Mrs. THERESA ZAMPROGNO Boston University C.L.A. Head of Foreign Language Department, French Mrs. Z. is a very busy woman for, in addition to classes, she is the girls ' guidance counsellor in grades nine through eleven (A BIG JOB.) Because of her cheery way, her French classes are enjoyed by all. Miss ELEANOR MASTIN University of New Hampshire Latin, French In Miss Mastin we find not only friendliness, but a tremendous school spirit. She shows us that she is behind us when we find her at many of the sports events of both boys and girls. Mr. MARTIN MARTINIAN Boston University Latin, History, French Mr. Martinian is the faculty advisor to the Weston Rhombas Affiliation Committee in the school. Under his leadership a mem¬ ber from Weston High was sent to Rhombas, France, as an ex¬ change student. Mr. WENDELL PHILLIPS Boston University, School of Music Band, Orchestra, Choir, and Chorus When Mr. Phillips came to Weston five years ago, a new en¬ th usiasm for music came with him. We now have in the school a choir and a chorus, in addition to an orchestra and a uni¬ formed band. 1 I I 1 Weston High offers only two FOREIGN LANGUAGES, Latin and French. Since the community is college minded, a considerable number of pupils elect the first two years of Latin. The study of French does not begin until the sopho¬ more year to avoid starting two foreign languages in one year. However, third year classes in both subjects are small and intimate. Mrs. JEAN MUNRO Lowell State College Music Photography and travel consume what little spare time Mrs. Munro has when she isn ' t rushing to her music classes in four different buildings. 9

Mr. HENRY DOCKLER Norwich University Basic Electricity, Physics After graduating from college Mr. Dockler taught school until he entered the army and rose to the rank of colonel. This year he came to Weston to teach in the science fields. One of his many enjoyments is hunting. Mr. RICHARD HAM Bowdoin College Biology, French, General Science Mr. Ham helps the students of the school with their Science Fair projects. He also gives the sophomores that needed help¬ ing hand on the Football Dance. During his spare time he enjoys swimming. eunnccuioft Miss MILDRED MARBLE Fitchburg State Teachers College Science Miss Marble has been at Weston for many years, and we know that our senior high school science courses were more attractive to us as a result of her keen interest in the subject. Mrs. DOROTHY MULROY Wells Science With the coming of Mrs. Mulroy last September, Weston added an enthusiastic teacher of science to the staff. With her eighth grade daughter, Mrs. Mulroy enjoys the theater, ballet, and travel. She also enjoys Weston. Precision and accuracy as well as the power to reason are qualities which the study of PHYSICS encourages. Although new develop¬ ments in nuclear science have influenced this study in high schools, a knowledge of basic facts is still necessary. Here we see three young physicists intent on their experiment involving observation and calculation. Mrs. SIGNE HYNSON Goucher College Librarian Mrs. Hynson is always willing to help us, whether we need research material for special reports, or just want a good book to read. 1 1
