Anderson The guiding notes in our Senior Sonata are our six advisers: Mr. William Clancy, Mr. Fales Newhall, Mrs. Goldie Parks, Miss Ann Ratto, Mr. John Robinson, and Miss Eugenia Wilson. How lucky we are to have such willing teachers to help us with our problems and lead us in the right direction! Quite a responsibility confronts these teachers as senior advisers. First, they assist in the planning of the senior dances. This planning includes inventing a theme, making decorations, deciding upon refreshments, and procuring an orchestra. Certainly, this is a big bill to fill! And there are three dances given for seniors: an informal, a semi-formal, and a formal. The last dance requires extra work since it is the senior prom held at the auditorium. Not only do these teachers sponsor and plan dances, but they also sit in at all com- mittee meetings including those of the banner, color, ballot, and hat committees. Now, at the end of our high school career we want to extend our thanks to these unforgettable friends. Ann H. Atanian Albert M. Ayers Barbara E. Baker Robert A. Ballard

VIKRTUOSOS Now for the male recipient of this high honor! “The Charles F. Warner Achievement Medal is awarded to John Bernard Donovan, son of Mr. and Mrs. John B. Donovan of 138 Roosevelt Avenue, for his excellence in all phases of school life. One may well marvel at his outstanding scholastic record which he has maintained throughout his three years here at Tech. His participation in school activities is equally good. As a leader, John is hard to beat, for he has proven his abilities in this field many times. Admired by all, students and faculty alike, because of his cheerfulness and dependability in all situations, he is surely a credit to Tech. MHere’s to your success in the coming years, John!” There is a burst of applause concluding this announcement, and the two winners stand to acknowledge the acclaim. As the last echoes fade away, the conductor resumes his position at the podium, and the Tech Symphony continues. 2a

emer Dolores W. Ballou Shirley D. Barr Leon J. Bastien, Jr. Donald A. Bates Golly, do we have some sharp seniors this year! They stand out as do the high notes in our musical score. First, we have John Donovan, president of the senior class. John has the admira- tion of his classmates and teachers because of his pleasing personality and school spirit. Tech is proud of his speaking abilities, for he proved to be outstanding at the Model Congress. Of course you all know the seniors’ vice- president, Ted Dimauro. Besides this task Ted has undertaken the presidency of the band and vice-presidency of the Student Council. Another personality you must meet is Ann Elphinstone, the charming Miss the lucky seniors have for secretary. Ann has to her credit many extra-curricular activities including the office of News Editor of the Tech News. Concluding, we want to wish success to these outstanding Techites, Normand J.
