Woonsocket High School - Quiver Yearbook (Woonsocket, RI)

Text from Pages 1 - 116 of the 1949 volume:

School Tribute to Miss Pond Miss Clara Pond, a teacher who has devoted her entire life to the instruction of others, recently retired, leaving behind memories of her work. It was not unusual to see Miss Pond at school until 5 o’clock preparing work for the following day, or to see her giving some of her precious time to a student who needed help in his art work or wished some advanced instruction. A true lover of the aesthetic in nature. Miss Pond imparted to her students a small measure of her appreciation of the “great and beautiful outdoors”. The far-reaching influence of Miss Pond, who unselfishly helped others, has aided many a student to reach his goal in life. 4 Dedication Among the immortal figures in world of sports stands “Babe” Ruth, renowned as a baseball idol and a philanthropist. Children and adults alike will remember the “Babe” not only for his unsurpassed record in baseball but also for his unlimited generosity toward all mankind and his particular love of the “kids”. We dedicate this “Quiver” of 1949 to the “Bambino” of baseball, the never-to-be forgotten—“Babe” Ruth. 5 Fore word In presenting the theme for this year’s Quiver”, the scribes of the literary board have likened the school to a baseball homer”—with graduation as the home-plate. Our little baseball star represents an ordinary student, who, entering high-school life, becomes so much a part of it that he remains for the regular term. From his freshman to his senior year, he learns that the old adage, All work and no play . . . is of no special pertinence to our school, for. along with the classroom routine, he becomes a major part of our extracurricular fun—haven’t you seen him cheering the teams to victory, coaching our amateur thespians in Dear Ruth”, or leading the band to new glory? Eventually he, too. reaches the goal—graduation, but, unlike us, he receives no diploma, for his reward is in the pleasure he has brought to you in the reading of his antics; and to us, the satisfaction of originating him. 6 ¥ ★ ¥ ¥ ★ CONTENTS • SCHOOL • EXTRA CURRICULAR Our lad walks slowly to the plate He’s quite a little dazed He wonders just what score he’ll rate And how he’ll be appraised. He’s just a rookie in this game But he’s got time to grow We’re rooting for him all the same Here comes the pitch—let’s go! As the success of a baseball team is attributed to the efficiency of its management, so the success of our school-life can be attributed to the capability of our three general managers, headed by Mr. Donlon, principal, with the cooperation of Miss McFee, dean of girls, and Mr. Dowling, vice-principal. CHARLES A. DONLON Principal JOSEPH F. DOWLING Vice-Principal Faculty Manager, Athletics 10 Student Council L. to R. Frances Thompson. Joan Welles, and Rodney Delasanta. Anybody want lunch tickets?” These familiar words remind us that the ever-effi-cient student councillors are on the alert, performing one of their numerous tasks which include taking orders for lunch tickets and stamps, selecting the cheerleaders, and collecting the senior class dues. To the student council we can attribute the Hayseed Hop and Freshman Acquaintance dances which were huge successes. Under the capable leadership of president Rodney Delasanta, vice-president Frances Thompson. and secretary Joan Welles, this minor law-making body makes things easier for the faculty and for us.

In their natty blue, gold, and white uniforms. complemented by the red and white outfits of the majorettes. Mr. Grady’s proteges produce music comparable in excellence to their appearance. With a repertoire including famous overtures, tone poems, waltzes, and marches, the band is always well equipped to turn out a fine performance. DOWN THE FIELD 25 The O u i v e r The scriptors of the editorial staff record the events of the school year, so that it is relived as the students re-read their “Quivers” in the future years. The advertising committee has the task of marching from door to door selling businessmen the advantage of advertising in our yearbook. The subscription committee, this year the student council, encourages the students to purchase our yearbook and distributes them to the eager students. ADVERTISING COMMITTEE Standing—L. to R.

SENIOR ELECTIONS JUNIOR ELECTIONS My friends, I promise . . . ”—these were the political phrases that rang throughout the hall on September 30 as our amateur politicians campaigned for senior offices. Vel Kennedy highlighted the assembly with a brief (very brief) speech, punctuated with her infectious laugh. The race for the presidency was a close one, with Charles Charon winning by four votes. The other winners were Velma Kennedy, vice-president; Dorothy Pouliot. secretary; Ted Ciavarini, treasurer; and Rona Levein, chairman of senior activities. Straight-from-the-shouldcr speeches by the candidates for Junior offices assured the Junior class of hard-working, efficient leaders. The short speeches were punctuated by catch slogans that brought smiles to the faces of the responsive audience. The results of the election were: President V ice- P residen t Secretary Treasurer RAY THIBEAULT MILDRED HUNT GERRY COUTURE HOWARD HOLT JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS L. to R. Howard Holt. Mildred Hunt. Germaine Couture, and Raymond Thlbcault. Senior Prom Under a canopy of blue and gold streamers, the seniors of ’49 danced at their annual prom on January 14, with Gene King wielding the baton. At ten o’clock dancing was interrupted for refreshments which were served in the cafeteria. Later in the evening a special feature, an attendance prize of a cactus plant, was awarded to Robert Maguire. After the prom, many couples gathered in parties to attend popular night-clubs, where more dancing was enjoyed. Memories of this pleasant event will linger on, for attractive embossed programs with a prairie schooner motif were souvenirs of the dance. The patronesses for the affair were Miss Muriel McFee, Miss Helen McCombe, Miss Ruth Bartley, Miss Lillian Maher, Mrs. Charles Charon, Mrs. Charles Kennedy, Mrs. Charles Donlon, Mrs. Albert Levein, and Mrs. Wiliam Pouliot.

Football NORTH PROVIDENCE The Villa Novans displayed a powerful eleven as they trounced North Providence 26-0 in their league opener at Barry Field. Woonsocket put the game on ice in the second quarter when they struck pay dirt three times. The first touchdown came as the result of a crushing ground attack, copped by a four yard plunge by Picard. Mathurin kicked the extra point. Receiving a Cougar punt on the North Providence 40 yard line, the Woonsocket gridders put the ball on the three yard line in four plays. Booth skirted the right end for the second touchdown, but Mathurin's try for the extra point was blocked. The desperate Cougars tried an air attack, but this ended when Gerry Tryhubczak intercepted a pass and scampered 40 yards to pay dirt. Mathurin converted. The final score came in the last quarter on a 61 yard sustained march, with Booth carrying over from the seven yard stripe. GORTON Picard to Perron was the winning combination for Woonsocket as they squeezed by Gorton 7-0, thereby keeping their slate clean. The second quarter proved to be the lucky one for the Villa Novans. Tryhubczak returned a Gorton punt to the Woonsocket 47. Then the trio Picard. Tryhubczak, and Booth marched to the Gorton 20 in eight plays. When Woonsocket’s ground attack lost two yards, Picard cut loose a 22 yard aerial to Perron in the end zone for the score. Bill Mathurin then placekicked the extra point. 34 Woonsocket had to be on its toes to stop a belated Gorton thrust which had surged deep into Woonsocket territory. There the Villa Nova eleven stiffened and took over on downs on their own one-yard line. CLASSICAL Using an aerial attack which scored all its points, a scrappy Woonsocket High football team handed an equally scrappy Classical eleven a 12-7 setback, thereby stretching their winning streak to three straight. After a scoreless first period, Woonsocket reached pay dirt early in the second period. A Classical punt was brought back to mid-field, and then Woonsocket’s ground attack, like a well-oiled machine, churned up yardage to the 30. At that point Picard crossed up the Classical defenders with a pass to Martin on the one-yard line, and Martin easily stepped over for the first score. Math-urin’s try-for-point was blocked. In the third period, Woonsocket, on a 64 yard sustained march, scored from the 8 yard line on a Picard to Martin pass. A bad pass from center nullified the extra point. Classical retalliated by marching to the Woonsocket 35 as the third period ended. On the first play of the last quarter, Saini shook loose after skirting the left side and went the distance. DeLuglio rushed through the line for the point. Classical threatened again late in the last quarter as they lugged the pigskin inside the Villa Nova 10 but lost the ball on downs on the two yard line as Woonsocket suppressed their attempt to score. CENTRAL FALLS The powerful Central Falls team, ably lead by Ken Ball, downed Woonsocket High School in the Armistice Day tilt 21-0 at Woonsocket. Carrying the pigskin over the goal line three times, Ken Ball was the offensive star of the day. CHEER LEADERS L. to Ft. Rona Leveln. Mildred Hunt, Irene Foyle. Dorothy Pouliot. Norma Messere. and Frances Laferrlere. 35 CLASSICAL: STOPPED! In the opening quarter. Ken Ball caught a Central Falls pass, and brought the ball deep into Woonsocket territory, and this same lad, a few plays later plunged over the goal line. Prass bucked over center to score the first of his three after touchdown points. The second score came late in the third period and capped a long sustained march by Central Falls eleven. Ball skirted end and shook off a number of Woonsocket tack-lers to score his second touchdown of the afternoon. It was all Ball again in the last period as he scored the final touchdown of the afternoon. Tryhubczak was outstanding for the losers. PAWTUCKET WEST The Villa Novans came up with their fourth straight victory as they swamped Pawtucket West 34-0 at Barry Field. Art Fontaine scored two touchdowns while Picard, Booth, and Tryhubczak each carried the pigskin over the goal line once. The Woonsocket gridders tallied once in the first, third, and fourth periods, and scored two touchdowns in the second quarter. Picard, Tryhubczak, and Booth were the offensive stars as they continually ripped through the West eleven gaining important yardage. Bill Mathurin placekicked four points. ALDRICH Completely outplayed in every department Woonsocket dropped its first game of the season to an Aldrich powerhouse by a score of 19-0. Aldrich did not wait long to dent the scoring column. On the second play after the opening kickoff. Ed Lawrence smashed through tackle, and. behind great down-field blocking, lumbered 59 yards for the touchdown. Devaney booted the point and Aldrich led 7-0. 36 TRYHUBCZAK HEADS FOR A TOUCHDOWN In the second quarter Wonsocket received a break. Dubois recovered and Aldrich fumble on their 37. But Devaney intercepted a Picard pass and returned it to midfield. With their backs tearing off huge chunks of yardage, Aldrich reached the 7 where Lawrence in four tries bucked over. There was no scoring in the third quarter although Tryhubczak did break away on a 35 yard jaunt only to have it nullified because of a penalty. GERRY CLEARS THE WAY FOR PIXIE PIXIE WITH THE BALL The last touchdown resulted from a 58 yard Aldrich march toward the goal line, with Pellicano scoring on a quarterback sneak. Later Gerry Tryhubczak broke away, this time for 31 yards but again a penalty nullified the gain as Woonsocket’s hopes faded. ST. RAPHAEL Playing a disorganized brand of ball, an outclassed Villa Novan eleven was trounced by St. Raphael 26 0 in an exhibition game. The visitors scored three of their four touchdowns on long romps. The other was scored on a pass. They also booted two extra points. Late in the last quarter Woonsocket’s stellar quarterback, Norm Picard, suffered a hip injury which was to exclude him from the next two games. WEST WARWICK Receiving their third straight set back of the season and their second league defeat, Wonsocket was outscored by West Warwick 19-7 at West Warwick. Our opponents drew first blood when Woonsocket was forced to punt early in the first period. Several fine plays by Grenier and Hartman brought the ball into scoring territory, putting West Warwick momentarily ahead. The attempted conversion was blocked. The Villa Novans came back in the second period when they staged a crushing ground attack capped by Tryhubczak’s carrying the ball over the goal line. Bill Mathurin kicked the extra point and Woonsocket surged ahead 7-6. In the third period West Warwick took to the air and scored what proved to be the winning touchdown. Again their try for the extra point was blocked. A fumble by Fontaine set up West Warwick’s final touchdown. This time the pass was good for the extra point. 38 MARTIN SLIPS AWAY THANKSGIVING PEP RALLY “We’ve got the pep; we’ve got the steam; we’ve got the fight; we’ve got the team! Yeah, rah, rah! Team!” The setting for our annual turkey-day pep rally was a colorful one with banners and posters on display all over the Hall. Throughout the audience enthusiastic students brandished red and white pennants and presented a grand finale by weaving through the aisles in a snake-dance. The main presentation was a “boxing match” between the W. H. S. and Mount teams—represented respectively by Ted Ciavarini and Nate Goldstein. The crowd was tense as the opponents entered the ring. Both were admonished to make it a clean fight by “impartial” referee Wilbur Grover (who was, incidentally, bedecked with W. H. S. pins and pennants). It looked bad for our hero as the Mount cheerleaders lustily urged their man on. But our boy really got going, and the fight ended with a clean K. O. for Mount portentious of the score 25-0 score on Thanksgiving. Woonsocket cheers and a spirit of victory' filled the air as our rooters paraded up and down the aisles—“We’re from Woonsocket— we couldn’t be prouder, and if you can’t hear us now, we’ll yell a little louder.” MOUNT ST. CHARLES Showing a direct reversal of form in contrast to their last four games, a fighting eleven outplayed and outfought to the tune of 25-0 an undermanned Mount team in the annual Turkey day game. After the ball had changed hands several times in the opening quarter, the Villa No-vans began an 82 yard drive, with Booth and Tryhubczak combining to bring the ball to the Mount 37 in six plays. Tryhubczak heaved an aerial to Fran Martin on the five and he stepped over for the first score. Mathurin converted and Woonsocket led 7-0. A Mount fumble paved the way to the second score. The elusive pigskin was recovered on the Mount 24 and a Picard to Martin pass to the 12 yard line added six points as Martin slithered the remaining distance. The placement was wide and Woonsocket led 13-0. Mount was forced to punt after receiving the kickoff and 70 yards later Booth skirted the left side on an eleven yard jaunt for the touchdown. Mathurin’s kick was too low for the point as Wocnsocket stretched its lead to 19-0 as the half ended. BOOTH CARRIES OVER There was no scoring done in the third period but in the opening minutes of the last quarter Mount attempted to pass on a fourth down and Woonsocket took over on their own 37 as it failed to click. The trio Tryhubczak, Booth, and Fontaine moved to the Mount 24 and a clipping penalty ad- vanced the pigskin to the one. Tryhubczak lost a yard on the first play but Picard bucked over for the final points. A Mount fumble on the Woonsocket three ruined its final chances to enter the scoring column as the Villa Novans turned back this final threat of the game. OURS AGAIN Cross Country Under the careful guidance of coach Ray Betagh, Woonsocket High’s Cross Country team gained victory laurels for the school winning Class B Championship for the second consecutive year. Burrillville was Woonsocket’s first victim as Steve Lipka paced his well balanced teammates to a 22-34 win. Lipka won the race. Hope visited Woonsocket next and our boys just couldn’t keep up to the flashy Class A club losing 22-34. Woonsocket then routed Classical as Stuart Smith paced his fellow runners to a lopsided 19-52 victory. Smith was the first man across the finish line. Central was the next victim as Sonny Le-maire won the race and led Woonsocket to a perfect score victory 15-83. Woonsocket then lost to Mount Pleasant but hurried to defeat Barrington 25-42, Lipka again winning the race. The Woonsocket runners now achieved one of the biggest surprises of the year by defeating two heavily favored Class A teams in less than 24 hours. They were Cranston 25-42 and Pawtucket East 22-36. Again our runners tried to upset a Class A team but they were subdued by La Salle, the Class A state champions. In State Meets Woonsocket did very well. In the Columbus Day Road Race they finished fourth in a field of 12 and in the Relay Carnival they again finished fourth. Then came the Class B championship race! Woonsocket won! The Woonsocket harriers had a final total of 39 points to runner-up North Providence’s 66. Woonsocket placed four men on the Class B all star team Steve Lipka on the first team, and Sonny Lemaire, Stuart Smith, and Wilfred Dufresne on the second team. Woonsocket had a very successful season and lost only to the three top teams in the state. Top Row: Left to Right: Robert Waltzer. James Bouchard. John Laflamme. Donald Booth.

Gus Hoffman, Gerry Try-hubczak, Charlie Gould, and Bob Kay, comprised the starting five. Others rounding out the team were Henry Brenner and Andy Petrides. The season opened at Westerly and the Bulldogs managed to eke out a 34-26 victory. With Westerly leading 28-18 at the third period mark, the Villa Novans attempted a belated surge but were only able to cut the deficit to eight points. Gerry Try-hubczak and Henry Brenner added six points each for our side. The following week at the Armory, the Marrahmen staged some of the most sensational ballhandling of the season as they swamped Sacred Heart 49-30. Woonsocket combined a good defense with a sharp attack to secure their first victory. Leading in every period but the first, Woonsocket came close to losing the game to a fighting West Warwick five as Hoffman and Gould fouled out, but the West War- wick rally fell short and Woonsocket was on the top end of a 42-41 score. The Marrahmen added their third straight win in their next outing when they defeated North Providence 39-35. At one stage of the game the Cougars held a 17-9 advantage but the Villa Novans constantly hacked away till finally two successive baskets by Gerry Try-hubczak pushed them up front 21-20 in the third period. Gus Hoffman again paced our side in the scoring department as he toppled in 12 points. The Villa Novans then romped over Classical 57-33 for their fourth straight triumph. Paced by Dick Blinkhorn and Bob Kay who tossed in 22 and 17 points respectively, the locals led all the way by period scores of 12-6, 27-15, and 47-25. Gorton snapped the Marrahmen’s victory string when they edged them 38-36 in a thriller. With the score 23-12 at halftime. Woonsocket kept nibbling at the Gorton lead and pushed within 3 points at the automatic, the score then 36-33, but the locals could not rally enough to top the fast moving five from Gorton. 42 The Marrahmen then copped the first game in the City Championship series against the Mount by a 39-31 score. With the game dead locked 16 all in the first half, Woonsocket pushed ahead 28-26 going into the final eight minutes. Then quick baskets by Hoffman, 3 and Blinkhorn, 1, clinched the decision for the Villa Novans since the “Hilltoppors” never were able to match that spurt. Hoffman and Tryhubczak each tossed in 11 points. Woonsocket ran into a tartar at Central Falls when the twin city five came out on top 53-46. Central Falls showed their superiority from the start and held period leads of 18-6 and 34-18. Dick Blinkhorn had 14 points and Charlie Gould and Gerry Tryhubczak came up with 10 each for our side. Aldrich then gave the Woonsocketers a 43-36 defeat at the Armory. The visitors jumped into a 15-6 advantage at the end of the first period and they held the lead the remaining distance. Other period scores were 26-15 and 33-24 all in favor of the Aldrich five. Gus Hoffman set the pace for our team with 13 markers. The Villa Novans then upset a previously undefeated Westerly team at the Armory by a score of 49-38. The loss snapped a string of 88 consecutive league games without defeat for Westerly. The Marrahmen found themselves trailing throughout the first half but they opened up a devastating attack in the second half to pull away from the visitors. Westerly raced off to a fast 13-8 lead in the first period but walked off the floor at halftime ahead by only two points, 19-17. Woonsocket, paced by Bob Kay who scored 14 points in the second half most of them the long tom variety, pushed ahead 34-28 at the three quarter mark and easily held off the bewildered Bulldogs to gain a sweet triumph. Kay and Gus Hoffman led the attack with 14 points each while Charlie Gould starred defensively. Controlling the Boards. 43 Led by Gus Hoffman and Dick Blinkhorn who scored 20 and 15 points respectively. Woonsocket eked out a 49-45 victory over Sacred Heart at Central Falls. A fast moving West Warwick five trounced the Villa Novans 47-34 at West Warwick, bringing Woonsocket’s total to seven won and five lost. With Gerry Tryhubczak leading the attack by 22 points, the Marrahmen declined a stubborn North Providence five 59-52 for the second time this season. Trailing all the way, Woonsocket suffered a heartbreaking 44-42 defeat at the hands of Classical. The game was lost from the foul line where Classical sank eight points and Woonsocket only two. Woonsocket went down to its second straight defeat losing to Gorton 33-27. Starting off in high gear, Woonsocket lead 17-13 at half-time, but was able to score only ten points in the final half to drop the decision. Holding hands. It was Woonsocket again in the second game in the City Championship Series as they tipped Mount 30-28 in a thriller at the Armory. With 1 minute 27 seconds left to play in the game Mount knotted the score 28-28. In the following moments the Mount shot four tries at the basket but all missed. Gus Hoffman scored the final two points of the game with a well aimed shot from outside the foul line. The Villa Novans, playing an uninspired game, were defeated for the second time by the Central Falls quintet 47-42 at the Armory. Gould and Hoffman paced the losers with 11 points apiece. Baseball With only one letterman returning, Woonsocket High’s 1948 baseball team enjoyed a fair season. Under the able direction of Coach Savaria who molded a capable team from the ranks of the inexperienced, the earn won seven and lost six games. The starting line-up included Francis Martin. a converted pitcher behind the plate, Walt Morin, the lone letterman, and Bill Mathurin on the mound. The first base bag was also held down by these two lads. The keystone combination consisted of Ted Ci-avarini at second and Dick Daignault at short. Gerry Tryhubczak patrolled the hot corner, while the outfield was covered (left to right) by Jimmy Cassidy, Gus Hoffman, and John Tryhubczak. Of the six victories fine pitching featured three of them. The most colorful ones were the brilliant two hit shutout hurled by Walt Morin against Westerly and the 4-1 victory over Aldrich. The others were the result of excellent pitching on the part of Bill Mathurin and timely hits by the members of the squad. In one of his first showings, Bill limited Gorton to three hits while his mates pounded out a decisive 9-1 triumph. Another mound masterpiece was his 4-3 eleven inning victory over St. Raphael. The other three victories were of the slug-fest variety as Woonsocket defeated Classical 10-1, and Central Falls 9-6. Of the six defeats suffered, probably the hardest to take was a 4-1 beating at the hands of Mount St. Charles. All four runs scored by Mount were unearned. Woonsocket also suffered two defeats at the hands of Pawtucket West and one each by West Warwick, St. Raphael, and Central Falls. R. H. S. W. H. S. 10 9 0 North Prov. 1 3 0 St. Raphael 7 9 3 W. H.
