‘Dedication

In recognition of his devoted service to Somerset High School, the Class of 1956 gratefully dedicates Memoirs to Mr. Edward J. Kaylor.

As a teacher he instills in his students enthusiasm and an avid desire to learn. Mr. Kaylor's classes are made fascinating by his keen wit and vast store of knowledge.

His diligent work in the guidance department of Somerset High School has merited him the acclaim of faculty and students alike. Ability to understand a student's problem and patience to direct the student to making a sound decision are chief at¬ tributes in his success as a counselor. His kindly words of en¬ couragement inspire many to earnestly seek their goals. A tribute to his untiring efforts is the broad guidance program now offered at Somerset High School. "A man of dignity and understanding" he radiates geniality and wisdom.

As dusk comes upon me and light begins to fade, I will rub my magic lamp and try to recall some of the most treasured memories of three out¬ standing years at Somerset High School.

The air begins to clear and the first scene visible is that of the opening assembly. As Sophomores, the first task was selecting officers to head our class. Under Mr. Kineavy's capable supervision, the following officers were chosen: President, Cliff Hoole; Vice President, Judy Borge; Secretary, Lolly Almeida; Treasurer, Bob Nichols; Girl Councillor, Marge Durfee; Boy Coun¬ cillor, Bill Cordeiro. The next project was to sponsor a dance to help establish a class treasury, and "Winter Wonderland" was a great success. By then, we were in the swing of things, and before we realized it, our first year of high school was over and summer was upon us.

Filled with the anticipation of another exciting year, we gathered in the auditorium for the first class meeting as Juniors. The officers chosen to guide us through this important year were: President, Bob Nichols; Vice President, Joan Bridgeman; Secretary, Kathy Miguel; Treasurer, Charlie Mendes; Girl Councillor, Marge Durfee; Boy Councillor, Roland Bernardo. Honors were bestowed upon Penny Cook and Lolly Almeida who were elected Vice Pres¬ ident and Secretary, respectively, of the S.A.A. Our next class problem was the choosing of rings.

Both the social and athletic seasons were successful for the Juniors. Under the supervision of Miss Bachand, our advisor, the class sponsored a dance, and early in the Spring, preparations were begun for the spectacular event of the year— the Junior-Senior Prom. The motif was Neptune's Court and the entire affair was a magnificent success. Coaches Simpson, Kearns, Kineavy and Luti guided their respective teams through victorious seasons— climaxing a wonderful year.

I

l

September, 1955 was the beginning of the best year of all. The dream of every underclassman had finally been fulfilled— we were Seniors at last! Under the supervision of Miss Mason, class officers were chosen to guide us through the final year: President, Bob Nichols; Vice President, Joan Bridge-

man; Secretary, Lolly Almeida; Treasurer, Charlie Mendes; Girl Councillor, Marge Durfee; Boy Councillor, Joe Zagorski. Bill Gibney and Cliff Hoole were selected to head the school government as President and Treasurer, respectively, of the S.A.A.

One of the most outstanding activities of this year, Memoirs, was begun immediately. Joan Bridgeman received top honors as Editor, and Miss Walsh served her fifth year as its capable and hard-working advisor.

The Football season was most successful, with the exception of the Thanks¬ giving Day game, when we regretfully relinquished the 49-ers trophy to Case. The Basketball, Baseball, and Track teams all had enviable records.

With the excitement of exchanging pictures, Senior Orals, the prom, and receiving the yearbooks, time really had flown, and we were rehearsing for graduation. Graduation! the very thing we had talked about and waited for for so long. Through the happy blur of receiving diplomas, congratulations, and the excitement, we felt a little saddened, for we realized that we were leaving an important part of our lives behind.

Now as the images begin to fade in the haze of the lamp, I see before me uncertainty and confusion, but I feel reassured knowing that the very best of opportunities and assistance was given to us, both as individuals and as a class, by the ever-available, capable, and loyal faculty. We all be¬ lieve that "fond memories of Somerset will be a guiding light" in the future.

The lamp had been rubbed and we found ourselves in a strange vehicle, the Gurnmobile, anchored in a harbor. Our destination— the new tourist playground, Underwater, U.S.A.

Our voyage was about to begin and hostesses Judi Borge and Jen Rostek helped us check our underwater attire which would be necessary during the tour.

/

With a whir of the jet engines and the raising of the anchor, we were on our way. Glancing through the portholes we could see the land slipping away and the sea engulfing us. Under the expert navigation of Eddie Fox and Bob Canty, the Gurnmobile, Invented by Bob Gurnitz, easily slipped in and out of the coral reefs and dense jungles of underwater vegetation.

We knew we were fast approaching Underwater, U.S.A. because of the signs along the way, which had the artisic touch of Maggie Pacheco.

The hours of travel were made pleasanter by the melodious singing of Richard Smith, Ed Ouelette, and David Sullivan. At last we had arrived. After alighting from the Gurnmobile we were quite surprised to see Mayor Charlie Mendes and Councilman Dave Botelho swimming toward us. They presented us with the traditional golden "fish bone" to the city, and graciously in¬ vited us to dine with them at the Red Lobster "Swim-In," owed by the fam¬ ous gourmet, Barbara Stone. While there, we overheard Bob Nichols and Joe Costa discussing their current business negotiations concerning the construction of a barnacle garden. Sitting with them were their reliable secretaries, "Thursday" Miguel and "Friday" Almeida, taking notes in in¬ delible ink.

Ordering a seafood dinner (what else?) was quite a chore because there were so many delicious dishes from which to choose. John Cordeiro, the head waiter, took our orders for octopus saute.

The Seahorse Stable run by Augie Reis and Peter Gossic was just a few leagues down the street. We decided to rent a horse for the remainder of the trip. Our, guide, Marilyn Verros, came speeding up on her trusty steed and after a few moments of reminiscing, we were on our way.

Our first stop was at the hospital designed by a leading architect, Lenny Wood, and built by Cliff Hoole and his construction company. Janet Perry, head operating nurse, and her assistants Lorraine Antone and Sheila Murphy were in the operating room helping Dr. Barbara Foulds perform a delicate operation on John Rebello, a hunter, who had been wounded in a battle with a swordfish. In the lab the technicians, Joyce Brockman and Bev Smith, were busy at work.

Next on the agenda was the Science Research Center where we were allowed to watch physicist Arthur Emmett working on his current problem— that of lighting the city by means of electric eels. We said au revoir to Pro¬ fessor Emmett and started for the Underwater Olympic Stadium. Our taxi was a sea turtle which took us past the courthouse where Judge Roland Bernardo and stenographers Jeanne Caron, Carolyn Butler, and Pauline Chagnon were busy at work.

.

Great was our disappointment when arriving at the stadium, we learned that we had just missed John Nordeste who had carried on the true tradi¬ tion of his Alma Mater, by winning the Marathon Swim. It was not too late, however, to see the basketball team, composed of Capt. Dan Salmon, Austin O'Toole, Tom Harrington, Bill Cordeiro, and Bill Gibney, and coached by Roland Cordeiro, soundly trounce their opponents in an underwater game. (Their basketball was a puffed-up balloon-fish!) The next event we saw was a wrestling match between Ed Oliveira and an octopus. The blow-by-blow descriptions of the bout were given by Bob Pannoni, sportscaster. A very familiar voice was heard, and we turned around to see Marianne Russo selling her pizza pies garnished with a delectable seaweed sauce.

The games were over for the day, and as we left the stadium, we saw a large sign which attracted our attention— "Eisenhardt's Underwater Apparel." As we entered the store we saw Barbara Breton and June Lawton tottering around the shop in newly-purchased diving suits. Model Helen Miranda was trying to rescue Betsy Longshaw from a diving helmet which Jesse Correa had gently placed on her head.

Tired but happy, we returned to the newly renovated Spanish Galleon Hotel run by Eddie Lopes. In the lobby a large group of tourists were seek¬ ing autographs from Ron Lincoln, speedboat champ, and his mechanics, John Cahill and Marshall Cadorette, and publicity agent, Ray Caron.

It was nearing departure time, but we couldn't leave without first visit¬ ing the school. Our old classmates, Joe Zagorski and Joan Bridgeman met us at the door. It certainly wasn't a surprise to us to learn that they had be¬ come music supervisors. While walking through the corridors, we passed the immense gymnasium where Paul Ouimet was drumming the beats for the water ballet stars, Rosie Moisan and Ann Parent. The music was his own composition of the Mermaid Mambo. As we were leaving, we saw Carol Dwyer and Helen Burgess, the school nurses.

On our way back to the Gurnmobile we stopped at Mello and Davenport Souveniers Inc. to purchase a few bushels of pearls and a copy of Lucyanne Sawyer's latest novel, The Art of Spearing Fish with a Violin Bow.

We entered the Gurnmobile and as it started on its return trip, we took a backward glance at Underwater, U.S.A.

Memories of happy moments and renewed friendships would be with us always.

Now we had a new destination— HOME.

Somerset High's reputation as an Eastern Massachusetts football power was further enhanced by the performance of its 1955 grid team. In compiling an impressive seven and one record, the Simpsonites ranked second in the state in Class D. This was the highest standing ever attained by a Somerset eleven in the long history of the school.

The 1955 grid season got underway on a rain-soaked Pottersville Field as an untried Raider eleven pounded out a decisive 32-0 win over Nantucket. On October 8th, Somerset met an ever-dangerous foe, Dighton High. The Simpson- men displayed a vicious linegame and emerged with their first Narry League victory 19-0. This marked the third straight year that the Lions failed to cross the Somerset goal line. The Raider grid machine rolled on, spearheaded by Co- Captains Cliff Hoole and Ed Oliveira. Unbeaten Falmouth and Class C Howe felt the force of a destined eleven. The powerful Blue Raiders played host to the Little Green of Dartmouth and struck hard in posting a 27-6 win. But the test awaited us, Taunton High, defending Bristol County Champions. Undauntedly the Somerset team met the challenge and gave Coach Simpson his greatest triumph. The stalwart play of All-State tackle Roland Cordeiro, backed by the entire Raider eleven brought Somerset its finest team-victory.

Next on the grid card was Plymouth High, a spirited Class C eleven, who succumbed to the Blue Wave, 25-0, in the mud of Pottersville Field. The hard- charging defensive platoon had again displayed its usual potent game.

Only traditional rival Case stood between the Raiders and the coveted Class D title. Although giving their best showing of the season, the Raiders dropped the Annual tussle to a proud Case team. In losing their first game to Case in six years, Somerset relinquished the "49ers" trophy for the first time since it was inaugurated, as well as their grasp on the State Class D leadership which they had held throughout the season.

:

Despite this, the team was an outstanding one, but their efforts would have been futile were it not for the excellent coaching staff who added another great chapter in the Simpson dynasty. Assistant Coach Luti lent untiring aid in devel¬ oping the "55" grid squad. His expertly drawn scouting reports proved in¬ valuable to the success of the team. Many players were lauded for their talents on the gridiron. Co-Captains Cliff Hoole and Ed Oliveira were picked for various All-Narry squads. Roland Cordeiro was awarded a first team slot on the All- State Class "D" team as well as gaining All-Narry recognition. Linemen Earle Dennis, Mike Freitas and Joe Costa received All-Narry notice, and the passing combination, Mel Douthwright to end Tom Harrington, gained All-League honors along with state-wide mention. Halfbacks Bob Nichols and Coot Cordeiro were chosen on the All-League platoon.

With the 1955-56 basketball season nearly completed, Somerset has clinched the Narry title and qualified for the Tech Tourney for the third consecutive year. The Blue and White intend to emulate their illustrious "54" brethren and annex the Coveted Class "C" crown. Such an achievement would be a fitting tribute to our outstanding coach, Bill Kearns, under whose astute guidance Somerset High has dominated Narry League play during the past three years. Paced by Captain Dan Salmon and cen¬ ter Tom Harrington, the Raiders have roared through sixteen Narry League tussles. The aggressive rebounding of Earle Dennis and clever ballhandling of "Coot" Cordeiro and Mel Douthwright have enabled the Somerset quintet to post an over-all record of fiteen wins and one loss.

Much of the success of the team was due to the excellent reserve strength which is essential to any championship team. With three year veterans Bill Gibney, Charlie Mendes, Joe Zagorski, and Austin O'Toole, the reserve unit displayed first-team calibre throughout the season.

Although the 1955 baseball team did not annex the Narry League championship, it did display ability and sportsmanship while placing third in tight league competition.

The 1956 outlook is definitely better, for the Blue Raiders will field an experienced team in their attempt to regain the Narry crown. Co-Captain Earle Dennis, fireballing right-hander, heads a stellar pitching staff comprised of All-Narry hurler Tom Harring¬ ton, Lou Habib, and lefty Bill Gibney. Co-Captain Charlie Mendes, a three-year veteran, provides the Raiders with the best back- stopping in the league. A tight inner defense composed entirely of Juniors boasts a keystone combination of "Sweet" Souza and Mel Douthwright. Classy-fielding Jack Furtado holds down the initial sack, and Lou Souza is guardian of the hot corner. The out¬ field will probably be composed of Ed Oliveira, Austin O'Toole, and Dee Collins.

With such an excellent lineup, the '56 squad will prove itself outstanding among its opponents and will maintain Somerset's leadership in the field of sports.

The 1955 track squad posted an outstanding record on the cinder paths in winning their fourth Narry Championship in five years. The success of the Somerset High track teams has been a result of the hard work and expert tutelage of Coach William Luti. In the past five years Coach Luti has earned the reputation of molding champion track teams and the 1956 edition is no exception.

With Captain Bob Nichols, holder of the Narry League record for the 440 as a nucleus. Coach Luti has an impressive array of talent with which to continue his winning tradition. Seniors Charlie Mendes and Henry DeMarco excel in the field events, while Ed Oliveira's specialty is the middle distances. Junior speedster Dick Botelho will be counted on for points in the 100 yard dash, and hurdler Lou Souza rounds out a competent team of tracksters. Depth in both track and field events is afforded by underclassmen Jack Collins, Harry W'ard, Dennis Collins and James Rockliffe.

This is the team that will represent Somerset High in Ihe com¬ ing spring track campaign which promises the tightest competi¬ tion in Narry history.
