NICK GREGORY President Nick Gregory took over the job of being Senior president with the same sort of will and initiative that he used in handling the wide variety of other jobs that ave been his, His friendly ways, his ever present originality, and his all around personality are just some of the things for which we will remem- ber the second Senior president of the Class of '46. FRANCES H ICKS Vice President Vice presidents seldom do anything, so the job was an easy one to fill, but Frances Hicks found work to do and did even more than was demanded of her. An outstanding member of each of the many clubs which list her as a member, Frances lived up to the ideals which many aim for but few succeed in reaching. Georgia Woelbing Georgia Woelbing Head Girl has never been known to slip up on the job, everyone who knows her, whether student or teacher, can testify to that. During the period that she has been at West, she has set her sights, kept to the line, and arrived at the target in the best of fash- ion. Positions of lead- ership have been hers all along the road, and all of their responsibilities have been met in the right manner SECOND SEMESTER CLASS OFFICERS Bruce Earhart Head Boy Great efforts di- rected in the right places usually mean success, and in Bruce Earhart's case there was no exception to the rule. Ever since coming to West, Bruce has followed the trail that has led to the highest posi- tion in the school- head boy. The run of the mill type of person never climbs that high. Rounding out a school career of leadership and citi- zenship combined with other favorable virtues, Bruce has set the pace for those to follow. JU N E BURKY Secretary June Burky is known by everyone as one of those who possesses the three V's-vim, vigor, and vitality. Giggling her way through thick and thin, June has been one of the secretaries who are different-just different: she is the kind of person that says hello to those she knows on days when elections aren't held. SHIRLEY STEPHENSON Treasu rer Talent, personality, and a friendly attitude are mixed together in the right proportions by Shirley Stephen- son, who sang her way into the office of treasurer one election morning. Shirley must be mad about money, because she has held the position of treasurer in more than one of the school clubs., ,

MARY WISTCOX Secretary V Witty and wise and everything nice is our secretary of the Senior Class, Mary Wistcox. We all agree that a more capable person than Mary could not have been found to do the task of keeping the books and minutes of our class. Mar is always ready to lend a helping hand, in a most pleasant way and iilled her position successfully. JORENE GROVER Treasurer Honors to Jorene Grover for her keen interest in the Senior Class. Jorene was chosen treasurer of the Senior Class and has really helped to make it a success, She handled the job of col- lecting Senior dues in a capable way and we, the Lights of '46, wish to express our gratitude to Jorene for do- ing her work and doing it well. Head. Girl Dorothy Hoglund Lovely to look at and nice to be with is our first semester head girl, Dorothy Hoglund. Dot served on various commit- tees, some of which are lnter - School Council, Finance and Assembly. If our lunchroom and hall conditions lagged, Dot was right there, doing everything possible to improve them. Dorothy, with her sweet and cor- dial manner, kept the friendship and admiration of all un- derclassmen as well as of Seniors. FIRST SEMESTER CLASS OFFICERS Jack Rudey Jack Rudey served Head Boy West during the first semester as a capable and willing head boy. Not only outstanding as a leader, but a hustling back on the football squad and wrestling team was our shy and bashful Jack. As head boy, Jack had a real job to do, lead- ership to establish by example, and to promote the spirit of friendliness. We are all proud of the work Jack has accomplished, espe- cially since we list him as one of our newcomers to West High. BILL BURBANK President Our first semester Senior President was tall, lanky and we might add polite Bill Burbank. Bill is one of those boys who can be depended on at any time and anywhere that he is needed. In ad- dition to being a very capable officer he served well on the football and bas- ketball teams. During the years that Bill hashbeen at West, he has made many friends both in athletics and in the sociel field. MARIE MCDONALD Vice President A super personality characterizes red- haired, good looking Marie McDonald, Vice President of the Senior Class. Marie, known for her ability to accom- plish anything she starts, assisted the president in every possible way. There was nothing that was put before her which she could not undertake, and she managed both the work of the vice- presidency and one-half of the Annual art work with ease and speed.
