W- 'R 'Hmm . '-'-M.. MRS. OPAL H. CORKERY Principal or three years Mrs. Corkery has been a friend from whom we might seek counsel about our problems and a Wise adviser whose criticisms have been both helpful and constructive. We have been constantly reminded of her desire to promote the best interests of us students by her efforts to combine discipline and sociability in order to establish a well-balanced educational program, by her willingness to recognize the value of our activities, and by her endeavors to make us worthy of our school. Her enthusiastic support of our athletic teams, her sympathetic encouragement of our Cadet Corps, and her genuine cooperation with our clubs and organizations are further evi- dences of her sincere concern for our welfare. Wfith respect for her judgment, understand- ing, and keen sense of justice, we, the Graduates of 1951, extend our warmest thanks and best wishes to Mrs. Corkery, our principal.
