We remember these teachers as friends. MISS CHRISTINE SAUER The retirement of Miss Christine Sauer last year, brought to a close her long career of dedicated service to students. All of her students enjoyed her wit in the classroom. She had a special kind of warmth which endeared her to her pupils. Miss Sauer loved beauty and decorated her homeroom gaily. She received her B.S. and M.A. from Columbia University, and did further graduate work at Springfield College. While at Classical, Miss Sauer taught English, Reading Efficiency, and Vo- cabulary Building. She was also adviser to Pierides. All those who know her, teachers and students, will miss her presence deeply. DR. EDNA FREDRICK After twelve years of dedicated teaching here at Clas- sical, Dr. Edna Frederick retired. For ten years she was chairman of the language department. Students will re- member her as a kind and fair teacher. Her pleasant temperament always made it a joy to be in her class. Dr. Fredrick is a graduate of Mount Holyoke and Bryn Mawr. She also attended the University of Paris. While at Classical, she advised the National Honor Society besides her regular duties as a French teacher. Classical will miss her.

BSMINSTRATION The friendships that are formed between faculty members and students are an important part of the educational system at Classical. Exchanging ideas with a teacher or adviser helps a student to de- velop a better understanding of himself and those around him. Cheryl Midwood, Mary Karczmarczyk, and Estelle Kaplan compare life in the United States with that in Africa as they talk with Mr. Annino and his guest Joshua Kolawole from Nigeria.
