During our four years stay, West High has suc- ceeded in establishing a high degree of citizenship and a remarkable moral standard, as well as contributing towards our physical and mental education. This has been attained through the aid of a willing and capable faculty, the benefits of many social events, an excellent competitive sports schedule, and a broad curriculum. xfvlftit High has offered, and will continue to offer to its students, the very best of the elements requisite to its purpose. ln our opinion, four years at VVest High have truly prepared us for our next step into the world-be it toward the furtherance of education or the making of a livelihood. VVe now turn to some of the main events which occurred during our stay at West High. ln 1956, 240 awe-stricken freshmen were cordially greeted at the gates of West High by their devoted advisor, Mr. Meyers. Since that tirst meeting, Mr. Meyers has capably and successfully guided us through our four years. He was assisted by six competent fa- culty advisors, Miss Fruin, Miss Wood, Miss Suino, Miss Thompson, Mr. Newman, and Mr. tlebens, to- gether with the other members of the faculty. Among the tasks which they supervised were the publication of the EOS, annual parties, selection of class rings and announcements, commencement, and numerous other undertakings. XVhen we entered NVest High, in the fall of 1936, we were confronted with the task of electing officers. As a result of this election, Helen Wheeler was made president, and Vincent Desmond, Rosalie Reising, and Marjorie Mae Stolp were elected to assist her through- out the year. The freshman dance, given on the even- ing of April 9, marked the highlight of the social events of the year. Under the leadership of Eugenie Bennethum, Robert liillings, lletty Lund, and Mildred Stolp, we continued our journey through our second year. During this year the Drainatic Club made its debut with a one-act play, A Doctor for a Day. Un April 8, the class was host at the sophomore party held at VVest High, bringing to an end the year's social activities. Leaving our freshman and sophomore years behind, we advanced to the ranks of the upperclassmen. Robert llanbury was head of the class board, with VVilliam Goldsmith, Clara lferry, and Ada Thomas assisting. During this year members of the class of '40 had the President, Mickey Ewing: Vice'President, Don Frank: Secretary, Betty Lund: Treasurer, Clara Ferry. honor of participating in the newly organized Student Council. The Junior Dramatic Club presented its annual class play, lily Away Home, on the evenings of liebruary Z3 and 24. The junior llrom held at NVest lligh, on June 5, was the climax of our junior year. The setting of this gala affair was a penthouse, with Martha l'ease reigning as Prom Queen. This colorful and picturesque event marked the end of another year. The 181 remaining students entered their senior year only to realize that this was their last and most important year at West lligh. Harry Ewing headed the executive force, with the help of Donald lirank, Betty Lund, and Clara lierry. Albert Pike was elected to head the Student Council through its second consecutive year. Charlotte Williiei' was elected to act as EUS editor, while Mildred Stolp was elected associate-editor. Evelyn Kuhn won the position of business manager. Throughout our four years a large number of boys were active in sports and girls in the G. A. A. There were members of the class of '40 in almost every activity in the school. llefore we realized it, our last year was coming to an end. As a climax to their dramatic career, the seniors presented their class play, june lN'lad. To stimulate the ticket sales, an ex- citing contest was held between the boys and girls with the girls coming through victorious. Then came baccalaureate on June 2 with the Reverend Ernest T. Smith as speaker. The Junior l'rom followed in a swirl of gaiety and Class Day came with the pre- sentation of the EUS and the unforgettable class picnic. Com- mencement on 'lune 7 ended our glorious high school career. Ilr. Slutz gave the commencement address and the seniors in their caps and gowns made an impressive picture as they received their long-awaited diplomas. Thus our four years at VVest lligh come to an end, leaving the class of 1940 richer in knowledge, wiser, and with many pleasant memories.

ONWARD WE MARC , , Q September 9th, the clay when long hours of sleep and days of idleness come to an end, the youth of America again focus their attention on the all important quest for knowledge. 'llhey realize the great potentiality of education without which this bountiful country would soo11 crumble and disintegrate into total oblivion. To this end the ponderous draw-bridge ot West High was once again let down, allowing those that wished to cross the moat of ignorance to enter into the activities of VVest High. Not wishing to be slackers, the class of 42 organized and started on its way. 'llhe hrst problem was to elect officers that would carry the class through the scholastic year with tlying colors. 'llhis was done with the election of Mercer llarnes, presi- l dent: Gordon l'eterson, vice-president, liranlc Gurry, treasurer: and Virginia VVright, secretary. 'lihe Sophs have a line record, even though this is still only their second year. They are well re- presented with lettermen in all forms of sports. Many of the fold have become excellent dehaters. 'llhe class boasts of some very hne actors whose talent was recognized in the sophomore play, 'llhree's a Crowd. All members of the cast turned in stellar performances. 'llhe big event of the year was the sophomore class dance held on the evening of April l9th. The decorations were novel and carried out to the most minute detail. lt was truly a gala occasion, one which will he remembered long after we have passed from the halls of VVest' High. The year ended as it had begun with a beautiful summer day, but to the sophomores it had meant a long hard work-out tinished and also the expectation of becoming upper classmen when the doors of Wfest High are once more thrown open. l 'fi'- Xf i I President, Mercer Barnes: Vice-President, Gordon Petersong A W Secretary, Virginia Wright: Treasurer, Frank Gurry.

The various initals of the schools were spelled out and many novelty numbers were paraded for the spectators. Leatlng these occasions were the etticient twirling drum majors, Mary Louise Nigro and Rhoda llonlcle.

Dixieland Minstrel, N'EST - CE PAS? Le Cercle Francais, under the guidance of Mademoiselle Raymond, has given its members, students taking second year French, a realia or cultural background to supplement their language study. The group acquainted itself with French classics and also some of the modern French literature, last year's classic being 'Le Conte lie Monte Cristo and this year's, Colomba. lylany short stories and plays made up the current reading material. The familiar phrase, la seance est ou- vertef' meant to Le Cercle Francais, the opening of another interesting monthly program which usually consisted of games, songs, plays, lectures, and movies. At the meetings of this club, entertain- ment was furnished by various club mem- bers. Les Trois Nurs, or The Three Bears 3 La I rincesse, an adaptation from Henri V, Le Guignolf' and Les Trois Mousquitaires were among the short skits presented this year. ln the homecoming parade, Le Cercle Francais received honorable mention for 'lLe Wreelr de Rockford by Napoleon. Several members of this club correspond- ed with French students, and those who didn't, learned of current' events in France through a newspaper, La l'resse. Une of the best liked features of the Club was the translation of popular songs into French and the singing of them by the class. This year Eugenie lilennethum served as president of the club and Audrey Gemmer as secretary-treasurer.

Sophomores Fisticuff It In Three's A Crowd THE STARLET HOUR The Sophomore Dramatic Club was a voluntary activity open to any second year students who were interested in further educating themselves along the lines of dramatic art. llette Miller and .lack Deindorfer, co-chairmen, and Barbara Mellquist, substi- tute chairman, were elected by the club's fifty-six members at the beginning of the year, At every meeting a one-act play was presented in interpretive reading with action. Simple settings and costuming were used and the play was presented before the club members following two or three rehearsals. Those who were interested in acting were given parts in one of the ten one-act plays presented for the enter- tainment of the club. The others were assigned to committee work. The climax of the year was the sophomore one-act play given before the entire Sllltliflill burly, April lQ. Three's A Crowd, a one-act comedy by Sara and Clayton lXlcCarthy, was the play chosen by the play-reading committee. The cast included four adolescents who were as follows: Eddie, llill Mossgroveg Madeline, Liv Thomsethg Ellen, Dorothy Crowley: Elmer, lienneth llallmang and Mr. johnson, Carl llammond. The trials and tribulations typical of young people over the face of the earth were expressed in the plot of this play. Ifddie hlohnson, who was a girl-shy boy of sixteen, found himself in the worst predicament imaginable when the sophisticated Madeline, whom he had long adored from a distance, thoughtlessly brought her younger sister, Ellen, along on their dance date. llis cousin, and rival in romance, Elmer, annoys him and makes matters worse until Eddie's father arrives to solve the situation. -Ioe Slalcer was the student production manager. Bliss llelen XYood and Miss Esther l'hares were responsible for the good work done by these energetic students and credit should be given them for the grand instruction they have given the sophomores. Freshman dramatic club makes debut in The Tarnished Witherspoonsn. AMATEUR HOLIDAY llrama plays one of the most important roles in the lields of culture and art. This is splendidly introduced to the freshmen entering West High, in the liresh- man lJramatic Club. Sixty freshmen joined last fall and have had a most enjoy- able year. 'llhis club is L1I1ClC1' the combined leadership of Miss Catherine Ratcliffe and Miss llirdine Morris, the faculty advisors. lt was decided last fall, when the club organized for the year, not to have club otticers, but to choose a different chairman to preside at each meeting. .lt was also decided to meet twice a montheon the tirst and third 'llhursdays The high light of this year's work in the club was a one-act play, presented to the student body in an assembly. 'llhe play, entitled The 'llarnished VVither- spoons, had a cast of six. The story involved a leading and ideal social family of a small town who discover, under peculiar circumstances, a skeleton in their family closet -which really turns out to be a mistake. However through this incident will and M rs. VVitherspoon lose some of their high and mighty opin- ions. Grandma XVitherspoon was played by .lean Goedert and Grandpa XfVither- spoon by Neal Sprague. Henry and lXlargaret VVitherspoon, the mother and father, were Philip Ruby and Ruth Currier, respectively: Helen VVitherspoon was played by Donna liae Hipp and Charles by Bob Ferguson. This play proved that the freshmen really deserve the credit they are accorded and established their ability as actors and actresses. 'llhe other main project of the Freshman Dramatic Club was the observance of lilook Wfeek. A program of skits and readings from various books was given. At their regular meetings, short plays, impersonations, and pantomimes were presented, with all members having their turn at taking part. l anemia V W if 5-.Yi ,,. ' 'I7 ' 1 . - . . . Q, ,W I .

HAWK CI-IIEFS Among the more important branches of any motleru high school is the athletic department. lf a high school is to molil future citizens with char- acter, the school must train the students to enter into competitive activities :mtl give their all. All high school stutlents shoultl be trained in some form of sports. lt is the tluty of tive men to carry out this pro- gram for the stutleuts of VVest High. These men are lNlig Apsit, Leo Tilly, Larry Allen, Hap .lebens auil Gordon Smith. ln the fall of the year the incoming freshman football player is put on Coach Gordy Smith's squatl. lf he is heavy antl shows unusual prowess, he can be transferretl to the varsity squad. The smaller boys are put on Coach Allen's new squatl of bantamweights. Untler Allen and Smith, the boys learn the funtlamentals of the sport: they play a regular season of scheiluletl regulation games. They can arlvance their secontl year if they are gootl enough, but the majority stay on Coach Smitlfs sfiuail for two years. At the entl of this larva stage of the athlete, they gratluate to either the lightweight squatl, coached by Leo Tilly, or the heavyweight squafl, uncler lleatl-coach Mig Apsit. This system applies to both football antl basketball. VVhen the 1939-1940 basketball season closecl, lightweight competition was clroppecl in the llig Seven Conference. Formerly, Coach Tilly hanclletl the light football squatl and Coach Allen, the light basketball team. ln the spring, track is hancllecl by coaches Tilly antl Alleng tennis by Coach Smith and golf by Coach Apsit. Athletics at VVest High by no means cease at conference sports. They merely begin there. A much larger group of sturlents participate in intramural sports uncler Hap hlebens, who is also assistant heavyweight basketball coach, and Miss vVilson, tl. A. A, atlvisor. lntramural takes in practically every type of competitive sport that can be hanfllefl in a gymnasium. v' WW ' rr use. V WZ A ' I U s X xiii H' i ' Q 1 . 1 -, ' 4 r i fm, . w ,, , ,.

Tumbling and pyramids now took active parts in the winter program. During the winter months, state basketball shooting contests became an active sport in which niore than thirty girls competed. Vtfith the coming of spring, the girls' fancies turned to archery, horse-shoes, baseball, and tennis. Following the circus held on April 5th, the G. A. A. sponsored a dance for the student body. Closing the activities of the G. A. A. for the year was the banquet in june, at which the junior award and the senior cup were presented to two deserving girls from those classes. Each year, the grand finale for G. A. Afers is this banquet at which a junior canip award is given to a girl from the junior class who has most actively parti- cipated in the G.A.A. acti- vities and is most deserving. At the banquet last year, this award went to Helen Eels, then a junior, This - s' Year Helen held office of G. A. A, president. At the same tinie last year, the J senior cup was awarded to i lieth Mercer. The judging for the receiver of this cup is based on a girl's activi- ties, good sportsmanship, leadership, and ability in the G. A. A. throughout her four years in high school. Left: 1.

TOUGH COACH - TOUGH TEAM BANTAMS MIX IT UP' LITTLE MEN Because Coaches Tilly and Allen had too many boys out for football they began to split up the squad, Tilly taking the first three lightweight teams and Allen taking the rest. The latter bunch, mostly freshmen and the smaller sophomores and juniors, were dubbed Bantams by the other ws 'E li S 5 f ll l l ii I W L2 2 1 at , S- is i, M ' .sssgws W - ' ., , l l 0 squads. This squad corresponds to the freshmen-sopho- mores as it is where the unexperienced boys can learn the fundamentals of blocking, tackling, running, passing, and kicking so that they can play on the varsity squads later. The l3antams played a similar team from East Aurora twice and the East Aurora Junior High once. They either tied or won these games earning the title of VVest High's only undefeat- ed football squad. However the results of these games were not important because the object back of the forming of the squad was to teach them fundamentals so that they could really act in the game and have a lot of good clean fun in latter years. 1.

These nine lettermen formed the nucleus of the l'ony squad for the coming season, which has now turned out to be their last. After many weeks of hard practice under the watchful eyes of Coach Tilly, a first team was formed which was composed of ends, ll. Frank, Billings: tackles, Covelli, Rebenstorfg guards, Goldsmith, Peterson: center, McXYethyg backlield, Goss, Taylor, Vanlleventer, Rasey. lfine spirit prevailed thruout the season, not only in games but also during the practice sessions where the boys worked hard to master the plays and polish up the technique of block- ing, tackling and running. A fine example of the spirit of the llawldetts was their ability to hold the enemy from pushing across their goal line and also their ability to come from behind, which they did in the LaSalle-l'eru and Freeport games. Their iirst game with Downers Grove-a victory-was the 117 Captain kicks. 121 Oops! it's gone. 2 X11 ' ,-.., q--1141 3 I -. J- 4.1 1 , 2 -qu .

Healy led the VVest scorers with 12 points, but Coal City's Emanuelson dropped in 23 to win the game, 45 to 40. In their first conference start, VVest's Red Raiders traveled across the river and lost to East, conference champs. llseman led all scorers with 17 points but two Hawk sophomores, Healy and Peterson, each tallied seven. Good teamwork was the deciding factor in the Rockford-West game, played in the home gym, January 2. Rockford, last year's state champs, had no individual stars, but playing as a unit, won, 35 to 29. Un the enemy court, VVest was run rough-shod over by the Elgin charges, 37 to 21. The Maroons took over as soon as the opening whistle was tooted and pro- ceeded to run up the score and hold down the Hawks. Caging their first victory of the year, Apsits improved Blackhawks trounced Freeport's Pretzels, 36 to 25. Guard Rasey was the big gun in the VVest attack with 11 points: Pike hooked in eight. Playing in the gigantic Joliet gym, VVest dropped one to the Steelmen, 37 to 30, Rasey was again the spark in the West cause with ten points. The Hawks just couldn't hit in the large gym. With Gapinski and flalachowski scoring 33 of LaSalle's 46 points, the Hawks lost another tilt, 46 to 30, on the home court. Reserve Billings led the Hawk attack with five buckets for ten points. Contrary to public opinion, the lndian sign was not held by the Blackhawks, but by East High, as they took their second victory of the season from West. 36 to IS. The West forces trekked to Rockford on February 3 but still couldnt break that Rockford jinxf' They came home the possessor of a defeat at the hands of the Rabs. Coach Apsit used 13 players as Elgin took VVest on the home oak, 35 to 25. Gordy Cole started at center in place of Captain Pike, but the rest of the first team started. With three regulars fouling out, West took a ten point licking from Freeport on the enemy floor, 41 to 31. Mike Healy scored seven points for the Hawks. With the whole outfit play- ing inspired ball, Apsit's five triumphed over Joliet, 42 to 38. Rasey and Pike with 11 points apiece and Healy with seven aided the cause. Ray Gapinski scored 'over half of LaSalle's points and West lost to the Cavaliers again, 41 to 32.

But to a certain group of athletes spring spells the magic tive letter word, track! Yes, springtime is track- tinie at Nvest High. 'llrack is the grandfather of all sports, being the oldest of any of the activities practiced by the modern high schools. ln ancient Greece, the forerunners of those modern activities such as the shot put, the discus, the javelin, and all the present distance running were organized. lt may seem a long step from ancient Greece and Sparta to the W'est High thinclads, but the idea back of them both is basically the same, namely that of building the bodies and minds of the participants. XVest is particularly fortunate this year in having' experienced, versatile athletes in the form of runners and weightmen to represent her in the coming season. The speedsters who aim to uphold XN'est's banner in the shorter distances are john Hawse, ,lack Goss, Hill Barr, Harvey Seavey, Don Hackett, Frank Gurry, Sam 'llaylor and Stan Humphreys. ln the longer runs the featured performers will be the Richmond twins, Alwin and Arthur: llob Leavy, Frank Gurry, Stan Humphreys and Sam 'liaylor are the other long-distance men. 'I'he timber toppers are well represented by Gordy Cole, llale lleane llob llur- gess, lion lirank, llill lleiss, Ray Keine, and Gordy Peterson. XYest's weightmen are Clarence Sandberg, Mercer llarnes, Mike Healy, llean l'eaks, 'liom XVoodard and Merton Spring. 'Ilhe shot still remains the same old 12 pound iron ball, but the discus has been lightened from four pounds to two and a half. Already the distance it has been thrown is increasing, the present official record in the llig' Seven being held by George Champion of Rockford, although news comes of a toss of 147 feet. 1 Leavey round the bend. 3. Heave ho! Peaks 4 Neck n neck 2 just the beginning. twenty some further than Champions, by a Wis- consin high school athlete. Some of the last year's star performers, now graduates, were Dick Humm in the shot, Tom McCullough as a platter pusher and Kenny VVOllCllVVCl3Cl' hurling the javelin. The javelin has been done away with by the state high school athletic board because of the danger to all those nearby, a downstate athlete being killed by one last year. 'llhose of you who followed the track team last year may also miss Jim Holmblad in the 440 yard dash, Don Owen, for the last three years a star in the hundred. George Peetree, fast 220 yard dash man and Walt Sanders, miler. Bob Nichols' high jumping prowess will be remembered along with Ed Franks' as a former high hurdler. Vtfhile these seasoned veterans will be missed, there is no doubt that this year West has the material on hand for an exceptionally good track team. Up to May l, NVest High has had three track meets, winning from Joliet and losing to DeKalb and Geneva. Top: Hackett digs in.

SWING TIME With the same team as in 1939 returning, the golf team looked forward lu a very successful season. All of Coach Apsit's team, including Rick lloynton, Al l'ike, .lack llaried, llill Ludolph and llob lelillings, played regularly last season and this year are all capable of scoring close to par. At the district met in l939, VVest High was second by one-half a point in the averages, and so missed a chalice to compete in the state tournament. During the whole of the 1939 season the Vllest lligh dutlrers only lost three meets while traveling approximately 250 miles. 'llhe team plays most of the llig' Seven schools twice and extra matches are arranged throug'liout the suhurhs of Chicago. 'llhis year the team will be out to avenge their defeats of other years. when they play the district meet and the Rig Seven links hattle. lloth meets were to be held at the Crystal Lawns Country Cluh of -loliet, lllinois. 3.

Although the club wasn't organized until the middle of the year, it soon became evident that it was to be one of the most popular of West High's clubs. Sponsored by Mr. Meyer, the club's activities were governed by six councilmen elected from the drafting classes and Vincent Desmond, chairman of the council. The Vocational Industrial Club, which is open to anyone interested in the world of industry and commerce, sponsored at their monthly meetings, K f' , speakers on practically all fields of work. lt was Bosses Plan Open House 5 tion possible from speakers who have had much experience in their chosen field. Among those , vocations discussed were drafting, connnercial p advertising, salesmanship, bricklaying, pattern- making, and carpentry.
