Administration MR. WILLIAM W. RODGERS This school year several decisive and advan¬ tageous changes have been executed under the efficient leadership and able administration of our principal, Mr. William Rodgers. The pio¬ neering spirit, evident in the continued efforts of this man to improve our curriculum, has re¬ sulted in revision in several courses of study, forming accelerated groups in United States History, Math IV, and English IV, and initiating a new subject, Home and Family. Other out¬ standing changes are the expansion in student activities and Physical Education, and the or¬ ganization of summer school at the high school level. Through his initiative and ambition, Mr. Rodgers has enabled our school to surpass its excellent and laudable scholastic standards. MR. ALTON C. BENNETT Mr. Alton C. Bennett, now in his third year as the Assistant Principal and Dean of Boys, is important to Reading Memorial High School because of his genuine interest in every student. Since he came to Reading in 1947 as a history teacher, Mr. Bennett has served the school in many capacities: assistant football coach, head baseball coach, faculty manager of athletics, and head of the History Depart ment. Mr. Bennett, through his tireless efforts in behalf of the pupils, has earned the respect of the entire stu¬ dent body. MISS FLORENCE G. NICHOLS Miss Florence G. Nichols, the congenial Assistant Principal and Dean of Girls, is respect¬ ed and liked by all students at Reading Me¬ morial High School. The seniors have found her aid an invaluable asset on various dance and senior play committees and especially during the hectic graduation week. By showing genu¬ ine interest in each individual member of the student body, Miss Nichols has contributed im¬ measurably to the high standards of the school in its aim for new goals of scholarship and ser¬ vice.

Ralph Lawrence discusses after-gradua tion plans with Miss Hart. GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT Since the road across the plains of learning divides into many branching paths, and a decision must be made at every ford, the Guidance Department is essential to all students in their travels west toward the new lands of opportunity, achieve¬ ment, and responsibility. Attempting to solve the every-day problems of each indi¬ vidual pupil, the members of the Guidance Department at Reading Memorial High School are always willing to give help¬ ful advice concerning after-gradaution plans and to suggest pos¬ sible careers on the basis of the students’ vocational aptitudes and abilities. This active interest has made the department one of the most important in the school today. In addition to ad¬ vising pupils through personal interviews, the counselors, Mr. Karakashian, Miss Hart, and Mr. Pacino, also plan interesting and informative occupational conferences, administer various tests, supply material on available scholarships, and make up the schedule of classes for the entire school. Mr. Ara A. Karakashian Miss Helen M. Hart Mr. John B. Pacino 9
