GRADUATE THE LOG 1959 STRATFORD HIGH SCHOOL STRATFORD, CONNECTICUT THE FUTURE IS OURS THE DREAM We Seniors face unlimited horizons. Vast frontiers of learning lie open before us in the sciences and in the arts. New worlds are calling — new mountains, new seas, new skies are waiting to be explored. As we look outward from our school and our com- munity we find the world already transformed by sci- THE RESPONSIBILITY With this new perspective, let us look back at our- selves. For, ultimately, is not the inner man the most im- portant consideration? From our minds and hearts will come the moral and spiritual values which we will use to chart our journey into the unknown. Likewise the respon- sibility is ours to find ways and means of making this journey a universal one, so that all mankind may benefit. Love, tolerance, and understanding are as essential as entific advancements. Our planet has become smaller as our minds have reached farther into space. Man's thirst for knowledge appears unquenchable. The limits of the earth are now being probed: the ocean's depths, the reaches of Antarctica, the steppes of Siberia. Where can we turn but to the stars? courage, perseverance, and daring. For the horizons we aspire to are but a reflection of the horizons of our own hearts and souls. This book, a record of our formative years at Stratford High School, provides us with an opportunity to take stock of our achievements before we press on to new heights of adventure. 3 LEADERSHIP IS THE KEY TO PROGRESS Mr. Donald W. Fowler, Principal Having reached that horizon known as GRADUA- TION — that point of departure and that point of no return — many of you are now thinking about new horizons. In trying to lead you to the present horizon, we must think in terms of what we want our society to be and shape you young people with that in mind. We urge you now to keep the horizons of your mind pushed back so that you can assume personal re- sponsibility in bringing to full capacity whatever talent God has given. Ultimately, we shall be known for what we do and what we are — not what we might have done and what we might have been. Mr. John Olha, Assistant Principal What a future the young person has to look forward to in the new age of atomic power and energy! The scientific, economic, and social advancement of the future can be compared to 1920 and 1959 of my own generation. What changes you of the class of 1959 will see in the year 2000, and what comparisons you too will make between the hori- zons of today and those of tomor- row. Enter upon these new horizons with great enthusiasm and hope for a bright, new world, a world in which there will be peace, pros- perity, and happiness for all man- kind. La) Mr. Elden H. Dustin, Vice-Principal With atomic power and artificial satellites a reality, space exploration begun, and new developments in medi- cine and other branches of science reported almost daily, the historical age into which the members of the Class of 1959 are entering is an age as truly subject to exploration as any time in history. Like all periods of exploration, this age has elements of world unrest and danger, but also great challenges and rewards to those who are confident, brave, and prepared educationally and spiritually. It is my confident expectation that your years in Strat- ford High School have helped to give you this preparation. The Class of 1959 has my best wishes in its aim to meet the challenges of the New Horizons. Horizons are only for those who seek, and look, and search, and endeavor. A man with his eyes on the ground and his mind on the commonplace will never feel the exhilaration of seeking horizons. Eyes are for looking, minds are for searching, and the horizons of the brave new world are for all to see, if they can. Mr. J. Oliver Carson Assistant Superintendent DESIGNERS OF SCHOOL POLICY Mr. Alton M. Torgan Chairman of the Board of Education We congratulate you for everything fine that you have achieved during these past few years; and we challenge you to accept with courage and confidence the un- finished business of your future. As you move out of the classroom of Stratford High School into your brave new world, take a good long look at yourself. You have a good, solid education. You have an understanding and working knowledge of what our country stands for. You have the mastery of informa- tion and the ability to apply it to real life situations. You have a place in your brave new world. Remember that one is accepted on the basis of one's talents, skills, and character. Have faith — faith in your God, country, family, work, in you-yourself, and in the future. With real faith, you can do much. Without faith, very little. New horizons! Far horizons! We have made marvelous advances in science, medicine, technology, etc. But we have a long way to go before the ideals of democracy are attained throughout the world. When men dwell to- gether in peace, our far horizons have been met. Be proud of your Future! We are proud of you! Mr. Edwin A. C6x, Superintendent You, the youth of our country, face a future that is as yet obscure to you. You are looking to the distant horizons of your future. Face your horizons — look to the future — prepare yourself to the best of your ability. Only in this way can each new generation build its own brave world. 5 GUIDANCE - AN INSIGHT INTO BETTER LIVING Whether you want to change a course, choose a job, or select a college, the guidance department will help you. Under the skilled direction of Miss Cunningham and her able assistants, Miss Tracy and Mr. Wordell, student problems of all kinds are resolved. Records, achievement tests, pamphlets, college catalogues — all resources are used so that the student may have a better understanding of himself, his school, and the life he will lead after graduation. Miss Ruth E. Cunningham Miss Anne Tracy Mr. Everett Wordell Students Scan Guidance Bulletin Board Seeking Scholarship Opportunities. IN RECOGNITION OF MRS. PAULINE DENNETT How inspiring to find a teacher who, be- cause of her own integrity and dignity, steadily maintains standards of decency, truth, and honesty and expects the same of her students. Such a teacher is Pauline Den- nett, whom we honor in this Log. A graduate of normal school and the re- cipient of a B.E. degree from New Britain State Teachers' College, Mrs. Dennett taught and guided young people for forty-five years — forty-two of these in Stratford. Through the years she never failed to ex- pect the best from her students, encouraging them in their ambitions and sharing herself with them in many ways. Not only has her influence gone out through her students but it has also been manifested in her work with the Rainbow Girls and the Eastern Star. Though retired from her first love, the teaching profession, she now finds the time to go junketing off on new travels; and we are certain that during her retirement she will continue to be a gracious hostess, a cheerful neighbor, and an enthusiastic participant in life. 7 The FACULTY ENGLISH Today more than ever before the need is great for understanding among men and nations. The English Department provides for the study of language skills essential for communication, encourages the study of literature of all nations, and fosters the interchange of ideas, vital to a democratic society. Miss Virginia Andre Mr. Constan Anjiras broadens our horizons Mr. Thomas Matto Mr. Frederick Maynard Mr. Thomas Puglise Mrs. Mildred Schilling Mr. Robert Speer Miss Christa Weinberger Reading — the most important requirement of educational growth — can present serious problems to the student. The Reading Center has been established to aid the student in finding his difficulties and in making progress as far as his ability will allow. Mrs. Lorraine Capron Miss Eloise Carter Mr. Joseph Clark Mr. Robert Eisenberg SOCIAL STUDIES MISS ANNE PARIS With each new jet engine, with each attempt to conquer space, the world becomes smaller and un- derstanding more essential to the community of na- tions. Aware that what's yet to come will reflect the influence of past experience, the Social Studies De- partment thoughtfully presents the record of man's historical achievements. Mrs. Pearl June Mrs. Beryl Kaufman Mr. Richard Watt Miss Mary Riley Mr. Marc Ross Mr. David Tuller 10 Miss Marjorie Boyle Miss Doris Charter Miss Honor McCarn Mrs. Rita Welborn A knowledge of language was once an adornment of the cultured, an introduction to the highest cir- cles of culture and art. Now with the whole world at our doorstep, it is a vital part of democratic edu- cation. The Language Department serves to open new channels of communication in this complex world. P A 5 W'.

RICHARD BLAKE W Immeasurable opportunities and adventures await us in the diverse fields of science. Our proficient instructors open the doors of this en- gaging field: a field whose pioneers were ridiculed yesterday, are honored today, and will be indispensable tomorrow, for without sci- entific gains our nation cannot and will 'not survive. Mr. Victor ohn Domijan Mr. Donald Thompson Mr. Herbert Wolfson MATHEMATICS Mr. Jack Bottaro Not only is mathematics vital to break-throughs in the space age, but its application is required in every walk of civilian life. Problem solving demands concentrated thought on the part of the students and acts to discipline their minds. ... To meet the needs of this swiftly-changing world, the Mathematics De- partment now offers accelerated courses. MR. KENNETH HATHAWAY 13 In art there are always exciting new ways to use old rules. Yesterday's outlandish picture is today's standard and tomorrow's commonplace. But art is not only in pictures: it may be found in anything men make and use. . . . It will soon be up to us, the Class of '59, using the principles we have learned from the Art Department, to apply the old rules in new ways to help create a more beautiful America. MUSIC How dull the day would be if man, in a moment of relaxation, could not turn to music for release from his daily tasks. There is something about a marching band or a chorus singing. Music is a beautiful mode of com- munication and an expression of life that is universal. . . . The Music Department brings to the student an appreciation of rhythm and melody and an opportunity to ex- press his musical talent. HOME ECONOMICS MISS ISABEL McCOBB Mrs. Myra Buell Cooking, sewing, kitchen planning — these and many other techniques of family management are explored in the Home Economics courses. It is here that a girl prepares for the most important career — that of housewife and mother. All phases of practical family living are mastered in these classes. Yes, even the boys will be able to hold their own in the kitchen. The Chef's Club sees to that! Mrs. Kathryn Park Mrs. Avis Alcott Mr. Leslie Faulkner BUSINESS Miss Rose Miss Mary MacDonnell Take a letter. Miss Jones! . . . No strike-overs please! . . . Feet flat on the floor when typing! . . . Oh, gosh! There goes another fingernail! These are the echoes of the secretarial rooms. They reflect the atmosphere of the Business Department. The offices of America seek well-groomed, efficient secretaries. Under Miss Goyette's able direc- tion the graduates of Business Education will more than meet these requirements. MISS IMELDA GOYETTE Mr. Earl Flagg — Print Shop INDUSTRIAL ARTS MR. CHARLES QUINLAN Head of Department Here is the hub of activity: of power saws and metal casting, of printing presses and automobile en- gines. While upstairs we find a quiet atmosphere of drawing boards and budding draftsmen, the lower rooms of the Industrial Arts Department are filled with the steady hum of machinery. It is here that a boy puts into operation a God-given gift, the gift of mechanical skill. The hand creates a tool or the eye perceives a flaw in an engine. . . . The boy works hard from day to day toward a most important goal. Industry watches, applauds, and awaits the finished product — a technically skilled young man. Mr. Thomas Dickson — Machine Shop Mr. William Powers — Metal Shop Mr. William Milish — Auto Mechanics Mr. Francis Skinner — Mechanical Drawing PHYSICAL EDUCATION Miss Helen Foland Mr . Jyle Malone Mr. James Penders Mr. Pat Caseria The mind works best when the body is sound. The Physical Education Department — through exercise, competitive sports, and a little sage advice — shows us that there is a close relationship between intellectual growth and physical well-being. LIBRARIANS The library presents a pic- ture of quiet academic pursuit. The notable thoughts, records, and achievements of the past and present are found here. Ably assisted by our librar- ians, students find the refer- ence materials? needed to sup- plement and clarify their classroom work. Mrs. Frances Waters Miss Gladys Stork The office with its records, supplies, and that medieval hardwood bench, is the center of school life. Our com- petent staff — amidst the confusion of attendance cards, demerits, and bus tickets — finds time to answer that vital question of student or teacher. Mrs. Emma Frattaroli Miss Mary Ann Carroll OFFICE STAFF Miss Jean Molgard, Mrs. Pat Yatsinko Miss Ethel Peck, Nurse Miss Peck and Miss Kramer are the guard- ians of our school health. Mass inoculations, thermometer readings, and well-trained eyes keep our school free from serious illness. With an aspirin tablet or two always handy, the nurses also prove to be the salvation of many a faculty member. Statistics show that truancy is on the de- cline in Stratford, Connecticut — due to the super-sleuthing of Mrs. May Youngs. OTHER FACULTY MEMBERS Mrs. May Youngs, Attendance Officer Mrs. Jayne Benson Mr. Warren Benson Miss Dorothea Boucher Mr. Edwin Fordham Mr. George Glover Mrs. Joan Hamilton Mr. Howard Hill Mr. John Krisak Miss Joan Kuhar Mrs. Phyllis Losaw Mrs. Theodora Nowlan Mr. David Proctor Mr. John Radder Mrs. Anita Raymond Miss Dorothea Reiner Miss Katherine Revak Mr. Nicholas Sarris Mr. Noel Smith Mr. George Vitelli Miss Ruby Wheeler CAFETERIA STAFF Mrs. E|izabeth Walker, Mrs. Ethel Aldrich, Mrs. Sofie Kristiansen, Mrs. Betty Booth, Mrs. Marion Kimball, Matron Cafeteria Manager, Mrs. Louise Gunderman, Mrs. Florence Banks. The Seniors applaud their football heroes at the first pep assembly Mr. Clark's senior hat just fits Five hamburgers to go The Spoon Year after year in true Stratford High tradition, the graduating Seniors have added their colors to the handle of the wooden spoon and presented it to the incoming class. With this spoon all the in- gredients of school life are blended together: knowl- edge, club activities, sports, social affairs, and a dash of fun for flavor. In accepting this spoon, the new senior class is entrusted with a great responsibil- ity — that of setting the standards of conduct and good sportsmanship in all school endeavors. The Senior year...! So much has been crammed into it, and so much is carefully stored away in our memories. We take with us forever all the wonder- ful events: senior hat day, the variety show, the Thanksgiving game, the Christmas ball, the big prom — and then graduation. At Longbrook Park as we are declared alumni of S.H.S., we will be reflecting on the year gone by, and at the same time looking ahead to a life quite different from our high school days. At times when the pressures and challenges of a changing world become somewhat demanding, our memories of the good fellowship we shared, the perseverance of our teachers, and the warm traditions of our school will be there to sustain us.

The treasured spoon with its addi- tional ribbon of gold and white will be ours. The long years of anticipation will be over — the class of 1960 will have attained the hon- ored position at S.H.S. As prospective Seniors let us use as our inspiration those students who have gradu- ated before us. Let us live up to their ideals and standards, and build our lives on a firm foundation. For the Age of the Atom de- mands that we take the best guidance of the past and present before we launch alone into the future. The bond of loyalty that unites all S.H.S. students should serve to reassure us in the years of decision ahead.
