We ore confident that Mrs. Geller will prove to bo a considerate and patient listener, and an even more sincere friend. DIRECTORS PLAYHOUSE For many years Dr. Seamster has seen the students of Arts High rise from shy freshmen to proud seniors. As director of our studios, he has not only seen these individuals change but he has assisted in their development. He knows of the work each individual does to make the school's daily production a success, and even when we leave, he follows our careers in the armed forces, at college, or in the world of work. He is devoted to us. the people whom he directs, and we want him to know how much we appreciate this. The greatest directors are known by their productions, and in our achievements and those of the other graduates of Arts, the master touch of Dr. Seamster can be seen. MRS. BEATRICE G.
