Nickname: Cluff WENDY GLASGOW CLOUGH Who is usually seen hopelessly rummaging through her book locker in quest of dog-eared papers and books relegated there months ago? Although neatness is not one of her virtues, Wendy is not lacking in other talents. Ever since Wendy joined our class in the fourth grade, she has held the position of top scholar, never ceasing to amaze us with her phenomenal memory. Having won several French prizes, she is the pride and joy of Mme. Cleve. When not complaining of a ninety-five on a math test, Wendy can be seen frantically try- ing to shift gears on the Hillman fshe insists that this is only to keep her awake on the roadl, or leading her J.V. team to victory on the hockey field. Wendy's interests in sports range from under the sea explorations to mountain climb- ing. Having spent this past summer in Switzerland, Wendy enjoyed the latter sport while terrorizing her faint-hearted friends as she nonchalantly proceeded across narrow ledges. Wendy has been an outstanding student and will continue to be one at Radcliffe. In whatever Wendy does, she is sure to be successful. 20 Favorite Expression Passion Usually Seen: Fleelng from Mme Cleve Probable Occupation Chorus girl at F0l16S Bergere Pet Like: Bread crusts Pet Hate: People who call her Cluff Noted For: Her clothes Fall Tennis 57 Hockey 58 JV 59 Captaln 60 Modern Dance 57 58 59 60 Tennis 57 58 59 Social Service Committee 57 58 59 60 Dramatlcs '57g Art '58, 59 60 Dial Associate 60

ISTORY MULLIS. This year brought lots of work, but also the added benefit of escaping a term paper. The class dance was again an important feature of the year. The ill-fated 4'Around the World in Eighty Days theme was successfully obliterated by an ambitious eighth grade, who used the flats for their operet- ta. However by subversive and unparliamentary activities we got a new theme, '4The Werewolf Whirl,', and much more money. In our Junior year, work began in earnest with speeches, term papers, and college boards, however, to help us share these problems, we received TOM SMITH, DICK ROGERS, and ROGER STEVENSON . . . and GRIDLEY. Although bur- dened by our vast wealth, the shekel grabbers once again set to work vying for concessions with the Class of 1959 at football. basketball, and baseball games. The Gridiron Gavotte or Football Freebles or Junior Cyp was undoubtedly the nadir of effort by the class, but by our magic touch, the borrowed and donated decorations were turned into profit. The Junior Prom of the Class of 1960 will be long remembered for having used over 300 feet of extension cords and over fifteen spot lights, and for blowing more than a dozen fuses and burning out a powerstat. In addition we had 2100 gallons of water in an indoor pool kept in continuous circulation by three pump- driven fountains and a twenty foot Buddha smiling inscrutably at the chaperons. The whole gym was a beautiful model of a Japanese garden in the Spring - a perfect background for the final dance of the school year. September 1959 saw the hallowed halls of learning at Tower Hill re-invaded by the determined horde and one won- derful foreign exchange student, NOBIE SMITH. The Senior Room was noisily commandeered by the sports fanatics watch- ing tense hopscotching, ping-ponging, volley ballooning, nose tweaking, and yearbook shuffleboarding. Additional escapades consisted of periodic apple and orange harvesting and pop- corn making during wild fourth period study halls. Wednes- day seventh period study halls have become quite known. Coats hanging over the doors and Senior girls doing modern dance or exercises are happenings not at all uncommon. Thus the illustrious, hard-working and fyes, we admit itj brilliant Class of 1960 has completed fourteen years of over- Nhelming accomplishment.

PAUL TERRY COLLISON When Terry came to Tower Hill in the ninth grade, he brought with him an avid interest in the arts f including girlsj. Terry's devo- tion to the big band sound was manifested every year as the class i decorated for its dance to the blast of his records. Not content to just listen to music, Terry plays the drums in the dance band and is mastering the clarinet. His achievements in the fields of art, where he won the Haon award, and in dramatics, where he won a certificate of merit at the Delaware Play Festival, are well-known to all. Terry is unique in that he is the only boy in the class who is already considering the prospects for dates when he comes home from college. Terry finds himself constantly amazed by the tensile strength of the tight skirts at Tower Hill and is frequently heard expostulating on the corruption of the same. As Evergreen Business Manager and Dance Committee chairman, Terry has demonstrated business acumen and ability to balance any books. With his talent for arguing and ability for sifting facts, Terry's ambition to be a lawyer is sure to be fulfilled. 2I
