Anne Hey and John Wynn
Faculty Advisors to the Class of 1955

In our minds the activities of our Senior Class will be invariably associated with Miss Anne Hey and Mr. John Wynn, who as our Class Advisors during the past three years have worked with us closely and untiringly.

Scenes such as these will stand out in our memories: Mr. Wynn's persevering building of the fireplace for our Junior Prom; his agitated search for a Harvest Time Wagon; Miss Hey carrying her hard-to-find raccoon coats backstage during "Good News"; and with her sparkling wit, making valuable suggestions when our ideas were lacking.

With deepest affection and sincere appreciation, we dedicate to them the Echo of 1955.

Rachel A. Johnson

Miss Johnson:
We the class of 1953 are proud and happy to dedicate this year's publication of the Echo to Miss Rachel A. Johnson in order to express our sincere admiration and our appreciation for all the work she has done for us. As our Senior Class Advisor, Miss Johnson has spent many hours of her own time working on our Senior Class Social, candy drive, Tiny Tim sale, and the Little Sir Echo. Her wonderful sense of humor and warm smile have made her doubly
popular with both the students and the teachers. We think you will all agree that Miss Johnson is truly worthy of this dedication.

Jessie M. Porter

We, the class of 1951, proudly dedicate our yearbook to Miss Jessie M. Porter, our Guidance Director. Throughout our school life we have felt Miss Porter's influence, but especially in our senior high career as we have been guided in selecting our subjects, in taking aptitude and interest tests, in Career Day, in choosing colleges, and in selecting the best
career. Little does she know how greatly we appreciate her efforts and her interest in our
welfare. Therefore, with this Echo we pay sincere tribute to Miss Porter.

Timothy F. Sheehan

To Mr. Sheehan
We of the class of 1950 are indeed honored to dedicate this issue of the Echo to you on your silver anniversary of teaching here at Winthrop High School. Throughout our high school days we have been aware of the friendly guidance and unselfish assistance that you have afforded us, often in ways which we didn't realize at the time. You have helped immeasurably in making our socials and dramatic productions possible. Your excellent coaching has been reflected by the success of our golf teams. With the sincere hope that the future students of Winthrop High will continue to benefit by your guidance for many years to come, we express our deepest gratitude.
