RONALD ROBERT LYSAK He iloeth mach that doeth a thing well. AudioVisual Club 2, Conservation Club 3, 4, Chefs Club 4, Baseball 3, 4, Minstrel 4, Assistant Business Manager of the Farmington Student. Ronny decided to shed his quiet manner in senior year and accord- ingly we saw him as a gay endman in our minstrel show. Serious about his studies, he presented his best efforts at all times. When you meet your Pretty Baby, Ronny, don't drive her away with those corny jokes. ROGER NORMAN MAHANNAH Bat timer and men do change. Language Club 2, Conservation Club 3, 4, Chefs Club 4, Minstrel 4, Senior Supper Committee, Picture Editor of the Farmington Student. It took a few parties in senior year to change this quiet lad into a life of the party type. Usually with his friend Sisto, he enjoyed listening to accounts of out-of-school activities of his friends and responded with hearty laughter. Your smile should make you welcome anywhere in busi- ness, Rog. MARY ANN MCAULIFFE Glamor ir her wiralomf' Conservation Club 3, 4, Photography Club 2, Intramural Board 4, Field Hockey 4, Basketball 4. Shall we ever forget Mitzi's hair styles! Each Monday we were pre- pared for some new fad creation. In senior year she became a member of the girls' hockey and basketball teams. Some day, Mitzi, you will probably have many of your classmates for customers in your beauty parlor. CLIFFORD EDWARD MCCAHILL All nature wean one universal grin. Audio-Visual Club 3, Conservation Club 3, 4, Rifle Club, Vice-President 4, Rifle Team 4, Sophomore Reception Committee 4. Clifford's twinkling eyes and dark curly hair made him a favorite with the girls. His favorite pastimes were Conservation and Rifle Clubs. He became vice-president of the latter organization in senior year. As you leave Farmington High, Cliff, may you hit the mark of success right in the center. 19

MARY ANN KLATKA Blessed are the meek for they slaall possess the earth. Mary came to us in senior year from New Britain. We found her taciturn most of the time, content to use her time in preparing her lessons well. From reports of your activities in homemaking class, Mary, we think that you will make an excellent seamstress. CHARLOTTE KONOPKA An able girl shows ber spirit by gentle words and resolute actions. Minstrel 5, 4, Conservation Club 3, 4, Photography Club 2, Honor Society 5, Vice-President 4, DAR Representative 4g Delegate to Laurel Girls' State, Junior Prom Committee, Assistant Editor of the Farmington Student. Dark hair, scintillating eyes, and a radiant complexion are all charac- teristics of Charlotte. From the very first she impressed us as a good worker, an industrious student, and a girl who was determined to go to college. The faculty selected her as the DAR representative from Farmington. Persis- tence is half the battle, and we cannot see how success can evade you, Charlotte. CATHERINE ELIZABETH LEONE Ever ready to engage us in pleasant conversation. Photography Club 2g Secretary of Entertainment Club 25 Minstrel 2, 3, 45 Hilltop Club 5g Dramatic Club 4, Conservation Club 3, 4, Typist for the Farmington Student. Catherine first came into prominence as a cheerleader for the j.V.'s. Ready to enter into any school activities, she was one of the sextette who danced so well in the junior and senior minstrels. We think that you will become a good medical secretary, Cathy, for you possess all the essential qualities for success. BARBARA ELIZABETH LOSTOCCO Friendly and neat, petite and sweet. Outing Club 2, 3, Conservation Club 3, 4, Hilltop Club 33 Senior Supper Committee, Minstrel 2, 5, 4, Secretary of National Honor Society 4, Assis- tant Editor of the Farmington Student. Barbara's smallness of Statute came in handy for her role of Paige in our senior play. Interested in many things but particularly in her studies, she completed her tasks with a diligence that would satisfy the most de- manding of instructors. Such determination will not go unrewarded, Barb, and you will go far in the field of nursing. IB

This spirited fellow of Irish descent accomplished many things which would be beyond the capacity of a much taller lad. Keenly interested in the Rifle Club, he became its treasurer in senior year. If you show the same persistence after graduation that you showed at school, Pat, you should be a very good salesman. around interests. Yet never did her high grades suffer as a result of her participation. Friendly to all, her name was a must on all invitations to parties. As you head for the University of Connecticut, Bev, we hope that those blond tresses of yours won't attract too many male admirers. Best of everything to you. lg' ' DOROTHY ANNE MIKOSZ A cheerful smile it worth its while. Conservation Club 3, 4, Photography Club 2, Hilltop Club 3, Outing Club 4, Minstrel 3, 4, Fairview Beacon Staff 4. The tall, cheerful girl seen many a night after school typing for the Fairview Beacon was our friend Dotty from Burlington. The owner of a good sense of humor, she won many friends among her classmates. The athletic teams could always rely on her for some vociferous cheering. We know that you will tackle your assignments in the business world in a very . . capable manner, Dot. JOAN SASHA MILLIKEN left and youthful Iollityf' Dramatic Club 2, Outing Club 2, Photography Club 2, Conservation Club 3, 4, Minstrel 2, 3, 4, Choir 4, Assistant Editor of the Farmington Student. With a subtle remark and an outburst of laughter joan came daily to Fairview Terrace. How her eyes sparkled whether she was teasing a friend or relating her experiences of the previous weekend. When it came to harmonizing, Joan was superb. We hope that your life will be harmonious, Joanie, as you prepare to cast Anchors Aweighf' 20
