CLASS OF 1 9 S 0 5 SENIOR FACULTY Miss Uu isa E. Heckert, the mechani- cal drawing teacher, graduated from the Massachusetts School of Art ami has a H. S. E. degree from the Harvard Summer School. Her opinion of the hoys of the high school, w ith whom she has had the most contact, is on the whole lavorahle. ' Ehis summer M iss Heckert is going to make her second trip to Europe where she is to take a Eine Arts course at Munich, (ler- many. She is interested in the real basic development of modern design. She didn’t tell us so, hut we hear that .M iss Heckert’s engagement has been an- nounced to Mr. Albert R. Miller. .Mr. Howard Hottomlev, otherwise known as “Topper” graduated from Hoston L ' niversity twice (K)15, 1916) and has R. A. and M. A. degrees from that college. He saw (and felt!) active service overseas in the World War. He was such a poor private that they made him a sergeant-major. Before coming to I )edham to teach, he taught in Provincetown and Haverhill. His hobbies are bridge and the “talking” pic- tures. We’ll always remember “I ' oiiiier” for his funny stories and the way he had of scaring us into learning our L iiited States history and Problems. .M ESS . Eargaret Bovxtox, whom we have seen tripping so swiftly through the corridors, graduated from Mt. Holyoke College with an A. P . degree. In 1919 she came to Dedham and is now the head of the Erench Department. In i9 to she cajia- hly served as faculty-advisor to the Student Council. .M iss Boynton is one of those dainty crea- tures who has a captivating way of rolling her eyes or lifting an eyebrow. Although she is so charming, we all know from ex- perience that we can go only so far and no farther fooling with her. Believe us when we tell you that you have to study your French or — well, we’ll spare you the ghastly details. Radcliffe College sent Miss Ji’LIA Campbell out into the hard cruel world in 1921. In 1926 she went to France to study, where she gained experience teaching French hoys and girls who she says are little Stoics in comparison with the live- wire American pupils. She taught in Green- held and Southbridge, Massachusetts, be- fore coming here. Do you remember the stories Miss Camp- bell used to tell us about those who went to France and used incorrect pronuncia- tion? How do you say “corn beef and cab- bage” to a Frenchman, anyway? Miss Iaww Ci.ot gh graduated from Colby College with an A. B. degree and has nearly acquired the necessary points for an A. M. degree from Boston University. She likes the friendly attitude of the pupils of our high school. Outside of school her chief interests are gardening and book- collecting. How many times we’ve heard the excla- mation Irom some |ioor soul in misery over mathematic.s — “Isn’t Miss Clough a dear?” Both boys and girls agree with this state- ment, although the former have their own vernacular in which they express • Miss Lucy’s” “school-wide” popularity. She has been a helpful advisor to our class and was faculty-advisor to the Student Council, 1927-29.
