The swinging sounds of Jingle Bell Rock” played by the band or of My Favorite Things” sung by the Senior Choral Group were the work of Music Director Mr. Di- Donato. The senior girls will never forget the smile on his face as they performed at the Christmas assembly. Mr. Brennan added the psychedelic” touch to our Art Department this year. The art students found themselves in a feature story in a Worcester newspaper. Students vied for a position in his esteemed Ad¬ vanced Art Workshop.” Dr. DeSalvia counseled many of us in regard to our futures as we toiled over our college applications or our inquiries for jobs. Dr. DeSalvia also served as Athletic Director and as advisor to just about anything with which we approached him. Guidance Director Harold Moran’s office was never empty, as an endless stream of students sought his advice. Mr. Moran faith¬ fully informed us of upcoming College Board Tests and available employment. Many an hour of Mr. Moran’s was spent as we discussed our anxieties over college fees, ap- pications, and interviews. His light burned late into the hours long after school had closed. Music and Art are a part of Milford High School students as taught by Mr. DiDonato and Mr. Brennan. 18 Discussing the future of one of our prospective graduates are our Guidance Directors Dr. DeSalvia and Mr. Moran.

Miss Calarese molded M.H.S. students into some of the finest stenographers and bookkeepers to be found. Learning all the rules certainly was worth it after all. A combination of undangling” dangling participles and straightening out the Budget Club accounts kept Miss Callahan busy. She was also half the reason why our Junior Class cake sale was such a success last year. Miss Callahan comes across the hall to have a few words with Miss Calarese. Any student in need of help could be sure to find it by asking Mr. O’Donnell. Whether the question be in French, Latin, Mathematics, or History, Mr. O’Donnell gave all the help we needed. A student seek¬ ing any kind of reference books usually brought his problem to Mr. O’Donell who knew just where to direct him. Helping M.H.S. students with research projects in the library is Mr. O’Donnell, School Librarian. 17

Many students sought the aid of School Nurse, Mrs. Healy, as were plagued by an occasional headache or stomach upset. A re¬ assuring smile and perhaps a dismissal slip greeted us, and suddenly we felt better already! Mrs. Healey’s tender loving care” has cured many a Milford High School student. Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Davoren, enjoyed many advantages by having his of¬ fice in the high school building. All choral group rehearsals or activity rehearsals or performances could be previewed by him. Mrs. Kalunian, Mrs. Ahearn, and Mrs. Cur¬ ran were helped by efficient office girls who spent their study periods easing the secre¬ taries’ work. Mr. Davoren’s secretaries, Mrs. Kalunian, Mrs. Ahearn, and Mrs. Curran gather around him. 19
