0l elfU0l The footsteps that cross these pages will always be for us, the class of 1952, symbols of the friendships and the accomplishments that have attended our progress through Towson High School. To this ideal of progress we dedicate our yearbook. We have walked the pathways of school life sometimes gaily, some- times seriously, following in the footsteps of those who went before us and established the Towson traditions and the Towson spirit. Our steps were uided b g y our associates in the faculty and the ad- ministration, by our elected class officers, and by our school leaders. We have benefited by following the footsteps and we hope that we in turn have formed paths to guide others in their journey toward knowl- edge and the good life.

Miss R. Louise Balls serves as vice-principal of Towson. Her duties are numerous and her un- derstanding sincere. In handling the discipli- nary problems of the school, Miss Balls has shown her graciousness, poise and patience. This year Mr. Austin Bittle has become a full- time member of the administrative staff, taking care of all the school's supplies and the many odd administrative jobs which must be done. Miss Ruth Wack and Mr. James Leslie are able and understanding counselors of the guid- ance department, ever-ready to help with stu- dents' problems and post-graduate planning. In the school library Mrs. Sally Clevenger and Miss Burleigh Kehler ably guide students in the selection of books and the location of informa- tion. Mrs. Elizabeth Payne, the nurse, can be found in the health suite administering to the sick. Office records, mimeographing and corre- spondence are efficiently handled by the princi- pa.l's secretary, Miss Betty Manser, and ofiice clerks, Miss Shirley Chelton and Mrs. Evelyn Harr. We are very grateful to these important ad- ministrators of the school for their patient and understanding guidance.
