MISS KATHERINE R. GOODWIN The success of our show’’ is greatly due to the kindness and cooperation of Miss Goodwin. Many of us have discovered her sparkling wit and thoughtfulness through close association with her. Her devotion to the Girls’ League has been an inspiration to all its members, and her untiring effort on behalf of our Student Council, an incentive to every Weaverite. She is never too busy to help someone with a problem, and many have come under the in¬ fluence of her understanding and encouraging nature. As Dean she has set an example worthy to be followed by her girls’’. We shall remem¬ ber her not only as our Dean, but as a true friend. In farewell, the class of 1953 extends its appreciation and gratitude to a prominent director of our play. May the future hold hap¬ piness and good health for you, Katherine R. Goodwin. GIRLS’ LEAGUE EXECUTIVE BOARD Standing (left to right): Bonadies, Adams, Miss Goodwin, Vecchiolla. Seated: DeGregorio, McKay, Patitucci, Mancuso.

WE REMEMBER WEAVER The years have passed, For us so swiftly. The days have gone, We know not where. Of all that was, And all that will be, We ponder again. Dreams that once were So beyond us, Now lie at our Ev’r open door. The world is ours, Ours to conquer. We ponder no more. And still we turn Look back and see, The cares we had And joys we knew, What once was real Now just memory, Ours to keep evermore. We remember Our lunch periods, Classes, studies, Teachers, friends, so true. But most of all Cherished Weaver, We remember you. IT - '

MR. EZRA MELROSE During the three year run of our play, al¬ most everyone has become acquainted with and been helped by our assistant director,” Mr. Ezra Melrose. We have come to regard his keen wit and friendly smile as a necessary part of our life at Weaver. His encouragement and fatherly advice have been enlightening to many of our cast. The Boys’ Club has flourished under his able guidance, and his sense of fair play and good sportsmanship has rubbed off on all of us. Alumni of Weaver do not forget Mr. Melrose and neither does he forget them. He is always eager and interested in our accomplishments after high school. The only reward Mr. Melrose seeks is the success of Weaverites as they leave our stage to become part of the great drama of life.
