QUTSTANDING SENIORS The clicking of typewriters is a familiar sound to Barbara Heffleger and Cyn- thia Aubley, outstanding seniors in the field of business education. In this field. promptness. efficiency, and a sense of responsibility are mandatory. These girls have been very successful in ful- filling these requirements. T Efficient and neat would certainly de- scribe Merrilee West and Sandra Ma- lan. our two outstanding seniors in the field of home economics. Because of their interest in new ideas and their flair for fashion, homemaking will al- ways be a pleasure for them and not lust a duty. X C1 . staff?

The seniors who merit the greatest praise in the field of instrumental music are Bill Bums and Andy Gor- don. Bill, who has been active in every phase ot instrumental music at Burroughs from dance band to orchestra, is also active in extra- curricular musical activities such as the Burbank Police Boys' Band. Andy has contributed much oi his time to band and orchestra, and served this year as president ot the dance band. Andy has also served as vice-president of Boys' Council and president of Senior Class. This may look like a row, but it's really iust Sharon Moore and Danny Richards rehearsing a scene from the Senior Play, which they helped make such a tremendous success. These two versatile people could do comedy or tragedy with equal ease and their portrayals added much appeal to many drama productions at Burroughs. fs 1, 5 5 5,941 Dance awards seemed to come easy to such talented and enthusiastic dancers as Leslie Weiner and Caro- lyn Fitzpatrick.

The Winter Senior Council started the organization of all activities concerned with graduation. The biggest issue they had to lace dur- ing their term of olfice was what to do about the Senior Area. They settled the issue very successfully. The area will be a pleasant place for Senior get-togethers. Lett to right: Leslie Weiner, Ioan Free- man.
