j)epical l o n MRS. EMMA B. HORN has brought to her position as Assistant Guidance Director a keen sense of the worth of the individual student and an intense interest in his welfare, in and out of school. She has assisted many a senior to make an effective personal transition to adult life, and has welcomed many a freshman into our midst with encouragement and understanding. Under her supervision, the Marshals have guided incoming “frosh” each year into the high-school way of life. In acknowledging our sincere appreciation to Mrs. Horn for all she has done for us, may we wish her every happiness in the years ahead. It is with great pleasure that the Class of 1953 dedicates this Lawrencian to Miss Ellsworth and Mrs. Horn, in respectful and grateful recognition of their contribution to the youth of our community. MISS GRACE ELLSWORTH has been in charge of dramatic arts at Lawrence for many years. Her devotion to the art of the theater has been evident in all her dealings with hundreds of students of speech, personality, and dramatics. She has brought to our school a touch of Broadway, an ever-present enthusiasm for effective speech, and a passion for perfection in her direction of the Senior Play and the Buskin Tournament, the major annual productions. In expressing our gratitude to Miss Ellsworth for her years of service to our school, may we extend to her our sincerest best wishes for future happiness.
