(Erctocnc The Business staff is also to be congratulated for the fine work which they did in making this Year Book possible. Through the untiring, ceaseless efforts of the Business Manager, Melvin Bloom, and Mr. Brougham, the sale of advertisements was managed efficiently, and extremely effectively. Their work has even more meaning when we realize that without this staff and its excellent cooper- ation this Year Book could not have been published. Even though we only had two kinds of ads this year the response we got was absolutely tremendous. So good in fact that the sale of ads and sponsors was completed by the end of January, the earliest ever. This is a great accomplishment in itself when one takes into consideration the limited size of the school and consequently the limited size of the staff. Many thanks are also expressed to Mr. Hanra- Staff han, Mr. Smith, Mr. Laquidara and the entire student body of our illustrious printing de- partment for their fine work and effort in the setting up of the ads.

Literary Staff The Year Book Literary Staff, under the expert guidance of Mr. Brougham, our faculty adviser, and the capable leadership of our editor-in- chief David Cohen, has produced a book of outstanding calibre for the Class of “59”. With the tireless efforts of assistant editor Harold Davis and the entire staff, the “59” Year Book has become second to none. The job has been vigorous and trying at times, but watching the fruits of our labors emerge into a thing of permanent value more than compensates for it. Great satisfaction is achieved because when one looks at the small size of the school and the consequent small size of the staff itself and then looks at how well the Year Book was assembled and put together he can’t help but be proud. A good deal of credit must go to the printing department for their great work in producing this year Book. Although the Year Book was small in comparison to others, the students and faculty of the printing department worked on the Year Book as if it were their greatest production.

Much of the credit goes to the faculty advisers who so eagerly and unselfishly contributed their time and knowledge. They are the Messrs. Brougham, Hanrahan, Smith, and Laquidara. A large part of the creative work was carried on the shoulders of the Editor-in-Chief Mel Bloom assisted by Bob Sontag, Dave Cohen, Steve Epstein, Barry Stein- berg, and Mike Herman. The able and expert contributors to the sports page were Butch Hul- lum, and Allen Furey. The literary staff owes much to the students who contributed their talents in the business and art staffs, without whose time and effort the Bostonian could never have published the literary efforts of its editorial workers. The successful completion of the Bostonian is a splendid example and profitable inspiration of what co-operation Mallick, Lawrence Atbert, Martin taff and school spirit can accomplish even under difficulties. The spirit shown by these boys surely will carry them to success, just as their efforts have set their feet on the first rungs of the ladder of life’s work.
