. In all of these events the band was a credit to the town, the school, and to Mr. Felmet. lst Row: M. L. Armstrong, M. Smith, A. Barbaro, N. Anderson, S. Cunningham, C. Padelford L. Whiting, W.

Although many of the best musicians Winchester has ever had graduated last year, the string section Was enlarged and a bassoon added giving the orchestra more body and better quality. A dual concert with the Arlington High School Orchestra highlighted this year along with the annual Spring Concert and State Music Festival. Such popular numbers as Sleigh Ride by Anderson and The Way You Look Tonight by Ierome Kern delighted the Arlington and Winchester audi- ences While the more serious pieces were also Well received. Mr. Fred Felmet again worked hard With the twenty-seven piece group, and together they did a splendid job. This year the officers were Annette Barbaro, President, Sonia Smith, Vice-President, and Edgar Hammond, Secretary-Treasurer. A OCTETTE AND GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Octette and the Girls' Glee Club, two of the outstanding musical organizations in the high school, which possess a large amount of eye and ear appeal, have been particularly active this year under the able leadership of Miss Eleanor Anifantis. Among their many outside appearances, they have given polished performances before such audiences as the Rotary Club, Fortnightly, High School Parents and Faculty Association, and the Men's Club ot the First Congregational Church. They have also participated in assemblies, Vaudeville, and the Spring Concert. All in all it has been a very successful year.

The play is based upon the poetic idea ot Death's resigning trom his usual duties for a holiday of three days, during which time he falls in love with a delicate, sensitive girl. Earl Carrier, as Death, gave an exceptional performance, while Dorothy Brandt, the young girl with Whom he tolls in love, was a perfect Grazia. Sona Norian as the Princess, Midge Dexter as Rhoda, Shelia Gray as Alda, Carolyn Buracher as Stephanie, and Diane Greer as the maid, inserted the necessary Wornan's touch, While lost Michel- sen as the Duke, Iohn Borden as the Baron, Dick Rush as Corrado, Ron Mac- Kenzie as Eric, Dave Archibald as the Major, and Harold Quigley as the butler, added the needed he-man support. Despite illness, which necessitated jug- gling the cast at the lost minute, this year's play was easily one of the most popular yet. pfedentej 1 V jf ,, N Q I rf L 3, , .. f A J A s Wk, ' aw F , - f Qgwff' , , f'Z1. ..

The purpose of the organization is to promote good sportsmanship in athletics. The club also extends help to all members of varsity sports who are having study difficulties. ln past years the club has brought a number of very spec- tacular exhibitions to Winchester High. Last year it brought the much talked about Springfield College Gym Team to Winchester, and this year it ran a dance to celebrate our successful basketball team. The profits of all these functions have been donated to the AA. to pay for the movies taken of the football games. The driving forces behind this club have been President, Tony Cirursog Vice-President, Prep Keyes, Treasurer, Iost Michelseng Secretary, Charles Murphy, and Faculty Advisor Coach Knowlton.

At first Winchester was rather shaky on defense because of the concentration on the new offense and they barely squeaked by Milton and Swampscott, 13-12 and 8-U, but in the real test against Watertown, Win- chester played one of its better games, a 7-6 triumph. The Sachems rolled over their next three opponents, Winthrop, Stoneham, and Framingham. The team met its Waterloo, however, when a strong Reading team downed the Indians 13-U. But Winchester rebounded from this defeat and rolled over Belmont and Wakefield before entering the annual clash with Woburn. Again for the second year, Winchester rooters saw their team lose a victory. On the last play of the game Winchester apparently drove over for the winning T.D. only to have the officials deny it, the score remaining 7-7. The team's final record: eight wins, one tie and one loss. jiefcl .Aloclwy Using their sticks to advantage, the girls' hockey team came through the season with flying colors. Captain Iean Farquhar led her team-mates to a fine season's record of six wins, two ties, and one heartbreaking loss. As goalie, Iean allowed her opponents to slide only eight goals past her, While Winchester racked up a sensational total of thirty tallies. Paced by center Bette Kneeland, leading scorer with twenty points, the forward line saw to it that the girls on their defense weren't overworked. However, when these dependable lassies went to work, the forwards knew they had nothing to worry about - the ball would be back to them in a matter of seconds. Near the middle of the season, the girls traveled to Concord for the annual playday in which twenty-siic schools participated. There, although winning only one game to the two they dropped, Winchester was honored by having left wing Iean Neiley, center Bette Kneelend, and center half-back Harris MacDonald chosen for the All-Star Squad. Captain Iean did an excel- lent job defending the Reserve All-Stars' goal against her team-mates. Coach Helen Carroll and Manager Sue Ordway, with their optimism and their side- line comments, were invaluable in bringing the girls through their successful season. lst Row: L. Stevens, R. Peel, H.

Morse, the Winchester High School Harriers experienced an excellent season, placing 7th in Class B at the state meet. Winchester Won live out of its seven meets, winning over Wellesley, Essex Aggies, Concord, and Revere, losing only the first two meets ot the season, to Everett Vocational and Woburn, a record which proved the constantly strong brand of running shown by Winchester all season. Com- peting against the same teams in the annual Divisional Meet our harriers placed second. The Iunior Varsity, While not doing as Well in the Divisional, won six out of seven of their dual meets, losing only to Woburn. The highest scorers during the season were Co-Captain Gordon Bird, Charles Murphy and Peter Coon. Next year's team, to be led by Captain-elect Charlie Murphy, promises to carry on WHS's tradition as legmen supreme. lst Row: T. Mansfield, D. Pallidino, I. Becker, H. Morgan, B. Mclntyre, L.

Under the able leadership of Captain Neiley, the team established a three-win, two- loss, one-tie record. The 41-41 tie with Concord was a heartbreaking affair, Concord coming from behind in the last quarter. Lexington, Melrose, and Belmont were all victims, Lexington by one point. The starting sextette was chosen from guards Harris MacDonald, Carol Hawkins, and Iane Chiswell and forwards Bette Kneeland, Meimz Damon, and Iean Neiley. Iunior guards Bugs Smith, Ian Easton, Ian Collins, Iudy Snell, and Lynne Stevens, using their height to advantage, filled in admirably when called upon, as did sopho- more forward Sonny Smith. High scoring honors went to Iean Neiley with a total of 60 points, 27 in the Lexington game. The second team swept through a most successful season to end with a 6-0 record. The fine record of both teams Was due to the excellent coaching of Miss Carroll and Miss Barnes and the work of the managers Marcia Flaherty, Martha Whiting, and Ruthie Peel. lst Row: Mr. Knowlton, P.

Young and inexperienced, the Winchester Varsity basketball team proved to be the surprise of the Middlesex League. Undeteated in eight games of league play, they finally lost on the home court of a strong Lexington outfit which had been picked as the favorite for the title. The only other set back for the Indians was a close one at Stoneham. Final standings showed Winchester tied for the Middlesex League title with Lexington, each with 12 wins and 2 losses, winners of the Small Schools Tourney, and invited to the Tech Tourney. Coach Ted Bartlett did a great job in shaping a young and green group ol players into a high scoring, closely-knit unit. The team established a new high scoring record for a season's play in the history of Win- chester High. The seven man varsity consisted of Iohnny Dilorio and Stowell Symmes at forward, Doug Hawkins and Rod Long at center, and Charlie Murphy, Iohnny Farrell and Tony Cirurso at guard. Tony was the only senior on the team, the other six being juniors. Next year holds great promise. With six of the seven letter men returning, it is reasonable to expect that the l95l-52 team also will be a strong contender for the championship. .gocgey Despite poor weather the Winchester High Hockey Team completed a reasonably successful season with a record of one win, two defeats and three ties. Sonny McLaughlin led the scoring honors with eight points, followed by Ron MacKenzie with four points. Dave Fessenden, Woozy Giacalone, and Dave Dalton all had one point apiece. The season opened with a 4-4 tie with Wilmington and was followed by a 5-l defeat by Stoneharn. Two more games with Wilmington ended in 2-2 and 0-0 ties, and Stoneham was defeated 4-0 in a return match. Finally, the Winchester Pucksters traveled to Wilmington for a final game to break the existing ties. The game was closer than the 3-1 defeat showed as both teams pressed each other fiercely throughout the game. Dave Dalton scored the lone goal and Goalie Bill Rand made many difficult saves. Rand had five goals scored on him in the six games during the season and he produced two shutouts. The starting lineup: g. Bill Rand. l.d. Carle Zimmerman, r.d. Gerry MacNeill, c.

Q 5 Q This year's golf team looks forward to a much more successful season than last year. Last year the team lost all its matches, but this year, with a large number of returning men, the boys hope to do much better. This year's team is captained by junior George Haggerty and has Don Lewis, Danny McLaughlin, Iohn Pearson, Sam Rocray, and Terry Tolman all contending strongly for berths. The basis for this year's high hopes, beside the large number of returning men, is the fact that whereas Winchester lost only two men at last year's graduation, most of their opponents lost five and even six men. Therefore this season looks very promising for our golfers. lst Row: D. McLaughlin, I. Pearson, G. Haggerty, V. Honsinger, D. Lewis. 2nd Row: R McTighe, C. Tallman, Mr. Leary, S. Rocray, P.

Led by Cap- tain Carol Hawkins, the regulars hope to blast their opponents one by one, especially in their key matches with Belmont and Winsor School. The re- tuning varsity racqueteers, Iane Chiswell, Virginia Dyer, Mary Anne Damon and Sue Morton, will have to look to their laurels since there is strong second team material from which to draw. Manager Carol Edgar's unique sense of humor will give the team the needed push to victory.

The Winchester High School Tennis Team has opened the season on the backboards and is getting into shape rapidly. The team has two return- ing lettermen in Co-Captains Langdon Smith cmd Iohn Borden, and with com- petent IV's in Sandy Burbank and Dave Archibald plus a likely looking fresh- man prospect in Harry Von Rosenvinge, it ought to do well in this year's pro- posed schedule. This season a number of other high school teams have been taken on, thereby making a more balanced schedule between the public high school and private school matches. Last year's team lost a number oi matches to private schools while making an impressive record against the public high schoolsg therefore this year's team will have a greater chance to prove themselves in their own class. The team will sorely miss the greater depth of players that has prevailed in previous years, but we look forward to an excellent record, it not a state championship. Soma! On the arrival ot the first robin, the softball squad, equipped with red dungarees, will start What promises to be a successful season. They Will be coached by Sargent student instructor, Mildred Barns, and captained by Bette Kneeland, Who has been sole possessor of the keystone sack since her sopho- more year. Also returning with Bette from last year's line-up will be six juniors, three strong armed outfielders, Bugs Smith, Ian Collins, and Lynne Stevens, last year's starting pitchers, Anna Fiorenza and Gretchen Daschbach, and short stop Diane Greer, who led the team in batting last year. Three positions remain unfilled, but there are several able sophomores bidding for the jobs. With a year of experience behind them, this team seems likely to be one of the best in the history ot Winchester. lst Row: G. Daschbach, I, Collins, D. Greer, M. Smith, B. Kneeland, L. Stevens, A.

HCLJQLCLZ The Winchester High baseball team looks forward to a much better year after last year's sparse season. The Sachems have seven returning let- terrnen from last year, and from these seven they have two excellent pitchers in Charlie Murphy and Stowell Symmes. The catcher's berth is left vacant cmd is one of the two spots that Coach Bartlett will be seeking to fill. The infield shapes up fairly well with Ed Crowley at first, Captain Tony Cirurso at second, Iohn Dilorio at third, and the shortstop position still to be filled. Although Prep Keyes seems to have the only settled outfield berth, the vacancies should be easy to fill. The team also has a wealth of reserves in Bob Flaherty, Iim Griffin, Pete Coon, Iost Michelsen, Dave Dalton, Dave Russo, and Charlie McLaughlin. Another fact that helps these boys is that most of them played Iunior Legion ball last summer, thereby gaining experience as individuals and a unit. W lst Row: P. Keyes, S. Syrnrnes, C. Murphy, P.

As usual, the running events are pretty well covered, but there is not too much depth in material for the field events. There are eight returning lettermen, most of these dashmen. Co-captains Bob O'Brien and Iohnny Richmond, Zeke Hicks, Tom Wilder, Bruce Corthell, and Dick Brooks all received letters in the 100 and 220 yard dashes last year. A combination of any few of these runners forms a very formidable relay team. The mainstays in the distances are half miler Iohn Foley and miler Buzzey Bird, Bruce Corthell should give a good account of himself in the high jump, and Iohnny Richmond should get a few points for his broad jumping. Sandy Burbank is expected to enter the shot-put this year and give the team quite a boost in that field. Sandy has been practicing on his own, and he has announced his intention of going out this spring. With some promising legmen up from the I.V. and Freshman teams of last year, W.H.S. can look forward to a well-rounded track team. WOJQPI1 6ll'lCe Here's to the gals in the black leotards !
