SPIRIT was fueled by a bonfire built in the new pit before the Douglass game. Kanda Kirkwood is illuminated by the firelight. SUPPORT of community projects has always been given by Knights. Key clubber Jim Cheatham and Courtesy club member Helen Rein- heimer receive a United Appeal contribution from Mrs. Jack Moses. TRYING OUT the monorail, the State Fair's new, novel attraction, are Shirin Sadigh- Ershdi, exchange student from Iran, and Marcy Eagin, her American sister. Expressions of Devotion Found Throughout NWC LOVE of our school has been shown in many ways. Gifts have been presented by individuals, groups, graduating classes, and memorial proiects. From the memorial flagpole and library room, to furniture, book carts, draperies, shrubbery, fountain, and trees, expres- sions of devotion to NWC are found throughout the building and grounds. The American Field Service program has contributed a great deal to the cultural growth of the school. Parents and students have strongly supported this rewarding project. A spirit of unity has always been the motivating force for NWC students, whether it be in the enthusiastic furor of a cheering section, or the quiet pride of reading Northwest Classen in the newspaper. Northwest boasts the nation's largest PTSA membership, the highest number of publication packets in state high schools are sold here each year. Never satisfied with the easily attainable, Knights have al- ways reached out for that something better, only achieved by the persevering. The state and national honors received each year by NWC students surprises none of us, we do no less than our best, and we expect the same of others.
