Imccln High MtniwUttatiow 1963-64 MELVIN J. BOWEN Principal Mr. Bowen’s ability as an administrator is evidenced by the growth of Lincoln under his leadership, and the position that it now holds among the Des Moines Schools. He has worked hard and now he can see what he has accomplished. Lincoln students are proud of their school. Mr. Bowen has done much to make it a school of which to be proud. ROBERT WILSON Acting Vice Principal Mr. Wilson has taken over the position of vice-principal left vacant by Mr. Dickson’s death. He is doing an excellent job in his new office, as well as continuing with all his duties as senior counselor. IRIS ANDERSON Advisor Miss Anderson is the kind of person who is always busy, and yet seems tireless. When¬ ever her aid is called for, she gives it freely and earnestly. Her help has done much to make a success of the many activities at Lincoln. KATHLEEN SHIFFER Registrar Seniors recognize Mrs. Shiffer as the woman who takes their requests for tran¬ scripts. Taking care of the many requests is a staggering job, yet Mrs. Shiffer also finds time to keep a record of all school money. — 6 —
