ANNUAL YEARBOOK OF THE STUDENTS OF DEEQEERADO WEST HIGH SCHOOL 3 The bell rings, it's nine o'clock and another school day begins. Comes 3:15, and the day is done. The days have passed into in weeks, the weeks into months, the months into semesters, and the semesters into years. And so our high school course ends ..,.. As time goes by, the many happy hours that we have spent at West may fade away and leave only memories. But to make these memories permanent, we have tried to record this passing parade of activities of the Class of '44 ..... And As Time Goes By, this yearbook will serve as a day-to-day reminder of our last years at West, and each time a fellow Cowboy picks up this book and looks through its pages, it will be proof that the Annual has fulfilled its purpose.

To one who has helped the class present its four excellent assemblies and parties. To one who, as a councilor, has aided many a senior to solve his or her personal problems. To one who, as the annual sponsor, has made every effort to give West a book to be cherished. To a real pal who has done everything in her power for the class of '44. To Miss M ARGIE SE TVIN , our friend, whom we shall continue to remember with affection As Time Goes By, we dedicate this our 1944 yearbook. X A TRIBUTE TO... WESTERNERS IN THE SERVICE 0F THEIR CCUNTRY so PROUDLY WE HAIL.. HE thousand-plus West boys and girls and six faculty members who are serving our country in the armed forces. Many have seen overseas service and many hold numerous decorations. Hundreds have battle ribbons and campaign stars. The Air Medal, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Purple Heart, the Presidential Citation, and the Oak Leaf Clusters are only a few of the medals awarded to ex-Cowboys. But there are hundreds of other Westerners who never receive medals. These boys, whether overseas, or at home, keep the machinery of one of the world,s greatest armies functioning smoothly. While in the States they work hard drilling, practicing with firearms, and learning military science to prepare themselves for overseas duty. These Cowboy service men do not complain of the mud and rain of Italy, the cold in Iceland, the fog of England, the fever-laden jungles of the seven seas. An untold number of other boys have given their lives or are prisoners in a Nazi or Japanese concentration camp. These fighters seldom receive medals or any other recognition, but nevertheless, they are the true heroes. We do not know how many have been killed, or how many will be killed, but we do know that when the last shot is fired, hundreds of boys, boys who once walked the halls of West, will be lying upon foreign soil in graves bearing no identification other than an unknown American soldier. To honor these boys and girls who were once a part of West, we, the Class of '44, reserve this page in our annual. In this way, small as it is, we proudly hail those who are making our Democracy live on AS TIME GOES BY. 'k'k'k'k'k Lc1.3 rox.-, KG -I-Oz. +4415 CAT SAM .HILL S Time Goes By, we stu- dents of West could ask for no better person to remem- ber than our principal Mr. Hill. He has been at our side for four years, and in that time we have never seen him when he was not the friend and confidant of each and every student. We have felt his guidance through times when we have made mistakes, and we have always felt that what- ever his decisions they would be sin- cere and honestly just. Perhaps we really never appreciate just what a principal does for his students until we have graduated and begin to realize what life is like. During the years Mr. Hill has been at West, he has helped hundreds of students to become oriented to life as they found it after their school days. Once, Mr. Hill you said to us . . . You will find that in West High School a spirit of friendliness, help- fulness, and co-operation prevails to a marked extent. We shall remem- ber that, - As Time Goes By, and we shall know that that spirit could prevail only because of your sincerity, actions, and faith. We shall, As Time Goes By, ap- preciate everything, Mr. Hill, while we acknowledge your kindness and helpfulness, your friendliness and co- operation now, we shall, even more, in the years to come. Again, we thank you, Mr. Hill. PRINCIPAL PAL WILF ORD H. WOODY Assistant Principal ATE last fall, Mr. Wilford Woody was appointed to succeed Mr. Howard Johnson in the position of Assistant Principal of West High School. Al- though we shall remember Mr. Woody for the excel- lent worlc he is doing, we cannot let the opportunity go by without also thanking Mr. Johnson for the equally superb job that he did in his years in West. Mr. Woody is known for his unlimited energy, and his marvelous trait of always taking on difficult and tiresome jobs which no one else wants. This year, be- sides his regular duties as Assistant Principal he con- tinued as coach of the basketball team, supervised pro- gram changing, radio room control, and entered many other activities that required much of his extra time. We are honored, Mr. Woody, to be the first class of the first year in which you became our Assistant Prin- cipal. And we shall recognize in future years the fact that there is no one more capable than you to help govern West High and its many students. We wish you luck, Mr. Woody, As Time Goes By. 1-HLDEGARD s. SWEET Dean of Girls NE of the most sincere and friendly persons in West is Mrs. Sweet, our Dean of Girls. Most of the boys do not have the opportunity to meet her, but all who know her agree that a more under- standing and sympathetic person could not be found for this position. Mrs. Sweet is delightfully pleasant to everyone, and during the four years that we seniors have been in West, we have never heard her spealc harshly or un- kindly to anyone. Her sincere desire to accomplish, coupled with her genial personality and sweet manner has established a deep respect for her here at West, and it is often said that if ever a person lived up to her name, Mrs. Sweet is that one. When we leave West this June, Mrs. Sweet, we want you to feel that As Time Goes By and we recall those who have made our life pleasant, your name will be among the Hrst in the thoughts of all of us. We lcnow that you will continue in your helpful, inconspicuous way of malcing sad people happy, and mad people glad. 9 F CULTY HROUGH the school day, each Westerner attends six different classes usually under six different teachers. In the class rc the faculty does not limit class work and discussions to the routine academic subjects, but its members teach the lessons of lessons which will help the graduate. One lesson of life is learning to use self-government. The West faculty expects and applies the practice of democracy everyday work. To a large extent students are allowed to choqse the units they wish to study, and many permit student in classes graduated to their abilities. In every class the teacher attempts to malce , . . . the student realize his place in the society of the world. The necessity of a planned occupation, at high morals, and a sound standard of living in keeping with the individual's income are stressed. The job of the faculty is not easy, and the members of the Senior Class leave Q West with sincere gratitude in their hearts 4' toward the teachers of West whose influence ' 5 will always be felt. - JAMES AANDAHL DON ALLEN MARY ARDREY ELI General Education Art General Education Psychology English LLOYD BAILEY HELEN U.

Like Dan, she maintained a high scholastic record. The Christmas Capers Dance was largely brought about through her efforts. Marjory was also the secretary of the Inter-School Council. MARY LOU PURSELL Secretary The duties of being secretary fell to admirable Mary Lou Pursell. Everyone agrees that a more able person could not have been found than Mary Lou, and she has proved that no matter what the situation, she is always on hand to lend help. She has been re- liable in attending meetings, and competent in preparing minutes and the Senior Class extends its vote of thanks to Mary Lou, secretary extraordinary. BETTY LEE LIVINGSTON Treasurer Dark-haired Betty Lee Livingston was chosen to fill the office of treasurer, and the successful performance of these duties has increased her former popularity. Betty is known for her efficiency and sincerity, and because of them she won the coveted office of treasurer of the Senior Class. She had a large job indeed when it became necessary for her to supervise the collection of senior dues. Our gratitude to Betty Lee!

All of us e that he has done a fine job in fulfilling his duties as Senior Class President. During years that Vas has been at West, he has made many friends both in athletics and in social field. He is known for his happy-go-lucky smile, and his silent but firm way going about a job. His sincere wish to accomplish has led him from one job to another.

JACK STOLTZ Head Boy ack of all Trades Stoltz led the destiny of West through the semester as head boy. jack was capable of many jobs. In addition to assemblies, he served as an auctioneer in a bond sale, he wrote scripts, and carried the lead in the All School Show. He also over the Student Council. ARLENE DOLEZAL Secretary S Honors this time to shy Arlene Dolezal for her interest in this her Senior Class. Arlene was chosen Secretary of the Senior Class, and she has accomplished much as a member of the executive board of Seniors. She was elected to fill the ptasltiolrg hecause she is a friend to all, and her quiet manner speaks of her love of doing a jo we EUGENE LEVIN Treasurer We all know Eugene. Eugene knows us all. There isn't a name in the Senior Clvass that hasnlt at one time or another become familiar to hawk-eyed Eugene, editor of the Rodeo. It has been his guidance in balancing the senior budget that has coped with and solved the problems that 4 treasurer often meets. Yes, Eugene, you and others like you are the kind of people that make a class really tick. I5 SENIOR CLASS The senior class of 1944 decided to express its very special events like the assembly, class party, prom, annual, and graduation under the single theme, Q'As Time Goes Byf, For years, we have enjoyed the many privileges that Skirts. West has offered it, and since first entering in September 1940, we seniors have striven continually to be an excel- lent class scholastically as well as a record breaking friendly class. During our stay at West we have had many good times under the leadership of our class spon- sors, headed by Mrs. Mary Murray, chairman, Miss Margie Setvin, Miss Demetrius Van Landingham, Mrs. Grace Har- relson, Mrs. Frances Moore, Mr. Stewart Walton, and Mrs. Rob- ert Thibodeau.

The tenth graders presented their assembly in the late winter, and they held their class party on November 19. The class entered into other activities with much enthusiasm and showed that they were one of the top classes in West.

We are proud to be able once again to publish such a book, and those of us on the staff wish especially to thank Miss Margie Setvin, our faculty sponsor, for all of the advice and supervision she 'has given to us. It would be impossible to name all those who at some time or another have had a part in making this Annual possible, so we will extend our sincere vote of thanks to any and everyone who had a part in its making. Among those who have done outstanding work is this group of teachers and students: Miss Lorena Hocking for copy reading, Mrs. Josephine Blose, faculty business adviser, Mr. Don Allen and his art staff, Mr. James Aandahl for distribution of Annuals, and Mr. Stewart Walton for student ticket sales.

Sometimes, ecause of war-time restrictions, it was impossible to follow all the plans made by the staff, ut somehow, these problems were all solved and the one hope of the staff is that this book or the class of '44 will meet the requirements of all, and will be cherished as one of their any memories of their class. We have given this book the title As Time Goes By, because we could thinlc of no ther phrase that told so well what the Annual will represent in the future. We hope that ' ' ' 'F h ' ncl that the Annual of 1944 ith this in mind, you agree that we have made a w1..e c oice, a ill mean more and more to all of us As Time Goes By.

Its readers have enjoyed the sports, 'ite romances, and the accomplishments of West as a school, and as individuals. Each issue carried an alumni column filled with news of the West boys and girls in service. This column was the favorite of former Cowboys who received the Rodeo while they were in the United States. An interesting fact is that the Rodeo operated with a staff smaller than the staff of any other Denver high school. It was also one of the two senior high papers to sell for five cents. Eugene Levin edited the school paper both semesters. Miss Lorena Hocking sponsored the journalistic features, and lNliss lhlabel Ford handled the business end. The paper was again printed at the West Side Hustler. sv-'1 .ft JEAN MARTIN EUGENE Feature Editor Sports MURIEL WOODWARDDORIS Typist ff' EVEI.

The United States has great need of young citizens with character and de- termination, and so these westerners in National Honor will surely give their coun- try the same loyalty and devotion they have given our school. Only ten per cent of the Senior class is eligible, and though scholarship is not the only quality stressed, a candidate must have a BU average. Members are then voted on by the faculty, and by old mem- bers. Students chosen for membership must be in the upper ten per cent of their class with regard to scholarship and must be recognized leaders in school activities. The initials C.S.L.S. determine the code of the club, C is for Characterg Sn is for Service to the schoolg LD is for Leadership in school affairs, and S is for Scholarship. This is the alphabet of the National Honor Society. The officers of the West chapter are Mrs. Elizabeth Babcock, sponsorg Eugene Levin, presidentg Evelyn Vawter, secretary- treasurer. bi LAVERNE BINFORD ROBERT A CUMIVIINS BETTY DANIEL EVA GIBSON ,R x x 5 x 1 Q A .

These boys have the oppor- tunity to advance more readily in the regular Army than others for this reason. The need for the R. O. T. C. training during times of peace was stressed for the making of better citizens. In these times the need for better citizens is still great, but overshadowed by the need for boys skilled in military science. And military science is exactly what the Cowboy cadets are taught. Drilling is not the only corps activity. Ir has regular periods of class where students are trained in map-reading, military history, army customs and 'all other things related to army life. The cadets also gain proficiency in handling a rifle.

The Cowboys won twelve matches and lost four. They beat Manual and North each 4-Cl, won from East 3-l, but lost to South 3-I in the tinal and championship match of the year. Wayne Moss and Dick jones gained all-city honors by finishing the season undefeated. Mr. Robert W. Thibodeau replaced Mr. Dick Horton as coach this year. SWIMMING ROW TWO: ,laclc Ballmer, Don Ferguson, Bill Kennedy, Mr. Hotton. Coach, Ledford Tull. ROW ONE: Bob Smith, Paul Morris, Bob Schultz, Captain, Sidney Edwards, Milton Painter. Swimmers from each high school met at the public bathhouse on Saturday, March 4, for the city meet to decide the swimming champion- ship of the Denver Prep League. West fell into last place, and for the second year in succession, South High's Rebels won the swimming championship. Under the leadership of Bob Schultz our small but capable team tried its best to win for West High School, the swimming championship of the league, an honor which has been held for seventeen out of the nineteen with the exception of past years by East High School. TENNIS ROW TWO: Art Zinn, Norman Tower, Mr, Thibodeau, Coach, Maurice Drake, Stanley Schwartz. ROW ONE: Eugene Levin, Irwin Horwitz, Bob Shapiro, Daniel Aks, Eugene McAdoo. The Tennis season began September l5, and in spite of the fact that football was the then predominant sport, tennis was one of the first athletic events to get under way. Although our team was rather inexperienced, with only twelve members, and in spite of the fact that we lost all but one match, we hope to have a larger, more experienced team next year. Under the leadership ot' Arr Zinn, elected Captain, the team held on to the last and played ilzs best, Orchids to a team. game to the last, and good sports in defeat as well as in victory.

The Cowboys, working under a new coach, Mr. Lindsay Keeler, took third place in the city league and fifth in the state meet. Ely Barr and Gordon Flieger gained all-state berths: and Vas Arapkilis, Stanley Schwartz, and Gordon Flieger made the all-city team. Vas Arapkilis was elected captain at the close of the season in February. Many juniors are returning and indications point to another good year in '45. 77 SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL ROW THREE: Marvin Schwindr, Ronald Wells, Jack Mann, Mr Thilbodeau, Coach, Don Codner, Harold Family.

Though short on ability, the Soph Football team never stopped try- ing, and showed plenty of varsity material although suffering four defeats. The yearlings this year were coached by Mr. R. W. Thibodeau. and Mr. Wilford H. Woody. Again this year the Freshmen organized their own team and scrimmaged the Sophomores. The Frosh played the Red Shields, champs of the Young American League, and won by several touchdowns. North, whose team was comparable to the varsity, walked away with the Sophomore title.

'XVI W' The 1943 edition of the West baseball team-finished the season without a win. The team, composed mostly of Sophomores and Juniors, flashed its best hrand of play at the beginning o the year and at the end. During mid-season the Cowboys suffered their worst defeats. East and North, who tied each other for the title, dominated the all city team. West failed to place a player on the first team, but Hal Cooper, who was chosen captain, gained a second team berth at catch. 78 A few years ago, track was considered by Cowboys just another minor sport. The team this year, though, showed definite signs of improve- ment, and such players as Marion Philip us, Bob Cummins and Louis Imrovich were those who helped lay the fbundation for better teams tof come. Under the tutelage of Coach Harvey Riddle, the team with only eleven lettermen and fourteen inexperienced boys, began equipping them- selves with necessary materials early in the season. Few people realize that Track is really a number of sports in one. Such events as hurdling, pole vaulting, high jump and the shot put, as well as discus throwing, mile and half mile runs, and javelin and broad jumps are some of the many things that a track man trains for. I GIRLS SPCJRTS girls than in previous years have participated this year in the sports activities, which are offered by the physical education division, however, this is not due to lack of interest, but rather to the fact that many of the girls are working after school to relieve , the shortage of help problems which has been especially noticeable, this year. Many of the girls deserve recognition for their participation in ff- V, M the minor sports, such as bowling, stunts, swimming, ice-skating, and - 4 1 ' . roller-skating. - -' ' Those who take part in any of the sports mentioned above may, if they enter as sophomores, receive their big ND, after earning 750 points. If they enter as freshmen they must earn 1000 points in order to receive the big D award. In either' case 250 extra points are needed for a gold D pin.

The sands of time have drifted W through the hourglass, and we must now say goodby to our high school career. Throughout our years at West we have made many friends among the faculty and student body. Perhaps we shall never again see some of them, but their influence and presence will always be .with us. We shall all contribute to the making of a better postwar world. Some of us will continue our education, some of us will get jobs, to bring about ' victory, and to reconstruct war-torn nations. A number of us will enter some branch of the armed forces, and others will take the important step of marriage and establishing a home. But now, nothing more can be said. We wish to thanlc West and its faculty for fine training, and bid so-long to each other, hoping that we will meet again As Time Goes By? Z' l s . . 2-: 2:1-. iv . are 'yr xii -6 221:- '.:..- ir?
