And we Seniors of '47 will remember much more, foo. Above all, we'll remember and miss Wesfern and all fhe fhings she sfands for. Wesfern fo us isn'f iusf a large, red brick building info whose corridors we passed as freshmen and from whose doors we now leave as alumni: no, if is more fhan fhis. Wesfern High is a massive composife of fhings fangible and infangible, realifies and ideals. lf's seeing fhe frees in fhe park begin fo furn green in April, wafching fhem deepen info gold in Ocfober, and glimpsing fhem shimmering icily in December. lf's wondering how we could possibly cram all fhose fhings which we were supposed fo have learned, buf didn'f, info our heads on fhe nighf before exams and frying fo undersfand iusf why c21a2+b2 when we had Spring Fever. Perhaps, if is fhe familiar carvings on fhe desks we saw each day, fhe bell ending our lasf class, fhe whiff of chlorine from fhe pool, fhe brighf colored fickefs in our season pass, record periods fhaf seemed so much beffer when ambling fhrough fhe halls, and lengfh of fhe sfairs when fhe lunch bell rang, and fheir shorfness when we were wifh someone we liked. lf's falking in hoarse whispers from cheering af fhe big game, or sipping a coke before Senior commiffee meefings, or chasing each ofher up and down hills on Oufing Day, or, maybe, laughing af our own sedafeness in cap and gown. This is whaf we're leaving! If you fook her building away, Wesfern's spirif would sfill be fhere-and fhaf's whaf really counfs. We'll miss you, Wesfern, for where else can we find fhe friendship and sporfsmanship fhaf we found here! May you always serve and encourage fhose who come affer us as you have done us. Sadness af parfing wifh fhe maker of our mosf pleasanf memories fills us as fhe Seniors of I947 fake fhis lasf opporfunify fo say: goodbye, Wesfern. Friends of my youfh, a lasf Adieu! Haply some day we meef again. -The Fasidah Empty Saddles in the Qld Corral 05 Y X19 , Q4- E, wif X Q' x M W m um NK ' . 45 Q d dgd d my 4' ,fy SJMQJMJ SENIOR CLASS SONG om, halls of learning Palhways lo a clearer +rul'h, ln our hearls 'Forever burning- Wesfern, memories of youlh.

FOOTBALL Cooley high was consTanTly in The headlines This season, and when The Cardinals meT WesTern, They had To TighT hard To win. Bob Lippe, Cooley's all-ciTy fullback, ripped and roared, as he sparked The CenTral aTTack, which produced The score oT I2-0. The Tield was muddy ThaT day and we believe WesTern was aT iTs season's besT, even Though The Cow- boys losT. WesTern's only vicTory of The season was over SouThwesTern, on OcTober l8, 6-0. By winning, WesTern reTained The coveTed Brown Jug, which is awarded To The winner QT The annual WesTern-SouThwesTern conTesT, Tor anoTher year. The game was played uder a sTeady, dismal downpour oT rain, and only a handful oT loyal Tans saw The specTacular Touchdown, as They shivered under Th-e weT canvas They had Taken To proTecT Themselves. NeiTher Team had been able To score up To The 'FourTT, period, when WesTern's dramaTic Touchdown came. WiTh liTTle more Than Three minuTes To play, Bob SebasTian Tade-d back To Throw a pass, buT There was no one To receive. He darTed down The sidelines, eluding The whole SouTh- wesTern Team, as he picked up inTerTerence, and raced 55 yards Tor The lone score of The aTTernoon. WesTern losT To CenTral The 'Following week, I4-7. A'FTer CenTral had scored on a line plunge, resulTing 'From a susTained drive, Bill GriTTiThs, Cowboy quarTerback, Took a CenTral punT on his own TiTTeen and sped The remaining eighTy-Tive yards Tor a Touchdown. Bob SebasTian converTed Tor The exTra poinT, Tying The score aT 7-7. ln The lasT minuTe of The TourTh quarTer, WesTern was deep in iTs own In The opening game of The season, a sTrong RedTord Team, led by Gardner BarnsTead, overpowered WesTern, I9-0. BarnsTead, who was chosen on The all-ciTy Team, scored Three Touchdowns againsT WesTern in This conTesT. Two boys were missing Trom The line-up ThaT aTTernoon. They were Ed Bobowski and George TaTsak. Bobowski, who was expecTed To Till one oT The halfback posiTions, was 'Forced To warm The bench due To a head iniury susTained in pracTice. TaTsak, a 240 Tackle, was ouT oT The line-up because oT a hand iniury. In The second gridiron clash againsT Chadsey, WesTern held a one poinT lead, 7-6, and iT looked as Though The Cowboys would win. ln The lasT minuTes of The TourTh quarTer, however, a long Chadsey pass clicked and broughT The ball down To The WesTern one TooT line. In Two plays Chadsey carried iT over. The kick was good, making The Tinal score I3-7. ... ,... AgainsT U. of D., on OcTober 5, WesTern puT up a good fighT buT was pracTically impoTenT. WesTern had blasTed The Cubs' championship hopes in The Two previous seasons, and apparenTly This Time The Cubs were Taking no chances, as They piled up 38 poinTs To WesTern's 7. WesTern acTually sTruck TirsT in This conTesT. A pass Trom SebasTian To Jim Breh- mer seT up WesTern's only marker. An end laTeraI play from The Ten yard line, wiTh Bill Cheedie carrying The ball, .did The Trick. This play was used exTensively by WesTern in T945 and helped bring a WesT Side championship To Coach MaTheson and his boys. TerriTory and Tried a pass. Chernoff, of CenTral, neaTly inTercepTed iT and ran TwenTy yards Tor The deciding marker. Wilbur WrighT provided The opposiTion Tor The lasT game of The season, and upseT WesTern, I2-8. A parTially blocked WesTern pass gave The PiloTs Their winning marker. The ball sailed high in The air and a WrighT player grabbed iT as iT came down and raced away Tor The score. WiTh only Bill Cheedie and Ken Wenzel reTurning from The regular eleven of I945, Coach MaTheson's TooTball Team came Through The T946 season wiTh only one vicTory. Aside Trom Cheedie and Wenzel, The Team was relaTively inexperienced. Frank Buckner, who was also on The T945 squad, sTarTed againsT RedTord, buT due To iniuries incurred laTer in The season, he was losT To The Team. However, inexperienced as They were, These boys played a hard game. BoTh Wenzel and Cheedie, who acTed as co-capTains, won all-ciTy honors aT The end of The season. s L TRACK Af fhe suggesfion of fhe high school coaches, fhe frack season was cuf from fwenfy fo fhirfeen weeks, and fherefore only fwo indoor meefs were held. Wesfern broke even in fhese fwo. ln fhe firsf meef againsf Mackenzie, Wesfern losf by fourfeen poinfs, 50-36. Regardless of fhe score, if was a close meef. Againsf Cenfral fhe following week, fhe Cow- boys were more aggressive, as fhey rolled up a score of 60-2X5 fo 25-3X5 for fhe Cenfralifies. ln- dividual scoring honors wenf fo Bob Jackson, who fofaled fen poinfs and ran in fhe relay. Wesfern qualified four boys for fhe cify finals, held af Cenfral on March 28. The four made up Wes'I'ern's relay feam, which also qualified. They were Bob Jackson, in fhe high and low hurdles, Charles Baker, in fhe 440 yard dash, Charles Smifh in fhe 220 yard dash, and Bill Holcomb. Cooley successfully defended ifs fifle, as if swepf all challengers from fhe field, scoring 38 poinfs. Wesfern finished in fhe same place as lasf year-sevenfh. The Cowboy quarfef fofaled I7- I ,V2 poinfs alfogefher. The sfar of fhe evening was Tom Sfewarf, fhe all-cify flash from Denby. Besides 'scoring I8 poinfs himself, Sfewarf ran on fhe Denby relay feam, which sef a new record of I:35.5. The old mark, I:36.6, was sef by Denby in I946. Bob Jackson was second high scorer of fhe evening wifh I0-7X8 poinfs fo his credif. Jackson equal-ed fhe league record in winning fhe high hurdles f:4.2H. ln fhe 30 yard low hurdles, Jack- son ran second fo Sfewarf who equaled fhe record for fhaf evenf C:4.2j. Charlie Baker was fourfh in fhe 440 yard dash, running fhe disfance in :56., only one second away from fhe winning feam. Charles Smifh was sixfh in fhe 220 yard dash, while Wesfern's relay feam fied Norfhwesfern for fhird place honors. CROSS COUNTRY Due fo fhe lack of boys fhaf furned ouf for cross counfry, fhe age limif was lowered fo fiffeen for fhe firsf fime in fhe hisfory of fhe sporf af Wesfern. The response fhaf followed was amazing. Wesfern boasfed fhe larqesf furn-ouf on record. ln spife of fhis fremendous furn-ouf, Wesfern had a poor season, failing fo win a meef. The Cowboys ran fourfh in all of fheir cinder confesfs. Besides fhe difficulfy in geffing fhe boys ouf, Wesfern was faced wifh a coaching problem. Coach Laub, who handled frack lasf spring, was assisfinq on fhe foofball field, while Coach Gun- nerson had his hands full wifh fhe swimming feam. Coach Gunnerson shouldered fhe fask, however, and began geffing fhe feam in shape. Diminufive Jerry Larson was selecfed as fhe feam's capfain. Larson was fhe firsf Wesfern run- ner fo cross fhe finish line in every meef. Ofher leffer-winners were Reggie Bay, who usually ran second fo Larson, Ed Bobowski, Fred Hamef, and Bill Holcomb. ATTer Their 36-27 win over Chadsey, The Cowboys reTurned home To BASKETBALL A'FTer The delay caused by The coal shorTage lasT Tall, WesTern's cagers swung inTo The I946-47 season wiTh a vicTory over Chadsey and Then wenT on To esTablish a 4 won, 5 losT record. Coach John Laub Took over The reigns This season and, alThough WesTern won only Tour games, he fashioned a sTrong Team. On paper, WesTern's I946-47 cagers don'T look very well, buT, as is oTTen The case, The figures lie. WesTern losT more Than one game by only a 'Few poinTs, aTTer allowing The opposiTion To build up a proTecTive lead in The TirsT quarTer. This seemingly 'l'irsT quarTer impoTency of The Cowboy squad probably cosT WesTern a play-off berTh. CapTain Bob SebasTian, who won an award 'from The DeTroiT WesT- ward, naming him as The ouTsTanding aThleTe of The souThwesT disTricT, led The Team in scoring and 'Fired The aT+ack ThroughouT The season.

BASEBALL Wesfern's baseball feam was braced by eighf lefferwinners af fhe sfarf of fhe season, fwo of whom won all cify honors in I946. Those veferans were Ed Bobowski, who won an all cify sfripe as a pifcher, and Angelo Maeso, all cify second sacker. The ofher five veferans were Bill Cheedie, cafcher, Don Cameron, who was broughf in from fhe ouffield fo play fhird base early in fhe season, Ray Schefsky, Jerry Larson, who handled relief cafching chores, and Bob Sebasfian, shorfsfop. Sebasfian was chosen fhe feam's capfain in I946. Anofher boy who won his leffer in baseball and refurned fo play fhis season was Tom Lawson. Lawson played cenferfield when he was nof pifching. This husky hurler will probably be Wesfern's main hope on fhe mound nexf year. Besides being a capable pifcher, Lawson can hif a long ball, as opposing pifchers have found ouf. Ed Bobowski and Bill Cheedie, who were Wesfern's number one baffery lasf year, handled mosf of fhe baffery work again fhis season. Cheedie has consisfenfly proven a fhreaf af fhe plafe, which has furfhered his value fo fhe feam. Cheedie and Bobowski work fogefher almosf faulflessly and are rafed among fhe besf pifcher-cafcher combinafions in fhe Mefropolifan League. ln I946, Bobowski pifched a no-hiffer againsf Redford High, as he hurled his feam info fhe play-offs af Briggs Sfadium, backed by some fine playing by his feammafes. Wesfern losf fo Mackenzie in fhis confesf, as fhe Sfags blasfed nine runs across fhe plafe fo fop Wesfern's efforfs by one marker, 9-8. ln losing fo Mackenzie, Wesfern placed fourfh in fhe cify. On fhis same affernoon, Highland Park defeafed Hamframck for fhe Mefropolifan League fifle. ln fhe wesf league, Wesfern fied Mackenzie for firsf place honors, winning seven games and losing fwo. ln fhe firsf game of fhe season Wesfern faced Wilbur Wrighf wifh fhe following line-up: On fhe mound, Ed Bobowskig behind fhe plafe, Bill Cheedieg af firsf base, Jim Brenmerg af second base, Angelo Maeso: af shorfsfop, Bob Sebasfiang af fhird, Don Cameron, in righf field, Ralph Carey, in cenfer field, Tom Lawson: in leff field, Vaughn Solakian. Wesfern came fhrough wifh a decisive ll-0 win over fhe Pilofs. Ed Bobowski was fhe winning pifcher as he held fhe Wrighf feam fo fwo hifs. ln sharp confrasf fo Bobowski's mound performance, fwo Wrighf hurlers were fagged for seven hifs. Alfhough if was a clear vicfory for Wesfern, fhe Pilofs would nof have suffered such a reeling sefback if fheir fielding had been a li'Hle beffer. ln fhe opening inning, Wesfern shof ahead fo a four run lead. The fireworks sfarfed when Sebasfian walked and advanced fo second on an error which puf Lawson on firsf. Affer Cheedie slammed a double info leff field, scoring Sebasfian wifh fhe firsf run of fhe game, Carey walked, filling fhe bases. Anofher double, fhis fime by Cameron, scored fwo more runs. The fourfh marker came when Carey scored on a long fly. Bob Sebasfian and Bill Cheedie doubled lafer in fhe game, which, combined wifh fhe errors made by Wilbur Wrighf, accounfed for Wesfern's ofher runs. Tom Lawson, who had sfarred in cenfer field, came info relieve Bobowski in fhe lasf inning, while Larson fook over fhe cafching chores. Wesfern's relief hurler puf a quick end fo fhe game, as he fanned fhree Wrighf baffers in succession. 4 ii' 2, , I , Uf Xx '- :O XCIXQD T 4 l ixx X '-X S x XX Tanker Twins SWIMMING Affer coming fhrough fhe regular league compefifion wifh six vicfories, as againsf one defeaf, Wes+ern's swim feam, coached by Wilbur Gunnerson, wenf on fo capfure second place honors in fhe cify finals. ln l945, Wesfern was fourfh in fhe cify. This pasf season fhe only feam fhaf beaf Wesfern in a regular dual meef was Norfhwesfern, fhe school which has dominafed fhe swimming scene for fhe pasf few seasons and once more won fhe. crown. In fhe cify meef, Wesfern's relay feam, composed of Ron Alsobrooks, Harry Ackerman, and Joe Simkus, broke fhe cify record, buf a powerful Norfhwesfern feam snapped back wifh a beffer fime fhan fhaf of fhe Cowboy frio. Besides compefing in fhe m-edley relay, Ackerman also fook second place in fhe I00 yard back srfoke. Joe Simkus, anofher relay man, was second in fhe diving evenf. Frank Hanson secured fhird place poinfs in bofh fhe IOO yard free sfyle and fhe individual medley races for Wesfern. Bob Simkus placed fhird in fhe I00 yard back sfroke and fourfh in 'the individual medley. ln fhe breasf sfroke evenf, Ron Alsobrooks losf fo Tony Bandyke, of Norfhwesfern, by one fenfh of a second. Alsobrooks had previously beafen Bandyke in fhe Wesf League meef. Alsobrooks nearly mafched fhis performance againsf Tech by seffing a new Redford pool record by l:07.7. Wifh fhe fank squad in I946. ln a pre-season swim meef wifh Cass Tech, Alsobrooks broke a Wesfern pool record for fhe breasf sfroke Ql:08.2j, which was esfablished in I939 by Ray Mondro. The new mark sef by Alsobrooks is I:07.5. Mondro, in I939, also sef a cify record for fhe breasf sfroke fI:07j. ln a regular meef wifh Redford near fhe end of fhe season, Alsobrooks nearly mafched fhis performance againsf Tech by seffing a new Redfod pool record by I:O7.7. Wifh fhe graduafion of Tony Bandyke, fhe way seems clear for Alsobrooks fo win fhe cify breasf sfroke championship. And now, a brief resume of fhe season. The Cowboys' firsf meef of fhe season was wifh Norfhwesfern, defending cify champion. Againsf fhe Colfs, Wesfern was able fo fake only one firsf place. Harry Ackerman 'rook fhis in fhe IOO yard backsfroke. Ron Alsobrooks mef his rival Tony Bandyke in a close confesf, wifh Bandyke fouching ouf a fracfion of a second sooner fhan Alsobrooks. The Norfhwesfern relay feam unofficially broke fhe cify record CI :25.6j wifh a remarkable fime of I:24.6. The final oufcome of fhis meef was Norfhwesfern 59, Wesfern 32. Even if Wesfern had won on ofher confesf, by winning over Soufhwesfern by fhe 'tremendous score of 73-IB, fhe season would have been considered a vicforious one. The Prospecfors were pracfically helpless againsf Wesfern and were able fo fake only one firsf place. This lone firsf was in diving. Wesfern had liffle frouble in defeafing Mackenzie in fhe Sfags' pool, as firsf places were faken by Joe Simkus, Ron Alsobrooks, Frank Hanson, and James Sackeff. Meefing Chadsey af fhe Boys' Club, Wesfern defeafed fhe Explorers, 53-39. The fwo feams were rafher evenly mafched, buf Wesfern had a slighf edg-e over Chadsey and fook four firsfs in winning. Cooley's swim feam offered fougher compefifion fo fhe Cowboy nafafors, buf fhe Cardinals losf ouf by a narrow margin, 50-4l. Alfhough Wesfern fook six firsfs, fhe Cooley fankers would have won had nof Wesfern secured second place poinfs in fhe l50 yard individual medley. Ron Alsobrooks furned in anofher fine performance in fhe breasf sfroke, as he missed fhe cify record by one second. Wesfern mef Redford in fhe Huskies' pool, vanquishing fhem by fhe score of 58-33. Two pool records were broken fhis affernoon. Alsobrooks sei a new breasf sfroke record, while 'rhe medley feam sef a new record in fhaf evenf. The Cowboys closed fhe regular season wifh a crushing vicfory over Cenfral. Wesfern's nafafors capfured seven firsf places in piling up 66 poinfs fo Cenfral's 25. Leading fhe Wesfern swimmers in scoring for fhis season was Joe Simkus wifh bl-lf3 poinfs. The nexf four high scorers were as follows: Frank Hanson, 60-II4, Harry Ackerman, 53-213, Bob Simkus, 5l-3f4, and Ron Alsobrooks, 45-213. Besides fhese boys, leffers were won by Ricardo Corfez, James Sackeff, Don Johnson, Jerry Jehle, Bob Sfebbins, Hecfor Pompa, Edward Zygmunf, and Joseph Lazano. GIRLS' SWIM TEAM Frances M.

Each year sees new domestic Gas services developed and existing Gas services brought to a higher degree of excellence. Gas ranges become more efficient year by year. Automatic Gas water heaters supply ample hot water for the family's use with greater economy and complete dependability. The Gas refrigerator, using an exclusive principle which does away with moving parts, sets standards of refrigerating efficiency. Gas services recently grown popular are Gas-fired incinerators to end garbage and trash disposal problems, and Gas-fired clothes dryers-a con- venience which completes the home laundry. For home services-Gas is best!

Edison is the most famous. Yet the man who did so much for humanity never had more than a few years of formal education. Forced to discontinue school, young Tom Edison worked on the Grand Trunk railroad between Port Huron and Detroit. Fortunately for the world, his train had a daily layover of nearly five hours in Detroit. For Thomas A. Edison, high school and college were an ancient build- ing, the Young Men's Society Library, on jefferson Avenue, a few doors east of Woodward. Between THE DETROI runs, he buried himself in its books, devouring them, not by subject or author, but by shelf and section. Throughout his life, this desire to learn was characteristic of Mr. Edison. At eighty, he was as diligent as he had been at eighteen. While few of us have his thoroughness and capacity for concentration, all of us can profit by his example. For Mr. Edison's life and works are clear-cut evidence that education need never stop with graduation or with the end of formal schooling. Despite the excellence of our high schools and colleges, that is as true in our day as it was in his. T EDI 0 CO.
