C. KNOELK, Principal The pride of progress in our Centennial year has had a shadow cast over it by the fear of failure in the world's search for peace. For the Hrst time since creation, we hold in our hands the staggering power to determine our own destiny, whether it shall lead to further progress and pride or fasten the fear of war and death upon all civilization. The possibilities of nuclear energy in promoting peace-time pursuits are still merely gleams in the scientist's eye but we must learn never to be misled into underestimating the hazards. The same deter- mination, self-control and creative thinking which made our State great can be made to give us ease of living, release from drudgery, and abundance for all. The common factors for success in either direction are will-power, straight thinking, and controlled emotions. The past is forever furnishing the seeds for the future. We are not merely to acclaim the heroism which made our State a gleaming star in the flag of our nation, we must also study the elements of that greatness. We are called upon to sift out the dross in history's onward sweep and learn to cherish those traits of men and women which made for greatness, faith, integrity, patience, vision. Applied with equal fervor to the future, these characteristics will enable the dreams of men for the use of atomic energy in peace- time living to be realized. r X Then the greatness of our State in its centennial ,year lies not only in Gettysburg, in dairy farms and welfare legislation but in the stout hearts and powerfui souls of our pioneers and in their promise that our dreams of the goodness of the future will not be in vain. 32 C. V. WHITCOINIB, Vice-Principal Many of us remember the story of a man in ancient Persia who became so obsessed by a desire to possess great wealth in diamonds that he sold his little plot of land and journeyed far to search for these precious stones, which he never found. But the new owner found, among the pebbles of a little brook that flowed through one corner of his garden, a shining stone, a fine diamond, and by digging there he discovered many others of great price. Perhaps we have heard, too, of the farmer in Pennsylvania, who wished to make more money than he could by farming through work in the petroleum industry. He sold his farm to a man who discovered there, where the city of Titusville now stands, a great well of crude oil. Stories such as these should teach us to look for great opportunities near at hand. West Division is hlled with great wealth which can be ours if we but digl'. What is of more value to youth today than knowledge gained from the experience of others and power of mind developed through study and research? These no man can take from us, They are here, if we but seek and work for them, in our own garden, in West Division. -vw 3,7 The F lrst Step's for Arlthmetlc, Where the Co-sine's on the Beam HOWARD AKER Math ematicy Pet Peeve: A school clay that begins before 10:00.

Our boys gave their all before being downed by Rufus King in another heartbreaker. For three weeks after that we watched West fight gamely but come out of each game on the short end of the score. Then in playing against Pulaski it hap- pened. We can still remember it as though it were yesterday. Shevey running 90 yards with an intercepted pass for a touchdown. Damske driving through the Ramblers' line like a bulldozer. Brockway making himself a demon on defense. With all of this came West's first victory. The next week in the game against East, although we didn't win, we got our money's worth by watching the bands parade up and down the field in Halloween attire. All of our cheering was jammed into the first minute of play as Stick Michalski caught a sleeper pass from Bob Vilar for a touch- down. SENIOR LETTERMEN R. Shevey, T. Mathas, J. Burke, V. Evenson. Fought for Us an Early Fall Freezing weather, a terrihc wind and a small group of rabid rooters turned out for the last game of the year. We were all brought to our feet on the opening kickoff as Bill Wis- otzke dashed 80 yards for a touchdown, with the aid of a crushing block by jerry Volk in our stunning victory over South. Do you remember how sad we all were when the tying touchdown was called back be- cause of clipping in the Custer game or when we heard that Don Stern had broken his angle? There were humorous moments too. Poor Bob Shevey was always getting his nose in the way and this appendage always took a differ- ent shape each week. Brockway had to make an abrupt departure in the middle of a game due to a stomach disorder. The dwarfed look of our pint sized tackles Vic Evenson and Dick Klee while standing next to our immense guards, Tim Mathas and Jerry Volk, made a good cartoon. Although we didn't win many games this year, our boys won the respect of every team in the city and we are really proud of them. SENIOR LETTERMEN W. Brockway, G. Volk, R. Klee R. Turtenwald, R.

These words were often repeated as Carroll led West's cross-country ath- letes in all but one meet. Although the team itself won no meets, the entire squad took personal pride in Sternberg's victories, which climaxed in his winning the City Turkey Run crown. Carroll Sternberg Sternberg Gives Us All Some joys lli'vw'I Side in Actimz XVest's basketball team wasnt the champ of the conference. but that didnt bother anyone. The fans of the Redmen still kept on pouring into the various gyms and stuck by their team, XVin or lose they still cheered on the boys. The team did its best, although the breaks didn't .1lW1lyS CUTTTC its YVHY. North and East were tough outfits in any- bodys language: so the boys couldnt be blamed for these two defeats. However, they came through against Custer and XWashington with a pair of victories. After these four games the bottom fell out. The Red and X'7Uhite couldnt quite keep pace with Kings co-champ crew and Bay View could thank their lucky stars that the gun went off when it did. Juneau, with all of the luck that any team could hope for, c0uldn't help but win. Then came Tech. This game topped everything that had 9 come along. Leading a tough Boilermaker quintet throughout niost of the game. Coach Cierbers lads were nosed out in the final moments. You'd think that was enough. but no. along came Pulaski to win an overtime tussel. For the first two periods the Redmen had doubled the Ramblers scorei but before anyone knew what had happened in the second half. both teams were fighting neck-to-neck. The final two games were against two of the co-champs, South and Lincoln. The team started out fast in both tilts, holding lil-6 and leads over the Cardinals and Blue Comets. but withered against the torrid pace which each team set. Next years squad should really be in the thick of the race. With three regulars returning, a good B-team and a Frosh-Soph outfit, hopes will be high around the Redmens den.

They ran away with their com- petitors in both the junior-senior and freshman-sophomore meets. ln the new intermediate class the Redmen were nosed out by one-half point. Many diiiiculties were encountered before the meet. Last year's freshman- sophomore city champion, Jerry Leh- man, broke his wrist in practice and was lost for the meet, it was doubtful if Johnnie Adams could compete be- cause of a foot ailment, and the eligi- bility of Tony l.eFleur, the only re- turning letterman was in question. But still the Red and White could not be denied victory. JUNIOR-SENIOR SCORES T. La Fleur 94.0 Koch 88.0 B. Strong 94.0 T. Stansell 87.0 J. Adams 93.5 Lossa 85.5 R. KOS . 90.0 H.

Leon McFadden and Neil Coakley took second and third place respec- tively in the second class. Once again West housed the first class city champ when Dick Babcock scored top honors. After the showing that the gym teams gave this year, it isn't likely that Coach Erv Gerber's boys will be dethroned in the near future. FRESHMEN-SOPHOMORE SCORES R. Babcock .... . 95.5 G.

It's a sure bet, with the bunch of putters that Coach Raison has. Not much grass will be left where the Redmen set foot. And to prove to you that golf is a killer, ask jim Burke and Jerry Wuhrman. They almost died in the sun during the game with Racine's Washington Park state champions. But let's put all kidding aside. This year's golf team is really a bunch of hustlers. Dick Ras- mussen is a cinch to place in the honored group, followed close behind by Wuhrman and Tom Taylor. If everything goes right, West should be boosting another trophy.

In between we have Bob Vilar and jim Burke, the boys that voice football and basketball, re- spectively. Taking the minutes of this chummy little outfit is Nancy Samuelson, president of the G.A.A. girls. Keeping an eagle eye over things is the mustache himself, Doc Raisen. Their simple duties are to de- cide who has earned themselves the school monogram and other decisions pertaining to athletics. What does the word sports make you think about? Teams? Uniforms? Doc ? Loud shout- ing? Or maybe its cheer lead- ers! If so, you're probably think- ing of that jolly bunch, in their shiny red jackets, yelling Come on, gang! You picture those red and white megaphones so vividly that you can almost hear a great big- UU, rah, rah, West Di-vi- sion, you're thinking of the many games they enlivened with their cheers and tricks and you're thinking, Why, it wouldn't be 'sports' without cheerleaders! l G.A.A.

It's the tap of the typewriters producing Comet newspaper copy for the printers. At the bottom of the newspaper stairs sit the reporters busily finding out information and writ- ing their stories. Next in line are the columnists who bring you Knick-Knacks, Shopping Around, Crimson Stars, Hit Parade and others. With them are the busy feature writers. Up a step are the copy readers. Next comes the headline and re-write writers, making leads more suitable and headlines fit. Up another step are the proof readers, check- ing once again for errors. Above this is the board of editors, each super- vising his own field and doing his job to the best of his ability. At the head of the stairs is the editor-in-chief, busily checking on last minute news flashes, read- ing proof, and making up the pages so the Comet will come out on time.

Each organization performed for a main and homeroom shift during the year and was en- thusiastically welcomed by the student body. A public concert was also given in the late winter where our choir, orchestra, and junior En- semble were graciously received. Mt. Coffelt, Mr. Baht, and Mr. Rucktenwald are the directors who put much time and effort into producing our top musicians.

And what is more entertaining than a Sock and Buskin production? In the fall, Sock and Buskin cast janu- ary Thaw and in the spring it aided with the casting of the all-school play production May Fevern. Both were light, loveable comedies that showed what talent West Division really has! How lucky we thought the orchestra members who could see them twice. Sock and Buskin is also known for its in- itiations. Pie throwing and garlic eating are perennial favorites that really put newcomers into the Thespian spirit. And once they get into the spirit, they quickly become cast mem- bers, committee members, and promoting agents. Other smaller inter-group plays are also given at meetings to give members a chance to become at ease on the stage and to prove their skill. Sock and Buskin is a favorite of both members and non-members at West! i Full of Jokes and Void of Strife JANUARY THAW H. Ehe, D. Sucter, J. Paulos, D. Leach, J. Smith, H. Kutuchieff.

N After fervently chanting conjugations and declinations all day, our Latinites get together at Latin Club meetings just for fun. Here they can meet other Latin students with the same interest- Where can I get a Caesar translation?'y Quickly settling this question the meetings start. Their presiding officers are not merely presi- dent, vice-prexy, etc., but are bestowed with title of Consul, Quaestor, and scriba.

For four years we've been at West-four years rilled alternately with anxiety, hope, joy, laughter, tears. Now we must say goodbye-farewell to good old Westside. No more shall we have the sensation of rush- ing to classes, still damp from late gym showers. No more shall we be able to sit in room 211 on the wood-upholstered seats-enjoying a 45 minute siesta after school. No more shall we be sprayed from head to foot with water when we unsuspectingly stoop to get a drink-giving the bubbler its first morning exercise. No more will the bong-bong-bong of the pub- lic address system wake us from our early morning naps to bring us news of the various clubs, Comet staff meetings, the deadline date for pay- ing panel fees. No more shall we wait impatiently in line for prom tickets, annuals, food, and all the rest of the things for which we've had to wait in line. No more shall we be able to attend football rallies, main shifts or homeroom shifts fthe ones we could sneak into.D All these joys are forever past us-forward lies adult life.
