Business and Health Leaving the administration offices of the entire school system, the little guide leads the way across the campus and up the main building’s wide stone steps. From the busy office on the first floor all the activities of the high school are directed. Taking care of the routine office work are Miss Hertha Hauptmann and Miss Viola Volkens, who in her extra duties as attendance clerk, often makes that perplexing and sometimes embarrass- ing inquiry, “Where were you yesterday?” Prin- cipal A. I. Naumann’s secretary, Mrs. Norma Post, is also registrar. Fully accredited, and maintaining a Class A rat- ing, Davenport High School has a student enroll- ment of more than 2100, 326 of whom pay tuition. In one semester Dr. Carl H. Mat- they, the city schools doctor, gave 2060 high school students physical examinations, and Miss Wilna Nash, D.H.S.’s first full time nurse, treated 978 patients for accident or illness, transferred 709 into the first aid rooms, and dismissed 943 from school. The numbers for the second semester were much higher, due to the flu epidemic in the spring. f ll t Above: Mr». Principal A.
