DUME THJADMII TRATHI Mrs. Carr, the dietician, is a very important person in DeVeaux's oper- ation. She not only fills tour stomach, but takes care of the arduous task of hiring employees and directing them in keeping the buildings clean. lt has been said that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, Mrs, Carr has found many hearts this way. Mrs. May, the nurse, is another person whom the boys could not do with- out. Nobody has ever heard Mrs. May refuse anyone 's needs. She is always willing to harbor some poor germ possessor in her infirmary for a few nights. Everyone in DeVeaux knows Dutch, the Superintendent of Grounds and the omniscient fixer of anything on the campus. From foundations to roof, Dutch knows how to fix it. Few realize the tremendous part Dutch plays in keeping the old building and grounds in running order. Thus when any- one needs anything fixed, Dutch can always be depended on to do the job with a little humor, opinion, and tobacco juice added. BU INESS STAFF The Business Staff, which constitutes one of the indispensable pillars supporting the functioning of DeVeaux, deserves commendable recognition in efforts behind the scenes. The Business Manager, Mr. R. E. Fisher, should be remembered for his diligence and for the many times he burned the midnight oil. Mrs. Moje, the Headmaster's secretary is efficient and accommodating. Mrs. Kryder and Mrs. Stables, the two remaining secretaries and assets to our mainten- ance, are ever willing to satisfy our needs either in the Book Store or with individual requisits. We will all remember Mrs. Stables for her humorous and affable disposition. lt should be expresed that the DeVeaux student body appreciates their accomplishments and dependability.

THE E IOR CLASS ln the fall of 1946 the first members of the pre- sent Senior Class were enrolled. From an obscure beginning we quickly took the situation in hand until it wasn't long before we had made a firm impression upon the school as to our capacity to uphold the tradition of the school, As we grew up it was quickly noted that each of us was distinctly an individualist. Each seemed to have his own special opinion and perhaps our main fault was our strong adherence to our be- liefs. Together we excelled mostly scholastically, although we made ourselves felt in other fields, both athletic and social. During our stay we witnessed the gradual de- preciation and finally the extinction of the mili- tary systemg so our hopes for officerships were ended. With the ending ofthe military, an honor system, guided by an active Student Council, arose. We helped to get this new student government started on the right track with that difficult task of or- ganizing a new system. Thus with the closing of our high school life, we leave with the fruits and happineszses of some of the best years of our lives.
