Phil Frost is chosen 1966 Joslyn recipient Phil Frost maintained a high standard of excellence at Seaholm. As Student Congress president, he worked to improve the new two-party system. His term also saw the purchase of a new school flag. But Phil's most evident quality was schol- arship. Ranking among the top ten students in the class of l966, he was a National Merit Scholarship finalist and elected to the National Honor Society in his iunior year. Phil also served his school in other capacities. He was a member of Cicerone and the Varsity Club. While co-captain of the wrestling team, Phil held the Southeast- ern Michigan Association title in his weight class. Always poised and willing to serve, Phil was a true leader in his class and a deserv- ing winner of the Joslyn award. Still retaining his poise, Phil Frost goes to receive the Marc Joslyn award. fr- r,-we enior vice president Granted Joslyn award Leadership and service were Anne Buesser's two outstanding qualities. She was an active member of Scribblers, Assembly Club, BUNA, and served on the AFS and YFU committees. As chairman of the senior cheers committee, Anne led her class to a first place in that event on Field Day. Again serving her class, she was elected senior vice-president. Journalism occupied most ot Anne's time outside of school. As a junior, she was co- editor of the Highlander and served as the Seaholm correspondent to the Birmingham Eccentric and the Detroit News. Anne's high school career brought her many honors. She was chosen as the DAR good citizen and was selected as the Detroit News Teen of the Week. However, the most cherished award given her was the Marc Joslyn. A slightly nervous Anne Buesser goes forward as her name is called, to accept her award. -ri

Ytdlmm -Q Learning from Mr. Armenter how to operate the film projector are English teachers Miss Price and Mrs Swart, and French teacher Mrs. Ellis. They find movies relating to subject matter helpful for class work Composed of over one hundred instructors, Seaholm's faculty has worked to prepare students to face college, iobs and life with not only classroom, but practical knowledge, as well. By teaching students how and why to think for themselves, they aided mental growth more than students sometimes realized. Our faculty is well qualified to teach, since over seventy percent of them have masters degrees in their specialized fields. Their own learning has not stopped, many take night courses and are working on earning higher degrees. Sponsoring extra-curricular activities, such as clubs and field trips, also occupies teachers in their jobs here. Although there is no obligation, many on the staff at Seaholm feel a responsibility of helping students learn after school hours, too. As dean of students, Mrs. Darling, who has helped students with her counsel and advice for the past 37 years, turned in her resignation this year. She was in charge of extra-curricular activities, including AFS-YFU, Student Congress, and all clubs. As dean of students, she helped and guided many in personal, school, and vocational problems throughout the years. Seaholm lost a good friend when Mrs. Darling retired. This year saw administration turnovers too. Dr. Curtis, former Highland Park administrator, became the new assistant principal, and Mr. Lemle, former history teacher, stepped into the job of attendance officer.
