Until Recognition to . . BERNARD MARCINKOWEY It takes seventy-two muscles to frown and only seven to smile is only one of the many fine helpful ideas given to us by Bernard Marcinkowey over the last four years. Mr. Marcinkowey, with his quick wit and warm fellowship for everybody, has won the hearts of everyone who knows him. We hate to think how we would ever have gotten along without him. GEORGE IDDINGS A general all around nice guy is the exact way to describe Mr. George Iddings. He has shown unusual interest in anything our class has wished to discuss, and with his sound advice we have been able to avert many trying situations. Without his guidance, we would have been lost. MRS. NETTYE CLARK A person who is a good listener is one whom everyone wants to know. Quiet, reserved Mrs. Nettye Clark is just that person. She was always ready to listen to our complaints and to offer her services. Her sweet and gentle ways have won her the deep admiration of the senior class. VVENDELL SMITH Although he just joined us this year as a class sponsor, Mr. Wendell Smith has proved to be a very helpful asset to our class. His dry, witty humor and mathematical ingenuity have aided us tremendously this year. VVe only wish he could have been with us longer. 5

Dedicated to . . MRS. DOROTHY THOMPSON Through the last four years, the senior class has been wondering how we shall ever repay you, Mrs. Dorothy Thompson, for all of your advice and time spent in starting and promoting the many projects undertaken by our class. We have decided that the most appropriate Way to show our appreciation would be to dedicate our book, the 1959 Crescent, to you. In this small way we hope to repay you for all your kindnesses. We shall long remember how you started us on the right path in our freshman year. Your eagerness to Work at any time and your ingenuity has helped us sponsor such events as the Junior-Senior prom, and the successful Christmas program. We shall long remember the soft-spoken, brown-haired lady with the enchanting New England accent who helped our class take all the hurdles. Thanks for helping to make our four years in high school successful. 4

Foreword As our school mascot, fierce and proud. leaps from section to section of this book, wc, the Crescent staff of 1959, have thought to Lionize those in our school to whom honor is due for some special distinction. We are extremely proud of the ac- complishments of these people and seek in this way to honor them. Although we cannot feature everyone in this honorable estate, which we would like to do, We think that the outstanding people whom we have selected for our division pages are representative of all of us. It is the purpose of this book to help us cherish those precious moments we spent to- gether with our teachers and fellow classmates in study, sports and activities during our four happy years in Minerva High. 6 0
