Theroux Paulette C. Toupin Peter A. Trocina Suzanne J. Turcotte Angela M. Vario Patricia M. Vargas Paul C. White Richard A. Younkin (CIubb iHistury We, the class of 1968, first entered the halls of Woonsocket High School on September 8, 1965, as that year's mass of anguished freshmen. We were overwhelmed by the confusion of conflicting schedules, the intentional misguided directions of upperclassmen, and the maze of new faces we were to meet daily. Finally, we adapted to the new work that was being demanded of us coupled with many activities. Our football team kept us in the bleachers as accepted high school students until w’e successfully closed the season. We cheered our team throughout the season convinced we would defeat the Clipper team on that Thanksgiving Day. Both our crosscountry and track teams, under the coaching of Mr. Oerald Trvhubczak. managed to close their season victoriously. Our basketball five followed with a phenomenal jump to a place in the State Championship Playoffs. Our baseball and golf teams completed the slate by capturing the Northern Division pennant in their respective classes. The excitement of our victories was shadowed by the passing of Mr. Frank A. Murphy, a member of our English Department, on November 17, 1965. Woonsocket High Debaters turned in a strong performance at the Speech Sweep-stakes Tournament on December 11. The excitement mounted steadily as we tied the Mount record. Disappointment followed, however, when individual points were counted giving our opponents a fourteen point margin. After a much deserved Christmas vacation, our High School Band and Majorette Corps was invited to participate in the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C. Numerous fund raising events were planned, the first of which was a very successful decal drive. On January 29. a kick-off dinner was held at the Friendly Club with a number of dignitaries attending including Governor Chaffee who declared April 16 V? oonsocket High School Band Day in Bhode Island. Our annual Spring Concert attracted an audience of over seven hundred to hear our Band and Chorus under the direction of Alfred G. Lague. The final band activity of the year was a delightful concert with the Herkimer High School Band from Herkimer, New York. Nearly one hundred projects were displayed at our School Science Fair. Second grant winners included James Kerrigan. Karen Zatonskv, and Linda Sprague. We were represented in the New England Science Fair for the second consecutive year. The local government and business united this year to develop the “Vocational Exploration Program,” headed by Lauren R. Bradley. Thundermist District director of the Narragansett Council. The purpose of the program, sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America, was to help our students find an interesting occupation or career. Numerous Explorer Posts were set up in such fields as real estate, banking, and municipal government. Our annual Career Day was acclaimed the best in our school’s history by ten evaluators. On March 15, a hootenanny was held at the Stadium Theatre to boost scholarship funds. It was sponsored by the Woonsocket Chapter of the Citizens Scholarship Foundation, and arranged by the student council of Woonsocket High, Mount St. Charles, and St. Clare High. “Kathie and the Country Boys,” from Burrillville, whose style was country bluegrass, received the first-place award, and our own “Who Else?” group ranked second. The 1966 Quiver was dedicated to Miss Serena Jones, a member of our English Department. The book later won a first place award in the 82nd Columbia Scholastic Press Association competition. As our freshman year drew to a close, our lockers, walls, windows, and blackboards became enrobed with campaign posters. We elected our future leaders— Dennis Abbate, president, Roger Plante, vice-president, Diane Corrieri, secretary, and Angela Vario, treasurer. Mrs. Ann Fener is class adviser. Our freshman year completed, we left WHS for ten weeks of relaxation. One thousand one hundred and ninety one students were enrolled at WHS that September, the largest number in the history of our school, causing various innovations in the school itself. Temporary desks, studies in the rear of classes and in the cafeteria, and crowded corridors before and after classes, were some of the problems we were to weather through our remaining high school years. Eighteen new members also joined our faculty. Mr. Albert H. Choquette, Jr., a member of our History Department and former advisor of our school yearbook, became Woonsocket High’s new' Vice-Principal succeeding Mr. Wilfred N. Lavallee, who became superintendent of the Central Falls school system. Mr. Anthony Paglione became chairman of our Science Department. The first major activity of our Junior year was the “IBM Computer Dance” sponsored by our Student Council. A Boston computer analyzed data sheets submitted by over four hundred students providing each partner with two possible ‘ideals’. Although our football team suffered a heartbreaking season, our spirits were soon lifted by the outstanding performances of the cross-country and track teams, under the direction of a new coach, Mr. Thomas Flood. Our excitement increased as our baseball team took the Northern Division crown for the second consecutive year. With this game Coach Gus Savaria highlighted a distinguished career spanning forty years of active coaching. Our Villa Novan golf team won the second straight R.I. Interscholastic League, Northern Division Championship. Charlie Smith led the team throughout the season along with Roger Hoyle, and Ted Kuczer. A five-year project came to a close with the presentation of the thirty foot mural in the reference room of the McFee Memorial Library. The artistic endeavor is the combined effort of over fifty artists who worked on the project under the supervision of Mr. Thomas E. Hanley of our Art Department. The painting illustrates the advance of the written word over the centuries and includes cave drawings by prehistoric man. Egyptian hieroglyphics, Greek script, copvwork of the monks in the Medieval Period, and the invention of the printing press by Gutenberg. The artistic work shows the correlation of writing and learning throughout the ages. Midyear exams dominated both our thinking and our time Our scholastic standing became increasingly important in deciding the direction of our lives. Our 1967 Career Day Program, directed by Mr. James F. Davey, was highlighted by a keynote address by former Mayor Kevin K. Coleman. Each of the forty-six guests, representing a wide variety of professions, presented two forty-five minute periods of vital information concerning his occupation. The entire student body was entertained by Miss Joana Featherstone, who presented a program of American Negro literature from pre-Civil War to the present. The program was brought to us through Project Discovery, a government run operation which has presented several plays for the students at the RISI) Auditorium in Providence. Miss Featherstone received a standing ovation after her dynamic performance. Our Band began an active year of musical accomplishments when nineteen Villa Novan musicians were chosen to participate in the annual R.I. Senior High School All-State Concert at Rogers High in Newport. Selected for instrumental honors were Thomas Asselin, Peter Pihun, Andrew Lantner, and Kevin Kane. Once again our Band and Chorus presented its annual Spring Concert on April 2, under the direction of Mr. Lawrence 0. Bernard and Mrs. Adeline Rogillio. After eight months of door to door combat, concerts, booster banquets, and a score of other fund raising events, our W HS Band members embarked on a four day excursion to Montreal and Expo’ ’67. Settling upon a gown, renting a tux, purchasing tickets, arranging a last-minute hairdressing appointment, and decorating the gymnasium were only forerunners to the Junior Prom. When the decorating committee transformed the gym into a three dimensional wonderland in keeping with the theme of ’‘Carousel. The evening was highlighted by the crowning of Pat Vargas as queen, and Christine Murphy and Celene Carey as princesses. After the traditional festivities the couples ended an ideal night with dinner at Kirkbrae Country Club. The 1967 Quiver was dedicated to Mr. William 0. Bedard, chairman of the Mathematics Department. As June drew near, the contest for class officers again drew the attention of every Villa Novan. Dennis Abbate was again elected president. To assist him Douglas Connell was chosen vice-president, Diane Corrieri, secretary, and Angela ario, treasurer, while Roger Gramolini was elected activities chairman. Also, we chose Lvn Bliss, president. Mariette Sutherland, vice-president, and John Jellison, marshal, of the Student Council. Donald Piette was appointed Editor-in-chief of our school newspaper, the Villa Novan. We returned after a ten week vacation sorrowed at the passing of two members of our school system. Mr. Leo Bedard, a member of the school committee died on May 27, 1967. Mr. Lawrence 0. Bernard, our school and Dance Band leader, died after a concert on August 27, 1967. As the months passed we were constantly reminded that we were now seniors, the last stage of our high school career, by attending our spirited pep rallies, keeping appointments for Quiver pictures, and taking the major role in school activities. Among those chosen to preview college classes at UR I Saturday Seminars were Carol Ponanski, Paul White. Pamela Mazmanian. James Kerrigan, and Paula Lamoureux. Our football season ended at a spirited pep rally where Coach McKinnon was given another standing ovation for his untiring efforts. On that last dreary day we slushed across the field to thank our senior footballers for their three years of hard work. Four students. James Kerrigan, Andrew Lantner. Janice Raymond, and Leon StefFancci, received letters of commendation in the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. This is the highest number of WHS students to receive this coveted letter in one graduating class. On December 16, Peter Trocina, Kevin Kane, Andrew Lantner, and freshman Lawrence Brown, represented Vi HS on the High School Bowl television program. Our Villa Novans lost by a short margin to Cumberland. Our Senior Class Christmas Party was the tinsel on our Christmas trees this year. Our brightly decorated gym brought Yuletide cheer to all members of our senior class. Bob Brackett, under his Santa Claus garb, gave to all the girls a red Christmas stocking, and a Santa Claus mug to all the boys. We must of necessity terminate our reminiscing at this point. We can only anticipate the remaining segment of our high school career: a momentous senior prom, a joyous class banquet, and unforgettable graduation exercise, and a reluctant valediction through a sad but glorious Commencement Ball. upprlatiups 78 80 81 Huiimlaiiauunt (Class nf HIGH JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS Susan Tessier, Vice-President Mark Duffy.

TEACHERS’ ROOM FRESHMEN SHOP (Sdf iaer The brilliant Woonsocket High School golf team captured its second straight Rhode Island Interscholastic League, Northern Division Championship last season. Woonsocket’s superb performances were led by Charlie Smith, who has proven to be one of the finest amateur golfers in the state. Other members of the squad who also turned in fine showings were Roger Hoyle. Ted Kuczer, and Paul O’Connor. The Villa Novans were never in any trouble during the season and they finished with a domineering 13-1 record. The tables turned in the state championship, however. W.H.S. faced rugged opposition and a tricky Agawam Hunt Golf Course; consequently, Woonsocket was defeated, but only after a great efiort. Coach Dick Palazzini expects an even superior team next year with his top three golfers returning, along with several promising underclassmen. W.H.S. GOLF TEAM From Lei I lo Right: Kneeling, P.

Not only did the Villa No vans capture the Northern Division crown for the second successive year, but also competed in the state finals for the first time in fifteen years. The season was successful and exciting. It ended with Cumberland and Woonsocket deadlocked for first place, but with superior pitching and slugging Vi .H.S. outlasted Cumberland in that all important game for first place to end the regular season with an impressive 12-3 record. W.H.S. was masterful in the state semi-finals scoring a 4-2 win with a hard-earned, come from behind victory, over a highly rated St. Raphael Club. Woonsocket, however, was stopped cold 5 1 in the state finals by an overpowering North Kingston team.

Gene Ciffo, and Reid Rotatori along with a strong running attack led by fullback Tom Wikiera and halfback Ores Masnyk enabled the Villa Novans to complete a successful 1967 campaign. Named to the first string offensive team in the Class B selection was end Bob Farrow. Those receiving honorable mentions were co-captains Bob Brackett and Roland Labonte. Roger, Ronald, and Rodney Gramolini, Reid Rotatori. Tom Wikiera and Ken Zagaglia. With these seniors graduating, the coaching staff faces the task of building a new and hopefully successful Villa Novan squad for the coming season.

Finishing fourth in the defense department earned them a playoff berth in which they played admirably upsetting first place Ponagansett 2-1. The Villa Novans performed in the Suburban Division this year where they did not have to face the rugged competition that impeded them last year. Also essential were the fine defensive work of goalie Ed Berry and the strong offensive punch of Chip Jasmin and Ted Kuczer. The team as a whole worked diligently and had an enthusiastic attitude throughout the season. The WHS sextet is still in a building-up stage. Losing only three seniors, next year’s squad will have an experienced first string that makes their hockey future optimistic. Goalie Ed. Berry carried the defensive burden this past season in fine fashion. His goaltending was an important factor in Woonsocket's making the playoffs.

The starting five, all seasoned veterans, gave their all in every game, earning each victory with their great desire to win. The Villa Novans combined an explosive offense with a stalwart defense to reach the number one spot. Although eliminated by North Providence in the playoffs, the Woonsocket squad was a championship team respected by its opposition. Big Bob Farrow and Tom Asselin provided the main offensive punch, averaging thirty-eight points per game between them. Complementing the attack were Captain Charlie Smith, David Stefanik and Jay Lacouture. Defensively, the Woonsocket cagers were outstanding, holding their foes down and rebounding aggressively in each contest. Graduation drained the starting line-up, but prospects for future Villa Novan campaigns are promising because of the fine J-V squad and its talented newcomers. Coach Dwyer will have some surprises for the other Class B teams.

This journal issued in November. January, April, and June, has become a part of our high school life. Throughout the year, the staff works diligently gathering facts about school activities and about outstanding student achievements. Some of the most popular features are: “Who's who?”, “Roving Reporter ’, and “The Sports Quiz”. The paper has recently adopted a more definite editorial stand on issues important to Woonsocket High students. The Villa ovan is not only a storehouse of information about our school’s history, but also a source of memories spotlighting our high school years. Our version of “Starring the Editors,” C.

($mtipr Out of mounds of copy, photographs and layout sheets the 1968 yearbook has emerged. Several afternoons each week, members of the literary staff, photographers and typists gather to edit copy, write captions and prepare the book for publication. A yearbook is a comprehensive account of the school, its teachers, students and its activities. Although the work is demanding, the staff is rewarded by knowing that they have helped capture their school life—today's events and tomorrow’s memories. Members of the subscription committee begin early to solicit advertisements and to supervise sales to underclassmen assuring the financial success of the book.

The aim of student teaching is to gain practical experience under the supervision of competent teachers, by observing both students and teachers. We were privileged this year in having student teachers from Bryant College, Rhode Island College, Providence College, and the University of Rhode Island. The students from these colleges are majors in English, biology, mathematics, history, business, and languages. First semester student teachers are: Mr. Richard Durand, R.I.C., and Miss Susan Marion, Bryant. Second Semester student teachers from Rhode Island College and the University of Rhode Island are: Miss Pauline Baril, and Mr. Charles Santo, R.I.C., and Miss Marie Hardink, U.R.I.

Throughout the year, the council keeps the student body informed about all school activities. This year the council successfully sponsored a computer dance, assisted in Operation Good Cheer, promoted Student Council exchanges and sold school pins. Many of the councilors also attended the Annual State Convention of Student Councils, where students throughout the state met to discuss and share ideas concerning the promotion of school spirit and the importance of a well-organized Student Council.

McFee Library continued to be an extremely reliable heart this year, ably keeping in circulation an ever-increasing wealth of knowledge to both students and teachers. A major addition this year was the Photostat Copier, which proved a welcome innovation to students, by saving them hours of tedious work. A popular area for students this year, as in past years, was the magazine section, where students perused an amazing array of periodicals, from The New Republic to Scientific American. Students also found it helpful to use a new comprehensive guidance reference shelf when investigating colleges and career opportunities. As in past years, student library aides sacrificed their study periods to assist Mr. Leveillee and Mrs. Cannon. They performed competently, doing everything from stamping student slips to repairing worn books. 120 MR. LOUIS R. LEVEILLEE Librarian Helping Mrs. Cannon with the many duties of the library are: D.

Mnmt Ifcpartnmtt The high school band, under the direction of Mr. James Castaldi, can review the past year with a great sense of accomplishment. Whether it was marching smartly down Main Street on Armistice Day, Memorial Day, or in support of our soldiers in Viet Nam: or religiously attending every home league game of the football team; or performing in the Christmas or Spring Concert before the public, the band brought honor to the school. Senior members of the band will have many memories to treasure this year, including the half-time show, which although meticulously rehearsed, was not performed at the Thanksgiving Day game. In addition, thoughts of the grueling hours spent selling raffle tickets, decals, banquet tickets, and waking up at 5:30 in the morning to watch the band’s rendition of the Star Spangled Banner on Channel 7 will undoubtedly be held in reverence for years to come. As we all know, the band started the year with a deep sense of sorrow at having so suddenly lost its director, a man who not only possessed the rare skill to teach, but whose heart generated warmth and kindness to everyone he taught. The dance band, which loved to “jam” on Friday afternoons, performed capably at several outings: The Our Lady-Queen of Martyrs Christmas Party, the band banquet at the Bocce Club, the Christmas concert, and the Spring concert. Mrs. Rogillio’s chorus sang superbly in the Christmas and Spring concerts, combining with the band in a rendition of “Toccata for Band” at the Christmas concert. “Toccata”, a piece which requires much musical skill of both band and chorus, was competently done.

Its members devote several hours each week to work on advanced art projects or to assist the school in advertising special activities. Frequently, the club also displays its paintings in local department stores. In addition to the painting, drawing, print-making, and sculpturing carried on in the classroom, some members supplement their thirst for the knowledge of their craft by taking private lessons on Saturdays or by touring art clubs, galleries and museums in Providence and Boston.

Whether it was radiating a little happiness to Korean orphans 12,000 miles across the sea or teaching arithmetic to underprivileged children across the city-, most of the FTA’s activities stressed the idea of involvement. The FTA's list of philanthropic works performed this year is impressive: devoting four afternoons a week in the SPAC's tutorial program, collecting Christmas cards for an orphanage in Korea, staging a Christmas show for the Mt. St. Francis Home, serving as ushers during the high schools visiting days in November, and selling hot dogs at football games to earn money for a scholarship fund. In addition, the FTA members helped themselves learn more about the teaching profession by visiting Woonsocket grammar schools Tor a day in March.

In addition, the club set a precedent by spending a weekend in Washington, D.C. The club last year also went on a trip, that time to New York.

Traveling by their own means once a month on Saturday mornings to RIC, the students added a rare and very valuable dimension to their understanding of current U.S. foreign policy by listening and questioning the opinions of highly respected individuals such as Senator Pell and Harvard professor Benjamin H. Brown. The speakers talked on such topics as Sino-American Relations and American relations with Eastern Europe. Woonsocket History Department Chairman Martin Crowley supervised the school’s participation in the program. In addition, 14 students received a deeper insight into the world of science by attending University of Rhode Island science seminars on Saturday mornings.

Auditorium JJrograma Woonsocket High School students were undoubtedly treated to a most worth-while, thought-provoking, and otherwise highly entertaining series of auditorium programs again this year. Subjects of these shows ranged from the recent scientific achievements in chemistry and space, explained by a General Motors representative, to the experiments of the Trinity Square Repertory Company in presenting Julius Caesar as a cynical commentary of modern man. Our guidance counselors also used the auditorium to advantage, frequently showing films and presenting speakers in attempts to suggest useful ways to prepare ourselves for college, or to provide data about trade schools and apprenticeship programs. During the spring, Mrs. Tryhuhczak’s homemakers staged their annual fashion show, and the naval hand from Newport presented a concert for the entire student body. Performers Richard Kneeland and Katherine Helmond of the Trinity Square Repertory Company enact a short scene from Julius Ceasar. Peter I.ahousse and a representative from General Motors produce an experiment for the student body. 135 JImttnr JJrmn On the evening of May 12, 1967, members of the Junior Class gathered in the school gymnasium to enjoy one of the most memorable occasions of their lives, the Junior Prom. Music for the formal affair was provided by members of the Twilighters Orchestra, who performed in an imitation carousel in the center of the floor. The theme, “Carousel”, was further carried out by the canopy of pale blue, pink, and white crepe paper which enveloped the couples as they danced. A mural, depicting a “Gay Nineties” scene covered the west end of the gym. The evening was highlighted by the crowning of Miss Patricia Vargas as queen. After the coronation and the cutting of the class cake, the couples ate light refreshments in the cafeteria and danced. Later, they traveled to Kirkbrae Country Club, where the major post-prom activity was held. Each girl received a charm in the form of a class ring and a white, felt-covered program imprinted with WHS in blue as a souvenir of a wonderful evening.

Miss Carolyn Bliss was selected as queen while Suzanne Champagne and Pauline Harmon were chosen as princesses. Approximately 175 couples danced under a canopy of red, pink, and white crepe paper. Two pillars adorned with white crepe paper, and a large mural silhouetting a girl and her escort inside a red heart were the outstanding decorative features. Each girl received a white, felt-covered program imprinted with WHS in red and also a ’68 pin with red stones. The major post-prom activity was held in the main ballroom of the King Philip, Wrentham.
