Mx. and Mild QW - - The campus of our school provides an ideal back- ground for these typical teenagers—Mr. and Miss GW of 1948. No better students than Bobby Jones and Jo Price could have been chosen by popularity vote for such an honor and be so worthy of it. The students are proud to have these two represent the school as the average Senior couple, popular, versatile, and friendly.

Miss Lucille Wal ton OUR BOOK TO A DEAR FRIEND The seniors of 1948 feel honored to dedicate the Cavalier to Miss Lucille Walton of the Science Department of George Washington High School. Her unsung deeds and friendly cooperation have won her admiration and loyalty from both students and faculty. An outstanding instructor in science at GW, she has recently achieved national importance in the field of research. As a result of her theory concerning a possible explanation of what causes the orderly organization of cells into patterns and designs presented to the American Association for the Advance- ment of Science, she was elected a member of the Botanical Society of America. Being an art instructor and designer of the school riifg are only two of her contributions to the school. Miss Walton has responded eagerly to any activity or program when called upon; she is tireless in her efforts to do what she can when presented with problems of the students. And so to one who is our teacher, our helper, and our friend, we sincerely say, Thanks, and best of luck—always.”
