What is it? A plane, a bird, or can it be a comet? ln the words of Webster a comet is defined as a heavenly body which moves with incredible speed from or toward the sun in remarkable orbits. Few are seen by the naked eye. This definition can easily describe our 1959 Comet Annual! lt is surely a heavenly body, moving from viewer to viewer with incredible speed, showing its brilliance and simplicity of design to everyone. When the Comet was named after the famous Halley's Comet back in 1898, everyone knew that it too would be famous, and appear in great splendor. Students and faculty knew that it would be marveled at, studied, and talked about by everyone. The idea of a Comet was carried out with the Red Star, West's symbol of victory. Now that we have a new school, new ideas, and new aspects of old traditions, maybe this object and its occupants are coming to help us, hinder us, or observe us. Perhaps the visitors will be extremely brilliant in the fields of chemistry and physics. We can show them that with the arrival of the Space Age came a desire for more knowledge of the unknown among all earth people. Maybe they can tell us of developments with which we are completely unfamiliar. To be able to talk with galaxial people such as these would be an education in itself. Our unidentified obiect is coming closer and closer. lt seems to be taking on the contour of a large smooth obiect, and it is heading straight for West Division! lt is a real down-to-earth rocket! Where is it coming from? Perhaps from Venus - or Mars - the Red Star - West's own symbol! What will its occupants be? A boy-a teenager like we are-or perhaps an adult? We do hope it is a teenager, a boy who will bring his sister along. Maybe she is his twin. Win and Will West would be fantastically appro- priate names. Will they be like us, able to work, have fun, go to school, enioy living? Come with us while we attempt to find some of the answers to the many questions in the minds of youth today!
