of College Day, an idea that from its success this year will probably be- come an annual event. Forty-five representatives from dillerent colleges, as well as businesses and industries gathered together at VVest High enabling students to obtain first-hand information about the colleges of their choice. This opportunity was also available to the parents in the evening. A surprisingly interesting event was the Hobby Show, an ailair which disclosed many unusual collections and which acted as an inspiration to all luke-warm followers. Perhaps the greatest divergence from the set routine at VVest High was the commencement program. ln place of an outside speaker, as has been the tradition of VVest High, a pageant entertainment, in which the seniors participated, was produced. A very special mention must be made of lVIrs. Gertrude Scott Smith, dean of girls, who has been not only a guiding force, but also an under- standing and sympathetic dean. llflrs. lvlary Ritzman, West Au- rora's school nurse, always smiling and ready to cooperate in every way. has helped us through our senior year, as she has the past many years. Helen Leigh, secretary to the Board, Alice VVittry, secretary to Superintendent Larson. Catherine Kelly, high school registrar, Shirley Gable. and Evelyn Hawltsley com- plete the office force. MRS. RITZMAN, SHIRLEY GABLE AND CATHERINE RELLX AIXD ALM E XYIITRX
