l Yearbook staff Some ofthe last students to leave Ballou in the afternoon are the members of the Roundtable staff. Their time is spent drawing layouts, writing copy, and stamping pictures, and in attempts to meet posted deadlines. Mrs. R. Francis Allen, mother, teacher and yearbook advisor, deserves special credit for the long hours she put into the production of this book, both at school and at home. Although the staff suffered many setbacks, disappointments, and headaches, their desire to produce a good exciting book kept them going. Tennis team The Varsity Tennis Team of '69 promises to be the best in the history of Ballou. These explosive players display skill in every aspect of tennis, with then strong forehand and backhand drives. Row l: D. Augustine, R. Salmon. Row II: B. VanBuren, T. Renee. Row l: P. Gillis, A.
