r. John F. Roche This year we said farewell to one of our favorite teachers, Sir. John F. Roche, Head of the Mathematics Department, who left us to become Head Master of Vharlestown High School. Although we were pleased to hear of his promotion because we knew he well deserved it, we regretted seeing him leave. YYe realized, though, that our loss was Charlestown High School's gain. His 1131110 will always bring back 111any memories of the happy days we spent together. XYe will always remember his jovial, kindly, just personality: his witty remarks and his favorite expressions. ltoom 119 hasn't been quite the same without his special before school classes. It was unfortunate that not all of the pupils of ltoslindale High School could enjoy the pleasure of knowing Mr. Roche. .Xs a teacher of Mathematics he inspired many of us to continue delving into the more difficult parts of the subject, and he succeeded in making the fundalnentals of algebra and geometry clear even to those of us who are deeidedly not of a mathematical turn of mind. We all know that ltr. Roche would have had years of happiness and success in his new work, and that Vharlestown High School would have profited by his leadership and would have enjoyed his great genius for friendship had not his death closed so fine and so useful a career.
