Their methods differg their goals, like the goals of all good teachers, are largely the same. The widely- varied educational process which they y' s represent so well is of great importance to all of us. P , L A

Mr. john C. Hall We dedicate the V266 Newtonian to Mr. 'lohn C. Hall and Mrs. Dorothy Huss. ln their approaches to reathiug, Mr. Hall arid Mrs. Huss represent two aspects of the educational process which, although diflert-nt, are equally important Fat-h has developed a way of thinking and of teaching to a level of excellenceg each has helped several generations of students with a special ability which mere years of .service cannot develop. We therefore dedicate our Yearbook to these two unique teachers. Mr. Hall came to Newton High School in l937g by now he is a legend. No chemistry students could ever forget the experience of falling under his eye, now prodding, now threatening, but always burning with the questions, How? What? XY'hy.' and, most of all, How are you going to me your knowledge? The com- petition in his classes is fierce'---no one could fake their way through a Socratic interrogation hy Mr. Hall. He makes his students learn first that they know little, and second that there is much they can know if they will try. Mr. Hall's classes are- educational experiences that quickly become an important part of every chem- istry student's high school years. i 3- .1 , , N X jjj. :-Cars-'Q -,- . f -.5 ,v V, 5 ff P. ,L -..s:s::!f'a.Q,1!5'rb5, 1:15.45 '- Vi. -'-H-fgtyi' '---1-253159 -nr: -sv- y,4'w..5g1: tfZ.?,l't2':wg-V-f...... i 't ' film itialhdiiiikliif il Q iiTg3:'k31C i '--.X-it-:-141 it--tffii-Lrg.-if 151 gti,33:rpi.iE:f3. ygiptil ,Lisgp.3- ,Q L '- .- '-.V --1.5,-11 1- - 1 ., .ang ' E.-J. :1:'.'1' Kr: 15-,S--fi ,X,: . -A- 1 'A'?1iw,.5f zt'Yi'sigj'.',L,'S:5gif:-Z1 is J 6221: EY'-1 17-5'.3j1Z'tI',-.': .1-::Q:E' -1 f'J '5X1'i1 ,I-1-1.9.2. 121.31-cz: -- .

Whereas Mr. Hall teaches large lecture classes, Mrs. Huss teaches small classes and is also guidance counselor for her stu- dents. Concern for the individttal in all aspects of his life is an important part of her approach. She can he firm when neces- sary, but het students soon find in her a rare kind of straightforward and sympa- thetic understanding which gains their trust and respect. Indeed, for Some stu- dents going to Newton Highmeant hav- ing Mrs. Huss as a teacher and advisor, and their devotion to her continues long after graduation. A V .','l' '- . ,-- .J .. -T.-. 1 ' I6 .
