We would like to add a few phrases to clarify our part in the publishing of our school's fine newspaper. We don't intend to boast, of course, but it is only truthful to say that without the Business Staff the entire attempt Row 2 Sam Jacobs Row I would have been impossible. For we were the sturdy individuals, who, under the outstandf ing leadership of Business Manager, Frank Rosenfield, and Asst. Business Manager Stephen Saltz, went forth to sell the adverf tisements needed to finance this literary pro! ject. However, each and every one of us fully realizes that all we did accomplish was due to faculty adviser, Nlr. Landrigan, whose sage advice and understanding helped us greatly. Aside from the tireless efforts of Frank Rosenfield the ten or more staff members have proved to themselves and to the school that they are capable of financing a school paper. In closing we would like to thank the Bostonf ian Business Staff for securing ads needed to finance the Bostonian , R.M.H.S. school 5124! paper.

Unfortunately we were unable to secure pictures, but the articles were con- structive enough to outweigh the setback. Increased interest was noted after the first release, considered to be the warm-up issue. The Senior Class responded immediately to the call for articles, and we were able to put out a more appealing Christmas edition. Mr. Conway, Mr. Pearl, and Mr. Smith all deserve great credit for their fine suggestions and improvements. The staff, and Editor-in chief Art Singer, saw to it that there was always something for everyone in the bi- monthly publication. Besides the essays and editorials, a commendable job was done on sport, election, and forum coverage. This year, it was felt that up-to-date stories . . and headlines would give the reader greater benefits, and increase the interest in writing. For example, the Christmas issue had as its main article, the elections, which had taken place just two days before.
