The administrative staff of D.G.H.S. is re- sponsible for much of the competent aid we received in the many phases of our journey Their expert counseling has guided us along the trails of right thinking and conduct so that we are able to reach our destination with con- fidence of success. Mr. DeWolf, our retiring superintendent of schools, will be remembered for his understand ing and congeniality. Always willing to help when he could, he was continually striving for the betterment of our school program, until today we have a well recognized school. We are indeed sorry to see him leave his duties as superintendent, and wish him much happiness in the years to come Mr. Johnson, our principal, Mrs. Andersen, assistant principal and dean of girls together with Mr. Guthrie, dean of boys, assume the responsibility of planning the program and co ordinating all the activities of the school Always in the background but keenly inte rested in all school activities, is our Board of Education, which, with the superintendent, establishes and maintains the general school policies. This board is composed of: Mr H A Erffmeyer, Pres , Mr. W. D. Herrick, Secy., Mrs. Phillips Goodell; Mr J. M. Lewis, and Mr E. T. Groat WAYNE GUTHRIE, M S. Dean of Boys ...jr CLARENCE W.

GEORGE E. DEWOLF, B.A , M.A. Superintendent of Schools Promoters Students of D.G.H.S. It has been a real pleasure to me to have been associated with Downers Grove Community High School for the past eighteen years. Stu- dents, faculty, and parents have been exceed- ingly friendly and cooperative. I believe one cannot find greater school loyaltv anywhere than you students have for your High School. This loyalty is shown in many wavs: by your interest and progress in the school s academic and vocational program, by your friendship to schoolmates and teachers; by your participation in and ardent support of the school s superior musical groups, excellent dramatic performances, fine athletic teams, proficient student council, active and useful school organizations, and out- standing school publications; and by your pride in the maintenance of good school citizenship. Many, many times have I had Alumni tell me of the pleasure they derive in occasionally getting out their Cauldrons and through its pictures of classmates and faculty and its record of school events relive for a few moments their high school days days of importance and happiness. Among my prized possessions is a set of eighteen consecutive Cauldrons. I know that in the future I shall greatly enjoy reading and re-reading them even as I have in the past. D G.H S. has my sincere best wishes for years and years to come Keep up the Trojan Spirit and win new glory for Downers High. George H. DeWolf. BOARD OF EDUCATION Mrs. Goodell, Mr Lewis, Mr. Erffmeyer, Mr DeWolf, Mr. Groat, Mr. Herrick. 10
