OUR SCHOOL Mrs. Burke, Mrs. Jacques, Mrs. Foote, and Mrs. Riley faithfully prepare the food for the school. Mrs. Riley and her assistants, Mrs. Foote, Mrs. Burke, and Mrs. Jacques, work in the cafeteria kitchen to give the school ample and delicious lunches every day of the school year. The Seniors’ successful football con¬ cessions are helped immensely through the use of the kitchen facilities. Mrs. Nelson, Mr. Smith, Mr. Teittinen, and Mr. Marsden eat lunch in the “cage.” Mr. Cronan is our driver education instructor. He does an excellent job of explaining driving. The clutch in the driver education car may wear out many times a year, but Mr. Cronan’s patience seems everlasting. His dis¬ cussions in class about responsibilities involved in driving are not soon forgotten. Mr. Cronan also teaches Modern Problems and coaches our successful Golf team. Mr. Clarke, Mr. MacLeod, Mr. Cain, and Mr. Merrill, the janitors of Weston High, are constantly ready to help with all student problems, from jammed lockers to dance decora¬ tions. They work incessantly for the improved appearance and well-being of the school. 11

As the director of the extensive musical program in the high school, junior high, and elementary schools, Mr. Corley is always on the move. He spends many of his evenings playing the trombone in the Carousel Theater in Farmingham. His competence as a musician was demonstrated when he was asked to audition pupils for the regional orchestra. COMBINE TO ENRICH Mr. Robert O. Corley, Director of Music, encourages perfection in musical performance. A woman of many talents, Miss Alice Olliff conducts in¬ formative art classes, and is a great aid to prom and gradua¬ tion decoration committees. Her Art Service Club is constantly engaged in publicity projects. The Smoke Signal, Yearbook, and individual students all benefit from her imaginative photography. “There is always room for improvement.” This statement describes the purpose of Weston’s remedial reading course. Each student is able to watch his improvement in reading through a series of tests. Miss Gertrude Callahan aids pupils in spelling, along with increasing their reading speed and comprehension. Giving physical guidance and instruction to the entire male assemblage at Weston High, often results in a tedious chore, but Mr. Harris surmounts the task. Energetic and devoted, Coach Flarris has the double responsibility of conducting gym classes and heading the varsity football team during fall term. Miss Butera more than does her job as the girls’ physical education instructor. By understanding and willingness to help, she has earned the deep appreciation and respect of all the girls. Her sense of humor makes gym classes en¬ tertaining, and we will long remember her for such witty slogans as “D or D,” and the crazy songs she teaches on the team bus. 10

Graduation 1959 t Since we were juniors, we knew many members of the class of 1959 personally, in¬ stead of feeling lost in their “supreme” midst. Now that last year’s graduates are on the “road of life,” if you will, we still remember them for their Senior Variety Show, their “serious” April Fool’s Day, and their excellent participation in “You Can’t Take It With You.” ALUMNI TAKE MANY ROADS TO CREATIVITY Helen Angelo.Bryn Mawr Arsine Avakian.M.I.T.
