CHOOSING SHOES If a man's fortune does not lit him, it is like the shoe in the story; if too large it trips him up, if too small it pinches him. As the class ol 1950 finishes the last year of its high school life, it presents this, the 1950 Cauldron, as a record of the achievements of DGHS students during the past year. As freshmen we felt helpless in our oversize shoes, but each succeeding year we have grown a little more. Now as we receive our diplomas, most of us find that our shoes fit us well, yet, to some of us they are a little tight, for even now we are ready to step into another larger pair. During our tenure at DGHS. a wide variety of shoes have been put at our disposal. Many of the fellows and girls have found a fine fit in the heavy protective athletic shoes, while others preferred the colorful shoes of the stage, the versatile shoes of the pen, or the slippers of song and dance. A few of us have found the Roman sandals or Spanish huaraches well suited to our taste. Last but not least, all of us have worn the narrow businesslike shoes of schol- ars, although many of us have felt their pinch at times. As we, the class of 50'', leave DGHS we are gratified to see that the class of 51” is ready to fill our shoes and carry on where we left off PERSPECTIVE ON LEARNING
