Although in some ways it has been to our disadvantage to have so many different advisors, it has also been beneficial in that we have had the chance to work closely with different people. MR. CASINGHINO, who was with us while we were in the seventh and eighth grades, helped us in estab¬ lishing our system for col¬ lecting dues. MRS. McCLOSKEY was with us from seventh grade up through the middle of our sophomore year. MISS HIXSON was our advisor for the latter half of our sophomore year. OUR FORMER SCHOOL BOARD We pay tribute to our school board through whose efforts we have had the opportunity of enjoying ample classroom space, modern standards of education, and capable teachers. ADVISORS MRS. FEENEY was with us during our junior year and during her stay helped build enthusiasm in our class and was a boon to the Jr. Prom and the Christ¬ mas Rhapsody.

SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE To the Class of 1959: Each person’s life is marked by certain events which retrospect shows were turning points in shaping that life. That is, at certain times one is faced with a choice of action and his decision in¬ fluences the whole course of his life. Graduation is such a choice-point. Where does one go from here? Shall it be to work or to further schooling? If to work, what kind of work shall it be? If to further schooling, what shall be its nature? One key to decision is found in the common expression of good wishes often written in yearbooks: Best wishes for a happy and a useful life.” Note the two ingredients—happiness and usefulness. Both are needed. Ask yourself: Will this vocation bring self-realization and, at the same time, make a contribution to the welfare of others? If you can truthfully answer, ”yes,” your choice has been a wise one. DR. WILLIAM M. FARRIS B.S., M.Ed., Ph.D. Yale University
