Physical Education -O ffice Nurse Rena E. Bradley Marion B. Cummings Meet our nurse, Mrs. Parent Ethel J. Mitton Now comes the final portion of this program. The right man to start us off is Mr. Thomas Carey. As our new football coach, who has come to us from the University of Massachusetts, he has worked tirelessly to put our team “in shape:’ Now we should like to introduce Miss Miriam Hatch, one of our two popular coaches for girls’ athletics, also the owner of a new green convertible. The next person might be mistaken for the occupant of the last house on “Allen’s Alley?) We know him as Mr. John Kalloch. Johnny is the basketball coach, and he ably trains championship soccer squads. Tall and good-looking, Bill Lawler is our “Casey Stengel’? (That’s baseball coach!) In addition he assists Johnny with “hoopartists” and Tom with gridiron performers. This mike will have to be one that operates under water, for Mr. Milton Orcutt is next. As the swimming coach, Milt has come up with many champion teams and record-breaking individuals. Surprisingly enough, he even spends a great deal of his spare time swimming! One of our live-wire teachers is Miss Ann Ratto, an active producer. Besides coaching several afterschool sports and the cheerleaders, she trains individual groups for presentation in Tech shows. As the final portion of “Meet the Producers” approaches, we interview our engineers in the main control room. The head engineer, Miss Rena Bradley, is a very capable secretary and a hustler. In a special section we find Mrs. Marion Cummings busily typing for Director Leo Gans. Here is Mrs. Jo Mitton who makes certain that each student and teacher has what he needs (in the line of school supplies, that is)! But we must not sign off without a greeting to Mrs. Parent, our friendly nurse, whose smile and helpful manner have made her a favorite with us. Miriam Hatch Thomas J. Carey William J. Lawler Ann R. Ratto John R. Kalloch Milton H. Orcutt 19

Home Economics-Music- Guidance GUIDANCE CAN HELP YOU PLAN A, CAREER! © Lee S. Crabtree Melvin A. Lynch Miriam M. Whittemore “Just Between Us’ — Miss Whittemore Mrs. Dudley, Joan Dudley. Now it’s time for our talk with teachers of Home Economics on the third floor. Miss Helen Borrner is the first whom we meet, and she is anxious to tell us about her experiences in Europe last summer, but she must hurry to her special pattern-making class. From the wonderful aroma, there’s no doubt that Miss Beatrice Miller is busily planning for another social event. She has a marvelous collection of tempting recipes. Hello, Mrs. Parks! I'll raise the microphone, for, as you listeners know, Mrs. Goldie Parks is tall and dignified. She is a wonderful help when the girls wish to choose correct styles and patterns. Mrs. Parks has an unusual hobby of collecting doorways! Miss Eugenia Wilson has a very busy schedule, for she not only teaches home management, but she also ably trains the girls in nutrition and hygiene. . . . Listen for our next signal! When static seems to hinder our operations, the Guidance Department is the place to get fixed up. Mr. Melvin Lynch helps the boys solve their program difficulties, and he does an exceptionally good job of placing our graduates in suitable positions and colleges. Mr. Stanley Sprague is the counsellor for freshmen boys. With his jovial manner and understanding ways it doesn’t take him long to put these fellows “on the beam.” On the female side is versatile Dr. Helen Theinert whose counselling password might well be “Testing 1-2-3-4.” The fourth of this fine staff is Miss Miriam Whittemore. Her enjoyment of guidance work is supplemented by her delight in outdoor sports. Our own disc-jockey is friendly Mr. Lee Crabtree. With seemingly no more than a flick of his baton he has organ- ized some fine musical groups. — Keep tuned for our final portion! Helen G. Borrner Goldie S. Parks Helen N. Theinert Beatrice D. Miller Eugenia Wilson Stanley A. Sprague 18
