Westwood Week Whoops abbits Maybe this is the year, thought many Mesa High students. For the last two years Westwood had beaten Mesa in the annual rival game. Enthusiasm and anticipation was felt in the hearts and minds of most stu- dents as the week progressed. With each new day students expressed dif- ferent ways of backing Mighty Mesa High. Rabbits stomped out Westwood on Stomp 'em day , painted their faces up on Rabbit day , and wore black eyes and odd socks on Sock it to 'em day . The Thursday night before the game the Gah Tso Rally was held in an effort to create school involvement. Even though Westwood was victorious, Mesa High showed great determination and has hopes that next year will be the year that Mesa regains her reign.

The Opening Assembly was to wel- come students to Mesa High. Dr. George Smith, Superintendant, and Mr. Noble formally welcomed new and retuming students. Jay Smith, State Director of Safety Education, spoke about gaining school spirit. The varsity football team was intro- duced to the students by Head Coach Reed Peterson. An assembly which informed sopho- mores and reminded juniors and seniors ofthe great past at Mesa High was the Traditions Assembly. Instead Page 10-Student Life of acting out several traditions, mem- bers of Student Council were given a puzzle piece. As each member told about a tradition, a piece ofthe puzzle was erected. The completion of the puzzle, except for the words Carry On , was a replica of the school seal. Paul Dalton then told the story of Carry Oni' as the climax of the as- sembly was the completion of the puzzle. Many students were touched as the halls of Mesa High seemed to talk to them with the Spirit of Mesa High. W t 4 A it Q' ' :H 'i '. 1 NO SMOKING
