ACUCHES P1 NARRAIIVE POEMS , Avon's English Department, headed by Mr. Sidney Clark, instructs the student body in the more profound ideals of the language and its literature. Avon's English courses are taught by very competent instructors, Mrs. Ellovich and Mrs. Kilgour in Third Form, Mr. Stanley in Fourth Form, Mr. Ramsey for Fifth Form, and in Sixth Form, Mr. Clark. The lirst three years of English are spent in building up a substantial background of grammar and reading compre- hension. Students in these years read books by varied authors to give them a working knowledge of literature. Their Fifth Form year is spent on a course in English literature. Sixth Form English, taught by Mr. Clark deals with American literature. The course deals with the abstracts as well as the realities, and is a superb preparation for any college course. 11

EASTWOOD Comptroller Yale University, B.S., B.E. Abbointed 1953. BERNARD R. HAMMONS Assistant to the Provost Public and Alumni Relations Ad- missions Extensive Courses, Yale Univer- sity Appointed 194-8. Mr. Eastwood has long worked for Avon in the position of Comptroller. It is his job to see that the complicated financial operations of the school run efficiently. He must plan the school menu, pro- cure classroom supplies, and many other items ranging from the amount of chlorine in the pool to the quantity of electricity consumed by Avon- ians. The Comptroller is called upon to be an engi- neer, a dietician, a financial expert, and an all around consultant on almost anything. The greater portion of this manis work is done behind the scenes, and without him Avon's finances would not run as smoothly as they do. 10
