Rogor Borry, Principal Principal Graduates of 1950: On the evening of Commencement more than 600 of you will receive diplomas from Davenport High School. On that occasion you will experience mingled emotions of regret, happiness, bewilderment, and pleasant anticipa- tion. This is normal and as it should be. Wc hope, however, that as time goes by and as you become accustomed to your status as graduates'' and as you become better able to evaluate your educational experiences that your high school will assume added significance for you. We hope that you will feel that the information you have acquired hero, the skills, habits and attitudes you have developed and the many oppor- tunities you have had are serving you well and will continue to serve you. We hope that your loyalty as a student will develop into a mature adult loyalty and a sustained lifelong interest in Davenport High School. The theme of this book is dreams. We hope that your dreams will come true — if they involve high ideals, worthy objectives, and the development of your capacities to the fullest. Sincerely, Tho high school office staff. Seated are Mrs. Phyllis Wahlig. Mrs. Birdine Tucker. Standing is Mrs. Norma Post. 9
