Kolouch, and Mr. Leslie W. Crowson, will leave with us. It is to them that we dedicate our yearbook. Mr. George Higginbottom Our principal, Mr. Higginbottom, a dedicated chemistry teacher and then an effective administrator, has been principal of Belmont High School for twenty-four years. As principal he has been an intermediary among the school committee, the faculty, and the student body. At times of crises, such as the period following the fire, he has been able to coordinate these groups and guide them towards successful solutions. Mr. Higginbottom has always been concerned with the needs of the students and has done everything possible to help them to further and better their education. Mr. Kolouch, the assistant principal, was also a chemistry teacher before becoming an administrator. As assistant principal he has efficiently directed enforcement of school rules. As advisor to the business staff of the Blueprint and to the student council, Mr. Kolouch has shown that his interest in the activities of the students goes beyond that of mere discipline. Mr. Joseph F. Kolouch Mr. Crowson, director of the Vocational-Technical School, came to Belmont’s Vocational School in its first year of existence, twenty-five years ago, as an automotive instruc- tor. He has demonstrated an active interest in his field, such as being past president of both the Belmont Teacher’s Association and Massachusetts Vocational Association. As principal of the Belmont Vocational-Technical School, he has directed the training and guidance of those students who are gaining technical skills in preparation for their future. Mr. Leslie W.

Orton Dean of Boys It seems only yesterday that you as a class came to us with some anxiety, and yet with a basic confidence and desire to find a good road to education for the future. The school has endeavored to guide and en- courage each of you along a path which will enable you to have a meaning- ful program of study and extracurricular participation in the light of your talents and aspirations. We think of your experience as one in which some road blocks have suggested a redirection of your aims or emphases, one in which new avenues of interest have opened up and become very meaningful, and one which by now finds you ready to move on to many different high- ways of adult experience. We as counselors take pleasure in recognizing the accomplishments of our students. As a class, you have been outstanding in your capabilities and in your sincerity. It is our hope that the goal which you have set will prove rewarding in the years to come. Mr. William J. Brogna Guidance 9 And then Papa Bear said to Goldilocks .

Sophomore Day of Reckoning. “Call me Ishmael.” 71 SPRING Senior Class Officers Three years have passed since I’ve been your advisor And now, we are all three years wiser; But 1 can remember that first day well, When you greeted me with a hoot and a yell. “Here’s your advisor,” Mr. Higginbottom said; So there you were, about to be led. 1 gave you the pitch, you took it as fate— You’re Sixty-eight, and you can be great. With that we set off on a much-travelled road Both hopeful the other would carry the load. There was work to be done; there was no time to lose; There were dues and dances, there were dances and dues. To lead your class in its educational toil You chose Rooney, Muckjian, Winn, and Boyle. These leaders you chose, they took a bow, But they’d work hard, 1 know that now. As time moved along, you showed what you had. Sixty-eight’s class was not at all bad. Scholars, athletes, and those who took chances; And let’s not forget those “funny class dances.” The dress code, the haircuts, each had its place While in class you discovered Shakespeare and space. Shall 1 mention the rallies where spirit abounded? To be sure Sixty-eight was very well-rounded. And now time’s come to say farewell, To say good-bye to that last school bell, But, as always, you work in a stylish way, Departing with you are Misters H., C., and K. So it’s off to the world, but you needn’t fear Some valuable memories will always be here. And for my own part, 1 take it as fate— “You’re Sixty-eight, and you surely are great.” Leading us through the seasons JOSEPH F.

Since the class of 1968 came to Belmont High, three happy and memorable years have passed. We thank Mr. Donald Crowley, our class advisor, and the patient teachers for their instruction, foresight, and dedication. We appre- ciate, also, the entire school administration for their guid- ance, especially at the time of the fire in spring of 1967. Now the future is facing us and each one of us must choose his own role in life. May we all be strong enough to endure the world’s ever-increasing pace. May we benefit from our experiences at high school and strive for success so that Belmont High will be as proud of us as we are of it. May we ever keep in mind that the greatest happiness, the deepest satisfaction, and the truest guide in life is to endeavor, always, to do our best toward achieving our individual goals.
