KILLING MR. HERBERT SPURWAY
”

“
SPECIAL QYitli (Pride . . . We dedicate The Tiger of 1953 to Mr. Herbert Spurway, our Vice Principal. We inscribe our dedication to him for a special reason. He came to Dover High School when we came, and in the short span of four years since 1949, as we have advanced, Mr. Spurway has advanced with us, lending a helping hand to every act and every scene of the performance which we have written. We remember well the thought-provoking talks he often gave us before starting his algebra or English classes, or the stories from his own experience, which he told to illustrate the classwork. We came away each day realizing that there was something special about his classes, a special touch of color that is unique with Mr. Spurway. And now in our Senior year, he has advanced with us to become our Vice Principal. He is still the prompter off-stage, still helping, still standing by in the wings, still rooting for us to do our very best. To the Class of '53, he is more than a Faculty member. He is a good friend, and we owe him much. Perhaps this dedication can express to him some of our very deepest regard and thanks. To Mr. Spurway, then, as we re-enact our story, we gladly give Special Billing. 12 Mr. Spurway discusses School Seal with student representative.

 The Theater is one of the most popular means of expression. Upon the stage are played drama and comedy, accomplishment and defeat, the successes of heroes, and the foiling of villains. The Class of 53 has such a story to tell, the story of our show at Dover High School over its four year run. They say that a theatrical producer is known by the company he keeps. This is very true. Our producer is DHS and we are the company. Our school has been known by what we have made it. In return, our school has also made its mark on us. We are about to take a part in a swiftly-moving drama played on the world stage. Many of us will occupy the spotlight and must miss no lines. DHS has sought to prepare us for that. However, before beginning this new venture, pause with us a moment while we relive the past four years and recall its high moments. —— — 14
