RETIREMENT MISS HATTIE E. BOAK When the name of Miss Hattie E. Boak is mentioned, many remember that for a number of years she was faculty adviser to the Honor Society and played an integral part in making it the fine organization it is today. Also, many will recall that she has always had a rare talent for raising flowers. The hundreds of students, however, who have had her in the business education department through the years are much more likely to think of her line qualities as a teacher, for she was dedicated to her profession and always took an active interest in the welfare of the individual student. Sincerest wishes for a fruitful and happy retirement are certainly extended to her from the students and faculty of Jamestown High. 9

RETIREMENT MR. RAYMOND WHEELER This year is the climax of an inspiring teach- ing career for Mr. Wheeler, who has been a member of the Jamestown High School faculty for thirty-nine years. Mr. Wheeler has thor- oughly enjoyed his teaching of electrical courses. He has proudly said that most of his students have gone away to college and are succeeding very well in life. After his retirement, he plans to spend more time working in his basement shop and in his flower garden. Florida winters and Jamestown summers are also a part of his plans. Our sincere hopes are that Mr. Wheeler will find future years satisfying in every way. Mr James H. Breckenridge Miss Margaret L. Hoolt Miss Rosemary Leei Among the teachers leaving Jamestown High School, who are comparatively new to its students, are Mr. Breckenridge, Miss Hook, and Miss Leer. Although their teaching careers here have been short, students and their co-workers will undoubtedly miss them. To them we extend wishes for much success in the years ahead, wherever they may be.
