le'- DEIJIUHTIUH ln recognition of the tireless efforts of our instructors to better our intellectual position in life, we, the class of 1954, dedicate The Hour Glass to the faculty of Wilmington High School. When we stray from the fold, they are always there with welcome admonition. When we are proficient in our work, they extol us with well-earned retribution. We dedicate The Hour Glass to those who have dedicated their lives for our betterment. 3
