Robert Morgan Keeney 3tt iHIpmnnam Head of the Winchester High School English Department for twenty-five years, Robert Keeney personified the high principles of character, scholarship, and leadership for which he stood. All of us who were privileged to know him will long remember him for the warmth of his personality and for his quiet understanding. Kind and considerate, devoted to his high calling, Mr. Keeney inspired many of us with both the will and desire to learn. His quiet humor, his implicit trust in us, and his friendly guidance endeared him to his students. Far more than a teacher, sharing his philosophy with us, “Tex” Keeney was our friend and confidant. Each of us mourns his passing as a personal loss. We do, however, face the future far richer for having known and loved him. Four No other country offers its youth what this country offers us. In this land of freedom and equality there is endless opportunity for all. Some of us are destined to become the political, economic, and social leaders of our country; while even more will be numbered in the greater mass of the steadfast citizenry. As we leave Win¬ chester High School, we will share in the burdens of our fellow countrymen in upholding the democratic principles which have made this nation what it is. Winchester High School has pre¬ pared us to meet our responsibilities squarely. The school has done its job well. Now, it is our duty to prove it an effort well expended. The integ¬ rity, responsibility, and knowledge which have been stressed throughout the past four years should be reflected in our actions and deeds of the future. We shall always look back on our formative years at Winchester High School with infinite gratitude for the training given us to meet the chal¬ lenges of a troubled world !

Msmlona Sia Under the direction of Gretchen Luitwieler, editor-in-chief, Ruth Freeman, Joan Morrison, Peggy Weafer, and Lane Emerson the 1955 ABERJONA came to life. Aiding this editorial board were many students whose support was invaluable. Among these were Linda Cederholm, Janice Hashey, Christine Fentross, and Janet Fisher who drew the many sketches and cartoons used in the book; Bill McCormack and his circulation staff whose time and effort were rewarded by breaking all previous ABERJONA sales records; and the advertising staff headed by Ruth Flaherty, Sue Clark, and Dell Mitchell who worked hard and long obtaining the necessary ads. Of course, we can’t forget Mr. Ulin whose timely advice helped avoid many complications. Finally, after many hours spent in picking photographs and sketches, proof-reading copy, and organizing material came the 1955 yearbook, we hope, the best ever. Six Francis Xavier Finigan We, the Class of 1955, dedicate this, our Aberjona, to Francis X. Finigan. Your friendliness, patience, unfailing sense of humor, and “abnormal strength” will remain with us long after the physics and geom¬ etry are forgotten. Your very able coaching, versatility, and sportsmanship will become an integral part of our memory of you. Mathematician Coach Physicist Seven (MminidJjiJcdwn Dr. Harry V.

We have not only gained knowledge, but through their combined ef¬ forts we have learned to respect knowledge. We wish them continued success and hope that others will benefit as we have, from their patience, understanding, and vast knowledge. To the administration we also give our thanks for the confidence they have had in us and for the work they have done to put our school up at the top, to give us a better education. We hope that we have, in return, measured up to their expectation of us. Nine • • (Bsdiws it oh not {Seated) O. Leary, L. Winn, A. Butters, H. Bronson, O. Alley, E. Stacy. (Standing) R. Keeney, D.

Bucky Morgan, Pete Gove, Sharon Hartridge, and Jim Wright were elected our first class officers to set us off on the right foot. Some memorable events were . . . our football, basketball, and baseball victories under the captains Mike Murphy, Bill Ross, and Lou Farrell . . . Treasure Island with Miss Bailey . . . the Tech Tourney and our coming home with the New England Class B championship . . . our own cheerleaders with Mickie Coon to head them . . . the 20th annual vaudeville show with two brother-sister teams, Steve and Stephie Yale and George and Noreen Johnson . . . sitting way up there at assemblies when we were lucky enough to go . . . our first mid-years . . . our own traffic squad and office department . . . the low drinking fountains . . . and the weak gratings on the floor. Having success¬ fully completed our first year at WHS, we passed on to bigger and better things up on the hill Our second year at WHS found us at last in the big building, confused, but glad to be among the upperclassmen. We got our feet on the ground, however, and chose as our leaders, Bobby Amundsen, Charlie Govostes, Nancy Donaghey, and Bill Ross. We will never forget . . . new lockers . . . Mr. Finigan’s 2-year old who could do any problem in the book ... all of Gaul, which is divided into three parts . . . the trips back to Wadleigh to become orators . . . Mike Murphy and Bill Coleman representing our class on the varsity football team . . . Anne Marks, Stephie Yale, Connie Snelling, and Joanie Sweetser cheering on the varsity . . . the first appearance of the Tumblettes . . . commotion caused by the new boilers . . . the stubborn donkey basketball game and the rocking-horse race between halves . . . the week-end at Kennett . . . the German measles epidemic . . . the spirit displayed in the Garden at the unforgettable Tech Tourney . . . Mr. Fitts’s stupendous vaudeville show . . . that inevitable spring fever . . . another fight with the finals, and then onward to become “upperclassmen”. And then we w ere—Juniors. Bob Deroo, Charlie Govostes, Nancy Samarco, and Betty Bellino were voted into office for the year. The football season ended with a mighty triumph over Woburn. Lou Farrell and Dick Borggaard became cross-country co-captains. Remember how we Juniors took our turn at arguing with Doctor Alley . . . driver education with Mr. Branley . . . the long wait for class rings ... the hours and hours of rehearsal and the final production of the Fortune Teller . . . and the halfway mark with mid-years. Meanwhile, basketball was underway . . . the paper tearing parties . . . the trips to the garden . . . the triumph over powerful Belmont . . . Jim’s one-hander in the sudden-death overtime, defeating Lexington . . . winter vacation and the party of Juniors at Mount Pero. Back to school with Mr. Hayward taking over the vaudeville, again carrying it on to one of his best shows . . . the classmates who made the National Honor Society Thirtv-.set ' en . . . the talented ones taken to the National Thespian Society . . . Bill Ross bein.s; awarded the Harvard Book Prize . . . our memorable first prom in the Oriental Gardens . . . Anne Marks and Dotty Pratt at Girls’ State . . . Niles Nelson and Seth Weston at Boys’ State . . . Mr. Bartlett and Mr. Felmet leaving . . . our final finals. Thus we quit the hallowed halls for the summer, eager to return as Seniors. After a fun-filled summer, we found ourselves Seniors, facing respon¬ sibilities as we moved into the driver’s seat. Warren Goodnow, Charlie Govostes, Nancy Donaghey, and Joyce Nelson were chosen to lead us through our last year. Looking back we’ll always remember Mike leading his Sachems to a decisive victory over last year’s stumbling block. Concord . . . Pete Gove’s entertaining jokes as he presided over the A A assemblies . . . the kick line at our last football rally . . . Winchester spelled out in the Woburn end zone . . . Connie as the D.A.R. good citizen . . . the lucky few accepted in December without college boards . . . avoiding Steve’s experi¬ ments in the halls . . . Bill Ross as our Good Government Day representative . . . getting sweet revenge over Woburn’s hockey and basketball teams . . . enduring Tex’s shoulder massages during his comedy hour with The Tragedy of Macbeth . . . the sighs of relief as we handed in our last mid-years . . . the rounds of applause after our successful Jr.-Sr. play . . . carrying home our physics books to make way for the spelling books of the Jr. High . . . the fight for Epics . . . cramming for creating correct college boards . . . another successful vaudeville for Mr. Hayward . . . the trips to Borings . . . college acceptances . . . the pretty pastels and the terrific tuxes at the prom . . . seeing our friends leave school early to enter into the business world . . . our own class night . . . and finally graduation. Thus, concluding the final chapter in the class of ’55, we find ourselves wiser and more cap¬ able citizens for having attended Winchester High School.

We’re at Kallis’s Kangaroo Club on the corner of 49th and 5th where this evening’s feature attraction is that famous recording star of B.L.T. (Borggaard, Lanigan, and Tilson), Miss Nancy Samarco, accompanied by Severino’s Silver Sextet. The Long Cuts; Dave Rotondi, Tony Mucera, Nancy Donaghey, and Ann Titilah are also appear¬ ing due to the courtesy of Dandy Dave Dayton’s Diaper Service. “Here comes my partner, Connie Snelling, to give you the feminine slant on this gala event. Take it away Connie! “Hi Brad. Isn’t this exciting! I met Mary Burton, who just arrived from the Mexican Road Race where she ran away with top honors averaging 110 MPH. Alice Nolan, Marilyn Casalinuovo, Pat Mclntire, and Lolly Luongo, those cute kangaroos, providing the guests with cigarettes (Bing¬ ham’s Best Cork Tips), were lured from their jobs at the Latin Quarter by Steve’s wily personnel manager. Chuck Cogan. Leading the fashion parade is thrice divorced Nance Fletcher, wearing a Fentross original of black lace over pea-green satin with six feet of train. Brad, where have you been? “I walked into the Men’s Lounge and bumped into Seth Weston, who was having a drink with his Stage Manager, Dann Lewis, before another performance of the current hit, ‘North Atlantic’ by Corey and Folkers. This place seems to be full of theatrical people tonight, for at the bar I met Niles Nelson, who is starring in Broadway’s latest hit, ‘The Celebrated Swede’, adapted from Tom Sawyer’s novel, ‘Lowcuts and Me’. Niles was having a Winchester Highball with Mike Murphy, who’s coaching a profes¬ sional gym team named Mike’s Muscle Men. After a pleasant chat I hap¬ pened to hear two men arguing about areonautical strategy. I turned to find Pete Gamage ard Tim Hennessey. Pete is a specialist in the U. S. Night Fighters, and Tim flies jets in the Irish Air Force. Here comes Bill Ross with a sack full of Henrietta Hall’s Homemade Hankies. He’s trying to persuade Sir Cecil Pride, who’s teaching Shakespeare at Oxford, Owen Reardon, oil tycoon, and Jay Robinson, head of the History Dept, at Stacy University, to buy them. Bill swears that Chuck Newton and Art Sullivan, who signed with the Blue Sox, use them to dust off the plate. (Chuck mar¬ ried the umpire’s daughter!) I found out that Gretchen Long can’t be with us tonight. She married a head-hunter and is honeymooning in Africa. Talking about Africa, I’d like to tell you of two ambassadors to the con¬ tinent. Rowe Ghirardini is ambassador to Tanganyika and Gardiner Smith is ambassador to Rhodesia. Senator Bob Corby is investigating the case of U. S. Citizen Ray Jenkins who mysteriously disappeared on one of his voyages advertised as Jenkins’ Junkets for Filted Fessies. “I just got a postcard from Leanne Beukelman and Gretchen Luitwieler, who are on a United Nations good-will tour and stopped at Ingrid Brendel’s place in Germany. Did you see Dee Dee Ring with that five carat diamond on her toe? Joyce Nelson and Sandra Chapman have left for Reno with their ballplayer hubbies for spring training. Having a smoke in the Ladies’ Lounge were Ann Mills, editor of Nineteen Magazine, Lorraine DiZio, Leora Peckham and Betty Bellino. They were gabbing about the wonderful hot dog stew they had at Dickie’s Drive-In Carfeteria on Spaulding Ave. Lorraine, Leora and Betty, the Bouncing Buffaloes, are now wrestling at Madison Square Garden. Officiating at the bouts is Jim Wright. Liberace’s right hand lady, Marilyn DiSilva, just rushed over to say that she saw Paul Reardon stuffed in a Dinasaur cage. Dr. Anne Marks was the taxidermist who did the rare feat. Here comes Charlie Brown, who has purchased Benson’s Animal Farm, accompanied by Frank Cullen, an animal trainer, for P. T. Barnard’s (you know, Joan) Circus. Roy, the hair stylist, Carlson has Margie Bane and Wayne Cowles, modeling the latest in Forty-six hair colors. Here’s R. R. Freeman who has it straight off the Hollywood wire, “Hello everybody; here’s some news about those Movie Mongals. Dick Gaffney is an up and coming producer at G-M-G (Gaffney-Mandeville- Gove). Pete is Hollywood’s second Bing Crosby while Bruce is known as Marlon Brando Mandeville, Sue Woodruff captured the title role in their latest production, “Little Blue Riding Hood.” Playing opposite her as the Big Bad Wolf is Joe Keating. Dave Gowing made a million last Christmas selling mistletoe at the corner of Hollywood and Vine. Dell Mitchell and Sal Phelan are modeling band-aids!

The Council was active in September selling its supply of bookcovers and decals. The freshmen found out about the labyrinth of school activities at an assembly under Student Council auspices. During the first week in October the class elections were managed efficiently by the representatives. The student body elected Bill Ross to represent WHS at Good Government Day at the State House The constitution was en¬ tirely revised by a committee and will become effective in September, 1955. Under the new Constitution the Student Council will have broader jurisdiction over other school organ¬ izations. Delegates were sent to two conven¬ tions of the Eastern Massachusetts Division of Student Councils. On the entertainment side, the students’ tastes in music were polled, and the results were featured at the very successful Council-sponsored dance on March 26. Officers for the year were President, Connie Snelling; Vice-president, Rich Rim¬ bach ; Secretary, Dorothy Pratt; Treasurer, Charlie Govostes. Fifty-jour Roil ' 1, E. Hood, C. Ayer, B. Rowlingson, J.

QhDAA This organization proved beyond all doubt that it could meet the chal¬ lenge of double session by topping many previous records. In the fall t he school-wide membership drive reached 1009 and great financial success. Each month brought a different project, often a collection or financial contribution to a worthwhile cause. During the course of the year Christ¬ mas cards and phonograph records were collected for the veterans at the Bedford Hospital. Contributions were made to polio victims and the United Children’s Fund. The Winchester Hospital was provided with four mag¬ azine subscriptions and protective covers. Due to the shortened homeroom period, meetings were scheduled after school and presided over by Anne Marks, president; Dell Mitchell, vice- president; Jill Sibley, secretary; and Bill Mason, treasurer. Miss Bronson, as advisor, did much to encourage the efforts of the Executive Board and school to make 1954-55 a very successful year for the Junfor Red Cross. Fifty-five WINCHESTER PUBLIC LIBRARY WINCHESTER, MASS. •SS- , JJtQ (Rsjd and (Black At the close of its seventeenth consecutive year, the Red and Black still serves the school community, presenting the WHS news nine times annually. The senior staff, headed by Co-editors, Seth Weston and Judy Roberts and under the watchful eyes of Mr. Fitts and Miss Skornik, suc¬ cessfully published the issues of October, November, and December, at which time they turned the paper over to the junior journalists, who pro¬ duced the remaining issues. Several outstanding innovations were introduced by both staffs. Running parallel to Senior Sketches was the new column. Captains’ Corner, both of which employed larger pictures. Looking Ahead, a column listing the important dates of future school activities, was another new feature. The freshmen column. Freshmen Fragments, be¬ came a regular member of the Red and Black family. With Snelling’s S’nopsis the social news of the school was given wider coverage. For the most part a standard nameplate was used. In the final analysis all concerned felt that the time and effort consumed in publish¬ ing the Red and Black was more than worth- . while.

Then, on the basis of the combined vote of students and faculty, not more than fifteen per cent of the Senior Class and not more than five per cent of the Junior Class are admitted. The names of the new members are read in May at the in¬ duction service conducted by those already in the organization. Miss Bron¬ son and Mr. Keeney are advisors. QjujlU and S JwU. Who, why, when, and where are likely to be the first questions of the members of Quill and Scroll. It was for the ardent, hardworking journalists that this honorary or¬ ganization was added to WHS in 1949. Anyone who is in the upper third of his class scholastically and has shown special achievement in some field of journalism is eligible. The National Quill and Scroll also contributes to the improvement of school publications by annual con¬ tests and constructive criticism. Row 1, J. Morrison, R. Freeman, C. Snelling, .J. Sweetser, S.

Fifty-eight ( wdain and Qm As a new venture this year, the club sponsored the One Act Play Night for which each class presented a play that was judged and rated. It was decided, because this endeavor was so successful, that it would become an annual production. A permanent plaque, the Marian Bailey Trophy, was presented to the best play. Goodbye to the Cloivn, given by the Juniors. Also awards went to Darla Hall, best actress; Dick Thompson, best actor; Liz Hood, best supporting actress; Donald Folkers, best supporting actor; and Jean McKenzie, best director. Then combining with the orchestra and glee clubs, another joint presentation of “Christmas at WHS” was given. Because of the double session, there were three meetings and few theater parties. As usual, a play was sent to the Massachusetts Drama Festival. Leading the club this year, under the able direction of Mr. Morse, were Seth Weston, president; Ginny Wadsworth, vice-president; Barbara Eaton, secretary; and Bob Becker, treasurer. Roia 1, P.

Throughout the entire year, ninety-nine per cent of the students put aside money for their accounts each week. In spite of the shortened banking period. Presi¬ dent Brad Johnson and his two assistants. Bob Becker and Jim Fitzgerald, did a fine job in getting the envelopes to Room 13 before the bell sounded. After Secretary Sue Clark and her assistants, Ellen Glowacki and Linda Branneman, had compiled the totals, Joan Barnard typed up the results for the school. Much of the credit is due to the homeroom teachers and the student bankers who worked faith¬ fully throughout the year to meet the 8:20 deadline. ' i Row 1, B. Colman, C. Stevens, J. Day, D.

Seaman Qlub Under the able leadership of Dr. Alley, the Science Club began to roll after the Christmas vaca¬ tion. Forty-six students interested in science signed up, and elections were held. Ray Jenkins came out on top in the race for president, with Dick Bingham as vice-president, Gail Purrington as secretary, and Dave Dayton as treasurer. The club members chose Frank Cullen, Dianne Curtis, Bill McCormack, and Dale Townley-Tilson to serve on the Executive Board. Meetings later in the year will feature movies on scientific subjects and demonstrations by club members. Plans are also being made to visit the Science Museum in Boston and the telephone com¬ pany. SixtY-two l YLcdh Qlub Getting off to a late start this year, the Math Club held its first meeting in early January. Mr. Butters explained the function of the club, following which officers were chosen. Steve Kallis was elected president and Warren Goodnow, secretary. The club then attempted to solve some problems presented by members of the Math TV class. Although plans for the spring are indefinite, they will probably include more meetings such as the first one in which interesting problems will be presented to the club. Row 1, M. Burton, A.

Club The Philosophy Club started the year off with a bang when Ingrid Brendel, a WHS senior from Germany, gave a talk on life and customs of her native land. The meetings included speeches on many current world problems. Among the subjects discussed were racial prejudice, smuggling, crime, and narcotics. At the end of each talk was a discus¬ sion period when aspiring philosophers asked questions and added their own knowledge of the subject. The Philosopher of WHS, Mr. Skerry, helped to keep the meetings in order and start the discussion periods. The ofRcers-elect were Carolyn Curry, president; Bob Page, vice-president; Sheila Lanigan, secretary; Carol Ashendon, assistant secretary. From the meetings the members learned not only how to understand current problems but also what to do about them. Roio 1, P. Newhall, D. d’Elseaux, B. Sargent, S. Lanigan, C. Curry, R. Page, C.

It is partly an educational and partly a social club. At the meetings talks and movies are presented to teach the mem¬ bers something about the culture and living habits of people in Spanish-speaking coun¬ tries. Among the Club Cervantes’ activities are the annual “get-acquainted” cook-out at the beginning of the year, the banquet held after mid-year exams to initiate new mem¬ bers, and the spring barbecue given in honor of the graduating members. An added at¬ traction this year was the trip into the Schu¬ bert Theater to see Ballet Espagnol, a Span¬ ish dance group. Mr. Kotkov lent his willing hand as advisor of the club to President, Diana d’Elseaux; Secretary, John Lynch; and Treasurer, Bob Smith. Sixty-five Row 1, H. Gardner, G. Gowdy, J. Ghirardini, P.

(Band The band has enjoyed its first season with Mr. With- ington, their energetic new director who came to us from Melrose. In spite of a few rainy days the band attended all the football games, marched at the En-Ka fair, and on Me¬ morial Day, played in the Spring Concert and State Festival and, on the whole, had a very successful year. The officers of this year’s band were President, Bill Eriksen; Vice-presi¬ dent, John Lynch; Secretary-treasurer, Art Gorrasi; Li¬ brarian, Gretchen Luitwieler. Even though a good many of the best players were lost last year, the band has improved a great deal and has enjoyed working with Mr. Withington as well as welcoming some new members into the organiza¬ tion. They are looking forward to next year’s band and will enjoy playing at many school activities during the year. Sixtv-six Ohdisi iha This year the orchestra is bigger and better than ever. Under its new director, Mr. Wendell S. Withington, it has grown to a large number. A special addition to this year’s group is the ten junior high violinists. The orchestra made its first appearance this year when it played at “Christmas at WHS.” Next, the combined Winchester-Arlington orchestra presented their annual mid-January concert, playing such diversified selections as the “Grand March” from Aida, selections from Snoiv White, a special string- number, and “The Blue Tango.” While all the members of the orchestra strive to make this a successful organization, some further this interest by private lessons and solo playing. Upon the completion of the new build¬ ing, the orchestra will have adequate storage space and a fine rehearsal hall. With these new facilities the orchestra will be even better in the next few years.

Since the girls’ initial participation in The Massachusetts State Music Festivals seven year ago, they have received a superior rating each year. Under the able direction of Miss Eleanor Anifantis, the Girls’ Glee Club performed in the “Christmas at WHS’’ pro¬ gram, The Spring Concert, at various outside clubs and meetings and were represented by members in The All-State Chorus.

Besides singing at the regular school performances of the Christmas Program, Spring Concert, and the Vaudeville Show, the Octette gave per¬ formances at the Women’s Republican Club, the Masons, the Rotary Club, and the Men’s Club of the Congregational Church. Ever since WHS started attending the Music Festival eight years ago, the Octette has re¬ ceived superior rating. As in the past, the girls were ably directed by Miss Anifantis, with Judy Fowler, accompanist. The fact that there were 13 Keynotes had no effect on their popularity. They were much in demand and had a busy year which was highlighted by their performances at Christmas at WHS, Vaudeville, and the Spring Concert. During the year they also performed at a few club meetings. Five of the Keynotes upheld the group’s excellent standing by singing at Symphony Hall in the All-State Chorus. JisapwisiA W. Gurrisi, W.

This year the constitution was revised, the purpose being to provide activities for the non-athletes as well as the athletic girls. It is also the purpose of the GIG to encourage good sportsmanship and participation in group activities. Under the leadership of President, Bobbi Venardi, and advisor. Miss Barnes, the GIG held the first dance of the year. The Candy Capers was very successful and set the pace for the following projects. Membership cards were sold to the girls for ten cents.

By means of pep rallies, award assemblies, and publicity, the AA tries to instill a spirit of en¬ thusiasm and cooperation throughout the student body. This year the usual membership cards have been replaced by reduced rates of admission for all students. The annual AA sponsored Fall Sports Dance and Mid-Winter Dance were held again this year.

Lub The Varsity Club is made up of all male athletes who have earned a letter in any sport, and it is under the direction of our able coach, Henry Knowlton. Each year it aims to present some type of entertainment to help pay for the pictures taken of the football games. Their last such presentation was the Donkey Basketball Game of three years ago, but unfortunately they have not been able to put on a show these last two years. The most important function of this club, though, is to encourage good sportsmanship at all times. This year’s Varsity Club is headed by Tim Hennessey who succeeded to the Presidency after being Vice-President last year. The other officers elected by the club are John Murphy, vice-president; Tony Mucera, secre¬ tary ; and Dave Rotondi, treasurer. Seventy-eight ( hsisLkkadiiA “Hey, hey, what do you say? We’re right behind you al] the way!” That’s the familiar yell and feeling among Winchester’s peppy cheerleaders, co-captained by Anne Marks and Stephanie Yale. The cheerleaders are on the job from the Concord kickoff in Sep¬ tember straight through to Tech Tourney time in March. Black blazers and red skirts are made to order for frosty football weather, and when the girls lay aside the jackets for the indoor basketball season, smart black middies over long sleeved white blouses are revealed. It’s been said that the secret of Winchester’s success is in its teamwork. The teamwork meant is the combination of players and fans and cheerleaders. In many a game have the cheerleaders’ and fans’ yells given the team just the little ounce more of fight they needed to win. The pep huddles before games, innumerable practices in the cafeteria, cheering at rallies, and finally receiving silver megaphone trinkets and getting together for the final banquet are among the cheerleaders’ happiest memories.

J ' DoJtbaU With plenty of incentive the football team was successful in its opener against Concord 26-12. At Watertown, the Winchester eleven was tied in the last four minutes of play 20-20. The next two games were easy as Coach Knowlton cleared the bench, beating North Quincy 24-7, and Stone- ham 19-7. Melrose and Reading proved to be tough competition, but the Sachems ended up on the long end of 18-12, 13-12 scores. Traveling to Belmont next, the Indians swept to a 41-12 victory. On Henry Knowlton Day, the fans were thrilled by some wide open offensive football as Wake¬ field fell before the mighty Winchester backfield of Murphy, Bellino, and Haggerty 43-26. Unfortunately, the Thanksgiving Day game was rained out and was played the following Saturday before 12,000 fans. A highly spirited Woburn team eked out an 18-13 victory over the Winchester squad, their first such victory since 1949. This was a fine season with the Red and Black averaging four touchdowns a game to two for the opposition.

Led by Captain Dottie Pratt, the Sachemettes compiled a record of one win, three ties, and three defeats. This year’s team was paced by right inner Nancy Donaghey who tallied six goals. Com¬ pleting the strong, fast forward line were Nancy Samarco, Sheila Lanigan, Phyllis Rizzo, Anita McElhiney, Sandra Chapman, and Doris Barbaro. The defensive players who ably backed up the forwards were halfbacks Bobbi Venardi, Betty Bellino, Gretchen Luitwieler, and fullbacks Carolyn Curry and Dottie Pratt. The Sachemettes were fortunate in having an outstanding goalie in Leora Peckham. Coach Mildred Barnes deserves a great deal of credit for a wonderful coaching job. Managers Joyce Nelson and Mary Burton were also an invaluable help to the squad. Besides the regular scheduled season, the varsity team participated in Concord Play Day where they enjoyed two victories and one defeat. Eighty-two Row 1, H. Russell, W. Kugler, A. Osborne, R.

They won six straight victories over Wakefield, Wellesley, Woburn, Revere, Concord, and Everett Vocational, topping them with the Pilgrim Division Championship. The harriers also defeated the Boston University freshmen. The Middlesex League Meet found Winchester in third place. Later, Winchester came up with the Class D State title in a decisive victory over nineteen other teams. By this race, Winchester, for the first time, qualified two runners for the New England Meet, Lou Farrell and Bob Becker. Backing them up were Allan Osborne, Paul Franson, Dick Borggaard, Charlie Govostes, Ronny and Quentin Roberts, and Bob Smith. The JV’s won all their meets, the Pilgrim Division and the Middlesex League titles. Lou Farrell, one of the best runners in Winchester History, has won 21 out of 22 dual meets, plus the State, League, and Divisional Individual titles during the past three years. Eighty-three ' IaIa ' SoAksdbaU Led by Co-captains, Sheila Lanigan and Mickie Coon, the Winchester Sachemettes compiled a record of 3 wins, 3 defeats. Composing the rest of the varsity forwards were Bobbi Venardi, Sue Clark, and sophomore, Stevie Stone. The strong zone defense was pivoted by center guard, Dottie Pratt, combining with side guards, Carolyn Curry, Betty Bellino and Charlene Driscoll. The guards used their height and ability to advantage, keeping the score of the opposing teams low. The team was kept on the go all season by Coach Mildred Barnes, managers, Margie Thompson and Darla Hall, and statistician, Leora Peckham. rtou ' 1, S. Stone, B. Bellino, S. Clark, D.

Led by Captain Wayne Cowles, WHS had one of their youngest and best hockey teams in years. Wayne played left wing on the first line and was one of the leading scorers in the state. Also on the first line were Richie Johnson at center and Leo Callahan at right wing. Mike Murphy and Tom Sawyer were outstanding defensemen and lessened the burden of Goalie George Denton. The second line consisted of Charlie Urmson, Joey Cussen and John Zirkel, while the second team defense alternated Johnny Murphy, Jimmy Urmson and George Bodman. Climaxing a tremiendous string of upsets, the team defeated Belmont 4-2 and won the State Hockey Championship. Previous tournament vic¬ tories were scored against Waltham, Melrose, Needham and Hyde Park. Wayne Cowes and Richie Johnson were named to the All Tournament Team and Wayne was chosen the most valuable player in the tournament. Eighty-fire Row 1, Mr. Phillips, W. Ross, R, Kneeland, J.

' (BadJiidball Hoping to repeat as Class B Champions, the Sachems, led by Captain Jim Wright, opened the season under their new coach Jim Phillips, With a fine nucleus of seven returning lettermen. Coach Phillips proceeded in much the same manner as his predecessor, Coach Bartlett. Fundamentals were stressed and the same man to man defense and set offensive patterns were used. Teaming at forward with the ever dependable Wright, was the potent combination of either Charlie Stevens or Bert Kneeland. The pivot duties were left to high scoring John Lynch. Working in the back court were the directors of the team, Joe Bellino, a great steadying influence, and Lou Farrell, the club’s defensive ace. Dateline: Saturday, March 12, 1955. The Winchester Sachems, scor¬ ing their 23rd victory of the season, again took top honors in backetball and won the Eastern Massachusetts Class B Championship, In the quarter¬ finals, the team, led by Joe Bellino with 22 points, defeated Swampscott 82-61. They defeated Roslindale next 64-44 and entered the finals against Matignon. In this thrilling final game the Indians emerged victorious 48-39. Eighty-six Ilow 1, J. Fisher, M. Coon, S. Clark, D.

Scarcely before the tennis courts begin to appear from under their winter blanket of snow, the girls’ tennis team will arrive, rackets in hand, ready for hard practice and eager for a successful season. The season looks very promising with only two vacancies left by last year’s graduating class. Chosen to lead the ’55 racqueteers was Sue Clark, a two year varsity member. Returning varsity members are Captain Sue Clark, Mickie Coon, and Dell Mitchell. As well as these, strong support comes from Natalie Bellows, Ruthie Freeman, Marcia Harris, Janet Fisher, Diana d’Elseaux, and Diane Curtis, Prospects for the coming years seem strong with Freshmen Ann Buros, Carley Clark, and Sandy Lawson eager to take over. Dottie Hills is again giving up much of her time to coaching the team. The opponents for this year are much the same as in years before. Again Belmont and Winsor will provide the best matches, with Concord, Malden, Arlington, Melrose, and Hingham completing the list. Eighty-eight UolO 1, B. Smith, D. Folkers, R. Bingham, R. Becker. S.

With returning Varsity men, Captain Dick Bingham, Bob Becker, Don Folkers, Bob Smith and strong support given by returning JV players, Dave Moore, Eric Doten, Brad Johnson, Seth Weston, and Bob Ware, it seems very possible that the team will be able to offset the loss of several former members. The help of such freshmen as Bill Emerson, Chris Wadsworth, and Rick Smith, plus the able coaching of Mr. Fitts will make this year’s team a powerful one. The season is made up of the usual matches including Newton and Brookline, closing with the State Tournament which will again be held in Winchester. Even with the unpredictable weather in the beginning of the j ear, the fall tournament was held as usual, with Bob Becker winning the singles crown and teaming up with Dick Bingham to capture the doubles title. Eighty-nine Somali strike one! Strike two! Strike three! These famous words will be predominantly heard when our hustling co-captains and battery of Lorraine DiZio on the mound, and Leora Peckham behind the plate, fulfill their ex¬ pectations during a game. The varsity will enter this season with high hopes of improving the creditable 6-2 record of the previous year. The toughest rivals, as in past years, will prove to be Lexington, Arlington and Newton. This determined, hard-working team will have but one thing on its mind—DEFEAT—for the big three. The team plans to accomplish this by their three strong sluggers, Mac, Peck and Betty, who intend to dent the wall with their tremendous drives. Spirited on by their versatile coach, Mildred Barnes, and eight returning lettermen, including our co-captains, DiZ and Peck, the team’s hopes will be justified. Doris Barbaro and Bobbi Venardi will be seen scooting around the infield while Betty Bellino, Anita McElhiney and Nancy Samarco will be in the outfield. Mnetv Rom 1, D. Barbaro, L. Peckham, L.

Bellino SoAsibaU With the impressive total of eight returning lettermen, the springtime Sachems will be making an all-out effort for the Middlesex League Cham¬ pionship and a chance to go to the state tourney. Along with these major leaguers will be some minor league JV and frosh, shriving to make the big time. A great offensive team, Winchester will have to strengthen the pitching and defense to come out of this year on top. Coach Provinzano will be relying on Art “Bobo” Sullivan, John Chapin, and Roger Delorey to bear the brunt of the pitching. Other returning members are Joe Bellino, Bert Kneeland, Bob Haggerty, Warren Goodnow, Bob Deroo, Frank Dattilo, Henry Quill, and Captain Lou Farrell. Quite a list!! With these veterans and some good material coming up, Winchester could come through with a grand slam in baseball this year. 7?o((’ , R. Roberts, W. Goodnow, B. Kneeland, L. Fari ' ell, J.

Under the watchful eye of Coach Otis Leary, the team will fight harder than ever, due to the fact that it lost quite a few valuable players of last year’s team. During the playing season, the boys will take lessons from one of the golf pros at the Winchester Country Club. They hope that these lessons will improve their game as they have in the past years. The members of the team are Victor Jonas, Roger Gullotti, Richie Johnson, John Zirkel, Joe Horn, Jim Urmson and Norman Farrar. They will play, as in past years, teams from Concord, Reading, Melrose, Wakefield, Brookline and Saint Sebastian’s, plus two teams which are new this year, Arlington and Woburn. Ninety-two Roir I. G.

These fans gave the team the impetus it needed as is indi¬ cated by its record. The team won all its dual meets. It finished ninth in the State and again showed fine form in finishing third in the Middlesex League Meet. It lost many fine performers, but this loss is balanced by a fine nucleus of returning lettermen. John Murphy and George Bodman will be running the 100 yard dash. John Lynch, throwing the discus, will be complemented by Co-captain Tim Hennessey and Mike Murphy in the shotput. Rich Rimback will be pressing for a school record in the high jump, while Rowe Ghirardini will run the hurdles. The mile berths will be held down by Dick Borggaard and Paul Franson.

Under the leadership of the Johnson sisters, the “tumbling ten” have been seen at most of the football games decked in red bermuda shorts, white blouses, and lettered black sleeveless sweaters. The one exception was the “Turkey Day” game, at which, to the delight of the spectators, they ap¬ peared in their snappy new outfits of red jerseys, short black corduroy jumpers, and Indian headdresses. The Tech Tourney is a memorable occasion for the Tumblettes, and their precision-like performances draw applause from their many fans. These girls make up a team of which Winchester can be proud.
