Dorothy E. Sharples

The Class of 1967 dedicates its yearbook to a wonderful teacher who does much for Winthrop High School. She not only works hard as head of the Art Department, but also in bringing to us the enjoyable and cultural Humanities Series.
For twenty years this teacher has been in many projects which vary from advertisement to decorating for the proms. Her name is always associated with neatness, efficiency, and beauty.
We are honored to dedicate this "Echo 1967" as a small symbol of our appreciation to you--

Arthur W. Dalrymple



Twenty-eight years of dedicated service to the Winthrop Public Schools have brought to Arthur W. Dalrymple high position, weighty responsibility and great praise. Merely
to list the associations, positions and degrees he holds would be to honor him. He is one of two school superindentents from Massachusetts elected to serve as Director of the Board governing the New England Association of School Superindentents. He is a member of the Massachusetts Department of Education Committee on Certification of School Superintendents. He is a member of the Official Board and Board of Education of the First Church Methodist of Winthrop where he has served as a Sunday School teacher for 28 years with a perfect attendance record.

Mr. Dalrymple was Special Gifts Chairman of the Polio Drive, and served the Red Cross, the Community Fund, the Bay Shore Boy Scout Council, the Committee to institute North Suffolk Mental Health Clinic, the Rotary Club, the Golf Club, and the Alumni Associations of Tufts, the University of New Hampshire and Gushing Academy.

He is a faithful husband- and father of five children -- Robin, Joy, Carol, Scott and Margaret -- whose basic belief is in what is best for the children of Winthrop. As Director of Adult Education, as Assistant Principal of the Junior High School, as a teacher at the Junior High School and at Winthrop Senior High School for nine years, he found experience the best teacher and objective merit the best test of educational value. He holds 24 hours of courses in graduate education from Harvard and University Extension, a Master's degree from Tufts, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of New Hampshire. He was President of his graduating class at Winthrop Senior High School, and a three-letter athlete in baseball, basketball and football.

The Boston papers, during the six year struggle for the construction of the new Winthrop Senior High School, characterized Superintendent Arthur W. Dalrymple as a fighter for good education. The Vice-President of Tufts University has said of Mr. Dalrymple: "I know he has a fine mind and an excellent professional attitude. Characterwise he is above criticism." Finally, when the School Committee granted the Superintendent of Schools tenure of office in I960 by a unanimous vote, the present chairman of the School Committee, Mrs. Giromini made the motion "... in recognition of outstanding work, for his vision in seeing problems that occur in this school system and giving prompt, practical solutions to them, for his careful choice of personnel, and for his never losing sight of the fact that the schools are run for our children."

The dedication of this yearbook may seem a small honor to a man accustomed to accolades such as those listed above. Yet it is fitting that the first yearbook to be published from
the new Winthrop Senior High School be dedicated to a man whose nearly thirty years of professional public service have supported a climate of excellence in which magnificent buildings, programs and students are able to grow.

Timothy F. Sheehan

These two pages honor a teacher who has been an influential person in Winthrop High School. He has not necessarily been the most outspoken or controversial figure, but he possesses qualities of fidelity, inspiration, and fortitude. Mr. Timothy F. Sheehan merits this distinction in the judgment of the Class of 1965.

During forty years Mr. Sheehan has taught the boys in our school to work creatively and usefully with diverse tools. His kindly demeanor has helped them prepare for rewarding careers. The social programs, which we shall cherish, were fashioned under his direction. The golf team has esteemed his ability as a coach. Never did he refuse a student who sought his help. He manifested his obliging character through subtle means.

In years to come his absence will be noted. Yet his spirit will permeate the academic and athletic life within the confines of the new Winthrop High School. Mindful of your past, we proudly dedicate the 1965 Echo to you, Mr. Timothy F. Sheehan.

Eben T. Colby

The class of 1964 is honored to dedicate the ECHO to Mr. Eben T. Colby. Our acquaintance with him has been brief, but we will never forget his highly effective and enjoyable style of teaching. Knowledge is not the exclusive province of the teacher or the student. It is a treasure to be shared by all. Having Mr. Colby share his knowledge with us has been a stimulating and thought-provoking experience which will remain with us for many years to come.

Harold J. Morse

The devotion of a teacher who gives many years of service to a school can never be fully measured or fully rewarded. Mr. Harold Morse has served Winthrop High School as submaster, mathematics teacher, advisor to the Student Council and the former Activities Committee, and coach of the tennis team. His warm smile and twinkling blue eyes have endeared him to all of us. We, the class of 1962, are proud to dedicate the Echo to Mr. Morse -- an outstanding teacher and a wonderful friend. May he have all possible
happiness in the years to come.

Florence Wilder

When an author dedicates his book to a person, that is his way of honoring and saying thank you to that person. In such a way, we -- the Staff of 1960 -- would like to honor and thank Miss Florence Wilder. For many years, her pride in the yearbook and her patience with its staff have resulted in memorable Echoes. To her we dedicate this volume of the Echo with sincerity and affection.
