They receive little credit for their work. but as we all know, they do a line job. Western owes this group a great deal for their efficient handling of the school publications. PUBLICATIONS. INC. All out seems to have become a common expres- sion ol late. Among other things. it applies to the way the members ol the Round- Up Staff have gone all out to produce the Bea- con this year. Working on a yearbook while still turn- ing out a paper is really doubling in brass.

Bill Foley and Marshall Mosher. Best remembered for the grid- iron exploits that gained them All-City recognition. both these graduating Cow- boys excelled in other sports. Moe was a diver on our championship swim- ming team, swung a wicked cross-step on the basketball court. and loved to paste 'em at the plate. Bill was cut from the same block. He was our number one bas- ketball center and stretched a long way out from first to snag a shortstop's heave. We hate to say anything but so long and good luck. fellas. The only honors to come to Western this year in the field of forensics or oratory were won by Olga Naumoff and Ted Montgomery. Olga. our Senior Secretary, came out on top of the girls' di- vision of the Get Out the Vote contest when the finals were held at Northern High School on November 2nd. Ted came in a strong third in the boys' division. Western was the only high school in the city to receive more than one trophy. -.us . .X Q? x,.,i,qN..N Nm Nw , f BV' x 2 ' eg L E 5 , ,,'-. 5 .Ei i V V-fin t t 6,39 B f X Q. ,,:--, JX ::.
