GERALD R. TATTON Born August 26, 1906 in Winchester, Gerald Russell Tatton moved to Medford early in his childhood and was edu- cated in the Medford Public, Schools Graduating from Med- ford High School with the Class of 1924, he entered Northeastern University the fol- lowing September and was graduated with honors with a B.A. degree in 1928. He was the nineteenth person to be inducted into the Sigma So- ciety. Appointed to the faculty staff during the following summer, Mr. Tatton assumed the duties of instructor of advertising and assistant Track Coach. He brought his first two freshman track teams through their sea- sons undefeated. When the class of 1942 en- tered Northeastern Professor Tatton was appointed Head Track Coach. Last year, the first team which he had men- tored for four years, went through the season undefeated in dual meets. A similar un- defeated record is held this year. Professor Tatton received his B.S. at Northeastern and his M.B.A. at Boston University. He married Thelma Henderson and is father of a boy aged nine and a girl aged five. As bewildered Freshmen not fully oriented to the University, we admired Gerry Tatton. In his first chat in Bates Hall he talked straight — told us briefly what he had to say, and sat down. Through a myriad of class meetings his guiding voice brought conflicting forces together into a permanent unity. He never forbade anything — he just advised. His unobtrusive interjection into the discussion — Look, fellows, here ' s what I suggest. — was always appreciated and usually carried out. As Seniors, scholastically and socially more mature, we salute the man who contributed immeasurably toward that development — Professor Gerald Tatton. ADVISOR TD THE CLASS OF 1942 30
