GIA T G0 EA D COME ANY teachers have come and gone in the long history of our high school, but those of our own time are foremost in our memories. After many years of service, Mr. Miles R. Jacobs, Latin teacher, and Mr. Carl Tibbitts, history teach- er, retired, as did Miss Cleo Richardson-co-ordr nator of pupil-personnel services, and Miss Florence Kniskern-chairman of the foreign language depart- ment. All but Miss Richardson twho has continued to do guidance in the Mid-Westj are still living in White Plains. Miss Kniskern and Mr. Jacobs are now being of help in a tutorial capacity. lncluded among the faculty members who left are Mrs. Rona Harris Cohen and Dr. Carolyn Sech- rest Hewson, both of whom married and moved from the city. Miss Marie Grant married our Mr. John Zilembo and is now teaching in Port Chester. Also leaving were Miss Margaret Rogers-guidance counselor, Mr. C. Sumner Allen-science teacher, Miss Faith Guden-art teacher and popular art adviser to the Oracle, and Mrs. Marjorie Lisle- secretary. All have moved to other states. Dr. Irma Rosenstein, substitute in German lor last yearls spring semester, did not return. Additions came to the faculty in many depart- ments. ln guidance, Dr. Patrick Martin became co- ordinator ol pupil-personnel services, and Miss Carol Byerly and Mrs. Lila McGovern arrived to help students with the problems of men land mice?D. ln the foreign language field, Mr. Donald Wladaver joined the faculty as chairman of his department, which also gained Mr. Robert W'oemp- ner, for Spanish, Mrs. Lillian Abbott twhom we had known previously as a substitutej, for Latin, and Mr. Robert Stanley, for German.

EVER-ENDING D TIES 0F ERVICE PERSGNNEL HELP ulVIICE BE ME ! ECAKSE of the efficient and loyal assistance of our service personnel, our school has been made Ha home away from homei, for students. ln charge of maintaining the cafeteria and of preparing meals was Mrs. Polly Brown, who has completed her thirtieth year of association with the city's schools. Mrs. Brown had a staff of four- teen this year, among whom was Mrs. Harriet Ham- ilton, whose skill as a pastry cook provided non- dieting students with delicious chunks of chocolate cake and huge wedges of hot apple pie. ln the cook- ing department were Mrs. Dorothy Ellison and Mrs. Esther Gianzero, who prepared mounds of mashed potatoes and salads. Counter girls included Mrs. Vera Orlando, Mrs. Aase Hasler, Mrs. Mina Small, and Mrs. James Cowan. All of the cafeteria staff helped make the lunch hour and the cafeteria a very pleasant place, indeed. L r- 1- 9 illrs. Brown, flzc director of the cafeteria, and fllr. Durso, of the custodial staff, de- bate recipes for favorite foods for amicen in our school, as zrcll as for the giants. rlliglzi it be a cheese soufle and a roasted ox frorzsl beef, 111680 daysj that they hare in mind, and cooks will S0011 have in pan? Mr. Bruce Franco, the head custodian, looks upon his duties as an opportunity to make our high school comfortable for all who use the huild- ing, and to keep the grounds attractive. Mr. Leon- ard Durso and Mr. Angelo Riviezzo, who were assistants to Mr. Franco at different times of this year, helped with the crews in charge of house- keeping, minor repairs, and inspections for safety. Among the others of Mr. l7ranco's staff were Mr. Angelo De Rosa, boiler-room attendant, Mrs. Grace Anderson, custodian of teachers? rooms and girls' locker rooms, Mr. Barney Doyle, general handy- man, and Mr. Bruce Valenti, genius at making new versions of lost locker keys in short time. Did any of them set mouse-traps? We wonder! 24
