ft ftDUCA At West Side we have acquired many valuable habits. The majority of these were attained as a result of the skillful teaching and fine examples set by our faculty. In our history classes, we were encouraged to think objectively. This trained us in the identification of real issues. past and present, without the beclouding appeal of emotions. Instruction in English improved our ability to speak and to write well. The development of sound, healthy bodies was one result of our physical education guidance. Then. too. the presentation of many lessons was carefully supplemented by reading assignments from various magazines and books. Films, as well as other audio-visual devices, were also used to help us visualize the more complex concepts in such subjects as physics and biology. These characteristics, offered by our faculty with warmth and friendliness, created an educational atmosphere which we will always remember. As a result, we leave West Side with cherished memories of a faculty which helped us to enter adulthood with a rational and decent outlook on life. 4 Salvatore Commisa Marion Corwin Helen Franzblau Irving Friedman Thomas Higgins Edith Jaffe Robert Lett Hcrmine Leiterig Louise Minchin Florence Newman Barbara Sheer Edwin Rissland Jeanette Allen Catherine Cullimore Leonard Friedman Anne Johnston Eunice Liberson Sidney Rosenberg PP 1 - Andrew Siska Carmen Dispcnzicrc Frances Kaplan Lucille Offcnkrantz Margaret Sullivan

Mr. William Herron. Guidance Counselor Mrs. Lillian Lago, Adviser Mr. Herron, our guidance counselor, advised us wisely through our three years at West Side. Through his intelligent counseling we gained an understanding of the work that will challenge us after we graduate from high school or college. He also helped some students in the preparation for the College Boards examination and others in obtaining various positions in the business world. Our senior advisers. Mrs. Lago and Mr. Kriegs-feld. gave their considerable time and offered many helpful suggestions for our senior activities. Senior Day. the Mardi Gras dance. The Boyfriend. and the prom would not have been successful without their planning and advice. We hope that other graduating classes will be as fortunate as we were in the selection of the class advisers. Mr. Louis Kriegsfeld. Adviser 6 BIT OF HUMOR may be detected as we meet with our counselor and advisers.
