Principal Joseph J. Tosches and Assis¬ tant Principal Charles J. Brucato take time from their busy schedules to pose for our year book. Mr. Joseph J. Tosches, our Principal, has aided us immensely during our four years at Milford High School. Although at times he reprimanded us for singing in the Corridors, wearing pencils on our ears, or flirting with the opposite sex during lunch period, we knew his rebukes were for our own benefit. We truly appre¬ ciate the advice and assurance he has furnished to us. Mr. Charles J. Brucato, Assistant Principal, has also assisted us in our activities at M.H.S. The time spent in in aiding Mr. Tosches did not prevent Mr. Brucato from carrying out his duties as athletic director or from lending a helping hand to all his students. Miss Pierina M. Ramelli, Mr. Tosches’ secretary, has extended unlimited services to each and every member of our class. May her dream book, holiday jaunts, and poetry continue to entertain students fortunate enough to come in contact with her. Miss Pierina Ramelli is completely surrounded by all her office help for this picture; but where are they when there is work to be done? Principal ' s Office 7 —

The distinguished members of the School Committee are: Mr. DeCesare Attorney DeCapua, Mr. McGinnis, Dr. DePalo, Mr. Lombardi, Attorney Cenedella, and Mr. Davoren. Administration Vice Chairman McGinnis and Chair¬ man DePalo have many school matters to discuss. To The Class of 1961: It is a pleasure to express my congrat¬ ulatory sentiments to the members of the Class of 1961. During your years as students in our school system you have distinguished yourselves in many areas of achievement and behavior. You have gained the reputation of being a really good group of boys and girls, and in this day and age of hostile criticism of American youth in many of thenews media, you must be justifiably proud of this reputation. It is regretable that conditions in the world are in such a deplorable state of uncertainty, confusion and disorder as you leave high school, and, of necessity, come closer to grips with the problems of current society. Fortified as you are, and in spite of the problems confronting you in a com¬ plex, strife-torn era, I am confident that each of you will take your proper place in life and make most worthwhie contri¬ butions in your respective chosen fields of endeavor. As you graduate from Milford High School, be assured that you have my personal and most sincere wish that each of you will enjoy an abundance of the Lord’s choice blessings in your future life. Sincerely Superintendent of Schools David I. Davoren — 6 —
