 Our teachers are very understanding What a wonderful feeling it was to know we could count on our teachers wav beyond the usual trig, problem or physics experiment! Ap- pearing at almost every sport’s contest, was Mr. Charles P. Forbes, faculty manager of athletics, to show his loyalty to our teams. Mr. Corner Davies gave a great deal of his dramatic and musical talent to assist Mr. Corbin in making “Fortune Teller such an excellent show. Ready to answer our numerous senior English questions was M iss Charlotte ShaefTer, librarian, who had an amazing variety of the “right books,” and could always tell us just where to line! what. Concerned with teenage problems in and out of school, Mr. I loward Freeman conducted popu- lar classroom, study hall, and after school dis- cussions, also stimulating our thinking through the Student Council. College boards were bound to loom up in the course of our senior year, and Miss Margaret McCullough was in- valuable in giving so much of her time for our individual or group review classes. Mr. Law- rence Richards, eager for us to get acquainted with the problems of our day and age, planned many opportunities for us to take part in Model United Nations programs. The friendliness and understanding of each personal adviser, and the capable guidance of Principal Joseph I). Moore and Miss Mary E. Lindcnmuth led the 1953-54year at Lansdowne- Aldan High School to a happy ending. .1 ir.f .1. Yarl points out the source oj Brazilian products to 1). Alowry, C. Strunk, L. Lorsh, P. Anns, and 1).
