o H CD u J I Under the direction of Mr. Wil- liam Davis, the Social Studies Department guided us from the Stone Age to Watergate. Courses ranged from European History to Chinese Civilization to Econom- ics. Especially bright will be our memories of U.S. History, taught by Mr. Thomas Brown and Miss Priscilla Congdon during junior year. Senior year was highlight- ed with the offering of a new Gov- ernment and Politics class, as well as having the opportunity to take traditional favorites such as Psychology and Sociology.

This year the Concert Band and Orchestra were led by Mr. Qiurelo; the Double Quartet, the Glee Club, and the Chorale by Mrs. Maija Gray, and the Fine Arts and Music Program were taught by Miss Frances Trisorio.
