HI i Billings West High School is now completing its third year of operation. Several activities established during these years will become traditions for our school. We are proud of the accomplishments thus far, and we urge that each student who enrolls in Billings West High School strive for excellence in each constructive undertaking he encounters. We will continue to attempt to accept each student at his individual level of maturity, capacity, and achievement, and help him to learn those skills and branches of knowledge which will enable him to provide for his school, his community, his nation, and his world.

After a non-con- ference victory over the Custer County Cowboys of Miles City, the Bears lost all conference games, a harsh initiation into the Montana AA Football Conference. All BWHS fans took pride in the excellent quarterbacking of Warren Hill and Jim Lionberger; in the touchdowns made by Bill Elliot, Gerald Bittner, Darrel Walters, and Warren Hill; and in Ron Scott’s honorable mention on the All-State Team. Having taken the initial step, BWHS and the Golden Bears look forward to future football seasons. The superior abilities of the coaching staff and the experience gained by the Bears will combine to produce greatly improved teams.

After winning second place in the BWHS 'ri . i: ■ rui 1 Tournament and playing several Wyoming high school teams, the Bears won their first AA Basketball Conn ■ game by defeating Helena. The Bears had difficulty playing four quarters of consistent ball, but put together several well-played games, dumping Butte by a 16 points margin, upsetting Butte Central 48-47, and edging Anaconda 54-53. As the Westward goes to press the Bears have earned a berth in the AA Tournament, al- though seedings have not yet been determined.
