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.

(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.

This year’s business manager was Dave Cohen, and his staff consisted of Mike Mallick, Hal Davis, Barry Weingart, and Mel Bloom. Taking into consideration the size of the school, the size of the staff, and the fact that only two papers were published, the men of the Boston- ian Business Staff deserve a lot of credit. Although they didn’t turn in a great amount of ads, nobody can say they didn’t try. They were out soliciting ads every free moment that they had. Many business men of this district felt that they just couldn’t see their way clear to purchase an ad, while still others felt that buying an ad would help not only the school, but also their own businesses. The solvency of the “Bostonian” was due to co-operation between teachers, treasurers, and staff members, insuring a maximum number of subscriptions in activities fees. The Bostonian Business Staff would like to thank Mr. Brougham, Mr. Hanrahan, and the printing department for their efforts.
