As you unfold these pages one by one, may you find therein that which will bring to mind the companions of your youth—those who taught you the meaning and significance of friendship. May you recall again the devoted teachers who exemplified the qualities of leadership. May you again relive those school communal activities which have pointed the way and made easier the rcsj)onsibiliiics of the larger community life. As you gaze into these wells of learning from which you drank in your youth, may you Ik- encouraged to continue to drink deeply of the many opportunities awaiting you. Out of the memories of yesterday may that youthful faith and courage spur you on to new heights, that the future, too. may be conquered. As you peruse the records of your studies of long ago, may you Ik- inspired to make knowledge your guide and wisdom your light. Let us go. old friends, and open the doors of yester-years. tf-anewo dt OuA 2 ay Throucu six classkooms, around the same stretch of hall, our day begins and ends.

Attendjnce Clerk eacUenA They’re the Artisans In a person’s life there is a stage commonly known as the “impressionable age.” Generally this period coincides with the four high school years. Thus, school in general, and high school in particular. has been rightly termed a mold. If this be so, it is only logical that the teachers arc the molders. When a freshman enters West he is a semi-raw product placed in the hands of the artisan for the final rough cast. After four years, the cast, good or bad, has been completed. There now remains only the smoothing process for the outside world to complete. MRS. MELVA LOCKWOOD . . . Counselor, JOHN MORRIS . . . Dean of Student Affairs MRS. JOSEPHA CONTOSKI . . .

Club English tor Fluonrv One of tiie oldest stcdies in the history of man is that of his own language. The ancient Egyptians, the Greeks, and the Romans were noted for their fluency of expression. Nothing is more natural, therefore, than that in the modern American schools a great deal of emphasis should lx: placed upon the study of the national language. Throughout elementary school, fundamentals of language arc securely niched in the pupil's mind; while in high school, a wide variety of studies of particular branches of the subject arc offered. Besides a smattering of Shakespeare and other noted English and American authors, courses arc offered in the fields of journalism, creative writing, drama, and public speaking. Many half-revealed talents are brought out fully in these classes. It is in these practical classes that the seeds arc planted from which will spring future American actors, authors, and orators.

Languages I nlor| r kl In times like these, with half the world clawing at the other half’s throat, a knowledge of languages other than our own English seems, on first thought, a useless talent. This, however, is entirely untrue, for though governments and boundaries may change almost without notice, languages arc far more permanent. The French, although at present subdued by the Nazi machine, still retain their Ixrautiful tongue; anti so it goes throughout all the world. After this war is over, and even now at this moment. a knowledge of the principal languages—Spanish, French, and German—will Ik and is. vital; for how can wc understand these people whom wc must influence to a better mode of living, if wc cannot converse with them in their native speech? A new life of peace anti brotherhtiotl lies ahead—and languages will interpret its ways. Standing: MARTHA TOBIN ! rench; KLEANORA POPPE . . . Germ .in . . . German (lull Silver Triangle; DWIGHT H.

American History . . . Tennis Knowing llomooraoy In years past many a student has complained because of the compulsory study of the history and mechanics of his government. I fowever, those years, as we have said, arc past; and those complaints have gone into the limbo of forgotten things. With the plunging of this country into the Second World War, its sons and daughters have become especially conscious of their birthright of freedom, too frequently taken for granted. They have delved eagerly into the relatively short but epochal history of their land, taking courage in the fact that Americans have fought for freedom five times before—and then the odds were as great if not greater than at present. Young Americans have learned the functions of their government, the meaning of that ponderous and powerful word. Democracy. Even as they learned these things, they vowed that American democracy must not die; that it must be defended, maintained, and developed for the more glorious years. Maps. Books. Magazines, Newspapers... Unfolding a Changing World's Problems Advancing in Figures Mathematics, the science of perfection, the language of inventors and mechanics, business men and architects. We recall our advancement through algebra, geometry, and the higher studies—developing the mind as well as teaching us this ancient and fundamental art: the art of finding what one wants with the knowledge that is at hand. This is the basic science—one upon which tall buildings, electrical knowledge, and swift moving trains depend. We look back anil remember numbers evolved through laborious processes, until the answer, the one correct figure, has taken its place upon the paper. Now we may look forward to bridges, airplanes, and telephones, which will some day result from our study. Without this knowledge our modern age would be no more advanced than the age of the cave man. Knowing the language of figures and perfection, all things may be brought alwut. THOMAS P. GRUWF.LL . . . Solid Geometry . . . Plane Geometry . . . Trigonometry . . . He pcrian; ALBF.RT I).

Nor will the patient efforts on the part of the instructors to unravel the profound mysteries to painfully obtuse students ever Ik forgotten. The men and women of the future whose lives will be spent in the quest of securing health and happiness for others will realize that it was in the classrooms and in the lalxiratorics such as these that their careers began. It was here that the thoughts and ideas, which would later find fruition in successful realities, had their inception. Two Parts Nitrogen, Three Parts Glycerine ... H m, It Doesn't Look Dangerous...

What made plants grow? These questions were handed down through the ages, and explained one by one; but the wonder still remained. Some of the explanation theories were scoffed at and their originators punished severely before they could prove that they were right. As time went on. a great many astronomical, biological, and physical truths were revealed, until today a large part has been diagnosed and recorded for one to learn. Here at West many students have become familiar with such weird and foreign sounding phrases as metabolism, protozoa, and oxidation. The sciences of chemistry, physics, biology, and many others arc plumbed to their depths; their carefully hidden secrets are drawn from dark recesses into the light for all to see, understand; and through this understanding, perhaps some day they may add to the knowledge already compiled. Artists and Cartoonists Play Their Part in National Defense... An Influence Upon the Public Artistic Expressions “If eyes were made for seeing, then beauty is its own excuse for being. —Ralph W. Emerson. Creation of beauty and expression of one's innermost feelings and emotions are two of the purposes of the art classes. We can remember times when lines, the product of hours of labor, were not beauty, nor the expression of that which lay hidden within our minds; but merely dead, lifeless, hieroglyphics scrawled in stiff, unyielding trails. We recall days of real agony when mere clay, or paint, or pen, or pencil point was insufficient to record the indescribable joys and sorrows we felt. But we also fondly recollect a day of sunshine— when a new light of art and beauty flooded through our awakening consciousness. Then the clay became vibrant, the pen leaped across the paper almost of its own accord, or the paint became light and shadow, and someone could say, 1 did that. HAZEL MOORE . . . Art . . .

The vocal and instrumental entertainers of the future will look hack upon their early attempts at combining melodic, rhythmic, and harmonious tones and at fathoming the meanings of a musician's vocabulary. They will recall the bewilderment that accompanied their initial introduction to the mysteries of counterpoint and harmony. In their minds' eyes they will visualize the opening, faltering efforts while attempting a new score—and then the pride and satisfaction when the piece of music had been fully mastered. They will realize that it was this keen sense of accomplishment (first experienced in school) that spurred them on in further quest for dexterity and perfection. Nor will musicians of tomorrow fail to remember the unstinting labors of their instructors who strived to inculcate into them a lasting appreciation and love for music. GEORG I C. KRIEGER . . .

Bookkeeping Wheels of llusiness The C nimercial Wheels of the most business-minded nation in the world depend upon the figuring and correspondence of bookkeepers and stenographers. To many, the positions in the clerical office arc merely the stepping stones to higher appointments, just as the high school jobs in office practice were only the beginning of bigger jobs to come. Happy memories of improvement mark our high school commercial studies: the increased number of words we could typewrite or take in shorthand every minute, the growing ease and familiarity which we experienced around cn office, the final balancing of a difficult budget. All these remembrances point the way to future improvements. We may happily look forward to such improvements. Despite changes in what is being produced, despite alterations in the manner of their production. the office force is always a necessity. DOROTHY STYF.R . . . Chxhing; MRS. MARY POTTER . . . Food Preparing for Homos Cooking, sewing, and the economics of a home— these are the heritage of womankind. They arc not menial, dull, or burdensome tasks; for these arc the small duties that help to form and build the most important part of American life—the family. Marriage will always remain the most worthy career of the majority of women. The preparation for this great institution must be thorough. During this preparation everything was not as simple for students as it was for Mother. The food was not always edible; the clothes we made, not perfectly styled. What girls have gained from the courses is a familiarity with their future duties and the beginnings of that certain knack around the kitchen and the sewing room—that knack which men wonder at and admire. Now they may look forward, satisfied that they arc capable of becoming the home founders of their generation. Every Woman’s Duty... These Girls Arc Learning the Arts of Home Life This Machine Age The fellows who work wilh skilled hands arc the men of the moment today. As never before, we recognize how dependent we arc upon the men who keep our cars running smoothly, the fellow who shapes the tools to make that car. the man who rolls out the steel and plans the construction of our modern living devices. High school shop education must stimulate not only the desire for this type of work, hut must also lay the foundation and develop the knowledge and skills necessary. We well remember our first frantic endeavors to produce from machines and tools reproductions of expert articles. We need only re-examine the results of those efforts to note improvements—improvements which will mean perfection in our particular line of work in future days. Machines of this Machine Age depend upon skilled hands for manipulation. Training in the schools produces that skill. Standing: RAY SOUTHWORTH . . . Mechanical Drawing . . . Drafting . . .

A physically weak population, which undermines the vitality of an entire nation and saps its strength, is a detriment as deadly as a nest of fifth columnists. A principal requisite to good health is exercise. Plenty of exercise is necessary to build up our bodies in order to better our ability to resist disease. Included in our high school training has been a physical education program. This—along with football, basketball, track, boxing, hockey, and wrestling—has helped us to toughen our muscles and improve our endurance. America’s youth has been called soft. Hut in the years to come America’s twentieth century youth won’t be remembered for its softness, but rather for its toughness in repelling the forces of wrong. LOUIS ZAVODSKY . . .

Tumbling We Won't Forget the Hours We Spent Trying to Keep Our Figures Trim C irls’ 4 vni Masses The housewives of tomorrow will look back upon blissful hours spent in the rigorous activities of their high school gym classes. They will recall the many hours devoted to setting up exercises in order to secure and maintain those eagerly desired girlish figures. There will Ik visualized in their minds' eyes the early attempts at mastering the puzzling problems of scoring a shot in basketball, or overcoming the profound mysteries of the games of soccer and volleyball. Nor will they overlook the valuable instruction in dancing, a pre-requisite to the success of a socialite. The matrons of future years will thankfully remember the coaching in athletics, for to Ik a successful wife requires the ability to participate with the other half in a good share of his activities. Hence the need for such proclivities and the necessities for such classes. KATHRYN CAREY . . . Physical Education . . . G.A.A.; MRS. FRANCES ABRAMSON . . .

Romaine Woodruff, Barbara Glenny, Bill Mickelson •January Class Loaders It was only 12 years ago that these proud young seniors trotted of! to their first day of school, not so confident and self-assured. Only 12 years—what a lot has happened since then! Wars, depressions, dance crazes, chain letters, cheeseburgers, sun spots — practically everything imaginable. These seniors have grown up in a topsy-turvy world, filled with Brooklyn Dodgers in the summer and Golden Gophers in the fall. Everything has been very gay and light, almost right up to their graduation—and then came the news that their country had plunged into war. Men were again summoned to the colors. Newspapers carried stories of bombings and fatalities. Full well these seniors knew that before the gigantic struggle of nations is over, they too will find within their group those who have made the supreme sacrifice—death for the survival of American principles. As they step forth from high school, their country and the whole world has been pushed into a horrible all-enveloping war. It won’t l c an easy war, and it’s going to last a long time; but during it, and then after it. when the real job of cleaning up and starting over begins, it will Ik these same seniors who will Ik at the wheel. It will Ik up to them to pull the old world back on her feet again. They are just the ones who can do it.

Those who acquire the knowledge set before them by instructors have made the most of their opportunity of public education, an education that enables everyone to enjoy life to the utmost. Students who have applied themselves to the work of learning, ami have accomplished this learning for the benefit of themselves anti their constituents, arc truly students to lx honored. Surveys have shown the importance of learning well the high school subjects by proving that good report card marks arc usually a preface to success in later life. The scholastic honor roll consists of graduates in the highest ten per cent of their class. At the very top arc Valedictorian Hetty Nelson and Salutatorian Ixona Mac Erickson. Marks of A in every subject at all times indicate that Hetty Nelson received the utmost from her three years at West. Only once did Leona Erickson drop below an A rating. Leadership exists in few people, and it must lx developed by the schools for the benefit of all. It is an easy task to choose good leaders, for they stand out well. These arc the students we look to for guidance in school affairs. These arc the people we notice in the limelight, at club meetings, and on the stage. And so. these arc the classmates that we elect to lead and represent us. fins Honor Holl Betty Nelson Leona Erickson John Dc Moss Richard Hoffman Roland Minda Manes Prost Viola Bergquist Elizabeth Preus Adair Phelps William Greig Bob Wohl Jean Northrop Jay Chauss Jean McKirnan Lester Sokol William Shore May Annexton Eva Marie Giere Ruth Irons Thomas Askew Betty Ann Mich Barbara Swanstrom Billie Cohen Jean Crisicr Anne Osborne Dorothy Lundgren Ernest Plante James Clark Patricia Nessler Gordon Ellcby Donald Lyle Margaret Youngdahl Top Soliolnrs of Juno f loss Leona Erickson Salutatorian Betty Nelson Valedictorian fjuste, GIqAA RICHARD ACKER 3H . .

Denton White Teeter's Lu« ky Seventh Year Most brilliant reminder of the 1941 -’42 Cowboy sports calendar was a fighting gridiron squad that reached glorious heights to cap off (axich Tuck Teeter’s seventh and greatest year at West. This Cowboy eleven not only endeared itself to West’s alumni, teachers, and student body, hut also carved a niche for itself at the very top of the pedestal of Green and While fame. . . . Statement by the Daily Times sports columnist, Al Wold, after that all important Twin City victory over St. Paul Central was a fitting tribute to a great team: “Minneapolis fans were joyous. The tide had turned. For here after several lean years was a football team representing Minneapolis anti playing for all it was worth. Win or lose, this West High team could not be criticized. ... No West fan who saw that game will ever forget how well the Cowlwys won that Twin City championship. Thai llislori al ovombcr Day November 11, 1941, will lx- remembered as the 23rd anniversary of the signing of the first World War Armistice; as one of the most beautiful November days in recent years; and, most important, as the day that a West gridiron team won its first Twin City championship. . . . That game, bringing together two of the best coached teams in Minnesota prep history. West and St. Paul Central, will probably never Ik forgotten by any of the 32 players who saw action; nor by the more than 10.000 fans who jammed Lexington Park to see the much-heralded clash. . . . No, they won’t forget that winning touchdown pass from Jim Meyer to Bob Paine, nor that goal line stand by the outweighed Cowboys, nor those deceptive Central triple reverses. And those Cowboys played like the champions that they were. They're Year’s Surprise Team Tiie 1941 Cowboy Football Team was the year’s most surprising aggregation in the city league. Picked lor a second division spot. West astounded fans and spectators by trouncing (Central in their first game, 31-6. A loss to Edison, 7-13, and four successive victories brought the season to the crucial city tilt. Again the Cowboys surprised, whipping Washburn 21-0 to tie with Vocational for the city title. The coaches’ choice for the Twin City game was West, however. West proved the logical choice, for it beat St. Paul Central for Twin City honors, 13-7. 1— Rooters’ Section 2— Happy Victor i—Touchdown.

A coin tons kept the Western bucket-brigadiers from city playoffs, but the Cowboys accomplished three aims: they upset the dope bucket twice, after newspapers told them they couldn’t win any contests; they improved over last year, under new Coach Adc Nelson: and the boys played exciting ball, three losses coming from last-second baskets.

Following Co-Captain Ben Phillips, who has never been beaten in three years ot local dual competition, the Cowboys also were unscathed in the two-team meets. Third places by Phillips anil John Hayes, plus splendid showing of relay and medley groups, gave West the No. 3 spot in the state tournament.

In fact, the Cowboys themselves were at the top of the league in the previous season. Hard-hitting outfielders were Bill Kinney, A1 Huggins. Don Schcuncmann, Dick Yearneau, Harlan Peterson, and Leonard Samuel-son. Mound duties were taken by Walter Cary, Lyle Lundeen, Jack Heliendrung. Tom Askew, and Harold Martin.

This year with only one ace raccjuctcer, Boyum. returning to the Green and White, the title road was a little rockier.

Leading players were Marshall Silberman. Angus Grant. Warren Beson. Phil Thomas, and Tom Bainbridge. Despite delayed practice, financial, and coaching problems, Captain Denton White kept a group of trackmen on the cinders.

June f lass l ropli«k y by Roland Minda One gloomy day, as 1 was silting by the take of the Isles, I saw a curious earthen jar floating toward shore. Washed upon the sand, I curiously opened it. A prodigious, gargantuan genic sprang forth and threatened to take my life. “No! No! I screamed, “spare this poor soul’ “Very well, the genic said, “you shall have two choices: cither die or listen to the West High Class Prophecy of June, 1942. My choice was instantaneous. “I have no choice; take my life; spare me this dire torture. For that insolent remark you shall undergo both the prophecy and death. I swooned—my mind became a hall of fire—but his words were indelible ink on the tablets of my mind. Fortunately I had my ink eraser along and was able to erase the ink and bring this prognostication to you. Merc arc his exact words (I mean the genie’s): • • • While gadding about town on a Saturday morn, I discovered a slight trace of our Senior Class: On Eighth and Nicollet I find Margaret Staber, dietitian at Fanny's Pure Food Shop; and just a few blocks down the street, Ben Phillips is instructing swimming classes at the Y W C A. Paddy Hess is still selling lingerie in Dayton’s basement. Size 523 You mean bigger than this? On the same floor. Julie Barnum is caught trying to sneak her lunch out—a carry-over from the old school habit. Colin Samuclson, who models for the Hickok Belt and Suspender Co., has close competition with Denton White and his Osh-kosh-bi-gosh overalls. Margaret Youngdahl has the grand opening of her “Classy Chassy Modeling School, and next door Bill Shore operates his “Dydee Diaper Service. rival of the “Baby Diaper Service. Moving on down Nicollet, I hear Roy Swanson, the accordion player at Curly’s. Hap Fuge, the new hostess at Shieks , spends her time off at Bill Witt’s Groceteria. I sec Janice Mcssick walking her dog around the Gateway searching for little signs of Christmas. Astounded I come across Jim Colburn actually buying his first ticket into a movie house. And why not? Jane Hultkrans is there in the premier performance of I Love a Sweater Girl.

Angus Grant •I II III II-ISS l rO|� ll(M V (('muimi' il from page lilt Being an alumnus of West, before I went into the bottling business, I had a touch of nostalgia and returned to my native West High haunts. I noticed Betty Wentworth had taken over Adelaide’s place at the Cowboy Drug Store. The current gossip centered around John Geary, who was handing out cigars to announce his engagement. The radio was on full blast. Rodney Sanders, making his debut on a national hookup, sang “Yucatan Gum So Fresh and Dandy.” Unexpectedly, the dial slipped to get the last words of Hoyt Mackenstadt’s foghorn blast sing “B.O. Marilyn MaClaran is arguing with Mr. Bradley against the rationing of Sugar. Margaret Lajoic concentrates on the second page of the first primer. Warren Beson drives by in a band-wagon, which announces the Saturday Night Wrestling review at the auditorium. Audrey Naas, the first lady of hockey, is managing the Minneapolis Millers. Hugh Morris, now “28 or over, is doorman at the Friendship Club. Suddenly the genie stopped sjxraking. A shudder ran through him. “I can’t stand it, he screamed! “To be a member of this class is a worse fate than death. You shall live. He groaned, shook convulsively, and disappeared into the bottle. I picked up my opium pipe and went home. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For assistance in compiling this 1942 pictorial record of West, the stall thanks the faculty and the student body for their coo) eration.
