Miss Katherine R. Goodwin Success in our venture at Weaver could never have been attained without the guiding hand of our Dean of Girls. Mi ss Katherine Goodwin. With her friendly smile and pleasant disposition, she has proved a worth¬ while friend and sympathetic listener to all who have come in contact with her. As faculty advisor of the Girls’ League, one of Weaver’s most popular and most active organizations, Miss Goodwin has played a vital role in the functioning of our community and has won the admiration of all her girls.” In bidding Miss Goodwin good-bye, we — the Class of 1952 — cherish the memory of our everlasting friendship.

Mr. Melrose In the person of Mr. Ezra Melrose, we have been fortunate to have a vice-principal and counselor of the highest quality. Through his familiarity with vocational opportunities and college prospects, Mr. Melrose has helped many seniors to decide upon their futures. His amiable manner and cheerful disposition, together with his abundant supply of sound advice, have made him highly popular and respected. As faculty advisor of the Boys’ Club since its forma¬ tion in 1948, he has had a great hand in the outstanding program and enrollment of this organization. For the job that he has done so well, we leave Mr. Melrose with our hope for his continued success. 10 BOYS’ CLUB EXECUTIVE BOARD Seated, left to right: Perrone, Moshovos, Sottile, Moriarty.

MISS ELINOR MOSES Those who knew Miss Elinor Moses could not fail to be inspired by her delightful sense of humor, her stimulating personality, and her optimistic philosophy of life. The unwavering loyalty and devotion which she exhibited toward her students and her school won the deep confidence and true respect of everyone. Although — in a physical sense — Miss Moses has now been taken from us, yet the influence that she exerted in developing the character traits of her students will always stand as an immortal monument to her life. Eternal peace has descended on the body of Miss Moses, but her spirit will continue to live on at Weaver. Although all of us did not know MISS DORIS L. PRESTON, secretarial assistant at Weaver, her death saddened the whole Weaver community. Miss Preston came to Weaver as secretary with the first class in 1923. She was a member of the Women Teachers’ Club and the Hartford Secretarial Association. Her duties were numerous, and one of her special interests was the music department. Throughout her many years at Weaver Miss Preston was a loyal and conscientious worker. 12
