Westerners ' Week at Fort Lewis was a time when Howdy was the byword and friendship was a practiced art. Sponsored by the Westerners ' Club, Lyle Howard, coun- selor. Westerners ' Week brought to- gether genuine rawhiders and willing dudes in a five-day fun fest, Nov. 2-6. Always ready boosters of nearly every campus activity, social or promotional, the Westerners ' Club was both organ- ized and fully prepared for the week of cowboy capers. During the five-day stomp, ' Vesterners ' Club members appeared on campus in western work duds, fancy dress outfits, and they were highly successful in their coer- cions to prompt the entire student body, faculty and others to follow suit with western attire. Primary among the incentives employed by the west- erners was the establishment of a kangaroo court which meted out such penalties as having to dunk for an apple in a tub of cotd water, pounding nail into a log, and other appropriate fun. All Fort Lewis students were in- vited to participate in game day, a frolic fete limited to the main quad. ...i ;i4jK,i;i..i ' a No dude she, Patricia Everett holds a hand full of scrambled egg as a result of her participation in the egg throwing con- test.
